An Eight 8year old kid has the world’s best
job. He rakes in hundreds of thousands of dollars while doing what all
kids do playing with toys. He is the face of EvanTubeHD, a
family-friendly YouTube channel that reviews toys and video games. His videos regularly exceed a million views and the channel earns him
an amazing $1.3 million a year.
This is one of those internet success stories that make you
wonder, “Why didn’t I think of that?” It started out as a playful
project between Him and his father they would make stop-motion
videos using clay models of Angry Birds. “When we started, we were
making about a video per month as a fun little project,” Jared recalled.
“It was interesting to see who was tuning in.”
The videos were so cute that they started to get really
popular, and when their first video hit 1 million views, Jared realized
how huge it was getting. It wasn’t long before the channel became a
serious business model. “By doing toy reviews that are a bit ‘out of the
box’, we try to provide information about the product as well as have
that creative flair,” he said.
