Seriously thinking about monetizing myself on youtube.

Current Events

I 've been laid off since 2023 - job transferred to wfh during covid, and since i'm a hermit who was immune compromised from MS treatment, lost my last motivation to leave the house. Combine that with fugal living, and I've been debt free, and just enjoying the fruits of my labor since then. It's not a brag - can't recommend this to anyone. I just thrived in isolation on the spectrum.

Always been a video editor, spending sleepless nights making stuff for AMV Hell, so my skills have gotten to a point where I see it as a viable option. You guys have praised my stuff in the past, but don't want to turn a passion into something i despise inadvertently, you know? Still remember how that animal crossing love story video burned me out, but that was emotionally draining on me too.

My channel doesn't need to earn much right now having another source of income. So, is it a trial setting this up, and dealing with the taxes, and shit in the U.S.? Can i get some advice from full/part time content creators here if possible?
