Like Nastya Vlog — $258,493 per Video
Number 3 on the list goes to another kindergartener. Nastya is a Russian child YouTuber that has captured the imaginations of her 64 million subscribers with her 5 minute motivational and entertaining videos.
You won’t find toy reviews or unboxing videos, her videos cover topics like dressing up for Halloween, birthday parties, beach trips all including her partner in crime, her funny Russian American dad who most believe actually gets the popular vote.
She is most well known for her video featuring her dad and a “fun negotiation session.”
One of her 2020 highlights must have been bumping “Dude Perfect” out of the top 10 most subscribed YouTubers in March. And she takes home a hefty $18 million, a far cry from the dollars most 6 year olds are earning selling lemonade.

Dude Perfect — $301,262 per Video
Dude perfect is a group of 5 guys with impeccable aim and a college roommate vibe even though they are solidly into their 30s. But we guess no one’s complaining about their frat boy antics when they bring home more than $20 million annually. Since 2009 they have amassed a solid following of 53 million subscribers.
Each time they post their bulls-eye content they score a further $3000 thousand for the joint pot. But that’s not where the earning ends, because most of their videos are sponsored too.
Curious about this dude’s earnings? We got you covered, have a look at Dude Perfect Net Worth in 2020.

Vlad and Niki — $312,312 per Video
It seems that the Russians kids have a Midas touch when it comes to cashing in on YouTube. This Dubai based brother duo and their parents use their videos for pretend play, toy reviews, and sometimes earworm style nursery rhymes.
The most famous nursery rhyme these YouTubers have posted is “Vlad and Nikita Ride On The Bus” which is a “Wheels on the Bus” scenario in a mall with a Russian accent. 527 million views probably bought them a lot of bus tickets for future rides though.
Whatever your views are, these pre-schoolers are YouTube gold. Just their English channel has 58 million subscribers and 37.5billion views and they translate their videos into 13 languages over 15 other channels. So clearly there are parents out there that are using their video antics to calm tantrums, sooth toothing infants and pacify pre-schoolers to rack up those kinds of numbers.
Question:
What YouTuber do you think is worth their subscriber weight in gold?
