Sophisticated click bait title. He is getting better at his job, no reason to stop now.
I'd argue that it's not entirely clickbait as it also fulfills the promise of the title. Presuming it's a goodbye video is an easy one to make, but it is a presumption. Instead, the whole video is literally about things that don't last forever.

My impression is that what Beato is saying is that it is okay for people to want to change their careers even if it means doing something less lucrative or prestigious.

I think you're spot on with that. He's made other videos supporting that very opinion.

It's self evident. He talks about having multiple careers and moving from one to the other. He talks about his current career, how long a successful YouTube channel lasts and the fact that he is 60 years old.
This is his last career, if and when it flames out. And he knows it.

Considering his success, I don't think he'll give a shit, nor should he. He'll be able to hang it up with a great many accomplishments.

True, but I wonder how much he has managed to sock away from YT. Nothing else he has done has been lucrative, unless his producing career made a good living.

@Jolly how much can you really earn via YouTube?
Is it based on subscribers? Likes? Views?

The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

Ask AL, he's more clued in than I am. Beato has 3,000,000 subscribers.

It's based on a LOT.
- The YouTube Partner program is how you make money with ads. But there are many kinds: skippable ads, non-skippable, mid-roll ads, bumpers, etc., etc. They all pay out differently but basically, you can make anywhere between $1 to $5 per 1,000 video views. Subscribers doesn't mean anything here. Beato monetizes some of his videos in this way.
- You can also set up paid subscriber options, similar to, say, a Patreon subscription. Anyone can choose a free subscribership, though, so YouTubers who choose this option typically do something extra for paid subscribers. Beato doesn't do this I don't think.
- You can also monetize live streams through ads or SuperChat. Beato does the latter, but I don't think the former.
- Then there are collabs with companies to do ad reads. They pay either a flat rate or a pay per view type deal, it depends on the company. Beato doesn't do this.
- Affiliate links. This is linking product info in the video descriptions. If clicks eventually convert to a sale, the YouTuber gets a cut of what's bought. The better money is not through big affiliates like Amazon—they pay peanuts—but with the smaller guys.
Those are the most common ways, but there are dozens of monetization strategies out there.
