"Pretty people have been making more than the average chump (like me) for a
long time.
It’s an unfair advantage given to them by nature. However, something unnatural
is coming to take away their edge.
I’m not just writing this out of spite — there’s some research to back this
claim. Apparently, people see attractive folks as more trustworthy, so lookers
are more likely to get promoted (and hired in the first place.)
According to a report from the Wall Street Journal, attractive people make
about $230,000 more than Average Joes over their lifespan.
And that’s just the average. There’s no doubt that good-looking streamers can
make some serious bank, mostly just for looking good. (OnlyFans is a good
example of how this works. Take a look at the top ten earners on that platform
— do you see any ugly people?)
My point is, if two people — one hot and the other meh — recorded videos of
themselves balancing a pencil on their nose, which do you think would earn more
from views?"
