By 2017, Tate realized the webcam business had a ceiling—plus, it’s hard to brag about it on Instagram without looking like a creep. So he reinvented himself as a masculinity guru and cryptocurrency wizard. He started tweeting about “matrix” this and “giga-chad” that, and suddenly, young men were eating it up like free pizza at a frat house.
He launched Hustler’s University for $49 a month—that’s $588 a year for advice like “work harder” and “don’t be a loser.” Multiply that by 200,000 subscribers (his peak, according to leaked data), and you get $11.7 million a month. My math is screaming, but I’ll say it: that’s over $140 million a year. From a guy who started with a chessboard and a broken webcam.
But wait—there’s more. Tate also pumped and dumped cryptocurrencies, like a stock market shaman. He’d buy a coin, tell his followers to buy it, then sell when the price went up. Is that illegal? Eh, the SEC is still deciding. But it made him another pile of cash, and he used it to buy real estate in Romania, where he lives like a Bond villain in a 13-acre compound with a private cinema.
