Hey guys!
Welcome back to Top 10 Nerd, I’m Ron McKenzie-Lefurgey.
Since it began in 2011, Twitch has become a pretty wicked platform for gamers who want
to make money playing games.
It can give anything from a monthly beer stipend to tens of thousands of dollars a month, and
that’s not to mention what streamers earn from sponsorships and YouTube.
But some streamers have taken it to a new level, and have become pretty damn rich thanks
to their personality and gaming know-how.
So get ready, it’s time for the Top 10 Richest Twitch Streamers!
Just a side note, streamers, like most people, tend to keep finances rather close to the
chest.
So this list will be talking rough estimates, based on donations and subs and sponsors and
ads and all that jazz.
I looked at several sources, and tried to find the best guesses at the net worth of
these streamers, but let me know if something looks a bit hinky.
I’m sure something will.
Feel free to correct any errors in the comment section down below!
Just remember: Pobody’s nerfect!
Number 10: Nightblue3.
Nightblue was been around Twitch for some time, and it shows.
He’s made a living streaming video games, and currently has over 2 million Twitch followers
and even more subscribers on YouTube.
Most estimates have him between 1 and 2 million dollars.
I see the number 1.3 million a lot, so let’s go with that!
Although considering his continued popularity, it seems that this number will only increase.
Number 9: Lirik.
Lirik made a name for himself playing World of Warcraft, but he really hit the jackpot
when he started playing DayZ.
With his sub count on Twitch edging ever closer to 2 million, he’s definitely bringing home
the bacon, with most sources claiming that he has a net worth of roughly 1.5 million
dollars.
Not impressed enough?
Here’s Joe Rogan reacting to seeing Lirik’s stats.
Number 8: Summit1G.
Summit1G is a Streamer and YouTuber best known for his CS:GO streams.
With over 2 million Twitch followers, and thousands of subscribers, he makes some pretty
mad bank.
There’s some disagreement about him, with estimates ranging from around 1 million dollars
to 2.5 million, but I’d say it’s probably somewhere on the higher end.
With subscriptions, and ads, and donations, not to mention YouTube and sponsorships, it’s
safe to say that he’s pretty financially secure.
Number 7: Imaqtpie.
Imaqtpie is one of the most popular league streamers ever, with almost 2 million followers.
It’s no surprise that the 7th most subscribed channel on Twitch would be rather lucrative,
and the guy’s pretty loaded.
Most net worth estimations are between 1 and 3 million dollars, which actually surprises
me.
I would have thought he was a lot more loaded, but let’s be real, a couple million dollars
isn’t exactly nothing.
And he got it with video games.
That’s the dream!
Number 6: Andy Milonakis.
Andy Milonakis is a comedian-turned Twitch streamer who you may know better as the “Super
Bowl is gay” guy.
According to therichest.com, he’s worth 3 million dollars.
Granted, this was not all from Twitch, since he’s spent years acting, rapping, writing,
and doing comedy.
“But Ron,” you may wonder, “how does he have so much experience at such a young
age?”
Well, the dude’s 41.
Yeah.
Milonakis has a growth hormone deficiency, causing him to appear much younger than he
really is.
And as you may suspect, this leads to some pretty ridiculous situations as he streams
his life.
Check him out, the dude’s funny.
Number 5: Skydoesminecraft.
Adam Dahlberg is a popular Minecraft streamer and YouTuber, making entertaining and educational
videos and streams of the game.
Net worth estimates range from 3 million to 9 million, but most tend to hover around 3.5
million dollars.
Which is pretty crazy.
However, as with most of these points, it’s hard to pin down exactly how much he has since
there are just so many hidden sources of income to consider.
Number 4: PhantomL0rd.
Here’s one case of someone using their popularity for evil.
PhantomL0rd was, and I suppose is again, a popular Twitch streamer, probably best known
for CS:GO.
According to Networthdatabase, he has a net worth of 4 million dollars.
But this isn’t clean money.
You may remember him getting super lucky on the gambling site CS:GO Shuffle, using his
platform to advertise for the site.
But then it turned out he owned the site, and made himself win to trick others into
playing.
Then he ran away with the millions he had QQ Earned QQ.
Classy.
Number 3: Markiplier.
I’ve talked about Markiplier a few times on this channel, and swooned over his honey
smooth voice, but the guy has more than a fine voice; he’s rich too.
The various net worth sites disagree a bit on just how rich, but he seems to have a net
worth of somewhere between 7 and 9 million dollars.
Which is pretty damn insane.
Now granted, it isn’t all from Twitch, with his YouTube channel taking up much of his
income, but it’s pretty darn impressive.
Number 2: Jacksepticeye.
Jacksepticeye is another streamer I’ve talked about before, and another one that I’ve
swooned over.
Although this time it was his eyes.
But all dreaminess aside, Sean McLoughlin is believed to have a net worth of roughly
9 to 12 million dollars.
He focuses more on the YouTube side of things, but he does stream from time to time as well.
It feels so dirty having so many people on here that are primarily YouTube stars, but
the jerks also stream on Twitch so they screw everything up.
These guys really make me wish I wasn’t such trash at video games.
Number 1: Pew Die Pie.
I mean…
doi.
Pretty much every list about gaming personalities will include Pewds at the top.
And it probably comes as no surprise that the king of let’s plays is rather loaded.
Pewds is somewhat different on this list since he didn’t really get rich FROM Twitch, but
he is a person who streams on Twitch, so technically he qualifies.
But how much does he have?
Well, let’s ask the fact god himself, Michael McCrudden Thanks bud.
That’s it for today!

Did I mess something up?
Does seeing how much freaking money these people make bring you rage?
Are you tired of me using every cliché in the book to avoid saying “he’s rich”
1000 times?
Let me know in the comment section down below!
With these people having so many damn sources of income, it’s pretty freaking hard to
know for sure how much they have, but this video should give SOME idea.
Until next time, I’m Ron McKenzie-Lefurgey with Top 10 nerd.
Later nerds!
