DAMASESS! They can easily safe lives with these money, or reinvest in somth like realastate
Great video! I can’t believe they let you film outside the store.
Knewj Knows on his way to 100k subs! LET’s GOOO!!
I once wanted to buy did go in a store but came out w nothing I think mostly personally for me it’s just for the experience is it worth it no cuz your buying the name what I do is work for a candy company I run my own line😊have a great day
How is the dude with 3 kiddos buying $3K bags for his wife only making 100k? Wow
My husband and I make make 6 figures. My daughter is 20 yrs old with a Masters Degree in Electrical Engineering. No student loan. I never own any luxury brand. Instead, we traveled and volunteered at the homeless shelter. I bought my $10 cross body bag from Walmart, and I was happy.
YOU ARE VERY CHEAP
@Les Villa Yes. I am🤣
Wow
@@lesvilla1671 She is very SMART. (Unlike you.)
😂
Hallelujah!!!!!!!!!!! The daily Jesus devotion has been a huge part of my transformation. God is Good 🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌was owing a loan of £47k to the bank for my son's brain surgery(Samuel). Now I am no longer owning after I invested £6500 and got my payout of £290k every month, God bless Sandrina Edmondson 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Hello how do you make such monthly, I am a born again Christian and sometimes I feel so down 🙁of myself because of low finance but I still believe in God.
I totally agree with you that the c r y p t o market is the most p r o f i t a b l e venture I ever invested in.
She's a licensed broker here in the states 🇺🇸🇺🇸
Wow that's nice, she makes you that much!! Please is there anyway I can reach her service, l work 3 jobs and trying to pay of my debt for a while now.
Great to see you guys talking about her, she really changed the game for me.
This is interesting. My son is in high tech & his wife is an attorney. They make over $650,000 per year combined, but they are the most down to earth people you’d ever meet. Yes, his wife enjoys designer bags, but they are never “in your face” with their money. My 8 year old grandson is on the autism spectrum & they have set up a trust fund for him. They have their priorities straight & I couldn’t be prouder😊
Wtf !!! Literally I make 2500 per month , something I am doing wrong.
@@Franinthesky I am shocked at how much high tech pays, too. Of course, he was in school for many years to get a degree in what he does (was data mining, now something else that I don’t understand, lol). $2,500 is a good salary, too. All 3 of my boys make 5 x more than my highest salary ever. As a mom, this is what it is all about, as long as they are good humans & happy, which all 3 are:)
So the sacrifice they had to make for all that cash was an autistic son🤔??
@@LindaKayHolevas the primary reason most things computer-related pay so much nowadays is because the entire field is so oversaturated so they have an excuse to keep the market competitive and only look for the best candidates by keeping salaries ridiculously high
"yes, his wife enjoys designer bags" lmfaooo all credibility lost
Malaria charities save 1 life per $5,000 donated. So if you spend $5k more on fashion items than you need to, you're willingly letting a child die. It really is that simple.
Rich people are the absolute worst.
I can’t stress enough how important it is to be responsible with your money from a young age. Financial freedom is more valuable than any brand name on your clothing.
I'm 38 still in debt from being a teen . Mind u I was out on my own at at your age and not money smart like most kids/teens. Getting cell phones , racking up bills , ect.....
It has really affected me this here above is wise advice
Wise words.
Back when I had no money, I wanted designer everything. Now that I have money, I’m cheap and couldn’t imagine dropping thousands on something just because of the label. The only exception to this would be special clothing items that I keep for years because of the quality.
isn't that a strange parallel the more wealth you accumulate the stingier you become I ain't going to drop even a thousand bucks on a designer item and I'm going to go through what I have before even thinking of getting a new item, people don't understand that as soon as you get that item out of their packaging it immediately depreciates in value and unlike manufacturing machineries they don't make money for you! they only serve a function of purpose thats it you can whine all you want about how it makes you feel and people in general just respect you more blah blah blah at the end of the day its just a bag, and they're many more authentic Italian leather bags that go for 300-500$ without the logo splashing in everyones faces if you want quality I'd rather give my 300$ for one of those brands rather than Chanel or Gucci that way I'll get my moneys worth plus I get to increase my wealth by saving from spending on those useless logos thats just my take.
The people I know who are VERY successful (bio/high tech medical devices, well known physicians) don’t buy designer crap. They buy nice quality - but are more likely to wear a 10 year old Seiko & drive an older Volvo. These are people worth tens of millions. I see people who are actually NOT rich buying the designer stuff, with blaring logos, thinking they are getting clout doing so. NOT🤦🏽♂
Nice story. Who wrote it?
I feel like many are the same. However, there is a category of wealthy where buying things really doesnt make a difference in the way you see money. I dk if I make sense, but yeah...I hope to get to that level one day
@@iamkyros2233 Exactly. There's also a level of just being comfortable, saving some and being able to spend some. The comments are from poor people with a "what if" mind set. They are so focused on price tags and IF they had money what they WOULD do. That's why they'll never be anywhere in life.
Nothing wrong with buying luxury stuffs. After working hard, reward yourself with something that makes you happy. Whatever floats your boat as long as you are aware of your finances, really
Wow
Exactly! I reward myself with luxuries. It's what I work for as well as bills and necessities. Some people assume people may do it to show off. If that was the case for me, I'd be taking selfies with every handbag I have, which I don't.
I bought luxury bag with my hard earned money. I can say nothing wrong with that
What's wrong with that is that one could argue that it is immoral to spend money like this when there are so many people suffering. So many people who are homeless and hungry and there are working poor everywhere. Our system is not fair and greed and corruption is rampant. If I made a ton of money, I would spend some of my surplus helping others, rather than waste it on a status symbol.
Btw, when I see someone wearing these 'status symbols', I don't look upon the person and think better of them. At best I think they are getting tricked by business or are unenlightened. I think it reflects badly on the person, b/c it sends the message that rather than help others you choose to be wasteful, selfish and shallow.
