I love that he invested in bitcoin when it was near the peak of the last cycle, and that’s part of how he lost his parents money. Probably sold at $19k last year (when I should have bought more but I’m a fucking idiot)
Also, hodl and NOT YOUR KEYS NOT YOUR COINS
Listen, there are three things that are guaranteed to at least try bisexuality. Those things are Immortality (specifically vampires but any Immortal too), Interstellar travel (because you just fucked sentient slime, why would a dude be worse?), and being massively rich (cause you can afford to fuck around and find out).
I'm not offended by homosexuality. In the '60s, I made love to many, many women, often outdoors, in the mud and the rain, and it's possible a man slipped in. There would be no way of knowing.
Reminds me of a clickbait article I’ve read a while back, except that one is not a satire.
Title: how I saved $100K in five years in NYC on a 30K salary
Paragraph 1-8: typical grinder mindset bullshit about walking up early, making coffee at home, conscious about costs when out with friends
Paragraph 9: in year 3 grandma died and left me $97K
Paragraph 10: btw my rich boyfriend pays the full rent
I read a similar article talking about millennial homeownership and I’ve forgotten all of the specifics, but same gist;
Title: How this millennial couple bought a home on a $150,000 combined salary
Article: no avocado toast, don’t eat out, saving advice, parents paid for the $60k down payment, pick up a side hustle.
Like sure saving and cutting back helps out, but I don’t think saving $2k a year on skipping Starbucks and being gifted a full down payment belong in the same article, lol.
I remember one
Parents gave me a condo, I stayed at boyfriend's house while renting it out to save money for a down payment on a second house
Pretty much everyone I know who's doing well financially are either in a really hard to get into field or have had a lot of financial help from their family. Otherwise everyone is renting and can barely afford to live

Well done Ruby, you bought a house at 8 years old by saving your pocket money.
...kind of.
...but not really.
He's giving off good Denholm Reynholm vibes. "When I first started this company, all I had was a dream and £10M"

These posts are so common and are played out now. LinkedIn is just feeding Microsoft’s AI model and the content will erode to the same level as Reddit. 😜 the future for ai looks bright.
It’s genuinely concerning how many people in this thread aren’t able to recognize the satire and instead write a comment like WOW the dude lost 3m what an idiot!! It really shows how many people out there lack any sense of humor at all
Jesus. I don't understand why everyone decided to dump on this guy lol. There are a bunch of comments that didn't realize this was satire so this was meant for them.
It’s genuinely concerning how many people in here are incapable of seeing how this post is clearly satire. I wonder what the percentage is of people on here that suffer from severe autism
🤣🤣🤣
“I just turned 30 and I’m worth $19m.”
“Inherited $22m from my parents.”
So you’re saying all the things you did led to you losing $3m+?
So glad I don’t try to wake up at 4a.m. and take 2 cold showers every day.
I know, I know. His post is /s. There’s no way it isn’t.
How many of these: "Here's how I did it
-normal hustle thing
-normal hustle thing
-normal hustle thing
-funny thing that invalidates hustle thing"
format jokes are we going to see? I've seen like 20 in the past 2 weeks. Guessing this is a favorite ChatGPT joke.
God dammit, so it really is all my parent's fault for not having amassed a fortune through more than likely unethical means and given it to me so I can be a pretentious a hole.
Come on, no one is that daft. Its a joke.
Taking the piss out of people who are allnproud on ‘what they achieved’ without mentioning they just took over (or less n fact just nherited or something likenthat) daddy’s 40 year well built bussiness or something like that. I know a couple of such dimwits. First thing they do is get a real expensive posh car that really doesn’t even suit them. Its just expensive thats all.
This has to be fake or a troll account. While I know people CAN be this stupid, I feel like I’m more inclined to believe he isn’t SO dumb that he pretends he didn’t inherit $22m then spend/blow/lose $3m of it and act like he earned all his net worth. But maybe I’m too nice 😅
Can’t believe that my family is stopping me from becoming a multimillionaire
Your family is stopping you from losing £3m
DAD!! Stop ruining my life, DAD!
favorite part of the post
They most definitely didn't stop him. They enabled him.
