Why's it feel like everyone is an influencer these days and everyone is bringing in crazy money? There are private jets, Rolexes, huge hauls, PR unboxing, jetsetting across the world, and a parade of mansions that seem to be flooding social media from influencers everywhere.

In this video we talk about the different ways influencers fake wealth, the insane debt that is behind many of these influencers, and the bad money management that even the top influencers display.
