This guy makes $1million a year playing Call of Duty

It’s headline that resembles those online pop-up ads promising poor suckers $1,000 a day working from home.

But this is the real deal – Matt Haag is said to have made $1 million in the past year from playing computer games.

The 22-year-old, who goes by the name Nadeshot has nearly one and a half million subscribers on his Youtube.

These vast numbers has attracted several sponsorship deals including Red Bull.

The energy drink firm even hired a house in Venice Beach so he could train with team mates playing games like Call of Duty.

Yoga and healthy eating sessions were thrown in to improve stamina during lengthy tournaments.

A stark contrast to his previous life – which saw him flip burgers at his local McDonald’s.

Wow, that's some serious money!

Repetitive Strain Injury.

If it works, it works. I don't think I'd want to earn money by gaming, though.

That's great if you can get paid to play a game you love. But if its a game you hate. It doesn't seem worth it.
