Hey guys, so I have a pretty funny video for you guys today. There's not much more to say to that. Recently it came to my attention that you know. Okay, let me say this.

First of all, if anyone makes videos within the credit card space, you gotta know that this is a small Niche And you know we've been doing it for four to five years now and there's definitely overlap. Like as an example, if a piece of news come out about the AmEx Platinum card making some updates, there's nothing that changes with that piece of news. It just stays the way the way it is. You know if we're reviewing a certain credit card, the benefits really don't change.

so there are definitely a lot of overlaps within this space. But but ladies and gents, look I think there is a fine line and I Really want you guys to let me know if this is something that's more valid in bringing up as you know to people's attention. but I find it quite interesting when we start seeing the boundaries of this getting overstepped. As an example, I remember calling in Samir they were making a podcast, they made a video and basically in this video they were doing it with Ryan Trahan and they were talking about how there are some other YouTubers that straight up just copy other channels.

As an example, there are like these different variants of Mr Beast where if he makes a video, they just copy him or I think even with other top channels within the pranking Niche and like the lifestyle Niche people will copy it one to one I Didn't think this would happen within the credit card space, but boy was I wrong. Let me show you guys something pretty interesting that I found so recently I Came across this YouTube channel his name is Chandler Vernon and what I noticed really quick is that? So what I notice is some of these videos had some very odd similarities. Alright guys, so this one's actually probably my favorite example out of all of it. I Recently compared the Chase Sapphire Reserve cards of the Platinum Let's listen to my intro, take a take a look at the B-roll 2.

Our Reserve and the American Express Platinum Card are two luxury premium Tier credit cards that have been in heavy competition with one another. That's because these two cards unlock an insane amount of value for anyone who travels regularly. and they also offer some of the best credit card perks. Okay, let's stop right there.

Sapphire Reserve In the American Express Platinum are two of the most premium luxury travel cars that have been in heavy competition with each other over the years. And this is because with both of these cards you can unlock inside. Hold up, hold up guys, We hold up. There's no way there is no way he found I don't even know how you do this.

He got like a different angle of the B-roll that we have. How how did you even find this I have too many questions and not enough time. As an example, how to get a huge credit limit increase? We made this video a really long time ago. The first time I made it was three years ago.

This thumbnail here and this thumbnail I Don't know, it's kind of identical. but the funny thing is, let me let me play some of these videos. So like here, here's where things get kind of funny. All right.

So my point here. Have a good credit score. Having good credit now I Know that this apply for the right cards. if you guys apply for applying for the right cards, do is to apply for the right credit cards.

How about this one? I Say this a lot on my channel, but it's true. You guys business credit cards are seriously the goat. How about this one actually going to be applying for business credit cards? So I mean we can keep going after this credit limit increase. Always requests for a credit limit.

So when I'm going for specific credit cards, it depends on what my fourth thing that you can do to get higher credit limits is just waiting on the credit card issuers to give you an automatic okay. and then you know. I How about this one here. Why get a credit limit increase 615 Knowing why you want to increase, know why you want to get a credit limit increase.

So look, it could be coincidence I Always want to give people the benefit of the doubt. you know YouTube is a small space I Think this individual could have changed up those points just a little bit. Not going word for word. but let's get into some of these other videos because there's a lot of different examples.

All right. We posted this a month ago, but we got Uber credit what is this first one? So starting things off, we have an annual 200 Uber cash credit. Starting first with the 200 Uber cash credit. Would they have a 240 Digital entertainment credit and this comes in the form of moving on.

Next, we have a 240 Digital streaming credit. Uh, to me this is like you know what this reminds me of guys. It reminds me of the future of AI because part of me realizes the words are just so similar to where I don't know if he's watching my videos and then like typing it out as I go or if you just like has an AI bot that transcribes all of our videos and then he's going off his teleprompter. look I think it's a little too similar, but look, it's not a zero-sum game.

Everyone can do this stuff. That's why there's competition or whatever. except we're we're not really competing with much out here. I Think my favorite is this eight essential credit cards you need in 2023..

So starting things off at number one, we have the Capital One Saver One card. Now overall this is just the best credit card I found when it comes to earning cashback for anything food related. Okay I wonder what card I had for my first one for the first credit card here on my list. This is the Capital One Saver One card.

Now the reason this card one on my okay so here's like his background version of it and uh this is kind of. This is uh our our version of it too. There's at a certain point ladies and gents where this stuff gets funny. like even the mic setup I kid you not like if he changes his hair like the way I do you know the Korean style middle part I'm gonna lose.

it is over. It's really interesting anyways. all right so guys I don't do this to knock any other creators. but I think just the whole point of this is try to be authentic to yourself.

Yes, you can copy the best performing videos that we've made. You can go for a word for word, try to do our edits, try to do our titles and our thumbnails, but this is not how you break through in a space. So here's what I'll say. Chandler Vernon If you truly want to succeed as a content creator, copying one-on-one is not going to be The route.

Taking inspiration is completely okay. Taking the way that we edit the videos is completely okay. but you need to form your own thoughts. You need to truly think like this guys.

I'm not even talking, it's just have your own opinion ends because what I believe are the six best credit cards should not be the same exact six best credit cards that you think are to succeed on any platform. What I've learned over the years is to be able to learn information to learn it. You know, spend four or five hours digesting information and then being able to present it to an audience that you build up authentically in five to ten minutes. I Feel like that formula right there is key.

you know. whether it's affiliate marketing courses, whatever you want to do, you can promote it after that. Here's what I'll say guys. go ahead support this kids channel.

I Know that YouTube can be a tough game and at times it feels like you need to be someone else in order for you to succeed. but that's not true at all. A lot of people also underestimate you. Know the things that make up their flaws is a reason why they're not viewable.

But right now with the Takeover of AI people being able to make content just at a crazy Pace it is more important than ever before to just stay true to yourself. So I know my flaws is I'm not the the best speaker in the world even though you guys think I am. but there are many times where I have to literally still turn off the camera re-record it because I mess up a take and it's not up to my standard and I'll keep doing that and doing that. There are Still Moments where I know that there are teams that are operating better and I could be a better leader or I could be a better this I could be a better that.

but I realized that being authentic as a Creator showing you guys the trials the ups and downs because it is not always up. We've had many moments and I've talked a lot about on this channel. The Downs too where I threw in the towel for YouTube I was gonna go work for Rocket money because you know I thought it just wasn't possible and this was actually literally moments before my biggest breakthrough where we was starting to gain just like 100 000 subscribers a month. And keep in mind guys, our Channel blew up within one year.

I gained 900 000 subscribers I'd like to round it up to a million subscribers all in one month. We were the fastest growing YouTube channel before all the shorts crap started coming in and flooding the market. it and that was my biggest lesson. It was stepping into the unknown, trying new things and continuously optimizing I know creators even now where they still don't have anything original uh to their content.

They don't have a game plan and it's just simply mimicking others. The things that I'm going to mention in this video is out of genuine help. Okay, to make sure that you guys are coming out ahead so you're not wasting your time. Take inspiration from my videos.

You can take the points, but at least try to formulate it to your own degree. Take our edits, but always think instead of let's copy this. how can I do it Even better than what I'm doing because we're not the best out here guys by no means so whether you're a Creator or even if you don't do YouTube at all I Hope at least this video right here gave you guys a little bit of perspective on how you should just carry forward in life. always stay authentic to yourself, have originality, have your own thoughts, have your own opinions, because that's what makes people unique to you.

Now by the way guys. I Went ahead and launched a brand new Discord We had a Discord or like three four years ago for our credit card group.
