Gustavo Gordillo, who co-chairs the city DSA branch, lives in a million-dollar Brooklyn house that his dad bought (and had remodeled) for him and his brother; he also paid Gustavo’s rent for years while the Yale grad — well into his 30s — pretended to be an electrician while he worked his way up the DSA ladder.
