I heard somewhere that Mr. Beast is miserable trying to keep up his brand. I hope that's true
honestly i think mr. beast is the kind of guy who doesn't really know what misery and joy are. you know, the kind of guy who would be working voluntary overtime in like a warehouse or something if he were born poor because he just doesn't know what to do with his time if he isn't just increasing the number in his bank account. the kind of guy who has a girlfriend because guys are supposed to have girlfriends. everything is an obligation/responsibility
when i made that connection it made a lot of sense to me. ive met guys like that in warehouses before. they'll literally be working like 90 hour weeks across multiple jobs but driving to work every day (in the deep south summer) with broken AC in their car because the car still works and they just don't care. they'll be hoarding money like a dragon and never spending any of it, because society tells them acquiring money is how you win and they figure that if nothing brings them joy they might as well win.
According to an interview with him, he literally sees his time with his girlfriend as transactional, that he considers every hour spent with her as being an hour he's lost money because he's not making content
It's honestly astounding to me the level of shit some people will put up with. That poor woman.
i mean she's got a rich boyfriend who has like less than no expectations of her, she might have a real boyfriend on the side and just goes out with mrbeast every now and again for free food and/or gifts
sounds like a good deal to me, i'd do it
Or maybe she actually loves him but will probably never get that same affection back?
well i guess, but that just seems really unlikely to me because how could you even form enough of a connection with such a cynical husk to feel that way? guy barely makes time to go on a date with his girlfriend and he's anxious about it the entire time, i can't imagine he was much better about making time for people who weren't even his girlfriend yet
My main point is that humans are weird and it’s kinda shitty to assume she’s some kind of gold digger or something. Maybe she actually likes the guy? Ultimately we don’t know their dynamic.
