4 days clean now. It’s rough today. I commented on the last video I was on 24hrs of no percs and quiting them. That comment now got over 100 likes and 50+ comments. I’m on day 4 clean now and it’s been horrible. But the support from everyone and ppl I don’t know has keep me going. I ain’t make it through these 4 days to go back now. Thankyou everyone for the support on the last comment.
Even though I don't know you I am VERY PROUD of you. I hope one day I can be as strong as you. I've been hooked on those fucking things since I had cancer in 2003, so I am going on 20 years of addiction and I can honestly say, the pain pills have damaged my life more than the cancer ever could
Jay Williams needs to be at 1 MILLION subscribers!! It's not just entertainment!! It's KNOWLEDGE!! He isn't bragging about prison, he's trying to keep people who are on the wrong path FROM going to prison!!
What’s good Jay! I’m a 29 yr old… I just started my own pool cleaning company in Fort Myers, FL in May. Watching you and Banky really inspired me to stop being nervous or scared of failure. Keep up the good work and I’m sure you new business will be successful just as your construction business.
Keep with it man. When i was young i had an opportunity in fla an i was afraid to risk it so i came back home to the sure job i had. Its now 15 years later an the people who took the risk are now rich collecting money an im just a guy working hard every day at the same job making regular money. Keep doing what u are doing !
This is what makes you inspirational Jay, because you're not just saying hey look, you can leave prison and become a UA-camr like I did (which most people can't). Instead you show them that the struggle of an honest day's grind is worth it in the end. Props to you Jay.
Aye Jay congrats on being out for 8 years. my son turned 8 years old the same day you got out of prison. I respect your grind and hustle for your family. keep doing what you og
Damn Jay, we're from two completely different walks of life but I respect the hell outta you. Keep on keeping on bro, I sometimes listen to your vids when I'm at work and holy shit man do you know how to tell a story. The way your mind works reminds me so much of my own before I got lost in addiction. Awesome to hear you're starting up another business, I have no doubt you'll be just as successful there as you have been with your construction business. I'm guessing that you changing lanes like that is because a tow company will not involve as many moving parts and will be less stressful and you deserve it brother. Salute
Yo Jay keep posting these little snapshots of your moves on the streets! it’s inspiring to see the grind and remember there’s still a good life to live clean and straight. SALUTE
Jay I don’t know how you put in all the hard work and time. Total respect for you bro. One of the only REAL UA-camrs out there. Keep up the good work man. Great inspiration!!
You're the definition of a role model Jay . Every video you teach ME and so many others something. A positive influence. I'm glad that I found you and your channel. You are a blessing man.
Another great video Jay. I got lucky on my first bit an old member of the metros out of east St Louis took the time after I got sentenced to give me the dos and the don'ts of prison . He used to call me June bug he said I was all over that block and the first thing he told me was don't be June bug when you get there. but another thing he said is if you don't have the money then do without. I never acquired a dent in prison because if I didn't have money on the books I did without. His name was John Hawkins that was around the Rodney King beatings time period he was a black man I was a white boy and he didn't owe me a damn thing but the things the man told me helped keep me alive. Tried to find him when I came back from Arizona I found his obituary he was a Vietnam vet that's probably where he acquired his love of opiates John Hawkins was a hell of a good man. May he rest in peace gone but never forgotten. PS the last thing he told me was, "remember this June bug... you are going in a man, and you're going to come out a man, Do whatever it takes to make sure that happens."
Just be careful with the tow truck biz I know you can handle yourself but I know a guy that does it and he's told me it gets very competitive like to the point people fight over jobs on the street and heaps of the companies are run by "hard c*nts" that get hella territorial. Like I said I know you got this in the bag but I just wanna give you a heads up with some of the drama you will experience out on the them roads. A massive salute to you Jay it's only onwards and upwards from here my brother! Lots of Love from your family from down under.
Bruh got over 200K subs just sitting in the whip telling stories, you got a god given talent, don't waste it man. Wasn't feeling you at first but I respect the hustle
See a need, fill a need! Kudos to you Jay on your upcoming business venture. Please be careful because folks will act stupid real quick when their ride is on that repo list.
