Ever wanted to earn money by partying? Well, Michael Tommasiello is living that dream. He gets paid to party... and post about it on Twitter and Instagram.
So how exactly does he generate revenue for himself, you might be asking?
Well, according to the New York Daily News, Tommasiello gets paid up to $1,000 per post by brands like Perrier and Jameson who invite him to parties he subsequently posts about on Twitter and Instagram.
If this all sounds very Gossip Girl-esque, it's because it is.
So what's Tommasiello's secret?
How did he go from a relatively incognito guy working in finance (oh, and he did quit his day job, if you're wondering) to the dude who now gets past the velvet ropes at all the hottest clubs?

It's because he "became pals with practically every doorman in the city."
"People talk down to them, but don't realize how much power they actually have," Tommasiello stated.
It's heartening to know that the Long Island native, through propriety and kindness, was able to transcend the party barriers.
Clubs whose bouncers used to slam doors in his face now welcome him with a glass of champagne. Which sounds like a pretty baller lifestyle, if you ask us.
Party on, Mike.
