Quick, let's help him out! Take all his money to make his life easier!

He could sell all his assets, purchase a middle class house in cash, and probably retire and have absolutely nothing to do if he wanted to and be set for life
This guy can go fuck himself
Exactly this. When he was 'broke ' he was just a kid and couldn't by a Lambo because he was bored. Now he has an amount of money that requires responsibility, so much so that professionals are required to handle it. Sooo stressful.
He doesn't know what Broke is. Honestly, most people that say they are don't.
I doubt he's ever had to pass on brunch so he wouldn't have to worry about his check to the gas company bouncing.
Never had to pawn his stereo to cover rent so his girlfriend wouldn't finally kick him out.
Never had to calculate whether the bus fare to and from the plasma clinic was actually worth the trip for a donation.
"ah yes there goes Sisyphus rolling his solid gold boulder up his hill, that he owns btw.."
if it's so much easier then just give away every penny why dontcha? oh he only 'gives' for content
Even if I were being charitable to say what he meant was not being famous is easier, it's still such a backhanded remark to make - I'd rather deal with the problems of fame than the looming threat of the poverty line any day of the week.
What he means is it would be a lot easier for him to have adult conversations with underage children on the internet if everyone wasn't always watching him. How's he going to buy and hang cartoon CP on the walls if he's poor though?
The thing is, in this age, fame is a choice (to those it is given to). He has enough money to retire into obscurity, living a simple life of comfort. He chooses not not to.
Where I'm from, if you're evicted at any time during the 9-10 months of winter you'll probably die unless you find another place in time which can be incredibly difficult and risky depending on why you were evicted.
Learning about idol scenes and how hardcore it is to be an idol makes me feel very uncomfortable, but I somehow find Mr Beast to be a fish worth this ocean. He's somehow uniquely compatible with what youtube wants now, and I doubt it's stirs him wrong. In my mind, he echoes what other creators feel about all that bs.
hello i am the river
Ha. He told us he's never been broke without telling us he's never been broke.
"Living is so much easier when you've been stabbed 37 times"
The only thing making his life difficult is his constant need for attention
Well you know what they say: mo money, mo problems.
Which can be extrapolated to no money, no problems. Right?
Right???
the fucked up thing is that it's almost true, there's a level of wealth where people are generally optimally happy. Look at people who get enough money to buy a house and comfortably retire early on without needing to worry about affording normal things again, something like that is peak contentment in life.
I sincerely do not understand why a mentally healthy person would ever want a to be richer than that, it means you have to do a bunch of publicity shit and other miserable stuff and it doesn't really benefit you much.
Broken people can't afford a house... they are happy if they get through the month with +-0.
I think another important factor is how famous you are. I’d imagine it’s really annoying to get recognised anywhere you go…
This feels like its taken out of context
But he also said dumb things like the youtube algorithm being perfect so maybe its not taken out of context
lol. This is exactly what rich people say. I take it this guy's a millionaire ?
Its not the money that makes it harder its the being known by everyone. But having too much money can be more of a burden in theory. (I'll let you know when I make it if its that bad chat.)