Man jay, you tell these stories like we’re all there with you. I bern following you for over a year now. It’s like watching a book live. Though these are true events you went through.you tell it in a way that I would say it gives everyone the idea of how bad these prisons are. You’re probably in my opinion one of the greatest story tellers live I’ve actually enjoyed looking forward to every week. I also listen to you on my way to work or on my way home from work. Keep up the good vibes man!! I’ve never been in trouble in my life but listening to you makes me think twice before doing stupid stuff!! I live a couple hours farther up in Va. hopefully one day i get a chance to meet you!!
That raiders hat is super dope. Glad to see another video! You seem to be in much better spirits lately and I'm really glad to see it. Keep up the good work
@@litakita lol aka Death Valley lil ugly ass brother. Being from SoCal I swear I'll trade that dry shit for this humidity in the swamp. Stay hydrated my man!
Congrats on the new career path! You have what it takes, you strive, so it will become just another success for you. I'm happy for you, Jay! Your grind is inspirational.
Yo great story as usual jay, instead of giving up the construction business why not do construction management and train somebody to do the day from day stuff you do and you just lay back and manage it. Good luck whatever you do bro!!
So much respect for you, Jay. Most people can't admit when they've reached the point that they are working a treadmill and burning out. What inspires me the most is that whatever, no matter the situation or circumstances, your commitment to succeeding, no matter how challenging, never stops taking that next step. I've learned so much from you!
Jay can’t help but make fire videos. Makes you wonder how many more brilliant minds are currently caught in the cogs&gears of the Prison industrial complex.
Yo war hammer you don't even want to know! Soo much wasted talent behind the walls just some of the tattoo guys to start psscchhhh! They could easily be charging hundreds an hour outside in a shop or their own shop with the killer work some do. Not all of em but some is incredible with a piece of wire at that! It's sad
@@zackorywyatt8986 no doubt. And had this been 1000 years ago or even a few hundred years ago, many people locked up would be the type of people the tribe or village looked to to protect them from raids by other tribes. Need wolves to keep other wolves away
@@CollinMac96 If you from the hood you show love no matter what . If you some punk square you shame someone for going to prison . Unless its a s3x crime I'm showing love
YO JAY I PRAY YOU READ THIS my last out date was Sept 11 2014 this is the longest I've been off paper and everything since my late 20s I'm 50,now . It's so great to see And here your videos you lance and domi when he ain't on the call out shit are the ones I listen to mostly you and lance I relate to you cause I was like you I was maintenance in the joint and worked construction beforehand but I'm clean from a heroin addiction going on 8. Years And there have been times YOUR VIDEO`s HAVE KEPT ME FROM FKIN UP cause I remember I DONT EVER WANT TO GO BACK THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR BEING A REAL ONE SALUTE TO THE REALIST GOD BLESS YOU MAN
Stumbled upon ur videos jay..and I have to say ur stories are absolutely entertaining.for some reason they relax my troubled mind ..much appreciated..keep it up
Jayyy watching ur videos as soon as they drop as always.. I'm a diesel mechanic and if there is one piece of advice I can give you is that there is no money in flipping cars anymore like it was 20yrs ago bc of social media and what not... There is soo much more money in flipping houses. Having tow trucks, doing repo's and having wreckers especially will definitely make you money.
Speaking of tow trucks, I love watching the "GTOger" youtube channel. People getting towed 24/7 because they like parking next to No Parking signs. Best of luck to you in the endeavor.
