How Did Iman Gadzhi Start Making Money {NEVER Told Anyone This}

So ladies and gentlemen, this is the cold hard,

honest truth of how I actually started making my money.

And this is something people are obsessed with.

And I think I've covered once before, uh,

almost a year ago when I was out in Bali.

But I thought I'd give you guys a little bit more of the juicy little details.

So I'm going to talk about stuff in this video that I've never talked about

ever. In fact,

I'm going to talk about stuff in this video that I almost erased from my mind

and forgot even happen. Um,

and I think it's going to teach you guys a lot of lessons. So here it goes.

As many of you guys know,

I started making money by growing Instagram accounts,

then selling them, then buying Instagram accounts,

then selling paid promotions on them.

I started doing this in 2014 and that's kind of when influencer marketing was

sprouting up and becoming a legitimate thing that brands were spending money on.

And,

and the way that I actually got funds to start buying these accounts was I was

growing some initial accounts and I don't know why,

but for some reason I just started posting photos to do with entrepreneurship or

at least the flashy side of entrepreneurship, a luxury travel cars, this,

that,

and someone actually DM me offering to buy my account and I thought they were

joking. I got put in like a telegram group where people were buying,

selling accounts, selling promotions, et cetera, et cetera.

I actually went ahead and sold that account and that's how I got my first couple

of hundred pounds to then go out and buy some other smaller accounts,

grow them up,

sell some promotions to watch companies to come in as it's old backpacks,

wallets, et cetera. You know, anything you can think of that,

that was the cool thing about having a luxury account and a lot of times I would

find accounts in other niches, for example,

an account just about watches and I would rebrand it to overall luxury so I

could sell more promotions. Now, one of my accounts at the time,

and this was not up for sale,

I think I started this account maybe summer of 2014 actually going to go ahead

and check. This might take me a while. There's 430 posts. Okay. No,

my first post was 14th of December,
