How Much Does It Cost To Be An Instagram Millionaire?

Social media is filled with fake millionaire “gurus” who will teach you the secret getting rich, all for the low price of $5,000. You’ve seen this countless times with Forex, crypto, day trading, dropshipping, coaching other coaches, and so on.

Even if you aren’t a fake guru, cost per wear is a good metric for shopping.
