Given the way YouTube, sponsorships, and Patreon works, I’d say this type of speculation has no merit.Given his job status, moving, lack of content, and the amount of times he has moved, I'd say that type of speculation has merit.

They get 5-10k averaging 50-100k views? 10$ a view from athletic greens and better help YouTube ads?Pretty much every video is sponsored and based on his viewcount he probably charges 5k-10k per sponsored video. That is not even taking into account google adsense revenue. Plus I'm sure his parents would help him financially in case anything bad happens.
Yep, the worse the ads the better they pay. Hello Fresh which is pretty well known and established was paying 50$ per 1000 views, these lesser known brands pay even better.They get 5-10k averaging 50-100k views? 10$ a view from athletic greens and better help YouTube ads?
People are doomed to repeat their mistakes, I guess.
Going to California to be "creative". If you are able to take advantage of your parents' providing for you, more power to ya. His content, for me, has become quite boring and Ethan just looks like he does not take showers. Quite interesting, lol! But I wish them both luck. They definitely still have followers.
As someone with middle/ upper middle class parents, I can assure you he's not rich or being bankrolled.
It is pretty normal for people in the middle to upper middle classes to get some help with rent, get tuition paid for, get help with down payments on homes or cars etc. It is just that tho.
If Mark couldn't afford to live his life or if his parents thought he wouldn't be able to, they would not be supporting his career and would be nagging him non stop to get a traditional career.
I agree with the quip about his "creativity" tho. Lets be so fucking real... he's a fucking blogger who records himself walking his dog, interacting with strangers, and making food. Worse even, that's been his content for the last five years. There is ZERO CREATIVITY in that. Matter a fact, I can name exactly ONE video Mark has made since he started on YouTube that had an ounce of creativity. Obviously, he has some video editing skills but it doesn't surpass that of any other YouTube influencer who doesn't self-identify as a "filmmaker."
Mark is the equivalent of pyramid scheme MLM lady on facebook with entrepreneur in all of their bios. I need him to stop pretending like he's fucking Benicio Del Toro, and just own the fact that he's famous because the gay community was desperately lacking in masculine representation in 2013.
Don't even get me started on Ethan... With all of his holier than thou "artsy" only fans discourse. Tbh him, Kyle Krieger, and all the other has been YouTubers who are clearly not 100% confident with being sex workers, and have to add an illusionary element of "artistry" to help them feel better about themselves.

Being broke and having an income + support from parents are two different things.Yes, Mark makes a quite a bit off of his YouTube channel and Patreon. You’d have to be dense to think he’s broke.

You just sound like you’re projecting.Being broke and having an income + support from parents are two different things.
And there is nothing wrong with getting bank from your parents. Why not take advantage of that if your parents have the means and are willing to give? I am just interested to see how these people do when they reach retirement age.
Y'all, this is a site about hot guys and thirsting over them. You can find somewhere else to post your episodic rants and your thesis.
If you don't like them or have nothing nice to say about them, you're not supposed to be posting on their thread(s).

Dude, i don't even know if it's still up. .. I searched YouTube and couldn't find it. Pretty sure it was a short that both of them created called "The Box" or something. Now that I think about, I think Ethan and Mark even shot a fan made music video for Oh Wonder. This was back in like the 2013-2015 era, and yeah both were pretty low quality college film student level, but I think if they'd grown in that direction instead of falling victim to the gay influencer pimping their relationship out on YouTube trope, they may have actually had great film careers. They fumbled their career opportunities.Wait! Which video is the ONE??? Link please!
Perhaps I am? Dunno. Though I certainly did accept funds from my parents throughout the years. I just didn't use them as perhaps as odd as he does. Again, not trying to judge. Just an interesting dynamic.You just sound like you’re projecting.
