The Wealth of MessYourself
How rich is MessYourself? As of mid-2019, sources inform us of a net worth that is over $200,000, earned through a successful career online; his fame has led him to numerous opportunities, including partnerships and collaborative work. As he continues his endeavors, it is expected that his wealth will also continue to increase.
Early Life and Education
Very little is known about MessYourself’s life before his rise to fame online. It is known that he grew up in a family household in Middlesex, England, alongside his parents and two sisters in an apartment. He didn’t initially think of a career as a YouTube personality, and after matriculating from high school, he enrolled at Uxbridge College with the intention of completing a degree in mathematics.
The school is a general further education college located in the London Borough of Hillingdon. It has two campuses, one in Hayes and the other in Uxbridge though it is not known which campus it attended. It is known for using a good portion of its budget on buildings which includes a mall, teaching center, and technical institute. There are also conference facilities and a coffee relaxation area in the school. They offer professional level hair and beauty salons facilities along with a theatre for performance art courses. One of their newest buildings is a gymnasium which was created to coincide with the launch of a new sports department.
YouTube Career
Mess has always been interested in video games, and eventually after completing his education, he decided that it was a possibility for him to pursue a career in gaming through the platform YouTube. The website is owned by Google and is one of the most popular websites in the internet. Users can upload their own videos to the site which can then be viewed by others. They can also comment, rate, share, and subscribe to videos or channels they enjoyed watching. Content creators can earn income through the Google AdSense program which allows creators to earn income through advertising.
He began his channel by posting videos of himself playing various first person shooters, including “Call of Duty: Black Ops”. The video game was developed by Treyarch and published by Activision, and is set during the Cold War, following CIA operative Alex Mason as he attempts to recall certain memories while he was in service. The game serves as a direct sequel to “Call of Duty: World at War”, and received generally popular reviews, selling over 5.6 million worldwide. He often incorporated comedy into his gaming videos, though didn’t gain a lot of attention during this period.
Rising to Fame
Having a desire to develop a career on YouTube and become a full-time content creator, MessYourself made a lot of sacrifices. He later mentioned that he basically starved himself so that he could have the money to help him buy the equipment he needed to help improve his channel. It proved to be a good move, as when his video quality improved, he was noticed by one of the biggest YouTube personalities – Felix Kjellberg, also known as PewDiePie.
His popularity grew significantly, and he continued to make consistent video uploads with a focus on comedy. Some of his most popular productions include reaction videos, and those of him playing the game “Who’s Your Daddy”. The game was created through the crowd funding platform Kickstarter, with a budget of $1,500; in the game, one player controls the father and the other the infant. The father has to prevent the baby’s death, and must protect him through locking cabinets, placing dangerous objects out of the baby’s reach, and more. In recent months, Mess has been more focused on reaction videos, as they have been helping him get more views and interactions. He’s created a second channel which now focuses on video games.
Personal Life and Social Media
For his personal life, it is known that Mess is in a relationship with Mia, also known as Crayofficial. She is also a YouTube and social media personality, though not as active on YouTube anymore.

Similar to numerous YouTube personalities, Mess is highly active online through accounts on social media – on Instagram his account has over 230,000 followers, and on which he posts a lot of personal photos and videos, many alongside his girlfriend, and his pet dogs. He enjoys travelling a lot during his free time.
He also has a Facebook account, though it has not been updated since 2017, apparently abandoned in favor of Instagram and YouTube, though it could also have been set to private to discourage any prying eyes. Other than these, he’s created a personal website, though it was but to promote his merchandise which is no longer for sale. Despite that, the website is still active and he’s managed to gain a bit of income from it.
