Mad respect sending love from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 ❤️
the best example of a man who didn't screw up the family money, but took advantage of the opportunity given to him and did something more with it... greetings from Poland
Damn, Alex really came from family money, I always thought it was just a joke 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lots of family money, 100m plus family money
Someone sounds jealous 😂😂😂
im just as curiuos why DAve or Damon jokes about family money. now i get the joke@@pirithapittbull 😂😂 alex lucky.
@@Becausefamilycaryea but he decided to do his thing
Family money or not, Alex puts in work at Gintani.
Thanks Alex, you didn't have to do this.....And I appreciate that you did.....We didn't deserve it but you did....You da man🦾
I know exactly how you feel … my dad had a very successful international business …
But it’s never easy to fill in those steps … and I have my own thing going on for more than 10 years now… still … I get humbled by what he achieved through al those years … my respects to you by sharing your stories and memories … know that this is the way you make lost people live forever … love the channel , great work and looking forward to see so much more 👌🤙🏻👍🏻❤️ #shootflames and make this world rock 🤙🏻🌶️😎🏎️🚀
@@ATELIER_31it's a lot harder when u have no father u can rely on and no family i totally understand the pressures to fill your dad's shoes but thats a nice felling it means your proud of your father and hes achieved soo much u have disbelief in yourself but all I want is to be a successful business owner but I have no generational help I was kicked out the house and left to fend by myself at 16 by my mum who has serious mental health I slept on benches in the cold with no food or warmth in winter I think you need to appreciate how lucky you are I haven't even got a family member to talk to and I'm not being a jealous piece of shit I love what Alex does and respect him 100% but sometimes I wish I was born into a stable life because it feels a lot harder trying to get through life when u have to build everything from nothing when your in competition with people who's had money for generations its a losing race I'm so broke I could only eat one meal today otherwise I will end up running out of money just please appreciate everything more even having your father in your life never take those things for granted
Alex came from MONEY, but he pursued his own dreams, put a lot of work in it. Big Respect
The respect of your grandfathers office remaining the way it was since 1983 speaks volumes!!
I absolutely love the fact that gramps office has been left clean tidy and original nice
As an American citizen from birth, it warms my heart to know that your family has experienced the American dream. As a touring musician, seeing the world, I’ve seen so many cultures. God bless you and your family. ❤❤❤❤❤
Amen to that - exactly my thoughts throughout- and he holds onto the dream instead of this new age disapproval of America
Big difference in coming from family money and actually using it to build your own path for his own family instead of living off the family wealth, big respect Alex 🙏❤️🇮🇪
I had the privilege and honor to meet Alex at the SEMA show. Mad respects to him. Talked to me like we were friends. Congrats on your walk bratha and may you continue to be blessed.
The fact Alex can wear more jewelry than rappers and chooses not too, big respect! Passion is everything 💯
This was cool to watch and how genuine the reaction to his grandfathers office was almost a tear jerker you could see the memories flooding into his in that office and I can speak for everyone but I sure hope you start doing more with the family business!
Alex, thank you for sharing a small piece of your family history. It is truly unique. As an immigrant myself, my parents immigrated from Trinidad to Ontario, Canada, in the late 80’s. It was humbling to see a personal part of your history and future. That is impressive, man. Keep up the great work and keep that family close to you bud.
On side note @DailyDrivenExotics can bow down and show some love. 😂😂 kiss the ring boyz. Lol😂 “boost”
This was awesome, but I just noticed it's only 1 of 5! I can't wait for the other episodes! You should be extremely proud of the "family money", as it was made from the American dream!
I love Armenian people, never have I been treated SO well as when I was there among them. Does NOT surprise that Alex and his family are Armenian. What a great American success story. Way to carry that ball forward Alex. I've seen vids with your son, he has much to live up to. And he will.
Here from DDE . This is such ana amazing mini series. Alex dad is such a boss. Hope your chanel blows up alex you deserve it
You're definitely one of my favorite part-time characters on DDE, nice to see your story and where you came from. Being successful is in your blood, you're clearly proving that to be true!
Alex came from wealthy family but he pursue his own dreams and passion .big respect for you man.now alex gintani is famous around the world who make cars sounds like an f1 .
