Dan Bilzerian--Living Every Guy's Dream (1 Viewer)

[Steed]

Ever notice how the guys that earn this kind of wealth are usually low key?

 

[MaxThreshold]

"You have a loaded gun in every room of the house, are you preparing for a zombie apocalypse?"

"I have 97 guns, why not have a few laying around the house, ya know?"

What could go wrong?

he doesn't have kids... what's the big deal?

Thinking that could be a bad idea during a big party with lots of people wandering around the house. Don't know, didn't strike me as a brilliant idea.

Guy's living the dream though, would be lying if I said I wasn't jealous.

Yeah. Or when he decides to dump one of his porno babes and she goes bat-#### crazy.

 

[ILUVBEER99]

from what i've read his core money was all from his dad who was a corporate raider in the 80's and made tons of money. He did some time for securities fraud.

His poker money is from high stakes private games with celebrities/wall street guys. I think he even admits he's not very good relative to pro players but against super rich guys chunking off money he wins. There is no way to verify whether he's BS'ing about winning millions in poker, and it probably doesn't matter as he has a ton of money from his trust fund.

 

[eoMMan]

There was an article on him in Bluff magazine a year or two ago. Said he also has a 15 inch schlong.

Bill Bratzky!

 

[Fennis]

seems like a less famous, less rich Kim Kardashian to me.

This is probably pretty spot on. There was a story involving him and A-rod in a private poker game in the news a few years ago.

 

[TxBuckeye]

Would love the money and the freedom that comes with it. Would definitely pass on the lifestyle. Not my thing, but I'm older than a lot of folks in here.

You handwringing women are cute...

I have a loaded gun in about half the rooms in my house and I'll let ya in on a little secret:

They're not out laying in plain sight, in fact... if you were to walk through my house you'd likely never know they're there.

Shhhh... don't tell anyone!

 

[chet]

He looks cut but doesn't strike me as huge. Could someone with knowledge about steroids unpack this?

 

[(HULK)]

I'm insanely jealous. I could pass on the gun stuff, and on having a cat, but otherwise his life is ideal.

I'm just saying that sometimes people don't take getting dumped lightly. It could be a guy or girl and if there is a argument and a gun is laying around...well something COULD happen.

From the pictures I've seen on his site it looks like he has them laying around wherever and not hidden like you do.

 

[James Daulton]

He looks cut but doesn't strike me as huge. Could someone with knowledge about steroids unpack this?

Once you cycle off the roids, you lose mass. Also, he likely doesn't want to be huge, just big and cut. It's hard to be both big and cut as a natty since in order to grow you need to take in excess calories. The body converts some of those calories into muscle, some into fat. Steriods helps with this problem as your body much more efficiently turns calories into muscle rather than fat when you're juicing.

 

[Otis]

10 years ago I wanted that lifestyle. Now I wouldn't. I would, however, like the lack of job and stress and ability to just work on my guns and abs all day.

 

[Quez]

There are roids like deca that are more effective for cutting & looking ripped.

 

[Dentist]

10 years ago I wanted that lifestyle. Now I wouldn't. I would, however, like the lack of job and stress and ability to just work on my guns and abs all day.

If I had that guys money I wouldn't even have the swagger or personality for that type of lifestyle.

Although I agree it would have been infinitely more appealing 10-12 years ago.

But not having to work is an absolute dream... I could care less about the guns, but I'd definitely be into working out, playing poker.... its just that i'd play the poker online and spend my time in isolation on a Caribbean island.. and i'd fish a lot more.

There is no way to verify whether he's BS'ing about winning millions in poker, and it probably doesn't matter as he has a ton of money from his trust fund.

I think he was interviewed in cardplayer earlier this year and called out Ivey and Dwan for going broke. Found it.

Dan Bilzerian dishes on Ivey, Dwan and Degens of PokerIf ever there were a poker player who could rival the Dos Equis guy, it is Dan Bilzerian. For evidence of this, you need merely check Bilzerian’s twitter feed, which features numerous pictures of hot girls, guns, luxury cars and movie appearances.

