This is the weather forecast for the week beginning Wednesday, June 24th, and I am chief meteorologist John Ensworth. Taking you into the weekend, we have a first quarter moon at Sunday night, and with the summer solstice occurring just on Saturday, our very close to having 12 hours of daylight, 12 hours of darkness. So the moon is actually rising at noon and setting at midnight. Up in the sky for 12 hours, kind of a neat coincidence there. Alright, let's look back into the past before we move forward with our weather forecast and take a look at the drought conditions nationwide. You can see the eastern U.S. is doing great. It's moist out there, it's doing great in Alaska, and why it's not bad either. But the western U.S. is really starting to dry out. West Coast is moderately rough, but is really bad around the four corners of the area and over into Kansas and the Panhandles of Oklahoma and Texas. This is too early in the summer for us to really want to see this level of drought. So let's take a look at Colorado itself, and there's our southern counties already into pretty severe drought and up onto the eastern plains. Storm after storm, coming out of the winter and through the spring, have favored the northern counties of Colorado. So we're doing great up here. Boulder, Larimer, Weld are all drought-free. It was about a year ago that we had the entire state drought-free. So all of this has happened in just the last 12 to 16 months or so. Here's the last two weeks of rainfall. This is very indicative of what we've had, and the rain really has been Colorado Springs northward. Right along the front range, you can see two, three inches of rain in places. We had some pretty good rainfall amounts down in the southern part of the state, and a little bit out on the eastern plains, but not enough to relieve that. Over the last seven days, we see again rain in the south and rain right up here around Lawnmont and along the front range. The front set up this last time right around Colorado Springs and up onto the plains, and the overrunning upslope flow helped keep storm after storm going right over the same track. We call that training, and gave us a pretty good shot of water. All right, let's start with Wednesday and move forward out into the week here. So we have a big high pressure system, the beginning of our forecast period sitting down here in the southwest, record heat setting up in California and Arizona. We have the wildfires in Arizona, and we have this ridge extending up the Rockies up into Canada. This is giving us northwest flow, though. This arrow here shows the direction of the air aloft coming right down over Colorado to the southeast. Cool air is close nearby. We got the heat just to the south. So any little ripple, and many of these ripples are hard to detect in our network, can kick off extra thunderstorm activity in the afternoon when the heating reaches a peak. Our next weather maker is way out here in the Pacific Northwest. That trough doesn't look like much on this map. It's going to become a big change in the weather come Friday. So Wednesday morning, we have high pressure system at this surface, but we see rain showers around on this map, and that's again due to the northwest flow. Any little ripple can kick off some storms and shower activity, and by Wednesday evening, the first round of thunderstorms have moved off to the southeast, and we just have showers continuing in the mountains. Very typical summer pattern. Taking a look at the big picture for the next 10 days, the top graph is temperatures tracking each day, so you can see the highs and lows. And the bottom is multiple model runs, trying to see whether it's raining or not, or in the winter whether we have snow or not. And they change things between each run, so we call this an ensemble. It gives us a, how confident we are, measure of the rainfall coming up. You can see for Wednesday afternoon, we have a pretty solid line going down, so we probably will get some showers and storms around here. But the more significant system is here on Friday. You can see multiple hours of sometimes very heavy rain coming down. Temperatures up on the top here, we have a normal high now of 86 and a normal low of 50. You can see that the normal lines, red and blue, are still climbing a little bit. I just said that we had the beginning of summer, the longest day of the year on Saturday, so why is that happening? Well the earth is always cooling, it's radiating off energy and infrared day and night, but we're getting a surplus of sunlight still in the northern hemisphere for about a month, month and a half after the first day of summer. So the normal high temperatures will continue to climb for a little while. And our temperatures over the next 10 days definitely hover at the upper part of this normal range here, except for Friday when our next storm comes in. And that next storm is this trough. It was sitting up in the Pacific Northwest in our last graphic. It now has all cut off low in Montana with the trough approaching the state from the west. Cool air coming in. We get the yellowing colors here as the tendency of the atmosphere to turn in the way that a low pressure system or a storm turns. So the more yellowy color or the redder color here, the more left there is in the atmosphere, the more instability, better chance for rain and thunderstorms. We also need moisture for rain and thunderstorms and we have that too. As the storm is approaching Thursday night and Friday, it's pulling in moisture from the Gulf of Mexico and some moisture is being dragged along with the trough from the Pacific. So we have the fuel that we need for some rain. At this time we don't see the ingredients coming together for severe weather though. So how much rain might we get out of all this? It's not bad, about a half inch to three quarters of an inch right around Longmont. In the nearby foothills we can see one to even two inches down on the Palmer Divide. By Sunday noon that's gone and the heat is back. And what we see is another trough is a completely new trough coming into the west coast and in between this and our trough that's departing, we have a little shortwave ridge. Yes, you can get small ridges as well. That will rock the temperatures up into the 90s. This is a progressive pattern. The lows and highs are traveling rather quickly across the nation, but this low won't advance very far. It is going to kind of stall there, leaving us in the heat. Moving to Monday noon you can see that the low is closer, but we have switched from a northwest flow now to a very strong southwest flow. So even though there is a trough and there's cool air kind of close to the state, we're getting a very strong warm flow from the desert southwest where there already is a lot of heat building. So we're not going to get as much cooling and relief from this trough as we have the one for Friday. And if you add another five days to what the GFS is predicting for rainfall, it's not a lot more. We maybe pick up another tenth of an inch over the following five days. Last week we had a problem with the haze and the smoke around. That was due to wildfires in northern and central and southern Arizona and also fire in southwestern Colorado. With the northwest flow blowing over the entire region, we're just completely clean. There is no smoke at all in Colorado. But as that trough approaches and we switch back around to a southwest flow, you can see this smoke is starting to head into around Durango and the southwest counties. It'll be returning probably over the weekend and in the beginning of next week. Sorry about that. For fun, we can take a look way out into the future for the Fourth of July Independence Day celebrations. And this is a GFS again, model of actual convection, what you would see on the radar. This is for about sunset, so seven o'clock, eight o'clock at night. A little bit later. You can see some showers popping up around eastern Colorado. It's not a lot of activity. There's not a lot of organization to it. If you go later in the evening, you can see it kind of consolidates into a more solid line of thunderstorms. You can see Kansas with a little bit of shower activity left in the mountains. It doesn't look really wet. It just looks like you might get hit by a wandering storm, a little bit of lightning nearby. For temperatures, we definitely have a little ridge projected to be over the state at that time. These are temperature departure from normal, so reds are warmer than normal, blues are cooler than normal. And there's a good ribbon of some hot air from Arizona up across Colorado.  But these funny little blue blobs here, it's the cold air coming out of the thunderstorms. So the model is actually seeing the rain cooling the air, the cool air hitting the ground and spreading out. Kind of like milk splashing out on a tabletop. So for the next seven days, I'll step out of the way here. We have temperatures in the 80s and 90s, Wednesday and Thursday, small chance of afternoon showers. We have our cool down on Friday, kind of extending into Saturday with a much better chance of rain and thunderstorms. Then we shoot back into the 90s for the end of the weekend and the beginning of next week before we kind of cool down as that trough tries to make some advancement forward.

