I've seen people doing that on Twitch, donating like $1000 all at once. I just figured they're rich, I never thought it might be an addiction problem...
Even if they are rich it’s an addiction
It's a simp. 99% of time, that donation is to a female. Hoping he will have a "chance" will her. However, she despises him and has no respect for him.
@@untouchable360xthe most popular and richest streamers on twitch are all male. So, you’re wrong.
@@untouchable360x That's exactly the part he didn't mention. They must have loved this Santa.
@@zenlife321an addiction is when it’s affecting u negatively and u keep doing it, like if u we’re broke and still spent ur only money gambling. If ur rich how tf can u be addicted to gambling?😂
Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Instead of trying to predict and prognosticate the stability of the market and precisely when the change is going to happen, a better strategy is simply having a portfolio that’s well prepared for any eventually, that’s how some folks' been averaging 150K every 7week these past 4months according to Bloomberg.
The professionals presently control the market since they not only have the essential business strategy but also have access to inside information that the general public is not aware of.
The issue is most people have the “I will do it myself mentality” but not skilled enough. Ideally, advisors are perfect reps for investing jobs and at first-hand experience, my portfolio has yielded over 350%, since covid-outbreak to date, summing up nearly $1m.
How do I meet this advisor, please? I need assistance investing my divorce settlement because it's now sitting in the bank earning little interest.
"Rebecca Nassar Dunne" is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
Thanks for sharing. I curiously searched for her full name and her website popped up after scrolling a bit. I looked through her credentials and did my due diligence before contacting her. Once again many thanks
He is substituting "video games" for the words "only fans".
He didn't say video games. That was the person writing the video title not paying attention to the video. He said streams. It doesn't need to be OF. People spend that much on Twitch. It's crazy, but they do.
@@thomasdalton1508 He did say video games. The entire context was around video games. Watch it again
@@ClaxtonBay123He said both its probably video game streams. I kind of believe him but I feel like they’re is some porn or gambling going on too.
Twitch now streams not just video games but other stuff. Including women sleeping at night.
@@ClaxtonBay123 He started talking about how he used to play video games, but then got into watching streams. The $50k was spent on gift subs on streams. They may be streaming video games, but that's irrelevant. The video games really have nothing to do with it.
Stories like this are truly a sign of our times. To be so pathetically desperate for attention that you spent 50k on a STREAMER that you don't even know is INSANE, especially when you're married with kids. Shows how aimless and depressed people are.
Very common now. Loot boxes especially in mobile games are destroying lives.
Depressing
Don’t think he’s désespérante for attention, there could be so thing going on. Social media has become the tool to fill many voids wether childhood trauma, grief, loneliness’ insecurities.
They blame it on their “trauma” sometimes not even real too 😂😂
It's more than just the streamer. It's also all their viewers. Basically the digital version of walking into a bar and saying, "Next round is on me!"
This boi spent 50k to have kids shout him out 😂
Naaaaaaaaaa 😂😂
Yep. He likes the fact that people in the comment section, who he mistakes as his "group of friends" thought he was a high roller...when in reality they were a bunch of middle school kids.
And you spent money on that ugly dog? Not any better
@@DF-199X I expect it is the reaction of the streamer(s) he has a parasocial relationship with rather than the reaction of random people in chat that he cares about.
@@thomasdalton1508 I wish John had probed a bit more at whether he was trying to court one of the streamers. Did this 50K go to like 100 different streamers or did just fund 1 or 2 streamers for 50K? Basically, is his addiction with the streamer or the audience? But I agree with John----something very big is missing here. If you're just some weird guy who is "bad with money" you would have blown it on Amazon or even giving everyone drinks at the local bar by now. You don't get to mid-life and then suddenly decide to random click away 50K without at least HOPING to get something back in return.
I used to work in credit card. We’d see these charges all the time. It’s an addiction. The freemiums are dangerous.