And lest you think I am alone in my thinking, I believe most religions preach that it is immoral to be envious, gluttonous, and selfish. It is immoral not treat others the way you'd want to be treated. I am not a Christian, but believe Jesus was a role model. He healed the sick, helped the poor, helped immigrants and strangers.
It is fine to treat yourself in an affordable way. Like have an ice cream, or buy some comfy slippers. However, our culture is repulsive in how it encourages conspicuous consumption. Corporations need you to believe you should want ultra expensive stuff b/c it's better. It's not. It's a scam they use to make themselves richer, and you, poorer. And none of this helps the struggling masses.
If you need a Louis Vuitton anything to feel better inside, then this is also a problem that won't be fixed by buying anything. Now you have a hole in your pocket as well as your soul.
This was a lengthy response, but I don't regret a word. Maybe it will make some people consider things differently.
😂that is what capitalism wants
I appreciate the real estate inventor who was honest enough to say that some things are over priced.
the inventor. he invented real estate
@@gee2240😂😂😂
La sakoj ene de *esluxscom* estas perfektaj kiel donacoj por amikoj. La prezo ne estas alta kaj la kvalito estas bona.
I like this guy. He actually asks good questions, gets the interviewee engaged, and doesn’t make it all about him.
My husband and i make around $350k a year, we never bought a designer anything. We own 3 houses 2 of which we rent. I get many complements on what i wear, it all comes down on good manner, posture, and class. I never needed to buy anything expensive to feel accomplished. I know my priorities, but i also understand others that like luxury stuff.
Interesting to understand how people see the world from a growing perspective and a wealthy well off perspective! I hope I make it as a well off person and I hope I keep my humble roots ❤
All paid off?
Nice. Designer stuff is great too though.
I'm sure nobody would notice your fashion sense in Manhattan
@@twincherry4958 most likely I believe they said they make 350k a month ear and live within and under their means soooo most likely paid off homes
The physician didn’t buy that bracelet for himself.
haha thats what I was thinking
Right! 😆
I hope not, lol. I can imagine if he was my doctor wearing that thing. Why wouldn't he say it's for a woman? Unless it's his mistress or something.
Of course he’s not going to say who it’s for …
You never know sparklebutt, he may have very prossibly been wearing lingerie at the time of the bracelet reveal. I could sense an air of regret surrounding the reveal however I could be wrong… though im pretty sure he at least attends those parties where like rich/maybe famous/those who benefit from reputation preserving etc dress up in pink bunny suits (my guess for his costume of choice) and fox, baby elephants/other various full body animal disguises -and do you know what with eachother. Unbiased to gender and unbound to boundaries (which as luxurious of a life it may sound like it is- im not envious 😅)
I have one Louis Vuitton tote my husband bought for me in Rome on a business trip we took together. We bought it as 1. a souvenir of our trip (bought no other souvenirs) and 2. It was our 25th wedding anniversary. The bag cost approx $5,000US but would have cost more to buy in the US. It was worth it because that was 8 years ago and I’ve used it daily! I have been extremely impressed with the quality and durability. Also it reminds me of the fun memories of our trip. My husband bought a matching wallet and it too looks great after 8 years.
Wish I was walking out with my purchase. What do you do for a living? “I married a rich man!” How do you get that job? “Go to the gym 6 days a week.”
That female pilot was a badass. My dad’s a pilot. They’re a special breed. My husband bought me a Louis Vuitton bag for my birthday last year; it was so popular and rare he had to order it from Florida and have it shipped to Los Angeles. Every woman who sees it goes nuts over it, and it truly is a fabulous bag. That said initially i was embarrassed to use it because I thought it was a bit silly to have a designer bag so pricey. I’m not a handbag girl. I prefer to spend my luxury money on thoroughbred horses. I have two, and they cost way more than handbags. 😂
Which bag if you don't mind me asking?
Animals and their care are always worth more than any bag!
I would be repulsed by your bag b/c to me it is says your status is being selfish and shallow. I wouldn't say it to anyone's face b/c that is unkind, but that is what I, another woman, thinks. And I bet I'm not alone. Sounds like you hang with a shallow group if they are oohing and ahhing over a bag that rips you off and is nothing special. It's just an ugly bag with a very obvious logo that tries way too hard. We can agree to disagree, but I wanted to let you know that there are lots of people who feel the way I do.
@@gracieb.3054 There are a lot of jealous people
My dad was a pilot, too!! ✈️ And my daughter lives in horse country (Kentucky) so we understand your passion! 🐎
You don’t have to be rich to buy LV. But their quality isn’t what it used to be. So sometimes it’s not always worth it to me. You can find other luxury or mid-range brands that are just as nice in design and quality. But you should never go into debt trying to buy luxury goods.
Ebony, you are someone who's opinion worth listening to.
I agree there's other designer brands that have better quality and are more affordable I personally like mcm handbags the quality is great and again the prices aren't going to place u into debt
@@letrice2892 I built top 1% wealth twice in my life due to changing countries in my early 20's and starting again. My historically significant family going back to the 1600's. Today my relatives and distant relatives still hold significant positions in several countries including the USA. I learned manners, respect, money management.... from a very young age. I do wear and I do have very expensive personal items, however I prefer to stand out for my honesty, happy disposition, helpfulness, personal achievements and daily practice of kindness and gratitude. From a very young age I have been told that the most important is to have money first than thinks. The money includes cash and assets. I hope that I am of assistance to you.
You are absolutely correct. I bought my first piece speedy 25 in the late 80's this piece is still great!
Agree. I’ve seen friends rack up thousands of credit card debt trying to keep up with the Jones’
I loved what the Physicisn said. Stop going to Medical school Nurses and Doctors if you don’t have a passion for people! Going for the money and treating people like crap!
