So, if
Jobst gave 100% of his YouTube income to pay off the debt, it could take anywhere from
2 years to over 33 years, depending on his earnings.
Now, Karl makes a lot of Sponsorships deals, practically every video has it, but whatever they pay is not publicly disclosed, a lot of factors come into consideration, but Karl has a very healthy channel, and he gets good views, i found this
article, that seems to match with the responses i found in
r/NewTubers
Audience Size | Average Earnings Per Video |
10k – 50k subscribers | $500 – $2,000 |
50k – 200k subscribers | $2,000 – $10,000 |
200k – 1M subscribers | $10,000 – $50,000 |
1M+ subscribers | $50,000+ |
OF course, sponsorships also pay based on how much views you get, the good news is that you CANT AdBlock sponsorships, so all views count, So, Lets be REALLY generous and say that Jobst gets a fantastic
50,000 USD per raid legends sponsorship on videos that get 1 M views, Jobst would only need 5 VIDEOS to break the 1M Views barrier to pay Billy Mitchell.
This is not taking into account the money he has to pay for 10 YEARS of litigation, I'm not gonna bother assuming how much it is, and another thing to take into consideration is that Karl gets paid in AUD, not USD.
