Wanna see some crazy money, go watch the Dude Perfect videos. They have so much in sponsorship money and profits from their videos. They own a large gym/studio thing where they film all their crazy videos. But they’re all Aggies so they’re spending their YouTube money buying big black dildos to pork each other when the cameras aren’t rolling

There are also the smart YouTubers like Sargon of Akkad, Dave Rubin, and Philip Defranco. I really think they’ll go onto the next platform, and YouTube may go the way of MySpace if they keep this shite up.

Check out Key West Kayak Fishing on Youtube, he does a vidoe every month on what he makes. Last month was just under $4000, plus he has Patreon sponsors. All he does is fish from a Kayak in Key West..... not a bad way to make a living.

If you are able to get a lot of eyes on you, there is always a market for you.

I am thinking about putting together my own youtube skits. Anyone want to help me make them?

A lot of them have business managers that have helped them start asking for equity positions in the products and people that they put in their videos. Most of these guys are actually very sharp.

The perfect balance IMO are the people who do travel vlogs - they get to live on the road, going anywhere in the world and get to do it for "free" through their YouTube communities. They are also doing activities that are a big enough ticket (e.g., airfare, hotels, excursions, photography [recording memories]) that they can get good financial returns without needing millions of views.



I am curious to how the Helen Owen’s of the world do. It doesn’t seem like she does any modeling work outside of Instagram, so all she does is post outfits in exotic locations. Seems like great gig but we only see the best of it.

Anyway, i almost started a thread today about how Instagram has gotten way too on the nose with the ads.
