well seeing as people like destiny are able to sustain themselves off it. whatever it may be it must be a nice chunk of side change

well destiny said he gets like 1.5k or something from just streaming so if idra is making that + his salary + any tournament winnings, he's not doing to bad :p.

I tried many searches on google and found no "payout limit" for justin tv.
Destiny also posted that he makes around 4-6k$ a month streaming.
Are you saying that they actually only pay him 1500$ a month, and the rest is dept to be paid out over years?
If this is true, that is pretty bullshit.

ah I thought destiny posted 2k but I wasn't sure. I just know he makes at minimum 1.5k I just couldn't remember exactly.
if the limit is 4-6 k thats still doing fine lol, I mean if he made 6k every month thats 72000 a year. I would take that :D

You also have to remember that Destiny does a lot of lessons too. I think $40 a hour.
Although I wouldn't doubt that he makes $4-6k a month either, since he practically streams for the whole day when he's on.

Its 2 dollar per 1000 viewers per commercial. His average viewer count is around 10000 I think. Something like that. So that is 20 dollars per commercial. After every game he throws in a commercial. I think his average game lenght is around 8 minutes(real life minutes). So that is 7.5 per hour.
4x7.5=30 30x20=600 dollars a day if he streams 4 hours. Freaking sick isnt it? lol he definitely makes a shitload from his stream, but you used extremely generous estimations for every single factor that went into that 600$
$600 a day is not a bad living but you won't be driving a Bugatti Veyron on that. A Porsche, yes.

Well i would say IdrA has earned the money he makes. Definitely considered one of the best foreign zergs around. Plus after the hours he put into Brood War and his living conditions then i'm sure its pretty well deserved
If he had a porsche he needs to put a picture up O.o

idaho, and I don't have latency anymore. About a month or 2 ago the latency went away for me. 90% of the time I play on korea latency is like NA for me, sometimes on a rare occasion I have a little bit of latency but not bad at all.

He posted an earning of 4000$ on a month where he didn't even stream for around 8 days.
So I rounded up to around 5-6k if he streamed every single day of the week.
I dunno, youtube and justintv are really shut mouthed about that stuff.
I know for a fact that Husky and HD could make over 100k a year if they uploaded enough videos with their 500k+ subs.

It says on the frontpage that thats his return date. I'm pretty sure it has been 3 months :/

^ He could very possibly be renting it. About $2000 a day. Although even that seems to expensive for his money income? Maybe?
And it's possible he's just checking one out at an exotic dealership of sorts. Or it could be photoshopped, whatever.
Players with high knowledge of the game can really enjoy IdrA's commentary. Players with mediocre knowlege, who think that they're pros but can not be pros because they don't play that much, can pretend to enjoy IdrA's commentary. Players with little or no knowledge at all will not enjoy IdrA's commentary.
I really disagree with this. TotalBiscuit said this once, and now everyone low level mindlessly repeats it.
People enjoy who they enjoy for fucks sake. So obnoxious when people say things like that. I enjoy Huskys casts (who actually offers more insight than more casters anyways), and I enjoy Idra cast. Whatever.
People who don't like Idra casting just don't like his voice and are shallow. People who do like Idra casting appreciate the insight, and are usually people who are lower level players than him. Although this kind of means Diamond to Bronze, this is pretty much everyone lol.

So... how much does he make if he streams while coaching?
Just a thought

alright just woke up I want to share my dream I had about idra. This is really creepy.
idra was in Toronto (city where I live) visiting his gf. When he arrived he found out that his gf's grandma died and the funeral was being held during the time he was visiting. They went to idras gf's cousins (who were imaginary friends of mine) to get a suit that fit idra so he could attend the funeral. My friend offered idra a beer and then the dream ended.
LOL
