| I always wondered, but It just kinda dawned on me. Even guys like Sponny, The Critic, The Nerd, do they make money of their websites? Is this like a real fucking job for them or it is just like a hobby? |

I know that the Nerd has a day job, hence why his videos come out fairly infrequently. |

| I always thought they were supported via donations. |

| It's from ad revenue. Hence why Brad doesn't like people using AD-blocker on his website, because you are robbing him of his money. |

| Isn't he a radio DJ too?
I wouldn't be surprised if Brad was the guy who actually wrote John Dies At The End. |

| I would absolutely believe Brad does radio, his voice would be perfect as the wacky morning radio host.
They make money off of ad revenue from Blip and their website. A lot of them have donation boxes as well, though as LordKat says that's a misnomer. No one on TGWTG is a charity, they are businesses. You can't file them as charity on your taxes. |

| I can't speak for Brad but I know Doug is earning close to a six figure salary through advertising revenue, donations, etc. from TGWTG.com, he's living the dream. |

How would someone get into that? I have a site network myself and, obviously, would rather make a living out of that instead of my current day job. |

Got most of them sorted. It's just how to get paid for it that I'm lacking... |

A combination of merchandise, revenue from ad's yo rent on your site, and revenue from ads blip put before your vids, because apparently, blip'll pay you for that. |

| Maybe I've misheard him, but Brad has said in a few of his videos that he works at home. Would his job then be something to do with TGWTG or his website? |

I do think he means him working on his site. I'm not 100% sure but I think the Snob is his full time job. |

i have heard mention before that he used to be a radio Dj.
i work in radio, and it's not as easy as people thinks, whether you have the voice or not.
i make a good living at it, and also work from home providing my voice to various Radio Tv ads. |
