A video about being a successful youtuber from someone I follow and I certainly found this video to be interesting.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mfi-GS2NbLE#wsI've honestly thought about being a "successful" youtuber before both because I like games and because I of course need to find work, but at the same time I looked at it realistically and decided being a youtuber, while it may seem like something I'd genuinely enjoy and is fun to imagine, it isn't something for me. I'm a person that values stability in their life and I very likely won't find that trying to be a full time youtuber, I'm better off finding work that can meet my needs with more dependability.
Whenever I've put a video out on youtube, which is super rare, it was for a college assignment. I may do it in the future with video games, but only to take advantage of Upload on the Xbox One and show off some moments here and there, just as a fun pass time.
