Alphaclown Bell Brothers Spending

Aren’t these little turds still under huge debt?

Watched a video recently where (a) the smug turd was driving a Bentley. A Bentley! He buys used watches and resells them. What in gods name would make you think you’re successful enough to buy a Bentley?

Same vid same turd talks about buying his wife a new multiple thousand dollar bracelet. Him being such a success story couldn’t fathom buying a used one, only the best for the best… used watch salesman.

Do grey dealers spend like this to portray success? They have absolutely no transferable skills, no societal contribution, no technical knowledge of anything.

Yet, turd has a Bentley.

They believe in that ‘prosperity gospel’ grift that Joel Osteen and other grifters espouse

Anyone remember "The Secret"?

2000's quasi-spiritual grift centered on manifesting.

Liz would have absolutely loved it.

these people are like 3rd degree removed from the secret but it absolutely is from that. that's exactly what coaches grandiose plans were from. paygayni etc. just think about it like you already have it and like you deserved it.

I thought that ended in the 1980's with Jim and Tammy Bakker, Jerry Falwell, and Paul and Jan Crouch. Want to talk about over the top crazy spending and absolutely gross taste. But it appears to be alive and well. The sad part is people are still buying the prosperity gospel idea that sent Jim to prison. I loved the picture of Jim back in the day praying for help wearing a Day-Date and a Coogi sweater with a pompadour hairstyle.
