People forget most creators (not all, but most) built their platforms while working full-time jobs and posting for years when no one was watching. It looks easy, but it’s not. The irony is that many of the same people saying “creators make too much” also want to be creators themselves. In my opinion it’s less about money and more about envy. Creating consistent, quality content is real work… don’t downplay that.

One of my favorite quotes from a video on TT is “you are paid for your value, not your time” …. Creators deliver TREMENDOUS value to brands!!!

The only corporate 9-5 people who say that have to truly be old school boomers. We all know as much as corporate is glorified, most people in corporate are not that smart. Saying that as someone who works in corporate beauty and also makes content - it’s smart to do BOTH!

I feel content creators being new Avon sellers also just translates to selling yourself to others for the sake of influencing. It doesn’t translate to not being smart, corporate & CC isn’t the same- totally different

They don’t even deserve this. You are one of the most brilliant people I know. Absolutely jealously.

It’s whole departments in organizations dedicated to what just one content creator does. They judge because they do not know.

A content creator has to be a a creative director, executive director, producer, talent, and business savvy to be a full time content creator. So, yes I agree. Comparable

Building platforms during the hardest times, with so much that needs to be self taught, etc just to still be told it comes to easy!

Hot Take- I think the issue is people don’t see being a creative as stable. People don’t see what you do as marketing or branding because there is no tangible item to hold. I think it’s kinda lazy to label the disconnect as simply“jealousy” when it is multi-layered. Hustle culture has deeply impacted our society over the last decade(Good/Bad). With creators like yourself it is deeper than an “Avon sales lady” mindset. The attack on content creators is truly rooted in most not feeling like they’re able to get a piece of the pie…. but corporate America is shareable. Just “work hard”, lol.

Glorified Avon sales people has me weak asf . The hate is definitely rooted in jealousy. They are scared to put themselves out there like how we are . They think it’s easy because they see the result but not the path .

It also sounds sexist as hell, putting down women, the liking of makeup, and the economies working women create. I bet no one’s saying this to men.

I'm rooting for all Ethnic Black Americans in the corporate and content space. There's a huge discrepancy there but people benefitting swear that it doesn't exist.
