Just as his “stage name” goes, the YouTuber has had a looming presence on the biggest video streaming platform. With his long-form and short-form content, Mr Beast has been ruling the world of YouTube for a long time.

However, fans of the creator and his channel remain unimpressed. Many say that they expected it to be more. One user said it was not as much as they had expected, and others chimed in, saying that this was way less than they had imagined.

Others, however, pointed out that Mr Beast wears many hats and must be generating income from his other YouTube channels and other commercial endeavors. According to Twitch broadcaster Tectone, 90% of a major creator’s revenue comes from advertising. Therefore, the $4.23 million may not even represent a portion of his total income. Since Mr Beast gets those a lot, this number is not the final amount he receives every month.
A co-founder of ViewStats and a member of Mr Beast’s “Ideas & Thumbnails Team” denied the screenshot’s legitimacy, referring to it as a “fake screenshot.” He allegedly said that the numbers were “close enough,” requiring just minimal revisions, despite questions about the veracity of the leak.

One thing people online could agree on is that no matter which way you look, YouTubers are rich, and there is no denying that.
Celebrity Net Worth estimated Mr Beast’s total net worth to be almost $1 billion. His YouTube channel, companies like Feastables and Lunchly, and other commercial ventures appear to be the main sources of his fortune. There are conflicting reports on his earnings, too. Where Celebrity Net Worth assumes it is $50 Million, Forbes puts his in the range of $80-85 million annually.
Interestingly, Mr Beast’s endeavors go beyond YouTube. With more than $20 million in prize money Beast Games, in collaboration with Amazon, set multiple world records in its opening season.
