He asked MrBeast if he was already the first YouTuber to be a billionaire by also claiming that he would be the first one to do so out of everyone else.

But surprisingly, Jimmy had an interesting reply to this question. He revealed that this scenario was not possible for him to witness, since he keeps spending the money he earns from millions of views off his videos. Simply put, if he makes around $4 million a month, he ends up spending that immediately on the next project. Thus, there remains a very thin margin to save a higher share.

Also, MrBeast’s net worth is around $25 million as of 2022, according to Celebrity Net Worth, which means that there’s still time for him to reach the ultimate billionaire status. But there are strong chances of him doing it sooner, given the current performance of his own brand, especially in the food chain segment. His burger brand might end up giving him an edge to become a billionaire, very fast, eventually.

For those not aware, the American virtual restaurant, founded by MrBeast and Virtual Dining Concepts LLC, is a hit among the fans of the YouTuber. Calling it just a hit is actually an understatement. Because it’s doing more than that, to say the least.

According to Jimmy himself, via a tweet, MrBeast Burger shared a record revenue of over $100 million with restaurants across the United States. This is a surprisingly great performance, especially considering the fact that it’s been active for under two years only.

Furthermore, a single burger branded under the name of the YouTuber is said to make a profit of up to $500 in a day, according to Mobile Cuisine. This means that the revenues earned from thousands of burgers ordered by consumers are enough to generate a massive amount.
