Gamer Superstar - Chapter 163 163 - Rich

Chapter 163  163 – Rich

“What did you think of the taping?” Selena asked me when we finally finished shooting all the scenes in the episode I was in.

Since my character wasn’t that important, I finished my part of the shoot in just two days.

But I realized that even though my character wasn’t that important in the beginning, both my level of acting and my musical talent meant that Angeline was inspired and had some more ideas for Jack to participate more in his scenes in the episode, which increased my participation a little bit.

Which was a great thing for me, because the more I appeared, the more my popularity would rise.

“I found that quite amusing.” I replied as I left the set. “It’s a different feeling than recording videos for MeTube or recording my songs. I feel like I could do something like this more often in the future.”

“I’m glad you liked it.” She replied with satisfaction. “I think your participation in these episodes will not only attract more people to your career, but also possibly open more doors for you to get other acting roles in the future.”

“I hope so.” I said.

Laura was still recording the rest of her episode, and if it was a normal day, I would even stay with her to support her so she could perform well, but I couldn’t do that today.

Since I spent two days recording, the editing part of my videos was behind schedule, and I had to get back home to edit the videos and get them ready to post.

This weekend I’d be doing shows again and I’d be able to charge the price of a D-rank artist, which was great.

According to Selena’s calculations, with my popularity in the bars and my ability to get the crowd going, we could already charge around $600 to $700 per show, which would bring me $1,200 to $1,400 per night.

Not to mention, Selena gave me some news that made me very excited.

“Now that you’re a D-rank artist, I can start looking for a place to do a solo show with you. With your popularity, it won’t be hard to get a few hundred people willing to pay $50 a ticket, which would mean at least $10,000 per show.” Selena explained, causing my eyes to widen.

If I could do one show a week, that would be $40,000 a month!

Of course, that still had to include the investment in the structure, as well as the 20% from AJP, which would reduce my share a lot, but comparing that figure to the little over a thousand dollars I would make per night on normal shows, it was a big difference!

When I got home, I remembered that it had been more than three weeks since I had last received MeTube, and I was curious to know how much I could expect to receive this month.

So I looked at the channel analytics with excitement.

Adding up all the money I would make from vlogs, music videos and views on Spokify, I would make around $50,000 that month!

Thinking about how much money that was and how financially complicated my family was just a few days ago, the thought that all these problems would disappear in a short time made me very happy.

Even more so, considering that I could earn even more from the shows and TV series I’d be doing, it wouldn’t be impossible to earn more than a six-figure monthly salary from now on.

And considering how fast my career was growing, that number could get higher and higher in the future.

I finally understood how the singers and Youtubers of my previous world had so much money to buy so many luxury cars.

If Youtubers were getting paid hundreds of thousands of dollars a month, it wasn’t impossible to buy a $200,000 Lamborghini on one month’s salary.

I’m a big fan of cars, both JDM cars like the NSX that I want to buy, classic American cars like the 1969 Mustang, and luxury sports cars like Lamborghinis, Bugattis, Ferraris, Paganis, but I was aware that all these cars were luxuries that I couldn’t afford yet.

Even though I was getting paid a lot of money, it wouldn’t be a smart move to just spend all my salary on luxury cars and not have any reserves for the future.

So my goal when I started getting so much money was to diversify my money with different investments, I wanted to spread my money around in different investment funds, help my parents build companies for them and take a share as an investor, maybe buy some real estate for the future, and only spend some of that money on luxuries.

It was very tempting to really just take the money I was going to get and spend it all on bullshit, but thinking that the future of my life after an artistic career could go very well or something could go wrong along the way, I felt safer investing my money and having a plan B for my future.

It’s not like I was going to make very little money and only have a small portion of it left for me.

With the amount I was making, even if I took some of that money and invested it, there would still be a lot of money left over that a lot of people only dream about getting every month.

So I was happy.

With the $24,000 I had in my bank account, I only needed another $11,000 to complete the money I needed to buy the car, plus another few thousand dollars to buy the custom parts I wanted for the car.

Even after spending on the car and accessories for the car, there would still be enough money left over for me to invest and easily have some more spending money.

So I was excited.

With my excitement, two weeks passed and the date that the episode I recorded of the TV series would be aired.
