Get Rich or Die Vlogging: The Sad Economics of Internet Fame
I honestly thought this was parody.
Incredibly tone deaf and depressing. The inability to distinguish between reality and fantasy is frightening, much less basic supply and demand, value and noise or work and play.
At no point does she wonder if there's an better way to make a living.
Cringey excerpts:
"Many famous social media stars are too visible to have “real” jobs, but too broke not to."
"Why would someone with 90,000 Instagram followers be serving brunch?"
"As I started having more visibility on the internet, I had to scale back on serving people.”
"What if people assume you’re too successful to need money, and you’re too proud to tell them otherwise?"
“This is making me sad,” she said as she took stock of her future job options at a Starbucks in Sherman Oaks. “I have to do YouTube at this point. Shit. I have to succeed.”
