I don’t know how but you’ve managed to package an unbiased analysis that is more entertaining than the sensationalized segment of economic and financial news. Thank you for your efforts to be the signal and not the noise. I understand that the economy is currently in a downturn and that we must wait for things to get better
As hard as it may sound you can plan for the recession. If you are working, find extra work and get an Invest--advisor. Protect your deposits by having enough cash in short term fixed income. Then cut your expenses. Minimal insurance, cut utilities.
I think the current market might give opportunities to maximize profit within a short term, but in order to execute such strategy , you must be a skilled practitioner
It's often true that people underestimate the importance of financial advisors until they feel the negative effects of emotional decision-making. I remember a few summers ago, after a tough divorce, when I needed a boost for my struggling business. I researched and found a licensed advisor who diligently helped grow my reserves despite inflation. Consequently, my reserves increased from $275k to around $750k.
Even if you have a humongous income you still need to draw up futuristic plans because anything can happen. One could lose one's job or whatever. Investment cannot be overemphasized. About your advisor, how does one reach pls
Finding financial advisors like Melissa Terri Swayne who can assist you shape your portfolio would be a very creative option. There will be difficult times ahead, and prudent personal money management will be essential to navigating them.
Considering the economic situation I ask,?? How can we save our families and friends from financial slavery. It's getting more scary how people are really suffering these days.l can't fold and watch people around me suffer.
I've seen positive reviews of this professional, she must be exceptional for people to talk about her goodness..

I don't have any problem with people making enough money to support themselves working at a hospital. I have a problem with Heads of Hospitals making a fortune.
Right ! Besides lots of them are using the Medicare and Medicare system illegally. Lots of scams. So much fraud !
$8 beer and $20 burger plus tip. We don’t go out anymore
Restaurants today: Higher prices, smaller portions, lower quality and shitty service. We stopped eating out 5 years ago. Don't miss it.
Gen Z servers complaining that the Boomers didn't bus their own table. No thanks.
After listening to your advice Dan. I think people are realizing the old school American way of having the privilege to work and BORROW money to keep you in debt for life is out the door. Inflation is so bad that we have to BORROW for many ordinary things now. The American dream is now officially a nightmare. Keep pounding people on your great advice.
I never borrowed money in my life😊
Yet, our so-called leaders' national priority is on foreign wars.
They are trying to hold on to their global hegemony thinking that once they secured their position, then they can focus back on fixing our economy.
What they fail to realize is that there won't be a United States by the time they come to their senses!
@@EconomyisFine-oe1sedo you want a trophy? Most people are forced to at one point, due to ignorance or circumstance. Most people think this necessary to borrow capital to make a business. I’m happy for you, but you are rare . And need attention.
No Condition Is Permanent. Borrow or not.
You CAN live on the $80 per week sales of your plasma. I"ve done it.

Full time college loans give you 12k per year
I live in Spartanburg SC. It was announced today that a restaurant that has been in business for 47 years is closing due to the cost of operation. It's sad seeing these landmarks with a loyal customer base can't even hang on through this.
Too many restaurants have raised prices and decreased the value for me as a dining patron. I will not spend money for the current wave of treatment I am seeing. They can all close and be reset to zero.
AND THEY WILL 😢 NEVER TO RETURN 😮
I'm doing well as a dog walker/ pet sitter thus far and it's getting even better. Go figure.
But, I'm not married and have no dependants; except a couple of rescue pups. I took care of my mom and dad and their property for years.
So, now my parents are gone and I'm healthy... knock on wood...
At 68 I have been gladly doing this pet gig career for over 40 years! I drive a 2002 Tundra truck. Pay $52.50 for insurance that includes a Northstar Truck Camper. I bought it new during the PLANDEMIC... I had a Prius, but decided to sell it sadly, but I love my trucks!
They help people and haul hay etc.
I had it completely restored. Runs great!
