Okay? I want to know I want to know put that in there So let's talk about this YouTube thing first, okay? What I want to do first is talk about If you want to make money on YouTube you can't first off Okay, like I said all you need is a computer or a cell phone or whatever you set up a YouTube account You have to have a Gmail account, which is free. Okay, and that's gonna get you set up now Before before you start who got it who got it somebody got it that was fast somebody said Did somebody get that card put in there if you got that card. I want to know I want to know Let me get a sip of tea here Put in that chat section if you got that card. I want to know let's try Google and Netflix, okay? We will but who got that card? I want to know who got that card before I give out another one till I find out who got that card I can't give out another one. I'll make sure somebody got it. Okay, so just put in that chat section if you got it I just want to know so if you've been wanting to do a YouTube channel guys You can certainly do it any one of you watching me can do what I'm doing right now. There's no secret to this There's no no skill because I don't have any skill at it All it is is effort now it is a considerable amount of effort However, I want you to think of it this way if you set up a YouTube channel. Let's say it generates you You know Honestly, I don't know how to use a gift card Well, all you got to do is that one. I just give away here Melvin all you got to do is go to Amazon and enter your gift card number and you get credit at Amazon That's all there is to it pretty simple. Okay, so oh Mike got it. Mike got it. Mike got $15. Yay, Mike Way to go Mike. Mike got it got it sir. I love it Mike. Where are you at? Did I let me see here? Did you say? Where you're at? No, that was Pat I don't see where you're where are you from Mike and somebody else was asking what the little dollar sign is there's a little dollar sign in the little chat area there guys and if you Want to donate to this channel if you want to you know support this training I'm doing you click on that dollar sign and you can give a dollar five dollars ten dollars or a million dollars I think a million dollars is a great idea. Okay, but you can give whatever you want Just clicking on that little dollar sign in the chat right there. So feel free to do so So anyhow this this this YouTube thing This is how I want you to think about it because a lot of people will say well You only make five hundred dollars a month or a thousand or two hundred whatever it is, but it's not just a month It's every single month. Okay, so once your channel gets monetized Through YouTube this money that you're gonna earn happens every single month. So it's like a piece of real estate it's like owning a piece of property somewhere and somebody paying your rent every single month and The only difference is you don't have to deal with a tenant. Okay, you're a landlord But you have to deal with the tenant in addition to that you don't have to buy a house or an apartment You just do videos on YouTube now Here's how YouTube works. Okay. I want you to understand You cannot let's see just roblox. Yay, by the way, I hope everyone got a chance to get some they're gonna they're gonna On YouTube you can't start a channel and just do random videos. It won't work. Okay, it won't work Now if you're a big celebrity, you know, you're Kim Kardashian and you start a channel. Yeah, obviously people are gonna listen to that However, if you're somebody that's not known and you don't have you know, that notoriety You cannot just do a blogging channel on YouTube, you know, a lot of people go I just want to blog about my life. Well, nobody cares about your life. They just don't they don't care about my life What they care about is a niche. Okay, and what is a niche a niche is a particular subject So if you decide you want to do a YouTube channel like mine is how to make money online That's all I talk about is how to make money online. I'm talking about it right now But if you want to make a good YouTube channel, what you want to do is pick a niche So maybe your niche is barbecuing and you love to barbecuing you think barbecuing is a lot of fun You want to cook and you want to show people how to do ribs and chicken and you know All the different things you're doing then you could do a channel around barbecuing. Okay a lot of women have Channels around makeup. Okay, that's another big one makeup is a huge one. Okay, so if you want to do makeup tutorials You could do that if you want to do ones about DIY, you know, do it yourself type videos You could do that, but you have to pick a niche very very important that you do that you pick a niche If you pick a niche, you're gonna be successful. You'll do well Okay, but you got to pick a popular niche if you don't pick a popular niche It's gonna be a whole lot harder for you to gain traction. Okay, so once I've picked this popular niche I decided I want to do videos Now the next thing is how long are the videos gonna be? You don't want to do super short videos Okay, you just want I don't want to do that. What's Pat saying here? Yes. I am Not built like her Don't know what that means Pat. I'm not quite sure what that means But anyhow, what you want to do is you you can't do a bunch of short videos because what YouTube does is they want a Lot of watch time. Okay, and if you're doing super, you know, short videos Then you're not gonna have a lot of watch time So how long should the video be now? YouTube will tell you that you want to be about eight minutes Okay, about eight minutes long because they can put up to four I think it's four ads on your video and you're gonna get I think it's 60% right now 60% of the ad revenue that comes