The '''Financhu Crisis''' is a term coined by users from [[CWCki Forums|Kiwi Farms]] to describe the steep decline in the Chandler family's [[Chris and money|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 <span class="plainlinks">[https://sonichu.com/cwcki/YouTube YouTube] and <span class="plainlinks">[https://sonichu.com/cwcki/Facebook Facebook].

Signs of the Chandlers' worsening finances were made apparent by the increasing amounts of begging videos and donation requests on <span class="plainlinks">[https://sonichu.com/cwcki/YouTube YouTube] and <span class="plainlinks">[https://sonichu.com/cwcki/Facebook Facebook].


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, and continues to get as much to this day. As a result, begging had temporarily subsided. In mid-2018, however, begging resumed, for the stated purposes of avoiding foreclosure on [[14 Branchland Court]] and buying enough food for his family. Meanwhile, Chris has been and continues to be [[Chris and the law|sued]] for debts by several collecting agencies. Given that [[Barbara Chandler|Barb]] is elderly on a [[tugboat|fixed income]], and Chris is ''[[Chris and stress|lazy]]'' on a fixed income, one can only bleakly speculate what will happen when Chris is eventually left to fend for himself once Barb passes away.

In mid-2018, however, begging resumed, for the stated purposes of avoiding foreclosure on [[14 Branchland Court]] and buying enough food for his family.  


As of [[2019]], Chris has mostly turned a blind eye to the Financhu Crisis because of the [[Dimensional Merge]]. Believing that he has vast wealth stored away in [[CWCville]] that should soon become available to him, his begging has again become relatively infrequent.
Chris [[Debt hearing (eyewitness account)|stopped caring]] about the Financhu Crisis by 2019, because of the [[Dimensional Merge]] and the generous backing from [[Aly Hirschberg]] and other [[financial enablers]]. Chris continues to beg, but only for [[conventions]], toys and video games. Chris now also believes that he has vast wealth in <s>[[CWCville]]</s> [[C-197|Dimension C-197]] to pay off the creditors, but creditors do not buy into fictional worlds, and have managed to [[Debt#Court cases|sue him]] for at least $7,927.23 (as on 29 February 2020).
 
Given that [[Barbara Chandler|Barb]] is elderly on a [[tugboat|fixed income]], and Chris is ''[[Chris and stress|lazy]]'' on a fixed income, it is unsurprising that many followers worry that the death of Barb [[#Future|could lead]] to the so-called "Homeless Saga" — a wet dream for [[A-Logging|A-Loggers]] and [[weens]], but devastating for both Chris and many of his followers.<ref name="guardsman"/><ref name="anominous"/>

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, [[Chris and negotiation|just ''because'']].

Despite actively begging for money since 2016, Chris has not attempted to get a job (then again, the [[Cutco|last job he's had]] dates all the way back to [[2003]]). One of his IRL friends, a woman from his Pokémon club named Alexa P., became concerned after seeing Chris repeatedly beg on Facebook. She suggested, in November 2016,<ref>[[November 2016 Facebook posts#Barb pawns jewelry, Chris decides to join Patreon]]</ref> and again in April 2017,<ref name=getajob/> 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.

Chris's only valid point is regarding people who are so intent on trying to troll that they'll contact a business just to harass management about him with made-up stories – as happened when he patronized [[The End Games]] and [[Anytime Fitness]].

*27th - Chris claims in a [[Something Completely Different - A few Transformers Jokes, also anti-Pmurt|video]] that the "fickle finances" are improving for him and Barb, shortly before playing with his newly-bought Transformers toys, showing that he is unaware or does not care about the fact that his mother legally owes over $20,000 as a result of the two lawsuits filed against her in 2016 or that the property tax for their house will be due in two months.
 
