<p>Whew! People have goals to start a YouTube channel, meanwhile, birthing kids to do it for you is where the money’s at. Sike, don’t try this at home…use your nieces and nephews instead friend.</p>
<p>Anyway, while y’all figure that out, let me tell you about this 8-year-old boy who brought in a whole $26 million in 2019 alone, according to Forbes. Ryan Kaji reviews toys on YouTube and now he’s the platform’s highest earner. Ryan has 22.9 million subscribers, so basically $1 per subscriber and then some.</p>
<p>Ryan was also <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/issaminimogul-this-7-year_old-makes-22m-a-year-reviewing-toys-on-youtube/"><strong>last year’s highest earner</strong></a>, and he crushed his own record by reportedly making $4 million more this year.</p>