I saw what we were going to go through back in the day. Call it premonition, but I needed to guard myself regardless of what people and family said and became a minimalist.
Dan, we owned a FINE restaurant for years on the beach and began to realize that people EAT ...THEY DON'T DINE... It's a different world now!
Most little communities and neighborhoods used to be so cute and clean. I walk by now and they look like crap. Homes are dilapidated and their yards untouched. No one seems to care anymore. Perhaps, that's why the HOA has so much control?

I DON'T THINK WE HAVE TO REMIND ANYONE 😢 😮
I used to go to restaurants and everyone there was fat, have tattoos, bringing babies, looking at phones, and constantly swearing.
Yea for some reason I have been going to restaurants less and less over the last 15 years- service sucks at most of these places, then inflation hit- go figure
@@NoDaysOff-oz2zl you are a realist. 👍 although funny 😂
Apples was up to 101.00 plus tip for 2-3 even in mid 2000s- no way am I going to these places.
Pizza Hut..I worked at one on 1984 while I was going to chef school. We were packed..line ups all the time. Yes waitresses, busboys..full menus we had lasagna and all kinds of pasta, a salad bar. Beers, full bar, take out, delivery..wow..deserts almost forgot about dessert. Cheesecake etc. we even had a dessert pizza. Made great money..managers were paid 23k a year. Living large back then for that.
Hut in the 80's/90's was great. I ordered one last years and it tasted like cardboard.
Hut in the 80's and 90's probably 00's were great times in those decades order pizzas for party events sporting events time with the family that don't have time to cook dinner etc,fun times.
I have fond memories of the pan pizza,
The Pizza lunch buffet ❤
Manager still making 26 a year 😢
Pizza Hut also once served beer! I remember going to a sit-down PH, with a couple friends/coworkers, and ordering a pitcher of beer with our pizza. This was almost a regular Friday ritual. Such were the days when the Human Spirit was still alive.
Yes! Beer served in ice cold heavy glass frosty mugs…..about $1.00 each😊
Pizza Hut was great when I was a kid in Australia, family night, eat in, all ya can eat, desert bar etc etc, loved it. All gone now where I live.
But many restaurants were in at seem to be going well 👍.
Too MANY Chain Restaurants , especially fast food & the food is not that good....don't care if they 'collapse".
.Mom & Pop and single owner chefs restaurants & single owner pizzerias are the best & they will always be supported
It’s not the restaurants we have to worry about, it’s all the job losses when they close
I was at an Applebee's a couple months ago and was astounded by how horrible the service was. I sat at the bar and no one even offered to serve me. I had to move to a booth and even then it took like 15 minutes for a server to talk to me. This was 5pm on a Wednesday and they were not that busy. I'm surprised more of them arent closing.
Plus the food at Applebees is microwaved. I know I’m a cook that used to work there which is why I stopped going years ago. Sad about the service.
@@robindurham346Could you elaborate on this? Do you mean that literally all of the hot food there is precooked somewhere else and microwaved?
There is NO excuse for servers not greeting customers and taking at least a beverage order within 2-3 minutes. Manager is clearly no doing their job.
We never go there, never have
IT'S COMING 😢
My son, who's 50, was taking his 4 year old granddaughter into McDonald's. There was a young guy smoking a joint, definitely skunk weed. Outside the door. My son walked into McDonald's he looked up, and this same skunk smoker worked there and took his order. This guy definitely didn't wash his hands, and he was touching his dread locks to get them out of his eyes so he could see the cash register. The girl with the purple and pink hair with all the face piercing was cooking. This is a joke and we're paying these clowns 14 dollars an hour in illinois. Ronald McDonald you got competition with your workers, they're out clowing you.
McDonald's looked like fun when I was a kid, now they look like mini prisons
That's beyond ridiculous, I wonder how could employers allow employees smoke joint while at work either at break time or not! It's wrong.
I would take a walk and leave for somewhere cleaner 😅
Let's resegregate
Last time I went the clerk couldn’t count change and tried to short me by 10.00!
