Excellent breakdown and congrats on surviving the 1st year!! We all know it hasn't been easy for you. Keep doing what you do, and I'll keep watching here, liking the videos...and posting comments/questions.
Personally I don't 'skip' ads on smaller channels as I know every penny counts. If I had to offer a small criticism it would be 'a little less food and a little more of the places you visit', IMO it would gain you more international subscribers as us foreigners like to see the things we would like to do on a visit to the USA. Having said all that your personality and editing skills is what shines through in your video's.... Thanks for taking the leap into being a full time RUclips creator. From a guy in the middle of England.
Love your transparency. That's what we love about you. Your willness to share the ups and downs of car life. You will do nothing but soar in your next year. Blessings to you ❤
Congrats on year one!!🎉 pretty sure you’re channel will grow exponentially as good honest content is getting harder to find on YT!! Also visiting all these lovely places with you is like a sofa vacation for all of us viewers, so keep up the fab work Christine!!😃
OMG this is fab! You are hilarious! I have been here from the start and a huge fan! Year two will be even better and great work! I am a writer, producer, director by profession and for what it is worth- I truly feel your videos are great! Those numbers will grow and are great for year 1!
wow very funny intro and thanks for the info about RUclips earnings I always wondered what people made and thank you for your transparency, all the bets luck in the future as your channel grows
I 100% agree on the Gucci bag :-) you are very fun to watch, Christine. Keep it up and we’ll keep it up on our end as far as watching. Eventually, you’re gonna have to get somebody to help you :-)
You are the best! I can't tell you enough how much I look forward to your videos. Your honesty is admirable! I will happily continue to be a member of your channel. Keep up the great work!
That’s really not too bad of an income since, as you said, you have no rent or mortgage, utilities, etc to pay every month. And your expenses were doable also. There’s nowhere to go but up from here! You’ll do it! And I always thought you had a funny side to you also, a mischievous side. That intro was a hoot! Thanks for the fun!
I wondered about the add revenue. You answered that question for me because I know I can help my favorite RUclipsrs by watching the ads. What I didn't know is if watching some of the add gave the RUclipsr partial credit. Do you have to watch the whole add segment if there is more than one add?
Thank you for taking the time to inform us of your year on RUclips. It is great that you could manage on that small amoun. I figure insurance cost almost what you made this year. I hope your revinue and channel continue to grow. I have really enjoyed your content. ❤😊
You go girl ! Have to walk before you can run....and as you have displayed, money can't buy happiness. .you do a great job with your videos, keep up the good work !
That intro was the best! 😂 Christine your videos are awesome. I can't even imagine how you'd make them "better" but I'm so glad you'll still be traveling and taking us along with you touring rhe country
Very revealing and informative - thanks for the detailed breakdown. I would say you are doing very good in a field with so many competing with you for view time. You're putting a good amount of effort into this and it shows.
Don't mute them, but you can turn the sound way down low, RUclips I have heard knows when you mute a video and therefore won't give the person credit. Maybe Christine can check into this as well and let us know for sure.
Very entertaining and creative video, Glad you got back to see your Family! Cheers! I Hope clicking the like button on all the comments does something...
I love your content and your personality! My favorite videos are the ones where you show life in your car. The destination videos are great too, but just seeing you do life in your vehicle is the most inspiring to me. Keep up the great work!
That was interesting. Your intro was very funny and creative. I'm not a creator just a watcher but I am curious have you tracked your actual 'work' time as if you were employed by someone to see what you are earning on a per hour basis. Also knowing that your edits might be the most time consuming part, what would you say makes that the most difficult? No clue what kind of content you make but I think offering some merch might also give you one more revenue stream. You can farm out most of it or maybe get someone to help full fill for a small cut. Good luck to you.
Your intro had me in stitches 😄 Love how you broke everything down and congratulations on all you have achieved in your first year full time on RUclips! There is no doubt your channel is going to continue to grow over the next year. Work smart not hard as they say!
So cool and inspirational to everyone who runs a small RUclips channel, too! We're all in this together as passionate creators. Cheers to everybody who follows their dreams! We got this!
Thanks for the update on how you and your program are growing! You make wonderfully informative and interesting videos and should be easily able to continue to increase your subscribers, as well as gathering sponsors!✅ We can always tell that you are enjoying your travels, and that you are pleased to share it all with your subscribers! Thank you for all your hard work which is truly appreciated! Take care, stay safe, and until your next video… 💕
LMAO this is too good. You're a gem. Tell me you didn't watch old-school youtube and I wouldn't believe it because this is a classic intro. I'm crying. :'D
I enjoy your videos and your quirky personality. I don't know, but is Fiverr a thing you could utilize for editing help? Just throwing that out there because I'm wondering... take care!
I'm glad you made some money , But more important is that you are out having an adventure. A few times in my life I have stopped working and traveled around, once I drove all the way to Alaska from Florida... And while it wasn't the best move for my Finances, I don't regret it at all. People said I should wait until retirement age to do things like that, but no one knows how long they have or how healthy they will be.. Anyway this is a long comment just to say Good for you for getting out and living your dream!! I hope that the money increases so that you can continue to travel as long as you wish.
Thanks for the info my daughter and I are getting ready to do van / Bus life come July and I shared this video in hopes she will start a RUclips channel. ❤ your videos.. you are the sweetest most honest person that I subscribe to. Blessings
The Itchy Boots channel had around 30,000 subscribers when I subscribed. As many as your channel's current subscribers. Now Itchy Boots has over 2 million subscribers. I think your channel also has this potential. Winners are those who don't break at the breaking point.
I'm sure the real value in the last year was all the great places you were able to visit, and the interesting people met along the way. There is no metric for "experience value", but in that category you outperformed all the "normal people" x100, great job!
You should dabble in acting, you are very good at it. Thank you for sharing how much RUclips can pay out to someone, you did well your first year, congrats! I know someone who has taught editing to others, so I will pass along your request. Take care now.
great job. happy for you . i work usually 6 days a week so the adventure will not be in my time . G od bless you as you travel and enjoy the good times. i rembember

Honestly, for a relatively small channel (compared to RUclips famous folks), I'm kinda surprised you're able to make that much. With more room to grow and potential future sponsors jumping onboard, I would say you will be doing fine in the near future. Keep it up and make it rain Washingtons! Hehehe.
2400 a month is a lot of money when you do not have utilities, waste management and rent what are your biggest costs (I imagine gas is one)(car repair another)(medical insurance)
The "Gucci" bag was the best
Yay! Thanks for watching! 😃🙏🏼
If you're happy, I'm happy - thx for sharing! I appreciate YT'ers that are completely transparent. It's becoming more rare these days.

I really need to Watch All the Ad Videos (On Mute) to Completion knowing now that it’s substantial portion of your RUclips Income.
Don't mute them, but you can turn the sound way down low, RUclips I have heard knows when you mute a video and therefore won't give the person credit. Maybe Christine can check into this as well and let us know for sure.

2400 a month is a lot of money when you do not have utilities, waste management and rent what are your biggest costs (I imagine gas is one)(car repair another)(medical insurance)
