How much YouTube paid me in my first month 2024 | Analytics 

As someone who use to be a content creator.. don’t get lost in letting your subscribers dictate your channel. It will make you lose who you are. You will begin to feel burnout and no longer desire to make content.

"This is for me." And the look of achievement and satisfaction. I got lost in that moment with you! Congratulations!

Once or twice a month discuss a money topic. Some ideas, how much money I spent on groceries as a solo silver for June. How much money I spent on insurance a month. How I invest money as a silver solo. All things that we as soon to be retired need to know. Take us shopping sometime. Way to go Jen!

We need an update after 6 months of being monetized! this is so inspirational and so helpful.

You are the first RU-vidr who (geniunely) openly share their revenues. I really thank you for this. Keep learning i'd say will eventually pay off.

This is one video that honestly breaks down RU-vid earnings, even better than some big RU-vid channels that always talks about RU-vid hacks

WHAAAAAAAAAAAT! Holy smokes! I sat here all night and binged your entire series and I am blown away! I appreciate you going through your analytics page and digesting what each thing means. I found that to be very helpful. I really hope you continue to update us on your progress and your earnings for a little while so we can get an idea of where it goes. As I watch this right now you have 40.7k subscribers, and I just have to continue to hear about this journey. This was great!

Your channel is definitely gonna hit 1 million subscribers! You are the only RU-vidr I have personally seen that's sharing your precise analytics and compensation without trying to sell people something. God bless you and continued success!

I just keep saying under my breath, “you go girl!!” I don’t know you but I’m so happy for you! Way to go!

I'm so impressed! Not just with how fast you monetized, but with the high amount of earnings. Never would have expected that so early. Good for you!

I love that you acknowledge it makes no sense on how RU-vid calculates your revenue. I’m amazed at how much you’re making.

Who wouldn't love an old school Gen X channel, 52 and just subscribed.

I am also 58 and work at a funeral home as a secretary … I have always worked a 2nd job … one day I thought I can’t physically do another job… so I brainstorm and ran across your videos … thank you for inspiring me as I am silver and solo too!!! Thank you for being real and proving that as a working senior the rest is still unwritten. ❤

I mentioned your video to someone by telling them how uplifting you were (to us singles out here). Keep up the good work, you made the system work for you!

I have wanted to start a channel since 2007, but I’ve been too afraid of what people might think.. isn’t that sad? You make it seem so achievable! You go, girl!

Jenn I have to tell you that I've watched A LOT of YT videos on various topics and YOU my friend have made the BIGGEST IMPACT on my life in multiple ways! 1. I love how you are just a REAL person! Meaning you're not changing who you are for the camera or for money or for likes etc. 2. You openly sharing your personal story about being let go from your job of 22 years struck a cord with me! Your COURAGE, CONFIDENCE & WILLINGNESS to just be forthright and open and honest with your viewers with no regard for the outcome ENCOURAGED me in a way that I cannot even explain! 3. You GENUINELY sharing your lack of knowledge of any kind about YT before you started your channel and then filming the entire process of working on getting monetized in order to HELP other people in their journeys down the road is like WOW! Again the honesty and forthrightness is to be RESPECTED! 4. You ACTUALLY sharing your monetized information with your viewers the way that you have is ABSOLUTELY UNHEARD of! (Those ppl that I have seen so it didn't seem real to me at all.) THIS information is what people like myself (who've thought about "trying" to start my own YT channel) REALLY need to KNOW in order to make an informed decision! 5. Your GENUINENESS, KIND SPIRIT, HONESTY, WELL SPOKEN, EDUCATED, DOWN TO EARTHNESS (not a word I know, Haha😂) are truly something to behold! Jenn I feel like you and I could be fast friends given the opportunity! So much more I'd really low to share with you but not on a public forum. So let me just leave you with this. YOU have just BLESSED me and ENCOURAGED me during a time in my life that I desperately need it! I BELIEVE in my heart that The Lord lead me to your videos tonight and that my life is going to change in a positive way because of YOU! YOU are an INSPIRATION to us ALL! Praying for your continued success my friend! Much RESPECT coming your way from your new friend in Texas! Thank YOU!!!❤

Erk, you're tempting me to start a channel myself.....you've done well!

