Actually, you're wrong. When he was doing Babysitter he quit his job to work on the game. Because he was making so much money, he had to create a business because of tax implications. At that time, he was making over 11k a month. Of course, the situation with his wife happened so I have no idea if he went back to regular work after that. But he actually did quit his job for a time. As for him being a lawyer, depends on what country he's from since he's stated quite a few times to me that English is not his native language. I have no idea where he's from. Keep in mind, everything I'm stating is from what he told me as well as what he said on his discord in the past......It is getting a little obvious that maybe we should be questioning what he says since he has become unreliable. With the situation with his wife, I have no idea if he went back to a regular job or not.
You are right with the volatility of games. It can be very up and down and just not happen at all. With him, remember, he doesn't write his games. He gets others. For Babysitter, he had BurtReynoldsMustache who left that game and went onto City of Broken Dreamers. I have no idea if there was a rift between the two or what, I just know T4bbo was blaming him for late scripts and that's why he couldn't hit some deadlines at that time. Whether that was true or not or if something happened behind the scenes and Burt went 'screw it, I'm out'....I have no idea. Whatever happened I think they mended some fences because I know he had Burt going over the script of the new writer toward the end of Babysitter and Babysitters(I particularly was not a fan of the new writer).
