YouTube, although marketed as a great entrepreneurship channel, is nothing of this sort, and the stats tell that story , that only a rare few can make a living out of it.
And this is part of a larger "scam" being perpetuated currently, that today is a golden age of entrepreneurship and that's the job of the future , mostly because of all kinds of platforms(like Amazon fulfillment, t-shirt printing, etc) open so many new opportunities for entrepreneurship.
While the stats tell a different story , that there's a decline in entrepreneurship, and if you look carefully, you'll see how platforms actually suck the core out of many small businesses and leave them to run empty shells, businesses largely without a competitive advantage or value creation.