The Business calls them Whales
I think the caller’s situation is a little different. You’re talking about people who buy/download games that are either free, or have one time purchases. The problem with those games is that usually you can only get so far, before you need to put more money up in order to progress any further. That’s where they get people. This caller is literally donating money to gamers who play online, and live stream their games to their audience.
@@blongshanks77 we got those too. It’s all an addiction
@@blongshanks77 I worked in debt settlement. I've seen mass amounts of debt on Twitch. You can tell because it say says, "Twitch". LOL.
those are whales, not simps
Dude blowing 50K on literally anything else would be better than this. 50K color pencil collection atleast you are set up for life for when you want to color
😂
lmao
🎉
😆 🤣 😂 WOOOOOOOOW
Or you can just sell it and get at least some part of the 50k
Video games = OF
😂😂💯
My thoughts exactly
Yess!
OF?
@@Jman_22g only.................fans
This is a very believable story. There are plenty of ways to overspend online in ways Ramsey hasn't kept up with; online subscriptions and payments like OF (could've been the case with this guy and he's not honest on the air), mobile games and games with microtransactions, Twitch and donations to content creators, Pateron, RUclips, etc.
The term "whale" describes people like this, mostly in mobile or freemium games.
Mobile "games" aren't real games and "Free" to play is the worst, most anti-consumer pay model that exists. This story being phrased as "50k on video games" is also just pure clickbait. He spent 50k getting the attention of a female streamer is what happened.
My 4 year old spent $800 on a Game called "hatch dragons"...... we ended up getting it back
50k in two years / 2k a month, very doable in my opinion
Either O F or chaturbate is where his addiction really is. Guys on those sites spend thousands on those girls just to be noticed for a few minutes
Mobile games can do that too. But since he didn’t say that I’m def think it was OF or Cams.
Sounds like an Only Fans addiction.
Chaturbate more like. I always wondered who those guys were that threw so many token around, I guess we see it now.
Says someone who watches prn.. you're not better. Men are so vile..
Why do men criticize other men for their prn use when yall both consuming the same gross material??? Its all wrong addiction or no addiction. You realize this is a Christian channel right???
@roguej2 and.. you know of something like that how?? You're just like him 😂 nasty
@@ewidontlikeyoudon’t have to use a phone to know people donate to only fans and that’s why those people are rich
2:00 John digging for juice and getting nothing 😂
As usual 😂
My ex gambled away $1,200 in one night. I can definitely see how this guy lost $50,000 in a year. John nailed it when he said this guy values the approval of strangers over his own wife and kids. That amount of debt and ZERO to show for it. 🤯
@@sheryl7837 1200, those are rookie numbers.
Could it be an addiction
You can also flip it. There is a chance that he is not getting the approval or show of affection at home. That he turned to strangers to feel appreciated.
@@billyracks he said he racked up $50,000 over a year. Do the math, $1,200 a day is $438,000, not far off.
@@dogcrazy25what do u mean could it?😂bruh u just watched an entire video where they talked about how it’s an addiction. Did u just comment without watching?
This is absolutely legit. People get addicted to seeing people happy. It is a different form of addiction. Dr John just hasn’t seen this yet.
there are different types of addiction - this guy has a void in his life that was filled with the gamer shout outs. but there is a fundamental problem in his life. i wish him inner peace.
Gamer shoutouts and viewer adulation. The social media component can't be overlooked here.
i think he has a porn addiction, ain't no way he gave 50k to dudes playing video games.
Spending money just to get recognized by a streaming audience that will only last a few seconds. Pretty sad.
It is, and you're right. But remember that platforms like Twitch are built from the ground up to encourage that kind of behavior. A lot of the tactics are similar to gambling tactics. Bright shiny lights, noises, instant feedback and gratification. I'm not justifying what he did, but it is easy to get lost in the "generosity".
@rhaythe he gave money away and people celebrated it. Nothing to do with twitch, it could've happened the same way with cash on the street.
He clearly has major issues with needing self validation.
@@jacobawojtowicz Logistically, you are correct. But again, Twitch is designed to encourage you to part with your cash, and streamers encourage it to make money. Some people are more susceptible to attention tactics than others.
