Jimmy Donaldson, better known on YouTube as MrBeast, has been developing challenges that may change people's lives one video at a time. The online superstar has enough to give away and improve people's financial situations while donating millions of dollars in cash and gifts. But most people don't perceive it that way.
MrBeast has highlighted how his actions actually accomplish a lot of good despite frequently being accused of "f***king people over" by awarding such pricey presents and cash awards. On the 'TMG' podcast, the 24-year-old made an appearance and detailed how winning his challenges works. He also spoke candidly about the criticism he'd faced.
How does it work?
People compete in a challenge, and the winner has the option of accepting their reward or selling it. And MrBeast has them covered if they are concerned about taxes. If the individual doesn't want the award, he will even purchase it from them. He highlighted that the winner of one challenge in which he gave away a $2.5 million plane could sell it for $2.1 million and still have $1.4 million left over after taxes.
However, other Twitter users claim that MrBeast is destroying people's life by granting them access to these pricey items. Nevertheless, MrBeast clarified that is not how money functions.
‘People want to complain about Mr Beast’
It seems that not everyone opposes his idea. Some people did not even need to comprehend the man's work before they revered him as a legend.
A commenter on YouTube said, “It all makes sense if you think about it. Of course, no one really can do anything with an island or jet. But it needs to be something crazy like that to amp up the views and subscriptions to get the revenue to be able to give large prizes. If he would give 1000 people 1000 dollars, he wouldn’t have over 100 million subscribers. The fact that he gives options and buyback is crazy cool.” Another person commented, “People want to complain about Mr Beast and his money but we have to realize that a few years ago he was a normal dude making a normal amount of money. He’s proof that any one of us can make it and I support him even if I am jealous lol. Keep hope alive.”
MrBeast established a following on YouTube by creating a subgenre of films that feature pricey stunts. He has more than 100 million subscribers on his YouTube account.
