lol are we supposed to be impressed with 130k at 31? no one has ever done that
Pretty sure I know who the guy in the article is as well, cross checking with some buddies but positive I know who it is.
Anyway, I don't blame him for his real estate decisions, shit is stupid.
The life he is living will be one of regret in the future though. The "high" will wear off soon, surpringly no mention of a coke habit l e l

I dunno ... it's fun to spend $7k or so on a vacation and not worry too much, but some of the restaurants and wines he mention aren't exactly all-out top tier. (i.e. if I can go to a couple of those restaurants, they're not that baller.)
@ Canadian Tire Options MC...
Welcome to the world of blogging, of hearing those anecdotal stories that were never told... Welcome, to the internets.
I guess he doesn't hang with IBs or DDSs much ... Those are the guys that really rake that paper in. (In my peasantly world at least...)

So I cross checked with my buddy and a middle eastern pharmacist in that age and area of Toronto is a match, but the rest of the story doesn't quite jive...I wonder how much of it is made up above and beyond (like the profession of his "brother" or is that really a cousin because he has a "sister")...so it's inconclusive at this point.

Just finished reading the whole thing.. Dafuq is up with his wood over Rothschild? I have a second wine Rothschild stowed away for a special day, but I don't see it as a bucket list thing ... (Perhaps going to the Rothschild vineyards etc etc etc ...)
I have a buddy popping Ace of Spades and other high-end booze with family over holidays and stuff, but he rakes in enough to support it ongoing... Moet or sparkling wine for my peasant tastebuds is good enough.
The euphoria will be gone when he tries to buy into a pharmacy ... especially when it's in butthole nowhere near GTA (I have a few buddies who are pharm boys; one works in UHN, the other and his wife run a franchise pharm, and contract work for a large retail chain.)
