Hey everybody I wasn't sure if this thread is okay but I'd thought I'll make it. I used to watch him on YouTube way back in 2008 and I still have him on twitch I never watch his content but I saw the title was about his fiancial issues and how he might have to end streaming. He said he has a lot owing for federal taxes and credit cards and needs 16k by next April to keep it going. I know many people have opinions on him but for anyone this situation sucks thinking you could lose your house and not be able to see your family before they pass away.

Anyways it was just announced on his twitch stream which will be on YouTube in a bit. I'm not supporting his previous behaviour but nobody should have that feeling of not knowing if you will have your home taken away.

I don't wish ill on him and a situation like that really sucks but he's a pretty awful person so my sympathy for him is pretty small.

I remember this guy being all sorts of shady, but I can't remember for the life of me what he's done to make me feel that way.

Am I offbase in thinking someone who needs that much money to pay for their Federal Taxes might have misspent their money just a *bit*?

I'm sure if he just PRESSES BUTTONS the BUGGED financial issues will just go away automatically.

When isn't he living in fear of his home being taken away. Clearly living beyond his means. He should get a job.

As awful as it sounds, Phil got what he deserves.

This is literally what he does every few months. I can't believe you made this thread.

I don't know anything about this guy, but the things OP described sound like they're his own fault. Pay your taxes, don't buy things you can't afford, etc.

This is not the first time I can recall seeing a thread about him desperately needing money. Get a real job, manage your life better, and make sure the cameras are off when you're jerking it.

I did watch his Witcher 2 plays.

Truth is he's had his time, if not many are watching then it's time to look for other work. There's so many newer people getting the views needed I don't see the point of kicking the can down the road.

Seems like the financial issues are his own doing, so why should we care? We all need to work for a living, so if his Youtube channel doesn't bring in enough money he should consider a career change.

I don't know who this is but it seems maybe this is his own doing? If you owe money to taxes or lenders then you need to plan better.

Or yeah, get a job.

Lol he'll be fine

Phil is a liar, racist and a fucking idiot.

Dude gets BMW while telling people he doesn't have money.

Gets a 4K tv and an X

Moves to Washington state for no taxes but for some stupid reason keeps his fucking condo in Connecticut.

Commits tax evasion and then blames it on his taxes guy.

Don't feel pity for him folks

He literally had this same issue last year and did a save the channel and house stream. He can't keep milking people for cash forever.

Isn't 16k by April totally doable? I thought he made quite a bit of money off of Patreon + Twitch

Would uber or lift cover that? Work for both while doing those IRL streaming things and stuff, maybe get twitch famous.

He's a shitty person. It's not ill-wishing to just say that he should PROBABLY get a job that lets him afford the lifestyle he wants. If he can't, then that's the consequence he deals with.

If he truly owes a ton in taxes, he's making enoughf or them to WANT a ton from him. 0 pity.

Yeah. At this point he's either one of the most irresponsible people on the planet when it comes to money or he's making it all up to get people to donate.

Didn't he move out of his condo on the east coast, that he still had a mortgage with. He moved to Washington I believe into a House. I know he's said he's been paying two mortgages. Seriously the dude has been terrible with money.

Dude lives on commiseration. Keeps buying expensive shit and then throwing pity parties for himself to leech off his audience, probably comprised of mostly kids. He's also a fucking bigot and overall terrible person.

Again, fuck him.
