[@TheprophetDJ]

Your the goat man thank you for the advice because I am definitely gonna try a be a content creator on the side

[@kraken7784]

Was it hard to manage your time when you went full time youtube at first?

[@jalenw4379]

Where would you recommend us to post our questions for your podcasts?

[@theblackhokage]

Jalen W Follow me on Twitter. Click the link to my FAQ page in the description of the video. I always tweet when I'm working on show notes and taking questions.

[@jalenw4379]

The Black Hokage alright thanks man

[@solitary2]

TBH saying “I’m making some serious money” makes me greatly appreciate the journey he’s been on. From first finding him on 2012 to now (holy shit, 8 years) the growth, maturity, and development has honestly been inspiring.

[@jacque5599]

This^

[@DarkerThanAmvss]

Here from when this man was ModernWarNegro, this guy is a role model

[@Nickavelli]

This man really a role model. I been taking notes since my high school. I’m working full time as of now. Getting my life together and getting my pc so I can do streaming, gaming, and art on the side. Been takin it slow so I can have the space and consistency to do it and honestly I feel that this summer will the time I actually become consistent with this stuff💯.

[@kempjr5475]

INickavelli no lie his lessons something I put into daily everyday actions

[@alexmercer5414]

Same here

[@rossmalik]

wishing you the best

[@Rabsopetty]

We don't deserve TBH, this man is a fountain of endless gems

[@NeonDreams-bw4ks]

One other thing to add on in regards to being a KZbinr or streamer specifically is inconsistent payment. When you work a 9-5 you can expect a certain amount of money based on hourly pay and how many hours you work. When you’re doing YT or streaming full time there’s no real way of knowing. You have to rely on people subbing or donating and you have to rely on YT clearing your videos for monetization. That can be EXTREMELY stressful especially if you have a family to feed, and not everyone can handle it. There’s a reason you hear some content creators talk about being stressed or having anxiety, and I’m more than wiling to wager finances are one of the big reasons.

[@DarkVadorRulez]

Been here since the ModernWarNegro days and this guy still spits the truth, wish you the best you worked your ass for it!

[@Jermel456]

This is the type of friend I need, a friend who can really motivate and teach you some things.

[@rossmalik]

not too many of those man. when you find one keep each other around.

[@mackandromeda9219]

Be that friend to yourself homie.💪🏿💯 once you come into your own, people on your level will take notice and gravitate naturally. Laws of attraction.👌🏿

[@theaudioLOVER]

Sometimes is difficult especially if you start to switch your priorities. Old Friends start to look at you different when you start meeting new acquaintances to help you on your path to success. Always give old friends the opportunity if you know they have a good heart but you are not obligated to hold their hand if they decide not to move forward with you.

[@Jermel456]

Audio [LOVER] this gotta be the wisest thing I’ve ever seen in a KZbin comment section. I appreciate that advice for real.

[@yungjefe7423]

I gotchu dawg

[@CaseyBurnsInvesting]

An overnight success takes up to 10 years. Preach 🗣 I’m super glad I clicked on this. Good reminder you’re not the average gaming creator.

[@aCeLiFyVS]

I needed this video cause covid made me lose my job at Dell.

[@robogecko8928]

I hope the best man 🙏🏾

[@NYCMIAH]

Super Memeio same

[@xPlatinumGhost]

People really be quitting their jobs when a big streamer boosts them and wonder why those numbers dwindle in a week.

[@ClarifyVI]

appreciate this. we like these.

[@stlrickyjones]

Consistency, Consistency, Consistency...breathe...Consistency. Also never let go of a sure thing for a damn dream.

[@silentninja9391]

Yo tbh I love your vids been watching since black guy tales and ever since then you’ve been one of my favorite youtubers

[@daniloassis8958]

nih gotta bring that back man i remember watching back when i was 14

[@ayoheem]

Bro hell yeah lmao or When he was calling himself Modern War Negro, those where the days

[@tonyfc434]

Bruh same here I still go back and watch those bo2 videos

[@swagtasticpanda]

so i appreciate this clip way harder than your usual content because I've kept my job and did streaming on side. i found myself burnt out kinda badly as far as rushing the between getting viewers and playing games i didn't enjoy but i got my promotion at my job so it could atleast afford to take a break. I'll admit I jumped at this content creator thing from the wrong angles but I'm happy I didn't throw my whole life into it so i wouldn't lose my apartment or hobby.

