Popular YouTuber PewDiePie generated $4 million in 2013
Felix Kjellberg, better known as PewDiePie, Generated the equivalent in $4 million in ad sales in 2013. The report notes that most of this revenue is profit.
 While we known for a while now that he was making tons of money, I think its save to say many would have NEVER guess this much. Wow thats insane once you think about it, Love it or hate it this is a very impressive feat that many can only dream of achieving.
Maybe I should become a lets player xD.
Ha what ive personal noticed is that the Whole "lets play" sence on youtube got HUGEEE a few years ago... EVERYONE was doing it, and out of the huge number of channels a few were about to become sccesful. Trying to make it as a lets player now, I would assume, would be hard and would need a massive amount of work to make it stand out on its on... But anything is possible!
