If you still worry about money to the point you have to ponder the decision of giving some spare cash to the anime girl you enjoy watching (membership, SC, merch, etc.), then you are you are not working hard enough or earning enough.

NTA but I donated at least $36,500, probably a lot more. Depending on what time of the year it is, whether I've maxed out my 401k or not, $100 a day is about 30% or 60% of my take home pay. I'm probably going to slow down now. My mental health was not good this year, and it only kept getting worse. I don't regret a single penny of it, it went to an indie vtuber and supported her streaming, but at some point I started waking up in the morning and felt like the edge of my bed dropped off into a yawning empty void and I was standing on the edge looking down. I think she wanted something I couldn't give her, and I wanted something she couldn't give me.

She probably wanted you to increase your take home pay. I make about $100 per hour before taxes, so that's 12.5%, but I still never gave a red cent to any of them for years. Recently my final last vtuber until she graduates gets some membership gifts when needed, it makes me sick though when I think how much of that youtube has taken, plus unlike superchats sales tax is applied to membership gifts.

Beggars are either underage, early 20's and poor or perma NEETs who don't know what it's like to have surplus income. Also possibly (likely) third world and thus poor by default. The idea of giving such a small, insignificant amount of money for membership to support a creator they like is so alien to them because they aren't in a position to do so. Fauna's membership for example is a paltry sum to me. It'd cost more to order in a big mac meal.

That or they have regressive views about supporting creators and aren't real fans and thus should be ignored altogether.

2views, and even some bigger vtubers, play a dangerous game when they start thinking about "most dedicated fans", or giving certain individuals special treatment. That sort of behavior can alienate everybody else watching at best, and cause schizos to lose their minds and make up crazy rrats at worst (just look at how eternally butthurt some people on /vt/ get over mods in chat). Then there's the actual groomers who get aggressive over what they think are other groomers stepping in on their "territory".

For me it was never really about receiving something in return for the donation, not any more than the standard "thank you" that all donations get. I never felt like I somehow deserved something special for it or like there were strings attached which is why they were all anonymous. I'd probably have felt bad if she was blowing it all on gacha games or something, but that really wasn't the case, I wouldn't have donated to a streamer like that anyways.

This kind of insane behavior was normal back in the day when geishas and courtesans were around.
Some men would drop a years' worth of salary to go on a date with some of the top courtesans for a day.
That's what female vTubers and egirls are basically. Virtual girlfriend that you go on e-dates with... along several other thousand guys.

We've come full circle and people have become so isolated that they have to pay for a courtesan for female attention (not even sex). Just like in ancient times.

The sad truth is that the modern day loneliness or incel "epidemic" is actually not modern at all. It's always been like this for men. The vast majority of men throughout recorded history have never actually had girlfriends or fathered children, and they've always had to cope with something less. DNA studies estimate that 8000 years ago 17 women reproduced for every 1 man. Women have always found ways to exploit this, and men have always happily paid money and resources to take the pain away if even for a moment.

Most men alive today probably shouldn't be, myself included. In the past we would have been culled by wars and famines.
