Famous Youtubers Living With Perks & Drawback

Famous Youtubers Live Stream Gaming For Living With Perks And Drawback

For many people, it may seem like a far-off dream to think of playing video games as a full-time job on YouTube or Twitch, like becoming a rockstar or a professional athlete. For others, the very concept of a career based on video views and channel subscriptions, such as so many “social media influrncer,” may seem like a quick jump down easy street for lazy millennials who don’t want real jobs.

First, the thing we’re all wondering about: Money.

Yes, it’s true that by establishing a career on YouTube, a handful of individuals have made it really wealthy. By the end of 2017, Logan Paul made that very obvious when he bought a $6.55 million property in Los Angeles, and then posted a series of videos showing it off. very year, Forbes publishes a list of the world’s highest-paid YouTube stars, calculated through “data from Nielsen, IMDB and other sources, as well as on interviews with agents, managers, lawyers, industry insiders and the stars themselves.” And every year, a good portion of the names on the list are leading gaming-focused YouTube channels. Fischbach’s channel claims he has also raised more than $3 million for numerous charities, including the Cincinnati Children’s Medical Center, through numerous live streaming activities and drives on YouTube during his six years.

Markiplier’s monetary success is, tragically, the exception rather than the rule for most online content creators — professional gamers included.

Just as the occasional musical artist is discovered from relative anonymity while at the big time many more are waiting in the wings for their shot, there is an endless list of gamers that won’t make it big, and it’s not always lacking in trying.

However, the lack of hours in the day is still an obstacle for the more established personalities with more resources, such as paid editors and production assistants.

Some channels and characters, like Rooster Teeth, the Austin-based digital media company that produces animated shows, feature-length movies and promotes a whole range of YouTube channels devoted to video gameplay, must depend on support from distinct organizations or bigger businesses.

Mark Fischbach, who is backed by Disney, agreed: “The greatest challenge is the never-ending demand for fresh, new content. The world is consuming entertainment on an exponentially increasing scale and there’s no end to the hunger for more.”

” But for the record, I work 12 hours a day 7 days a week on average. I don’t do vacations,” he added.

For many YouTubers and their fans, the platform offers a unique approach to community engagement, despite the well-known abuse of the comments section. Read Article