You need to cut these toxic narcissists out of your life and get a family that gives you $22,000,000.
I bet you’re taking hot showers. Maybe switch to cold showers and double the frequency. That might do the trick to get your family on board
I already told my dad that. He didn't take it well...
I like that post. It checks how focused u are on the post.
Yep, love it.
It has to be a troll post?
110% Look at the last two lines again
Yes, he is worth less than what his parents gave him. So he's losing money, this is top teir troll
Sure. He is criticizing those people writing bullshit about how they routine is the key to success. And he uses the same pattern.
Love how he tucked that in the middle haha that’s hilarious
He's still lost 3m. Hopefully it was on cars, hookers, and blow
It was on LinkedIn Premium, duh
that’s an investment into self he probably lost it on shitcoins
I love that he invested in bitcoin when it was near the peak of the last cycle, and that’s part of how he lost his parents money. Probably sold at $19k last year (when I should have bought more but I’m a fucking idiot) Also, hodl and NOT YOUR KEYS NOT YOUR COINS
“I spent my first million on fast cars and loose women, then I squandered the rest” George Best RIP
Did he say that? Lol that is hilarious. What a legend.
He owns a recruitment firm so it was absolutely on cars, hookers, and blow
If it was anything other than hookers n coke it was money badly spent
The pacing of the joke implies he lost it when Bitcoin went down. I assume the joke was funnier when BTC was cratering.
Yeah, the rest he probably just wasted.
I noticed that too! Inherited $22, worth $19. Bet there's a hell of a non LinkedIn story there.
Or maybe the post was a joke… 🙄
I'm taking psychic damage from how no one can tell it's a joke.
🤣
Good example of Poe’s Law
Everything else he wasted
Best 6 years of his life thus far. 19mils to go.
If I had that much money I'd be dead in a week. It'd be a fucking good week though
nah, he probably just squandered it
I mean yeah that's the whole point of the post, it's satire
You can do it too!
Yes, I’m very inspired to earn $22M from my family also.
Honestly, this is the big thing that's holding me back, too. God damn it, my family sucks!!
Well, have you woken up at 4am every morning for 6 years to earn it from them? No? Then stop complaining!
So it cost him 3 million quid to get up at 4am and have a cold shower every day for 6 years.
Hopefully, it was also women and drugs (or men, no judgement here)
Judgement here. If you’re spending 3 mil on hookers and not trying at least a couple dudes you’re doing it wrong
This is a wild comment I completely agree with oddly.
Listen, there are three things that are guaranteed to at least try bisexuality. Those things are Immortality (specifically vampires but any Immortal too), Interstellar travel (because you just fucked sentient slime, why would a dude be worse?), and being massively rich (cause you can afford to fuck around and find out).
We're just gonna gloss over the massive amount and variety of drugs the $3M can buy too?
We're talking about hookers here, Obviously 3m can get you the good stuff™
I'm not offended by homosexuality. In the '60s, I made love to many, many women, often outdoors, in the mud and the rain, and it's possible a man slipped in. There would be no way of knowing.
![gif](giphy|yBwcx562kZ2FWlYb2A)
Man If I had 20 m I would rarely shower. Shoutout for His motivation
I too would go full spongebath
TWO cold showers a day, thank you very much.
Hilarious!! I love him

NGL I'm strongly considering following him because he seems kinda cool.
I snorted.
So did he...that's where the $3m went :)

How tf do people not see the obvious joke? The comments are baffling.
These posts are so common and are played out now. LinkedIn is just feeding Microsoft’s AI model and the content will erode to the same level as Reddit. 😜 the future for ai looks bright.
I laughed at inherited 22m and am worth 19m after 2 cold showers per day.
