    Louis definitely has some ass hole characteristics too, but he has some solid points. $65k for a sponsor? ltt only cares about $, it shows big time.

    also, all YouTube personalities are narcissistic lol

      65k for a sponsored video seems fine? What is the point you are trying to make? It might be interesting to compare it with other forms of advertising.

      Louis’ point wasn’t about the price of the sponsorship. His point was that he was that Linus was justifying himself by pointing at the forum post, but the forum post isn’t worth $65k, and that Linus can’t compare a forum post to several sponsored segments.

      It’s also worth mentioning that $65k is the highest number on that list, A midroll is $7k.

        there were a lot of points, one being if you pushed honey through a video, a video should have been used to say delete honey, not hide it somewhere no one goes, that’s some shady “terms and conditions” bullshit

          Why would he tell people to delete honey? At the time he didn’t know about the coupon issue, so in his head it still gave consumers the best deal.

          Should he tell people to delete Honey so he can get more money from affiliate marketing?
