Any Help Now for My Creator Expenses Goes Along Way Later When YouTube Channel ExplodesTimes Have Changed But All The Hard One-Man Shop On Ebay Continues

Good morning, everyone. It is now 623. Today is August 13th, 2025. We're almost through the midsection of August already. Today is Wednesday. Another day. I only got a few more days, three more weeks left for the vegetable standover to the Johnny Cake Center here in Westerly. So I'll get there about 8.30. We went in line and I get all the greens I can for my buddies. Really just get up from them. get the corn though I eat the corn and then the peers of plums bananas those things are for for me but every all the green stuff I get it's my buddy so we'll go there to 830 I believe it only goes till the beginning of September used to go all the way to the end of October I mean the end of September but then they changed it so we're gonna go there later on a little bit so yesterday we worked on some different projects did some videos did a couple of intro videos I wanted to put a new intro video on my eBay, just saying, talking about not having free shipping anymore and free

returns. I'll have to request, I mean, I'll have you have to request a return. And then we also did a nice intro video for my GoFundMe page, which I have had for a while. I haven't done anything with it yet. Basically, what I want it for is for my Google promotions, help pay for my Google promotions because I'm still in in about almost a thousand dollars but it is helping so I'm sure hopefully I'll get a little bit of help plus a little other expenses and then I said as soon as things really take off for Eve at YouTube hopefully they will I would use any money that I made and put it back into my prayers for pounds I also yesterday came up with some new ideas that I

work my buddy Zippy some gaming themed adoption ideas and then I put them on my store spread shirt so you can see those so they come up pretty cool just basic stuff still stickers or you can get a t-shirt or something some different sayings about adopting but are trying to keep it gaming themed we did that yesterday I took I did a couple little videos on the walking my dog a rock seat every day's precious with her because she was really really sick and then all of since she got better so when she's like 12 13 years old so but she still looks pretty healthy but you never know we work on that so we kept we did lots of stuff oh and then the end of the day

came across this discovery crystal aquarium so i did a live feed with that and i just try to set it up fortunately i didn't have the the water correctly because i checked it this morning and it didn't really grow at all so it kind of failed with that because i just tried to Because I don't know, it was made for a kid, and yet they tell you 0.8 quarts of water to add to the goopy stuff. And I just didn't know how that was. They should have put little marks on the empty bottles and said, refill the, redump both of the contents of this bottle into a glass jar, then fill X, you know, one bottle three times again with water.

That would have made sense, but it didn't do that. It just gave me a 0.8 quarts. And then I gave me in the metrics or in the other way. And I was like, I had no idea. So I can't imagine a kid trying to do that. So it was like I might have failed on that. But we emptied out the other cookie stuff this morning. Put water in and it really had to grow.

So, bummer. I just got rocks at the bottom of a water aquarium. All right, let's see what's going on. Pretty much. That's all I got. But it was fun. I was going to sell it. i was going to sell it but it was like really not to work with an event i was like oh that'll be a

fun little youtube thingy so let's do that so we did try to mix it up and come up with different ideas as something comes along i also see some other stuff on ebay that i came across uh some nerf guns i got more nerf guns to list uh old cabbage patch doll and we're going to do other stuff working on that bulk of my eBay store in the next year well we're actually already working out so um we're looking at Etsy nothing new no sales here on Etsy let's go on to Marshmark if I gained any more followers Marshmark let's see what we're at now it's called my closet you go to I have 1,148 It says I'm following 141 people and I have no idea why.

I never clicked on to follow anybody that I know. 326 listings. Sold in right now. No sales. No workers. I know it does work because when I first started, I got one offer. I was like, oh, this is cool. It was a really low offer.

I didn't take it. I thought I was on my way, but not so much. Okay. So RSS feed, do we do? No, we only did the one early morning one yesterday. So let's see what we're at today. I did promote both of my intros. Of course, adding more to my Google promotions, costs.

But I wanted to do those. And I also, what else? I did promote my that long video I did a long podcast that's by far my most listen to podcast through YouTube so we had three downloads yesterday pretty awesome 450 418 in the last 30 days and that's only because of that crazy 351 and I still don't know why that happened like that it was some sort of a fluke Ashburn, seven downloads, Toronto, six, Russia, Moscow, one, Indonesia, one, North Little Rock one. Pretty exciting.

