It has been over a decade since the Paul Brothers started their journey. Many fans don’t know that before YouTube the duo were trending stars on the social video site, Vine, where Jake Paul had 5.3 million followers. The pair started their YouTube channel when the site shut down and they moved to LA. ‘The Problem Child’ even dropped out of high school to support his older brother Logan Paul during the move.
It has been 11 years since and the pair has not looked back. Logan Paul has made a career out of YouTube and has ventured into several business ventures including Prime Hydration alongside KSI, Lunchly alongside Mr.Beast, and is a contracted WWE wrestler now. Jake Paul is not far behind as he has branched out beyond YouTube and has become a professional boxer now. A few months ago, he defeated legendary Mike Tyson in one of the most streamed boxing fights ever. He also has several business ventures including the likes of Most Valuable Promotions and Betr.
The duo has gained a substantial net worth over the years. However, this does raise a question: When is it too much? Well, it looks like the brothers have thought of that themselves as they revealed the condition that will force them to call it quits.

Without missing a beat, Logan Paul jumped and declared, “The honest answer…when we both hit that billion,” claiming that the pair would disappear once their net worth reaches $ 1 billion. While ‘El Gallo’ agreed he had slightly different ideas and revealed that once they reach their target, the world will see a new side of him. “I’m out this b***h when I hit that billion. And you are gonna see an unhinged, unfiltered,” claimed the 27-year-old who was supported by an excited elder brother. “Yo, I can’t wait, Jake,” shouted ‘The Maverick’.
However, their co-host was not convinced by the answer and claimed that the duo wouldn’t consider even earning $1 billion as an exit. He was dead sure that “like with everything else in your lives, you’ve wanted to build on top of it.”
What’s your perspective on:
Will the Paul brothers ever truly retire, or is the billion-dollar goal just a tease?
Have an interesting take?
Jake Paul agreed with the statement and revealed that if he ever earns that much money, he will try and help society. “When I hit that B, I am turning into Batman to save society,” he added sarcastically. Nevertheless, the 10-1 boxer is already involved in several philanthropic efforts through his nonprofit organization, ‘Boxing Bullies’. The NGO focuses on empowering young individuals and combat bullying among youth. ‘The Problem Child’ is also associated with USA Boxing to promote the sport and support young American boxers.
Well, this admission by the brothers raises one question: just how far are they away from their goal? Let’s take a look at the estimated net worth they have accumulated over the years.

Paul brother’s net worth
While the brothers are not billionaires yet, they have accumulated a substantial net worth over the years. Reports estimate Jake Paul’s net worth to be between $80 million and $100 million, earned through multiple income streams. While his side ventures are quite profitable, his earnings mostly come from boxing matches, YouTube, and brand endorsements.
In 2021, Forbes reported that ‘El Gallo’ earned $38 million just from his boxing matches. He exceeded that amount to $42 million in 2023 and broke every record last year by earning $40 million just from the Mike Tyson fight. On the other hand, his sponsorships also allowed him to bring in $13.6 million, ranking him quite high in Forbes’ 2024 Top Creators list.

‘Meanwhile, The Maverick’ has also been on a roll in the last few years. He has captured a new audience with the launch of Prime Hydration and is earning approximately $200,000 monthly from YouTube ad revenue. His annual earnings lie at approximately $14 million and after signing a $250,000 contract with WWE, it is going to increase further. Logan Paul has accumulated an estimated net worth of approximately $150 million, and with subsequent deals that are going to follow him because of WWE’s new Netflix deal, it might skyrocket even further.
While both Logan and Jake Paul are far behind their goal, the way they are going, it might be possible to earn $1 billion very soon in the coming years. Whether they will call it quits after that, only time will tell. What do you think? Let us know your thoughts down below.
