This goes with adsense youtube partnership and etc...

This is what annoys me. If i can get about 1 thousand a week from youtube partnership im set for a few years from the good ol goverment because well there is like 50 weeks in a year so you make 50 THOUSAND dollers a year.

So you can make a thousand dolla a week from sitting on your ass? This is the best job ever i will just make soo much money from just running fraps? Then puting it on youtube? That is BULLSHIT i mean there are hard working people out there that can barely get a dime and your getting thousands of dollas from sitting on your ass and making videos. And there are greedy **** like the high up youtubers such as pewdiepie smosh who can make hundereds of thousands but yet they dont donate it to charity - to people who need it instead they spend it on them selves but yes they can save some for taxes and basic needs but with the extra cash donate it. but have you ever seen smosh or pewds donate it to like the water charity? Instead keep they keep it for themselves

Just give some money to charity, video makers


Anyway on to the ads part

Ads the way to sell your product. To my eyes they are more of an annoyance especally on the internet

Ex:

Buy this **** car get a free cookie

This deorderent is better than this one get it now

Now i see this on tv and well i sorta see why its there and Its why i dont get pissed off.
On the internet i see no reason to put it on stuff like youtube. "But blarg its to support the video maker" yeah well shaddup. They need to get off thier asses and put thier backs into getting thier money like flipping burgers or sumthin then you will apprichate the hard work that went into making that money not by putting ads in thier faces and sitting on thier chair all the time.

And before you say, yes i have adblock


I dont support ads or making money on the internet its why i use adbock BOO ADS


This post contains more swearing than uisual if anyone finds this offencive i will take it down at request

Yea my grammer is bad dont yell at me.

Tell me what you think.

People who make content on youtube work incredibly hard. They do tons of work behind the scenes that we dont see. Its not just recording and uploading. Also who are you to tell someone how to spend their money? If someone wants to keep their money and not give it to charity thats their choice.

Alot of the youtubers do work really hard to get good and decent content out, plus ads keep sites running.

Most people know hard how it is to get 100 subscribers on YouTube, let alone 1,000,000? That's hard work marketing yourself and appealing to an audience. It sounds to me like you're a bit butthurt you haven't had a killing idea like some popular YouTubers have...

People who get $1000 a week from Youtube had to bust their ass and actually had to invest money to get where they are today. Plus alot of them go to school. so they use their money to pay for their college tuition and for the technology that they use to make their videos (Etc. Better Camera, High Performance Computer, Game Recorders, and more). They also have to pay bills and save money like any other person does.

Sigh.

Alright, so here's the thing. It isn't easy becoming a YouTube sensation. It requires a lot of hard work, and effort to market yourself and get yourself out there, and to maintain and grow a consistent set of fans. Many of these YouTubers have to invest thousands in their equipment in order to keep doing what they're doing. While it's undeniably true that YouTubers have it easier than a lot of others, they still put in a lot of effort and time in creating, editing, and producing their content. Is it more enjoyable than flipping burgers? To a lot of people, yes it is. However, you shouldn't hate them because they found a profession that they like to do. Is it work? Yes, but, if you find a profession you like, you won't have to work a day in your life. I'm sorry if you don't find one that YOU like, but they did, so you shouldn't hate on them. They aren't obliged to donate their money to charity, and it's not like they make A LOT of money after production costs and stuff.

On to your second "rant" about ads. Advertisements are one of the most important, if not the most important revenue source for most websites. Just like on TV, where the networks and the shows need money, on the internet, advertisements are needed in order for websites to gain money. How else would a site like TTG or YouTube gain money? When people click on the ads, or in some cases, even see one, sites like YouTube and TTG gain money. This money is what is used to pay for server costs, other costs, and to pay the site owners/developers. Now, just focusing on YouTube, you have to realize that YouTube hosts billions upon billions of hours of videos. All of this is put on servers, which cost money to maintain and run. While Google itself is a multi-billion dollar company, it doesn't want to operate on a loss with YouTube, which is why ads are put on the site. Certain partners gain money directly from Google, as an incentive to host more content on their site. Anyways, to wrap this up, ads are needed, as internet companies like Google, TheTechGame, IGN, Facebook, Twitter, and most others need them to survive.
