First off, let’s give a big round of applause to those 50 million views and 3.2 million watch hours in 2021. If you had a dollar for each view, you could buy an island and start your own country. We’d call it “Viewtopia,” where the national bird is the ‘Subscribe’ button and the official dance move is ‘Scrolling Down to Comment.’

Video mentioned: How Much YouTube Paid Me For 50,000,000+ Views!
Speaking of subscribers, 400,000 of you gorgeous individuals took the leap of faith and clicked that Subscribe button. To put that in perspective, if each of you were a Lego brick, we could build a life-size replica of the Eiffel Tower. Now that’s a subscription I wouldn’t mind stepping on!
Let’s talk about YouTube Shorts fund – that paltry sum of $244.29. Yup, you heard it right, that’s roughly the price of a mid-tier gaming keyboard. It’s like going fishing for hours and coming back with a goldfish, not the catch of the day, but hey, it’s still a fish.
And then we took that goldfish and, with some desktop view magic, turned it into $1,205. That’s a tidy sum, enough to buy about 603 cups of fancy, overpriced coffee. You know, the kind with the foam art that’s too pretty to drink but you do anyway because you paid $2 for it.
Next, the transactional revenue of $418.65. That’s approximately 83.73 burritos. Yes, I calculated that. Not sure why we didn’t just make a channel about burritos. Easy content, easy life, right?
And then we got $8,764 from YouTube Premium revenue, which is roughly the cost of 16 brand new PS5 consoles. That’s almost enough to satisfy the demand… almost.
And now for the meaty part – ad revenue. Let me just pull out my wizard hat and crystal ball as we dive into the mystical world of RPMs and estimated earnings. The numbers change faster than a chameleon in a bag of Skittles. We start off in January with $29,880, just enough to buy a decent car – no cupholders though.
Skipping forward, we arrive at December with a whopping $39,202, enough to buy a tiny house – with cupholders. Just remember to declare it on your tax forms, unless you want an unscheduled visit from the IRS.
By the way, let’s not forget our sponsor Thinkific. They’re like that cool aunt who always gives you candy when mom’s not looking. Well, instead of candy, it’s tools for creating awesome online courses. But let’s face it, in today’s world, knowledge is sweeter than candy.
After all this, our total estimated revenue for the year was a cool $389,481, just shy of a Lamborghini Huracan. But hey, who needs a flashy sports car when you have a thriving YouTube channel? Just kidding, we’d totally take the Lamborghini.

Yo, how much green does YouTube drop for a mil views? On the real, creators might be pocketing anywhere from $1,200 to $6,000. It ain’t set in stone, though – where you’re at and if peeps are watching those ads in full makes a big difference.
