15-Year-Old TikTok Influencer Runs a Slime Empire From His Attic

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 7 ส.ค. 2020
- When TikTok star Addison Rae shared a review of Ricky Waite’s slime, his business, RL Slimes, was thrust into the limelight. His slime sold out immediately. Ricky, who’s from Santa Rosa, California, has been making his own slime for three years. He credits his skill of making slime to “trial and error” and watching Karina Garcia’s TH-cam videos. Inside Edition Digital’s Leigh Scheps shares a look at a day in his life. #dayinthelife #InsideEdition
Thank you so much for doing this segment on me! This was such a cool experience, I’m so happy to have been given the opportunity to do this!
Rl Slimes nice dedication!
Thanks for participating! Glad to share your story!
K I’m going to buy ur slime
Rl slimes hi I will try to but ur slime if my parents let lol
Please give me some of your slime for free
Damn wtf am I doing 6 in the morning watching a kid make slime 😳
That was my same thought
Make slime l0l
2:30 that kid just almost ended this guys career lol.
Lol
Wait I don’t get it
😂😂
@@sharifahsafiullah6609 he said it was sticky which most people dont like sticky slime
Thalia Rubio •7 years ago ohh 😲 I get it thx
Mum: “I hope he’s a doctor!!”
Dad: “What about a lawyer?”
*Son:*
Honestly if he was my son I wouldn't be disappointed,as long as he doesn't do anything and works hard I will be happy
@@pellotaspercip fr
money starts rolling in
At least he’s not selling crack
Hai
and yet Addison makes 5 mill for just dancing, this dude is actually dedicated
edit: alright alright chill, I don't hate Addison, too me I just PERSONALLY think that he had to start from the bottom then get up, but unlike tik tok stars like Addison, they just blow up and easily get into advertisements and get sponsorships bc shes popular. But anyways think what u think it's my opinion luv
No charli makes 4 million but Addison makes 5 million
@@silly.billy.566 it's still close
He deserves 4 mill not her. He is really busy and talented
@@silly.billy.566 oh woops
really, its small effort dancing and she somehow earns alot of money more than somebody who works hard.
While some 15-year-olds just lay on the couch and play video games, this guy has a whole company and a busy schedule.
the slime trend is slowly dying down, his company will be gone in a year
I see you comment on almost every Inside Edition video 😂
@@aniyahhhhh me?
@@twermm No, not you.
Frenite.
@@twermm slime died ages ago. Just like dabbing
Didn’t slime die out? If not I live under a rock😂
Yes. But either way, he's got a feel for running his own business & already starting an impressive resume. Plus networking is everything.
@@drewdarren5599 I agree. He can do whatever he wants. We're not here just to pull him down..
And succeeding is a bonus too.
@@wood_barrel shut up
@@dionmcneill369 why say that to him? he literally didn't do anything or say anything to you
Ladiesman217 that’s a woman
Well at least he's living a busy life
But slime is insignificant. He could be making masks or something actually useful.
ChickenYale you just jealous
ChickenYale bro just shut up lmao
ChickenYale maybe that money could get money for ppl for covid or charity don’t judge so quick when you don’t know the stuff behind
That was cringe
And all my family is thinking about is me finishing college.
nonName 😂😂😂
Hmm, 69 likes, how about no
He's got something to do in quarantine
Ikrr 💀
This kid will be a billionaire one day.
Millionare
Prob just a millionaire slime don’t get you to far
Never know it might be as big as Amazon one day no promises
Trump: I’m about to end this mans whole career
sloppy lol ikr
Literally
mICROsOFT bOUGHT tIK TOK
dark🤣🤣
He can still do this just not on tiktok
Geez I thought slime wasn’t gonna be recommend to me again ever since that trend went away ages ago
Surprised people still buy it tho
Ikr
I've never heard of this guy my girlfriend loves slime but she doesn't know about this man
Deltawest United Official there’s a lot of slime businesses out there so u guys prolly dont know every smile business out there
I feel like the slime trend is dead ngl
It is but some people like to play with it. Remember these kids were eating tide pods a year ago so it doesn't take much to stimulate their brains
It’s not dead for ppl who haven’t gotten it or made it
J G literally nobody ate tide pods that was just a joke
J G Boomer alert
Well at least he’s doing a lot better than you 😙
A 13 year old can plan a convention better than tana a 20 yo. He’s goin places
Savannah Rose lmfao fr
He’s actually 15 or..... 16 which is still completely mind blowing!
It’s nice to see a 15 year-old making money from something he enjoys rather than dancing on Tiktok.
very supportive parents
How tf is getting so many orders where there's so many other places that already do this... Not to mention that you can do it yourself easily
His slime is very customized. So I guess there's that.
@@cesarebachelli Smh you're out here liking your own comment trying to back up some unoriginal slime Tik Tok kid😂
@@Original_J65 as a dad, I will be proud if my boy is entrepreneurial like him. There's no need for negativity.
Remember Addison rae promoted his slime
