For more than a decade, YouTube has been one of the most popular social networks. However, besides being used for entertainment, there are people who create YouTube videos to make a living. Many Youtubers now call YouTube their main career and can make money off of it, just as one would at a regular job. Dr. Dustyn Williams of OnlineMedED is an example of someone who now makes millions off of making YouTube videos, and has an inspiring story to go along with it.

Dr. Williams received his undergraduate degree at Yale University and then went to medical school at Tulane.

However, regarding medical school, “I found it frustrating. As a medical student, there’s only so much time available with full-time clinic duties on top of learning, eating, etc., yet the school didn’t respect that. Instead, they attempted to teach me everything about everything, which was so much more than I really needed to know as a medical student. If I’m not specializing in obgyn, don’t give me a fellowship expert-level lecture.

It’s an easy concept, but hard to accept in real life.” Therefore, he began to make free YouTube videos, because he believed that there had to be a better way to get across all the information needed to graduate from medical school. The goal was to create better doctors, and surely he did; the YouTube channel has over 36,000 subscribers, and the website now has over 100,000 users from 191 countries.

Dr. Williams also has advice for those who would like to do something similar, and teach people online and gives thes 5 tips. The first is...

“My kids used to watch some English kid playing minecraft and making goofy comments.”

Stampy Longnose ? Probably. He’s the main one.

My son has a YouTube channel (solo kayak/SUP camping trips) with approximately 30000 subscribers. He receives a nice check from YouTube each month to augment his family's income. Apparently after seeing his videos, he received a message from a History Channel casting director to audition for their show Alone. I watched the first season of the show and almost hope he doesn't participate. He states he will definitely go if selected. Yikes!

Not too shabby for playing games and acting goofy.

Have you tried lighting things on fire with a flame thrower? Those videos are sweet!

Living in the burbs, I have to rule out fire.

Bummer really.

I’m generally open to any good ideas though.

The wedding video game is frustrating to me. I’ve rattled off all my production experience and I get blank stares from supposed wedding video pros just for 2nd camera gigs.

I do mostly stock submissions. At least no hassles or games. Once something is approved, anyone can buy.

He knows who he is too. He’s moved on from Minecraft though. There’s series on Amazon and Netflix similar to Stampy and Dan.

The big thing is Fortnite now. Kind of a team oriented cartoon shooter where you have to build as well.

The top of my head was once in a cameo featuring my kitty, in one of Slings’ videos. :P

It appears that this one won’t be back, folks.

Let us bow our heads.

I sometimes make it to firefighting demos and the like.

This has sold once or maybe twice:
