Of course, he's given Doopie at least that much this month.
 
He should ask Doopie for a refund for the seaweed hair, swamp monster caricature that is his icon.

Either way, after people knowing he supports Doopie on patreon and just paid for a commission (which, coincidentally, equals roughly $50) I have a good feeling people will let him rot on this ebeg.

His white knights like to validate his begging for some reason. When he was selling stamps, there was a point where he had spent more than he earned on toys and subsequently begged. They bailed him out by buying up over $40 of stamps the same day.
 
Just how much does he get per month with his tugboat and patreon?
I wonder what he needs the money for, or what he is pretending to need.

I think he got at least $248 for June from Patreon. It might be more, depending on if he has it set up to charge people immediately.

His tugboat was mentioned as $1300 a few years back.

Actually, when you think about it patreon is going to have him do his taxes since he will definitely make over $600 a year. I wonder if he will follow through or even know how to do taxes. Does anyone know if he files them? As far as I know even on the tugboat you still have to file taxes whether or not you owe money. (which you shouldn't if you live that tugboat life)

Patreon tax info: https://www.patreon.com/taxes
 
Bawww, I thought the patreonbux would keep him from e-begging for a couple of months before crashing and burning. Silly me.

I think it included survivor benefits for five years then when Bob died. So chances are today, they no longer get survivor benefits so less tugboat money.
 
Unpopular opinion, but I blame Bob for a lot of this. If Bob would have made Chris get a job (which he could handle) working at a burger joint like 15 years ago, he could have stayed there and be making like $10-11 an hour. That would help supplement Chris' expenses and they wouldn't cut his tugboat. Chris needs to get a job to help out the family, this e-begging is not a good long-term solution.
 
Maybe he could restart his Amiibo making business...oh wait that's too much work and effort than he's willing to put in.

Chris worked at Wendy's but got fired, any suggestions that he get a job is pointless since he has proven to be unemployable.

No internet sleuths going to track what he blew his tugboat on this time?

Based on his social media:

$25 to Doopie's Patreon, assuming he's been pledging the same amount. He started pledging in June, so one payment went through already.

$25 to Doopie for the profile pic commission.

$40 on a set of Crash Bandicoot games.

He's subscribed to TokyoTreat, a Japanese snack service (the sour candy in his video). I don't know how much he's paying them, but the company charges $15 (small) to $35 (large).

Also, Chris's Pokemon club is holding a tournament on July 30th, which charges a $30 entry fee. He's marked as interested in the event.

The only sad part of that is, while 15 years ago it would have been marginally more possible for him to get employed, now it will be extremely hard for him. Having such a negative presence online would make possible employers very afraid to hire him. Not to mention his non existent experience. So, Bob should have forced him to work such as an ultimatum of get a job or get out. But in the long run even if he did have a job once all the negative shit about him would make it very difficult to find employment.

This doesn't excuse him from trying though. Just, I'd say any felon would have an easier time than Chris getting a job at this point. Though, not sure if temp agencies would turn Chris down. So, who knows?

I will say one thing, with his associates he could have easily found a job as a CAD monkey back in the day (especially since engineering is pretty big here in VA) and made more than minimum wage. Heck he could have gotten a decent career going on there. But Chris was too focused on that China and Legos to care.
