There's nothing controversial about earning a living from Youtube. You, and Crashpunk completely misconstrued that entire conversation.
But no, it isn't a "real job." Nothing creative is. That doesn't mean that it isn't worth while to do, or that it doesn't take effort, but basically, if you love doing it, it isn't a job. My objection was only ever making Youtubers out to be these great martyrs who are deeply important people, doing the Lord's work, while the rest of us, who took more realistic routes to ensure a home for our children, are told that we lack their bravery. That is what I objected to.
And I never said that Youtubing was your personal dream, Varrok.

Then yeah I pretty much agree with everything there, besides the "if you love doing it, it isn't a job" part. I think it's a job if you're earning money from doing work, no matter what the work is or whether you enjoy it or not.
