[@paulghignon4092]

It's because it's all probably fake. They claim to make "millions" yet have a net worth of 500k. So either they blew it all on worthless shit, or they're lying because they want to pretend they're wealthy. I'm guessing it's the latter.

It also doesn't hold water in school. Rather than tell kids that, it would be better if they just faced the fact that there are some mean, sh*tty people out there who resent you, step on you to climb the social ladder, or even get their fun by hurting you. And the only effective ways to deal with them are to avoid them or stand up to them. Even if it means getting a beatdown. They'll usually leave you alone after one or two beatdowns. But they'll never leave you alone if you back down or bow down.

One of the big signs it was doomed from the start (for me) is that the twin with the 17 tattoo on his forehead (I think it's Flyysoulja) is always talking about himself. In the Impaulsive Podcast, he only answer questions as one singular person while his brother says "we". "They're hating on ME, it's because they really love ME", "I see the haters", "just hating on ME or whatever", "I'm not really doin' nothin'", "I worked MY ass off", "I'm a star", "I try not to listen to nobody", "I used to listen", "I always try to go for a more melodic sound". And the Tik Tok at the end "I made million dollars myself, just me, doing it myself, alone". Dude legitimately forgot he's supposed to be a duo with his brother. If you only hear him, you would think he's, indeed, alone but he's not.

One of the simplest rules of life: *If you ever decide to get a face tattoo first make sure that you're set for life*

[@Danielson1818]

@Work and Stuff You are definitely confused here. The man said to make sure you are prepared (financially) for life. Basically saying that you don't have many job opportunities when you get a tattoo on your face. That's a lot different than other places. Plenty of people have tattoos on regular body parts, and it doesn't affect their earning potential.

[@MachoMan_Vert]

@Work and Stuff any tattoo? No i don't think so One of my cousins got a tattoo on his upper arm and he got a decent desk job. It won't effect your career as long as it can be easily covered. Unlike a face tattoo that can't be easily covered nor get rid of without leaving a ugly scar on your face.

One advice I'd give to young people anywhere between 12 and 22: It is okay to not be famous. You don't have to be an influencer, a model or a rapper. Just get a job you like and live your life. It'll be more fulfilling in the end.

[@FEE8Tth8BEA8T]

You can't say that just getting a job and living your life will be more fulfilling in the end. That's a completely unfounded general statement that takes nothing about the individual into account. If your dream is to be a model or a rapper then pursue it because you only get one life to give it a go and if you fail and THEN go and get a job I would argue you'll be far more fulfilled than the person who never tried, living with the regret that they never exercised their true potential. The better advice would be to pursue your dream but don't be afraid to carve your own niche instead of being obsessed with being the top position. It's that which causes the problem. Being a model, rapper or influencer is achievable for most if they really want it but to be Kate Moss or Drake is incredibly rare and its the pursuit of this elite level that quickly turns a passion into a shit existence.

[@comradeeverclear4063]

@@FEE8Tth8BEA8T You took the comment WAY out of context. Entering a career field you enjoy doing and living your life to the fullest is the best kind of fulfillment. It's not an unfounded statement, and accepting the fact that even though you may be talented as a model or rapper, you might not MAKE IT as one is a very real scenario you may have to accept. And thats okay. But you do call yourself MegaloTom, so you think your opinions are founded when they're not. They're just emotion based arguments that truly have no grounding in reality.

The only guy who successfully pulled off the "better be known than to be liked" thing is honestly Howard Stern.

Both groups were listening to his program religiously for the exact same reason: they wanted to hear what he will say next.

I disagree. The Island Boys, much like synthol kid, provide a vital service to society. 1. Almost everyone who sees them instantly feels better about themselves. 2. As a warning never to do what they did. In aggregate, they probably rendered happiness roughly equivalent to euphoria for one human lifetime. If that is not success, I don't know what is.

Anyone who says they are a musician who doesn’t listen to other musicians is 100% LYING. The skill of making melodies and songs is one that is honed by listening to hundreds of artists and absorbing melodic flairs and styles on a deep subconscious level, and then making your own material through a combination of these subconscious influences. I got better at songwriting the more I listened to different kinds of music…

[@kempolar9768]

That's a general thing across all industries and media, if you never pay attention to what others are doing you are doomed to at best make the same mistakes that others did.

[@ethandavis8090]

kempolar EXACTLY!!! Couldn’t have said it better than that.

[@Gatorade69]

Nope. The trick is to limit yourself to the same 5 popular bands of a certain genre and not listen to anything else. Obviously I'm just joking. There is a certain well liked KZbinr who is now in a band (they are awful) but whenever he talks about his favorite music It's all the same genre and the top bands of those genres (you can probably find bands shirts of those groups at Walmart). It's no wonder why he is a pretty shitty musician. It's good to enjoy one genre more than others but branch out, expand your tastes and mind.

They have some entertainment factor, they have a unique look, they just don't know how to rap or sing but it's not the first time we see people with less talent make it big. And rapping or singing can still be improved to a point where people see that they put in the work to get better and this way get some respect.

There's nothing wrong with that advice. However, it's important to be realistic about it and that a hobby (or something you like doing) is not the same as being successful enough to live off of it (or anything at all). In fact, it doesn't matter if you're a professional at what you do... Some people do everything right and still come up short. That's just life. Always have a plan B, something to fall back on and a safety net. Don't jump into something you're not ready for and listen to advice given. If you start making money doing what you do, don't quit your job etc. Just do shit the proper way and don't risk everything at once unless you're ready to lose it.

There are actually plenty of examples of whether people turn their 15 minutes of fame into long term financial stability. Peter Andre who had that 90s one hit wonder "Mysterious Girl' faded into obscurity pretty quick but when he turned up years later on one of those British celebrity reality shows we all found out he was rich. He had (on the advice of his father) put all his money into sound long term investiments, like property. So you can turn this type of flash in the pan celebrity into something that will sustain you long term, you just have to not be a pair of fuck wits and actually listen to financial advice
