MrBeast Becomes Youngest Self-Made Billionaire — Redefining YouTube Stardom

Jimmy Donaldson — globally known as MrBeast — has officially joined the billionaires’ club at just 27 years old, becoming the world’s youngest self-made billionaire. With a net worth now sitting at $1 billion, according to Celebrity Net Worth, MrBeast’s empire spans YouTube, merchandise, food brands like Feastables, and large-scale philanthropy.

His digital footprint is unparalleled, boasting over 396 million combined subscribers across multiple channels and generating an estimated $50 million in income every month.

MrBeast acknowledged the news during his appearance on The Diary of a CEO podcast, revealing that despite his billionaire status, he keeps less than a million dollars in his personal bank account. “I pay myself only what I need to live,” he said, emphasizing his reinvestment-heavy strategy.

To celebrate, MrBeast humorously recreated the viral “Hood MrBeast” meme, showing off stacks of cash with a playful caption: “You guys can stop asking me to recreate the meme now.”

His journey continues to inspire millions around the world, making him a benchmark in the modern creator economy.
