  • welcome everyone to Q and a time with beauty pie.

  • For some reason, you guys like the's.

  • Thank you, God, I hate these stories.

  • I don't care.

  • Stop posting them Anyway, I posted one asking you guys to ask me questions, so let's go.

  • Obviously, there are new sources that you don't agree with or like, but are there any you actually recommend off course?

  • This may be controversial.

  • I think there's definitely a couple that are are good, but I think there's an underlying issue with most of them where it's as if a journalist jobs functions the same way as it is for YouTubers, where they're paid for clicks on their articles.

  • So they're highly motivated to get more people to read their article, and that leads to a lot of Clickbait.

  • It leads to a lot of hot takes, and it makes you wonder what happened to journalism when it used to be subscription base, so they didn't have to rely on these tactics.

  • That being said, why did we have an audience care about any of these sides anyway?

  • Just because they have a news website?

  • We give it some sort of voice of authority when In reality, most people don't seem to care anyways, I don't know.

  • It's like even sometimes when there's a hot take on a website that no one's heard about.

  • But you see that it's a news websites.

  • You're like, Oh my God, this is so stupid.

  • When rallies like it doesn't matter.

  • I guess my point is I'm over it.

  • I don't care.

  • No, that's not true.

  • But I hope people will be as well.

  • What are your future goals after YouTube implying there's gonna be in after YouTube.

  • Do you think you two will exist?

  • Let's say I have ah career until I'm 60 or 65.

  • Do you think you two being 30 years?

  • You're still gonna be the biggest platform for video content.

  • It's not impossible, but it doesn't seem that likely.

  • But you two bitches gonna be the top website forever.

  • And if I keep making videos for that long time, I don't know.

  • I don't think it matters.

  • We found on YouTube.

  • We're not on YouTube.

  • I think what matters more is, uh, if I still want to make videos at that point, which I don't know the answer to, where do you see yourself?

  • 20 years late.

  • There are.

  • Okay, here's the question.

  • I don't know.

  • Do you dare anyone know that?

  • I think I just realized who I am as a person, and I am very into the things I like to do right now.

  • I still really like to do YouTube, but I also think I have a lot more to give, which sounds very nave.

  • I just feel it myself that I am capable of more things than on what I'm doing.

  • And sometimes I'm worried that I'm trapped to make the same daily kind of videos and not working on bigger things on.

  • And if I am not sure if that is holding me back or if that's something I should just keep pursuing, why are you talking much about politics in the last month?

  • I don't think I have, Have I?

  • How do you motivate yourself when you don't want to do something?

  • But you have to get it done?

  • Write down a list that's always the best thing.

  • Whenever I think I'm stuck and I know I have things to do and I'm procrastinating.

  • I always ride down a bullet point list of the things that I need to get done today, and that way you can start chipping off the easy bits and then you can get a clear scheduling your head on how you're gonna make that done.

  • Make a video, Make a thumbnail.

  • Brett the video back.

  • Tomorrow's video answer.

  • Emails Workout read, Go home, Oh, practice Japanese.

  • There you go.

  • That's what my day looks like, which youtuber was the most fun to collaborate with.

  • I think I have the most fun when I record with Jack In and Ken because we are actual, genuine friends.

  • Obviously, it's really fun to go outside and collaborate with random people.

  • It's the kind of thing where, as a youtuber your benefited to network, right, you're Bennett.

  • It's beneficial to reach out to people that you wouldn't normally engage with, just as a way to broaden your scope of Brandon and all that.

  • But I find out to be very I don't like networking.

  • I think it's dishonest and try hardy and grows in general.

  • What's your actual networth?

  • You've hinted it being higher than Google says, And what do you do with that money?

  • Do you have invested in stocks or bonds?

  • Could you give us a brief overview What you do with your money right now.

  • It's very mess because I'm set up in Sweden and UK.

  • So I have like four or five companies.

  • I have some invested in stocks and bonds, but I think overall, I don't really spend it on anything personally because I don't like having things around me.

  • I find it very annoying.

  • I think media likes to under evaluate me now after I became more controversial, like in the Forms top list.

  • I know I'm higher than a lot of other YouTubers on that list, but they always seem to put me lower now, and that's why I'm saying like it is bigger.

  • But at the same time, it doesn't matter.

  • Who cares.

  • It's so unimportant.

  • I don't know.

  • I don't know what's important to me.

  • It's not money, it's really I think money for people is like an inch.

  • People want it because they don't know what it's like to experience it, and then you have any you're like.

  • Actually, I feel the same way now when you retire from YouTube, would you consider founding a network something so other YouTubers can reach their dreams like you?

  • Well, surprise.

  • I used to have a network with Disney called Rebel Murder, and that was the idea.

  • I realized that there's so many ways that I can create a company or do all these things, but I don't care.

  • It's boring.

  • I have the dream job right.

  • Making YouTube videos is what I signed up to do because I want to do it.

  • For me to go into other businesses would be a lot of time, commitment and very boring.

