I think a lot of YouTubers fell in the trap that they always have to please their audience
no matter what, and that that should be their main goal and, and that's the kind of YouTubers
that end up becoming sort of slaves to themselves and their own content and eventually it just
leads to the demise of their channel because after a while people aren't gonna be interested
anymore. If you're a Minecraft channel and...
What the hell is he talking about?
Uh oh.
Ouch.
Yikes...
Oh my God! We're going under. There's only one person who can help us! Well that's me,
but I'll use PewDiePie by making an updated The Rich Life video.
This is gonna be the most boring episode of The Rich Life.
Let's just watch and see what
he says that we have...
PewDiePie has become one of the most dominant forces in the the online creator community,
and has created one of the biggest platforms in media history. Now speaking of the numbers,
PewDiePie is the biggest YouTuber in the game.
And while his online empire continues to grow, he keeps racking in more and more M’s in
real life. That’s “M” for millions, not billions. Sorry…
Because he's made billions and millions of do... What? Did he just say billions and millions?
But that money should allow Felix to live comfortably for the rest of his life, because
the guy lives a pretty humble lifestyle. Besides a couple of cars and pets that we covered
in our last video, well PewDiePie only likes to spend money on the things that are most
important to him, like investing money into a brand new home studio for video production.
There's also a massive engagement ring for his beautiful fiance,
trips around the world, and making sure he has the most comfortable chair in the game...
But can you do this??
Now, PewDiePie did a reaction to our Before They Were Famous video and our The Rich Life
video on him, the first one wasn't all great.
Felix recalled that there was.. hmm.. Felix recalled..
I just wanna say.. I duh...
Now, if you’re watching this one Felix, I'm sorry for copying your haircut.
Damn.
Damn that's depressing to think about isn't it?
Now, in our original The Rich Life video, I guessed that PewDiePie's net worth was around 50 million
dollars
Totally random guess by Michael McCrudden.
Well, if it comes from Michael McCrudden's mouth, it has to be truth.
but that was back in July of 2017. This time Felix did our work for us and he looked up
his own net worth:
What is PewDiePie's net worth?
Okay, this one says 20 million. Okay. I would say it's
definitely more than that.
Today we’re going to take a look at PewDiePie’s financial come up and what he’s recently
spent his money on besides Whiskey, in fact I heard he's called it quits on drinking alcohol
altogether. Not a bad idea, I should probably do the same, one kid the other day, he called
me the Fat God.
Yeah..
Some people are just cruel.
What’s going on guys? It’s your boy Michael McCrudden here for you on The Rich Life and
today we’ll be taking a look at The Rich Life of YouTube’s golden child, good ol'
PewDiePie. Now we’ve done a rich life video on him before, but since so much has happened
with his career over the past few years well, we decided it was a good enough time as any
for an update. Other recent uploads include Mr. Beast and Liza Koshy but we need your
suggestions on who to do next. How about PewDiePie's new BFF Elon Musk?
Hi Felix
Like with every The Rich Life video, we’ve got a question for you now and you’ll have
to stick around until the end to find out the answer:
Today’s question is:
What is the world’s most expensive Lasagna?
Aright, now let's get into this video:
Since we’ve done 3 before they were famous videos on the man plus a The Rich Life, well,
we'll save you the biography and you can go check up any of those videos for his full
story, but just so we don’t have to go through the whole thing again, I will start by pronouncing
PewDiePie’s full name correctly for the very first time:
I'm so excited. Let's watch.
Felix Kjellberg.
Was it as easy as it looked? Kjellberg. No sir.
Kjellberg. Kjellberg.
Felix
Kjellberg.
Okay everybody, that's a wrap.
Kjellberg.
PewDiePie recently did his bi-annual Google of himself and we learned a lot about his life
PewDiePie a Swedish YouTuber, comedian and video game player. I'm a video game player.
Not a gamer, I'm a video game player thank you very much.
