Am I a Good #Promoter and all #Sponsors Serve the Bad, or a Bad Promoter who No Good #Sponsor will Touch?

I ... I don't know. I mean; I say I'm sponsored by CryptoTab Net (because they say they'll speed up my mining browser if you use this link to join my mining network), but ... Let's start-out looking at those words' bases ... 'grains of sand' in their foundations ...

The word “Sponsor” is built on ancient words that mean “to Pledge (Libate Many Times, Pour a Fluid Sacrifice, make a Drink Offering, Bring Wine, Spondee); to Favor, Support, give Assurance, Promise Solemnly, Bondsman, Guarantee, Surety, Godfather (Speak for the one being Baptized)."

#Sponsored #Sponsoring #Sponsorship #Sponsorships 

The word "Promote" is built on ancient words that mean "to Move-, Push Forward (see Pro-)" (you can see how that 'grain of sand' applies both to 'being given a Higher Office of Employment' and 'getting Payers' Messages Out to the Public).

The above-linked OP:

Am I 'Too Good for Sponsorship,' or Are Sponsors 'Too Good to Sponsor Me?'

I guess I was just randomly wondering, 'Why aren't I "rich & famous"'? And the first answer that popped into my head was, "Because no one is paying you to do the stuff you're doing for free."

'Getting paid to do the stuff you'd do for free'---isn't THAT The American Dream? (& yes, The International Dream too, but ...) Aren't we led to believe that every big movie-star, TV-show host, professional athlete, TV-series star, etc. is a millionaire with a luxurious mansion? They say, "it's 'who you know'!" And I don't KNOW that I know anybody with 'connections' that can 'hook me up' like that; but the next thing that comes to mind is 'YouTube.' I mean; nowadays, all the videos posted there proudly announce 'the companies that sponsor them.' I think that means that--though WE'RE watching 'for FREE' (forgetting for-the-moment all the costs we-, the vloggers- & the vlog platform-pay for the Internet-connectivity)--the vloggers wouldn't have made those vlogs if they weren't paid by the companies.

And what are those companies paying-for? The devotion that comes with hypnotic repetition---for example, Nord VPN. Having heard numerous vloggers shout the praises of Nord VPN, chances are good that I'd choose Nord if I needed a VPN (even if other available VPNs offered lower prices & more-personal customer-service). And Nord VPN probably chose those vloggers because they have 'millions' (or 'hundreds-of-thousands,' at least) of watchers on each of their vlog-posts. Hundreds of thousands of us hypnotized watchers. But I frequently hear that vloggers on YouTube are DENIED sponsorship because their videos 'don't fit the algorithm'---forcing them onto 'a network they-themselves sponsor' (well, one that WATCHERS sponsor---like cable-television used to be). ... I'm not good at narcissism---see how I started this out being 'all about me,' but it evolved into a discussion of 'everything else'

Mostly because 'I want to be an integral part of "everything else"---the way Rachel Maddow, Stephen Colbert, Bill Maher, John Green, Stephen King etc. are.

 And--while I'm pretty sure that each of those 'beacons' have had to- and continue to go through a lot of trouble to get/stay where they are--I'm sure I could shine at-least-as-brightly if I had a big sponsor's support!
