why im quitting youtube BYE

Hello,

am I back?

Uh, the stream ended because I couldn't—

it's weird because when you Close

Streamlabs. I can't continue doing

the stream. I have to make a new event

because it can't find the previous

So I don't know if the lag is going to get

fixed now. I turned the bitrate down,

reset Streamlabs, turned off my VPN.

I don't really know what the problem was.

Maybe Streamlabs had a problem.

Kind of annoying because now we're gonna

have 2 split streams.

Oh well,

that's why you have an IRL server, so that

when you disconnect the stream doesn't

end. But I don't want to pay $100 a month

to just have a server.

Imagine paying $100 a month. That's like a

quarter of what I make.

Doesn't a split stream mean more views and

more money? Hmm, maybe.

Because it would be like 2K views on

2 streams instead of 2K views on one

stream. Oh,

is it lagging?

Giving me a warning.

Says warning, the stream's current bitrate

999 is lower than the recommended bitrate.

Yeah, the main channel this month made

$400. I'm not

joking, that's how bad things are.

The channel is making what I was making

before I got married. Now,

how do you survive? Well, luckily I moved

to a cheap country where $500 is actually

considered to be a lot.

$500 in US— I mean, in Thai baht,

it's like 17,000 baht.

My rent is only 11,000 baht.

Sorry, $500 is still nearly double of

what my rent costs. I mean, if I was

living in Rotterdam, no way I could afford

it, or Manchester.

But it's kind of scary because how am I

supposed to raise a family with a dead

YouTube channel?

I'm basically stuck in a dead-end job.

This is basically a dead-end job with

no potential of growing.

I mean, yeah, the end goal would be to

build a family, wouldn't it?

Otherwise my girlfriend's gonna leave me.

It's kind of scary that I don't know how

else to make any money.

The only content I have now is whining,

now like whining about my channel dying,

whining about My future.

Well, if I get dumped because I'm broke,

then I guess that's content, isn't it? I

might get 10K views.

Get a job? I can't. I don't even speak

Thai apart from Hello, my name is Daniel.

I am 34 years old. I don't have any money.

I don't understand what people are saying

outside of class. They're like, and I'm

like, what? I've been learning Thai for 20

days. What the f did you just say?

I go to the shop and I still don't

understand what they're saying to me.

They're like, and And I say, what?

What? Do you speak English?

Thailand has so much you can show, and I

showed it and it doesn't get any views.

I went to all the places in Thailand.

Pattaya, Phuket. Made a

vlog a couple days ago, 2,800 views.

Rubbish,

rubbish, and lacking in luster.

I did food market, Bangkok Chinatown,

done loads of videos in Thailand. The most

it ever got was 21K views, I think, for

the, the Pattaya video got 21K views, but

only because I clickbaited the title with

my future wife. How are you making money

if you're getting no views? Well, I'm not

getting no views, still get like quarter

of a million views a month.

Average CPM $3, it's like 3 times 250,

it's about $700 or $800 a month. If I

can just get something to blow up, I'd

sail above $1.5K,

but there's nothing to make a video about.

I don't know what to do. Maybe I should

have made a video about that submarine

that blew up.

The couple's vlogs not really getting

views.

I mean, they get the same views as

everything else, I guess.

Well, I'll just— I'll keep working at it,

keep trying to make stuff, but it is kind

of concerning.

Copying Chris Broad's titles. Doesn't

Just trying to keep my eye out on if

there's any trending topic I could chime

in my opinion.

Am I half Japanese or half Chinese? I'm

half Chinese, but my mom is Chinese

Malaysian.

Unless I just go like full troll mode like

that BJ BG Kumbi guy.

Let's just say dumb stuff like, I knew

Stockton Rush back in the day and I told

him his idea wouldn't work, but he never

listened. Like, just everything's just

complete BS. It's either that or

try and be genuine, but that's pretty

boring. It's just like, I mean, this is me

being genuine right now.

Why I agree with Andrew Tate.

I missed a lot of the trending stuff

because I couldn't be bothered.

It's okay, August will be better. July has

just been very bad.

Maybe I could react to the One Piece

movie. Anime Man did it, he got half a

million views, but I'm scared

of copyright if I show that trailer.

Is the stream lagging now?

I think it's okay now.

Yeah, I think using my phone hotspot seems

to have fixed it.

Not very reliable, is it?

Fingers crossed it'll be fine,

because if it disconnects again, I think

I'm just gonna give up. It's too

annoying having to restart all the time.

It should be easy to do a live stream from

home. Don't understand.

Well, at least the last livestream didn't

get demonetized. Hopefully.

