Ean gadzi portrays himself as an exemplary entrepreneur a millionaire at just 18 years old and an $85 million net worth by 23 from agency owner to YouTube Star he's had a meteoric rise on the surface he seems perfect a little too perfect he's as charismatic and Polished as they come and so far he's escaped any kind of scrutiny until now Eman has grown to nearly 5 million subscribers on YouTube over 1.7 million on Instagram and has Clips viewed by millions more his young fan base loves him and is hungry for wealth and success but is he just another core seller promoting the dream or the real deal did his nft actually deliver or just crumble into the typical Wasteland of empty promises and empty bank accounts I dug deeper to find out while researching this video he found out I was digging and tried to cover his tracks but this train is full steam ahead let's dive in Eman gadzi has carefully curated an image of a successful entrepreneur and investor but what if that isn't entirely true he seems to have a large and loyal audience but that doesn't stop him from buying bot comments here on a mini viral video from a small YouTuber named switch you can see ean's name among several other botted comments looks like she forgot to remove ean's name from her bot script swizy is also in Dubai so it wouldn't surprise me at all if Eman hooked him up with this bot guy fake comments aside there's no doubt in my mind that Eman is wealthy yes influencers can max credit cards to rent a superar for a day but his lifestyle is not cheap what matters most to me is the source of the funds and if the guru is as legitimate as they claim Eman is a core seller one that likely makes millions of dollars a year you've probably seen one of his ads recently a major component of his sales pitch is that he had a tough life growing up I'm a only child and I just had a difficult upbring I try not to dive too deep into people's personal lives but he includes it in his brand image and I found this next segment contradictory uh eventually she like moved over there and took me with her and my stepdad you it was like this like fairy tale you know my stepdad was quite wealthy so in addition to a new life in a new country Eman was sent to a better school um so he put me into private school expensive private school so as I said like this is literally like a fairy tale or supposed to be like a fairy tale ending you know how much money the dad had we don't know but this statement should give us an idea on the tax bracket my stepdad moved to uh Dubai when I was 8 years old so from 8 years old he lived in Dubai and he was only back in London for you know 90 days 120 days a year but he was also allowed more days because he had a family so he it was just it was this weird chess move where basically he saved a lot of money on taxes country hacking for tax reduction purposes is an honest signal of wealth what appeared at first to be a great situation eventually soured and they got divorced apparently he was never around for ean's childhood Eman is now partially living in Dubai like father like son eager to make a better life for him and his mom Eman began posting videos on YouTube with the goal of becoming a sponsored Fitness influencer it's hard to believe he and his mom were struggling that much though with him posting about his trips to Italy on his Channel all right

that he was eager to become an influencer and create a career on social media by networking and growing a small following he was able to land a sponsorship deal which gave him the first taste of YouTube success to his credit he was allegedly pretty Savvy with social media during his early teenage years actually how back in 2014 I gone into a world of flipping Instagram accounts then when kids found out my school I mean they basically just flamed me for you know the longest amount it didn't matter that I was making you know $500 $1,000 a month from the side hustle his YouTube channel eventually led him to starting an agency for social media marketing services so I signed my first client uh it was content creation editing uh social media management and distribution for $380 a month and that was August of 2016 it was actually my old football club I had affle then zebra field and furo systems and then the one after was a personal trainer called James Taylor so um the way I actually got all of these clients was Instagram DM I believe he had a little success with his agency study his content closely enough and you can watch the jumps he was making from starting out to building a team to running what appeared to be a legitimate agent but the timeline and business filing strain credibility in July 2017 at age 17 he posted this so what I want to talk about today is what I learned creating a six-figure business at the age of 17 just to clarify my marketing agency has not made £100,000 yet and when I say 100,000 I mean that in pounds and profit it hasn't made that yet but it's very much on track to do so and to surpass that and then a year later he claims to have a $1 million net worth he was born in 2000 so that would mean a million in 2018 and I made my first million at the ripe age of 18 years old let's see how truthful this claim is one of his businesses named i a online services was incorporated in 2018 here's the certificate showing January 31 2018 as the official start date