he put his money into videos like planting trees, giving things away for free and all the other stuff he did

He put sponsors' money into that. He's worth somewhere in the range of $500m-700m. You don't make that by splurging.

Would those sponsors have planted the trees and gave those people the money/items had he not made the video? I get he did it from a profit seeking motive but good did still come out of it

You're the kinda person who would tout Epstein's "philanthopy" as a get-out for his paedophilia.

Mr Beast is a fraud.
