Do you notice that so many people are into content creation these days? Everyone is always filming something and posting it in hopes of gaining views, likes and followers. Once they have enough audience, they can start earning from their page and this is what is their biggest motivator. There are people who have day jobs that don't pay enough so they try their luck in content creation.
Now, I am seeing many more kids just get into it right away instead of trying to find other traditional jobs. The older generation do not even consider this a real job. But do you think, as lucrative the industry is, will it survive? Will it continue to be a good source of income? If you are struggling financially, have you ever considered content creation? Does content creation offer anything to the economy?
What the older generation doesn't know is that someone can stay in the comfort of their home to earn a lot. The older generation thinks that someone should be employed or learn a skilled trade before they can feed themselves. They don't know that the world has moved past the analog era to the digital era, where things are digitized.
To my best of my knowledge, there is a whole lot of money on the Internet, the one you find your expertise on, do it with your whole might, and don't relent from it because there's always a pay day.
Content creation has come to stay; it has made many individuals financially free, and it will continue to do so, as long as social media platforms exist.
