Jenna’s Claim to Fame
She initially started her career path with Barstool Sports where she was a writer for their female counterpart website called StoolLaLa. However, in 2010 things changed when she released a video called “How to Trick People into Thinking You’re Good Looking” which got an impressive 5.3 million views just in its first week alone. As a rising YouTube star, Jenna Marble’s net worth was starting to rise as well.
At the time of the first video release, Jenna’s mother was unemployed and Jenny was concerned that potential employers may see her video and be put off by it. However, that did not seem to happen because she released another video titled “How to Avoid Talking to People You Don’t Want to Talk To”, which was featured by the New York Times and then ABC News in 2011. As of November of 2015, this video has over 35 million views.

How Much Jenna Worth?
Jenna is making some incredible amounts of money through her YouTube channel. She is considered to be the most subscribed to female channels around the world.

Despite her many critics, her net worth continues to rise. She currently rents a $1.1 million dollar town house in the city of Santa Monica.
Her advertising revenue isn’t her own source of income. In fact, her line of dog toys also is bringing in some money as well. Love her or hate her, Jenna is not going anywhere. She’s funny and attractive and from the growth in her income from 2014 to 2015, it’s apparent she’s just getting started.
