Do you know Pakistan can repay IMF loan in less than a day?

If every one of Pakistan’s 240 million people created a YouTube channel, subscribed to every other channel, and each video received 240 million views, the country could generate enormous revenue from YouTube ads.

Here’s how the scenario plays out:

Hypothetical Earnings from YouTube:

• Views per video: 240 million
• Revenue per view (average): $0.02
• Revenue per video: 240 million views $0.02 per view = $4.8 million
• Total monthly earnings: $4.8 million × 240 million channels = $1.152 trillion.

Time to Repay IMF Loan:

• Total external debt (2024): $27.47 billion
• Time to repay using YouTube earnings
• Since monthly earnings would be $1.152 trillion, Pakistan could repay the entire $27.47 billion in less than a day (approximately 17 hours).
