Mr Rule

the fucked up thing is that it's almost true, there's a level of wealth where people are generally optimally happy. Look at people who get enough money to buy a house and comfortably retire early on without needing to worry about affording normal things again, something like that is peak contentment in life.
I sincerely do not understand why a mentally healthy person would ever want a to be richer than that, it means you have to do a bunch of publicity shit and other miserable stuff and it doesn't really benefit you much.

This feels like its taken out of context
But he also said dumb things like the youtube algorithm being perfect so maybe its not taken out of context

Life is much simpler being a regular middle class kid living with your parents than an adult millionaire everyone knows and expects money from. He never knew what actually being broke and responsible for yourself or a family as an adult was.

if it's so much easier then just give away every penny why dontcha? oh he only 'gives' for content
- He gives for profit.

Even if I were being charitable to say what he meant was not being famous is easier, it's still such a backhanded remark to make - I'd rather deal with the problems of fame than the looming threat of the poverty line any day of the week.
- The thing is, in this age, fame is a choice (to those it is given to). He has enough money to retire into obscurity, living a simple life of comfort. He chooses not not to.
- What he means is it would be a lot easier for him to have adult conversations with underage children on the internet if everyone wasn't always watching him. How's he going to buy and hang cartoon CP on the walls if he's poor though?
- Where I'm from, if you're evicted at any time during the 9-10 months of winter you'll probably die unless you find another place in time which can be incredibly difficult and risky depending on why you were evicted.
- Learning about idol scenes and how hardcore it is to be an idol makes me feel very uncomfortable, but I somehow find Mr Beast to be a fish worth this ocean. He's somehow uniquely compatible with what youtube wants now, and I doubt it's stirs him wrong. In my mind, he echoes what other creators feel about all that bs.

Well you know what they say: mo money, mo problems.
Which can be extrapolated to no money, no problems. Right?
Right???

Real "Marie Antoinette having an entire fake rustic village built to pretend to be a peasant for a day" energy.
- Honestly less relatable even than that. At least Marie Antoinette had very little contact to the outside world, so her sheltered life makes sense. Mr. Beast has no such excuse.

Quick, let's help him out! Take all his money to make his life easier!
- I think Good Charlotte published a how to guide a few years ago

"ah yes there goes Sisyphus rolling his solid gold boulder up his hill, that he owns btw.."
- Sisyphus was a king so this is probably accurate

The only thing making his life difficult is his constant need for attention
- Literally this. He could retire comfortably at literally any time. He's choosing not to.

This is why he keeps running his crypto scams. He's hoping that will lose him money so he can be poor again.
- Nope, not at all. He wants all of us to be broke, and therefore live on easy mode. A true altruist if ever there's been one.

Its not the money that makes it harder its the being known by everyone. But having too much money can be more of a burden in theory. (I'll let you know when I make it if its that bad chat.)
