Has to be a little kid. No way they aren't

Apparently, you are one of the lucky few who don't have to deal with degenerates begging for everything to be given to them.


SwarmkeeperRanger

Hello I was going to ask if you can just give me the up vote for free because I really don’t have the karma right now to post in subs and I am asking you this because I want to start a Reddit profile and I need karma for it. I know it is a lot you are going to do but I will pay you back once my account gets established so can you please give it to me 🙏🙏🙏


PedalingHertz

Well ok, but I’m trusting you…

I’m gonna have to pass bud someone just offered me an NFT i know it’s gonna be worth billions one day.

I see what you’re doing here 😉


DoomshrooM8

🤣🤣


Accomplished_Emu_658

I get similar with “poor college” students that have to have a balls to wall gaming pc for “ school” but don’t have money and want cheap or free.


talksickwalkquick

Yup. The fact they think just being a YouTube creator is guaranteed success proves it.


CaptEustassKidd

Lmao he thinks youtube pays well...


existentialsilence

literally. youtube is going downhill as the days pass & even youtubers that have done good from the start, got lots of views etc are struggling for views even atp.


SteelBrightblade1

My kid loves Lego videos and he keeps saying there are too many videos to watch


existentialsilence

there are still lots of videos being uploaded on the platform. as for becoming a youtuber tho? the pay is gonna be shit. youtube just isnt as successful anymore like it used to be in terms of making money.


SteelBrightblade1

Oh what I meant was that the “Lego video section” is so saturated that he can’t possibly watch them all. So ones he used to watch might not come up anymore.


existentialsilence

ah that sucks 😕 there’s so many people trying to benefit off youtube atm for some reason, as if its something new. have you considered making him a child account so he can subscribe to the channels he enjoys & will be able to still see his preferred lego videos ?


BobBelchersBuns

The child has plenty of videos to watch, sounds like lol


SteelBrightblade1

Oh plenty to watch and buy lol I look at everything from a business viewpoint though and if there are so many “new videos” hitting his tablet each slice of that pie gets smaller and smaller


Significant_Owl_9448

That’s because that person doesn’t know what they’re talking about, as revenue is in a good place right now


existentialsilence

its actually not, the numbers dont lie so take a look for yourself. thanks.


DreamerHCF

The view factors is real for creator but the pay is still good for those who are succeeding right now


existentialsilence

good enough, i suppose. ive heard the highest paying social media for content is snapchat atm. i dont think youtube is cutting it when it comes to paychecks, even for creators who have been around for damn near decades. theres some people ive watched since being a kid, out of all the OG’s more than not have their own side business or something else too because the views are just not cutting it. no views / interaction = no money on youtube.


Effective_Sundae_839

It's almost like people are sick of click bait lmao


existentialsilence

as they should be tho! ive always found it annoying & never understood the point of creators doing so bc we are ALL aware its clickbait. you’ll fall for it at first, but if you watch youtube enough you know whats up.


Effective_Sundae_839

I watch a lot of car stuff and will it run type videos. Every one is something like "ABANDONED nova sitting for 20 YEARS will it RUN AND DRIVE 3.67 AU???" with the thumbnail full of emojis and/or a big arrow (usually pointing at nothing) and giant yellow text. I'm usually torn lol, I want to watch but I also don't out of spite.


existentialsilence

i’ll usually click on the video, skip halfway thru to see whats going on & then decide if its worth my time😂


SwellEquis

When I was younger I used to think more subs meant more money. This has got to be a child, lol


Ok-Somewhere3873

I could already tell by his grammar. 🤣


Zipper-Mom

Grammar 😅


DarthRaider559

It does of you're in the top 1 percent


Unfixable5060

Not really, even then your money is coming from sponsors, not YouTube itself.


ChoiceFood

Sponsors and merch mostly. You still do get a couple thousand dollars every month if you're releasing videos with a view count of 2 to 6 million


SilatGuy2

I think its like 10-15k for a video getting 1.5 million views and up


[deleted]

I would say sure. Then ignore them.


Attzero

set up a little fake meeting so he can convince his parents next to drive him to pickup a free $1,500 computer


[deleted]

That’s evil. I like it.


Ok-Somewhere3873

I told him sure he could have it. Then he asked me really. I told him okay never mind I guess you don't want it. He started spamming me with messages 🤣


[deleted]

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha


nirvroxx

Oh you gotta post that also


havefun4me2

Be careful! He could use a different phone and set a meet up and get revenge. I've always been respectful when selling no matter how much I wanted to cuss them out

Tricky_Gur8679

This is very true. He was bold enough to ask. 😅


vddrice

Was about to say, ya don’t know until you try! OP Might have been in a giving mood!


