Eventually Tim and Alexis broke up, but that wasn't the end of their relationship. While Tim spent his after-school hours playing "World of Warcraft" with friends, Alexis was working - and buying Taco Bell for Tim. They dated for a bit, and back then, Alexis essentially took care of Tim (his words). With all that in mind, one cannot underplay the importance of all Tim and Alexis went through to get to that moment. Tim and Alexis are proud parents, and their son has gone on to appear in numerous streams, stealing the show whenever he's on screen. He knew working that job and also streaming would burn the candle at both ends, so he weighed the risks (i.e., which one would help him pay off student loans faster), and in March of 2014, he quit his job to pursue his dream of playing video games in front of a live, virtual audience.īut in August 2016, Timothy "TimTheTatman" Batar married his girlfriend Alexis, and on August 11, 2019, she gave birth to their son, Brewer. The last job Tim had before becoming a fulltime streamer was as a shift supervisor at a halfway home. It was, in his own words, "toxic" and "soul-draining," and to make matters worse, he was on the 4 a.m. Case in point: He used to work in a warehouse, unboxing products just so other workers could repackage them. Not all of TimtheTatman's jobs were fun, let alone tolerable. Definitely unorthodox - and he doesn't think he was even paid for his time. If they refused, they passed, and if they didn't, the woman wrote them up. When he was 16, a lady drove him around to gas stations to test attendants and see if they would sell him cigarettes. Tim once applied for a job at Taco Bell but was told he wasn't qualified, but arguably one of Tim's stranger jobs might not have been a job at all. Like many children, he had a paper route unlike many children, though, he got the job because a stranger drove up to him and asked if he wanted it. One could say that TimtheTatman was the king of odd jobs. After all, one man's trash is another man's treasure. As for his chair, TimTheTatman fished it out of a dumpster because he couldn't afford one just yet.

He had an Xbox 360, a $100 TV, two computers - one custom $800 PC for streaming and a laptop for reading chat - and the pièce de résistance: a webcam duct-taped to the wall.
Of course, there's more to streaming than just the choice of games you need a setup, and when TimTheTatman started, his was the definition of low budget. He also streamed games like "World of Warcraft" and "Fall Guys," too. But for TimTheTatman, "Fortnite" was arguably the game that made him the lucrative streamer he is today. Then "Overwatch" came and gave him around 18,000 viewers on average.
TimTheTatman started playing video games when he was only five years old, thanks to a generous donation from his father consisting of a Super Nintendo and a copy of "The Hunt for Red October." Tim began with side-scrolling submarine shooters, but he eventually graduated to streaming "Counter-Strike: Global Offensive" and "Call of Duty: Black Ops 2," playing about 4-5 hours a day and only achieving 10,000 concurrent viewers max.
