aw, that is so kind. But I really just have no interest in doing sponsored videos. I don't think there is anything wrong with them at all, it's just not for me. And as long as I can meet that $400 every month with the videos and affiliate links, then I really am happy. But that you for that kind comment.
@@Melissa55 I know you don't want to do sponsored videos per say but can you attach ads? Even if you do not want/need the income. You could do it for your grandbabies as I know they mean the world to you.
Wow, doing a cost benefit analysis, it’s a lot of time and work for very little return. I think it’s more a labour of love, personal enjoyment that keeps you doing this ❤️
I remember I found your page 5 years ago when I was 25. I was looking to get into skincare and kept finding younger influencers talking like they knew everything. I found your page and starting using retin-a because of you . I’m 30 now and I think I look younger than I did 5 years ago because of you ❤ your videos
First of all, THANK YOU for being so open and sharing what you make doing TH-cam Videos after 10 years!!!! I am really surprised!!!!! I thought you would be making around 40k after 10 years. I am curious as to Why you don’t do affiliate, links, and or sponsorships? Again, just curious. Maybe you could explain to us newbies, why you choose not to do that? Thank you! Well, I am a first time watcher, so I just subscribed to your channel! Hope that helps a tiny Bit!!! 💖 Thx Melissa!!!
Thanks for your honesty sister!! Ppl always say...I'm gonna tell ya how much I make and then they bable for 25 minutes and never say anything...you were consise and to the point..ty!❤❤❤
Thank you! I think people thought we were all rich and rolling in it and making all this money per video. So I just decided to show my payment page! I really appreciate it so much. Love, Melissa
Less than I thought given all the prep time and cost of buying products, clothes, etc to review. Would have to really enjoy it to be worthwhile. Great job!
Thank you for being candid… and for not trying to sell products or taking lots of freebies to review. Once a channel starts receiving products or money for their reviews, I become skeptical. I just don’t think that people can do honest reviews when there’s money on the line. I’ve always felt that when you talk about anything, it’s your honest, heartfelt opinion. Hoping your channel keeps growing for another 10 years!
That is so sweet! Thank you! I kind of just don't ever want to feel any kind of obligation and have the freedom to make videos that I want and not feel pressured to ever have to do videos. And I'm not unhappy with what I make. If I wanted to make more money I could go get another job. This is something I enjoy doing so I don't mind the pay too much. Anyhoo thank you and love you! And did your change your name????
@@Melissa55 I have no idea why my name has changed. When I set TH-cam up a decade or so ago, I chose “alamochiliqueen” as the channel name (I thought I might post recipes, but never did). Then I used my name “Nola A” to display when I commented. Well… a few weeks ago I was fiddling around, updating my profile. When I got finished, my channel name was displaying next to my comments. I haven’t a clue what I did.
Most TH-camrs with this # of subscribers will make significantly more money than this! We’re talking thousands of dollars per month! The only reason she’s not is because she doesn’t do sponsorships or collaborations! It’s her choice, but she’s definitely undermining all the work she puts into the channel and missing out on significant income! Very rare, and I’m sure she has her reasons, but I guess there are a few people in the world who are not money motivated😃
@wanderwoman3976: yeah I had to go check her subscriber count, views, and engagement. I don’t understand. But, maybe she doesn’t include a lot of ads because even without collabs, I heard another content creator say that she made 20k in a month. She has 500k subscribers, but 20k vs 400 sound like a such a disparity, no???
People come on TH-cam as creators most of times solely with an objective for earning quick big bucks with little value in terms of content and over here you have been churning wonderful & helpful content years after years continuously for a decade and despite such relentless efforts being paid so less , this is evident how much passionate you are about what you do irrespective of the meagre incentive.Immense Respect for the OG passionate true creator.
Oh thank you. I am often really surprised when people tell me how much they think TH-camrs get paid. It’s really not very much actually unless you just get tons and tons and tons of views per video. I know some people make a lot of money but the average person just doesn’t. I sure appreciate it
I think it’s higher than I thought , but for a stay at home young mom with kids it would be a good hobby with some income. But lately I’m seeing a lot of utubers with a large following, building new homes, furnishing them with high end furniture so I’m thinking they are making more. I wonder how they do it.
I have seen several people share this now. Some make much more, some less. Even those who have been on the same time. But I will say a video sharing what you make will probably be one of your highest paying videos!
Thank you for being honest and open about this. It is less than I would expect for someone with that number of subscribers, especially given the amount of time it takes to put together a video, upload it, etc., etc., etc. Anyway, I really do enjoy watching your videos.
My first time seeing you or watching your video. I was hooked by the title. Thank you so much for sharing this information. You seem like a very nice lady. It's wayyy less than I thought someone with 10 years and over 100k followers. God gas blessed your grand kids with you. I'm glad you're enjoying the TH-cam journey. Take care😊
Thanks for sharing, I've always known that you don't do TH-cam just for the big bucks! You are one of the most genuine women on TH-cam and that's why we love you. How wonderful that you've committed to helping your grandchildren financially. What a great Grandma you are to them ✨
Thank you for doing this video. I'm always curious about what people make but I know it's a rude question to ask. Definitely lower than I thought. Your grandchildren are so lucky to have you, Melissa!
That is so kind. I think people think that the average person makes a lot of money doing TH-cam videos. It just isn’t true. You have to have thousands and thousands of views to make money and the average person just doesn’t do it. So I hope this is helpful for people to realize that we really don’t make as much money as people think we do. So thank you.
Melissa some very popular TH-camrs that I like and many of us watch, over time seem to now be commercials. I constantly feel like I’m being told to buy, buy and buy. I don’t feel that way with you, but I do wish you made more. You deserve it.
You and your channel are amazing. It’s a shame that your earnings are so little - you deserve more - even if it is fun at times. We thank you for sacrificing your time. ❤
Never really thought about what one makes. A lot of time you put in and not a lot of money, but it makes you happy and we all enjoy your the videos. I learn about makeup etc. Thank you soo much.
I had no idea what TH-camrs make. Thank you for explaining how it works for you. I know you have always resisted doing sponsored videos and while that is admirable, it wouldn't offend me at all if you did some sponsorships. I'm sure many companies would love to have you as a representative. I want for you to make some decent money doing TH-cam so you won't become discouraged and quit. And you deserve it with the time you put in on your videos. I've been a subscriber for years; I'm always happy to see a post from you and I watch every video. Whether you're showing makeup, hair, fashion, cooking, home stuff or family activities, I like it all. Keep 'em coming and thank you.