True definition of the American dream. Your family came here with a vision to work and make it happen. They didn’t come with the mindset the government gotta take care of them and their families. Your grandpa is an inspiration to us all
One of the most wholesome videos ive seen in a very long time, thank you Alex!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you so much for showing us this.
What a legacy you come from.
Proud of you in what you have achieved.
Great family.
😎😎😎👍👍👍
My new favorite video. Keep Gintani for your sons so they can continue what you’ve created like your grandpa
GREAT START TO A GREAT SERIES. THANKS ALEX AND CREW FOR SHOWCASING THIS. ❤ THANKS FOR ALL THE HARD WORK OVER THE YEARS AND STILL.
Glad you enjoy it!
Wait I thought the “family money” was a joke the entire time.
Alex, such a beautiful memory and legacy to share on UA-cam. Thank you for taking the time. I truly enjoyed this. Cheers to your future.
this is awesome watching from Canada my uncle since the early 90s has had his jewelry shop in this building now learning today he's been renting off you guys .... growing up every visit id make to LA I had memories of being in this alley way sitting exactly where you are. I'm just mind blown right now how small of a world we really live in keep it up
The one thing I got out of this video is that I didn’t realize how much I miss grandfather after seeing Alex light up talking about his grandfather. Looking forward to the next episode
So cool to see your grandfather's office just like he left it. What a trip down memory lane.
Alex bro this was so touching to say the least, its good to see where your family genes come from but the legacy your making for your family and friends is priceless. Your family are so proud of you man
We don't deserve this guy he is a special guy i just wanna say thank you to your mom and dad your family is legendary
Bullocks and Orbachs were THE two stores to go to when I was a kid... nice tribute to your grandfather
Nothing to be ashamed of. Your story is the story of immigrants. That's how communities like Chinatown and Little Italy got started. It starts by a family moving to America and connecting with other families to start a business. Eventually the loans gets paid off and that family would help other families. There's something to be learned there. Props to all your success and really appreciate your back story.
I'm only half way through , this is great! Alex smiling and having a good time telling memories and being proud of his family! You should be proud! 😊😊
It’s really awesome to see Alex in his grandfathers office taking in all the memories. Amazing they kept it just how it was. In the end all we have is our memories!!!! ❤
Alex gintani 😂 man dude.
It's crazy you pursued your own passion brother keep it up. You just have the best tunes for V12 engines.
Up to 97-98 passed that building and loved it so much, and now hearing the story from you was a wait what 🤯 🫶🏻 Kapalı Çarşıdan nereye wow that’s a story 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Babaya selam ve İstanbuldan sevgiler 😊✌🏻
Alex..your so very blessed..I'm jealous of your being so blessed! Its all so very beautiful what has taken place. You are an actual part OF HISTORY being made!! Your father and uncle and now you are Legendary!!!
How proud you are!! So Amazing!!🎉💯🤩✨✊🏼⚡🏢🏡🥇🎯💵💰🪙👑
It’s even more impressive because alot of people would have just joined the family business and it’s successful, but he went out and started his own thing from scratch and became a success hisself…
Alex’s stories always make me laugh, excited for this one 🎉
Alex bro I love this video soo much ..something different a view into ur life ur family ur history and other than watching ur cars this has to be one of the best video up there .. would love to see more of Alex outside the shop ..who else agrees? Mario outside of gintani please no 2nd channel
Can’t wait for this. The king of flame tunes.
imagine king of flames n king of jewlery all in 1
No matter if Alex came from a family that had money or not just because you have money doesn’t mean you will have a successful business and it still takes years of hard work and dedication to create said successful business and to say Alex created a successful business is a understatement and that’s off to that
1 of 5 episodes....let's go!!!
Thanks Alex for the deep dive.
It doesn't matter how much money you come from....All it matters is how hard you work to grow it. Alex is a good example of that.
Very honored you brought us all along to see this!
Super cool and nostalgic to see Alex. Looking forward to see the rest of this series ❤
America - the land of opportunity. Great story! Can't wait for the next episode.
Who else subscribed cos of DDE?, love this guy, funny and man can he tune a car or what?? And him saying BOOST 😊
Thanks for sharing your 'heritage'
I can see how much it means - and how much family means to you (as it does to me to).
