I haven’t watched LTT in a long time (basically ever since it was publicly obvious the money got to his head and everything that comes with ego), so when I saw somewhere he bought a jet, I first thought it was April Fools. Then after a short research I realized he’s for real. My partner, on the other hand, was convinced I fell for it, and it took me a while to prove him otherwise.
Absolutely wild what Linus managed to convince (some of?) his fanboys. People will suck off filthy rich assholes like it’s their job.
most influencers on YT are already quite wealthy or well off, yea he built his “brand” over 10+years. and then there are the low bottomfeeders influencers that want to be the rich ones too.
Not entirely sure what the point of your comment is.
However, most influencers/“content creators” aren’t wealthy. Only the top of the top. I can’t tell you the percentage, but I know for a fact many of them are compensated only in paid travel and accommodation when traveling to promote whatever they’re paid to promote. They don’t get actual money. I know because there’s an influencer in my partner’s extended family who was pushed into the “business” very young by their parent.
There are also many who earn just enough as if they were working a regular 9-5 job. And if their viewership drops — which it usually does — they’re fucked.

This sentence is wild.
Funny how he finally managed to buy his own place after ditching LTT. Just another proof how much wealth the rich are extracting from us.
(PS: no severance package after working for so long for LTT is such a dick move)
