DarksydePhil / TheyCallMeDSP / Phil Burnell: General Discussion #2

[YokuNama]

Phil's fatal flaw was assuming he's entitled to payment for hours he literally did no "work." He's the kind of asshole who'd think he should be paid for commute time from home to work, let alone during his "weekend" day. Only lawyers, whores, and plumbers command that kind of money.

The irony in this is Phil just went on a rant about how lazy the top streamers are yet a day or 2 later he expresses the exact same qualities of said streamers by being lazy himself.

"Rules for thee but not for me." -Some guy here.

Phil has groomed all the free-thinking people out of his audience so he's left with just the complete idiots he can manipulate and bullshit. It's the reason why every time some one looks into a whales real life they always end up being handicapped or mentally disabled in some way. Phil fully knows who and what his audience is and he doesn't care as long as the money keeps coming in. He knows anybody with even the slightest bit of intelligence above mouth drooler isn't going to put up with the blatant hypocrisy of stream ethics he puts on other people but not himself and being yelled at for not opening their wallets.

13 year legacy resulting in a squadron of morons doing whatever you say while being a lonely laughingstock in every other aspect of life. Great job DSP.

Does it even matter where he lives? He spends 95% of his life inside his house in his South African-tier (in his mind) gated community. The best thing he could do is move to somewhere with low tax and ensure it had a good AC system. Of course, he won't do that because he's irrationally afraid of stepping out of his gated community unless absolutely necessary (all reasons being food/alcohol-centric).

He's got what? 4-5 years max left before his channel becomes dead, he has zero put away, and, correct me if I'm wrong, but the bank owns a large portion of the WAkhando. I think the most likely scenario is that this super successful individual will be living with his parents by his mid-40s. I guess at this point he's just banking on his inheritance seeing him through for the rest of his life but given his spending habits it'll only last him a couple of years.

What I always find the most interesting with DSP is how little he's planned for the future. Anyone can see that content creation is a young man's game so you'd think he'd have actually done some contingency planning and worked out what to do when people started ditching his channel. As I see them the options were: 1. Manage your money from an early stage and make sure you've got enough money to cover your back, given that Phil has no kids to spend money on or leave assets too this isn't really a large amount of money (assuming he didn't get addicted to mobile games in the first place). 2. Find a way to carry on his career once his content becomes stale, e.g. some kind of video game journalism or commentary (even if he just gets supported to tweet via patreon). 3. Adapt his content to his ageing audience or become one of those comfy gaming channels that a lot of people like to watch, for example that old woman who plays skyrim that people love. Instead of those he chose option 4. Be an ungrateful, entitled prick and live paypig to paypig.

I worked in a lab for a couple of years recently and the supervisor viewed all the issues as being a result of his staff's laziness and unwillingness to commit to the cause, when in reality his refusal to drive the research forward, engage, or even speak with us was the major issue and causing the morale to be rock-bottom. I remember talking with someone and saying that his ship is sinking due to his own incompetence and he's blaming anything he can without considering pointing the finger at himself. I've always seen Phil as the same, the reason I don't really mind how slow Phil's ship is sinking is because it keeps his hopes up that he's somehow going to get an out, and the longer he experiences that feeling the harder the crash is going to be. It's going to be glorious when the house of cards collapses and the gin tweets it produces are going to be incredible.

In my sperg post about Phil moving "back home" I included some stuff about all the properties.

Spoiler: Properties

The bank still owes a part of the Wakhando @actually might know how much.
But let's say he can he sells it and has $275K in his hand after the sale and he might get, what $120K from his parents ghetto shack that will give him $400K'ish to retire on.

If he was to do as you suggest and move to Texas or Florida and pivot his business he might not be fucked, but if he just stays in Washington I'd say he more fucked than Khet in the bathroom at her work.

 

[Iron Hamster]

So he mentioned it just to build anxiety in his wheely club then, fuck he's a useless fat faggot

His boy-that-cried-wolf tactic as already overplayed.

