BUCHAREST, ROMANIA: Andrew Tate, a self-proclaimed provocative influencer, recently utilized the X platform to proclaim he was among the top 0.01% of the world's richest individuals.
He also criticized those experiencing financial hardship, attributing it to perceived laziness and a lack of a strong work ethic.
Tate also claims to guide people to prosperity through his 'The Real World' program, though this initiative has frequently faced controversy due to allegations of operating as a pyramid scheme.
Andrew Tate labels poor as 'broke, lazy and dumb'
In a recent tweet, Tate expressed his views, stating that despite having grown up in poor circumstances, he harbors a sense of disdain for those who have not achieved financial success.
He believes that they are not putting in the necessary effort and emphasized that he began from a position even lower than theirs.
He went on to assert that he has now reached the top 0.01% of the global wealth hierarchy, and he firmly believes that the concept of trying for a decade and failing is unrealistic.
Tate asserted that after years of dedicating every waking moment to the singular goal of achieving wealth through hard work and focused thinking, he believes that everyone eventually discovers the solution.
Tate challenged those facing financial difficulties, suggesting that they have no one to blame but themselves.
He also asked whether they will choose to humble themselves and undergo a transformation, or if they will continue to remain in a state of financial hardship, laziness, and ignorance, emphasizing that it's their choice.
Tate asserted that an individual's financial status is a reflection of their character, insisting that it does not come from the excuses one tells themselves at night but rather a consequence of who they are as a person. However, he still offered a glimmer of hope by suggesting that this can be changed.
By becoming hardworking, sober, critically thinking, and charismatic, even in a state of financial struggle, he guarantees that one won't remain financially challenged for long.
Tate wrote, "Despite growing up poor - I find myself harboring disdain for the financially underachieved. You are not trying. I would know. I started below you."
"Now I’m in the top 0.01% of this planet. There is no such thing as trying and failing for 10 years. That is not real. That does not happen," he continued.
"The hardworking, sober, critically-thinking, charismatic broke person doesn’t exist. Not for long. They ALL get rich eventually, SOMEHOW," Tate noted.
"After years of spending 24 hours a day with the singular goal of becoming financially wealthy, After years of hard work, singular focus and critical thinking, they all find the solution eventually," he claimed.
Tate added, "You broke? You have no one to blame but yourself. Are you going to humble yourself and change who you are? Or remain like most people, broke lazy and dumb? IT’S YOUR CHOICE."
"You are poor because of who you are," Tate continued. "FACT. It's not because of whatever excuses you tell yourself at night. You are poor because of who you are as a man."
"Luckily for you, you can change that. Become the hardworking, sober, critically thinking, charismatic broke person. I guarantee you won't stay broke long," Tate said, concluding the rant.
Trolls call Andrew Tate 'arrogant'
Tate's tirade prompted a flurry of responses on X.
One user wrote, "Arrogant...At least... You started above 80% of the planet." Another said, "You’re not even part of the 1%. So no, you’re not part of the .01%."
A user stated, "I speak for everyone on X when I say, we do not care." Someone else commented, "If not cam girls, how else would you have amassed wealth? Sincere question."
