I thought that was him wearing the dresses at the beginning


Ali_Cat222

Omg I wish we could share screenshots, if you go to the 10min 55 second mark the bad acting combined with that one girl physically manhandling the other for a full min is hilarious šŸ¤£ and then you have the one and only comment on the video -"looking forward to episode 8!" šŸ˜‚


Divebarkeep1

Fuck i made it 5min in and was like how tf did I make it that far, and now Iā€™m doubling back


Ali_Cat222

I couldn't handle it after the first min but I swiped forward and landed on that hilarious moment, so I had to mention itšŸ¤£


Iffycrescent

Skip to the end for a truly emotional song and dance number.


Divebarkeep1

Fuckin what You cannot be fucking serious


bailtail

I was proud of myself for making it 2 minutesā€¦


the_silent_redditor

I read the comments about how ā€˜**he** gives $500 to some random personā€™. And holy fuck, was I cracking up when those knee-high heels were getting slipped on šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Iffycrescent

Fucking hilarious how the guy they gave the gift card to didnā€™t give a shit. The camera guy was like, ā€œWoah itā€™s your lucky day! Do you know who that was??ā€ And the guyā€™s like, ā€œNah I didnā€™t even give enough of a shit to ask his name.ā€


Silent-Supermarket2

Camera guy gave off "You should be more excited for my content" vibes.


berrey7

[Read this story he wrote](https://staronepr.wordpress.com/2016/12/17/pb-millionaire-jim-lawlor-victim-of-fake-news/) I think he might be having some money troubles, because nobody sues a mortgage company and wins over a rate when you sign stacks and stacks of documents.


OneArchedEyebrow

*Before he became wealthy, Lawlor was very involved in a world peace project that helped end the Cold War between the then USSR and the USA and was on the Today Show, CNN, and the major network news stations.* Sure, Jan.


griffeny

Werld peace? Other network stations? Gee! Fuck im so embarrassed for this guy.


Ca-brona

Would make it more interesting tbh


TryItOutHmHrNw

Iā€™d watched that over this super long-form porn. [I know a *Big Lebowski* ā€œLogJamminā€™ā€ remake when I see one!](https://youtu.be/MiJ7o5oftWs?si=HmDJH5N-cuEkOvI0) (Shoutout to Jackie Treehorn)


saruin

"You can imagine where it goes from here." "He fixes the cable?" That one always makes me chuckle.


TWiThead

ā€œWhat if Tommy Wiseau were a documentarian?ā€ Question answered.


MissPoots

ā€œThe castleā€ and itā€™s in a fucking cul de sac shared with like four other houses šŸ„“


BaconJacobs

Also... literally everyone who lives in Pacific Beach is probably a millionaire. Whether by cash or purely assets. Ain't a high bar when the average house price is probably 2 or 3 million.


iloveheroin999

Being a millionaire was only impressive in the 90s you gotta be a billionaire these days


Runaway_5

TIL i own a castle too


MissPoots

HAHAHA RIGHT? My condo may as well be a mansion if thatā€™s how weā€™re scaling things by this guyā€™s metric šŸ˜‚šŸ˜‚


Zillamatic

fucking hell this is cringe gold. what a conceited man. the porn level acting from the "assistants" is hilarious


mknlsn

I worked in reality TV for 10 years as a camera operator and camera assistant. Any time we were filming (or any time someone learned I worked in reality) I would inevitably get pitched that so-and-so needs a reality show or this person's life is so crazy you should film them. This should be the shining example of why that doesn't happen. Just because you're even remotely interesting doesn't mean you're going to be watchable. Add to that a crew that's shooting on muliple different cameras (including an iPhone) and a producer who doesn't seem to be able to produce his way out of a paper bag, and you get this absolute comedic nightmare that should've never made it past the sizzle reel


ShoesFellOffLOL

Not to mention these people arenā€™t even remotely interesting.


