It’s an incredibly oversaturated industry because of that.
Don’t want to be shafted and taken advantaged over? Don’t jump into industries that has 10:1 ratios or more between the number of people wanting those jobs and the number of jobs available, aka “dream jobs”. Don’t be a video games developer. Don’t be an actor. Don’t be a musician. Don’t be an artist. Don’t be a streamer or YouTuber.
If you manage to land good gigs with those, great, but don’t be surprised when the bottom falls out all of a sudden because of some shift in the industry, like, I dunno, AI suddenly gets better at producing tools that make it easier to do your job.
What’s a real dream job? The one where your employer treats you with respect because you’re valuable and hard to replace.

The trades qualify well here (electrician, HVAC, plumber, roofer, etc). They are in extremely high demand, pay well, and if you really can’t find a quality employer, you can generally do them solo.
