If you enjoy it, that's good. But not everyone enjoys it and that's why STEM has lower praticipation from females and that's what we are discussing here.

I didn't say millionaire anywhere. Many modeling gigs pay more than entry level median salaries in STEM.

It's about efforts vs reward. People in STEM require years of education compared to posting a product review on Instgram which doesn't even require a high school certificate.

Don't compare it to Pro football players either which is very risky and requires years of training and money.