Jeez,just in the 2010-ish, I remember the pizza hut buffet for $7.99. All you can eat pizza,drink,and salad
yep, hubby and I used to go for the buffet lunch every wed.
in NYC I see restaurants closing up everyday
Are yooou sure about that????
It's climate change.
@@EconomyisFine-oe1sehe lying. NYC is thriving.
GOOD RIDDANCE
@@225gifted_friend6 that's what I've been hearing I have a neighbor that goes there just about every day on business. She also has a lot of family in NYC. Things are not that bad that I asked her about the crime and she said it's not any worse than any other times. I haven't been to NYC in over 30 years
Talking to local restaurateurs its been slowing progressively since the start of the year. "We're just hanging on..."
$4.00 for a slice of pizza? Hang on by your fingernails.....I'm cooking at home. You should have listened.
I’m a veteran of the hospitality industry of 40 years. This trend has been happening for the past ten years, it’s only now very visible in the economy. This will have very serious implications for the economy for decades to come. It’s a foundational strata of our economy and it’s no longer viable to function.
There are self driving trucks carrying merchandise across the country as we speak, driven by robots. We’re in the fourth Industrial Revolution, one of AI and robotics taking over human jobs. The next shift will be Universal basic income because jobs are no longer available in both white and blue collar jobs, medical and legal industries, restaurants, all brick and mortar stores, government, transportation, etc.
Up here in Canada i notice most restaurants are empty.And when i can afford to eat out i pay twice as much and get half of the previous portion sizes discouraging me from ever eating out period.
Mayor Melvin Carter is the St. Paul mayor. And having his college loan paid off is a crime. Love the VW van parade! Thanks Dan.
Our local Pizza hut was turned into a pawn shop.
Does the pawnshop sell good pizza?
I spot the former Pizza Huts all the time; stand alone, oriental style flat roof with 75 degree overhangs. Chipotle lives in one nearby all flat gray instead of red.
I turned a tattoo parlor into a jewelry store...only in Hawaii. It was location location location
I almost never eat in restaurants now. I'm not paying exorbitant prices to dine out because someone thinks I should support local business. My income has hardly increased.
It’s also peoples livelihoods. Those jobs are disappearing. Less and less options for workers.
@@Munjajane That's how it goes when economic conditions deteriorate. They'll have to do something else for a livelihood. It's not my responsibility. To keep doing this is like printing money or spending money to get out of debt. I'm doing what I can to save myself.
@@Munjajane You can thank Bill Clinton Nafta which moved all manufacturing jobs to India, China, Vietnam, Mexico. They wanted slave labor at the expense of destroying all small cities in USA.
The goal is to bankrupt the prosperous, then subsidize the disadvantaged to take over what has been taken from the prosperous.
Sounds like Early Leninist Russia.
ITS ACTUALLY MUCH MUCH MUCH DEEPER THAN THAT!!!!
You have it all backwards son !!!!!
The middle class always picks up the tab. Not the rich.
Prosperous == Honest, hard-working, responsible
Au Bon Pain - "They're going to close 100 locations because nobody can pronounce the place." WHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!! Thank you for injecting your wonderful sense of humor amidst the dismal state of restaurants throughout the United States.
I never really thought about how many people and businesses are affected by the closing of a restaurant - right down to the corrugated cardboard for boxes to carry supplies. Thank you Dan for the information. Keep on keepin' on!
I grew up in the 60s 70s ..got married in 80s ...life was good..but it was struggle..i miss the people connections..everybody was on the page..today's generation has no idea what freedom is..they have been brain washed into believing that everything is alright..NOT!!😮😮
corporate greed is killing our economy making it impossible for any small business to survive. make your own food at home. more healthy anyway. i owned a 4 star restaurant for ,many years. it is a nightmare business. would never do it again
Exactly, I wish there was more of a focus on corruption, the root cause & productive ways to avoid & help to stop it. Sadly most of these vid's from Dan & Jeremiah Babe are just reporting the negative news but not the root cause. I am seeing a shift with Bordenaro recently and now his views are in the 100k's like Patara. They tend to tackle tough topics that engage the viewer which sparks a more productive exchange.