Congratulations Jen! I have been recommending Silver and Solo to friends and church who are silver and solo. Thank you for putting all this information out here for us.

Hello, when you revealed the revenue for that month, I could literally hear you screaming out loud without hearing you scream 🤣 Your excitement didn't need to have any sound LOL. WELL DONE!! Congrats!

I bought a jar opener because of your video. So you helped that company also. 😊

That's honestly amazing achievement, and thanks for providing your insight. Getting that first paycheck from RU-vid is one of my favorite memories. I still remember it, there was lots of emotions involved. If it wasn't for my consistency and hard work (and a little bit of Famester of course), I probably wouldn't have made anything.

So happy for you Jen! What an accomplishment - and a lovely surprise.

What an achievement, congratulations! After 4 years my channel only won 331 subscribers. Just carry on.

Good for you I am a complete introvert who is forced to be an extrovert for work I would absolutely want no part of being on videos so glad others provide content

Love your videos. Congratulations 👍🏻 It’s so awesome to watch you and your channel continue to grow. You’re an inspiration to us older people living alone and learning new things. Looking forward to following your journey.

Congratulations you did it!!! So happy for you.

Congratulations Jen‼️🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉YOU DESERVE THIS‼️‼️It’s your personality and topics that are bringing you such success‼️

Congrats! Thanks for your transparency. This was really interesting.

Inspirational is what you are, on many fronts... Thank you for sharing❤❤❤

Absolutely thrilled for you! Thank you for showing us what’s possible when you dare to try!

Well done Jen. Really pleased for you.❤️❤️

Congratulations, you have earned every cent! Thank you for the look behind the You Tube curtain, it's very interesting how it all works and glad it is playing into your travel plans!

Congratulations. I actually subscribed after finding that one video you mentioned. Now you will be getting a 1099 and need to start filing taxes on a schedule C. You'll be able to write off all your expenses and your home office making these videos.

Looking forward to hearing about your travel adventures for 2025. ❤

Well done, Jen. I'm really happy for you. Keep doing what you're doing 😊

I am thrilled for you, Jen. Well done. Best wishes from the UK.

Congratulations!!! I just happened upon your channel a couple of weeks ago and now I've got to go back and start from the beginning. It's good to know that we are helping you while you are helping us.

Hearty Congratulations, Jen! So interesting to see what a monetized channel makes. Thank you for sharing this info. Beyond this, I appreciate your topics, your transparency, and your presentation style -- you "keep it real." Watching you feels like checking in with a friend a couple of times a week. ❤

Congrats on your success. Wondering if you figured out this youtube thing all on your own or was your process more structured, a course for example or you followed specific creators and did what they said. I'm working up the courage to do the same but want to follow a step by step , trusty guide. Sorry, overthinker here. And thanks for the equipment recs!

God does everything for a wise purpose, you lost your job and I know it must be very painful then but now you are doing better working for yourself monetizing your channel, walking your dog, and enjoying life. I believe when negative things happen to us there is always a more positive and much better things will come to us. God bless u Jen keep up the good work❤❤❤

Congratulations and thank you for sharing the exact details.So many people don't and of course, that's their prerogative, but if you're someone thinking about trying this, it's nice to know the possibilities.So I so appreciate tdad and I feel like i'm listening to a good friend when I watch your Videos, so thank you. Look forward to your next one.

👍great job! Having knowledge of, the experience topped with excellent communication skills on a specific topic gets it rolling!