[@youngapollo8554]

As someone who’s been a fan since the mwn days, it’s great to see how much wiser you’ve become bro. Always learning a little bit from your vids

[@kingofthefall777bulls8]

Crazy I been watching Tbh since 8thgrade now I'm bout to be 21 on the 26th really grew up watching you drop gems 💪❤

[@TheNerdyProfessorPod]

I have been watching your content for Years and THIS video is the one that always comes to mind whenever content creation is mentioned around me. Its a gem.

[@markasberry3867]

I started watching this man when I was 13, I’m 19 now. Crazy to see his growth as a person and a content creator.

[@NaikoArt]

straight facts, if you put the effort it might pay off, but if you're not passionate, that effort is gonna be 3 times harder

[@IMZ44]

This man here is speaking facts. I went through the same ordeal, but my job was working with people mental and physical disabilities. I quit my job because. The people who hired me kept messing up with the paperwork and other stuff I won't get into. Now, I'm back in school, use YT as hobby to keep myself sane/busy. Thanks for the video man! This was truly helpful.

[@ludmarbarbosa575]

The way you grew is inspiring man. Have you ever thought about teaching the process. You accomplished a lot in the timespan.

[@kairlus_]

Man watching you every since your MWN days , you taught me so much stuff from then and even now. When I found your channel in High school , I knew you was gone be one of my role models. You the realest in the game. Damn I can’t believe you been doing this for 12 years. Time fly..

[@smiley6496]

Theres no way to cheat the grind. As I grow older, I used to think as a teenager that I can ‘blow up’ miraculously through some sort of platform. But little did I know that success won’t come quickly. Pateince and alwaysworking on your craft is the key

[@kimod5435]

I'm hyped I found this channel. This man dropping knowledge on almost all his videos.

[@SwAgGeRWiild]

I really grew up with this man ya love to see the evolution

[@Juggajay7]

I been watching you since Modernwarnegro and seeing the growth that you and the channel have taken is amazing. I just started learning about doing content creation and just seeing the amount of work that goes into recording and editing videos,logo,twitch overlays,etc. I have an even greater appreciation for the quality of each of your videos. Thank you the the inspiration and the advice! ✊🏿

[@SpardasTechReviews]

Yeah I started my KZbin the year before KZbin decided to cut monetization off of smaller channels I was at lime 1 to 200 at the time. Honestly if that didn't happen and my channel got even bigger than it is now I'd still probably keep my job because it keeps me active.

[@playboitendo]

I really been learning from this dude since 2012 .

[@bubblegum1647]

I’ve been watching your videos since 6th grade and I graduated high school yesterday. The craziest part? I don’t even play video games. You just make super entertaining content, and I’m so glad you’re able to live off of that. Keep being so amazing man!

[@eternalkick]

It’s not only about speaking things to existence either, it’s about putting in the work to make things happen. Not everything is gonna get handed down to you. Dope words as always TBH. Great stream earlier today. 👊🏾

[@Yaayeri]

To new subscribers, learn from this man. Followed him since 2012, definition of hard work.

[@user-gz5mz4rq2o]

Solid video all the way around thank you for telling ppl the truth.

[@zurisparks]

Yeah, my parents are always on me. I think it’s just finding a balance for me, most jobs I’ve worked at are 2-11pm. Then boom cut hours... I think the journey would be dope though.. so thank you tbh. For the real honest answer to that question.

[@Shinzou954Broward]

I remember this man from the MWN days and he's been talking real shit since then too. I feel this was definitely a word I needed for today. Imma stay on this job until beats and music balances or trumps my current salary.

[@np.161]

Been fucking with you since HS and I’m happy to see you growing and in your bag

[@superpseudo]

This got me so motivated to step my shit up. I think more people need to hear stuff like this too.