===October '16===

*22nd - Chris reacts to a penny donated by a troll,<ref>https://kiwifarms.net/threads/yt-11-21-help-please.25958/page-6#post-1893900</ref> [[Twitter#We need more than a penny|tweeting]], "We need Donations larger than a penny apiece. Please try to give us $10 or a Lot more than that".
*30th - Chris [[November 2016 Facebook posts#Barb pawns jewelry, Chris decides to join Patreon|posts]] that he will join [[Patreon]], after Barb had to pawn a necklace, which she had to sell at a significant loss for $325, to pay debts/bills.

He does not pawn this, or any of his other toys, to help Barb; instead, he makes [[The Alpha Trion/"Young Warrior" Challenge|a video of himself playing with it]].
*30th - Chris launches his [[Patreon]] account. He states that he wants $200,000 to pay the "home's finances, including the Mortgage and Credit Cards". He also says he wants an extra $50,000 for "[[List of toys|rainy day(s)]]".
 
===December '16===
*1st - Chris updates his [[Patreon]] with more gifts, consisting of merchandise from Skylanders [[Chris and his Ego#Fixation on self-image|customized to appear like his in-game avatar]] (which would be produced by that company) and clarifies that he wants $250,000 total, rather than per month, showing that he still has unrealistic views on how much he can scam out of people.
*2nd - Chris uploads [[Alpha Trion/"Young" warrior challenge explained]], in which he plugs his Patreon channel while playing with expensive Transformers toys.
*19th - Barb wants to sell a [[Craigslist#Riding lawn tractor|riding lawn tractor]] for $595.
 
==2017 Timeline==
===January '17===
*4th - Chris [[January 2017 Facebook Posts#Inability to feel like drawing and writing the stories|whines]] about having "head of household worries", like the bills and debt; however, instead of Adulting and applying for a job, he begs to have $500 a month.
*13th - Over three weeks after the original lawn tractor ad was taken down from [[Craigslist]] due to a ween, Chris finally realized what happened and re-posted it, still asking for $595. In the meantime, he had bought over $100 worth of [[Z-Ring Fun Extra|Pokémon]] and [[Skylanders Imaginators Leader Christine W Chandler: random Review N' Stuff|Skylanders]] toys and had made videos of himself playing with them.
 
===February '17===
*16th - Chris uploads [[A browsing around an ol' playground]], in which he begs for money before showing footage of himself walking around a playground.
*17th - One day after begging for handouts of $10 per person, Chris plays a newly-purchased video game level for ''Lego Dimensions'', ''The Lego Batman Movie Story Pack'', which had been released on 10 February with a cost between $35-$50.<ref>https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/3900-lego-dimensions/Sonichu</ref>


===March '17===
* Chris has habitually neglected his customers. He has repeatedly failed to ship orders to his buyers on time, and will ignore messages from customers asking about their purchases, or give a myriad of excuses as to why they haven't shipped. If he does get around to shipping them, his [[naive]] methods of "packaging" often cause items to arrive damaged. Other times, he simply won't ship items at all (as seen perfectly with his [[Patreon]]).
*1st - Chris offers parts of [[March 2017 Facebook Posts#Selling Bob's stamp collection|Bob's stamp collection]] for sale.
* If Chris is angry enough, he can use your information against you. This was infamously seen when [[Mr. Smith]] attempted to purchase a medallion from Chris and, after Chris failed to make and ship one, filed a claim against him on [[eBay]], causing Chris's PayPal to be locked. Chris responded by furiously ''doxing'' Mr. Smith and another buyer on [[Facebook]], both of whom eventually received [[prank calls]] from [[weens]]. The information that PayPal releases to eBay sellers includes your full name, home address, e-mail address, eBay username, and (possibly) phone number. In other words, "the exact kind of information you wouldn't want a screeching manchild to post in a public place when it's followed by hundreds of cannibalistic Internet trolls."<ref>[https://kiwifarms.net/threads/important-dont-buy-from-chris.5048/]</ref>
*2nd - Chris spends $50.25 on toys after making $68 (minus the cost of shipping) from selling his father's stamps.<ref name=ebay/>
* Chris will piss away your money. As stated above, Chris and Barb have had a long history of irresponsible spending habits, which is the biggest reason why they've fallen into debt. Even if he does manage to ship something to you without any sort of hassle, chances are extremely high that Chris will immediately blow your money on Legos, toys, video games, and other stuff, and then immediately go back to begging.
*3rd - Chris lists his [[eBay#Chris's stamp album|personal stamp album]] for $1,000.
*7th - Chris buys Lego World for the PS4 on its release date<ref>https://psnprofiles.com/trophies/5906-lego-worlds/Sonichu</ref> for $30, erasing the last of the profit he had made from selling stamps, even though he had claimed to need the money for paying bills.
*13th - He spends another $9 on Transformers.<ref name=ebay/>
*19th - Chris [[March 2017 Facebook Posts#Please buy stamps|begs on Facebook]] for people to buy more stamps, saying "[[Lie|My mother and I can Really do with the money]]".

