it's a sad world we live in but props to the people that milk idiots who watch their crap on the internet

Only one I sometimes watch out of those is PewDiePie. The best Youtube channels are always the more obscure ones.

How did PewDiePie gather so much attention? He seems like a pretty clever guy but I do not get the appeal.

Absurd and total waste of time. This is entertainment for low IQ masses.

Time is precious and goes by very quickly. Time is better spent increasing your knowledge... develop skills... increase your personal power... make money.

I think it's mostly children watching these morons. My neighbor's son watches a couple guys on this list all fucking day. I checked them out and it's just idiotic jokes, 'try not to laugh' videos, and them making stupid comments while playing video games.

I bet this one makes some cash . . . She could probably talk me into murder. Sadly, yes I do subscribe ( my guilty pleasure.)

People are conditioned to not complain about corporations producing endless inane entertainment but then become angry and vocal when non-corporate individuals break into media and have success.

People like to see stupid shit, watch and listen train wrecks, meaning gossip and others demises or failures. It’s said if you capture people’s attention in the first 3-10secs, they’ll watch.

Those are the highest paid though.. and is that lifetime or last year's earnings?

How many YT"s make $100k/year?

Thats a stat I'd like to see

You have 100,000 followers for example.. what are you're expected earnings?

I really doubt anyone other than the top guys are making even $500/month..... even that bikini chick

Kind of looks like a 1991 Christina Applegate

I've become a recent fan of Marques Brownlee for his tech reviews. He was purported about a year ago to pull $700/day on YouTube. This is in addition to other streams of income he has from the various projects he's involved with. He's 25 years old now and started doing tech reviews when he was 13. Not only is he knowledgeable, but has a nice, pleasant, easy-going manner and not at all pretentious and gimmicky.

I even like the way he says his cliche tagline.

Peace.

In the US alone his extended family numbers close to 20000 square people(Ray, Tay, Tray, Gay, Bay, etc.)... so his subscription base is pretty stable.

There are even video game collectors who do you Youtube videos as their full-time job.

Earning enough to live a good standard and still afford regular purchases of collectible games and consoles.

The same applies to all kinds of hobbies really.
