I'll give you a serious answer, OP. Is it worth it? It all depends on what you're looking for. If you're lonely and looking for fanboys, start small by posting pics on instagram and twitter. You can find friends that way and simps will say nice things about you. Once you take the step to start making ASMR videos on YouTube, you're stepping out onto the world's stage. The internet loves and hates people in a chaotic manner. You might upload a video and everyone instantly falls in love with you. You might upload a video and nobody will give a flying fuck that you exist. It can't be controlled. It's a gamble. A risk. Once the train leaves the station though, you're in for the ride. I regretfully point to someone like Cloveress as an example. She made a video eating a banana and it went viral. Blew up! Instant e-fame. Months later she was cruising around Hollywood in a limo with a group of other thots. Got hooked on drugs. Went crazy. Eventually on the verge of homelessness and died of a drug overdose in a shitty motel room. All that in just a matter of a few short years. Tragic. ASMR Darling is another example. College girl from Florida decided to make videos. Everyone thought she was cute. Pewdiepie featured her in one of his videos and BOOM. Instant e-celebrity. I've also seen many talented creators never gain any traction. It can be depressing if you put in the time and effort to create something and nobody gives a shit. It's equally frustrating when someone without talent achieves fame while you remain overlooked. Having fans might seem cool, but I always remind everyone that 1% of the population suffers from some form of psychopathy. When you finally reach 100k subs and get your coveted silver Play Button, you also probably have 100 psychos as fans. There's good and bad in all people and you won't be able to control who watches your videos or shares pics of you. The music industry tried unsuccessfully for the past 30 years to stop people from sharing music. The industry, with all of their money and power, couldn't stop it. The same goes for video. Once you upload it, it's here forever. What happens as a result is out of your control. Maybe nobody watches your video. Maybe you wake up the next morning and thousands have seen your video. Such is life on the internet. BuzzFeed is cancer, but this is actually a really good video series. Watch Laina's story and then base your decision on that. If you want to produce quality content with your film and audio skills, and you don't care about money or fame, being an ASMRtist may be an enjoyable hobby for you. Just be aware of what you're getting into first. Look before you leap. Good luck.
