A 41-year-old man has had his parents pay his rent for seven years. He has declined jobs he feels are beneath him.

A 41-year-old man named Brint Davy from Austin, Texas, has faced significant criticism for relying on parents to cover his rent for the past seven years.

Brint is capable of working, but he has refused to take jobs he views as beneath him.

As a result, he has become financially dependent on his family.

Brint was once a journalist but lost his job in 2018.

Since then, he has accumulated a substantial amount of debt, primarily due to gambling and subscriptions to adult websites like OnlyFans.

His financial troubles have left him unable to pay his rent and bills, forcing him to turn to his parents for support.

On a recent episode of a podcast called “Financial Audit,” hosted by Caleb Hammer, Brint opened up about his situation.

He admitted that he feels overwhelmed by debt and has been unable to find work since his firing.

Brint mentioned that he has applied for various jobs but often receives rejections, with some employers suggesting he is overqualified.

However, he expressed that he does not want to take a position he perceives as low-status, such as fast food work.

He explained: “I’m just hustling every day basically because I have been blacklisted from most jobs.

“I have a criminal background. I told Governor Abbott on Twitter that I would eat his heart and that solicited a big reaction.”

The middle-aged man acknowledged that his parents pay approximately $1,500 a month for his rent.

Despite this, he admits is a burden on their resources.

During the podcast, Brint discussed how a past criminal charge led to his blacklisting from numerous jobs.

He had been arrested for making a threatening comment on Twitter, which he claims was taken out of context.

Although he does not believe the incident should define him, he acknowledges that it has affected his reputation and job prospects.

“It sounds way worse than it was because I’m not a cannibal for one — I don’t eat hearts — and the state really wanted to prosecute me.

“They were thinking about making it a felony for a while and they just dragged it all out for a year and it took a long time,” he said.

Despite the circumstances, the middle-aged man seems to lack a sense of urgency about improving his situation.

He added: “My savings are gone. I’m mostly dependent upon my parents. They pay my rent. I know it sucks but they’re really nice.”

While the podcast host advised him to cut unnecessary spending and accept any job available, Brint resisted this advice.

He believes that something better will eventually come along, and he is not ready to settle for a job he finds undesirable.
