Ill get started later, I want to also do a self improvement channel but i need to really improve on it first.
I wont make most of it through that, its going to be through a subscription based private group. Hamza (a self improvement yter I recommend), does this, he charges 500 upfront, 99 a month and like more than 100 people have it, he makes more than 10k a month.
Honestly, that seems like very low income for the amount of work he put it and his success (2M+ subscribers).
Yea, that falls under my definition of celebrity. Nice, but not relevant for 99% of us.
He made a joke saying “aw imma cry myself to sleep with my 300k a month” in one video
First off, where do you think that data comes from? Legit 99% of people on youtube quit after a few months/weeks, and that didnt stop other channels from hitting 100m (0.0006 (3/5000!) to 0.001357% using your data) and who said I wanted to hit 1million? Even 10k is nice, lets say people who join my private group is 0.1 (low asf) which is 10 people, even 1% is 100 people. Lets say i do 50 bucks a month, bang 5k a month as a 13 year old.
Go do 50 bucks a month, bang 5k a month as 13 year old. You have my permission.
Normally, each million views generates 3-5k in american money. She would be the richest person on earth, with 2.5 trillion dollars. Even if youtube took half of it, she would have 1.25 trillion, somethings up with my math lmao.
No I know, I just wanted to show you. Sorry if I came across as cocky or something.

Don’t start a YouTube channel, start a business that you can use YouTube and other social media channels to promote your business. MJ has a channel as well, and I am sure his RPM is over $10 since he has a finance channel. But do you think he’s happy that he ‘bangs’ Xk a month? No, because his goal is not making some quick money. He posts videos to make one more person to buy his books, join his forum and provide value which is the ultimate goal.
Yes, I know. I want to provide self help advice to people.
Why would someone watch YOU for self help advice instead of the thousands of other Hamza-worshipping kids making those videos?
But how? I am just starting out as a web designer. I only need 10 clients to pay me $1000 for a website to make 5 figures a month. It sounds easy. But I can’t just go to a business owner and tell him to pay me $1000 so that I can reach six figures. I need to provide them solutions and results. How are you going to provide self help advice? What will be the difference between you and thousands of people reciting what Hamza and the others already told many years ago? Why would I watch 13 year old you instead of watching an adults who has a lot more experience than me? There are at least one thread about starting a YouTube channel because of Hamza on this forum every single day, yet we haven’t seen them posting good quality videos. This sounds like another form of action faking. People won’t subsribe to your private channel just because you posted some videos. Don’t end up like entitled people on reddit.
Both valid reasons. The subscription thing wont be till later. I want to do youtube videos just to get the word out. If I do end up doing it, it would be after my business becomes successful, if that makes sense.
Yea, I would be doing that.
You are right man how could I not think about that? I am convinced! Youtube is a magnificent business that fully fulfills the CENTS framework from the get-go. I wish more people these days would just stop trying to start a brick-and-mortar business. I say enough is enough!! More people should go in front of the camera to post content. Society demands more YouTubers!This is akin to saying that the probability of becoming a cash millionaire is below 1% (particularly outside of the richest countries) so why bother.
There's a shit ton of money on YouTube. If you have the skills and the willingness, you can become excellent at it. The challenge is consistently producing better and better content and somehow not burning out after years of doing the same thing.
Reminds me of my old thread with a quote from a decidedly NOT YouTube-era:
NOTABLE! - MINDSET - No, Your Market Is Not Saturated (Wisdom From a 19th Century Book)
The college-student who was about graduating, said to an old lawyer: "I have not yet decided which profession I will follow. Is your profession full?" "The basement is much crowded, but there is plenty of room up-stairs," was the witty and truthful reply. No profession, trade, or calling, is...
what a waste of words, you are pathetic.
Honestly, I didn’t read this part, and now that I think about it. You’ve made a point. Sure he does have to sit in front of a camera. But he can make money from those videos while he’s sleeping, and videos he’s made years ago. I do get your point though.
Yeah its still ‘easier’ than 99% of the jobs out there. But it’s still mentally taxing since you have to find video ideas, write scripts etc. Youtuber Ali Abdaal once said he was still editing his writers scripts since all videos are attached to his name. so i don’t know about you, but i am 19 and my mind changes about everything every single day. i am sure i don’t want to create myself a business that is directly about me. i think i like selling without my face. i don’t want to be the youtube guy who posts talking head videos even after a decade.
