Happy Sunday Tattlers!!!
Stephanie Jarvis has achieved an all time low, per patreon $s, as of July 31, 2022.
Down 14.5% from when she established this free piggy bank, March 2020.
It is still too much but as the world economy continues to struggle her numbers will tank as well.
I have no problem with her making a living from sad YT content and sponsors. (Why any business would choose her??? Well, that's another story.)
However, the grifting needs to end.

I agree. Fair play with YT CD and sponsors, just seems very strange to me that there haven't been any forthcoming before now, especially in connection with the heating/facade or, even just the heavy duty equipment???
GAG has always been diabolically off putting imo. Plus, no-one is absolutely 100% certain whether the cheques that SJ "allegedly" pledges have actually been received by the listed recipients/charities to date either.
Ordinarily, most charities would send some kind of a thank you letter and explain where the monies will/have been spent, don't they - especially smaller charities? I regularly receive emails etc from charities who I have donated to and used the Gift Aid element, informing me of what was raised.
Can't believe that SJ would miss such a "golden" opportunity to blow her trumpet even louder.
Only remember seeing 3/4 vlogs in that connection, art project in Suffolk that Scotsman visited and the remainder in SA - of all places!
Maybe the backlog of the GAG is dwindling. Could be why they are shorter in order to make everything last longer.
From what little I understand about YT revenue, outwith advertising breaks income etc, the GAG raises approx £3K pm just from views, which is roughly £1K less than what SJ states she has been donating during the past 6 months taking into consideration minus taxes paid on the gifts and PJ's "alleged" income for filming/editing - fact that SJ confirmed herself a year or so ago.
As a Belgian national, is it possible for PJ to be easily employed in France without having to jump through some French Gov hoops? I have absolutely no idea as have never needed to know!
However, in the very early days of GAG, they were far longer and received, on many occasions, twice as many views (higher revenue methinks), compared to present day stats but the donations back then were far, far less. Interestingly, rather a huge discrepancy in donated amounts compared to their revenue, between then and now!
I think this is certainly an area where Stephanie Jarvis, via repeated comments/pressure from TL, has become far more transparent, thankfully!
Just need for it to be the same scenario in connection with her Patreon account BUT, hopefully, the French Tax Man will bring that to a head before too much longer!
Apologies for the long ramble, but I sincerely hope that all the above makes sense.
