Financhu Crisis

“	I do not feel I would be mentally suited for an application-required, long waits to be contacted or not contacted, "am I hired yet", under "The Man", Freaking job!!! Stop Telling me to "Get a Job". Gawd!!!	”
Chris, April 2017, after his friends on Facebook refused to entertain his nonsense excuses for not having a job.

Chris's online activity for much of 2016

The Financhu Crisis is a term coined by users from Kiwi Farms to describe the steep decline in the Chandler family's financial management beginning in early 2016.

Signs of the Chandlers' worsening finances were made apparent by the increasing amounts of begging videos and donation requests on YouTube and Facebook.

Given that Barb is elderly on a fixed income, and Chris is lazy on a fixed income, one could only bleakly speculate what will happen when Chris is eventually left to fend for himself once Barb passes away.

In June 2017, Chris began to take his Patreon account more seriously and recommenced drawing Sonichu comic pages. He has gotten several hundred dollars per month for his efforts. As a result, the begging has subsided.

Background

A wordcloud of the videos and Facebook posts Chris made during the Financhu Crisis. Note how big "money" and "donations" are...

To this day, the Chandlers' financial woes are caused by their own irresponsible behaviors. Chris, learning absolutely nothing over the years, has squandered any available money on children's toys, video games, fast food and sex toys. Barb, on the other hand, has simply been ignoring long-term debts and letting them pile up to alarming amounts, armed only with vain hopes that her manbaby would raise money for her bills.

Chris has made some efforts to generate income for the household over the past few years (bar that of actually finding a job), which included opening an Etsy shop in 2015. However, any profits gained would immediately go straight to toy purchases, an irresponsible move that would to turn out to be a recurring problem that keeps the Chandlers in the red. The shop would eventually shut down from Chris lazily not fulfilling Etsy orders, but he would still find some revenue by the occasional eBay sales of select merch from the hoard. To further compound the issue, Chris has been instilled with a very real belief that fans are willing to drop large sums of money into his bank account for nothing, an expectation that has since been strengthened by the $1,000 donation by DStecks in September 2015. This belief would take on the form of the many begging videos that highlight the saga to this day.

Barb seems to have outstanding debts that dwarf Chris's financial handiwork. On September 2016, she faced lawsuits from Discover and Capital One for failing to pay the large amounts of her credit card debt, according to Virginia District Court records. It is worth noting that it takes a lot of ignored debt collector calls over a long period of time to get a simple credit card debt escalated to a lawsuit, suggesting that Barb may have been outright ignoring making any payments to her credit cards. Only time will tell if more creditor companies begin to sue Barb for her neglect. In August 2016, Chris revealed that the household is still under a mortgage of $115,000, introducing a far more worrying debt looming over the horizon.

Both Chris and Barb continue to barely stay afloat with their lives thanks to their own tugboats, but their inactive lifestyle and reckless spending will not last forever at this rate.

Despite it all, Chris has not once attempted to find a job. In April 2017, with the household finances near the breaking point, one of Chris's IRL friends informed him of DARS, a service designed to help people with disabilities enter the workforce. Chris reacted with a temper tantrum, posting a multi-paragraph rant on not wanting to work.

Outstanding debts

This table summarizes various unpaid debts charged to credit cards and other owed amounts between Chris and Barb. Keep in mind that these are only amounts found by Christorians via Chris' online posts and Virginia District Court public records.

On 30 November 2016, Chris started a Patreon with a goal of $250,000; he estimates $200,000 to pay off the mortgage and other debts, plus an extra $50,000 for himself, just because.

Ongoing	Credit card debt	6,000.00
24 September 2014	Loan for Son-Chu	9,000.00
1 March 2016	PS4 purchase (via Fingerhut.com)	540.00

Chris's frivolous spending during the crisis

A recurring theme throughout the Crisis.

Like any terminally irresponsible adult, Chris likes to keep his bedroom filled with toys, while keeping his wallet empty. Below is an list of the known expenses Chris has made during the Financhu Crisis, collected from online postings and eBay purchase history. Some amounts are estimated, but all amounts are debilitating.

During 2016, Chris was known to waste over $2,500 on toys.

In late 2017, Chris spent a considerable amount of money to attend Bronycon. 3-day pass tickets were around $60, but money spent on travel, food, souvenirs, and lodging is rounded to $2,000-3,000 by other attendees.

Item	Amount ($)
New PS4 console	540.00
About 30 game purchases for the PS4	600.00
$350 Ghostbusters lego set, bought on eBay for higher	425.88

Why Chris refuses to work

Despite actively begging for money for over a year and a half, Chris did not attempt to get a job. One of his IRL friends, a woman from his Pokemon club named Alexa P., became concerned after seeing Chris repeatedly beg on Facebook. She suggested, in November 2016, and again in April 2017, that he contact one of her family members who works at Virginia DARS, a government service that helps disabled individuals find work. At the first suggestion, Chris didn't follow through, and at the second, he fired off a rant about why he was unwilling to get a job, and Alexa then gave up trying to help him.

In his rant, Chris gave the following flimsy excuses:

• Busy with helping Barb and the pets.

