Yeah he kinda screwed over an entire publicly traded company. He made millions as a very under qualified CEO on a fake CV. He was a real scum bag to a lot of people well before his fake pro cycling career. He lives in a million dollar house in one of the most expensive neighborhoods outside DC, renovated and paid for by local cyclist who thought they were buying from a real expert. That is before he got all the COVID stimulus money. He’s doing quite well, and other than having to reinvent himself, he really didn’t lose much except a temporary boost to his ego. The lesson here is faking it and taking shortcuts seems to work well for white men in America.
