hahah. It's probably only in Japan could someone be successful in that endeavor. Any place else, more would be expected or the payment would be so low that it wouldn't be worth it.

He started in 2018 and he's had more than 3000 'jobs' so far.

Could be a very demanding job.

My guess is that you'd want to be in a big city or high populace metropolitan area. I'm guessing the guy is in Tokyo or one of the big cities in Japan. I wonder how much he makes.

That's the problem for potential professionals. Us amateurs doing nothing for free have saturated the market. Someone charging for it would have to do nothing better to justify the fee, and I assure you, there's no one who does nothing better than me.
