2. LOVE everything in this video except the idea that a vapid influencer should share any geo-political-historical perspectives. Leave that to the actual experts. The only exception is if influencer is literally in the MIDDLE Of a massive earthquake, or flooded lake scenario, personally, where they are probably going to pop out of vapid-ville and bring in reality. Otherwise I strongly disagree that an influencer in some ridiculous lifestyle "owes" their audience their views on things that actually matter. Nor do I think audience members want vapid influencer news opinions. Let's keep our entertainment, entertaining escapism, and our news, actual news. My two cents plus inflation… 😉

3. The comparison between MLM and influencer is so spot on, but you missed a key similarity: connection. I would never have spent that much money on make-up, but my friend was a Mary Kay rep. You are right, the ready access and the perceived openness/vulnerability of the influencers creates a parasocial relationship that is part of the influence for many. Yes, lifestyle, but also, I should buy what my pocket friend tells me because she gets me and maybe this helps my pocket friend.

4. All comes down to it's much easier to make money and be financially secure if you come from money. There are no surprises there. When i ask people who have 2 – 3 properties before the age of 40, they are renting out. The answer normally is i have well off parents or i inhereted money. That allowed them to make a move when interest rates were low, securing multiple pieces of real estate. The rest of us had to save a deposit for our very first, and by then, the lower interest rate opportunities were gone pretty much for good. I worked three jobs lived out of home during Uni and lived off noodles

5. Wait wait little thing, gymnastics is usually poor girls. In the past anyway. Idk about now.

6. Gen Xer I've been on Facebook since 2007 but didn't get on IG and TikTok until 2023/24 and lasted about 3 months on each before I couldn't take them anymore and deleted both. YouTube has replaced my TV and Netflix watching, and ideally would love to also cut down and hopefully will but IMO Facebook and YouTube are not even close to the toxic and addictive nature of IG and TikTok. And social media didn't exist until I was in my late 20s and I still got sucked in. Those who have never known a world without social media and smart phones and if they had narcissistic parents were online from when they came out of the womb I feel so sorry for. What chance do they have 😢

7. So happy to see Hannah on your channel! I've been bingeing her content AND yours for the last few months and I'm obsessed 😅

8. The pandemic isn't over

9. I love that you had Hannah Alonzo on! I love her videos. this is my first video I’ve seen of yours and I really love the important information you have to share and the organized way in which you deliver it as well! subscribed! 🌟

10. Ah, yes….Taylor Lorenz. A real journalist. 😂

11. Fortunately, i never heard of any of those influencers you mentioned.
    I would never follow them, they seem boring.

12. this is the only channel where i can find these types of ideas and questions, great vid!! (I left social media about a year ago and seeing all the likeminded people in the comments is reallly encouraging and validating)

13. Another great video from this amazing channel!

14. Side note: I do absolutely not want any of these people to make political content, it is not their job, it is pointless. That is not their expertise. If you want political content, follow political creators. Never ask Vanessa Hudgens for her opinion on Gaza. (Also, there are humanitarian crises in many places, not just Gaza, and there are worse crises even. For the love of God, stop asking people on their opinion on Gaza. They all know nothing.)

15. My actual social media shows almost one going on vacation because they literally can’t.

16. 14:16 I do agree with the points, but why travelling is such a wealth indicator for US citizens? I mean, my third world coutry very middle class family traveled the world extensively and we must to pay for our visas unlike US passport holders. May be it's a stage of comfort that must be a catalisator? Bc we took horrendous overnight trains in China, slept in busses in EU and wore every item in our bags bc my father refused to pay extra for a luggage in flights. It's a bit bothersome but def did family closer, plus we actually have seen the world 😂

17. I’m curious. Do people not talk about peer pressure anymore? Seems like a lot of insecure people

18. I'm so happy to see Hannah in this video!!

19. I don't have anything to say, just commenting to increase engagement. Great video!

    If anyone wants to reply to this comment for the same reason, I assume that helps as well.

