Albert Verlinde is annoyed by Dave Roelvink’s confession that he has been in a clinic to kick alcohol and drugs. According to the show connoisseur, it is one big advertising stunt.
Dave Roelvink made all the headlines yesterday by confessing in a video on Instagram that he was in a clinic two years ago to kick alcohol and drugs. During the video, Dave also advertised Najib Amhali’s addiction clinic, where he says he has been involved in the background for a year.
advertising stunt
According to Albert Verlinde, it is therefore just one big advertising stunt. “I’m mixed up about it. It’s great that he was kicked out more than two years ago. That’s fantastic. If you’re so deep in shit (…) and you tell that after two years, that’s wonderful in itself,” he begins his story in Shownieuws.
Dan: “The only thing that I sincerely regret, I personally think that, is that the beautiful story he tells there and that it is instructive for anyone who may encounter it, that he immediately linked that he and Najib Amhali opened that clinic. in Abcoude and that he hopes that he can help people there.”
Type of commercial
It doesn’t come across as honest that way, says Albert. “Then it almost seems, and I think that’s sincere, a kind of commercial. Why are you announcing it two years and two months later? From: ‘Do you also want to kick the habit? Coincidentally, I have a clinic in Abcoude, come there!’ I had a bit of a weird feeling about that.”
He continues: “It is the reverse operation. Look, if you say, ‘Guys, I’m going to run that clinic with Najib Amhali, and if you ask me why, I ran into this myself.’ I think that’s a different order. This is the order: I tell what I have and oh yes, I am working on that clinic. Turn it around!”
‘Do you make money with it?’
Beau van Erven Dorens had Dave on his talk show just before. He asked him: “I have to ask, since we had Winston Gerschtanowitz on the program, when it comes to social issues and business: do you also earn money with it?”
Dave then: “Ehhh, definitely not now, no. A lot of money is now going into it, but of course it is also the intention that we will earn money with it, because the more we can invest in it, the better.”
make ends meet
Ultimately, Dave hopes to make ends meet from his work at the clinic. “I prefer to do as little of the rest as possible and I really enjoy this when we see what we do for people’s lives to pass on what you have experienced yourself.”
“I want to put all my time into that, but it’s just a business, so yes, definitely,” he concludes.
