Tyler "Trainwreck" Niknam apparently has a lot of money to blow.
In a recent stream, Trainwreck gave fellow content creator Jake "JakeNBake" Abramson $120,000 so he could get a new car. JakeNBake has been talking about a Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 SR for the past few months and Trainwreck decided to ensure that he could finally get his dream car.
On April 30, JakeNBake was hosting a live stream while he competed in a Counter-Strike: Global Offensive tournament. While dominating the competition, JakeNBake told his followers that he was currently on a mission to get $350,000 to buy the Porsche. Four hours later, Trainwreck decided to make a massive donation to the cause through Coinbase and Cash App.
"Holy f—! What do you mean!?" JakeNBake exclaimed.
"Enjoy, brother. Buy the car. You deserve it," Train responded casually. "Post it on Twitter. All these motherf—s post their shit. F— those motherf—s. I want to see you posting your goddamn Porsche."
JakeNBake's response was genuine shock. He even had to leave the room due to an overflow of emotion.
While the gesture was seen as authentic and wholesome, it also brought about a discussion on Reddit regarding how much Train must make if he can "toss away" $120K. With all of the Twitch leaks, however, it's no secret that he makes millions a month. Train's money comes from donations, subscriptions, and gambling. In February, 2022, Trainwrecks told his fans that he makes over $1 million a month from his deal with gambling site Stake.
The incredible money streamers pull in has often been a heated topic, especially when gambling is involved. Felix "xQc" Lengyel has often been under fire for promoting gambling sites, although he recently ranted that he's rich enough to have an addiction to gambling.
Meanwhile, JakeNBake's dreams have come true. He tweeted about the car on Twitter just as Trainwrecks requested, saying that he's gone to the dealer since.
Trainwrecks responded that JakeNBake "deserved it." Other streamers chimed in about the gift, in awe of Train for his selfless donation and the wholesome story. Many called him "underrated" and tweeted that Trainwrecks does a lot more for the community than people realize.
