Ryan ToysReview—or simply Ryan—is a 7-year-old who reviews toys on his YouTube channel. In 2016, he made $11 million doing so, according to Forbes, making him number eight on Forbes’ “2017 Highest-Paid YouTube Stars” list, tying with Smosh.

Ryan began his career of YouTube stardom by reviewing a giant toy containing more than 100 cars about two years ago. The video currently has more than 800 million views. Now, his channel has more than 10 million subscribers, averaging 1 to 4 million views per video. In each one, Ryan sits in front of the camera and reviews new toys or food products that were sent to him.

According to a profile by The Verge in 2016, Ryan’s advertising revenue makes about one million per month due to his 10 million subscribers.

However, fame comes with the haters—his first video also has more than 400,000 dislikes along with its 700,000 likes. And people are rushing to parent this child, accusing the parents of exploitation and forcing Ryan to shoot videos. Internet trolls also comment on the sheer number of toys that Ryan receives, claiming that he’ll become spoiled.

One of the most subscribed Youtubers, PewdiePie, also accused the family of faking their billions of views by using bots—a 2017 video by Philip Defranco interviewed the family and seemed to dispel all the rumors. PewdiePie has also come under fire for racist remarks that caused his drop from being the richest YouTuber.

According to the video, the family donates most of the toys to charity and if Ryan doesn’t want to film a particular day, they respect his wishes. Sometimes, the stiffness in Ryan’s demeanor is due to off-stage direction from his parents.

From watching his videos, it just seems like a kid having fun talking about something he loves — the camera and setting don’t seem to be professional, although not bad quality either. His parents are also very present in the video — so much so that it almost seems like a vlog.

Comments are also disabled on most videos, which is sensible since people are harsh and this is the Internet.

Ryan’s family has also started another channel called Ryan’s Family Review which features more footage of the entire family and their day-to-day life along with playing games and testing out new goodies. In my opinion, it’s just a way to document the growing up process with her kids and sharing it with the world — what mom doesn’t love to brag about her children?

Ryan’s channels might be interesting to you if you’re looking to buy a new toy or if your child is looking for something to watch — I know my baby brother used to love watching Ryan review and play with different toys.

Who could live without online shopping? It’s a standard routine in so many households. Whether you’re stocking up on groceries, snagging the latest and greatest tech sensation, shopping for holiday gifts, or treating yourself to a new outfit, the convenience of buying this stuff while in your pajamas is hard to beat — at least

You’ve heard it a thousand times before. The holidays are about two things: giving and family…more specifically, giving to your family. And no one wants to be the Grinch. So we lavish gifts and good tidings on our families and friends. And it feels incredible when it comes to gift-giving — I’m insatiable. Spending on

Imagine this: you marry the man of your dreams. You have two beautiful children with another on the way. You spend your days cooking gorgeous, nutritious meals for your family…. from scratch. You get paid to share your daily life and meals with people around the world. But here’s the catch: half of those people

Experts agree: it’s time to clean your workspace for your most creative era yet Spring cleaning is overrated. In the Spring, I want to go-go-go! Not get bogged down in the minutiae of tidying. But once I get started, I’m one of those people who can’t stop decluttering. So I carve out designated days for

Despite the fact that late-stage capitalism is an amoral hellhole driven by a borderline religious belief in the sanctity of brands, we would never, ever suggest that anyone should shoplift from big-box stores, or even imply that doing so is morally okay or a victimless crime. But hypothetically, if we were to give any tidbit

The Momager May Be Worth More Than You Think… Kris Jenner is a pop culture icon for many reasons. While you may have watched her meteoric rise to fame on Keeping Up with the Kardashians — which originally debuted on E! — she’s actually been a fascinating figure in the public eye for ages.  As

In the 1980s movie Little Shop of Horrors, the protagonist Audrey fantasizes about owning a house of her very own. She doesn’t ask for much: just a simple one-storey place with a washer, dryer, and bedding will do.  And while this moment in the film is intended to satirize the American Dream by underlining how

The Kar-Jenner family is loaded thanks to their business prowess (and fierce momager, Kris Jenner.) Kim Kardashian said it best when she lamented that it “seems like nobody wants to work these days,” but these sisters never have a day off. And that’s why the topic of Kylie Jenner’s net worth is so intriguing.  But

Taylor Swift is a megastar singer-songwriter known for her narrative songwriting, catchy pop tunes, and versatility across genres like country, pop, and indie folk. She breaks every music record with ease, partially thanks to her die-hard Swiftie fans who follow her with vigor and buy out every single show. And with Taylor Swift’s net worth
