I Started A Youtube Channel at 50 | WHY You Should Do It at 40, 50, 60+

From my very first video in August 2022, documenting our 2019 trip to Singapore and Bali, to becoming a KZbin partner in June 2024, this journey has been incredible. We've traveled to amazing places like Greece, learned new skills, and connected with so many wonderful people. Our channel celebrates our lives as a gay married couple, aiming to inspire others in the LGBTQ+ community to share their stories. With over 80 long-form videos, 650,000 views, and nearly 4,000 subscribers, we've faced challenges but persisted through our passion for content creation. This video shares our highs, lows, and everything in between. Join us as we continue to explore, learn, and create together.

Thank you for sharing, I started my travel KZbin Channel at age 52 last year. I am learning and growing alot! And yes it is hard some days, and I wonder if it is worth it, BUT I am enjoying the journey and process. Thank you for the reminder, and inspiration to keep going, keep pushing forward and chasing my dreams! 🙂

[@carlventures]

Thank you, @lindamarietravel. The “why” of doing it keeps the fire ignited and as you said, doing it because we love it takes center stage and everything else will just fall where they’re supposed to. 🙏

Thank you for sharing as I've been contemplating about starting one. This was very honest and real. And about the niche I feel that putting whatever makes you who you are on your channel makes people not even think about what someone niche is.🤗 Like this is my first time coming across your video for motivating myself to start my channel and I don't know your niche at ALL this my first time and just your message alone got me to click that button 🤗

[@carlventures]

@Meg.A.DarkAlienWriter Thank you for your heartfelt comment. Like you, I was also inspired by others and your decision to begin your journey is inspiring to me as well. I’m a firm believer that there is a time and season for everything. We’re never late. Never early. We’re just on time. Savor the freedom to create and when you do things from your heart, the authenticity translates to your work product and I have no doubt that others will appreciate it. Sending you all the positive vibes and I can’t wait to watch your creations. 🙏

@@carlventures You are so right about that! Thank you so much for your message and inspiring others that’s watching 🤗

First - Thank You for your Service! Second, great message! Thank you for sharing and I definitely will be checking out more of your content. I'm just now really focusing on my channel in that I've got a face for Podcasting - NOT KZbin. But like you said I too am trying to grow and learn new aspects of content creation. It's my passion too and I want to support others who share the same passion of sharing our stories.

[@carlventures]

@brandonkellerdotnet Much appreciated! I’m honored for your comment and I too would like to learn more about your channel. The evolution continues and I’m always looking forward to how my channel will do just that in the months and years to come! The possibilities are endless. 👍🏼

@@carlventures I'm really looking forward to your Paris Olympics travel series. It kind of feels like now I have a friend who is going to the Olympics this year. LOL Yeah, I'm gonna live vicariously through you two . . . hope that's okay! My channel is in it's infancy to be honest, but I'd love to hear any suggestions, tips, etc. you may have on growing it. Since you're a Gen-X'er too maybe you'll enjoy my content? idk - let me know.