Hi, this is Dr. Don. I have a problem from Chapter 8, Section 2, which is on two sample tests. And if we read this problem, we're told that an engineer wants to know if producing metal bars using a new experimental treatment rather than a conventional treatment makes a difference in the strength of the bars. They give us an alpha, and then we've got several questions we have to answer. They tell us the population variances are equal and the samples are random. And they hit us with, if convenient, use technology to solve the problem. And that's what we're going to do. But first, let's answer as many of these questions as we can. The first question is, identify the claim, state the null, and the alternative. Well, this is kind of a fuzzy question. It doesn't say specifically, I don't see the word claim in there anywhere. So that's kind of fuzzy. But the question is, the engineer wants to know if producing metal bars makes a difference. Okay, remember that our null hypothesis for all of these tests is no difference. That's the null. And in this case, if he's wondering, if he wants to know, he's wanting the test, if it makes a difference, then somebody, perhaps himself, thinks it does make a difference. So that would be the claim that the treatment does make a difference. You wouldn't be developing an experimental treatment if you didn't think it was going to help, would you? So the claim is that there is a difference. The null then has to be no difference. So we go down here, the claim is the new treatment makes a difference. The null then has to be that mu one, the mean tensile strength of the old, is equal to the mean tensile strength of the new, and the alternative is, of course, not equal. And reiterating there, the alternative is the claim. Remember because we have a not equal sign in the claim, that means that the critical value, excuse me, that it's a two-tail test, and that we have two critical values. Now this student got the wrong answer there, and when I dug into what she was doing, she didn't recognize that we didn't have sigmas up here. I don't see any sigmas. The population standard deviations given. She mentions the population variances are equal, but it doesn't tell us what the population variances are, or what the population standard deviations might be. If we know the variances, of course we can take the square root and get the population sigmas, but here we don't know anything other than to assume that they're equal. If we don't know the sigmas, then we must use the t-test. And I will show you in a minute, once we get StatCrunch open, how to find the correct values of critical value of t using the right degrees of freedom for a t-test for a two-sample, which depends upon whether or not we have equal variance assumption or not equal variance assumption. Let's open this in StatCrunch. So we have our data there in StatCrunch. Okay, let's get our critical values first. We're going to go to Stat, Calculators, t, open up the t-calculator. Now we need the degree of freedom, and because our variance are equal, we use the formula that the degrees of freedom is equal to n1 plus n2 minus 2. And here we have seven values of experimental, ten, that's n1, ten values for conventional, so that would be 17 minus 2 or 15 for the degrees of freedom. This is a two-tail test, therefore we put half of alpha, and alpha if I remember correctly is 0.01, so we put 0.005 and click Compute, and we get a critical value on our low side of minus 2.467, and of course by symmetry we know that there's also a positive value 2.947 on the top side of this. So our two values are minus 2.947 and plus 2.947. Okay, let's run the hypothesis test. We go to Stat, t-stat, two-sample with data, open up our dialog box, the two-sample t-test. Our values for sample one are in the experimental column. Our values for sample two are the conventional column. This is a critical step here. If we've got equal variances, then we must pool the variances, and so this box needs to be checked. If you were given in your problem to assume the variances were not equal, we do not want pool variances, so we would uncheck that. But here we have equal variance, so we check that. Our hypothesis test, mu one minus mu two, the null this time is zero, just no difference, and that means that the operator and the claim has to be not equal. And that's really all we need. We just click compute, and we get the results here. We get our sample difference of mu one minus mu two, which in some questions they will ask you for the test statistic, which is just mu one minus mu two. Over here we've got our standardized test statistic, t-stat of 1.15 and around that be 1.151. We also have a p-value of 0.2678, which should tell you because the p-value is much larger than our alpha of 0.01 that we would fail to reject the null. But also in this case we're going to look back at the, compare the t-stat to the rejection regions and you should have the same answer. If you remember correctly the, I'm going to bring that up here. You've got our critical value on the low side of minus 2.947 and the t-standardized test statistic does not fall in there. And of course on the upper side by symmetry plus 2.947 and 1.15 is back in here somewhere. So we're definitely not in the rejection region. So that would be your decision. No to reject.

The biosynthesis method is thought to be a clean, nantastic, and environmentally friendly way to produce silver nanoparticles. It has been shown to be effective in controlling the size of these particles, with smaller particles being formed when certain conditions are met. These conditions include the use of a specific fungus, fusarium oxysporum, at a particular temperature and pH level, along with a specific amount of silver nitrate and fungal age. This process also produces antimicrobial activity against both the scuricicoli and staphylococcus aureus, with the highest zone of inhibition being 2 mm and 1.6 mm, respectively, at 80 l of silver nanoparticles. Additionally, Cytotoxicity testing shows that the silver nanoparticles have an IC50 value of 121.23 gcm3. This article was authored by Sheriff Musa Hussaini, Tohari Silla, and Hende Antia.


Agricultural markets and trade have evolved with our societies, making a difference in people's lives and livelihoods. This year's State of Agricultural Commodity Markets report, SoCo 2020, looks at how local and global agricultural markets can play a role in contributing to growth and sustainable development, while leaving no one behind. Since 1995, trade in food and agriculture has more than doubled. And today, about one-third of global agricultural and food exports are traded within global value chains. The rapid spread of COVID-19 posed challenges to food markets everywhere. But global value chains showed their resilience, highlighting the importance of international collaboration and an integrated approach to food systems. Trade moves food from surplus to deficit regions. This helps to promote global food security. It can also help to promote growth and reduce poverty. With appropriate actions and policies, trade can also drive sustainable economic, social, and environmental development. Developing countries are increasingly participating in global markets. Their exports make up over a third of global agri-food trade. But at the same time, smallholder farmers in many developing countries cannot access modern markets. Because they lack the information, skills, and resources needed to participate, and rural women remain most at risk of being left behind. Access to markets and global value chains can help farmers to integrate into the economy, providing opportunities for income growth and better livelihoods. SoCo 2020 shows that there are many ways for countries to foster market participation and sustainable development. Digital technologies are revolutionizing how we farm and trade, and can be used to help smallholders overcome many barriers preventing their participation in markets. Inclusive business models such as contract farming allow farmers better access to markets and value chains. A more stable income encourages the adoption of better practices. Value chains combined with sustainability certification schemes can help to develop markets for food produced sustainably. Public policies and private sector actions can promote the development of global value chains and contribute to growth in agriculture and the food industry. While agricultural markets and trade are an integral part of the global food system, we all have a role to play to ensure they promote sustainable development, securing a better future for everyone.


