Anybody watch any of these documentaries? I've only seen the Hulu and Netflix ones. Billy McFarland kind of looks like a tubbier Rex Grossman.

The best way i can summarize it, sculpt, is that a shady young entrepreneur got a lot of people to pay shitloads of money to attend a 3-day festival/concert on a private island in the bahamas and got it sold out using social media. When payers got there, there were just FEMA tents, no musical acts, and no electricity. Mayhem ensues!

Watched both.
Billy is a legit lunatic and genius at the same time. Dude conned that many young adults into buying that luxury lifestyle. But he was so fucking dumb when doing it.

So to sum up, basically a con man got caught and sent to prison and a bunch of people got duped out of a bunch of money. Awesome Job Jah Rule.

I read all about this as it was happening, I am not sure I need to see a documentary about it.

You are very welcome for the information.
Were the documentaries life altering for you in some way? So much so that you have to gush about them with another person that has seen them?

I saw the Netflix one. It’s a good one time watch. The guy is a fucking crook scam artist. I don’t believe for one second he just hit one misfortune after another and that’s why it all fell apart. I think he was just running a ponzi scheme
And LOL at the retards buying the package @those costs just because a model advertised it. There are literally way too many people out there with mush for brains

my thread about these documentaries has obviously upset you. Why don't you go enjoy yourself in another thread and not try to tell people what they can talk or 'gush' about?
'I knew about this because I follow social media influencers on Instagram, so, uh, yeah, all of you, stop talking about it!'

All these words and you couldn't even be bothered to answer my very simple questions... Care to explain?
