No actually this is system of fucked up society. Either that or he is too cheap to hire people to work for him and his daughter. I was working in Austria had my fast food stand and guess what? I could afford myself vacation within first 4 months. During second year i could be away for 8 weeks a year, now i don't even have to work anymore with only 3 fast food stands.

I could be wrong but I think he enjoys the lifestyle. I tried sleeping in my car for a couple weeks during a cross country trip and it’s actually easier than one would think. He probably finds satisfaction being in a busy city and not bored being in a quiet suburb

I remember these guys the last time that my family went to New York. We were at the MET (in typical tourist style) and we had some object that we couldn’t bring in due to the MET policies. They offered to place it into their food truck so we didn’t have to buy one of those expensive and overprice bag lockers. It was a real act or genuine kindness and I was so incredibly grateful as it was a dream of mine to finally visit the museum (we live in Australia). Huge shout out to them ❤️❤️ Plus they have great street food !!! Def check them out and support them!
Don't get it fucked up. He's doing that to make sure he doesn't lose his spot, not because he's homeless. Some of these NY hot dog stands make big money (the ones in good spots, like this one). Like the daughter said, she has a masters degree and still does this. This is way more profitable. But it's also very difficult to get a a spot for one of these stands.
Came here last week. If I lived in NYC, this would be the only hotdog cart I would go to. It's horrible to see there are so few independent vendors in the City. Stay strong, guys. I'll visit you again soon!
What a great story, I'll head down there tomorrow for a dog. She seems like a sweetheart and pops seems like a great man. Thank you for your service, Rossi's.
The most expensive place to vend in New York City is the Metropolitan Museum. It has bid for over $500,000 (a half a million bucks) in the past. Because of their veteran status, they get the spot for free. Trick is, they always have to occupy it. So, you could say is it worth $500k to sleep there? Probably. And that is why they do it. The Met gets over 2,5M visitors a year, and it is not as seasonal as most other locations.
Ohh that makes sense. I visited the Metropolitan Museum a couple months back and noticed that most of the vendors were former veterans. Made sure to buy a hotdog!
@@hanjoshitmata5602 apparently you didn't watch the video though - the majority of those vendors are not actually veterans, but rather, veterans who get a cart and then lease their cart out to someone else.
As a New York City native and the wife of a soldier we will 100% support this cart when we visit home. Thank you for your service and best of luck in your endeavors!
Massively inspiring - lovely to see videos made about good, honest people and not the usual grifters we see on youtube. This really warmed my heart - thank you.
He could retire if he leased his permit like everyone else did, he said he didn't want to. Plus he gets government benefits like every other disabled veteran.
Much respect to both, especially the father who continues to work instead of taking breaks. It’s crazy world we live in and we gotta fight to survive everyday. Much love
Actually Fred in Russia where they have single payer this guy and his daughters disabilities would be completely covered and cost us the taxpayer less.
We are coming up to NYC at the end of this month Aug 2019 . We are staying at the YMCA down the street and we will deff come by for a hotdog as soon as we get in! Awesome video and we cant wait to help support your business if only a couple hotdogs.
rollin thirtys as someone who works at a YMCA (not saying which one for privacy) that if you really needed a place to stay they would let you say but I can’t say for sure as I work as a lifeguard I don’t have to go through thay
Certain Ys have a hostel inside them . Basically a hotel .. it's a super affordable way to stay in NYC without having to spend $$$.. its half the cost of a regular hotel.
Served their country and then working their butts off even after that...god bless them and give them the strength. Definitely visiting and getting some good hotdogs!
That's what happens when you go to another country and kill innocent people/steal resources (aka oil) thinking you're "serving/defending" your country... It's called KARMA
There is difference in pension of a veteran serving a couple of tours and a veteran serving for more than 20 years. A career soldier can retire financially stable.
AMAZING HOT DOG!!! It was my first time eating a NYC hotdog and I dont like hotdogs. Gotta try the experience, right? I ate the entire thing and loved every bite. Elizabeth was extremely amicable and thoughtful of us as not only customers, but people. Thank you!!! Highly recommend the Jumbo all the way!

I’ve never seen a New York City vendor that was so nice and kind! She warned people that the hot dogs were hot and it’s those Little things that matter.

@@glorymanheretosleep exactly, most people who never served have no idea how easy it is to get disability payments the rest of your life for bullshit. I've seen it myself with people who never even freaking deployed.
There’s a homeless veteran downtown Madison asking for help but he shows an ID. I can’t imagine how that must feel. Although at first I didn’t understand why he showed an I’d. Thanks to this veterans explanation I now know why.
It just never occurred to me that people lie..particularly about something so important, but I guess survival always outweighs being moral for some people...I suppose most of us might do things we wouldn’t normally do if we had absolutely nothing and nobody. Although my first spending would be on clothing and haircut to get a job. Being addicted to alcohol and drugs prevents people from having a life that contributes to society.
First off, mad respect and admiration for this man, for serving his country and then continue to work, no vacation, no stopping, just go go go, and not feeling sad about it. He knows that is the life he has and he does not whine about it. Also, his daughter is a good daughter, working with him when she could be using her masters and working at a school elsewhere. Lastly, and completely unrelated, this story reminded me of my girlfriend, who is in the reserves but at some point, after she earns her nursing degree, wants to volunteer to go on a deployment, to use her skills to hopefully save more than one soldier, and then work at the VA, caring for injured and disabled soldiers. While military life is new to me, hearing about stories about veterans and their struggles makes me admire her more. I may not be looking forward to the day she goes on deployment but I sure as hell plan to support her, because it is a commendable thing to do.
#respect! I am in Texas. If this video was out here in Texas, you would a have line every day. This would be free marketing for you. The food truck industry has taken over for the last 7 years here. Thank you for what you done for this country. We love Veterans and we love locals/food truck.

There’s a homeless veteran downtown Madison asking for help but he shows an ID. I can’t imagine how that must feel. Although at first I didn’t understand why he showed an I’d. Thanks to this veterans explanation I now know why.

You’ve never heard of ‘stolen valour’??
It just never occurred to me that people lie..particularly about something so important, but I guess survival always outweighs being moral for some people...I suppose most of us might do things we wouldn’t normally do if we had absolutely nothing and nobody. Although my first spending would be on clothing and haircut to get a job. Being addicted to alcohol and drugs prevents people from having a life that contributes to society.
I really hope they will continue to operate amidst COVID! Thank you for everything!
You can tell Elizabeth is such a sweetheart right away.
First off, mad respect and admiration for this man, for serving his country and then continue to work, no vacation, no stopping, just go go go, and not feeling sad about it. He knows that is the life he has and he does not whine about it. Also, his daughter is a good daughter, working with him when she could be using her masters and working at a school elsewhere. Lastly, and completely unrelated, this story reminded me of my girlfriend, who is in the reserves but at some point, after she earns her nursing degree, wants to volunteer to go on a deployment, to use her skills to hopefully save more than one soldier, and then work at the VA, caring for injured and disabled soldiers. While military life is new to me, hearing about stories about veterans and their struggles makes me admire her more. I may not be looking forward to the day she goes on deployment but I sure as hell plan to support her, because it is a commendable thing to do.
I love you both. Keep your heads up.ill be there spring of 2021. Thanks for your service. And I'll see you then