I was a paralegal a block away from the BH Louis Vuitton store. (90s) I received a nice bonus and walked over and bought my dream bag and wallet. Those were the days 😊. No way I could justify doing that now! I hold onto money as much as possible. But I’m also a bit older now 😂
it's shocking how people are open with their finances.
Why would you need to keep it a secret?
I have nothing to hide....its a reality. Im a banker and the reality is that....everybody is broke...to some degree . From business owners to the regular 9-5er.....paycheck to paycheck is a common thing out here and we need to enjoy our life the best we can...whether its a bag, a car, a house, manicure, or a daily coffee.
@@somethinelse0930 Amen, I agree.
It’s shocking much people have been trained not to share it …..
It’s not a secret, but I can’t see myself on UA-cam sharing such personal details. I probably would’ve given a range for the occupation in general.
I am a teacher and I own only one LV bag. I bought it after divorce, saving the money for it on my own because I wanted the experience I never had of going to the store and purchasing. You can't speak on what you don't know, so I tried it. I will say, it is my go to bag. I travel with it as a carry on, overnight bag and purse. It is reliable and durable, a beautiful neutral color and not the typical print, and so easy to clean. The hardware lasts and the structure of the bag lasts. I have gone through thousands in cheap bags. Now, I stay in my lane, lol, so I will not purchase again since I budget well. I'm glad I did, but it will be once in a lifetime for me. I am positive my bag will last just that long.🍎❤️🥰
Hey, just curious. What bag did you buy? It sounds so versatile. Is it the Neverfull?
i m curious too . Beverfull or speedy my guess
@@amidralza2326 “BEVERFULL”?? I wouldn’t want to look in there..!😂😂😂
@Rosanna Hunt 😏 right!! The "BEVERFULL" sounds like it comes from dh gate🤔😔
That's a lot of syllables to excuse a purchase.
Most times it amazes me greatly how I moved from an average lifestyle to earning over $63k per month, Utter shock is the word. I have understood a lot in the past few years that there are lots of opportunities in the financial market. The only thing is to know where to invest.
I agree with you and I believe that the secret to financial stability is having the right investment ideas to enable you earn more money, I don’t know who agrees with me but either way I recommend either real estate or bitcoin and stocks.
I keep wondering how people earn money in financial markets, i tried trading bitcoin on my own made a huge loss and now I'm scared of investing more.
@@nyreggie That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like *Mr Gary Mason Brooks* my coach, you may have come across him on interviews relating to bitcoin and stocks. He trades, manage trading account and offer mentorship program for clients who wish to become professional investors.
@@bjoe631 You allow people to trade for you? that's interesting, I would love to learn, hope it’s safe?
@@thirtyonesolid Well this not my first time of seeing this name on social platform. A CNBC news host spoke highly of this man and his trading strategies. Do you know him ? if yes , did you invest with him?
I work at a famous mall. I’m surprised how many people come off the bus out of crime ridden Philadelphia to spend their entire paycheck at this store. Then they go back to their crime ridden city and feel like they are rich.. The habits of the poor need to be analyzed.
😳 wow
@@jleenofficial oh come on you didn’t know this? The queen of England didn’t have the spending habits the poor have.
@@cyndimorgan9792who cares! To each his/her own. Whatever makes them happy
Agree, I'm Italian and people does the same in here! I know someone who's probably one of the most shabby persons on Earth (she might own a lot of money but she looks like a beggar and smells even worse). Last time I saw her I couldn't decide whether to laugh or cry because she had a genuine LV bag and gestured in an affected manner believing that the mere fact of owning such a costly item suddenly brought her class and charm. (A good soap would have been a far better investment)
If someone has worked hard for their money ...let them spend it on designer..does not hurt
Successful people don't become that way overnight. most people see at a glance-wealth, a great career, purpose-is the result of hard work and hustle over time. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life too 🙏🙏🙏
Starting early is the best way of getting ahead to build wealth, investing remains a priority. I learnt from my last year's experience, i am able to build a suitable life because I invested early ahead this time
I urge everyone to start somewhere now no matter how small, this is literally the time for that, forget material things, don't get tempted,i became more better the moment i realized this.
Yeah investment is the key to sustaining your financial longevity but venturing into any legitimate investment without a proper guidance of an expert can lead to greater loss
exactly! That's my main concern and what kind of investment can someone do with this increase economy turndown
Hello I'm new here, what exactly kind of investment are you talking about here, I'm really interested too
All I gotta say is, buy within your means, make it last, and buy what sparks joy for you! 😊 Your life is not guaranteed so have fun while you’re here!
📌📌📌📌
Buy below your means and save the rest for the future😁
@@ToriHiragana As long as you budget well, you’ll have both present and future to enjoy 😉
Loved how i ended up actually learning about different careers because you asked some really good questions, great video
My boyfriend, as of 2 years, bought me a designer ring for Christmas. He was honest and told me the price, I made him take it back. We're in our late 20s and not set in our careers yet. Designer can be worth it, only when it won't put you in debt. Looking forward to owning a Dior bag after I finish school and make a bigger salary. 👏
Why? What does that bag do for you rather than a cheaper, sturdy bag?
Was it even fine jewelry?
Come on girl ur worth it ur time sex energy . Remember we set the tone in the beginning of the relationship
@@rachaelmjarrel5958 Your sentences is pretty much what is wrong with a lot of women these days, the guy is also giving time, sex and energy so what about it huh?
Stop playing games you gonna regret it.
Skullcandy is a real one, wish more was thinking like her they deserve all that good treatment. Unfortunately most are not.
