We're doomed. Over half of people under 45 would quit their job to become a "social media influencer".

I saw a documentary on tik tok last night. It is frightening how addicted young people are to that platform. If you have young kids it would be a really good idea to see what they are doing and what tik tok is pushing AT THEM based on tik tok profiling algorithms. The idea that nearly half of young people think babbling into a phone and filming yourself is the ideal job should scare everyone.

You can make money as content creator but not a lot. Not the best job but it is easy.

Nah, they will die of starvation and the reasonable people will be left.

Win/win.

Think of it like trying to be a guitar God, or an NFL quarterback. The cream of the crop will rise to the top, while the vast majority will fall by the wayside. I scroll my TikTok feed once every morning, so I don't think that you have anything to worry about.

That's almost HALF of our young people aspiring to be useless narcissists producing nothing of value, bro.

It wouldn't surprise me if there aren't a few "social media influencers" on this board. I've often wondered what Billy does for money.

That is so weird…when I first read about “influencer” being an occupation….I thought WTH!

Where the TikTokcracy Holds Court

Social media’s latest swans don’t hobnob at exquisite homes designed by Billy Haines. They throw ragers at empty McMansions in L.A.’s toniest enclaves. The neighbors are not pleased.

"would quit", not "will quit".
Many people would quit their job to take a perceived easier and higher paid job, they don't because you can't have more than the market can handle.

Old people are ignorant.
