Jimmy Donaldson, or MrBeast as he’s known professionally, is one of YouTube’s biggest content creators, with his collection of channels boasting a combined total of over 160 million subscribers at the time of writing.

MrBeast rose to fame through his elaborate videos that often see the YouTuber giving away large amounts of cash, or spending hundreds of thousands of dollars to create videos such as a real-life Squid Game with hundreds of people competing for a huge cash prize, which currently sits at over 232 million views.

With billions of views on his channels, as well as plenty of brand deals, many fans often wonder what is MrBeast’s net worth, here is what we know.

MrBeast’s main channel was created on February 20, 2012, when Jimmy Donaldson was just 12 years old. After a few years of uploading gaming content and informative videos such as “How Much Money Do YouTubers Make” to little success, MrBeast began posting crazy challenges in the hopes of going viral, such as “I Counted To 100,000”.

This began to work for MrBeast and over the next few years, his videos and channel went from creating fairly low-quality content as one person in his bedroom with budget equipment to some of the most professionally produced videos on YouTube.

As of March 2022, MrBeast’s collection of YouTube channels gains over 575 million views, and according to Social Blade bring in a combined estimate today of between $123,000-$1.98 million, that’s a big gap. As it is only an estimation it would be safe to put the figure somewhere in the middle, so we will say approximately $1 million per month in ad revenue, although this has also been reported to be as high as $3 million.

In addition to ad revenue, MrBeast regularly partners with brands such as Microsoft and Electronic Arts and managed to generate over $51 million in revenue for his company in 2021.

But, just because he generated $51 million in revenue, it doesn’t mean he made $51 million in 2021. After taking out production costs, the huge amount of money MrBeast gives away and paying for the salaries of his many employees, it will take away a large amount of the potential profit.

Even with all of those expenses though, the MrBeast brand still generates a lot of money for Jimmy Donaldson, with sources estimating his net worth to be around $25-50 million.

Without hearing it directly from MrBeast himself, the figure will only be an estimation, but it would be safe to assume that his net worth is around $30 million.