Please advice from a married woman almost forty years old...TAKE IT QUICKLY.And never return those kind of gifts.There is nothing modest about that.He is taking your time.I was a Christian not even giving into sex with my ex and yet he left me goods worth more than 30.000 USD ..please I don't regret anything to date.The only regret is 1700 USD ring and 800 other jewels he bought me and I refused to take them when we broke.Take and be happy and merry.Trust me you will thank me later for the advice.My ideal advice would be don't be involved sexually until marriage.But if a guy wants to give.Let him give
I don’t even think 100k is enough to be buying things that overpriced.
true imo you need to making at least 250k to be buying these luxury goods
i just started making 100k a year, i’m in iowa and im not living paycheck to paycheck but it is still absolutely it is not enough to be shopping like that
@@subanrafiq for me 300-350
Especially not in Cali. But everyone should treat themselves from time to time.
If you are living in a low-cost area then that makes more sense, if you in San Fran making less than 200k buying this stuff I would be very skeptical at your financial management skills
Insightful video. I just want to know best how people split their pay, how much of it goes into savings, spendings or investments. I'm 27, and earn nothing less $250k per year, but nothing to show for it yet
People spend money when they have it. And certain people spend more money when they have more. Consider seeking advise from a financial advisor if you are concerned about managing your finance better
Right, you can avoid the pitfalls associated with lifestyle inflation by consulting a well grounded advisor, to help plan your short- and long-term goals, it all depends on proper guidance. I've watched my income generate wealth over the past 2 years and 6 months, I now own a house fully paid, and with at least $2.2m sitting in savings thus far. All of this is a result of subsequent investments, and following expert advise.
Nice, who is the FA aiding you if this is not much i'm asking? my retirement plans are going down the drain with my 401k particularly losing everything it gained ever since 2019
His name is "Jackson Sten Marsh", cant divulge much. Most likely, the internet should have him basic info, you can research if you like
@@emilysmith5287 thanks for this tip. His web site 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.
BRILLIANT ENTREPRENEURSHIP! I thoroughly enjoyed your video... NOT because I care who's buying designer (although it was interesting that all the actual purchasers were TOURISTS) but to see your confidence in action- a young man who's using his head to make money! I literally 'tripped' on this video looking for which size LV Neverfull to buy for travel. I only buy pre- loved designer- not only because it's cheaper than the stores but because the OLDER bags are MUCH BETTER QUALITY than the new products. I don't care about LABEL but I DO care about Quality and an old LV Neverfull will last me AND be passed down to my daughter. So, cost-per-use is CHEAPER than a 'normal' bag- especially if you travel as much as I do! GREAT JOB! I pray you get TONS of new members in your group!
I like designer brands but within reason. I bought one Chanel WOC (before the outrageous price increases) and one YSL clutch and I can honestly say I’m just about good for life. I wanted the experience and I got it. I love the persons that was honest and said she made around 50,000 a year and said save don’t put luxury on credit or loan just save for what you want. Really good advice especially in a bad bad economy
Everyone was pretty cool but the pilot lady was so pleasant & informative. I love that you tap in for career info making bout more than just cool designer stuff (which i enjoy too lol).
Honestly, I would not pay $50.00 for that bracelet. 😂
I wouldn’t take it if it was free 😂
that bracelet is too loud that it looks tacky oops😅
@@adrian3747_ I know was soo ugly and cheap looking
It’s truly fugly
@@adrian3747_for young girl friend?
I absolutely love this guy! Articulate, engaging, warm, great voice that's not annoying and no schtick.
I’ve always found it kind of very annoying when ppl equate buying luxury with a lack of responsibility/superficiality. I pay my bills early if not months ahead, I simply look amazing doing it😂😂❤
Exactly. People in comments brag that they make over $350K a year and buy everything at Walmart. Then, my question is... what do they do with all the money they make? We are talking about ~$20K/month net. If they don't invest in themselves (of course putting aside a big % of income for retirement) and splurge in luxury goods or travel, then what's the point of working hard and making all that money?
The lady that said save up. That’s exactly what I do. I work a regular 9-5. My friends eat out often, shop every weekend, go to concerts, nail salons, movies, etc. Things that I’m not interested in because they can get pricey and I can only afford to do one thing so I choose LV as my one thing. I save all those coins and buy a Louis once a year. It’s for a lifetime.
It is not though, is it? You'll get tired of those bags... better spend it on a nice social life, on trips.... don't be a victim of this companies marketing strategy.... you know their stuff is mass produced right? And that their quality isn't like extraordinary .... it really isn't difficult or expensive to produce a beautiful quality bag. It really isn't..... and any bag, expensive or not, will look used and tired after years of use.... especially canvas. A quality full leather bag will age well.... but .... anyway.... LV is mass produced and they aim for the masses, otherwise they wouldn't sell.... go see the world, experience culture and nights out with friends... don't put money in the accounts of the shareholders of LV: those shareholders aren't saving up money for products.... they do travel, have dinners out and go to movies ...
@@AndreUtrechtpeople do what they want with their money ! Some love traveling, others love bags. That’s all 🤷
Do you only carry your LV around the house then since you don't go out to restaurants, stores or other venues?
I get your a materialistic person and there’s nothing wrong w that but don’t forget to live as well cause the memories not the experiences w ppl we love are worth more than anything else. That goes for ppl that save up as much as they can as well. They forget to live.
@@AndreUtrecht There’s got to be a balance and some people have different goals and interests. It sounds like you’d rather be a regular victim of the Starbucks, Jamba Juice, Chipotle, Whole Foods, Nordstroms, etc. marketing machines? Or even better the rarely used gym membership, tanning salon, happy hour, bottle service? Yeah experience culture and live like a Rockstar!!! Hahaha
It's ok to treat yourself once in a while and to celebrate achievements, but avoid constantly buying for no reason these products are "Luxury", not necessity.
I bought my first and only lv bag, a weekend duffle. The only travel bag I use and abuse for the 11 yrs now. If I get a new one I'd pay double almost of what I paid for this. My bag remains awesomely functional without any tear, flake or zipper issue. It's definitely worth it. Whenever I NEED something, I tend to go with the best I can afford.
