Second Wind lost $40K in Q3 2024.

Now, who could've seen that happening? DHI did. DHI is always right!

I hope they keep going and lose even more in 2025.

That Q3 report looks even worse when you look at the previous ones for this year. Q1 report showed a net income of almost $110k while Q2 report has a net loss of over $13k. Their Patreon has been declining for this year from Q1 of over $211k to Q3 of over $146k. Another thing that hurt their income was the increase in salaries. In Q1 the salaries expense was over $170k while in Q3 it's over $240k. https://www.patreon.com/posts/second-wind-q1-101661808 https://www.patreon.com/posts/second-wind-q2-107760120

Surely more salaries ought to fix their declining profits!

So the initial question has to be restated: Why does Nahtzee feel the need to run a company with losers in tow and didn't go lone wolf as he should've way back in the very beginning of Zero Punctuation?

Also one would assume he knows a thing or two from going under from the Mana Bar that sank.

With the EssGayPiss I thought he felt "loyalty" to the Gapeist for some cuck reason. Now with the Second Wind faggots I realized this whole time it was regular IN faggotry. The inability to manage money. The dumb desire for useless barnacles/hanger ons.

I assume it's the same reason as Doge Walker: They want to just focus on making videos and leave the whole running the business to somebody else instead.

He's like his nakama MovieBlob in that he thinks he has to be attached to some kind of game journo site in order to be considered a professional online sensation.

Every "pioneer" IN has a mind rotted by old media. They seek legitimacy where isn't necessary.

Nick Calandra needs the extra salary. Dickriding Alyssa Mercante, going on trips, and taking bribes from publishers ain't cheap.
