Very good question. I really like YouTube and I think it can be a good form of passive income for the following reasons:

- Although it is saturated, it is really only a small number of users who are actively uploading content, so if you are good you can scale quickly. (It's very hard in the beginning, but once you have a good audience it gets easier).

- This year there are many people who created channels from 0 and already have millions of followers, so I feel that there are still people who use this platform daily. (an example of this is CALEB SIMPSON)

-It's free to start (and you can do it from your phone), so you don't waste money trying. As for time, I don't think you spend more than 4 hours a week uploading content.

The only thing that seems bad to me about YouTube is that it no longer gives you as much profit as before and the algorithm is getting worse. But for someone who has never used YouTube as a passive income, even $100 dollars a month that you start generating seems like a good deal to me.

I am a fan of platforms and businesses in which you can use your time as you like, you do not have pressure from clients, and you generate money even if you decide to take a week off.
