I really have no idea if he collects welfare for real. Rather, he strikes he as the type of person that would while talking shit about others in similar situations. I see now that he sells plasma (which I did in college to buy beer, so can't really knock that).
His player card for Call of Duty sheds some light onto his personality, though...
If done as a parody, this could be sort of funny. I very much believe there is nothing parody about this, though.
