Jimmy Donaldson, popular as MrBeast, remains in the limelight for his thrilling YouTube challenges and vlogs. Referred to as the “most-subscribed” YouTuber in the world, MrBeast’s net worth has always been one of the most-discussed topics on social media. In March, Forbes claimed that MrBeast’s earnings were $85 million last year, securing the number one position on the Forbes Top Creators 2024 list.

The Forbes profile highlights several of MrBeast’s major achievements over the past year, particularly the rapid growth of Feastables and the success of Beast Games. MrBeast has built a massive following with his large-scale, game-show-style videos, boasting 370 million subscribers and drawing an average of over 764 million views per episode.
Beyond YouTube, MrBeast expanded into various business ventures over the years. His chocolate brand, Feastables, raised $60 million in Series A funding in February 2024. He also introduced Lunchly, a packaged food line inspired by Lunchables, and operates MrBeast Burger, a virtual restaurant brand focused on pickup and delivery. In addition, he runs MrBeast LLC, a production company responsible for creating his signature viral content, according to Fortune.
Early this month, he responded to a comment tagging him “the only billionaire under 20 to have inherited his wealth.” Clarifying the claim, the YouTuber wrote, “I have very little money because I reinvest everything (I think this year we’ll spend around a quarter of a billion on content),” he wrote. “Ironically, I’m borrowing $ from my mom to pay for my upcoming wedding lol,” MrBeast said.
