And, he and his looney fans will moan about him being 'cancelled'.

Money talks yeh listen can't you hear it
They're calculating that remaining associated with rb will cost them more than he'd bring in. No morality, simple cost/benefit analysis
He's developed his own revenue stream, I don't think he'll give much of a fuck about two gigs being cancelled. It will be interesting to see what the social media channels do about this given he's not been found guilty or even charged with anything. I think he makes most of his money out of YouTube.
I corrected it in my reply to you by quoting Wikipedia which states the law correctly. Seems to be a few people on here that jump on anything here for points rather than bother to be civil.

The problem with that for him is it's easy for yt to fuck him off. All these organisations can ban who they like when they like, and in brand's case I'm sure there's a number of breaches of the yt t&c they could point to as justification if required

i thought he was pretty much exclusively on Rumble now, not youtube. he left cos of being censored or cancelled by the mainstream obvs.
The financial side of his grift, him and people like him, i don't really get how it works.
Had a look at it today, his daily sermons on rumble are free to watch, looks like not much ad revenue. True believers will pay $60+ a year to subscribe to his exclusive club for extra something so maybe there's lots of those subscribers but that's it.
So maybe his tours and the annual (very high ticket cost) hippie festival are important for him to pay his bills and wardrobe expenses idk.

I think it's mainly YouTube. He's an influencer essentially.
Russell Brand's jaw-dropping net worth and refusing Katy Perry divorce payout
Russell Brand has earned a jaw-dropping fortune through his career as a comedian, actor, TV presenter, author and podcast host - but he could have been worth a lot more if he's have taken the divorce payout from his split with Katy Perry

Went and had a look at David Icke's bb to see what they were saying. (Had assumed was same catchment). Turns out he's very much the Judean People's Front over there

yeah idk, maybe i'm wrong, what i remember is him announcing he was going to post on rumble instead because youtube was mainstream and had censored his visoes about how invermectin is a cure for covid. eg) Russell Brand Launches Exclusive Daily Live Show on Rumble
Just read that rumble pays people to perform there, which i didn't know, that might explain it a bit.

You are wrong, he still had his YT channel, with 6.6m subscribers, I've seen reports that he makes around £50k a month from that.

Channel might. He won't. His operation isn't a one man band

The suggestion is the channel makes a lot more, but his likely take is around £50k.
Even if the channel only get 1p in ad revenue per view, his denial video on Friday would have brought in £14k, having been watched 1.4m times.

There's no future in England's dreaming
Victim testimony is never enough.
(You also mentioned in another post about no paper trail. There is DNA in rape trials and it's still he said she said - that's where the problem lies. Belief. And...well, you know why it's the woman who is less often believed).
But back to my first line. I was on jury for the most obvious case of stealing you've ever seen in your life. Enough, easily, for the CPS to bring it to trial. Not caught red-handed, because he got away, but chased from the home red-handed for a long way. Picked out separately by two people in that line-up thing they do. Guilty as fuck.
Not guilty.
Prosecution? Poor Bangladeshi family with CPS shit lawyers.
Defence? Son of a magistrate with the best (most fucking boring to be honest) lawyer money could buy. Spent a whole day discussing the colour of the guy's curtains.
It's not about evidence. It's about lawyers (and patriarchy in rape cases).
I don’t think you get that much. Maybe £5k for a mill or probably less.

its nowhere near 1p per view, no way, he'd be on millions every day that way? i'm not worried about his finances, to be clear, he might lose some money from this but think he'll be just fine. Dunno how it works with youtube & its competitors, he's just milking every possible channel for what he can get obvs.
On top of ad revenues he’ll probably get payment from whatever shite he’s grifting too. So there is that.

floofy
yeah exactly.

He's worth £16 million. I don't want to come over all Magnus but maybe it is the working class boy in me but just how much fucking money do people need?
Yeah he'll be fine.
Yeah he'll be fine.

He gets apparently a bit more than a million views a day on yt. The link I posted about reckons $0.003-$0.007 per view. If it was 1p per view he wouldn't be on millions a day but £10k a day (1m/100).
£16M would give you a fifteen grand a week income. So yeah, he could completely close shop and still be fine.

It increases rapidly over time, he has literarily hundred of millions of views, and he does a lot of long videos.