Unless you live in San Fran, everyone isn't begging for your cash on the street.
@@travisbickle1455 I doubt very much it was the recognition of the streaming audience he cared about. It was the attention of the streamer.
The most alarming thing about this video is how the hosts haven’t kept up with the times in regards to new ways you can waste money.
John is shocked and had never seen this but this was me and I know dozens of others. It's very addicting.
Getting 50k in debt for some acknowledgment in a game chat is wild! wtf! I was aware of loot boxes in games that can get you caught up but gifting in a chat addiction in a new one to me
If the guy was doing microtransactions on games giving you a new player skin or a weapons upgrade I get it. At least paid upgrades are yours to keep. But spending money to a streamer just to show off to his/her viewers is stupid. It only lasts a few seconds and you have nothing to show for it in the end.
Maybe he's in an unhappy marriage and is desperate for another source of attention or something.
Most of the $50K went to the OnlyFans accounts of female Twitch streamers like Amouranth.
@@megalodon1726 I was figuring the same thing.
You would know, creep.@@megalodon1726
Did I hear him say "something to do, especially at work"? Good thing to know that defense budget is being spent well.
It’s incredibly easy to fall into this if you’re not disciplined. Chat and the streamer does go crazy and it makes you feel so excited! The entire chat praises you, it’s such a dopamine hit
Speak for yourself. Most people have zero desire for that type of hit. Disciplined or not. If you do, you have major other issues in your life.
@@Ryan_DeWitt "most people" who? do you know every single person on this planet? i would never do any of this but you can't just think "most people" wont do it when there is still people that will do it. people online is really different to how they can be IRL
@@Rataldo20 The majority of people do not use Twitch at all.
@@Rataldo20 he is not talking about a population he is talking about a sample. Statistics is based on sample not population
The thumbnail is just wrong. You can spend $50,000 on video games, that's usually a case where the game has pay to win mechanics or lots of microtransactions.
Gifting subscriptions on twitch is more akin to being like: "I spent $50,000 on rounds of drinks at a sports bar."; you wouldn't call that spending $50,000 on sports.
Indeed. It's odd for a social media manager to be so out of touch with what Twitch is...
@@thomasdalton1508 Just take a look at the comments here, people think it must be OF when in reality he probably really was giving subscriptions to random people on twitch.
@@Sizukun1 Well, it isn't really to random people. It is to the streamer(s) he has a parasocial relationship with. The recipients of the subs are irrelevant.
@@Sizukun1I bet you that 100% of the streamers were female and probably at least 50% had OF.
@@untouchable360xthese are questions John should have asked!!!
Imagine spending 50k to strangers so they acknowledge you 😅
Ppl do that every day with the things we buy
Exactly
And then telling the Ramsey show…no shame
Exactly. People spend more on houses, cars, clothing, all for clout from strangers. @@reese85
it's not as hard to imagine as you think. Look at all the people out there who spend that kind of money on cars they can't afford. Or people who buy luxury brand clothing/accessories. You think they're just buying it for the quality? No it's to get attention from strangers.
Addiction to OF 😂😂😂
yea I used to watch twitch and there are lots of simps who donate to those OF streamers. I hope that wasn't his case because it would look a lot worse for him
I don't know why that's funny it's a serious issue.
@@Jman_22g I agree it’s a serious issue. He could have taken one of his eye’s out! 😱
@@Jman_22g both things can be true. It can be hilarious and a serious issue
What is OF?
I hope Alex gets the help he needs and deserves!
Deserves ? 😂 he gave 50k away , he literally took food out of his kids mouth this man doesn’t even deserve his own family
@@TruthHurts922 when it comes to mental health, I believe almost everyone deserves mental health help.
The top income streamers on twitch are actually men. They get rich because of “whales” (Big Spenders in the gaming world) like this caller. People also get addicted trying to outspend other whales. This type of addiction doesn’t get much attention because of the same reaction you see in this video that it is hard to believe that people actually waste money like this. That is why it is so hard to get help.