in the UK even private businesses have to submit paperwork and asset documents which is how I access this data you know and then I started scaling to like 50 60 70k mon the balance sheet shows this company had less than $300,000 in assets I watched a lot of his videos around this time and there was no indication of other assets owned such as real estate stocks or private equity and other businesses this is the balance sheet for 2023 that shows the company is having only $177,000 in assets you know 60k a month or whatever to where I am right now at like roughly 200k a month profit it's true that companies don't always keep large cash or asset reserves but the timeline of his business filings raises even more eyebrows another company I found tied to his name is iigs at Holdings that was incorporated in 2020 this company also didn't do anything and dissolve less than a year later nice stuff limited was incorporated in 2019 and did absolutely nothing before dissolving a couple years later agency flow limited was incorporated December 2021 the balance sheet shows that they have around $315,000 in total assets big day lifestyle was incorporated in November 20123 this is for his new drink that he promotes regularly on his Twitter with all that said where's the proof of him making millions from his agency it's possible I'm missing something but I couldn't find anything indicating his agency was still making millions or ever did email states that he closed his agency in 2022 so this begs the question I always ask in cases like these if his agency was so profitable why didn't he sell it Eman posted on Facebook that he hates people who don't practice what they preach Eman since you make all of your money selling a course and running an agency but don't run an agency yourself does that mean you hate yourself here's the best part and yet here's me chained to my laptop working late at night this isn't how you should run an agency Eman the good news is that's not how I run mine I a media takes up at most four or 5 hours a week of my time time iig media was incorporated in November 2017 this company didn't do anything and shut down less than a year later this company has been dissolved since August 14 2018 iag media only took up four or 5 hours a week of ean's time his words because it wasn't doing any business his 4-Hour Work week was 4 hours because he had no clients so what happens when your business isn't making any money ladies and gentlemen this video is not clickbait on the 6-year anniversary of signing my first client back in August of 2016 I'm shutting my agency down six years of Blood Sweat and Tears a six-year Journey that took me from a broke high school student to a multi-millionaire tell me if you've heard this one before business owner shuts down business that makes a lot of money I haven't honestly I haven't because it doesn't happen and if they want to move on they sell the business simple as that they can even accept a lowball offer if they want someone will buy a profitable business you can guarantee that I run a seven figure agency using systems and processes I have haven't seen any proof that really showed it in 2021 where at my agency IG media we had our best year and we also had our best single month at $116,000 in profit again I haven't seen any proof Eman has successfully convinced everyone that he's a mogul agency owner when his businesses balance sheets indicate something else his course could be amazing it could have thousands of successful students his software upsell could be everything these customers need sure I hope that's the case but I think Eman realized that selling a highly priced course was how you actually make money in the super competitive agency World he's not the first and won't be the last confident he'll be a billionaire by the time he's 35 he is very disciplined when with anything Financial in his life my favorite trait about Eman is he's in this next wave of wannabe entrepreneurs who try to Brand themselves as a ninef figure business owner but he's just a glorified core seller following the failure of a smalltime marketing agency and through sheer Charisma and video production quality he somehow convinced everyone he's one of the legit ones the biggest tell of these guys is that with each New Wave they add a figure to their marketing constantly trying one up each other first it was six figure then seven then eight and soon to be nine do you really think that these industry expert gurus went from making a few hundred th000 a year to becoming billionaires overnight or more likely did they just need to pretend to be making more to sell more courses than the other guys now it's time to discuss what we've all been waiting for ean's nft project what are you excited about right now uh definitely GCC like all high-end entrepreneurs he released an nft project in 2022 to ensure he'd be featured in the next Forbes 30 under 30 magazine he pitched the gents croquet Club as a private gentleman's club for dudes to network in link up with some high-end gents across the world for the past several decades Gentleman's Club has referred to strip club so you'd expect them to have women around but no such luck not sure why so many guys want to pay so much money to hang out with other guys without a gallon sight but to each their own the gentleman's croquet club nft offers