Anthony Padilla Net Worth

Daycare, Oishi High School Battle, Just Shut Up!, 16-Bit High School, Honest Game Trailers, Part Timers, and Smosh Babies. In 2014 he won a Steamy Award for Best Gaming Series for Smosh Games. Every year, Smosh earns between $7 and $10 million from their various entertainment endeavors. That’s enough to make them among the highest paid celebrities on YouTube. Smosh was acquired by Alloy Digital (which eventually evolved into Defy Media) in 2011 in an all-stock deal. Anthony Padilla left Smosh in June 2017. In November 2018, Defy Media shut down. In reaction to the company failing, Anthony posted a YouTube video in which he finally revealed how much he hated working at Defy and how he and Hecox sold Smosh for all stock (no cash) on the promise that the company would eventually go public (which it never did). While he worked at Defy he did earn a decent salary, but did not benefit from the enormous success of Smosh.
