Yep this is true. No one can earn a billion dollars by working, but you can earn a billion dollars by making money off of other people

Exactly!

"I'm hungry help me" this is so sad and f****d up

this is horrible :(

"Like"

The only appropriate response to this is a letter of resignation.

Well.. they are not wrong...

I hope it's an inside joke

I find this kinda funny, personally

That's pretty sad!!!

You tubers are millionaires who release content almost daily. Of course kids like them, they are kid crack with thier crazy and loud content that parents won’t ever let you do. Fill a bath try e with slime!?! Ok on YouTube! Not ok at home..lol

People saying being a youtuber is not realistic !? And you reckon being an astronaut is???

youtubers/vloggers may not be as bad as you think, a lot of them raised millions of dollars for the Austraila bushfires. Lots of vloggers/youtubers have channels about saving wildlife. They also give homeless people houses and food, so they can live without wondering where their next meal is coming from. Lots of them cut off their hair for kids with cancer. They make money by having fun and helping animals and people, so why rain on their parade. Please don't be so quick to judge.

Both are fanciful to be honest. Only good thing about the "astronaut" option is, hopefully, the kid is willing to work hard.

More of a chance to be the 2nd and 3rd ones.

Karl from fact fiend had a pretty good response to this. He talked about how it’s the modern evolution of the “easy/fun job” where kids want to get paid to do things they love. If you love playing soccer and you see people getting paid to play soccer, you want to be a soccer player. If you love to bake and you see people getting paid to make cupcakes, you want to be a pastry chef. Kids nowadays love playing fortnite and Minecraft, and see people like ninja making bank off of youtube, and they want to make a career out of doing what they love.

The reality being that 99.9999% of the kids wanting to be astronauts will never, ever achieve anything near their goal. As for the vloggers & youtubers, they have a far better chance of making some kind of living out of it even if they have to work a 'real' job part time.

I'm 30 and I still want to be an astronaut :)

And this is a great example of why China is powering ahead of the West!

youtube. is. not. a. career. so many of my classmates still don't know this...

Youtube.... It has taken over... bow down to the videos.... Youtube... COME TO ME!!!!!.......

Beyond tragic. What pap are we selling to our 8 - 12 year olds?

source: lego. hmmmm

Um ... a well adjusted adult who doesn't need social media to dictate how I live?

When I was little, most of my peers wanted to be star athletes. I don't think that's any better.

At least it's self employed

I mean... vloggers are well liked! If they make good vlogs they get good money! I don’t know...

Be in "paradis hotel"

Vloggers/youtubers = Asian "F"

My grandchildren are proof of this... Unfortunately.

This makes me eternally grateful that I chose not to have kids.

Sad for our country

ugh, we're doomed

I reaply hope they grow up

SICK societies. Screwed up value systems. And when China overtakes the West on most parameters there are, then the would-be vlogger/youtubers will be screaming bloody murder. Poor kids! Children are never ever to blame, their parents are.

That's why we all have to learn chinese

I have a hard time believing this.

Oof, that's unfortunate advertising

Tree showing CODIT around heartwood indicates rot

Like a vegan wearing a real leather jacket :D

How sick is that?! Sure, make a person loose their job so you get a discount!

Huh?

That’s scary, man.

Pseudoscience meets capitalism!

Seriously?! Now they are stressing you... I know it's called fast food but some people (like me) eat slowly!