It's only 10 AM. Feels like I've been

streaming for ages. I want

to do at least another 3 hours.

Homeless and Show is streaming.

Wow, he got 400 viewers.

What are they doing?

It's kind of weird seeing Japan again.

I wonder if they can maintain a big

viewership without Collabing

with Ice. That's what I want to see.

Andy Milonakis gets 150 viewers on Kick,

and the camera shaking gives me a

It's been a while since I've seen Japanese

girls. I guess they are pretty cute. They

look different to Thai girls. I don't know

how. They have black hair. In Thailand,

nearly every girl dyes their hair brown.

Thai girls do have bigger bums, I noticed.

Japanese women have very small bums

compared to Thai women. Thai women have

massive bums, some of them.

But Japanese girls have that kind of

sheepish, oh, I'm so scared kind of look.

They look scared. Thai girls seem to

show more confidence.

But barely anyone's wearing a face mask in

Japan. There's so many people not wearing

masks. In Thailand, still nearly

everyone's wearing face masks.

Homeless looks better now. He was looking

pretty rough last time I saw him. His hair

looks washed.

Hmm, I need like a, like a livestream

sidekick, but I refuse to socialize.

That's too tiring.

Do you think Japan's hotter than Thailand

right now?

Shota looks better with the longer hair.

He looked weird when it was short.

Boring, they're just sitting on a

staircase. What's Deepak doing?

Sleeping. Deepak's got 250

viewers just watching him sleep.

Show looks a lot better now. He was

looking kind of weird when he was in Korea

Too scared to meet Ice. Who, me?

I don't really want to.

I don't know what I'd say. I'd just be

like, oh, hi, Ice, do you remember me?

And then he'd be like, no, who are you?

Or maybe he'd remember. Oh, you're that

weird British guy in Japan. I think

he might remember me, but then I wouldn't

know what to say. I didn't

know what to say to him when I met him

last time. I didn't really talk to him,

just said, so how long are you in Japan?

Or when are you streaming? He just one

word answered my questions. He only

said, I think you and I are quite alike,

or something like that.

And then I giggled like a little girl. I

was like, hehehe. I don't know why he said

that, because he's not wrong.

I think I, I'm quite similar to him

personality-wise,

but just not with the socializing aspects.

I'm the complete opposite.

It's weird because in some ways we're very

similar, but in other ways we're

completely not. Like, um,

I think the whole selfish, narcissistic,

low EQ kind of thing we have in common.

And then the whole using drama for content

and only caring about content, something

we had in common.

Although nowadays I don't really care

about content anymore. I prioritize

peaceful life over content now.

Sometimes I think maybe I should have done

what Ice did and just sacrificed

everything for content,

which is what I was doing when I was

married. I sacrificed everything for

content. That's why the channel was so

good. But I couldn't do it anymore.

It was too stressful.

You're actually stopping? Yep. My last

ever YouTube stream. Bye forever.

I'm done. I'm broke.

I'm gay and divorced.

I have $24,000 in savings,

but it's all tied up in stocks. I've

actually got about £2,000 free that

I might invest soon. I want to get some

Chinese stocks. I think China will

stimulate the economy. Around October,

and then the Chinese market will go back

up. So I feel like now is a good buying

opportunity. I bought more Chinese stocks

last week and it's already up

a couple percent.

Which China stocks? I just got this

Chinese growth ETF,

so I don't even know what stocks are in

What's your definition of broke?

Making less than $1,000 a month.

Making triple digits. Imagine making

triple digits income.

Not even 4 digits.

That's pretty embarrassing. Invest in

Apple. No, they've gone up so much

already. I want to buy stocks when they've

been beaten down, not whilst they're going

to new highs. I feel like it's very risky

to buy a stock when it's nearly at

all-time highs.

I should have bought Facebook a couple

months ago. They've tripled since the

lows. I am interested

in crypto because I feel like next year

crypto bull run could start again because

of the halving event. So I'm looking

at Bitcoin trying to find an entry point.

I'm just thinking maybe it will drop again

one more time this year,

back down to like $20K, then I'd buy.

It's currently at $29K.

I reckon it could drop down to $24K again.

There's a support line at $24K and

then another one at $18K. I don't think it

would drop below $20K again. I don't know,

if it dropped down to like 24K, I might

buy a little bit.

It could drop down to 20K before

going up again. Hard to tell.

Yeah, I could invest like £100 every

month. Yeah, I could do that.

How much do I want to have allocated?

Maybe, maybe £2,000.

That would be about 10% of my net worth.

It's kind of a lot. Maybe just £1,000, 5%

allocation. On a speculative stock.

