This is the first year where if you get more than 600 dollars it needs to be reported, until now I think it was either 20k ot 13k.
The law has been messy... it was for a while $20k AND 200 transactions to generate a 1099-K, then it got changed for the 2021 tax year during the COVID relief packages. What moron congressman thought it was a good idea to slide that into that bill beats me. At least before, if you had a few massive transactions, it didn't change things, and if you had a lot of small ones (say for like Girl Scouts who use Venmo) it didn't change things.

But because it's such a bad idea, and super unpopular, it got pushed back 3 times. The 2024 tax year is the first year where the $600 threshold will be in place, maybe. It was changed as late as November/December so don't be shocked if it gets delayed again. The amount of people who will start getting 1099-Ks for doing not much of anything is going to be crazy. Using the Girl Scouts example, $600 is like 120 boxes, or about 10 cases of Thin Mints. And there's no online platform that you can use to get around this, at least I don't think so.

Going back to Phil, he's always been over the $20k & 200 transactions threshold. Based on what he claimed in business income on the bankruptcy, he's at least been smart enough not to exclude that income from taxes. So nothing will change for him.
 
Easiest explanation of why DSP needs a tax guy: he’s fucking lazy
Speaking of which.

It's possible I've missed some important lore along the way, but is there any independent evidence of Phil's dodgy tax guy?

I would have thought that if Phil had in fact under-paid his taxes due to bad advice/mis-management then he would have had a very good legal claim against Mr. Tax Attorney, but I've not heard anything to suggest Phil even pursued the matter.

Knowing Phil's inability to accept blame (and more importantly his need to project innocence) is it possible he just invented Mr. Tax to explain why he landed in BACKTAX HELL and really needs your help?
 
Grifting, spineless pajeet wants easy views and money based on where the wind blows. Where's the mystery?
If you are on Mutahar's level of YouTube DSP is not what brings views. DSP is good enough for a mention, but otherwise he is just no relevant enough. That's like selling coke on a streetcorner while you are moving containers.

I personally think it is way simpler. He follows Phil's decade of decline (TM) and has the chance to talk to him.
 
I like Mutahar and can't for the life me of me understand why he'd suddenly be buddy buddy with DSP after ripping into him so often during his streams and podcasts.
Because the kino casino wants him on. They want to get as much benefit off DSP as possible while this lasts. I thought this was obvious already. For Mutahar, it's 2hr of playing a game, for them it's a lot more. For DSP it's even more. And they're only having Muta on because they couldn't get Metokur, and he's the next best thing. Because he's a guy who's publicly made fun of DSP before and has a big platform.
 
HOLY SHIT... he finally made scenes so he doesn't have to do the boomer resizing of camera when transitioning through screens

It only took 16 years of being on Youtube to learned how to do it!
Is it sad that I am surprised that he didn't have any scenes? I just assumed that everyone using OBS had a few scenes they could swap through. It's such a simple thing to set up and it makes your life so much easier that...ok, I'm an idiot. This is Phil we're talking about. I should have known.


As far as Mutahar goes, I used to watch him but I couldn't handle how much of an alarmist he is.
 
AI chat summaries are the only quality aspects of Dave's streams.

So Dave called out ItsAGundam and Memology101 because of some Discord screenshots someone sent him on Xitter. No clue if it's doctored but either way I'm sure they'll have some choice words for Dave after this. Kino Casino and their dents really gave him new founded ego boost.

It's been a long while since he's ever been this obnoxious.

And it only took such a tiny amount of ego stroking. Anyone want to try imagine what kind of unimaginable douche nozzle he'd be if he were actually successful instead of just being gassed up by false friends?

This guy really needs to get his shit pushed in more. This arc is definitive proof, for anyone that needed it, that DSP should not be treated well by anyone (even when it's just ironically liking him).

It's a little before my time, or at least when I was paying as much attention to Phil, but I vaguely remember his original tax guy turned out to be some accountant (or similar position) guy in CT that was a family friend or something. It sounded like it was less a "tax guy" and more someone who probably gave Phil some tips for filing once. Then Phil tried to throw him under the bus when he ended up owing a bunch of back taxes.

I think Phil definitely has a tax guy now/has had one since he was told he owes backtaxes. And to give Phil the tiniest bit of credit, it's one of the few times I'll say he made the right choice hiring someone to do his taxes for him because Phil has clearly shown time after time he is way too inept to handle even the simplest of tasks.
 
How dare you detractor fucks dare be in a discord server and play games together, and share memes. Like what the fuck are y'all friends or something?
This whole segment is just so incredibly unhinged. He's an actual retarded fuck, who thinks he's better than everyone else.

This is the genuine piece of shit DarksydePhil coming out. Gotta hand it to KC for bringing him back. And this guy wonders why the people in the FGC still hate him after more than a decade.

Edit: I think today's promo will be my new goto example for people who are confused why DSP is so loathed.

Yes, the tax accountant attorney whatever guy. The morahn from CT who didn't understand Washington taxes. He told Phil he'd never have to pay taxes again! Nothing he could do!

KC put a battery in that man's back and we are getting some genuinely unhinged behavior. Let's see how far this goes.
 
I love how he used to say "im not about drama, im just a guy playing videogames"... but since Kino Casino retards created the monster, DSP is all about drama. Rich, trolls, more trolls, muta, even more trolls, watching detractor streams live, now Itsagundam and memo. DRAMA DRAMA DRAMA!

This is probably the closest to the real Phil Burnell. It's the same thing that the FGC saw, that he isn't the "heel" of the community, but he's just a piece of shit.

BTW all of this new success is only because he found another group of detractors that hates a shared enemy. He only got praise from KC for shitting on RTU. The very thing that he hates that people do to him. Phil has mentioned RTU more than he mentions anybody these days. Dance on his grave, I don't care, but don't pretend like you're some guy making "nice" content.
