Narcissist sociopath. I'm a huge fan of dry humor (and British) so should be able to read sarcasm or dry humor but he just annoys me. Putting "as a millioaire"

Narcissist sociopath. I'm a huge fan of dry humor (and British) so should be able to read sarcasm or dry humor but he just annoys me. Putting "as a millioaire" in video titles is the most crass thing I've seen.

I think you are missing the joke. The crassness of plastering "as a millionaire" everywhere is a joke on its own. Sort of a parody on other tubers who throw in similar catch phrases. In his early videos he talked about how being a "millionaire" isn't actually that uncommon. Now it is a meme to the viewers of the channel.

I don't like his sense of humor either, but I have to admit he exposes certain aspects of tech life and attitudes that people in general don't talk about, and maybe this is what make us uneasy (or: is funny to some). Things like badly camouflaged pride in one's achievements, position, being successful, being better than others. He is deliberately ambiguous.

  Yeah, he's no idiot, he knows what he's doing by mixing relevant/important opinions with his scams. Luckily he's a very bad actor as well, he doesn't sound very trustworthy when trying to pull a fast one.

  There were two options in GPs edit and I stand by my choice. The guy thinks he's some sort of god for a mid-level fang role while scamming his followers.

    You're stating that TechLead is a narcissistic sociopath who is engaged in scamming, such as with this alleged pump and dump scheme? There's over a hundred comments in this post, and so far nobody wants to detail the alleged criminal behavior. It's a very serious claim to say that someone has mental illness, or that they are engaged in criminal behavior over cryptocurrency scams, especially in a public forum where you have zero ability to unring a bell.
