When you think of YouTubers who flaunt their worth one of the first to spring to mind would be MrBeast. The philanthropist and giveaway veteran has built a career on giving away exorbitantly priced items and gifts to friends, fans, and even strangers.

While the flashy videos might draw in millions of views and have created a large following for Jimmy Donaldson, or more commonly known as MrBeast, it can’t be cheap to regularly produce this kind of content.

In this article, we’ll be sharing some of the methods that MrBeast uses to fund his channel and add to his increasing net worth. There may be more methods outside of his brand, but these are the main ways the YouTuber gets things done.

How Does Mr Beast Make Money?

Ad revenue

MrBeast published a video in December of 2018 called “How I Gave Away $1,000,000” and in its conclusion, he shared that the money had come from his YouTube revenue stating “YouTube pays better than you think.” 

While it isn’t clear what CPM MrBeast has on his channel, he seems to be earning an extremely healthy amount from views on the platform. This is a common practice creators use to get by and with the millions of views each of his videos gets, it’s no wonder MrBeast is able to fund his videos with income from his channel.

Sponsorship

Another great way that creators including MrBeast bolster their income is by taking on brand sponsorships. MrBeast has quite a few regular sponsors like the internet plugin Honey, but he’s also taken on one-time sponsors in the past.

This process works by the brand paying a fee for MrBeast to shout out their brand or product on his video for his audience to hear and hopefully purchase.

Merch

One of the other ways that MrBeast makes money is through his merch line. Available at shopmrbeast, Jimmy sells a variety of products from shirts, jumpers, even school supply sets. These products are extremely popular among his fanbase and with their size likely bring in a massive amount of passive income for the creator each year.

It’s difficult to predict which TV shows will capture the zeitgeist and seize the imagination of the public, and one very notable example has been You. The twisted psychological thriller initially premiered on Lifetime back in September 2018, where ratings weren’t exactly through the roof.

However, the series streamed exclusively on Netflix in international markets and became nothing short of a phenomenon, with 43 million viewers watching the entirety of the first season, making it one of the platform’s most-watched episodic efforts ever. Sensing they had something special on their hands, You became a Netflix original starting with Season 2, which went on to draw in 54 million subscribers in the first four weeks after it was made available.

Fans have been wondering what comes next for Penn Badgely’s Joe since December 2019, especially when the finale was peppered with outlandish twist after outlandish twist following the revelations surrounding The Haunting of Hill House star Victoria Pedretti’s Love Quinn, setting Season 3 up to head into even more bonkers territory.

The good news is that we now have official confirmation from Netflix that You will be back on our screens in the very near future, with the first Season 3 teaser unveiling an October 15th bow. Based on how it’s gone from an under-the-radar genre title to one of the streamer’s biggest in-house shows, expect You to instantly rocket to the number one spot on the Top 10 and stay there for a long time.

If you’re not heavy on YouTube, odds are you’re not going to recognize the name Markiplier. However, Markiplier is one of the most successful YouTubers of the platform’s first generation. He’s most notorious for his game playthroughs of indie and horror games, including the Five Nights at Freddy’s series, Amnesia: The Dark Descent, and Happy Wheels. Over the years, Markiplier has made a decent living off his gameplay and sketch comedies by collaborating with other famous YouTubers like Pew Die Pie. But how tall is the 32-year-old YouTuber?

Markiplier, whose real name is Mark Edward Fischbach, is a small-time writer, producer, and actor featured in various big movies and short films. The guy has even managed to rub shoulders with big-name celebrities like Jimmy Kimmel and Jack Black. But for the most part, Markiplier has been a YouTube personality. For the better part of the last decade. And according to Celebrity Net Worth, Markiplier’s YouTube streaming has landed him a net worth of $35 million thanks to the 29 million subscribers on his YouTube channel.

Nominated for several Streamy Awards, Markiplier has become one of the go-to YouTube personalities for game playthroughs, and his success has landed him several entertainment deals throughout his career. In 2014, he joined the comic book publisher Red Giant Entertainment’s board of shareholders and later starred in his own comic book series. And also, in the same year, he signed with media group Endeavour to expand his brand further into other branches of entertainment like acting.

