From zero income to an empire: what YouTube showed MrBeast

Abstract generation in progress

Jimmy Donaldson is living proof that money on YouTube doesn't come immediately. The guy spent five years studying algorithms, sitting in a room without a single view. His mom even kicked him out of the house for this obsession.

The turning point came in 2017: he filmed a video counting to 100,000 hours straight. It seemed absurd. But at that moment, YouTube updated its algorithm in favor of long viewing times, and meaningless content unexpectedly went viral.

Now MrBeast is the king of content: each monthly video gathers at least 10 million views, and on crazy ideas like (fireworks for millions, Lego towers on a helicopter) he earns as much as he spends.

Main lesson: perfect content is not needed — obsession with the algorithm and iron will are required. The first five years don't count. But if you survive — an empire will grow.