£1,000. Yeah, maybe £1,000 over

10 months. £100 a month. I slowly nibble

in.

Do your American classmates still talk

stock? No, they never did. They usually

talk about interest rates because one of

them owns like an insurance company. The

other one studied— he has a bachelor's and

master's in economics, so he knows his

stuff. I never had the opportunity

to talk to him about it. I talked to him

once and then I never talked to him again.

And now he's left. He's not doing level 2.

Actually, none of the Americans are

staying apart from the new one.

All of the white Americans left. They're

gonna leave next week, so it's gonna be

interesting to see what the class dynamic

is like without them.

I kind of wish the Russian people left,

not the Americans.

The other classroom's very noisy.

It's very annoying. They keep laughing and

you can hear them laugh from my classroom.

I'm not sure if we're getting merged with

another class because half of our class is

has left or is leaving.

They're not doing level 2. I think one of

the American guys doesn't like the school.

He said to me he didn't like the teacher

or something. He said she was harassing

him. I don't understand how he came to

that conclusion. I mean,

she does sound like she's yelling at him,

but that's just what she sounds like when

she's speaking loudly. I think she's

trying to speak loudly and It sounds like

she's yelling at him.

He said he feels like he's being harassed

by the teacher.

How do you come to that conclusion? It's

because you're not listening. She's

saying, say this word, and you're not

saying it.

He's pretty bad. Some of the students

are really slow and really bad. Some of

them still can't get you and I correct.

Like, they keep saying you when they

should be saying I. And I don't know how

you keep making that mistake after 20 days

of learning. You still can't get I and you

right.

That's the most basic, easiest thing.

And then he speaks with like a very thick

American accent when he's talking Thai,

which is pretty funny.

He's like, สวัสดีค่ะ. Palm Chew.

Jeremiah Crab.

Why don't Americans understand that when

you speak a foreign language, you're not

supposed to use your American accent?

The American accent only exists in

American English, not in any other

language. You gotta drop your accent.

It's like when they try to learn Japanese,

they sound like konnichiwa,

watashi wa John

Smith desu.

American English is very up and downy,

and then they— when they speak Japanese,

they try and do the same up and downy,

like watashi wa anata no karashi

desu. Oh my god, just stop,

please. You're butchering the language so

badly. Japanese is

the most monotone language ever. Do not

say watashi wa.

Konnichiwa. Oh my God.

I couldn't be a language teacher because

I'd just rage. I'd come home and then do a

stream. Oh my God, my student is so

stupid. I'm getting annoyed. My girlfriend

cannot pronounce R, and I cannot for

the life of me explain to her how to say

the R sound. Like she can't pronounce the

word arrive. She keeps saying a leave or

alive. And I look at her mouth and she's

flicking her tongue like this. Alive,

alive, like that. And I keep saying,

don't move your tongue. Your tongue

shouldn't move at all. And then every time

she moves her tongue, you say arrive.

Your tongue doesn't move. It shouldn't be

doing this. Your tongue shouldn't be

moving at all when you say arrive.

There's 2 components when you make the R

sound. Number one, the sound is created at

the back of your throat, like, er, er,

like that. It's just like that sound at

the back of your mouth. And then number 2,

to make the sound is the shape of your

lips, like Red. You're kind

of smiling when you say it. Or read.

Arrive. You make like a smile face.

Your tongue has nothing to do with it.

Your tongue shouldn't be moving at all

when you say arrive. I try and explain

this and she still, still, she still

doesn't get it. I don't

know what more I can say.

Just don't move your tongue.

Red, read— your tongue should not be

moving. If it's moving, then you're making

an L sound like lead or led.

All Asian countries seem to struggle with

this. There's no R sound in any Asian

language— Korean, Japanese.

I get very annoyed because it's not

difficult. How hard is it to just not move

Oh yeah, Chinese has like an R sound when

they do the er, ah, er, er. Er sounds like

that. That's like an ah. Er, ah,

er. The sound comes

from deep in your mouth, like the

back of your throat.

One thing that annoys me in Thai class is

to say go is bai, but to say

go home is not bai ban.

Ban means home. It's glap ban. You gotta

use glap if you're going home, but some

of the students keep saying bai ban,

or they say bai whatever

their country is to say go back to their

country when they should be saying glap.

And some of them just do not remember

this. They keep saying bye ban

instead of glap ban.

I don't know why they find it hard to

remember. Maybe I'm just a genius.

These are very basic things to remember

The hardest thing I would say is,

you know, the weirdest thing is when you

want to say something is yours, like my

home or my story.

It's reversed, so you would say ban

pom for my home. It's like home my.

