\n Dan Bilzerian\u2019s new pot company may soon go up in smoke.<\/p>\n

The latest venture from the hard-partying, self-proclaimed \u201cKing of Instagram\u201d \u2014 Ignite International, which sells a smorgasbord of weed-related products \u2014 burned through $50 million last year. Ignite lost $43 million on expenses related to marketing and promotion as well as office leases alone, according to its annual filing first reported on by Forbes.<\/p>\n

The Canada-based company\u2019s $22 million marketing budget was more than double its annual sales revenue. That cash went toward throwing lavish Ignite-branded parties with free-flowing booze and scantily clad women.<\/p>\n

Indeed, Ignite app<\/a>ears to have footed the bill for Bilzerian\u2019s gun-toting, private jet-flying playboy lifestyle, paying him a salary as well as the travel<\/a> expenses of other companies he owns.<\/p>\n

Bilzerian\u2019s Instagram feed is littered with photos of him on yachts, private jets, playing chess while surrounded by stacks of cash and even posing with a massive gun with the Ignite logo carved into its side.<\/p>\n

Ignite sells a wide range of products, from water bottles and vodka to THC vape pens and CBD oils. Forbes\u2019 cannabis reporter, however, wrote that he has never encountered a product from Ignite in the wild.<\/p>\n

The company, which began trading publicly in Canada in January 2019 and trades under the BILZF ticker, has seen its stock value plummet more than 70 percent in the ensuing year and a half, to 70 cents.<\/p>\n

Bilzerian is no stranger to losing money. The 39-year-old entrepreneur recently lost a book deal with Simon & Schuster because he was too busy partying to deliver a manuscript, Page Six reported\u00a0last month.\n <\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