Mostly in the United States, a couple overseas. It's my message in a bottle over the internet ocean, wherever it may go. It's always exciting to see where it pops up next. So try to be consistent definitely each morning, and then we're going to try to bring more stuff in the afternoon one little one today my oh so today yesterday uh I finished updating my meta quest 3 S Xbox edition factory reset it we the only way to do that is you have to hold the power button in the in the in the volume down button as you turn it on and then it gets you to within this you look inside and you can

see the factory reset screen so I did that it was all reboxed I managed to get it all nice packed almost the way it was originally and that's on eBay so that's ready to go but today is my switch two comes in from I got on Best Buy and I got it at the original price and I wanted to get one now because I'm a feeling that I'm really stuck on up prices so I got one so should be in and then we can do a podcast I'll do a podcast while I'm live streaming on YouTube and videoing later on today so we'll do we'll do a trifecta of stuff all at once it's all pretty fine we'll see how it goes all right so

that's pretty much there all right let's go to youtube now we've been growing we did promote those two intros i did the both intros i promoted yesterday not as much like ten dollars per i'm really way over so we're at 66 000 and and 10 subscribers Pretty awesome. End of the day, Crystal set up. I had 211 views. I can't, I really, I've been saying it for a while, but I really can't promote anymore.

I'm so, backed up with costs and promotion. However, the good news on this, because of all the promotions, we're plus 14,777 in the last 28 days. And this month, I think I've done now over $220,000, promotions last night last month I was like almost at three hundred dollars and but the good news is oh it's not great news my estimated revenue is forty two dollars and

thirty four cents so we're going up with buck or two per day which is a little bit more than before I was going up by the pennies but like zero to fifty cents if that or a lot of times times I was going back down so my view hours are two hundred and 68.2 K and then my watched hours are consistently now staying at about 1.2K

which is awesome. Average duration for the 21 views was 5 minutes and 52 seconds. So that's better duration, but that's really just for that video when I was setting up the crystal the end of the day. But it looks like I failed

tonight. So the mixture of water was wrong, I guess. hasn't done anything i i emptied out of goopy stuff like i said put new water in it as it as it's supposed to and then that's it rocks at the bottom of the empty aquarium basically i'll throw some fish in it or something no that would kill them all right so let's um see if you have anybody else i can subscribe to today and if you subscribe to me i'm gonna subscribe to you if i can if i see you you're not hiding from me hide and seek

I wish I could see them all and I wish it was an auto-subscribed button it would really help me out I think putting your name out there to all 66,000 of your subscribers just makes so much more sense but I can't and I bet you're the ones

the only ones I see maybe if there's a few thousand sometimes a lot of people have their thing hidden but like a secret place people want to go to us check out what i got going on that's what it is all the big guys too the big the big channels they're all secretly coming over here checking me out yeah i hope so well it'd be fun if they do i just pump out stuff as i just do me you know i say you just do you wherever that is

and then you just go from there just let it let it do its thing uh it's either going to work or it's not sometimes you got to pay into a little bit pay you way to the top of i'll kind of do that I'm now asking for a little help from my go for me page we'll see if that again again any action on that if not a good deal but I just figured if there is a place on go me where you can create one just for you for creativity but really it's mostly more it's not like I'm going to go out and use that to buy stuff I'm going to use that just to pay overhead for for all my trying to get my videos out more overall so that's really the fun that it's really for

As I thought, I didn't really mention, didn't really make that specific one I was talking about on the intro, but it's kind of what I, that's really where it's going to go. All right, so let's go on to eBay. We only had a couple orders yesterday. Let's see what's going on. Okay, now. Looks like we've got some Tandy 1,000 sales. That's cool. And what, two things for the Tandy 1,000?

Pretty awesome. I got an order. Let's look at the water first. It looks like it's too. Taney 1000 motherboard. Yay. I need to check my orders first before I answer messages because sometimes the messages are part of the order. So I sold my motherboard.

10,000. Those are real expensive to get. So it's a 101,000 EX. To get one, to get one of those full, there's like 300. 150 bucks or so the breakdowns but just to sell us down in parts to at least make my money back the mother boy had to sell for at least $140 but after the discounts was like 130 and then just drives and stuff like that but I think I see another offer here maybe the same that link doesn't work

okay let's see twenty dollars keyboard that's a heck no is it the same guy though I still don't want to do that I mean if it's the same guy it's way too low for a keyboard Yeah, definitely not doing a keyboard for that. So the Taney 1,000 keyboard was really way below a half hacker. It was a half hacking and then some. Chasmid. Oh, yeah. Yeah.

