Are there any kind Anon's here who would be willing to fund my Youtube channel?

The money would go toward a gaming PC (I've shopped around and found one at a VERY reasonable price, good spec too!) I know this sounds like I just want to mess around sitting on my ass playing PC games all day but I genuinely have a plan made when it comes to this.

I'm well spoken (British) calm, friendly and funny, I want to set up a cross between a Let's play and a simple strategy guide style channel (using my knowledge of various games to help people get better) along with real life videos of me completing various challenges (stay the night in a haunted house etc) aswell as hosting a few twitch streams to help generate subscribers.

I also have access to a closed beta of a new game that's coming out (I can't discuss details here for obvious reasons)

I'm asking for $3000 this will cover the full cost of the PC, mic and webcam.

Please email me if you would like to know more, I can also add you on steam if this gets off the ground so we can chat and discuss ideas.

Jesus Christ fuck off you autist.

You aren't getting any money from anyone on this board; fuck off to /g/ or somewhere. There are numerous reasons why you are a bad investment:
1. You could just cut and run.
2. Your YouTube idea is shit, it is such a saturated market you won't make money. You know what? I'm calm, well spoken (raised in the wealthier part of Chelsea) and (durr) British. Anyone can do what you want to do.
3. The fact that you just expect someone to give you £2k reeks of laziness, are you even working to contribute to the price?
4. Wealthy people don't spend their money on shit which probably won't make them anything back. I personally have £8k just sitting there right now. Am I investing in you? No. I'm investing in a local brewer because I know a certain wholesaler is looking at his product (and have a friend in the selection process whom says they'll jump for it). Guaranteed return on my money.
5. You haven't even put up anymore videos. If I wanted this type of money online I would work my arse off to make a good demo happen. I would visit one of my friends and borrow their computer and play a shit game. I'm sure they wouldn't mind if I brought them some beer. Now if you say you don't have any friends then that is a sixth reason not to invest; because it means you are antisocial and don't work well with other people.

And don't just act further autistic and call this argument a strawman. You posting this every fucking day is a perfect example of autistic behaviour. You are a cancer on this board and while I thought you were funny at first, you really need to stop posting.

>again, this is a trust issue, I've already said that I can pay it back it just might take a few months to be able to
You should never 'trust' anyone online. Also the key here is 'a few months'. Making a hit youtube channel takes a long time, you don't get millions of subs in a few months. Just look at Cr1ti1kal, he is the funniest and most talented guy on youtube and he doesn't get that many views.

>trust me I've studied this field passively for going on 5 years, I think I know more than you at this point.
Yes, I've watched youtube videos for 5 years as well. That is all you are saying afterall. Studying 'passively' isn't studying at all.

>granted it might be, but that's why I have ideas for videos that could potentially net me millions of views
The key word here is 'potentially'. Why would anyone invest in this gear for you when in two months you could go 'oh sorry mane its not working out, I only have 300 subs. thanks for the computer tho'. Ideas that have 'potential' are a dime a dozen bud.

> if that were the case then everyone on youtube would have 26 million subscribers.
Then what makes YOU special? I think you are over-inflating your self worth.

>I've been trying to find work for a long time now, I can post proof too, where I live it's ridiculously hard to find work.
I personally read this as 'My CV isn't as good as it could be/I'm not trying hard enough/I'm not networking at all'. Seriously bro, getting a job isn't that hard. I've been in constant employment since age 15. I've held 9 positions in jobs ranging from construction to finance.

>You seem to be underevaluating my talent and knowledge of this field, I've lost count how many times I've looked at a youtube video and thought "this guy isn't THAT interesting" lo and behold that person has over a million subs

>None of my friends are into PC gaming dude, hard as that may be to believe it's true.
No I believe that, not everyone HAS to play PC. You misunderstood my point. Are there gaming cafes anywhere close to you? Google it, they usually have the hardware you need. There used to be 4 near to me and that was an average sized town. The going rate was £15 for 2 hours worth of gaming. There were mics and webcams too. Or why don't you invest in a thing which can record console play? I heard they were like £40. Then you can upload it to youtube.

>not all rich people are as tight fisted as you seem to be
Most are. How do you think they became wealthy in the first place? You can harp on about how Bill Gates donates fuck loads of money, but thats only because after your first billion money loses its value.

>I'm simply putting forth an idea I have and hoping that somebody has the foresight and the willingness to at least give me a chance.
I'm sorry bud but loads of people have had this idea. You will have no way to separate yourself from the crowd of kiddies who thought making youtube videos like Pewdiepie would make them rich. Your idea for a youtube channel is retarded, it sounds like the bastard child of shitty tv ghost programmes and and a lets play channel. The haunted segments will be underwhelming but made overly 'HURP DERP SCARY WHAT WAS THAT NOISE' (protip, was the house getting cooler overnight) and the gaming segments (which you apparently need the high end computer for) will be generic as fuck.

Seriosuly brah. I'm trying to set you straight. I know when you have an idea it sounds like the best thing in the world to you. However if when you share it with people and they say its crap, chances are it is. Accept it. If your concept was better maybe people would invest. Problem is it isn't a good idea.

As well as this I don't know why you need £2k. My gaming PC cost me £600, monitor £150, mic was £40 and webcam was £20. Total cost of under a grand.

You're reacting this way because you don't want to acknowledge that your idea isn't the best. That is fine; it is a common psychological response to overwhelming rejection and criticism. My attitude isn't the problem buddy, yours is.

>Then give me a grand instead.

As have the millions of other viewers on all these channels. I've spent a fair amount of time watching youtube vids and can say the same. Saying that doesn't set you apart from other people.

>I'm not the kind of person to just quit on something though
I'll give you that. However, when someone can gain something of considerable value (such as the setup you want) they can be motivated to keep going until they get it or forever. See the psychological responses some people have to scams; they keep sending money even though they know they aren't going to get anything from it.

>I am handsome, funny and well spoken, I also don't swear which is a good point to make
Same here. The swearing isn't really a thing to worry about anyway, pewds swears often and people don't care (or bitch and get him more views) and kids (as long as their parents aren't watching) love hearing bad words.
