The biggest thank you I can possibly manage. (Patreon)

Hey there everyone and thanks so much for all of your support and well wishes during everything that's happened with my channel. It's been a wild ride ever since I started YouTube entirely in 2011, and ever since opening Patreon in 2014, I really do struggle to put into words how much your support has helped moved the channel forward. I know it's easy for many to think that all of your hard-earned cash goes towards my family's wellbeing, or if you're cynical - treating myself - but believe it or not; ever since starting Patreon, that couldn't be further from the truth. Obviously, you've kept my family aflosat during the multiple adpocolypse's and my own channel nearly dying towards the end of December - but whenever possible, your funds go directly back to the videos.

I've always kept a seperate little notebook of all Patreon funds that are accumulated month after month, and those funds are what goes towards supporting the channel and the business itself directly. Buying games specifically for reviews or streaming, buying programs online for video production (such as Vegas Pro or Magix Music Maker), buying monitors and speakers for editing, even spending money to keep the website domain caddicarus.com for myself (yes, there are plans for that domain soon!) - everything you can imagine that involves investing into this channel and the continued production of more videos is all down to you guys. Every single little contribution has helped, so as I always say during streams, don't EVER put yourselves down for 'not giving enough'. Without any of you, none of this would be possible.

As you can see, this post has pictures attached, with captions explaining what they are. This is only a small handful of everything that YOUR funding has contributed towards. Construction costs for converting a garage into a green room, props, costumes, lighting, microphones, camera accessories, everything - and this isn't even half of it. I wanted to make this post because to be honest, it's been a LONG time overdue - and I'm sorry it's taken me so long to get to. But now, since I've waited this long, you're able to see a bigger chunk of everything that's been worked on behind-the-scenes all in one big thank you post, instead of a lot of smaller scattered posts. You can get a better idea of the scope with lots of images and explanations in one post, so I hope a few of you will now stop feeling guilty for 'only giving a dollar'. As you can clearly see, EVERY little bit has helped out magnificently.

I hope to keep you entertained, I hope to keep you happy with the quality of the videos, I hope to keep making them better with your help, and I hope you're all doing really well and keeping yourselves safe. If any financial problems arise on your end, don't feel obliged to stay for my sake. They are FAR more important than any stupid YouTube videos I make, and if you have to leave (or even WANT to leave), there will NEVER be bad blood or hard feelings whatsoever. Just you guys even clicking on this page is amazing, let alone chosing to support it. You're the important one. Look at the pictures. That was you. Make sure you look after yourselves.

Thank you. Time for me to get back to the grind. <3
