[@CATCHAHAWG]

I tried looking for your guests info in the video description but it takes me to some other kind of channel

[@Filosofuerza]

That producing content as you speak with the people you want to help is the way. Same as recording what you do and publishing. Speak with your audience, not speak to the audience.

[@ProfKlaus]

Find your own Niche. No matter what you think. Develop your own idea and work at it and stick with it. Also it helps to have some money that allows you to do this. Totally worth it. Seriously.

[@savvybudgetgirl]

That it's okay not to edit!

[@chicanoinparadise]

Biggest takeaway is to make an “impact” and the money will follow. That resonated with me because that is all I ever wanted. As I’ve mentioned before I am comfortable financially but I feel I am called for a greater purpose by a higher power. IMPACT the name of the game.

[@UrbanCraftTv]

Videos made to serve others require nothing fancy. The information you share is king.

[@OneRentalataTime]

Agreed

[@exploringonlinebiztogether]

As someone who struggles with perfectionism, it is very freeing hearing that he did the videos with no editing. That piece right there helps me "just hit record"....now if I could be confident with no hair and makeup...lol

[@OneRentalataTime]

You got this !!

[@gina86]

Lol😂

[@Morningritualgirl]

This episode was full of best practices like commit to 3 hours a day, 5 days a week, read every day for an hour in the morning, use zoom and don't edit it. 12-15 minutes on a topic. "be the hub" and bring on amazing people. YES.

[@OneRentalataTime]

Yes!!

[@paulegavin]

Please continue with the no edit trend 🙏🏾 it’s exactly what I need

[@OneRentalataTime]

Awesome

[@kelly.nicole]

God I hate editing so much. Each 10 minute video I edit takes about 60 hours. That’s ridiculous for 100 views a video 🙃

[@TamarahTravels]

I accepted the fact when I began on yt that editing was not for me. I've never edited and have one video that has 16k views. Thanks for sharing!

[@Craftalyticalrants]

Same here.i tried editing once, and I hated the process and the result.. it was also my least popular video. Some content is better raw and real.

[@OneRentalataTime]

Congrats!!!

[@Punjabify639]

are you looking for editor?

[@BreakfastAllDay]

This is so encouraging. At our movie review channel, we've gone back and forth over the years with not editing at all vs. editing in pieces of trailer and stills to illustrate what we're talking about. There's joy in the creativity, but the efficiency of making it simpler is great too. Thanks, Sean and Michael!

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

You're welcome. Glad you got value!

[@antoniobrasse7157]

It sounds like it all comes down to providing value added content in a compelling way and be consistent with creating content.

[@OneRentalataTime]

Well said

[@Jaka-u4w]

Until algo knocks you out. Why do you think he's now doing interviews. Look at his last videos they get barely 1k views. Not saying he wasn't doing good. But there comes a time that youtube will destriy you. When. You never know and you rely most of the time on youtube. When people think its easy. Its not. Its high risk business.

[@weightlosssupport36]

I promise Sean is the best interviewer going. He asked the questions and get to the nuts and bolts that we are asking on the "how" to do things!

[@OneRentalataTime]

He is amazing

[@IMFitShameka]

Yes! And he doesn’t over talk guest like other interviewers. Pure professional at his craft!

[@daydreamalston]

This is one of my favorite episodes, so much value. Thank You

[@OneRentalataTime]

So awesome

[@SparkFinancialGroup]

The idea of outsourcing the editing process and focusing on content creation is a game-changer. It reminds us that success comes from finding your strengths and leveraging them effectively. Thank you for sharing!

[@DigitCompare]

I mean seriously, this man is incredible.

[@weightlosssupport36]

Great conversation. I agree 100% that I love Zoom to record. I find that when I use Streamyard, I tend to over edit and it takes a lot longer. When I use Zoom, the editing is much easier and quicker.

[@OneRentalataTime]

Boom!!

[@HenryReadsBooks]

Exactly! I personally don't do any edits because I want to share my originality and my genuine mistakes that happen during my recording.

[@EVworldnews]

Wow, I feel he justifies my own news channel. I do a 5 day per week news podcast and am arranging side interviews for additional content with industry leaders in my field. With every video, I feel like my speaking skills improve a little.

[@OneRentalataTime]

Love it!! Keep going

[@AndyColeman]

I actually started releasing no edit videos now because of hearing stories like this!

[@OneRentalataTime]

Congrats

Your thumbnails look good!

[@theeducationmovement]

I will start doing the same.

[@frugalcreativeliving]

If I could just cement the notion of simplicity of editing into my being, I would be able to publish so much more content! Thank you so much for constantly presenting examples of how keeping it simple with great content can still make an impact!

Can you fix the description? KZbin tag to his channel doesn’t work

[@longwoodcurrencytrading]

Great interview. Man, I lived that exact life as a shadow real estate investor for 40 years while working through a 33 year career as a senior software engineer. It wasn't the engineering job that enabled me to retire but my real estate. Based on my desire to not have to concern myself with tenant issues anymore, I started cashing out of my small real estate portfolio when I retired from my engineering career, and switched gears to an it's only me and my skills life of trading currencies. From that, I started a small following KZbin channel which I just published my 400th video on (March of 2024), and enjoying life. For sure I'll be buying Michael's book as I still follow the real estate market as once that's in your blood, you have such a passion for it that it's a life interest and not a job, or even a hobby. Another great Think Media interview!