He now owns a fashion brand called Cloak with fellow YouTuber Jacksepticeye, which he launched in 2018 and currently hosts podcasts like 3 Peens In A Podcast and Distractible; while in addition, he produces YouTube Premium movies like 2019’s “A Heist With Markiplier.” 

So How Tall Is Markiplier?

At first glance, you wouldn’t guess the 32-year-old YouTuber star is only 5′ 10″, even though he sometimes looks like he’s exactly 6ft. But then again, it’s not like we see him often outside of YouTube, and with all the special effects that videos have nowadays, it’s easy not to pay attention to the small difference of a few inches.

If you’ve spent even a little time on YouTube, then chances are you’ve seen at least a couple of videos from one of its most popular creators. Casey Neistat’s name is basically synonymous with YouTube, especially with so many aspiring vloggers out there seeking to emulate his style. The filmmaker and vlogger has been creating content on the platform since 2010 and has since amassed over 12 million followers in addition to his 3 million on Instagram. His easygoing personality and innovative filmmaking have made him one of the most successful and widely-known content creators in the world.

As glamorous as his life is now, it didn’t start off that way. Neistat dropped out of high school when he was 17 and never went back, opting instead to work in restaurants to support his new family. He and his girlfriend at the time, Robin Harris, had just had a baby named Owen and together the three of them lived in a trailer park in Connecticut until Neistat was 20.

In 2001 he moved to New York City, where he worked as a bike messenger and began dabbling in filmmaking with his brother, Van. Together they collaborated with artist Tom Sachs and made films about Sachs’ sculptures and art installations. In 2003, Neistat made a short film called iPod’s Dirty Secret that went viral before “going viral” was even a phrase in our vocabulary. The film criticized Apple for not offering replacement batteries for their iPods and attracted the attention of major media outlets like Rolling Stone and The Washington Post. Weeks later, Apple changed their policy and began offering replacement batteries, which they claimed had nothing to do with Neistat’s film.

Neistat would go on to film more successful projects with his brother including a film series called Science Experiments in 2004. In light of his online success and growing reputation as a captivating filmmaker, HBO ordered an eight-episode television series called The Neistat Brothers for $2 million. This put both of the Neistats directly in the spotlight.

Things only went up from there when Casey began sharing video content on YouTube in 2010. From criticisms of New York City’s bike lanes to motivational videos that would later lead to speaking engagements and TED Talks, Neistat’s creativity went wild on the video sharing platform. He got even more personal in 2015 when he began filming daily vlogs, some of which featured him skateboarding through city traffic and even snowboarding his way through epic blizzards.

So How Much Is Casey Neistat Worth?

The combination of his YouTube content, television credits, directing projects, speaking engagements, and other creative endeavors have given Neistat a net worth of over $16 million. A large chunk of these earnings came after he and Matt Hackett created a video app called Beme, which they sold to CNN in 2016 for $25 million.

Neistat, who used to live in Tribeca, now resides in Los Angeles with his wife Candice and their two children, Francine and Georgie. Neistat still films vlogs on YouTube and regularly partners with brands like Nike to produce socially relevant content that highlights other change-makers in the world. He recently made his feature film debut in Project Power on Netflix (which he discussed in a YouTube video entitled “JAMIE FOXX GAVE ME A BLACK EYE”) and was featured in Tim Ferriss’s self-help book Tools of Titans.

What Neistat, now 40, will do next is anyone’s guess, but there’s no doubt it will be just as creative and out-of-the-box as he is.

Restaurant to Another World (known as Isekai Shokudou in Japan) was a surprisingly big hit when it was released all the way back in 2017. It was popular with fans, rated highly on sites like MyAnimeList, and brought a whole new flavor to both the slice-of-life and fantasy genres of anime.

Despite its success, it took four years for the show to have a second season announced. Today on the show’s official website, it was officially announced that the series will begin airing on October 1st for the Fall 2021 anime season. They also dropped a new trailer that features a whole new character for fans to get excited over. Hilda is a demon mercenary based in the capital that is known as a “Night Strider” due to her expert abilities to work in the dark. She looks like a bit of a catgirl which will be exciting for certain fans.

