I Hate My Job and Quit !! Can I Survive Off YouTube $$ In The Wilderness? (Ep12)

[@Kingilization]

Its not a cabin channel, its Reality TV. Just put out a video no matter what. It's the story that's interesting just as much as actual progress.

[@meturns4666]

Soon true

[@isaacclark6749]

I agree

[@echoravenrider932]

Keep going. Keep filming it all. Struggles too. We are on your side!

[@colin8532]

Well said, excellent point!

[@jeffroberts1834]

He is absolutely right, take us on your weekly journey. We're onboard. I'm excited to see more videos.

[@kb_ehh]

You were in my town buying the boat. My family is close by if you need anything please feel free to shoot me a mesg. My dad actually lives even closer he's in Bear Lake. Great videos.

[@saml3134]

bro actually did what we all dream about

[@dominicdiggler]

Amen !!

[@marcinha1973]

Loose all your money? I mean I hope the best for him, but the competition on KZbin is strong. So far I haven’t seen any grand idea for the channel for him to stick out from a million others. Again, fingers crossed he makes it.

[@WanderingWilfords]

We don’t need a building video each week just update on how your week went and your activities during the week. Consistency is the key no matter what you’re filming.

[@missindependent1973]

Yes, just general vlogging….like the one he did with the doggo. I find him just an interesting person all around ❤

[@EnhancedSimplicity]

​@missindependent1973 me too

[@MrBotwood]

Living vicariously through you buddy!! No matter what the content, keeps throwing up the videos and I'll keep watching them!

[@MichaelUt]

I’ve been following since the beginning. I know this channel will grow fast and be very popular. Loved every video! Keep it going. !!!

[@cabinriveroutdoors]

Original follower! Love it

[@granthamilton2695]

Good on ya mate. You won’t die wondering what might have been. You be you it’s what makes your stuff so engaging. Regards from Far North Queensland , Australia

[@kenwilson7951]

I have lived off grid 35years there are many crafts you can produce from the wilderness and make more money than a job.

[@SailorGerry]

Dinkum Mate! Was in Oz back in 1980; my brother and a mutual close friend took the train from Sydney to Perth and then by rental car up 'round the top, and back down to Sydney. Great time, great blokes and the beer is always cold! Your desert areas are the most interesting and beautiful, but damn - everything wants to main, kill or eat you there; even a beautiful little sea shell! Even a bird wants to disembowel you - yikes!!! All the best, from Montreal, Quebec...

[@meturns4666]

Don't depend on KZbin as an income .. Set you life on the love of the wilderness and construction of your cabin and the long term plan of that .. Film you doing that with the overall plan of actually surviving and thriving in your awesome property , ..KZbin come or go , any incoming revenue will be a huge bonus .. Everything you've filmed so far is quality and your work hard and real , film more of that and have faith we will stay to watch .. I've personally enjoyed and thrived from you adventures so far and looking to many more , cheers Clay sending you much regards from Melbourne Australia..

[@miriammigliacci9427]

I’ve binge watched you all day, that’s my new normal, lol! No, but seriously, I’m a school administrator in special education and I’m searching for something else! I camp ⛺️ on every vacation I get! I admire you. Keep putting out videos. I’m living vicariously through people just like you! Push on!

[@jksurvivalbushcraft]

I agree with everyone else, just film you doing what you’re doing. Most of us would love to be doing what you’re doing instead of our normal lives. So keep it up, I’ll watch every week, comment and share. Would love to see you make enough to keep on going!

[@Nena84734]

I remember you building that trail, so brutal but it actually looks great now! Fantastic you’ve got yourself a good boat, giant leap forward! Dang, so lucky to have that Starlink for now, you’re going to be so spoiled! I’m super happy for you taking this huge leap of faith, you’ve got yourself an amazing channel and I’m sure can can make a go of it!

[@bottledungdungwekwek]

You can do it mate, you content is solid and interesting. I will comment and like every video !

[@TheC0L0Rx3]

I subscribed within 2 minutes of starting the first video. Now I’m binge watching to catch up! Love the no nonsense style and watching your journey as you live a life so many of us dream of! What beautiful property to call home!

[@sheamalcolmson5037]

Nice one brutha. I’m in Manitoba and waiting for the moment I say “I’m out” to my work. I’ll be watching and trying to rack up a couple cents for ya.

[@TURBOAWDWRX]

You've GOT this! I recently discovered your channel and am LOVING it, keep it up and you will prevail! I have mobility issues and chronic health concerns so I can no longer go out and do many of the things I once did, getting to see you do these things, in the wild, on your own, is a great joy for me since I've lost the capacity to do them myself, I'll be watching as long as you keep making videos!!

