How did Mikey Murphy Make His Money & Wealth?
Born on May 12, 1998, in New Jersey, Mikey Murphy is said to have begun talking before his first birthday. The older of two siblings, he has a younger sister named Sydney, who is also active on social media. Growing up, he enjoyed a variety of activities, one of which included karaoke. At the age of fifteen, he launched his own YouTube channel called, MikeIsAverage. Around that same time, he also joined the popular mobile app, Vine.
Not long after joining YouTube, he uploaded one of his first videos, What I Do When I Am Home Alone. To his surprise, it eventually racked up a decent amount of hits. With that, he became motivated to post more content to his channel- and as he did, his fan base grew.
From the launch of his channel until now, his popularity has risen greatly; as of March 2018, he has accumulated more than 1.5 million subscribers with over 78 million views across his videos. Known for his comedic content, some of his most popular uploads to date include People Kissing Their Crushes, People Telling Their Crush They Like Them, People Ask Their Teacher a Dumb Question, and Kissing My Ex-Girlfriend.
With the audience that he has on YouTube, it goes without saying that he likely pulls in a decent amount from his channel- but how much? On average, Google partners tend to make a few dollars per 1000 ad views. Assuming this is true, and that less than half (~40%) of his view count is monetized, he would have made anywhere from $60,000 to $150,000 before YouTube’s cut.
Aside from YouTube, you can also find the teen on platforms such as Instagram and Twitter. Prior to the shutdown of Vine in 2017, he also had over 50,000 fans on the mobile app.
If you’d like to support the muser, he has an official merchandise shop set up which you can visit here. With that said, it doesn’t look like he has many items in stock at this time.
