Your friend might have to look for how to improve the videos or look for different opportunities.

I didn't say everyone can do it.

I'm talking about opportunities, which also the article was talking about. The opportunities are equivalent but may not be the same gig.

"You too can become an NBA player!"

You have the opportunity if you work hard enough. Isn't it incredible ; )

But not everyone can do it.

Wait -- if not everyone can do it, then is it really an opportunity? Or only for "those who can"?

I didn't say that.

Rather to find opportunity that suitable for you.

opportunity are there for everyone but a one particular gig may not be for everyone. Some suitable for being youtuber, some suitable for instagram model, some suitable to be game streamer, etc. These gig doesn't exist back in 1990, old people today shouldn't compare it the gig back in 1990, the economy are always evolving.

The opportunities you talk about are much like the opportunities to be an actor on television, they are few and far between compared to the amount of people who want those jobs. If the market supports 6000 Youtube stars and 100,000 people want to be Youtube stars your pep talk is naive.

The opportunities I talked about is of course only same example, certainly not everything there is.