There’s something about you, and I can’t quite place it. I’m watching you .. and it feels like you’re ‘winning’ (I hope my comment doesn’t jinx it) .. but most importantly, it feels like I’m ‘winning’ WITH you. There’s something very genuine about your subdued but earnest style. It ‘clicks.’ Your toned down cautiously optimistic happiness gave me a little jolt of happiness, too. This, on a platform where grief, anger, and woe seems too prevalent. It feels like a little glimpse of the very early unfulfilled promise of what RU-vid could be as a platform.

You have me completely inspired!!! My channel is not yet monetized, but I’m getting back to work on it ASAP. I often talk about retirement and retirement alternatives. You are such a lovely person, so happy for your success (and I see some of your newer videos are doing great!!)

Congratulations, Jen!

This is amazing, Jen! What a wonderful story and so neat to see the joy in your sharing. Thank you for that sharing, which can encourage us out here that new and surprising ventures can befall us. Love it and appreciate you 🪴

Congrats and well done you! And thanks for sharing your success - inspiring!

You are such an inspiration! I am so happy for you! May your channel continue to grow exponentially. 👏🏻🎉🎉😄🌹

Congratulations, Jen! I've heard creators say they average $300-400 per video when they have about 80k subscribers. You show that the amount can vary greatly per video. It's enough to make the time spent filming and editing worth it as a hobby that brings income, which is great. The average has to go up a lot to make this a creator's main job, but then they're also putting more time into it.

I'm on a similar journey. I've been posting 2 times a week since late November 2023, and I got monetized last week - basically all off the back of a single semi-viral video (quite spectacular to watch the views rise!) However, the difference is that my channel is built around (my "niche" as they call it) reporting news. This means that almost none of my videos are 'ever green': if people don't watch with the first 2 weeks, they probably never will. Anyway, we'll see how it goes. Good luck with your journey.

OMG Jen, I am feeling soooooo inspired by you. I, too, am being made redundant in a matter of weeks, which means now I am looking for ways of making money without having to go out to work for someone else. I am 53 years old, silver and solo just like you!! You are amazing!! Thank you and CONGRATULATIONS!

YOU GO GIRL!!! I Love your channel! wondering, I watch some of your videos twice. Will that count as two views or just once since I had already viewed it?

Thank you for this. I created a channel several months ago and gave up on it b4 I did a video. You are an inspiration to motivate me and try again. 😊

Congratulations! Here's my problem. I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer and I don't believe this could happen to me. I'll keep watching you. I need dog and cat food, plus vet care for them. ❤

I’m 53 and left the corporate world several years ago to start my own businesses. Neither have gone where I wanted them to go! Lol. The problem for me now is figuring out how to pick out what to talk about and who my audience would be. I don’t have much of life these days. I have a VERY small circle of friends. I’m a crafter that seems to like to research and buy stuff to make crafts more than I actually like to create crafts. lol. I would LOVE to travel but these days don’t have the funds to make it happen, not to mention I’m facing down some health issues. All that said, to say, I’m not sure how your videos ended up in my feed, but l’m glad they did and I just subscribed and have watched several of your videos!! Woo woo! Thanks!

Well done, Jen! Your hard work is certainly paying dividends. Continuing to look forward to your videos - it’s great being one of the Silver and Solo Squad 😊 Enjoy the rest of your weekend ❤

Congrats. Love the advice. I am happy you are getting paid for them.

Hello, My name is Val and you have just inspired me as a 57 year old that is interested in Youtubing and did not know where to start. I am relating to you because you share the basics without the flash and expensive gear. This is great and I hope you continue to grow and share. Be well❤

Congratulations 🎊🎉🍾🎈 One piece of advice. Stop calling your channel “little”. You are an inspiration to a lot of people. There is nothing little about that. Own your contribution to what is good on these platforms. Good luck on your continued journey and success 👍🏾

Good morning and congrats Jen!! ❤

Hi Jen I just watched your video and I felt compelled to say firstly, boy did I need that. And secondly, you are incredibly likable. I just started my RU-vid channel a week ago and I have four subscribers and I’ve been furiously trying to figure out how to make content and then posting it. I’m doing pretty good for my first time, but lack of subscribers has me questioning if this is the right move. Attempting to monetize social media is some thing that was born out of the beloved wildly successful company started and enjoyed for 10 years has hit a crossroads. After watching your video, I thought, gee maybe I should post about that too. Going to go watch all the rest of your videos. I would consider myself honored if you would be one of my followers. I think you really were what I needed today.

