Starts off whining about how landchad is trying to evict him from his rent controlled apartment. He does this for about 10 minutes. Also mentions he can't get a roommate because the landchad won't let him.
His story:
Tried to become a daytrader at 19, and wanted to focus on algo trading. 4 years of his life aren't explained before applying to university at the age of 23 or so.
Applied to university, had to take "pre-university" courses. They still rejected him, he accepts this and doesn't fight it at all (recurring theme), and they eventually let him in after his father called them
Graduated with a Software Engineering degree in 2014 and stayed in Canada (
) while his friends move to the USRejects an offer from Amazon which he doesn't mention in the video. He mocks the offer of $6,200 a month in this other video for some reason
Tries to do a bunch of contract work as a consultant instead of getting a 9-5
Dealt with r-slurred/shady small businesses constantly
Networked with other loser entrepreneurs that ended up resulting in nothing
Got a job as a part time professor, said it was too much work compared to the pay and quit
Did another contract with another shady company for a few months (not getting paid) before it imploded. Fights with them in court for 3 years for some reason.
Sprinkled in some dumb kickstarter shit, now focusing on YouTube
55:00 shows his revenue from 2015-2024. Highest year is $36k (remember Canadian $)
Complains about no girlfriend and has another little graph

.) Dismisses the trades since they don't make enough money as well.
Only glimmer of hope for him is that he did say this
I've been quite professional and obedient for pretty much my entire life and that didn't get me anywhere, so I'm going to stop doing that
