I haven't looked at his site in over a year. But now I just did. Weird shit. On one page he is bashing anybody who takes a government handout. Yet to the left of the paragraph is a DONATE button. The subsequent page has like a stalker vibe with pictures of newscaster Sharon Tay.

I Get By With A Little Help From My Friends
When I quit writing on porn in October of 2007, I had $6,000 in the bank. Now I have $26,000 in credit card debt. I have $10,000 in other debts. And I owe my family about $9,000.
Over the past 18 months, I’ve spent $2000 on Alexander Technique lessons and about $8500 on Alexander Teacher training. I’ve spent about $4,000 on acupuncture and about $2500 on psycho-therapy and about $1800 on physical therapy and about $5,000 on other medical expenses (including health insurance of $300 a month).
I’ve had friends who’ve helped me out over the past two years. One guy I barely knew (I’d just exchanged a couple of terse emails) paypaled me $1100. Others have donated about $200 total. Other friends have steered work my way, allowing me earn about $3,000.
So my biggest source of help over the past two years has come from my family. I’ve never borrowed from them before (but they helped me out considerably during my years in the wilderness of Chronic Fatigue Syndrome).
