Hey man - all good points - but let me clarify some things - I use my camera/ gear for part of my job - it's not a bulky canon - but a sweet compact mirrorless a7sii - I use it way more than my cellphone. it goes everywhere with me - I often don't have my cellphone on me actually.

I've got a drone - Mavic pro lol - but the laws in Canada are so fucked up - Plus where I live I cant fly it without running the risk of a huge ticket because of how close i am to airports / confiscation. $1k+ ticket and loss of $1500 drone? no thanks. They dont even have to catch you in the act - you uploading the footage puts you at risk.

To safely fly it I need to travel pretty far / go through a shit load of red tape in terms of clearances / permits. How ever I've got a bunch of footage already - its just a time thing. things that are actually paying me take priority over stuff i do for fun. Clients come first. But ill take your advise and start cutting some stuff together.

In terms of the mortgage/ investing - I just cant justify the spending of funds / investing just yet - priorities - That's all I'm trying to say.

With all due respect - I think your wrong regarding the 200 SP a month bit. Maybe in certain niches that's possible. Post a video every day? If I had the time I would be - My videos take time both to shoot and edit - I'm not about spending 3-5hrs shooting something and another 6 editing it to make $1 or less. This is not my full time gig.

Anywho - the reply was appreciated. I'll buckle down and post more. If my content is what I'm bringing to the table - you're right - I should be bringing more if it.

Best.
E.
