You keep a liquid asset reserve, probably most of it in Switzerland or the Seychelles, and a few suitcases of cash in strategic locations.
The rest should be tied up in investments in safe countries. America isn't one anymore but Europe is pretty safe, South America can be surprisingly good too, and if your interest is just in maintaining your wealth and lifestyle, there are investments so safe that anything that would destroy them would also make money the least of your problems, so just invest in those.
Sounds more like a jumping board than a Nepo baby. Iirc his dad had a small part in a Bond movie. Maybe his dad knew some people, but doesn't sound like he had much clout or pull.
this, he literally came from a wrestling dynasty family. same reason that talentless frick roman reigns got a huge push. they're part of the somoan wrestle mafia.
>I had 7$ in my pockets
let me guess... his parents have lots of connections or something?
Same shit with Arnold and every celebrity pretending to have been piss poor.
if you read his autobiography, its fricking ridiculouse how much luck, help and good will helped this guy to get to the top.
You know how when you play vidja some rounds are complete shit and everything goes wrong, and then other rounds you destroy everyone because everything just fell into the right place at the right time? This is what gets people to the top. Talent and hard work is needed for sure, but 99% of the famous peopole had talent, hard work and luck on their side.
He is in the Anoi'i family. They are all wealthy at the top due to wrestling and he was always guaranteed a future in it with success because of his last name. It's one of those bullshit stories that celebs like to make up for PR.
Reminder he had a whole film crew come in to record him buying chocolate bars instead of just doing it.
>His father and Tony Atlas were the first black tag team champions in WWE history, in 1983.[45][46] His mother is the adopted daughter of Peter Maivia, who was also a professional wrestler.[47] Johnson's maternal grandmother Lia was one of the first female pro wrestling promoters, taking over Polynesian Pacific Pro Wrestling after her husband's death in 1982 and managing it until 1988.[48][49] Through his maternal grandfather Maivia, Johnson is a non-blood relative of the Anoaʻi wrestling family
There was never a chance of the Rock failing to make a career
by literally accepting any role offered to him, no matter how shit the script. have you seen his run of movies lately? last good movie he did was pain and gain. c**t should be embarrassed
I mean, he probably did, I just don't care. Nepotism is normal where I'm from, it's considered weird not to engage in it because if everyone else abuses the system and you don't, you have simply hurt your own people while advantaging others. No matter the circumstance it is always uniformly and categorically and without exception dishonorable to hurt your own to help others, and thus if you even suggest it you are excluded from all future decisionmaking.
>duhhh well that's corrupt and bad why is everyone corrupt and bad!
Because everyone who wasn't got their teeth pounded in ten generations ago. Choosing "principled" strategies that cause you to lose merely reduces the amount of principle in the overall system, because when you do this you basically agree to forfeit 70% of group advantages for no benefit in return.
If a building is on fire, and 3 foreign children and your 3 children are inside, do you run in and save the first child that you see, or do you look for one of your own?
Anyone from here will run past all three of yours to save one of their own. In fact some might even hide yours in the hopes that you will mistake one of theirs for yours and save it. Maybe, if they cannot find any of theirs, they would grab one foreigner on their way out, but ultimately they do not care, they just want to be rewarded and to show that they are not inept. There is ZERO lose-condition for them. The only thing abstaining from nepotism does is reward those people, while punishing yourself.
Nepotism is one of those games that you don't get to choose whether or not you play, you only get to choose whether you want to break even or get fricked, and you can only make that choice for yourself and for people close to you.
jealous poorgays are going to seethe because he had a strong network of good family and frfiends, but that doesn't discredit all the blood and swear dwayne put in. hard work, diligence and perseverance, and some luck, anything is possible. t. dentist on my lunch break
He was part of a big wrestling dynasty, this meant he got a second chance in the WWF, even when he flopped incredibly hard at first and failed.
But he used that second chance to become such a huge star he grew the popularity of wrestling itself, alongside some others. The Rock didn't benefit from the boom period he's one of the people who created it, making opportunities for others. He's a once in a generation talent when it comes to charisma.
He pretty much never turns down a movie, he shows up early and doesn’t complain or get spun out on drugs and throw a primadonna hissy fit like most entitled actors. Literally the easiest actor to work with in Hollywood so producers and directors love him.
Being a cooperative team player is actually a rarity, even in the regular workforce. Being easy to work with and fitting into a team alone can get you a job, even if you don’t have all the skills. Same goes in Hollywood
There are plenty of sons of former wrestlers who entered the industry by pure nepotism and never struck with the public- And also his father was a literal mid card at best when he was active.
The Rock is a self made wrestler, the guy had his father with connections but the public never cheered for him and even got real personal heat before it was called X-Pac heat. The moment he started to create his own character and not the babyface the WWF intended him to be at first was when he started to become really popular
This is all fact. Everybody knows this. It's all evidenced. He can do whatever he wants because he earned it.
Joe Weider was a gay israeli man and paid Arnie to dress as a nazi and do gay things to him. It was a fetish and a humiliation ritual at the same time.
That's how Arnold went from austrian squatter to millionaire in 5 years.
>320mil >highest paid actor
Meanwhile Taylor Swift and Rihanna are fricking billionaires. I always thought musicicians make absolute peanuts compared to actors.
Kino is expensive to produce and you need a theather or a big fat tv to really enjoy it. You can produce a banger song that sells world wide in your garage studio
FINALLY THE ROCK HAS COME BACK TO Cinemaphile! YOU SEE THE ROCK HAS BEEN AWAY FOR A FEW DAYS, TOOK A LITTLE THREE DAY VACATION, THANKS TO A MAN EVERYONE KNOWS AS THE JANNY! EITHER THOUGH SOME TIMES THAT MAN MIGHT BE PARADING HIMSELF AROUND AS A WOMAN, YES THATS RIGHT JANNY, THE ROCK KNOWS YOU LIKE TO DRESS UP AS A WOMAN BUT YOU WILL ALWAYS BE A MAN TO THE ROCK! AND THAT WILL BE THE LAST TIME YOU EVER BAN THE ROCK IN FRONT OF THE MILLIONS... (and millions) OF ROCKS FANS! SO I TELL YOU WHAT I'M GONNA DO, I'M GONNA RESET MY ROUTER, LOG ON TO Cinemaphile, FILL IN THE CAPTCHA, MAKE A SHITPOST, TURN IT SIDEWAYS... AND STICK IT STRAIGHT UP YOUR CANDY ASS!
>father was a wrestler >used that to contact wrestling recruiter >met Vince through recruiter off his father’s name >Vince gave him a job
Wow, “self made”
if banks only insure up to 250k, how do you minimize risk of losing your fortune?