For the same reason people buy at Burger King even though there's Carl's Jr, McDonald's, In & Out , and so and so on...not to mention that you can cook a burger yourself easily...Welcome to capitalism™️🤑💰 😇
he's soo organized, time and everything
Good on him. Keep going young man. Blessings
Can we just appreciate the editor?!?!?
This video was so long I forgot it was posted by Inside Edition 😭😭😂😂😂
This type of vids is what I like to see on TikTok. None of those tryhard videos...
Its sad to think that he's still running a business even though the slime trend has been over for a while thats dedication
if its dedication why is it sad lol
seems to be making good money too
*When I was this early I was still working in the bowling alley*
Slime trend isn't over ppl. Maybe it's over on 'Instagram' or whatever but there will always be new kids that will get into it just like with Pokemon.
Pokemon never died but an ok example :/
@@grandbaby5993 yeah, that's what I am saying: Pokemon has not died, and neither has slime.
Again, inside edition posting at weird hours of the night
Let’s see what happens to him when TikTok gets banned.
This expired me I want to start my own business now
.....
Inspired*
Expired? U mean inspired??
lol
Nah guys, expired 😂💀
His eyes r gorgeous 🌸🌘
Him having a slime shop is crazy
Dude Looks Like The Family Friendly Version Of Walter White In Breaking Bad
Walter: Makes Meth In A Lab
Rickey:Makes Slime In A Lab
They Both Have The Same Amount Of Letters In Their Names, And People Both Loved Their Products.
“It’s very sticky” time to take that out of context
I didn't knew slime still "exists".
Many people still LOVE slime, i mean 80 people buy his slime every week
This dude is more famous than I’ll ever be
Kudos to him.
I thought his food was slime ☠️
This guy will go places
Wow Look at you go..This is amazing.My family love slime.so relaxing.Keep up the good work.
RL slimes sounds like R.L Stines the man who wrote the goosebump books Very creative 💯
I thought so too!
Next video: Kid makes Lego's in his mom's basement
Nickelodeon should hire this kid...
Wow he’s lucky that his house wasn’t burned and to the people that lived next door sorry that happened
I just watched a 11 minute video of someone getting more money making slime then me working.
I wouldn't want to make slime for 10 hours a day sounds boaring
If you get to be your own boss, be on your phone and in the comfort of your own home while making $2500 a week I think you’d do it lmao
The benefits greatly outstrip the cons..
He is 15 and drives??? WHAT
He has gloves on while making slime, then theres me I tend to make a whole mess.
It must be fun being him playing with ALL of that cool slime
My youngest daughter makes slime for her friends and puts it in Tupperware container. They love it. She has been doing this for two to three years but never sales it. I buy everything for her to give it all away. She does it for fun and makes new friends.
Good job! Love this!
Everyone: Awesome slime business!
Me: Bruh what shampoo you using?
13 year old plans a convention better than tanacon
When he was the window he sounded like a young leafy
Woah! This kid has a future...
Yeah future of slime trash
But the president may put an end to his career.... =,(
How??
ah this time you ain't gettin much likes
Y?
Etsy, instagram, youtube
He will be fine mate
Because he banned tiktok
When someone uses reverse Psychology to parents saying “he probably lives in his parents basement”
I am watching this at an ungodly hour.
Lol same
Same 😭😭😭
same
Same 💀
I hate TikTok, but this man has my respect.
Who remembers Samantha slime that was also on inside edition
James Charles of slime
At my school slime was like contraband.
Me 15 years old : playing around the house
Whats the song played for his tiktok video? Anyone know?
Where do you buy his slime
It’s amazing what you can do when your already rich 👍
How come it’s always some kid who already has a stable living?
Thats amazing keep up the good work u jVe talent I have 2 boys 14 and 11 and hope one day there successful keep doing wht your doing your a talented kid your preexisting be very proud
These kids were born rich. None of them have a rags-to-riches type of story.
That’s not how it needs to happen anymore, just because you live off government assistance doesn’t mean he has to..
Not everyone is poor you know. He might be rich but at least he's not spoiled he's working hard with his slime business at 15 years old.
Why does that even matter? He works his ass off clearly
I thought his breakfast would be slime ☠️
I love his eyes and his hair
When TikTok shuts down
LMAOO CLOSING UR EYES WHILE LISTENING TO ADDISON’s VIDEO ON THE SLIME TING IS SOO WEIRD 😂😂😂😂
Longest inside edition video I have seen.
I thought attic were to keep children locked up down there?
😳
Smart 15 year old entrepreneur.
I should tell this to my older 46 year brother who doesn't work, lives with multiple mom, mooching and complaining get all day that he can't find a job.
I thought that was max dressing 😭😭

Seriously? Slime? But I respect this dude cause he doesn’t dance and make money

Being a successful business owner at 16 is sus? Okay
Good for him
It's so good that he doing it made my day
He looks like the guy that said “THE FRINKIN FRICK”