in I get ad revenue every single day. I love it. I love it I mean they pay me to do these videos YouTube does That doesn't mean that you guys can't support by clicking a little dollar sign there and don't forget also I didn't I didn't remind you you got it subscribe So click that subscribe button if that button is read that's a warning to you that you haven't clicked it yet So you need to click it. Okay. Oh, okay, Pat says he's not built like him Kardashian. No, you're not Oh, I don't know. Maybe you I don't even know what you look like that. But yeah, she's built a little different not my cup of tea But anyhow, you know, some people like that. It's not my thing So anyhow, how long do you do your videos? I like to do videos are about 10 to 14 minutes when I do videos now this I don't consider a video because this is live I'm talking to you guys today. It's what what is today today is December 19th About six days away from Christmas from for those of you who celebrate that So This one here is gonna be longer and it's gonna be longer because I'm talking to you guys and we're conversing and it's not like an edited type video But I think 10 to 14 minutes is really good. Okay, so once you've decided how long you're gonna do your videos You've decided what subject you're gonna do your videos on I want you to keep one thing in mind when you start a YouTube channel. This is a long term Project long term now. I started my channel in 2015, but I really didn't do anything with it until this year I mean, I would randomly put up some videos but this year when corona virus the pandemic hit I was like, well, I don't I don't work on my YouTube channel and I did it within a few months I got monetized, you know, and I'm getting paid now, which is pretty cool Merry Christmas. I appreciate that just rule blocks very nice and So anyhow, so we've got what the subject's gonna be we know it's got to be a niche We know about how long the videos got to be So what do you make your videos about? There's only two reasons that people come to YouTube only two reasons for entertainment or for education set and 60% of the people that come to YouTube come for education They are using this like a search engine as a matter of fact YouTube is the second largest search engine in the world And it's second only to Google which owns YouTube. Okay, so you've got to understand that whatever whatever you're talking about Make it something you're passionate about and make it something that is educational or entertaining now If you could do both of those okay, if you could be Educational and entertaining you'll really do well. Okay, you'll really do well now The next thing is so we figured out what we're gonna do it on we figured out how long we're gonna make our videos We figured out the content because it's gonna be educational or it's gonna be entertainment Now the next thing we have to figure out is how we're gonna make money. How do you make money? There's several ways to make money on YouTube now A lot of you guys think well the best way to make money on YouTube is to have ads run on my videos That's how you make money. It's not it really is not the best way to make money not not that I don't appreciate it Not that I don't like it But understand to get to that stage to get to the stage where they're gonna run ads and they're gonna pay you and by The way they run ads on all videos now They don't necessarily pay you to be paid you have to be a YouTube partner. Okay, so I'm a YouTube partner now How did I get to that status? It's real simple. I worked really hard. Okay, and what I got was You have to have at least 4,000 hours of watch time in the previous 12 months. Okay, so you got to have a lot of people watch them So what is that? This won't figure that out hours of watch time here. Let's see what that is 4,000 divided by 12 you can have 333 hours of watch time a month for 12 months Okay, you've got to have that and the next thing you have to have is 1,000 subscribers. Okay, so if you don't have 1,000 subscribers and you don't have 4,000 hours of watch time you cannot You cannot be a YouTube partner and you will not get paid even though ads will run on your channel Somebody has put in there. Do you have any control over the ads they put on? Um Well kind of sorta here's the here's the deal with the ads it used to be if you Didn't qualify for ads you don't have to worry about it because no ads would run on your videos, but now they do So you can choose to not have ads run on your videos back then and I think you still can but you cannot pick The company that's going to advertise on your videos. You can't do that. You can Adjust the frequency when they run, you know, do you want them in the beginning of your videos? Do you want them in the end you want them in the middle, you know, we accept banners? That's all in your settings. You can do that But like I said, that's one way to make money on YouTube The next way to make money on YouTube is to use affiliate links Now affiliate links you can use from day one. Okay, so if I was doing videos on Cooking for example. Okay, what I may do is I may say have using this nice KitchenAid blender here And if you like this blender go down in the com or go down in the description section There's a link to this blender you go by it now I could get those links from Amazon and Amazon would pay me a commission when somebody clicked about that blender Or if they bought anything within the next 48 hours because there's a cookie in that link that's going to tag that person You know links affiliate links are great now You may even decide to do a channel where you're going to review kitchen products Okay, and when you review those kitchen products there you're talking about a particular product and