This 6-Year-Old Boy Is Making $11 Million Per Year And We’re All Envious Of His Job

ADVERTISEMENT

Most people don’t enjoy their jobs, and most people don’t get paid very much either, but Ryan isn’t most people. He’s an internet star making $11 million per year by reviewing toys on YouTube, and the craziest part is that he’s only six years old.

He’s the presenter of Ryan ToysReview, an online channel with over 10 million subscribers, and according to Forbes he was the joint eighth highest paid YouTuber last year after raking in $11 million in pre-tax income. He started the channel in 2015 when he was just four years old, and since then he’s racked up billions of views which have generated some massive revenue for the youngster. His channel became a hit after his Giant Egg Surprise video went viral (it’s been viewed over 800 million times), and now he’s so popular that his mom Loann, a former science teacher, has quit her job to work on his account full time. Jealous much? We certainly are.

    “He loves making videos,” said his mom. “Every time I tell him we’re going to film, he gets so excited”

    I'm a teenager but I feel old because I don't really get the whole hype behind it? No hate, but why?

    Well, honestly, it makes a lot more sense to me than all the cats craze. But who cares? Let's just enjoy. As long as it's harmless and inoffensive...

    Congrats. I make less than 50k a year to repair machines. I feel like I am losing at life... Maybe I should make videos on YouTube

    Really many people have tried to become a YouTube star but failed miserably. Usually you have to get over 500,000 subscribers before you can quit your old job and that also usually requires help from Patreon and other similar websites.

    I wish all the best to the kid but if he is really making £11,000,000 a year then f**k me i have been doing something wrong in my life. I find it hard to believe he makes that, he is just making videos of toy reviews, loads of people on youtube are doing that. This makes me kind of sad as well because so many other places need money and £11,000,000 is going to some little brat and his parents. Maybe im just jealous but i don't believe its that much.
