Adam Bilzerian Net Worth
Adam Bilzerian is a famous poker player and “Instagram playboy” who is known for his lavish lifestyle. His self-declared wealth is really impressive. Bilzerian’s claims to have astonishing $100 million of net worth. According to him, Adam gained half of this sum in 2014 as poker winnings. But there are no independent sources to confirm his bold statements.
Adam was born into a family of infamous investor and hostile takeover specialist Paul Bilzerian. Adam’s father amassed incredible fortune through these takeovers and also thanks to real estate investments. However, he declared bankruptcy twice (in 1991 and 2001), although he’s far from being homeless. Adam might inherit one day sizable wealth from him but did so far very good job providing for himself.
His poker career became famous in 2009 when he won over $100,000 in World Series of Poker. He experienced some even bigger winnings since then. His brother Dan is also a professional poker player. It looks like the genes for risk and business run deep down in this rich family.
Bilzerian holds bachelor of arts degree in history from Vanderbilt University and also an Master Of Business Administration degree from Macquarie University in Australia. He wrote a famous book named America: Love It Or Leave It – So I Left that explains his reasons why he left US. Stating, that is not so favorable to entrepreneurship as it once was. His critics on the other hand claim that he just tried to avoid taxes.