*8th - Over the course of a week, Chris had spent $90 on [[List of Chris's video games#Games bought during the Financhu Crisis|six new PS4 games]], even though he had said his bank account was in the red.

In the second video, Barb appears and joins in the begging, requesting money for meal replacement shakes.
*25th - Chris [[May 2017 Facebook posts#More begging|links to the first of the previous day's videos on Facebook]] and begs again. He also deletes the second video.

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,[1] after his friends on Facebook refused to entertain his nonsense excuses for not having a job
truly Bad Intentions of spamming actual hate speech (Get A Job).
Chris[2]
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.

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, and continues to get as much to this day. As a result, begging had temporarily subsided. In mid-2018, however, begging resumed, for the stated purposes of avoiding foreclosure on 14 Branchland Court and buying enough food for his family.

Chris stopped caring about the Financhu Crisis by 2019, because of the Dimensional Merge and the generous backing from Aly Hirschberg and other financial enablers. Chris continues to beg, but only for conventions, toys and video games. Chris now also believes that he has vast wealth in CWCville Dimension C-197 to pay off the creditors, but creditors do not buy into fictional worlds, and have managed to sue him for at least $7,927.23 (as on 29 February 2020).

Given that Barb is elderly on a fixed income, and Chris is lazy on a fixed income, it is unsurprising that many followers worry that the death of Barb could lead to the so-called "Homeless Saga" — a wet dream for A-Loggers and weens, but devastating for both Chris and many of his followers.[3][4]

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.

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 a 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.

Below is a list of known frivolous purchases made during the Crisis. There are doubtless many more that are not known about, including cash purchases.

Why Chris refuses to work

“You Want Money, GET A JOB”?

Our Response is that WE ARE ALREADY EMPLOYED BY YOUR BOSS’S BOSS’S BOSS due to our better and special powerful abilities. ⚡️💙⚡️

Therefore, for all of you Haterade-Chugging “GET A JOB!” spouters out there, I suggest you Shut Up and enjoy your ability to settle in a cozy Office or wherever. For the rest of us, the worlds and the dimensions are our Offices, and we are doing our best, so we can reach our respective Fated Destined Promotions. But, I Digress.

I am Employed by Emanuelle, this world’s GOD; Scarlet, the Original CPU Blue Heart of the Commodore Consoles; the Chaotic Rainbow that sent me to be born in this 1218 to find my guided paths.

Chris, clinging to his fantasies about the Dimensional Merge to justify why he's unemployed in the real world.[18]

Despite actively begging for money since 2016, Chris has not attempted to get a job (then again, the last job he's had dates all the way back to 2003). One of his IRL friends, a woman from his Pokémon club named Alexa P., became concerned after seeing Chris repeatedly beg on Facebook. She suggested, in November 2016,[19] and again in April 2017,[1] 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:

  • He was busy with helping Barb and the pets (though he had no qualms towards going on a three-day trip to another state without bringing them along in August 2017).
  • Trolls ruined his "background check"/reputation. While it is true that a Google search on Chris reveals unsavory details, they are only records of facts, and there are agencies that find work for slow-in-the-mind adults that would not care about minor crimes or indiscretions.
  • Finding a job runs the risk of being discriminated against for his tomgirl gender.
  • Stress.
  • He fears being incompetent.

