>>20060840Coco has talked about this before. They make a small salary (probably around $30k) and they get superchat money. However, when a superchat is sent, youtube takes about 30% of it. Then, the company takes 50% of that. The chuuba gets whats left. They also make money off of merch, but once again, they only get about 50% of that.
Unless the contracts have changed, they dont make any money off the VODs and all of that goes to the company. Even so, im sure that is only a small amount comparatively. I would think, knowing Rushia is the highest superchatted member of hololive, this would put her around the millionaire mark if she doesnt waste her money. The rest of them however are probably still well within 6 figures. Still not poor, but definitely not as rich as you say they are.
Also, dont forget taxes, which i dont feel like looking up the japanese federal and province income tax or whatever it goes through.
