Hate to break it to you bro but these stats are not real, this was posted on yahoo about 6 months ago. It was denied that these stats were not even close to what they make, they did not indicate whether it is under or over. Never the less these stats are not true and youtube will never release these stats, the only hope is by checking there tax returns which are public records. Unfortunately you can black out those records as well, which I 100% positive youtube pays for; sorry guys it's not happening.

Good to know.

I always thought that Nigahiga or Fred were the top youtube partners :confused:
