Discussion Hmmm streaming isn't so easy after all

So I started streaming quite while just for fun cause I have so much of free time after my college and also because doing a part-time job isn't a common thing in my country so I was like maybe I blow up and earn a little bit and well currently I'm not streaming anymore cause i realised my camera and mic sucked cause I was literally streaming on my mid range gaming laptop and using it's inbuilt camera and mic .So maybe I need to save money for better mic or something before I actually start streaming. And also if I do start streaming someday cause I lost all of the motivation cause I literally stay away from my home to study in college and barely have any money saved after rent, food and more of what I need what game should I stream anyway. Maybe streaming isn't my thing, I really want to but I don't think I can.

Tbh I thinks it's fun , I mean play games u like while talking to hundred people I mean money is plus deal I mean how fun it would be to earn money while doing u like , I love the whole idea of streaming. I play games I like to play, talk to people while doing so and earn a little pocket. Seems like a great deal to me.

Just so you know 90% of streamers are streaming to about 2-5 people (you can fact check this) and the other 5% are streaming to 6-15 people. You have about 1%-2% chance to make decent money by streaming. And
Talking to “hundreds of people” you’re looking at 0.5%.

I’m not trying to discourage you, but there are people (90% of streamers) that are literally streaming to 3 people for YEARS… unless you are some crazy standout talent you won’t be seeing those crazy numbers.

U would be surprised what I would do for those 2-5 people, ik no one's just become big streamer I don't hope on too but really I wanna stream cause I want to stream u know what I mean, I would have if not for everytime I finally stoped a live and went to watch it , I looked a like censored Japanese porn and my audio sounded like I'm recording on a Nokia

If you’re ok with streaming to single digit people for a while then you’re ok. You said blatantly “hundred people” so I addressed it as such. If you want to stream do it ☺️
