Holy shit! How does Phil manage to have money problems with such a monthly income?

 

[neger psykolog]

But he's not broke. He's been claiming to be broke since 2013, we know he makes $70,000+/year thanks to folks like @EddyB43 and @SoapQueen1 , and he always goes out and buys expensive shit for himself after a begging video. He only begs like this so he doesn't have to spend his own money on this shit. I don't understand why people still believe Phil's EMERGENCY I NEED MONEY REE videos when he's been telling the exact same lies for almost 5 years now.

Holy shit, how does Phil manage to have money problems with such a monthly income?

Probably has a lot to do with him paying to support two entire households. Neither of which generate any income.
As well as a mountain of debt from other sources (loans/credit cards/car payments etc)

One thought about the Leanna had a BF before she she left DSP theory. If she already had a boyfriend, then why did she have Phil meet her at the ER? I understand letting him know about his car as it was stuck at the mall, but wouldn't she rather have her new man be with her at the hospital?

Playing the part until she was ready to leave.

Holy shit! How does Phil manage to have money problems with such a monthly income?

His expenses pertaining to frivolous spending are wildly out of control, in addition to two mortgages plus the interest on the mountains of debt he currently possesses that have caught up with him.
The way Phil loses his mind every couple weeks and mentions needing money every single pre-stream...he's not nearly a good enough actor to be so accurately portraying someone barely hanging on, living paycheck to paycheck while secretly leaping off a diving board into waves of gold.

 

[Solzhenitsyn]

Holy shit! How does Phil manage to have money problems with such a monthly income?

He doesn't have money problems. He has a spending problem. He wastes his income on microwave meals, fast food, overpriced electronics, and house plants.

 

[Freshtodeath]

He's horrible with money. Just the other day he was screaming at his chat about how he has to have the 400 dollar internet to run his business.

How does his father not sit him down and help him with a budgeting plan? like seriously.

Because he hates his parents. Why would his dad help that little shit? I don't blame him.

I don't blame him if he does. I get moments like that too. Doesn't really bother me since I'm sure others get that feeling as well.

Based on what SoapQueen is saying he makes WAY more than $70k per year. How embarrassing to be that bad with money. Remember awhile back when he said he wasn't gonna be able to marry Leanna or have kids anytime soon due to money problems? He was saying that while likely earning $80k a year. That's WAY over the medium family income. Plenty of dad's with stay at home wives raising 1 or 2 kids on that kinda money. Not Phil. He couldn't even afford more than a $140 Chinese engagement ring. Unbelievable but then again, I guess that's just how street smarts work.

In the magical world of make believe, let's say that Phil strikes it rich for some reason on Twitch and his income increases a shit ton.

How much do you want to bet he'd be sitting in his new bank-owned house in Alaska, whining and cunting on about his debt while his other 6 properties sit empty and unused?

My bet is on him sitting on his sofa and bitching about how his chefs in the restaurant can cook his authentic italian sauce as good as he can and he needs bits and cheers alongside Patreon donations to buy the much needed groceries for the restaurant!

And here we are in the first day of the spookiest month and he failed to reach the Patreon goal, but knowing him he probably is going to steal that Lego Batman costume he saw in the wild and stream god knows what

No he met the goal, just people reduced their pledges (as he asked them to) to avoid being recharged.
To make this reply worth it, he did also say during a recent prestream that he can't actually afford the costume at the moment while panhandling for bits and cheers.

 

[Freshtodeath]

He was making 80k a year in a state with no income tax and GF who was working to support him. Absolutely ridiculous. If you can't start a family on that income then you're never starting one.

"Pledge $1125 to my patreon to see me wear a disguse on halloween! BTW, I can't afford it despite hitting that ludicrous goal.
P.S. Thank you, you fucking worthless human beings, for the pledge!"

So October is going to be another EMERGENCY month so he can get money for that costume.

He doesn't have the stupid batman mask anymore? shame

If DSP renegs on buying a Halloween costume after the funding goal has been satisfied and voting has been conducted, after all those pre-streams saying how special it was to have two goals instead of one, it will be equally as pathetic as when he refused to put together a short Project 7 trailer even after he was specifically paid over several months to do so.

Since I'm now on KiwiFarms, I might as well post my monthly summaries here too. Spoiler tags because this is going to be a huge post.

Spoiler: DSPGaming Monthly Views, record low at 1.58mn

DSPGaming for September 2017 hits a record low of 1.58mn monthly views, down ~270K since last month, new record worst month below February 2017's 1.63mn.

Eagle eyed readers might see August 2015, which is the strikes month & a negative value, it is actually ~2.55mn when you add back the deleted views. Also June 2017 appears to be 1.37mn, but that doesn't account for ~650K views from when DSP privated the entire Persona 5 playthrough & some prestreams.

My rough counts show 715K+ views on new/recent videos (on recent playlists updated during September) out of 1.58mn, ~45% of his views for the month on "new" videos.
Finally this was reached with 753 videos, not as high as June 2017's 765 videos.

Spoiler: KOGaming Monthly Views, record low at 17.87K

KOGaming for September 2017 hits a record low of 17.87K views, down over 35% from August. Not surprising, as there were no new videos, only real views came early in the month from the ALERT & Agents of Mayhem review videos at the end of August. DSP now deems this channel dead thanks to the demonetization issue.

Spoiler: Twitch income, ~$2410 subs & cheers, ~$2400 tips

~$2410 in subs & cheers makes this DSP's 3rd best month, just barely behind April 2017 & well behind the abnormally large August 2017 total of just over $3K.

First month tracking tips & DSP is around ~$2400 with me ignoring presumably several sub $2 tips. If you wonder what DSP will get if the $500 kahntent & $150 PS go buy some fucking headphones 'troll tips' well be pulled, it's ~$1750.

Strangely my tips count is different from SoapQueen1 in the OPPOSITE DIRECTION to what I expected. I expected my tips to be lower since I didn't include an unknown number of sub $2 non-visible tips, yet they're higher by over $80 at ~$2397.77. Also my cheers/subs total is lower by almost $150 at ~$2410.59 - I do ignore some subs when the month count hasn't gone up, and if my raw logs don't confirm a cheer went through I don't include it - I've seen a couple cheers not show up at all in my raw logs in the last week or so.
