    Yep, a close friend of mine managed to be an established content creator with brand deals. I won’t go into specifics as it’s quite easy to extrapolate who the person are, but many people that are our mutual friends already started to think that “If [redacted] can manage to be a content creator then I must too” and started to clout chase.

      Does your friend enjoy the work? People don’t appreciate how much work it is, and how difficult it can be to have your channel become successful enough to be a job (especially if you start out making stuff that you enjoy)
