Matthew Santoro

Matthew Santoro never intended to be a full time YouTuber; he was an accountant, who had passed out from Brock University in Ontario, Canada. In 2010 he opened his YouTube channel but did not actively post videos on a regular basis; he did so only in his free time. Two years later, in 2012, the budding YouTuber was unfortunately fired from his job. He talked about the same in his video, ‘I Lost My Job Today.’ It was only after Santoro became jobless that he started to concentrate more on his YouTube channel. He directed his energies in the right direction and there was absolutely no looking back after that. Slowly the youth all over the world started noticing his talent and in a short span he gained over 5.7 million faithful subscribers on his main YouTube channel. With over 607K followers on his Twitter handle, more than 600K people following his Facebook page, and 311K people on his Instagram handle, Santoro is a star who is here to stay for good.
