Livestreaming

Livestreaming is a unique market. Now a days, what I mainly see on places such a twitch.tv is mainly for people playing video games, mainly league of legends, hearthstone, world of warcraft, counter strike, and dota. The people playing these games on livestream can make money while doing so as well. They can have users pay a subscription fee and Streamers can offer subscriber specific content and contests. THey as make money off playing ads during their stream. This kind of makes being a popular streamer a lucrative business for those people. On the extreme end of the spectrum, there is a Korean woman who makes over 9,000 dollars a month streaming herself eating massive meals or 3 hours a day. This is mainly because of Korean cultural aspects that make eating alone kind of looked down upon. If I were to get paid money to do things like this, I definitely think I would be a happy person.

Here is a video with an example of the Korean Woman's meals: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z3oCKC72DMk
