Logan Paul’s estimated net worth is somewhere in the realm of $30 million. So this purchase of the world’s only sealed and authenticated box of 1st edition Pokémon cards would represent a purchase of over 10% of his personal net worth. With that said, he’s constantly getting paid so it’s not actually that big of a chunk out of his earnings. He’ll also be able to sell cards from this box for a straight-up fortune.

People on Twitter started losing their dang minds when he fired off those tweets. The idea that someone would spend $3.5 million on Pokémon cards broke a loot of brains, mine included.

A lot of people question why someone like Logan Paul would ever spend millions of dollars on Pokémon cards and the answer’s both simple and complicated. The simple answer is it makes him happy. Some people need yachts and cars to be happy (he’s got those already) but being able to spend a fortune on the things he grew up with that made him happy (Pokémon cards) brings him joy.

Also, he’s wealthy. He can keep spending Pokémon cards as much as he wants. Then he can sell cards he unpacks for a fortune AND the dude has 23+ million YouTube subscribers and countless other social media followers so he can monetize the views. He’s making money while spending money. Good for him.
