90 Dias Para Ficar Milionário

Just finished Season 1, and my first impression is that Glenn Stearns is a freaking GENIUS, and a great guy!! He may be the first rich guy that found a way to beautifully bridge the world of the super wealthy with the world of everyday common folk in a really beautiful, relatable, touching and more importantly lasting way. That's very interesting, educational and inspiring to watch. And at the end it just leaves you feeling optimistic for the future.

I don't think I can praise this show enough. It's so good! I'm kinda shocked of how little popularity it has. I only found out about it because Chris D'Elia joked about it on his podcast yesterday. And the premise of the show sounded too interesting to ignore.

The show also uses its own popularity to promote the MacGuffin of the story in a proactive way. Again it's just genius.

I give a standing ovation to everyone involved with the show.

Great job!

My husband and I found this show on an airplane. We loved the first season, we've learned so much (from the first season) and applied alot of the ideas to our own life. The second season was far worse though, filled with agendas too. All 3 of the contestants were a bunch of brats.

I first heard about this billionaire, when he was worth about $100 million, back in the early 2000s. He was living in Orange County CA, building company. I remember hearing his wife say that on their first date, as he was telling her a story about his past, she all of a sudden knew that he was the man she was going to spend her life with. So happy to see that they have been married for 16-years now. I recall that she was a news reporter working in L.A. To help her deal with the rush hour drive, he hired her a personal driver to make the daily commute.

Now about the show. Not much happens in the first episode with regards to seeing him build a business. However, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that this is not like other business reality shows in that the entire season takes us through this one billionaires journey rather than a new store, new billionaire each week.

Even though he states several times, that he has a cover story about why their are cameras following him around, I have to assume that in reality, some if not most of the people in the town, knew right away that all was not as it was presented to them. Let's face it, when was the last time someone made a reality show about a homeless man trying to find a job and create a life in a small town? That's basically the cover story he and the show are claiming to be selling to the small town community.

I plan to DVR the entire season not just because I am an entrepreneur but also because I happen to like the guy as I had a very good impression, reading about him and seeing a video of him in the early 2000s, seeing his home and his wedding that he had in his Newport Beach backyard.

So far this is an unbelievable process. Flipping $3000 cars for almost $10G, with a car wash. OK, not likely but Could happen, I guess. Obtaining a construction loan on the house with a fake name and background and no income IS NOT going to happen. Unless he had help from the network, at a minimum it's fraud and the show does not explain this impossibility. He wants to flip for $80K. Again, not likely and also how will he get the cash for the profits with fake ID and background. Since this is a lynch pin of the show it's already foolish. Without explaining the mortgage loan, the concept falls apart. Even a no docs mortgage requires a credit score... More Fraud?

If a visible cameraman is following you of course people are going to say yes to most of your requests. He has a phone, a truck, gas and some cash. I'd say he's better off than some people I know who have none of those things. But it's still an interesting idea for a show.