Thank you so much Belynda! I just don't have any interest in doing sponsored videos. I don't think there is anything wrong with them at all and anyone that I watched that does sponsored videos I know they wouldn't do them if they didn't believe in the product. I won't become discouraged!!! But thank you for wanting me to make more money. Honestly, I'm not unhappy with what I make. If I can keep it to around $400 per month, then I am good to go. I could make a lot more money say taking in paralegal work, but I'm just not interested. So I appreciate it!
Less but you don’t have sponsors that would give you more money. I appreciate that your videos are real and I don’t have to fast forward through a sponsored promotion. You are amazing.
That was very interesting. The info that you had given. And very thoughtful of you to share your earnings! good luck in the future on your channel. I do enjoy watching it.
Thank you for your honesty!!! Also, I’m so sorry you had a rough time for a while- I can tell it’s still very raw! Hoping every day is a little better Melissa!!♥️
Thank you Lisa. You know family problems can really just get you down can’t they ? And I think what we finally have to realize is we just can’t control everybody. So thank you for that and I have done a lot of praying in the past few months let me tell you. Lol. I appreciate it.
@@Melissa55I can relate to what you said. I think it’s harder on us women, I know I worry about everyone in our family and no matter what I try to do it just is never enough. It would be nice if I could turn my brain off and say I don’t want any drama in my life, I’m too old, soon to be 70 but I can’t. I just do lots of praying like you. Bless you
You are one of the most real TH-cam channels I follow. It’s refreshing and uplifting to see your videos and hope you can keep us in your life. I appreciate your time and find value and joy in your videos. Thank you
You deserve more, Melissa. You are *not* typical, from what I see. So many get piles of PR ~ & that truly should be counted as income, in my view, with the prices of skincare &/or makeup ~ & so many do sponsored/*partner* content. More power to them; I just click off because I don't care to be 'sold' anything. I watch videos, leave a thumbs-up & often a comment, & I often follow links, so I *do* support channels. I just don't watch ads. Blessings! Jackie in upstate NY
Skincare and makeup sure is expensive isn't it? And truly I'm not unhappy about what I make. I buy products to show and Doug doesn't mind because like I said he smokes cigars, so that evens out. As long as I can make that $400 consistently every month, or around that, then I'm good to go. I have often thought I could take in like paralegal work to do at home, and I think I could make pretty good money, but I just am not interested at this point in my life. I'm pretty happy with the way my channel has gone and what I make. Thank you my sweet! Love and thank you so deeply for your kindness and support. Love, Melissa
@@Melissa55 I expected it to do more; there are people who have a new video every day so I don't know how that effects the payday; there is someone who was a newscaster in our area that quit her job that now has a podcast as well as weekly video; she has 2M million viewers so I'm sure that helps; however since then she is endorsing products which gets old so I don't watch like I use to; good luck on your videos.
@@houston5568TH-camrs did pretty well during the pandemic . People stayed at home and filled there day watching TH-cam . I noticed some large families with 9-11 kids share part of their life. The newest one is buying properties. Raising animals and trying to grow their own vegetables and showing their grocery halls . Showing us how little you can live on by making thinks from scratch. Owning many cars and RV’s. But they don’t reveal how much they pay on property taxes,car and house insurance and so many other cost of having a big family and still can go on holidays . I know what I need to live on . We are living frugally since we are pensioners and have no debts. But everything cost so much more just to maintain a clean live style. So they must make a lot of money because there pumping out many videos per week
This is the first video of yours that I’ve seen. It came up as I was scanning through you tube. I would love to see what your channel is like so I’m subscribing😊. As far as what you get paid, I honestly thought it was more. Thank you for you honesty ☺️
Lower than I though. You are so delightful to watch. I have stopped watching so many this past year, because it felt like a long comercial. You keep it real. Thank you.
Oh gosh, I'm so glad I'm not the only one who goes back and redoes videos because of my hair, the lighting, etc. Love you Melissa - another TN girl here from Chattanooga! Though now living in UK also. x
I'm glad you shared this, not because I wondered how much you make but because I've been thinking of having a channel myself and curious about this. I guess I thought you might make more, but that might be because I'm used to seeing you and think you are a person of high value. I never tire of your sincerity and authenticity and really enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing xo
That's so honest, I wish more you tubers were as honest. I live that your videos don't show adverts every few minutes like some do, I guess the more adverts the more you can make that's why some are full of then. Keep doing your videos we love them xxx
Thank you, Ann. Yes, I think you get paid possibly for the ads and I think the number of views and how long someone watches. I think they take all that into consideration. Thank you!
Hello, Melissa. You are a true blessing. I am 57 and you inspire me so much. Honestly I was a bit shocked at the amount you earn. I did expect it to be much higher. Your are worthy of such. Hope you continue to make videos, your honesty is much appreciated. Thanks for what you do!!!
Think people are cheeky asking what you get paid. None of our business but it is lovely of you to share . It is only fair and right you get paid for all your hard work but it’s not enough in my opinion. X
Thanks for sharing this information, Melissa. The payment is much lower than I expected it to be, especially considering the amount of effort that goes into it. I hope you won’t stop though, because I love and appreciate your videos. I’ve learned a lot from you. Thank you! XO
That is so very kind of you to say and I appreciate it. I’ve always said as long as I continue to enjoy it I’ll keep doing it. But this means a lot to me so thank you.
You would be surprised the things people feel free to ask and especially what they feel free to say to you. It blows my mind! lol. And I thank you so much.
Hi Melissa! To answer your question… I thought TH-camrs must make a good amount or they wouldn’t do it full-time… but I’ve never really thought about an actual amount or heard about what any people make. I’ve followed you since you started, but now that I work 5 days a week instead of three 12hr shifts, I just don’t have time to keep up with all I used to follow. 😊 I really enjoy you and your content though, and trust your opinions, so you’re the only one I make the time to follow now. Your content has benefitted me and now my daughter, so I’m happy you’re doing it because you enjoy it.
