Will Tyler1 take a gambling sponsorship?

(start watching from 10:58:47 to see the full clip)

The clip is sarcastically named "big t's got principles" by an anti-gambling viewer (@vonsway_). This is in reference to the streamer very clearly stating that it would be stupid not to take a gambling sponsorship if the sponsor is offering a gigantic sum of money.

A viewer had asked the streamer if he would take 20 million USD a month for a gambling sponsorship, to which the streamer’s response was this:

"YEAH. You stupid? 20 million dollars a month for a gambling sponsorship? Yeah, I don't give a f**k."

In the viral clip, Tyler1 also went on to reveal his average monthly income from streaming and how it makes it all the more clear why a streamer, even an extremely popular one such as himself, would take a gambling sponsorship regardless of if he supported the practice or not.

"I make 200 dollars a month right now. Are you kidding me? Who would not take 20 million dollars a month?"

He also sheds light on the fact that streamers will often look to improve their income instead of trying to benefit their viewers.

"Oh, the viewers? I don't give a f**k. I don't care, bro. If you guys get scammed, if you guys waste your money, that's not my problem."

The streamer also made a hilarious remark towards the end where he insinuated that for that amount of money, he would scam his viewers himself. This comment was made in an effort to emphasize how much money that really is.

"20 million dollars a month! F**king I'll scam you for 20 million dollars. I do not care. What kind of dumba** question is that?"

When questioned later in the stream whether he would take a similar sponsorship but for a less amount of money, he remained unresponsive. That is one of the central questions occupying the minds of the fans who are still discussing this clip.
