Well said Bob. Just one thing to add, it is never too late! I am proof of this. My channel only took off 4 years ago and is now making a full time living. You just need to find a unique idea and be consistent

I agree with your comments, Bob. I too spend much more time on YouTube than watching television. My interests are many and varied, from mechanical engineering, to welding, to electronics, to automotive engineering, to steel fabrication, to mechanical repairs, to music and more.
Interestingly, it is clear that people are making a comfortable existence from YouTube.
Rick Beato (whose skills are highly regarded) released his latest offering on August 12 and it has clocked more than 1.3 million views in a couple of days. He also has more than 3 million subscribers.
The LockPickingLawer creates very short videos (3-5 minutes) every few days. His videos must be of interest as he has 4 million subscribers and regularly hits between half and one million views for each episode.
And there are many, many more like them. So in many ways it's a win-win. They make a 'comfortable' income, and provide entertainment that beats commercial television any day.

I just wish YouTube would be a more pleasant venue for us casual users who upload primarily to share with family and friends. J&B

If you want to make a business or career out of YouTube, it is possible with some work. However, it is a little like a “monster” that needs constant feeding.

J&B A couple of ways to do this. One is simple, just use one of the cloud sharing services that allows larger file sizes than email and just send your stuff directly to family and friends. The other is understanding how YT works. Yes they know if anything you put up is copyrighted but it's not all taken down. It's up to the rights holder. Tons of big name covers of classic songs are still up and have been for years. If the owner is ok with it being up you're good or it gets monetized but the money goes to them and they're ok with that then no problem either. It's only the ones who don't allow any covers of their material at all on YT that you'll have a problem with. An easy check of that is search YT for the song you want to upload. If you see several covers that have been up for a while you're probably ok with doing another one. When certain creators who are making a living off YT complain about this they're not saying they can't post copywritten stuff, they're complaining they get demonetized because of a 10 second clip out of a 20 minute video that caused YT to do that. That has nothing to with you posting a cover if you don't care if you're making any money off it or not. Bob

Wow. A bit off topic but talk about making money on YouTube. One of my favorite military channels Task and Purpose just got a new sponsor. Dell. Yes, that Dell. He's a bit of a comedian but he's also a young and serious military commentator who refers to himself as an average infantryman who loves making jokes about officers. I know some of you guys here are also vets and like gun related stuff. One of his vids was testing a Russian combat helmet against all kinds of pistols and rifles and it was junk. Out of all the channels I follow he's the first to bag a big name like that.
