Jon, make sure you have business insurance on the van, not a normal insurance policy. if you crash you won't be paid out as you technically won't be covered and you'll also probably loose your licence for driving without insurance.
That's why you never buy a car at bottom price. A car with 13 years old and with 100k km on the odometer smells fishy to begin with. Less than 10k driving per year. That's almost unused. For a bottom bargain price. I started feeling pain in my gut when he said he was going to get that one.
I thought he would fix any issues himself, but hearing he has it scheduled to take to a garage makes me think he'll be in for several hundred more in the next vid...
It honestly does just seem now like you like the idea of progression. You love the start of a business and seeing it progress and executing the setup but soon get bored and fill that gap by purchasing new shiny things.
Next video: we BOUGHT a HOUSE!. At this point (and any point since you've started) if either of you got a minimum wage job you'd get more money than power washing.
If he actually stuck to the pressure washing when it started picking up, he would be doing well now. But he got lazy and wanted to just sit in his office selling shit he doesn't care about to people who don't need it
i doubt that leak just happened when you bought the van. it was probably already happening and the seller was waiting on someone who came in to buy it without giving it a proper look so they could get rid of it. that's why it's so cheap. also, bad, actually, terrible idea to go on holiday when 1- you're broke, 2- you desperately need to work to avoid the debt getting worse, and 3- it's the period of the warrant you got for the van. if the vacation was non refundable, you should've tried selling it to someone else
@@Holstead you could simply not go. take it as someone that's been poor and broke most of his life. broke people don't go on vacation when they gotta work
Classic vehicle purchase experience… That happened to me right after buying a car, the gas was leaking right out of the car as I was filling it… Liters of gasoline on the floor in the station, nice experience… I think it comes from some sealing joint that end up being ruined on really old cars Ended up being a piece of shit that went to scrap a few weeks later
i think maybe his obsession with american hustle culture is blinding him. i know almost nothing about cars, but i always heard german and japanese cars are the most reliable
I've just stumbled across your content, seems a bit "unique", making a loss and still powering on... But you seem to have a plan, and I'm all for it. Good luck to you both!
@@Ray_VunYeah it’s called froggo studios. Tbf the website has also expired so I’m hoping they made a new website & channel. They were complaining that people were watching like 10 seconds of their video and closed out which killed their retention. So, it would make sense that they started again under a different name. Fingers crossed they haven’t actually gave up!!
If I may, I think if you look back at the most viewed videos on your channel 1-2 years ago, you’ll see a theme with finance and ‘finance challenges’ that got a lot of views and likely made money. I think you might be ignoring the elephant in the room which is the UA-cam channel. You’re attempting to make money and film it, but a much quicker and easier way appears to be investing your time in the UA-cam channel to make entertaining and interesting videos that churn big views. Like you did 1-2 years ago. You might eventually reach 100k made in small business ideas, but the opportunity cost of not making finance/entertainment videos and growing your channel that way seems too big.
@ I think he would best best placed to get a normal job, and then continue working on the channel on the side with investing and finance videos. I’d like to see him succeed.
@@TM-mk2zb he was already set to have a great income from pressure washing but he got lazy. He can still pursue the entrepreneurial life but he has to stop wasting money and start working seriously. I also really want him to succeed, that’s why I have never missed an episode
@@TM-mk2zb he did have a normal job. he has a computer science degree, and was working a 9-5. kendra also has a degree, i think in biology, and was also working a 9-5 in a lab. both quit their jobs because they wanna be their own bosses. now they're stuck with all this debt because instead of being smart about it and save up money from those cushy jobs, they just dropped it all to try get rich quick schemes
Good you're back on something that can make you money but be careful about spending on things you don't fully understand ie vans Paid Media should drive the business the most when done well, something I mentioned from the start...

He’s a good boy don’t worry
Wait, 9 months into a challenge to make 100k you are on -12k? At what point do you stop? -50k? -200k?
Never stop never
Quitting is for 🐱 s
Come on guys, let's not be negative here, the janky van will provide lots of good content!
Van Broke, Bought a G Wagon (Gone Wrong!)
They've absolutely had your pants down with that van.
I bet they had a laugh seeing it drive off in the distance
I feel like the van was a terrible purchase, and they'll need to spend a lot of money fixing it :(
That's why you never buy a car at bottom price. A car with 13 years old and with 100k km on the odometer smells fishy to begin with. Less than 10k driving per year. That's almost unused. For a bottom bargain price.

Yes they're in massive debt and spending money on liabilities that consistently lose value and require lots of money to maintain and gas
@@anwarvanommeren8407 Wouldn’t be too strange for a car (I drove mine 20k in 5 years 😂) but for a work van something is not right
I thought he would fix any issues himself, but hearing he has it scheduled to take to a garage makes me think he'll be in for several hundred more in the next vid...

Ain't nothing new or shiny about that ole transit
@@NeboReve 🤣🤣
Next video: we BOUGHT a HOUSE!. At this point (and any point since you've started) if either of you got a minimum wage job you'd get more money than power washing.
Hopefully the UA-cam revenue evens things out.
If he actually stuck to the pressure washing when it started picking up, he would be doing well now. But he got lazy and wanted to just sit in his office selling shit he doesn't care about to people who don't need it
@@Bundaboy90he’s said a few times he doesn’t take a wage from the UA-cam revenue and invests it back into the channel/ videos
@@Bundaboy90 it wont. they get like 10k views, ad revenue and sponsorships for that arent gonna be very big. maybe enough for rent
@@Bundaboy90if you’re talking about for this channel all the money goes to better content for this channel
i doubt that leak just happened when you bought the van. it was probably already happening and the seller was waiting on someone who came in to buy it without giving it a proper look so they could get rid of it. that's why it's so cheap.
also, bad, actually, terrible idea to go on holiday when 1- you're broke, 2- you desperately need to work to avoid the debt getting worse, and 3- it's the period of the warrant you got for the van. if the vacation was non refundable, you should've tried selling it to someone else
It wasn’t the best time business-wise to go away but it was a family trip so couldn’t change the dates and we weren’t paying for it
@@Holstead you could simply not go.
take it as someone that's been poor and broke most of his life. broke people don't go on vacation when they gotta work
@@Ray_Vunwtf are you talking about you guys are nuts
You definitely should have brought someone to look over the van who knows what to look for 😅
That's a thing you learn once you've been scammed :x
Either that or you get scammed and you learn what to look for next time.
Start a coffee cart Jon, you're very personable you would kill it and make great money
Not a terrible idea that’s a 17 year old kid doing it at a train station just outside Kendal and he’s killing it
Another episode diving deeper into your delusional ideas
Keep going guys. Always rooting for you. Energy and persistence conquer all things.
Thanks Jim 😁
I will be honest. I do not belive in you anymore. Sadly.
I suggest back up plan being start software engineer role for £100k and sell the pressure washing leads on for a profit until you can make it work
Coming up next: we buyed 3 villas to earn money
Buyed?
It’s 3am and I just saw your etoro add for the 888 billion time
What’s that?

@@Ray_Vun you must be driving w123 or w124 to praise the german built quality. 🤣

lol, gaming channel and now we might get a "how to fix a van" channel but Bali first yeh
gaming channel already dead apparently, people have said in other comments they haven't uploaded there in like a month
@ dead already? I guess it served its purpose, content. What happened to the onlyfans.