Given all of the cool things that Bilzerian can and has done, it’s no surprise to hear that his net worth is $100 million. And this puts him in the opposite situation as some world-famous poker players whom he shockingly said were broke. During an interview with CardPlayer, Bilzerian said the following:

Well, it’s kind of a degenerate group. I mean, people who play poker professionally; it kind of takes a special type of person to do that. You have to be able to take a real kick in the nuts, and your life is stressful all the time. It is really hard to be a professional poker player and not go broke. The problem is that when they are winning, they feel like they are going to continue winning at the same rate and when they are losing they want to win their money back. Also, once you play big it’s really hard to drop down in stakes.

Bilzerian went on to say that Tom Dwan and Phil Ivey have gone broke. Of course, there’s no proof of this until these players actually confirm their financial standing. But it’s still interesting to hear Bilzerian declare that both of these guys are broke since he has an inside track on the high stakes poker community.

Aside from talking about degenerate poker pros, Bilzerian also covered a number of other very interesting subjects during his interview. One theme that he stressed is how he’s not among the world’s best poker pros. Instead, Bilzerian sticks to playing against celebrities and rich fish so that he can maintain an edge.

He also discussed a poker game in which an opponent only wanted to bet planes and luxury cars such as Ferrari’s ($300k) and Bugatti’s ($1 million). Dealing in tangible assets at the poker table, rather than chips, is something that really threw Bilzerian off.

One more intriguing subject is Bilzerian’s staking empire. As some people know, he staked Jay Farber during his 2013 WSOP Main Event runner-up finish. With 20% of Farber’s action, Blitz actually scored over $1 million off the second place finish. Aside from Farber, Bilzerian has a lot more pros that he stakes and earns money from.

If you’re interested in seeing what else Blitz had to say, make sure to check out the CardPlayer interview that he did.

Surely you nits have bigger issues to hand-wring over than a grown man with guns laying around inside his private residence.. a practice that has resulted in, what, zero shootings to date?

Oh noes.. [icon] has some of his guns just laying around on a table at a friend's property. Someone call da gumbment to save us!

Seriously, I'm not complaining about the guns. I was merely making an observation. I think you misinterpreted my post as me being some anti-gun nut.

That's simply not the case.

 

[Koya]

You'd be a fool to not want at least a good part of this lifestyle. That said the article above was kinda laughable comparing him to the Dos Equis guy. DEG is the epitome of cool. Understated, quite confidence, someone you both envy and respect.

This guy has the life, but seems a bit of a tool, a definite ( insecure? ) attention whore and someone whom I envy what he has but certainly don't respect what he seems to be.

That said, I'd love to fly around on private jets with a private and ever changing harem, sure.

Definitely a Fair observation but seems like a silly thing for some to fixate on. Just having some fun stirring the pot in here since it's a slow day at the office.

You really think guns in the open, random gun play plus drugs and alcohol led by a guy who almost killed a girl throwing her off the the roof is safe ?

I think guns in the open in a grown man's private residence is his business. Is there any evidence those guns are left out in the open in rooms open to the public during any of his parties?

I think using guns when under the influence of guns or alcohol is highly irresponsible. Do you guys have any evidence of this being the case?

I think you guys lack of understanding/dramatizing the "girl on the roof" situation is funny.

 

[[icon]]

I wring my hands over poor gun safety because when dumb, preventable, stuff happens it gives all of us gun owners a black-eye.

I completely understand that...

However what we have here is a guy with a penchant for attention-whoring...who posts pictures of his guns, then has them around the house during a video shoot. Pretty much par for the course. I find it highly doubtful he's got them scattered out in the open in publicly accessible areas of his home... particularly when entertaining / partying. If anyone shows evidence of that I'll definitely agree that is poor form.

...and for the record I'm playing contrarian in here for entertainment purposes... I take gun safety quite seriously.

I didn't say it's not his right but that doesn't make it responsible.

And not sure how we are overstating the potential harm ( death ) off tossing some chick off a roof. This isn't what we did in college of running and jumping ourselves - this is far more dangerous, and indicative of what appears to be a fairly irresponsible lifestyle (not just from this story, have read about this guy elsewhere).

Yeah. I would assume those guns are secured when he has his parties going. I hope so anyway.

1) Again... please show evidence those guns aren't secured when he is entertaining.

2) The girl was a VERY willing participant. If you've seen the video (or captures) you know that. If not, you should maybe watch it before continuing to comment. NOthing personal as I respect you as a poster, but the manner in which the horseplay has been painted damn near as attempted murder by some in here is flat out comical.

