Have you ever heard of Kuwait? Well, this oil-rich country in the Middle East is home to the world's strongest (AKA most valuable) currency. It's called the Kuwaiti Dinar, and as of right now, $ 1 USD = .31 KWD. In other words, if you go to the ATM and take out "$100" -- you will receive 31 Dinars. This is largely due to the surplus of oil exports in Kuwait (they sit on 9% of the world's total reserves) -- and all countries need to purchase KWD to get their hands on this precious oil.
But what can $100 even get you in Kuwait? It's time to find out in this exciting video!
And stay tuned on my main channel this weekend, I have my favorite story of the year coming out from "the world's hottest country!!"

Stocks, bitcoin, forex and cryptocurrency are falling and bond yields are rising, but markets still don't seem convinced the Federal Reserve will pursue plans to keep increasing interest rates until inflation is under control. I'm still at a crossroads deciding if to liquidate my $150,000 stock portfolio, what's the best way to take advantage of this bear market?
These strategies are quite rigorous for the regular. As a matter of fact, they are mostly successfully carried out by pros who have had a great deal of skillset.
I’ve been on b0th end of the spectrum,
I was investing on my own for about
years, did my own study and analysis
before actually buying, things became
rather difficult not until a colleague introduced me to my current financial
advisor. He has helped me convert my $50,000 portfolio into $250,000
my financial advisor is
*JACKSON STEN MARSH* I found him on a CNBC interview where he was featured Afterwards I reached out to him. he has since then provided me with entry and exit points in securities I focus on
Thanks for this tip. His website popped up on Google immediately I searched him up. I read him resume and it seems pretty. I wrote him and I’m waiting on him reply.
Bots galore
I am from Bahrain which is world 2nd most valuable currency, when I visit Kuwait I can say that:
- petrol, cloths and hotels are cheaper than Bahrain
- while food is expensive, but food in fancy places is similar to food prices in avarage restaurant, so I always dine in fancy restaurant and that will make it looks more affordable to fancy restaurant in Bahrain
so yeah Kuwait can be affordable if you think smart 😉
BTW food there is tasy no matter what, so u will never regret it regardless of the price
Gotta get them BDs
Grew up in Kuwait and some things are expensive but, the salary in the middle east is high enough to counter the expenses. The food is 10/10 and the city is beautiful. If anyone gets an opportunity to go then I recommend doing so as the people there are also very friendly.
I’m 18 from the U.S and want to work there
@@Opti_Hollandia thank you for this information. God bless
Bro. There is trash everywhere, and most the people working here have a salary below 300KD or around $977 per month
@@onedive9186bro just keep quiet 😂
Same
Just went through Norway on my travels and loved it. Like anywhere, you can make it pretty much as expensive as you want. Hostels and buying from the grocery store to cook yourself so on. Regular life though...
20 pounds for two small beers at a bar
15 pounds for a kebab at 3am
You also can't buy alcohol from stores after 8pm so keep that in mind if you'd like some but are on a budget.
I was born in kuwait and its small but amazing its cheap and expensive at the same time Thank you drew binsky for visiting my country
Wow! This was an unsolved question to me for a long time thanks for sharing this valuable video 💕
I’ve lived in Kuwait for the past 3 months, and I’ve gotten used to the KD. Love this Country. Very diverse.
I think I have met you in the Avenues the other day, Texas Roadhouse
@@saqeralmutairi3467 I have been to the Texas Roadhouse in Avenues. However, I was across the way at Cheesecake Factory, the other day.
I have not been there
I am born ,raised and still living in Kuwait. Even though I am from Pakistan but this country feels like home but still I love my Pakistan more than any other country.
Wow!! It’s nice!! Dinnar is powerful!
May Allah protect and bless them with more . Love Kuwait 🇰🇼 and KSA 🇸🇦 from Yemen 🇾🇪 ❤️

May God bless you ......I hope good things happen for Yemen inshaAllah .

