      all celebrities, including athletes, were/are always media workers aerosmith made more money from guitar hero than from any of their albums it's interesting to think about, and there are some pretty clear implications to me re: making a living "online"https://twitter.com/tanayj/status/1214034607852720128 …

      Cristiano Ronaldo was the highest earner on Instagram in 2019, making over $45M from sponsored posts per Buzz Bingo. That's more than he makes from playing football – his pay at Juventus is around $33M 🤯

      Would love to hear what your list of implications is. I'll give everyone one, which I don't think is contingent on self-identification as a celebrity or media worker: there is likely no asset you own or will soon own as valuable as an email list of people who like your stuff.

          we've talked about this but always worth repeating. I find myself going back to a very early childhood thought I loved books, games, movies, etc – "media" in short – and the simple fact that you can make stuff and put it "out there" blew my mind...https://twitter.com/visakanv/status/1163177098904649728 …

          one of the coolest things about 7 year old visa was that he saw the WWW and almost immediately thought, in less articulate terms, "I have to get on it. it is the most obviously important thing I should do with my life. get online and post stuff. it is my ticket to freedom" https://twitter.com/paul_r_doherty/status/1162903579683745792 …

          I think the way I think about this is very platform-agnostic, tools-agnostic, everything-agnostic. it's this: there are billions of people in the world I just need a few thousand of the right people. how I reach them isn't ~~~really~~~ importanthttps://twitter.com/visakanv/status/1163179394556297217 …