What's going on everybody? How you doing? Let me know if you can hear me type in that chat box there. I've got my, I've got like a iPad right below the computer here that I'm gonna be looking at all your comments there. We're gonna have a great session today. Yes, I've got some of these to give away. So we got some gift cards here. I wanna switch over to my other screen so I can see you guys better. Wait, I can't see you at all. It's so that I can see the screen. Yeah, yeah, I can see all you guys. I got a camera at your house. Watch out, okay? You really should be scared of that. All right, so let me change the setting right here. We got some really cool stuff to go over today. I think you're really gonna like it. If you wanna know how to make money and make content online, I've cracked a couple little codes in 2020, but it's not 2020 anymore, is it? It's 2021, and we gotta do what works for 2021. Let me turn down this volume here. We got that off. I got my volume off here. And let's see here. Lifelong learning education, happy new year. Happy new year to you, man. I really appreciate you showing up today. We can hear you. I appreciate you letting me know that. Put your questions in this comment section here too. Guys, this is a YouTube channel, okay?  For the past year, I have watched Very Little TV, Very Little TV. I have a friend who is an executive at one of the big networks, and he runs one of the big late night shows, and we talk back and forth, and they're losing their audience, man. They're losing it. People are not going to these talk shows anymore. Matter of fact, I was listening to Joe Rogan yesterday, and he had a comedian on there, and he said that he was offered to go on, I think it was Jimmy Kimmel or Jimmy Fallon, I can't remember what it was, and he said he could go on that show and get 1,100 bucks, or he could go on Joe Rogan's podcast and get paid nothing, and he chose Joe Rogan's podcast. Why? Because that's where the audience was. The audience was on Joe Rogan's podcast. It wasn't on one of these TV shows. So TV is kind of going by the wayside. I just got off a talk with a friend of mine in England. He's an actor. He's been in a lot of shows you've probably seen. I won't say his name, but he told me the same thing. It's hard to even get to work. It's hard to get money for projects anymore. There's money out there, but they're not being spent in the traditional way. So if you've got access to YouTube, which you do because you're here, you can make money on YouTube. I know I'm doing it right now. As I talk to you guys, I'm literally making money. Now the key is how the heck do you do it? And that's what I wanna talk about in this session today is to show you guys how you make money on YouTube. Am I a huge YouTuber? No. Will I be? Yes. I will be just because I'm doing some of the best practices. Not because I'm any different or any better or any of those things. When you do a YouTube channel, there's certain things you need to do to get people to watch you. Now I wanna talk about those things in this session today and everybody on here, I'm telling you, everybody on here right now, you could have a sustainable income within 12 months on YouTube, okay? And you could be making money. Now within 24 months, you could be making crazy money. Within 36 months, you could be richer than you can imagine by doing the practices that I'm gonna talk about today. Now, do I do every single thing that you could do on YouTube? No, I don't do every single thing you can do, but I will tell you about almost every single thing you can do so that you can apply it, okay? I wanna see you guys make money. Put your comments in here. Can I know who? No, I can't release who that is. It's a pretty big name. But put all your comments in here. Do you have a YouTube channel now? I'm kinda curious, out of the people that are on this call right now, do you have a YouTube channel? Now, if you're listening to this live, this is now Saturday at 10.04 AM, I think it's Pacific Daylight Time. I think it's Pacific Day. I get confused between the Daylight Time and the Standard Time, but I think it's Daylight Time. And if you're watching live right now, you can put a comment in there and I wanna know if you have a YouTube channel. Do you have one? What are you doing with it? You make it any money on it. Tell me what you're doing, okay? Also, I'm gonna give away a couple gift cards. You wanna use the link that's on the screen there, which is bit.ly forward slash giftcardjr. You wanna have that page pulled up so you can immediately go in there and see what's going on, get that going. And get your gift cards or whatever, okay? Now, if you're not watching this live, let's say that this is recorded and you're watching it a week or two later, you can put anything that you wanna know in the comment section. And in that comment section, I will reply to you, okay? So let's talk about, first off, making content and what the purpose of content is. Making content is not you talking about what you wanna talk about. That's not the purpose, okay? Let's see, Richard Brown, yes, but it needs some life and a good Richard.  Let's see here, Jerry Clemens. Yes, I have a YouTube channel but I haven't posted anything in a while. Okay, I'm gonna talk to you about that too, Jerry. And we're gonna get, guys, we're gonna get going this year. I may do a 100-day challenge where I go live for 100 days straight just to help you build your business. I'm not selling you anything just to help you build your business. If you're interested in that 100-day challenge where I go live every single day at the same time, let me know, put that in the comments too. Just Roblox, Netflix or Google, you're just worried about gift cards. Come on, man, you gotta learn some of this stuff. Jerry Brown says it just sits there.  Lifelong learning education, yes, but I don't have enough subscribers to monetize my channel yet. Don't worry about that, don't worry about that. I can show you how you can get it monetized. It's gonna take you about six months. Well, actually less if you have some hit videos, okay? But if you don't have any hit videos and you just do what I tell you, it'll take you about six months. Let me get a sip here of this is my propaganda cup. See if you like that. You like that propaganda cup right there? There you go. All right, so let's talk about your YouTube channel here. That's great, that would be great, thanks. Yeah, Richard, this is not hard. Now, I take it back. This is simple but it's not easy, okay? It's simple but it's not easy.  How do you decide what type of content to make? Here's the truth. It's already been decided for you. It's already been decided for you. As a matter of fact, the content you need to make is already, the titles and everything is already sitting there. It's just waiting for you, okay? So what you have to do is you gotta make content. Let me see here. If you reach 1,000, you get more than 4,000. Yes, okay, I'll go over all that in a second. But what you do is you make content, get this, this is the big secret, that people wanna watch. You make content that people want to watch. Now, how do you know what they want to watch?  An idea. So your basic idea may be like the title of this today is, this is Melvin Lunar, hey buddy, says I love the cup, thank you so much. Yes, this is a little reminder here, right? Little reminder. I got another one that says every dang day, but it doesn't say dang, okay? Can I, I can't say any of those words on YouTube, so I won't, I won't do that. Because it'll demonetize me. I don't want that to happen. But whatever you do, you come up with a title like how to make content that gets views, okay? That's the title of today's video. And you put it into a piece of software called TubeBuddy. At the end of this video, I'm gonna have a link in the content, in the description section, and you can get TubeBuddy for free, for free, okay? And then what you do is, once you put your title in TubeBuddy, it's gonna say if it's a good title or not a good title based on your channel. Because what TubeBuddy does is it looks at your channel and it says, hey, this is a good title for your channel or it's not a good title. It will tell you how many videos are already made on this subject. It will tell you all kinds of analytics. The bottom line is free. You need to get it. It will also help you with your meta tags, the tags in the videos, descriptions, all that stuff. It'll help you out, okay? And if you wanna get the paid version, use my link. And there's an upgraded version and you're gonna save 30% if you use my link. I am an affiliate for TubeBuddy, full disclosure. Let's see here, love that cup too, just relax, yes. It's a reminder, right? It's a reminder.  