Born and lived in Kuwait for 18 yrs🇰🇼🇰🇼🇰🇼🇰🇼🇰🇼
I have been living here in Kuwait since 6 years It's a nice country with nice people..I love 🇰🇼
Acha😢
Was raised in Qatar and Kuwait. Before Iraqi invasion.... Kuwait was real utopia and It's currency was 10 times more powerful than today.
3:16 i was in Norway once and i saw this exact Mcdonalds, Its located in Bergen and in a very old building.
Thanks for visiting here man.
Born and raised in Kuwait, it is beautiful in the winter (the summer I wouldn’t recommend) the food is awesome, the city is amazing, would recommend to anyone trying to visit Kuwait.
Just visit it in winter
I am living here in Kuwait 🇰🇼 and Kuwaiti Dinar is a high value. I am living here in kuwait for more than 12 years and I found it this is a good country. ❤️🌷 my second home 🏠 now everything is expensive but still fine because we don’t have taxes.
Kuwait sounds like a great country to travel, but I can’t find someone to join me traveling there 😢 There’s no travel agency that offers Kuwait tours too. I’ll regret not traveling there after I die 😭
@@colossalfeet it is too hot for you this is the hottest place on earth
@@centerous411 I can choose to travel there during autumn or winter 😏
@@colossalfeet we don’t have something called autumn here, only summer, half summer(spring), and(supposed to be)winter 😂
@@musaeded5082 Lol, I see how you designate your seasons 😆 By the way, do you know how I can search for any local Kuwait guide? If I find one, I may visit there in early next year
I wish I can visit Kuwait again..
oh im kuwati and i love your videos i wish i met you great content
Living in Kuwait from last 15 years ❤love you Kuwait 🇰🇼
Welcome brother to Kuwait.
I lived in Kuwait my whole life and it’s amazing
Im from kuwait its the best country i love kuwait im born from kuwait and im muslim im still in kuwait i live in kuwait
As a Kuwaiti and a big fan I’ve been waiting for this video for a long time
Are Kuwaiti racist? In terms of religion or colour etc..?
@@spidypant4605 No, we are not two elements. The religion of Islam does not distinguish between color or race
@@spidypant4605 no not racist at least not on my experience
Kuwait is amazing great people and good food 🤩🇰🇼🇰🇼
I was born in Kuwait. Moved to the states at 14. Miss it.
I’d love to take you around Kuwait sometime and show you how cheap and expensive it can be. I’m a Kuwaiti National BTW
Im a Kuwaiti and a fan on your channel and im used to The dinar
3:53 No taxes? Sounds like paradise!
Welcome to Kuwait I hope you had fun 💖
Everything is free, he said. Conclusion: Value of currency is high doesn't mean expensive and vice versa.
Good vlog Drew.. informative on value of currency and cost.
I miss Kuwait so much 💔 I wish I could go back 💔
Man got robbed in the restaurant
im 100% kuwaiti and im proud you joined us!
Was born and raised in Qatar till age of 18 and now going abroad for studies.. After I've lived all these years I never felt like moving to any other country. I felt very sad when leaving...🥺
Yeah it’s tough, and you’ll always want to go back. Not many places in the world you can go jet skiing or something like that in canals or go see a friend by taking the water ways in west bay
Different kind of lifestyle! Haha
You are always welcome to Kuwait ❤
Me and my family have grown up and lived in Kuwait for years and years . Whenever I go anywhere else and come back I feel warm and welcomed for me Kuwait is home.
This is what happens to most of the people who exchange their homeland currency to dollar. They felt same as you do this time. Being robbed by American dollar.
saved my project thank you. 🤑😀😀
Hey i am from kuwait I love your videos and Our country has the best food and for a whole burger in kuwait it is like cents.
DUDE! YOUR FROM AL JARHA IM THRERE TOO! I REMEMBER THAT SHOP LOL
Lived in KWI for two years. Yes the KWI Dinar was 3.74 USD to KWI Dinar back when I was there. The best mall in KWI was Avenues. I had lunch at a mall was 9 KWI Dinar. Gas was about .90 per gallon.
Unfortunately food in malls is expensive, but outside of it its extremely cheap if you know where to eat
I Live in Kuwait and work in the Avenues l wish u would pop by am a big fan Drew
Moroccan raised in Kuwait ❤
Anyone else live in Kuwait 🇰🇼
Wellcome brother
I love kuwait

Wow never thought u meant to kuwait I live there
Wow Kuwait is cool the currency is crazy 3$ for 1 Dinnar love currency videos keep up the great work
Oman has the same currency exchange rate
@@centerous411 No it's weaker.
@@centerous411 no, Oman has the 3rd strongest currency behind Kuwait and Bahrain.