PewDiePie’s YouTube career has seen a lot of ups, and a lot of controversy, but through
all of that, he's become a household name. Most recently, he has been involved in the
most intense subscriber battle in YouTuber history. Him and T-Series have been going
back and forth and the community has been rallying around PewDiePie to try and keep
him in the number one spot.
Currently he is sitting at 92 million subscribers and over 20 billion views but that number goes
up every minute, so don’t get mad at me if the numbers are a little off right now.
But even though he is behind in subscribers at the time of this recording, one thing he
is not losing, is his YouTube money.
How much does PewDiePie make a day? By Forbes' estimate, he receives 12 million in 2015.
According to the Money Nation this helped increase his net worth to 68 million. Very
old data isn't it? If PewDiePie were working by the hour, well
he would have an insane salary
3,400 dollars per hour? Not bad for a university dropout.
And while PewDiePie says he made the decision not to do huge corporate brand deals
I'm pretty sure I am not the richest YouTuber. Uhhh.. I don't do these sort of mega deals.
He still does have a lot of sponsorship deals and ads in his videos with companies like
Origin PC and G Fuel and we must imagine he makes quite a bit of money off of these deals.
Fraghero.com reported that PewDiePie made 250 thousand dollars from doing a deal with
the Swedish company HappySocks, but that was back in 2016
I got my own socks!
And according to celebritynetworth.com, he charges an estimated 450,000 dollars for every
sponsored video, as of 2018. So the number is probably even higher as of right now.
PewDiePie also continues to make a killing in the merch game. Last time we took a look
at PewDiePie’s merch line, well he was completely sold out of all items except for fidget spinners
haha! I love how.. That's the only thing you can buy in my merch right now, you can buy
a f***ing fidget spinner.
But… I’ve actually yet to receive my own fidget spinner, so if you have any left please
uh... you know... send them on over… While the fidget spinning trend might be complete,
the need to fidget, it still remains…
give me your address, I will send you all the fidget spinners you need baby.
As of today, his Merch store is packed with a lot more than just fidget spinners, he’s
got an entire line up of clothing that includes, hats, jackets, sweaters, shirts and more.
And on shoppewdiepie.com, you have a choice between two different items. His Swedish meatball
dinner which is currently sold out… although I think Ikea is selling a similar one. And
his Swedish meatball shirt for 28 dollars. Man, one day I would love to eat Pewdiepie's
meatballs while wearing his meatball shirt… that sounded weird.
Gay. And there's nothing
wrong with that.
He has also made nearly 42 million in merchandise. What? No way!
Felix also teamed up with Marzia on a new Japanese inspired line known as Tsuki which
is Japanese for moon. And uh, these are unisex clothing and home products that are ethically
made.
Aright, so we know there are quite a few streams of revenue for Felix but what does he spend
his money on? Well he says he tries not to spend too much!
In a way I try to live modestly. 'Cause obviously I don't but con.. in considering how much
I make, I try to live modestly because I don't wanna... I wanna just live a normal life,
I don't wanna.. the money to change my life.
But there are a few things that he’s spent some cash on over the past few years that
have made an impact in his life. First and foremost, he invests a lot of money he earns,
right back into his craft. His home studio where he creates the magic is pretty expensive...
This is not a beast. This is a monster.
No not that kind of magic.
Cool, does anyone else want me to be here just to explain the jokes for everyone?
First and foremost, his computer, which was made for him by his sponsor Origin PC, so
I’m guessing that he didn’t have to pay for it. But in terms of the specs, well, they’re
worth quite a buch. Quite a bit? Quite a mu.. quite.. They're worth quite a bit. f...
Ahhh
This is the Mona Lisa of computers, guys.
Okay?
The ASUS Prime X299 is worth anywhere between 300 and 800 dollars
His CPU, it'll cost you around 2,000 dollars to buy online.
His RAM, well that will cost you between 500 to 1000 bucks… and I'm not talking about
the animal. You mess with the bull you get the horns..
okay, good. good one.
