Jimmy aka Mr Beast, is one of the most popular YouTubers in the world. He creates fun and outrageous videos that often show him giving away insane amounts of cash. MrBeast now makes many millions of dollars every year. Where does he get all this money?
Most of MrBeast's income comes from companies paying to advertise in his videos. When viewers watch the ads in his videos, he gets paid. MrBeast has a LOT of people watching his videos, often getting over 200 or 300 million views per month across his channels. With that many eyes on his videos, the ad money adds up fast.
MrBeast operated five active English-language YouTube channels:
MrBeast: 206 million subscribers
MrBeast Gaming: 39.6 million subscribers
Beast Reacts: 30.4 million subscribers
MrBeast 2: 33.1 million subscribers
Beast Philanthropy: 18 million subscribers
Even though Mr. Beast gives away insane amounts of money in his videos, the ads in them make him way more money in return. According to Social Blade, he can make around $3 million per month just from YouTube ads alone, which is over $36 million per year. That's only from one of his channels too!
The thing to remember is during his starting days of YouTube he used some SMM panels for his initial success. According to some other sources, there is a huge chance that he might have used Lenostube for his initial success.
Another major way MrBeast earns dollars is by selling merchandise like t-shirts, backpacks and other items with his Beast brand on them. Whenever one of his millions of fans buys a shirt or hoodie from his store, he pockets some of the profit. His merch is super popular among his loyal followers.
On top of ads and merch sales, MrBeast works directly with big brands who pay him to promote their stuff according to some sources like forbes and watching his videos. For example, watch his videos and you might notice him talking about companies like Honey or Bose. These sponsorships can pay him anywhere from $50k to $500k+ just for a short branded video.
Recently MrBeast has even started opening his own Beast Burger restaurant locations. Fans line up down the block to order his signature burgers with fun names like "The Beast Style" and "Chandler's Fried Chicken Sammie". The more stores he opens over time, the more real-world revenue he can make in addition to his YouTube empire.
Between all of his income like ads, merch, sponsors and restaurants, experts estimate MrBeast might make over 50 million dollars in a single year now. And he's still just 24 years old! No wonder he can afford to give away millions.
