Earned $700 a Month on YouTube at Age 73

[00:02] trend on YouTube. Older people, 50-60+, start YouTube channels, share their wisdom, and their videos are doing really well. [music] Look at these views. 300,000, 8 million. And here is our student’s channel. He is 66

[00:17] years old and has gained 7,000 subscribers in a short period of time . His videos get 80, 50, [music] 30,000 views. And this woman, for example, started a channel at 73 years old, reached monetization and earned $700 [music] in a

[00:30] month. Or, for example, Larry launched the channel on July 4th last year with the help of his seventeen-year-old granddaughter. [music] No teleprompters, no editing. And in this money he earned. [music] In August $1.00, in September $400. Here

[00:44] comes September. I made about 400 dollars. I don’t know, I did n’t even count my subscribers back then. In November, as much as $860. He ended up earning $3,800 in 5 months working [music] part-time. Or, take Lian, who lost her job at

[00:58] 63. And it was the dismissal that became the trigger. She finally launched a YouTube 1924, but had been putting off due to fear and self-doubt. She reached monetization in 12 days. She talks about it herself in this video. And so in

[01:11] March she showed it in the studio and earned $400 with monetization. And I think it’s so cool to start a YouTube channel at such an age, because, firstly, many people already have what they lack, and young people have

[01:23] time. There is no need to be torn between studies, career or trying to find [music] yourself. Secondly, YouTube gives you the opportunity to become visible again. This woman, who started the channel after 70 years old, said a very powerful phrase. She

[01:37] to feel invisible in a world that seems to be made only for older people feel that. The children grew up, my career ended, and my social circle became smaller. It seems that society is more interested in listening to twenty-year-old

[01:51] influencers than to people who have their whole lives behind them. But YouTube works differently. It doesn't matter how old you are here. The only thing that matters is whether people are interested in what you say. And it turns out, as you can see from the views, millions of people

[02:03] are ready to listen to the stories, experiences, and views of a person who is 60, 70, or even 80 years old. Because, unlike young people, you have something that we don’t have, such as life experience. Look at this video format. They are all

[02:18] years” to understand what I will tell you there in 10 minutes. They all get a huge number of views, and this is proof that people want to listen to you. If a young guy records such a video , no one will

[02:31] watch it, but they will watch you, [music] because they trust you. Many people think, “Oh, I’m already 50 years old, it’s too late for me to start a YouTube channel.” This is exactly what you need, because age is not a limitation, on the contrary, it is your powerful

[02:46] young people do not have. For example, here is the channel of our student Alexey. I already mentioned him, he is 66 years old. Looks great. He has so much knowledge and wisdom. And even the way he, uh, looks at his age,

[02:58] [music] the result is already obvious, yes, you already trust him, and you want to listen to his knowledge and wisdom that he shares. He runs a channel about longevity, rejuvenation, energy, and quality of life after forty. And when he came to

[03:11] our academy, he also had doubts. He was the oldest member of our class, but everyone constantly admired him. And here are the results of his views. There is another reason why I like the idea of ​​starting YouTube

[03:25] after 50-60 years. In general, we are used to thinking that with age the brain begins to work worse, but in fact the brain retains neuroplasticity [music] throughout that he is able to create new neural connections even after 60-70 [music]

[03:40] years. But for this he needs a constant load. That's why scientists are constantly talking about the importance of learning new languages ​​there, mastering new skills, traveling, meeting [music] new people and getting out of this

[03:53] familiar routine, yes. And YouTube fits all of these criteria perfectly because you're essentially learning a new skill, you have to understand new technologies, learn how to speak on camera, work with content, master editing,

[04:06] analyze your audience, and constantly receive new information. And this is a great load for the brain. In essence, you're not just starting a channel, but you [music] workout. And I think it's much more beneficial than just watching TV

[04:20] one thing to consume information passively, and quite another why many people who continue to study, [music] travel and try even new things in old age, look and feel

[04:34] much younger than their years. And another reason why I like [music] so much is the idea, and it's self-expression. When we are young, we have, ah, a lot of tasks, work, career, we constantly interact with the world. But as

[04:50] people get older, they gradually start to feel less needed, less visible, and YouTube gives them the opportunity to share their people again. [music] For some, it becomes a new hobby, for others, a

[05:04] way to find like-minded people, and for others, an opportunity to leave something valuable behind. [music] And what's most interesting is that today, through YouTube, it's such a cool platform, and thanks to it, you can even earn money from your experience

[05:18] monetize your age, your expertise, your experience that you teacher, a psychologist, an entrepreneur, an engineer. You have decades of experience behind you that people are willing to pay for. Through

[05:32] your YouTube channel, you can conduct consultations, create educational clients, or simply earn [music], for example. And I think this is a more

[05:44] interesting retirement scenario than just watching TV, yes, again. [music] So if you're 50, 60, or 70 and you think it's too late for you opposite. Perhaps now is the best time for you to start. And how exactly to

[05:59] do this, I told in this or in this video, I’ll link it. Go ahead and take a look. Thanks a lot. And we'll see you in the next [music] video. see you in the next [music] video. Bye bye. Yeah.
