But according to a post on X, the YouTuber may have bitten off more than he can chew after promising a man $10,000 in cash reward for each day spent in a grocery store. The premise was bought by Jimmy solely for the challenge. In the post, he mentioned that the man has been breezing through the challenge and is showing no signs of stopping after weeks. Meaning, there is a chance MrBeast might for broke. The post reads:

"I messed up.. I bought a random grocery store and told a random person I’d give him $10,000 everyday he lives in it and it’s been weeks and he shows no signs of ever leaving. I’m gonna go broke."