[@PeterCalvert-bc8ey]

You could look at an electric fence for around your cabin. There are solar and battery setups that would work where you are. Your channel will grow because you are real and authentic. Keep up the good work.

[@BUCKSTALKER123]

Man I admire what your doing, I am a single fulltime father of 2 babies. This is my life, but I would love to move out to the wilderness some day

[@mlklkgamagadi]

I'm a single mother of 2 living in the village and trying to build my homestead. Keep up the great work. It's not easy being a single parent,🫂

[@ervintaylor6508]

Do it man I'm here for the Long haul I felt like from you're very first video you were going to make it I subscribed immediately!!!

[@isaacclark6749]

Same here

[@jeffroberts1834]

ditto

[@simonholman7286]

Yes same here, it's been a great ride untill now and we have missed your progress through the winter, keep it going mate

[@theharringtons2010]

Watching from the UK..I cant imagine having bears turning up where I live..I find it facinating you share your home with dangerous animals like bears

[@glacialmobbs7657]

You should visit Canada next summer and experience B.C. for yourself,you might never leave.

[@C5Naturel]

Hey man, it would be a great idea to setup a hydro generator. much more reliable than solar and being so close to a very strong stream of water you could generate so much more and much more consistend!

[@neutonrenda2303]

It must've felt absolutely amazing taking that first ride out in your newly acquired boat. It looks like it's going to take loads very well.

[@triggertk]

dont worry, keep doing what uve done so far and youre gonna do great on youtube in to time

[@mikeveilleux1592]

This channel is great cause it's real. You don't have everything figured out. Perfect. You're showing hits and misses. Perfect. It makes it seem not as daunting of a possibility for someone like me to attempt, minus the KZbin channel.

[@Roger_Clarence]

HUGE Congratulations, Shawn!!! Always remember, the first step is always the most challenging, but more importantly… If you take that first step, The universe will always meet you half way & provide. You create great content, whether it’s an adventure or your working on a build, the viewers enjoy you, because that’s just your character. Wishing you abundance tenfold, keep your eye on the prize, my friend Ps Now you can totally get a dog, how awesome would that be!!

[@cabinriveroutdoors]

Thanks Roger! That's awesome

[@maurydixon7246]

Man you rock. You are the kind of man that built this country. Dont stop doing what you are doing. We seriously enjoy every video. The bad and the good. Thanks dude. I have a feeling you will be rewarded .

[@cabinriveroutdoors]

Wow. Thanks Maury!

[@jimhackney2166]

I'm late to the game and you probably don't read comments on old videos but in case you do and are still looking for that spring, I would respectfully suggest that you explore around that old trappers cabin across the river. The oldtimer who built it likely built it there for a reason. That reason may have been a spring close by. You've probably already thought about that though.

[@wwgbert]

Such an incredible time we are living in now, makes you really appreciate those pioneers that were doing this with much less in the 1800's and early 1900's. One that note may I suggest a amazon wish list or a P.O Box in that supply town, I am sure people would chip in to help if needed. Just a suggestion, keep the rubber side down and always remember to smile.

[@CaptSavoury]

I got recommended this video, and had to go back to the start. Glad i did, what an adventure so far. Don't be afraid to ask for likes and subs, you deserve em 🤝

[@cantthinkof123]

Well you got a new sub from the UK dude! Good luck with the channel my friend. That's a whole lottery work . Props to you 👏

[@marcdallaire2405]

Awesome video. I as well have been watching from day one. Glad you bit the bullet to make it your dream. Love the boat an excellent decision. Bigger boat motor might definitely be a future purchase, but one step at a time. That bear will be back and might bring a friend, so be prepared.. Creative way to clean the air filter. If you ever have to do that again and even as a regular maintenance on equipment just use a little gasoline and rinse well then let them dry out. Works amazing. Cheers. Red Deer, Ab

[@cabinriveroutdoors]

Love it. Thanks Marc !

[@mfree9202]

Those pesky bears, thanks for the video. Roughen the area around the holes in the boot, melt some plastic, then somehow cover over the holes to make a good seal. Need to figure out a way of keeping your most valuable items secure so the bears can't cause you too much hassle. Enjoying the videos, keep them coming

[@mountaindweller3604]

I was thinking same thing, especially secure the Starlink.

