A $600 car repair bill certainly is nearly identical to the cost of a
new Xbox Series X plus perhaps one new game. One of the oldest tricks in the fraud playbook for small business owners: say you’re paying for something necessary but blow it on something for yourself instead. Phil, of course, has the transparency of a lead sheet and his asshole idiot fans don’t question him so expect to hear about how a loyal, anonymous supporter gifted him a brand new $500 console out of the goodness of their heart in this time of sluggish global economic growth.
EDIT: series S, not X, though I would be simultaneously disgusted and unsurprised if he wound up with an X anyway.
