The former kickboxer, who is currently undergoing trial over accusations of human trafficking in Romania, wrote, “I love taking care of people. Anyone I love is spoilt absolutely and completely. Diamond watches, cars, 5 star hotels and private jets.”
The former kickboxer turned influencer added, “None of this makes me happy. But making them happy makes me happy.” “It’s absolutely the best thing about being rich,” he concluded.
Internet trolls Andrew Tate for his 'materialism'

The person continued, “I can tell you what I want on one hand: My gf and future wife, Some kids, Land (maybe a little farm) and a homestead safe from government and defensible. Self Sufficiency (power, water), Internet, And outdoor gym... Maybe some more guns. A dog.”
Another person further claimed, "That isn’t taking care of people," asking, "Why does this guy seem to think walking around with an erection and a fist full of hundreds screaming like Howard Dean makes you a man?"
