@Monorea: Yes, but as I said, I tried sharing my channel but no one views my videos so I can't get started. That's probably because I don't write lyrics and all I do is sing already existing songs. Also, I don't have any of the equipment so the quality isn't great. That's probably why too. I just use my computer for the video and audio. No great microphone or camera. As we talked about before, it's kind of exhausting and annoying. Youtube, I mean. I tried keeping up with making lots of videos and posting them, but I got sick of it and how no one viewed my videos, so I gave up XD

@Kiri: Youtube does bully content creators a bit but having a decent set up is fairly essential to get people to watch and you need to get your name out there which means before one start one should have a good chunk of good quality content and know people that can promote you for a while at least like other youtubers and even then it usually takes a few years before a channel gets any traction. So yeah it's not an easy place to succeed in.
Edit: And lets not forget one should have video editing skills and actually use that on the video and not just have a recording of onself.

@Monorea: Yep, you're absolutely right and I have no video editing skills so I would need to go to school for it maybe before even attempting. Why bother? I like my job anyway. I like how my life is now, I just let it bother me that I don't make enough money and that others will look down on me because I don't want to be a lawyer or a doctor. I don't want to go to school. I don't even want to drive XD

@Kiri: I can't learn to drive, too many impressions and i need to go to educations so i can get a job at some point which i probably won't like and will have most likely have a problem getting compensation for not being able to work more than 50-60% when i do get a job.
And there are online courses and tutorials for video editing so yeah some effort is required but not going to school.
And the doctor and lawyer trope is silly and old that people even think that way still is stupid.

@Monorea: Yes, I agree. People only seem to care about being successful and making good money and if you're not successful, they view you as worthless. What about happiness and enjoyment though? I would rather be a poor person who enjoys what I am doing, then strive to be really successful, but be stressed out all the time. I am not someone that handles stress well. I just need to learn to stop caring about what others think of me.

@Kiri: I gain stress easily and lose it extremely slowly. I easily get stressed or tired enough to get sick, that is why i was talking about only being able to work 50-60%. More than that i start getting sick long and often enough that i can work less than that. I don't want to be succesful i only want to be able to support myself and my lifestyle, right now i can get money from stipends and the state for having aspergers. It is more money than a student has but a lot less than a wage so my life is decent but not comfy.

@Monorea: I only want to support myself too. I work full time but where I work, that is only an average of 35 hours a week and I make $10.23 an hour so not terrible, but not great. I can support myself with that, I think. Just live in a small apartment. Right now, I live with my parents still, but they're on the older side. I don't know what I'll do when they die. I have never taken care of myself before. I don't know how, honestly. I don't drive and don't want to take a bus everywhere, so I know I have to learn how to drive.

@Kiri: I have access to special transport but only in the state i live in and a state is fairly small here in Sweden, it's not the best but better than taking busses and trains. When you start living by yourself have someone check on you every month for the first year otherwise it is easy to just neglect things.

@Peachy: Tired? Need to prepare and make avatar outfit for the event but not in the mood.

@Monorea: Yeah, that's definitely better. I would rather have special transport and just stay in a small state forever than have no transport or have to learn how to drive. I lived in one place for my whole life after all. I never cared to travel. I guess that comes with the personality too. I never liked going on vacation either. I hate change.
