I don’t think there’s a lot going on in Jimmy’s head. Jimmy got his start on youtube by counting to 100,000. Then he just did whatever video idea he thought would get the most views. He’s not a creative or intelligent person. Jimmy never really stopped counting.
Not sure if you referenced it on purpose, but Folding Ideas recently published a deep dive video essay on the Mr. Beast empire, and I believe that “Jimmy never stopped counting” was their conclusion as well.
It’s a great video. I’d recommend it if you haven’t seen it.
Idle hands and all that. Someone this vacuous with this much access to resources sounds like the perfect target for manipulation by someone with ill intent. Whatever it is may not have been his idea, but he also doesn’t seem like the person to say no to a paycheck for literally any reason.
