When I was a kid I was fortunate enough to play with computers a lot and I always wanted to make apps/sites that creates an impact around the globe.

I ship a lot because none of my projects have made even a single dollar and I will be forced to do a job starting next year if I don't make money. Understandable.

I am ready to fail small 100 times but when I will win it will be BIG.

Thinking of getting youtubers on this site where they can donate to their audiance and climb in the leaderboard which will give them fame and build trust amongst audiances. what do you think about this idea?

Yea, try everything you can think of and good luck! But my 2cents is to do these things while having a job. You'll have positive cash flow for financial security and if things don't work out then you'll at least still be able to afford to go out with friends, travel, etc. Just find a dev job that doesn't demand too much (or if it does, push back regularly or increase scrum estimation), and work on your side projects after work. I was in your position once, never made it, don't think the sacrifice was worth it, so I really recommend this.
