Buy things we cant afford to impress people we dont like.
Respect. Congrats on figuring this out so early. By the time I understood this I had the new house, new 50k dually etc etc. Took me another 10 years to break free. Now at 46 nothing is more important than my time, freedom and peace of mind. I also very much enjoy making my youtube videos. I can't sing, dance, write, paint or draw, but I can do the videos. I finally have a way to express myself, and it seems that others enjoy watching them. Good luck to you with your channel.
+Campervan Kevin You're honest
Right on, thanks man. I dig your channel too
+CoolCatCarolena welcome to the fam CoolCat!
subscribed cuz the dope logo you put together
Recent High school graduate. I tried to explain this to my brothers and parents. Their response, "getting into debt and struggling is a part of being a adult". I also explained why I'd rather live in a van and save $1000 every month vs saving $20 every month renting a apartment. Their response, "why would you settle for less, that sounds crazy".
Your way ahead of your time. Good for you man!
F$%# college, learn a skill or join an apprenticeship, you don't need to pay to go to work!
I felt like yelling "fight the power!" and breaking a chair. lol. Break away!
+Dan Travels hahaha
Woooo
Can I get an AMEN ?!!!
Amen
AMEN!
Amen
Wow man, this is truly unbridled passion. Jed, you continue to impress. Not sure how I missed this older video of yours, but I am already sharing it great people :)
See you out there soon!

“Too many people spend money they earned..to buy things they don’t want..to impress people that they don’t like.”
Exactly! 👏
I would spend my money on a gun and burn all the money and go against the secret society I am fighting for y'all people if you are suffering from the illuminati and the devi
you rock man! keep the vids coming. I am hitting the road in a van of my own in the spring. your mindset is the one i hope to have
On it! Thanks! Thats killer! The road is gooood!
Dude this is literally so inspiring to see you so honest happy with your life! I got riled up and excited! I am planning on living in a van a few years after highschool. I so hope that I can meet you some day, it would be amazing! Keep making these videos and being awesome! :)
Wooooohoooo!
Nailed, take me 45 years (I'm 47 now) to understand that at all. I have a steady Job, but only Parttime, 25 hours per Week are enough to pay my bills and have a good life ( and good doesnt mean to consume, its meaning being happy). To understand that all this stuff make us to slaves and never bring anything good to our mind is the key. Go on with your Chanel, love it. Stay safe.
Thank you! I like your definition of the good life. People have been trying to define that for thousands of years, and it seems you have it figured out.
Thank you!
Most people live to afford their wants not their needs. I just want to live my life my way and Im cheap so i dont have very many needs lol
Me too :)
My favorite vid so far! Great message and lots of things to think about. You've definitely been the last straw in my ever growing haystack of reasons I should drop out of the rat race and give van dwelling a try. In about 8 months I'll be on the road in my 84 Chevy G20 that I snagged for $350! Woooo! Oh hey and I'm from Portland as well! Keep on keeping on man.
like the old saying goes, "If you do what you love you'll never work a day in your life"
All craps..
I'm just figuring this out at 30. I'm out of college without a degree with 42K in debt. Only way to pay it off is to work 2 jobs I and get no sleep. So I bought a van recently to move in and going to help with the payments. Not sure if I want to go back to school or if I want to follow a life of "passion" or w/e you want to cal lit, not this. The debt if my fault. I don't blame others for it. All that time building for a "future" that never came or might take another 10 years to come just is starting to lose its appeal, especially when I can be happy without that career and have more time doing more things I love.
what did you decide to do? living in a van and even working seasonally and travelling between with maybe some online/passivr income it wouldnt take you that long to pay that off.
i dont add very many videos to my favorites.. but i added this one immediately. very inspiring and very true words you were speaking, awesome videos and an awesome lifestyle! 2 thumbs up to you bro!!
Thanks Chris!
I worked 48 years and actually I enjoyed it. I'm retired now and enjoying doing nothing. currently searching for the right rv to become a fulltimer. One more month and I'm on the road and I'll enjoy that to. for me it's just all about balance.
Very cool,I appreciate your take on it!
passionate man you are! Love it!
Wooo
+Terry Skeans Did you hear anything back yet?
I totally love your videos, you are funny and truly an inspiration! Keep up the good work!
