2015

At 18, he gained control of his $1.5 million trust fund, which he accused his parents of squandering by purchasing themselves a mansion. His mother, Candi Bennici, stated in 2015, "Of course we didn’t touch his money... It was in a trust fund. We couldn’t have touched it if we wanted to. They were trying to get it when he was 17, and we were trying to protect it. Luckily the Marin courts were very good about it and didn’t give it to them". He later said, “I’d gotten out of the teenage phase and realized my parents weren’t doing anything wrong but were trying to protect me”
