Sweden's Felix Kjellberg went from selling hotdogs to making an incredible $7.5 MILLION last year, playing and commenting on video games with the most popular channel on YouTube.

As PewDiePie, his channel got more views than anyone else on YouTube last year.  He's the guy who posts videos of himself playing video games, which a lot of people do now.  But he's the most popular channel by far, and that's partly because he does A LOT of videos.

He posted one almost every day last year . . . they got 4.1 BILLION total hits . . . and he earned a pretty decent paycheck for it. According to a new report, he made $7.5 MILLION in 2014, which was more than twice as much as he made the year before.

He also got his 30 millionth follower last August, and he's picked up almost eight million more since then.  So now he's sitting at just under 38 million now.

And then there's the rest of us working hard for a meager paycheck busting our butts.... I think I'll start playing video games... Here's his interview (in English).