Don't lose your fortune. Same as any other insurance.
Make more bank accounts
FDIC only pays out per person. Extra accounts do nothing.
It's on a per-person per-bank basis. Extra accounts at different banks each get their own $250k limit.
but 320 millie / 250k per account = 1280 bank accounts
There are 4715 FDIC-insured banks in the USA.
>diversify your assets
>buy non-volatile assets
>buy real estate
>insure it all privately
FDIC only protects your money if the bank fails
Rich people dont keep their money in the bank moron
so how would you have money for spending if you use it to buy property and invest it, for instance
You keep a liquid asset reserve, probably most of it in Switzerland or the Seychelles, and a few suitcases of cash in strategic locations.
The rest should be tied up in investments in safe countries. America isn't one anymore but Europe is pretty safe, South America can be surprisingly good too, and if your interest is just in maintaining your wealth and lifestyle, there are investments so safe that anything that would destroy them would also make money the least of your problems, so just invest in those.
take it all out and bury it somewhere
smart dogecoin investing
gold furniture, making it too heavy to easily steal
holding on to pumpkin futures, year round
Keep it under your mattress
Give the money to a bunch of people you trust and be broke and without any assets the can be legally seized
>FDIC only pays out per person
Wrong, the limit is the number of member banks and the practicality of opening up a ton of accounts like that
So is this an argument against height being a determining factor in career success?
Smoked a lot of weed I guess
he had a dad who was in the professional wrestling biz. that’s how he did it.
another trust fundie homie
another nepo baby
ding ding ding
No he only had 7 dollars. No connections, no support. Other wise it would be listed there.
baskin roberts trust fund band
Sounds more like a jumping board than a Nepo baby. Iirc his dad had a small part in a Bond movie. Maybe his dad knew some people, but doesn't sound like he had much clout or pull.
His grandfather was the one in the Bond movie, several generations of the men in his family have been successful wrestlers
Literally one, his dad. His "grandfather" isn't his real grandpa.
Still counts
Ok but when his dad was wrestling was it basically a carny show. They were barely getting paid enough to live off.
Absolutely funded
this, he literally came from a wrestling dynasty family. same reason that talentless frick roman reigns got a huge push. they're part of the somoan wrestle mafia.
It's like hearing George Clooney talk about having to sew his own ties. Clooney's father was rich and well known in Hollywood.
Good genes and charisma. Both his parents were part of wrestling with his dad being a legend so he had strong connections to fall back on
He's not charismatic at all. How do you people not see that the dude is disingenuous as frick?
He was kino during his WWE days
Says the shut in permavirgin
He used to be charismatic before he sold his soul to Hollyweird and literally became a brand. He’s incredibly fake now, but he wasn’t years ago.
>moron continues to misunderstand the meaning of "charismatic"
hot meal
FINALLY! JESUS THIS PLACE IS FULL OF newbieS.
FRICKING butthole ZOOMERS. GO THE FRICK BACK
About time someone said it
Lel
This should have been the real FPBP not this moron shit
that no one cares about
What kind of hot meal?
>I had 7$ in my pockets
let me guess... his parents have lots of connections or something?
Same shit with Arnold and every celebrity pretending to have been piss poor.
Arnold always mentioned that he had plenty of help growing up.
He keeps saying he is 100% selfmade and had nothing
He had enough to buy shitloads of steroids lmao
he was a gigolo and did naked photoshots for old men...
How is he saying he's self made when the post is talking about someone helping him
if you read his autobiography, its fricking ridiculouse how much luck, help and good will helped this guy to get to the top.
You know how when you play vidja some rounds are complete shit and everything goes wrong, and then other rounds you destroy everyone because everything just fell into the right place at the right time? This is what gets people to the top. Talent and hard work is needed for sure, but 99% of the famous peopole had talent, hard work and luck on their side.
>its fricking ridiculouse how much luck
>luck
Hollywood is just fall of homosexuals and predators, Arnold 100% sucked dicks and got fricked in the ass
Arnold literally did an entire speech on why the self made man doesn't exist, and how he only made it thanks to the help of others
Is that Zac Efron?
Don’t compare that fraud to The Rock.
They both used steroids
His dad was a successful wrestler as was his grandpa on his moms side.
He is in the Anoi'i family. They are all wealthy at the top due to wrestling and he was always guaranteed a future in it with success because of his last name. It's one of those bullshit stories that celebs like to make up for PR.
Reminder he had a whole film crew come in to record him buying chocolate bars instead of just doing it.
>actor
Wait, that thing is an "actor"?
2000-2002 was peak Rock
Did whatever it took, including steroids and sucking a dick or two.
When they got their first paycheck, John Cena bought a Chinese house. The Rock bought a hot meal
Big whoop. I had negative 40 grand when I was 23.
It's a huge exaggeration calling him actor. He's just a action star, a stunt in lead roles
>broke at 23
What a piece of shit.
he sucked and was fricked by a lot of old man freemason wiener
>His father and Tony Atlas were the first black tag team champions in WWE history, in 1983.[45][46] His mother is the adopted daughter of Peter Maivia, who was also a professional wrestler.[47] Johnson's maternal grandmother Lia was one of the first female pro wrestling promoters, taking over Polynesian Pacific Pro Wrestling after her husband's death in 1982 and managing it until 1988.[48][49] Through his maternal grandfather Maivia, Johnson is a non-blood relative of the Anoaʻi wrestling family
There was never a chance of the Rock failing to make a career
Nobody even in wrestling lauds the Rock because of his family. Tons of wrestlers come and go and never make themselves into anything.
>I only had a few bucks in mah pocket
boy I'm sick of hearing this crap.
LOOK AT YOUR BOY NOW
by literally accepting any role offered to him, no matter how shit the script. have you seen his run of movies lately? last good movie he did was pain and gain. c**t should be embarrassed
>how the frick did he do it
humiliation rituals
I mean, the people weren't chanting "Rocky sucks" at house shows. It was definitely "Black person"
Stopped spending money on hair products
How many times do you think he sucked Vince off? Or did Vince just watch him frick Stephanie whilst jerking off?
Started lifting
ITT: 26 year old NEETs in their mother's basements accuse successful person of benefiting from nepotism
I'm actually a 36 year old neet, thank you very much.
That's a lot of experience
I mean, he probably did, I just don't care. Nepotism is normal where I'm from, it's considered weird not to engage in it because if everyone else abuses the system and you don't, you have simply hurt your own people while advantaging others. No matter the circumstance it is always uniformly and categorically and without exception dishonorable to hurt your own to help others, and thus if you even suggest it you are excluded from all future decisionmaking.

