Which really goes to show that to be the best at anything, you've gotta work hard to be better than everyone else that's doing that. It's the same in the software industry. There's millions of us developers. We're all pretty much in the same boat, give or take. If you want to get to the upper echelons where you can write your own pay cheque, you've gotta have the tenacity to work hard and get there by providing more value than anyone else.
It's no different than actors. Those who routinely get the biggest box office draw and make the most money are those that appeal to the widest audience that will part with their money to watch them. Being appealing to the widest audience doesn't just come from rolling out of bed and switching on your webcam. You're going to have to work for it just like actors do... harder in fact, because you've got far more competition on YouTube than actors have at the box office.
If you want >10M subscribers, you've gotta provide more value than the average YouTuber.
