A Twitch streamer who makes his money through casino streams has gifted his parents for Christmas: He paid off the remaining mortgage on their house. Xposed (25) expressed his gratitude for the carefree childhood he and his siblings enjoyed thanks to his parents’ efforts. This brought tears to Mom and Dad.
Who is the streamer?
- Cody “Xposed” Brunett is one of the successful casino streamers on Twitch worldwide. Following well-known “slot” players like Trainwreckstv and ROSHTEIN, the role model of MontanaBlack, his channel is one of the most watched. Last year, he played 1859 hours of “slots” on Twitch.
- The streamer is 25 years old, has been on Twitch for 7 years, and lives in Ontario, Canada. He took a year off from streaming while completing his high school diploma but then started again, forgoing his university education, because friends and his girlfriend encouraged him to stream instead.

Streamer gifts parents by paying off their mortgage
This is the scene: It is quite a chaotic Christmas celebration to watch. Children are screaming and sucking on something, unpacked gifts are lying everywhere next to the wrapping paper, Dad is already moving the first packages aside under the tree while the children hold their new toys in their hands.
Mom and Dad have gathered under the Christmas tree to open gifts. The mother reads a letter from her son amid all the commotion, who is sitting away from the camera’s focus.
The mother reads:
Mom and Dad, you have worked incredibly hard, and you have done everything for each of us. […] You bought me all my hockey sticks, I will never forget that. Thank you for being the best grandparents one could wish for. In my current situation, there is nothing I would rather do than pay off the rest of your mortgage.
The mother breaks down in tears at that point, and the attentive son immediately hands her a tissue. The father also tears up.
When the mother is somewhat back to herself, she reads the last sentence: “You deserve it. Retire early, Dad.” Then there is cuddling.
This is how it is being discussed: On Twitter and Instagram, many are writing about how much it has inspired them. This is a great action by the streamer. Especially the reaction of the father moves many, that the action brings a “real man” to tears impresses people.
On Instagram, one writes: “Dad looks at the check and exclaims: HEY, that’s pretty GOOD!”
One user says: That is indeed a life goal, to enable something like this for one’s parents.

Moreover, the risk of addiction is extraordinarily high:
