Actor Ananya Panday’s cousin Alanna Panday, recently revealed details about the income she and her husband, Ivor McCray, generate as content creators online. Ivor said that if they continue on the same trajectory, they wouldn’t have to work ever again in their entire lives. In a follow-up to the video in which they made these comments, Ivor said that he has quit his job, while Alanna described him as the ‘money police’ of the family. Alanna and Ivor tied the knot in India last year, but primarily live in Los Angeles. They have one son, River.
In a new video posted on their YouTube channel, Alanna and Ivor answered more fan questions, including what streams of income they have besides content creation. Ivor said, “There’s a lot of stuff we do to earn money. Mainly, it’s investments in crypto and stocks. We have a financial advisor who takes care of this stuff for us.” Alanna added, “Our main source of income is content creation, and brand deals. The goal is to take those brand deals and make them passive income by making a portfolio of investments.”
Ivor said that they spend only 50% of their income every month, and that the rest is invested. “I’m happy Ivor is like that. Because I can be (the one buying bags). He’s the money police. He makes sure that half the money we make is put away for when we’re older, and when River goes to a good college and has a good life.” Ivor said that he has quit his job to focus on content creation, despite having collaborated with some of the world’s biggest music artists via his old job as a festival designer.
Alanna explained, “Being together, we soon realised that by doing this social media thing together, we are making two times, if not three times, what we would make separately,” she said. In their earlier video, Ivor said that he learned to be frugal from his grandfather. “The goal is that, within five years, if we’re on the right path, we wouldn’t have to work again if we didn’t want to. This ideology was passed down to me by my father and grandfather. My grandfather was actually a very wealthy man, but nobody knew. He would wear the most raggedy clothes and drive a beat-down car, and the guy was a millionaire. He came from a lot of wealth, but didn’t want that lifestyle for his kids. He never wore his money. He told my dad, and my dad told me,” he said.