you're Providing a link for them to go by it. You can get paid on that and you can do that from day one You don't have to be monetized. Okay, so affiliate links are a great thing to do now. Maybe you have Your own Product maybe you have a course maybe you're teaching how to you know speak English Maybe you're teaching SEO maybe you're teaching how to build websites You could do videos on that subject, you know a lot of educational videos and say down in the description There's a link to my course click there go by my course, you know You course to be twenty seven dollars ninety seven dollars whatever the next thing you could do is you could actually put in there Downloads free downloads like in the description on this video. There's gonna be a free download It's a ninety seven dollar course you can click and get it absolutely free It won't show up until this live is over with guys But you can click an opt-in. How do I make money on an opt-in? Well, that puts people on my list Okay, so I have an email list so when I do have something to sell I will email my list and offer it to the people on my list. Okay, so that's another way you can make money I mean my guide there's so many different ways you could do sponsorships, you know And I get contacted by companies pretty much weekly with almost if not daily now to do videos on their products And they offer me money. They say hey if you do a video on my product, you know We will pay you 500 bucks will pay a thousand bucks whatever I don't do those very often because I don't I don't really like Saying a product's good, you know because you may like it you may not like it So I don't I don't really do the sponsored video things But you know, I could make money doing that if I wanted to do that That's that's a way you could make money, you know Let's see Mike's got a question. How much is YouTube CPM for business channels? That's a really good question and you brought up a good point to Mike and the point is Different channels have different CPMs now I looked this morning and mine was thirty three dollars Which is really pretty high because it could be a dollar or two dollars. It could be ten dollars fifteen minus thirty three bucks So, you know for every thousand it's generating thirty three dollars of which I get sixty percent So that's not bad. Okay, you know, I appreciate that and thanks for that question Mike. I do appreciate that That's a great question So also that's something you want to think about when you start your YouTube channel if you're gonna do Let's say a prank channel, which is for entertainment, you know, you're pranking people and it's funny That's gonna get a whole lot lower CPM or cost per thousand Then a channel like mine where I'm teaching people how to make money The reason for that is that people who come to this channel to learn how to make money are Are people that are really good to market to to sell stuff to that had to do with finance and stocks and stuff like that Whereas somebody who is going to a prank channel, who are they? You know, who are they? Well, they buy anything you don't know so they're gonna have a much lower CPM and since you share in that CPM You know, you want to consider that you really want to consider that when you're doing your channel What will your audience be? What will your is your audience targetable? Okay, so if I have a prank channel, and I'm just entertaining people or if I'm doing movie reviews, whatever How do you target those people? I mean if I've got let's say I'm selling Camping equipment and I go to a channel that you know does pranks Who's the audience? You don't know it's it could be anybody. So those people are a whole lot harder to target If you go to my channel, you know, it's people that are interested in business and making money You know that okay because that's the only reason you're gonna listen to my channel. That's it. So when you're doing that You want to make sure that you're picking something that is gonna be marketable Okay, if it's not marketable to if you can't target your audience, you're not gonna make as much on ad So you want to keep that in mind. Okay. All right. So what's what's more about a YouTube channel? Next thing I'll tell you is that every time you do a video you must must must make a thumbnail now What is a thumbnail a thumbnail is that little picture that you see when you're searching at YouTube? In that thumbnail is got to be engaging. It's got to be something that really pops You know, if you look at my channel, I have a graphic artist and he makes all my thumbnails I used to make it myself. I'm terrible at it. He does a really good job But the thing is it's got to be something that people are gonna want to click on if you don't make a thumbnail What YouTube does is it takes a screenshot of some place in your video and it could be flattering or not? So flattering and they just use that as your thumbnail because they have to have something Okay, now the next thing is when you go to make your videos You want to make videos not that you want to make but that people want to watch Hmm. Okay. It's a different way of looking at it. How do you know what they want to watch? You need a tool the tool I use is called TubeBuddy. Okay, so I start off with an idea It's like making money with your laptop. Okay, so I'll write down making money with my laptop and then what I do I Go to TubeBuddy of which I'll provide you that free software It'll be in the description section on this video when I'm done It's free software doesn't cost you anything if you do use my link and you decide to go for the pro version It saves you 30% so that's kind of cool, too. Let me get a little sip here. I'm a little bit dry Then once again, if you haven't subscribed subscribe and ring