I was watching a video of prodigy's were he was showing his new car, I couldn't stand it when he said " I worked so hard for this" and I'm -blam!-ing shouting "NO YOU HAVEN'T YOU HAVE SAT ON YOU F[b]U[/b]CKING ASS AND PLAYED A VIDEO GAME !" He has manipulated stupid minds to give this man child money, and then he goes and drives way over the speed limit and land himself with a $1000 fine, which will come out of donations, yet go on his stream and there still throwing money at him and subscribing. All these streamers act like there job is so hard, when it's playing a form of entertainment for hours on end. And expecting people to give them money for some shit incentives. Sorry if I sound butthurt but I think its a bit f[b]u[/b]cked up... So I can see a pattern... ...there is 4 types of people here: 1.the one who agrees with what I say. 2.the one who says "depends what streamer it is" 3.the kids who are passionate about 30 year old pale men playing video games on camera. 4.the ones who think I'm jealous, so funny, nuff said

  • Hey man, what they do to pay the bills is work nomatter how easy the job looks. Just because one streamer is scummy doesnt mean they are all bad people.

  • Fisherman who fish competitively for a living are competitive. It works in any sense. People who sit around and make spreadsheets for a living are pathetic.

  • Dude I definitely detect some jealousy in your post. I think it's crazy that people can make a living of streaming but it is what it is.

  • Hey if they can support themselves doing what they love to do, they're fine. It's just another job in the entertainment industry. Albeit an empty and incredibly life-unfulfilling one.

  • How about "Streaming is as valid a way of making money as any other form of entertainment?"

      You're just jealous that he can do what he loves and make lots of money and you have to do a job you hate and make less.

    • Do I agree with you? Partially. Is it stupid? Somewhat. Is it lazy? It's easy to say yes, but it's no, to me at least. I think laziness is sitting on your ass, neglecting your responsibilities. These people may be sitting on their asses not being truly productive...but they're still making money to pay bills and more. Am I jealous? A little. I'd like to have thought of a way to make money that's that easy and enjoyable. I didn't though. I don't dwell on it, but it crosses my mind when the subject arises. I also wish I had thought of the genius idea of taking a robe, turning it around, calling it something asinine like "Snuggie", and making millions off of it. I didn't though. As long as there are people, there will be people doing stupid things. As long as that is happening, there will be people discovering new ways to make money off of it. There's not much we can do without controlling every person's actions.

        • To be fair, if I could make a living playing video games I would do that in a heartbeat, so can't complain. But I do think some streamers are super fake, scripted, arrogant twats
