Back in MY day, if you wanted to run a MLM scam (like Amway or Herbalife) you had to actually WORK at it...at least a little bit. ;)

I am shedding no tears for the fools that fall for this stuff and the fools that promote it.

Tom Brady was paid with an equity stake and didn’t really “lose” anything. He also has a deal for announcing, upon retirement, for 10 years - $375 million.

Gisele was also in the commercials for FTX so if he is guilty, so is she. Her net worth is $400 million.
Brady is listed at $250 million.

Personally I don’t think they should be held liable for anything.
They were taken, same as many.

Slim’s first rule of investing. By the time I’ve heard of an “opportunity”, all the real money has already been made.

The downside of Bitcoin is the entire ecosystem of scams and hoaxes (shit coins, NFTs, DeFi) that took advantage of Bitcoin success and public gullibility. Finally it looks like the scams are folding.

Bitcoin is the shark and fiat is the fat chick who can’t swim fast enough. Everything else is seaweed.

Old story. Conman get their scheme endorsed by celebs, politicians, company execs. In turn these spokesmen fail to disclose they are being paid to endorse a product.
