“You’ve received the funds from Escrow.”

I couldn’t believe it.

After a two month process, I had done it.

Something that I started for nothing almost 10 years ago as a hobby. Something that had no physical location or products, no running costs, no employees or staff.

I had just sold for $11,000 USD (just over $15,000 AUD).

And I did this in a time when people are losing money and hesitant to spend it.

I’ll admit it’s still a little hard to believe. Until recently I never knew that selling a YouTube channel was even a thing.

But as it turns out.

It is.

I’ll admit it was a hard decision. But I know it was the right one. In fact, it taught me many lessons. And I am going to share them all with you in…
