Oprah Made $12 Million For One Tweet
E Online – According to Market Watch, Winfrey racked in a whopping $12 million for merely writing about how she was able to lose weight and still eat bread. What?! We love bread. We can tweet about bread all day. And she didn’t even have to use all 140 characters. So unfair, right? Well, this is how it happened… First of all, it’s Oprah. That should be the end of it, but there’s more to it. Her post, which was posted earlier today and included a 30-second video clip, was to promote her journey with Weight Watchers—and let’s not forget, she is the largest individual stakeholder in Weight Watchers International Inc. “I lost 26 pounds, and I have eaten bread every single day,” she said in her testimonial clip. An hour after O sent her story into the Twitterverse, Weight Watchers shares climbed slightly over $2 a share, and since Winfrey owns roughly 6 million shares, the surge in share prices made the celeb $12 million just like that.
This has to be illegal. Theres absolutely no way this can be allowed. This is like some insider trading collusion type of shit. Oprah can just hop on twitter and say some shit and make herself 12 million bucks? How the fuck is that not a conflict of interest?
Especially considering this is a bold face lie. Bitch you aint eating bread and losing weight. You’re just not. You will not lost 26 pounds while eating bread every day. Its just facts. Science. Unless you eat like one slice of bread and thats it. So Oprah is out here spewing straight LIES and making BANK off it. If it wasnt so goddam American, I’d hate her for it. She’s probably got her her stock broker on the phone like “Listen I’m about to drop this complete bullshit lie on Twitter, I want you to sell as soon as the price skyrockets, right before these motherfuckers realize you cant actually lose weight stuffing your face with bread!”
Just be ready, Oprah. Be ready when the SEC comes in wearing windbreakers ready to raid your whole empire because your fat ass is lying about Weightwatchers. I mean look at this shit:
CNBC – Oprah Winfrey just made more news, saying she lost 26 pounds on herWeight Watchers diet. Even better, her wallet got a lot fatter. That’s because Oprah is a board member and large share owner of the company. She’s made a fortune since her October investment. Using a price of $13 a share from Tuesday afternoon, that means she’s made $61 million on her total investment. On a per-pound basis, that’s $2.36 million of profits gained for each pound lost.
Orpah just sitting around lying about eating bread and losing weight and making a goddam FORTUNE doing it. Cant knock the hustle.
