I Probably Lost $250k Because Of My Ego

Money comes and goes, but it really hurts when it goes.

I have to tell you, as somebody who resells stuff mostly on ebay f/t I wasted alot of time at the dollar stores around that time because of your content. My kids were always happy to go and wander around the dollar stores, so I would go crazy scanning until they got bored. Petty much never found anything that was worth the time to resell.

I tried the candy hustle because of one of your videos. Sold one or two things and ended up just eating the rest of the product lol.

I mean I agree with you most of the time but doesn’t this extreme logic also mean that every movie (including documentaries) about a tragedy, either a sickness or a murder case is wrong and evil just because it shows the story in a way that can be marketed so that it’s actually known and not forgotten by all?

The whole Internet is vying for our attention right now so it makes sense that meaningless clickbait is the way to maximize views. I personally like your videos because you're a relatable smartish guy with some inside intel.

Honestly, your videos were one of the ones that got me into Amazon reselling. Now we put up big numbers and I’m looking at this being a retirement plan for us. A large part thanks to you and your content. I’ve followed you ever since and watch the majority of your videos. Even though it’s changed to eBay content, I still watch a lot of them. The one thing I really miss is the 💩 ending to every video. I totally get your points about how you could have optimized your video production and made a killing. For me, it would be all about automating the video creation using AI and VAs. But keep doing what you’re doing, I love watching your journey.

Just say your video on "selling books is stupid" I agree 100%. Did I here you right that you also have a similar video on "selling clothes is dump" also? Which I also agree with you.

I first considered selling on Amazon because of your Dollar Tree videos. I was selling on eBay at the time and you made selling on Amazon seem obtainable and so eventually I tried partially because of your videos and now it's my full time thing.

I love the way you tell it like it is. I sell only on Marketplace. I have regulars who are a doctor, a nurse, a teacher, etc. And other really great people. But it never ceases to amaze me how many truly stupid, clueless people are out there. 😂

I enjoyed your content you seemed nice so what happened to you? I get making money we all need it but to call people dumb who comment on your videos is just not something I thought wouldn’t come from you! Just another content creator blowing smoke and lying to people making content you don’t care about to make money! And yes I don’t know you and don’t know what changed but I personally like you the other way! Thats just my opinion I know it’s wasting your time but it was just such a sharp turn from all your older stuff.

I have a small cooking channel and one of my videos went viral. I analyzed it and came pretty much to your conclusion. So I tried for a while to redo the success but it didn't work. I gave up and let it go because it started to make me hate cooking. I agree, in general you are definitely better off filming what people want to see than what you want to show. Obviously, youtube wants to push ads and the more engagement you get the better.

[@BeardedPicker]

So, you are saying I should have leaned into the RA video went viral...Intteresting, LOL. I have had this same self talk with my creator self.

[@mediafreak5923]

At least you seem to be self aware
