using youtube as a living?

[zookuw]

so, me and my friend were arguing about our opinions on famous youtubers having no jobs and using youtube as a living.

personally i find it stupid, how about you actually get a job instead of getting paid around ten cents every month?

i honestly don't get it.
what are your thoughts on this?

I don't think you understand the concept of how much you can earn from youtube.

Make $10 off of YouTube and tell me. If that works, make $100,000 a year and then tell me. Thanks.

i can understand gaining money for younger people that can't acquire a job at the time, but when grown people like RWJ start making videos for money it's just disgusting.

Shut up. Your opinion is blatantly wrong, now lock the topic.

Live off youtube? forget yeah, I would if I could.

Nothing like only having to stuff out 1 stupid video that appeals to 11 year olds a week to make money.

Your opinion is blatantly wrong

I don't think an opinion can be wrong, bro.

Actually, in order to make a good amount of money, you'll have to produce one to three videos a day.
It's very time-consuming.

He puts up like 5 videos a week, so that's about $830 per video.

The way I see it, they provide free entertainment and get paid for it.
