On October 19, Trainwrecks was playing Overwatch 2 with his friends who were streaming at the time, when he ultimately decided to be completely honest and reveal how much he was actually paid by his gambling sponsor Stake.

“I’ll release what I got paid since the beginning of my contract. I’ve been paid $360 million for 16 months of gambling,” he said.

“It’s released, it’s done, there you go you dumb f**ks,” he added. “I could buy Hasan, Poki, and Ludwig all together and sell them and buy them again, f**king pussies.”

The Twitch star further revealed that out of the $360 million he earned, more than $70 million of that was given to his community.

“You wanna know what’s crazy? Of that $360 million, I’ve given away off-stream and on-stream like close to $70 million. Like $75 million. Think about that.”

Over the 16 months that Train was gambling, it works out that he was paid $22.5 million a month, or just over a staggering $30,821 an hour.
