Military service?

Why is nothing mentioned about his short lived military career? 2603:8080:9B00:1E7:4511:3229:6169:FFE1 (talk) 19:48, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

2603:8080:9B00:1E7:4511:3229:6169:FFE1 You can add additional information about his military career if you wish, IP. Make sure to cite reliable sources. ZaniGiovanni (talk) 14:12, 9 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@2603:8080:9B00:1E7:4511:3229:6169:FFE1

He was also a police officer that needs to be added. 2604:3D09:A27D:A600:31F4:E307:EB47:3D74 (talk) 20:30, 26 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Again, we need reliable sources for everything you want to add. The (US) military career is mentioned already (he was kicked out); the Armenian military career seems to have required less media attention. As far as I know, that is why he dropped out of the media focus in 2018. At least until that point, he was also not a police officer. --Enyavar (talk) 11:54, 28 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Poker player status overrepresented in lead section?

Possible exaggeration on Bilzerian's status as a poker player in the lead section:

- Opening with "poker player" as opposed to "social media influencer" despite a limited professional poker career and being widely known for the latter.

- "His poker achievements and claims, such as winning $11 million in a single night, have brought him fame...", this statement should be more specific that the $11 million win is a claim made by Bilzerian himself and not a verified achievement. 2001:8003:9153:3200:C5B9:343:EC99:9CDC (talk) 08:00, 8 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request from June 27, 2024

“ Paul was convicted of various securities law violations in 1989, and in 1993 was ordered to pay over $30 million of his allegedly illegal profits to the SEC.”

The word “allegedly” should be removed. He was convicted, so its no longer an allegation. Sorry, wikipedia noob, hopefully someone can edit. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 173.79.146.239 (talk) 06:14, 27 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