Bro, you are exactly like me! I say the say the exact same shit. I want to do the same exact thing. Not so such the videos, don't like videoing myself. But the freedom, the traveling, the driving, the making boss moves and not living an ordinary life like everyone else. And being a wage slave, being told when to wake up and when you can eat. I'm actually saving up and bout to sleep in my old civic until I can save up and get probably a Honda element. Good on gas and reliable. I just wanna travel and be free. Live life to the fullest and on my own terms. Keep it up bro and safe travels brother 💪👍✌💪💪
Hell yeah!
UA-cam suggested your channel to me this morning, so I figured I would give it a look. The first thing I saw was your channel banner - a guy and an Astro van. Sweet! I have an Astro van as well. This rat race video caught my eye first. Great video! I often mention "Breaking the Chains" on my videos. I look forward to checking out your other videos, especially your build videos. Cool!
nice! ill check out your channel too!
oh man I was watching your astro build videos when they came out. i hope you make more vids. Your first vlog was awesome too. like talking to an old friend.
+Into The Mystery 13 Yep, I expect to get more videos out soon. Trying to balance my time and squeeze some more out.
i just love to hear your take on life, you will be just fine! i have been looking at vans all day...and till now i was just tired! but you got me to thinking ahead again! LOL thanks for the uplifting words. :) be well and carry on the path you are on.
Wooohooo
Awesome video. Thanks for the message about the different classes. Very interesting what you said about rich people.
Thanks! Yeah it had me thinking!
You are now my number one favorite!!! Just love your delivery! I think you were meant to take this path in life...You truly inspire people!!!
+nicky meyers :D Thank you Nicky!
Live cheap, save up and invest to gain passive income = Freedom. Best of luck bud.
that's the idea, thanks Freeland!
Hey, Bro, you are awesome. Congrats on figuring out the bullshit while you are still young. Took me most of my life and I am now in my 70's and finally selling out and hitting the road this spring. Your philosophy is right on with the New Thought movement based on metaphysics. Really is fun to be in charge of your own life instead of feeling like a puppet to corporate America, hey? Keep up the good work and rewards will definitely come your way. Glad to follow you and I will continue to be inspired by you. Best of everything always!
Thank you so much for the positive feedback Michael! It is fun. What ever this life thing is has become my playground :D
new favorite youtube channel for sure
Right on!
+jiskell yeah, im hooked
:)
Success to me. Is doing what you like and finding new experiences. FUCK MATERIALISM. It's bringing the modern world down. Hell! You don't even need the heating in the winter if you wear a lot of clothes! Not only should we stop buying and start saving. But we should also stop caring about it. We should stop caring about money, stuff and all that. And start caring about the stuff you're doing.
You know what's funny? This was essentially the topic of my English exam. And I come across this video. It's a calling.
You were breathing fire on the system towards the end of the video and I enjoyed it. Speaking from your spirit bro! Great video
i agree. Unfortunately, I didn't figure it out until I was 61 years old. 62 years old now, just sold my house and paid off all of my debt. Getting rid of stuff, and preparing to live the simple life. Feel better already!
ill bet that feels good!
This makes me want to ring my boss and tell him to F off! And get a van and go
Haha I dont recomend that#
+Into The Mystery 13 I'm thinking exactly like you! Thanks a lot for putting words on the ideas I have in my mind. Great job!
Awesome! Your welcome, and thank you for the support!
I love and appreciate your sincerity and passion. Great message, keep it up.
I love your videos and I hope to follow in your foot steps once I get out of the army in a few months.
Assuming you mean live on the road and create your own little world, thats gonna be quite a different life. I hope you document it somehow so you can inspire others.
He was listening to Robert Kiosaki
Rich Dad Poor Dad
+My Damn Channel definitely!
On point. Had this revelation 2 years ago too. Still working towards the freedom part. Yet another great video.
Thank you sir!
Very eye opening and inspiring video! Thank you!
Great video. I would just add that for some people it doesn't have to be just one passion in life. Its ok to have many passions which may change over time.
Love all this stuff. The answer is so obvious really but when your life is mapped out and so so tiring and busy you miss what is RIGHT in front of you.
