In
last night's stream around the 8:30 mark (unavailable in the U.S. because Mr. Based is an idiot and got it copyright claimed), Josh expressed a desire to get a forehead tattoo and when Mr. Based tried to discourage him, he started talking about getting an Indian red dot instead. I plan to clip it later and never want this summer to end.
Josh in a cab ride ride after his most recent freak out is now realizing that he would be better off getting a real job and quitting tiktok...
I can't tell what's more funny, that he's unironically considering working in fast food, or that he legitimately thinks his captain's hat and piss-stained Gucci belt are worth money.
Mr Based sounds like he's losing more patience with Josh lately
He's probably realizing that being a full-time tard wrangler for good money is a huge compromise. I caught autism doing this math so nobody else has to. I watched the entire
Coney Island stream to extrapolate these numbers.
Mr. Based made $2,735 in 4:18:28 with an outlier $100 donation. Discarding the outlier, for 258.47 minutes of streaming, this is $10.20 per minute of "work," which mostly involves getting high and filming a retard pick his nose, taste his own earwax, play on his phone, and occasionally sperg out and bite his hand.
The average duration of the last 5 streams still published is 8,813.6 seconds or 146.89 minutes each. This works out to about $1,498.28 per stream. Assuming 260 work days per year, though in reality they seem to "work" all 365 days, this amounts to $389,552.80 gross income per year for Mr. Based.
Taking Josh's word that he "only makes $60,000 per year," and assuming all his income comes from Mr. Based, the pimp still clears $329,552.80 before taxes. This puts him in the 35% tax bracket, so after taxes, his net income is a cool $214,209.32 annually.
I didn't factor in operating costs like paying for Josh to be a homeless alcoholic, but apparently hotels in NYC cost
$301 per night on average [a], so he's essentially paying $109,865 annually for easy access to Josh to make this scam work.
This seems to be why he's so keen to get Josh into his apartment building, it takes a huge cut of the profit and is the difference between continuing this nonsense and getting a normal six-figure salary job as a product manager or whatever.
The average
studio rent in East Village is $3,150 [a], cutting down the business expense of housing Josh to only $37,800 per year. Take these numbers with a grain of salt, as I'm assuming things like a criminal paying taxes and such. It's safe to say that Mr. Based most likely nets a quarter mill off his grift, given conservative estimates.
