I feel ZERO remorse for this clown.

Quit a 6fig job at 22 (this puts him easily in the top earners in his age demographic, especially if he lives in Ohio where shit is dirt cheap) so he can beg a celebrity for a job that the celeb doesn't have because he wants to chase clout?

I was literally laughing as the guy was crying. What a fucking clown.

And he just happened to make a tik tok about it.

Also, people are assuming his has a uni Job at 22.

He prob had his dad hook him up with a cushie ass job and he squandered that shit to go chase internet fame/clout.

Pathetic. Kid is so blessed and fucked it up.

he's 22 so it's reasonable he landed a killer job right out of uni. happens.

Unless his job is in the financial sector in the heart of Manhattan then there's no way he is making that much right out of college

Why on earth would you quit your job without even talking to the guy? So you can put him on the spot and guilt him into giving you money!? This is exceedingly self-centered and cringy af.

bro, what "flaws" are you even talking about??

you mean that he's SOMEHOW a combination of young, making/having used to have made good money, and stupid all at the same time???

-

like, that ^^^ is exactly what i'm talking about

it is somehow just completely unfathomable for you for this guy to be all three of those things, by sole virtue of, what, your "gut feeling and intuition"??

like, nah, dude - you're just unimaginative as fuck, totally and completely


I am actually the guy in that video. I love Logan Paul. I actually lied about the job and friend thing lol. My job pays 30k and I have like 10 whole friends.

Anyway this is checkmate because you now have to blindly believe me or else I will accuse you of being unimaginative as fuck, totally and completely, or you have to admit that believing almost impossible stuff that you read online is stupid as fuck.

Maybe he had his own business, also I edited my post

He could just be simplifying a more complex situation to "I was making 100k"

But yeah it is a weird af video so I'm not about to die on this hill

classic CE

"No one can make $100k out of college!"
"$100k? Must have gotten a job from his dad!"

$100k is absolutely obtainable out of school.

I work with engineers pulling that fresh out of school, and if he's got a year under his belt that could be a 5 figure raise

Plenty of folks in finance doing the same

Its not impossible he got it from nepotism, but this theory is based on nothing at all. CE just really cant handle the concept of success

But yeah that was pretty fucking stupid of him
Why not just take a few days vacation and then quit?
And Paul handled it well

It's not about one particular detail. It's the conglomeration of all these details put together that you can only come to 2 conclusions: this story is full of shit trying to get some social media clout, or this dude is a dumbass of the highest order. I don't see why sympathy needs to be given in either scenario.

I don't see why the two can't be possible at the same time, that he's a colossal dumbass trying to get some clout.

I mean it's definitely possible. But I don't find it hard to believe this doofus is probably lying about having his life so together until very recently.

That's definitely true as well. Although this alleged 100k job isn't something a 22 year old walks away from willy nilly. Either he's lying about how much he makes to increase the impact his message has "oh look at me I quit this high paying job at age 22 in Northern Ohio to chase my dream" or he has connections to back up quitting his job, which would be a lie or an exaggeration about not having any friends or being disconnected from family. I assure you, he didn't release this video that's now gone viral without expecting some kind of give back. And because of people like you and that other guy saying I was unimaginative, he's going to get it most likely through a gofundme or something. All because he cried online through his tiktok about a story that can't be verified or has obvious holes in the story.

And hey, I don't disrespect the hustle. Just don't expect me or anyone else to respect you for making your career as a professional victim for trivial shit.

He clearly wants to be famous and either had the delusion that logan paul was his key to fame or is using this to try and leech some clout. I'm gonna guess it's probably the latter.

One crazy enough to quit a 100k job
One crazy enough to think sneaking into backstage to meet Logan Paul and hope he grants him a job out of nowhere

If he was making six figures at 22, I doubt he cares much. His dad will probably just set him up with another job.
It's not that hard to do given you make the right career decisions early on. And if you're in the right career field

I don't see why sympathy needs to be given in either scenario.

People on GameFaqs are in their 30's. It would have been impossible to nab a 100k job fresh out of college prior to 2010. Nowadays, social media is such a detrminable factor, that it actually drives most tech companies bottom line. There are many jobs tailed to young kids out of college that pay around 75-120k, most of them all involving social media of some type. Its housed under the marketing umbrella.

I hired on an intern while he was in college, and only paid him minimum wage. He managed to graduate Berkeley at age 21. I fudged his job responsibilities and gave him a great LinkedIn reference, which helped him land a 120k User Acquisition role at JamCity. Two years later he was at Nexon, and now he's 26 and making 150k at Coinbase doing UA.

Also, 100k isn't all that much money in Silicon Valley, so cost of living dictates that almost every single entry level job is around the 65-85k range.