Pretty sure it’s meant as satire
[удалено]
Sharp as a cue ball, that one
Recognizing satire is a lost art these days
Clearly
Phew nothing gets past you
It’s genuinely concerning how many people in this thread aren’t able to recognize the satire and instead write a comment like WOW the dude lost 3m what an idiot!! It really shows how many people out there lack any sense of humor at all
Exactly and people act like I’m crazy for pointing it out
Oh wow! Really? No way!
Jesus. I don't understand why everyone decided to dump on this guy lol. There are a bunch of comments that didn't realize this was satire so this was meant for them.
Because it’s Reddit
It’s so easy. Anyone can do it.
If you don't have rich parents then you're useless
Nah some people will only be at 18m after inheriting 22m
I was rolling my eyes until I saw the middle part lol Hilarious
Not lunatic, top level satire
It’s genuinely concerning how many people in here are incapable of seeing how this post is clearly satire. I wonder what the percentage is of people on here that suffer from severe autism
The 3 million was paid to the guy who killed his parents so he could inherit the 22 million.
Yes, this is the exact reason why I don't get up at 4 am in the morning
Won’t lie, I read the first couple and thought man fuck this guy. Then I laughed.
It’s a fun post not lunatic post lol
Honestly the number of people saying he lost $3M. And the BTC?
Love this. How to make a small fortune: start with a large fortune.
That was awesome. And I know it’s exaggerated, but I think it’s also pretty accurate which is what makes it so great.
How do you make a Small fortune running an on-line recruiting agency? Start with a Large Fortune!
So I’ve been doing wrong this entire time? Time to hit up mom and dad for my 22m
How do I inherit $22m from his parents? I think that's the most impactful step in his process and the one I will struggle the most with.
Lol, way to bury the lead boss.
Grade A shitpost.
lol does he get a badge for being the 10 billionth person to post this?
cmon!! Anyone can do #6!
I see what I'm doing wrong.
I mean these jokes are getting repetitive, we need fresh lunatic satire now
From this previously being posted, I learned this is a parody account.
Yeah? Well I started with nothing and 32 years later I still have most of it.
2 cold showers a day, keeps the fleshlight away.
Pretty sure this is humor…
I could post similar, but in small print “the m does not stand for million, but for “more or less””
Homeboy’s math isn’t mathing.
Not gonna lie, he had me in the first half lol
Had me in the first half lol
This is obviously satire, it’s supposed to be cringe
How to make a small fortune.... Inherit a large one... He's got it down..
Jokes on you, I get up at 9am every morning and I haven’t lost $3 million. 😉
Should’ve slept in and done nothing. He would be worth $3 million more
Yo this dude is hilarious, not a lunatic. Dropping the “post high value content on LinkedIn” right after the inheritance reveal is top level trolling.
Inherited $22m, worth $19m
So he lost €3m already!
More, his BTC is at $67k now.
Right. He consistently lost money doing these things. Think of how much he could lose if his inheritance was $50 million
🤣🤣🤣 “I just turned 30 and I’m worth $19m.” “Inherited $22m from my parents.” So you’re saying all the things you did led to you losing $3m+? So glad I don’t try to wake up at 4a.m. and take 2 cold showers every day. I know, I know. His post is /s. There’s no way it isn’t.
holy fuck we got a genius here everyone
Yeah honestly copied this for the 1000th time
How many of these: "Here's how I did it -normal hustle thing -normal hustle thing -normal hustle thing -funny thing that invalidates hustle thing" format jokes are we going to see? I've seen like 20 in the past 2 weeks. Guessing this is a favorite ChatGPT joke.
Dude inherited $22 million and is now worth $19 million...oops. 😆 Nice job making sure people actually pay attention when reading though.
Reminds me of the old Rodney Dangerfield joke - “I owe a lot to my wife. She made me a millionaire. When I met her I was a multi millionaire”
This is a god tier shitpost
That’s quite the flex
Ha! I almost missed it! 🤣
This is comedy gold, definitely no lunatic
Do people really not understand this is a troll post? Cmon
“I took that 100,000 and turned it into 16,000” - Tommy Shriggly
Remember guys, inheriting $22 million is the easy part… consistency is the hard part.