I believe this guy. I watch Twitch (a lot less than I used to) and when someone drops 100 subs, the streamer goes wild, the chat goes wild etc.. It can be exciting but you won't find me doing this. I watch this one streamer, she has someone in her chat that has gifted (over time) 1941 subs to other viewers. That's $9500+ and that is just to one streamer.. who knows how many subs they've gifted in other channels.
Kimmie?
He was watching other people alright.
He was probably known as the “rich dude” in the chat. A lot of twitch streamers have one. Usually some software engineer or someone that has a ton of time and money to watch twitch all day and drop donations like its nothing because they’re rich. Obviously this man is not rich but wanted to keep up the persona and its led to him ruining his life. Ive seen it happen before with my own father however it wasn’t with twitch.
Exactly what I was going to post. Some of my favorite twitch channels are smaller, averaging 100-300 people a day and you get some people thinking it's their duty to keep the channel alive for their "friends" the streamer and chat.
If you spend $192/stream on a streamer who streams 5 days a week for a year, that is $50k. They might find this hard to believe but the parasocial relationships with streamers and communities is crazy and gives a similar escape that booze or an affair might.
Yeah I think the hosts and many of the commenters don't really understand the format. I've watched streams where people will send $500 and the streamer will acknowledge them by name and then read whatever message the person paying sent. That can easily add up. Even on tiktok, if you go to very popular tiktok lives, people will be constantly sending gifts, some of which can be worth up to around $500. It is very believable that someone who frequently engages in this activity could unwittingly spend thousands upon thousands of dollars.
I agree. Idk why they have a hard time believing this. 1k/week is easy to blow through, really. I used to work at bars and clubs and a lot of the men who would come in there were similarly addicted and destroying their finances. They were willing to go through a few hundred bucks in an afternoon so they could have a bouncer dap them up and a bartender greet them by name. The feeling of having a community is something we all yearn for, we just need to figure out how to channel it appropriately.
@@brookiegremlin6660 exactly. I mean to them and to many commenters, this kind of behavior is unfathomable and it just doesnt make any sense. But people literally throw their money down the drain while getting what normal people see as absolutely nothing in return
Totally agree 💯
He spent it all on tyler1
bro fr spent money on getting a random teenagers approval 😬
I certainly believe this story, I’ve seen so many people gifting subs on RUclips and Twitch that I always ask myself how can they afford to do this? It’s that dopamine hit for them.
I definitely believe it. I’ve even done gifties for a streamer occasionally but I think the most I ever did was 10 at a time during a subathon. It was fun. Usually, I have done a few here and there. Not very regularly. But, man, I can’t imagine maxing out credit cards to keep that rush coming. 😮
Imagine the woman enjoying his 50k lol
I guarantee whatever woman streamer he donated to is just throwing his 50k into her own investments. Using more brains than this fool 😂😂😂
probably asa akira
All too common. I still remember when Amouranth's twitch mod revealed he donated over $13k to her alone.
The Simpness is strong in him.
o.O I thought the mods were paid ....
@@vanesslifeygo nah the loser mods have to pay so they can work for free. They are the textbook definition of complete losers
I believe this guy. I was donating to twitch streamers at one point. I love and still watch video gameplay. For me, There was thrill of other watchers seeing your donation and flipping out. I did this for support but never fell in a spiral like that. 50k?? cmon man thats just insane.
I want the best for this guy, and I am also absolutely bamboozled by this odd addiction.
I don’t think I can ever understand this guys process of thinking and thank fucking god
I work in video games and have seen first hand people spend this type of money. It’s crazy but more common than you think.
He really wasted 50k on a power trip
Never played Haze back in the day, but the box art went so hard.
Dude a haze icon what a throw back lol. I bought that on day one and it was so fricken broken lol
Glad you guys recognized Haze!!! Always thought the box art and the tv ad were pretty cool back in 2008!
The $50K went to OnlyFans.
@@WindyWalk Fax I played it like once, The art is one of the best for sure!
