Your assessment
Most buyers open with earnings history. It's the one number the platform already reports. The better question is which videos produce the revenue. If three of four hundred carry most of it, you're buying something far more fragile than the monthly figure suggests. The listing won't tell you, and almost nobody asks.
The expired strike isn't the risk. What it reveals about how the content was made is. A strike for music and a strike for reused footage look identical on the record — but the second means the library may sit on material the seller never had the right to use. That transfers to you in full, and it doesn't expire.
A seller who writes and voices everything for four years isn't running a channel. They are the channel. The question isn't how long they stay on. It's whether anyone else could do what they do. If not, you've bought an obligation to keep producing — or a decline you can't stop. The listing calls this owner-operated and leaves it there.
You're asking better questions than most buyers do. Most open with the earnings screenshot and stop there. But instinct works once. A process works every time — knowing what rules a channel out before you've spent three weeks on it, and saying no with a reason rather than a feeling.
You are serious enough to act and early enough to avoid the expensive version of learning this. Most buyers acquire that education by overpaying once.
