Amouranth Buys Kum and Go Gas Station for $8 Million

gamerant.com:

Popular Twitch streamers are known for diversifying their portfolios to ensure that they aren't wholly reliant on their videos and livestreams, with merchandise deals being a primary example for some. Other Twitch streamers have gotten even more creative, with Amouranth delving into the gas station business as of 2021 and continuing to buy more stations in the US as gas prices escalate.

Amouranth recently posted a photo of a gas station on her Twitter proclaiming that she invested 25% on a syndicated deal in a new location called Kum and Go. The popular streamer has maintained a strong following on the platform as she transitioned from Twitch hot tub streaming to ASMR and Pokemon card unboxing in diversifying her content before expanding into other businesses with a similar strategy. This gas station joins the likes of her Circle K location which receives over 100,000 cars each day and the 7-Eleven gas station that she invested $10 million into last year.

Like her other gas stations, the Kum and Go station Amouranth bought is in an undisclosed location, maintaining the safe method in which the Twitch streamer announces major investments like recent ones she made into Amazon and Activision Blizzard. Kum and Go is a business exclusive to the US, and it's primarily located in Iowa and further south in Oklahoma. The Kum and Go location Amouranth invested in has twelve service pumps, with some dedicated to diesel, on a two-acre lot that also features a small shop that isn't unlike Amouranth's Circle K station.

Spending less on Kum and Go than she did with 7-11, Amouranth confirmed that the new gas station set her back $8 million for the 25% stake. With taxes being a primary motivator