You are just so sweet Melissa! I’ve never made a lot compared to my husband. I have my own little checking account too! It’s very special to me to be able to manage my own money. To give my grandson and children little things and donate to causes, even though it’s a small portion. It’s not about the amount it’s about how God provides just what we need at the moment along with a great dose of happiness and contentment. I haven’t watched your videos in a while but I think I’ll start watching them regularly again because I feel a real sense of connection with you and the content you share. Thank you for sharing 🥰!!!
I can’t believe you make so little when some people here do nothing but apply way too much makeup and hawk some crap PR they were sent.You’re the real deal ❤️😘
HA HA I CAUGHT YOU talking about me LOL I'm just kidding you know that...shocking isn't it? I think people think we make soooooo much more than we do. You have to be a pretty big channel and taking sponsorships to rake in the dough!
@@GlitzyFritzy It’s sad that some of these young ones make so much money and they aren’t honest which I dislike immensely. You, Melissa and MaryEllen are very honest . You deserve to make more money 💕
@@catmama54 Well said. I also love Angie Hot & Flashy. There is one lady who did a really good job promoting fashion ideas, but the last few years she has taken on a team? Thats right, a "team" Like seriously? This is fashion we are talking about, so off-putting I had to stop following her, she was so much better when she was on her own. Also, forget Hollywood s t r i k e, I think Y ou Tube needs to give higher wages. Melissa, you definitely deserve more. Your content is brilliant and well thought out 💯💞
@@annieirish2229 i absolutely love Angie I’ve been watching her for years but lately she pushes so much product especially all the anti aging gadgets they are so over priced I realize she make money off them but I tired of it and it’s not just her ! That why I love Melissa so much!
aw, thanks, Sharon. I am good with what I make. I basically wanted people to think we are getting really rich to realize what we really make. Some people think we make thousands and thousands per video. But I sure appreciate it!
Hi Melissa, Thanks so much for doing this. It is very useful info for those thinking about creating a channel. We are very lucky to have your delightful channel - it's very helpful & I love you to pieces!
Oh thank you. I really want people to realize that the average person doesn’t get rich. Some do but it’s rare and I think they are so disappointed when it doesn’t happen. I appreciate this
If you were paid based on how much joy you bring into our lives… you could retire wealthy. I am so thankful for your videos and the work you put into them.❤❤
Like you, I didn't know you could make money doing videos and it wasn't until I had been doing youtube for 2 years before I got monetized. Thank you for being so candid, Melissa. Knowledge is power and I really appreciate it!!
I have to say Melissa, I have cut down on my list of beauty influencers in these past 3 years. I think I’ve been watching you about 6 years, but you….by far, have given me the most informative content. Especially skincare and fashion. And if you ask me, I think you are absolutely under paid from what I get out of your videos. Thank you I appreciate you and your sweet personality. Btw, you look so good in that color! Your eyes pop! Love you❤
Wow, that's a lot less than I thought. Thanks so much for sharing and for all the hard work you do for us. Those Grands are very blessed to have you and Doug for Grandparents. Much Love!
You’re refreshing! And kind! I figured payment was based on number of subscribers, but never ventured a guess at how much it was. I’m just glad you do it!
Thank you! I think it might be based on number of views. And also I think watch time per video might come into play although I am less sure about that. anyway thank you Laura. Much love, Melissa
I love your transparency and willingness to share how much you make on youtube. It was a lot lower than I had expected considering how many subscribers you have. I have learned so much from you and LOVE your channel ❤️❤️❤️
At the end of the day, (I should probably say, the work day)… you’re working pretty hard to make sure you keep your promise to help your grandchildren, that’s about as selfless of an act I know of. I’m not one bit surprised though Melissa, you DO deserve more, somehow I have always felt your channel was heads above the sea of channels here. Thank you for being here these wonderful 10 years, showing up for those of us waiting on the next post. We (I), love you dearly! 🩷☺️🩷⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Oh girl, thank you. I'm not selfless. I just love those babies to death and want them to have opportunities and the best education they can. And I appreciate such a beautiful comment. Honestly though, I am not unhappy about what I make. I can meet this obligation and sometimes have a bit left over, so I'm really good to go. Thank you and love you!!!
You are truly amazing. To share your earnings is something no one ever does. You are as honest as the day is long. May I ask, do you have to pay taxes on it? You work so hard and diligently. In my eyes, they don't pay you enough. You are generous, open, and honest. And unlike 99% of TH-camrs you don't even accept PR, which is your choice, but you deserve PR, in my eyes. You are a rare gem. I love watching you, and you have become one of my dearest friends. I just love you. ❤️ ❤️💖
Thank you, Rene!!! Doug and I have someone do our taxes and at the end of the year I get my earnings from Magic Links, Amazon and TH-cam and we give them to him. But I don't keep up with what I spend or anything to deduct. I think it's not enough that the IRS don't look at it much to be honest. But I do always turn it in to and we pay something on it I guess. lol. I'm sooo not an income tax person. lol. Love you!!!
This is the most honest and sincere explanation of TH-cam earnings from our favorite girl Sweet Melissa. You deserve more than that just for being so many’s favorite TH-camr. I for one watch you every night and you are a true mentor. As a woman, wife, daughter, friend etc. Love you to the moon and back ❤
There are plenty of TH-camrs that share their earnings. TH-camrs with a lot less subscribers than Melissa make thousands monthly. She doesn’t make more because she chooses not to. Very misleading the way she is presenting the topic to make people who are clearly uninformed think that you don’t make money on YT. It’s her choice that she doesn’t make money!! As long as she treats it like a hobby and not a business she will never make significant income. HER CHOICE!
Hi Melissa, i just found you. You popped up on my stream. You are lovely, and I would have thought after 10 years you'd be making more money. I'm wishing you continued success, and lots and lots of new subscribers too. I enjoyed watching this my first video on your channel and getting to know you. Best regards.❤❤❤
Oh thank you. That is kind. but I really am happy with what I make and have no complaints. I am able to pay the obligation I have and sometimes have a bit left over! But I sure thank you! Love ya! Melissa
Thank you so much for your openness and honesty. My guess for a TH-camr with your tenure/experience was $2k/month. So less than what I thought. However, your joy in sharing with others is so evident! Thank you for continuing to do this. The help you have extended to your followers is immeasurable!!
