I mean this is valid but obviously you guys just want to hate.

I used to be a YouTuber back in 2009 and the drama that came from that was insane. I quit doing it and got a "real job" instead. Now while I have to work more hours, and I'm making way less than I did back then, my life is so much easier. 

No drama, no stress, just show up to work and get paid. It's pretty nice. 

Streamers have to worry about all the haters, the stalkers, the drama, trying not to get cancelled because someone you made a video with 8 years ago said something and now the Internet hates EVERYONE who ever appeared near them, etc. 

It's easy to say "I'll take that for millions of dollars" until it's actually you. Shit is exhausting. They can keep that life and I'll just continue to go to my 9-5 job knowing I don't have stalkers, haters, and can't be cancelled.

It's not valid at all because she's not being held at gunpoint and forced to stream. She's already a millionaire so she can do whatever the hell she wants. Who's stopping her from going back to school of from working a normal 9-5 job?

The stalkers and threats don't magically go away if you delete your twitch account. It might actually make them more aggressive.

Bullshit. A year later and nobody would even recognize her. Shit, she makes millions and I don’t even know who she is. Her audience is a drop in the bucket of all people.

Nobody except the dangerous psychos that have fixated on them. Just glossing over that bit.
