Trisha Paytas Reveals Jaw-Dropping YouTube Income She Made in a Week

Trisha Paytas Celebrates "Butt Doctor" Removing Her Hemorrhoid With Luxury Gift to SelfTrisha Paytas is just raking in the money off her kitchen floor. After all, the Just Trish podcast host revealed the most money she’s earned from her YouTube channel in a single week. "This week was a good week," Paytas said on the Nov. 10 episode of Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen alongside fellow guest Hailey Glassman. "Maybe $100K." Since joining the platform in 2007, the 38-year-old—mom to kids Malibu, 4, Elvis, 2, and Aquaman, 15 months, with husband Moses Hacmon—admitted that her income has always fluctuated, especially after growing her family. "It changes so much," she explained to Polyester Zine in 2023. "Before I was married, I'd wake up and I'd be filming five videos a day or something like that. Then when I got pregnant, I had a very easy schedule–I was just doing like ASMR, whatever felt good that day. But I really hustled right before I gave birth."In fact, she was juggling content for OnlyFans–which she posted on from 2020 to 2023–her podcast, as well as ASMR and lifestyle videos on her main channel and other social media accounts. "I was doing that three or four days a week and I had my husband to help me so he would set up all the shots," Paytas recalled. "When I was doing it myself it was just literally just in my car or on my floor or something. Even after she was born I was filming in the hospital, after the hospital, I really hustled." "Because that's a flow too, popularity, money, everything like that," she emphasized. "So there was a time when I was posting every single day making $100,000 versus a time I was posting every single day making $8,000." And depending on the platform, Paytas has shifted gears on her content. As she put it, "When something is good I just focus on it."Monica Schipper/Getty ImagesBut the influencer knows that sometimes, you have to spend money to make money. Take, for instance, her highly produced movie recreations, like her October rendition of “Scream” from High School Musical 3 as Zac Efron's Troy Bolton. "If I had $50,000 in my account, that's what I would spend on a video and then the amount kept going up," she explained to British Vogue in 2024. However, she also admitted, "I never saved before 2020 really. Over the course of 10 years, I've spent over $12 million." There's also a cost to making your name by going viral. "Be prepared for backlash for the rest of your life," Paytas added. "Going viral is cool because you can make a lot of money, but it'll stick with you forever."
