      he doesent show real numbers he says me makes 3k on a car but doesn't account for over head, salaries being paid for x weeks of work vendors , staff accounting he tells everyone hey buy this 1000.00 car and he made 3k but he dident make 3k when you have to deduct every expense since its not only him working in his own house garage.

    Wtf?? I seriously don’t understand the haters thread on here?? The man is just making videos like the hundreds of thousands of other people on RUclips.. Why the hate?? Geesh!! There is an “Unsubscribe” option… or a Click next video option.. Yes, there were a lot of “Boat” videos.. No, I didn’t watch every single one of them.. But I dang sure ain’t gonna sit behind a keyboard and screen and “Bash” a man for just making a simple video or 12.. He’s got great info on here.. and I’ve not seen many at ALL break the money per video down like he just did. All he’s showing is YES it’s possible to make profits from buying,selling and doing it through RUclips.. Nothing wrong with that at all.. I, for 1 , Thank you @Craig for showing us all this info. I think it’s pretty damn cool myself. Stay blessed and Merry Christmas to you and your family brother!!

    I know ppl knock about ppl making money on RUclips but your channel is really cool bc you show what you do as a business and incorporate your family to be transparent completely. Channels that make money on just bashing ppl I don't agree with butt we're in a free country and everyone does and should have the right to post what they want and the ppl like myself have the option to watch a channel or not watch. I love your content but unfortunately RUclips has cut funding to creators like yourself and make you jump through hoops to be monetized but that's life even though RUclips makes all kinds of money.

    You did good even ignoring youtube revenue. I bought a new Four Winns just west of where you used yours, used it for 4 years and sold it for almost exactly half what we paid for it. Not sure you'll get $900 for each of the final 2 videos. Seems the later vids pay consistently less. I do love that e tron GT.

    Take it from someone that grew up in/on/around boats, both owning and working on them, the best way to enjoy a boat is to charter or rent one for the duration and then return it to the shop when you are finished. Let the rental company deal with the depreciation, upkeep/maintenance, damage, registration, insurance etc. This is even more true when you live in a northern state where you can't enjoy the boat for half of the year.
    Believe me, you will be a much happier individual and have more money in your pocket.

    It’s great that you actually own the fact that you were milking the boat saga for views/ad revenue. So many channels take on projects that are economically unviable but don’t ever talk about the fact that Joe Public would lose his shirt tackling the same project without the revenue from RUclips. BTW from what I understand, claiming your boat as a business expense because you use if for RUclips videos is apparently a sure fire way to get audited.

    Pd $11K for the first boat, 7 eng hours. Sold it with 140 hrs, $13K.
    2nd boat, pd $18,600. put 140 hours on it, sold for $18.6K, 4 years later.
    so, pretty much break-even, 8 years of use and enjoyed every trip w them!
