That everyone wanted to live in.
wanted to live in.
A hundred percent.
Also, I did just check on Instagram and my profile has received fifty four and a half million views in the last thirty days.
Thank you, everyone.
I appreciate it.
But
I I just want to say in my own experience, because a lot of why I feel compelled to make this episode is my own experience of being a more or less full-time content creator for the past nine years, the last two of which I've had stable income for.
And that is largely thanks to this podcast and things like the advertisers on this podcast and Patreon and ways that you have to like get creative to create consistent income.
Because brand deals provide that for almost nobody.
And I say this also because those 54 million views on my Instagram profile, they've converted to from the Instagram content itself, zero dollars because Instagram doesn't pay creators.
And it's not that I feel entitled to money as a creator, but when you consider how much ad revenue you as a creator and all creators are driving to these ads,
Apps which would be nothing without creators.
It's like, yeah, well, you should pay creators actually.
That's something actually YouTube set a standard for and does a relatively good job of.
And it's something TikTok did a good job of at the very beginning of its platform when it had something called the TikTok Creator Fund, which it still has.
Mm-hmm.
However, nowadays creators on TikTok get paid pennies to the dollar of what they used to make because
Once TikTok had enough creators to sustain itself as a platform that could entertain people, they stopped paying creators nearly what they were paying before.
Yeah.
