Sorry havn't been active.

Here's what I've been doing.

Had a friend that came over from Chilliwack B.C. and he stayed at my house for a week and basically all my free time got used up for going snowboarding, drinking and just going out. He left a few days ago and now I'm just starting to get back into the swing of things on youtube and here.

But once again if you didn't know it will take a break as I will be going to Hong Kong. On other HK news, I found out my cousins grampa eats dog meat. So I'm super excited on trying dog meat.

For the Haiti Situation this month I've raised $36.00 so far(little low from what I was expecting but like I said I don't make a lot of money off youtube. But thats in part that I wasn't making videos regularly.) I expect in Feb I will pull in $25.00 if im lucky.

**Runs outside house, as my neighbors have music loud again**
So I was writing a update and my neighbors started doing their music thing again. I rang the door bell a small white dude with a big ass beard opened the door and said Hi, I told him turn down the music. He said Its not even loud. I said you can come outside and you can hear it and then I proceeded to tell him I know at this house there are new tenant's(its a rental house) so they don't know the history of what happened. I told him if the music continues I will begin phoning the cops and the old tenants that lived there received a ticket. Then he proceeded to close the door and said "phone the cops" before the door could close I snuck in "keep the music going". Then walked back over here. As I'm writing this the music has died down, what a pussy... Talk big but then you turn down your music....

My thoughts: seriously wtf. If your going to live in a neighborhood you have to be considerate of your neighbors, and just because you don't think its loud, it doesn't mean its not loud for other people. why do all the people that move into this house, are all retarded?

Hey MrISIB, I would probably buy one if you made one :)


Also, I have a question to ask you, I have no idea if you will reply or not, but here it is anyway.

How does it feel to be subscribed to by such a popular runescaper, Gross Gore?

Yeah, that was kind of a stupid question but I was on Gross's page and looked at his subscription box and saw "MrISIB" and I thought WOW thats pretty darn cool.


Hey Benz,

First off Thanks for leaving me feed back it means a lot. As for your question on how does it feel. To tell you the truth I don't feel anything. A subscriber is a subscriber at the end of the day so someone with a lot of subscribers himself does not make me feel any different then someone with no subscribers, its the support the matters, if someone likes my videos and decides to subscribe. Awesome. More support my way. I hope that answered your question.

Sincerely,
Thomas "MrISIB" Wong

Making a T-Shirt?

I've been thinking of ways to make more money online as I have a pretty big subscriber base... I would be a idiot not to try to take advantage of that. The only thing I could think of that I could make money through is, merchandise.

But I don't have any catchy lines that I say lots, nor would I put it on a t-shirt. Honestly I've browsed youtube celebrity t-shirts and some of them are just awful and it boggles my mind who would actually buy one.

Take this for example:

This is from Chris Crocker. The first thing that came to my mind was, honestly who is this T-shirt geared towards? Obviously the only people I could see buying this shirt are males who are gay(sexual preference not gay, gay). But still its so offensive you can't wear this shirt outside, you will get glared at. so that really limits who would buy this shirt.

So the main goal I see is to make a T-shirt that you can wear outside and people won't look at you and think your a creep, but it still means something when you put it on, this is what I came up with.Pretty simple, it doesn't infringe youtube logo's copyright as its just "tube" but the "tube" clearly is from youtube so people know what your talking about. Its kinda funny/witty as its P'Diddy's "Vote or Die" so you will get looks of "cool tshirt" instead of "cum is thicker then blood.... what a weirdo!" overall its not a embarrassing shirt at all to wear and I could picture people wearing this out in public, and the cool part is you don't have to be a fan of mine or anyone's its a simple t shirt that represents youtube, so the amount of people that could buy this is limitless and hits all demographics.

What do you think? Would you buy this? It would be a $10-$15 tshirt as that's how much most T-shirts are worth. I'm still looking into this as I have 2 options buy a large quantity of shirts myself(Med and large and possibly small) and ship the shirts myself to whoever wants one or set something up at http://www.districtlines.com and their companys makes and ships the shirts themselves but obviously they would get a cut from the profit.