You can't do it, you can't sit coffee for two hours. And I don't even drink coffee, I drink tea. But bottom line is, yeah, this reminds me right here. This is a reminder for me. So once we've figured out the title of the video that we wanna do, here's something I'm gonna tell you that you're not gonna wanna hear. If you wanna grow your YouTube channel, you have to post consistently and often. You have to post consistently and often. What does that mean? That means you can't post a video and then wait two weeks and post another video. It won't work. Think of it this way, when you did watch television and you had your television series or your shows you wanted to watch, it was like every Monday night at 7 p.m. you'd go watch your show you liked. What if on Monday night at 7 p.m. you went there and you'd been watching the show for eight weeks and then you go there on a Monday and there's no show. And you come back the next week on a Monday and there's no show. Are you gonna come back the third Monday? Probably not. Because there was no show on Monday at 7 p.m. So here's the truth. If you wanna build content, it has to be consistent and it has to be often, okay? So if I post, and I post early in the morning, I think it's six or seven a.m., something like that. I post a video every single day, five days a week, Monday through Friday. And it's always at the same time and there's always one there. And I do it five days a week and you may say, well, JR, that's a lot of work. Yes, it is a lot of work. I'm not gonna tell you it's not a lot of work because I do other things too. I create courses, I have a survival food company, I got all this stuff going on. But you know what, you can do all these things too because I don't have any more time than you do. I don't have any more time than anybody on this call. But I just put in the work, okay?  I don't do that. I record, like Thursday, I recorded 12 videos. I spent the entire day in this office sitting at this desk talking about stuff that will help you guys and I did 12 of them. And then I edit those 12 videos and then I schedule them to go up over the next couple of weeks. That's how it's called batch editing or batch filming, I guess it is.  Now, what makes this easy is my office is always set up. It always has the lighting in here. It's got the camera in here. It's got my desk set up and all that. If you don't have that, it's okay. You still do it, okay? So the key is you got to post often, right? And on a schedule. So pick your schedule. Now, once you build your YouTube channel, YouTube, you can go into the analytics and it will tell you when most of your subscribers are online in the best time to post. I kinda look at that and I kinda don't because here's the truth. My channel is now growing and since it's now growing, 90% of the people that watch my videos are not subscribed, 90%. Now, why is that? It's because YouTube is now showing my videos in search results. It's making it suggested videos for people so that I can build my audience and believe me, I appreciate that YouTube. You guys are awesome. Let me move this microphone out of the way. I'm gonna bump my head on this thing in a second. How's that? There we go. Got a little bit more real estate now, okay? So here's the deal, guys. That's the first thing you need to do is you need to post a video that people are interested in. You gotta do it often and you gotta do it frequently, okay? Now, let's see. Just Roblox Acoustic says it's growing at 100 subs a week. That's incredible. That's really incredible. Now, let's talk about how you're gonna make money off this. Now, everybody says, hey, I need to get enough subscribers so I can monetize so I can make money. I need to get enough subscribers so I can monetize so I can make money. No, you don't. No, you don't. You can make money from day one. And the way you make money from day one is what you do with your channel, okay? So in the description of this particular video below, there's gonna be links, okay? There's gonna be a link for a free course. You can get it to $97 course. You can opt in, then cost you a dime. However, when you opt in for that course, I build my list. I build my list of names so that when I send out an email for something I'm selling, I have more people to send it to. So right there, I can make money. The next thing I do is affiliate links, okay?  I have a lot of Amazon affiliate links below for stuff I use for lighting, for, I don't know, cameras, laptops, all that stuff. So I have those links right there so I can make money on that. Also, you can put an actual course or a product link in your description so that they can click on it and go buy that thing that whatever the widget is or whatever the course is, whatever the training is that you wanna offer. Now, some of you say, well, I don't have anything to sell, okay? Well, you could do one or two things. You could do affiliate offers. You can find offers that match with your brand, okay? So maybe if you were like, I sell how to make money online, okay? That's what my shtick is. It has a sell, how to make money online. So I may go out and try to find a course on how to do Facebook ads because that would be something that people who are trying to make money online may need to do. Now, fortunately, I do have a course on Facebook ads and it's still Facebook ads university and you'll find it in the description below after the end of this video. So I've already got some of those things, okay? But those affiliate links right there can make me money. And the next thing I'm gonna tell you to do is if you don't have subscribers, you need to get some. You know, what's the number one way to get subscribers? Number one way to get subscribers, I want you to post in that chat section right there. And I wanna see if you know the number one way to get subscribers. Post it in there right now, we're gonna sip your tea. There's a lot of ways to get subscribers but this is one of the best ways that I've seen to get subscribers. And I'm gonna give you several different ways but I want you to just post in there the best way to get subscribers, okay? Now, why do you need subscribers? First off, when you need them because it's gonna help you build your channel. The more people that start to subscribe, the more people that start to like, and oh guys, don't forget, if you haven't done so so far, you need to subscribe. You gotta subscribe to the channel, there's a button down there. And if it's red, you gotta click it, it'll turn gray and then a bell's gonna pop up next to it and you gotta ring the bell, turn on all bell notifications. If you do that, it will help the distribution of this video, I will really appreciate it. And hit that thumbs up too if you do that, okay? Now, I've already given you the secret to getting more subscribers, all right? Did you hear it? Did you hear the secret to getting more subscribers? Let's see, lifelong learning education, number one way, ask people to subscribe.  You got it, you got it. This is the number one way to get subscribers is ask people to subscribe. Now, I don't just mean on this channel, though I do mean it on this channel and you should say it in every single video. People forget to do this, guys. It's not that they don't want to, it's not that they don't wanna hear your content. Somebody says, share your links on social media. Yes, yes, and ask them to subscribe. Ask them to subscribe, okay?  Free offers, that can help, that can help, but you know, and I'm gonna give away some free stuff in a second, right here, free stuff, got it, right here. But the point is, we gotta ask them to subscribe and we don't have to just ask them to subscribe on YouTube. You can ask them on any platform, okay? Any platform. Let's see here, subscribe to your channel. Richard Brown did. Thank you so much, Richard Brown. Lifelong learning education, secret post often. That's another thing, but that doesn't get you subscribers. That gets you views, okay? The way to get subscribers, if you've got to, oh man, it's censoring a lot of your comments, guys, and I'm trying to subscribe, like, and notification. Let's see here, I'm trying to show some of these. Let's see your post videos consistently and ask your contacts to spread the word and subscribe. Yes, that will help, but most of them are lazy and they're not gonna do it. Most people are so lazy, you know, and it's funny, I was talking to somebody on a call before this, and we had talked about a year ago on how to grow a YouTube channel for this person, and this person says, yeah, I got a little lazy and I did nothing, I did nothing, I did nothing for a year. Wow, and I said, well, in the past year, I think I posted 260 videos, and it doesn't make me better. It's just, I do a grind, I do a grind, man, I want the money. Now, let me tell you what motivates me. Let me tell you something that motivates me. A couple things, I'm gonna give you a couple examples. There's a guy out there named Bobby Parish at Flave City and he started off doing videos just a few years ago where he would go into a Trader Joe's and Aldi's, Costco, and he would pick up products and he would read the labels and he would tell you if those products were good or not.  