      The stock market is doing well because of it's good hedge against inflation, and it's easier than ever people to buy stocks.
      More buyers competing for the same stocks mean higher valuations.

      I live less than an hour from the largest population of Amish in the U.S. and I assume the world and I'm still completely submerged in Peter's videos in Amish country. That said I'm also fascinated by his videos in Pakistan or and elsewhere. I'm sure many of the more liberal Amish would be too. The interest and even admiration definitely goes both ways.

Also, if you look at the demographic of Pakistan, you’ll see that Pakistan have the 2nd highest or 3rd highest number of Shia in the country. You’ll find that there is so many ethnic diversity in Pakistan, Punjabis, Sindhi, Balochi, Brahui, Pashtun, Hindokowan, Saraiki, Shina, Khowar, Balti and much more,

    I've watched the whole series on the Amish Community and I'm blown away by how happy, humble and generous everyone is. I didn't know much about the Amish before watching this, so thank you, Peter! I'm kindly jealous of their lifestyle and wish i could escape the craziness here in the UK and live a life in such a tight Community. In all seriousness I think these people live the best life in this day and age. I appreciate the way you presented the whole series without putting a spin on it but just rather inform people like me that didnt know more than what's usually mentioned about the Amish. Amazing stuff.

      ya I like the series , nice content . So I was wondering what their views are on clothing items like shorts or short jeans , I grow up in a culture where you don't wear shorts and you don't wear anything tight , mostly loose fit and stuff , it was mostly jeans or regular long pants that people wore , I'm no longer religious or anything but I was wondering what their views are on different clothing styles . We also were banned from drinking alcohol , I wonder how the Amish view drinking and stuff . Honestly I don't have a problem with the whole horse riding thing , I'm fine with it , its also good for the environment because your not releasing garbage into the air , its not particle for me but good for them

    Peter, it needs to be said: I found your channel through the Chassidic series, specifically the Shabbat dinner video which popped up randomly on my feed. What you’re doing is here probably the most incredible thing I’ve ever seen on UA-cam. What you’re providing here is what people typically have to travel for, and most of us don’t have the means or the time. And even if we can explore the world, meaningfully penetrating these communities we aspire to learn about is usually too difficult for the average traveler. I’ve learned so much about life itself learning about these different cultures. I take mental notes about every community you present; how to live more simply from the Amish, how to structure family raising from the Jewish, how to overcome environmental challenges from your Brooklyn videos, and so on. This is how we overcome cultural and religious hate. Of course these communities have their internal problems, but I’ve learned that these groups that are often punchlines in the Western world are beautiful, and there’s a reason they’ve survived. Thank you.

    Thank you for doing all these Amish videos! I'm a Yoder and my dad was raised Amish and grew up in Holmes County. He eventually moved down to Plain City, where I was born and raised (live in Texas now). A lot of my relatives are still Amish and live in Holmes County. The Mt Hope Auction is a huge part of my childhood. They have another similar one but for kidney-related health that was actually started by my grandmother. I remember going up every year to help with food and several other things. One of my fondest memories. We spent a lot of time in Holmes County with my Amish relatives when I was young. All these videos bring back such great memories!
    Also, my grandparents had a home right there in Pinecraft where you were in Florida. We would go down every spring break and stay with them.
    I just love the great job you did with portraying the Amish. For so long, there have been so many shows that portray the Amish the wrong way. This definitely helps debunk a lot of myths and false information those shows have started.

      The Amish are NOT the most empathetic people you will ever meet when it comes to animal welfare. They will take care of their horses and cattle only as much as it takes to keep them working and producing. A buggy horse might be tied up for hours in the hot sun with no shade or water, tormented by flies because the owners won’t put fly spray on them. I’ve never seen my neighbors call a veterinarian. If an animal is sick they usually only try some home remedy. Sometimes it works, usually it doesn’t. That applies mostly to horses, cattle, and other livestock. As for cats and dogs, they are not pets. You’ll never see one inside the home or even in a doghouse and they don’t buy dog/cat food for them. They just wander about the place and are expected to feed themselves on whatever they can scrounge up. They find shelter in whatever place they can, whether it is -20 or 95 outside. The Amish will not interact with them by talking to them (other than an order) or petting them. They are never spayed or neutered so you can expect to see litter after litter running around the barnyard. Very few will survive past a year or two. Some buy a dog from a breeder for varmint control. Those are the puppy mills that others have mentioned. I’ve seen one or two of those mills and I can’t imagine a worse place to live. Great Pyrenees and Australian Shepherds are common varmint dogs. And as for outright cruelty, that’s more common than you might think. I’ve seen Amish beat a recalcitrant horse or dog mercilessly. I once saw our neighbor kids tormenting a small kitten while it cried and cried (I never saw that kitten again).

    This series has been so good. I love the lives they all live its much more about family and community than everyone for themselves. It makes me realise how much TV and Devices have made us all so isolated. You can literally be in the same room with the kids and we are all doing our own thing on our devices and we are communicating or having quality time together.

    Just love that you chose to do this series Peter! Many people are curious about the Amish and they always get the wrong impression. I drive for the Amish on occasion and have become very close to some of them! With your help, people will be able to see the True heart of many of these people. Once again thank you ❤️

    When I return to America, I'm gonna find one of these Amish auctions, buy a lot of high-ticket stuff and donate them back.I can't believe I grew up in Pennsylvania, saw a lot of Amish, Mennonites and Bruderhof's in my time...but never knew they were such generous, kind and caring people. Thank you, Peter, for making these videos. I've thoroughly enjoyed the entire Amish series. Your UA-cam channel deserves an Emmy and Peabody.

    We have worked for some old order Mennonites in Cynthiana Ohio for almost 3 years now hauling trusses and lumber, without a doubt THE BEST job we've ever had, my husband prefers working with/for the Amish and especially old order Mennonites, overall more honest than Englishers. They've let us into their lives and invited us to some family events, really amazing community and a huge thank you to Auker's Custom Truss for being the best guy we've ever worked for!

    Peter, thank you for your great content. I'm watching all your video's with my wife and kids (they are learning English atm so that's a double win!) The unbiassed way you interact with the people from all these very different communities is a great example that I'm happy to present to my kids. In fact I believe your channel should be mandatory watching (if there would be such a thing) for all. You are a force for good in my book. Godspeed to you!

    This is amazing. I've lived in Ohio my whole life. I've always been around the Amish. I've worked in their communities. I've learned so much more about them watching this series than I've learned my whole life.
    I used to collect blood. Their Bishop's required the whole community to donate. It always bothered me they supplied the bulk of of the Cleveland region blood supply. They donate far more than they receive. I could run a drive in the middle of a heavily populated area and not collect a lot but their small communities would keep us busy all day long. They were lined up down the street all day.
