AstroGalaxy [#2]50k in La goes away faster than my boner bro
FOR ANYONE RICH they should be making 50k a year
tenz ASSSUNA ect
like 4k a month and you dont have a housepayment and realistically you dont need a car living in LA nd being a gamer you dont go outside

people need their gucci shit, door dash Partner, ect, If tenz was humble he would be getting paid 50k a year
It’s not horrible when they finally come out with team skins and if you make champs.
It’s pretty embarrassing for a pro of any sport to make 50k. Just shows how far from a real sport E-sports is.
I made more than 50k a year as a bartender and I make 70k a year as a manager at coca-cola.
It’s just weird to be one of the best players in the world and make less than a manager at Applebees
Idk. we can assume that the people that rise to the top of esports are above average IQ, more often than not. Esports careers are often short, and you can very easily go from t1 play to t3 in a year or two, unable to make a reasonable income. Just compare rhyme in EU, who was at the peak of his career and building upon and IGL role as a decent fragger that could have had many years more competing. He chose the safer path of a presumably steady programming career after education for whatever benefits playing would have yielded. Often a real job is less stress, fewer hours and offers more in the way of building toward long term financial compensation.

How much he gets paid?
Shawn23 [#9]i mean that’s tier 2
this is a bad salary even to a tier 2 brazilian player, even that 1 dolar = 5 real, imagine to a na player

yh but esport orgs don't make that much to justify 6 digit salaries for every player. i think 60k-80k makes sense for the avg t1 pro and thats without the tournament earnings.

but you have to remember that this is 50k with presumably free housing, housing usually is ~30% of the average American salary in reality, your 70k at CocaCola is ~50k.
And you have to remember, not matter how hard these guys work might be, at the end of the day they sit in a chair doing what they love- playing video games, and to make ANY amount of money playing video games is a dream for many people, there are some people that would rather make 50k playing video games than 150k working a 9-5 no matter how delusional that opinion is, its something people are willing to do.
well, youtube pays more than this shit salary.
