Day 92 – What is it like to be a “youtuber”?

Play episode

Hey everyone! Welcome back to my journey towards becoming a millionaire. We’re on day 92 of this incredible grind, and as always, I’m here to share the ups, downs, and everything in between. I’m not just a YouTuber (yeah, I still cringe at that label), but I’m all about diversifying my approach to success.

The Evolution of My Entrepreneurial Journey

My path has been anything but straightforward. Since 2017, I’ve dabbled in everything from Amazon FBA to Retail Arbitrage. However, what’s really resonated with me is creating content – be it YouTube videos or blog posts. It aligns perfectly with what I talked about in previous episodes: leveraging capital, code, media, and labor. And honestly, media is such an accessible form of leverage.

The Practicality of Media as Leverage

When you compare it to the investment required for hiring employees or investing in software development, content creation is far more feasible, especially for someone starting out. It’s why I’ve doubled down on growing my YouTube channels and working on my blog. It’s not just about creating content; it’s about building a foundation that pays off in the long term.

Considering Freelance as a Short-Term Strategy

Recently, a suggestion from one of my viewers got me thinking about freelancing. While I’m hesitant to trade time for money, the practicality of it can’t be ignored. With my skills in photography, videography, and web development, it could be a viable way to boost my income in the short term, helping me clear debts faster and reinvest in my primary goals.

Balancing Freelancing with Content Creation

If I decide to dive into freelancing, it might mean adjusting my focus on YouTube – maybe scaling down to one video a week. It’s all about finding the right balance and ensuring I don’t lose sight of my long-term vision.

Financial Strategies and Small Wins

In terms of financial management, I’ve been setting aside money into a savings account through recurring payments. This method is helping me tackle my debt methodically, and seeing the progress is genuinely motivating.

A Day in My Life

Today was all about juggling multiple responsibilities. After a long shift at work and handling some unexpected situations, I managed to edit a video and plan out some content for my channels. Despite feeling stretched thin, it’s days like these that remind me how every effort counts towards my goal.

Reflecting on Progress and Next Steps

As I wind down for the night, I can’t help but reflect on the progress I’ve made and the decisions ahead. Whether it’s freelancing or sticking solely to content creation, the goal remains the same: building a sustainable income stream that brings me closer to that million-dollar mark.

Looking Forward

Stay tuned for more updates as I continue this journey. Remember, every step, no matter how small, is a step towards achieving our dreams. Let’s keep grinding, learning, and growing together!
