I mean, if given the chance would you rather have a job where you can chat about your hobbies and get people to send you money and gifts related to your hobby?

No child is picking "Soul crushing office work" are they.

I mean not when the kid pretending to be a roach bum on twitch makes more than I make in a lifetime every single day.

If the turns were tabled - as they were 20 years ago - you'd still have kids wanting to be soul crushingly rich.
