Coming back to Contessoto’s life, he is a first-generation immigrant whose parents came to America when he was six. He was raised in suburban Maryland with minimal amenities and moved to Los Angeles. He makes about $60,000 a year from his current job and is nowhere close to affording a home in LA when the average home cost is nearly $1 million and drives a weathered Toyota.
Who knew Contessoto’s fortune would turn overnight and he would be a millionaire?
As a matter of fact, Contessoto’s story is shaping in the same fashion as Dogecoin’s developer — Billy Markus — who was unable to buy a used Honda Civic in 2015. At its peak, Dogecoin’s market cap reached more than that of Honda!
Even though Contessoto has no formal training in stock trading, he believes Dogecoin is a long-term player in the field of the crypto world. He feels that if Musk would allow tesla to accept Dogecoin, which might be possible from Musk’s recent tweet signals, this would be a game-changer.
Apart from his financial success in a period of two months, Contessoto’s Twitter handle SlumDOGE Millionaire has more than 31K followers and his youtube channel has grown phenomenally in the last two weeks with more than 66K subs.