  • As I've learned, it's extremely boring compared to YouTube.

  • You have to want it if you want to pursue a business separately and I've already made money, so there's no incentive to be honest.

  • I feel like a lot of times like a hypocrite, because I keep saying I don't care about money, but I'm obviously still generating a lot of money.

  • I'm still selling march.

  • I'm still putting minerals in my videos.

  • I'm still doing sponsors and it's like if I don't care about money, why do I do these things?

  • In a way, it feels like you're validating your work by making money.

  • I know that maybe not makes sense at all.

  • Then again, the way you make YouTube videos and how successful you're channeling is ties ing to how you're making money as well.

  • If your video makes a lot of money, YouTube is going to recommend that video.

  • Maura's well Does that make sense?

  • I hope in 2019 I can start living by my own ideals.

  • More the Islamic sense.

  • What's something you wish you two would change?

  • Anything you'd like to see?

  • Come back, Put me back in.

  • Google preferred YouTube.

  • That reminds me.

  • Actually, I think that's why I got so caught up with the I'm looking.

  • I'm looking at myself now, but I I can understand why I want to make more money because of what happened in 29 2017 2017 when the Wall Street Journal article came out, my show was cancelled.

  • I was kicked out of Google, preferred getting brand ills was so much harder.

  • You know, they don't want to touch me.

  • So I wanted to prove Okay, Well, you know, I don't need to work with big brands.

  • I don't need to be a friendly, friendly brand.

  • Thio make it and to still earn the same living.

  • So I have to be, you know, I wanted to show that I could do that, and that's why I worked myself into that.

  • You know, I got to work with a lot of school opportunities.

  • Still, like Clutch is one of those companies that were actually loyal to me, even though all that stuff happened.

  • And I think that's, uh, that's really cool and other brands as well that I'm really happy I can work with.

  • Yeah, I think it's gotten to a point where it might feel a bit much, isn't it?

  • Why don't you collaborated videos with Mark a Plier anymore?

  • I think our content swayed in different directions.

  • People seem to think there's beef between us that's not at all.

  • It's literally just I think we probably have a mutual respect for each other.

  • But we don't have that kind of relationship where we have to collaborate to maintain anything I don't know.

  • It's like if you don't interact with someone online, that means you hate each other.

  • That's how people perceive it online.

  • The way the audience perceives relationships and how it is in real life is completely different from reality, and I understand that's hard to to understand.

  • Maybe, but it'd be great if people aren't blowing all of it up for no reason.

  • Okay, what were the hardest and best moments of use of career and have you always enjoy the content you make?

  • We'll start with the 1st 1 I think both for those things happened this year.

  • Best moment was obviously the wedding and I got to share that on YouTube.

  • But also some of the hardest happened this year as well.

  • And it's mainly stuff that I've had to sort of dealt with behind the scenes, a lot of things that just becomes more complicated if you dress it online, basically.

  • But that can also be very frustrating because my home, the whole way I've dealt with things on this channel has been I talk about it, I address it and I get support from my audience when I do it.

  • And that's a way for me to deal with a lot of hardship that comes with you two and then transfer have I always enjoy the content I make.

  • It goes up and down.

  • I think in general, when I find myself not enjoying what I make, that's when I tried different things and based on you guys where you guys think of it.

  • I go in different directions and that's the fun of YouTube.

  • I think that's why it's always changing for me, and I'm not doing the same things all the time.

  • How long do you plan on doing YouTube?

  • I've been getting this question so much all the time because yeah, I said I was gonna go on a break and because things have sort of wrapped up for me almost.

  • You know, I got married.

  • I hit 100 million.

  • You know, it would be a good time to just end it on the high.

  • And it's kind of annoying almost how people keep asking like as if as if I should quit.

  • Like when they're you quitting.

  • Are you thinking about that?

  • Maybe you should.

  • I love you, too, and I think I have more to give.

  • I know that's kind of naive to say, but I generally think so, and I Sometimes I question whether you know, if it's possible for me to achieve Maur by the foreman I'm doing now.

  • Since I'm uploading every single day, and if it has longevity in the sense of, I don't really have days off right now.

  • This year has just been extremely busy.

  • It's been the busiest year of my life and I've already had extremely busy years before when I practically broke down.

  • So I hope I can find better balance for me to keep doing YouTube.

  • If every year was like it was this year than no, I would not do it for very long.

  • But what makes you so interested in Japanese culture or Japan in general?

  • It's like people think you're we've just because you like Japan enemy.

  • It's like the least thing that interests me about Japan.

  • Obviously, their culture is so rich and it's so different from the West and I think a lot of their values and way of interacting fits in with me as well.

  • It's hard to just point at one thing and say This is what I like when it's a lot of a lot of different things.

  • Do you still have the same passion for making videos as you had 10 years ago had is reduced or increase?

  • I would say it's pretty much the same.

  • I think there was more excitement because there was so much more growth in the beginning Ah, and you go from from nothing to something big in a time.

  • But in general, I still really like it because I think I'm still pushing myself to do different things.
