NRM What YouTube Paid Me for 6 Months

This is it. The video you've been asking for. The payout for six months is...well...almost embarrassing to talk about! You have made this channel quite successful in so many ways! Thank you!

Hi. I accidentally came across your channel ½ hour ago, and it's one of the best accidents that has ever happened to me. I am almost 56 and for the last 6 years (at least) the clutter in and around my home has impacted tremendously on my mental health. To be honest, I don't know where to begin but after watching one of your episodes, it has already helped put me in the right direction. Thank you

[@TheNewRetiredMe]

Thank you! I’m glad you found us!

[@jannekh2]

I recommend you watch all the videos on other topics. He talks very honestly about the journey through changing life moments… I find it inspiring my own contemplation.

[@LynsAlteredArts]

Wendy, do you watch the queens of organizing, and decluttering in my opinion. Dana K. White, The Minimal Mom, Clutterbug, Shannon Torrens.

[@jannekh2]

I also recommend The Carla Project…

[@GoingGreenMom]

Tim has been great for me kind of reverse engineering the retirement thing. I am what I call covid retired..... I'm 40, and have health issues. When the shut downs happened in March of 2020 I lost my job along with them. Before that I had an eye on the FIRE community, but felt hopeless to ever get to normal retired age retirement, much less early retirement. Due to some money my Dad left I was able to plan out a year off to keep myself safer. I still got it, twice actually, but it didn't matter that I was in bed for a month the first time because the bills were still paid. I'm still off work, almost 4 years later, and am really looking at life a little differently. Tim is helping me get the retirement mindset figured out, so I can go back to work in a manner that it isn't a slog to just try to survive for the next 20 years. And realizing that what I thought would sustain the kids and I for 1 year will have actually lasted 4 in March with some left to spare is mind boggling. Highly recommend Dana K White if the house is overwhelming, and then I love the lean/5S organizing videos Tim has put out. Mix that with the explanation of organizing styles from Clutterbug and it solves a lot of the overwhelm because you pare down with Dana, take into account your natural tendencies from clutterbug, and make it super functional with the lean methods Tim talks about..... all while realizing that there is more to life than stuff. Highly recommend just starting at the beginning on Tim's videos, and decluttering with Dana to start your journey. You've got this.

[@HumbleVoyager]

Hi, Tim. I don't think you give yourself enough credit. Your videos are enlightening, entertaining and aesthetically pleasing. I'm here because I believe your content is valuable. Thanks for sharing your interests, ideas and life. I pray God blesses you beyond your wildest dreams.

[@rhodatuckey7119]

Dear Mr. Tim: Wow! You are doing very well...could I hit you up for a coffee? Ha! Thank you for sharing...may God CONTINUE to bless you...

[@mtnjhutch]

What do they give you if your subscriber pays for You Tube subscription

[@akontarini]

small amount though...@@mtnjhutch

[@akontarini]

❤❤❤

[@beckysaterbak6203]

I think you are pleasing to a demographic that enjoys your knowledge, calm voice, and attitude on life and your life experiences. God bless!

[@aileentoomey9627]

You are very likeable, and your content is interesting. Back for More in 2024 Tim! 🎉😊

[@sallyburkett-caskinette8723]

Retired people don’t want headaches! Lol I really like it when you tell us about how KZbin works. There aren’t many channels that go into detail like you do. It would be to their benefit to do so and they are befitting in your doing so. Keep up the hard work you do in making your channel great! I don’t think it’s possible that everyone leaves your channel, you’ve got a great personality and that helps keep people. I watch a lot of homesteading video’s. I’m not a homesteader and never will be, but I enjoy learning about them. I keep track of which channels get more subscribers and I’ve noticed that the ones with great personalities grow faster. And the opinionated ones don’t do well at all! Keep growing!😊

[@TheNewRetiredMe]

Thanks!

[@jobielifehappens7102]

That’s interesting information!

[@jobielifehappens7102]

You come across as very personable-you seem like a friendly neighbor.

[@StarrConsulting]

Great job ❤. Btw how do you set up your phone to show on the side like that?

[@TimChilders]

@@StarrConsulting Well, a lot of people thought this was a live feed. But it wasn’t. It was recorded and set as a premiere. I screencast my phone to my Mac and recorded it with QuickTime while I was recording myself with my camera. Then I just edited them together when I edited the talk.

[@hbrealhousewife2270]

That was fascinating. I had no idea KZbin paid so much. It’s all very complicated. I’m one who stays for the duration of every video. Just love listening to your voice, stories, cooking etc. I’ll be with you through all of 2024 and wish you all the best. 😊

[@sofia_ines]

Wow!! That September month!!😂 I'm glad you could 'overcome' the surprise and not give yourself a heart attack! Keep those videos coming, I'll keep watching them!👍

[@Graceb630]

I enjoy your videos, you are funny, practical and realistic. Keep up the good work 👌

[@LynnStAubin-od5qe]

I’m retired 7 years and am enjoying your views on things. Travel, decluttering or just musings…I’m in.

[@kathyb6519]

I'm so happy to hear your channel is so successful! I'm amazed at how much can be earned from a you tube channel... I never would've guessed!

[@NewEnglanderatHeart]

I’m so happy for your success, Tim! That’s a lot of coffee and whiskey! I’m proud to be a Returning Viewer, even for the cooking videos LOL.

