Description: This video tells the story of how I went from a broke 15 year old with a vision to make some money to earning over $500,000 by the time I turned 21. This video recounts a 6 year journey of successes and failures starting from reselling electronics and ending with a six figure job on the internet with a UA-cam channel and tons of unique side hustles along with it. I hope you guys enjoyed this video.

The new editing style is 🔥
Thank you!
yeah i like the way you input pictures of black people when mentioning people who are sketchy characters and people you guess do crime for fun @@financialwolf
realistically it was probably the first picture that popped up in Google Images though@@d3vaone
Hired an editor.
I've been following your channel for YEARS!
You have no idea how inspiring this is. I've seen you try SO MANY HUSTLES! You've showed such an authentic side of the journey that I have nothing but RESPECT for all the effort you've put into your challenges and goals.
Thank you for sharing your amazing journey! You deserve this milestone and many more. THANK YOU🙌
Dude, that was an epic blast from the past! Seeing all those flash backs from the beginning and remembering them so clearly with just a few hundred subscribers...the time has zoomed by! You've grown so much in video editing, camera confidence, content production...to being more outgoing and just having a get up and go attitude and never resting on your laurels. One thing is certain, you aren't afraid to try something new and fail, and pick back up and try again until you find what works. The pandemic time was perfect timing for you to explore so many avenues. Seriously dude, proud of you! Only way is up baby! 😬👌💪 Huge congratulations brother!
Been watching for around a year, love your videos! strongest mindset out there
Been following since 1000 subs, it’s crazy to see how far you’ve come. You’re the reason I got into phone flipping in the first place. Thanks for everything man
Legend! Appreciate you supporting for so long and keep going!
@@financialwolfbeen watching you grow since 5k
Your doing great bro feel like your the more “down to earth” biahezza keep it up!
Holy cow I can only imagine how many hours you spend editing. Great job hard work pays off
Haha let's put it this way. Video was filmed in one day and editing took like 40 hours
haha that's life you spend 10 hours planning a 1 hour activity. good work in the last years. I can't wait to see ray William Johnson doing a video on you in the next couple of years.@@financialwolf
@@financialwolf can I edit for you?
Amazing video and amazing journey! I want to see you hit your gals this year!!
Keep crushing brother! Love watching you grow over the years.
I’m so glad I found this channel every since I was like 10-12 years old you changed my mindset
bro, congrats, that means you're like, 1/4 of the way to be a millionaire
After taxes and expenses about right. Have about $100,000 in stocks and crypto, maybe $60,000 in home value, and then cash. So getting there!
Can only respect a man on the hustle and grind mentality! Being from Milwaukee and seeing some 1 younger than me get to it is motivating and influencing!! 💯 stay blessed bro 🙏🏾
500k is half not 1/4
@@jaylynnwilsonit is after Uncle Sam takes 250 💀
Isnt it 1/2?😂
Wow man, Im 42 and Im really impressed by what youve done. Big Congrats!!!!
Big inspiration bro! been watching since 2021
Your story is very inspirational. Thank you for everything.
Thanks for watching! Appreciate you
Awesome journey! Reminds me a lot of mine (exact iPhone come up, haha) great work brother!
I also love and appreciate the transparency you have on your channel!!! It means a lot! So many just say random number especially how much they make on UA-cam but you can never trust them because there is no transparency; nothing to prove it.
WATCHING IT FOR THE SECOND TIME,IT FEELS LIKE YOU JUST STARTED TURO
TIME FLIES CRAZY AS HELL
Awesome content! Definitely inspiring to watch and excited to try some of this stuff out to document on my own youtube channel. Thanks for the ideas and the inspiration! Keep hustling bro!
major props!! Coming from tech employee!!
Nice bro, I am currently 17 and this motivated me a lot
Congrats bro. I still remember the good old days of u making videos in ur parents house
hell yah! I remember you too lol!
Thank you for such an inspiring video, man my dream is to become like you 💪
GOod job !!! I like this sound way better.
Glad you like it!
“ I’m not from Compton or the Bronx here kids do that “ 😭😂LMFAOOO
That intro was phenomenal
Bro when I was a kid I used to sell plastic fake bugs on the bus on the way to school (elementary school). You sir are made for this life!
