Please, someone tell me... I'm new to this MCN stuff! I've never even heard about MCN's until I got an invite from Filmsection. The invite was a refer link, with 70% commission. I did research and went to the site's sign-up page and found out I actually get 80% if I got there myself (sorry guy getting 10% commissions from refer invite links, I'm too desperate for cash!). Anyway, I signed up, got accepted, and got sent an official YouTube invite. I eagerly started clicking, but felt a bit weary about continuing, after being presented with:
"By joining zoominmovies YouTube Account, you agree to terminate your partnership on good terms with YouTube. Once your YouTube Account is linked to the zoominmovies YouTube Account,zoominmovies will receive any YouTube revenue generated by the YouTube Account that was formerly yours, and zoominmovies will be responsible for the ongoing administration of that YouTube Account.

If you agree to the above terms and conditions and would like YouTube to link your YouTube Account(s)to zoominmovies's YouTube Account, please click the link below."
I just want to feel good that I'm making the right decision by checking the "I Accept" box and hitting the blue button. I'm working on building my YouTube channel so that I can eventually live on my income (in an RV) and film a s**t-ton of well-produced videos of my adventures, including a sci-fi Star Trek spin-off called Road Trek. I'm doing this because video production is one of my strongest natural talents, and because the economy sucks and I can't even get a job at McDonald's (which I have multiple vlog rants about on my channel, if you're interested). This is my big unconventional creative solution to surviving in today's economy. I have a lot riding on this.
