    I have watched the CNBC video which I assume is like a video version of that article, or at least made in connection to the written articles.

    Even though Jimmy Zhong is quite obviously guilty, I kind of feel for the dude. Seems like a highly insecure individual who went through a lot and used absurd amounts of money just to feel loved. Even in the part where he reveals a lot about his schemes to undercover investigators just to show off. He wanted to be their friend!

    Again, not an excuse. But I do have empathy for him.