Phil might be right on this one, it sure looks like a shithole.

And it got substantially better with just his move out.

Ok. It would appear he took off because he's been found out

A sound early retirement plan would put you in a position where you just take out the money gained from interest. In the UK at least I have heard it suggested to have approx. £1m spread across funds etc, some of the tried and tested portfolio strategies will average you about 6% interest p/a allowing you to live off between £50-60k p/a while keeping money for the unexpected and to pass on after you die. Obviously Phil doesn't have to worry about passing on his inheritance so he could probably get away with half that, and maybe they could work some shitty jobs to top it up if they needed to but the issue is that he hasn't planned at all. Sure he'll get some money from his parents but I think if he still has the WAkhando he'll refuse to move back to CT so he'll sell his parent's place, which is probably actually the worst thing he can do, he'd be better off selling the WAkhando and moving back to CT or downsizing somewhere else and leasing out his parent's home to bring in some steady income. If that rent estimate is correct, $1,800 per month would be a godsend for someone in Phil's situation, and he can just sell it later on down the line.

The issue with Phil is that he only cares about satisfying himself in the moment. If he was on a desert island and you offered him a glass of water now or 10,000 litres of water in an hour he would take the glass of water 10 out of 10 times. If he sells his parent's house then that money will vanish within a year or two and then he's right back in the same position. I just feel at this point that he's going to be on welfare before he's 50, I know it's Phil and every time people make these assumptions some retarded luck sees him through, but he's 40 very soon and he's been in the twilight of his streaming career for some time now.

 

[DarksydePhil's Tits]

can get you toxoplasmosis

Well, I guess we have another possible reason for Phil's mental state.

 

[Iron Hamster]

It's possible he was crying all morning that some guy got banned for 2 weeks on twitch for saying she had a boyfriend while not one person has even acknowledged Phail's existence after his jealousy rant.

So Jidion6 just got a 14-Day Ban on Twitch, for...
Saying that Pokimane has a boyfriend that dicks her down everynight.

Powerleveling here, but I'm an outdoorsy-person who enjoys camping, hiking, kayaking, etc, and it's been my intention to move to a state like Washington eventually, because that's what it's known for. Phil picked one of most scenic states in the country to live in, just to become a hermit and never experience any of it.

Phil is a complete bugman and city rat. I'm sure he'd be more terrified of being in the woods or a mountain trail where he can't quickly Doordash some slop for himself to D'VOUR than going to a Burger King where there's Maskless Partygoers shooting up heroin in front of the entrance.

 

[PillCosby]

he said he wouldn't talk about it, but confirmed it wasn't himself, his son Jasper, or his fat wife

so we can only conclude it was either something financial, or legal i.e the recent update in the foreclosure saga (pending sale), or something to do with his parents

He confirmed it wasn’t his wife? I doubt it. False flag. They’re fighting and doing awful. There’s no happiness in his soul- and it’s all simmering under the surface. The wife is probably getting the old “put a little make up on it” treatment- and staying at her sisters.

As much as I'd love to see Kat move in to Officer Sanders' broken-down van, I'm very sure that's not happening.

With the kind of degenerates that watch Phil he should move sanders in and play up the I live with 2 hot sisters to the wheelchair's. It might be the angle that gets Derich off his lazy ass and he starts tipping

 

[Derich 2nd of coomland]

Working on the idea that Phils parent go away and he gets their ghetto shack and sell both Wakhando and it, gets around $400K and moves to Texas. Would that be a better situation for him long term?

With the $400K he can pay any and all back taxes and straight up buy something like this:

Spoiler: Irving Texas

Spoiler: Interior

Weather

Cost of Living

Spoiler: Corpus Christi

Spoiler: Interior

Property Tax

From what I can gather Texas only have property Tax and sales tax, so it seems he would be way better off there.

 

[Pandalee’s Tits]

I’ve never heard anyone that instead of scooping daily, they’d wait for a week and then completely dump the cat litter.

