Seven-year-old YouTuber Anastasia Radzinskaya, star of the Like Nastya channel, is the sixth person with the highest income in 2021 on Google’s video platform, in a list in which the other nine highest-paid YouTubers were all men, and led by MrBeast.

Jimmy Donaldson, better known by his YouTube account MrBeast, is the content creator who has obtained the highest income from the platform during the past year 2021, with 54 million dollars, as reported by Forbes magazine, which has published its top 10 highest paid youtubers of 2021.

Donalson thus succeeds ten-year-old Ryan Kaji, first in the last ranking that had been prepared and also in 2019. Kaji, which carries out toy reviews, was the channel with the highest income in 2020, with 29 million dollars, and falls in this list to the seventh position, with 27 million dollars.

Kaji is located just behind another children’s channel, that of the seven-year-old girl Anastasia Radzinskaya, known for her channel Like Nastya, which has been placed in sixth position, with 87.5 million subscribers.

Radzinskaya, who emigrated from Russia to the United States with her parents, was already present on the Forbes list of 2019 and 2020. In the first year she managed to raise 18 million dollars and placed third in the ranking, compared to 18, 5 million dollars of 2020.

Among the rest of the best-paid YouTubers on the platform, in second position is the boxer channel Jake Paul, who returns to the best-paid list after 2018 with 45 million dollars raised.

At the end of 2017, a video in which Paul and his brother Logan visited a forest in Japan known to be the site of suicides lowered his popularity.

They are followed by Markiplier, in third position with 38 million dollars, ahead of the Rhett and Link channel, fourth, and Unspeakable, fifth. The top 10 is closed by the challenges of Dude Perfect (eighth) and the channels of Logan Paul (ninth) and Preston Arsement (tenth).

The sum of the ten channels managed to exceed 300 million dollars in revenue in 2021, which is 40 percent more than in 2020, thanks mainly to the growth in views of their videos.
