Creator pitches invention to wealthy man from @frankeinvents

The creator documents Day 5 of his challenge to make $1 million in 10 days with his "wearable water" product. He goes to Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, explaining his strategy to find wealthy investors. After an unsuccessful attempt at holding a sign, he spots and approaches a wealthy man loading shopping bags into a luxury car and attempts to pitch his product. The man initially insults and dismisses him, but the creator persists, demonstrating the bottle's unique wearable feature, which piques the man's interest enough for him to examine it before the video ends.
