The well goes deep with this one.

Fools and their money...

Indeed. Because Fortnite is going to be a big, popular, massive thing, forever. Definitely a solid long-term plan. That poor girl.

I like how the word "career" has evolved over time. 

Good for the wife and the kid at least, but hoping you’re gonna make a career off streaming games (let alone Fortnite, one of the most popular oversaturated games currently of all time) so you can support your family is sort of pathetic and short sighted. 

If I was the girlfriend’s father I would have paid this young man a visit long ago and had a very serious talk with him about expectations and responsibilities.  

If the mother’s income is sufficient to cover all of the household needs, that’s absolutely true.

The father’s chosen profession, however, introduces another problem: Streaming, if it’s ever going to amount to a “career,” requires a pretty hellish schedule in terms of being “on” for viewers. The average denizen of the…

This article is a masterclass in the idea that it’s entirely possible to feel two conflicting emotions about two parts of an event at once.

Crying for his child and girlfriend that have to suffer because of his idiocy, I hope.

“My girlfriend has worked full-time to support my career as a Fortnite streamer, so I owe it to her and my four-year-old son...”

Yo this is horseshit, get a real job to support your family you fucking scrub. You got lucky.

Totally not staged for publicity.

“I do not have a very high income,” Exotic Chaotic said. “My girlfriend has worked full-time to support my career as a Fortnite streamer, so I owe it to her and my four-year-old son to protect and grow this money for their futures.”

This dude really makes his girlfriend work full time for him so he can play fortnite. She needs to break up with him. That's just wrong. 🤦‍♂️

If I was at Chili's I'd be crying too.

“career as a Fortnite streamer”

“My girlfriend has worked full-time to support my career as a Fortnite streamer, so I owe it to her and my four-year-old son to protect and grow this money for their futures.” 

“girlfriend has worked full time to support my caree....” for fuck sake.

If he was that finacaly troubled why didn’t he pick up a day job? I get wanting to make your dream job real but at some point, and that point is not after having a kid, you need to make it a side project and not the main income if it isn’t working out quite yet.
