Many American teens have decided that going to school and getting a degree to make money is no longer the best option. Everyone is looking for the easiest way to make money. In today's generation, the easiest way is becoming a YouTuber. Why is being a YouTuber the easy way to make money?

Well, you literally get paid for eating or trying clothes on or making makeup tutorials. Some even get paid to record how amazing their life is--called vlogging. I mean who would not want to be one?! Even I have a YouTube channel. But, have you ever wondered how to become one? Or have you noticed how cliche or similar most YouTubers are? If you are wondering how to become one, check out the guide below.

1. You must have a sad backstory.

Ever noticed how most YouTubers have a really sad story which led them to become famous and rich? Seriously think about it, or go look at the old videos; they've all made one (or at least most of them). It's like the pathway to become rich and famous is struggling. You must struggle and go through a lot to make it in the YouTube world.

2. DROP EVERYTHING And move TO L.A.

Ever notice that even sometimes before becoming famous, most wannabe YouTubers drop everything, like their jobs and even leave their hometown and move to L.A? Why not just wait, till enough money is saved to make such a big move. No wonder they struggle so much. They go pursuing a job in a big city where few ever make it.

3. Guide number three: If you've ever had a Vine or Musical.ly, make the transition now while it's hot.

Most YouTubers come from Vine or Musical.ly. When Vine no longer became important they all did the big switch. Goodbye Vine, welcome corny videos on Instagram which later on leads to a YouTube career.

4. Guide number four: Do enough dumb videos to get noticed.

People will literally do anything on social media to get views. And if you do enough, you will get noticed. Once you are noticed you can build your fan base. After building a strong fan base, you can create a YouTube and have them all subscribe and now you are making money for being stupid.

Although this guide could have been too real, we all know it's true. Most YouTubers have gone through these four stages to become famous. That being said I will still continue to post videos on my YouTube channel, with the hopes that one day I too will get noticed. Once I do get noticed, I say goodbye college. But furthermore, if your dreams are to be a YouTuber do not feel ashamed after reading this; in the end, we all want an easy and respectable way to make money and say goodbye to college loans. So if I were you, I'd go out today and make a silly video. You never know when the right person might share it, them boom, free money your way.
