Sometimes hundreds of dollars. And often to already rich, successful social celebrities.

Because people have no problem paying for entertainment. Sporting events cost money, movie tickets cost money, cable tv costs money etc.

I have been bored to death at work and then find a twitch channel that really makes the last 2 hours of my day fly by and enjoyable. That's absolutely worth a few bucks in my view.

It seems to bother you. What do you prefer they do with their money?

Personally, I find it silly but I'm much older and it wasn't a thing growing up. I would rather play the game myself, than watch someone else play. Rarely do I even go to a theater.
