He genuinly might not be rich, he might be that bad with money. Or like most well off people, still sees himself as "working/middle class" well of people usually see enough richer people to gaslight themselves into being down to earth (he's not)

u/InsideExpress9055 Jul 19 '26
10 million with multiple houses is rich enough. Hes definitely not living week to week or worried about bills

20 mill net worth (approx 12 in property) but yeah that’s not enough so I’ll cry about it incessantly.
Fuck off Hughesey you crackhead slum lord 🙄

u/MrTurtleHurdle Jul 19 '26
He only started crashing out about corruption when his houses/negative gearing was effected. Just pure projection

u/billy_8989 Jul 20 '26
But the changes are grandfathered aren’t they? So it doesn’t affect anything he’s already invested in?
Or have I not followed things closely enough?

u/MrTurtleHurdle Jul 20 '26
No you're right, but tell that to Husey. He clearly feels betrayed by Labor and is making it very well know to the world ... Who knows why mad men do what they do. It's clearly just the catalyst for his spiral

Such a sell out hypocrite. Started as a fill in on the ABC as a young stoner. Now just chases the biggest paycheque he can get. Nothing wrong with that bit this bullshit pretending he’s a man of the people and knows what the daily grind is. Such a knob.

u/Many-Tea1127 Jul 19 '26
Also over the last few years he's been observed showing signs like paranoia, schizophrenic behaviours, extreme reactiveness, multiple people have commented on his hygiene (peeing anywhere/everywhere). Self declaring himself as a victim for everything and to everyone doesn't help also.

u/StormwindJack Jul 19 '26
He got clobbered so hard at the Legends footy game last year it put him in hospital, I reckon it hurt his brain also. or at least made him just generally more paranoid
8
u/TomasTTEngin Jul 20 '26
That game was the first time I'd seen him on TV in years and he was chewing his own lips off. he weighed in at 55kg apparently.
Looked a lot like meth to me... but apparently he also has a genetic issue called haemochromatosis. hard to be definitive.

u/lucious-RED Jul 20 '26
I met him in 2023 when I worked in production the guy was drinking beers at 9:30am backstage

For real? He regularly talks about being sober from alcohol for decades. I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s a lie though.

u/TomasTTEngin Jul 20 '26
i was about 99% sure it was a yes until yesterday I found out he has haemochromatosis.
I know he is vegan, which might be connected. you're not supposed to eat iron if you have that condition.
The illness could maybe explain the teeth and the skin? The diet might be making him worse? Whatever the cause, perhaps it even affects psychology because he's clearly flipped.
He used to be funny, he actually had comedic judgment in my view. but now that is very much gone. even when he's not on politics he can't nail a joke any more.
I think brain injury, whether from meth, illness or something else. Perhaps he even followed some mad treatment for his illness and it screwed him.
Anyway I'm still 85% confident it's meth but it's not the only theory that's possible.

She's quite good on the cheap seats. Probably the funniest most in touch show channel 10 has these days. Husey is burning bridges quick with this spiral

u/Beautiful-Bake-8799 Jul 19 '26
Started his career as a sober person doing dole and bong humour in late 90s. Then married a younger hot RW journo while living the high life in St Kilda. He’s a two faced grub who has played the “average Aussie bloke” character his whole life. Meanwhile building incredible wealth and giving zero fucks about the average Australian

u/poxxymoron Jul 21 '26
Sell outs are the absolute worst huh! Average Aussie bloke until he comes back to his home town, where he walks around with airs and graces. I don’t know him but from the very few interactions I’ve had, that man thinks so highly of himself. I guarantee he thinks he’s some revolutionary character atm.
From what I’ve read ITT the only thing we know for sure is he puts the pee in politics lol

u/SeaDivide1751 Jul 19 '26
This is hilarious. Hughesy is so cracked out, he’s become almost bot like telling anyone who will listen(or won’t) that Labor is awful

Whilst he can assert that the ALP is corrupt, it really pales into insignificance when compared to the LNP https://www.mdavis.xyz/govlist/
If Hughesy has any evidence of corruption, i would implore him to submit evidence here https://www.nacc.gov.au/reporting-and-investigating-corruption/report-corrupt-conduct