Hi Melissa, I think what you make is very little and your input into my life huge. I felt so sad to hear you’ve been struggling, and big hug to you.. Please know you are my holy grail of skincare and I am delighted with your guidance an input, which I follow exactly. Your an amazingly beautiful person, inside and out and the perfect inspiration. I’m 61 this year and believe your guidance has improved my skin significantly, I look better now in my 60’s, than I did 10 years ago. I send you my love and gratitude. Carie 🥰🌺🤗
Thank you so very much for this comment. I am so grateful. It was an issue with my relative, but I finally had to realize I couldn't heal them completely it had to come from within. Things are better with them now, so I am grateful for that. I thank you, Carie. Sending you much love this week. 💚💚💚
I personally thought you tubers made significantly more - especially with a channel your size... You do a great job Melissa ! Happy you enjoy what you dedicate your time too :) We certainly enjoy watching you !
I really thought it would be more because the amount of videos you do and how popular you are as a you tuber! You are worth a lot more, but I also think it’s a fun hobby and a service you’re giving to all of us who love your content! You’re also a You tube celebrity so that makes it worth it!! Thanks for all you do for all of us we appreciate it! ❤❤❤
It's less than I thought, but that may be a testament to your honesty! I've never felt you were trying to sell me anything, which makes your videos such a pleasure to watch. I hope you're over the worst of your worries 😊
Thank you, Margaret. I do think the family member is doing better but I also had to realize my being depressed didn't help them any either. So I sure appreciate it!
Hi Melissa thanks for sharing. It's encouraging. My daughter has been on TH-cam for 3 years and makes about what you make but she does one video daily. She was being depressed about it but she's now encouraged to keep on doing what she loves and grateful for what she gets like you. So thank you for your transparency ❤
Thank you for being so candid Melisa. It’s wonderful we love what we do , and hopefully the end results some compensation. Your videos are always enjoyable:) xx
Well, thank you for that. I still enjoy it, so I’m just gonna keep on making videos until I don’t. And then I guess I’ll just hang up the camera. Lol. Many thanks.
I just love how honest you are Melissa! BTW- YOU LOOK FABULOUS in that GREEN SHIRT! You deserve alot more money cause it costs money to buy these products you show. But, spoiling the Grandkids is always acceptable too! I miss the Southern Accent on YT. Not many have that beautiful accent you have! Look forward to more videos soon!
You are such a sweetheart! Thank you for sharing , what you make on TH-cam. It’s really none of our business. I’ve always enjoyed your videos and helpful and informative. I started watching when you talked about broccoli sprouts! Thank you & bless you.
I really appreciate you sharing something so personal. I feel you deserve much more. I’ve been watching you from almost the beginning and have enjoyed every video you’ve posted. I appreciate everything you’ve shared with us and you definitely are a favorite of mine. Thank you for being here. ❤
I am so grateful to you and thank you for the years that I have known you. Sometimes it's hard to believe I've been on here as long as I have. It for sure has passed quickly. Thank you!!!! Love Melissa
I was a little surprised at how low the figure was but I don't know really how it works. It does give you some personal money and I do agree you should have your own bank account. My husband and I have a "household" joint account but we each have our own personal accounts too. Thank you for being as open as you are about it. Have a great upcoming week!
I think it is based on number of views and length of watching time. And you know, that personal money really makes a difference to me. It makes me feel like I contribute. . I really appreciate you a lot. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing - always wonder what TH-cam pays content creators - lot less then I thought. You deserve way more, but not everything is about money, how much money. Your videos inspire folks to take the best care of themselves as they can - that is true empowerment. Continued success and great health!
Thank you! I think it's the number of views instead of followers. I have been on here so long that most people that are subscribed to me don't even realize they are I think. I really don't get many views over all. And I think it's views that matter instead of number of subscribers. I thank you!!!
Omg I watched you for years. I'm amazed I thought you'd make thousands a month. Wow im stunned. We are lucky you even bother. Much love xxx
When you said you're benefitting your grandchildren I subscribed.
We love you Melissa. If more ads or sponsorships on things you like will help...Do it. You deserve it. You have put in the time girl.
I second this! It doesn't hurt us, but it does help YOU ♥- go for it Melissa!
aw, that is so kind. But I really just have no interest in doing sponsored videos. I don't think there is anything wrong with them at all, it's just not for me. And as long as I can meet that $400 every month with the videos and affiliate links, then I really am happy. But that you for that kind comment.
@@BlessedChristmasMemories&⁰]
@@Melissa55 I know you don't want to do sponsored videos per say but can you attach ads? Even if you do not want/need the income. You could do it for your grandbabies as I know they mean the world to you.
@@YakMommiyes, she has the ability to attach ads, that’s part of being a TH-cam.
Wow, doing a cost benefit analysis, it’s a lot of time and work for very little return. I think it’s more a labour of love, personal enjoyment that keeps you doing this ❤️
I remember I found your page 5 years ago when I was 25. I was looking to get into skincare and kept finding younger influencers talking like they knew everything. I found your page and starting using retin-a because of you . I’m 30 now and I think I look younger than I did 5 years ago because of you
❤ your videos
You should try Mary Kay products, great skin care and retinol products and boosters
It’s a ton lower than I thought. Way under paid !!
For all Melissa teaches us I’m disappointed. She deserves far more. If she took sponsorships, I would completely understand
It also depends on how many subscribers they have and how many videos they actually post.
@@SewWhittlevery true I know of this woman that makes over $20k a month…….she have 3 million subscribers
If she posted several times a week and had many more subscribers, she would make more.
First of all, THANK YOU for being so open and sharing what you make doing TH-cam Videos after 10 years!!!!
I am really surprised!!!!! I thought you would be making around 40k after 10 years. I am curious as to Why you don’t do affiliate, links, and or sponsorships? Again, just curious.
Maybe you could explain to us newbies, why you choose not to do that? Thank you!
Well, I am a first time watcher, so I just subscribed to your channel! Hope that helps a tiny Bit!!! 💖
Thx Melissa!!!
Thanks for your honesty sister!! Ppl always say...I'm gonna tell ya how much I make and then they bable for 25 minutes and never say anything...you were consise and to the point..ty!❤❤❤
You’re the first person to honestly tell us this info 😊
Thank you! I think people thought we were all rich and rolling in it and making all this money per video. So I just decided to show my payment page! I really appreciate it so much. Love, Melissa
Less than I thought given all the prep time and cost of buying products, clothes, etc to review. Would have to really enjoy it to be worthwhile. Great job!
