Donaldson confirmed his billionaire status earlier this year on the Diary of a CEO podcast, humorously noting, “In my actual bank account, I have less than one million.” He explained that he pays himself only enough to cover his personal expenses, preferring to reinvest in his projects.
To mark the milestone, MrBeast recreated the viral “Hood MrBeast” meme on social media, posing with stacks of cash and captioning it, “You guys can stop asking me to recreate the meme now 😭.”
His achievement distinguishes him from fellow creators like PewDiePie and the Stokes Twins, as the only one to reach billionaire status entirely through self-made efforts.