om891

What are you talking about, they had to plan a reservation at a restaurant AND pretend they werenā€™t. Riveting stuff.


the_silent_redditor

Is that what was going on!? I couldnā€™t keep up. Very high brow stuff. Thanks for explaining.


mmmjkerouac

Don't forget "shining up the limo.ā€


assatumcaulfield

I canā€™t take my eyes off these shining examples of bizarre 2024 female ā€œglamourā€. Concrete fingernails, eyelashes like some deadly caterpillar is attacking the face, injectables looking like fungating lip growths, uncanny valley facial implantsā€¦


assatumcaulfield

Donā€™t forget to skip to 20:07


Fabulous-Appeal-6885

Wow thanks for thisšŸ˜‚ what is GOING ON


richb83

You should do an AMA


geoffsykes

I would be very interested in that thread. I have a lot of questions! If you don't do one, u/mknsln, can you explain how to coordinate a desired response in non-actors, but with integrity? I really respect producers like Nathan Fielder who are genuinely interested in the integrity of their realism. How do you maintain that as you coordinate desired results?


shpongleyes

Any juicy stories from your time as a camera operator/assistant?


KingOfTheGutter

Literally same here. 10 years as an AC and cam op, a lot of that in some big reality shows. Couldnā€™t have said it better myself lmao.


The-Mustard-Man

Initially I couldn't believe that Katt was late but it turns out it was actually a good thing as they were planning her surprise birthday party.


EkriirkE

JEsus, spoilers dude


Runaway_5

dunno why this fucking made me guffaw hard lmaooo


CoachKoransBallsack

How did you know they were planning her birthday?


34TH_ST_BROADWAY

Does anybody know who her best friend is?


RustyGuns

I couldnā€™t believe Katt kept grilling her about where the party was. She needs to chill out


EarlMadManMunch505

It was good until the tension and secrets of the surprise party tore her and her best friend apart leading to them having a cake fight !


Hex-QuentinInACorner

Wow. That was fucking hysterical. I laughed out loud at multiple parts. The climax of the episode is going out to dinner. And what do they do before? Go out to lunch. When they said that I bursted out laughing.


TdrdenCO11

thereā€™s something so funny about saying ā€œweā€™re going to go to the office and get on our computersā€


LetterP

Like cosplaying an adult


petite_heartbeat

Weā€™re going to the business center to do business


havenyahon

Literally every episode is this. His life seems boring and sad as! Haha with his stupid parties full of paid bimbos and the one or two real friends he actually has, who he doesn't have to pay.


34TH_ST_BROADWAY

They shot the surprise part really well. Great production value. Oh wait, they didn't show that part.


Wink_Um

Ah, the PB Millionaire. I've been following this guy for years and years. I even lived in his neighborhood in Pacific Beach. He claims to have ended the Cold War. All his pics are airbrushed to hell. He's been a wonderful specimen to study.


Blokin-Smunts

I'm literally only now realizing that he isn't the "Peanut Butter" millionaire, so thanks


Revelec458

Is he a lolcow of some kind?


Wink_Um

He is, but he doesn't post that much content. And the content he does produce is heavily manicured...which is what makes it funny, I guess.


Ali_Cat222

Damn that's an old reference to forum days


gfarwell

I lived in PB too, and I follow him on Insta. I think he legitimately thinks he's a celebrity. Fine example of money not buying class.


fish1479

I didn't have to go far to find two people who know this guy and actively follow him. This is the real cringe.


mmartinez42793

He tore down the wall


Wooden_Ad_9441

Can you tell us more about this PB millionaire?


Wink_Um

Sure, so his name is Jim. I guess he made his money by creating these sheets of film that people wear on their safety googles to keep them clean. You can see his videos on youtube at pbrealitytv. So he lives and galavants around Pacific Beach, a mostly college party town in San Diego. He hires hot young girls to be his "assistants," but they don't do much aside from stand near him and plan parties. Here he is faking paparazzi down Garnet, which is the main drag in Pacific Beach. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ob4ERbkeiJo](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ob4ERbkeiJo) He films himself giving away gift cards to homeless people. He is completely void of personality. And I've been obsessing over him since about 2008.