Or my story is story pom.

It just sounds really weird to me.

And like red car is car red,

so the word that describes the noun comes

After the noun.

Are you even reading our comments?

Yeah. Free Palestine?

What's even wrong with Palestine? Are they

still fighting with Israel? I watched a

movie with Tom Hanks in it and I kept

thinking, damn, he looks like Benjamin

Netanyahu. Tom Hanks aged so much.

I miss young Tom Hanks, he was so

handsome.

Tom Hanks aged a lot. How old is he now?

Tom Cruise aged a lot too, but he still

looks like Tom Cruise. I had to keep

looking at Tom Hanks' face and

questioning, is that actually Tom Hanks?

Oh yeah, it is.

All the good actors getting old. They're

like 60, 70 now.

Arnold Schwarzenegger still looks pretty

good.

I'm looking forward to what new grammar

we're gonna learn next week.

I'm looking forward to,

you know, words like anything,

nothing, whatever, you know, stuff like

that. I know anything is อらいกาดาย,

which is fun to say. อらいกาดาย sounds

funny. I've been watching videos on

YouTube of white people who speak fluent

Thai, and it's so weird because it doesn't

suit their face at all. And they sound

like old men, like they make this sound in

the back of their throat like all the

Do something funny? Like what?

Guys, my wife cheated on me with my best

friend, and they made video, and they're

threatening to release it if I don't suck

his D.

Why did the Hong Kong guy cross the road?

To steal my wife and fail.

Do you think Casey and Chihiro ever still

Did I get unbanned from Airbnb? Nope.

I wonder if I could make a new one now.

It's been, what, 4 years?

The tones in Thai make it interesting.

I've never learned, never learned a

language that has tones.

I guess it's not too hard. You just have 2

things to remember. You gotta remember the

word and also remember the tone.

But sometimes it's not hard because you

just say it how Thai people say it. Like,

aroi is down tone, falling tone.

Aroi. I never heard it said aroi.

Or aroi, that'll just sound weird. So it's

aroi, down.

It's quite interesting though, doing the

tones. I don't like falling

tone. It's like It's

hard to do sometimes.

Like, house is falling tone.

I'm not sure how to do it. It's like ban.

Or is it ban? Ban.

Home.

Ban. It's like, uh, I don't

like that one. It's hard to do.

I like flat tone.

Face reveal would peak viewers. Yeah,

like 8K views and then drop back down to

4K.

I would need her to be a massive character

and personality for the channel, but she

seems too shy. I asked if she wants to do

a livestream with me and she said she

would shy, and she doesn't want people

to know her face because

it could affect her work.

Oh, I need to pee again.

I don't know why, but I thought moving to

a new country and going to a school and

learning a new language would be exciting.

I don't know why it doesn't feel exciting.

It was kind of exciting the first week,

maybe.

Is that normal? I guess it's normal not to

be excited all the time. You get used to

it. I just, I thought it'd be more

exciting.

Put the webcam in a normal spot because

this angle makes me look more handsome.

And if I put it more in front of me, then

the background's just white and it looks

kind of boring. I want to show you my

I am reading the chat, trying to find

stuff to respond to. Oh yeah, the chat is

in top chat mode. I changed it to live

chat.

Looks the same. Do people still walk into

your room? No, after we put the sign up,

no one's actually accidentally opened it.

Anything would have done the job. I mean,

just putting like a magnet on the door

would have shown that it's not their

place. I don't know how it happened 2

times though. One time I can kind of

accept, but 2 times, 2 different people

accidentally opening my door. Yeah, it's

locked now. It's kind of weird, isn't it,

that it would happen so often in such a

short amount of time?

Make stupid faces like that.

What's homeless doing? Running away from

ex-Yakuza.

Wow, he's effing big time.

And he effed. Streaming is hard, guys.

You always effing and stuff,

disconnecting.

Maybe I'll do some IRL again, go back to

the market. I need to get some, I don't

know, like antibiotic to put into the

tank. I think my fish is sick.

The little fish look fine, but the big

fish, I don't know, he's kind of flipping

out and then he just goes and hides in the

log. And doesn't come out.

Maybe he's sick because he ate the shrimp.

Well, that's karma. The problem with IRL

is you keep disconnecting and the quality

looks crap, and it annoys me. It stresses

me out. And then I'm always scared of

music, and going inside of a building

makes the stream F. It's just really

stressful. Streaming is a really stressful

activity. Making a video is easy,

just press record, don't have to worry

about internet.

