Jesus, we just got 3 straight hours of exposition in the middle of the show, and yet, it was enjoyable, a lot of foreshadowed mysteries were explained and we got a lot of character analysis. Very sweet arc, can't wait for the continuation. Best show ever.

[@jacob_ian_decoursey_the_author]

Moral of the story: If you are self-employed, calculate and pay your taxes quarterly to avoid getting burned. Also get some of that Obamacare/ACA health insurance to keep yourself from accruing more tax penalty...and also have insurance. Also, ALSO, find as many things as possible you can write off as expenses (gas/miles, equipment, computers and parts, even some meals or your home rent in certain circumstances, as many things as you pay for to keep your income coming, see if you can expense or deduct it). As a KZbinr, the government sees you as a freelancer or business-owner. So there are ways to game that so you legally owe little or no tax. But you need to do it legitimately and knowledgeably. Tl;dr: Buy Turbotax and keep track of all your expenses, keep them receipts. You'll be fine. Love what ya do! And I don't even like anime all that much. Just a fan of gonzo analysis. Keep weird, yo.

25% or 15% federal taxes depending on the status of marriage, we know with certainty that he made at least 70k in that year (potentially even 28% without leaning too far out of the roof). Then 5.1% income tax.

[@AntiNihilist]

@@Akixkisu are you sure he made 70k? Because at the time when he said he had 24k saved up he had been living in a rent free house. In the course of a year I don't think he could have spend 50k on...food, utilities, and I can't think of much else he'd be buying. Also I'm sure there's some entrepreneur based tax specifics he is getting wrong. He should pay for a professional to do his taxes at this point. That said, the late fees are what are really gonna get him now.

[@Akixkisu]

​@@AntiNihilist ​ Like I said with certainty, his biggest fixed income has been Patreon for a while now graphtreon.com/creator/digibro there are also other avenues of income that you can easily track.

[@MissSmilesas]

$15K is a reasonable rate for annual taxes, to pay that he would have fallen into the 22% tax bracket and make $68K. If you’re living in a city, $68K can go pretty quick since you spend most of it on rent.

I've learnt a lot from watching the whole video, particularly about things I would never have thought of or considered asking or finding out about. So I'd say experience has a lot to do with it too.

Completely unrelated to the main story here, and I say this from my heart Digi; The BMW might be another bad choice. *Not that they are bad cars.* Not that you shouldn't be proud for being able to own one. Also, I know that the tire problem comes down to the car not coming with a full-size spare. Its a ploy that even cheaper car brands do to have people come into the dealership. But as time wears on, even with low mileage, BMW's wear out and depreciate like mad with very, *very* high repair costs. Its not their engines, body work, or even other mechanical parts that are the problem. Its the electronics that they pack in. They may have up to a hundred different computers (modules); meaning its simply a game of chance. Mathematically, its more likely for something in a system to break the more separate parts it has, even if its well built. As I've heard, once you go over 5 years (something like 70k to 100k miles) with a BMW, the risk of something needing repaired goes up drastically. I wouldn't say anything, but you seem to be the kind of person that is very put off (and I mean deeply mentally frustrated) with any inconvenience that is outside your expertise, exemplified in this tire incident. (Though I understand that the flat came at a doubly inconvenient time) But, I have faith you know what you're doing. Just a little warning I've heard over and over again from independent mechanics.

I still think you can make gaming stuff work. But not lets plays. This is personal opinion but your strongest stuff (not necessarily the most profitable, I know) is your analysis. Or, perhaps, the presentation of your analysis. I'm not certain which is more important, but both are necessary. Who gives a crap if you can't beat game x on difficulty y, I don't come to you for speed running information. I don't talk to friends about your channel as "that anituber" I say "the anime analysis guy I watch on youtube". Tell me about the directing, the design. if possible, dive into it like you do anime: "person x made or did this part of anime y and, guess what, turns out they did this other anime so that's why the following statement is true..blah blah blah". That'd be pretty cool. In an old video of yours you mentioned anime community is one of the most welcoming, specifically in comparison to gaming or mlp. So maybe user your fanbase as a springboard (which I assume you were trying to do with Iam games). Forget the non-anime fan gamers for the moment as you try to break through. Some portion of them like your analysis videos above all, memetics aside, so perhaps that angle is the key to leverage a new base. I know analysis videos are not cost effective, but what about secondary benefits? Didn't shitting on SAO get you a surge in fans? Some of those stuck around right? Sure that was not high effort, but I think the high effort stuff serves a similar function. bottom line, you'll get eyes on the channel. So a high effort low return that gets you more eyes in general, so more eyes on the low effort more return stuff as well right? You might never be Dunkey, but I don't know many anime fans that don't game, and they have gaming friends, and there's room there. Maybe do all the games anime fans like first. You know your content cost benefit better than anyone, so this is just food for thought. I would personally enjoy analytical game content. I don't even like Pokemon and I sat through at least one whole game review of yours from way back in the day.

Oh yeah, she totally was not legally allowed to do that. Changes to the lease (either a substantial increase to rent or the inclusion of groundskeeping) would have to be agreed to by both parties and an ammendment signed. Obviously it's already done and gone, but for others out there who may be in similar circumstances, here are a couple options: You could negotiate a lower rent in exchange for the inclusion of groundskeeping You could simply state "I have signed a lease and do not wish to make any changes to it." Or if you're in Digi's scenario where really you'd love to just move out, that would be a great time to negotiate an early end to the lease. It simultaneously allows the landlord to modify the lease for future tenants, while also allowing yourself an early out to a situation you don't want in the first place