[@debrajones7349]

I really like so many things about YOU and that is what goes along way in bringing me back every time.

[@Sonya60andlearning]

Congratulations, I think most viewers are happy that the channel they choose to subscribe to is becoming successful and profitable for the creators. We push the thumbs up/down and comment to state our opinions or thought processes. You are doing well though you seem surprised. Again good job.

[@tiahill832]

I enjoy watching your videos. I hope your channel continues to grow and you have much success. Thanks for sharing, have a great up coming weekend! ❤😘👍

[@jannekh2]

Well I guess I’m the anomaly… watch them all, and watch them all the way through. I’m planning on personally watching 1st declutter video several times a week until it hits the milestone. I’m loving ALL the varied content (okay AI and corgis are not my fav) because it inspires me to keep my eyes open in my own life. Thanks for sharing your retired journey with us. 😎

[@TheNewRetiredMe]

Thank you!

[@eleanorbuck715]

Tim, I really enjoy your calm and relaxed manner in your videos. I do like U tube videos that are not long and drawn out. Shorter ones encourage me to listen all the way through. I tend to skip through longer ones. Happy New Year and continued success with your channel.

[@rrichardson53]

Agree!

[@michellepaull7523]

Good to hear how this all works, Tim & thanks for explaining this clearly. Your open approach is always appreciated & your honest opinions & insights valued. I will certainly be a regular for 2024! Happy New Year to you & your family! 🎉

[@christinewhite9162]

Fascinating, thanks for letting us see how KZbin works and your welcome.

[@cassfonnesbeck8057]

My goodness! What a great addition to your travel budget! Thanks! You're the only content creator I follow who publishes this info.

[@dianecyment1715]

Hello, Tim. This was so interesting and informative. I realize there are many people, youngsters included, that have made hundreds of thousands of dollars on KZbin. I believe these are content creators that help sell products. I hope you remain true to your mission on being your authentic self. I enjoy watching your videos and I do watch them from start to finish. Looking forward to being a part of your community in 2024. Congratulations on your success.

[@brendabrenda6403]

Hi Tim, Liked and watched all the way through 😊

[@miketrevino2771]

Happy New Year, Tim & Community!! WOW!!! Waaaay to go!!! It’s great to see your wonderful efforts & content is doing so well!! 💰 💰💰Definitely hanging with you & look forward to your continued success. I also anxiously await the release of your book! Godspeed, Tim!!

[@LittleQueenie64]

First of all, loved the video image! Congratulations on a successful start. You should be proud and give yourself credit as that is where credit is due. I look forward to viewing more in 2024.

[@katrinastarkweather2074]

Hi Tim! Thank you for this informative video about how much you made on KZbin in 6 months. You're a natural teacher. 😊 I do watch all the way to the end, by the way! Can't imagine leaving part way through!

[@marymarymillidweeb2661]

Wow! This was so interesting and informative! I have wondered how the youtubers were paid and how much. As I look at retirement I find myself thinking about a "side hustle". You give food for thought, thank you.

[@noreenn6976]

Just found your channel, YT recommended your egg bites video. I'll stay since retirement videos are my main interest.

[@tracybishop7792]

Really interesting! Thank you for sharing this!

Thank you Tim. You don’t have to show us what you made but you are so transparent and all your videos are a delight. December was a busy and I have videos to catch up on. Thank you for all you share with us.

Hello Mr. Tim! New Sub here. I saw your video and decided to check out your channel. I love how you break down and give info regarding YT! Looking forward to watching your other videos. Happy New Year and God bless! (P.s. I am the type of person that watches videos all the way thru.)

[@justmejo9008]

That’s awesome! Enjoying your content as it’s so relatable to our gen at this time. You encouraged me to start the process of scaling down and keeping busy with that if that is all I have to do. Better than sitting on the couch making everyone rich for just entertainment lol. I wish you continued success

[@admcc56]

Tim, I really enjoyed this video. Thank you. I found you "by accident", and I have subscribed. I am also doing a carnivore diet. I watched your video on the way you cook a chuck roast. I would love to see more of that type of video content. How long have you been doing the carnivore way of eating. What are your favorite meals, usual meals, results, and so on.

[@bettydodd2382]

Good information Thanks for sharing how it works Keep em coming!

[@ChristinesCraftTable]

Thank you so much. I really appreciate your willingness to disclose all this helpful info. While I don't aspire to make a lot of money on KZbin, this is really enlightening. I like your attitude and straightforward manner. Truly refreshing. And congratulations on the success so far. By the way loved the egg bite video. Short, helpful, and relevant! Who doesn't want to save money and eat good food. Fast food prices have really become outrageous, and so not worth it, IMO. 😊

[@user-mb4ee1pg2h]

Tim, you are a natural at filming and sharing these videos with us. Thank you for your content. I look forward to the next video. Please don’t short change yourself. You deserve recompense for your work. All those years of living has left you with an unusual wisdom. Plus you are charming! God bless you.

Love the breakdown and certainly opened my eyes. It’s interesting to hear your life stories and travels. I can also enjoy seeing your photography on the back wall. So much so…I’m the gal that purchased it too. It’s lovely on my wall and it generates much conversation. Must look into more of your photos. Thanks much for the entertainment. Blessings to you. Xoxo