[@mikecrawford7352]

A great video. Most people probably would have skipped right to transporting to the cabin. It’s nice to see things as they happen and not so orchestrated that it’s like there is an army of people laying everything out for them. My advice is work and do what you need to do around your cabin building scouting trail work cable car etc 5 days a week while filming what you can or want to film and try and do a supply run one day and edit and post the video on another. Rinse and repeat. Don’t burn yourself out If you can’t get a weekly video out don’t stress about it. I wish I could be doing the same thing as you or out there helping.

[@clintsbrown]

Heck yeah Shawn!!! LETS GOOOO MAN !!! living my dream. as others said ... even if the videos arent you building or making progress - just post them. people like me love to watch anything to pass the time LOL. rooting for you man. long time subscriber here from the first video !!!

[@cabinriveroutdoors]

Original Sub!

[@emanuel290]

Such a great find! This reminds me of vintage KZbin and im 100% here for it! Just a dude with a camera in the woods building a castle! How bloody good!!

[@milzdtn]

Just gotta say I am loving Cabin River Outdoors! I somehow watched your first video like the day it came out and was actually surprised, like how this is his first video!? You got an immediate subscribe from me, love watching this mission of yours it's very inspiring.

[@cgrite2468]

Good for you!! I hope you are successful!! Love the vids!

[@royreese993]

Never give up on your dreams, Do what makes you Happy, Keep the Videos Coming , From Ocala Florida USA . Thank's

[@mikepagliei426]

Good luck man!! Love your “originality “. And no your not a idiot.

[@TeslaPrince]

Love your persistence, keep living the dream, if you don't try it will never happen so taking a risk may lead to bigger dreams!

[@KevinCullen]

Your approach to all this is nothing short of inspirational. Been watching your videos from the first one and with each one you're biting off bigger bites (love to see it), can't live the dream unless you go for it, you got this man. Wish I could lend a hand but it's not my dream, it's yours. Best wishes from Ireland!

[@rubentieken2065]

Bonn, Germany here. Don't know how you popped up on my feed but glad you did. (I do watch quite a few other Canadians on KZbin) Really enjoy your stuff. Keep going!

[@cabinriveroutdoors]

Germans love this channel. That's amazing. Thank you Ruben

[@jingliu8291]

I like the videos , I think it’s good. Put your heart at where you want. Never stop learning, whether if from the advice of others or self learning.

[@davidhowell2456]

Just the title alone earned my sub! As I’ve told my own kids, nothing worth having is easy to achieve. So hang in there and go live the dream young man!!! 👍 this veteran approves!

[@daelanw]

I'm always impressed by the amount of work you are willing to put in. Keep it up, I will be here watching as long as you're putting out videos.

[@MoroMoro1]

Your inspirational. Going full steam ahead into the life you want to live. Nothing worse than working a job you hate, and only doing it to live. Wishing you the best. I know you'll do great out there!

[@Ryguy3000r]

Get trail cams or camera feed of property when you are away. You will catch some wild animal interactions.

[@dccheek7495]

You will do well,you’re doing what many want to do but can’t find a way to do yet .

[@andrewpostma7640]

My only issue with how you're living at the cabin I your kitchen situation. At the very beginning when you were cooking under the lean to I thought " isn't he just attracting bears , especially leaving pots and pans outside hanging up ?" And then the very next time you left the cabin the bear came and trashed the site. I am worried you are going to end up with a VERY big problem if you don't make an indoor kitchen at least to store your stuff. Loving this series though !!! Best of luck , but PLEASE do something about your cooking situation. Cheers !

[@cabinriveroutdoors]

I agree. The main problem will come if they get into an actual food source.

[@homefreeacres1791]

i have watched all your videos from the begining and i love it! I am a big fan of these type of channels! Its the real deal,so thanks for your effort.Ihope evryone supports you in every way possible. i will check to see if you have wish list or donation page too! PLEASE ALL WHO SEE THIS,HELP AND SUPPOET THIS YOUNG MAN! Keep the videos omining man!take care!

[@cabinriveroutdoors]

Wow! Thank you haha. That's awesome

[@mikebrunner1577]

Thanks for actually explaining. I really enjoy your videos. Do not worry, i am positive i am not the only one who loves to see what you do. You can do this.

[@mc9551]

Good for you. You don't have to always be building I enjoy the adventures you take away from the cabin as long has you continue to take us along.

[@judyschepp8748]

I AGREE🎉🎉🎉❤❤

[@Pinchoflove2024]

Dude, keep the videos coming!! It's great seeing and watching canadian content!!

[@jayone7437]

I’m quite enjoying your vids. Yes it’s tough but once you get set up and into a groove it gets easier. Thanks for all your hard work.

