Shroud explains why he \u2018doesn\u2019t mind\u2019 losing half his money to taxes Twitch: shroudTaxes are the bane of many top celebrities, and the biggest streamers are no exception, giving up potentially millions of dollars each year. [jwplayer FBWgGe8Y] While many would complain, Michael \u2018shroud\u2019 Grzesiek has actually explained that he doesn\u2019t care about losing half his money to taxes \u2014 and it\u2019s probably a pretty sizable amount of cash considering the crazy year he\u2019s had. It was rumored that shroud received a $10 million payout following the closure of Mixer, where he signed an exclusive streaming deal in 2019, following in similar footsteps to Tyler \u2018Ninja\u2019 Blevins. On top of that single payout, shroud makes considerably more from his stream with donations, subscriptions, brand deals and more all helping line his bank account. So, with shroud saying that he loses \u201chalf of his money\u201d to taxes, it\u2019s likely that he\u2019s paying out a healthy seven-figure sum each year but it doesn\u2019t bother him. \u201cI don\u2019t really care too much about taxes,\u201d he said in his October 6 Twitch stream. \u201cNo matter what, to be in this position, of being somebody who plays video games for a living\u2026 I genuinely don\u2019t care.\u201d That wasn\u2019t all, though. He continued: \u201cYeah, it sucks, half of my money is gone, but the fact I even have that much money in the first place\u2026 I\u2019m literally sitting here on my a*s, doing nothing. I really don\u2019t care.\u201d Shroud goes on to reiterate how grateful he is to be in his current position, where he can simply sit and play video games for ten hours and make such a solid living off of it. That said, losing millions each year must be hard to stomach at times even for shroud, but he makes a fair point: if we could make that much money each year playing video games, we probably wouldn\u2019t mind having to pay those taxes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
