I find that a lot of content creator money videos talk about income streams, their revenue totals, some maybe even discuss expenses and how much they actually get to take home. But in honour of this $1M milestone, I thought I would share what I do with the money that I make - my long term investing and savings strategy, as well as how I paid off my mortgage, and more, with my YouTube income. As always, I share financial information not to try to brag or whatever, but because I really believe that transparency is so helpful when it comes to learning and developing your own financial strategy. I know that I would have found a video like this so helpful when I was getting started! 🎬 Get my team of editors to edit your YouTube videos! 👉🏻 https://www.creatorlymedia.com 💌 get my weekly newsletter (with Reels trends to try & tips!) https://www.katiesteckly.com/newsletter 🚐 Watch my van life / travel channel    / @katieanddan   📸 Follow me on Instagram!   / katiesteckly   📕 TABLE OF CONTENTS 📕 0:00 1 Million 🎉 0:33 first, a quick thank you 1:35 Calculating Profit 2:30 Grand total... 3:24 Income streams over time 6:48 Where my income comes from now 7:20 changes to Creatorly services 8:00 my best year yet! 8:21 How I stay organized 9:43 Profit Margin 10:33 Where the money went 10:43 Taxes 11:39 Paying Myself 14:29 Business Investing 15:58 Cash on hand 16:52 Personal investments 17:44 Paying off my mortgage 18:07 My lifestyle 18:42 Money lessons I've learned 19:16 Taking baby steps 20:17 Long-term sustainability 22:04 Not burning out 23:03 What to watch next 🔗 LINKS 🔗 *some of these are affiliate links, which means if you make a purchase on the site after clicking these links, I could earn a commission at no extra cost to you. thanks for supporting the channel! 🎧 where I get music for my videos: www.katiesteckly.com/artlist and https://share.epidemicsound.com/6x4f73 📹 Camera Gear: Main camera: https://geni.us/kszve1 Lens: https://geni.us/ks1625 Vlog camera: https://geni.us/kszve10ii Microphone: https://geni.us/djimicmini Tripod: https://geni.us/ksulanzi 👉🏻 See all my gear here: https://katiesteckly.com/gear 👋🏻 ABOUT ME Hey, I'm Katie!
