‘You Need Grit, Determination and a Small Loan from Your Parents’: Two TikTokers Roast Every Insufferable ‘Grindset’ Podcast

Every wealthy person started their success story with hard work, humility and 40 episodes of a 90-minute long Patreon podcast run by two college dropouts who will spend a combined three years in prison for financial crimes.

The ever-bloated podcasting sphere is filled to the brim with “grindset” influencers in the vein of champion kickboxer and accused/imprisoned human trafficker Andrew Tate. These “finance experts” try to sell impressionable, unsuccessful young men on their personal brand of wealth-accruing habits — as well as a crypto coin, an online course, a brain-boosting supplement or some combination of the three. Gotta spend money to make money, right?

Earlier this week, comedian Caroline Baniewicz posted a parody of every insufferable finance influencer douchebag who has ever charged podcasting equipment to their daddy’s black card. The video immediately went super viral with over six million views, which can mean only one thing — it’s time for Baniewicz to mint the sketch as an NFT. Never stop grinding.

There you have it — all you need to be obscenely wealthy is dedication, $300,000 to start out with, and a Monopoly top hat. Get to work.
