    Some people are just lucky. There’s nothing wrong about it. Maybe that person will be you someday. There’s no point in despairing over it, the only thing you can do is stop worrying about it and keep hoping.

    Yeah but does that youtuber feel the satisfaction of the grind? I think not. What about all the chores you have to do just to live in the few hours after work? Suck it 8 year old.

    I don’t like those family channels that use their kids for views and money, like the toy unboxing video channels. The young kid doesn’t have a developed enough brain or enough education to make an informed decision, making it feel wrong to me. All they see is just sitting in front of a camera and playing, probably.

      Child actors have been making more than you

      Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen were billionaires - on paper - before they turned 18. But they had unpleasant young lives.

        But they had unpleasant young lives.

        So did a lot of people, but they didn’t get a billion dollars for their troubles.

          You can float in and out of rehab in a drug-fueled haze for a lot less than a billion dollars. The industry is horrifically abusive, particularly to young people. And for every Mary Kate and Ashley, there’s a legion of kids who endure all that abuse for nothing.

    Don’t worry, there are plenty of kids (and adults) with plenty more than that who didn’t have to go on YouTube and/or work for it.