Not only is it wasteful and nonsensical, it’s most importantly extremely unhygienic, can get you toxoplasmosis and puts the cat at risk of getting a complicated urinary tract infection.

Jasper’s the only creature in the wakhando I feel sorry for, no domestic animal deserves such incompetent owners.

Not to mention probably twice as much effort. There’s no good reason to do it.

 

[Kosher Dill]

With the $400K he can pay any and all back taxes and straight up buy something like this:

With his current income and expenses he can already pay off his back taxes. He just chooses not to.

If he got a lump sum of $400K he'd buy a new BMW or two and then blow the rest on Champions. And if we assume he wouldn't do that, there's also no need for him to move.

There's no income tax in TX so the property taxes are killer. Real bad.

I was more thinking for his future. At some point his income will take a dip it might be a few years until it happens, but it will.

We all know that currently he doesn't have an income problem but a spending problem, I still think that long term he would be better off if he moved away from Washington as I'm guessing that it will get more expensive to live in in the future.

I might very well be wrong about that, but aside from whatever tax hell the place might turn into the cost of living is on the higher side from what I can see. So relocating to a place with even lower taxes and cost of living would make some sense.

Phil will never leave Renton unless he gets kicked out of the wahkahndo. While he'll bitch and moan about "taxes" like there's somewhere he could live without paying any, leaving the wahkahndo would be one of the biggest blows to his ego. And that's not even considering that his credit is fucked after his begruptcy, so it's unlikely that he'd be able to get a reasonable mortgage to get a new condo.

All of his "problems" with Washington are entirely self inflicted. It isn't their fault that he refuses to save money or that he whales on gacha or that he orders so much food on doordash or that he took on more debt than he was willing to pay back or that he doesn't put a portion of his money away for his taxes. He has no one to blame but himself.

 

[Muu]

Oh, great, he doesn't even tell us. Poor derich.

 

[Optimus Prime]

I know it's Phil and every time people make these assumptions some retarded luck sees him through, but he's 40 very soon and he's been in the twilight of his streaming career for some time now.

Really, Phil's luck actually works in reverse simply because of how much he's going to be fucked once the few whales he has eventually abandon him. Because he's sailed through an incredible amount of shit of his own causation with little to no consequences, in addition to just being a terrible human being, he's never actually learned anything from his mistakes.

Except Leanna. Oh boy did this one completely catch him off guard while everybody else saw it coming a mile away. He took her for granted, finally put in for the ring when he realized she was finally starting to gravitate away from his sorry ass...and he still hasn't recovered from the fact she refused and wrested herself completely from his control. Phil is paranoid as hell so obviously he wants control over everything and to have something on the level of his companion completely shattered his world. We all know his current marriage is a lie and is ultimately for appearances, like everything Phil does in the comparison to the Great Gatsby, the success is a front and he is desperate to appear as something he's not. For Gatsby it was all for a girl - for Phil it's all for himself.

Everything else, though? He hasn't learned anything and so never took appropriate action to prepare. He takes the steaming thing for granted and once that dries up...well, he'll be bitching about not having money for food because he can't afford fucking home delivery any time he wants.

 

[Kosher Dill]

I was more thinking for his future. At some point his income will take a dip it might be a few years until it happens, but it will.

It won't be a "dip" though, it's not like he's slowly bleeding contributors or anything. It's just 3 guys plus his passive income of about $1000/month from old Youtube spam videos.
The future of Dave is: 100% of today's income, then a big jump down to 70%, then 40%, then 10%. No in-betweens. Really the only planning he can do is saving his money today so that when the storm hits he can get himself into a living arrangement he can afford with only the passive income plus a minimum-wage job.

Here's my future pig plan: he should divorce Kat before she qualifies for the really good alimony, move back in with his parents, and rent out the WAKhando. Let someone else pay most of his mortgage. Meanwhile continue e-begging but save every penny and rebuild his credit so that he'll be able to hit the ground running in one fashion or another if he outlives his parents.