Surprised you didn't try to meet up with

Ice. I did think about

it, but I didn't see the point. I already

sniped him back in 2019,

and Ice has mentioned me a few times on

stream, so his viewers do know about me,

but they don't care because my content's

boring. If I can't keep

my own audience entertained, then I've got

no chance keeping his audience

entertained. I'd say his audience even

harder to keep entertained because they

want drama and IRL all the time and

interaction with strangers.

I'm not really good content because if I

was, my channel wouldn't have died, would

it? Ice only likes people who are good

content. If they're boring, then he just—

he doesn't care about them. And back in

2019, I felt like I was good content and

my channel had good content, but nowadays

it's pretty clear I

don't.

Let's be real. I reckon 2018 and '19

I was making pretty good content and

I was wild and crazy, but I got older, I

matured, calmed down.

Chasing clout, it kind of got boring.

It used to be really exciting. I remember

back in 2019 Chasing clout was so

exciting. When Elvis Ado made the video

about me, I was so excited. When he came

to Japan, I was so excited to meet him.

Everything just felt so exciting. Like,

meeting Ice was so exciting.

And then COVID happened, and then

everything just changed.

I mean, I still want clout, but It

doesn't feel the same as like how it used

to feel.

I don't know what crazy wild thing I could

do now that 2019 Daniel might have done.

Just don't know. The way

I think is just so different to how I used

to think.

But what is the craziest thing you could

think I could do? Sleep with a ladyboy? I

can't because I got a girlfriend,

so I can't do that stuff.

I do want to do something wild, but I

don't want to lose money and I don't want

to cheat. So it's kind of difficult.

Also, I don't want to get arrested. You

gotta be careful in Thailand as a

foreigner. You can't expect to be able to

just do anything you want. This isn't

Japan. In Japan, you can do anything you

want, and Japanese people don't stand up

for themselves. In Thailand, you get

punched in the face. If you piss people

off. There was a Korean streamer, he got

punched in the face live.

I don't think you want to mess around with

Thai men. They're not like Japanese men.

Japanese men are very docile.

I can't imagine a Japanese man punching

someone in the face if they're provoked.

They're just so Timid.

Like, uh, Suspenders was on that train

blasting Skrillex, and the most that the

Japanese men did was just say, go away.

All they said was, うるさい,

disappear. In Japanese, we say disappear.

That was the most they could do, and

everyone was like cheering.

In the comments, they were like, oh, that

Japanese guy is so badass, he stood up to

him. All he did was say go away. That's so

weak. If it was Thailand, you get punched

I've been in this apartment for 10

months now. I guess we have to start

thinking if we want to stay here. I would

like to maybe move into a house so we can

This place is not bad, it's just— I don't

know, maybe a bigger place would be nice.

I do like how we have a swimming pool,

although I don't use it much. I go

swimming maybe twice a month.

Swimming's okay, but it gets boring after

half an hour. You just swim up and down.

How much do you make a month from YouTube?

Well, this month I've made $440 on the

main channel, $350 on the second channel.

Not rich anymore.

Can you swim? Yeah. I think

I'm not bad at swimming. It's just I run

out of breath quickly, so I can't swim

very far, but I swim faster than my

I like how the back of my head looks. I

think I cut it pretty well.

Where did I learn to swim?

I took swimming classes at school. School

when I was like 6 years old,

or maybe like 7 to 10 years old. We did

swimming classes at school. I used to hate

them. You know how cold the UK is? And we

had to get naked. There's like a big shed.

It looked like a big wooden shed with a

concrete floor. And then all the boys had

to go in, get naked, get changed, and then

marched out to the swimming pool and then

We had to get into the cold freezing

water. It was horrible. And we had these

foam boards to help us float.

And then they would put stuff in the pool

like, like plastic rings. We had to go and

swim and catch them.

I used to hate it. So cold.

And then my mum used to take me and my

sister to Maidstone Leisure Centre quite

often, and they have a massive swimming

pool. The swimming pool there is really

nice because it's, it's like a big water

park, and they had water fountains and

slides, and they had this wave machine.

So there'd be a part of the pool that was

quite deep,

and so every 30 minutes they'd turn on the

wave machine. These big waves would come,

and it's fun. And then we'd try and

swim to the deep end, which was kind of

scary because you couldn't touch the floor

because we were kids. And if

you run out of energy, you're gonna drown.

So it was fun trying to swim because they

had a bar at the deep end. So we'd try and

swim to the bar and then swim back again.

And then I'd wear goggles and go

underwater and look at women's legs.

Which was funny. I used to pee in the

swimming pool. Felt nice.

My rent is like $300 and my girlfriend

keeps saying it's really expensive, which

I find kind of surprising.

