   This is what I’m talking about.

   2.8 million subs 100,000 to 450,000 views on his newly released content ….only 667 subs on patreon.

   If he’s making boucous bucks he’s getting it from brand deals and personalized advertising deals. Because his metrics aren’t enough to make him a comfy living. Sure, he’s got enough to live on now, but this is what I’m always describing: The death spiral.

   And he’s got a great conversion rate compared to most, a lot in his shoes barely get 20% of their sub count to watch a new video. But this decline. This is a creator who is not bringing in new, fresh blood. He’s stagnating. His audience will be whittled away, month by month, until nobody is left

     Hes been doing this for like ten years
     667 subs is pretty good imo that's like $3k a month if they're all giving $5

     Cool, what happens in 5 years when most have forgotten and they haven’t logged in to renew their credit card info?

     2030 he’ll be at 393 subs

     2035 he’ll be at 308

     and so on. Hence why I have always said this stuff is ephemeral, and the only real solution is using it as supplementary income for a real, lasting career.

     (Also the tax burden for the creator class sucks, you’re paying your own payroll tax)
