The PROBLEM with Instant Gratification

from The Brett Johnson Show · host Brett Johnson

Instant gratification can be a poison that tarnishes the well. Brett spent many years chasing instant gratification by breaking the law because he wanted money quickly and easily. Brett has served his time for his crimes and has an important message to share: If you're looking to be successful in life, it's not going to happen overnight. ► Brett Johnson Show Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thebrettjohnsonshow/ ► Brett Johnson Show Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/p/The-Brett-Johnson-Show-100086202897738/ ► Criminal Thoughts Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/@criminalthoughtspodcast ► Brett's Twitter: https://www.x.com/gollumfun Follow more of Brett: https://www.thebrettjohnsonshow.com Watch Brett Johnson on Lex Friedman: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cC1LFC0KFSw Watch Brett Johnson on the Jordan B Peterson Podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cz0GVLzzYlg ABOUT BRETT Brett Johnson. Former U.S. Most Wanted Cybercriminal. Now Good Guy. The United States Secret Service called Mr. Johnson "The Original Internet Godfather" for his role in refining modern financial cybercrime. Or to put it another way: Brett was convicted of 39 felonies, placed on the U.S. Most Wanted List, escaped from prison, and… he built the first organized cybercrime community, Shadowcrew was a precursor to today's darknet and darknet markets, and it laid the foundation for the way modern cybercrime channels operate today. Johnson was sentenced to 90 months in Federal Prison. End of story? Not hardly. Brett found redemption through his sister, his wife Michele, and finally the FBI. He was given the chance to turn his life around. He took it. Today, Brett is considered one of the leading authorities on cybercrime, identity theft, and cybersecurity on the planet. He works hard to protect businesses and consumers from the type of person he used to be.
