All these people are the same, tbh. They think that because it's Youtube™, it was meant to last forever. And some actually are as deluded as shoe0nhead to believe they "work for Youtube". It's like a driver for ubereats thinking he's part of the company or complaining when they say "you know what? we're not doing this anymore". None of them took that money and invested IRL in some actual company that would outlast their YT career. I think only a couple of youtubers actually had the brains to start a real business with their money.
With that being said, Jim's case is a bit different in this specific aspect because he earned that money fair and square and it's being held back unfairly. He did nothing wrong this time.