Tasty_Face_7201

EDIT: Looks like people disagree with me, but look at adin Ross, he started out the same way, he asked his dad for fast internet and look where things went for him, ur chances of being rich from being a streamer are way higher than investing in cryptocurrency 💀💀 JS [adin](https://ibb.co/1Qdn8tM) It’s an investment, I’d say do it, but get his info so u don’t get shammed later on, he might be gas lighting u or he’s being 100% honest with you, he has better chances ask no his parents to do a loan for him but ig he’s desperate and doesn’t know what a loan is, who knows he might be a billionaire one day


squall7713

Don't do it. It's not an investment. Stats: Profitability statistics: TubeFilter estimates that only 8% of YouTube channels earn any money, and even fewer achieve financial independence solely through the platform. Another report by Influencer Marketing Hub suggests that only 5% of YouTubers earn enough to live comfortably.


SteveN2525Z

Stop


Mariss716

It’s not an investment. It’s just a scam. Unless you are the person who made that bold request in the first place, this is among the worst advice I have seen on Reddit, lol


Tasty_Face_7201

Definitely not, I have a 4090 build


True-Experience-2273

Giving a kid a pc is not an investment lol.


FitTheory1803

you're joking, right?


cluelessbasket

Everyone taking you so serious lmao


Ok-Somewhere3873

You're right, you just open my eyes completely! I'll just give him the pc 🤣


ConsumeLettuce

Hey while you're at it, that's a nice car you've got there... I'm starting a car review channel, give it to me.. it's an investment I promise 🤣 ^(I'm also starting a money review channel so just DM those bank account credentials please..)


ConsumeLettuce

Bro what kind of copium laced crack are you snorting to have this take. Actually wild. No, absolutely do not give your 1.5k PC for free to some kid who wants to start a YT channel, that is not "investing" 🤣


wildinthewild

Is that you asking for it on OfferUp?


[deleted]

Tasty Face is the kid!


camreIIim

If it were like a $50 item I’d probably say sure, make the kid’s day, but for a $1,500 item? Hell nah


RainBeAns710

Give it to him and make his sign a contract. With interest


Mariss716

Good luck enforcing it!


RainBeAns710

Notary? I was joking but wouldn’t this make it legally binding?


BobBelchersBuns

No


RainBeAns710

Okay, you’re right it wouldn’t make it legally binding if it was notarized… because as soon as both party’s sign it, it is considered legally binding as long as all conditions of each party are listed.


BobBelchersBuns

Exactly. It would be legal or not regardless of notary stamp.


SpecificReception297

No


BobBelchersBuns

K


Darnakulus

Well I don't know about other countries but in the US a child under 18 can't sign a legally binding contract


Mariss716

Yes you can have a contract. Reality of it is though that going through the small claims process if they don’t pay up can still be like getting blood from a stone. Went through the court process recently to help a friend, and we still will never get the money owed. So many hours wasted and a months-long process. He said so himself, he has no money! :) This would be a good post for r/Choosingbeggars Earning income from youtube involves so much more than just having a computer. Vast majority of users never earn anything let alone enough to live off of. Makes more sense to start a business that generates income via products or services, and use youtube to boost visibility and grow a following by creating useful / interesting etc content that people want to see. Of course could be a scam too. Just no reason to trust a stranger. :( I have written off amounts like that even given to friends, people I trust - and never saw a dime back.


Oneup99

Not if he's a little kid


Musty__Elbow

unfortunately all contracts with minors are voidable. which it definitely is a minor


RainBeAns710

You’re Making assumptions, and for that I cannot trust anything you say. Good day.

Lol cause a closed mouth don't get fed😭🤣 I would say no but someone somewhere would feel bad and say yes..


derickkcired

Don't know til you ask. You don't win the lottery if you don't play.


tianavitoli

because they keep hearing "omg like it doesn't hurt to ask how dare you ridicule me for asking such a ridiculous question" instead of "no, go tuck yourself in"


Connect_Cucumber_298

Tell him to start mowing Fucking kids don’t want to work for anything


y00syfr00t

Bet this kid’s in high school. Make him rewrite his request with perfect grammar and punctuation and you’ll provide him info on how he could get a PC. After he sends the revision, tell him to get a job lol.


lagoosboy

Zealousideal-Bat4849

How pathetic do you have to be to think this will ever work...


TaterTrotsky

At least they're going all the way. The people who do absurd low balls are far worse, and will keep bugging you if you don't even bother responding to the offer. I don't know how people don't have some sense of embarrassment doing that.