And of course his overall lifestyle is irresponsible... good for him. Being responsible and living a color by numbers live with a chunky wife, 2.5 kids and a minivan in the suburbs isn't for everyone. This guy is fun to follow. Not everyone plays by the same rules.. usually its the ones who break free of what we're "Supposed to do" that are the most entertaining to follow.

You can break the mold without being so intent on having the world know how "cool" you are. It without acting totally reckless.

I never said the girl was not a willing participant. Doesn't make it any less stupid. Especially since it's probably with him giving an underaged girl alcohol not to mention whatever else .

I'm hardly calling for this guys head, but as much as you accuse others of going after this guy, you seem to want to protect him.

Guys an idiot who acts irresponsibly and appears to be a danger to others. Hell, he brags about it. Coming to his defense with guns just laying around with drugs and alcohol flowing doesn't seem to do much justice to your legit points re fun ownership or doing what you want because you can afford it.

Like I said, he's the opposite of Dos Equis guy.

 

[[icon]]

So what exactly is he confirmed to be guilty of?

• Posting rich stuff on Instagram?
• Having fun in a irresponsible manner?

You want to condemn folks for having fun in risky manner (I've personally thrown a girl from a roof before, with aid of another guy, into a pool when I was younger) you're condemning everyone.

nothing personal but you come off as a codger here. YOu don't agree with the guy's lifestyle... cool. But there is zero evidence he's done most of the crap the no-fun-patrol is accusing him of in here

We get it... you like your "normal" life and resent anyone who doesn't conform to your idea of being "responsible"

I think living a life as deemed by many in here would bore me to ####### tears

Agreed. You are defending him again exaggerated accusations.

I see evidence of a guy with guns all around booze and probably drugs from what I've read. I'm not "condemning" anyone - just pointing out that this guy SEEMS a bit irresponsible and look at me-ish.

Hardly a full on indictment. As to the rest of his lifestyle, more power to him. Regardless of where the money came from, he's got it and using it a lot better than a lot out there. I don't hold anything against him for that.

Yeah, the military doesn't just let you go because of some minor infraction. If it wasn't a medical or hardship discharge, you have to do something pretty bad to get discharged from the service.

Jesus, if all you had to do to get out of your contract was call your CO a #####, EVERYONE would be doing it.

I think the story he tells is "ultimately I was HD". But no one knows if that's why he got kicked out of the SEAL program, could have been anything and that's his cover story.

My guess is that he probably DID call his CO a ##### but he was probably near the end of his contract anyways and they just decided to not renew.

The timing allows him to play the bad-### card of "I called my CO a ##### and they discharged me" - being able to fool anyone that's not or was never in the military (which is easy enough to do). Since they didn't renew his contract he gets an HD anyways.

I think the story he tells is he was in the final week when he got kicked out.

Navy SEAL training pipeline:

• 8-week Naval Special Warfare Prep School
• 24-week Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL (BUD/s) Training
• 3-week Parachute Jump School
• 26-week SEAL Qualification Training (SQT)

Don't really care. He's guy telling a story that nobody can verify.

Stories that get repeated often and he says are true: 1) he's a h.s. dropout, 2) he's got two mega trust funds - one kicked in at 30, and the other kicks in at 35.

Really don't need to know much else.

I guess I'm like a lot of guys here. There might have been a time in my life I envied his life, but no way I would want to be that extravagant or narcissistic at this stage in my life.

Let the good times roll.

Being born filthy rich sounds about right as far as living the dream goes.

 

[Good Posting Judge]

I read that he's a VC, any idea what he's invested in?

 

[Otis]

Here's why it's not every guy's dream: he's kind of a girl dog in the sense that he didn't make that money. His daddy handed it to him. There is something very unmanly about being taken on a date and paid for. There's something a lot more impressive, like light years more, if he's a self made man. So while he seemingly has a pretty cool life, I personally would have a hard time sleeping at night if I stepped into his shoes. And I'm much happier being a guy who made my own successes (and failures). So he'll always seem a little bit like a little boy in that respect, no matter how many strippers or guns or Navy seal programs.

There is something very unmanly about being taken on a date and paid for. There's something a lot more impressive, like light years more, if he's a self made man. So while he seemingly has a pretty cool life, I personally would have a hard time sleeping at night if I stepped into his shoes. And I'm much happier being a guy who made my own successes (and failures). So he'll always seem a little bit like a little boy in that respect, no matter how many strippers or guns or Navy seal programs.

I tend to agree a bit here.
