The good YouTubers are following a teaching format, which if done correctly isn't easy. Then you MUST commit to a regular release of interesting content to build viewers, the lifeblood of any channel.
After moving my classes to an online format, I have nothing but the utmost respect for those who can create and sustain content to a point where they actually make money, NOT an easy task.
Think its easy? Open a channel, buy the equipment, learn to use video and sound editing software, learn to use YouTube Enterprise, learn marketing, court sponsors, learn to compete against your competition.
Its 100% a legitimate job.
While I don't disagree with you that it is a lot of work, and perhaps a 100% legitimate job, I have also learned that over the last two years most channels are 90% legitimate garbage, and often presenting incorrect information. I have followed many channels, but it's just not worth going through the garbage to get to something good. It's probably been a year since I regularly watched a channel, and it's down now to maybe watching one video a month and usually quitting it a minute or two in.
It might be true that success always means hard work, but it is also true that hard work does not always mean success. Too many people trying to have a youtube channel that just don't have what it takes. As I said, it's to the point where it's just not worth weeding through the bad to try to find the good.
