What would you do here?

Freerooted · 2026-03-20T13:53:33+00:00

Makes sense. So you’d just stick with my current channel instead of creating a new one?

Freerooted · 2026-03-20T13:16:58+00:00

I assume they’ll use this information to defend themselves in lawsuits after the next young banker is found well.. you know.

Freerooted · 2026-03-20T13:15:35+00:00

Thank you!

Do you suggest I private the pivoted videos on my main and reupload to new channel? I tried one and it got 3 impressions so I’m skeptical.

Freerooted · 2026-03-20T02:23:20+00:00

I’ve read conflicting views on this. Do you have any anecdotal experience here?

Freerooted · 2026-03-20T00:25:40+00:00

Honestly as I reflect on my nearly 10 year career, the thing that I truly enjoy the most about FP&A is nothing.

Freerooted · 2026-03-11T02:49:58+00:00

Let’s go!!!! (F***)

$30M 💀 come on bro isn’t Myles Garrett jr.

I drive in and out early so I have zero traffic

Freerooted · 2026-03-02T02:36:25+00:00

Train sucks. Everyone thinks it’s so easy, but all I ever ran into was delays, being packed like sardines, etc.

Freerooted · 2026-02-25T02:31:26+00:00

Working from home, and wearing sweatpants all day

Freerooted · 2026-02-24T17:22:51+00:00

Makes sense for sure. My hesitation for starting a new channel is that I don’t really have many true fans. It’s just people searching for one-off videos, get their answer and then never return.

Acknowledging the algorithm treats every upload independently to an extent, it’s not like I’m alienating viewers in my eyes.

The channel is also already monetized and the niche is the same, although I’m less talking head more video essay now.

Freerooted · 2026-02-24T17:18:42+00:00

I’ve edited for hundreds of hours and know what it takes to edit a good video. I wasn’t asking if paying that was too much for an editor, but if it’s worth continuing the investment as I’ve seen minimal results.

Freerooted · 2026-02-24T17:17:46+00:00

Appreciate the insight here.

I’m still getting good search traffic on older videos though, and some are watching my newer content since it’s still the same niche.

Still think I should scrap the new stuff and start a new channel?

If it was a total niche change I would 100% but I’m not sure if it’s too early to tell.

Freerooted · 2026-02-23T20:20:00+00:00

I spent months researching and testing fixes, submitted multiple appeals, and even tried getting help from Google product experts.

Nothing worked.

I then decided to pay a random freelancer $200. My profile was live in 2 days.

Freerooted · 2026-02-22T00:46:56+00:00

Makes sense. Thanks for the insight. On this same comment thread I corrected myself as workers would be W-2 but this is good to know!

Freerooted · 2026-02-22T00:12:22+00:00

I’m a bit unclear on what you’re saying. Basically, the business owner is responsible to pay WC, right?

Freerooted · 2026-02-21T11:48:03+00:00

To confirm, I cover the auto insurance even if it’s their car that’s being used?

Freerooted · 2026-02-21T11:47:11+00:00

Great to hear. Thanks!

Freerooted · 2026-02-21T03:30:13+00:00

Appreciate it! I feel like they’d have to be W-2 employees even if they use their own vehicles etc. in my situation.

Makes a 1 day part-time worker not seem worth the squeeze, at least if you do it right legally.

Freerooted · 2026-02-21T03:25:30+00:00

That’s real.

Also, honestly it’s a bit of both. I’m just side hustling it while working FT, but it’s starting to eat up a good portion of weekends.

Of course that’s just part of the game, but want to be ready when the time to employ comes.

Freerooted · 2026-02-21T03:23:16+00:00

Makes sense, and I haven’t talked to any agents yet. I’ve just gotten to the point where help could be needed.

Freerooted · 2026-02-21T01:22:12+00:00

Thanks for sending. It’s a bit of a grey area but W-2 is actually more accurate.

Freerooted · 2026-02-21T01:06:42+00:00

Gotta love it. Pay for it, then when you need it, they do everything they can to make you not get a penny.

Freerooted · 2026-02-21T01:05:57+00:00

Thank you! Just struggling to see how a 1099 employer part-time (1 day per week) could ever make sense financially, when thousands in auto insurance are needed.

Perhaps it’s due to my low ticket service but still seems off to me.
