Sykkuno sets critics straight after being accused of \u2018flexing his wealth\u2019 Instagram: sykkunoPopular streamer Sykkuno turned the tables on a viewer who accused him of \u201cflexing\u201d his wealth during a live stream, revealing his surprisingly low-key lifestyle in spite of being a top tier creator. Sykkuno is a hugely popular broadcaster who recently made the jump from Twitch to YouTube after signing an exclusive contract with the platform in May 2022. Boasting over 2.8 million subscribers (as opposed to his 4 million Twitch followers), it\u2019s easy to think Sykkuno is rolling in the dough and spending money like a high roller\u2026 but that isn\u2019t the case. During a recent live stream, one of Sykk\u2019s viewers accused the streamer of \u201cflexing that you\u2019re rich\u201d while he was discussing the price of flights for a possible overseas trip. Sykkuno had a surprising response for this assumption, revealing that he actually lives quite frugally in spite of what some critics might think. \u201c\u2018Flexing that you\u2019re rich?’\u201d He read the viewer\u2019s comment aloud. \u201cI wouldn\u2019t say that, but I did see a clip of Fuslie getting called poor by some random lady on the airplane. It\u2019s like 10k for business class.\u201d \u201cYeah, that\u2019s a lot of money guys,\u201d he continued. \u201cI\u2019m still driving a 2005 Prius. I\u2019m not even gonna lie, just the flight will cost more than my car, which is \u2014 that\u2019s a lot, you know? I think it\u2019s a lot. New car, or a flight? New car I could probably get more use out of. Trips are fun, but a new car would be a little nicer maybe.\u201d This isn\u2019t the first time Sykkuno has gotten backlash over his income; back in 2021, the streamer was accused of \u201cpoor baiting\u201d due to his frugal lifestyle after the viral Twitch earnings leak showed he garnered around $1.1 million a year. It\u2019s clear that Sykkuno has his priorities in order, notably saying of his income level: \u201c\u201cNo matter how much money I make, I still want the same thing, you know? I\u2019m just a dude that started streaming to try and make friends, have fun, and play games.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