Yeah I remember when Pizza Hut was an actual restaurant...I also Remember as a kid when Arby's first opened they sliced the meat right off of Real Roast... I also remember when a big Mac was big...😅
That's the thing about aging, you remember how things used to be..
How big do you need your burger to be?
yes, and Pizza Hut used to have a salad bar as well back in '73.
Dan, as a fiscal conservative living in the progressive state of CA, you probably feel as lonely as me living in another progressive state, ie MA. There are so many highly educated people in my state drinking the koolaid. It’s ridiculous. Thanks for everything you do!
Loved the VW bus video. I have made my living my whole life on these never dying vehicles. Such a marker of time. Thanks for giving them the attention.
When I was a kid Wendy’s had a salad bar and it was good 👍
$300 billion to Ukraine and $700 to Maui that’s your president you voted for America
If he's president for another 4 more years expect to be cooking more at home .

@@tiffanyisaacson1407 ....you might not even be able to afford to do that.

No we didn't.
Henry Ford said about his paying $ 5.00 per day. How are they going to be able to buy our cars if they don't have enough money?
This is exactly the point! Fucking greedy bastards are going to pay when they go bankrupt and can’t cover their loans. We need a reset and real managers who understand the reason businesses exist..to support all the stakeholders
We went to our local Olive Garden at 6p this past Saturday night (had won a 50$ gift card). Normally, there would have been a 30 minute wait (Northeast FL). Walked right in, parking lot was BARREN. Overhead the restaurant manager say to a passing waiter “God, looks like it’s going to be a repeat of last Saturday”. Left at 7p, still maybe 1/4 full.
Truck operators going bust because of the restriction put on them.
Meth has been supplanted by fentynal. tweakers make good truckers until they don't.
I paid off my student loans of over $20K years ago and I would like that back. I worked extra jobs on the side to do so.
Less than 10% of student loans have been forgiven. Most are paying them off.
@@MikeySmithJones sure they are.
You'll be working on that the rest of your life .
The question you should ask is who and why them and not others. @@phxmateo
When restaurants slow down or close, the food that normally would go to them is re-routed to other businesses, including grocery stores. Those meals will be eaten in homes instead of in a restaurant. Do you remember during the shut-down when restaurants were closed, along with conferences, parties, churches, etc. where food is served? That food, if you recall, was sent instead to stores. Products not seen before appeared in huge amounts in the cold cases, on the shelves, etc. and often were sold in very large quantities. That was at the beginning. It took time for these restaurant suppliers to be able to repackage this food for store consumption, and there are licenses that must be gotten to make the switch. When restaurants opened up again, they returned to normal distribution. The point I am trying to make is that if I eat lunch out every day at a restaurant and then than restaurant closes down, I'm going to eat. Whether I go to another restaurant each day or eat at home, I still am eating the available food. We underestimate our ability to morph into new supply chains and new distribution systems. But we did that before, and we may have to do it again, but for different reasons. Stores are getting more into prepared meals now. They are cheaper than restaurants, and take little trouble to pop into the oven or microwave. Take the food to the beach, to the park, to a friend's house - whatever, if you want to just get out of the house. Or invite some people over, and you can still socialize. Everything is simply too expensive these days.
We are senior citizens and the last few years we went to restaurants 2-3 times a week just to support the ‘local’ businesses. We now only get coffee when we run errands. Nothing more.
First video where public is looking at something other than I phone!🧤👍
I am 63 and I am starving to death people tell me how good I look now that ive lost weight. WTF
A lot of people 26 or 40 are not even buying groceries. They are buying noodles or going to food banks. Restaurants will continue to close. BUT we have had a glut of food services vying for our food budget. To predict where the industry is going to equalize is hard to guess since most analysts are too cautious in their estimates of how bad things will be in general. I think the independent Ma and Pa places will be the first to re-open once the local demand is figured out.
