People should just keep in mind that we are no longer in the early era of streaming on YT. There are shit tons of streamers nowadays so unless your content type is of the rarer / less common kind (i.e: actual financial or professional advises), your RPM is going to be way lower compared to how it was 5-7 years ago. New streamers are likely only going to get $2-$10 RPM (that much money every 1,000 views) or less and this depends on many other factors as well (i.e: those with a lot of SEA / EU audiences might see lower RPM due to adblocker usages, shorts or kid contents are paid much less than normal contents, your viewership retention rates, etc.)
This reminds me of the other anon who kept adamantly claiming that NijiEN's Twisty were making $12k from her 400k+ views - if only it is that easy.
