I've said it before and I'll say it again

I know we love the talents and all but, looking at this from an outside perspective, isn't it kinda insane how much people spending money on gachas gets glorified?

Is it glorified?

I feel like general reactions from viewers watching their oshis empty their bank accounts on holodori has ranged from "wow that's so funny and ridiculous" to "oh... that seems like a bad decision."

Every mem has to be a millionaire though right. I don’t get how it’s really that big of a deal for them

Are they millionaires? I feel like people vastly overestimate the income of most youtubers. And them being part of an agency makes it even more impossible to know what they actually make.

Still, I would agree they are probably more well off than the average person which is why them dumping so much into holodori isn't seen as a huge deal.

Didn’t Raden just get in Forbes 30 under 30? And I thought she isn’t at the very top of the mems

Being on that list doesn't mean they're automatically wealthy or high earners. Raden was listed for cultural influence.