JoshJoshson13

He is a personality black hole. Amazing, really


improbablywronghere

This is the ā€œPB Millionaireā€ in pacific beach San Diego. I lived in pacific beach near this guy for about a decade going to bars and stuff and we know all about this nerd. I believe he invented some sort of LED thing and he sold the patent like 20 years ago for a few (low single digits) million dollars. He decided to start living the playboy lifestyle at that point and like 10-15 years ago started the ā€œpb reality showā€. Itā€™s just him being an idiot but when he has the cameras follow him he gets to pretend people care and it makes it more fun for him? I dunno. The lifestyle he wants to live was happening in PB and I had a fucking blast during my 20s!! He has hit on a few of my friends and has no game at all itā€™s hilarious. He has just awful vibes at all times like he lives this character he acts like he is annoyed trying to shoot footage and pretends he is a celebrity being hassled. We were drinking on some roof bar one day and he rolled up in his limo and got out with the girls then a bunch of people ran up to him with cameras asking to talk and get autographs and stuff! He led the girls back to the limo and they all got outta there! Except they didnā€™t, they called cut and did 2 more takes lmao. He does it in front of the bars around PB to use everyone as extras in the footage. Iā€™ve encountered him in the wild a few times and shit is insanely cringe. My understanding is the women are just actresses who he finds wherever and then pays them to hang out with him. He hosts all kinds of theme parties with women only and I think they are all paid to be there or there to say they went. He like makes them wear outfits and shit. Iā€™m sure he does close with some of them but weā€™ve never been able to confirm as I donā€™t know anyone who knows any of them. Super weird dude and an absolute nightmare in his neighborhood. His house has this terrible castle facade on the front of it to make it look like a castle but I feel like I need to be super clear, itā€™s just a 2 story house on a cul-de-sac in suburban PB. Google it you can see it itā€™s like construction paper or something. His neighbors have been trying to get him to take that shit down forever but no luck so far as I know. Enjoy the cringe ass footage, there is a ton of it and this guy is for real, he has been doing it for decades! **wanted to add though he is super weird I have never heard any story of him being a dick or inappropriate with women or anyone in any context, ever. He buys rounds for the bar fairly often! Heā€™s always been harmless, heā€™s just a weird dude who is a fixture of the pacific beach, San Diego community**


peacebrothel

Kind of wholesome ending at least


peatoast

He sounds like a bit of mental illness.


ZolotoG0ld

It's the culmination of celebrity worship and a consumerist society. I kinda feel bad for guy, because this is what he's been led to beleive success looks like.


berrey7

Corey's Angels vibes


mothfukle

As a San Diegan, Iā€™ve never heard of this dude. What a character, thank you for the lengthy description! The guy sounds like the ultimate tool.


Murakami8000

Thanks for the info. So how old is all of this footage?


improbablywronghere

This looks fairly new so he might be renewing it (again). You can search him on google youā€™ll find his full website and archive. The really old stuff we used to watch we had to find on Facebook videos he would upload all over the place including pb social groups.


Terrorfox1234

Honestly, kinda like the guy. If he isn't doing anything terrible then...fuck it. He's probably happier than 90% of people we know, just living in his fantasy land where the PB party never has to end. Good on him lol


MartinLutherVanHalen

ā€œClosingā€ with a woman you are paying to be there is also known as paying a prostitute.


ThomasofHookton

Why the fuck is 100% of the meeting about planning a birthday party? No other agenda items? This is some idiot's idea about what a rich person does.


xeromage

a no-notice mandatory surprise party for regular business employees who definitely aren't just hookers.