I can definitely see this being an addiction for a lot of people. Being acknowledged in front of thousands of people can definitely turn into an addiction for some people even if it means donating money for it.
It’s sad a hell
Amouranth got paid from this cat!
you know he took a trip over to her OF page....$50k, there aint no way it was little Johnny playing fortnite. Granted, if it was an only fans transaction, it will show.
Twitch booba
100%
This video is so bad Asmongold did a commentary on it.
@@Ryan_DeWitt I just watched it lmao !
As someone that goes through heavy gaming bouts, i never understand the people that give streamers money. It makes no sense, why the hell would i give any of these talentless people any money.
Because for those few minutes the streamer and chat recognize the donator... they feel like they actually matter. Most of these people are very lonely inviduals who use this as a tool to get some, well... value of their sad life. The higher donation or amount of gifted subs.. the more hype they get. A few minutes later is all gone and they just keep doing it for the dopamin hit.
@@RippanCSGO That is extremely sad
@@RippanCSGO Very true. The adulation they get from chat, seeing their username repeated as a solid block of text as the chat bot lists their subscriptions, the hype from the streamer, it's all a very convincing counterfeit for human connection...until the high wears off and you realize the loneliness never went away. It reminds me of alcoholics I knew who would buy friends by paying for the next round in a bar, only it's more distant.
Man, people get so enveloped in fantasy, playing the big shot by dropping $500/$1000 donations, because real life is so mundane…
Ironically you can send Super Thanks for Ramsey for this video.
He's getting online public recognition from strangers by making a sizeable gift. I can see the appeal if you have no other way to feel good about yourself 😢
I BELIEVE HIM! People do a lot of things online that they wouldn’t do in real life💯
Very bad look for John to insist he doesn't believe him. People spend money on all kinds of stupid things, the guy is owning up to it, and he is trying to fix it.
I watch twitch sometimes and I see dummies dropping $500 every week on their favorite streamers and more. It definitely is happening, and it's not just people who can afford it.
Yup I've seen people drop thousands on small time streamers.. whales and addicts
That's because they aren't in touch with the culture. "I've been in this business a long time, you're lying!" Just because he hasn't seen it doesn't mean in does not exist.
I agree, and I was disappointed in how John acted like it was impossible for the guy’s story to be true. I’ve never watched people on Twitch, but as a gamer myself, I’ve watched people play online through RUclips, and it is quite enjoyable. Especially if it’s a game you love playing yourself.
Actually, it's a very bad look for the caller. John is basically saying, "I've seen countless drug addicts, gambling addicts, porn addicts, and alcoholics". However this sounds so pathetic I can't even believe it is real.
Does this man know the existence of whales in gacha games?
This is why BOTH people in a marriage should know where every dime is located. BOTH people should know exactly what income is coming into the household and exactly what is being spent and where. It is a dereliction of responsibility to not know. I like Jade's take and I have a feeling that Jade would know if $5 was missing. That's awesome!
I have had friends and relatives who had no idea what their spouses were doing with their finances. Scary.
Divorce on the way 😢
Becoming more common than people think. It isnt spoken about, but loot boxes, twitch, on and on and on are destroying lives.
Good. Great way to remove money from idiots. Efficient flow of capital.
@@JJones-zg7yz What? Lol.
@people3865 are you dense? If someone is that dumb, their money will natural flow to someone more innovative and resourceful.
@@JJones-zg7yz I supposed gambling addiction is good then?
@people3865 it's not good or bad. Can you grasp that most commerce is amoral? Bad for the addict, good for the house. Again, efficient flow of capital. Should we make all gambling illegal?
Dude was down bad on OF and John tried to call him out in the nicest way possible.😂
I was one of those people, sadly, so I one hundred percent understand what this gentleman is going through. I am so thankful that I was able to pay it all off and not have it ruin my credit, but it becomes an addiction, and it is tough to stop.
as someone who watches streams his story is believable
viewers are part of a community and when you donate a lot of subs the members of your community give you a very hyped up praise
i’m guessing there’s a void/depression that he’s filling by getting the adrenaline of praise from people in his community.. he’s looked up to by his peers and he probably feels revered
We all know which twitch streamers he means
John nailed it.