Thank you for being candid… and for not trying to sell products or taking lots of freebies to review. Once a channel starts receiving products or money for their reviews, I become skeptical. I just don’t think that people can do honest reviews when there’s money on the line. I’ve always felt that when you talk about anything, it’s your honest, heartfelt opinion.

That is so sweet! Thank you! I kind of just don't ever want to feel any kind of obligation and have the freedom to make videos that I want and not feel pressured to ever have to do videos. And I'm not unhappy with what I make. If I wanted to make more money I could go get another job. This is something I enjoy doing so I don't mind the pay too much. Anyhoo thank you and love you!

Most TH-camrs with this # of subscribers will make significantly more money than this! We’re talking thousands of dollars per month!

Very rare, and I’m sure she has her reasons, but I guess there are a few people in the world who are not money motivated😃
@wanderwoman3976: yeah I had to go check her subscriber count, views, and engagement. I don’t understand. But, maybe she doesn’t include a lot of ads because even without collabs, I heard another content creator say that she made 20k in a month. She has 500k subscribers, but 20k vs 400 sound like a such a disparity, no???
Ooos to be clear the other creator makes 20k without collabs.
Very candid video filled with great information. Thank you Melissa. ❤❤❤❤
People come on TH-cam as creators most of times solely with an objective for earning quick big bucks with little value in terms of content and over here you have been churning wonderful & helpful content years after years continuously for a decade and despite such relentless efforts being paid so less , this is evident how much passionate you are about what you do irrespective of the meagre incentive.Immense Respect for the OG passionate true creator.
Oh thank you. I am often really surprised when people tell me how much they think TH-camrs get paid. It’s really not very much actually unless you just get tons and tons and tons of views per video. I know some people make a lot of money but the average person just doesn’t. I sure appreciate it
I think it’s higher than I thought , but for a stay at home young mom with kids it would be a good hobby with some income. But lately I’m seeing a lot of utubers with a large following, building new homes, furnishing them with high end furniture so I’m thinking they are making more. I wonder how they do it.
@@Melissa55 You are doing a fab job your videos are a treat & I truly hope it always brings you joy and contentment
Thanks for the honest review. Sometimes it seems like people are saying they are super rich by producing content.
I have seen several people share this now. Some make much more, some less. Even those who have been on the same time. But I will say a video sharing what you make will probably be one of your highest paying videos!
Thank you. I think it's more considering it depends on what you put into it. Especially since you enjoy what you do. ❤
Thank you for being honest and open about this. It is less than I would expect for someone with that number of subscribers, especially given the amount of time it takes to put together a video, upload it, etc., etc., etc. Anyway, I really do enjoy watching your videos.
Thank you!! I think people think that TH-cam pays all this high priced money but they really don't. I sure appreciate it!
My first time seeing you or watching your video. I was hooked by the title. Thank you so much for sharing this information. You seem like a very nice lady. It's wayyy less than I thought someone with 10 years and over 100k followers. God gas blessed your grand kids with you. I'm glad you're enjoying the TH-cam journey. Take care😊
Thanks for sharing, I've always known that you don't do TH-cam just for the big bucks! You are one of the most genuine women on TH-cam and that's why we love you. How wonderful that you've committed to helping your grandchildren financially. What a great Grandma you are to them ✨
Honestly, that is much less than I expected. I appreciate your candor, thank you.
Thank you for doing this video. I'm always curious about what people make but I know it's a rude question to ask. Definitely lower than I thought. Your grandchildren are so lucky to have you, Melissa!
That is so kind. I think people think that the average person makes a lot of money doing TH-cam videos. It just isn’t true. You have to have thousands and thousands of views to make money and the average person just doesn’t do it. So I hope this is helpful for people to realize that we really don’t make as much money as people think we do. So thank you.
Melissa is precious and I’m thankful that she does videos. I enjoy all her videos. 🎀🎀
@@Debra_Barron Me too!
Me 3 love that southern accent ❤
Melissa some very popular TH-camrs that I like and many of us watch, over time seem to now be commercials. I constantly feel like I’m being told to buy, buy and buy. I don’t feel that way with you, but I do wish you made more. You deserve it.
You and your channel are amazing. It’s a shame that your earnings are so little - you deserve more - even if it is fun at times. We thank you for sacrificing your time. ❤
Oh thank you. Believe me I’m amazed and am grateful I make as much as I do. I am really so grateful and blessed. Thank you!
Never really thought about what one makes. A lot of time you put in and not a lot of money, but it makes you happy and we all enjoy your the videos. I learn about makeup etc. Thank you soo much.
I had no idea what TH-camrs make. Thank you for explaining how it works for you. I know you have always resisted doing sponsored videos and while that is admirable, it wouldn't offend me at all if you did some sponsorships. I'm sure many companies would love to have you as a representative. I want for you to make some decent money doing TH-cam so you won't become discouraged and quit. And you deserve it with the time you put in on your videos. I've been a subscriber for years; I'm always happy to see a post from you and I watch every video. Whether you're showing makeup, hair, fashion, cooking, home stuff or family activities, I like it all. Keep 'em coming and thank you.
Thank you so much Belynda! I just don't have any interest in doing sponsored videos. I don't think there is anything wrong with them at all and anyone that I watched that does sponsored videos I know they wouldn't do them if they didn't believe in the product. I won't become discouraged!!! But thank you for wanting me to make more money. Honestly, I'm not unhappy with what I make. If I can keep it to around $400 per month, then I am good to go. I could make a lot more money say taking in paralegal work, but I'm just not interested. So I appreciate it!
Less but you don’t have sponsors that would give you more money. I appreciate that your videos are real and I don’t have to fast forward through a sponsored promotion. You are amazing.
That was very interesting. The info that you had given. And very thoughtful of you to share your earnings! good luck in the future on your channel. I do enjoy watching it.
I love watching you, you are so thorough in explaining how you do things & have really helped me!
Thank you for your honesty!!! Also, I’m so sorry you had a rough time for a while- I can tell it’s still very raw! Hoping every day is a little better Melissa!!♥️
Thank you Lisa. You know family problems can really just get you down can’t they ? And I think what we finally have to realize is we just can’t control everybody. So thank you for that and I have done a lot of praying in the past few months let me tell you. Lol. I appreciate it.
