“I’d be lucky if I get, like, maybe $200,” in commissions from affiliate partnerships, travel blogger Christine Ka’aloa says

Travel blogger Christine Ka’aloa has posted a couple of new videos in recent weeks to her YouTube channel, which has been starved for content.

Instead of seeing her take an Arctic road trip or show how to use a squat toilet, her 151,000 subscribers got a download on what it’s like to be a globe-trotting influencer during lockdowns.

Time to get a real life and job maybe?

Now they need to get a real job

Get a job

Truly, my heart bleeds for this woman. As it does for all influencers.

I assume she has rich parents (most of these people do). She’ll be fine.

Talk about a career where you feel like you’re always on the precipice of collapse. The ultimate risk/reward job. It’s already insanity the amount of money some of these content creators can make. In this fickle, short lived trend world, popularity is fleeting. Good luck

I think grocery stores are still hiring!

Get a real job

How long would this pandemic last we don't know. But for sure travel, sports, fashion and music industries, etc. Will suffer for quite some time.

Warehouses, grocery stores, first responders, food deliveries... real jobs are out there. Posing on social media for popularity & free stuff was never going to bea sustainable career model. endofinfluencers

Sad, just kidding don't care. Let's talk barbers and stylists. Let's talk seniors depending on their 401s and IRAs or draining their savings to take of 'influencers'

Wait! what! a no-value add job isn’t able to generate income. While they have excelled at social media, have any of them taught themselves useful skills with remote learning. It’s easy to throw stones with everyone else in the garden but to build a greenhouse takes real skill.

It’s ok , the next meta will have dildos

Kind of interesting getting the various stories about the wide range of professions affected but seriously this has been posted at least three times by the WSJ.

Maybe I can help influence this young lady: Get a real job!

I’d double those earnings if they can get me some chiccy nuggies

I could never understand the influencer thing. It’s just like more pimped out commercials

You started it.

Who cares

I hope they go BK.

99% of those people were morons anyway

Hope she saved some of the money she did make.

An influencer? 🤣😂🤣 When you follow an influencer you really must have no idea what you must do wiht you're live. And ... you're stuppid when you do what they advise you, because it will cost you (A LOT OF) money. Wake up and grow up.

No one needed travel hacks before!

NoMasks ConstitutionOverCoronavirus

oh no. and here I thought the important jobs in the economy were safe from the pandemic

Doesn’t sound like a picture perfect business model.

Life bro

Just go away and practice your narcissism somewhere else

The influencer thing is so ridiculous anyways and I am glad they are taking a hit. Welcome to reality with the rest of us where you don’t matter near as much as you think

A silver lining in all this mess.

So there is a silver lining to everything

🎻

Not a real job anyway

boo hoo..

So sad, now do a story on barbers and hair stylists.

Tough shit

Yes, jet setting celebrities are definitely the worst off victims here.

Before retiring into a climate-changed hellscape, we recommend millennials build resilient careers with longevity, for instance as midwife, lobsterman, or cackling crone of the woods skilled with medicinal herbs and fungi.

Wow... It’s almost like people are focusing on things that matter

Start an OnlyFans. I suspect you’ll do very well. Just go niche.

LMAO nobody gives a flying fuck

Good. Insane Bollox.

Curious, How much can a Travel influencer Make?

Poor things.

Somehow, I’m not feeling sorry for people like this who REALLY don’t have a job. What they do is bullshit.

Why even report? They’re the ones putting journalist out of a job.

As a landlord & private business owner, the executive orders of NYGovCuomo force me to supply FREE rent, essentially acting as an extension of government. I like my tenants, but I’m not rich. If renters get a free pass, where’s the help for landlords? Where’s the equality?

Down from $250,69

She’s video blogging and wearing a mask 🤣.

It will become more important to read these stories soon . . .

There’s always pornhub

Traveling through other people's money. Glad these people can't scam anymore. Do something productive, instead of being free loaders.

That is OK. They should really get real jobs.

F

WHAT THE FUCK IS A TRAVEL INFLUENCER?

This is why you save money.

Boo bloody hoo

Is she wearing a mask while doing a video interview? Have we gone this far down the rabbit hole?

Just go sell your tits online then.. blogger😂

Get a real job then homie

NOOOO! Not the TRAVEL INFLUENCERS!!! Anyone but them! Is there no god?!?

Ohhh nooo 😒😒😒😄😄😄

Golly, maybe being an, 'influencer' isn't really a, you know, job?

Respecto

Not sure why we should care about this...

$200 too much

Well no sht not everybody can make a living on blogs.

*OnlyFans has entered the chat*

There is a huge line of people I would feel bad for before travel influencers

Reviews depending on $$$ and getting freebies. Blackmailers feeding on hard work of others. Leeches and side-effect of the social media era enabling bubblehead cowards giving 'reviews' behind the safety of their phones. It'll be good to clear some of this viral infestation.

Time to job?

She can thank China XiJinping CCP CCPChina & who

Good

Ah, yeah / join the club. You’re not the only person in the world. We don’t want to hear it. We want to hear what you’re doing about it.

Huh, I'm so sorry. No Profit(s) in helping Illinoisans getting T-F-O-O-Illinois? Shocking! Try focusing your efforts on helping Illinoisans FLEE!!!!!

Should of stuck to meme trappin

Welcome to the real world of middle class America.

It Disrupts everyone

Time to get a real job.

the gig and web economy will always be smoke and mirrors for the little person

Spoiled, traveling millennial is not a real job anyway

Get a real job

Taking on a job like this is essentially a sales job. You hock their product, they peel some off for you in the backend. While the booming economy would indicate that this is a sustainable biz model, I think millennials are fast coming to terms that utopia has been cancelled.

Just here for the comments

Nice click bait WSJ. Jacking directly into human amygdala and disgust centers now. You are owned by Rupert Murdoch right? His Australian tabloid trashiness continues.

Get a damn job!

Another relatable story.

Я верю вам

These are the type of guys who watch your videos. And they watch it on mute.

poor baby!! here are some crocodile tears for ya.... feel SOOO sorry for you,,,

Too bad.

pour one out for all the loads out there. Get a real job

damn it might be time to start actually working then

Time to start doing something useful for society.

Sad news is coming 😥

Lolololol
