For sure but Mr. Beast doesn’t actually keep any of the money for himself.

No matter what, the amount of money, contests, and just absolute overindulgence capable by Mr Beast is insane in any functioning society. The disparity is so bad these influencers and people with money swoop in, gift people egregious and lavish gifts are rewards for contests, and use that to further enrich themselves through monetized channels. Its sickening to watch. This shouldn’t be reality.

He does though. You can’t build fancy sets and put on huge productions without having money. Like yeah, Jimmy might not have millions of dollars in his personal bank account, but his business sure does.

The old system where the networks got all the money was way better.

Suddenly it’s 1960.
Microsoft, Apple, Amazon and Google have replaced ABC, NBC, PBS and CBS.
