Interesting, I wonder how he did earn his livlihood??? Obviously he was winning large numbers of poker tournaments, or else we’d have heard about it; however, travelling around the world to play in poker tournaments could be excellent cover for other, less legal, activities, plenty of which could provide money.

There was speculation on the O’Reilly Factor tonight about that. Possible drug dealing or some other lucrative criminal activity. I know his family was sorta well off, but I don’t think there was enough to support his jet-set lifestyle.

Also, he might have been into human trafficking. There was the video of him trying to recruit women. I would not put blackmail past him. Whatever, he seems not to be lacking for money.

His dead father was a wealthy man, and so he probably had a significant inheritance. He also is an experienced drug dealer, apparently a good poker player and also the kind of person who is likely to get "comped" on account of his notoriety by other jaded hedonists who admire him.

The wealthy and notorious are generally very good at getting other people to buy them dinner, get them free hotel rooms, lend them expensive cars and pay their airfare.

If you have no conscience, everyone you know is a pigeon.

Saw one item saying he spent time in Tahiland recruiting young girls for prostitution in Europe.
