On a weekly basis I think to myself: Why oh why did I not start a YouTube channel back in 2015? I have no idea what videos I’d make, but I know they’d absolutely bang. Never in my life would I have been given damp-induced asthma from a grotty student house, and right now would probably be hanging out with Molly-Mae in the Maldives, or every single other Love Islander ever in Dubai. I’d maybe even be on the list of this rich list of highest-paid YouTube stars of 2020, which Forbes has just very helpfully published to remind us all of how unaccomplished we are.
Nine-year-old Ryan Kaji topped the list, bringing in an estimated $29.5 million.
Beauty blogger, Jeffree Star dropped from 5th highest-earner to 10th, earning an estimated $15 million.
Since its first video was uploaded 15 years ago, YouTube has become a lucrative platform for business-savvy content creators. According to Forbes, the top 10 highest-paid YouTubers secured an estimated $211 million in earnings from June 1, 2019 to June 1, 2020, which is a 30% jump from the previous year.
It s perhaps no surprise that business on YouTube is booming, as Covid-19 restrictions have forced us to spend more time at home and even more time online. Although we definitely agree with Youtube s top earner Ryan Kaji when he told Forbes, “I just can’t wait until we can go back outside.”