Months later, in October 2017, Chris reiterated his excuse of helping Barb and the pets, and added another:[20]

In May 2018, despite being in desperate need of money after losing $6,000 and risking losing his home at 14 Branchland Court, Chris was still unwilling to work and served up another excuse:[21]

  • He fears trolls will harass him at work.

In June 2019, he added yet another excuse, his most pathetic yet:

Most of his claimed reasons hold no weight. 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. Fellow lolcows like William Elliott Waterman and Kenneth Englehardt also have their names linked to their internet shenanigans, yet they have gained employment. Also, discrimination on the basis of gender is illegal; Charlottesville is a fairly liberal city, so his trans identity should not be an issue. All in all, getting a job would probably reduce 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.

Chris's only valid point is regarding people who are so intent on trying to troll that they'll contact a business just to harass management about him with made-up stories – as happened when he patronized The End Games and Anytime Fitness.

Why you shouldn't donate to Chris

Buying things from Chris and/or donating to him is not at all recommended, mainly because:

  • Chris has habitually neglected his customers. He has repeatedly failed to ship orders to his buyers on time, and will ignore messages from customers asking about their purchases, or give a myriad of excuses as to why they haven't shipped. If he does get around to shipping them, his naive methods of "packaging" often cause items to arrive damaged. Other times, he simply won't ship items at all (as seen perfectly with his Patreon).
  • If Chris is angry enough, he can use your information against you. This was infamously seen when Mr. Smith attempted to purchase a medallion from Chris and, after Chris failed to make and ship one, filed a claim against him on eBay, causing Chris's PayPal to be locked. Chris responded by furiously doxing Mr. Smith and another buyer on Facebook, both of whom eventually received prank calls from weens. The information that PayPal releases to eBay sellers includes your full name, home address, e-mail address, eBay username, and (possibly) phone number. In other words, "the exact kind of information you wouldn't want a screeching manchild to post in a public place when it's followed by hundreds of cannibalistic Internet trolls."[22]
  • Chris will piss away your money. As stated above, Chris and Barb have had a long history of irresponsible spending habits, which is the biggest reason why they've fallen into debt. Even if he does manage to ship something to you without any sort of hassle, chances are extremely high that Chris will immediately blow your money on Legos, toys, video games, and other stuff, and then immediately go back to begging.

Future

Although Barb currently claims $900 of Chris's tugboat each month to pay the active mortgage on 14 Branchland Court, the seriousness of the Financhu Crisis combined with Chris’s impulse spending have led many followers of Chris to speculate on whether the passing of Barb will lead to the so-called "Homeless Saga".[3][4] Chris’s future revenue, other than the monthly tugboat and fans' support, is likely to be very limited, with some of his followers admitting that Chris will never get any kind of loan or credit.[23] Even if Chris were to reverse his stance and try to get a job, nearly all potential employers would be unwilling to take on someone with little to no skills, and over a decade of real-life and internet notoriety.[24]

Both the state of Virginia and the US federal government have programmes intended to help the disabled secure independent living,[25][26] most famously Section 8 housing; a number of followers have suggested that Chris should sign up for it,[27] though these involve lengthy application processes and possibly several months' wait. On the contrary, a "Homeless Saga" may be a wet dream for A-Loggers and weens, but it would be devastating for both Chris and many of his followers. The 2014 house fire caused a number of followers to doubt whether Chris will be able to cope with sleeping rough with little more than his clothes and medallion, especially after being pampered with toys and video games for many years.[28] Homelessness would also threaten the steady supply of fresh drama that continues to attract new fans and followers from all walks of life and leave them wondering: "What is Chris going to do next?"
