2016 had $90B revenues and 1.5B 30d active users (for YouTube) so $60 per year would be a good guess.

(Disclaimer: I'm a Googler but I just got these numbers from public statements. No way I'm well paid enough to be able to see more detailed numbers. :-D )

Personally I'd happily pay $5/mo for all of my google services if it meant I was entirely removed from the whole advertising/"customer-is-a-product" offering and I could have confidence that I wasn't being sold as a product in other regards.
gSuite is exactly that: $5/month/user for the basic package, and does exactly what the grandparent wants.
sure, it's nice to be outside of adverts... but using gSuite always feels like pretending I'm not being farmed out to the gov't
