    What I don't understand is....where does the money go with these young Youtube/Insta stars?

    If she put that 500k away in a moneymarket, a ROTH....anything that would acrue....she would be set for retirement and would be able to work without having that hanging over her head.
    That in itself would be absolutely amazing and a reason to celebrate. Not many people get that leg up on their finances at her age.

    Another thought....I wonder if younger people think about the fact that their sons and daughters are going to be able to view the photos they put on Insta. Like...you post innapropriate pics of yourself on the web, attached to your name...that's like tatooing your reputation for as long as the internet continues to exist. Yikes.

    Yeah, people don't really learn about managing their money from their parents anymore. I remember we used to get allowances, and if we wanted something, we gotta resist the urge to splurge an save up. Not sure if young kids these days are even taught that at home much less in detail in school anymore. As for consequences, I find....a lot of people these days don't know what that means.

    They spend it like there's no tomorrow. You see it all the time with streamers. Look at DSP (but not for too long) and his financial rut.

    They don't think.

    yeah SPLIT you right. It's just sad to see that opportunity they had go right out the window.

    That be true. Nor is it taught in schools. I remember having to sit there and help mom go through receipts and balance the checkbook. Hated it and I gave her grief about it, but wow do I appreciate it now.

    Well if I get my account terminated on Roblox does that count as murder?
    To be honest I think of my accounts as people. If they get banned, deteled, or I don't play on them how do they feel?

    Remember when someone here said Michael Bay raped their childhood because of his Transformers movies? This is basically the equivalent of that.

    These people should be forced to work on a farm for a season with nothing but a landline.
