Mr. Beast

 



By: Tanner 

Hello, my name is Jimmy Donaldson, also known as Mr. Beast. I believe I'm the greatest youtuber of all time for many different reasons. I started on YouTube young, then I slowly started to get viewers and subscribers. So I started to try new and different things and this led to 4 different channels along with food labels and a lot of philanthropy! Now at 26 I have 250 million subscribers and that’s how I got so many views on the internet and let me tell you more about it.

I was born on May 7,1998. When I was a kid, I grew up in Greenville, North Carolina. I went to college for about two weeks and then dropped out and went to make Minecraft gaming videos on YouTube. When I got a YouTube channel my friend Chris was the first subscriber on the channel. Sometime later I started to get big on the internet and I slowly started to get famous. In 2007, my parents got divorced and that was a tough time for me.

In 2017 I made a video where I counted to 100,000 and that video got so many likes and views, I started to get more famous. More video’s I have made are watching Jake Paul's “It’s Everyday Bro” music video for ten hours straight. Another video I made is called spinning a fidget spinner for 24 hours straight! Here are some of my “last to remove hand” videos last to remove hand gets Lamborghini, house, private jet, and also some other crazy stuff! Also, one more going through the same drive through 1,000 times!

                I earn $600 million to $700 million dollars a year and I say I still don’t think of myself as wealthy, as I put all my money into videos. In October 2023 I reached 200 million subscribers and in March 2024 I reached 250 million subscribers!!! I’m 26 years old and I have 250 million subscribers and my goal is to make “Even better” videos, emphasizing continuous improvement. In June 2017 I gave away a huge amount of money to a homeless person and ever since then I've been giving money away to people who need it! In 2020 I launched Mrbeast Burger, in that same year I started a new channel called Beast Philanthropy and in 2022 I launched a chocolate business called Feastables. Since then I have gained 23.3 million subscribers on my Beast philanthropy channel (which is about the population of New York!)

The success I've had over the years by making great videos is why I belive I'm the greatest YouTuber of all time the reasons why my videos are so great is because my videos are crazy and weird. I hope you guys liked hearing some of my life story and my highest achievements in life. I hope you guys had a wonderful time with this presentation and who knows maybe one day I'll give you 10,000 dollars!!

Bill Gates

By: Brett 




Bill Gates is an amazing person. He is most known for being the co-founder of Microsoft but has done so much more than that. I loved researching him and I learned so much. Bill Gates was born on October 28, 1955 in Seattle, Washington. His full name is William Henry Gates, III.  
Bill’s parents are named William H. Gates, Sr. and Mary Maxwell Gates. His mom died in 1994. He is the middle child. His older sister’s name is Kristi and his younger sister’s name is Libby. As a child, he was small for his age and was bullied. His family was very competitive, and there was always a reward for winning.  
In school, he was often excused from class to program computers. Bill and his friends would get in trouble for finding bugs in programs and using that for free computer time. Bill and his friend Kent Evans started helping their school with programming. Kent was Bill’s best friend. When they were Juniors, Kent died in a mountain climbing accident. Bill said it was the saddest day of his life.  
For college, Bill went to Harvard. He dropped out after two years and started his first computer software company in 1975 with his friend, Paul AllenThis company become Microsoft. Microsoft started working with IBM for a little while but that fell apart. In 1985, Microsoft released Windows for people to purchase. Bill was very involved in Microsoft until 2006. He left to spend more time helping people and to create charities.  
Bill married his wife, Melinda French in Hawaii on January 1, 1994. They have three children and live in Washington. Bill Gates net worth is currently $99.5 billion. He once said that he does not like being one of the richest people because he does not like the attention it brings. 

In 2000, Bill and his wife created the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. The foundation helps provide money for global development and health issues. He and his wife also donate to other charities and organizations and in 2007 were reported to be the second-most generous people. They had given over $28 billion to charity and they said they will eventually donate 95% of their wealth.  
Bill Gates seems like a very nice man. He is smart and generous. I had a lot of fun learning about him and everything he did to help create computers as we know them today. I hope you learned something about him as well.
