 Here Are some Things about Dan Bilzerian

1. HOT-TUBBING

Even when it comes down to basic relaxing and luxurious relaxers like kicking back in a hot tub, Dan Bilzerian beats all of us. This thirty-six-year-old (that's right campers -- this wealthy frat boy is actually a full-fledged adult that lives his entire life like an episode of Arthur, jumping from adventure to adventure with the daredevil attitude of a sixteen-year-old boy) is living it up with multiple babes at all times. Here, he's seen with four of his lady-model friends; we're not actually sure if they're models or not, but let's be real -- they may as well be if they aren't already. This stunning group is sailing around the Caribbean in Bilzerian's yacht, looking sexy as ever and enjoying their retreat from the world in his no-rules, no-boundaries party boat. Sounds like a fun time, one that we certainly want more pictures of...

2. LION AROUND

Dan Bilzerian is kind of like a modern American king. We like to pretend that the monarchies in this land were completely abolished when revolutionaries drafted the United States constitution, but who are we kidding? This country is totally ruled by blood monarchies, whether you're considering political families like the Kennedys and the Bushes or the wealth of America that has stayed within the wealthiest American families like the Goldman family, the Walton family, and the Koch family -- as well as the ancestors of Dan Bilzerian.

3. THOSE TANKS THOUGH

Seriously, Dan loves his tanks! If Dan could sell all of his guns (and trust us, he has quite the gun collection. Like, an ARSENAL in his home. As in, please do not ever think you could intrude there and live to tell the tale) in exchange for a couple of tanks, he just might do it -- so long as he's able to fire the big guns on the tank, that is. Remember how we were wondering what it would look like to get all of these ladies in one tank? And speculated that it just may be one of the sexiest tank rides ever to occur? Well... were we wrong? Dan posed in another incredibly frat-boyish way for this shot, surrounding himself with six ladies -- some even wearing a bit more clothing in this shot! How odd... we have to wonder if he went lax on the strict and stringent bikini-only dress code for the day...

4. TALKING WITH FRIENDS

Yup, that is indeed Dan Bilzerian having a chit chat with the current President of the United States, Donald Trump. The two men, who are each way too rich for their own good, get along on a number of subjects and actually talk fairly frequently. Who would have guessed? Who could have known that crazy rich white people all love to hang out together and talk over expensive bottles of water and fruit plates no one seems to be interested in?!

5. POPPING OFF ROUNDS

Dan is a serious gun nut. Like, seriously. If anyone were to be within a hundred mile radius of Dan and suggest changes to the second amendment or restrictions of gun laws, this man would rain hellfire down on that person in the form of gunshot rounds. Who knows why he's so into guns? Perhaps it's because he's a wealthy guy who grew up as a wealthy kid, and he's never had the need to know how to use a gun, so he feels the need to compensate for that somehow by becoming a weapons enthusiast -- but that's just our theory.. what do we know? Dan loves going out to the gun range and firing off some automatic rounds, but not nearly as much as he loves taking some of his lady friends out on the range with him. Looks like they're totally having fun, though we kind of feel bad for those ladies walking around out in that mess in high heels...
