They often say that we’re screwing the person who runs the channel. In reality, I’m willing to bet my left nutsack that they make a fuckton more from the occasional donations than from ads, once Google, MCNs, and the government take their share.

Pretty sure most YouTubers and streamers will tell you exactly that. Sponsorships and brand deals make them way way more

One of my random channels I watch straight up tells people to use adblocks and don’t give YouTube a cent.

And if you liked this, make sure to check out my online course where I do a deep dive of whatever this channel is about. Use code ENTHUSIASTICABOUTTHISTOPIC20 at checkout for 20% off!

I have a small channel (5k) and YouTube ads make about 40% of what I earn.

Yes, just a little. My patreon is the other 60%. But don’t discount the first 40%.
