Self esteem, the dedication to continue even with low viewership.  People will forgive tech faults, as long as you have decent content.  Don't invest too much into equipment until it can start paying for itself.

 

Create and AdSense account.  Link it to your Youtube account.  That's it really.  I should have turned on AdSense years ago, all those thousands of views on my Path of Exile videos could have made a bit of cash :P

QUOTE ME IN A REPLY SO I CAN SEE THE NOTIFICATION!

When there is no danger of failure there is no pleasure in success.

Movie maker if you're feeling basic.

You can't get anything that good for less than a few hundred pounds or dollars.

You earn money from YouTube through sponsorships (you'd have to be big and careful), donations (for which you'd have to be big) or AdSense (which is declining). Once YouTube goes to subscription based stuff, you just have to be big to get some assuming YouTube proportions things fairly.

I wouldn't use ShadowPlay, I'd really use something like Bandicam (cheap) or OBS (free). You could then use either NVENC or Intel Quick Sync, which could work very well for you.

Only voice is boring for tech, perfectly fine for just gaming.

I wasn't going to have no facecam for tech

it was no facecam for gaming

Apart from what have already, being able to take criticism is pretty important. By that I don't mean not being let down by it, but being able to use it to improve yourself.

Also, a good microphone, not something on the side of a gaming headset.. It's 2015 and not sounding like shit isn't very appealing.

I'm telling the truth! I AM a 12 year old girl!

Then the semi-good looks still apply. We went no where fast with this. :P
