They Make How Much?!
Man, I need to switch jobs.
Most of us are on YouTube watching something that piques our interest every day or a few times a week. You can find any kind of video on the site, from health and beauty to cooking and traveling. While YouTube brings in billions of views every day for all sorts of topics, some of us wonder how much some of these people are making from YouTube.
A lot of these people are not out working jobs like the rest of us. So, the question is, how much do they make in a year by just making videos for us to watch? How much money can someone make if he or she put all their time and effort into making videos for the rest of us?
DanTDM
It is known he is the most wealthiest YouTuber at this time, currently being paid yearly a nice sum of $16,500,000! What sort of videos does he make? Well, he is known for his Minecraft videos. Being ranked as one of the top channels this has open some doors for him. He has worked on YouTube red series along with working on some TV shows. I have to say, he has done pretty well so far.
VanossGaming
Evan Fong has done great with his YouTube career, bringing in $15,500,000 yearly with his channel. He is known for not sticking to one genre of games, so there is something for everybody. Evan has also worked on a few other projects on YouTube over the years. Evan is still climbing up the YouTube ranks; he is currently behind DanTDM, even though Evan currently has more followers on YouTube. We will have to see if he will start earning more than DanTDM.
Markiplier
He is one of my favorite YouTubers if you really want to know. Mark is known for his video game playthroughs and his reaction to horror games. He has blown up on YouTube with his Five Nights at Freddy's gameplay, which hit millions of views. Mark is currently working on a handful of projects for the upcoming year. I know I am excited to see what is next.
He currently makes $12,500,000 yearly from his YouTube channel. He just hit 20 million followers on his channel that is still growing rapidly. Congrats on the 20 million, I am one of them!
Logan Paul
People either love or hate Logan Paul, and well, I don't like him at all personally, with his stunt in the suicide forest in Japan which rubbed many people the wrong way, to just the way he acts and treats others in his videos.
But, despite what a lot of us think of Logan, he had climbed up YouTube and is making himself $12,500,000 yearly from YouTube itself. That does not include his recent fight with KSI that was shown live from YouTube in the middle of 2018. Spoiler alert: he lost the fight, which most of us were not surprised by.
PewDiePie
PewDiePie is currently holding the most followers on YouTube, which is at 63 million people! That is a lot of people watching and following everything you do.
Everyone knows of him or at least heard about him in some way or the other, either from him being a guest on multiple other YouTubers' channels or seeing him trending on YouTube when he posts a new video.
He only makes $12,500,000 from YouTube but that is not counting all the other income he has made from the other projects he has started. It is known his net worth is well over 30 million dollars.
Rhett & Link
Making the channel GMM, the channel is bringing in $4,500,000 a year. With episodes Monday to Friday, they do the episodes in seasons. So a good part of the year they are uploading hundreds of videos while they take a few weeks off of work. They play games, taste food, and play pranks on one another. It is a good channel for the family to watch. I highly suggest you guys check these two out! You won't be disappointed, I promise.

The Pearl by John Steinbeck
‘The Pearl’ is a well-known by under-read classic and, as a teacher, many of my students have absolutely loved it. Not just because it is short, but because it presents a storyline that is interesting and corrupting. Easy to read and easier to analyse, ‘The Pearl’ is one of Steinbeck’s hardest hitting classics with an underlying message about protecting what is actually important. By the end of the book, the reader is left defeated and believing in the wrong thing. The idealism around this book is incredible and it is so dark too. For a long while you are supporting the wrong people, thinking in the wrong way and the whole story becomes one long act of misdirection by Steinbeck to show in a ‘Monkey’s Paw’ fashion why we should never chase wealth and status.

Was I a Model in Japan?
During my time in Nagoya I worked and lived at the strangely famous hostel and café Nagonoya. With its chequered floors and florescent lighting it felt quite dated, but I think that was supposed to be part of the charm. The dorms were always fully booked on weekends with domestic tourists and there was always a buzz in the downstairs café. Camera crews were constantly in and out of the place interviewing the Japanese staff members who worked the café. I think it had something to do with the egg sandwiches. At least that was what was on most of the merchandise, except for that one dishcloth with the owner’s face on it. Was I being employed by a local celebrity?
