I kind of refuse to believe the Mars stuff is a scam because I refuse to believe anyone is actually stupid enough to believe he's serious.
People often have no idea what’s possible, and even less idea on what timeline is reasonable or realistic.
It’s a key reason why government officials get away with being useless and complete charlatans - it’s hard to frame a realistic path to success for someone, without contextual knowledge and experience.
It’s the magic of conmen. They exploit this.
