r/Twitch_Startup

Hi all, as title says really, I do like my username but I feel like I have grown out of it as of late, especially with the school friends who gave it to me I no longer play with.

So any help or advice from more creative people would be a big help.

Only things I have recently thought to change it to is either, MattTheMachine but that's already taken, then MachineModeMatt but it doesn't fully click with me.

I do want to incorporate my name into it somehow and either be short and sweet or even a little quirky.

All by Myself, with Total Do-It-Yourself Approach to my Streams and Music! Enjoy !! ... :-) ...

I'm a dude in my 30s that has been seeing streaming since Justin tv days. I've always wanted to do this. However, back in the day I didn't have a proper PC. Then I decided at the time that I should follow the advice of the adults in my life and get into the workforce. Try to go to college. All that jazz. That all that internet and video game stuff is a waste of time.

I've worked everything from restaurants, to retail, warehouses, etc etc. Each and every job I've felt more and more like crap. Now, I'm sitting here at this cafe I work at while looking at my OBS and everything and have been asking myself "why?"

I can't do that anymore. I want this more than ever. To be my own boss and just build a community for me. I don't want to be some big name. I don't want my name in lights or some big sponsors or a energy powder flavor or whatever. I just want to do the thing I've always wanted to do, but I have no idea where to start and what in the heck to do.

I don't have a Twitter or any social media nor do I want to go about advertising my stream on like Facebook or anything. How can I start this without making a fool of myself and falling back into the regular 9 to 5 bustle.

I know stream start-ups aren't going to instantly pop off and I'm willing to put in the same amount of time building my dream I put into making sure all of these buisnesses I've busted my behind for prosper. I want to put the work ethic I've gained into ME now not into anymore of these places that barely pay above minimal and never promote from within.

I am ready and willing to learn.
