..to be unimpressed about wealthy YouTubers doing living on £1 for a day challenge??

[RebeccaBunchLawyer]

So, I firstly will admit to watching and enjoying many a Youtuber- for ideas, escapism etc.

But, when the partner of a VERY successful Youtuber (let’s call her Z) who is also a millionaire, does a challenge to live on £1 for 24 hours and completes said challenge zipping around town in a £50,000 car, blags free stuff from a famous donut shop (which he eventually wastes anyway!) and then does a bit of ridiculous “personal shopping” on day of challenge, like come on, come on!!

I hate millionaires doing this type of challenge, NOT to raise awareness of how many poor families live every day, but for a challenge: a silly YouTube video which will- ironically- then earn them several thousand pounds.

Some of us have actually had to do this “live on £1 for 24 hours”, for real. Not to earn ourselves dosh, which we then wouldn’t even consider donating to those in need.

For all too many, this is their real life.

I simply don’t watch such crap, they’re all vacuous.

You know the internet is a limited resource and wasting it watch this shit is depleting our supplies.

Internet doesnt grow on trees!

How does £1 for 24 hours work? Many people can go a,day without spending money providing we've got some basic food in and electricity on the meter. Surely the harder thing is living on a pound a day for weeks, months etc. Suggest to Z they do it for a month!

Update: Alfie Deyes has now issued a grovelling apology re the way he handled the £1 for 24 hours challenge.

Apologies for not replying, but have been travelling.
