This, and what nags me in a weird way is his asinine belief that trolls are the reason he's in this situation. Trolls caused his financial hardships by preventing him from getting sponsorships or twitch bounties or whatever other faggot ass stream revenue.
You cannot fix someone being irresponsible with money. You can't fix stupid. Like, even
if no detractor channels ever fucked with Phil,
if nobody ever SLAAANDERED him online,
if he got a decent share of sponsorships or twitch bounties or whatever (keeping in mind we're already nigh into fantasyland at this point), and
if he was never doxxed so that snipers had their sights trained on his front porch at all times ....Phil would STILL be in the same bankruptcy situation. He's just bad with money. He doesn't do any research (the WA move, lol), he's below-average intelligence, he refuses to take anyone's advice about anything, he refuses to adapt his 'business model', if you can call it that, until years later, if ever. He could make $50k or $100k a month and he'd still find a way to fuck it up for himself, probably in an even worse way.
Mo' money mo' problems, Phil.
He's just fucking stupid. He's a donkey that miraculously found a way to play a flute 10 years ago. Or 11 years ago, who the fuck cares. Bankruptcy and financial ruin are his logical destiny.
