those are the eyes of a man making billions of dollars.

Is the trade off worth it? Well, we would probably do it, for a little bit at least.

Billions? I highly doubt. A billion is a fucking ludicrous amount of money.

He has ranked on the Forbes list for the highest-paid YouTube creator in 2022[25] and has an estimated net worth of $500 million.[26]

From Wikipedia

So he's numerically closer to homeless than billions.

So two years ago he was rocking ~0.5B?

he's numerically between billion and nothing, so he's technically equidistant from being a billionaire, and being completely broke.

It's also worth noting a lot of his business does revolve around spending lots and lots of money, so he probably has a pretty silly revenue stream going.

One billion, multiple billions.

2-.5 = 1.5 1-.5 = 0.5 1.5 > 0.5

"that which was to be demonstrated" 🥴

I'm just highlighting what a stupid amount of money a billion dollars is. Hopefully if more people realise you can make small armies of people dance for your sick entertainment with much less than that we can start dragging these ghouls from their homes and giving them the old Mussolini special.

listen bro, i didn't invent the "aire" term. It's not very specific. Also to be clear, the original post was a shitpost, you shouldn't think that hard about it lol.

I'd settle for millions and keep my soul.

That's not how soul sales work.

but if you keep going for two years you could get 200 million! That's worth the additional time investment!