[@gerhardkok6613]

Awesome work that you put into everyday!!! There is always a good pay-off along the line for hard work:the effort always pays. I want to thank you for sharing your life with others on KZbin. Keep up the good work.

[@spartakus24au]

Good luck mate on giving it a good hot red go! Enjoy your videos and their authenticity. Gday from Australia

I can tell you at 51 years old, I’m jealous. Love the channel, great content, I’m cheering for you. You can do this.

[@stephen9937]

Honda build the best generators…. Respect from Ireland 🇮🇪

[@tackleland3452]

It is all about the journey, the mistakes, how you learn, how we learn by watching you day to day. Boiling the filter, I would not have thought of it! The more you experience, the more we experience. Well done and thank you.

[@ispringle]

Starlink is wild. I live in the middle of a national forest and can work from home because of Starlink. Absolutely a game changer for those of us a million miles from telephone lines.

Proud of you! You've got this. Can't wait to follow your journey. Be safe. ❤

[@greenbankreptiles]

So much respect to you Shawn!

[@buffalolizard]

Shawn, good on you and glad you are back. Keep the bear banger handy, the bears may eventually try to tear into your plywood cabin. Awesome programming! The trail looked great, however crossing the two streams will require the boat. I too have been here since the beginning. In three years you will reach 300,000 suscribers!

[@jgeo2378]

Glad you are doing what you dream. Stay safe. Love your channel.

[@thomasdausch8557]

Nice to see another video here from you,, keep the vids coming and your channel will grow well. be careful out there stay safe ,, all the best wishes to you sir,, greetings from Florida

[@lindanoland-pv1pb]

I really enjoy your channel. Try to post two videos weekly. One can be short, maybe talking about what your plans are and the second can be longer showing your work. Also, give us a property tour. Good luck!

[@cabinriveroutdoors]

I'll see what I can do. Thanks!

[@neutonrenda2303]

It's totally unthinkable to be able to leave anything out over any time expecting to find it when you return here in South Africa. If your car gets parked anywhere that's not in a suburban setting at least, you can't count on having wheels left. I've seen a car turned onto it's roof so that they could get at the gearbox. I definitely need to relocate.👍

[@briargoatkilla]

Stay away from the large cities, but pretty much anywhere in America or Canada will be better than what you described.

[@isaacclark6749]

It's pretty risky there as well, lots of stuff gets stolen in BC

[@wesleyBringsOtter]

Greetings youngman, my name is Brings Otter. I live on the smallest reservation in South Dakota along the Big Sioux River. Im retired for some time now. I am in the process of giving my house to one of my daughters to live in and as I write this I am dealing on a 12 X 18 storage shed type that I am going to renovate into a mini home for myself and my black labs. Its a win/win I get the mini home and my daughter gets free rent. Plus I get 6 grandchildren 4 boys who I plan to use building a nice little fishing house for us down in the woods along the river. I fully support what your doing youngman, you are going to come out of this a wiser more compassionate man. I want and plan on showing my support to you, actually I have to have my son show me that operation, you can tell my age by that lol I remember in college if we wanted a small survey to be calculated it took a stack of punch cards then to the computer science lab turn the cards in and two days later you got your two page survey results. I digress ..... keep your goal in mind remember tough times never last, tough people always do! Im gonna keep an eye on you youngman! Each morning our way is to pray to the morning star, you have my prayers, Ohan Mitakuyaoyasin ( we are all related)

[@CynthiaYackenchick]

Looking forward to seeing how your week has progressed next Thursday.

[@caroloum5323]

I agree with the comments. Just keep doing what your doing. Where interested in what you do. You get better and more at ease with every video you make so hang in there. Love the Cabin...

[@lynsmith2698]

I am not sure why bears love plastic so much, buckets, snow machine seats and I had one bite the plastic coated bumper of my car. Glad your genny is running better. Great videos 🇨🇦❄️

[@colin8532]

Hey bud, congratulations on making the leap and leaving a job that you hated. I stayed at a job I hated for 20 years and it darn near killed me! Just a thought, if you start a members section, I would gladly join, as I'm sure many others would as well. It would help get you some extra cash for some unexpected expenses. Even if it's just enough to buy you some groceries, I'm sure that would help you out.

[@missindependent1973]

I was just going to comment the same thing 👍

[@funnyxguy]

Love the content, keep it coming! Hope you succeed. Best regards from my office chair in Denmark :)

[@cabinriveroutdoors]

I was in Kopenhagen this time last year. Thank you

[@garrettthornton3086]

Should be an awesome adventure! Excited to keep following along. Thanks as always for sharing
