Not entirely sure what the point of your comment is.
However, most influencers/"content creators” aren’t wealthy. Only the top of the top. I can’t tell you the percentage, but I know for a fact many of them are compensated only in paid travel and accommodation when traveling to promote whatever they’re paid to promote. They don’t get actual money. I know because there’s an influencer in my partner’s extended family who was pushed into the “business” very young by their parent.
There are also many who earn just enough as if they were working a regular 9-5 job. And if their viewership drops — which it usually does — they’re fucked.
