Jimmy Donaldson, better known as MrBeast, has officially entered billionaire territory. According to Celebrity Net Worth, the popular YouTuber now has an estimated net worth of $1 billion, making him the eighth youngest billionaire in the world. At just 27, he’s also the only person under 30 on that list who didn’t inherit any of his fortune.

MrBeast got his start in high school, uploading videos from his home in North Carolina. His breakthrough came in 2017 with a video titled “I Counted to 100,000,” which took 44 hours to record and now has over 31 million views.

Over the years, MrBeast became famous for his extreme challenges, big giveaways, and charity-driven content. In 2024, Forbes named him a top creator on its annual list. While Forbes had earlier estimated his net worth at $85 million, new figures shared during a lawsuit in 2024 showed much higher earnings.

According to those court documents, he earned $223 million in 2023, and his income was expected to jump to $700 million in 2024.

Donaldson has also built a business empire beyond YouTube. In 2020, he launched MrBeast Burger, a delivery-only fast-food brand that at one point was earning $2.3 million a month. However, due to concerns over food quality, he later filed a lawsuit against the company managing it.

He also founded Feastables, a snack brand that quickly became a success and expanded his reach into retail and consumer goods.
