  2. Man I will never understand this, guy threw it all away for a measly couple of bucks

  3. All jokes aside, this is just sad.

    I thought he looked good in limited minutes, and probably would’ve carved out a modest NBA career.

  4. Buddy won’t even have time to learn Chinese, because he’ll be spending his prime years behind bars.

  5. Hustling backwards. Could have paid it back with interest next season

  6. I mean, he should legitimately go to prison for this. There’s no difference between robbing a bank and robbing a online casino/ potentially thousands of bettors who bet the over/under on the game by influencing the outcome illegally. It’s not all that unlike the Mafia fixing games.

  7. jontay’s investment advice was all about buying tesla because elon had alpha energy at the events, and then when the stock didnt respond to positive earnings and instead relied purely on memes, jontay was shocked. he brutally mistimed NFT’s and crypto. he helped run an investment website and discord that gave advice someone with zero qualifications would give, no actual analysis just vibes. i dont think jontay rly understood any of the things he was getting himself into.

    theres an article about how the porter famo home school their kids

    “Michael Porter Jr. also said that being homeschooled enabled him to learn at his own pace. That meant that if he learned the lesson after two hours, he could spend the rest of the day working out in the gym. It was different in public school.”
