I don't know the youtube economics of it, but she has 6000 patrons paying $3 - $5/month to support doing things like this. https://www.patreon.com/simonegiertz/

  That is real money! So after Patreon take off their 8% that is $250K per year. Then the views from the videos. Becoming a millionaire from a video channel that is just about yourself is ridiculous. Anyway, I won't be subscribing. I prefer stock English rather than spoken with 'upspeak'. Someone just talking about themselves with every sentence ending with 'upspeak' makes me find something better to do. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_rising_terminal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_rising_terminal

    For people who don't run a business 250k per year sounds like a lot. But after paying employees and contractors, office space, workshop space, materials, equipment, insurance, airfare, taxes, ... I'm not sure that there's enough left to call them a millionaire.