There is more in life than going out to eat. It takes a while for that to catch on.
I don't know I don't go out to eat😮
look the people, most need diets and fasting.
@@user-vw8nh4dw2o that is so true
@@user-vw8nh4dw2oain’t that the truth……Fatties Everywhere you look
@@user-vw8nh4dw2o Here in South Texas some of the old timers had this old saying. "Every man needs at least one good ass kicking at some point in life." I suppose it is necessary in order to truly understand the true nature of the Universe.
I think it was in the mid 1980’s , they were talking about taking all the money from every one and then dividing it equally. So everyone would start over with the same amount. they said if that was done , within 5 years the wealthy would be wealthy again and the poor would be broke again.
Pizza Hut was the hangout!! They had the best creamy Italian dressing ever!!
Restaurant dining is a luxury . Smart people financially do not patronize the thousands of restaurants in America that provide poor quality food at high prices.
We don't dine out as a result . Buy your own food and learn how to cook. It will save you lots of money .
Then you can vacation in foreign countries and enjoy real food. !!!
Dan ,wonderful walk and talk with the bug mobiles in the background😊
Inflation is the biggest issue hurting the restaurant industry. I'd guess that remote work has also hurt the restaurant industry quite a bit. As well as the growing awareness for how unhealthy vegetable oils are which are hard to avoid at restaurants.
Sweet buses!
Here is Wichita Kansas, our laundromat is starting to suffer, that is a good sign that people are running out of money. We are seeing our income drop 40%. At first, we thought it was something we are doing wrong... we gage customers to see what are needed to improve customer experiences... after a few months, and checking with other businesses around the area, we are starting to realized that people are out of money due to job loss and inflation. I am starting to home for sale in the area linger around long with average $110/sqft, price drop $5k is common now.
Smelly people wearing their laundry more then once eww 😮
Dan, you have the gift of telling the unpleasant truth in a calm, rational manner.
Back in the day I always loved going to the Pizza Hut in North Conway after a day on the slopes. It was always packed, buzzing with activity, and was a great place to warm up. The windows were always fogged up. It was a blast. There are barely any Pizza Huts left in New England. It's really sad.
Dan, just so you're aware, l truly appreciate all the excellent content you provide every single day. This is a true story, l look for your channel..FIRST thing every single day. Never quit UA-cam.
Applebee's is only good for rib specials. IHOP is $33 for simple breakfast and coffee for 2. This will not work for me.
I doubt it.
The past 40 years we've had artificial growth due to credit.
No such thing as artificial growth.
@@MrSteeDoo Have any idea how much the check every month to the Credit card banks is for most restaurants? Take a wild guess!
Thanks so much Dan. It's really trippy watching you walk in two videos at the same time. Fits right in with the buses!:) Take care all
you don't seemed to consider that most resturants are massivley overpriced and expensive---a lot of this is there own doing by being greedy . it's the same in the UK eating out is very expensive for quite often poor meals with even worse service.
I haven’t been to a restaurant since they shut in convid
me too, maybe longer. but one time, I tried a quick lunch.. as soon I got the food, it was in the garbage can.
Not for nothing: that Times Square Red Lobster needs to close. THEY ARE HORRIBLE
One way I judge the economy is when I go out to eat on a weekend and I either have to wait forty five minutes for a table ( good economy) or I see empty tables (bad economy).
I went to the Chili Dog for Lunch today and ordered 2 Chili Cheese Dogs and a Large Coke. Cost $10!! Place was dead. 5 years ago place was jammed....today, Ghost Town. Nobody has money!!!!
All of those chain restaurants you read off are garbage food restaurants. All of them. Garbage companies are destined to fail. I've stopped going to restaurants where I live because I won't pay $50 for a burger and a drink.
