Over the last year I've been showing new contacts and close friends how to monetize their Facebook or Myspace profile by leveraging their connections and influence in the marketplace a lot like a recording artists or film star might capitalize on their fanbase. Today in a digital age we all have a following and it's time we get paid for it. More tractable and traceable then ever before more and more people are realizing their social net worth and the list of examples grows daily.
Take SuperMac18 a YouTube personality with over 100,000 plus subscribers that following this young video-grapher on his two channels. Featured on Nick News his ad revenue share with Google allow him to pocket around 3 grand each month that his parents are placing in a nice college fund for him. After all what would a 14 year old really do with all that liquid cash flow?

And then ask yourself what a teenager without a college degree knows that some people still fail to see, that the Internet has changed all the rules and giving opportunities not to the rich, old, or even the educated but to those willing to seize them.
Now go make a silly video.
