Recently, we have this story of famous person, a social media influencer, who flexes his money and his wealth like his big house and a car. But recently, he admitted that he had lost 69 million PHP which is almost $1.2 million.

And it seems that he doesn't care about his money. However, it is now revealed that he is selling his car and most likely all other assets because he doesn't have any money anymore. There is a huge debate for Filipinos though, maybe he is doing it for clout so that he can generate money. And he didn't actually lost that big amount, much lesser, like 4 million PHP (but that is still big money for ordinary Pinoys).

But in any case, the "I don't care about money" has backfired on him and obviously this is a fake flexes.

Why I don't like this fake flexing especially the ones that make it to social media is the mindset that it gives to naive people that gambling is all about winning, making profits without any losses. It makes them to have  many false expectations of what gambling is. Secondly, reputation is one of those things that should be guarded highly, and that is what those who fake flex of their gambling wins on social media don't know. Once people are able to catch them, you already know that their career at whatever is gone because the title of a liar and what they did will stay with them forever.
