          Well youtube is more up to chance and pretty indifferent to how much effort you actually put in, but if you study really hard you'll probably have more of a guarantee for your career (not necessarily tho)

          Either way kids should dream about getting an actually cool job

        We spend more manpower and resources on YouTube promotion than space travel.

      If someone offered to give me $20k a month for screaming and blabbing on a live stream

      You need to scream and babble for years on end in order for the OPPORTUNITY to get enough subscribers to justify $2k/mo much less $20k.

      This is akin to saying "I'd rather be Kobe Bryant than compete for an opportunity to work at Cape Canaveral". I mean, yeah. No shit. The sure thing is always better than the opportunity, when the sky is the limit. But for every successful Vlogger, there are thousands of failures. Meanwhile, the ability to Post is only ever really useful in the context of an inward-looking narcassistic consumerist culture. The ability to survive in space has some very broad applications even on the ground.
