> Youtube seems to come the closest, but Youtube educators also show how much time you have to spend attracting views instead of teaching expertise.

Actually for all the attention that the top Youtubers get (in terms of revenue), the reality is that it's going to be impossible to replace teaching income with popular Youtube videos alone.

Based on what I've seen, 1 million video views on Youtube gets you something like $5-10K. And that's with a primarily US audience that has the higher CPM / RPM. So your channel(s) would need to get to about 6 million views per year, primarily US driven, in order to get to earning a median US wage.

If you made video a week and the average is 115k views, you replace your median salary[0]. But the logic on ppc ends up being alot more complicated than you assume.

to get 6m views you need to make one video a week that gets 114k views 6000000/52 = 115,384.61.
