If YTube kills your monetization....

If they disable monetization on your old account, simply start a new anonymous account under a new email and pseudonym, and continue going about your business. As long as you don't get perma banned on your Google ID you CAN keep coming back.. The new accounts people create now, their monetization has become considerably more democratized than previous incarnations of the y-tube website. To that much, I suppose I should credit youtube for making the right decision there.
