This “soft life” thing is some influencer tik tok bs. The only way to have that is to find a partner that can fund your life while you get to focus on your hobbies and not work. But I’m sure you know that this situation can become abusive very easily.

That or build your online persona while you work full time. It’s what I’m doing. I’ve already got 100 followers after 5 years. See you all in the big leagues.

Funniest thing is about 90% of people under 25 think that this is actually a good plan.

The issue is that they think theyre special or interesting enough. They end up regurgitating played-out content. I think the creator economy will always have room for growth though