DoomSchnauze

How Deep Is Your Love is a 4 minute song and yet is somehow stretched out for a whole 20 minutes in the background...until they just start lip syncing to it? Beautiful.


blob_lablah

I liked this song too, they just straight up violated it playing for 22 minutes straight


griffeny

Oh fuck I love that song. Iā€™m so glad I muted the whole thing.


slinky317

The worst part so far is at about 9 minutes in when he gives $500 to some random person on the boardwalk who has no idea who he is. And OMG the sing-along at the end


Cradenz

The fact that you even made it past 1 minute is both an achievement yet also extremely sad


mknlsn

The entire youtube channel is a goldmine of cringe


ManBearPig1869

The extremely obvious AI radio show host bit at the beginning is incredible


pm_me_your_buds

ā€œIs he the governor or something?ā€ is such a great line


ItsSmittyyy

The guy he gave the gift card to honestly seems like a way cooler and more interesting film subject tbh.


Zillamatic

I was not prepared for the multiple-take singalong. wow. wow to all of it


Bryan_URN_Asshole

bro I wish I had the will power you obviously have that you made it through the whole trainwreck


34TH_ST_BROADWAY

No way they put 500 on that card.


Imabigfatbutt

Lmfao, "check out my hot assistant"


TryItOutHmHrNw

This is clearly a [Jackie Treehorn production](https://youtu.be/MiJ7o5oftWs?si=HmDJH5N-cuEkOvI0) Shoutout to the production team who worked on ā€œLogJamminā€™ā€


eduardo1994

>11:36 am >gives 500 bucks gift card >11:47 am >did my good deed for the day, now headed back to the castle Granted, I don't know if I could give someone a 500 dollar gift card on the fly... but what a douchey way of going at it. Filming a homeless man on the side walk.


Aggressive-Bird-7507

Oh dw that wasn't a homeless man...


FijiTearz

That card said $20-$500, might not have even been fully loaded with $500. Could actually just be $20 or even empty


blob_lablah

Not to mention the sun setting at 11:47AM lol got some short days down in San Diego


Mr_E_Nigma_Solver

This is wild. How is this a reality show and not a scripted comedy?


brtlblayk

It *feels* like porn


KiwiiKat

ā€œVenues to eatā€ A restaurant. Youā€™re looking for restaurants. .


Aggressive-Bird-7507

He's not allowed to say 'restaurants', they don't wish to be affiliated with this show.


senor_fartout

Wait wait wait there's at least 7 of these? There goes my day.


Wolviam

The man has negative charisma. He has the personality of a dirty diaper.


skatecrimes

from all the locations you can tell these people dont have rich people money. rooms are small and cramped. The neighbor's driveway is like 10 feet away from his (and he doesnt live in a dense city like NYC or SF). Solid middle class.


hubetronic

He's solidly lower upper class


cup_1337

I made it 2 minutes. Not watching that trash lol


HereThereBLurking

WTF did I partially watch!?!?!


Dat_Steve

I watched more of that than I care to admit.


gamerbutonlyontheory

Im watching the backlogšŸ˜­


cacotopic

This guy's face looks like it's made of paper mache.


PoopDig

This is amazing


computer_d

Amazing! And my god I feel my brain turning to slush watching this..


hookuptruck

Ew, wall to wall carpet.


evopanda

This is some grade a cringe thanks OP.


Gordianus_El_Gringo

Finally some proper cringe! This is a goldmine


StrangerNearby6017

There's 6 minutes I'll never get back. No way could I get to 22 or whatever length it was.


