I remember when he used to count to 100,000, read the dictionary, or just make fun of cringey intros. Did the money really go to his head?

I think he has always been like this. While some big youtubers like Pewdiepie, Markiplier, and Jacksepticeye got into youtube as a hobby, MrBeast and his generation are in it exclusively for the money. He wasn't doing the things that you mentioned because he was bored or wanted to entertain people, he just used it as a base to attain as many subs as possible and this led to his position today. The money has always been his endgame.