I also thought why not let a subscriber make a shirt? They make a shirt design and post it as a video response and the one with the most views/ratings I'll take that one and turn it into a shirt and the person who made the design would get a free shirt. From ratings and views I could gauge how many people are interested in that shirt and I could set up contests along the way.

Like Maybe from all my profit I made on that t-shirt design take a percentage like 5% and use it as a contest for all the people that bought that shirt) Also having someone design a shirt for me would start a new tshirt for me each month. I REALLY REALLY LIKE THIS IDEA AND THOUGHT THIS WAS ABSOLUTE GENIUS ON MY PART

So how much is 5% for a contest? Well lets figure out how much money I would make from a shirt. I have almost 8000 subscribers I would guess 5% of that subscriber base would buy a tshirt so 400 people and I would think I could make $2-3 if not more off a t-shirt so 400x2=$800. Thats a good chunk of change for me and $40 for a contest that your automatically entered when you buy a shirt? Thats pretty good deal and if it really takes off I'll be making more money and my contests would be bigger I'm talking Ipods, cds, movie tickets, Rs members cards.....etc.

How cool would that be? I'm not a greedy person and I always want to give back to my subscribers, so the contest thing is absolute must for me, and I think it would be awesome selling point that gives that extra incentive to buy a shirt off me.

But anyways what do you think of this?
(note: this will get turned into a video once I get back from Hong Kong but a little input would be great also note all these numbers and ideas are just ideas but I always round down to compensate for everything. If anything the numbers I used should be higher)

Note: the shirts do not have shipping yet added to them, thats the only downside. So it would be $20 per a shirt aprox.

How much is my Runescape account worth.

So here's how this topic came up. Someone left a message on my youtube channel comments section asking. Will I sell my account and how much am I will to take to part with it. I just replied back saying humor me (well actually I ment to write "lets make this funner, but typed funnier instead, but you get what I was saying) That person hasn't replied back yet but another youtube user left me a message saying "you can sell my account for $200-$500 US easy."

Now call me crazy but I think my account is worth more then $500.... There's sites out there that claim to sell gold for $1.50 per a million. Now I don't know if those sites are legit or how they even do it, but since my bank is nearly worth 2 billion gp (right now I'm sitting at 1.94B and I could easily sell all my rares at max in GE so in reality I have 2B right now, thats not even including street value on rares... (people on my youtube bank video estimate my bank worth 5B)

So...
$1.50=1mill
$15.00=10mill
$150.00=100mill
$1500.00=1000mill

I estimate my bank is worth $3000.00 not even including my actual account.

Now I know that people say, "its only worth what people are willing to pay for it" But the thing is i've seen old ebay auctions like 2 years ago where they were selling masks/santas for $25.00. There is a trade limit now, but it shows you how much someone is willing to pay for a item. I think my accounts worth more then $500.

But back to the main topic how much is my RS account worth. Well like I said $3000.00 bare minimum just for the amount of GP I have accumulated, my account has a few high lvl's and still has stats to make money in F2P and P2P. I would say my account is worth $500. But just the convince factor of having a high level account with a lot of money on it I would push my charcter up to $1000.00.

Edit: sorry I decided to stop writing this as I just got pumped up while writing this and decided to turn it into a video!

Stay tuned to see my video!

Sold my eyes.


Sorry, I forgot to update this. When I made the trade. It was 2 days ago, also the only thing I've been doing with the GE atm is buying and selling fish.
I buy these raw swordfish 7gp lower then medium then leave them in overnight at medium. so I make 140k. I will post a picture of the sold results later.

Poll results:Are you interested in making a merchanting clan



Well this is a very old poll and I was actually interested in making this a reality at one point. But in my recent video I talked about how I don't want to be the guy that picks a item and the item falls through. To any merch clan there has to be a portion of people that buys the item at max to make the item price go up but I will never tell anyone to buy a item for max. So a clan would not work. I did my small merch blogs as a small isolated test to see how it worked out....

But Thanks for the 185 people that took their time and made a vote in the poll.

A new poll is up and its called: Pepsi or Coke
I don't know I've always been a fan of Coke for a long time and would drink it any time over Pepsi. (I have no Runescape curiosity atm)

If you have some poll ideas lets hear them.
