    tbh despite how accurate this description it i understand why he does that. To give away money you need to have money, and he makes his money by creating videos on YouTube, a video where someone does a challenge and earns a million dollars is going to be much more popular than a video of him just walking around and giving people money (again)

      Yup. It’s like an actor getting typecast as a tough guy who always kicks ass and never gets his ass kicked, makes tons of money from it, and then everyone complaining about him only ever playing a tough guy.

      I’m sure a few names come to mind. But they’re rich and stuck in that role because most people subconsciously agreed they should be rich and stuck in that role (by liking those movies and going to see them).
