Ninja opens up about the downside to wealth & fame During the May Twitch Q&A, one fan asked Ninja how it felt to be famous. \u201cNot good,\u201d he exclaimed before explaining, \u201cMoney\u2019s great, but even then money can\u2019t buy happiness. Look, there are positives and negatives to everything in life. You guys don\u2019t understand. If you have money, 90% of the time or more, you sacrifice a lot. Relationships, family, time, love, friendships.\u201d The Twitch streamer followed up and revealed how wealth can also complicate and even ruin close relationships with friends and family. \u201cAnd then you have that money, and guess what now you don\u2019t know who to trust. You can\u2019t trust anyone. Who are your real friends? Who is your real family?\u201d the entertainer said.
