how much longer will this e-celeb bubble exist for? doesn't seem right that kids with no background in entertainment are catapulted to stardom with little effort.
>multi-million dollar celebrity overnight i'd point you to every streamer with ~10 people watching

Are they actually millionaires though? Plus that's pretty much it. Not like there are hundreds of people who make it big

Yes. twitchstats.net/real-sub-count Pretty much everyone in the top 30 is a millionaire. A sub is a minimum of 3.99 a month. So tfue for example is getting 43,512 * 3.99 = 173,612.88 a month. And then you add in regular donations. People sometimes drop hundreds or even thousand dollar donations.
this is extremely over exaggerated very few people at the very top of twitch make good money streaming and it's been the same people for years and years now
99.99999999999999% of streamers earn less than minimum wage

>sit at home playing video games >earn minimum wage this shit needs to be stopped. too many kids dropping out of high school to full-time stream as if that shit is a future career.
Jonathan Hernandez

Sense of belonging and they feel important when their donation gets broadcasted to thousands of viewers.
>I'm helping a content creator hurrr
While the guy/slut makes hundreds of dollars every 5 minutes
This. For every one of these guys , there’s thousands of streamers making nothing.
Asher Butler
That's bullshit a lot of those people pay editors to run a Patreon and a youtube channel on the side, they are making bank.

>So tfue for example is getting 43,512 * 3.99 = 173,612.88 a month. That's before taxes.

>Spends money left and right on "streaming equipment"
Their job is to entertain people from the comfort of their house, literally everything they buy is deductible. That business is so fucking crooked.
Carter Ross
There is no "agree" on what a millionaire is. You either are one or aren't.
Sebastian Richardson
i only know pewdiepie and james, what do i win?

>bubble This is no bubble. This is just a new avenue for hopefuls to become a celebrity, and it'll only grow from here as more and more young lives are spent mostly online.
For gaming, it's extremely competitive. It's either the top 1% of players, or people who just luck out in the time and game choice and are excellent at pandering to their viewers.
