    it's so incredible what you've been able to accomplish since going full time. also so true, the worst that can happen is you just have to get a job again - might as well try!!

    My birthday is also on the 8th of July😊It's crazy that you've been creating content for that long❤

  • @stephlyndsey3932
    @stephlyndsey3932 3 года назад +2

    I would like to add I don't think people understand when they ask "how long does it take to make money" that it's highly individualistic and it's based on consistency, you can start a RUclips channel but if you upload only five videos a year then yes it's going to take you longer to make income compared to if you posted consistently and multiple times a week. I don't think people realize how much energy time and money it takes to create and post consistently and they hope to get viral off of one video but its vital that you put in WORK if you want to make RUclips a job not a hobby you have to get the content out and available!

    I actually think your original “I quit my job” video is how I found you in 2019 because I had quit my job and the RUclips algorithm knows all

    I wonder how the adsense works so well for certain RUclips creators, no shaming here, I 💓 this channel and you can tell that Natalie works really hard but not a lot if views for 300k subscribers🤔.

    this might be controversial but i find your thumbnails kind of hard to read! when going through my sub box the thumbs really get me to click & if i have to spend more time thinking about what it says i’m less likely to click on it
