When talking about famous YouTubers at the present time, many people will immediately think of MrBeast. Not only does he have one of the highest follower counts as an individual YouTuber, but MrBeast is also known as one of the wealthiest individuals pursuing a career on YouTube. This is understandable, as MrBeast always appears extremely generous in his content. He is willing to give large sums of money to strangers and create challenges with rewards of up to millions of dollars for participants.
Few people know that besides his work on YouTube, MrBeast is also running a food brand called Feastables with estimated revenues of around 600-700 million USD each year. Not to mention, each video on YouTube, as MrBeast admits, can help him earn over a million dollars. If it’s a collaboration with a brand, this number can triple. Despite being so wealthy, MrBeast recently shocked everyone by admitting a truth: he is not as financially secure as everyone thinks. The reason behind MrBeast’s “poverty” is quite surprising.
Specifically, MrBeast has no control over this enormous revenue. Instead, although he has hired a financial director, his parents ultimately have the final say in how that income is utilized. Speaking about his food company, MrBeast asserts that the initial figures sound large, but in return, he also spends quite a bit of money on reinvestments, such as purchasing supermarkets, private islands, and especially when producing videos for his YouTube channel.
This shows that even rich people like MrBeast sometimes have to complain about being poor, and it’s hard to believe that to this day, even as a billionaire, most of his income is still managed by his parents.
