Farmers earn more from YouTube than their crops

For the life of me I don’t fully understand what sort of farmer is olly’s farm. He talks a lot about farming but we don’t see a whole pile going on and very little livestock. What’s bugging me does he still have his shades on his head under that cap.
I can see him going far,especially with the electric Polaris
In his head he is going places
 
Did have a laugh at him that he’s offering a “ groundwork’s service “ as part of his new business, alongside his sales and contracting. Yet he’s hired in another company to do his own yard, then f**ks off to roll his barley and takes nothing to do with the prep work other than driving a dumper for half a day, and chaps in a peg or two. :ROFLMAO:
Great advertising 👏

I don’t know him personally but have seen a few of his vids on YouTube. He seems alright. Not for everyone but he’s got an audience and I would wish him all the best good luck to the lad. I dont understand the fairly relentless trolling he gets on here it’s a bit cringeworthy at times. 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

I don’t think the lad is bothered by the comments on here other wise he’d have stopped making videos. Wish I could be a bit more carefree like him, but without making a tit of myself.

There the ones who keep his viewing figures up and give him a few quid in the process 😂
 
I agree. I would say part of the cause of the untidiness is he has started far too many projects and has left them unfinished around the farm. He would be better off finishing them completely.

It is like as if he has made spending money a chore. Whereas, a few years ago he seemed to value money much more and spend it when he had it. Now he just seems to spend it faster than he can earn it. A new parlour, two new tractors, a pickup, and lot's more all in the space of just a few months! This just paints a pretty picture for dairy farming, when in reality for some farmers it can be the exact opposite!

Like you have quite rightly said, it could do with being tidier. It didn't need anywhere near as much money as what Tom has thrown at it to improve it. I'm just glad it's not my money.
anyone any idea what sort of money he could be earning from youtube?
