Earnings from other avenues

Tubbo’s account, despite having been created in 2018, earns quite a lot of money. The streamer earns around $8.5k to $11k a month, resulting in about $102k to $132k per annum. He would also be making an additional amount of money from sponsorship deals that he carries out on his channel. Despite making such a significant amount in actuality, he only posts around 3-5 videos a month.
Earnings as a Twitch Streamer
With an average of around 18k to 20k subscribers every month, Tubbo should be raking in a large amount of money; assuming all those subscribers are Tier 1, priced at $5, and with a 50-50 split between him and Twitch, Tubbo should be making $45k to $50k a month and $540k to $600k a year. This is with regards to his main channel.
On his second channel, TubboLive, the 17-year-old averages around 1.6k subscribers a month which would net him around $4k a month and $48k a year.

Other Sponsorship Deals
Tubbo has not promoted sponsored content often but he recently held an Adobe-sponsored art stream where he used Adobe Photoshop, as well as an Amazon Prime Video stream for “The Tomorrow War.” The amount he has earned from these is unknown but, due to his large internet presence and his average viewer stats per stream, he would have gained a large amount of money from these deals.
Expenditure
