MrBeast explains he\u2019s losing \u201cridiculous amount of money\u201d on main channel YouTube: MrBeastMrBeast, popular YouTuber and philanthropist, has revealed that due to the extraordinary amount of money he drops on each main channel video for some bizarre concepts, he\u2019s actually running at a loss on his main channel. Jimmy \u2018MrBeast\u2019 Donaldson has been around on YouTube since 2012, but in the past few years has exploded in popularity on the site, currently at over 50 million subscribers on his main channel alone, along with 13 million more on his gaming channel. He\u2019s become well known for his insanely high-budget videos in which he gives money and gifts to family, friends, and strangers in the weirdest ways possible. These videos often see Jimmy buying out entire stores, giving people $100 million but only one minute to spend it, and more. In 2020, the star even bought an entire $700,000 island and had people see who could stay on it the longest, with the winner actually getting the island as the grand prize. However, these videos are clearly hugely expensive, and Jimmy revealed on Twitter that he\u2019s actually losing money on his main channel. \u201cAlmost all my recent videos lost me a ridiculous amount of money,\u201d he began. \u201cThat\u2019s why I started the gaming channel so I can use the extra money to run the main at a loss and just focus on making the best videos possible.\u201d Almost all my recent videos lost me a ridiculous amount of money.
