I got one of those crazy looking ones from gravastar, after owning one of those super expensive razer mice’s that came with a big ass acrylic show cases like you bought the queen’s crown. After that I owned one similar from Corsair and before those I owned a mad catz rat 9.
I actually really like the gravastar one, but I don’t game competitively.
I’m a crane operator, if we still got the wages people would get 15 years ago and all the required paperwork it would feel important.
But now it’s just a: “hey guy, go try it out…see how it goes” and if it goes well you get to stay…for the same wage and no official paperwork to prove you’re capable and as such no opportunity to do the same at a new employer and maybe build up your wage.
It’s a bit if a run on ramble, but yeah… that’s how I feel, after 30 years of trying to save money, increase my skills and wage, not owning a car to save on costs and doing everything on a bicycle up to 40km a day and still not being able to buy a house…I’m ready to throw in the towel
I wouldn’t count on it, my wife has been trying to the best of her abilities and at the limit of our financial reach…it’s been 10 years so far, 20k on insta and recently picked up YouTube which was now getting close to getting paid pennies…but not anymore it seems.
You either have to get lucky or have the funds and means to keep pushing yourself into the system until you trip over success.
My wife had a single sponsor which paid her €20 per month but being sponsored by them led to her followers expecting her to behave like customer support 24/7.
She now has this co-op with a printer resin company where she gets a percentage of each sale…she made zero in the past 10 months of pushing the product.
At least she’s happy for being able to share her interest and hobby with a fuckload of other people.