[@solomonhunter9649]

This needs to have a million views because people will jump the gun like you said and mess up in life

[@LightninStar13]

A man on his purpose with an abundance mindset

[@amontecantrell1204]

Always appreciative of the knowledge you drop, even if I dont know how to put to good use at this moment!! much love

[@dangeloromero3874]

Dam the wisdom of 13 years work in 9 minutes. And that's just a small corner of the big picture.

[@BigTony015]

[@blazervids]

Always dropping gems 💯

[@iBluairJgR]

Loved this discussion and video! I have to pull up to your podcast more, these laid-back talks are dope TBH. I remember I somehow scrounged up the money to buy a Hauppage HD PVR when that was the go-to/one of the only ways to record LPs for consoles and being super excited to start a KZbin channel when I was 19. I think I burned out just from keeping an honest schedule/editing alone by the time I was 20, almost 21. Content creation is HARD work and I have the utmost respect to any/all folks who even make a solid attempt at getting into the field and even moreso for those who solidify a living from it. I had a lot of fun doing so but it just wasn't something I could sustain while attending school full time. To hear you've been at it for 12 years is really amazing to me. Would encourage anyone who is considering it to just do it, though! Even though I personally gave up on content creation, I gained some soft & hard skills, learned a lot about myself, and gained a lot of confidence just in the two years of creating/running a KZbin channel period. There's value in anything you apply your mind to, it doesn't always have to be "If I don't make it all the way then it was all for nothing." Type shit. Wishing you all the best! Much love y'all, stay safe.

[@YRNRod]

I been watching TBH since 2013, mans really a legend on this platform. Sadly, I got banned off the stream for bringing up MWN days. But, I'm proud to see how far you've come.

[@FattyTwoTimes]

This grind on YT has been a while honestly I’ve Been impatient but I’m learning more and more just take this shit slow and hell I still haven’t even found what I truly wanna do her but I do enjoy it

[@xstoofpeer]

The type of content you're making is kinda dead. Educational content is huge nowadays, so use something you're very good at and teach it on youtube in a simple entertaining way

[@Bofina1]

Keep pushing it will happen!

[@jakandaxter1]

Just rediscovered modern war negro and hearing how much you've changed from back then is astounding. I still really miss the black guy trolling various celestial bodies but like jay z said "niggas want my old shit, buy my old album."

[@itstime3171]

yeah dog from the trolling days back when i first discovered you i think that was like back in 2010 to now, you're the same person, but you've only grown, and become wiser congrats on all yo progress my dude!

[@GAMERWITHAHEMI]

My goal and what I am going to school for is to have my own video production company and make skits that about video games and are educational and do other things like weddings etc streaming on twitch is another thing and other things I started doing things to get the ball rolling but watching this episode makes me cautious now

[@CosMos16R]

This is real knowledge right here.. i appreciate you hard

[@ariffenus310]

You are intelligent bro. Stay up

[@itzzkittens3198]

[@elliottyourse8439]

[@dylan6386]

Great vid Also just wanna add that I think you should play saints row 3 remastered, if you haven’t played it before, mainly because I think it’ll really fit how you play and interact with the chat 🤙🏾

[@rpsenju1418]

I have been watching your content since 2012 when the you were MWN and your brand has evolved tremendously nothing but respect for the black hokage. You getting paid 40 dollars to play games that you can roast and make more bread on?? Genius.

[@pablohuncho29]

Realest nergo in the world I swear

[@Yungbratha]

1000% true

[@bigman52100]

TBH was a teacher?!!! No wonder you be dropping gems and putting us on game with the life advices 🤙

[@RONDOUG]

facts! I make more off instagram than my actual 9-5. Sometimes i get cocky like damn 1 photo just made me more than 40 doubles at my job but then this covid hit and kind of slowed down influencing marketing on instagram. It's always smart to make sure you're set first before diving all the way in,

[@robogecko8928]

I love your content TBH ✊🏾

[@llktmike33tv]

Thank you for this I needed this

[@jsrhedgehog9981]

7:35 Getting Low Tier God flashbacks. (But I don't think TBH will get extreme enough to sacrifice quality for money)