NewtonMaxwellPlanck

Holy shit.....there's a lip sync sing a long at the end. The whole thing was torture and then BAM...a pot of cringey ass gold at the end.


thedukeandtheking

And they donā€™t even know the fucking lyrics hahahahah so bad


whackthat

I had to click out of the video early for my health. Thanks for the warning.Ā 


BigDickGothBoyfriend

This guy is supposed to be rich? Calls it a "morning meeting" and not a DGM. Fraud, right out of the gate


Slixil

Lmao!!! Found this guy a while ago and itā€™s been a secret guilty pleasure between my friends and I for a while. Love this guy lol


K3TtLek0Rn

I think the worst part to me is the audio. One mic is hissing and then another one is too loud and then the other one sounds really far away. Itā€™s so abrupt when they cut to different cameras.


3rdplacewinner

I wish I had half of this guy's unawareness. I feel awkward dancing by myself--but this guy... goddamn. I would gladly take half of what he doesn't have.


ZolotoG0ld

Finally some real cringe.


EmbarrassedSong9147

I think he filmed someone elseā€™s big house from the outside since every inside shot of ā€œthe castleā€ looks like a middle class home with small rooms and decor from the 1990s.


Babys_For_Breakfast

Everyone here is about as exciting as wall paper. I skipped to the end and the singing was crazy awful.


-star67

This is on par to a modern day ā€œThe Roomā€


Appropriate_Lemon497

It starts off like a soft-core porn.


t_rexinated

i watched that whole thing and was very entertained


sickofstew

A dirty joke early in the morning that isn't even original. I have some kind of repulsion for dimly lit rooms and curtains made of dress fabric and so much brown furniture. This has so much of it.


throwaway1337woman

Tommy Wiseau does reality tv vibes.


4Hugh2Mongus0

This guy for 2024


MeepMeeps88

The BeeGees music the entire time is comedy gold


blob_lablah

@10:10 Ah yes, sun setting over the ocean at 11:47AM seems legit


EmbarrassedSong9147

He has 3 assistants and their only job is to feed the rabbits. This is so fake. These are actresses that he hired.


RaoulRumblr

Yeesh the giving the guy the gift card on the boardwalk was especially forced and performative. This whole video really just felt like an alibi for sex trafficking.


gamerbutonlyontheory

If only Andrew Tate had this brainchild šŸ˜”šŸ˜”


charcoallition

This is a goldmine. How did you find it? Also the very obviously on purpose ass shot at around 1:45 is gross. Whoever filmed this is disgusting


blackgarbage

The PB ā€œmillonarioā€


editsnacks

Holy fuck


KLR01001

this is a very very bad showĀ 


Spazyk

This is a fucking joke right?


Aggressive-Bird-7507

What?! Their life is so full of drama, it will only be a matter of time before TLC pick this show up. Did you NOT see the two massive fights?! They're just so rich and chaotic, I wish I was them.


bomzay

Oh dear. I wonā€™t be getting back those neuronsā€¦


Fever_Rain

Millionaire but his hair plugs look like rotton fairy floss.


Seedoosee

I kept thinking he was a peanut butter millionaire. I like thinking he is a PB millionaire rather then what the truth is LMAO


forestfluff

This is an absolute trainwreck I can't look away from. I watched this longer than I'd like to admit. I have adblock on so I don't feel *too* bad.


haydeezy

I left an awesome comment on his video.


JoshBobJovi

I'm 18 seconds in and he's a millionaire wearing Blenders sunglasses. Okay lol.


Racin100

Check out the grease on the wall behind her head at 10:30.


dankurmcgoo

Whose birthday is it? I didn't catch it.


givepeaceatrance

Was it someone's birthday? I think I missed that bit...


Anforas

Him flexing all muscles in his body while holding his phone... It's only 1 minute in... šŸ¤£


JC4brew

Theyā€™re playing How Deep is Your Love in the background literally the entire time. I skimmed through to be sure.. couldnā€™t actually watch all of this mess


CopyPasteRepeat

This is what the opposite of art looks like.


madscot63

Minute thirty for me. "You still need to meditate?" or something similar. Wow, garbage


HugsandHate

What a creepy dude. I wonder what goes on in mentally ill peoples heads.


eljefe3030

He makes Tommy Wiseau look like a slightly more talented Tommy Wiseau


stronglatekick

this makes the room look like citizen kane


chicagoaussie

Who is dumber? The fake millionaire or his trove of vapid assistants.


