[RyanJAD22]

I know this is a old topic but it still blows my mind! The fact that I have been watching shaycarl from basically the start of his vlogs! Seeing him build this huge company that sold for 500 million is amazing! Its so inspiring to me and makes me want to make a change in the youtube world!

Maker using deceptive business tactics? Le gasp! I kind if feel like someone wants some of that $500 million. I expect this to be solved very quickly with some behind the scenes check writing.

Don't put your mouse ears on the deal just yet. Before the ink is signed, another suitor is courting.

The Danny Zappin guy well knew about that, bet he's one of the "execs that contributed to the company" that get part of the $75M in the sale
