Ask HN: What was your best passive income in 2020?

Re:Ask HN: What was your best passive income in 2020? by larrykubin on Saturday December 05, 2020 @02:04PM (#25317288)

I started a niche YouTube channel on Python for Stock and Crypto Trading, very beginner level:

Over $2K/month as of November from a combination of YouTube ad revenue, Buy Me a Coffee donations, and affiliate links (TradingView Pro Subscriptions, Tradier, Amazon books etc).

Should hit 10,000 subscribers in the next couple of weeks. Plan is to grow this to 100,000 subscribers over the next 3-4 years.

How long does it take you to make a video, and how often do you release?

Surprised to see you here. I really enjoyed your videos and they got me back into Python. Thank you.

Just my 2¢: For better results, change the channel name to something relevant to what you are doing and start adding relevant (to the video) information in the video descriptions.

Some people might get a stronger emotional attachment to his channel because his name is unique and personal. Versus just another channel called "CodingStocks" or some bs like that.

What is the revenue split between YouTube ad revenue, donations and affiliate links if I may ask?
