Streaming star RaKai has explained why he believes streaming is a harder job than a regular 9-to-5, as the long-standing debate rumbles on.
Even though content creation and streaming have become a legitimate career choice for some, it’s still looked at in a different lens when it comes to the real world. Some streamers have revealed that they’ve struggled to get mortgage approvals and new bank accounts because of how their income works.
There has also been a long-standing debate about what’s harder, being a content creator or someone who works a regular 9-to-5 job. Plenty of streamers have weighed in on this in the past, saying their job is harder than most.
PlaqueBoyMax came under fire for saying it is a “harder” job in “certain ways. Though, Kai Cenat doesn’t see it that way, calling people “idiots” if they think streaming is a more strenuous job.

RaKai, who has boomed in popularity while streaming closely to Kai, disagrees, though, claiming that streaming is definitely the harder job.
“It’s hard to blow up. Then, when you blow up, you have to keep it up. That s*it mad hard,” he said.
“9-to-5, you go to McDonald’s, you just put the fries in the bag, hand it to them, and call it a day. You know what I’m saying, bro? There’s no thinking or none of that.”
RaKai agreed with his fellow streamers that it’s “easier” to be told what to do, rather than having to figure things out for yourself.
