Entourage was very big in the in the early 2000's and I wanted to emulate Ari Gold, that power dynamic guy. So, they did all this build out for me and then I fly to the south of France. I take my friends. I stay at Hotel du Cap. I take private planes to the VMAs and then September of 2008 comes along, the great GFC, the great financial crisis and I was 28 years old and ill-equipped to deal with it because I'd only been on an upward trend and in the space of 2-3 weeks I was destroyed, wiped out. Because I'd been buying asset-backed securities and they had a life term and then there was no liquidity. The air got sucked out completely.
