The least wealthy of the Sidemen, TBJZL or Tobi Brown, still has a mouth-watering net worth of well-over a million pounds, alongside a YouTube channel with just under five million subs.
Tobi started out with gaming videos like the others, but his particular talents in football paid dividends for him and his brother following last year’s Sidemen Charity Match.
After a starring display during the game, he was handed a trial by Crawley Town.
And while he was ultimately not selected for the club’s FA Cup tie with Accrington Stanley last season, he was grateful for the opportunity.