Many dumpsters got better food than many restaurants.
@@user-vw8nh4dw2o Truth. I watched 2 rich girls toss their pizzas, procured from the tastiest place in town, into a public trash can as they walked by a couple of weeks ago. Delicious.

The day they start closing mass numbers of In-N-Out Burgers, the end game will have arrived.
You seem prophetic👍😂
That’s true. Somehow I see in and out burgers being less greedy than these other huge corporations who only think about the next quarter and write themselves huge bonuses for the officers. That’s all they care about.
Think about the pets being surrendered. The youngins are still hungry everyday but have no food on multiple days. There is not enough gas money for the month. Can't get to work...less money. That is a terrifying traumatic stress inducing panic for living souls.
The money the Gov spend on 'war,' ordinary folks would have a very pleasant life.
Surrendered? More like just being thrown onto the streets. It's horrible!
@PinkLady7752 yes. Absolutely
I agree...but the yuppie pet propaganda raised the ante so high many forgot dogs and cats don't need all that crap. In the "depression" videos people in tenements are holding the pets and giving them leftovers. The pets meant everything to the children and still do. The rabies shots and maybe heartworm pills are the expense. Like so much, keeping a pet became a status contest and now nobody can afford to show off like that. Time to question the narrative.
Suzie Orman just said for retired people not to go to restaurant's.
yah it's a waste of money
Retirees need to save for the Part D/ Medicare Drug price explosion they warn is coming.
Rich people are still spending plenty of dough here in (southern) Maine. I was in Portland last Saturday on the waterfront and it was bustling with business. We have plenty of cruise ship business too.
Alot of those people are grandfathered in, as they own their home. The have the "good climate." So many of us xers and millennials are sweating it out in Texas, for the jobs. I'm jealous of their cool air, I wouldn't mind their winters either. At lest they have the ability to plow the roads, unlike this God forsaken place.
You must excuse me....this comes after 1 week no power due to a wind storm. This is not to mention , 4 major disasters here in a 10 year span.
We have hunger awareness month here in the US, yet we send billions overseas for nonsense.
Oh no it’s pride month sir. You could be canceled for saying that and not recognizing lgtqrtsuv nuts
I thought it was gay pride month?
Nobody is hungry in the USA. Everybody is fat.
SAY IT LOUDER!
Look at the bright side, we will be slimmer and healthier and richer.
Yay! The latest numbers I found are that -
STILL - 70% of USA adults are in the
categories of either Overweight or Obese.
The sole, true purpose of food is : Energy.
Nothing else.
("Comfort Food" is just an excuse to overeat)

Slimmer and healthier yes, but not richer.
Yes, exactly… to many people are overweight and unhealthy- right now your health is the most important thing to have!!

Pizza Hut! Dang, Dan that brings back so many happy memories. The guy whose yard I cut as a kid, would occasionally take me there for lunch. Shakey's Pizza was a family outing favorite of ours when I was a kid. As a teen, Pizza Inn was a Sunday night regular. I would drive to pick it up after I got my driver's license. After school, we loved Totinos frozen pizza. Now, Totinos are ridiculously expensive for what you get. Domino's was new when I was in college, but I haven't bought one in years because the quality has dropped. I learned to make pizza (sauce and dough), from watching UA-cam videos. So much better than takeout and much cheaper!
Dan, just had to deal with a scam email from supposedly UPS. It said my order was delayed because of wrong address. I updated the address. Then a screen popped open saying I needed to pay extra for delivery and asked for my credit card info. I immediately deleted the email and blocked them. Bas turds!!!
thanks for the extra effort and getting us a closer look at those awesome Vans... way cool and on the HB Pier... thanks Dan, enjoyed the show
Glad you covered this. Breakfast for 2 at Denny’s now comes to $50 bucks! That used to cover dinner for 2 at a decent steakhouse. My monthly “eat out” expense is now over $1k per month. Time to tighten the belt. My son is a manager 😢for a juice and mixer distributor - restaurants, bars and hotels make up 90% of his volume. Better watch out!
