    • dont make someone else's success your miseryhotroddy
    • I know but it’s hard. It’s not their success it’s their unwarranted success. We would never hate on Jordan, George Lukas or jk Rowling._niko
    • I mean, I don't really bother with youtubers but they're just people giving it a go right? Surely the market decides what's viable.ben_
    • Yeah but we can’t all be SoundCloud rappers or athletes or you tubers or kardashians anything else that makes a fortune with little effort or talent_niko
    • Well not athletes but some guys are making 6 million a year by riding the bench averaging 4 ppg just because they’re 7’ tall._niko
    • My 12 y/o son just said “I’ve been telling you for the longest time dad, just let me grow some dreads and I’ll be the next tekashi 69” fml lol_niko
    • my nephews are facinated by youtube. the app is on family room tv and that's all they watch.hotroddy
    • I realize its Stupid generated content but I think they find it more authentic over a tv commerical.hotroddy
    • Do you know how many there are who try and fail? For every success there are 1000's failures.NBQ00
    • i'm calling the jelly police.ApeRobot
    • You're right, not everyone can be rich, but that's true whether or not you have any talent.ben_
    • If a little kid and his parents can make bank reviewing toys, more power to them. All it means is that the bar is pretty low, so you should be...ben_
    • ...able to get in on the action, no? If it requires no talent or work, then surely you can capitalize on it easily ;)ben_
    • Yeah exactly I’m not actually hating on the kid or you tubers I’m hating on myself for toiling like an idiot all day lol_niko

    • I made 10k from 1 video, but it took 2 years in spare time to make the 1 video... so..yeah... next video coming soon.... another 10k one hopes...shapesalad
    • 1m views roughly = 1k. well depends on the ad types and audience type and if subscribers or not. more like 1m views £900shapesalad
    • Surely general TV in which we're dictated to watch what news channels want us to is over now? We dictate what we watch and it'll benefit us all. Until...Ianbolton
    • the online police (facebook, google etc) start dictating whether we're clever enough to realise Alex Jones is just another moron with a voice.Ianbolton
    • I only wonder why companies are paying for the ad revenue of this reviewer. Kids don't have money. Parents do. But is toy review on peer level so destroyed youdeathboy
    • need a toy king edicts to dictate purchase. by revenue spent it seems that way. has youtube turned children into the mindless consuming buffoon adults. by proxydeathboy
    • I don't know know but the money in it is startling and sad and concerning.deathboy
