British data analytics company Hopper HQ has just released the ‘Instagram Rich List 2024’.

The list is based on how much money celebrities around the world earn for each Instagram post.

🥇 Topping the global list is soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo, with around 600 million followers, who can earn a whopping $3,432,000 per Instagram post.

 

Will Ronaldo become a famous YouTuber after “hanging up his boots”?

 

On August 21, Ronaldo officially launched his personal YouTube channel called “UR – Cristiano”. After only 90 minutes, this YouTube channel surpassed the 1 million sub (followers) mark, making Ronaldo the first person to reach this number in the shortest time, meaning he achieved the “golden button”.

Not stopping there, after about 11 hours since its launch, Ronaldo’s personal Youtube channel has surpassed the 10 million sub mark, equivalent to the “diamond button”. A famous person on Youtube, IShowSpeed, initially predicted that Ronaldo would take about 5 days to reach and surpass his 32 million sub mark. However, IShowSpeed ​​was wrong because Ronaldo only took more than 1 and a half days, specifically 37 hours, to surpass the 32 million sub mark.

Currently, the Youtube channel “UR – Cristiano” has more than 45 million subscribers. This number is of course far behind MrBeast, the most famous character on Youtube with more than 312 million subscribers. But remember, Ronaldo has only launched his channel for a few days but has made a very strong leap and in fact the Portuguese striker has not fully focused on this issue when he is still playing for Al Nassr Club in Saudi Arabia.

In the five days since his debut, Ronaldo has posted 20 videos, with the least viewed video reaching 4.4 million. Videos with engaging content related to winning the “golden button” or featuring his girlfriend Georgina Rodriguez have reached or exceeded 40 million views.

Such statistics show that Ronaldo could very well become a world-famous YouTuber if he were to stop playing top-level football. Ronaldo is over 39 years old, and his time at the top level is numbered. Ronaldo has not revealed when he will hang up his boots, but anyone can guess that it could come in the near future.

Ronaldo is a football billionaire, has won almost all the collective and individual titles in his career (perhaps only the World Cup championship is left to be perfect). Besides playing football, Ronaldo is a real brand, still associated with or invited to collaborate by many famous brands, based on his healthy lifestyle, handsome appearance and very sexy and talented girlfriend Georgina.

Of course, Ronaldo has never mentioned changing his career from a football player to a professional YouTuber. But with someone as quick to make money as CR7, it is not impossible that he will participate more deeply in this field.

It is believed that the launch of an official Youtube channel is a new direction in increasing the income of the “money-making machine” named Ronaldo. Who knows, in just a little while, the online community will have a very famous Youtuber Ronaldo, not a coach Ronaldo or a football commentator Ronaldo. Let’s wait and see!