My husband manages food factory managers on the East coast. We want to have money at the end of the month, so we're only eating out 2 times per month. Sit down restaurants with a server, and food we will really enjoy. Trading up, so they say. Fast food is so expensive, that swapping for a trade up makes sense. Ofcorse, I really have to be on top of the food production at home so we don't get caught out. We finally made it financially, but it will be ending, they are moving to outsourcing, and frozen product in the next couple years. That's all I should say due to contract/ silence agreement. It's the silent depression. It's worse than most people know.
The landlord is putting him safe out of business and that shop will stay empty for years
How about parents who put their kids through college? They must be pulling their hair out, wishing they'd let their kids take out loans that would end up being forgiven. Crazy times.
Dude, you are in Orange County, California; among the highest cost of living in America. Of course most people outside of the beach communities don’t have a pot to piss in! Same here in San Diego!
Amen!

Wow a lot of business closing, thanks for the info, that's why I like to watch you, keeps me informed of what is going on
Amazing show today, Dan!! Love those old VW vans. I might watch it again, just to see the artistic work that's been done to these classics!
Those busses will still run, be repairable and cool in 50 years.
Marie Callender frozen food is garbage 🗑 quality nowadays
I saw a UA-cam channel do a walk through of Hollywood, and most stores, restaurants are closed. There's a few souvenir shops, but that's about it. You should take us there! I'd love to see your take. 2:26
I love seeing all the vintage VW Buses! Thank you for sharing them with those of us who can’t be there!
I do not answer calls if the number is from someone not in my call list. If they leave a message and I want to talk to them, I return the call, otherwise, I block the number.🌷💐
Really like that we get to see the stuff going on in the background instead of your mug full screen.
Dan i eat out 4 times a week but only at family.owned good restaurants. No chains.
Exactly! That is the way to go 👍
I and many other viewers keep telling Dan to stop promoting & eating at fast food spots. They are literally poison & overcharging us! Talk about insult to injury. I know he gets mad when we say it but it comes from a place of love as many of us have suffered through heart issues & cancer as a result of years of fast food eating.

Here in Australia we call those "buses" Volkswagen "Kombis"..!! 👍
Great talk with scenic VW show & shine! Wonderful to see these beautiful Van - Buses!
Please Dan get you some rest. We will still be here for you
Good informational video, Dan. I enjoyed seeing all the VW Campers and Micros.
Love the VW buses!!!

Not surprising to see all those broken down busses in one place. Our family had an early 70's model back in the late 80's. Treasured memories of always being stranded with a blown engine.
Eat at home and pay off your debts, restaurant expansion was fuelled by consumer debt. 😊
Thank you for showing more of the VW’s.
Many people can not see beyond what is obvious. I told my friend in Tustin with the leaky roof about how the insurance companies are looking at roofs with drones and canceling policies, she told me not to worry, she pays her insurance every month. She also eats at Taco Bell and subway almost daily.
Thanks for the cool bus footage.
The USPS is Effed up. I recently refilled a prescription from my local pharmacy. I had them mail it out. It didn’t get here for a week I called they tracked it. It got rerouted through New Jersey. I live in Minnesota. Ridiculous.
These days, You’re lucky you even got it. A few days ago I had a script refilled at see vee ess. It was the wrong medication. I never even got an apology when I brought it back.
The usps is the usps. Machines move the mail. They generally do a good job and they are mostly veterans.
Things fall-(ing) apart!
They handle several hundred million items a day. It's gonna happen.
Wow stunning display of old busses. We used to travel to Telluride Bluegrass Festival in one of those things across the Rockies. Top speed 35 mph was the best part! 😅
Enjoyed the international bus day at the HB pier, thanks Dan you’re the man!
