Can you articulate how this particular Twitch streamer is employing deep knowledge and thought to improve her work? To the tune of $250k+ compensation? Can't anyone hire someone with experience in theater/film lighting to setup their stream studio with a day's labor? https://twitter.com/gundamishere/status/1106672499796951040?lang=en https://twitter.com/gundamishere/status/1106672499796951040?...

So are you saying just because she is pretty she can pull in those $$? Because there are a lot of pretty women in the world and I would say 99% aren't 1% as successful. There is definitely skill and knowledge involved.

  >>Because there are a lot of pretty women in the world and I would say 99% aren't 1% as successful. 99% of the pretty women aren't leveraging a tech platform to directly extract resources from lonely dudes across the entire planet. It's more due to ignorance of their options for monetizing their sexuality than it is well-developed and unique skillsets. I've actually been debating starting a CamStudio with a friend of mine, as I've met more than a few cute women who don't grasp the concept of "You can make more money by just sitting your butt in front of a computer monitor all day in makeup and a low-cut top". Anyone who has worked in a cabaret, a "girls bar/snack bar", or a strip club understands the basics of talking to the Johns, and appearance-enhancing makeup and outfits. Camming/streaming just combines their social skills with IT/technical support to expand their potential client base. They won't become Belle Delphine overnight but there's a lot of room for low-effort revenue growth with a bit of management and guidance, IMO.

  > "The ‘control show’ I mentioned above plays into this. Give men a way to fight against each other, with tokens. A common tactic is to have guys buy into “teams”, and whichever team tips the most, wins ..." Did I just learn something about two-party politics?
