With millions of subscribers and views, Wengie has a huge impact on the youth of today. She quit her full-time corporate job and decided to make her dream of making it big in the world of social media a reality. While quitting a day job is not something most people can do, Wengie decided to take the leap of faith and she sure has made a smart move, influencing the lives of millions in a positive way in the process.
The Meteoric Rise To Freedom
Wengie was initially just that regular corporate employee who had a routine 9 to 5 job, earning a handsome six-figure salary. She occasionally used to blog to let out her creative juices, but nothing for monetary purposes. However, to make a mark for herself in the world of videos was her dream that she just couldn’t ignore. On 9 September 2010, Wengie joined YouTube and bid adieu to her 9 to 5 job. She was serious about video-making and within a short span of time, her YouTube channel accumulated over a million subscribers. Her channel currently has 13.8 million subscribers. She also has two other channels, namely wengieofficial and LifeOfWengie that also has a huge number of followers. She says, “When I first started, I would have imagined hitting a million subscribers as being a sublime and surreal feeling. But it happened much like a birthday: you’re extremely excited, but on the actual day, you feel pretty much the same as you did yesterday.” She loves her fans and doesn’t miss a single opportunity to let them know exactly that. She personally feels that the day she quit her career to make a living on YouTube was the biggest decision of her life.
