Hacker interview-Gummo

Soft White Underbelly interview and portrait of Gummo, a computer hacker from Jacksonville, Florida.

I've always been a firm believer of this:
It only takes one person to believe in someone. To help them see the potential they have to strive in life!

Life is already hard, people are horrible and evil--- why not spread love, hope, and positivity? Be nice to one another, help each other out.. you never know the cards others may be dealing with 💕

[ThePumpkin]

this interview scared me so much that i had to go and check if there'd been any changes to my bank account

it's still empty. thank god

[micowata]

"I was horrible at school but brilliant when left alone" is a pattern I can recognize in people.

[thomasmccarty]

This guy made millions hacking, lost it, then made millions again in bitcoin, and became a hacker hunter. Needs to be a movie about his life

[diamondstar]

There's nothing more endearing then a genius with humility.

[zRSKYz]

Absolutely love this style of interview. Sit back, shut up, let the person talk until they get tired.

[chickenlittle]

When he's talking about his wife "someone believing in me" while choking up all these years later. That's a perfect example of what we all need and so many never get. So happy and grateful for him

[ciganyweaverandherperiwink]

He looks EXACTLY like what I imagine a really good hacker to look like.

[tomaslekis]

So this guy is too humble. For those of you who aren’t tech savvy, he’s basically a wizard at what he does and was doing it years ahead of everyone else.

[ChuckNutables]

The most beautiful part of this interview is how much he loves his wife. He never shudders once when going over how horrible his childhood was but can barely get through saying how she essentially saved him.

[razamundo]

The way this fella gets choked up about having a real connection with someone, after so many years of neglect and trauma, heart breaking. Roll on my dude, big ups Gummo.

[yewawtmayt]

My man hacked his way out the hood and got the girl. Legend.

[Bitgisa]

Im 35, burned my entire 20s smoking weed and partying, trying to build my life back up, currently studying cyber security with a government funded course and trying to self-teach some web development on the side. It's so hard, there's so much to learn and I'm poor with no income, thinking about smoking weed again everyday but watching this video has inspired me to not give up, thank you.

[NoycieBrv]

He got emotional about his wife's family believing in him but he didn't get emotional about making 10 million dollars that's real.

[craigdanielmaceacher]

Dude did all of that and mastered the computer because the last thing his mom asked him before bed that night was if his computer studies were going ok and he lied. Think about that, it’s so sad and beautiful.

[christinah.]

Soft White Underbelly is getting much better at adding variety to the lineup of videos. Makes it so much more interesting to watch a varied selection of people. Thank you.

[KiaReal]

At the end he says “I hope this helps someone”. It did. It really did. Thank you.

[PatrickHarrison]

watching him talk about his wife and just crying about what she did for him while he was at a bad time in his life is so amazing.

[bryandennis]

He is dropping some SERIOUS knowledge right now. this guy is legendary.

[avi]

Please.... Am begging you! Pls bring this legend back for a part 2!
The world needs to hear his stories!!!
