'Oh god': There's a buried Steam help page that shows how much money you've ever spent on the platform, and you may not want to know (www.pcgamer.com)

TotalSpend 1433$ OldSpend 434$

Not sure if I should add the two ? or is the second one included in the first one ? Anyway that's not too bad for a 14yo account

It's formatted weird on the Steam page but I have this text at the top.

"TotalSpend" is the total amount of external funds applied to your account. This value is used to determine if an account is a "Limited User Account".

"OldSpend" is the amount of external funds applied before Friday, April 17, 2015 18:00:00 UTC. If your account was linked to Perfect World for CS:GO or Dota 2,

"PWSpend" will be the approximate USD value of funds applied from Perfect World, otherwise that value will be zero. If your account has applied external funds in Steam China,

"ChinaSpend" will report that total, in RMB.

Weirdly I also have a row for "PackageOnlySpend" that doesn't have a definition.

Yea same, I don't know what that last one is. So Total is the total, and Old is the part of the total that was applied before april 17th 2015. I think it makes sense. About 100$ a year, or roughly 8$ a month. I was afraid what I'd find tbh
