here are the rich life we typically bring you videos of football players
rappers CEOs and the rest who are grabbing a bag but Shane Dawson is
actually an undercover hypebeast himself what's up all you poor little children
y'all ready to see my whip having spent well over a decade producing content
online well Shane Dawson has amassed for himself his own little fortune but he's
surprisingly good at laying low and staying humble in fact he might actually
be the most Awkward celebrity we've ever featured in this series
at this love amor love um Shane Dawson he's
become one of the biggest online personalities in the game he's changed
the way that creators make content for YouTube and the way that we consume
entertainment he's also the poster boy for
authenticity and proof that everyday people can climb to the top of the world
of entertainment I mean he went from making skits for his own amusement to
making long form docu-series videos that are receiving millions and millions of
views overnight now in the last year he's covered controversial figures
including Jake Paul of course there was panna WatchMojo Eugenia Cooney and most
recently for the second time good old Jeffrey star while Jeffrey star may have
a beautiful life with all of his YouTube success well Shane's been able to build
a pretty rich life for himself although it's something he generally well he
likes to hide Shane we're sick of Shane acting poor like I can pour around
Geoffrey I am poor around I just have never been that smart with like
investing money I've never been a smart businessperson well you're not a money
driven person Shane's got himself an LA mansion in
Calabasas that's sitting on to 2.85 acres of ranch property
now the spanish-style main house was built back in 1989 and it features a
pool six beds four baths and it even has a farm in the backyard so that pig on
his shirt well you can also have one Oh back I got the pigs in the back but
number one this is not like some crazy whatever house this is like it's not it
looks big but it really isn't display what he says well it kinda is no he was
also able to buy his dream car oh sorry sorry no that's that's not the one
whoops wrong car again never getting closer
there it is yeah he's got a green Jeep now he recently also spent some cash on
a good ol engagement ring for his boyfriend of three years and now fiance
Rylan Adams and the top of all this well it appears that he's got a serious diet
root beer addiction and that probably sets him back a few stacks each month
according to online reports Shane Dawson he is a net worth of around 12 million
dollars and with over twenty two point five billion subscribers on the site
well I think that's probably a low estimate I mean his latest video it's
received close to 15 million views in just a few days although in that video
well Shane he tries to sell us on the idea that he's not even very rich at all
like I grew up poor and then I started YouTube and then the money like slowly
you know progressed but even now it's not like I'm doing like a million dollar
checks or like I'm not bad baby I'm not signing like million dollar deals or you
might not be making Danielle bergoglio egg but your man Shane Dawson has done
mighty well for himself I'll explain a little more in this video what's going
on guys it's boy Michael cretin taking you through the financial come up of
Shane Dawson here for you of course on the rich life now recently we've covered
trippy red lil uzi Burt and CJ so cool in this series and comparing those dudes
the shane dawson well it reminds me of the old Sesame Street song you know this
one yeah big birds probably gonna go and claim this video now now if you like
this series be sure to check out our playlist for the rich life here on this
channel also let us know who's next in the comments down below and we'll be
sure to get her done for you alright let's get into this video
all right first up we got to do a little bit of a recap now Shane Dawson he was
born Shane yeah on July 19 1988 in Long Beach California
shout out to Snoop Dogg that was childhood it was anything but easy
his father was an alcoholic and Shane he was seriously overweight now this led to
some relentless bullying now finally Shane he decided to sign up for Jenny
Craig's weight loss program where he shed all types of pounds and he actually
got a job working at his local Jenny Craig store where he became the manager
now sporting an emo haircut and a fresh new figure well he began pursuing his
dream of becoming a traditional Hollywood star he was an actor he would
actually go to auditions but after some time he shifted in his ambition into
building his first YouTube channel shanedawsontv now there Shane he would
post sketches that included some pretty offensive characters but some of his
early work did go viral earning him a large subscriber base from there on out
he kept growing his channel and innovating his content over the last 14
years or so today is one of the largest channels on the platform and checking
out his social blade well Shane's channel has been pulling in on average a
hundred million views a month over the past three years and every time he posts
the video well it typically clocks in around 10 million views now I decided to
pump his main channel into a generic YouTube money calculator and they pegged
his monthly income at around 150 grand with him earning nearly three hundred
thousand dollars per video damn I'm like earning 1% of that and
that's just this main channel now the original one it's got another billion
lifetime views and Counting no Dodson has multiple revenue sources
