>>16341111NICE QUADS HOLY MOLY! Let me put on my wizard's hat and robes. Also, I'm glad Koopa was streaming it. It's so exciting seeing one of my long-time favorite content creators making it! The Mr. Frog episode was SCATHING, I'm pretty sure it's a criticism to some of the Adult Swim decisions being made, but who knows?
Anyway! Today is ALL about Money!
When you ask if your clip channel is going to make it, we first need to think what that question actually means. To help us with this, the cards provide us with Two of Pentacles. This jolly little fellow is managing his priorities and time efficiently. He's able to keep tabs on his income, expenses and pastimes efficiently, and the infinity symbol created by the two coins shows that he can go on indefinitely. That's what you're asking; will I be able to keep this up, and justify it.
The biggest hurdle to your channel making it is the Queen of Pentacles. This is a card about nurturing and providing, especially in the sense of financially. Basically what this means is that it will be difficult to do this and expect financial stability from it. You will need to ensure that your income is from somewhere else, at least in the immediate future, in order for your channel to flourish. I'm sure you already know this, but these things take time and effort to grow, and you can best achieve this by making sure your own needs are seen to as well.
The Seven of Pentacles stands for Long-term views, sustainable results and perserverence. If this was what the cards recommended, all I would say you need is time, but since it is Reversed the situation is a bit different. Basically, they are telling me that, at least for now, you should focus on the now. Don't look too far ahead and don't expect miracles, because that path leads to frustration. Content creation online is fickle and difficult to predict, so having expectations that forces you to depend on algorithms and fickle people is a surefire way to burn out.
The cards aren't telling you that you will fail, or that you won't grow, but that you shouldn't put all your eggs in one basket. There's a lot of clipping channels popping up, so expect there to be competition, but if you make sure you're still having fun doing this, and that you keep your nose to the grindstone, things will surely work out in the end.

This isn't the most fun reading to get, but as someone who has started, and failed, multiple times in content creation in the past, the best advice I can give you is to be patient and make sure that you're having fun. Going in with expectations of fame, money or making connections will unfortunately just make it more likely for you to quit before you get there.