I dont know if you truly realize how educational this video is! Thank you
I think it's ok to treat yourselves with designer stuff once in a while, but spend reasonably. It's not a necessity, but more like a treat after you have a stable income, no debt, etc.
Agreed! to me it's ok to treat yourself once in awhile since we actually deserve it after working so hard. so long it makes you happy and not heavily in debt to it, then cool.
@@milayaz1144 Pardon, but why else would you buy a designer bag if not "just for trends and what not"? You can buy a just as useful, if not better, quality bag for under $100, easy.
I also fail to see how this is a "treat". In truth, it's just a bag, wallet or whatever. No better than other wallets, bags etcetera. To me a treat is when I get a super functional handbag at Goodwill that is new with tags that say it was $80 originally. I also get nice things from Ebay. I don't really think it's a treat if it is designed to impress someone else more than yourself.
@@gracieb.3054 We can’t take it with us. If a designer bag does something for the person than it’s not for us to criticize. As long as their money is spent responsibly, meaning they are not going into debt for it, who cares what else the money could have been used for. Would you want someone criticizing your choice of buying prepared food instead of being more economical and cooking for yourself? We could all be faulted if someone looks close enough at our choices of how we spend.
@@gracieb.3054who cares? If a person want the bag even for a trend why are you judging? If they can afford it, work hard, and want to treat themselves why does it matter?
Exactly.
Buying LV is worth it for me. I’ve had my monogram wallet for 5 years and it still looks great after daily use. I got their perfume as well, and it smells amazing. Lasts all day. It’s worth it if it makes you happy.
They do last long. If you measure cost-per-use basis, they are worth the money
My Zippy is 15 years old, impeccable 👍
My mother has a wallet of like 5$, for already 8 years or so.... and it still looks fabulous, after daily use, for real.... your LV wallet isn't anything special quality wise... it's the logo... those wallets are mass produced...
I don’t know why people think that you have to be rich to buy LV. My normal bags can’t carry me as long as my LV or my other luxury items. Worth every penny, especially on the preloved market.
I bought a genuine leather crossbody bag with no name for an overseas trip, the bag popped off at the airport on me. My Gucci and LV would never: you don’t have to be rich to be able to afford Luxury. The preloved market is mad affordable. No need to get in debt either.
People's are free to buy anything they like. They work hard and deserve to reward their hard work. If you like $2 cotton bag or if you like to spend 2K for luxury brand as long you don't stealing people's money. Remind yourself every 1k you spent give $100 for donations to the charity. You will feel more happy 😊
My husband bought me one as a gift, and I love it. I look at it the same way I look at jewelry. It’s special, holds its value, and I’m looking forward to giving it to my daughter one day.
I’m a woman who could buy designer brands monthly with ease but choose not to because I don’t see value in it. Not knocking it. To each his own. Instead I invest surplus money each month regardless of market swings. Doing this for the past 20+ years has made me financially free which means I sleep very well at night. I do however value travel and will splurge on it a few times each year. I loved this “man/woman on the street video. It was very interesting. Thanks for what you do. 👍🏻👍🏻
Your comment really resonates with me :) currently choosing to do the same with my surplus money 🎉
How can I do that?
I’d planned to but a nice LV bag (already have 2) but instead found a nice local leather company and bought 2 large round and one small Dr.s bag. Two phone cases and 2 passport covers. All new and for less than the $1300 LV bag I wanted. Also bought my husband a large leather and canvas toiletry bag. All for less than $500. Beautiful colors and they smell great just like my 2 Hadley London leather zip wallets.
@@linziee.8651 sounds like you scored some quality items at a great value! Always a win 🏆
I make 150k as a nurse . I have one LV and I absolutely love it. It’s lasted years and looks brand new . It does make me feel good knowing how hard I work. I would love another but I don’t necessarily need another . Maybe for my next bday! Also these bags go up in value for those who don’t know :)
I watch the entire video and here’s my opinion . My husband and I income is a little over six figures. I work part-time ( now) his is almost at six. Both have Bachelors degrees , built and sold a home. Our savings acct is well off, our daughter savings is well off both going well, investments. I’ve been purchasing LV before marriage , gifted LV and Tiffany’s. Begun in 07’. I think anyone can afford luxury on any salary. Saving up for it etc. I purchase pre-loved as well and the majority of my LV collection was purchased overseas , which is quite inexpensive. Overseas again and prices are way cheaper than the states. My purchases of LV are under 2,000. I don’t go often nor am I into trends. I used my bags just like I use my Coach bags or vintage Dooney bags. No debt or credit card purchases . Everyone doesn’t want to own a home, or a car like others so that’s not a priority of theirs. I’f you get a tax refund purchase one thing under 1,000 and bank the rest. Some people who make six figures or more do not know how to budget. Some who make less does. I don’t think because you make less than society’s amt of income you shouldn’t purchase a luxury . Who made up that rule? Budgeting is key.
Wow! Never thought about that buying overseas. Some design things are cheaper overseas.
Yes 👏 thank you for this❤you don’t know how much it means to me!
@@daliacarrillo8588 Very reasonable prices.
@@daliacarrillo8588 Yes in Europe they are cheaper and you can get a VAT refund. We’re in Japan now and the yen rate is low, so prices are low on purchasing things.
@@Rinney88 Very welcome 💕
Wow. This was an eye opening video. We have been “poor” our entire marriage. My husband is a construction superintendent, making under $60K annually, and I am a stay at home mother (because we are committed to homeschooling our children, and that was decided before we ever got married) so, obviously, even though I work full time, I make no money.