Brotherhood which while lacking in today's society is available in many cities at a much lower cost and with greater reward VIP access which highly implies access to Eman directly major reason for many members joining I'm sure here's one member's comment on ean's involvement or lack thereof he never came into the voice Channel he never engaged in the chat and when he finally addressed it because the community was calling him out he said he was way too busy focusing on building the project that's why he hired the moderators and that's why he pays Peter to be in Discord all day and of course wealth creation is Promised if you join and how was that wealth made with a private research team of course guiding you on crypto nfts and my personal favorite metaverse real estate the only form of real estate I'm aware of that doesn't have actual dirt underneath it this joke Market collapsed in less than 2 years and now only has 20 people trading in it even this guy could have 20 people show up to his virtual barbecue GCC was launched in May 2022 when you were launching your nft project how much money did you actually make on the launch on that day we did $4.4 million I personally took home like little you know cuz there were costs I also had um you know our developer team uh I had a co-founder in that so I personally took home roughly around like 2.8 anyone with an ounce of business knowledge knew all along that the nft model didn't make sense because there was no recurring Revenue to support the promises made to the customers it was all predicated on the promise of a speculative Market that never actually existed and these nft Bros pretend they didn't promise wink wink you made $2.8 million and I'm like yeah that's also my salary for the next 20 years and this is the inherent problem it isn't enough money for him to care as we'll see in a minute these projects thrive on influencer fueled hype tapping on people's fear of missing out pumping the price up however you have to remember that eventually there's always fool and they find themselves holding on to a project with zero utility that serves them no purpose while seeing 70 80 and sometimes even 90% losses in their initial investment oh the irony so he knew the expected failure rate and did it anyway but that's not what Eman LED his holders to believe here's one holders account of iman's broken promises Iman broke his word period going back to that marketing message this is the nft that you will never sell you will never flip it I really felt that he broke the trust that he was not a man of his word like my biggest beef really is that you can't be a lifetime member and keep the nft at the same time too because for me that is sketch I was scammed this Project's mint was $4,500 and was promoted as a place to network learn how to trade crypto from an expert access events and be a message away from Eman most importantly they were promised that Eman would leverage his social media profiles to market the project nft projects all follow the greater fool Theory so marketing the project to Millions is a great value because it increases the chance of a greater fool wanting to buy your nft but what happens if there isn't any marketing Eman promised an end of Monon report for nft holders in a message delivered on January 12 2023 Eman wrote that he will be marketing the project at the top of his lungs that year even saying he'd be dropping a marketing nuke for the project on February 7 2023 Eman wrote that it was time to build GCC into one of the most prestigious Men's Clubs in the world along with a video about a web 2 announcement a couple months later Eman then sent this video to the community members gentlemen I'm just going to have a very open and honest conversation with you guys today the things that I've seen in the nft world I never thought I would see in the world of business in my entire life he shares that they make zero Revenue zero form of reliable Banking and can't operate as a web 3 company they also aren't able to offer the alleged utility of the nft a coner service for free because it cost $3,000 per year this is a surprise to No One nfts were the most obvious scam of all time and yet people still fell for them because of the promises being made by the influencers the hurdles that nft projects have had to face would shut any business down and not only just shut businesses down it would cause Riot it would cause Panic the riots are actually from all the customers who bought into these projects thinking there would be something of value offered and the nfts could be sold years later Eman also stated that they needed to switch to web 2 for the project instead of web 3 so it's currently $10,000 a year we'll be moving to $112,000 a year very shortly if you want to know how Eman pays for his lifestyle look no further than his fans paying $10,000 to be in his community now for those of you that hold five or more you will get 3 years access to the Inner Circle and this is something we're going to be charging $50,000 a year for this would be an amazing value if you were in a group with Elite power players in your industry but it's really just learning from me man the glorified cor seller and a few Discord messages from his team for $50,000 the one massive oversight is it said that I didn't realize you know just how many of you guys used GCC as an