No longer "Tips Goal", but he has left up "Tips Total" explicitly (in his own words) because "people seemed more motivated to donate". So yeah, just straight greed, and yet another thing he said he would never do that he's doing.
Edit: MiraiMisaki is a fuckin' genius:
[2019-01-21 05:00:07 UTC] miraimisaki: @WowDoodStaph There are no quality fucking jobs. Look at Phil - he has a degree and look at how many people are lining up to hire him - oh yeah - not many huh? These days most degree holders don't get the quality job that meets reasonable expectations
[2019-01-21 05:00:23 UTC] wowdoodstaph: @MiraiMisaki when has Phil applied anywhere
[2019-01-21 05:00:48 UTC] miraimisaki: @WowDoodStaph exactly why he doesnt apply for one, dummy
[2019-01-21 05:01:05 UTC] wowdoodstaph: @MiraiMisaki you literally made 0 sense right there LUL
MiraiMisaki: @WowDoodStaph LUL that's becuz you are too dumb to get what I was trying to imply. the job market is shit and even phil knows better than to quit streaming to get an "office job" that the trolls keep pestering him about - you know - like you. LIL
Bonus from mastersaruwatari, since renamed: cysarugetchu: @ALmighty1080 by law companies are suppose to say they have openings even if the positions are filled.
