Before he was a famous businessman and social media personality, Andrew Tate was a high-level kickboxer. He has won the ISKA world championship title three times and briefly appeared on Channel 4’s reality television series Big Brother. As of 2023, Andrew Tate has an estimated net worth of $250 million.
Early Life
Emory Andrew Tate III was born in Washington, DC, on December 1, 1986. His late father, Emory II, was a chess master and wrestling advocate. Along with his siblings Tristan and Janie, Andrew is of African-American and English descent.
His father joined the military, but their family suffered from poverty when his service ended. Because of this, they relocated to the United Kingdom when Andrew was four.
There, young Tate learned chess and was winning against chess players older than him at age six. He also started training as a kickboxer and had his father’s assistance.
Kickboxing Career
Andrew started his sports career in Luton, England. He first gained recognition after defeating two former super cruiserweight British champions, Mo Kargbo and Ollie Green.
He earned his first ISKA English Light Cruiserweight championship by beating Paul Randle. In the same year, he won an International Kickboxing Federation (IKF) title. He got a second ISKA title in 2011 and clinched his third in 2013.
He was crowned the Enfusion World Champion in 2014 and later became a commentator for Real Xtreme Fighting (RXF). After retiring for a while, he returned in 2020, winning against Miralem Ahmeti. Tate then challenged Jake Paul to a boxing fight and was willing to bet $3 million that he would beat the YouTuber.
Business Career
In 2016, after announcing his retirement, Tate appeared on the reality show Big Brother but was eliminated after a week. After this, he focused on his business and online ventures.
He started a YouTube channel titled TateSpeech in 2018. He uploaded videos about a variety of topics, such as guns, women, and lifestyle. Andrew also got active in sharing content on his Instagram account.
Tate uses his influence to promote Cobratate.com, a network for aspiring male millionaires. He created it with his brother, Tristan. The website features the online course War Room, which he sells to 289,000 YouTube subscribers and 1 million Instagram followers. Currently, it costs £4,147 to join the War Room program.
Net Worth and Earnings
According to SocialBlade.com it is estimated the TateSpeech YouTube channel makes between $100 to $1,500 per month. Andrew also earns extra for sponsored posts on Instagram and TikTok. However, social media isn’t a big source of income for him and he mainly uses it to promote his brand.
Andrew has made the majority of his wealth from operating several businesses and investing in cryptocurrency. He owns several casinos in Romania and runs a lucrative business with his brother Kristian. This gives him an estimated net worth of $50 million.
