From millionaire to bankrupt. Or why Shpak is returning to Russia
Just six months ago, well-known blogger Alexander Shpak was enthusiastically telling his Instagram followers how he would soon become a multimillionaire and live the way he wanted. He intended to invest funds in the construction of villas in Turkey.
Specifically to run a business within the country, the blogger registered a firm. Although it would have been better to register the company in the Netherlands. Such services are offered at the link: https://offshorensk.ru/. In the EU, his chances of making money would certainly have been higher. But what is done is done.
The failed businessman sold his real estate in the Moscow suburbs, packed up his furniture and sent it to Turkey in a container, loaded his dogs onto a plane and set off in search of adventure. And they did not keep him waiting.
As Alexander's followers had told him, the construction cost far more than was originally planned. Moreover, problems arose with documents, permits and the works themselves.
In the end, instead of four villas, only one is practically ready today. And even that is not guaranteed to be commissioned. After all, without this, the property cannot be handed over.

At the same time, according to Shpak himself, he has a debt of $800,000. The money was borrowed from a bank, and friends also lent the blogger funds. But regardless of the source of financing, the money still needs to be repaid.
So Alexander had to advertise dubious figures, for example, a prostitute from Moscow or a candidate for deputy from "Servant of the People" - Yana Borisenko.
Soon Shpak himself plans to return to the Russian capital. The reason is mundane - earnings. All the advertisers are in Moscow. There is no chance of earning enough in Turkey to pay off the debts. Therefore, no matter how you look at it, Alexander will have to return to his homeland. Otherwise, there is a risk of losing the villas in Turkey. Although, it seems that in reality the blogger only has a share in the construction. That is, he is not the 100% owner. The main part undoubtedly belongs to other people, including Salima and her family.
