Daniel has repeatedly shown through his actions and words that he has no idea how to handle money or manage his own finances. Between his impulse spending, unwillingness to save, and massive sense of entitlement, Daniel demonstrates incompetence in managing finances.
When Nancy Shimer died, she left her money to Daniel in a trust fund managed by Bob Proctor, though we do not know how much money was in Daniel's trust fund. Daniel will sometimes post updates on his finances via an app on his smartphone, but these screenshots are completely unreliable.
Daniel, despite being given this money to spend on housing, medicine, food, and water, often spends it on gambling and tech items he will inevitably destroy. Even when he's penniless, Daniel often uses Dine and Dashing to enjoy copious amounts of food at no cost.
Daniel also spends a significant amount of money on his collection of sex toys to satisfy his fantasies.
Daniel's sources of income
Daniel has had several sources of income throughout his life. These range from the relatively mundane, like Nancy Shimer's trust fund, to the risky, like gambling. His most common method, however, is e-begging, hoping financial enablers pay for whatever he needs or wants.
CashApp
Daniel will frequently post his CashApp on his Youtube and TikTok in an effort to get financial enablers to donate to him, particularly when he needs to pay for food (which he often refuses to do, instead Dine and Dashing.)
Cameo
Main article: Cameo Arc
On May 31st, 2023, Daniel would create a Cameo account, which would allow financial enablers to pay for video messages from Daniel. The videos fluctuated widely in price, at one point increasing in price by over 20x, and showed that Daniel had no concept of "paying for a service" as Daniel would oftentimes not even do or say what the users asked him to while taking their money and spending it. He was banned on August 16th, 2023.
Gambling
Main article: Daniel Larson's Gambling
While it is definitely not a major source of income for Daniel, Daniel has been known to occasionally gamble, and hitting the jackpot occasionally would explain purchases that Daniel otherwise wouldn't be able to afford, such as the headset worn throughout the Headset Arc and the electronics destroyed during the July 2022 Electronic Destruction Spree.
However, information on Daniel's gambling is rather sparse, and according to known details he has lost about $12.79 doing so, so he is highly unlikely to be doing so successfully. He has also been banned from several casinos in Las Vegas, one of which he threatened to set off fireworks in leading to a mental hospitalization.
