(upbeat rock music) 2 2
-: There are even more ways to make money 3 3
on YouTube, too. 4 4
Many YouTubers can get book deals quite easily. 5 5
I have received calls from publishers 6 6
several times myself, but you could easily 7 7
reach out to a publisher if you're interested 8 8
in writing a book. 9 9
Some people get offers to make private videos 10 10
for, like, fans, not those kinda private videos! 11 11
You know, nice ones, with the clothes on. (laughs) 12 12
Maybe like a private happy birthday video. 13 13
And there are likely more opportunities for you 14 14
that I can even predict. 15 15
So (laughs) enjoy that. 16 16
So yes, there's definitely a way 17 17
for you to do YouTube full-time in the future, 18 18
and you don't have to be extremely large 19 19
to make it work, as long as you have a good strategy 20 20
and you are smart with your money. 21 21
Prepare for winter, like the ants, and the bees, 22 22
and the Canadians, (laughs) and the Norwegians. 23 23
You may starve in January if you are careless 24 24
with your money. 25 25
AdSense will be down. 26 26
Ad agencies, companies will be sponsoring you less. 27 27
Maybe people are buying less merch. 28 28
So don't be spending like a football player, 29 29
thinking the earnings you earned in December 30 30
are gonna continue. 31 31
Chris has a personal finance course, too, 32 32
which I took, and I'm recommending it to you, 33 33
because so many YouTubers are idiots. (laughs) 34 34
I'm just talking about myself. 35 35
They're pretty creative, 36 36
but bad at money management sometimes. 37 37
But I don't want anything to interfere 38 38
with the success of my channel, 39 39
and not having enough money to pay the rent 40 40
would require me to get a real job. (laughs) 41 41
So be smart with your money, 42 42
so that you can continue to invest your time 43 43
in your channel and not down at Starbucks, 44 44
or wherever you work. 45 45
It might be, like, a nicer place. 46 46
Actually, I should stop with that stereotype. (laughs) 47 47
A lot of YouTubers still keep their job. 48 48
Simply Nailogical, Cristine, oh my God. 49 49
She's killing it! 50 50
She's a forensic scientist, or something. (laughs) 51 51
And she still manages her channel once a week. 52 52
And it's a hugely successful channel. 53 53
Go check it out. 54 54
But, yeah. (laughs) 55 55
So yeah, her real job is probably her side job 56 56
at this point.
