Rise to Stardom

The journey of Max Beaumont started as a coder when he was spending a summer vacation with his family in Shelter Island, New York. Out of boredom, he decided to start his own website, and convinced his father to let him use his birthday money to buy a domain and set up a website. He learned coding on his own with online help, and created the video sharing website 'TubeFreeNow.com' which averaged 100k hits per month, and eventually sold for $2000 in September 2007. Looking to develop iPhone games, he next joined the GameSalad community, through which he released the collaborative game, 'Project Boom'. The game earned high ratings and was featured over 146 times globally in the iTunes store on launch day, and even reached the top 5 list on the store. He has created many apps in the past few years and designed websites for several different companies. He has had a YouTube channel since June 2013, but in September 2017, he started to focus more on the platform by promising his subscribers that he would regularly upload videos.

Later Ventures

Riding on the success of his website and game, a 17-year-old Max Beaumont had set a much larger goal in front of himself: to create a successful social network before completing his graduation. He failed to realize his vision of the 'Casso' network within the self-imposed short time frame of one year, but he learned valuable lessons on how to hire and work with freelancers. He then conceptualized the 'Chains' network, which would allow users to anonymously share 10 seconds long videos with friends, who in turn be able to add their videos of 10 seconds length and create a chain of up to 10 such videos connected together. He even started to aggressively promote his upcoming platform on existing social media to woo their users. However, this attempt also failed due to lack of funding, but years later he got in touch with another group that had created a similar app with similar goals, and supported that initiative by promoting it on his own social media. He is a huge fan of Mark Zuckerberg and Elon Musk, and is focusing on Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Virtual Reality (VR) at the moment.

Controversies & Scandals

Max Beaumont was a part of Jake Paul's YouTube group 'Team 10', but quit the group in August 2017 following a nasty controversy involving two other members of the group, Ricky “FaZe” Banks and Megan Zelly. Banks was accused of assaulting Zelly at a night club, but Beaumont, who was present there at the moment, came to Banks' support and left the group so that he could reveal his side freely. Paul subsequently hit back at him, but since then, a number of people connected to the group have come forward with more shocking details about the group. While Zelly had shown a bruise on social media, many have identified the mark as makeup.

Personal Life
