## Summary

### Key Points

- **Income sources** [00:00] — The YouTuber earns $10,000 a month, with $100–$200 per video from brand deals and occasional Snapchat checks that once hit $8,000 a day, though Snap is cutting those payments.

## Transcript

So you make $10,000 a month. What do you do for a living? I'm a prank YouTuber. But $10,000 a month, break down those sources. Yeah, okay. So a lot of it's coming from brand deals. So for example, they'll send me like a product.
I get like $100 to $200 per video doing that. Every once in a while, I get a check from Snapchat. I made $8,000 a day. That's going to be going down substantially. Snap is cutting that heavily. They already have been, yeah. And you'll be on Snap. No, don't. Okay, that's crazy.
That was a finance joke for you. Yeah, I did. On the finance show. It went right over my head. Very true. I'm more of like a hustler. I just do what I can to get money every day. Hustle is good as long as it's legal and moral. But it is not moral to unconsensually film people on the street for your financial gain.
Tell me if this is moral. I did a video. I made a whole bunch of sandwiches, right? And I was giving them out to the homeless. Very nice. No, not moral. Because you're using the homeless for your own financial gain. No, I'm really not. If you did that and didn't film it, I would give it to you.
But you're putting cameras in people's faces and not getting consent for it. And they're making prank content. And it's bad. So what did you do before the show? You didn't make other content. You just went straight to a podcast. That was your dream. This is your dream. Correct.
This is your dream. Correct. What's your point? It's kind of sad, bro. Oh, no. Millions of dollars in a nice house. That's horrible.
