Is it possible to get 5k subscribers on YouTube with zero dollar spent?

Before now, YouTube channels could get high number of subscribers only by posting contents. It seems like it is not possible to get such huge followership without spending money.

Is it possible for someone to have up to 5k subscribers on YouTube spending $0?

Yes, obviously, you simply need to consistently create quality content; this will generate new users and, logically, an audience.

To achieve 5K subscribers on YouTube without spending money to buy subscribers, you have to deliver quality contents for at least three years without fail.

I believe it is very possible to achieve 5k subscribers even without paying a single dime on YouTube but this will require a whole lot of effort.
