Living on Hot Pockets and Dreams: How I Stream at Starbucks
Now some of you may already know my story. My mom, my dad, and the infamous hot pocket incident are all behind me. I’ve decided it’s time to turn the page to embrace adulthood and maturity. This means finding a real job...so I’m dedicating myself fully to streaming.

Heres a selection of games i feel will do well:
🎮 Rocket League – Gold 2 gameplay, because diamonds are overrated.
🎮 Tekken 7 – Maining King and Lucky Chloe (yes, I said Lucky Chloe, deal with it).
🎮 Tekken: Bloodline – Because watching anime counts as gaming.
🎮 Elden Ring – ONLY magic builds. No online, no exceptions.
🎮 The Persona Series – For the cultured among us (tips fedora).
🎮 HyperDimension Neptunia – Weebs, rise up.

I’m open to suggestions. Got a game you think will elevate my content? Let me know! Or tell me how to improve my setup though keep in mind, I’m working with Starbucks and a toshiba so cut me some slack.

💸 To My Future Subs: Don’t worry—your hard-earned money won’t fund overpriced lattes. It’ll go toward life’s essentials: DoorDash and Uber Eats. (A man’s gotta eat.)

For those of you who think streaming isn’t a real job, I’m also considering dropshipping to make a little money on the side.

No clue who you are, so pardon that.

I mean, it's your call, but steaming seems like something you'd want to do after you were retired...Or as like a hobby when you aren't doing your other work. I get that there is money in it, but I'm just thinking it might be a sub-optimal use of a younger person's time. I don't know your age. Leave streaming to people that can't do other things (unless that's you).

Are you physically able enough to get like a job in construction? Pays well and good exercise. Not much, if any, schooling requirement.

Military, if you are eligible. Something like only 1 in 40 is even eligible, so if you are, worth considering. They can give you money for college too, if schooling is something you need for a later career.

If you are smart, could try for college via scholarship. I don't recommend getting loans, but scholarships are good if you got the brains and motivation.

Guys thank you but i already have a job and its to stream and dropship! Im homeless my mom kicked me out at 32 years her own son, and not even my dad will help me. Im fully dependent on myself at this point Its all up to me thats why im asking for advice on streaming.

As i have mentioned in previous threads i have several online girlfriends i can stay with for periods of time if needed.

At this point in life I just need to establish a name in the streaming community. Any advice helps.

You could Stream as a homeless person. It'll be a gimmick that might just work.