@@Melissa55I can relate to what you said. I think it’s harder on us women, I know I worry about everyone in our family and no matter what I try to do it just is never enough. It would be nice if I could turn my brain off and say I don’t want any drama in my life, I’m too old, soon to be 70 but I can’t. I just do lots of praying like you. Bless you
You are one of the most real TH-cam channels I follow. It’s refreshing and uplifting to see your videos and hope you can keep us in your life. I appreciate your time and find value and joy in your videos. Thank you
Thanks for making this video. It’s lower than I expected, you deserve to be paid more I think!😊
Oh thank you. I think if people realize the reality of the average person not making all that much they won’t feel disappointed. So thank you.
I honestly thought it was more, but thank you for sharing. I now know it's a lot of work!
You deserve more, Melissa. You are *not* typical, from what I see. So many get piles of PR ~ & that truly should be counted as income, in my view, with the prices of skincare &/or makeup ~ & so many do sponsored/*partner* content. More power to them; I just click off because I don't care to be 'sold' anything. I watch videos, leave a thumbs-up & often a comment, & I often follow links, so I *do* support channels. I just don't watch ads. Blessings! Jackie in upstate NY
Skincare and makeup sure is expensive isn't it? And truly I'm not unhappy about what I make. I buy products to show and Doug doesn't mind because like I said he smokes cigars, so that evens out. As long as I can make that $400 consistently every month, or around that, then I'm good to go. I have often thought I could take in like paralegal work to do at home, and I think I could make pretty good money, but I just am not interested at this point in my life. I'm pretty happy with the way my channel has gone and what I make. Thank you my sweet! Love and thank you so deeply for your kindness and support. Love, Melissa
@@Melissa55 I expected it to do more; there are people who have a new video every day so I don't know how that effects the payday; there is someone who was a newscaster in our area that quit her job that now has a podcast as well as weekly video; she has 2M million viewers so I'm sure that helps; however since then she is endorsing products which gets old so I don't watch like I use to; good luck on your videos.
@@houston5568same here, I think I know who your talking about, DS
@@houston5568TH-camrs did pretty well during the pandemic . People stayed at home and filled there day watching TH-cam .
I noticed some large families with 9-11 kids share part of their life. The newest one is buying properties. Raising animals and trying to grow their own vegetables and showing their grocery halls . Showing us how little you can live on by making thinks from scratch.
Owning many cars and RV’s. But they don’t reveal how much they pay on property taxes,car and house insurance and so many other cost of having a big family and still can go on holidays .
I know what I need to live on . We are living frugally since we are pensioners and have no debts.
But everything cost so much more just to maintain a clean live style.
So they must make a lot of money because there pumping out many videos per week
This is the first video of yours that I’ve seen. It came up as I was scanning through you tube. I would love to see what your channel is like so I’m subscribing😊. As far as what you get paid, I honestly thought it was more. Thank you for you honesty ☺️
It’s lower than I thought. I think you deserve more for your hard work and great video’s!
Thank you so much, Dana! You are very kind.
I’m so surprised you make so little. I love your videos cause you are real and honest.❤
Lower than I though. You are so delightful to watch. I have stopped watching so many this past year, because it felt like a long comercial. You keep it real. Thank you.
This is lower than I expected. I enjoy watching you. Thank you for sharing this information.
It’s lower than I thought . Thank you for the videos , I really enjoy them and you are such an inspiration . Sending love 💕
It’s definitely more work than I thought it was. Less money than expected. I’m glad you enjoy it.
🎉🎉it was actually less than I thought. I thank you for doing them. They are always fun!!
Oh gosh, I'm so glad I'm not the only one who goes back and redoes videos because of my hair, the lighting, etc. Love you Melissa - another TN girl here from Chattanooga! Though now living in UK also. x
I'm glad you shared this, not because I wondered how much you make but because I've been thinking of having a channel myself and curious about this. I guess I thought you might make more, but that might be because I'm used to seeing you and think you are a person of high value. I never tire of your sincerity and authenticity and really enjoy your videos. Thank you for sharing xo
You are the most beautiful lady on YT, inside and out. I appreciate your integrity and honesty.
Thank you Melissa. You are so transparent. Love this with you. You look amazing in green and with your green eyeshadow. Love your earings !
That is so very kind. Thank you.
That's so honest, I wish more you tubers were as honest. I live that your videos don't show adverts every few minutes like some do, I guess the more adverts the more you can make that's why some are full of then. Keep doing your videos we love them xxx
Thank you, Ann. Yes, I think you get paid possibly for the ads and I think the number of views and how long someone watches. I think they take all that into consideration. Thank you!
Hello, Melissa. You are a true blessing. I am 57 and you inspire me so much. Honestly I was a bit shocked at the amount you earn. I did expect it to be much higher. Your are worthy of such. Hope you continue to make videos, your honesty is much appreciated. Thanks for what you do!!!
This is the first time I’ve seen you or your channel…you seem so genuine and absolutely beautiful inside and out! I hope you continue to grow!!!
Your eye makeup and shirt and earrings all look so pretty together :)
My goodness! You don’t look pass 50!! Thank you for sharing. All the best to you 💜💐
You are so beautiful and real Melissa. I love your channel and just the person you are.
Think people are cheeky asking what you get paid. None of our business but it is lovely of you to share .
It is only fair and right you get paid for all your hard work but it’s not enough in my opinion. X
You are such a treat to watch. Glad for your honesty.
Oh that is kind! Thank you!
I think you' so, so honest, Melissa! Thank you for that!
Thanks for sharing this information, Melissa. The payment is much lower than I expected it to be, especially considering the amount of effort that goes into it. I hope you won’t stop though, because I love and appreciate your videos. I’ve learned a lot from you. Thank you! XO
That is so very kind of you to say and I appreciate it. I’ve always said as long as I continue to enjoy it I’ll keep doing it. But this means a lot to me so thank you.
She’s missing out on thousands of dollars per month , but it’s her choice because she chooses not to do sponsorships!
Your candour is refreshing and admirable.❤Just stumbled on your channel; I'm thankful I did.
That is a lot lower than I thought! I see many influencers on TH-cam that seem to have so much money to burn on luxuary items.
Thank you for all the hours you put in. Your videos bring me joy.
I would never ask someone how much they make.
You would be surprised the things people feel free to ask and especially what they feel free to say to you. It blows my mind! lol. And I thank you so much.
Thank you for sharing. Honestly I thought TH-cam paid more for all the hours you have to put in to make a great video. Thanks again for sharing.