This is insane, as a gamer who is addicted, I would never throw cash at anyone. I guess I am a cheap gamer, I don't even pay for subscriptions although I have in the past . Hard to relate to but glad the Ramsey team called, he HAD to know what he was doing, using multiple credit cards, wild.
They didn’t call him, he called them lol
@@Shaheeny468 Typically the way it work is the callers write in or email or call and they get put on the list and then they get called back if they get selected to be on, I am sure they must get a ton of calls they they just can't get back or don't meet the criteria, but yeah this is something for sure.
“Comparison is the thief of joy” does not apply when I listen/watch these videos. Shelling out $500+ to a Twitch streamer is insane. Hope this guy gets it figured out.
I literally used to love watching Twitch, but would freak out when I bought one subscription to one streamer 😂
To spend money but spend it on such a dumb thing...wow
I had a similar experience I was in to free to play games for a bit thankfully I only spent around 1k before realizing this was becoming a problem and I stopped.
I had a dream last night that I met some people from The Ramsey Show. Ken was the one I talked most to, he was such a nice guy. John was being super social with people lol.
I don't see what's so unbelievable
$100/donation with 1-2 donations per day for a year gets you to $50k
I see all the comments saying "it's not video games, it's Only Fans!" And while that's definitely possible, video game addiction (or at least dependency) is very real. And really, it doesn't matter whether it's video games or OF. Either way, it's a compulsive behavior and the consequences and potential treatments are very similar.
Could be both. There’s women who stream while barely wearing anything.
@@nickm4662 I mean let's be honest, at that point its basically OF...
People pleasing and performing to receive their praise is an addiction. There is a high from that. It’s believable to me. 🤷🏽♀️ Very sad. 😢
this hurts
I see this and wonder how they afford it. I watch a twitch streamer where a watcher drops 50 Tier 1 subs multiple times each stream. I googled it and that’s about $500 a pop. I agree with another poster. I think they get a high off the drop and the acknowledgment.
This dude gifts and donates subs because he loves the attention he gets from the streamer when he does it, and now he's called into the show and is getting more attention than he could have possibly hoped for with $50K worth of gifted subs. Y'all are doing this dude a disservice by putting him on the air, he's getting off on this.
lol
There's also the attention he gets from the people he gave subs to. Can't forget that. It's similar to going into a bar and paying for the next round - everybody loves you, for about 10 minutes.
I know we're supposed to be kind to other people and all, but this may be the dumbest thing I've ever heard someone (who wasn't extremely wealthy) spend this amount of money on. At least if you're gambling you have a chance of getting something back. He literally just threw money into a void. When I think of everything I could spend $50,000 on and how many years it would take me to save up that much money... I just can't even wrap my head around it.
I have no idea why this guy doesnt believe the caller. This is very believable. He might not be used to a guy being up front and honest about it. But this is very, very real. In the up coming years youll see in game purchases for video games get out of control too.
I knew someone with an addiction to mobile game purchases. They spent thousands before she stopped.
I think this call was handled terribly… I feel like they didn’t take him seriously at all. Rather than probing deeper they just kept acting like it couldn’t be true 🤷🏻♂️
John, I really respect you digging into the question just in case it was something else. But I 100% believe him into the streaming of it. Especially if it was to a streamer they really like (sexual or not.)
In streaming, there is a sense of togetherness that probably reminded him of his military brothers and sisters. I believe him. With them well!
Nobody can't help you when you have this kind of problem addiction but yourself whit the support of others..!
A lot of people judging this brother in the comments, but it just reflects how any of us can fall into a pit if were not careful. Pray for him, offer words of advice or encouragement. But ppl rather point and make jokes
How do you get approved for 50k in credit cards
Hey at least he admit there's a problem 😮
I'm surprised John doesn't understand how parasocial relationships work and how dangerous they can be. He's supposed to be a psychologist...
