I was looking at a camping video (corporals corner I believe, 95,000,000 views) and he referred to his website. It had a blog. He said that he only made a couple hundred from Google. Way, way more from his Amazon Store page.

If I wasn't so lazy I would go look up the blog thing.
I want to say it was at 15K subs when I sub'd. It's growing at a much faster pace than VGG, which is quite impressive. I wish I knew their formula, LOL.

Wow, I bet You Tube is paying them something by now. I've heard you can make a little coin that way lol.

Based of the low end of what the Google machine just pulled up it looks like he has made $485,858.82 at a minimum. That is some real scratch.

Thanks guys for setting me straight. I really didnt want to paint anymore lol but youre right, just primer isnt great for the long haul. Ill throw some clear on it! Thanks

Also merch is a huge deal. Thats why once anyone gets semi big they start pushing their merch. Its how Mr.Beast funds most of his crazy expensive videos. Its crazy how large the profit margins can be on merch especially when they cheap out to china. I know MOOR doesnt push his merch super hard like other channels but he still has it nonetheless. Plus im sure the yankum partnership is helping too lol.

Oh, I bet those that have the views can optimize the amount they can earn.
Isn't one of his guys entire job to video and monetize the videos to the max?
And, he shills his own and other products.
I feel that they are truly making some scratch from YouTube.

I mean, that guy that runs for miles in 105F temp to get the video isn't doing that for free!

Yeah,
Videos like the truck drop make me wonder why anyone would care if all the TV shows go out on strike or not.
There are plenty of people making and self publishing better stuff everyday.

I don't need no stinking Hollywood.

I've watched a little bit of WD before. After he said this vid below was basically CGI, I quit watching. I didn't know if what I was seeing was real at that point.


EDIT: I'm not saying that I'd like that truck smashed, however. If it WERE real....
