MrBeast makes Forbes 30 under 30 list second year in a row
In May, MrBeast came to Kinston and built a chocolate factory to give away in one of his YouTube videos. Forbes announced that MrBeast is in their 2023 30 under 30 class, consisting of 400 pioneers reshaping the future of 20 industries and the world. MrBeast also made the list in 2021.
“MrBeast earned $54 million last year, including $32 million from ads across his dozen-plus channels and $9 million from sponsored content,” said Forbes in a post on Instagram. “He’s the most-subscribed-to YouTube personality in the world, with 112 million. His earnings, already the highest of any social media creator, are set to double in 2022 to as much as $110 million.”
