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?
It depends on the kind of contents you are creating that will determine if it will be a sustainable source of income in the long run. It's not just about creating contents, can your style of contents become something that will give you more engagements in the future? If yes then it will continue to fetch you an income in the long term. A lot of social media platforms have been monetized which is a good technology unlike in the past when social media users only makes money for the owners but in return they are left with nothing. And yes content creating have promoted the economy in the sense that it has been able to offer many people self-employed jobs and at their comfort because some persons just stay in their houses and create contents that goes viral and get engagements by their followers but however, the problem is with the kind of contents that most people are creating now. Most contents creators are into comic contents that are very funny which is not bad but the kind of message some of them pass while trying to make their audience to laugh is very bad because we live in a world where most of the things that people practice in their daily lives are things they got the knowledge from social media.
