I like my life private, I don’t go out as much, stay home kind of guy. Play video games. I’m quiet, I don’t like to show off. I don’t like crowds. I don’t be in the mix, no group or gang friends. I’m a real boring type of guy and I’m fine with that😎
If y’all considering buying a coaching session from Hec, I did it and I can vouch for him and say it’s more than worth it. He devotes the time to get to know you and your goals. Very helpful. Good luck in y’all journey 🙏🏾
I feel like if you stay down 6 months to a year and living below your means while stacking, that can really change/set you up for a good amount of time
Owning a lot of furniture and other heavy items is not worth it if you are renting. The cost of moving becomes way too expensive and time consuming. There's so many times I've seen people throw everything away because they couldn't afford to keep everything. I'll say stay move out ready until you have a house of your own.
Hey Hec! I’m a professional volleyball player playing overseas in a high league. I finished college 2 years ago dual majoring in Computer and Information Sciences. I continue to dream to be on top of the volleyball game. Currently going through the unfortunate circumstances and inconsistencies of these club organizations being frugal to help us as athletes get to where we want to be. My goal is to go back to the states and start my career outline in the IT/Data Science world and treat my income into some investments for my future/future generations, while I also find my footing into pioneering the development of a professional men’s volleyball league in the states and still achieve my initial dream. I’m leaving this comment here so I can come back and say you were of my reminders to not seek validation and remain humble.
That's one of my mistake. 3 times in 2024, I made bunch of cash as a streamer. Now it's December, I'm broke, got ban from Tik Tok. I'm on Twitch now and youtube but it's MUCH more slow. I was use of the tik tok cash and tought it was a forever thing. I did spent a lot on my content and it made it so good, but I calculated that I spent WAY too much on bars and hanging out. For 2025 I know.
Exactly for me, I've moved around alot and what I learn is the more stuff I had, the less I'd want to keep the place clean cause there was sooo much to do and soo much to maintain.
I agree 100% I myself do not and will not ever pay for brand name products. I do not see the need, waste of money. I would rather save to purchase a house or start a business. Stay positive!
Yoo.. I've been watching u for about a few weeks bro, u keep it real and I respect that, and it's 100% true, materialism has plagued alot of people's mindsets
I've learned the hard way and I still would of like to be home with my parents but I wouldn't feel comfortable to be make this kind of content. I probably would have never made this video. I"ve had thoughts to move out of America if I were able to do UA-cam full time again and live somewhere cheap and the money I make could stretch for a while. Just thinking out loud
@@LordHecSquad I believe china and Vietnam and other countries translate American money to more. It’s a few Americans that live there either temporary or permanent to save money
I like how simple you got your apartment lol really just cop the stuff you need and you’ll be just fine. i’m literally finna be simple with it too when i get mine soon 😂🙏🏾
I'm also something of a cheap ass myself lmao but that doesn't mean i'm broke or don't value myself I just choose to be smart with my money. I can relate to your story because I also went and moved in with someone and itwas the first time but love and all amde it seem like we could conquer the world but unfortunately it didn't work out. I'm rebooting at my folks place then in a few weeks I'll be going up against the wrold with what I've learned. Enjoyed the video man!
Im a "minimalist ". I usually only buy what i need, but i will spend money on the few quality things that actually bring me long-term joy - that's money well spent. The time, energy, & space that we spend managing all the pointless stuff that we aquire isn't worth it. Only when we're really old will we realize how much life those things sucked out of us 🙏🏾. It all adds up smh. Pure quality only >
We are all different. I’m frugal too (2 the point where if the line too long in the store or I’m waiting too long I start taking sht out the cart) but instead of staying I can’t have stuff I ask myself where I can put my money to cover the cost of what it is that I want. That I get what I desire and that $ keeps coming in afterwards.
I agree with everything you said I’m even trying to get better with the spending bc idc what a person thinks clothes and materials not worth it I even cut my phone and car insurance even if I make more money I do not want to spend more I want to spend less
As long as i have a roof over my head and a bed to sleep on and something to eat(healthy and worthy) i'm fine and won't wasting my money to see some jaw drops or hear bunch of WOWs even if i have millions
Exactly! This is quite obvious to me but it's crazy how we blacks get things for exorbitant amounts just to impress and show off. It's crazy! I love the mindset broski!
The world wants you to be like them and live like them and pick up whatever is trending and if you not in the same Timing “you weird” or some dumb thing. I hate this world man and I hate those who follow up in this evil society and bash those who don’t follow their foolishness
6:27 i TOTALLY understand where you are coming from. I'm not defending Balenci or Gucci or other high end brands like that. I agree, you ARE paying for the brand. BUT in my experience, some higher priced clothes do have a better quality compared to a Burlington or Ross brand. It's a case by case thing. THe clothes you pay for, do last longer and have a better quality in my opinion
You have a point but the prices be unreasonable I understand paying $25 for a good 4 t-shirt as opposed to paying for a 10 pack that cost $5. But spending $900 on 1 shirt is bizzare to me. Not telling people how to spend their money and yes, spoil yourself but alot of people make purchases like this on a frequent basis and its like sheeesh
Eyy bro ! I made a working my 9 to 5 job video . I was really inspired by your videos. so I had to make my own also. Gave you a shout out and all haha. Also dope video. I do need to get better with my fincances and stop spending on dumb stuff for real.
BROOOO....I was wondering what happened to yo girl. Seen her in your previous videos and when you finally showed your new apartment, I began to wonder why she wasn't with you. Thank you for letting us know that ya'll ain't together no more, i'm sorry for experience! Wishing you the best though
Bro, I definitely feel you on this, I don't buy nothing much, minus games I like every now and then and I wear almost the same shit to and from work Monday through Friday, my current job got the casual fit stuff and so because we don't have to worry about tryna impress I RAN WITH IT lmao. I'm not materialistic like that XD I don't like the idea of spending 500 bucks on pairs of jeans or Jordans that cost half a band. I got a few sneaks from walmart and rotate my sweats and Tshirts XD I dont care lmao
This the best way to live man, My guilty pleasure that i still need to work on is UBer eats i HATE preparing food with a passion but mannnn i be looking at my statements and the amount i spend on Uber Eats .... i should get an ass whoppin by my mother everyday for it
@LordHecSquad I got you fam look up "why I sleep on a Japanese Bed and Will Never Go Back to a Western Bed" It completely changed the way I viewed sleeping, and its a much cheaper option than mattresses.
Damn bro i remember when u was getting decent reach with ur joycon cod vids a while back but i thought u was still waiting on ur comeup and hadn't gone viral yet to but hear u was making 20k off this is Crazy
This what I'm saying, i dont care if its fake 99% of people dont care what type of jewelry you got on. If it looks nice the most they're gonna ask is how much was it or is it real. Mosiniate is real and it cost a pretty penny but i aint paying $50,000 on a chain. Thats a downpayment on a house, or u can flip that money
it took me a good 3-4 times of running it back to be able to do it without looking at my notes. BUt to be honest if u asked me to do it now, i'd be clueless. Once i got my job I haven't used it but its a really good talking point
Not questioning you or anything but you're title is "2 Habits that Made me Lose Everything" but all you talked about is how cheap/frugal you are 😆😆😆. Btw sounds to me like you're a minimalist, absolutely nothing wrong with that. When things are nice and clean --> it's calming.

