    Coming back go this after Jimmy has moved into a proper house makes me feel so happy for him. To go from an aspiring sim racing content creator living in a literal shed, to living in his own house, with a nice car, racing in actual series, and still simming with the best in the world including real drivers, makes me feel so proud that someone so kind, caring, respectful, and dedicated got what he deserved to have in life. So proud of you Jimmer!

      lol 😂 He’s most definitely not broke, he has over 600,000 subs. He been on top gear multiple times , and he gets countless tips on a daily, that’s not including all the free gear he receives from sponsors. Does he spend a lot of money yea I’m sure, but does that mean he’s broke? Absolutely not. If you get to do something you love everyday that alone makes you the riches person on earth. Just because some one lives in a shed does not mean he’s poor. You should really learn to start checking facts before you start judging people. An like I said anyone who has that many subs doesn’t have to pay for very much of his “Hobby” related equipment. Sponsers pay for 75% of it.

    For all the shed jokes it's easy to throw the first stone. His life isn't hurting anyone. Unless you have been born very fortunate and have had some luck in life things like this can happen to anyone. At one point I had racked up a ton of debt with school and cars and didn't want to walk away from the debt and pass the buck and wasn't going to ask my parents for help other than asking them if I could keep one car in their garage. So for 2 years I lived in a single wide trailer while working a salaried job and paid off every penny. Since that time almost 20 years ago I have gone times with plentiful money and times where things have been lean. Keep your head up jimmer. Just don't get complacent and keep pushing forward. You're doing better than a lot of people.

Even though you had to have been absolutely miserable living like this, none of that comes through in video. Always chipper, always positive, and you kept your head down and kept going forward. I'd be interested in reading a blog about how you ended up there, and then how you crawled slowly out of it. You've been nothing less than inspirational. Keep it going, Jimmy.

    This guy is going to become a part of sim racing history, I can see it now walking through the museum in 2045, and here we have the original sim frame seat that Jimmy started with, mounted in a replica back shed and an audio clip of his mum bringing him supper and knocking on the shed mid race 🙂

    Quote: '...mediocre...'
    There's nothing mediocre about being THE best sim racer and doubly nothing mediocre about also producing THE best videos on the subject. I've yet to find a single one of your presentations that wasn't absorbing, inspiring, educational, fun and, not least, so darn frustrating because I'm always forced to accept that I'll never get anywhere near your skills with the wheel and pedals, not to mention being able to describe every significant moment in detail whilst doing it.
    Many thanks for those videos and for the tour, Jimmy!

No need to keep the chin up ALL the time, but just keep plodding on, and do what you love, things work out for the best eventually.
