What kind of streaming are you planning on doing that only takes a few hours a day? I would really like to know, because I would jump all over that in a second.

Because everything I know about the field says the stream itself is only a fraction of the work. Off-camera you still have to do daily content editing, posting across multiple platforms, audience building, community moderation, tech maintenance, analytics, sponsorship outreach, and constant algorithm chasing. That’s 40–60+ hours a week minimum if you’re serious. And even doing all of that right, well over 90–95% of streamers never make livable money. The idea that it just turns into easy income after “getting things rolling” doesn’t match reality at all.

I was in a similar situation and couldn't even qualify for SSDI because I had quit work to be a full time mom, planning on going back to work when my youngest entered Kindergarten. Then I got sick and the pandemic hit all within a year and couldn't qualify for SSDI because I hadn't worked enough in recent years. And even then, my husband's income would disqualify me from disability income. I couldn't get an office job because of my illness and I couldnt get a remote job because of the pandemic. All of the remote jobs were already taken and people were being let go, not being hired. It really sucked. So I started my own micro-press when Kindle Unlimited and other self published books were booming (readership blew up during the pandemic because so many people were out of work and stuck at home with nothing to do.)

I've worked with many Podcasters and Youtubers and TikTokers (promoting my books on BookTok type things and there are tons of Podcasters in my genre that have writers come on to discuss books) and not a single one of them only work for a few hours a day. Even ones that have been well established for years and hire people to do their editing and admin and pipeline work for them.

So unless you're talking about something else when you say "streaming", I honestly don't see how you'll be making a go out of working a few hours a day, unless you're just going to be star talent, can get everything nailed in one or two takes and hire people to do all of the editing, admin, marketing, community moderation, etc...And even then, your content will have to be fresh, immensely popular, and not already in a saturated market for you to gain traction. And then if you do become successful at it, you'll have to give up your SSDI because of income caps.

So, yeah, I'd really like to know what you plan on streaming that will allow you to work for only a few hours a day at.

(PS, the little tidbit you threw in there about how she's not recognizing how great things are under Trump shows that there's a lot more to this than just her not supporting your dreams of becoming a streamer. Between that and the other posts you've made here concerning women and their roles in your life, there's a lot there to unpack. Just an observation, but I'd say you're already well on your way to a divorce. Hopefully that's not the case, but...yeah, I won't be at all surprised if a year from now you're here asking for prayers and talking about how your wife walked out and took the kids with her. I hope I'm wrong. 😕)
