Questions: Family & Friends

Have you ever known a good friend of family member changing because of the money or fame they got? How did you react to it? Tell me your stories!

I had this with two friends of mine. They have a TikTok & YouTube channel together which grew a lot during the corona pandemic. They went viral a lot on Tiktok which later also happend with some of their YouTube videos. Which obviously attracted a lot of attention from both fans and companies. They have been invited on a lot of events and even presented a award show twice. In all honestly I wish them the best, but it affected them as well as person itself

During the years I've seen the both of them change due to all the fame they got from their channels. One of them I know since almost 15 years, I've seen him change a lot during the years. He has grown more distant and focussed (sometimes even obsessed) on the statistics. A bad video-result in views or engagement and he felt like shit about it. The other has become focussed on the money & sponsordeals primairly. She got pregnant recently and has done tons of partnerships with baby companies, there is no day when you don't see a sponsored post or story on the social media platforms from her.
