Tim is probably a lot less financially stable than it would seem, because he's making a ton off of super chats and more, he's also burning money incredibly quickly dropping tens of thousands of dollars on random shopping sprees for novelty meteor swords, fossils, e-bikes, etc. That shit will add up really quickly even though no individual purchase will feel that large in itself.
I will also point out, that while we don't really know how big Tim's staff is, we can probably guess it has been reduced and most likely due to cost. I think in the last IRL he mentions having 30 employees where if I remember correctly he claimed to have more. Additionally at one point he had his Sister as a property manager of one location, Britni (Andreas's girlfriend I think) as a property manager of another location, and then Sarah doing something. Eventually Britni and Andreas were kicked out and Tim's sister left for unknown reasons, non of them were replaced and instead Sarah took over their roles. At some point during all of this Ian's ex girlfriend who is batshit crazy was also a property manager.
I doubt Tim is hurting for money right now, but I don't think he has that amazing of a nest egg either and if things go south he probably won't be able to sustain what he owns currently and will probably have to downsize significantl
I don't know about, "Hurting". But, the whole, "Get-up" has the feeling of a house of cards about to collapse, unless there is some other money being pumped in to keep someone afloat. If it is really all due to viewers, it does amaze me to a point how many people can be strung along to just listening to a guy read news articles that can be read elsewhere, or talk over guests on his talk show.
For me, this is an interesting house of cards. Like most house of cards, they can last, to a certain point.
Property in WV is reasonable, so I am not looking much at his property costs. If he were down closer to DC, where like in Bethesda, houses easily go for $1 million, smaller than his, than, that'd be something else. But, he's not, so.....
This is going to be an interesting observation as time goes on. Something it does remind me of, I was taught years ago, was, "Those who got $ don't need to flaunt it".
Ramble on a bit. Shit, show my age a bit. I recall, back in my day, with these superchat tips and shit, i wonder why these folks don't just go out to a titty bar or something. Really, superchat $20 or so to get some dude, most often a male, to read out your shit... C'mon. You could take that $20, and get some titties motor-boated in your face.
Just really amazes me how some things went from, "Support the channel", "Support the forum", to, "Tip me so I read your shit". Like I said, may show my age, but tipping like that, back in my day that was done at a place where you could see some female parts, not some guy reading off your comment.
