Sounds like drug dealing to me. You get paid to push products at people and call it a career. 5 years from now there are millions of people earning nothing on Youtube influencing no one and having no real alternative. In the end only a few strike it rich and the rest get nothing vs learning something that might actually be a reasonable career.

- conjectures 7y agoIt's like every other get rich quick scheme: as soon as you've heard of it chances are it's too late.
- yoz-y 7y ago> You get paid to push products at people and call it a career. While there are definitely a lot of channels whose main purpose is to push products, there are tons of YouTubers that only do so to earn money and the value of the videos is elsewhere. Numberphile does have product placement but calling them a drug dealer would be quite misguided.
