Jimmy Donaldson, known world wide as Mr. Beast may just seem like a Youtuber and content creator to some people but within this he is extremely successful and is absolutely a entrepreneur. What is unique about Jimmy is that he started from nothing, he lived in his mothers house and made gaming videos and posted them onto YouTube. He would get very few people to view his videos but accumulated a small following overtime. After Jimmy graduated high school he tried to attend a local community college but ended up dropping out of college after only two days. Now some people way say this is crazy or even stupid but that is what makes most entrepreneurs so successful. They commit to a certain way of living because they cut off or quit another way of living. In Jimmy’s case, he dropped out of college but he also got kicked out of his mother’s house and was forced to get a job and rent an apartment on his own. This made him commit to the grind of expanding his influence on YouTube, because he knew he did not want to work a job everyday, he wanted to just be a Youtuber. Jimmy is innovating because he went from crappy videos and a small following to now one of the biggest names in YouTube with over 100 Million subscribers and rakes in an insane amount of income. His income didn’t just fall into his lap however, he monetized podcasts, multiple YouTube channels, opening his own restaurants, food banks, chocolate bar company, and more. He figured out how to use his following to make new avenues of revenue and is also impacting the world in a postitive way in the process. This inspiries me because he is also very young, only in his mid twenties and is uber successful.

I love how he pursued his dreams even when people were sure doubting him. Giving up something for a bigger goal, in this case college, is something very risky that not many people try and do. He made the most of his bad situation and only gained positive things from it. The ways he expanded are incredible and the amount of revenue he is collecting is an absurd amount!
His story is a really impressive one. He risked everything and in the end it worked out for him. The amount of work and money he invests back into his videos are ridiculous. He also does a great job of entering different industries, and using his presence on YouTube to create awareness for his other products. He creates entertainment in a way no one else does.
Mr. Beast is an extremely influential and inspiring young entrepreneur. I have been watching and enjoying Jimmy’s content on YouTube for some time now, and I am continued to be fascinated in his ability to capture his audience’s attention and expand his massive following. Aside from his life story being relatable and inspiring, Jimmy’s idea of philanthropic content is excellent as no one committed to this sort of idea to the extent that he has until now. With each video, Jimmy seems to overtake new levels, surprising me every time. I have seen many smaller content creators take liking toward his content and even produce similar marketing techniques that made Jimmy so famous now. Jimmy is similar to a handful of other influencers who have built a massive following and are now using that following to gain attraction in other fields of entrepreneurship. What sticks out to me about Jimmy is that he still remains extremely humble, caring, and thoughtful despite being one of the most talked about people in modern social media.
