Here's his résumé, which you ask about: http://web.archive.org/web/20070222123930/http://www.ivygateblog.com/images/vayner.pdf http://web.archive.org/web/20070222123930/http://www.ivygate... Here's an article about his sister, who has been successful since age 22 investing in real estate: http://money.cnn.com/2005/03/04/real_estate/investment_prop/tycoongarber/index.htm http://money.cnn.com/2005/03/04/real_estate/investment_prop/... She's relevant because an address she owns was used as the address of the charity. There's no evidence she knew what he was up to. Students who know him considered it all to be a joke or at least not malicious: http://web.archive.org/web/20080422030103/http://www.yaledailynews.com/articles/view/18308?badlink=1 http://web.archive.org/web/20080422030103/http://www.yaledai... > But Won Chai ’07 said that while Charity Navigator has a right to be upset with Vayner, he thinks the humor of Vayner’s resume should be appreciated. > “I think clearly he was trying to play a practical joke or just trying to draw attention to himself,” he said. “Whether or not it was a good thing or not, I couldn’t say. People seemed to be enjoying it. I-bankers are forwarding this stuff to each other. Maybe it’s good for a laugh now and again.” > Pieter Morgan ’09, who has lifted weights with Vayner, said he thinks Vayner often makes seemingly unbelievable claims because he genuinely believes them to be true. Morgan said he thinks Vayner is a genuine person, despite his penchant for seemingly implausible stories. > “I think it’s like in ‘A Beautiful Mind’ with Russell Crowe,” Morgan said. “When he tells you these stories, it’s completely genuine, which is what is completely amazing. He’ll tell you with a completely straight face that he knows the Dalai Lama, and he is completely serious. I think he is fundamentally a nice guy.” Here's his charity site which seems to only have been active in November 2006. There was a web comment that mentioned that he used these sites to get girls and was apparently quite a player. http://web.archive.org/web/20061129145614/http://www.empowerachild.org/web/ http://web.archive.org/web/20061129145614/http://www.empower...
