Can Jeremy Hambly Not Afford X Premium?
Sources speculate $3 a month might be too much for the failing livestreamer
On a June 11 livestream, Jeremy Dale Hambly of Wisconsin, alternatively known as TheQuartering and CofeeCow (trademarked lolcownews.com), played videos directly on the X website.
In view during these videos was a sidebar in the X interface displaying the message, “Your Premium subscription is expiring! Keep the best of X, Blue checkmark, Reply boost, increased Grok limits and much more.”
Considering Hambly’s well-known preoccupation with X (which recently prompted a 20-day hiatus from the website) and his reliance on Grok to generate scripts on such topics as America’s addiction to DoorDash, it’s unclear why Hambly would be in danger of having his X Premium subscription lapse.
X currently offers three tiers of Premium: Basic at $3 a month, Premium at $8 a month, and Premium+ at $40 a month.
Hambly has done very well for himself as a YouTube ragebait slop-poster and has, at various times, proclaimed himself to be a millionaire, complete with a collection of Rolexes, planes for both himself and his wife, a water-cooled PlayStation 5, and a saltwater aquarium in his home.
Conversely, he’s also painted himself as desperately indebted and begging his audience to buy his coffee and send in Superchats and purchase channel memberships.
There’s no denying that Hambly’s YouTube views have dropped off in just the last year. His videos, which used to get hundreds of thousands of views, now frequently struggle to make it past 50,000 views. And with the drop-off in views comes the inevitable drop-off in ad revenue.
Given all this, it’s a fair question to ask: Can Jeremy Hambly not afford a $3-a-month X Premium subscription?
Some speculate it’s because he’s a broke bum bitch, but no official confirmation has been received.
We’ll keep you updated when and if Hambly renews his X Premium subscription.
