HE TURNED HIS LIFE SAVINGS INTO A "DOGE" COIN THAT STARTED AS A JOKE. HE BECAME A MILLIONAIRE AND REFUSED TO SELL.
Glauber Contessoto, a 33-year-old young man who grew up in poverty, worked at a hip-hop music company. He did not own a home and drove an old car.
In 2021, he decided to make a "all or nothing" bet, CZ style.
He maxed out his credit cards, took out loans, and scraped together every dollar he had to put $250,000 (money he could not afford to lose) into #Dogecoin.
His friends mocked him. "It's a meme coin, it's a joke, you're going to lose it all."
Two months later, the price skyrocketed. His account showed 3 million dollars.
Everyone was yelling at him: "Sell! You've already won! Get out now!".
But Glauber did the unthinkable: He did not sell. He watched his account drop from 3 million to 500,000 dollars when the market fell.
Today he continues to hold on ("Hodling"). He says his conviction is not for the money, but for the community. He went from being a nobody to being "The Dogecoin Millionaire".
Is he a hero with steel hands or the most stubborn investor in history for not taking profits when he could?
