The Unexpected and Controversial Rise of MrBeast to YouTube Superstardom

Very little information was made public online, so we don’t know much about MrBeast’s early life. We do know that MrBeast was born on May 7, 1998, in Wichita, Kansas. Subsequently, he and his older brother, Charles “C.J.” Donaldson, relocated and settled in the city of Greenville.

MrBeast completed his secondary education at Greenville, South Carolina’s private Greenville Christian Academy in 2016. Not much info is known about his family’s financial situation, but judging from the tuition to that school (thousands of dollars), they probably weren’t broke by any means.
