    Hi Gilbert, these next 2 months are when you go all in your UA-cam channel. This is your chance to become a full-time UA-camr & you'll never have to go back to work for good. I know you can do it. I wanna see you win. Much love Gil & wish you the best

      He doesn't have enough interesting content or ideas to be a full time UA-camr. I enjoyed some of the 80s/90s videos (which is how I found the channel) and although some held my interest at the start, they became very samey after a while. Unfortunately the 'day to day' vlogs are uninteresting to someone like me, so I no longer watch them. It's basically a guy walking around his house, filming himself and talking about mundane topics... Or him going to various stores and watching his wife and kids spend all his money! If you like that sort of thing, great. But it's not for me and you can't expect him to go full time unless he is able to appeal to more people.

    Congratulations on leaving the 9-5. You have an amazing opportunity with this UA-cam channel as you already have millions of views. You just need to find a way to maximize the channel. Seek out people who have done it already and just do what they did. Once you maximize the channel, you’ll probably kick yourself for not doing it sooner. Good luck!

    Losing your job can feel like a major setback, but it's also an opportunity for growth and self-discovery.
    Take this time to reconnect with yourself and explore new possibilities. Reflect on your strengths, passions, and values.
    It's a good way to take a different perspective on your life.
    Speaking from experience, I've had a varied career spanning three decades, filled with ups and downs.

    I have been living frugally for the past 11 years, only buying things that I need and purchasing used items. I own everything and have no recurring payments. These days, job security is not guaranteed, and anyone can lose their job. If I were to lose my job, I could live for 7 years without earning a penny. I plan to continue living frugally because I am always afraid that I may lose my job one day. I am still young and know that I could find a job quite easily now, but as everyone gets older, it becomes harder to find jobs. The scariest thing that could happen to me would be losing my job. I hope you can find a job soon and not have to worry about your bills.
