They wrote:

"That's why, for your early birthday gift, I give you $10,000 USD. You're going to take us on a cruise ship of your choice of two options. Chinese Yangtze River or 14 days around NZ."

The viewer donated once again, telling Jinnytty to give them a "call off-stream." They added:

"I give you the cash so that you have the freedom to choose the journey and time you wish to travel. Give me a call off-stream sometime, if you want to see my deep blue ocean eyes. You know how to find me. Just start with a DM."

The content creator's clip was the top post on the r/LivestreamFail subreddit, with Redditor u/Main-Calligrapher982 commenting:

Meanwhile, Redditor u/Dantesdominion remarked that they would be uncomfortable after receiving a large sum of money from a stranger. They added:

"I would never feel comfortable with people giving me that much money. That's the kind of s**t where they definitely have gone off the deep end and are expecting things in return. F**k that s**t. Save your money and do something better with it for your own sake."
