Asmongold, the Twitch legend, recently explained why he has never signed a streaming contract - even if someone held a cool $1 billion in his face. It turns out that his passion for 'freedom' is greater than even the most jaw-dropping paychecks.
As soon as the news came out someone (@stephskii) took to her X account and commented:
"Rich people are so annoying :)"
It is refreshing to see somebody who will say 'no thanks. I'm going to pass on the billion-dollar contract', while all of us are out here trying to figure out if we could sell our soul for half that. Asmongold said:
"I never pursued a contract like that because I didn’t like feeling committed to streaming. Like, to me, freedom in my life is the most important thing and there is not a dollar amount that you can put on that number that would be worth it to me...That is more valuable to me than any amount of money, and so that’s why I didn’t sign the contract and I didn’t do it. It was that and the ads."
The theatrics have hit maximum entertainment levels, and now we get to sit back and indulge in what the fans are saying about all of it because if one thing the internet excels at, it is making mayhem into hilarity.
Netizens have reacted to Asmongold saying he would reject billion-dollar streaming deals to maintain his “freedom”
Some people laughed and said that Asmongold knew no one was going to give him a billion dollars. It is like he is playing coy with an offer that was never on the table, to begin with - comedy gold. Here's how netizens reacted:
"Nobody is giving that dude a billion wtf", one user commented.
"Easy for a millionaire to say", another netizen wrote.
"He's rich so", a netizen expressed.
Then some people hilariously reflect all of our inner voice. While others say that Asmongold is just flexing:
"Okay then give it to me I caccept very happily", a user wrote.
"Hes basically just flexing on us lol", a netizen commented.
"Ill take it if he does not want it", a user wrote.
While the rest of us might be plotting how to sign that next big deal, Asmongold over here proves that sometimes the best thing you can do is your name on your terms.