investment strategy rather than for its utility majority of the people buying nfts were doing so because these projects were hyped to the Moon by someone with influence and they anticipated being able to make money when the market bottom fell out people lost money and allegedly business savvy people like IM man acted surprised reminder that the mint price was around $4,500 and some people paid a lot more but for those that don't do anything with it by August 1st uh as in they don't transfer it to web 2 they don't sell it and they don't transfer it I will give a 45 uh 4500 usdc refund this sounds great Eman is offering a full refund but there's more to the story by April 2023 less than a year after minting this project Eman already realized it was a failed Endeavor in a message to the group claims that you can trade in your nft for access to what will now be a web 2 membership group GCC is the entire group and the more expensive Inner Circle was the more exclusive group he further claims in the video to be excited about the future of GCC and how awesome of a community he'll be building his Instagram account at this time followed all of his other businesses but did not follow GCC on July 5th 2023 the two guys now running the show posted an update video for the group and addressed the refund claim essentially the initial deadline was August 1st we are giving 12 months on that day deadline so that deadline is now being pushed back uh to July 2024 this seemed promising for the many holders who wanted a refund they simply needed to make a decision within the following few months we believe that with like 12 months of events and other plans outlined in the future of GCC that this gives members who looking to leave a far more attractive exit strategy he's basically explaining how holding the token for 12 months will make it easier to dump on the next greater fool since the perception of the token will be more valuable after some more events despite these claims I have multiple screenshots of GCC holders asking Ali for a refund and his response is that there are no refunds available I could not find any evidence of any refunds that were actually processed you won't find another person on Earth who's willing to put up their own money personally to try to save and Salve a situation like this Eman routinely mentions how much money he makes to the holder so a little refund of a couple Grand shouldn't matter much right here he claims to average a take-home pay of a million dollars a month from his web two businesses and rejected an 8 figure offer for a software company he even states that you'd be stupid to believe he did this for money although we believe strongly that the market will give the opportunity for the people to to exit at a better rate than any refund would have my sources have told me that they pulled the offer to refund and haven't granted any to date this is equivalent to someone walking into Home Depot and asking for a refund on their Hammer that broke after opening the package only to have the person tell them to wait another 12 months for inflation to cost hammers to be worth more the nfts are now selling for around $23 so good luck exiting your position and the trading activity is basically dead as well as ean's social media accounts get bigger and he likely made more money from his course is his attention to GCC Wayne to the point of being non-existent in the chats people paid good money thinking most of the value would be access to this young entrepreneur who positioned himself as an excellent investor knowledgeable businessman and someone with access to a high-end social network instead they got a worthless nft access to a Discord and invitation to a couple events that would be logistically challenging to attend some holders started complaining then reached out to me and what do you know emaan's coverup began my sources began asking people in GCC to help assist me with this video ean's team caught wind of of this and magically Eman showed up out of the shadows and followed GCC on Instagram again then came this announcement from Eman all right guys so I just wanted to pop in with some very very exciting news GCC members will now get access to multiple educate products for free I like having this much power over scammers but that didn't sound like a full refund offer to me with Eman constantly telling people how much money he's worth and making yearly a small refund to those who want it shouldn't be too big of an ask is he fabricating his income and net worth numbers or is his ego just too big to care a couple quick final notes one there was a sizable group of holders who considered this a scam who have notified me that Eman and Company are working on the project again since finding out about my video two some of the Lost utility of the project that Eman promised was outside of his control his coner service getting pulled as an example three some people notify me that they've had a good experience with GCC so not every holder considers it a scam four the end goal for victims of scams is to no longer feel like they were scammed so if Eman is able to make it right and this video was the Catalyst then that's great news I think in this world you can get pretty far by doing some pretty shitty stuff but at the end of the day that caral comes back to you I agree thanks for watching