Maya Angelou.....
I have in Kuwait lately...it's so amazing living here 😍 ✨️
I think the guy took you to one of the expensive resturants. you can find a lot of cheaper options for same cuisine.
A few things I would note:
-while the KWD is strong, oil and lebanese food is cheap. It doesn’t mean everything else is cheap. Food like sushi would definitely cost more. Buying land or an appartment is almost impossible.
-Since the weather is very hot and streets are not pedestrian-friendly, you need to make time to exercise. Which means you have to drive to and pay for a gym. Gym are expensive, it can go up to 60KWD a month. Any physical activity like squash, swimming…etc…will cost money.
- insurance companies don’t function very well. If your car gets into an accident, you’re in for trouble (and public transport is not effective).
One more thing, families live together in Kuwait as a cultural norm (adult children stay with their parents even if they can easily afford a rent). And Kuwaiti people do NOT create babies before marriage and a stable job. So they work their finances with low risk and stability.
I just need to stress on that because I get foreigners who think Kuwaitis live in some free paradise without working…and I think it’s an unfair judgement.
This! Yes we are blessed in many ways, but very unfortunate in others. Its nice to mentions pros and cons. People seem to be super defensive about the cons. But every place has ita own issues.
Im from kuwait, the only expensive things in Kuwait are mostly imported products, businesses need to make a profit from the spreads between getting the products like tvs and electronics and factor in thier shipping cost, which shipping companies will increase based on the gas prices. Ships and planes will need to increase their prices to account for fuel expense, so it ends up being more of a domino effect. Things made and grown IN Kuwait like ice cream or water or food meat veggies, coke, pepsi, etc, is cheap, gasoline is cheap..so it depends
I’ve lived in Kuwait from ages 1 month to 7.5 years
Kuwait will always stay in my heart
You type so well for a 7 and half yeaar old....
Thank you guys for loving Kuwait it is my heart I live in Kuwait is my country
May Allah bless Kuwait love From Pakistan ❤️🇵🇰❤️
I am from Kuwait 🤪💖
As someone who lives in the state of New York I wish we were completely tax free. From sales tax to income tax. I was in Alaska this summer and there’s no sales tax and no income tax. It was a breath of fresh air for sure. But never would I live in a state like Alaska. Brutal winters and the sunlight patterns would mess me up. Almost no daylight in the winter to never ending daylight in the summer.
If U.S is tax free, then how will they bomb brown Muslim kids?
Unfunny Crude Joke aside, tax in U.S is just for military and nothing else.
I'm originally from Central NY and I've lived in kuwait for many many years... love it ❤❤❤❤
Are you still in Kuwait?
I would love to show you around
I was born, from, and raised in Kuwait, and I’m proud of it
Beautiful ❤️❤️❤️ video
This video was all over the place. maybe make a podcast
half of that 30 KD is only for the bansin food is a little bit cheap, whenever I went vacation to Philippines I found it that prices like restaurant, branded clothes still cheaper here in Kuwait and the styles more preferable here in Kuwait my daily life just easy and comfortable Thanks to “Allah”swt I feel the daily blessings
Yayyy I’m actually from Kuwait and love your channel so much
i love your videos keep up the good work
Do they say what we say in AZ about the heat? “Yeah but it’s a dry heat” 😅
I am a Kuwaiti and i am proud
$70 for Hummus and Falafel is crazy exp
I think the choice of restaurant is to blame for that. The cheapest place I’ve seen in kuwait to buy falafel where it’s goes for 32 cents for 6 falafels And it’s so good.
It’s just the restaurant they chose there way cheaper restaurants like a full grill is just 7 kd $22.5
amazing , loving your vids bro
I love falafel.
I am Egyptian and I was born & raised in Kuwait most my life & I love Kuwait 🇰🇼
🇰🇼🤝🇪🇬
For anyone interested that mean it's a 1.31 for a gallon of gas
Kuwait is one of the best countries in the middle east am kuwaiti and if u wanna visit it you should ASAP especially in winter where the weather is cold unless if u like to feel hot u could always visit cause summer is 9 months in a year unlike winter that is 3 months only and our summer is REALLY hot so embraces urselfs lol
Visit okay, but is there good jobs for foreigners?
Omg, I'm bringing my family in kuwait.
10 years now in kuwait 🇰🇼 😊
Welcome to my country of Kuwait
Thanks!
Kuwait sounds like a great country to travel, but I can’t find someone to join me traveling there 😢 There’s no travel agency that offers Kuwait tours too. I’ll regret not traveling there after I die 😭
@@colossalfeet I got u
may god bless kuwait
He is right, obviously you didn’t study economics in high school let alone college.
Wellcome to Kuwait ❤️❤️❤️
Ok so when and where can i meet you??
Please can you make more currency videos they are really interesting 💵💴💶💷
Lord have mercy.. now thats the life!!!
To be fair... that restaurant is more on the fancy side. You could easily have a very large very filling hearty healthy meal for less than $3. Chickpeas pot ($1), a pot of aash - a vegetable and bean stew ($1). 5 large Irani breads (30 cents). Those 3 wouls be enough for 2 people with a few breads extra.
You can even have falafel sanwiches (30 cents each). Samosas and other fried street foods (some 10 pcs for 30 cents)
Known this for years shits wild
Edited: n in uni I've met a couple of people who are from kuwait, they're loaded
I am from India . lives in Kuwait with my family . We loves Kuwait. Both my daughters are born in Kuwait.
You have a group of Filipinas behind you while you were taking out cash HAHAHAHA
been in Kuwait, now in KSA. can't get over with Kuwait. Here we have taxes, Kuwait don't. It's a lot cheaper to buy any stuff there compared here even on holidays were you can get offers.
I bet it was cheaper than my home country. But expect higher prices on commodities that the state can't produce, since there are import taxes and those are perishables.
Omg do you not have a meza, ?
