Plus his liquidity must have taken a hit considering tips have become rather rare (except he who shall not be named uses a sock to tip generously)
This is the key point right here. Phil is making more than ever before, but it's mostly delayed by a month. As we know Phil is awful with money, so I'm sure after each and every 'successful' stream where he hits hit goals, he is blowing some of it on Doordash, gacha, or some bullshit he found on Amazon, and by the time payday comes around he's practically broke cause it's all been spent already. Then he does it again because Phil is retarded and addicted to spending money.

Just got done watching (or well, listening as I was playing MGS1) a restream from yesterday and at one point he said that Khet is allowed to celebrate mother's day because she is a cat mom to Jasper.
Mother’s Day is like Hanukkah. Two kinds of people celebrate it: people who the holiday is actually for, and people who don’t give a fuck and are looking for an excuse to make things about them.
 
Not exactly strange. Considering he hits his goals fairly regularly his income SOUNDS better then before. But he also has heightend his spending (and he has at least one credit card. remember his Switch 2 debacle? "I won't show you my credit card number") But what should never be forgotten: he has rolled all his income into goals. Until this fateful decision to keep owning the trolls he only counted tips for his goal. But now he counts everything. Yt takes a 30% cut of every Super chat, Sticker and memebership while Kick just takes a meager 5% cut. Plus Kick is paying him hourly though I suspect that is just bread crumbs considering his weak viewerbase on Kick. If someone is autistic enough he or she might make a com,parism how his income developed since he rolled everything together. 150$ a day soundsa impressive at first but if for example 100$ of that is a super chat in reality it's just 120$. Plus his liquidity must have taken a hit considering tips have become rather rare (except he who shall not be named uses a sock to tip generously)

In terms of why I can only think of two things: paying his taxes because this retard didn't save up money for something that always comes at the same time or health issues (I would bet it's fat Khet and that is his and only his fault so I call it KARMA)
Doody crunched the numbers previously and Phil's just about back to pre-KC levels of money. An important thing to note is that Phil's income used to be shrouded when he did only tips, now we see it all, which makes it look like there's more. But the thing is is that we're almost down from the Post-KC where dents feel sorry from phil and are emptying their wallets. In another month, I think we'll hit a new period of problems hitting the goals. We're already at the point where most streams are being saved by a 100+ dollar whale mary from Anon, Lance, or Dumpy. Plus there's a few dentractors like DT101 and a few others trying to get daddy's attention.
 
People weirdly need DSP to be in a much worse spot than he is and will go to great mental gymnastics to pretend otherwise.

It's like when people talk about how he's poor and should just quit streaming, or how he would make more an hour working at fast food, etc.

By all metrics the guy makes 6 figures a year playing video games, he's not poor because of his job, he's poor because he's a fat retard and blows money on stupid shit. It's delusional to pretend he doesn't make good money or his job is harder than working retail or a shitty office job.

And honestly he a much better lolcow for it. it's way funnier that this dude makes 6 figures but is always broke because he can't stop spending money on pictures of buff men in wrestling panties.
exactly. Nobody can convince me he doesnt make bank off weirdo parasocials but like you said, its hilarious he makes bands and manages to spend it all on 4 things lol while someone like wings is living in a trailer that his mother owns. We have to admit though that the less $ he makes the better the meltys r.

Wings has significantly more money than DSP because he spends less than he makes, and he does not live in a trailer. Wings' biggest expenditure is fast food while DSP dumps every spare dollar into a mobile game. Neither of them is a picture of financial literacy, but Wings at least works something like an actual job by running Doordash.
 
Really takes some of the fun out of it when he tries to own his lolcow status.

"Hey guys look at me I'm raging tee hee I'm so mad tee hee. AMTUALLY im not really ragequiting though because the devs are bad and made a bad product so its really intellegent business man quitting, so give me money ok?!"
There's a clear difference when Phil gets mad in Street Fighter compared to his fake rage in Call of Duty. He hates playing shooters and knows he's terrible at them, he's just verbalizing that.

Weird. I was thinking the other day how odd it is that a portion of people on here are seemingly desperate to believe DSP is earning more than ever (‘and climbing!’) and has a job we are all insanely jealous of.

The only things I know for 100% certain:
- He’s not making as much as during the king arc.
- I would not trade jobs with him under any circumstances.
- I do not trust Doody to audit him.

DSP not refinancing during the 2.5% interest rate era is under-discussed. I imagine he’s paying in the 5.5% neighborhood, which is going to cost him tens of thousands over the term of his mortgage. Obviously, it’s not nearly as big an L as losing the condo in CT to foreclosure or not outright owning the snortfort by this point, which he clearly could have made happen if he wasn’t a fucking retard.

I trust doody to 'crunch the numbers' as much as I'd trust Khet alone in a room with the last slice of cake.
With respect: Citing doody with anything but scorn means you need to check your head for new dents. He is worthless. His words are dust.

Can he ever really own it though, considering he shares walls with 2 neighbors?

He will never own the land that the shared space multi-family housing unit that he pays for the privilege of sharing walls with other family unit is built on... nor the roof, foundation or pipes found around is mature dwelling which he will own if he lives long enough to see another 20+ years of life... until the IRS puts a lien on it...

so, no is the answer, he will never really own anything but the property tax bill that is conveniently rolled into his mortgage, because if DSP manages to pay off that mortgage, King County Assessors are going to butt fuck what's left of his hole after the Treasury Department gets their pound of flesh.

Doom: The Dark Ages is getting pretty good reviews, so as usual DSP decides to go full-on contrarian so he can claim he's "just being hahnest":



I wonder how long it will take for him to get his ass handed to him by the game and launch into a rant about how he was right about the game sucking.