His GPU, which costs 1,300 dollars on Amazon His M2 Drive, which is only 150 bucks via
Amazon And of course, his monitors. Now, he has 3
ASUS Curved Gaming Monitors that go for around 800 dollars each.
Very nice.
Then we have the keyboard for about 100 bucks, a mouse for 60, a mousepad for 23.99, a mic
and a mic arm which go for about 1000 dollars combined, Headphones for
you can't find these anywhere because we sell them on the website but you can fi.. I mean
you can find them. You can, you should find them.
Our investigative research team found them in the description to the video, and they
go for about 100 bucks… Yeah you can’t get anything past us Felix!
Plus his green screen that drops down and his lighting
More greenish tone. But it works! It works pretty well.
And the sensors for VR that go for around 500 bucks online
His camera, which is 1,300 dollars and on top of that, well Felix, he is a collector
of art. His Kaws figurines that sit on a shelf in his room, they are hard to miss. And to
have famous artists' work on your shelf will cost you around 500 dollars each.
But sorry PewDiePie, you’re still not on Swizz Beatz level just yet...
And how could we forget the infamous PewDiePie chair which costs $399 to buy online
why is PewDiePie's chair so expensive. Ha ha ha.. it's a high quality chair, with Italian
leather and fashion.
Now if you add all of that up together, it will cost you billions and millions of dollars…
he definitely said billion.
But for real, the setup in that room adds up to around 10 thousand dollars and it most
likely costs more, with all them fix-ins
But PewDiePie does like to have a work life balance… and, he loves to travel all over
the world with his girl.
And eventually, his ultimate goal, is to buy a house in Japan.
And have enough to uh, be able to sustain myself for the future.
Alright, we decided to do some last minute research and look up how much a house costs
in Tokyo. The average price for a newly constructed house in the western suburbs of Tokyo is 42,000,000
yen, which is around 400,000 like American... I'm guessing. Sounds cheap. I'm sure he's
gonna get something a little nicer than that.
Plus, it looks like he spent a pretty penny on an engagement ring for the love of his
life! And she deserves it.
While PewDiePie mostly just rocks his own merch, he occasionally likes to drop some
cash on expensive hypebeast clothes like this Supreme hat…
That is some hot Suprem.
I guess it was Suprem and not Supreme, but he did recently buy a pair of Y3’s and for
resale, well they'll cost anywhere between 200 and 500 bucks.
But for the most part, PewDiePie doesn’t like super popular high end clothing brands…
I remember back in, eh, when I was young, everyone in Sweden had these stupid Canadian
Goose jackets that cost like at least a grand. And I remember, if you go to the.. if you
went to like the shady neighbourhoods in Sweden they'd literally tear that s*** up.
I recently got a Canada Goose vest, so it looks like I won’t be going to Sweden anytime
soon.
He also spends some money on his tattoos! Speaking of, if this video gets to 10 million
views, I’ll let PewDiePie choose what tattoo I get for myself... please say Fact God, and
not Fat God.. Please.
Take THAT!!!!
And despite what all of the major media outlets will have you believe, Felix and his fans
have he raised an insane amount of money for charities all over the world. More than a
million dollars have been raised over the course of the years from Felix’s initiatives.
I think it's important to note though that a .. I think a lot of people think “oh,
if I only had money, then it would solve all these problems for me” when it's not really
true.
And of course, he bought T-Series some Lasagna, which according to Google cost between 10
to 20 bucks depending on the grocery store you go to, but the most expensive lasagna
in the world is actually 100 dollars, it has diamond and gold in it
I dunno.
There’s the answer to your question and that’s it for this video. Of course my name
is Michael McCrudden, The Fact God, and let us know who'll be next on The Rich Life. I
got a good feeling it's gonna be Elon Musk. Please, I hope so. Also, Pewdiepie, when you
gonna buy a Tesla? Be creepin' you on Instagram bro. I'm waiting. Alright, see you guys in
another video. BOOM!
Well said.