The lesson of this video is to not live above your means. Stop trying to impress people and trying to make yourself look rich, just BE YOURSELF.
You ain’t cheap, you smart king remember that 🙏

Less stuff, less things to clean and keep tidy . Less clutter more clarity for your brain. Just buy what you need you end up with more money
Exactly for me, I've moved around alot and what I learn is the more stuff I had, the less I'd want to keep the place clean cause there was sooo much to do and soo much to maintain.
Dont buy fake things... Instead support small business products that are original.
You are only the boss of your own life.
You got a good mindset Hec!
Thank you.

I feel you on the furniture, but look into getting a twin sized loft bed/ desk set up. It’s space efficient and comfortable. Vouch.
Start being cheap! W video! You are smart with your money. Nothing wrong with that! A debt free life is a beautiful thing!
Pickled appreciate you fam you always come through on the videos. Have you tried the new Marvel Rivals, I've been enjoying it with friends.

someone that gets it, i especially relate to the easier to clean part.
I literally can see the dust or a little cotton marble on the floor and not having to move an entire couch just to clean is so much easier.
If u want ur pockets deep , start being cheap ‼️🤌🏾
Live below your means good bless
Not the pick it up and Move it over lol
"Don't ever get up."
For real tho, I was wondering why the room looked so empty😂