the bell turn on all bell notifications So that you're notified every single time I do a video or when I go live like this Let's see. JustRublox says by the way thumbnail helps to search If you want to entertain. Yes, it does. It really does And I want to talk about TubeBuddy in a second, but before I do that Do you think I should give away some of this? What do you think put in the comment section? If you think I should give away some of this just put it in there put in that comment section I want to see what you guys think, you know, and if it's not time to give away any of this I'll just go back to instructing. That's not a problem. But if you think it's time for this Then put put something in the just Rublox is bing bing. I'm not sure bing bing means who's bing bing me Okay, all right But if you think it's time for this put this put in the chat section that you think it's time for a gift card Some of you may say well, no JR. I don't want a gift card right now. Don't give me a gift card right now And I won't I won't force one of these on you. Okay Just Rublox says yes So you pay youtube to have a business channel fix fee. No no pat you don't pay anything It's free free free free free You just set up your channel and you start making videos It doesn't cost you anything and I want to talk about TubeBuddy in just a second so you can figure out how To make the right videos because you got to make the right videos netflix. Yep google play. All right, let's start Who's that james? He says google play james you win. I'm going to do a google play And so there it is this one here is 10 to 500 dollars 10 to 500 dollars Uh jerry clemons the link.

See they're all nice and paid for that nice There's a receipt for all of them All right, got it cool. So anyhow what we were talking about is starting this youtube channel And how you get to sell what kind of videos and I told you that you're going to want to use tube buddy Which is the software that will be in the description at the end of this video Okay, you can get it for free So what do you do is you start off with an initial idea But the amazon is more faster by the way. I hope you do a netflix. Okay Um So what you do is you start off with an idea in the software called tube buddy and you type it in And it's going to pop up these meters and they're going to show you What the search volume is for that idea And it's going to show you What your chances of getting you know a higher ranking on your channel So it's going to look at overall and it's going to look at your channel Then what you can do is you can change some words in the title and adjust that Neater to where it goes higher into the green and it gets you a higher probability Of somebody actually wanting that video looking for that video So that's what we do is we use that Software we start off with an idea we use that software we figure out a title that's going to work for our video Okay So little things that do work are like seven steps to make money with your laptop or three ways to lose weight In seven days or you know simple steps type thing people love that kind of stuff how to videos understand That they are going To youtube to solve a problem or be entertained. Okay. That's the only reason we're there Ed says so how do you actually get it? Get it get it. What's it? Tell me what it is and I'll be happy to tell you So once you do that He has apple What you do is once you've got this title that's optimized Then you go make your video. Okay Um, that's what you do you go make your video after you figured out this title So now we've got a thumbnail and we've got a title that works Okay, and then we're going to make our video which we talked about should be 10 to 14 minutes now. Does that mean? That you can't make a five minute video every now and then no it's just understand That they tell you that they want an eight minute video. That's what youtube says We want eight minute videos so we can put enough ads in there If you do four minute and five minute videos and they can't put enough ads in there They have no inclination to show your video to the masses. So when people type in search whatever They don't want to show your video as much because they can't make as much money on it Okay, they don't want to recommend your video because it's not long enough for them to put enough ads in I mean only makes sense You know youtube is there to make money the way they make money is they run ads on your videos if your videos don't You know conform to what they want. Why would they show it? I mean they just not going to do it So you've got to you got to play by the rules and some people will bitching complain and they'll say well You know gosh, you know, they shouldn't run ads on Channels that aren't monetized and they should pay me anyhow. No, they shouldn't because they're giving you a free platform They've got to pay for this platform This is youtube's business model. And if you don't want to play here, you don't have to play here That's their rules. Okay, you're using their software What if we run out of content to make impossible melvin? And that's the next thing I was going to talk about If you need ideas if you need ideas to make videos It's super easy to get the best ideas and to get the best videos of anybody on the internet. How do you do that? Check out your competition Okay, so if I'm going to make let's say I'm going to make a barbecue beef ribs Okay, I'm going to first go to youtube But I'm going to search videos with barbecue beef ribs and people making them and then I'm going to go look at those videos I'm going to look at their title I'm going to try their title in my tube buddy software And I'm going to watch the video and if it's a good video, I'm going to do one similar to it But