Is the OP kidding? I just watched the Fyre Fraud documentary two days ago and it's quite clear that not only is Billy McFarland a con artist, he's a serial con artist. He started his "entrepreneurship" by hacking his school's computer to sell crayon repair services. His next venture was the Magneis credit card that promised "exclusive access" to events that it didn't have -- and went out of business. After being told many times that Fyre wasn't workable given the venue, budget, and time limitations in place, he went ahead anyway. The most telling part of the documentary is when the interviewer asks him about all his lies. McFarland can't even admit to one of them. Ja Rule, though disclaiming responsibility, is just as guilty... and he's going to produce another festival which he claims is "similiar." The OP says, "it's not a scam if you succeed." Who in the world would call Fyre a success? It ended without a single band performing, people having to be evacuated from the island on an emergency basis, and a $100M lawsuit. Mr. McFarland, for his part, is currently in prison for wire fraud. It's disheartening that so many entrepreneurs today feel like defrauding people is the best way to success. Let's hope the Fyre Festival's failure acts as a lesson to some of them.
