3 ways. Mike, Rich, Jay

What production costs? Aside from renting their warehouse?

You also have to factor in youtube ad revenue, merchandise sales, commentary track sales, and embedded ads on their site. They probably make around $30k a month all together.

They have enough money, post some of their videos from Patreon

>>79000086
Jack gets Pre Rec money, which is separate from RLM money. Josh is just their friend that shows up once every other month to hang out and watch shitty movies.

>>79000150
You've never interacted with a woman IRL have you?

>>79000086
Don't know how they run their business, but on Pre Rec Rich mentioned that he's employed full-time at RLM (besides video appearances he also builds the sets and does other diverse stuff), and Jack said he isn't (but he works in media production, though I don't know if as a freelancer or has a steady gig somewhere.)

Do they pay for the airfare for the Canadians? Surely it's paid out of the Patreon cash?

>>79001608

Do you want the money anon?

That's an annual salary for each of them (assuming 3) of about $50,000.

it looks like a lot to me but dollars are bigger so it's only a average teachers salary in the States. Hardly celebrity status . They must get money in other ways. or have they replaced ad revenue with patreon completely?

>>79000113
>Jack gets Pre Rec money, which is separate from RLM money
this is a complete lie. jack gets the lions share of pre rec, patreon and merch money. mike and jay are paid only for the hitb/botw episodes they edit and mike gets 100% of plinkett but 98% of that is paid to rich to license the character. Rich gets everything else.

Well, they'd also have YT ad revenue and whatever they make off merch, but Patreon would probably be the bulk of it.

Plus

>Patreon takes a 5% commission on pledges.[20]

and they still need to scrape together enough rewards and deliver them

15k isn't even a lot. Annually, split 3 ways it's 60k. Split 5 ways it's 36k. Both of those figures are before taxes, of course. BUT that doesn't even figure how much they budget for their props, space, and so on for their production.

Hopefully they were smart enough to save up for retirement(they're not), and if they haven't, they'll have to keep making content(unlikely to still be profitable) or get the McJob they should've gotten from the beginning.

>>79001987
we have social security and private-pensions

you can declare as self-employed and get a social security tax out of your income

Why is RLM so deathly afraid of planning for retirement?

Also doesn't factor in YouTube ad revenue, merchandising, etc. as was mentioned before. They're doing more than fine financially, Jay and Mike both have bought houses from their RLM money, Rich still rents and works construction because Mike pays him peanuts.

>>79001987
>They don't get to draw pension, because on paper, they never really worked.
Your wrong on multiple accounts.
First of all you're gonna get almost nothing when you retire in most western countries unless you directly pay for a pension fund while you're working, and there's nothing preventing youtubers from doing that..
Second of all, being an online "content producer" counts as an actual job in most countries as well (plus Amazon is your actual official employer if you're a partnered twitch streamer), and you have to pay taxes and everything else you would if you had a generic normal job.

>>79002293
You do realize that pension is taken from your salary every month, right?

>>79002293

And the more you work, the more you earn and the more you can put into your fund.

Do you even know how a pension is funded?

>>78999752

>>79001293
Wizard negotiated himself a few Hot Pockets for his ReView appearances.

You fuckers just made me do math.

RLM has been on YT since late September 2007. So we're looking at 112 months of them doing their thing. In that time, they've had 176,656,690 views. I know that their earlier stuff isn't going to have as many views as their newer videos, but an average of x views per month would still be a great place to start

1577291.875 views per month. 1,577,292 views per month, rounded up.

They probably earn about $8 per 1000 views in ad revenue, so that's $12618.34 that they earn each month, on the average.

Youtube takes 45% right off the top, leaving them with $6940.08.

The IRS is going to step in and take their chunk, too. Even so, at most, you're looking at about $22K that they get in revenue from Patreon and Youtube. So, after all of their production costs and rent (probably close to $2 per square foot and a minimum of 2500 square feet, so around $5K per month), they're going to get around $4K to $5K per month, each, at best.

Not exactly rolling in the money at that point.

I would expect that Jay, Mike, and Rich earn around $50K to $60K per year, before taxes, which isn't horrible for that area. Milwaukee has an average household income of about $40K. But still, it's not like they're living high on the hog.

>all these talk about how much RLM makes

You can find out exactly how much RLM reported to IRS as income last year by requesting a copy of their annual report from the Wisconsin Department of Financial Institutions.

The fee is $5.

https://www.wdfi.org/apps/CorpSearch/Details.aspx?entityID=R053590&hash=913855251&searchFunctionID=8d4cdc89-997e-436d-8875-904f1f07dcdb&type=Simple&q=Red+Letter+Media

>>79002919
the poster that brought it up was comparing RLM to a crowdfunded company that ACTUALLY scammed people

>>79002779
They had to pay for Space Cop, though. That's why it took 12 years to make (HA HA HA). Aside from that initial burst of sales, have they made much more off of it? If they had clever Hollywood accountants, they could write it off as a loss, declare bankruptcy and it'd be like they won the lottery.

I still wouldn't consider them to be rolling in the dough. If they set up their own studio space, cut out paying rent, and instead rented out their newly owned space to other local filmmakers, then that'd probably reduce their overhead.

But of course, all of that pales in comparison to those dirty Marvel Studios paychecks. Fucking sell-outs.

They're paying $140/mo ($70 per person for businesses) for Adobe Creative Cloud.

>>79003571
I know they used to use FCP7 and they use iMacs (Ben Hurt video). FCPX would be sufficient for them; I'm surprised they would switch given the cost difference. (FCPX probably performs faster on macOS too.)

>>79003165

Yeah but there are two of them, and they both enjoy editing.

It would be understandable if RLM was just a part time gig they did in their free time for shits and giggles, but it's not.

Even if the BTOW take longer to edit, they should be pumping out Half in the Bag like crazy. With Re:View they don't even have to go to the theatres.

>Because the permavirgin autists that obsess over RLM know that they themselves are not charismatic or likeable enough to gain a following talking about movies and will have to continue working some soul-crushing job for the rest of their lives, so the jealousy and bitterness sets in and they spend their days shitposting on /tv/.

will they ever recover?
