Im pretty sure youtubers make more than people think. Especially if they have tons of followers. The model 3 "truckla" was actually well done, and i think id rather hve something like that than the cyber truck.. That thing is just.. eww. haha


Nope. Not unless you have a successful Patreon side hustle.

Most people make about 3 dollars per thousand views of their video. So to make back 70k you would need to have 23 million views on a video. Glwt....

From Forbes....

Logan Paul started his YouTube channel in 2015, but it didn’t take long for his channel to explode. He has over 18 million subscribers as of early 2019, and Forbes reports he had 2018 earnings of $14.5 million.

So making a million dollars per month would easily cover the cost of cutting a Tesla up to generate a few more views. Most kids learned what Tesla is from YouTube and their influencers.

Two things you're forgetting. If they start getting popular, youtube will often start paying them to create more content.

Second they start getting paid sponsors as well so they will say, "Here at "weruinteslas" we like to play just as much as we like to ruin Teslas and right now we are playing Clash of Pigeons. Clash of Pigeons isn't just any other game that requires you to spend a years salary in micropayments to win. No, they will let you give them the title to your car, the deed to your house, even jewelry that you just don't like anymore in exchange for a 5 minute boost in attack points. So play Clash of Pigeons today! But make sure you don't give them your phone so you can keep watching us ruin teslas." in their videos.

They probably aren't making millions most of the time. But six figures is not out of the realm of possibility at all. There is at least one youtuber in the UK who only started doing videos after he bought his Model 3. He only makes content about his Model 3 or Tesla in general, and announced that six months in the money from making the videos had allowed him to pay off the Model 3 entirely already.

The biggest problem with making money as a youtube content creator is sustaining the level of viewership over time. Most channels have a short windows of high popularity and then dwindle quickly.

It’s at 12 million views and counting. I believe she bought a base Model 3, so likely not $70k.

Because it's hard work. I've worked with people who gave up "day jobs" to become content creators. Producing the content itself is time consuming and full time job. Doing everything else required to build up a following and generate revenue is an 80+ hour a week job.

I was responding to the s pickup, and the other video that showed an s cut up with motorcycles on the back.

that said she is likely at break even...

If I recall correctly the S pickup was a used S, perhaps even a totaled one. In the photo you can see damage to the rear lower door. There are several videos featuring it so its probably paid for itself several times over.

But by all means keep flexing.

All you have to do is google “how much does YouTube pay” yet you choose to remain ignorant...
