I’ve decided to become an #influencer. How hard can it be? | Sofie Hagen

I know it's the height of toxic capitalism, but you get free stuff and money - so what's not to like? Maybe the fact it's really difficult

For the past two years, I have been trying really hard to become an #influencer. I just wanted to #influence people to live their best lives, to find their inner strength and - OK, I wanted free stuff. If you can't beat it, join it. Capitalism, that is.

Since I have 100,000 followers on Instagram who listen to what I say, to whom I often recommend my favourite products and services, why not double-check if the brands want to pay me to do so? I would rather they pay me than someone who isn't me. What I am saying is: I wanted to do the very easy job of #influencing and get lots of money for it.