Hahah hell yah
@@financialwolf ;) the ones I used to sell as a kid were called creepy crawly. The way it worked you would pour a substance into a mold and bake it in a small oven that came with the kit! I would then put them in a tiny box and in the bus on the way to school the shop would open 😂😂😂
the legendary story revealed 🤯
Yessir
Wish you all good william.
Always reach for the top! :)
the editing going crazy
Very nice! Kind regards, Sam from the Netherlands
1:25 I have the same feeling
Same thing happened to me in high school, kids made fun of my channel, and now those same kids hit me up asking how they can make money online 😂
You are an inspiration 🔥🔥🔥
Thanks for giving us the how
Congrats wolf. Been here since the selling candy at school vids. My goal is to catch up to you with $ made. Im only around 10% of the way at 19 lol
I've been here since you've been selling candies! I started the same age as you as well in Forex hehe~ and now I work as an intern at JP Morgan! its nice seeing you succeed!
That's amazing bro, I hope you keep up the great content in 2024 as well :D I found my luck in dropshipping, and I am very grateful for it. It's not like I am making millions and millions, but I am very happy with my income since it only demands few work hours over the week. You just need to get good products (which is not always the easiest task, but I use a lot of winnerzila as they provide everything for my store). Last month I had 3500$ profit, and I just started few months ago.
love ur vids
🔥
i think this man is gonna hit 2million subscribers honestly thi year😊😊
I love the quality of the videos!! You have got Soo good!!! (By the way I'm also 21 and have a desire for entrepreneurship!)
Thank you so much!! Hell yah keep grinding my man
Bro you really killing it BIG FAN from South Africa really appreciate the information you have given on this channel keep Going bro
Hell yea dude!
Nice overview. Where is the flipping a 100 phones video?
much love from Kenya
Thank you!!
I’m thinking about starting to do some UA-cam again, but my main issue is I’m having a hard time thinking of stuff, and when I do think of something, if I’m being honest…. I’m kinda scared to actually go ahead and record and edit it. Not that I’m scared on camera, in fact, I love being on camera. It’s more a matter of the fact that I’m scared I will have wasted my time. I’m scared that I will have spent like 2 hours filming, 2-4 hours editing, and then another hour making the thumbnail, just for it to flop.
I’ve even come into contact with someone over the past year who has been a HUGE inspiration for me. This is someone I used to watch on DisneyXD when I was 12 years old, now currently has a YT channel with millions of subscribers, and is an entrepreneur. And yet, I still find it hard to push myself to make a video sometimes, any advice?
And btw, thanks for the content you’ve made over the years. I’ve been a subscriber since around 30k subs if I can remember right, keep it up man! You’re killing it!
gresat viddeo,beem eatching your channel for at least 3 years
I appreciate that!
How much cash do you have leftover?
Been here since 30k subs
The clash of clans referance, love it🤣
I’m new to your channel bro I like your videos an I wanna be just like you 👍🏾👍🏾
Its me again dude this video is so sick im only 13 and have my own business with my friend i hope to be like you. Can you make a video if you have time on more like side hussles that dont involve tech. thanks again
The irs love these kinda videos 😂
Hey william love your videos i think iam your biggest supporter from india 🇮🇳 lots of love india
bro one of my goals this near I to put my product on someone's website and creat a successful website/ businesses 😅
No BS straight forward information, only thing I dont like is the sponsored videos, besides that I can vouch for flipping things from ali express (bascially manual drop shipping) and flipping phones. Its NOT easy, but it is doable. Im nowhere near 500k and im also 19, I wish I started sooner, but im enjoying the process and I know I can become sucessful
At this point you can live off dividend stocks and tbill interest.
THE VIDEO WE ALL KNEW WAS COMING
Heyy man, if doing phone flipping on a small budget.
What would u say is most important: The amount of profit per phone or the speed of selling phones?
Do you edit everything your self? :O
have you tried wholesaling real estate if not why?
You should do a side hustke where you resell tickets.
Its been popping up on my teed and I was curious to know your thoughts.
Wanna collaborate.
Hey,
I stated a business one year ago in the logistic sector. That made half a million dollars in revenue in the first year. But I didn’t earn anything having high costs.