ALMOST at 300k !! HUGE supporter J. I dig all your content and I always hit the like button before I even watch the video . 215 stand up 🙌🏽✊🏽 I wish you nothing but the BEST in ALL your endeavors ❤
I’m In The business of painting and flipping and new properties now, however I am a licensed tow truck driver and my father in law has been running wreckers for his whole life and towing he recently retired and sold his business. However it isn’t any easier to run tow trucks than to contact because you are always on call and need to have people who can respond to accidents, crashes, and all other recoveries no matter the time or day! No time off and it’s hard to find people reliable and these days it’s the hardest, they want more money and produce less, good luck Jay shit isn’t getting easier and I fear it will fall on your shoulders
Jay, one day last year I spoke with two buddies. One is a home builder and one has a towing company. The builder mentioned what difficulties there are dealing with city inspectors and how it is sometimes a lot of trouble to make a living doing that. The tow truck fella mentioned that insurance and fuel costs are prohibitive and in our area of South Florida land or rent is astronomical. Both were hinting that there must be easier ways to earn a living. The tow truck company has lost more than one driver to being hit on the side of the highway. That company help push for Florida to pass a law that if there is an emergency vehicle on the side of the road that cars must slow down to 50 mph or change out of the slow lane. You may want to check worker's compensation insurance rates as soon as possible. It is expensive but after an accident it is even more expensive.
You're my new favorite person to listen to. I know when you tell a story, 1. It's going to be entertaining 2. I'm gonna learn an unforseen lesson 3. I'm gonna feel different (in a good way) after liatening. Like even though I wasn't there, I can almost feel what you were expierencing. Not completely. Obviously. But a little part of me walks away from these stories going "Damn... I feel different about life now."
What’s up Jay. I just found your content, and I’m addicted. Being an ex felon myself, I can’t get enough of your talks. I love seeing an ex felon leave that life behind him, and succeeding. I hear you’re tired of flipping homes. That’s actually my dream. I just moved to VA from Miami, and would love some advice. I don’t know anyone up here, but I love it already. Miami got too crowded, in case why you’re wondering why I left. Hope you actually read this and shoot me a reply. Thanks Jay, stay up
Believe it or not, I've tried my hand at towing too. A person has to be professional, cause you might have to clean up an accident. The police, and all kinds of people are watching, I wasn't the greatest tow truck driver, but certainly not the worst either. It can be very lucrative, good luck to you " J" . With love, and genuine respect. Wes Sept
Jay I have been in the auto body industry for 37 years . Be very careful in the repo , towing business . You are going to deal with tons of drama and the low of the low . No hate 🙏 . Be safe .
Congrats on the time being free, had a old boss didn't like much but he had a good saying, if you can use it go for it... Make every day suck just a little less.
Dope story homie. I know these incidents come from prison, but they really are applicable to everyday life. Keep it coming bro. You’re a master story teller
Mr Williams first congrats on the new venture. I've been in towing since 04, I got 10yrs seat time but now I spend my time building, reparing and fab tow trucks. I really enjoy your channel and respect what your building considering your past indiscretions it truly shows what one can accomplish with a determined positive mental focus. And for that sir much respect. A few lessons I've learned from the countless tow owners and operators are these. Buy good equipment. You can either have a truck payment or a repair bill. I've always seen the repair happen when it will cost the most. But invest in good equipment run it for 3 to 5 and trade it in. The only type truck this really wouldn't apply to is your semi wrecker. Insurance: One aspect that few realize and I now assume you have figured out is there's not alot of Insurance companies that will cover tow companies. Tow is inherently dangerous so finding coverage is both expensive and hard to find. With that said you are going to damage cars. You are or an employee will it is going to happen. Do your absolute best to not file a claim, even if the damage is like 10g or a bit more if you can afford it and got some stashed pay for it. My friends tow company's insurance is 16k a month because of faulty drivers texting while driving and crashing. There's alot more advice you can find and I'm positive you've done your homework. Wish you the absolute best in your new business. Stay safe and for those not in towing remember Slow done and Move over! 85% of all tow operators happen on the freeway because of distractions and weather. Slow down, Move over.
Being far from perfect simply shows you're human. Being far from where you wanna be sets a goal,a brass ring to reach for. With your drive and grind,brother you got this BIG. Just keep doing you man!
