Yeah but remember you don't really make that much....

When you first start, you will be earning $0 per video. Honestly, do something useful with your life, you'll make way more money.

These are the "celebrities" of youtube, just like if you move to Hollywood and try to audition for some TV shows doesn't mean you'll be a super star, if you make youtube videos doesn't mean you'll be a youtube celebrity either.

Besides, you need to stand out, and its tough because so many people do everything.

Seriously... You probably won't make any money, sorry to hit you with reality.

Make videos you enjoy making, and that people enjoy watching, don't make videos to make money.
