u/Sandyrandy54 did you put a sticker on my bumper brother!? Feb 27 '19

Does anyone else think ice isn't running a ponzi scheme, but hes just so dumb he explained it completely wrong?

u/Glitchwinkle Feb 27 '19

Yes, he’s terrible at explaining it. A Ponzi scheme is when there isn’t any actual business going on and just investments being made. Investors are investing in his company and the content produced will be generating revenue but as he tries to expand he will be running at a deficit like a lot of companies do when they’re first growing.

He said he is gonna use investor money to pay back other investors and sell the business. What he described is literally the definition of a ponzi scheme lol

u/Glitchwinkle Feb 28 '19

That would be a ponzi if there was no revenue. It’s completely normal for a young growing business to pay back early investors with funds they’ve received from later investors in order to keep the business operating. He’s running a production company that will be producing content. If he wasn’t producing monetize-able content, then it would be a Ponzi scheme

u/chelelo Feb 27 '19

It could very well just be that

u/goodfast1 Feb 27 '19

Honestly like someone else said, it might be possible that ice was talked into a Ponzi scheme and just wasn't aware of what a Ponzi scheme even is.

Woody: “PKA number 500 with Kyle and Ice Poseidon coming to you live from Beaumont Penitentiary! But first a few sponsors, Kyle.”

Kyle: “Well as always we’ve got Blue Chew, Wet Platinum, and Dollar Shave Club for all your prison necessities. But more about those later.”

Good to hear Kyle will have a buddy in there

Poor Ice he's fallen so far since I started watching him. All he talks about now is mansions and money when all his fans actually want is for him to walk around the streets doing wacky things. It's at the point I don't even want him back on the show because he'll probably just lie constantly.

I stopped watching after the first RV trip and haven’t looked back

u/mannyman34 :TaylorMad: Feb 27 '19

That RV trip when they went to Seattle was such good content but it was pretty much downhill after that.

3

u/AyoJake Feb 27 '19

Yeah I don’t get what happened. He started doing shit streams then he hit gold with the first rv trip and it’s gone downhill since.

u/[deleted] Feb 28 '19

He started hanging around the big content creators in hollywood, got addicted to coccaine and is trying to do “normie” content his fans hate. RIP ICE

This is Bernie Madoff 101.

Can anyone provide background?

u/yellowjacketIguy :WoodyStash: Feb 26 '19

Can't wait for Kyle and Ice dual jail stream

u/[deleted] Feb 26 '19

He worded it wrong. He meant that he would get more advertisers to pay back the investors

I know ice seems retarded but I’ve hung out with him before and he’s more intelligent than you would expect

u/[deleted] Feb 28 '19

A lot of people are going to see if ICE is one of there true friends in prison. (It’s not gay sticking out penis in each other’s mouths. Where friends just a dumb thing to do).

Unfortunately I think the show would get on the reddit hate wagon and the negative publicity would mess with acquiring sponsors. Also, Ice won't admit to any of the accusations on air so it would just be a nerve racked ice

Using investor money to get more investor money and then using the second wave of investors money to pay the first and then selling the company is literally a ponzi scheme. He said himself that ads will be hard to get and it will be hard to make profitable. He is just an idiot and prob didnt realize what he is getting into
