There’s no shame in talking about how much you two make on this channel, you get paid fairly for the content you produce, you two make real quality content that is original and interesting better than some you tubers who are stealing a living by creating shit and unoriginal videos with terrible clickbait only trying to hit the ten minute mark.

As someone of the older generation (30+) that was a really honest and insightful video. You didn’t come across once like you was bragging. It just gives people and insight into what kind of money you could earn in that industry if you make engaging and top content as a KZbin channel. All the best in the future.

6:55 I work in construction...to answer your question, the flooring of your terrace is probably on a pedestal type system. The rainwater (and shower water) filters through underneath the flooring to a rainwaterpipe that is probably within the internal facade and taken down the building. Rain water pipes are now hidden well within buildings and out of sight.

If the Skylight leaks get your landlord to fix it, legally he is supposed to and he would want (probably) to stop further damage One of the only benefits on renting is you don't have to pay for any repairs

[@halfbakedproductions7887]

"get your landlord to fix it" Funny story, do tell it again. Must be like my old landlord who turned up in an Audi A6 and Brook Taverner clothing to tell me that he was a bit short right now and couldn't replace the washing machine this month. Buying your home (if you can) is so liberating in many ways.

Why even bother with London with those rent prices? You can get a mortgage for a 4 bedroom house in a Rural Town in the North or Midlands for that less than that £1k you spend a month for a average place, plus does that include your room mate so essentially landlord is getting £2k a month, £24k a year for a place what would cost £80k tops in some Rural Northern area, these days even out of London Mortgage is cheaper than Rent which is funny since it's hard to get a mortgage even though everyone pays more in rent Not like you need to be in London 🤣 Renting is a scam so if I had the money I would get like a Park Home with Low or no Park fees

[@iwanjoness]

You pretty much need to be in London for brand deals and video shoots. It's not like they can't afford it anyway and they'd probably prefer living in the city itself than having to travel in