Hi Melissa! To answer your question… I thought TH-camrs must make a good amount or they wouldn’t do it full-time… but I’ve never really thought about an actual amount or heard about what any people make. I’ve followed you since you started, but now that I work 5 days a week instead of three 12hr shifts, I just don’t have time to keep up with all I used to follow. 😊 I really enjoy you and your content though, and trust your opinions, so you’re the only one I make the time to follow now. Your content has benefitted me and now my daughter, so I’m happy you’re doing it because you enjoy it.
Thank you for your candor. As a "finely aged" TH-camr I love to hear honest results from others!
You are just so sweet Melissa! I’ve never made a lot compared to my husband. I have my own little checking account too! It’s very special to me to be able to manage my own money. To give my grandson and children little things and donate to causes, even though it’s a small portion. It’s not about the amount it’s about how God provides just what we need at the moment along with a great dose of happiness and contentment. I haven’t watched your videos in a while but I think I’ll start watching them regularly again because I feel a real sense of connection with you and the content you share. Thank you for sharing 🥰!!!
I love how your videos are real and passionate, and not filtered. Life is messy, rooms are messy and we never look terrific every day.
Always look forward and enjoy your videos and how genuine you come across to your audience. 😊
I can’t believe you make so little when some people here do nothing but apply way too much makeup and hawk some crap PR they were sent.You’re the real deal ❤️😘
HA HA I CAUGHT YOU talking about me LOL I'm just kidding you know that...shocking isn't it? I think people think we make soooooo much more than we do. You have to be a pretty big channel and taking sponsorships to rake in the dough!
@@GlitzyFritzy It’s sad that some of these young ones make so much money and they aren’t honest which I dislike immensely. You, Melissa and MaryEllen are very honest . You deserve to make more money 💕
@@catmama54 Well said. I also love Angie Hot & Flashy. There is one lady who did a really good job promoting fashion ideas, but the last few years she has taken on a team? Thats right, a "team" Like seriously? This is fashion we are talking about, so off-putting I had to stop following her, she was so much better when she was on her own. Also, forget Hollywood s t r i k e, I think Y ou Tube needs to give higher wages. Melissa, you definitely deserve more. Your content is brilliant and well thought out 💯💞
@@annieirish2229 i absolutely love Angie I’ve been watching her for years but lately she pushes so much product especially all the anti aging gadgets they are so over priced I realize she make money off them but I tired of it and it’s not just her ! That why I love Melissa so much!
@@annieirish2229 👍
You just gained a new follower :) I’m heading to 50 and finally starting my channel after only song Lives for several years
Thanks for your transparency! Your reviews are honest & I always use your affiliate links no questions asked. 😊
Oh that is so kind of you. Thank you so much.
Hi Melissa, I think the amount is lower than you deserve. Thank you for sacrificing your time to put out such wonderful videos!
aw, thanks, Sharon. I am good with what I make. I basically wanted people to think we are getting really rich to realize what we really make. Some people think we make thousands and thousands per video. But I sure appreciate it!
Hi Melissa, Thanks so much for doing this. It is very useful info for those thinking about creating a channel. We are very lucky to have your delightful channel - it's very helpful & I love you to pieces!
Oh thank you. I really want people to realize that the average person doesn’t get rich. Some do but it’s rare and I think they are so disappointed when it doesn’t happen. I appreciate this
If you were paid based on how much joy you bring into our lives… you could retire wealthy. I am so thankful for your videos and the work you put into them.❤❤
Like you, I didn't know you could make money doing videos and it wasn't until I had been doing youtube for 2 years before I got monetized. Thank you for being so candid, Melissa. Knowledge is power and I really appreciate it!!
Oh sweetie, thank you for the heads up on your channel!!! I just subscribed. You are wonderful. Thank you!
@@Melissa55 Oh, thank you, i really appreciate that!
Thanks for sharing! Way way way less than I thought. I’m now so much more appreciative of all you do as it truly is not about the $$$.
I have to say Melissa, I have cut down on my list of beauty influencers in these past 3 years. I think I’ve been watching you about 6 years, but you….by far, have given me the most informative content. Especially skincare and fashion. And if you ask me, I think you are absolutely under paid from what I get out of your videos. Thank you I appreciate you and your sweet personality. Btw, you look so good in that color! Your eyes pop! Love you❤
Wow, that's a lot less than I thought. Thanks so much for sharing and for all the hard work you do for us. Those Grands are very blessed to have you and Doug for Grandparents. Much Love!
You’re refreshing! And kind! I figured payment was based on number of subscribers, but never ventured a guess at how much it was. I’m just glad you do it!
Thank you! I think it might be based on number of views. And also I think watch time per video might come into play although I am less sure about that. anyway thank you Laura. Much love, Melissa
I love your transparency and willingness to share how much you make on youtube. It was a lot lower than I had expected considering how many subscribers you have. I have learned so much from you and LOVE your channel ❤️❤️❤️
At the end of the day, (I should probably say, the work day)… you’re working pretty hard to make sure you keep your promise to help your grandchildren, that’s about as selfless of an act I know of. I’m not one bit surprised though
Melissa, you DO deserve more, somehow I have always felt your channel was heads above the sea of channels here. Thank you for being here these wonderful 10 years, showing up for those of us waiting on the next post. We (I), love you dearly! 🩷☺️🩷⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Oh girl, thank you. I'm not selfless. I just love those babies to death and want them to have opportunities and the best education they can. And I appreciate such a beautiful comment. Honestly though, I am not unhappy about what I make. I can meet this obligation and sometimes have a bit left over, so I'm really good to go. Thank you and love you!!!
@@Melissa55 ❤️☺️👌🙏🏻❤️
@@cindybrown1356hi 👋
This was so interesting. I've always wondered. I thought it would be more. Thank you for sharing this with us.
You are truly amazing. To share your earnings is something no one ever does. You are as honest as the day is long. May I ask, do you have to pay taxes on it? You work so hard and diligently. In my eyes, they don't pay you enough. You are generous, open, and honest. And unlike 99% of TH-camrs you don't even accept PR, which is your choice, but you deserve PR, in my eyes.
You are a rare gem.
