You know what I think is cool? Art. Art in all forms. I especially love 2D art, and visiting museums and galleries to get access to all of this cool art. I also love going to art shows to support more underground artists who are perhaps not as well-known. My best friend is one of these underground artists. She paints abstract pieces and hangs them up in a warehouse for people to see with a small fee that ultimately pays her rent. It’s an interesting business model.

I’ve also been following this 2D animation company operating in Melbourne for a little while. They do some great work, and make some awesome short films that they post on the internet. I’ve been in contact with the owner of this company and apparently, they want to host a screening for the first time and see how it goes. I think that’s a brilliant idea. They’ve already got a decent following on social media and most of their fans seem to be local, so I can imagine a lot of them turning up for the event especially if there’s free food.

They’re a bit hesitant because they’re a small company and there would be a lot of planning and potential costs involved in hosting such an event. They’ve thought about transitioning to corporate video production because it has the potential to earn them more. I mean, I’ll support them no matter what they do since their team is filled with really kind and talented people, but I am partial to the 2D animation since that was what brought me to their company in the first place and has held my attention for the past couple of years. I have a friend who does catering professionally, so maybe I could ask them to help with the food challenge at a slightly more affordable price than usual? I shall find out!

The best part about being an influencer is that I don’t have to work on a regular schedule. I can wake up after midday and still get all my work done. I can go to sleep in the afternoon and get work done in the early hours of the morning, before the sun even rises. It’s totally up to me. I also have been making a ton of money recently, which is kind of crazy because when I was working retail I was barely scraping by. I actually have enough money now to hire the best video production and editing company Melbourne currently has, which streamlines my process even more by taking the most arduous and boring work off my shoulders.

Now, I just get to stand in front of the camera and talk and look pretty, while occasionally coming up with a few great ideas. None of this tedious editing. And thank goodness for that, because it was really starting to get on my nerves. I’m not all that good at it either, and I think the quality of my videos has now improved with their expertise. I was surprised to learn that video post-production services are actually a lot more affordable than I have always thought.

Once again, it’s not very fair for them, that I am making so much while they do the hard work. But that is the way of the world, and I must take advantage of it. That was how it worked when I was in retail, and I suffered then, folding clothes day in and day out and talking to customers who were kind to my face and then literally defaced the changing rooms. But with the flip of a coin, I am now on the other side. I hope that this year after taking in my profits I have made enough money to donate a large portion to charity. If I’m going to be rich, I want to be an ethical rich person.
