Following his recent arrest at Los Angeles airport (LAX), Dan Bilzerian's net worth might be at risk following years in the professional poker scene, with the lavish lifestyle that made him a quick Instagram star - but can he maintain it?
While he's now mostly famous as a social media personality as well as a professional poker player, Dan Bilzerian's net worth has always been among the higher figures, due to the fact that he's also a trust fund beneficiary, according to The Wall Street Journal.
Known for his lifestyle as a Playboy, filling his Instagram feed with pictures of yachts, nightclubs and sports cars, Dan Bilzerian's net worth is evidently quite high - but, nonetheless, the gambler came from money and had a good start from his father's fortune.
To kick-start Dan Bilzerian's net worth, his father, Paul Bilzerian, left him an undisclosed sum after working as a corporate raider for years. During decades, Paul has been working to protect his life's assets, considering the fact that there's a Securities and Exchange Commission judgment that has been aiming to take his fortune away - ultimately, the SEC gave up on the pursuit, after 25 years.
According to TMZ, son Dan Bilzerian was arrested last Tuesday December 9, on the oddest of charges: attempting to make a bomb! The professional gambler's order of arrest was issued in Clark County, Nevada, under a charge of possession of an explosive or incendiary device, or possessing the tools to build one from scratch.
The full charge was called "possessing component of explosive or incendiary device with intent to manufacture explosive or incendiary device and possession of explosive incendiary device," according to Las Vegas Review Journal.
In any case, he was arrested at LAX after landing in the California city.
Currently, Dan Bilzerian's net worth stands at $150 million according to Celebrity Net Worth, even despite his stints with the law and the fraud charges that have haunted his father since 1989.
