Forget your five-year or 10-year salary goals – we’re never going to match these kids who are said to be earning millions of pounds and all before the age of 16.
Jealousy is not a good look but we are rocking the green today after a published Rich List reported the highest-earning child influencers around the world.
And they’re all apparently raking in at least six figures.
Ryan Kaji, known on YouTube as @RyanToysReview, is said to be worth £17.7 million at the age of just seven – yes you read that right – four years after his parents started the channel which featured their young son reviewing toys.
It now has 21.5 million subscribers and he also posts educational videos and science experiments, while all toys are later donated to charity,
Second on the list is 16-year-old Kyle Giersdof, the Fortnite World Cup winner whose estimated worth is £2.6 million.
Six-year-old Everleigh Rose Soutasis is third on the list with an alleged net worth of £1.8 million.
Everleigh has over four million Instagram followers and 2.8 million YouTube subscribers who watch her unbox toys.
The youngest influencers on the top 10 list are three-year-old twins Taytum and Oakley Fisher who have a reported net worth of £880,000.
Perhaps the most famous on the list is 16-year-old Sophia Grace Brownlee.
Sophia Grace rose to fame back in 2011 at the age of eight when her cover of Nicki Minaj’s Super Bass went viral on YouTube and landed her a guest appearance on Ellen.

The list was compiled by ChildCare.co.uk which analysed data to reveal the list of the highest-paid child influencers on social media, including YouTube and Instagram.
‘Influencers are some of the most powerful people in modern society, and despite their young age, the children on this list prove they can make millions through their audiences,’ said Richard Conway, founder of Childcare.co.uk.
‘As a parent, I’ve seen first-hand the impact kids have today, through social media sites like YouTube, Instagram and Twitch. With most children now wanting to grow up to become online stars we wanted to see just how much money child influencers can make.
‘Perhaps parents will look at this and see YouTuber as a viable career choice for their children!’
