Agent figures out YourRAGE's crazy streaming earnings
Din “Agent” Muktar took some time to sort out Joshua “YourRAGE”’s significant October earnings live on stream, calculating just how much the streamer apparently made during what was apparently a huge money-making month.
AMP co-founder Agent and FaZe Clan member YourRAGE may be part of two different streaming organizations, but the two are still good friends and collaborate regularly. The duo has a significant following, each creating a variety of content for their respective audiences.
With word out that YourRAGE was making big money, Agent took the time to break that money down during a livestream, and fans were left feeling more than a little impressed.
YourRAGE makes big money through streaming
According to AMP streamer Agent’s calculations, popular streamer YourRAGE’s cumulative money made from streaming in the month of October should have exceeded $2.3 million.
The key driving factor in YourRAGE’s earnings, according to Agent, was programmatic ads. It was estimated that YourRAGE would have made $1,230,000 from just Twitch advertisements that were played during his streams. By comparison, Agent estimated that YourRAGE $508,000 from Twitch subscriptions. That’s still a lot of money, but it’s less than half of what the streamer seemingly made from traditional advertisements.
YouTube ads were on the lower end for YourRAGE, as Agent estimated YourRAGE earned a significantly lesser $86,000 made from them.
Sponsors were a large contributor to the content creator’s total revenue, as Agent claimed they netted him a combined total of $475,000. Agent then deducted both taxes and expenses from the total, stating that even after that, he believes YourRAGE should have well over a million dollars remaining in pure profit.

YourRAGE’s earnings align with those of other popular streamers. His earning the most from ads makes sense, given that programmatic advertising is arguably the most financially sound element of Twitch for its most popular content creators. This is also why many such creators choose to stream on Twitch in the first place, despite the platform’s inconsistent rules enforcement and the greater revenue splits other competing platforms are able to offer on some forms of income. Twitch may not be the best platform every type of streamer, but it is the most popular livestreaming platform, and according to Agent, it’s the one that earns YourRAGE the most money.
A FaZe Clan subathon was held in the month of October, and it helped multiple members of the group’s streaming roster reach the top 10 most-subscribed Twitch streamers list. YourRAGE missed 10 days of the event, which was noted by fans, and they speculated that his earnings would have been significantly greater if he had participated in the complete month-long subathon.
While there’s no guarantee that he would have been able to make as much money in each of those days as he did during the says he did stream, it’s true that if YourRAGE had streamed for 10 more days during the subathon, there was certainly potential for him to gain that many more subscribers and earn that much more ad revenue. Given what he did earn however, it’s likely that the streamer is happy enough as it is.
