    The average salary for an iron worker is lower than that of a professor, so he seems to just be lucky.

    I'm a teenager. I need to figure out crap in life. I might some help figuring this stuff out. Thank you for information about this stuff. Maybe art isn't a good career after all.
    Maybe, he is lucky. I'm not sure. Thank you for the information.

    Thank you @Addicti0nToB00st .

    By the way, my show won't just be me driving with my imaginary friends on rainy days. There will also be BeamNG stuff in there too. I actually do voice impressions of Jeremy Clarkson, James May, and Richard Hammond. I might be able to put that in my show as well.

    Thank you. Hopefully that YouTube thing will happen by 2021 or so.
    Just people telling you what to do in general. By the way, I'm not sure if I'm on the right path to success or not. @Addicti0nToB00st, I have 2 questions for you.

    1. What path do you take to get success in the art industry?
    2. What would be better, doing YouTube with Patreon and merch, or Youtube with just monetization from ads and no Patreon or merch?

    From what I've heard and seen, here would be my answers as of today.
    1. Develop your art first before commissioning, and use titles/thumbnails or tags to get more attention. If you wanted to, you can also sell prints.
    2. Definitely the former, as it seems to be a lot more easier to be demonetized than ever before. Additionally, that's why a lot of YouTubers do sponsors or use Patreon, as it's more of their 'last resort' for any form of revenue. Additionally, it's a guarantee that you'll be able to make it from a side job into a hobby, while depending on ads will likely take a long while to get something decent of profit from it.

    There are two things I've thought about that made me reach a certain conclusion.

    The first is that the American stress and worry levels have increased by 1/4 in the last 12 years, despite all the technological and economic advancement.
    https://www.marketwatch.com/story/a...d-this-group-is-suffering-the-most-2019-04-25

    The second is that despite majors like philosophy paying basically nothing, and computer science offering piles of cash, there is still too many people doing the former and too few doing the latter.



    And the combination of these led me to a conclusion that modern life is not adapted for humans. We aren't able to cope with the technical advancement, and the products of the labor who can do it do nothing to satisfy the rest, who keep suffering from rising levels of anxiety.



    Does anyone else think that today's life isn't so good?

    I might put ads on the videos, but I would also use Patreon. I heard about Youtubers turning their hobbies into a full time job because of Patreon. However, I have a back up plan in case it fails.
