I don't think Jimmy was rich before he was a youtuber. And yeah, I don't understand the hate either. I don't watch a very large % of his content, but the stuff I've seen is fairly harmless and generally seems to benefit others.

He was just on that youtube grind from an early age, and it felt like it was his work more than simply dumb luck that got him into the spotlight.

And yeah, his burger "chain" doesn't have any actual locations, you order via apps only and they come from other restaurants that follow a specific recipe. These ghost chains seem to be on the rise and without knowing all the specifics regarding how the profits are divided they seem to be a net positive for restaurants who participate. There are articles about struggling restaurants using their kitchen to fulfill orders for a half dozen ghost franchises to stay busy/profitable.

So yeah, he seems to be a positive influence at best and a neutral influence that you can easily ignore at worst.
