Personal Life[]
Ghifari was born on September 19, 1995 in Jakarta. He is the first of three children, his first brother is a boy, while his youngest is a girl. Ghifari took his primary school education at SD 06 Petang Jakarta. When he was in elementary school, Ghifari was arguably a quiet and shy child, but he entered the ranks of outstanding students because he always got a ranking in elementary school. Graduated from Elementary School then he continued to SMPN 139 Jakarta, Ghifari spent high school education at SMKN 48 Jakarta majoring in Multimedia. Since childhood, Ghifari has really liked the world of games, but while still in kindergarten Ghifari was not familiar with digital games. He still really likes playing traditional games such as marbles and kites. It was only when he was in 6th grade that Ghifari started getting to know games on the PlayStation. He also often feels at home playing games at PS rental places or internet cafes. To the point that his mother once went to the PS rental shop to tell Ghifari to come home.
When in middle school, Ghifari's hobby of playing games became increasingly unstoppable, he increasingly played games at PS rentals or internet cafes. Ghifari also often gives permission from his parents to do assignments. But he only really did the task for 10 minutes, the rest he played games at the internet cafe or PS rental for hours. When playing games at PS rentals, he likes playing GTA, Naruto, and Mortal Kombat games the most. But the most memorable game for Ghifari is Resident Evil 4. This also has an effect on his performance at school, if previously at elementary school Ghifari he used to rank in school, not when he was in middle school. In addition to having many outstanding students at middle school, Ghifari also spent more time playing games.
After graduating from SMKN 48 Jakarta, Ghifari continued his studies at STIKOM Jakarta majoring in Computer. At that time he only took lectures on Saturdays, while on weekdays he worked at Pasar Senen. He worked in a printing and graphic design company. In this company Ghifari is in charge of designing stickers and t-shirts for election needs. He worked in this company for 1 and a half years. After resigning from a printing and graphic design company, Ghifari worked at Thamrin City as a content writer at a game website company. However, he only worked for 1 year at this company because the company went bankrupt. After that Ghifari decided not to immediately work again, he chose to rest for 3 months. Because, since he graduated from SMK, Ghifari has never been unemployed at all.
During his rest period, Ghifari decided to buy a PC from the savings he had worked so far. After having PC Ghifari again applied for remote work. He was also accepted as the admin and designer of an online shop on Instagram which did not require Ghifari to work in an office. Having his own PC also allows Ghifari to play games, the games he plays mostly are Assassin's Creed and DreadOut. When playing DreadOut, Ghifari experienced difficulties and got stuck. He also looked for a way out by looking at the gameplay from other YouTubers. Starting from there, he found the MiawAug channel. Feeling inspired, he also followed the way to play MiawAug, Ghifari finally had the idea to build a YouTube channel like MiawAug and GamerSejati.
YouTube[]
In 2016, Ghifari finally created a YouTube channel with the name Spelemen. The first video was uploaded on July 27, 2016. The first content was sharing tips and tricks to quickly level up while playing the Pokémon Go game. However, Ghifari's journey in the world of YouTube was not smooth. When the Spelemen channel already had around 6K subscribers and was able to monetize up to around USD 100. Suddenly the channel was suspended by YouTube because of a problem with AdSense. Ghifari was certainly disappointed by this but he tried to make an effort. Not waiting long, he returned to creating a YouTube channel with the same name. After 2 weeks of diligently uploading content, Ghifari regained 6K subscribers. But another disappointing thing happened, again the second channel was suspended by YouTube for no apparent reason.
He returned to making his third YouTube channel. this time he called it Stresmen. He chose this name because he was already getting stressed because YouTube had suspended his channel twice. He uploaded the video for the first time on the Stresmen channel on November 23, 2016. The first video uploaded was about the game Minecraft. It didn't take long for Ghifari to get subscribers. Within 3 weeks his subscriber immediately reached 10K, he waited a month to receive an AdSense pin from YouTube to withdraw AdSense money. Fortunately the third channel could not be suspended from YouTube. Ghifari is also increasingly active in uploading content on the Stresmen channel. Until finally, his income from AdSense was able to match his salary as an online shop admin. He also decided to resign from his job. Not only that, Ghifari also decided to give up his studies, which at that time was in semester 7. Ghifari was not serious about pursuing his job as a YouTuber. He has recorded several collaborations with fellow Minecraft gaming YouTubers on the Sans SMP server with GemmaD, [fif Yulistian, BeaconCream, etc. The Stresmen channel continues to grow every year. On May 26, 2017, Ghifari managed to get 100K subscribers and got the Silver Play Button from YouTube. On October 11 2018, Stresmen managed to gather 1 million subscribers and was entitled to the Golden Play Button. Until 2021, Stresmen has received more than 2.5 million subscribers.[1]
