Look, there is a misconception, if I have savings and I invest them, if I win or lose, that is my savings and if I ask for a loan to be able to invest, and I win or lose, that is the responsibility of the person who invested, so why does a person say that he continues paying a loan that he asked for to invest?
“There is another misconception. You think I was handling all that, that’s not true (…) in fact those who managed the fund told me Look, we can pay you commissions if you promote this.so I am not 100% owner of the page,” he added.
“I was also affected”

“The person who lost the most money for those who don’t know was me, because I put about $87,000 dollars (more than $81 million) into that fund and Social Money died on August 1, 2023. That’s right, people. I was also affected, but I had kept quiet because I thought it wasn’t the time to talk,” he denounced.