John is basic.
Dr Phoney only knows how to ask if people are safe, that's beyond him
I did the same thing on Twitch, but spent well over double that.
You'd think after all the cards were maxed it would end. It didnt end though.
I'm with Dr. John here. Something is not right.
It is pretty litt to get subs gifted! I can only imagine the high he was getting from giving away money it's a wierd addiction butt I believe him
I’m a social media manager/ video editor for twitch streamers. This is 100% a reality for so many people that lack attention in real life so they go to the digital space and find streamers (girl streamers 9/10) and donate insane amounts of money to them because they get viewed as the big dog and they get the attention they lack in the real world. Could this guys $50k been on OF girls? Absolutely! But people do spending $50k on twitch streamers. It’s a crazy reality.
3:44 goes from mentioning covid to mortgage rates. Mortgages were at their lowest during/after covid.
and here I am feeling guilty about not using netflix every day when I'm paying for it, I feel less guilty now 😅
While watching this video I received an email saying I received a gifted sub on twitch... 100% dead serious.
Ramsey Solutions getting new business model ideas
Apparently, he was the Gigachad in every chat!…
I hope PFC.Simp gets help from the VA regarding his addiction 😢although they have denied care for far less
My daughter streams on twitch. She plays Paper Mario and Mario Cart. She says this happens all the time. People gifting hundreds of dollars for subs. It happens frequently.
And they say social media is killing “this generation” as if it doesn’t affect anyone older than 18
i dont think they even helped him other than just being so flabbergasted at his situation.....
How are they supposed to help him? If he drops 50K just for attention from a stranger while he has a wife and kids, nothing can help him.
@@chandlerh2408 Deloney is a Psych. This is an addiction/mental disorder. What you mean Howre they supposed to help?
He has to start by being honest with himself. There is no way that even the biggest gamer is spending $50k on a gamer. This has to be like onlyfans or some kind of private chat or something. Nobody is doing that because they are watching someone play a video game. People that play games spend that on actually playing the games not watching.
Watching Twitch isn't gaming. Being a big gamer has nothing at all to do with it.
There are certainly people that gift 100 subs every stream. You do that twice a week for a year, that's $50,000. I watch streams sometimes and see it all the time. I often wonder why someone rich enough to do that wants to do it. It hadn't occurred to me that they might be going $50,000 in debt to do it...
Good point @@thomasdalton1508
Streamers encourage this behavior. One I follow used to have a leader board showing his biggest supporters and had multiple people over $20,000 in lifetime donations.
@@dt7353 That's impressive for a male streamer. I would have expected that kind of obsessive gifting to be mostly to female streamers.
There are lots of streamers who have multiple people donating hundreds of dollars per stream. I could see how some of those regular donators could be donating irresponsibly like this. And I'm talking about YT and Twitch streams
Dang, I am in the wrong business. I need to be a streamer!
Jon’s obviously not a gamer 😂

Only Jesus Christ can free people from bondage
Every generation says that about the younger generation. Give me a break.
@@ClaxtonBay123 every generation get closer to the second coming.
Praying isn't going to do anything.
For anyone as baffled as Ramsey, this is basically the same thing as people wasting tons of money on erotic hotlines back in the day.
It's hard to emphasize the level of addiction that this can be. It's a certain kind of approval because your donation appears on screen. Imagine if you could donate a certain amount of money and your favorite singer or songwriter will shout you out at a concert
“To cope”, yeah, right. Excuses
Thank you for calling him out on the bs
Nah, it’s not BS. There are many people like this caller. Just watch any popular streams on twitch and you will see many people gifting subscriptions to the viewers and money donations to the streamer.
@@0mnilegacy 50K in a year... I think it's different types of streamers.
@@MFTW Lots of OF models stream on Twitch fr! Idk if I believe he would donate 50K to male gamers, but I can imagine simping to an OF streamer.
I've spent like 2,000 on a game. 50,000 is crazy!
Sexless/0 intimacy relationship=of addiction.
Just leave her you'll be happier.