That is amazing! Well you bring value to us in your videos. Congrats, you deserve to succeed! 🎉

That's a great achievement Jen!!! You did it, girl! 💃💃💃💃💃

Congratulations!❤

Thank you Jen! Excellent information. Truly inspiring. Don’t stop!

Good for you! Glad I was here form the start, seeing you grow! Inspirational!

That is fantastic! Well done!

Congratulations!!! I enjoy your videos✨

Congratulations and kudos Jen! I am so happy and proud for you. Keep up the videos and we'll keep watching them. 😊❤👍 --Paula from Ohio USA

Congratulations and thank you for informing us!

Congrats! Been subscribed for a week and loving your videos!

Wow that is phenomenal! I really did not know this....kudos to you for stepping up and out to share your life's adventures here!

So happy for you! I hope to follow in your footsteps, but I’m not getting it done. You are killing it! Go girl!

Congratulations! Well done.

Congrats, Jen! Love your videos!

Great! Thank you very much! You're quite an inspiration.

Phenomenal!!!! This is awesome! Congratulations!!!!

So very happy for you! ❤️

Congratulations! So happy for you!

Jen, I am super happy for you! This is your travel fund. I promise to watch each and every video you post. This is very cool.

Jen, this makes me so happy to see! I have always wondered how the RU-vid world and monetization works. I appreciate you sharing this experience with us. Sending you positive vibes for a super prosperous remainder of 2024!

Awesome! You worked damn hard for that! Congrats!

Thank you for the inspiration! I had a RU-vid channel for a long time but it just sat there but after watching this video I renamed it and started a crochet channel with my daughter. I’m 58 yrs old. Thank you 😊

I really enjoyed your video on safely traveling alone. Unique and helpful content. Yay you!

Congrats, and thank you for sharing these details. I've wondered about doing such work over the past few years but hadn't investigated the details. Clearly, it can pay if the effort and quality of content are there.

Congratulations!! This is soo awesome!! Blessings to you!🙏🏾

I know you were so emotional! Hearing your journey on how you was let go from that job was a blessing in disguise! You don’t know how much you’ve inspired me! You enjoyyyyy and may these silver years be the BEST years in Jesus Christ name! ❤

Congratulations!

Wow…amazing. And love the transparency and frank presentation. Certainly inspiring me to put fear aside and jump in myself.

That is awesome, Jen!! Good for you!!

your killin it well done!

Congratulations Jen!🎉 I found your channel about a month ago and your videos are great for us GenXers…timely, open and informational. As I prepare for starting my own channel, I was waiting to see today’s video and…what an eye opener! Way to go, keep up the good work. Woot woot!🎉😀🥳

Wow Jen, you are raking in the Big Bucks, congratulations. Apparently, you are very popular!

Fabulous and good for you! Brings a smile to my face - great achievement!

Amazing! Congratulations on your hard work!

🎉 CONGRATULATIONS to YOU! 🎉 I’m on Social Security Disability, but I’ll be 65 in a month so I believe at that time it will just be called Social Security. I’ll be checking into it.❤ ANYWAY, my disability pays me $820 a month! Thankfully, my adult daughter & I live together.

Wow congratulations!

Have just discovered your channel. Great stuff and congratulations!!🎉🎉

Wonderful! Glad you started this channel.

Thanks for being so transparent. It gives me motivation to restart my channel. I am so glad for you. You are so easy to listen to and come across as super genuine in which people want in their life. I think most are sick of fake and phony
