    So a cork youtuber has gone and brought a Maserati. Surely they don't get paid that well as a partner of youtube

    What ?

    “And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

    What the hell is that ****e, 25m channel views!?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,617 ✭✭✭ba_barabus


    Can you make a post that clears up exactly what this thread is about


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,073 ✭✭✭✭cena


    What the hell is that ****e, 25m channel views!?

    It IS HARD to see what people see in them vids


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 103 ✭✭Lcstudent2013


    Well by looking at their statistics for that channel they are probably making around $160 a day off YouTube ad revenue and then they may be getting sponsored off companies. I wonder do they have other jobs or just live off YouTube?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,803 ✭✭✭pappyodaniel


    It's people like them that make me the spiteful, hateful person I am today.

    I feel significantly stupider for having watched about 45 seconds of that video.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,803 ✭✭✭pappyodaniel

    Yes and the fact that we've given them 2 more precious views will have stroked his ego all the more.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19,885 ✭✭✭✭MetzgerMeister


    OK, your man sounds as though he's that kid's uncle and that the whole car thing is a cover. Also, I can't make out if she is Irish or American or Amerish.

    Brain cell count is now lower, thanks cena :rolleyes:

    Don't blame them, if he managed to make enough money to buy a Maserati I say fair play to him, blame the system and other people watching this kind of content.
    I don't blame Jedwards, I blame people paying to watch them :o

    They get paid 1$ for 1000 views if I am not mistaken...

    Eh, whatever about the annoyance/enjoyable level you may feel about him, the biggest red flag to me was that he isn't using a camera mount in the car. The view is bopping around as he is driving, so no wonder he is in 2nd in the tunnel, he can't change because of the camera.

    I woke up one Sunday morning a few weeks ago and one of their videos was on my "trending" page on YouTube app.
    Feeling still unable to get out of bed I decided to watch their visit to a B&Q.
    He's an annoying b****x BUT he's an annoying b****x with a very hot moth


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 12,985 ✭✭✭✭dgt

    Oh for f##k sake I should have known it was this set of bell-ends before I watched the vid, looks like I need another decontamination shower. If only there was a way to block certain youtube channels so that you never again have to be exposed to sh1te like this.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,180 ✭✭✭hfallada


    I still use the old YouTube app for iPhone to avoid the ads. And it seriously pisses me off when I see like 5 videos as the most watched thing in Ireland to do. The titles of the videos piss me off so much.

    But the are managed by an la talent agency and get a majority of their views from Americans who like that simple, nothing to gain from watching this video tv

    If you break it all down they are just a young couple starting a family and having a ball of a time doing it. So what if he doesn't fit into your set of parameters for what is an acceptable person.

    Live and let live.

    So....

    I'm lost. Are we outraged that someone bought a Maserati? Jelly? Happy?

    Does it matter that they are a youtube content provider?

    I'm going to go with jelly. Bastard. Wish I could afford one.

    Here are his stats, hope he's paying his taxes on the income :)

    http://http://socialblade.com/youtube/user/LeFloofTV

    $60 - $556 /day EST
    $21.7K - $202.8K /yr EST

    However I don't think I'd pimp out my family like that, but that's just me. Everyone to their own.

    True. I have no problem with them doing what they do, and fair play if they can make a few quid in the process. I'm just irked that I watched some of it when it was dragged into a motoring forum. :pac:

    Yeah, this doesn't belong here.