besides YouTube he recently started to get some in video sponsors he's written
books he's got a podcast or he did and he's been in films and TV shows he's
also produced a few shows of his own but Shane has admitted that he's never
really been well a business minded guy but having friends in high places is
allowing him to change all this and he has plans on launching his own eyeshadow
palette with jeffree star cosmetics Shane Dawson is getting into makeup and
according to Geoffrey Starr he's good at it he may be poor compared to Geoffrey
star but he's definitely not poor compared to the majority of the world
now although Shane he seems to compare himself a lot to other
youtubers he actually well recently stated this like all these youtubers who
started after me it is embarrassing like like when I look at that Forbes list and
I look at like Lilly Singh markiplier all these people I litter I'm so not
most to that but it's like crazy like I'm so I'm like if there if I was on
that list I would be like in like the bottom thousand do you know I mean I
mean he did appear in the 2010 Forbes list as the 25th most famous web
celebrity so that's not really you know the bottom thousand but whatever with
over five billion views it's easy to assume that Shane has pulled in at least
ten million bucks off his main channel alone and likely he's earned a lot more
than that so now we know where the money's coming from so let's take a look
at how Shane spends his millions that roll back the clock a few years in Shane
he was living in a 1.7 million dollar studio city mansion that was 2,200
square feet with three bedrooms three bathrooms and it had a swimming pool and
spa now it was a secluded home that was built way back in 1953 in 2018 it was
time for him and Rylan to make the move to a three million dollar mansion in the
hills of Los Angeles and apparently it's got a Calabasas zip code but it lies
somewhere on the outskirts of the city boundaries this mountain right here is
literally one of my favorite parts of the entire house and when you can see
that a mountain is your favorite part of the house well you're doing pretty good
for yourself I mean they have a full-on farm in the back like my boys crack I
don't know about that pig in the back this is where we're gonna get you some
goats everybody the house of course it has a backyard pool to the other side of
the farm area is our little actual backyard pool area / fireplace
they have a patio that looks like it's straight out of resort seriously take a
look at this I feel like I've been there I feel like on vacation too like Mexico
I'm there and I fall on the couch and oh my baby I'll allow it I'm sleeping on
the floor I don't know what would you call it a terrace the place you'll find
me never because it's outside but I'm gonna look at it from they also have a
movie theater which was under construction at the time of the video
but apparently Shane he's pretty excited I think we just have to knock this wall
liner is like better in the theater I think little tables but you're like food
and like all of that and it's not actually that expensive which I'm
excited about the master bedroom is massive with a fireplace and sitting
area there's a bathroom with dual vanities a glass shower and a soaking
tub there's also a walk-in closet now in total the house at boasts six beds and
four baths no back at the old cripple Shane he had only one item hanging in
his closet
those are like towels so that shared and he hasn't filled up any of these things
I'm gonna say the one thing he has are these valencies LEM shoes there well
they cost around $700 per pair so that one item is more expensive than a lot of
people's closets and more recently Shane he's got an upgrade in his fashion game
with a whole new line of Gucci and some jeffree star items upgrade
he's also been spotted of course where some Gucci flip-flops now it hasn't been
all wild groupie er parties for the boys though now shortly after moving into
their new place well the couple they had to evacuate due to the California
wildfires he also bought himself his dream car which unlike some other
youtubers isn't a Lambo or a Benz or a Tesla it's actually a green Jeep Rubicon
in an Instagram post he stated today I got a car that I've been dreaming of
since I was six years old a green Jeep it might not be bougie and it might be
used but I don't care it's my baby and I love her so much this car isn't even
like any buddies dream car except my I have
wanted a green Jeep since I was a kid I always thought they were so cool they
reminded me of Jurassic Park I wanted to like go drive on mountains and like make
rocks that's a lie I literally just wanted to go through like a Taco Bell
drive-thru and take the fucking roof off and be like throw the chalupa a bit now
I got no idea what the exact maker model of this bad boy would cost but seeing as
it's used blood estimates that he spent between 10 to 20 grand now it's actually
cheaper than his previous car which of course was a Prius I told you the dude
is an undercover hype beast so I guess Shane he might blow his money on some
stupid stuff but one thing we definitely know that he's not spending his money on
his pizza at Chucky Cheese you know because the whole reuse thing I actually
went there to check it out and Shane he liked my photo he's actually been loving
a lot of my tweets so Thank You Shane I appreciate that and I put on some weight
myself so I feel like we got a little connection maybe we should film a video
doing some cardio I think it'll go viral but on your channel I'm on all right
