苦しみの資産化 ── なぜ不幸はYouTubeで価値を持つのか
from ビジネス日本語講座
What happens when human suffering becomes an asset? In traditional accounting, humiliation, loneliness, unemployment, and painful memories have no monetary value. But on YouTube, those same experiences can generate views, donations, subscribers, and advertising revenue. In this episode, I explore the strange economics of turning personal suffering into content. The most disturbing possibility is that success may create a conflict: you want to escape your suffering, but your audience may value you precisely because you suffer. When unhappiness becomes profitable, recovery can reduce your market value. Perhaps some parts of life should simply remain outside the market.
