How it started

Shervin was a software engineer, then product manager, who quit his six-figure job (twice) after being inspired by a Gary Vee video, moving back in with his parents and cutting costs. He made only ~$300 in his first year on YouTube, but was earning $2-3K/month when he went full time. An affiliate program invite and timely videos (like an Apple Watch Ultra review that went viral) grew his income, now ~80% affiliate and 20% AdSense.
