That's a pretty weak connection considering that is a relatively large percentage of rich YouTube people.

Paul’s and idiot too. But I would argue he tends to be much more destructive in the short term for people who he interacts with.

I mean, he’s an idiot. He has little understanding of the world, and a simplistic view of how it works.

I paid less than that for mine. With 2 Mill I could probably buy most of my block. So I assume it’s a solid middle class neighborhood he bought into. Though he also bought off market for some of them, so he might have paid quite a bit more for those ones.

Let's be honest. Bigger issues he hasn't considered.

I mean, your boss may not be your landlord, but they can often still control your ability to have housing.

“The employees are smart enough to recognize it as a better deal or they will continue to pay rent elsewhere.”

Maybe. No. Maybe (but probably no). Definitely not.

Oh it almost definitely is a sign for a bigger issue. Either coming or already here.

Indentured servitude requires the legal compulsion to continue working for the time of the contract regardless of want (the US actually has specific laws defining and Outlawing indentured service).

“Because Mr. Beast has essentially created a company town, which isn’t a great thing.”

That's because you are equating criticism of his wealth and how he makes it with jealousy of his wealth.

I mean, philanthropy is usually a scam. Often used to launder your reputation.

“Getting other people more than they had is only good if it leaves you with less than you had.”

Eh, no more so than a paycheck (which you also can end effectively at your employers pleasure).

Does it count as income? Fringe benefits often aren't counted as income.

Also is he controlling the local government, forcing them to live there, and or charging exorbitant fees.

Guess Donny is going to sell a lot more NFTs.

I mean either what the lawyer initially said is true (which seems unlikely since a restraining order was both requested and granted), or she’s doing her best to defend a client who is at the least more guilty than initially claimed.

Cool. Thanks for the clarification.
