Fans recommend him to leave the country
What do his fans say about it? Under MontanaBlack’s Twitter post, various responses accumulated. From jokes to accusations against the 34-year-old:
- TheViice can’t believe it: “What kind of ouch? That’s such a luxury problem. You should be more grateful that you can earn so much money instead of wanting more and more.”
- Elias doesn’t understand: “I don’t get how one would rather forgo this money than unregister from this country and live somewhere else. Pure comfort zone to stay here.”
- Geko jokes: “Brother, I don’t even know how to pronounce the number.”
- Alex undercover accuses him: “Says a lot about a person’s character when he complains about taxes, but earns so much only because the state has paid for several detoxifications and withdrawals for him. All of this during times of Corona and threats of a nuclear war … the bubble is real.”
However, the fans are not the first to come up with the idea that the streamer would have more benefits living in another country.
MontanaBlack himself has already thought about moving to Malta in the past to escape the high taxes and the gambling ban on Twitch.