And that's what he built his channel on, okay? And since then, since then, he's written a cookbook that is now number 64 out of three million books on Amazon, okay? He is moving to Boca Raton, Florida. He talked about it yesterday. He does lives that are two or three hours long where he's cooking with his family and he put in the work and he's now making millions of dollars a year off a YouTube channel, reading nutritional labels to people. You know, now he's got personality but he didn't so much in the beginning. It took him time. It took effort, okay? My first videos were God awful. They were bad and they're not great now but they're a lot better than what they were. Let's see your video, this, what is Super Chat? Oh, yes, yes, let me talk about Super Chat. Thank you for bringing that up. Super Chat is when you hit that dollar sign right there and you give me a comment and it's gonna pop up the tile and it's gonna have like a glowing color like a yellow or red or green or whatever. And I welcome a Super Chat, man, you could donate a dollar, $5, $10 or a million. I would really prefer a million dollars, okay? So if you wanna do that, that would be great. I don't think even YouTube would allow that but if you wanna try it and go right ahead you wanna donate a million dollars, that'd be awesome. But yeah, all you gotta do is hit that dollar sign there and it starts a Super Chat. You can also send me a sticker if you like this. It helps support the channel.  I give away money and I try to teach you. So those are a few other things you could do. Now, to get monetized and somebody brought this up earlier, I'm trying to show your content just roadblocks and it won't do it, it has censored you for some reason. I don't know why it's doing that. Yes, and somebody else has come up with another thing but once you become monetized and that is 4,000 hours of watch time in the previous 12 months, you don't have to have a channel for 12 months. I mean, if you get 4,000 hours of watch time in three months, it qualifies. And you have to have 1,000 subscribers. Now, once that happens, you get a sip of this tea here. Once that happens, it opens up a world of different things for you. First off, it opens up monetization. As soon as you qualify, monetize your videos, guys.  Well, I got news for you. YouTube is putting ads on your videos anyhow without your permission right now. They just started that, I think like a month ago and they don't pay you, okay? They don't pay you unless you're monetized. So you might as well get monetized. And think about this. But let's say you could control it to where you don't want any advertisements on your videos. Do you think that YouTube wants to show your videos to people if they can't put ads on there and they can't make money? I mean, think about it. Their business model is they make money on ads on your videos and you don't want ads on there? I mean, you're not playing fairly in the game. You're just not, okay? So as soon as you can monetize, make sure you do that. Once you get monetized, you can do a couple other things, which I haven't done. I haven't done this, okay? I'm gonna do it. But you can put a join button below your videos where people can join for 499 a month and you get, I think, 60 or 70% of it.  That's no money at all, JR. That's nothing. Well, imagine 499 times 100 people. That's 500 bucks. Or 1,000 people. That's $5,000, okay? Or 10,000 people, you know? That's $50,000, okay? Now it starts getting appealing, doesn't it? And you're gonna get 60 or 70% of that and I can't remember which it is. Now listen, can you do Super Chat only on live streams or regular videos that are posted? You can only do them on live streams, okay? So Super Chat is reserved for live streams. That's the one place you can do it. So I told you you can do a join button. The other thing you can do is start a Patreon. Patreon is a separate thing you can put on your channel where people can join and get extra perks. I'm gonna be doing a Patreon very soon. I'm gonna be giving people access to more information on how to make money online. I've got it really dialed in now to where we figured it out and people like getting this information and making money off it. So I'm gonna do a Patreon where you guys can join and get that extra information and get that extra help that you need.  Also, you'll get discounts on any of my courses, which is a pretty cool thing. Let me see here. Yeah, the dollar sign. If you see the dollar sign on the right of your comment area, you can do a Super Chat, correct, correct. If he has a sponsor, you can do anytime. Okay, yeah, the other thing is you may wanna do sponsored videos. So what's a sponsored video? The sponsored video is where somebody pays me to talk about their product, okay? And I do a video on that. Now, it's really kind of interesting because the past few months I've gotten kind of several requests a week to do sponsored videos. If you notice on my channel, I haven't done any of them. I haven't done any of them because what I'm doing essentially when I do a sponsored one is I'm promoting somebody else. Now, I've had them say, hey, I'll pay you $1,500 or $1,000 for 10 minutes. Now, you guys say, well, $1,000 for 10 minutes, pretty good, JR. You know, that's what, $6,000 an hour. But it's not really true. And it's not really true because when I take time out of my channel to do a video on somebody else's product, I'm taking away from my own product, okay? In addition to that, it's really not 10 minutes because I've got to record that. I've got to edit that. I've got to upload that. So it turns into maybe an hour or two hours. And you go, well, still $1,000 for two hours, pretty good. Not if I have other things I can do I can make more money on, okay? Not if I have other things I can do I can make more money on. The sponsored videos, nothing's there anything wrong with it. There's channels that that's all they do is sponsored videos. But the thing is that's, I have other things I can do to make money on. So I don't want to do a lot of it. And the sponsored videos don't get watched as much as one like this one where I'm just teaching you how to do something. I'm not selling you anything. People like that even better. Mostly getting sponsored benefits like perks. Yes, that is true. And video this, do me a favor. Let me know if you have a channel and anybody else who has a channel that wants subscribers I want you to put in the chat. Yes, I have a channel. Yes, I want subscribers.  I want to get you more subscribers. But another thing you can do is help out other YouTubers. I recently joined, what's it called? What's it called? Clubhouse. If you know about Clubhouse you can put a comment in there if you're using Clubhouse. And then Clubhouse, I'm going to start doing rooms in Clubhouse that will help other video content makers build their channel, okay? And the way I'm going to do that is we're going to do collaborations. So if you've got a YouTube channel and you need help growing it and it's a subject that matches with my channel I may want to talk to you and I may want to interview you from my channel. Another step here. So if you do have a channel, this is my couple, this is cool. If you do have a channel and you want subscribers let me know here and let's see, yes to both needs resurrection. It's easy to do Richard, just start making content man. And don't worry about it being perfect. Don't worry about that. Don't worry about that. Just make some content, get some stuff out there. And don't intentionally make crappy videos that have no value, I'm not saying that. But man, don't worry about it being perfect. Perfection is truly procrastination relabeled, okay? Perfection is truly procrastination relabeled, okay? You're not going to be perfect. You could say, well, I'm a perfectionist. I want everything perfect. Well, you'll be disappointed your entire life is not going to happen.  They never will be, but they've made me money because I did them. And that's the big key, you got to do them. Let me click on here, Alex, you got censored by YouTube for some reason. Yes, I have a channel and I would like to get more subscribers. Okay, everybody, see Alex Bailey there? Make sure you subscribe to him. Write down his name somewhere, jot it off to the side, subscribe to Alex Bailey. Lifelong learning education. Write down lifelong learning education. Write it down, subscribe to that channel. This cost you nothing guys, nothing. But if you subscribe, it's going to help these people. Who else has one? The video of this. I don't know, I have a channel. By the way, I'm just watching some educational and meme stuff. Okay, video of this. Make sure, make sure you subscribe. Who else we got in here? Richard Brown. I want you to subscribe to his. Sounds good, cheers, repatriot. Hey, add Patreon in there, Richard. So subscribe to Richard. Who else we got in here? It's like a lot of the same people that are commenting, which is fine. Just Roblox, I know he has a channel, or she has a channel, I don't know, just Roblox. I don't know if you're male or female, you can put that in there. Melvin, share your links on social media that was commented he put earlier. If you have a channel, you can write down Melvin Lunar and subscribe to his channel. And let me get, let me get a gift card. How about a gift card? Anybody interested in a gift card? I got Apple, Apple here. It's 10 to $500. Anybody interested in an Apple card? Anybody interested in an Apple card? If you're interested in Apple, let me know. And don't say I want Netflix, I want good. I've got an Apple card. This is what I got. If you want Apple, just Roblox, I'm a male. Cool, I'm gonna remember that now. Just Roblox, I got you. And I checked out your channel, Just Roblox, you're growing. And Roblox, I think is a gaming type thing. Is that right? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that's a gaming. And gaming channels do really well on YouTube. And I don't know anything about gaming because I don't, I don't game. I don't do it. But anyhow, this is the gift card. If you're interested, put in that chat section that you are interested in, you want this gift card and I'm gonna be given away. What is wait, wait? What is wait, wait? Do I gotta wait for something? What am I waiting for? Just Roblox, why am I waiting? What's going on? Tell me. Thanks guys, people subscribing, aren't they, Alex? Isn't that cool? Isn't that cool that you're getting subscribers?  Uh, just wait, wait. Roblox. I don't know what that means. I don't know that it's gaming. Okay, video of this, I am. Okay, so here's the card. I'm gonna go ahead and peel it off now.    And if you can see it, you just pull off this tab right there. And then that separates. You know, even Apple has cool gift cards. I mean, they're so much nicer than the other ones, right? And then I pull it out of here, this little slot right here. I wanna make sure you guys can see it. Okay, and here's the gift card. All right. And this is worth 10, what was it? 10 to $500 for this gift card right here. 10 to 500. Wait, I'm lagging. Oh, he says he's lagging. Apple card for my wife. Ah, okay. All right, Rachel, maybe you'll get it but get ready to hold up the number right now. Are you guys ready for the number? You can use this on a Mac, iPhone, iPad, watch. Hey, look, look what I got for Christmas. Isn't that nice? Got me to watch accessories, Apple Store, Arcade, music, Apple TV plus and iTunes. You can use them on any of these things. Are you ready for the number? Here it is. Did you get it? Did you get the number? I know, right? That's neat. That's terrible. That's cruel. Let me hold it up here. Let me hold it up there. There's the number. It's trying to focus. So there it is. X six, P, R, M, Q, six, M, H, L, Y, H, N, five, Z, Q. All right, once again. X, six, P, R, M, Q, six, M, H, L, Y, H, N, five, Z, Q. Does everybody have that? Everybody have that?  You get it? All right, I'm gonna pull it away. Pull it away. Okay, so let me know when you got the gift card. Let me know how much you got. Put that chat section right there. Somebody's bound to get it right soon. So just put that chat section there. Let's talk about your YouTube channel again. Once you've decided on this content, once you're trying to get subscribers and you're doing the right titles, you gotta put a description in, guys. This is a big thing I screwed up in the beginning. I had no descriptions, nothing. And that's like prime real estate, you know? It's like having a jewelry store and you open a jewelry store and people come in, you've got all these jewelry cases and there's nothing in it. There's nothing there.  And I wanted my YouTube channel to grow. It won't do it, you gotta do that. You gotta do the description. Now the next thing you gotta do is tags. You gotta do tags because what happens is people go to YouTube and let's say they're searching how to grow a YouTube channel, okay? Or how to make content that gets views. If I don't have those tags in my video, YouTube has no way of finding my video to share the video to those people. You've gotta have tags. That's where TubeBuddy will help you. That's what I said earlier. Below in the description, after this video ends, there's gonna be a link for TubeBuddy. You need to click it. You need to get TubeBuddy. It's free. It doesn't cost you anything. If you use my link and you decide to upgrade, you can get a 30% discount, which is pretty cool. But it will suggest the tags for your videos that are gonna work.  But if you don't put tags, there's no way YouTube can find your videos. You gotta understand how this works, okay? Making a video is not enough. How are people gonna find the video when they search? They find it through tags. You have to put tags on your videos. Super important. I didn't do it at the beginning. And I didn't get any views. Well, what do you know? Okay, now I do it. Now I get views. Will TubeBuddy help with description? You know, Richard, yes and no. It's gonna give you suggestions of stuff, but it doesn't really do a description. What I would tell you for a description is in the beginning of the description, have a link where people can opt in for something. And the first part of your description, have a little link there. It could be like a free course. It could be a free download, whatever. And the reason you wanna have that, that's gonna help you build your list. Now the next part of the description should be what the video is about. If you don't wanna write what the video is about, and I get that, you could take, you know, the first two or three paragraphs of what you said in the video. And that's what I do with mine. And then what I do below that is I put timestamps of different subjects. So I'll say it, you know, seven minutes I talked about the color of your landing page. Seven minutes, 50 seconds, I talked about the headline on your landing page. At eight minutes and four seconds. And then when you click on those, it will go to that part of your video. You don't have to figure this out. All you gotta know is where you talked about it. And if you just type in that time right there, YouTube will make that a link. And when you click on it, it will just go to that part of your video. It's pretty cool. It's built into YouTube. And a lot of people don't use that. So you really wanna organize it. What I see a lot of people doing, and I've been guilty of it too, is that they spend a lot of time making a whole lot of videos that they don't spend any time editing or optimizing the videos, okay? You would do better to do two or three videos a week and really edit it well and optimize it well so that people can find the videos. Then they do 10 videos a week that have no optimization and no editing and no description or any of that. Because at least people will be able to find those two or three videos versus the 10 that they're never gonna find. They're just never gonna find, you're wasting your time. Now I wanna talk about something else in one second. Hang on, tea's pretty good today. So here's the next thing I wanna talk about.  Now the most views you're ever gonna get are for suggested videos.  How do you become a suggested video? Well, obviously through interaction, and you guys have really helped me out a lot. Richard Brown, cheers. Here's the thing, you want that interaction.  That really helps this video distribution. It shows interaction. So then YouTube says, hey, there's this video and a lot of people are interacting with it. Maybe we should check it out. So the YouTube algorithm goes over and checks out your video. And it says, should we suggest this video? Hmm, we make money on videos. Is this a video we can make money on? Now, here's a big key. When you make your videos, they wanna put at least four ads on your video. They can't do that if you're doing two minute videos. It's not possible. They can't squeeze them in there. So they're gonna look at your video and go, yeah, that's not a good one to put ads on. Maybe we won't suggest that video. So I think the optimum, they're gonna tell you on YouTube, you need to have at least an eight minute video. They're pretty much just coming out with that. Now you need to have an eight minute video. I do 10 to 14 minutes, sometimes 20 minutes. And the reason I do that is they can put more ads on. So when they go and look at my video and they say it's got a lot of interaction. People liking it, they're commenting on it. And it's 10 minutes or longer. Yeah, we can put ads on there. We're gonna show this video. So that's another key. How long are your videos? If you're making a bunch of two and three minute videos, you're not gonna get interaction. Now there is a caveat to this. And people are gonna say, well, I should just make four hour long videos. No, your video length should be as long as it takes to get your point across and to get the content out without boring people, okay?   People aren't gonna watch it because there's nothing worthwhile to watch. Richard Brown, these are golden nuggets. Thank you so much, Richard, I appreciate it. These are just things I've learned in the past year. And I've gone from, I think I had 1,000 subscribers in the beginning and I've got almost 4,000, something almost 5,000, which is not huge. But here's, oh yeah, I want to share another thing with you, here's the thing. What percent is your channel growing?  