We are very blessed and have a beautiful and happy life. I knew that (obviously) there’s a pretty big divide between us in our rented double wide home, and the expansive ranches with private airports around here, but I really don’t think I ever thought about what it must be like to have hundreds of thousands of dollars of income per year. It’s just a different world.
I also think I don’t really understand items that cost hundreds of times over their value just because of their tag. That’s very strange to me.
I buy almost everything my family needs at thrift stores, and I’m very careful to buy very well made, high quality things. But the name brand is not a part of the equation.
Sounds like you used to be being poor . Reminds me of when I was growing up and people in the church used to try to convince me that money is evil . I’m 40 and I make about 165K a year , and I still consider myself barely scratching the surface when it comes to my potential
Please send your kids to school. And go get a job. Its feels really good to be above the poor status. Trust me.
I know you are happy. But, you will be happier as well.
@@ValMarty I’ve been homeschooling my children for 22 years. I am quite literally an expert at it. What we have is worth more than gold. To each their own.
I feel you, I’m at stay at home mom too, homeschooling. ❤
My grandma uses her fabric bag for almost 20 yrs, beside the zipper is broken, and the bag condition still looks great! 🤣 She earns 20-30k/month back in my country but never own any expensive stuffs.
I truly don’t understand that kind of mentality. If you have it, then spend it, or give it away. My in-laws are rich, but live like they have nothing. Makes no sense to me.
As a teen, I used to think designer stuff was cool and aspired to have the money to buy it one day. But now, after years struggling financially I think that when I someday when I start making real money I would NEVER blow it on a handbag. Invest, save, travel the world, use money for experiences not things. But to each their own...
Great ethos. I just watched a video that said that Forbes says bags are one of the best investments right now ❤
I can't get over the price of LV handbags, including mini bags and handbag accessories. If I didn't already, I would never buy them at the current prices. I thought it was expensive when I bought it a few years ago, silly me. All these prices are insane. Now I think going to *suluxs* to buy a replica is also a good choice.
Really interesting video, I like the interviewer’s approach, friendly and respectful. I’m surprised how open people were with their finances but it was nice to see how willing they were to share advice-save up, don’t put it on credit 😁
Such a cool video!! I always wondered who bought from these luxury brands especially LV since I find their stuff ugly but cool to hear about the jobs and what they make. The pilot gave great advice! Very cool.
I appreciate these people who are taking their time out for care of these things
LVMH shareholder here. They’re currently the best performing company in my portfolio. The company has a huge array of products. It’s not just bags suitcases and bracelets.
Arnault is an amazing investor and great strategist.Their brand equity and margins are great and just
look : everyone of all ages love these top tier designer brands.
@@nickb8006 Arnault retired and it's his kids running the show now
I make close to 6 figures but I just can’t bring myself to buy any bag/ wallet/shoes or clothing that’s over $500! My biggest splurge was a $250 Burberry dress back when I was in my 20’s.
I purchased a coach bag for 500 and I am still surprised I did it, can’t come to spending 1,000.00 on anything
It's not bad shopping for luxury brands, I guess it's a type of accomplishment. A lot of people grow up with inspiration of seeing other people rock nice stuff and they become those people, I think it's a great way to fuel yourself for more in this life, I mean at the end of the road it's just material but it's what keeps people going. Love the video bro, keep it up
First-time viewer: this was very well done - and I am glad that people were willing to talk about their finances. The more we talk about our finances, the less the subject becomes taboo, and the hope of equal wages and living wages become reality. Interestingly enough, as everyone will tell you, as soon as you net over 7 figures, you no longer want luxury...unless you are from generational wealth. So, very well done video, and, yes, I have one LV bag (it was a gift from The Hubs) - but I think I'm single-handedly keeping Marc Jacobs in business.
😅
I’m an RN, single, no kids, been doing overtime for years in a row - 50-60 hrs a week. I buy only 1 LV a year (for my bday) in addition to others. One thing is true, if you are not rich, but in modesty and not in trends. Celebs buy the same things at the same time and call afford to throw it to the side when it’s no longer popular, so I try to make my purchases timeless and not too loud in color
My first designer item I bought when I was in my late 20’s. I was making 6 figures and was debt free at that time. It’s important to invest in real estate and assets at some point in your life to increase your net worth.
Many of those bags are actually good investment. The increase in value over time
Do u own any real estate? I really want to start
What job where you doing to be able to earn 6 figures before?
Thanks
@@abm672 um sure … but it will never have as much worth a real estate… I own 5 properties! Bags do not make you rich it’s not rocket science
@@mariaparas lmao 5 properties!
I praise God for, literally, changing my appetite for the things of this world.
The people I know who have real wealth wear quality clothing that has zero logos or words on it & would be embarrassed to wear flashy branding. The ‘wanna be’s’ get caught up in designer - & everyone with real money looks down on it.
The woman who answered that no, luxury goods aren't worth it, after the Balanciaga scandal, is SMART. I feel the same way (and still just bought myself an LV bag that I've wanted forever). However, I do feel that LV is going to be more cautious about their reputation than Balenciaga was. I HOPE.
This is a great video. Many young people see more and more people shopping luxury and we never know who’s ultimately paying that bill. Is it a sugar daddy? Is it mom and dad? But the best lesson is to learn from people and have respectful conversations. Instead of being envious, find out what it takes to get there for yourself.
This assumes that there are people who are envious. I'm sure most people are like me and care about paying their bills, saving for retirement or other things, and don't give a crap about designer brands.
@@gracieb.3054 To each their own…
Can more people talk about the girl who is dropping designer goods after the balenciaga “incident”!!!! 🗣🗣🗣 I thought I was the only one. Good for her for speaking on it!!
I love the candid advice on success. And it's fun to see what people do. I love they're all so nice and willing to share. Good for them with their success and ability to treat themselves!
I actually needed to see this video because i always wondered who would buy such overpriced products i always wondered what those guys did for a living. thankyou for making it
Very Very clear and simple .....
