Let's talk about Mr. Beast.

For those of you who don't know who he is, his name is Jimmy Donaldson, a.k.a MrBeast. He is a Youtube sensation and influencer who was once a nobody and has seemingly racked up 100 million plus subscribers and more than 6 billion views since he started his entrepreneurial journal on Youtube in 2012.

Here is a summary

  • She was named by Forbes as the first Youtube billionaire.
  • He has a loyal and strong fanbase (100 million subscribers)
  • He gives a lot of money back to his viewers and supporters.
  • He has a relentless pursuit, having started from nothing and made something of himself.

Why do most people give Mr. Beast a double-take when they hear about him?

He is selfless

Most people that come into some money begin to hoard it. It's been a struggle being poor, so when they do make some money, they go into survival mode and want to accumulate as much as possible. This is understandable.

Mr. Beast is selfless with his money.