[@FatalJay]

[@OneRentalataTime]

[@Kingdomconsultinggroup]

[@OneRentalataTime]

Me too

[@The_Fact_Scoop]

If you just started a channel: Don't be discouraged by the initial challenges or slow growth. Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither is a successful KZbin channel. Stay consistent, keep honing your craft, and believe in your idea - because with dedication and perseverance, you have the power to achieve greatness. Keep going, Champ!

[@OneRentalataTime]

Boom!!

[@KendraRN]

Yes indeed!

[@Friedsteel]

Very impressive presentation with the very impressive back story to anchor it home. Congratulations on your success. As a 74 year old retired chiropractor, I am impressed by your candor and deserved confidence. God bless, young man. I am thinking about signing up for your course!

Understanding personal finances and investing will most likely lead to greater financial independence. By being knowledgeable about money and investing, individuals can make informed decisions about how to save, spend, and invest their money.

[@AvisPope]

It's awesome that he wanted to impact the world by bringing value to his subscribers. As a result, he made a ton of money 💯🎯🤑💚

[@hallorwalahfrid6074]

That's honestly amazing achievement, congratulations and thanks for the insight, this is amazing content. I still remember my first proper KZbin 'paycheck', a lot of emotions and I was so proud of myself. If it wasn't for my consistency and hard work (and a little bit of Famester), I wouldn't have made anything.

[@OneRentalataTime]

Congrats

[@createyourbestlife]

This is so encouraging to me because I started my channel 2 years ago and I know nothing about tech so I have uploaded many videos raw and hoping the content will carry them until I learn more about the editing and technical aspect. Thank you so much for your encouragement and great example!

[@drmatthewhorkey]

This was sooooo much information... Totally unexpected. Great stuff!

[@OneRentalataTime]

Awesome

[@dkode80]

This is great info for someone like myself that was recently monetized. I found this video via that type of search on KZbin. I had a single video that the algorithm grabbed and sky rocketed to 140k views. This propelled my to 1400 subs from 40. Thanks for the informative video. You got a new sub from me

[@OneRentalataTime]

Congrats

[@godisgood5038]

CONGRATULATIONS! I'm a new youtuber...three weeks in. Does monetization come only after 4000 views on ONE video or all videos total. Also do you need 4000 views and 1000 subscribers or only one or the other. Thanks! God bless you and your channel!

​@@godisgood5038you need 4000 watch time hours in 1 year and overall 1,000 subs.

Michael and Sean, thanks for more great content. Sitting here at my desk and prepping for another video. Such great creator gold in this video. Be thoughtful about your spending. Invest wisely for continuing cashflow. Seek outside help when it saves you time and allows you to focus on your core skills. Create your own financial vehicle. Continue to put out the content without judging the early efforts. Super interview. Nick

You mentioned making money from “Adsense” can someone explain what that is and do you have to have videos uploaded for this? Is it a paid marketing technique?

I've looked at Michael's Zoom interviews on his channel and they seem to be recordings of good quality. When I tried to Zoom-record an interview with a guest recently, the visuals were blurry (both me and the interviewee) that I wouldn't be comfortable to publish that recording. Any tips on getting a good quality Zoom recording?

[@englishwithalina101]

I just discovered you and would love to thank you for extremely valuable content!

[@EverythingFarley]

It was already said at the beginning that he works in real estate, he's written books, he already has a name for himself. It would be great if we could find someone who really came from nothing at all.

[@ThinkMediaPodcast]

He did come from nothing. He has to build all of that brick by brick. 🧱

[@EverythingFarley]

Please take the time to watch your video again. The man already had a platform, books, and everything he needed to succeed. Interview someone who started from nothing, had to learn brick by brick how to use social media, didn't have anyone to help them out, and had to fail a million times to succeed. In my opinion, that is what brick-by-brick success is all about.

[@EverythingFarley]

why don’t you interview Hassan? He’s a big KZbinr. look him up. he said he’s come from nothing, he had no help.

[@fjeebs2109]

Great video. Just started real estate and was wondering where or how to even begin. I love to talk about it but I’m still learning the industry and the ins and outs. This helps me at least understand how simple the process can be.

[@TroyShields]

I respect your choice to use primes but it’s a personal preference thing. I shot weddings with primes and understood my shots and settings fine. The game changer for me was the 35-150 f2-f2.8 Tamron. You carry two cameras and four lenses, I carry one camera (I have a backup) and two lenses. The 35-150 and a 24 f1.4. I’m not saying my way is better or knocking yours. But you can get great results either way.

Comment & Question: enjoyed this talk. And, it caused me to move forward with my first video. Reason being; you mentioned live-streaming into YT with Zoom. And, I’m way better at going live versus pre-recording and uploading. So, I did it! But, the problem is that on my KZbin profile it saves under a tab called “livestream” versus in my videos. And, that could be a problem because usually people only look at people’s videos not livestreams, well at least me. Any guidance on this?

I’m defo not convinced this dude only spends 3hrs a day of his hustle. Why? well, he didn’t factor in: calls, emails, accounting, PR, marketing, book writing/ selling, communicating with designer, and on it goes. And, though he said he doesn’t count research as part of his work time, well, clearly it is.

He's a workaholic... he seems to struggle to not be actively busy and consistently working and progressing which is a huge asset to financial freedom...but not necessarily everyone's happy life when you reach retirement. It's a good lesson that if you're getting a huge amount of pleasure out of your job... you'll never truly work a day in your life and get paid a handsome salary for it.