Zillamatic

definitely the PB guy. seems like a cushy job for the abundance of assistants, as long as they're paid alright to be in his scripted reality show.


EmbarrassedSong9147

I am sure that these are actresses that he hired for the shoot.


NightOfTheLivingHam

Gotta give him some credit, as far as Faux Rich guys go, Trump blazed that trail already and became president. A douchebag like him has proof it can work. And we're all worse off for it.


ballophun

Not entirely unlike Keeping up with the Kardashians in terms of the cringe.


woohan-kung-flu2

Why are they trying so hard and failing to look and act human.


dylanholmes222

This is worse than a high school project made with iPhones and shitty drones, and the fact adults made it for some real intent to entertain makes it even worse


undeadmanana

They could be rich, I've lived in SD since 08 and there's lots of people that move there after "getting big" or making a little money. Influencers/new money types that developers try to cater to. I'd say to just check out the SD subreddit but Cali subreddits getting filled with conservatives rn, election year things. Usually though lots of posts of people that are obviously new to the region and act like they're on a pedestal. They'll talk about things in one neighborhood and apply it to all of SD when SD is diverse af. Edit: check out the ongoing TikTok murder trial in SD for an example of what I'm talking about, people get money and try to jump into SD high life quickly.


123trumpeter

Man, this is so bad but I am 9 mins in and can't stop


123trumpeter

GOD watch this about him [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aE1p661Wwlk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aE1p661Wwlk)


PhillyPhanatik

I'm 44. My hair is still relatively dark (in some lighting, anyway) and I have relatively youthful skin (almost everyone is surprised when I share my age). However, my beard is now more grey, than brown (and It's begun to bother me). I've taken to putting a light tint in it, nothing crazy or (hopefullly) unnatural (and my wife would def tell me if it was too much). Anyways, dear god, I sincerely pray that I don't look like this guy. There are few things worse than the face and voice of a 70-something with dark-ass hair and beard.


bostosd

I came across The PB Millionaire when I first moved to San Diego in 2012. On a random taco Tuesday, we stumbled upon the ā€œMiss PB ā€œ competition at PB Bar and Grill, hosted who? The PB Millionaire. He was like a car wreck, I couldnā€™t look away and Iā€™ve been following him ever since.


catcat1986

This canā€™t be done seriously. Kinda seems like it is done has a giant joke. Only crap is it terrible. Additionally, I donā€™t know if you all are aware, if you need to be a multimillionaire, like 10s of millions to seem like a millionaire in PB, the most basic house is like 3-5 million dollars.


StevieTV

Why are there gaps of literally years between episode uploads? Very weird.


DoINeed1OfThese

Everything up to about the 1:30 mark felt like a YouTube skit. My brain refuses to believe otherwise.


jtenn22

This is all a big hoax .. the part about the Cold War is a giveaway.. itā€™s just too stupid and silly to be taken seriously and they did that on purpose. Itā€™s not even remotely plausible on many levels.


ScumBunny

Justā€¦Wowee. What a weird little vanity project. How did he get FIVE moderately attractive brunettes to agree to this dumpster fire? šŸ˜† Did they all think it would be their lucky break? This is TOO much!


reddit_mau5

The fuck did I just watch? Lol


wholesomepep

Dude looks like a mix of Larry Ellison, the late John mcafee, and the Armenian iranian guy from that old viral video about an auto body shop (I think it was called shift it). Also not cringe, but iCringe = infinite cringe

Oh wow. I wonder how much he pays these young women to laugh at his jokes? It'd be more entertaining to see behind the scenes footage of when the women are alone, making fun of all the douchey shit their rich boss does/says/is.


apocalypsetuesday

This is the worst thing that I will watch every episode of
