YouTuber and Cruiserweight Jake Paul isn't afraid to challenge his rivals for whopping amounts of money. But, how can he afford it and how much money does Jake Paul make?

Similarly to his brother Logan, Jake Paul rose to fame through his Vine channel and then YouTube. With 20.4 million subscribers on the Google-owned platform as of writing, Jake has kept his viewers watching with content featuring his wild boxing career. Despite landing himself in a fair bit of controversy over the years, Jake continues to offer up mind-blowing amounts of money for a match with his rivals. 

So, what is Jake Paul's net worth? How does the YouTuber make his millions and who did he recently offer up $30 million to for an official match?

What Is Jake Paul's Net Worth?

According to Wealthy Gorilla, Jake Paul's net worth is estimated to be $17 million, as of 2022.

The days of Vine may be long gone for us old-school internet users, but Paul is still probably profiting from his former career, given how it boosted his presence when he joined YouTube. However, Twitch users are very much hoping he avoids Twitch at all costs. 

How Does Jake Paul Make His Money? 

The Paul brothers both rose to fame back in the days of Vine. By the time the platform was shut down in October 2016, Jake had amassed 5.1 million followers, the majority of which followed him onto YouTube. With the huge amount of subs he has on the platform, it's safe to say that Jake pulls in some huge paycheques at the end of each month. According to Social Blade, Jake earns anywhere up to £22.8K a month and £273.2K a year through YouTube, but that isn't his most profitable venture. 

Jake also makes a hefty amount of profit through his Cruiserweight boxing career after he started playing professionally in December 2019. The 25-year-old has already faced some intimating names in the ring but has enjoyed a great deal of success along the way. So much so, that Forbes magazine reported the Cruiserweight earned $40 million from his matches in 2021. 

Not only this, but in January 2022, Jake bought shares in UFC's parent company, Endeavour Group Holdings, which is sure to bring in some extra dollar for the champ. However, for many, it was seen as nothing more than another swipe at UFC's head honcho, Dana White.

Jake Paul Offers Will Smith And Chris Rock $30 Million For Official Match

Following on from the dramatic moment that Will Smith slapped Chris Rock during 2022's Oscar ceremony, Jake put out a tweet in which he declared he would offer the pair $15 million each to take part in an official boxing match. In the tweet, Jake said: "I got $15m for Will Smith and $15m for Chris Rock ready to go. Let's do it in August on my undercard." Although it may have been a joke, Jake isn't exactly subtle when it comes to his expensive boxing match ambitions. 

With the whopping amount of money Jake was prepared to splash on a match between Smith and Rock, it's clear he's making enough dollar to sit comfortably. As his powerful jabs and uppercuts continue to catapult him to the top, it's safe to say Jake won't have to worry too much about his finances in the near future.
