As the Jamaican sprinter’s manager had pointed out, Usain Bolt was made aware of this incident on January 11, 2023. This was when he discovered the weird anomalies in his account after losing several millions of dollars. Bolt’s account was immediately put under review by the Jamaican investment firm Stocks and Securities Limited (SSL).
Reflecting on this incident, Bolt tweeted lyrics from his song Cryptic World. In the tweet, he writes, “In a world of lies, where is the truth? The history evil, what is the root? Money.” He is trying to call out everyone who, in greed for money, causes heinous acts like stealing and money laundering.
The song was released on Bolt’s YouTube channel on 7 October 2022 and had over 700K views. It was released to speak out against the world’s rampant societal and structural problems. Bolt never knew he would be a victim of something he stands so vehemently against.
In this massive multi-million dollar fraud, Bolt was one of the 20 clients affected at the investment firm SSL. A former employee of the firm is currently being scrutinized for his previous role in another massive financial fraud in Jamaica.
According to Gleaner, Bolt’s portfolio has reportedly been defrauded of $6 million in stocks and bonds, while other clients have lost a total of $4 million. Walker, Bolt’s manager, could not state the impact of this fraud on Usain Bolt as investigations are still ongoing.
Usain Bolt retired from athletics in 2017 and has an estimated net worth of around $90 million. In 2016 alone, he earned $31 million in prize money, sponsorship deals, and appearance fees. The fans all over the world are hopeful that justice is served to the former track and field star.