Matthew 25
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes?"
Amen
Amen
I have a great LV bag, still use it frequently for 16 years and it’s in great shape despite the abuse I give it. Worth every penny.
Just wanted to comment and commend you - EXTREMELY LIKABLE THIS EPISODE!!!! Love the vibes this episode!!!!! keep positive 💥
SnewJ you’re doing a tremendous great job for interviewing people. At least we’re able learned a lot from different mindsets to picked our paths…
If you’re making 100k- 150k you should still not be buying Designer clothes . I can say this because I’m in that category. That’s just on paper after taxes you’re missing out on tens of thousands . In Los Angeles 10 to 12 grand ( before taxes ) a month is still barely getting by
Sounds like you have a spending problem if you're barely getting by on $10K in LA. I live in NYC and I am slightly past that range and I am beyond getting by. I also rent a $2,900 studio. If you're not saving $4,000 a month on this salary, you need to evaluate your spending. I was able to save at least $4000 a month on a $130K salary. My rent was lower then.
It's all about priorities. Some people prioritize designer clothes and accessories above cars, travel or sports equipment, for example. People should purchase whatever they please as long as they can afford it.
I agree with you!! I make $130k, in my late 20s, and I shop at Hollister and like to buy items on sale. I still shop like I’m in university 😂😂😂😂
@@rimun5235 I’m at $130k, bought my 4 bed 3 bath house and my mortgage is $2500. I save $3k every month.
Not true. If you put a minimum 10% in a 401k, you reduce your tax burden. Having a mortgage instead of paying rent also reduces your taxes.
I really appreciate this video I appreciate the questions he asked. Not just the general questions that his other counterparts asked. I also loved the responses
This guy is a quality person...i like your questions. Need more such videos. I once purchased a big Gucci bag with matching wallet...thought i owned the world...its in my closet gathering dust...😊 we want things, we think it makes us happy...but it doesnt...good deeds makes us happy forever...it never fades..luxury iem does...
Amazed u were able to find ppl willing to answer some of these questions
woman who is a private pilot = I got family/generational wealth. Nobody learns to fly at 16 if there's any question on how to pay for it.
Clearly you’re just talking just to talk, I used to work with someone who learned to fly in his teens as well
I had the option to learn to fly because my dad learned to fly as a hobby.
@@MySwagg93 I thought I heard her say she flies for her family at the beginning of the conversation. So I would guess her fam is loaded.
Great video. Just a comment about why I like your channel and videos. I appreciate your approach with people. Engaging personality. People feel at ease speaking with you and you build an immediate rapport with them. Always appreciate your content.
This was fun to watch! Thanks for making it :)
I’ve always wanted the LV Multicolour hand bag it’s so pretty 😍 but it’s just way out of my budget but one day I’ll get one! Nothing wrong with treating yourself, but because I have an average income I can afford to treat myself to getting acrylic nails at the nail salon and they last a long time so it’s really about the quality 😊
I like LV. The quality is there. The style is there. The brand has been around since 1854. That’s saying something. I like “legacy” brands. They are iconic. I started buying their handbags when I finally had “disposable” income. With luxury brands, you can buy less, keep them longer, and sell them when you no longer want them.
LV’s quality has definitely suffered in the last few years.
Nope, LV quality is actually subpar.
LV is not quality 😂😂😂😂
These videos are great for everyone gives you a lot of insight. Honestly I was waiting for someone to be like “yeah I work at target”😂with like 3 Louis bags.
😂
Nowadays I wouldn’t put it pass folks anything for likes & views.
🤣
I actually know a woman works as a nanny and has few LV bags 🤣
🤣
Organic food ,good quality of water, loving family, travel the world with your partner and kids, meet other people, learn other cultures, help those in need....I do not judge those who buy expensive fashion but there is so many other things that make ppl happy!!! Having LOVE partner/kids /family and health is everything!!! 🙏❣
wow this is soo inspiring u get to learn form rich people much respect, i love all the advices they gave must have learned experience..this is such a good content amazing brah!
Interestingly enough, the BULK of sales from ALL luxury goods comes from the poor to the lower tier of the middle class economically.
Great video! Everyone was nice & friendly & they were willing to share their stories. Good advice for anyone or someone who wants to start over. Love ❤ all your interviews! Keep it up! 😊
Decided to watch this during my break 😭😭 and damnn im shocked that many were doctors lot of ppl stay saying doctors are underpaid so I was a bit unmotivated abt studying but this boosted it back to grinding chemistry books
Such interesting vlog. Also I loved how some ppl are so honest abt not everything worth price!
Came across this video in my feed. Very interesting. I just subscribed! I was totally amazed that people were so open to you? I think it’s because of your charismatic personality. You’re really good at this.
In my opinion, if you have it, then spend it; you can’t take it with you after all. The problem with buying expensive things is if you don’t have the funds and are buying on credit. The other issue with expensive brands is if you start buying this sort of material when you are younger and sacrificing things that are more important like buying real estate, saving for a rainy day or saving for your children's education, you may end up having regrets.
Absolutely 🥰 But most ppl who are rich do not buy these brands, that should tell us something.
@@oneofakindlifestylethey went through phases
Yes, exactly. I'd like to add neglecting your health too. Some people buy a bunch of stuff, expensive stuff, while they neglect their health! That stuff can easily be replaced but you can't!
5:56 I love how animated, bubbly, and informative this woman is and just so open to sharing!
I like designer brands because of their excellent quality. That being said, I can’t ever see myself shopping at a LV store. I prefer to shop sales at outlets like Coach & Michael Korres where I can still get a beautiful bag for a much better price. 😊
Most of them have no idea why there buying it or why it’s worth the money 😂
They like the style and it's good quality.