If you know Excel and you got an Excel spreadsheet and you see your channel's growing, you start plugging in the numbers. You know, I talked to you a couple of minutes ago about a guy named Graham Stephan. And Graham Stephan was selling real estate, making 400,000 a year and started a YouTube channel and one day he noticed he made $1.50 something in a single day off YouTube ads and he was like, oh my God, $1.50, that's great. And you may say, well, he's insane. No, because he knew it was growing and he could grow it. Now he makes millions of dollars a year off ads on his videos and all he talked about was like, which credit card's the best one and where you should invest your money and the best real estate to buy. It's all a financial channel, okay? Which brings me to my last point before I get off today. What type of niche are you gonna pick? This is super important, guys. This is super important. Let's see here. Wow, another secret tips I need to write down. Thank you so much, Melvin. I thank you so much, guys, for these comments. I mean, they mean the world to me. You have no idea. If you're not gonna donate to the channel, put a comment, do that. Okay, you owe me a comment. Just do a comment, don't I? I really appreciate that. But the last part I'm gonna get to on here is really for 2021, become a different person. I don't wanna say better, become a different person. I try to do that on a daily basis. It's not easy to do. I'm like anybody else. I have lazy traits. I have things I don't wanna do. I get to where I don't wanna do stuff. I get down, I get lazy, get tired. But I force myself to do stuff I know I should do. I force myself. Example, yesterday I said, well, I'm gonna come home and I'm gonna get on my bike. I have one of these bikes. It's called a Mix Bike, Mix Fitness. And it has one of the big screens. People walking through the workout and I said, well, I don't wanna go through a workout today. I wanna go through one of their rides and they have all these different rides in different countries and you can go through the countryside and you're doing a ride and you can set your own pace and what speed and the heart rate you wanna know that. And I said, I'm gonna ride the bike for an hour. I'm gonna ride the bike for an hour. And I picked one of the rides and then as soon as I started the ride I noticed it was a 30 minute ride. I'm like, ah, that's all right. I'll do a 30 minute ride and then I'll do another 30 minute ride. So I did that. I did the 30 minute ride and I picked another ride and I looked up at the screen and it was a 20 minute ride. And I'm like, ah, I was gonna ride for an hour so I've got 30 minutes and 20 minutes that gives me 50 minutes. I could just stop at 50. I don't have to do 60 minutes, not necessary. And then I told myself, is that what you said you were gonna do? You said, you said you were gonna do an hour. So what you need to do now is you need to do a third ride. That's what you need to do. You need to do a third ride. So when I went to pick again, I couldn't find a 10 minute one. I had to get a 20 minute one. So what did that do? 20, 20 and 30, gotta put me at an hour, 10 minutes and that's what I ended up doing. So it's those little micro decisions. When you say you're gonna do something, you gotta not only do it, right? But you gotta sometimes do more than what you say you're gonna do. What are you gonna do with your channel this year? What are you gonna do with your life this year?  But if you back off a little bit and you don't do what you're supposed to do for a day, cause you say, well, that doesn't matter that much cause I did this. I'm telling you everything matters. Everything matters. And here's why everything matters. If you say, well, you know, I worked out those three days so I can take four days off or whatever, even though I said I was gonna work out five days. If you do that, you set up this thing in your mind to where you say, well, I'm not really as good as I say I am because I don't do what I say I'm gonna do. And if you don't do what you're gonna do, you're more likely not to do a good job on the things you do do. How much effort are you really putting into the things you do on a daily basis?  You're like, eh, I get by, I got it done.  Do your best for 2021. Here's what I want you to do. Do everything you're supposed to do. Just do it, okay? Don't wait, go ahead and do it. Do the things you're supposed to do. Man, I haven't always practiced this my whole life.  And then I want you to do the very best you can do in every single thing you do. And think about how this will affect your life. It's gonna make you stronger.  And if you don't believe me, think about this. Think about this. If you say I'm gonna do push-ups and I'm gonna do push-ups four days a week, how many push-ups four days a week? Right now, let's say I can do five push-ups. Now I know what I can do and generally when I do push-ups I do over 100. I do three sets and they're usually like 35 to 40 and I try to do it in 40 seconds and I can usually do 115, 118, something like that. But let's say you can only do five and three days a week you get down on the floor and you do two or three. Two or three, that's all you do. Could you ever get to 10 or 20? And the answer is no. And the answer is no because you never did what you could do. You didn't do the max you could do. Now, change that scenario and let's say you work out three days a week but you know you can do five. So every day you try to do at least five and then one day you get to six. Whoa, you could do six now. And you keep pushing it and then the next week you're at seven, maybe eight, okay? And then it may be three months, you're doing 10. You start off at five, you've doubled your output because of what? Because of two things. Because you did it and because you did all you could do. That's the key guys.  Don't do just a little bit less than what you can do because it's easy. Do more than what you can do and push yourself. Push yourself. You know, if life is about anything at all it's about achievement. It's about achievement and I don't mean always money, okay? It could be exercise. It could be being a good dad, a good husband, a good wife, good mother, good sister, brother, you know, helping homeless. It could be any number of things but it is achieving things. You're not gonna feel good if you don't achieve something. You're never gonna feel good.  I'm telling you. And you won't become a better person. What other point are we here? Nobody's been able to explain that to me. Nobody's been able to say, I know the reason we're here is that we're supposed to sleep a lot and watch TV. That's the main reason humans are on earth. And I don't think that's the case. I don't think that's the case at all. I think we're here to achieve things and it's not always money. Money comes. Money's nice. Money's helpful. Keeps you healthy, right? Keeps you comfortable. But it's not the main reason. The main reason is achievement. I make money off my channel but what I'm really getting off on is that people are listening. People are showing up. People are commenting. People are talking to me. I'm like, wow! Didn't know those people before. All these great people on here. Let's see, Richard Brown, Video This, Jerry Clements. I mean, I can just go through tons of these people here. And I can say, wow, I got to Alex Bailey. I got to know these people. Lifelong learning education. I got to know all these people because I put forth some effort. And I want to read some of your comments here. Jerry Clements, I'm noticing more videos without somebody appearing on them. Top 10 list or dark screen with nature sounds. Are those profitable as videos with someone appearing? I want to hit that profitability niche in just a second. I didn't cover that. I want to cover that before I leave. I think it is not. Maybe it is. Must have the right mindset. Money is temporary. Yes, okay, so here's the deal about the type of niche you're in. YouTube is going to pay you based on how profitable your niche is, okay? Now, your profitability of your niche is going to have to do with how easy it is to target your audience for an advertiser. For an advertiser, okay? So let me take the low end of the spectrum where you can get a lot of views, but it's super hard to target the audience. And that would be prank videos. Prank videos, okay? So I could do a prank channel and it's going to get a ton of views because it's funny and it's entertaining. Now here's the question. Who are the people that are watching prank videos? The answer is, it could be anybody. It could be anybody. So if I'm an advertiser and I want to focus in on people who want to buy stocks in the stock market, do I go to a prank channel? Probably not. Because if I go to a prank channel, I don't know who the audience is. Now, my channel is about making money online. Period, making money online. Now, an advertiser is going to look at my channel and go, okay, I want to hit people who want to make money, make money online that would be buying stocks. There's the channel for me. Now, you can get a dollar to $5 per thousand views from YouTube and you're going to get, I think 60 or 70%, I can remember what the percentage is. One up to, I don't know, maybe $20. I looked the other day, mine's at 13. So every thousand views I'm making, I'm making 13, they're charged at like 18, 20. So I get $13 for every thousand views. That's pretty dang good, okay? That's pretty dang good, I'm happy with that. Because I know if I just put out more videos, like let's say I've got X number, I got a little over 700 videos. If I had 1400, guess what that would do to my income? It would at least double it, but probably much more than that because then I'll have a bigger audience too and I'll even get more distribution. So think about your niche. When you do your niche, how easy is it to target your audience and is your audience an audience that's gonna buy stuff? So let's say you have a cooking channel and it's barbecue stuff. If I'm selling kitchen gadgets, I can target my audience pretty good on your channel. So you're probably gonna get a high payout.  