What is YouTube success to you?

I think it is implied that when someone hit big numbers, people expect you put more work into it. If i ever hit big numbers to the point where i can start considering it a job, i know for a fact i would put in 4-5times the amount of work into my channel compared to now!
Based not only on the fact that i have a "real job" now and simply don't have the time to put in the effort i want. I would absolutely LOVE to have the time to do big edited videos every day! But gotta face the fact that it will probably not happen in a near future, if at all!

I love what i'm doing on youtube as it is now! So im happy doing what i am at the moment :D Things might change and some day i might have more time to improve it all!

I agree with you on having a certain strain when you have a huge sub count. However, I always had this even when I had no sub count. I guess it is a goal of betterment if not being a ***** for fame and fortune LOL!!..I too have a day job :P ...well more like 24hour job..bleh

How do you define YT success? Is it fame? riches? sponsorships? views? subbies? fangirls? fanboys?

/Post start..GO!

EDIT: I shall post my reply here just because LOL :
Again I dish out an honest answer. YouTube success to me is when I hit big subscribers, big bucks and big fame. Yes I do it to inspire, yes I do it for fun and yes I do it because I simply just love making videos, but with that, I expect my hard work to pay off because I put hours if not days into planning, executing and follow up. I think i deserve some of that. Although I would still be happy if I had only 1 sub, 1 view and 0 money in my adsense account, but I would prefer not to because I didn't come on YouTube to have 1 sub, 1 view and 0 money and I work twice as hard to make sure my numbers go up. If I didn't want all of that, I wouldn't be working hard on my channel, social networks and everything that comes along with this world we call youtube. Ooooo the truth can hurt :p

Yeah, theres no point having 5,000,000 subscribers if they don't luke you or backstab you. I'd rather have 500 subscribers but have them enjoy my channel and be involved :D[DOUBLEPOST=1365770938,1365770893][/DOUBLEPOST]

Awwh cheers :) we're an awesome bunch of people haha :P
 
Youtube success to me is having a following. People that are interested in watching your videos, commenting on them and interacting with you. I mean yeah, in the bigger picture, it's money and fame. RWJ is successful, Jenna Marbles is successful......but I feel like us smaller channels are successful too. Sure we're not all getting thousands and thousands of views, but for the most part, we entertain and get respect and give enjoyment from the people that watch us. :)