I think outside of Bangkok you could find

a place for half that, like $250, $200,

or $150 for an

out-of-the-city place.

I used to like going to the leisure

center. Sometimes my friend, my neighbor

Ricky, would come with us. So we go to

Jungle Gym, which is like this kids

obstacle course with ball pits and

net, kind of like rope net climbing stuff

and slides. And then we're playing that

and then we go swimming. They had a

tobogganing— it's like you get inside of a

potato sack and they had plastic

artificial snow mountains and then you

climb up to the top and then slide down.

And then we go swimming and then we'd be

really hungry and then we'd have like

hamburger and chips at the leisure centre,

go home, play some PlayStation, Mega

Drive. That would be a good day out.

Life was good as a kid. Can't really

complain about my childhood.

I had lots of friends, lots of activities.

Video games, stable household. My mom

always made really good food.

Yeah, childhood was good.

Now life just feels kind of boring.

Childhood is easy because your parents are

planning everything you do. Then you

become an adult. And then nothing happens

unless you make it happen. If you just sit

around doing nothing, then nothing

happens. No one's there to like,

I don't know, take you places.

You have to keep thinking what to do,

otherwise nothing happens.

What language do you speak besides

Japanese, English? I speak a bit of Korean

from when I dated a Korean girl.

Now I'm learning Thai. Next, what should I

learn? Chinese?

I know a few Chinese words like yinwei is

beautiful. Because mei

you is something doesn't exist. You or

In Thai, to exist is me, and then to not

exist is mai me. To not have, to have or

not have, mei mai me. Chinese is you mei

you.

Mimi. I like Mimi. Sounds funny.

What day

is it tomorrow? Sun— oh my God, look at

the time! 1:11:11. That is amazing.

Is anyone in Thailand? Look at the— look

at the time now. Look at the clock. Oh,

1:11:02 now. That is so weird. I look at

the time just as it's 1:11:11. That means

I'm on the right path to my destiny.

Do you feel you are domesticated now? You

can't say anything on your mind,

everything on your mind.

Maybe, but that's just— I mean, that's the

same for anyone. No one can say anything

they want. Everyone has to be careful what

Like, I can't complain endlessly about my

girlfriend cuz then she'll get upset. I

have to be careful what I say about

Thailand cuz I don't want to get arrested.

I also don't want to get demonetized, so I

don't want to swear or talk about W-A-R.

Asian Andy, I would never do what he does.

It's just embarrassing. He just strips off

his shirt in 7-Eleven and then screams or

something. I don't

like that. Stupid.

I don't mind saying dumb stuff and making

myself look look like a fool, but I

don't want to do dumb stuff like

screaming. The stuff Onision did

was just kind of embarrassing. He would

like rip his shirt off, scream,

pour kombucha over his head. I don't want

to do that ever. That's just— it's

lame.

I don't care if what I say makes me look

dumb, but I don't want to do stuff that

makes me look dumb.

Does Thai girlfriend know about your OF?

I don't know. She hasn't said anything,

but I deleted my OF. There's nothing on

it, so I don't want to get in trouble.

And it was only making like $100 a month.

It's not worth it.

I think I milked it dry.

Safer to just delete it.

Took everything down.

Gotta find a new income stream.

Am I gonna do more reactions to your old

videos? Yeah, I could do that. Video did

okay, better than everything else.

It's an easy lazy way to make some

content. Could do like reacting

to my marriage 4 years later,

5 years later, reacting to

my marriage failing or something. Well, I

could react to Chihiro and the Hong Kong

guys' livestreams. Need to blur out

her face. Reacting to my ex-wife's

lies.

Do you TTS? I do, but no one's donating.

If you donate, there'll be TTS.

I got zero Super Chat on this stream.

No, I wouldn't do it IRL. That'd just be

embarrassing, and you could get in

trouble. You might upset

the wrong person.

Did I ever find out if Mida is pregnant?

I have no idea what Mida is doing.

I found Essex Girl's TikTok. She posts a

lot of videos. She actually messaged me a

couple weeks ago.

I forgot what we talked about.

I feel like Essex Girl could be a lifelong

friend. For some reason, she keeps

messaging me. Not a lot, but at

least once every year she messages me and

then she disappears again.

So I don't know what's going on there.

Maybe she just wants to be friends, which

is weird because I don't think any other

viewer girl has wanted

to be my friend. There's actually

one other British girl I chatted to often,

but we haven't talked recently. Because

the conversations don't go anywhere. She

says, hey, what's up? And I say, not much,

how about you? And then she says, I'm

fine, how's Thailand? And then I say,

it's good, what about the UK?

The conversation is just kind of boring.

