I never saw his videos but his name still came up a lot as a know scammer in many forums. He was prolific in his reach toward vulnerable populations who were desperate to get rich quickly. There are a lot of young people who feel that their only chance at having a decent life is to strike it rich from something big. People like this person prey on those thoughts.

Yup. It was bad enough 10 years ago, but now... IMHO the despair has gone exponentially worse. On one side, you got big name YouTubers/Twitch/Kick streamers getting absurdly large deals to shill VPNs and supplements of questionable utility and safety, then for young women you got OnlyFans and its various copycats with excesses like Lil Tay making 1 M$ in 24 hours after turning 18 (problematic in itself - it seems like almost every female child/juvie actor has to cope with absolute weirdos doing countdowns to when they "turn legal").
And on the other side you get an entire generation of people who know that they will never even have the chance to own a home even if they work their entire life.
