Richest YouTuber In 2017 Earned Over N5 Billion Naira By Playing Video Games

A 26-year-old British man, Dan Middleton, became the richest YouTuber for the year 2017 after he earned N5 billion by filming himself while he played video games online.
The young adult who puts footage of his videos on YouTube makes money from advertising on the videos and is classed as a professional ‘YouTuber’.
Middleton is watched by more than 16million people and his videos have been watched more than 10billion times.
He began his self made career shortly after he retired from a retail company. His illustrious career began by filming himself playing popular adventure game Pokemon, before he diverted his full attention to Minecraft (a computer animated game where players build a structure out of blocks). Dan holds the Guinness World Record for ‘most views for a dedicated Minecraft video channel’.
