Jake Paul found his niche making outlandish videos for the social media platform Vine, which no longer exists.
Paul drew more than 5 million followers and 2 billion views and helped launch his intriguing career.
In 2016, Paul landed a role on the Disney show Bizaardvark, in which he played a slightly-larger-than-life character similar to himself.
In an interview with the Cleveland Plain Dealer, Paul said he related to his character’s energy level, adding that he appreciates the character’s feeling that he doesn’t care about what others think.
“He’s sort of the clown of the show,” Paul said, “and I was the class clown in school. And he makes videos. So I could really relate to him in a lot of ways.”
That role, which ended when he ran afoul of Disney standards for behavior, paved the path to his success.
He found continued stardom via YouTube as his channel grew into a behemoth that now carries more than 20 million subscribers and a wealth of ad revenue.
Jake Paul and Sports Betting
The expansion of Jake Paul’s net worth now includes sports betting pursuits.
Paul co-founded Betr, a Miami-based online sports betting app, in 2022 with Joe Levy, targeting his younger-skewing audience by offering an even more immediate set of sport-betting results.
This “micro-betting” provides a market in which customers place wagers on events during a sporting event in real time.
Not just how many points an NBA player will score, but who will score the next basket in a game. Or, in a baseball game, what will the next pitch be – strike, ball, hit.
Levy is quoted on the app’s main page: “If we believe that micro-betting will be the predominant way people bet on sports in the U.S., then someone should launch the world’s first micro-betting focused app. This is why we are starting Betr.”
According to Stock Analysis, Betr has a market cap or net worth of $414.35 million as of February 21, 2024. Its market cap has increased by 17.25% in one year.
Jake Paul’s Main Charity
Paul began Boxing Bullies in 2021 with the following mission, displayed on the charity’s official site:
“The mission of Boxing Bullies is to instill self confidence, leadership, and courage within the youth through the sport of boxing while using our platform, voice, and social media to fight back against bullying.”
For the March 2 match with Ryan Bourland in Puerto Rico, Paul said he’s donating his entire purse to Boxing Bullies.
He said: “The mission keeps on getting bigger and we’re gonna continue to renovate more gyms.”
“I’m actually going to be donating my entire fight purse to Boxing Bullies to renovate more gyms in Puerto Rico.”
His business partner Nakisa Bidarian: “I just wanna repeat that right. He’s donating his entire purse to renovate gyms in Puerto Rico.”
Paul wants to bring boxing to kids, and is working to renovate and build boxing gyms as one feature for his charity, in addition to providing equipment, as his remarkable accumulation of wealth continues to trend upward.
