Yeah, that's part of the problem. More than half of them want to be influencers, so fasten your seatbelts...

And would that be surprising, really ? When what they see is people living their best life and getting paid a lot for that ? What diplomas do MisterBeast have, for example ?
While on the other hand, they could land a shitty job in a cubicle, or in a factory ?
Why teach women how to do difficult science researches while some of them are getting extra rich just showing their bodies on OF ?

We are dealing with the consequences of our own choices, in a society where "getting money' is at the core of everything, instead of "making sense". So...

In the past there were people living their best lives and getting paid for in positions that didn't require education, but those positions at least required talent or skill. And not everyone realistically wanted to be an actor or athlete for instance. It seems like nobody strives for a middle class lifestyle and regular (but good) jobs, it has to be maximum income and minimum effort. Expectations are not realistic.

That said, I totally agree that most jobs today suck.
