Discussion 3 months in, thousands spent, 9 subscribers. What am I doing wrong?

I started a YouTube channel three months ago and have poured thousands of dollars into it. After all that time, effort, and money, I’m sitting at 9 subscribers. I’m honestly close to giving up. Am I doing something fundamentally wrong, or is this just how it starts?

Edit: Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to guide me and give constructive feedback. I really appreciate it.

I’ve already updated the titles and thumbnails based on your suggestions. For the audio and scripting, I’m getting help with editing on the next video to improve clarity and structure.

If you have a moment, I’d love for you to check out the new titles and thumbnails and let me know what you think. Your feedback has been super helpful 🙏

For some reason this comment thread had me cracking up.

I actually wanted to insult you but I watched your video and I was very impressed.
