Biography

Pablo Henrique Costa Marçal was born on 18 April 1987, in Goiânia, Goiás, the son of a civil servant and a maid. At the age of 18, he began his career as a call center attendant at the now-defunct Brasil Telecom.[5]

After graduating in law, he began working at a family business, until he became a consultant, where he began selling personal development courses on the internet. Marçal became famous for his coaching and his fortune in 2024 reached ($35M).[6]

He began to gain prominence in the mass media in 2022, when he led an expedition to Pico dos Marins — one of the highest peaks in the Serra da Mantiqueira — which required the rescue of firefighters due to the exposure of 32 people to life-threatening risks.[7] [8]

Controversies

Financial scams

In 2010, at 23 years old, Marçal was found guilty for being in a street gang, which diverted money from the banks in 2005, when he was 18 years old. The group created fake websites of financial insititutions and sent emails to steal personal information of victims using a Trojan horse. Marçal confessed to having collaborated with the group but denied knowing the illicit acts. In 2019, his sentence was revoked after passing the statute of limitations.[9] [10]

Treatment of workers

Marçal is the owner of the company Plataforma Internacional,[11] which is being investigated for disregarding sanitary regulations using the COVID-19 pandemic, such as the use of medical masks and social distancing.[12] [13]
