This page lists the 2019 timeline of the Financhu Crisis.
January '19

February '19
Chris sold $164.94 worth of junk on eBay.
April '19
- 2nd - Chris is sued by Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC for an undisclosed amount, with a hearing scheduled on May 15th.
- 4th - Chris shows off six purchased Poké Ball Plus toys in a Twitter post. He had purchased them from GameStop. Chris claimed he bought one brand new (a $50 price) and the other five used "at up to $15 savings difference", which would mean he still spent at least $200 on them.
- 6th - Chris drives 150 miles to Newport News, VA, to visit fan Midnight Moonflower. He loses his wallet while in town.
- 15th - Chris drives to Newport News again to pick up his lost wallet.
- 23rd - Ending his 100+ day-long streak of not begging, Chris records We Need some gas money, Please, Help., saying that he needs $20 to fill up his van with gas.
- 26th - Chris lists rare coins on eBay, begging coin collectors to consider helping him and his mom. It's worth noting that these coins are among the only things of (non-Christorical) value Chris has tried to sell so far, although their value is lowered somewhat by the fact that they haven't been graded by a numismatic authority like NGC or PCGS.
May '19
- 6th - Portfolio Recovery Associates, LLC. files a second lawsuit against Chris for yet another undisclosed amount, with a hearing scheduled on June 19th.[3] This means Chris is now facing two simultaneous lawsuits from the same company.
- 13th - Chris lists a throw blanket on eBay for $200, tweeting: "we need the money here, that’s for sure. Thank you." A ween promptly purchases it the next day.[4]
- 14th - The Chandlers pay their $650 property tax bill.[5]
- 15th - The first court hearing for the April 2019 warrant in debt for money owed to Portfolio Recovery Associates takes place: the case is adjourned to 19 June, when it will be heard in conjunction with the May 2019 warrant in debt.[6]
- 24th - Midland Funding files for garnishment against Chris after he failed to maintain payments on a $2,777.90 judgement from December 2018.
June '19
- 12th - Chris tries to justify being unemployed by claiming he has a God-given job overseeing the Dimensional Merge. He also makes a new post on Patreon, for the first time in over 10 months, saying he was too distracted with the Dimensional Merge to deal with sending out books or producing content.
- 13th - Chris lists another blanket on Ebay for $225.[7]
- 17th - Chris's eBay account is restricted, and his offerings for sale de-listed. He confirms this two days later on Twitter.
- 19th - Portfolio Midland Associates' claim for debts against Chris is heard in court. Chris also encourages his Twitter followers to buy the complete printed Sonichu comic for $170 through PayPal, noting that his balance is negative.
July '19
- 1st - Midland Funding’s claim for garnishment fails, due to a combination of Chris’s impulse spending, and the immunity for his federal social security payments.[8]