20. I do sincerely enjoy this channel and appreciate the financial advice, but I am becoming increasingly perplexed at TFD's steadfast refusal to advocate in any fashion for simply getting rid of social media accounts as a solution. So many of the problems the channel very thoroughly documents are caused almost entirely by social media consumption, and can be mitigated or eliminated almost entirely by simply opting out of that world. I realize the effort is to advocate for a more thoughtful and sustainable way to engage with this material, but teetotal abstinence may be a better solution for some, and discussing it in some detail may be helpful.

    Nonetheless, I remain an enthusiastic subscriber to the channel and will continue to watch!

21. Really nice to see Hannah in your video. Her videos are amazing.

22. I am so glad I watched this to the end. I AM a content creator and I DO use affiliate marketing as one of my income streams. But when you got to the part about is my whole value add telling people to buy things I was able to breath. I’m in no way putting my feet up on a coffee table made of cash but I have created a job that allows me to communicate and hopefully encourage and create community. As usual those who need to hear this will never even consider what you’re saying and you’ve given ME a lot to think about especially in terms of making sure I am even MORE diligent about total transparency and disclosure. Thank you for being a well resourced and intelligent place on the internet.❤

23. The other thing is the especially dodgy people going to dubai as theres a lot of traficking for it

24. Taylor Lorenz is not a credible source, was enjoying the video until then.

25. What I've learned today: I'm a terrible influencer.

26. Chelsea, The Financial Diet is such a breath of fresh air. I absolutely NEEDED to see this video right now. Thank you for all that you do with this channel. It's helping more people than you know.

27. Stop giving these influencers attention. There, problem solved.

28. Is your ac broken? Why are you so sweaty?

29. Over the decades: “I wanna be a movie star.” > “I wanna be a rock star.” > “I wanna be a pop star.” > “I wanna be an influencer.” = They’re all essentially saying “I wanna be a celebrity.”

    Also over the decades: “We need to watch out for X encouraging us to over consume and feel bad about ourselves.” With X being keeping up with the Joneses/our neighbors > Photoshopped fashion and lifestyle magazines > then Pinterest > then broader social media.

    Also, we keep going in a cycle of enjoying our various types of celebrities as an escape from reality and a way to enjoy a magical dream (in this phase we don’t want them to talk about major world events) to getting fed up with how unattainable the dream they are showing is (in this phase we criticize them for not talking about major world events). And, the audience is often somewhere in flux between these two phases, so it’s hard to please everyone.

    As someone who grew up in the last heydays of fashion magazines reigning supreme, I appreciate the lessons I have been given of try to recognize what I am attempting to fill my heart with each day, recognize when I’m feeling temptation and FOMO, enjoy celebrities as entertainment, and enjoy crafting my own life outside of trends. Still hard, though, when I’m having a difficult time in life and I crave the feeling of control that choosing and buying an item gives me, albeit for a short time.

30. Celebrities can’t say a THING about elections, politics or foreign affairs, because they devoted themselves to a public, and that people (that PAY their rent) are very diverse (politicly, socially, etc), and would be very stu p id on their part, to make any of them mad because of an opinion, YOUR opinion, that is not an all-welcome opinion. Just common sense. So, if you’re bitter towards people with a huge platform that don’t speak their minds on everything, that’s not bitterness, that’s envy. Good luck.

31. I enjoy your content quite a bit, but I also think it's sad that society needs an hour-long video explaining why social media influencing is problematic. Social media is not real, and we were never meant to fashion our lives after what we see there. Maybe it's middle age, but I really feel like I'm living in the Twilight Zone sometimes.

32. an "expert" says that influencers and MLMs are the same because they both sell products?

33. Yay Hannah!!

34. Umsustainable excess fuels our economy and will also lead to the downfall of many

35. Why should influencers speak about timely news topics though? Maybe their audience isn't interested in these topics, or they come to the influencer's site to escape such topics.

36. Omg my favorit Anti-MLM YouTuber together with my favorit Finance Channel ❤❤

37. !! we don't need and shouldn't want social media influencers influencing politics, but that is already happening. social media influencers and celebrities are now endorsing political candidates, lobbying for legislation, and there are plus sides to that but it is also something russia built troll farms for the explicit reason of exploiting, which led to the extreme polarization of our political system and the election of donald trump. the "speaking out" people might imagine an influencer should be doing would most likely be paid for. and the influencers they see "doing good" by "speaking out" are probably being paid. it's just another way for money to influence politics.
