A video about what expensive car owners do for a living took the internet by storm and started one online influencer's lucrative content-creation career. 

Daniel Macdonald, known as "Daniel Mac" across social media platforms, spoke with Fox News Digital about how he became an internet sensation by inquiring about what people on the streets do for a living. 

"It was during COVID and I walked up to somebody in an Audi R8 and I asked them what they did, I posted a video and my first video got like 40 million views just right off the bat," Macdonald said. 

He continued to post similar videos and, a week later, had one million followers.

"It was kind of like an untapped market of people that were interested in a little bit of comedy, but also in figuring out how they could also get wealthy too. It was like the boom of kind of financial, on-the-street interview-style content," Macdonald said. 

Along with interviewing supercar owners, he has also interviewed owners of yachts, watches, and other luxury items. 

Macdonald described his niche as asking what luxury owners do for a living in order to get an insight into how these people became wealthy.

When he started producing content, he didn't realize that there was also an opportunity to make money from content creation outside of YouTube. 

Then a few months later, Macdonald started receiving deals, recalling, "I did my first brand deal with Helen Mirren for ‘Fast and Furious.’ And that was like six months after I posted my first video."

One big check surprised Macdonald, and was the start of his full-time content creation career. 

"The money was really interesting too. I remember, the first check that actually made me consider quitting my job was from Snapchat. And I remember looking at it and thinking it was a misprint, but the amount was basically my annual salary for a month. And that's when I realized that this is actually something that can be really lucrative."

He then quit his 9-5, which he described as "really scary," and moved to Los Angeles. The leap of faith paid off and now Macdonald has met many celebrities and continues to post content to his social media pages that each have millions of followers and subscribers. 

"Every day, I'm like, this is the dream job. I can't even believe it's a reality," he said.

Macdonald shared what he learned from interviewing wealthy people.

"I think that's something that a lot of younger people need to hear is that you really don't need to have your job figured out because most of these wealthy people did 10 different things before they got wealthy that I interviewed."

Additionally, Macdonald added that many wealthy people are not flashy and maintain a low profile.

"It's actually a lot harder for me to get interviews out of people that are on that top, top level because they don't want to flex," he said.

Macdonald concluded that he believes his platforms are encouraging other young people to get out of their comfort zone.

"I get people to get out of the house and get out of their comfort zone, kind of like I do," he said.

The United States Embassy in Jerusalem has issued a security alert stating that American government workers and their families in Israel remain indoors, as Iran has hit the Jewish state with drone and missile strikes.

The alert, first made on Saturday and then posted again Sunday morning, comes as Iranian strikes have so far killed at least 10 people in Israel and injured upwards of 180. 

"As a result of the current security situation and ongoing conflict between Israel and Iran, the U.S. Embassy has directed that all U.S. government employees and their family members continue to shelter in place until further notice," the embassy’s alert, posted on its website and X, said.

"Given the proximity of missile and debris impacts, the U.S. Embassy has offered employees living near the Ministry of Defense in Tel Aviv the option to voluntarily relocate to new accommodations further away," the alert continued.

Meanwhile, Israeli airspace remained closed, with arrivals and departures, according to a statement from an Israel Airports Authority spokesperson.

Iran’s bombardment of Israel came in response to Israel’s strikes against Iranian nuclear and military targets, which Israeli officials said were preemptive measures as Iran drew closer to developing nuclear weapons.

"I'll tell you what would have come if we hadn't acted. We had information that this unscrupulous regime was planning to give the nuclear weapons that they would develop to their terrorist proxies," Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu posted on X on Saturday. "That's nuclear terrorism on steroids. That would threaten the entire world."

Israel has also made clear that strikes against Tehran are far from over, issuing a warning to the people of Iran.

"Urgent warning to all Iranian citizens: All individuals currently or soon to be present in or around military weapons production factories and their supporting institutions must immediately evacuate these areas and not return until further notice," the Israel Defense Forces said in an alert posted in Farsi. "Your presence near these facilities puts your life at risk."

The IDF contrasted their approach with that of Iran, which has launched attacks at civilian areas.

"This is the message we spread to Iranian citizens. While Iran chooses to strike without warning, we choose to warn a innocent [sic] people even if it means giving up the element of surprise," the IDF posted to X Sunday morning. "We warn them, in Persian, across many channels. Because human life comes first to us. That’s the difference between us and our enemy."
