Journo Tries To Live Like Dan Bilzerian; Comes To Amazing Discovery

Dan Bilzerian. You know the guy, right? Big vain muscly bearded guy? Plays poker? Obsessed with Instagram? Pays women to hang around him in bikinis all day, every day? He’s the ultimate dude (in the eyes of any ten year-old boy). Sure, it’s a crazy lifestyle. But is it all it’s cracked up to be? Is it paradise?

After living the life, though? What conclusions did Julian come up with? Dan Bilzerian is a bit of a douchebag. Which we all kind of already knew. Still, it’s a fun read.
