Yea, that's exactly what he did. He actually says he worked there for a few weeks. Total interview attention whoring in my book. "Oh, I made millions, then immediately connected with with real people by working the grind at McDonald's." BS. No way, did he make any kind of connection in that amount of time other than the ability to score interviews with that "intriguing" introduction.

He does have interesting things to say in the interview, but you can tell the McDonald's thing was relatively meaningless to him. Now, had he done it for a year and lived solely off the wages from working shifts at McDonald's that would be something that likely would have provided a real connection for him. It probably also wouldn't be a story he'd tell in a mere 30 seconds with a smile on his face the whole time.
