I guess my question is... Why do they get money from it? Is this like virtual YouTube Monopoly money? Why would anyone pay them for throwing a basketball off Kyle Field? Or acting out "slow pitch softball stereotypes?" Better question, who the F let them in the stadium in the first place?

These guys annoy the fuuudge out of me. Is it a generational thing or am I just an ass?

I agree they are over the top, but the schtick is clearly working for them and some of the stuff they pull off is impress no matter how many tries it takes

But what I've heard in the last 10 posts or so... Shouldn't that apply to Luke Bryan too? But we hand a multi page post bashing him just a few spots down. He found a schtick to make money, is talking about hunting and fishing... But we hate him but like these guys?

quote:You have to sign up to monetize your content, meaning agree to let youtube play adds before your videos and sign their T&C's. You then will get a split of the advertising dollars youtube earns off that video or videos. I think youtube takes about 45% and you get the rest. The money earned is based on number of people that click the advertisement, number of people that watch the full ad without skipping, and many other factors.
I don't fully understand how the youtube and getting paid part works
I get what Chemist said about X views = Y dollars, but if I post a video and it gets 10M views I doubt a check just shows up at my house

Just like jpc08 said in the previous reply - you have to sign up to monetize the content. I somehow ended up with about 3 videos on an old account that have between a measly 60-100k views. Back when they were newer and those views were racking up youtube started soliciting me to sign up so they could 'make me money'. Of course I ignored it. You know, not selling out and stuff. Can't buy me with $0.75 youtube!
