ELI5: How does "YouTube money" work?
gpt
Yeah. People watch these videos, you -as youtuber- can be allowed to put ads in front of the video. Per 1000 views or something you get like 1-5 dollars. (Google and the Youtuber split the revenue)

So you really need many views to make a decent living from it.
