The $10,000 Mistake YouTubers Are Making: MilX Reveals Hidden Financial Leaks in Creator Earnings
CLAYMONT, DE / ACCESS Newswire / July 3, 2025 / New research from MilX, a fast-growing fintech platform for creators, has uncovered a costly trend among U.S.-based YouTubers: avoidable financial mistakes are causing creators to lose up to $10,000 per The findings, released as part of MilX' s 2025 Creator Finance Study, shine a light on three critical areas where creators are leaking money: freelancer payments, currency conversions, and tax compliance. 'Most creators lose money simply because they don't know better options exist. With tools like zero-fee P2P payments by MilX, they could save thousands every year.' - Paul Lekhnovsky, CEO of MilX Freelancer Payments Take a typical successful U.S. YouTube creator: 300,000 subscribers, 2.5 - 4 million views monthly, earning between $14,000 and $60,000 per month through AdSense, sponsorships, and memberships. YouTubers at this level usually work with remote production teams - editors, designers, writers. MilX research shows that many pay these freelancers through PayPal, incurring: For a creator spending $1,500/month on freelancers, that's $110-$120 in fees per month. Currency Conversions Losses Many creators still get paid in the wrong currency: every conversion takes 2-4%. That might not seem like much, but over time it adds up - $500 to $1,000+ a year, gone. MilX fix: Convert once, at real-time FX rates, in the currency you actually use. Tax Filing Errors When you're a YouTuber, your revenue might come from multiple sources - AdSense, sponsors, affiliate links, merch, and fan support. But the IRS sees it all as taxable income. Don't forget to: Skipping any of these steps can lead to penalties, backup withholding, delayed payments, or even an audit. Skipping Deductions Not claiming business expenses can cost you even more. Here are a few examples creators often overlooked on tax returns: Missing these deductions alone could mean paying taxes on $7,000 to over $12,000 you didn't have to. MilX Helps Creators Keep More of Their Income MilX is designed to help creators access their YouTube earnings faster and manage their funds more efficiently - without losing money to unnecessary fees or delays. 'The $10,000 mistake is 100% preventable,' said Paul. 'We built MilX so creators can stop leaking cash and start building wealth.' MilX Co-founder Paul Lekhnovsky will attend the Europe 2025 FinTech Awards in London on July 3, where the company is a finalist in two categories: Startup of the Year and Disruptor of the Year.

Joe Biden's 2022 cancer ‘slip-up' resurfaces amid ex-president's recent diagnosis
Former President Joe Biden's heartbreaking prostate cancer diagnosis has drawn renewed attention to his 2022 slip-up in which he claimed to have had cancer during a public speech. Biden's alarming comments came during a speech about emissions from oil refineries near his childhood home in Claymont, Del., and which he appeared to blame for his cancer. 'That's why I and so damn many other people I grew up with have cancer and why for the longest time Delaware had the highest cancer rate in the nation,' Biden said during his 2022 remarks about global warming at Brayton Power Station in Somerset, Massachusetts. Biden's use of the present tense 'have' raised eyebrows at the time, but former White House spokesman Andrew Bates referred The Post to Washington Post fact-check honcho Glenn Kessler, who suggested it was a reference to 'non-melanoma skin cancers.' Former White House physician Dr. Kevin O'Connor didn't describe Biden as having cancer in his medical reports on the 46th president from around that time. But he did address Biden's history with skin cancer and appeared to blame it on excessive sun exposure during his days as a lifeguard instead of chemicals from oil refineries. 'It is well-established that President Biden did spend a good deal of time in the sun in his youth,' O'Connor explained in a 2021 report on the former president's health. 'He has had several localised, non-melanoma skin cancers removed with Mohs surgery before he started his presidency. These lesions were completely excised, with clear margins.' On Sunday, a Biden spokesman announced the news of the former president's 'aggressive' cancer diagnosis and noted that it had metastasised to the bone. 'Last week, President Joe Biden was seen for a new finding of a prostate nodule after experiencing increasing urinary symptoms,' a spokesman said. 'On Friday, he was diagnosed with prostate cancer, characterised by a Gleason score of 9 (Grade Group 5) with metastasis to the bone.' Gleason scores go up to 10, with the 8-10 range generally seen as advanced forms of cancer that are unlikely to be cured, though there are treatments that may slow its growth. 'While this represents a more aggressive form of the disease, the cancer appears to be hormone-sensitive, which allows for effective management,' Biden's spokesman added. 'The President and his family are reviewing treatment options with his physicians.' Given the advanced nature of Biden's diagnosis, some medical experts have wondered how the cancer wasn't caught earlier. 'He's had this for many years, maybe even a decade, growing there and spreading,' Dr. Ezekiel Emanuel, a former member of Biden's transition team, told MSNBC 's 'Morning Joe' on Monday. 'He did not develop it in the last 100 to 200 days.' 'He had it while he was president. He probably had it at the start of his presidency in 2021. Yes, I don't think there's any disagreement about that,' added Emanuel, who helped craft the Obama-era Affordable Care Act. Others, such as Howard Forman, a physician and former professor at the Yale School of Medicine, have said it was 'inconceivable' that Biden's prostate cancer wasn't caught earlier. 'It is inconceivable that this was not being followed before he left the Presidency,' Forman wrote on X. 'Gleason grade 9 would have had an elevated PSA level for some time before this diagnosis. And he must have had a PSA test numerous times before. This is odd.' About 13% of men are likely to suffer from prostate cancer in their lifetimes, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. In 2015, Biden lost his elder son, Beau, to brain cancer and later led the Obama administration's Cancer Moonshot Initiative. 'Cancer touches us all. Like so many of you, Jill and I have learned that we are strongest in the broken places. Thank you for lifting us up with love and support,' Biden said on X alongside a smiling photo of him and his wife, Jill. The cancer revelation came in the midst of a brutal news cycle for Biden in which Democrats and pundits were reflecting on concerns about his age and mental acuity ahead of the release of 'Original Sin,' a book by CNN's Jake Tapper and Axios' Alex Thompson.