better, okay, maybe I will include some downloadable Recipes maybe I will do a little bit longer video. Maybe mine will be a little bit more detailed. Okay So it's really easy because there's millions of videos out there millions and you don't have time to make millions Okay, not videos and you have dollars. Yes, but not videos So all I got to do is look at my competition and I do this I look at my competition and then when you go to your competition Here's what you want to do You want to go to their video tab click on videos and then click sort by most popular If you click sort by most popular, you'll find their videos with the most views Now odds are if those videos got the most views That's what you should do a video on simple, right? And since there's a lot of competitors out there and there's millions and millions of videos You'll never run out of ideas because you don't have to come up with them. They're already there Somebody's already probably done a video on that subject. That doesn't mean that you shouldn't let me get a little sip of water here That just means that somebody else thought of it and it works Oh, let's see here I'm gonna hit some of these questions here Demons lair fan says ed canal you need apple devices like iphone to redeem it Yes You do for the apple card What if the area you want to focus on doesn't have that many viewers? Then it's not popular You know, that's I mean it's not to say you can't do videos that area But if somebody else hasn't already done it, you know, competition is not bad competition is good competition Shows you what's working. Okay, if there's somebody out there that's got tons of followers and tons of views and tons of videos That means it's working If you go against the grain and say well, I want to do some videos where there's hardly any subscribers and hardly any views That's what you're going to end up with hardly any subscribers and hardly any views. You have to pick something That is going to be marketable. That's just what you got to do. Uh, what do you mean? Jerry Clemens Uh, I I think I handled that one just for blocks. I think he meant if there isn't a lot of you know, uh Who plot around something, you know, if there's not a lot of viewers not a lot of you know Subscribers that type of thing. So okay, so once I've done that I've got a cool title Uh, and I've got I know how long my video is going to be. I know what my channel is all about I know what my niche is the next thing we need is a description Descriptions really important. Well, it's important for for one thing because that's where you're going to put your affiliate links Every video should have some affiliate links so that people can click on it so you can make some money Or some opt-ins or some free downloads something that's your opportunity to sell whatever you've got Um, and I've heard people say well, you should make money off your videos. Well, I do okay I do that's what I choose to do. I give away a lot of free content But yeah, I make money too. I mean I gotta make a living Okay, everybody's got to make a living everybody's got to earn a living and there's nothing wrong with that Okay, everything that you have right now somebody sold you I don't care if it's a a toothbrush or a telephone or whatever it is, you know, you're getting sold every day Okay, there's nothing wrong with selling matter of fact. I like selling. I think it's cool. Uh, why you have Low views when you have most useful information because I just started on this channel really working on it this year Um, you know, we went from like a thousand subscribers to over four thousand in probably six seven months Which is pretty good, but it's because I did the right thing. So now I'm going to talk about the next thing We've got this video. We've got a good title. We've got um A good description But how often how often do you post a video? Wow, this is a tough one. This is a really tough one I will tell you if you want to gain any traction nowadays, you're going to have to do two or three a week Two or three a week. You're not going to want to hear that but you're going to need to do two or three a week I do Um Five videos a week. Okay. I do actually six because I'm doing a live on saturday So I do six videos a week and some people say well, that's a lot. I'm like, no, it's not It's really not. Um, I know a guy gunby publishing and you can look him up. Uh, afterwards g o m b y Publishing and he does five a day a day every day five four five a day That's a lot, but he's really growing his channel. Um, you see with youtube Whatever you pick is your schedule. Let's say you pick two or three a week Post them on the same days. Let's say you do monday wednesday friday Every week you need to do monday wednesday friday. You can't miss a week. You can't do it. Okay, and how do you do that? You say well, sometimes I'm busy and I can't do a video jr Do a whole bunch of them, you know, like I I film usually on tuesdays And I'll do you know 10 to 12 videos on a tuesday and I do that like every other week That way I always have extra videos That's what you need to do. It's called Batching where you just you set up all your equipment you set up your cameras your kitchen whatever it is You write down all your ideas you do a whole bunch of videos and you have them and you schedule Because in youtube you can actually schedule when your videos will go live So I schedule mine to come out every morning. I think it's like six or eight o'clock. I can't remember right now Uh, let's see here video this video this, uh, by the way I forgot to mention this guys if you see somebody in the chat here like video this Or like add or whoever make sure you subscribe to their channel make sure you do that man We want to support each other. So