I dared you to hold the Canadian guy's

hand on the train. Oh yeah, I do kind

of remember that.

Didn't we have umbrellas? I remember me

and James on the train, he had an

umbrella. I think we were going back to

the guest house. My friend from LA? What,

the girl who does Pornhub?

I blocked her because she's so annoying.

She keeps saying stuff like, oh, I really

want to meet you, I'm gonna buy a ticket

and fly over. And then she'll say, oh,

actually I changed my mind and I canceled

it. And then a year later, oh, I want to

meet you again. I'm going to fly. Where

are you now? And then she'll say, I bought

the ticket. Oh, but I just canceled it. I

think she's either really stupid or she's

trolling me. So I blocked her. It's just

annoying because she's really hot,

but she's mentally messed up. Such a waste

of hot girl.

It's just

messing me around.

No one messages me anymore, just the Essex

girl recently.

She kept saying she's gonna come to

Manchester and she never did.

I remember going to Don Quixote with James

doing that IRL stream. And I felt so

excited to be a streamer and I felt like,

wow, I'm like Ice Poseidon. I'm streaming,

streaming outside.

Oh, thanks, Andrew, for the Super Chat.

I did really used to like the idea of

being a streamer. Because I was very

inspired by people like Ice Poseidon.

And nowadays when I watch people on Kick,

I do feel like I want to stream as well,

feel a bit motivated.

But then I do it and I just feel bored,

so I don't know what to do. You need some

kind of goal to achieve during the stream.

I got 96 followers on Kick.

I mean, Kick could be fun because I can

just react to videos and swear, talk about

whatever I want. There's no monetization.

So maybe my streams will be more

entertaining on Kick because

I don't have to worry. I'm so worried all

the time about, oh, is my stream monetized

or not? Because it's like my main

way of making money. If I lose that,

then I'm screwed.

And maybe I could do a Kick stream

tomorrow for a few hours, but I just— I'd

have like 10 viewers, won't make any

money, it'd be boring. Yeah, I can say

and do anything I want, but what's the

point when you got like 10 viewers?

Can say and do anything I want by turning

off the stream.

You would make so much on Twitch. I'm on

Twitch now. Oh no, I'm not.

I was doing a dual stream. Maybe that's

the reason why it kept disconnecting,

because I was doing a dual stream. I'm not

doing a dual stream now. Now my Twitch is

dead. I get like 10 viewers when I do a

Twitch-only stream. I make $20

a month on Twitch.

Look, Andy Milonakis gets no viewers on

Kick because he hasn't met up with Ice.

He's got— Andy Milonakis is streaming now,

he's got 160 viewers.

And this guy usually gets like 4,000

viewers on Twitch, and he's got a pretty

big Twitter social media presence.

But if he went and met up with Ice, his

viewership would skyrocket. He'd get like

4,000 or 5,000 viewers probably.

Why doesn't he just go and meet Ice?

I feel like just moving to kick alone is

not enough. You've got to be part of Ice's

circle, but then when you're not with Ice,

then your viewership will just plummet

again, won't it? What are you gonna do,

just like stick to ice for the rest of

Do I miss living at home? Yeah, sometimes

I do miss a little bit. Miss my garden.

I miss having that big kitchen as well.

I miss the peace and quiet of the

countryside. It's so loud here in Bangkok.

The traffic is so noisy,

gives me a headache.

Hoping my Armored Core video gets some

views. It only has 1,000 so far.

Uh, it dropped down to number 3. Insane

Barbarian Build overtook it. It's not

looking great. I reckon it'll get like 2K

Uh, why were these other channels getting

hundreds of thousands of views covering

these games and I'm not?

So annoying. These channels get early

access to the game a month before it comes

out.

The problem is people are realizing the

videos suck and then they're not

watching most of it and then clicking off,

which makes the algorithm think people

don't like the video.

Sometimes I say stuff that make people

click off straight away. Like, I'll say

this game is rubbish and it's not like

Zelda, and then they'll say, oh my god, I

can't believe this idiot compared it to

Zelda, I clicked off straight away. That

kind of stuff hurts the video.

It's hard. I don't know how to not say

dumb stuff.

I need to piss people off, not— but not

too much. I need them to carry on watching

the video, not click off.

The building in the garden? The cabin?

No, that wasn't for me. Imagine my mum

spending 50,000 on something for me.

I thought she was going to build a garden

cabin so she could rent it out and make

money. But my sister said she doesn't

want to do that anymore because it's too

much work. I mean, that's exactly what I

said. It's a lot of work managing

a property. There's no way my mum would

know how to do it. Number one, you need to

make an Airbnb account. I don't think she

could even do that. So she'd have to make

an Airbnb account, take photos, create a

listing, create a,

like, a business account on Airbnb. So you

gotta take all the photos and then write a

description. There's so much work that

goes into setting up an Airbnb.

