Some people are just lucky. There's nothing wrong about it. Maybe that person will be you someday. There's no point in despairing over it, the only thing you can do is stop worrying about it and keep hoping.

American ~~dream~~ illusion formula right there.
Someone needs to carve this into a clay tablet and bury it.
Yeah but does that youtuber feel the satisfaction of the grind? I think not. What about all the chores you have to do just to live in the few hours after work? Suck it 8 year old.

The intent is to provide workers with a sense of pride and accomplishment for paying different bills.
As for cost, we selected initial values based upon data from the Open Beta and other adjustments made to milestone rewards before launch. Among other things, we're looking at average per-worker dollar earn rates on a daily basis, and we'll be making constant adjustments to ensure that workers have challenges that are compelling, rewarding, and of course attainable via hard work.
We appreciate the candid feedback, and the passion the community has put forth around the current topics here on Lemmy, our forums and across numerous social media outlets.
Our team will continue to make changes and monitor community feedback and update everyone as soon and as often as we can.
I thought I recognized this comment lmao
It's gonna be interesting to see what the most downvoted comment on Lemmy ends up being
I don't like those family channels that use their kids for views and money, like the toy unboxing video channels. The young kid doesn't have a developed enough brain or enough education to make an informed decision, making it feel wrong to me. All they see is just sitting in front of a camera and playing, probably.
It's almost like an economic system that purports itself as a fair system that rewards hard work regularly reveals itself to be arbitrary and rewards those that already have more often than not.
Nationalise that bitch ass 8 year old and seize their wealth for the people 💪
"Listen up Timmy. The revolution is here for you, now are you going to be a good little comrade or will we have to educate you on proper non-wealth hoarding behavior?"
Child actors have been making more than you since the 50s (probably before hand as well).

Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen were billionaires - on paper - before they turned 18. But they had unpleasant young lives.
But they had unpleasant young lives.
So did a lot of people, but they didn't get a billion dollars for their troubles.
You can float in and out of rehab in a drug-fueled haze for a lot less than a billion dollars. The industry is horrifically abusive, particularly to young people. And for every Mary Kate and Ashley, there's a legion of kids who endure all that abuse for nothing.
A lot of them got screwed out of their money, especially in the old days where there were no laws to protect them.
You can't compare yourself to others.
Live the life you have as you are, not the life of others as you will never be.
Everyone else seems to compare me to others. Not comparing myself to others seems foolish if I want to do things like have a job.
People that do it, usually do it because they themselves being compared to others (by their own or by others), so they don't know another way.
If it works for you, go ahead, but if it won't, remember you can do it your way, even though it might be different than others.
In my opinion, having a job is not something that is done because others do it, but it's done because you want to do it. But if you don't want to do it, change to something you'd want to do.
"Doing things" is part of the human core, so you have it in your core, regardless of others. "Job" is just getting paid for "Doing things".
Some of them do it because it's been bullied into them. My daughter, who used to be very independent (and still is in some ways thankfully), had to be taken out of her middle school because of the bullying and she is constantly asking if it's weird that she does this or that and I have to keep reassuring her that it doesn't matter if it's weird as long as it makes her happy and even though kids will treat her like shit now, when she's an adult, most people won't care. The only people who will care are the ones who never grew up.
But yeah, she's become someone who compares herself to others. Because she's scared about what they will do to her because she's different.
She's actually starting to dress how she wants to dress again instead of trying to look neutral. It's terrific.
How does jealousy help you have a job?
Theoretically, it makes you push yourself to be competitive.
Maybe you should post your own videos with 8 year olds?
The judge has ordered me to no longer do this.
Then why did you come here with a 6 pack of wine coolers and condoms in your pocket?
He probably always carries condoms on him. Who knows, bitches might jump him at some random 13 year old's house.
Aaaand he gets to work from home. Fml
Life isn't fair, better to not dwell on it.
Don't worry, there are plenty of kids (and adults) with plenty more than that who didn't have to go on YouTube and/or work for it.
I should have done that. Darn it!