Would be interesting to see how much you profit for each side hustle is. I am super interested 😊
Do you recommend investing in S&P 500 for retirement? Or single stocks? I’m 17
S&P all the way at least 50%
Amazing ❤
God I remember when I started flipping phones because of you but quit after 3 months and 2k in profit
You were born in the right generation. I'm trying to build my own channel. Thought about collaborating with you when you were living in Texas. I live in Florida so the drive wouldn't be that bad but you moved back to Wisconsin. That's too long of a drive for me. I like 4 seasons to. I think I'm the only person in my family that don't like Florida whether.
Does it occur to you that you still haven't gone all in on UA-cam and post infrequently instead of going big?
I spend around 40 hours a week on making videos. The side hustle videos I make take a lot of time since I have to learn about and do the side hustle over a period of time. I think my consistency is pretty similar to a lot the other channels in my niche. Trying to do 1 a week. Posting tomorrow
damn 500k at 21 and im 25 with 20k.. LMAO great job man love the videos
Everyone’s on their own journey! $20K is a solid start my friend! And $500K is not what I have to my name is the $$$ amount in revenue I’ve generated
This is the goat at work
That was so inspiring content. I was wondering if i can do the ID verification with my 16 year old passport on ebay. Is it possible and will i get suspended if i am under 18 years old. Thank you. :D
Hey, I’m 15 and I also sell stuff from AliExpress on eBay. Someone who bought my products reported me because I didn’t register a company… how did you sell on eBay? Did you have a registered company or only with a private account? Thank youu, I love your content. Ps: sorry for my bad English (I’m German 😂)
What editing program do you use?
Final Cut Pro and Apple Motion
Congrats Big Dawg!
Appreciate it
Your dad is the real hero. You should give him half of your money. 😂
100% 😂 hahaha ya but he’s made his own money. He’s a hustler too
Im 18 im out of highschool what would be a good job purely for the money?
you need to get into the stock market, its a great passive investment and also great content
Been here since the selling candy vids lol
What do you think abou fraction mining?
Never heard of it
How do you sell on eBay under 18? Nice video tho
Tbh it wasn’t that strict back then ways around it for sure. Nowadays an older friend, a parents, or an older family member under the account or opening up an LLC based out of Delaware because no age requirement to start one
I'm proud of you❤. But my goal is 1 Million by 20😊
Ain’t no way you signed up for honeygain when you were already making thousands a month😂
I love your videos great story I am 13 and started investing at 8 we should collaborate sometimes
thank you so much!
Finance niche be paying alot of revenue ❤
Yes it does. Especially 2021-2022

without taking in consideration the amount of money you've made over the years, I wonder what made you think (and act) at 16 that you should start making money. Regardless the money you are making, I'd like to see you investing whatever amount of money it takes to pay cash for a 4 year degree at the university of your choice, that would be relevant, paying for education, and I'm sure once you acquire new knowledge you'll be able to grow limitless! I always wish you the best and want you to keep succeding in life! Greetings from Quito.
4 year degrees are the biggest scam ever.
babulka
Are you able to help me with bitcoin 🤔 I have so many questions. This is the teacher in Milwaukee I talked with you last week.
Lobe your videos man , you are going places
5:12 😂😂😂
LOVE YOUR VIDEOS BROTHER
THANK YOU!! I appreciate you too
Can you teach me how to make my UA-cam do that 😂
🔥🔥
🔥
The casual racism here is crazy. Showing pictures of random black people when talking about crime or drugs. ""Im not from Compton, here people randomly do opioids" smh
I love it, man is showing FACTS
go live in your own fairytale world
Yep. I've noticed that in a few of his videos. I hope he realises his mistake soon. Lots of free generic crimes images on pexels. It's not hard to find them.
It's not that deep
Was he gonna use white people when it wasn't a white person he was talking about? Get out of your head and the truth isn't racist
Right! He’s a smart kid, but definitely still a lot to learn.
I met you from Dave koskisco and kish 🤣
I remember when you had like 1000 subs now at 250k is insane bro congrats
We need dark web series
bro just admitted to a crime
where?
Dude stop with showing black people only when you talk about negative things and crime.
Thank you
Dude, the criminal liberal media never talks about any of the large scale black crime in NYC or Chicago or Milwaukee. So be happy the truth is hidden from the masses. I'm sorry to say it is mostly black on black crime. Go do your Al Sharpton "outraged" on the African Americans in those communities.
Make a robolox game or playstore game

You should start an smma challenge 😊
