The Xokas broke down the money he pays in YouTube taxes in Spain. “I pay 70% taxes on YouTube. Then I ask myself, how can a person not go to Andorra? That is the question, how foolish am I to stay?
“I from YouTube must earn around 15% or 20% net. It’s crazy,” he insisted. “As from Twitch they also begin to take away 70%, Let’s see who stays in Spain. That is a good question, because of course, we are all very patriotic and we all love our country very much until we become assholes “he sentenced.