I love watching you, and you have become one of my dearest friends. I just love you. ❤️ ❤️💖
Thank you, Rene!!! Doug and I have someone do our taxes and at the end of the year I get my earnings from Magic Links, Amazon and TH-cam and we give them to him. But I don't keep up with what I spend or anything to deduct. I think it's not enough that the IRS don't look at it much to be honest. But I do always turn it in to and we pay something on it I guess. lol. I'm sooo not an income tax person. lol. Love you!!!
@Melissa55 well, I think you should be able to keep everything!!! ❤️❤️
This is the most honest and sincere explanation of TH-cam earnings from our favorite girl Sweet Melissa. You deserve more than that just for being so many’s favorite TH-camr. I for one watch you every night and you are a true mentor. As a woman, wife, daughter, friend etc. Love you to the moon and back ❤
There are plenty of TH-camrs that share their earnings. TH-camrs with a lot less subscribers than Melissa make thousands monthly. She doesn’t make more because she chooses not to. Very misleading the way she is presenting the topic to make people who are clearly uninformed think that you don’t make money on YT. It’s her choice that she doesn’t make money!! As long as she treats it like a hobby and not a business she will never make significant income. HER CHOICE!
Hi Melissa, i just found you. You popped up on my stream. You are lovely, and I would have thought after 10 years you'd be making more money. I'm wishing you continued success, and lots and lots of new subscribers too. I enjoyed watching this my first video on your channel and getting to know you. Best regards.❤❤❤
Melissa, thank you for making this video. You are so loved and appreciated!! You deserve so much more for all your hard work. ❤
Oh thank you. That is kind. but I really am happy with what I make and have no complaints. I am able to pay the obligation I have and sometimes have a bit left over! But I sure thank you! Love ya! Melissa
Thank you so much for your openness and honesty. My guess for a TH-camr with your tenure/experience was $2k/month. So less than what I thought. However, your joy in sharing with others is so evident! Thank you for continuing to do this. The help you have extended to your followers is immeasurable!!
Hi Melissa, I think what you make is very little and your input into my life huge. I felt so sad to hear you’ve been struggling, and big hug to you.. Please know you are my holy grail of skincare and I am delighted with your guidance an input, which I follow exactly. Your an amazingly beautiful person, inside and out and the perfect inspiration. I’m 61 this year and believe your guidance has improved my skin significantly, I look better now in my 60’s, than I did 10 years ago. I send you my love and gratitude. Carie 🥰🌺🤗
Thank you so very much for this comment. I am so grateful. It was an issue with my relative, but I finally had to realize I couldn't heal them completely it had to come from within. Things are better with them now, so I am grateful for that. I thank you, Carie. Sending you much love this week. 💚💚💚
Oh my gosh, you look so beautiful! Your eyes look so green with that gorgeous green top! Thanks for sharing!❤
I personally thought you tubers made significantly more - especially with a channel your size... You do a great job Melissa ! Happy you enjoy what you dedicate your time too :) We certainly enjoy watching you !
I really thought it would be more because the amount of videos you do and how popular you are as a you tuber! You are worth a lot more, but I also think it’s a fun hobby and a service you’re giving to all of us who love your content! You’re also a
You tube celebrity so that makes it worth it!!
Thanks for all you do for all of us we appreciate it! ❤❤❤
It's less than I thought, but that may be a testament to your honesty! I've never felt you were trying to sell me anything, which makes your videos such a pleasure to watch. I hope you're over the worst of your worries 😊
Thank you, Margaret. I do think the family member is doing better but I also had to realize my being depressed didn't help them any either. So I sure appreciate it!
Hi Melissa thanks for sharing. It's encouraging. My daughter has been on TH-cam for 3 years and makes about what you make but she does one video daily. She was being depressed about it but she's now encouraged to keep on doing what she loves and grateful for what she gets like you. So thank you for your transparency ❤
Thank you for being so candid Melisa.
It’s wonderful we love what we do , and hopefully the end results some compensation.
Your videos are always enjoyable:) xx
Well, thank you for that. I still enjoy it, so I’m just gonna keep on making videos until I don’t. And then I guess I’ll just hang up the camera. Lol. Many thanks.
I just love how honest you are Melissa! BTW- YOU LOOK FABULOUS in that GREEN SHIRT! You deserve alot more money cause it costs money to buy these products you show. But, spoiling the Grandkids is always acceptable too! I miss the Southern Accent on YT. Not many have that beautiful accent you have! Look forward to more videos soon!
With all the work that goes into doing a video I'm shocked you don't make more!!😮 I love your channel❤
That is so kind. Thank you!
You are such a sweetheart! Thank you for sharing , what you make on TH-cam. It’s really none of our business. I’ve always enjoyed your videos and helpful and informative. I started watching when you talked about broccoli sprouts! Thank you & bless you.
I really appreciate you sharing something so personal. I feel you deserve much more. I’ve been watching you from almost the beginning and have enjoyed every video you’ve posted. I appreciate everything you’ve shared with us and you definitely are a favorite of mine. Thank you for being here. ❤
I am so grateful to you and thank you for the years that I have known you. Sometimes it's hard to believe I've been on here as long as I have. It for sure has passed quickly. Thank you!!!! Love Melissa
So so so much lower than I imagined! Dang girl! Thank you! This is a labor of love.
I was a little surprised at how low the figure was but I don't know really how it works. It does give you some personal money and I do agree you should have your own bank account. My husband and I have a "household" joint account but we each have our own personal accounts too. Thank you for being as open as you are about it. Have a great upcoming week!
I think it is based on number of views and length of watching time. And you know, that personal money really makes a difference to me. It makes me feel like I contribute. . I really appreciate you a lot. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing - always wonder what TH-cam pays content creators - lot less then I thought. You deserve way more, but not everything is about money, how much money. Your videos inspire folks to take the best care of themselves as they can - that is true empowerment. Continued success and great health!
That is a much lower paycheck than I expected…especially with 137K followers?!? We love you, Melissa!!!
Thank you! I think it's the number of views instead of followers. I have been on here so long that most people that are subscribed to me don't even realize they are I think. I really don't get many views over all. And I think it's views that matter instead of number of subscribers. I thank you!!!
Thanks for your honesty! I thought it would be more for as many subscribers as you have.
Thank you for all you do Melissa. You are providing us with a truly amazing service - for very little money! ❤️
Oh thank you! Believe me, I am the one that is blessed. Any money I make has just been icing on the cake!
Thanks for sharing. The money is a lot less than I expected. I’m surprised so many people create channels for such a small return.