Go. Okay. Yeah. It does. yeah so this is a model link let's do it again okay it should it should This is my YouTube channel. I have a playlist. If you scroll down,

down called. T&1,000. I tested all that. All that. All the ones. All right, so this is my... Oh, so definitely not going to unstack the modem.

So I sold a motherboard. Oh, let's check to see if I got. So I just said that one sale. just a pretty good sales those people today we should be getting in so excellent buyer as a buyer comment so last of my comments are for me being a buyer uh two consuls i haven't heard anything back about the uh something a buyer never a seller never shipped me i always get buyer and sell a confused sorry about that it's just mostly i'm mostly the seller but so many sometimes i'm the buyer and then that's why I get that doesn't get older my brain doesn't work as

good as it used to still pretty good though pretty sure all right so let's see what else we got going on the front just one sale but luckily it was a good amount of sale and we had one comment and I forget let's see what that link is again so trying to see why this guy says the link's not working does work um see if we get that go uh go yeah I just copy and pasted

the link with go and it works fine. It goes right to that video. You have to copy and paste it from the message. You have to copy and paste it from the message.

Yeah, it looks, nice to work. So I have a triple stack. I got listed. I want a lot for it, but it's really hard to find. I had to buy another $10,000 from Europe to get it. And I only, that's the reason I bought that, just because I wanted to check it out. always I check things out and then at some point I start reselling there was a while back where I thought I was going to be a collector of stuff but that

didn't happen as I didn't know collector else I need to pay bills from all the overhead because and as I talk about it put myself through at-home gaming school here in the last seven or eight years not really I'm still actually still learning stuff I'm always going to learn stuff now I have my buddy Zippy I can really learn stuff like into the details but in order to do that, get all the stuff to get stores started. I had to get a lot of inventory, and I used to buy a lot of stuff locally. So my credit went through the roof.

So as we were to say, we're on a debt consolidation program, national debt consolidation. I'm on my last year and a half, and everything's been settled. I'm just paying stuff off, so I need to keep listing stuff where I can. So the point was, is I couldn't collect anything because I needed to keep selling stuff. I got a lot of fun stuff in, and then I had to turn around and we start reselling it all, and breaking down the parts. So now I'm starting to do a lot more vintage computing, which these old stuff really sells. Pretty quick.

It's really hard to find it, and I'm really into buying it. Not anymore, but I was. So it's fun, but it's really expensive to get a whole one, so therefore the parts are going to be also expensive. And then also, I'm also waiting for my switch. to so the switch to coming in comes with mario cart and now i've learned that they've got cheaper inside there is not a cartridge it's marion cart code so i bought i'm going to take the code out which is harder to sell we sell without opening it i think it's in a package but it's just a code inside of it

so they got really cheap there and i bought split faction which is not going to be here today bummer still in Alabama so it's called split faction so it'd be something I would play on switch two so we'll set up switch two today if it comes in it may not come into later I may not do to tomorrow and then I will when this wins when the split faction comes in well we'll check that game out I was surprised there's there's a lot of games already out for uh switch of course only i'm interested in is a new zelda of any kind i don't really want to remake i've got zelda both zelda's on my back of sarah i haven't finished setting up

my computer memory today go through my back of sarah it's pretty cool it's all loaded switch games pretty much all a lot of them um let's see what kind of previews we had for my stuff couple likes some dislikes hard time there's a hard any help I had a couple likes there so 350 I only did like 10 a couple of likes I got lots I get a lots of dislikes too on my videos for whatever reason people just don't like me what I have to say or what I do I don't know what I try to keep it as good and upbeat and creative as possible but at the end of day as we say I just can only do me so it's all i got and i try to keep it as uh roar and real as possible actually that's all

i do that's what i'm all about just throw a thing out throw thing out there as i'm doing them and just see what happened some people enjoy them so people don't all right so i think it's going to be it this one will be a shorter podcast today i'm going to go get my vegetables for my buddy and then we'll see if switch to but i think usually it comes to uPS um and they don't come to late like five, six o'clock tonight. So we'll video some other stuff. I got other things I need to get on to. So we'll go from there.

I'll talk to you later. All right. Bye.
