    As someone who used to live in LA the last point hits hard. It's VERY hard to make friends there because everyone is all about money and they don't want to waste their time talking or hanging around you if there isn't anything to benefit from it.
    People will come over and talk to you acting all friendly sure but 99% of the time they are simply sizing you up and determining if you can add anything of value to them.
    LA is a place where despite its gorgeous scenery and countless things to see and do, it's easy to feel lonely.

    • @briansounalath
      @briansounalath 2 роки тому +7

      Yeah that is true about LA. I think it’s more a symptom from a lot of people working in the industry. People have to admit that Hollywood and the entertainment industry can be very superficial. You can’t have it both ways. But if you don’t work in entertainment and hang out with non-industry people, you actually can easily avoid that.

Its a sprawling mess with horrible smog, traffic ( thank you oil companies for killing the early subway system ) and overpriced houses with no real city vibe or transportation. You tubers don't make people move there - jobs opportunities do or people chasing dreams of stardom.

    Excellent video. As one who grew up in Los Angeles I can attest, everything you say is true. It is simply impossible to find the center of this city, and you can't find that magical place to live that will put you in reach of everything you need to do. It's simply impossible. Unless you can work from home and order everything to your doorstep, including groceries, you're gonna be on that road dealing with traffic. No fun. I had a job once where I had to leave home two hours early just to be there on time. It was only twelve miles away. And this was a minwage job...years ago! Traffic has only gotten worse, so I'm glad I can afford to work from home. But I still have to brave the traffic. Yes, we have a lot of shallow phonies here, but I live in what I call Real L.A. What I mean by that, is I deal mostly with regular people with a good head on their shoulders, not fame seekers. I have a lot of Mexican American friends and they live very normal, down to earth lives and don't pay attention to all the silliness.

    Been living in LA for 3 years now...I don't have a car and catch public transport everywhere...it's actually not that bad as if there's area's without the metro they have buses instead (which are now free since covid). You just have to plan ahead and choose wisely where you live. Beverly Hills/West Hollywood area is quite walkable and I can run all my errands, groceries, target, banks etc all within walking distance! The only annoying thing is if you want to go to places a bit further out like Malibu/Pasadena or a hike in the hollywood hills..that's a bit more difficult..I usually save those places for when I'm hanging out with friends and get them to give me a lift haha

      @@prod.antisocialflexerr Yes, you will see celebrities here. My little brothers are part of this swim team and at the swim meet they met Gwyneth Paltro and took a picture with her. Sometimes on certain holidays/events you can go to Pico Blvd and Fig and just go bar hopping around there at night and you'll see many celebrities/athletes. Once you know you live in the same state as most celebrities, you'll tend to not get so worked up about it. There's even an ex-celebrity superman actor that now does solar paneling for roofs.
      My father went to one of the most famous high schools in LA and has a yearbook from it... John Marshall High. That high school must've cranked out more than a dozen celebrities from there. I grew up in San Gabriel just east of LA and thank God the homeless haven't really crept into this city like it has to other cities. My hometown has really changed throughout the years... Everyone drives a Lexus here at the very least and now Lamborghinis, McClarens, Maseratis and Ferraris are becoming a norm.
