Recently, the young “master of denunciations” Niklas Mattei from the town of Gräfenhainichen has become popular in Germany.
Over the course of a year, the guy wrote 4,227 complaints against neighbors, most often for illegal parking. Thousands of people follow his movements around the country. The guy told BILD that, thanks to his popularity, he has already earned more than 1 million euros.
“I had a lot of money before. But thanks to the “master of denunciations” I earned a million,” says Niklas. Although he is criticized on social media and in the streets, he has more than 100,000 followers on Instagram and TikTok. He is often invited to discos, TV shows and city festivals. There are long lines lined up there to take photos with him. For each performance, Niklas takes a round sum, sometimes more than 100,000 euros.
The young man openly admits to extreme stinginess. When he travels, he takes toilet paper from public toilets so as not to buy it himself. To save money, he does not have a girlfriend or go on vacation. He keeps all his money in a savings account and doesn't want to know anything about investment strategies.
“When it comes to my money, I don't take risks. <..> I'm a cheapskate. The comparison to Scrooge McDuck is apt. I don't spoil myself with anything. I continue to tremble over every penny. Money is the most important thing in the world for me.” – he said.