The new trailer also showed off the season’s opening and closing songs, “Onnaji Kimochi” (Same Feeling) and “Samenai Mahō” (Warmed-Over Magic) respectively.

The show has a lot of new staff going forward into its second season as well. While Masato Jinbo of Chaos;Child fame is set to return as director, Yasukazu Shoji is replacing the two previous character designers for the show. They’re even changing the animation studio for the series, with OLM taking over for SILVER LINK.

It is likely that Crunchyroll will stream the series as it airs with Funimation airing the dub as they have done with the series previously. The anime will premiere on TV Tokyo and will also air on on TV Osaka and AT-X.

Ray William Johnson may not be the huge name on YouTube that he used to be but at one point Equals Three was one of the most popular programs on the platform. He would discuss viral videos on YouTube while cracking jokes and many consider Equals Three to be the predecessor that inspired popular shows like Ridiculousness and Tosh.0 today.

One of the most popular side projects to spawn from Johnson’s miniature media empire at the time was the musical project Your Favorite Martian. It was once the most subscribed to music channel on the entirety of YouTube and had sold over 1.2 million songs on iTunes. After a dispute with Maker Studios back in 2012 over AdSense revenue sharing on the project as well as future creative control, the album the band was working on was canceled.

Ever since then, the once-famous channel has been called THIS PROJECT IS RETIRED with the last song posted to the channel being Boom Headshot on September 21st, 2012. But now fans have seen some interesting activity over the last few days that show the band might actually be making a comeback after nine years of silence.

Recently, the band released a new album on Spotify titled, I Like Your Boobs, Will You Go to Prom with Me? on the platform — the title is a reference to one of their most popular songs Tig Ol’ Bitties. The album currently only contains nine previously released songs and none of the music that was promised in the thought to be canceled album the band announced back in 2012. The art also looks to be potentially stolen from Twitter user @saveraedae making fans question if the band’s account had simply been hacked.

However, a new channel called YFMVevo has also suddenly appeared on YouTube and is uploading videos from some of the songs on the album. The channel’s current description is, “Your Favorite Martian on Vevo – Official Music Videos, Live Performances, Interviews and more…” They also feature some of the videos that mysteriously vanished from the original Your Favorite Martian channel back in 2016 including the band’s first song My Balls.

Many fans were disappointed that Your Favorite Martian’s once promised album had never come out, especially with names like Miley Cyrus, Jonathon Davis, Snoop Dogg, and Mark Hamill attached to the project. While Johnson has continued to release new songs with his band The Upside Downs, fans are still longing for the once promised collection of songs to surface.

Is 2021 the year Your Favorite Martian finally makes its big comeback? Only time will tell. Ray William Johnson has currently not commented on the situation at this time.

Chances are that you’ve already seen one trailer for a movie starring Benedict Cumberbatch this week, with the first promo for Spider-Man: No Way Home racking up an incredible 355 million views in the first 24 hours it was available, generating plenty of buzz, hype, speculation and fan theories in the process.

While Netflix drama The Power of the Dog is only going to amass a fraction of that audience, it’s nonetheless shaping up to be one of the actor’s best-ever performances, which is no mean feat for an Academy Award nominee with a string of acclaimed roles under his belt.

Directed by The Piano and The Top of the Lake‘s Jane Campion and adapted from the novel of the same name by Thomas Savage, the plot unfolds in 1920s Montana and follows Cumberbatch’s vengeful rancher Phil Burbank. Infuriated by the arrival of his brother on the property, who brings his new wife and her son with him after her first husband passed away, there’s tension right from the outset.

Family drama, friction and no shortage of tragedy will naturally ensue, and while the footage doesn’t give away too much plot-wise, it’s packing plenty of sweeping visuals and no shortage of atmosphere. The ensemble cast is stacked with established names and rising stars like Kirsten Dunst, Jesse Plemons, Kodi Smit-McPhee and more, with The Power of the Dog having plenty of potential to be an awards season contender for Netflix when it premieres on November 17th.
