Machinima boys.

Lol £123 but yea, you've posted 1 video and you're expecting an income on 7k a year from doing this? You need to post a hell of a lot of videos every single week too earn that sort of income and I'm pretty sure after a while of doing this "job" you'll hit a point where they'll start to take taxes on it.

Dont really mind, more money than your making playing a game.
Put it this way
£123 x 2 = £246 (I submit 2 videos a week - Takes 1 week for them to put it up)
£246 x 4 = £984
£984 x 12 = £11,808
£11,808 x 0.175 (Tax) = £2066.40
£11,808 - £2066.40 = £9741.60 - Leaves me with just over £9000, that is assuming all my videos get 90,000 views. Most Call of Duty videos get 60,000 views for sure on Machinima as long as they have commentary.

I dunno but he's a legend.

It's always good to do something that you enjoy and get paid for it


Btw Paul, income tax isn't 17.5, that's vat and soon to be 18 I thought

Because games are for fun, I don't want to make playing games into a job because then it wont be fun.

Also good luck with that, hope it goes how you want it too.

I suppose if you spent longer a day you could actually maybe earn a crap wage job, but still i think its decent for a 15 and a 16 year olds pay to be fair. although my parents still woulnt call it a job and i suppose id be the first to be taxed considering there both tax inspectors aha. Never the less good job both of you's, i prob will get a PVR or what ever there called after christmas considering i have so many games now lolol. just wont be able to stream online gameplay

The only difference is I am recording when I am playing. I am enjoying myself playing games. Why not make a bit of money out of something I enjoy.

I guess, well enjoy yourself then, I can't be assed to argue because it's pointless really.

[GoldenMerc]

I think after a while you'l get bored of mw2 and im guessing thats the only game your contracted for ?

[PaulMacC]

I am allowed to post anything on their channel. Right now MW2 is getting the most views and Im having fun playing it.

[GoldenMerc]

Oh right, thats pretty good to be fair.

It's incredibly sad that people watch these videos, but if he's making money without putting in any effort, why not? It isn't a job and no one could live off it, but he's a kid earning nice cash for doing jack****, so I don't see the problem.