• Trolls ruined his "background check"/reputation.

• Risk of being discriminated against for his Tomgirl gender.

• Stress

• Fear of being incompetent.

Months later, in October 2017, Chris reiterated his excuse of helping Barb and the pets, and added another:

• His passion for, and psychic connection to, his imaginary friends in CWCville.

None of his claimed reasons hold any weight.

Despite his professed concern for Barb and the pets being his top priority, he had no qualms about going on a three-day trip to another state without bringing them along in August 2017.

A "background check," as explained by Jackie and Kim Wilson many times, only applies to legal records, and Chris's misdemeanors would not prevent him from getting a job. Furthermore, Chris's legal name during the Financhu Crisis was Christine Chandler, and since most of his history being trolled is tied to his former Christian Chandler name, Google results for his current name greatly de-emphasize the trolls' influence. In addition, fellow lolcows like William Elliott Waterman and Kenneth Englehardt also have their names linked to their internet shenanigans, yet they have gained employment.

Discrimination on the basis of gender is illegal. Charlottesville is a fairly liberal city, so his trans identity should not be an issue.

Getting a job would have reduced his stress over needing to beg in order to afford more toys.

His excuses on being fearful of making mistakes and his obsession over his imaginary friends are blocks set down by his own mind - revealing that, rather than growing up and assuming responsibility for his future, he would rather remain a manchild forever.

• 18th - Chris begs to Cole for the second time this month.

  He lists six Sonichu drawings, from 2014, at $2,000 for the lot.
  Then, he digs through 10 to 20 bags of wet, moldy clothes, left over from the Destruction Of Chris's House three years before, and finds The Classic shirt. He lists it on eBay for $12,000 (or a Buy It Now price of $20,000).

May '17

What Cole would have seen if he had clicked on the Paypal.me link Chris tweeted to him while begging this month.

What Cole would have really paid.

• 5th - On eBay, Chris halves the prices on two listings: his stamp album (again), to $250; and a collection of Sonichu drawings from 2014, to $1,000. He begs people to buy on Facebook.
• 5th - In a display of hypocrisy, Chris mocks Cole Smithey on Twitter for requesting donations on Patreon.
• 5th - Chris claims his bank account is in the red for the second time in a week due to the auto-pay for one of his bills, echoing the exact problem Barb claimed in the previous month. Chris's Monthly Tugboat had deposited $1,300 to him two days beforehand.
  He also realizes that The Classic bidder won't be paying for it.
• 8th - Over the course of a week, Chris had spent $90 on six new PS4 games, even though he had said his bank account was in the red. PSN allows Paypal for purchases, so Chris was either lying or being financially irresponsible by using his Paypal to fund the purchases instead of transferring the money to his bank.
• 8th - After 561 days since the last update to the Sonichu comic, which he had been paid over $1,000 to do, Chris resumes work on it. He requests donations and pledges to his Patreon for his effort. A day later, he had gotten zero new pledges.

• 14th - Another livestream of Chris drawing Sonichu comic pages is recorded, clocking in at 1 hour and 38 minutes of footage. Chris begs for $10 donations or pledges to Patreon in the video description.
• 15th - Chris records himself using Photoshop for an hour and a half. He begs for his audience to "PLEASE DONATE BIG NOW!" It should be noted that he filmed himself surrounded by expensive electronics, such as the PS4 camera and laptop (possibly a newly-acquired one, as it had not been mentioned by Chris before).
• 16th - Chris tries to beg from Cole again, still asking for $1,000.
• 17th - The Chandlers pay the first half of the 2017 property tax for 14 Branchland Court, costing them $606.83.
• 19th - After announcing that Sonichu 11 pages will be ready in a few days, Chris begs for handouts. Later that day, he discovers that his cat, Sorbet, had been seriously injured and takes him to a vet.
• 24th - Chris begs for handouts on video, claiming to need money for food and mentioning that he was charged $160 for Sorbet's vet bill. He demands for donations to be at least a dollar and suggests a $10 minimum. An hour later, he uploads another video, angered at having received a donation of less than a dollar. In the second video, Barb appears and joins in the begging, requesting money for meal replacement shakes.
• 25th - Chris links to the first of the previous day's videos on Facebook and begs again. He also deletes the second video.

June '17

• 16th - Barb begs for food money, while wearing both a $400 gold necklace and a pearl necklace. Shortly after, Chris posts an in-progress Sonichu page to Patreon and begs on that platform for grocery money.

July '17

Verdict on Mariner Finance case

• 27th - Searching through the hoard for more junk to sell, Chris finds a package of 25 bootleg Pokemon LeafGreen/Emerald games from a concerned fan who mailed them to him years ago, and puts them up on eBay, saying he wants sales "To help my mother and I some more, please. Thank you. :)" He makes $80 in sales that day, then promptly spends $35 of it on two My Little Pony Funko dolls. Also, Chris sends one buyer an empty envelope and receives negative feedback [2]

March '18

• 31st - Chris spends $300 to get ancestry DNA reports for him, his mom, and his deceased father.
