Episode notes

Becoming a successful full-time influencer is challenging as the typical influencer's earnings are declining, with a significant portion making $15,000 or less. The golden age of influencing seems to be fading, as social media companies have reduced payouts to creators, brands are more selective with sponsorships, and algorithm changes have made it harder to be discovered. This scenario makes it tough for influencers to attain a middle-class living solely from their influencing career.

Episode 347: Neal and Toby discuss Boeing's CEO testifying before Congress and the latest accusation from a whistleblower saying the company hid faulty parts. Plus, troubled EV company Fisker finally files for bankruptcy and why is the US Government suing Adobe? Hint: it could have to do with their hidden subscription fees. Then the guys reflect on one year since the Titan Submersible implosion and the biggest lessons learned. Next up a look into how much social media influencers actually make. And finally, why one photographer submitted a real photo to an AI photography competition.
