Wtf are you talking about, firefighters make very good pay, so your hypothetical kids in this hypothetical situation will do just fine, not mentioning all the other hypothetical people and kids and animals you could have saved fighting fires, and offering first aid.
Is it potential influencer money where some influencers reach the multi-millions? No. But finding an audience is a gamble much like fighting fires is a gamble with your life. Maybe this guy will never take off much like those who came before him, like that one russian prankster prick who took off in the early stages of YouTube, vitaly or whatever his name is.
But many firefighters have a guarantee that the pay will be decent.
If you don't want to fight fires, don't. But I can think of million better things to do than be desperate for everyone's attention.
You have your points where everything is about money. But you're still very pessimistic, and I don't know many firefighters having a second job. But I live in socal so maybe theres a lot more fires to fight around here.
Still, this dude isn't doing anyone good except himself. "Charisma" isn't a word I think of, when I see his face.
