Read these figures with care
- Every revenue figure is YouTube Studio’s estimated revenue. Studio adjusts it at month end, and what AdSense pays can differ.
- “Cross-checked” means a second figure on the same screen, or an on-screen sum, agrees with the number (in two records across the site, a re-read of the same frame by eye, which confirms the reading rather than the figure). “Open discrepancy” means two on-screen figures disagree and the gap is left as shown. “Period inferred” means the screen printed no date range, so the dates were worked out from the chart axis and the video’s publish date.
- Only five figures were shown on screen, so this report is short by design.
- Only a dollar sign appears on screen. The currency is recorded as USD because her videos place her in the United States (a New York fashion job, and vlogs from Coney Island, Niagara Falls, Boston and Chicago); the video itself carries no location tag.
- These are figures one creator chose to show. They say nothing about what another channel, or you, would earn.
