TechLead Scammed You With Million Token (as a millionaire)

It's worse than you think...
According to Techlead: Million is a decentralized digital currency with a limited supply of 1,000,000 tokens pegged to a minimum value of 1.00 $USDC, for a total market cap of 1,000,000+ $USDC. Million was founded by ex-Google / ex-Facebook Tech Lead with over 1,000,000 subscribers on KZbin (as a millionaire).

This video is an opinion and in no way should be construed as statements of fact. Scams, bad business opportunities, and fake gurus are subjective terms that mean different things to different people. I think someone who promises $100K/month for an upfront fee of $2K is a scam. Others would call it a Napoleon Hill pitch.

[@JohnSmith-bs9ym]

He's got many, many red flags. I remember him talking about his wife leaving him, and all he talked about was how his wife didn't help him make more money. The whole video was literally just him counting coins. That's when I knew he was probably toxic af in person. And then some time later, he posted videos of him swiping on Tinder, I kid you not. He was saying things like all these girls would have nothing to worry about if they just swiped right. On top of all that, his "course" is complete trash. Expensive and useless. Typical scammer stuff. Even his website looks scammer like. Honestly, how can people be so stupid?

Used to subscribe to TechLead. Really enjoyed his dry humour and tales of tech life in Silicone Valley. His tongue-in-cheek 'I'm better than you' attitude always had me laughing. Until he started to make videos about his wife leaving him. Or, how she expected him to basically treat her with respect, spend time with each other etc. With each new video I realised two things: 1. he was clearly bitter about the whole thing (not surprising) 2. He would say completely inappropriate things about her knowing that their son might one day watch those videos. It just felt like watching someone abuse another person. He has a lot of followers, many from a tech space. Perhaps he wasn't trying to send fans over there to abuse her. But, it really wouldn't have been difficult to work out who she is. Why would you do that to the mother of your child? It made me realise the studied arrogance he displays in his videos really isn't all that studied after all. It's just him. He wasn't being ironic. His behaviour felt narcissistic and appeared to border on misogyny. I unsubscribed. His KZbin personality was too much of a turnoff. And, STILL I'm surprised he would get involved in something like this. Where's your self-respect?

@@michaelellis772 that's what I hate about videos like these and this whole slew of zoomer "investigators". I have already read in the comments that his wife was right to take the kid and that Google and Facebook were right to fire him. A more likely version of events is that after telling people not to gamble and risk their money on crypto, he was seeing the bubble get bigger and bigger. Shitcoins, NFTs, you name it. Finally, he must have said "f it. You want a speculative/gambling vehicle? I'll give it to you". "The market can be irrational longer than you can stay solvent", or in this case "Bubble remained intact longer than he was able to stay sane".

My theory is that the Crypto itself is legit but it needs to be marketed like hell to be noticed and its a cash cow, I mean its literally printing (Minting) money. But to make money purely investing can be hard, harder then it looks. So all these influencers are caught in between. They are probably not making much money, they eventually have influence over so much money so why not cash in on the big money ? When it comes down to it this is all about greed. There is just so much money involved its contagious, its easy to be corrupted.
