Tom MacDonald Financial History
MacDonald’s primary financial presence is his YouTube and Instagram revenue. Although he has relatively few other financial involvements, his political style of rap is likely to bring in significant GoFundMe money even if his investments go nowhere. His politics are likely to be popular with investors who are interested in creating value judgments. MacDonald’s political support network feeds into certain desires with songs like “Fake Woke” and “Whiteboy,” making his future assured no matter how his music does with the public. MacDonald’s music is described as “taking in undercooked platitudes and filtering them into songs,” by Drew Millard of Vice magazine.

Tom MacDonald real estate holdings
Despite being active in music since 2009, MacDonald does not have significant real estate holdings outside of his home in California. He doesn’t seem to trade in real estate, unlike rich peers like YouTube pranksters MrBeast or Danny Duncan, and his holdings are relatively modest, contributing fairly little to his net worth.
Endorsement Earnings
MacDonald’s endorsement income is relatively limited. He has claimed to have a relationship with rap star Eminem, creating an expectation that he would have similar endorsement income, but owing to the sporadic and secretive nature of his self-reported net worth, MacDonald’s endorsements are similarly secretive. His “Hangover Gang” label of clothing including tees, sweatpants, hats, and bandanas is his primary endorsement income, which is relatively limited compared to his money from music performance and YouTube. MacDonald’s YouTube videos have grown more aggressive in the last year, dropping angry opinions on LGBTQ+ rights into his video stream that appeal to his primary audience. This aggressiveness will likely not make them any more attractive to endorsement deals.
Investments
MacDonald does not have publicly well-known investments. His portfolio is secretive and difficult to track, giving an incomplete view of his finances. Some reporting indicates that his financial investment portfolio exceeds the value of his YouTube and Instagram-based direct income, these reports would indicate that his net worth is toward the high side of his estimated listings, at about $12 million. Low-side investment reporting would indicate that MacDonald has relatively little investment. MacDonald is a moderately risky investment risk since so much of his financial bookkeeping is obscure and closed to the public.
Charity
His only known charity donation is $71,000 to “the military,” which based on his location of residence at the time the post went live was presumably the United States Armed Forces, but could also have been Her Majesty’s Canadian Forces. Other than that, MacDonald has no visible charitable donations on his record currently.
Summary
Tom MacDonald is a controversial political rapper whose music primarily appeals to a right-wing belief system. His annual income of approximately $200,000 and his video view count of just over 1.1 billion over 13 years since his 2009 debut indicates the probable limits of his financial penetration. His charitable donations, investments, and endorsement income are all relatively limited and unknown, making it difficult to put together an accurate picture of his finances. His apparent net worth ranges between $1.0 million and $12.0 million based on different estimates of his holdings and personal behind-the-scenes finances. MacDonald is a popular rapper for his expressed political beliefs, which makes him vulnerable to downturns in the popularity of those beliefs.
