iReport —

Yesterday, we reported that a multi-millionaire and blogger had come clean on how he blew through $7 million in just 2 years.

You can read that iReport exclusive here:

But, before running the story, we should have read the date and the tags as it was an April Fools Day Joke by popular personal finance 'guru' Adrian J Cartwood.

AJC, as he prefers to be known, is a genuine multimillionaire (and, he is defintely NOT the guy in the picture!) who writes about his own journey from $30,000 in debt to over $7 million in the bank in just 7 years.

You can read about his true financial position here:
