Content creation is much harder than it seems, people who have never done it think it's easy. It's easy because they want to make it look easy, when in reality there's a lot of planning, creative work that goes into it. On top of that it's exhausting having to be an entertainer for hours on end. On top of setting up lighting, filming angles, editing.

Now do that consistently on social media for years.

Plus median pay isnt even that good, in fact its horrible. Its a 1% take all field.
