I love that when you get as absurdly rich as this guy you get so bored that you just start playing around with the rules of ordinary society like a kitten and a ball of yarn.

PEWDs and Notch are proof that you should keep Swedes away from money. The second they have more cash than their fellow Socialist brothers and sisters they turn into horrible little gremlins.

You know that he and Notch will be dead broke within ten years because they're dipshits that spend their money on whatever idiot thing their heart desires and don't put a single dime into any kind of savings.

Apparently living in Sweeden he gets buttfucked on taxes (over 50%), but I've seen his net worth estimated as high as $90M.

Is that $90M USD or is it in some other made up currency, like his career.

Because millions and millions of children and dumb teenagers like to watch grown men screech on YouTube and will click on your videos and make you money.

You have to screech in the right way though, and there are already too many YouTube screechers so you have to find some way to differentiate your YouTube screeching.

Pretty sure paying people to hold up Nazi signs is the exact opposite of humor, right along there with rape jokes, but I guess I'm not a Youtube internet superstar so maybe I don't really know? :shrug:

Both of these can potentially be funny but it requires comedic talent and welp...

The funniest thing about all this is the fact that Pewdiepie has been doing the ironic controversial stuff for months. Like only NOW are people making a hubbub about it due to the press covering it. This means all his sponsors and Youtube themselves literally never watched any of his recent videos to make sure he was still just a dude playing games. Can't wait for the ten millionth videos on pewdiepie by h3h3 covering this.

In case you're wondering though, new Pewdiepie sucks rear end. He's trying to be relevant by imitating current Youtubers and he steals (tbf with credit) stuff like the anime hitler intro instead of making content on his own.
