Logan Paul felt he’d struck gold when he spent $3.5 million on a 1st Edition Base Set of Pokemon cards in December 2021. He said it was “sealed and authenticated” at the time.

“I’ve noticed several remarks. They believe I was faking it. “They think it’s a hoax,” Logan explained. “However, that isn’t the case. It isn’t a sham at all. It was terribly depressing to be in that room that night. The intensity in the room was evident, as was the melancholy mood.

It hasn’t stopped him from winning big in other places, too. With former rival KSI, he introduced Prime Hydration, a new sports drink that sold out almost instantaneously.
