it's probably fairly accurate that that amount people can't afford a gaming platform. i'm not sure your last question is genuinely seeking an answer, but I feel secure in saying that I'm willing to bet a bunch of inner-city kids from Brooklyn, cannot afford a viable gaming system, nor can their families. not everyone lives like you, ya know?!
- geoah 3y agoI can’t be sure what the parent commenter’s question was, but for me the weird part was the “and start making money”. Is there common knowledge or sentiment that if only you could get your hands on a console or pc, you can then “start making money”? If so, how? Especially with a console. Is this something these youtubers are promoting or telling people how to so? I completely understand that not everyone can afford a console, but the making money kinda confused me.

- briandon 3y agoI've re-read the comment to which you're replying a couple of times to make sure I didn't missing something myself. AFAICT, they weren't questioning the existence of people who cannot afford PCs or gaming consoles (the thrust of your reply). They were expressing surprise at the idea, possibly widespread, that merely owning a PC or a gaming console constituted some sort of surefire path to generating income for their owner.