You're gonna have a very low CPM or a very low payout, advertiser payout for your channel for that reason. So that's what you wanna think about. If you're in it for the money, and I am, I'll be honest with you, I'm in it for the money. I mean, I wanna help people. I wanna help people make money, but I also wanna make money, okay? And I don't use anything wrong with that. I'm very open about that. Anything I charge for is a good value, but I do wanna make money and you should too. I mean, how are you gonna help a charity if you don't have any money?  You know, what are you gonna do without any money? You know, you don't have any money, it's tough. Not that there's anything wrong with people who don't have money. I'm just saying you can do more if you have money. Let me see here. I think it is not, maybe it is. Must have the right mindset, of course. Money is temporary. It is temporary, but it's helpful. It's helpful, okay?  That's the other end of the spectrum. Without money, it's poverty. And dependency, okay? If you don't have money, you're now dependent. You're dependent on the government or handouts or leftovers, okay? I've done some videos on the homeless and trying to help the homeless. And man, it's a sad situation. It really is. I think traveling is the best after the pandemic. Could be, I mean, I watch some good travel bloggers. I watch Mark Wiens. Check out Mark Wiens. If you haven't watched Mark Wiens, Mikey Chen. Check out Mikey Chen, Strictly Dumpling. These are all channels. If you like travel, man, you wanna check these out. Best ever food review show. I would tell you to check that out. That's a really good one. Food Ranger. Food Ranger's another good one. Check out any of those. Let me see here. YouTube is trying to censor everybody today here. If a man die, you cannot use your money unless you have children. This is true, okay? I get what you're saying. Money in itself has no value. But what you do with it has a lot of value. Now, you could use money for bad things too, right? So you could have a lot of money and use it for a lot of bad things. So it's really your heart. What are you gonna do with it? So if you've got the work ethic and you put forth the effort and you build an audience and you make some money, you can do a lot of good things in the world. But you've got it. And I'll tell you something, money. Money is a lot like alcohol. Here's how money is like alcohol. Money is like alcohol because it accentuates who you are. Think about this. You take somebody who has a bad personality and you pour alcohol on them and guess what happens? That personality gets accentuated. Whatever that personality is. If they're a good person, they're probably a happy drunk. Same thing with money. If you take somebody who's stingy and mean and then you give them a lot of money, guess what? They become more stingy and more mean. If you take somebody who's generous and you give them a lot of money, guess what they do? They share with other people.  That's what they do, okay, I think. No money make people to be greed. Yeah, I don't think so. I think it's important to earn money. Money is a, I guess, what would you call it? A temperature. It's taken a temperature of how good you're doing and what you're doing, okay? That's what it's doing. It's taken a temperature of that. Nothing's wrong with money. Money doesn't even really exist, okay?  If I put out a lot of value, I get a lot of value back. If I don't put out any value, I don't get any value back. I mean, that's basically how it works. So anyhow, we all have our opinions about it. That's my opinion and I do stuff for charity. I help people out. I hope you will too. I hope this session's helped you out today, you guys. If it has, put in that chat section there, you know, what you thought of today's training. I know it was a little bit more feeling, you know, and how you should feel about the world and life and all that, but let's face it. We want to get our mind right for 2021, right? We want to eat right. We want to exercise. We want to work hard. We want to put good content out in the world. We want to help other people. I know I do. If you do those things, of course, of course, of course, you can help people out. Let me read one more comment here before I get out of here. Jerry Clements, right now I have my cell phone and a decent laptop with no camera. Yes, it's old. Any suggestions for YouTube channels that show how to build a channel using a cell phone? You don't even need a channel for it. Just use it. Just use it. As a matter of fact, they have a, I would say this. I would say this, Jerry, get an external microphone. I got one the other day and I don't want to pull it out because it's underneath my computer there and the whole screen won't move around. But get an external microphone. It's super important because if you're using a cell phone, thank you so much, Jerry. I really appreciate that. If you're, you know, he just gave me a nice super chat guys, I really appreciate Jerry. If you're using a cell phone, you're gonna only try to do it this way. If you're further than about this, the sound's gonna get really tinny. As soon as you get like way out here, the sound's gonna get tinny. Okay, so I like to set, and I film with cell phones every now and then, I've got one of my iPhone. This iPhone's great. It has a great phone, nothing wrong with it. The microphone will get tinny. And the reason the microphone will get tinny is because the microphone is set to get all the sound around, okay? 360 degrees, that's how it's set. If you have an external microphone, like when you can clip right here, and they have a little wired ones now that will plug into your phone that are like, I don't know, $20, $30? I just got one, I think it was $30. And I have a wireless one too. But if you have one that you can put on your shirt, or your lapel or something, if you're gonna be further than about two feet, you need an external microphone. The biggest deterrent to people watching your videos is poor audio, poor audio. If you're gonna film indoors, you can't see it now, but on both sides of my office here, I have these big packing blankets that are on the walls that absorb sound so that it sounds better in here, okay? Than what it really does. If I don't have these on the walls, it sounds very echoey. So really, I would say if nothing else, look on YouTube before having good audio on your videos. That's what I would search. Not filming with a cell phone. That's not what you want. You wanna have good audio. And my big suggestion to you is that one of those external microphones, I have a link, but I don't have it right now, but one of those external microphones that plugs into your cell phone, that does it. That does it right there. There's more expensive ones like shotgun microphones. I've got a $650. I got this, where is it, where is it? This is one of the best ones right here. Sinehouser, as you can see. This is like a $650 microphone. And this has got like the little clip here that goes on my lapel. And I use this for shooting my regular videos that you guys listen to. And then there's another one that hooks onto the camera and that sends the signal. You don't need it, okay? I mean, I have it now and it's nice and I use it and improves the sound quality, but you don't necessarily need it. Okay, I just got light here. I guess, what time? What time we got here guys? Oh my God, we've almost been an hour. An hour, that's craziness, right? We've had a good time though. And I really appreciate you guys being here. I didn't get a chance to get more Amazon cards. I will do that this week. So next weekend I'll have more Amazon cards.

You can send me messages. I will address those messages. If you're interested in me doing that, the 100 day challenge, I need you to put something in the comments. I'm not gonna do this if you're not interested. Why would I? It'd be a waste of time. But if you are interested in me helping you out for 100 days. And let me give you a little prefix in case you don't know me. I started online in 2009. I own Survival Cave Food. You can search it. You'll probably get about 24 million hits for Survival Cave Food. We've done millions and millions and millions of dollars of that survival food. I own multiple courses. I've sold millions of dollars of digital and physical products. And in this 100 day challenge, if I do it, I'm just gonna share with you what I did to make this money. So if you guys are interested in that and you think it's something that's gonna be helpful to you, let me know. Cause I take 30 minutes out of my day every single day.
