However, it does not seem that the controversial streamer lacks funds, as he has gained over $20,000 from fans via tips in October. According toDr Disrespect’s Streamlabs tip page, the streamer received one donation of $5,000 from BuckSteelman, two donations of over $4,000 from Habibi, one of nearly $3,000 from IronMaK, and others. Considering all the tips that appear in the Top Tippers section, he earned more than $20,000 in a single month.