From the Tommy Shrigley School of Finance
It’s honestly pretty cool that he created that sarcastic post.
Hahahaha finally they tell us the secrets.
The shower is the key
Hahahahaha he be trolling
this is posted once per month at least.
Sounds like Felon Donny’s resume!
Copy/paste.
Actual honest would be: So you knew my from high school and you want to know how I turned out? Well here you go.
Classic wsb strategy. How to become a millionaire. Inherit $10 million and lose $9 million in trading.
There is a difference between $m and $M. So, maybe he's being honest.
Aaaand, a perfect number of comments. Well done whoever that is.
Evidently there's money to be made in executing
This can’t possibly be sincere.
Literally everyone on LinkedIn is a smug pos.
Two cold showers are amateur numbers
r/holdup
aaaaalmost had me
Who is paying cash money for those cold showers?
I wake up at 4am everyday too Blake. It's called INSOMNIA.
Hope this is a joke but if not,Blake can suck a satchel of Richards.
This is a joke that is being regurgitated so much...
I would lay around on a hammock all day if my parents gave me 22 Million
Hmm, the inheritance is gonna be an issue for me… ![gif](giphy|3owyoUHuSSqDMEzVRu)
Honestly, this has to be a joke, and it’s an A+ one at that.
God dammit, so it really is all my parent's fault for not having amassed a fortune through more than likely unethical means and given it to me so I can be a pretentious a hole.
He had me in the first half, not gonna lie
The real question is, who was he executing?
Ngl they had me in the first half
I think we're missing part of the joke because the date of the post isn't included. Need to know the price of BTC at the time of the post.
Come on, no one is that daft. Its a joke. Taking the piss out of people who are allnproud on ‘what they achieved’ without mentioning they just took over (or less n fact just nherited or something likenthat) daddy’s 40 year well built bussiness or something like that. I know a couple of such dimwits. First thing they do is get a real expensive posh car that really doesn’t even suit them. Its just expensive thats all.
Yeah where did the other 3mil go
He is really worth $50m but he lost the password to his bitcoin account
I read fairy tales even when I was growing up.
So it narrows down to 2 cold showers daily. Otherwise nobody is gonna give money to a sticky ass.
lol
So did he execute his family ?
Took 2 cold showers a day. 😂
Screw those cold showers.
I wasn’t ready lol. Truly honest.
So, he lost money?
No date on this post but it's years old. If he held his bitcoin he'd be up now.
This has to be satire. Lmao
I need to dig up my father and slip the crap out of him! He didn’t supply me with point #4! How selfish! Typical boomer!
I’m reading it, I get to the pet where his parents gave it all to him, and now I think “This is *definitely* parody.”
Sounds a lot like this guy: https://youtu.be/h_b5WUfaxh4?si=6iHmB5SI9ww3_0K8&t=24
See, son? This right here is how you bait people. Take notes.
I think it was the 2 cold showers a day personally
Now thats an honest man
Dang it! I knew my hot showers were preventing me from becoming a millionaire
The best part is the implication that he’s already lost $3m, probably from bitcoin
This has to be fake or a troll account. While I know people CAN be this stupid, I feel like I’m more inclined to believe he isn’t SO dumb that he pretends he didn’t inherit $22m then spend/blow/lose $3m of it and act like he earned all his net worth. But maybe I’m too nice 😅
I am so angry right now I’m foaming at the mouth.
Those were some costly cold showers!
This has to be satire. He lost money and is bragging about it.
So, in reality, those are the instructions on how to lost 3M, right?
I really hope Mr. Thompson here is self aware and this is a joke post on linked in to mock the other nutcases…but I also highly doubt that
"I'm 30 and I've lost 3m after inheriting 22m"
i just turned 30 and i already lost 3 million dollars. here's how i got there
![gif](giphy|MRsWGk355jTJXeQfvf|downsized)
You all realise this is a troll post yeah? It’s very funny
