Asmongold reveals how much he lost in stream
In a recent stream, the Twitch streamer and One True King co-founder disclosed that he had lost a large sum of money. Before revealing the number, he asked his stream whether they had lost their money as well:
"How many of you guys lost money in the stock market recently? With the recession happening..."
Upon being asked about the amount of money that he lost, Asmongold responded:
"Me? I lost a lot of money...I did."
Viewers tried guessing the amount that he had lost. One suggested a ballpark figure of $20k, and the streamer countered:
I lost about 20K?...man, I wish that's much as I lost."
He further added:
"Do you need to talk about how much I lose? Over a hundred fifty thousand dollars a month...yeah. It's a lot..."
One of the reviewers commented that it was not that bad or big of a loss. Zack replied:
"That's not too bad? yeah, yeah I mean it could be a lot worse, right guys? I mean s**t, it could be a lot worse."
The 32-year-old OTK founder also disclosed that his lifestyle is relatively modest and moderate, unlike other successful streamers. Zack revealed to his stream that his monthly expenses typically do not cross two thousand dollars, which is why $150k was a huge loss for him.
"The thing is guys, I live on like two thousand dollars a month."