All the best
I thought “family money” was a joke and he has more money that a lot of people and choose not to have expensive jewelry besides his watch wow, it was nice the story and seeing your grandfather office so clean and in time and dad’s jewelry, entering that office I would of cry. You change the perspective of how humble you’re and have all the money. Nice saludos desde mexico
Thank you for this video Alex felt like I was walking along side taking in all the memories with you, so happy for you, your pops and the rest of your family and individuals who have kept this going years later and for many more to come!
Rest In peace to your grandpa, uncle and to any other individuals who are apart of this legacy!
I can’t believe whatever i’ve listened from this video. I wasn’t expecting at all someone is from Istanbul. ( My home town ) Now, you’re running a perfect business. I can easily recognize from parents accent. It’s mixture with Turkish English accent for sure. I wish I would live in states and can work for you. I’m in Canada. Happy to listen 😊 I wish all the best! 🇹🇷 🇺🇸 🇦🇲
I just watched the Kentucky story episode 1 and the way u have respect for your father and grandfather is the way I feel about my dad... God Bless you brother and your family
What a family legacy Alex, thank you for sharing some insight.
Stay in the car business we love supercars and hypercars and be a part-time Jeweler! You live a dream lifestyle.
Enjoy life, your family worked for it.
Great story! People don't understand that family money doesn't equal success. It's definitely a step up but everyone is dealt different cards anyway. You took your cards and turned them into your own success. Respect 🙏.
I think DDE should promote it just to get more eyes on this because this is amazing
Ton of respect, Alex. You've always come across as a genuinely good dude!
Looking forward to seeing the rest of this series. That tattoo of your grandfather looks amazing btw
part 2 dropping this saturday
Good Video. Respect Man
Its cool to see your granpa still wrote in turkish "Açik beden" open size.
I always knew that Alex had something related to Türkiye, Its an interesting story you guys came all the way from İstanbul and took the risk, Your father speaks like a Turkish man its so sweet
It's crazy all these years I thought Alex was a Cali ''Ese" lmao 🤣
Been in jewellery business now over 20 years , its not the easyet business .Respect
Favourite Gintani video. Period.
Thank you DDE for inducing us to Gintani.
A true American dream. Congratulations to your family.
Gintani Absolutely Incredible Video I think it's absolutey incredible that Alex's passion was sparked by his Grandfather and I think it's so incredible that he jewelry to some very famous Celebrities and I'm glad his office is in great condition
Now we all know where Alex gets his passion for the work/art he creates - It's in his bloodline.
Alex, this video is through the roof. This kind of shit is important... Remembering where you come from.. Nostalgia is a real thing.. Just watching this makes me like you 200x more. I'm in Canada or else I'd definitely go support your uncles.. Those statues from the old company are absolutely gorgeous.. If anyone tried to take those down I'd be pissed too, the heritage of that building and the neighborhood is amazing.. I love this kind of shit.. I went back to my old neighborhood not too long ago and knocked on all the old neighbors doors from when I was a kid and they all had stories about me and all remembered me... close knit communities are super important and I think that's what the world is missing now 😢
I love this video, it’s so humbling and touching. Alex, your family I s the epitome of the American dream. My parents persuaded that dream too but in a smaller scale.
What a great story, Alex! Truly an American dream. Congratulations to you and your family on all their success.
I love stories like this can't wait to see the next four episodes

It's really cool to see your family history and how your dad and grandpa came here to make an amazing life for their family. So awesome
We love you Alex ❤️
Super cool to see how you and the family started your business. Love the videos fellas.
Aww! That was so cool! I really enjoyed learning about the family. So cool! Great people there! I can’t wait for more family history. Thanks! 🥂
What a great story and its plain to see how much your family mean to you . Huge respect for showing everyone this side of your life . Your passion to succeed clearly runs in the family . Great to see Alex , thank you.
Wow. The end part being in your grandfather office really hit. I saw it in your eyes how you held back them tears. Respect to the guys never touching a thing in that office.
It’s makes sense to take over the family jewelry business. I’m sure your grandfather would be proud of that. Perhaps own the entire block like he wanted in the beginning.
Awesome video, love hearing these stories
Great Video Alex Jan ! I work for an Armenian family. He came here with less then $70 in his pocket and a has built a huge Laboratory business. Such a loving and caring family who truly treats everyone like family..... Enjoyed learning about your family. @gintani
