Asmongold sparks debate after revealing he turned down gambling sponsorship offers worth over $20 million.
Popular streamer Asmongold has sparked debate after revealing that he turned down gambling sponsorship offers worth more than $20 million because he dislikes gambling and believes he already has enough money. His comments came during an October 13, 2026, livestream (at timestamp 1:00:36) while discussing the backlash surrounding fellow streamer Nadeshot’s gambling sponsorships. While some viewers praised Asmongold for refusing the money, others questioned his decision and accused him of acting morally superior.
@SBPBankai criticized his decision, writing:
“what i hate the most is the fake humble moral superiority of ‘turning down $20 million’.”
@Dirk_mp4 raised the question as to why Asmongold would refuse such a substantial offer, saying:
“20M and retired lmao.”
@MessiGoat7151 commented:
“This guy spends 20K a year whats he gonna to with 20M”
@SirChovy pointed to Asmongold’s spending on gacha games, writing:
“Doesn’t like to gamble proceeds to pour money in gacha games like a savage.”
However, other users defended Asmongold’s decision and argued that turning down the sponsorship was the right choice.

“Good for him man. Don’t spread that sh*t around. Gambling ruins lives.”
@OrdinalPrince added:
“I mean as he said he already is rich enough and doing such a deal would prob invite gambling addiction into his life, who’s to say he doesn’t get hooked and goes on a downward spiral. Not to mention he could be causing his viewers to potentially do the same.”

During his October 13 livestream, Asmongold discussed a clip of Matthew Haag, better known as Nadeshot, defending his decision to accept gambling sponsorships. Nadeshot had argued that he had a family to support and wanted to earn enough money to provide financial security for them.
Reacting to the discussion, Asmongold revealed that he had received offers worth more than $20 million for gambling sponsorships, particularly during 2021 and 2022, when gambling companies were offering creators substantial sums to promote their platforms.
Asmongold explained that he rejected the offers because he did not like gambling and did not want to promote it. When a viewer suggested that refusing such a lucrative opportunity was foolish, he questioned why he should do something he did not want to do when he was already financially comfortable.
The streamer also discussed the business model behind gambling sponsorships, arguing that companies expect to earn more from the customers attracted by creators than they pay those creators to advertise their platforms. His comments reignited the debate over whether streamers should accept gambling deals, particularly when their audiences may include younger or financially vulnerable viewers.