Congratulations on your 8 year anniversary sir, salute to you! You continue to be yourself, be an inspiration and give back to the community! I wish you all the best in your new venture, 100% know its gonna be a success x
Congratulations on the anniversary of your release and new life. God bless you on your continued success brother. Good luck on your next business venture.

Sounds like a whole lot of different grief is coming your way.Gotta be an easier career move than that
yeah he's in for a big shock towing its crazy and dangerous I've heard of some tow truck drivers getting killed

You're my new favorite person to listen to. I know when you tell a story,
1. It's going to be entertaining
2. I'm gonna learn an unforseen lesson
3. I'm gonna feel different (in a good way) after liatening. Like even though I wasn't there, I can almost feel what you were expierencing. Not completely. Obviously. But a little part of me walks away from these stories going "Damn... I feel different about life now."
What’s up Jay. I just found your content, and I’m addicted. Being an ex felon myself, I can’t get enough of your talks. I love seeing an ex felon leave that life behind him, and succeeding. I hear you’re tired of flipping homes. That’s actually my dream. I just moved to VA from Miami, and would love some advice. I don’t know anyone up here, but I love it already. Miami got too crowded, in case why you’re wondering why I left. Hope you actually read this and shoot me a reply. Thanks Jay, stay up
Not only promoting positivity but also growing within your own life. You & Lance has been a big inspiration an I wish only the best for you & yours
Gotta lot love and respect for Jay Will .. I have been there so I know what he's talking about ..
Thank you for doing videos despite being so busy! Loving them! Happy 8 yrs!! That's awesome!
Haha funny you mention cabinet work.. I’ve got a bunch to install myself. Glad you keep it 💯 bro. Salute 🫡
Believe it or not, I've tried my hand at towing too. A person has to be professional, cause you might have to clean up an accident. The police, and all kinds of people are watching, I wasn't the greatest tow truck driver, but certainly not the worst either. It can be very lucrative, good luck to you " J" . With love, and genuine respect. Wes Sept
Jay I have been in the auto body industry for 37 years . Be very careful in the repo , towing business . You are going to deal with tons of drama and the low of the low . No hate 🙏 . Be safe .
Definition of change can be a great thing you a real one big dog♨️much💜
Godbless you keep it pushing forward very inspiring
Turtle is in his own world inside of a already crazy world we live in. That was a funny story jay.
Congrats on the time being free, had a old boss didn't like much but he had a good saying, if you can use it go for it... Make every day suck just a little less.
Dope story homie. I know these incidents come from prison, but they really are applicable to everyday life. Keep it coming bro. You’re a master story teller
Whatever you do never change the intro song! Love starting my day off hearing it 👊🏾
Mr Williams first congrats on the new venture. I've been in towing since 04, I got 10yrs seat time but now I spend my time building, reparing and fab tow trucks. I really enjoy your channel and respect what your building considering your past indiscretions it truly shows what one can accomplish with a determined positive mental focus. And for that sir much respect. A few lessons I've learned from the countless tow owners and operators are these. Buy good equipment. You can either have a truck payment or a repair bill. I've always seen the repair happen when it will cost the most. But invest in good equipment run it for 3 to 5 and trade it in. The only type truck this really wouldn't apply to is your semi wrecker. Insurance: One aspect that few realize and I now assume you have figured out is there's not alot of Insurance companies that will cover tow companies. Tow is inherently dangerous so finding coverage is both expensive and hard to find. With that said you are going to damage cars. You are or an employee will it is going to happen. Do your absolute best to not file a claim, even if the damage is like 10g or a bit more if you can afford it and got some stashed pay for it. My friends tow company's insurance is 16k a month because of faulty drivers texting while driving and crashing. There's alot more advice you can find and I'm positive you've done your homework. Wish you the absolute best in your new business. Stay safe and for those not in towing remember Slow done and Move over! 85% of all tow operators happen on the freeway because of distractions and weather. Slow down, Move over.
Being far from perfect simply shows you're human.
Being far from where you wanna be sets a goal,a brass ring to reach for.
With your drive and grind,brother you got this BIG. Just keep doing you man!