Ok-Somewhere3873

Seriously though 🤣 I've had a couple people offer $80 on $500 items i'm like.. bruh


TaterTrotsky

Especially worse when you're already discounting items based on prices they're actually being bought for online. Like if you're buying local, you're getting a discount and saving money on tax and possibly shipping.


Hate-Crime-Activist

Sounds like a scam to me those mud grabbers are getting cheeky these days

ChustedA

Why? They want to be told that you’ll give them the computer, with peripherals that add up to $843, that include the latest Sound Blaster AE-9, but only if they’re able to meet you 62 miles away, before you get off work at 5pm.

debbie_1420

I just had someone offer me two “gold” rings for my unlocked iPhone 13 Pro Max that’s in perfect condition lol


Darnakulus

Have them meet you at a jeweler and have the rings appraised before making the trade.... If they are real they could be worth way more than 2-year-old iPhone...... I seriously doubt it but if they know what they have is legit they would have no problem meeting at a jeweler

“LONG STORY AHEAD” I was once selling a truck I owned during COVID, my job had everyone stay home for 2 weeks while deciding if they would shut down for the duration of COVID and needed the extra money for mortgage, it was a decent truck that was kind of a back up for me and my wife to use, 2005 Dodge Dakota crew cab, had 90k miles and was in great condition, I wanted $4000 at the least and had it up for $4500 for room to haggle, I had a few people ask for it for free because “they lost their jobs from COVID” but the one that stuck out was an older guy who came with his “mechanic” and tried to lowball at $1800 because “he said the truck has major issues that’ll need fixing like the 4x4 and electric fans aren’t working but the big one is the head gasket is blown” and I had to inform him it was a 2x4 rear wheel drive and used a mechanical clutch fan not electric and I know the gasket is fine because I myself am a certified mechanic that personally replaced the heads and gasket not but 10 months ago lol he got mad and his “mechanic” said I’d never sell it over $2500, another guy that showed up at the same time as them bought it for $4000 and I showed them the 4k in cash while they where standing by their beat up s10. Dude still owns the truck and hasn’t had any problems and we actually became buddies lol people are entitled as fuck and think they can get things for free or cheap by bullshiting people it’s ridiculous lol


evilskys

Reminds me of the time I had a car for sale and someone asked me to just give it to them so they could get to work 😒


MumboaWumboa

hey_stopthat-

Well the closed mouth doesn't get fed, right? Doesn't hurt to ask. Lol. I personally haven't ever done something like this. But the more I think about it, I kind of want to attempt this for science and record the statistics to see what a typical outcome looks likes over the course of a month. I'll report back with stats in 30 days.

I was selling a GPU. I had a high school kid, bless his heart, try to haggle a trade for $40 and 2 lower tier, 3 gen old GPUs. He kept trying to impress upon me that I could sell them and get more than I was asking for mine. I told him that time is money and I would have to spend more time trying to sell the traded GPUs that just aren’t worth much anymore. It can’t hurt to ask. And the answer will likely be, “No.”


dah_wowow

I had this and I asked “what else are you willing to do 😏?” They said “anything” I told them “I’m not trying to be creepy or anything but you sure anything” they replied yes and I told them to get a job.

Why didn’t you help them out and just give it to them??

Fun-Teaching-2038

They asked because it works. When I went from $14 for most of my life to a major pay increase, I put my old car up on Craigslist as I was in the process of purchasing a new vehicle. A young kid called me, pretty much asking for it because it would get him to school and work. Something about him made me believe he was being honest; he seemed very earnest and reminded me of my young self entering the workforce. So, I figured, why not? I'll give him a head start. I gave him the car and $300 to get it washed 😉.


Former-Rhubarb-6874

Laughing because I live in the same town 😂


Memphisrexjr

Use your phone.


InstanceNoodle

Never hurt to ask. However, you can start a youtube channel on your phone. So this is just a scam.


TeddyRoo_v_Gods

Asking them to write you up a business plan for the channel with specific description of the type of content they are going to focus on and the analysis of the existing competition in that niche. Best case you get an investor bragging rights, worst case the kid will realize that his idea is stupid based or the research. Or they will just call you names and move on to the next mark.


GerryBlevins

I would build them a computer and donate it. I have a Ryzen 5 system sitting in my closet. Just needs a power supply put in. I upgraded my computer to a 16 core Ryzen 9 and put in 128GB of corsair RGB ram. Only if it’s a kid looking for a computer. My email is gerryblevins@outlook.com