There is nothing wrong with nepotism. There IS something wrong with not admitting to it.

>>just because he had $7 in his pocket doesn't mean he didn't have money in the bank
he's a professional liar, my dude!!
He was part of a big wrestling dynasty, this meant he got a second chance in the WWF, even when he flopped incredibly hard at first and failed.
But he used that second chance to become such a huge star he grew the popularity of wrestling itself, alongside some others. The Rock didn't benefit from the boom period he's one of the people who created it, making opportunities for others. He's a once in a generation talent when it comes to charisma.
To be honest if I had the chance to change my life with The Rock's, I wouldn't. He has to be the Rock and I wouldn't want that. I'd rather be me.
Don't forget him and Oprah tried to hussle people for money when Haïti burned. Didn't even write a song or nothing.
He pretty much never turns down a movie, he shows up early and doesn’t complain or get spun out on drugs and throw a primadonna hissy fit like most entitled actors. Literally the easiest actor to work with in Hollywood so producers and directors love him.
Imagine learning your lines and showing up on time is commendable. You know how easy it would be for me in Hollywood?
Being a cooperative team player is actually a rarity, even in the regular workforce. Being easy to work with and fitting into a team alone can get you a job, even if you don’t have all the skills. Same goes in Hollywood
staying in his lane and giving it his all on every single opportunity encountered. also being 6'7 and having a massive bbc helps too.

You guys see Raw last night?
certified look at your boy kino
>320mil

Meanwhile Taylor Swift and Rihanna are fricking billionaires. I always thought musicicians make absolute peanuts compared to actors.
Taylor Swift is the #2 most sales of all time among female musicians. Different stratosphere than the Rock.
but what do they do with all that money? the tmz type news sources ignore that and prefer their love lives and scandals
Kino is expensive to produce and you need a theather or a big fat tv to really enjoy it. You can produce a banger song that sells world wide in your garage studio
$7 in 1995 was like $300,000 today

Hoganbros???
