That's wild, though I wonder if that video is an outlier case. I assumed even Phil was making at least $3 CPM based on the amount of ads Youtube crams into videos. Combining his main channel and dspreacts takes him slightly above 500,000 monthly views. As for Patreon, graphtreon showed him making $330 off of 35 patrons back in December 2023. I just wanted to ballpark what Phil makes/expects to make this year, which is:
$300 beggar's tax x 6 days/week = $1,800
$1,800 x 52 weeks = $93,600
est. 500,000 views/month at $3 CPM = $1,500
$1,500 x 12 months = $18,000
est. $300/month Patreon = $3,600
It seems like if he can keep the incessant begging and drama going he'll make close to $120,000 this year.
