Video games are getting more and more popular every year, especially since the best ones can make a very comfortable living doing what they love. Therefore, it is not surprising that most of today's youth try to reach the highest level and compete with the best people in the world for big cash prizes. Although it is a broad field, careers in video games are not reserved only for the best. The most popular live streaming platform Twitch is proof that even those who do not have the status of professional players can, with a little luck and quality content, attract a lot of people and ensure a very high quality life.
