    I’m so sorry I understand how to make money and still find value in YouTube.

      [X] press to doubt.

      You shitpost on the internet acting like you and Google are buddies and you’re ok with your data being collected because you “understand how to make money and find value in youtube.”

      I’ll access all the same content and not be ttracked. Luckily chumps like you will keep on clicking those ads and it’ll be too much of a headache stopping people like me from blocking them.

          Well great, I neither pay nor do I watch the ads, I’ll save my 12$ a month elsewhere

            Yup. Thatsthepoint.jpg. See what you did there? You don’t find value, you don’t want to pay, and you stopped. Imagine that. Instead of bitching to the void incessantly you summoned up some will power and stopped using the service.

              Oh I’m not bitching, I’m enjoying an ad free YouTube without paying, while I do see value in the service, I don’t have money just laying around to throw ever so willingly at it, while I could spend it on a meal or two.

              If I can get what I need for free then I’ll do it, if I can’t then I’ll move to something else.

              Now imagine that.

        Approaching 2M +/- 100k actually. I’m fairly well off, not that it has anything to do with here.

            Nah, my house is probably only 450k in that equation. A nice 2300 sq ft ranch with partially finished basement. The rest is in investments and small business.

                  Not bad for that age, if you have a mid-sized ranched that’s only worth $450k then cost of living must be next to nothing so ~$1.5m might last a couple years.

                  Not quite retirement money but in a better position then some.
