I'm not even close to that level. But just shairing my opinion... At the end of the day, we are all chasing a goal, a certain financial state in life and a part of that will be growing your expenses. That means you're investing back into what will make you more money. Will it for sure do that? Maybe not, but worst case scenario would be not trying, except if you're satisfied with you're current financial state, which you're obviously not. So yes expenses growth seems scary, but it's a main component of growing a business and wealth in general. I guess it all comes down into managing the expense growth and making sure it goes at the right place. Includes a lot of risk, but that's how it's supposed to be.

I just did some quick maths: Your revenue is $4.79M and expenses is around $1.5M. The before tax profit is $3.29M so after UK corporate tax (20%), you made roughly $2.6M in total net profit after-tax. I'm not sure if its accurate but that's a 55% after-tax net profit margin which is incredible. Maybe another video idea: Can you show what you do with that profit? Like how much money do you actually save/use for personal stuff, put into stocks/investments and how much you reinvest back into the KZitem business? I think that would be really interesting.

Not gonna lie, this was SUPER informative despite what you said. I think getting that more granular understanding of what your expenses looks like helps make that 4.2M a LOT more realistic because to some degree it’s beyond me how that amount becomes “normalized”. It also feels very “Ali” to have this level of transparency, and I really appreciate your willingness to share.

I think the benefit I get from watching this is finding out your value system. Money is a measurement of value so seeing this video is seeing what you place value on. So it was really interesting for me to see what kinds of things you value (such as books) and realising that I haven’t placed as much value on some of the things you have. So I actually get quite a lot of value from these videos.

The video was interesting to see what kind of expenses go into running a business. I think the big mistake a lot of small KZitemrs make is not thinking of this experience like a business so they end up surprised when certain bills come due like taxes. The one thing I love about the philosophy this video expresses is the whole idea of the return on investment of coaching. I think more companies need to hire coaches for managers and other things. Even in my day job working for a traditional company, I could see how business coaching would be very valuable.

I'd love to see a video on your experiences with team building: when did you decide you needed more than one person, how did you find people, what did it feel like making the transition from solo creator to team manager, what roles were the most valuable to hire for vs. contract, what roles were the hardest for you to delegate, what mistakes or hazards would you warn people about when starting to build a team, were there any roles you would have delegated sooner had you known the value for money, etc. I realize the conceit of the channel is one person addressing solo creatives/ICs at a personal level. But it's really useful to acknowledge the limits of solo creation and the value of collaboration and delegation. It sounds like your team has grown substantially this year, so you probably have a lot of fresh advice. PTYA in particular sounds like a company you *designed*, which is an exciting topic on its own.
