I could use the internets help.

Hey Everyone.
I'll cut to the chase. Recent events have left me without a job. As such, I need to make income
to provide for my family. I've discussed this with my family and friends and they think what I
have planned is a good idea. I'd like to try my hand at live streaming full time. I have some savings to help get me through this and could really use the support from the internet.

What I'm asking for isn't money or any kind of donation (although I wouldn't turn those down =P ). All I'm asking is some of your time to watch my live stream and check out my YouTube page when you are able. Let me know what you think and subscribe/follow if you can. I'm fairly certian I can make this work, but only if I get the support needed from everyone. I really appreciate this. Here are the links:

I'll be streaming live Monday thru Saturday 2:30pm - 10:30pm EST and playing repeats when I'm not online. I'll also have daily updates, highlights, and have plans for some feature shorts I am filming at the moment. The goal is to get around 2000 views per day on Twitch.

This isn't a dissicion I'm making out of haste. It's somehting I've wanted to do for a while now, and with the loss of my job, has given me the oppertunity to make this a reality.

If it's alright, I'd like to post my channels link. =)

    There is a jobs thread where you can try to get a job.

    Streaming is not a job and you will not make any decent income from it for months or possibly years.

    And I doubt you will make enough to support a family.

    It's not a lack of support. It's something that is very explicitly against the rules.

    The only threads with links to personal sites that are ever allowed require moderator approval first.

    That's why I asked if I could post the link first. If you don't feel like supporting me in this, it's totally fine. Thanks for at least taking the time to read. :)

    2000 views per day on Twitch.

    Also this will not make you any kind of money.

    You make fractions of a penny for every view of every ad and playing multiple ads in a row does not make you more money.

    If you want to try it go for it, but you might want to not have super high hopes.

    Star, a famous TF2 player made a video about this sort of this:

    He had to upload mulitple videos a day to youtube for months and months before he even started to get 15k views a video.

    Sorry you're in a hard spot, but this isn't what we do here. Next time, ask a moderator before making a thread like this.
