MrBeast reveals his idea about how to run a company
In the recent podcast with Sam Parr and Shaan Puri ft. Hasan Minhaj, MrBeast revealed how he runs his company. In an answer to how MrBeast got inspired by Steve Jobs on how to run a company, he said, “I think the biggest thing is that Steve became a billionaire from Pixar, not even Apple.”
He further added that he was more attracted to the fact that Jobs actually made money out of creativity rather than hardware. He said, “And so like the fact that he could go to this just not even hardware company more creative storytelling company. And just kick a** and create films like toy story and all these other bangers.”
Notably, MrBeast in many of his interviews and podcasts had said that the way Steve Jobs created a legacy for himself inspired him and he wants to do something similar. Thus, he is always motivated by the fact that he too can change the world the way Steve Jobs, Bill Gates, and Elon Musk did.

During the podcast itself, MrBeast further added that the case study of Steve Jobs buying back Apple after selling Pixar to Disney is still a motivation to him. He said, “Just build that company up to whatever it was like. Then Disney buys it for 7 billion and meanwhile, Apple is just falling to the ground and about to go out of business.”
