  Watch the video from RTgames, it sums up everything I would say (changing policy, time and effort, difficulty to monetize, etc.) These people have jobs, and unless you are pulling in 1m+ views a video you won’t be rich
context: The thing is that they DONT have stable bank accounts. They could not get paid for a whole week for absolutely no reason. That's why they complain. >
  
  When I was like a teenager I was making money from YouTube and I was growing pretty decently for someone who had just started and was doing basic tier level videos. Anyways, I had shit friends that led me to stopping, but also I got really burnt out because it took almost a whole day of doing a video, editing, etc. >
  
  Curious what you do for a living now… are you pissed that you didn’t keep it going or are you happy with your current career? >
  
  Happy with what I currently do, but people keep telling me to go give it another shot, so I might try it again as a hobby thing and it competitive thing. When you focus on money, and competitive and take it seriously it’s exhausting. >
  
  Creating video content is actually really difficult to do on your own in a quality manner. Sure, if you’re a millionaire and can pay people to do most of the work for you you have no right to complain but even if you have say 100k subscribers you’re probably not in that position. It requires years of regularly coming up with ideas for videos, often writing scripts, doing research and editing a 10 minute video can literally take 8 hours, then you gotta craft a thumbnail in photoshop, research keywords for SEO, write descriptions, respond to feedback etc. That’s a single person often doing the work of 10 professionals! And most of them are self taught too, and do it as a hobby on top of schoolwork + work and everything else a typical person has going on.
  So if a person can have this much dedication to do all of this regularly for YEARS I applaud them. I tried doing it myself once and I didn’t last more than 3 months. >
  
  I see your point.. but still some of them are ungrateful whining cnt, while the kids on the other side of the world are scavenging trash cans for food to eat. >
  
  I hate the "people have it worse than you" pity Olympics like this. Everyone has it worse than someone else. Doesn't invalidate their own problems. >
  
  How do you know they have a stable bank account? >
  
  He probably means the bigger YouTubers lol, obviously someone with 35 subscribers wont be making tons of cash anytime soon >
  
  Indeed, I'm talking about the ones that have over 1 million >
  
  That's not nearly as big as you think. >
  
  If they don't like their job, they should find a new one.  I've changed jobs a few times over the course of my career when I was no longer satisfied with the job that I had. >
  
  And you did that any time you complained about your job?
