He owns several businesses ranging from e-commerce to a real estate firm called Core Capital Realty. Based on this YouTube success, Charlie Chang has a net worth of $2 million.
Early Life
Chang was born on April 18, 1992, in Los Angeles, California. As a child, Charlie loved the idea of entrepreneurship and sold candy at school at 12 years old. However, his parents had other plans. They wanted him to become a doctor, so he studied pre-med at the University of California.
Charlie graduated in 2014 with honors but struggled to get a job. Later on, he took the Emergency Medical Technician (EMT) exam and passed. He started various side hustles to pay living expenses.
Career Beginnings
After getting his EMT license, the California native applied to a local ambulance service but failed the practical exam. With no prospects of a job, e-commerce piqued his interest. He discovered the potential of Amazon FBA back when it was a viable way to make money.
He learned how the business model worked and found a factory to manufacture the products. Soon he got his first large-scale order of 500 items. Around this time, he also launched an athletic clothing line, CHVRG.
Chang went on to start multiple businesses but had his fair share of ups and downs. In 2018, he set up a YouTube channel to share his experience and now has over 1.06 million subscribers.
Other Income Sources
Charlie Chang’s channel gained a lot of traction when he began sharing his income sources with viewers. Aside from Amazon FBA and YouTube ad revenue, he earns money from affiliate marketing and brand deals.
Chang is a qualified real estate and mortgage broker, and operates in Northern and Southern California. He is the principal broker at Core Capital Realty, a brokerage located in Costa Mesa. Charlie makes money selling properties and renting them out for passive income. In addition, he invests in stocks and crypto which have been rocky over the past 12 months.
He teaches his side hustle techniques in one-on-one consulting calls, a newsletter, and 6 Figure YouTube Academy course. Occasionally, Charlie does modeling and photography work.
Net Worth and Earnings
It is reported that Chang makes $24,000 per month from ad revenue on YouTube. With his growing audience, it is estimated that he makes $18,750 per month on affiliate marketing and sponsorships. His course also brings in a considerable amount as it retails for $397.
In 2020, he stated that five of his income sources make him $35,000 every month. These figures are substantial, but Charlie’s investment portfolio and real estate brokerage are the main reason he’s worth $2 million.
Personal Life
Charlie Chang is not vocal about his personal life. However, it is known that the accomplished businessman is in a relationship with Jasmin Carrasco. Jasmin is a registered nurse and apart from this, nothing else is known about Chang’s private affairs.
