Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy appears to have it all, including a self-reported $100m fortune, and a palatial Miami mansion.
But even all of that can't bring you guaranteed happiness, as the internet celebrity's latest rant proves.
He said he's ready to "throw out" his Florida pile - because of annoying issue with his TV.
On Tuesday (16 January), he shared an image of his neutral-toned living room with large windows, an open walkway, and a television encased by what appears to be a marble border.
"People think rich people don't have problems. 'Like gee, what could ever bother Dave and his 100 million dollars?"
However, despite how elegant the room looks, Portnoy's grievance happens to be that fancy-looking TV, which is not centred correctly.
"Well, take a look at how they hung my TV in my new Miami mansion. How do you not center it? It's preposterous. I may need [to] throw this house out and buy a new one now," he complained.

He and the controversial podcaster and UFC colour commentator felt it was "crazy" for people not to root for Andrew Tate, despite his arrest for his alleged human trafficking and rape crimes.