I'm on the road now and I'm enjoying it. However a part of me misses the familiarity and comforts of my static life (my house, my 9 to 5, my stuff etc.). I didn't expect that. I highly recommend people test the waters before diving into this lifestyle full time. Rent the type of vehicle you want to live in and take some time off from work. Get accustomed to the idea of not having a steady paycheck, sleeping in different locations and learning to conserve your resources. I never realized how frivolously I used water, electricity and gas when I was in my stick and brick home.
Wow great points! Thank you!
That is Robert Kiyosaki. He is the author of "Rick Dad Poor Dad". I am a CPA and I own 6 corporations and I have been following his advise for years. I encourage all my new CPA business clients to read that book and also "Cash Flow Quadrant".
I love how he defines wealth - it is by measured in days you don't need to work before you are unable to live. Passive income is goal. Reducing expenses like you have makes you much more wealthy under that definition. Use this time to build passive income sources.
Thank you very much! I will pick up a copy of both of those books. Lately I've been refining my ideas for passive income and starting to really put them to work. I appreciate your input!
I have made a career of counseling others to reach for the goal of creating passive income sources and I practice what I "preach". My practice and knowledge encompass using rental real estate, real estate flips, real estate land development, passive businesses, turn-around's, online services and other things to build passive income. I started from zero and built and sold my first business before I graduated from college. I am in Frederick MD. My website is www.kvacpa.com If you are passing through the area sometime, feel free to stop by my office. Or if you like I would be willing to offer advice by email to you about choosing among passive income ideas; pros and cons etc. Regardless, enjoy the books! I know when I first read rich dad, I could not sleep for two days. Cheers.
+davevario Wow I'll check out your website. Thank you so much!
Yep, watch those videos I mentioned. Inventory is the best savings account I've ever had!
👍
There is famous proverb in urdu language. Its translation is "some people eat to live but some people live to eat"
Keep making those videos. People need to hear the truth. Break away from what's unnecessary---the cars, the rims, the ice.
Yes, finding what is unique about ourselves, what our passion is, is crucial. I enjoy how you share this message and the importance of living in the moment. I want to put in a plug for your Patreon account. You may want to add a link in the description box. I just received my postcard from you, and the stickers are beautiful and very high quality. I received them after an exhausting day in the rat race, and was touched and challenged by the message of "Love Yourself" and your note, "To say yes to one instant is to say yes to all existence!" I need to love myself, to journal, write about my dreams, create the time to love myself, because it has to start with me. I have to remember that contentment doesn't sell, so the world is not going to offer me contentment, only I can do that, and only by being in the moment can I find my passion. Thank you...signing up for Patreon was quick and easy...and saying yes to another's dream is to say yes to our own!
That was so cool to read! Thank you so much!
And thank you for the support, im glad you dig the perks spoken and upspoken :)
That's why I sold my overpriced New York house, moved to Houston, rent an apartment less than 1k, enjoy life everyday, just realized inner peace is he best, no need to be like everybody and chasing the same goals in a rat race. Well done brother
are you married?
i like how you just shut off the camera at the end of your rant!
you got it, mate! you got *IT*!
+maxsiehier :D
Great video. I love to see ppl look for and find their purpose and passion in life. God Bless
I am so happy for you!!! I can't wait to be on the road when I get older!!!!
+Cheyenne Sweeney :D
Love, love, love this! You are speaking my heart song right there.
The most valuable thing you own is your own soul... and your freedom. When people learn that you can't eat money there will be peace.
Absolutely!
This is Rich Dad Poor Dad. It's been around for years. Video games teach this stuff.
Amen - if only I could go back in time 10 years. On a positive note, there's still time for me to fix it.
No fear my friend
one job that has helped me out every year is UPS, they need help nov-dec for Christmas help and you can make alot of money there for two months of work.
Hey Jed,
Great message! You are exactly right!
You are living your dream. Lead on, my friend!
Duane
Thanks again Duane!
Keep on keepin' on.
Diplo I am big fan! Preach truth!
love the message !!!!
'All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us' - Gandalf the Grey.
Amen. Look at Steve Jobs? How much would he have given to have another day of life? His billions meant Jack at the end of the day.
We quit the rat race in our mid forties over 5 years ago, and we've never looked back. We quit our crappy, soul destroying jobs, sold the house in England, loaded the car, put Steppenwolf's Born to be Wild on the CD player and took off.
