I live so far away from anyone who watches me, I'll never be stopped in the street. So fine, go for it

150,000 subscriber milestone face reveal pls xD
I almost said a while ago I'd do it at 100k because I didn't actually think i'd get anywhere near that. Glad I didn't say it now, dodged a bullet there

Sorry just reading all your responses now.

I know most of you say don't show my face, but unfortunately that defeats the purpose of my type of content. I initially started my channel to document my life living at Walt Disney World, and to help other people get a job there in whats called the CRP program. And I love my small little Disney family that I have found because of my channel. I just wish that (if it ever to happen) once I get 50,000-100,000 subs, it stays there. Which I know is not possible. But I find the channels who have millions of followers, very intimidating (the followers not channels). I think it would be great to live off of adsense income, but I also value privacy. I do admire how some of you have made successful channels, without your subscribers ever knowing who you really are. Thats really intriguing![DOUBLEPOST=1489549606,1489549094][/DOUBLEPOST]
I'm the same way. I'd much rather be the cameraman and/or the person in the music producer's chair behind the scenes. Right now, I don't have anyone else but myself to film and make music for...so....I film myself playing music. As more and more people say they know me from my videos, I want to disappear and go back to being invisible... x_x

I don't know why....I guess I've never liked attention. I like "making things," especially creative things, and I love playing music, but the attention/performance requirements that comes with it isn't my definition of "fun..." I think it's especially so since I'm a very very very private person lol. xD What am I doing on YouTube?! haha!
I understand how you feel. I always feel so awkward when I'm serving at work, and a table says they watch my videos. It's really cool, but I feel like they know who I am and they're strangers. To me it's a concept I can't wrap my head around.

As to the creative part... I love YT for that reason. Being able to share different types of creativity on a social platform and get feedback, as well as inspire others. That is what makes YT fun! But I'm also a private person, who is extremely introverted. So I don't know why I put myself out there either. It's a double-edged sword.

Maybe, but if you are not in it for the fans, for the people watching, then are you just in it for the money? I would say definitely, my fans are what keep me going, and the more fans the more motivation, a lot of fans and fame
