If you check the Patreon daily chart on the right (set it to all), you will find that not only was the Patreon already growing before the videos, it actually dipped in the immediate aftermath, then started growing again to it's high of ~$933 in the month of April 2018 (not counting the autist who gave him $1,000 this past month).
Exactly, to the highest, it's ever been after the Pewdie Pie video. Chris' Patreon was shit until Jan 2018, which was a month and a half after PP video. Now it's back down to where it was on Chris' own steam, which is not a bad thing. It would be a little better if Chris got another famous Youtuber to mention him, and he sent out orders on time. That won't happen for a while.

He actually earned around the same amount before and after the video (~400-500), but whatever floats your boat.

The numbers are there yo.

In Jan-March he made the most, which was post video. In the past few months, he's been making less than 350, which is the most current and furthest from the video. It also speaks to how small Chris' fandom is and how disliked he is amongst Internet culture. Chris only got less than 1,000 dollars per month regularly on Patreon not including Mr. Cherry. Pewdie got 5,000,000 views for making videos featuring Chris. That's 5,000,000 new potential Patreon customers and ebay buyers. Chris should have been rich by now.
 
Has Chris ever had to file income taxes on all this crap he sells online? He markets it as his business. Want to see the monkey dance? Make the Monkey deal with the IRS. Given how he sells things, and promptly tells every one, and the records kept by the Christory community, it would be quite entertaining to see how he gets out of that one.

Oh also Hi.

Contrary to popular perception, the IRS doesn't trip over itself to shake down random hicks for chump change. You have to deal with more cash than Chris does to attract their interest.

But then you'd expect to see the effect in the immediate aftermath, not over 2 months after the video was uploaded. Also, you would expect a huge uptick in $, then a slow decline, Chris kept growing at a somewhat-steady rate.

This reminds me of something Ethan Ralph said, he said that he managed to get his momentum back after getting out of prison by immediately settling into a routine, that's the most important part of any sequential work, be it comics, podcasts..etc, it has to come out consistently on-time, and Chris fucked it up.

It's well known that most people will not pay for online content, you can, at very best, get like %3-5, that's why almost all web content providers/service start-ups that target consumers have a free version, because if they don't, nobody will even try them.

RedLetterMedia for example has 839,085 subs on YouTube, but they only have 6,311 patrons. Now consider that we're talking about a very high quality content creator here, and you will see what I mean.

Fair, I mean I know people with out a tugboat who actually solely make their living off streaming and online merching and apparently they don't file taxes. I'm just wondering if it ever has been brought up to Chris, given how he likes to attract attention to them selves... That and it would amuse me to end if Chris' saga with avoiding any form of adulting, or dealing with consequences ended because he got nailed by the IRS for god knows how long of back taxes owed.

There's no need. There are people who make tons more steady income reselling thrifted items on ebay, who don't have to file taxes. Rules for ebay, and you have to meet both of them to file taxes
You have to make
1. 20,000 dollars
on
2. 200 items
to get a tax form. That's it.

You have to meet both of these requirements a the same time.

Oh man, what if he actually does decide to sell long-lost home videos of him and his old parents from the 80s and 90s?

I honestly don't see that being out of the question.

Even if people buy them unironically, him selling autographs and kitsch junk every week is just going to flood a very small niche market which will eventually dry up.

People were saying the exact same thing since the day he started selling medallions years ago. The autists have not stopped throwing cash at him even after all this time. It's mind boggling, but Chris always manages to find a way to hawk his shit. I don't expect it to stop any time soon. Autism always finds a way.

If you were an IRS employee with a comfortable, union-protected government job, would you give a fuck about Chris's minor shit? No. No you wouldn't. No one else does either.
