This was a very interesting article and made me think about a lot of things.
Where I live, it is nearly impossible to live by yourself off of the minimum wage. I have two friends who both work and live together, and still have to do things like collect coupons and get money off of rebates so that they can actually still live.
I can see that in the YouTube and Twitch space, this has happened with videos games, as well as vlogging and just living your life.