50,000 miles and 21 countries later we have a new home, no mortgage, no rent, no jobs, new friends, new experiences- new life!!
Everything you said is true. Do what makes you happy, passionate, fulfilled. Everything else, like you and Tyler Durden said, is complete bullshit. Screw the system!
2 and a half kids hahaha
AMEN
One love brother.
You know it
live BELOW YOUR MEANS...DONT CARRY DEBT
Amen
Amen!
amen
Good shit!
:D
much respect bro I love ur videos I'm gifted on sculpting & drawing but I just don't have the time or a day to enjoy doing them because we're in a fucking matrix world
Ah but you know your in. Now your trapped in it if you say so. Can you create your own dream world within it?
Great video.
Thanks
You got it!
Well said! Bravo!! ❤️
Thank you!
Graduation... Gradual-Indoctrination
wow....thats insane man
And the Rv business plumits under new philosophy.
Well, I agree with this video statement but wow is it hard to get people over that way of thinking..it's an obsession they seem to covet at all costs even to their own health and well being. And the problem is, it's a no win scheme the harder you work the more they penalize you for it..I am so over this game..I cant wait to get on to the next recovery step myself.
Amen.
Eyes wide open! Nice.
how we do change
Passion is useless without direction, Class, lower middle or working, has no correlation with income...more to do with intelligence and empathy.... The lowest income earners give a greater percentage of their income to charity than the highest earners. Class can't really be bought. Class, is being able to make anyone in your presence feel comfortable..no matter their background. That requires empathy and manners. Re. Making money..... When we as humans are borne, I'm damn sure nature didn't envisage currency as being one of our survival necessities ... Which is why it will never provide happiness. .... Great vids dude !
+jools.in.a.motorhome.uk I appreciate you sharing your prospective!
Preach it brah!
Haha
love the passion and I'm totally on the same page. I agree with you!!! but I keep getting hung up on shit like the fact that factory workers made your van. people in the rat race made it possible for you to escape it. my question is, how do you rationalize that concept. hopefully you are not taking offense to my question
With “money” (credit) they don’t have.
you're on the right track. I haven't talked much about it in my own videos but is always on my mind. What makes the rich even more money? War! "rich man's trick" check it out.
+American Renegade Will do, thanks!
+Into The Mystery 13 you should that's a better use of time than funny videos. lol
+American Renegade but of course who doesn't love funny videos.lol:)
Truer words from this video have never been spoken.....My god I felt as if you were talking directly to me.......I'm middle class and can't stand it.......thanks for posting
+James Slay :D
Hell yea!
Woooo
this is another great video of yours! until people realize that they are being programmed to want more useless crap, nothing will change. hopefully videos like this will make us all more aware.
I hope so :)
well said rant
Robert Kiyosaki book Rich Dad Poor Dad definitely helped me improve my perspective of everything I often questioned and good thing I'm 16 and learned this very early except my parents have more liabilities than assets and I'm trying to help them gain the knowledge I have now to improve themselves
Some of the things you were saying in your video helped chain the messages together
Xavier I believe theres a lot to learn to escape this rat race. This is just general knowledge.
How do you make your money?
+astali12 _ see my video "how to make money on the road"
2 and a half kids lol :D
Throw back.
🤩
I escaped the rat race 4 years ago. Left the U S and will never ever go back to my destructive lifestyle of wants and bills to go along with it!
I now live well with little and loving it!
I love it! Thanks for share that bit of your story
Into The Mystery 13 The best part is... I had a shock of my life when I found out my property bill is only 18 dollars a year. I almost laughed at the lady who seriously told me my tax bill. That translates to 23 lev Bulgarian money.
wow what country are in you in?
Into The Mystery 13 Rural Bulgaria mountains
You’re a million percent right.
two and half kids reminds me of two and half men
+Mo2wheels Knight lol
And how to you get assets with no money to start ??? That is my life man, I'm trapped
Seems like the smart people leverage debt to build assets
...this.video.was.awesome.
Thanks!
That's right just fucking due it check out the 50 million Diller man Juan piña hard core man!!!!
How in the world did you put the black circle with the number 13 in it?...SBN
Some character code thing I found on Wikipedia. They have a huge page of it I scrolled forever until I found it
It’s in here somewhere I think en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unicode_characters
You are good looking.
