A man has gone viral on X after he shared screenshots of withdrawing over $50,000 from his 401(k) retirement account to preorder 500 copies of Grand Theft Auto VI (GTA 6) to sell later at 3x profit.
Sharing a screenshot of what he claimed was his preorder receipt, the user wrote that he had “taken a leap of faith” and entered the reselling business by using funds from his retirement savings.
“I withdrew from my 401(k) and preordered 500 copies of GTA 6,” he posted. “It’s the most anticipated game of all time, and when they sell out, I’ll be there waiting to corner the market. This will 2-3x by Christmas.”
The post quickly gained traction across social media. While some users praised the bold move, many questioned the strategy. Some said digital game downloads and potential restocks could limit resale opportunities.
The individual also shared what appeared to be a preorder confirmation showing the purchase of 500 copies of the game.
Grand Theft Auto VI is one of the most anticipated video game launches in history and is expected to attract millions of buyers when it releases soon.
