But I should state if they raise their pricing to reflect the median AND make easy street work 80,000$ a week will be the results (these are rough estimates of course it might be more or less).
How? With two gigs per week wouldn't that make it more like 40k? I might be missing something, though?

But I somewhat disagree with you on being a brain dead easy career. Its straight forward maybe but not necessarily easy. I think its very deceptive in the sense that you can get promoted off one gig no matter what level you are if you do the requirements. But you have to realize that you need to level the 5 skills necessary for the career up to 7 and do your daily tasks (which admittedly are not hard) to progress. AND you can only progress once every 3 days. Of course you can do none of these things but you will eventually fail in one area by pigeon holing yourself into only taking gigs you have the skills for which eventually results in a pay cut in an already payment dry career. Its takes a lot of babysitting one sim to excel and then you might have a family too!
Just my opinion however not necessarily fact :smile:
That's fair, an opinion is an opinion and I see where you're coming from. But there were a few reasons that I label the career as easy.
First, although they have a lot of skills to train, they get so much time off from gigs to work on those skills that I don't even see it as a disadvantage. As for the actual gigs themselves, they're practically the same throughout the entire career. Every day on the job is just mindless pointing and clicking. It doesn't take very long, either. While I played through the career there wasn't one day that I didn't finish the job hours ahead of schedule, even before I got the perk to skip costume and makeup.
Looking at the Doctor career, as an example, there was just way less decision-making and consequence. In that career I had to take mental notes and make observations in order to complete my goals for the day. I'd stay late practically every day and barely finish the goals. It makes acting feel so easy to me in comparison. If Actors were making 6-8x what Doctors make with the job being as simple as it is, playing a Doctor would feel like such an unsatisfying use of my time.
Of course, the Doctor career is probably one of, if not the hardest in the game so it's probably not the most fair comparison to make... but I think even certain rabbit hole or work from home careers are more difficult than acting is.
