This 8-Year Old Earns $1.3 Million a Year

This is Evan. He's 8 years old. He earns more money than you and I do. In fact, he earns more money than we ever will.

Is that depressing? Wait--I'm not finished yet.

Evan earns that money by playing with toys, reviewing them, then posting his thoughts on YouTube. For example, here he is trying out a LEGO Ghostbusters kit:

His YouTube channel earns $1.3 million a year. He doesn't get to keep all of that, of course. There are production expenses. But Evan's father invests what's left in a fund for Evan and his siblings.

So, clearly, I should quit my job and make YouTube videos. Then I'll get rich!