And then there's risks, like the guests

could trash the place, things could break,

and then you would have to pay tax on your

earnings if she made more than $12K a

year. What's the point of it?

No point. It's a complete waste of money.

Didn't make the property go up in value.

No one uses it. It costs like 50k.

She used it a bit to like show off to her

friends and do like a massage, or maybe

she like sits outside of it doing

barbecues with her boyfriend.

She wouldn't let me cook in it. She said,

oh, you're gonna make the whole place

smell or something. There's no internet in

the cabin. The toilet— my uncle

warned us that we shouldn't do a poo in

the toilet because it could block up. So

it's just a complete waste of money and

useless. I don't know why she wanted

a garden cabin. It's so meaningless.

We already have a patio. If you want to

sit outside in the garden, just sit on the

patio. If you were gonna rent it out,

then yeah, it would have been a good idea.

But you actually have to rent it out and

make it nice for guests.

Then you could have made like $2K a month.

After 5 years, you break even.

If you're making like $2,000 a month times

12, it's like $24K. You You could have

broke even after a few years,

but then you got strangers in the garden

making a mess.

Why would I want to live there? There's no

internet. There's no internet. There's no

bed. I'm not allowed to cook in the

kitchen. I can't even poo in the toilet.

I'd rather just stay in my bedroom.

She should have put the money into S&P 500

ETF.

It would have tripled in value by now if

you invested it back in 2019.

The SPY since 2019.

Went from $280 to

now $450.

So it's, yeah, from the COVID lows it

went— it was like $220 and now it's $400.

It's more than doubled. Could have turned

that $50K into $100K.

Did you hold on to your stocks? I sold

mine back in 2021 when the markets

crashed. So glad I did,

cuz everything I had crashed even more.

They went nearly back down to zero.

Like, Tattoo Chef is Nearly at zero.

They'd gone bankrupt. Tattoo Chef is now

worth 7 cents a share, down from $24.

The NGO went down from $14 down to like

$1. I'm lucky I sold when I sold.

Otherwise, I would have lost everything.

Like the entire inheritance money would be

zero if I kept holding. None of the stocks

went back up. All the meme stocks

just went nearly to zero.

Why does she ignore my question? I said,

does your family do dowry? She then

replied, do you have lunch? Not yet.

This— the current stock market rally is

being driven by just a handful of stocks

like Apple, Microsoft, Nvidia,

Facebook,

but everything else is still gone to the

toilet, like PayPal,

Peloton, Enphase.

The banks got wrecked because of that,

um, Silicon Valley Bank thing.

So my strategy is, I mean, Microsoft

already came out with bad earnings and

dropped like 6%. Tesla came out with bad

earnings, dropped 6 7%. All it will

take is a few more of these big companies

to report bad earnings and the market is

just going to come crashing down. That's

what I'm betting on— Q3 bad earnings,

stock market correction.

And then hopefully I want to break even on

my my inverse position because I'm down

like 13% on my inverse because I thought

the market would go down more, but it just

But I think eventually it's going to

correct and I'll break even.

And then my other bets Uh,

China will stimulate the economy, their

economy around Q4.

And then Chinese stock markets will go

back up a bit because they've been taking

a beating for a while now.

And it's going to get to a point where

it's oversold and it's getting beaten up

too much. More than it should be,

and then that's when you should buy. And

then the, the government will eventually

have to stimulate their economy.

Otherwise, I mean, what are they going to

do, not stimulate the economy and then

just let the economy die? That would be

So I got a lot in emerging markets and

China ETFs, got like 4,000.

And then I got a lot in gold, I got like

5,000 in gold. I think gold will

be good.

Was your mum frivolous with money and your

dad once set her straight? My mum and

dad have very different opinions

on what you should do with money. My dad

was a saver, always very careful,

only spent money to improve the house.

Or on useful things like a new thingamajig

for his car. My mum seems to

want to spend all the money before she

dies so she can enjoy it.

My dad didn't have that mentality.

I kind of understand it though. I mean,

if someone— if I went to the doctor and

they said I've got stage 4 and I've only

got 5 months to live, then yeah, I'm going

to blow all my money.

Who am I going to give it to? I mean, my

girlfriend will be upset because I'm not

thinking about her. She'd probably want me

to give her the money,

but then I'm going to want to— I don't

know. Probably buy like a really expensive

gaming rig, $4,000 gaming
