Finally a youtuber that doesn't think he's "changing the world" by making repetitive videos every week, basically not overestimating his job. Modest, down-to-earth, realistic about the gig.

Nate appears to be the only young person on the internet with plenty of financial security and not be bragging about it in this mad world. Glad he is doing ok, did wonder where he had gone. Also he is so right, there is only so much one can say on their subject before it comes time to end their channel, rather than keep on rehashing the same things to get clicks and £.

The constant interruptig is incredibly distracting. Please for the love of God, let him answered ONE question without cutting off his last word with another question. I feel like the answers would be so much more in depth and insightful if she would just let the guy speak. My god.

I wondered where this guy went. I’m glad he’s doing good. I liked his authenticity when he made his videos. It’s funny, I listen to My First Million podcast and I’m always looking for niche channels. I don’t totally relate, however his way of thinking about things probably helped a lot of people on a minimalist, value-oriented finance. His videos had integrity. There were some scammy finance channels especially 2 and 3 years ago. Right now, I really appreciate Joseph Carlson Show, he is very transparent.

15:47 Called “invalid traffic” and its a huge problem thousands of creators are dealing with. One day your ad rates drop 90% and there’s nothing you can do, no explanation and it can last for months. That means one day you’re making $150 a day in ad revenue, the next you’re making $10.
