    It's a high risk high reward career.
    It is quite difficult to make a decent career in it if you're not a good player. The most successful streamers are like the top 1% of the community or have some kind of unique angle to it, like a commentatory style.
    So it might be difficult to set into it but if you can make the cut, it's a highly rewarding job.
    Plus nobody can say it's easy as well, you need to learn extensive video editing, you need extreme gaming skills and you're spending hours a day in front of a screen. It's a taxing career but if it's your passion, you will enjoy it.

    It’s a job if the work is put in and money is being made. I say that because there are plenty of jobs out there that don’t cover the cost of living (that’s why they want to raise minimum wage). Now with that being said, I do believe you have to know when to throw in the towel. If they’ve been working hard at it for months on end and still aren’t producing an income, it MAY be time to call it a hobby.

    Do you mean the virtual strip club for woman and male simps? No. Men are such dogs on it. A girl with bigger boobs will get more views and be more successful than a smaller girl. Most girls go their to flaunt themselves for donations. In this generation of degenerates no male or female will care what kind of personality you have. It’s all body, looks etc. An actual job always helps. And you might say oh they’re earning way more than you’ll ever be. That’s cool idc. Id rather be getting paid way less than ever working that job anyday

    It's not a job in the sense that you work for somebody and have a boss. It's more like a business or being self employed. There is a lot of money in streaming. Of course you have to have a niche and be good at it. You are an entertainer, and need to be able to talk continuously for hours at a time. Or in some cases record the stream and add text later instead of voice.

    For some it is a job, for most it's just a hobby. Anyone can't just decide to become a professional streamer. You have to be talented in some way, kinda like being a musician, everyone can do it for fun but only few can turn it into a sustainable job.

    Not at all.
    Twitch happily bans users even if it's not written in their terms of agreement.
    say "idiots" with just the right intonation and Twitch can perceive it as the N word and then bam, you're banned for racism. It happened before. Or even cosplaying did also get female streamers banned and one of them went mental like she's lost her job.

    twitch streaming is like this odd job if you will but it's not a real job.

    You definitely have to put the work in to get to a level where you can live off of the revenue. It's quite a difficult industry to get into and if you make a living wage and don't hate doing it I don't see much of a problem.

    This is the 21st century. 9-5 is played out now for anyone who has real drive. People are getting rich off of just having a YouTube channel. Twitch is just 1 of many ways people make money from home, and if you think it’s not a real way to make money then you have a consumer mindset or you are just too traditional. On the flip side it’s not easy but it’s very do able if you put the work in and research. I wouldn’t do it simply because it doesn’t interest me, but I’d do it to make a point lol.

    It's "entertainer".

    It doesn't seem all that different from comedian, musician or footballer.
    It's just performing for money.

    I guess it things don't *feel* like a job unless you hate it.

    Well I've heard some streamers do it as if it was a full time job so like 8 hours a day. So if you're streaming that often then yeah it kind of is like a job.

    But for most people I wouldn't call it a job.

    yes. "a job". not "a profession". because as far as i see it, there's not really a long term viable career path for streamers. what if you get old? what if your plattform dies? what if streaming becomes obsolete or falls out of favor of investors like youtubes ad-pocalypse just worse?

    If you’re thinking of doing it I say go for it but only do it if you love it otherwise you’re gonna hate yourself. It’s very very unlikely you’ll blow up and become the next pokimane or Sweet Anita. So don’t quit your day job while you do it.

    If you can make money from it ( subs/bits/donation/ads revenue) yes it is job.
    One biggest twitch phenomenal now is TommyInnit , he is 16 years old British boy who have 30k subs (atm), so he should earned at least 100k usd @ month (bits/donation/ads revenue excluded) , he played and streamed minecraft most of times.

      Aight, so that shows that you have no idea what you're talking about here.
      If acting was that easy, do you really think it would be such a high paying job? There's a lot more that goes into it than just "pretend to be someone". That's just ignorant.

      Musicians have it easier than streamers in that we don't have to juggle 5 or more tasks all at once. Most we have to do at once is play well and keep moving to stay entertaining. In between songs we only have to talk and be entertaining sometimes. What makes a musician's job hard has nothing to do with their skill at playing an instrument.
      A streamer needs to be able to play the game well, interact with the audience, keep an eye on new follows, tips and subs, give entertaining commentary, make sure to not say no-no words that wouldn't be no-no words outside of Twitch and potentially more all at the same time as well as stream for hours on end consistently.

      Just because you're not familiar with the skill set, doesn't mean there's no skill involved.

      I'm guessing your ex wasn't good at it right?
      It surely is a risky career as you have to be in the top 1% of the game or have a very unique angle to it. That being said it's a high risk high reward field like a few others, making it is very hard but if you do, it's an insanely good career path.
      But very few do reach that level.

I tried to support him when it was just a hobby. Bt he went too far trying to turn it into a career when he knew he wasn't ready

      Totally understandable, after a while year if he still had seven views he should have seen he's not ready, especially not drop out from college for it.
      He'd have to have a decent viewership of over a few hundred thousand to get a good track. Maybe he just didn't stand out.