everybody you click on video this down subscribe to that person Anyhow, he's he's got an answer says Um, by the way because of competition by the way, this channel is growing faster if you didn't notice lol Yes, it is it's growing a lot faster now. And you know why because I finally decided to work I mean really, you know, I was doing like two or three videos a week and then I would skip two or three weeks And then I would come back a month later. You can't do it that way. You got to be all in So that's the next thing I'll tell you about youtube guys. You got to be all in It's a lot of work. It's a lot of work if you're not prepared to do this It's not going to work for you just won't you've got to a no problem video this and by the way everybody subscribe to my channel and Bring the bell turn on all bell notifications so I can let you know what I do a new video or when I go live That's my little commercial there. Um But the thing is guys, um, it's work, you know And that's the one thing I see people that are like, well, man I did videos for two months and nothing happened then do it for three months Oh, I tried three months and nothing happened then do it for six and do it for 12 You just keep doing it and it will happen. You just keep doing it and it will happen I can't impress this upon you enough guys I know because I've tried so many things that didn't work and I kept doing it and kept doing it and kept doing it And all of a sudden I got some traction, you know, um, so it takes Uh, Jessica L. Fisher is in there. Hello, Jessica L. Fisher Long time subscriber, um, but it takes a long time to do this stuff guys And you're not going to see results in the beginning, you know Some olympic athlete that's really good at something you didn't see the days and nights and months and years They worked to get to that point all you saw was the achievement of getting there So when you see these big channels, you know, what's interesting and what I like to do when I see a really big youtuber They got millions of subscribers I like to go click on their videos and click on oldest sort by oldest and look at the first video they did And they're without questions some of the worst videos you'll ever see And don't do that to me because yes, I have some awful videos up here But bottom line is we all have to start off that way And we all have to grow our channel and we have to spend time and we have to learn Okay, and that's that's why I'm kind of teaching you guys today So you know some of this stuff and you know what to do somebody says it's time for a gift card You think it's time for a gift card guys. What have I done? I've done apple I've done, uh, what's this one here? I've done amazon Anybody want a gift card anybody interested in gift cards anybody anybody put in that chat section If you are interested in gift cards and don't forget a little dollar symbol there You can click on that if you want that you can support this channel to the tune of a dollar for five dollars Or like I said, my favorite donation one million dollars, you know, you could do that That would be really nice How much time do you spend on your youtube channel and how much on your other businesses? Jerry wow Jerry I got to tell you I work all the time. I mean, I really do. I work seven days a week On saturdays and sundays. I don't work as much as I do monday through friday But many days I will work, you know all during the day on friday or monday through friday And then I work in the evenings too And how much time I spend on a particular business is how much That business needs me. Okay. So like if I've got my youtube videos scheduled for the next three or four weeks And those are done. I don't have to do anything. You know, they're done. Okay, they're done And I think I am scheduled three or four weeks right now I help I have enough videos to cover me that far. So we have to work on it But then, you know in a couple weeks, I'm going to have to spend like a couple days Probably spend a week writing scripts and then a day like filming So, you know And then, you know, like my survival food company, I have to work on that when it's needed You know, sometimes I'm in the middle of working on a youtube video And there's a customer that needs help with my survival food company. I got to help them, you know And right now I'm working on doing youtube ads. We have a lot of ads coming out I have a webinar. So I'm working on that.

I I really hope that you know, some of you guys will start a youtube channel It's not that hard. I mean, I'm just sitting here talking. It's really not that hard You got to put forth time and effort time and effort is the biggest thing because you know, we all have limited time You know when we say no to doing something we're saying yes to something else So when we say no, I'm not going to make a youtube channel We may be saying yes to I'm going to sit on the couch and watch tv. Okay, so that's that's a bad decision It's always better. And I want you to think of it this way to Create more content than you consume create more than you consume. So I watch youtube Uh eddo connell got one cool. Um melvin says you're lucky But bottom line is I make more content than I watch Okay, and a lot of times the content that I'm watching is similar to the stuff I do and it gives me ideas So it's technically work. Okay. So if I like my wife has do a diy channel and she watches diy videos It may give her an idea to do one So, you know, that that's where you can combine your pleasure with your work Okay, watch the stuff that you work on and if you're not wanting to watch the stuff you work on You're probably in the wrong niche. You're probably in something you don't like doing which is ridiculous. Okay Pat says thanks. No problem.
