Jimmy Donaldson, better known as MrBeast, has officially become a billionaire at just 27 years old. According to Celebrity Net Worth, he is now the youngest self-made billionaire in the world.
MrBeast didn’t earn his fortune through traditional business. He built it with viral YouTube videos, creative business ideas like MrBeast Burger and Feastables chocolate, and a strong mission of giving back to the world.
Back in 2020, he launched MrBeast Burger, a delivery-only fast-food brand. At its peak, it earned around $2.3 million per month. He also started Feastables, a chocolate company that made over $10 million in its first few months.
Besides this, he co-founded Juice Funds with Creative Juice, offering up to $250,000 in funding for rising content creators.
MrBeast has always promised to donate most of his wealth before he dies. His goal is simple: “Make a lot of money and use it to do as much good as possible.”
He started his YouTube journey at just 12 with the channel “MrBeast6000” and later dropped out of college to fully focus on content creation. Born on May 7, 1998, in Greenville, North Carolina, Jimmy is now the face behind several popular YouTube channels: MrBeast, Beast Reacts, MrBeast Gaming, and MrBeast Philanthropy.
Together, his channels have more than 415 million subscribers, with his main channel alone having 270 million+—making it the most-followed channel in the world.
Alongside his fame, MrBeast has won awards like Breakout Creator and YouTuber of the Year in 2020 and was even nominated as Vlogger of the Year in 2019.
From YouTube kid to global billionaire, MrBeast is not just breaking records—he’s rewriting what success looks like in the digital age.
