Toys or things like these are trend based and whoever capitalizes on the wave benefits from it. But there really is no point. It's like the new playdoh I guess? Makes me think of fidget spinners. They just take off because people in that age group tend to follow trends and persistently ask for it
Exactly. It's the new playdough. And with young adolescents it becomes a prized posession: my slime is shinier than yours. Sort of like pogs were in the late 90s. Remember pogs? LOL
basically it boils down to, americans love wasting world resources on 'meh' things. All that Elmer's glue hurts to see as most of it will be disposed unethically.

I get what you're saying, but remember his market is 8 year old girls. This is a toy for them. You might say that is terrible today but just the squidging gets kids thinking about the material and how morphs etc.
His market is kids and they will keep on growing By the time this trend will diminish he would have already made so much that he could live forever his life by just investing
it helps with anxiety for some people, it helps with keeping your hands busy if you touch a lot of things, and the texture depends on what *type* of slime you buy and like. i myself really like slime because of the texture, and because it keeps my hands busy. while yes, its a fun toy for kids, the majority of people whom buy the slime are not children, i believe. another thing, is ive noticed a lot of neurodivergent people (noticeably ADHD and Autism) really like slime. and when you said eye-catching before you mix it, yes it is. and even after you mix it. it just depends on what type of slime it is. because there are very pretty colors, *AFTER* you mix the slime!
During the height of the trend there were several successful slime shops in Europe...glue is different in different countries and so there was a lot of people ordering overseas to try new textures 🤷♀️
This guy is awesome. He owns his own slime business, and he's not nearly as slimy as the jokers selling get rich quick courses. You're killing it Jacob!
@@autumnplayzrobloxx9205 not a lot if you would consider the total amount of slime sellers, the percentage is very low for those who use it. It’s easy to break during shipping and get a lot of complaints from the buyers
Out of all plastic use slime businesses probably don't have the largest impact compared to amazon ebay and so many other stores literally there is plastic everywhere. Slime plays a part but apart from packaging and the add ins slime itself is biodegradable as it is mainly glue with a liquid actuvator. Something such as slime cannot compare to the plastic packaging purchased on a larger scale in stores and eapecially plastic water bottles.
The thing is, at any day slime can just drop and him using a lot of his money on supplies such as glue, containers, food colouring, toppings, activator, etc. then he could become bankrupt because the money he has, he spends on basic needs. And having a million dollars, I don’t expect him to have such a small house… so it’s a lot of bills!
It's a sensory toy, basically. They smell nice, look pretty, feel good to stretch and play with, and make fun noises when you squeeze them tightly. You can't eat them... but that's the other 4 senses being appealed to, right there.
Dear parents : 1. Its kind of useless, whats the use of slime or how do you play with it? Its to relieve stress and very fun to play with, it also looks pretty. 2. Ew! It must be very sticky right? It depends. Sometimes the slime can be poorly made and it becomes sticky, while something like Slime Obsidian produces good quality slimes and he makes sure they don't stick to the persons hand. Slimes can also melt during shipping or after a very long time of not playing, which in this case you can reactivate it with activator (note that it is borax) or throw it out. 3. Wait, it's eco friendly right? Elmers glue (that is the main ingredient to slime) is biodegradable, the glitters/sprinkles/beads/whatever the small things in the slimes are most likely eco friendly, the containers can be used for something else and the miniture items can be for your kids school projects!

It can relieve stress ,and they are pleasing looking to the eyes , I guess that's why they sell.
It's also feels good to play with, basically a toy but it's for every age range ,many adults also play with this
He probably is looking to expand his market for Kids and or investing the money in stock and realestate. That would be what I would do.
I'm just curious here. Why do people like to buy them? It's beautiful,eye catching at first before you start mixing them up...
The feel in your hands and the sounds it makes are very therapeutic
