American gaming content creator and YouTuber IShowSpeed recently visited Malaysia and stopped at a burger stall in KL before his trip ended.
He loved it and even paid extra for the burger, but no one knew how much the vendor received until today. In a viral TikTok post by @syokgeng, the burger vendor revealed that IShowSpeed didn’t pay him in USD, as many may have thought.
And no, he didn’t pay the burger vendor in Malaysian Ringgit, too.
“He actually paid me in Cambodian money (Riel),” the vendor told the interviewer.
So, how much did IShowSpeed pay the vendor?
The vendor revealed that he received 7 banknotes from the American YouTuber, each worth 50,000 KHR. If you do the simple math, the vendor was paid 350,000 KHR, approximately RM362.
It’s not as much as in USD, but the vendor made a lot more that night for the price of one special beef Ramly burger.
When asked about Speed’s appearance at his stall, the vendor admitted that he was shocked and jokingly told Malaysians that his burgers are still sold in Malaysian Ringgit, not other currencies.
The interviewer then surprised the burger vendor with a gift.
