Millionaires & Rollerblades
Rollerblades should be in your creative kit.
What’s Below:
💰 $23M by 22… and now he wants free work?!
📢 Should you be making content? (Yes, but…)
🎬 Actors are Selling Homes Now?! (And it’s just… weird)
💰 He Made $23M by Age 22… And Now He Wants You to Work for Free?
WTF? Seriously.
Razvan Paraschiv, a big YouTuber, is hiring an editor—but here’s the catch: he’s not paying. Instead, he’s running a contest where editors have to work their asses off just to prove they deserve the job.
And people are pissed.
They see another big-money influencer asking for handouts. But is that really what’s happening? Or is this just… a tryout?
Let’s be real—we’ve all worked for free before. Pulled all-nighters. Edited till sunrise. And no, we didn’t get extra pay for it. But we did it because we loved creating. Because we knew that to get the work, we had to prove we could do the work.
📢 Start Making Content. Now.
Alright, so everyone and their pet ferret is making content. Should you?
Short answer: Yes.
Longer answer: Yes, but only if you know why.
Content isn’t just videos. It’s writing, photos, podcasts, live streams—it’s whatever helps you get your message across.
The key? Figure out why you’re creating before you start.
Your audience matters. Your message matters. Whether you’re a global brand or a one-person show, content is your best friend—if you play it right.
🎬 Actors Are Selling Homes Now… And It’s Just Weird
“With this particular set of skills, you can sell your home faster.”
No, not really. But apparently, Liam Neeson thinks so.
Or at least that’s what he’s trying to do in a cheesy ‘Taken’-style real estate ad to help his friends sell their house. Yeah, you read that right.
Listen, we get it—celebrity endorsements sell. But this is just… strange. Why is Liam Neeson narrating a home listing video? And why is he doing it in the same voice he used to threaten European kidnappers?
Who signed off on this?
We love a good laugh, but this feels like a cringey SNL sketch that went too far.
If actors are going to do real estate ads, please—make them better than this. Put some heart into it. Or at least some believable dialogue.
But hey, maybe it works. Maybe some fanboy will buy the house just to say Liam Neeson told him to. And if that happens, we’ll be the first to admit we were wrong.
Until then, no more actors in cheesy real estate ads. Please.