Sheep follow sheep
Personally, I've never had a desire to spend astronomical sums of money for basic clothing or handbags. I am capable of making the purchases, but I just don't see the value. On top of that, after running an Amazon FBA business for a few years it makes it even more difficult when you realize that Any of these items could be made for just like $40- $50 per unit, then they sell it for a 100x.... It just feels like you're getting scammed to me
Not really cause a lot of those items could have a lot of resell value which there is a market for it but to each its own it’s all about what makes you happy
Good point!
Depends. LV coated canvas products, yes. But the leather is insanely good quality. My first real Louis Vuitton purchase was a preloved vintage epi leather piece, over 20 years old, and it still looks brand new. There's no way a $60 bag can hold up to that.
You wear handbags?
When i was younger i used to think 'what a waste of money.' The older i get the more i think why not? Life is short. If your finances are in order, why not treat yourself. Some people go overseas and travel, some buy nice cars, some buy Louis Vuitton & Gucci. We all need things to look forward to. Do you.
Yes, I agree. Problem is when people who wear luxury brands start looking down on people who don’t. Me personally, I take travel, and I prefer to buy clothes and accessories that are made with really high quality materials, but aren’t overpriced because of the name.
He really spent 1500 dollars on the ugliest bracelet
Designer to me is Coach and Michael Kors from the outlet malls. I don’t make enough money to shop at LV and if I did that money would be going to my dream house lol
This was such a good session. I appreciate you doing this. I am a designer lover. Some pieces are worth buying and some aren’t. Designer brands are definitely overpriced and at times not worth it. The older I get I realize the quality of the merchandise produced in todays era is less durable. I began investing in designer pieces at the age of 25. I am now 32 and I can proudly say that I invest in pieces that fit my personal style, transitional pieces that can stand the test of time. I’m a Property Manager and have my own business. I’m not rich, I’m not poor but I buy designer brands when it’s necessary.
While I was on my journey of initial wealth building net worth up to $10 million, I purchased designer clothes at heavily discounted prices. I am also very creative and designed my complete elegant wardrobe, selected fabrics and had them made to measure. Genuine wealth, genuine personality is number one.
Love the honesty and modesty some of these people are showing esp when they have a lot of money…they answer but they don’t brag.
@@mariposa1933 High achieving, genuine people prefer to help and assist others. I personally practice act of kindness and gratitude daily. I love to see other people succeed and provide financial as well as mentoring support using my own money and time without compensation. I recommend associating with genuine, kind and decent people only they would want you to succeed. Bragging is not in our vocabulary.
Exactly the same for me. I have my pin business, own my own property and have a few LV pieces. I am not rich or poor but very comfortable and live well. It's good to enjoy your money when you can
SamsCloset - Necessary? It's never necessary. It is just wanted, no more. It is possible to dress quite well with items much cheaper and sometimes of even better quality. All these brand name items are grossly overpriced. They seem to be acquired for bragging/showing off. Unless you are extremely wealthy, it is a waste of money that could be used for savings accounts for your later years. And money can be lost even easier than it is acquired.
If i were to sell one of my purses today for half of what I paid 10 years ago - $3100 x 50% = $1,550 is what it has cost to me use this amazing purse for almost 10 years. That works out to a cost of $155 per year, which is NOTHING compared to what some people justify on buying multiple fast fashion or mid range purses per year!
As long as you have a good hold on your finances (never going into debt over luxury goods, investing your money or being strategic with the majority of it), treating yourself to something classic that will last - like a designer bag - will always be a great idea if that is something you would appreciate.
I have 2 designer bags and they have outlasted most of my other bags in both material and style. I also have had no desire to spend money on other purses because these are so neutral and versatile. It's been almost 10 years and they still look to be in amazing condition. Cheaper purses have not lasted me this long ($200-$300 range), and fast fashion purses under $100 absolutely do not last with daily use. I feel bad having to throw away so many cheap purses accumulated from my younger years, whereas with luxury purses there is also a re-sale value if you decided it's time to sell, which lowers the overall cost of using the purse throughout the years as well.
I loved this video. Such refreshing content ❤
People with money buy things because they like them, not because they care whether someone else notices. Real Estate guy looks way out there with all those brands but I think he's awesome because he clearly is into it for himself.
Yes ALL people are the same by your logic. Are these robots?
@@SamLA342 what's my logic?
Love this video because you are introducing us to different careers, some I personally had never thought of. Thanks for the content!
Thank you for this clip & for being so bold to engage shoppers!! 🙌 Shout-out to Aotearoa 🌿New Zealanders whose earnings mirrored mine. To start with, my Trade qualification in Hairdressing taught me how to care about people first & probably why I enjoy wearable art designs too 😊but my work now as a Senior leader for government projects, has stopped me from purchasing high-priced luxury items like Vuitton etc because of contextual issues that we have w the global fashion industry. Like others, I did acquire uni degrees that were useful for work (political science, languages & political socio-eco papers) but my greatest investment has been in people and strategies that have yielded their health and well-being. All the very Best w your network-networth initiative!! Go Well All X
I'm a pharmacy technician, one of my patients gave me 2 nice size LV bags (one is huge) 💛💛💛
I launched an online business last year and it's not easy. It takes patience, determination and focus and sometimes a good break/connection. I loved this video and there should be more made. I personally don't like LV, this was very informative and at least the people were honest enough to stop n talk. I'd welcome anyone who would love to connect with me ❤ I have never purchased any designer brands, the ones I have were given to me. I bought my mum a Gucci wallet 2 years ago for her 81st birthday because I wanted her to have that novelty experience.
I have Michael Kors, Coach and fossil bags that I have been using for many years almost everyday, and only cost 100-150$ each and they are still in very good condition up to now.
Incredible how networking is always the answer to being rich. Yes hardwork and education can help but honestly, networking is # 1
I hate that networking is the answer because it's really hard for an introvert like me to network effectively and keep up those relationships.
