What is Joey Graceffa’s net worth in 2026?
Celebrity Net Worth estimates $12 million. The page carries no clear update date. Its latest dated detail is a January 2019 house purchase, so we cannot establish how fresh the estimate is, and it may be behind. It gives no method.
The firmest income figure we found is also old. Business Insider estimated in January 2016 that he made about $365,000 a year from YouTube, not counting sponsorships or book revenue. That is a one-time earnings estimate, not a net worth. The Forbes articles we reviewed report no net worth figure for him.
