Time is a valuable resource that many creators risk losing in pursuit of online fame. Rich explains that gaining success on TikTok requires a significant time commitment, often extending to over ten hours a day.

Despite the immense effort, Rich laments that this labor does not yield sufficient financial rewards. Unforeseen challenges in monetization only exacerbate the situation for creators like him.
