I am 62 , I would advise anyone who can to leave. I have actually been in a mental asylum for predicting this in the 80s. To me after the utilities were sold off , job agencies appeared and 15% interest rates made lots of homeless, no investment lots of new landlords , no investment in youth and closing all our manufacturing it was obviously just a matter of time. The last Tory government finished the job. Brexit and selling off the rest of our assets It is obviously a plan in action. Austria has awesome water, you can drink it in the street. Good luck. I think I will subscribe to see how you do.
@@wulfsorenson8859 If it''s like Germany they all speak English. When I checked in a hotel in Germany a few years ago I spoke German and the person behind the counter spoke back in English. Which I thought was a bit annoying as I wanted to practice my German a bit. The same is true in the Netherlands, if people spot that you're not a native they'll talk English to you if you want it or not.
Between me and the mrs we earn 100k and the tax we pay is insane, I started as a shelf stacker and worked hard all my life 50-70 hours. I’m disgusted at what I earn now vs the quality of life and also disgusted that I’m paying for people to come here without ever paying into the system This country is on the verge of collapse
J D Vance is right when he said the UK will become the first Islamic state with nuclear weapons. The UN, WHO, WEF etc are all evil with puppet governments doing their bidding, especially in the west.
Spot on mate. Country run by traitors. Only way to get back at them is 1. Leave the country 2. Don’t pay taxes in the country. 3. Don’t die in the country.
Working 15 hours a day for 12 years, I’m not going to work for the dinghy tourists or for the government to fund wars all over the world. I’m moving out soon.
See this is why you shouldn't be blaming it on the "dinghy tourists" because by leaving the UK, you WILL be the migrant in another country. Do you see how hypocritical you are?
@@Mark-jb1fj I have my ex-colleagues who can tell you I sometimes worked even more than that. I know some people can’t fathom working that much, especially the English, when they have tax credits and other benefits and don’t want to work or call in sick on Mondays with migraines from drinking in the weekend.
I am a 70yr old Australian. I have been going to the UK about once every 10 years since the early 80s. My last trip was to Scotland a month ago. I was aghast at the deterioration that I saw this time. The cost and standard of food was striking. A simple meal in a pub was the cost of 'fine dining' in Australia. Any menu item with a decent amount of meat was unaffordable. I wish you luck with your move.
Fact check: Dimaggios Glasgow city centre cabonara £12.95 ($25) + 10% service charge = 27.5AUD. Vapianos Brisbane cabonara $27.5 (no service charge or tipping expected) Exactly the same price for the same dish at of comparable quality and quantity.
Britain is not a rich country. The UN just reported that once the contribution from London is excluded then Britians per capita income is LOWER than Mississippi. The poorest state in America. We keep telling ourselves comforting lies about how wonderful life is in the West. I travel a great deal in both Europe and the Americas and I can tell you this. The west is in a state of accellerating decline. Places like New York or Paris which back in the early 2000's were simply fantastic placves to be are now absolute shitholes. You know things are bad when even the rich are leaving.
London is a different country. I’m down there about 2 months a year. Stay in hotels. it’s mostly to do with art stuff. A lot of the clients for custom installations are there. It’s hard to describe what they’re doing compared to normal people. The prices are ruinous for everything. BUT you will ( if you are old enough ) remember what actual good food tastes like. Our whole food system has been so debased and adulterated in the U.K. I thought my appetite was failing. Nope it’s garbage food. But it’s everything. It’s clean down there. Tons of shops, restaurants, clubs. Transport. Beautiful hotels and police everywhere in the Center of London. The one thing is of course, the people even in London Centre have changed colour a fair bit. I’m no racist but if you’re not careful you change the whole feel of a country if you let in too many people at once. That all I say on that. London has taken almost all the money & talent from the U.K. and sucked it in to itself. It gets most funding. Most investment and most events & tourism. It needs a vast rebalancing. But what a place if you have money down there. I wish is moved in 1997 when a girlfriend wanted to go down & start an art collective. 😭 The flat we were thinking about buying for 86,000£ is now 1.3m 🫡🪦
@@donna9679 I’ll say this. I’ve been going down to London every year bar 1 for the last 20 years every summer to do art shows do commission installations for those with real money. And even though I wasn’t looking for it. I noticed the amount of non white non English origin people in London especially in the last 10 years. And to continue. I have a few friends who live there permanently. They said the amount of people who want to work cash in hand but can hardly speak English was crazy the last 5 years. They are in bonded delivery’s so that could never happen. But they have a lot of people asking… 🤷🏻♂️
@@Britishguydt8nf Brittany or Aquitaine. They have half the numbers of illegal migrants that the UK does because the hoops you have to jump through to become part of legal society with all the advantages which that entails are difficult to achieve. Medical insurance, skills requirements, police records confirmation and wealth guarantees mean the majority just keep heading towards Calais! Most illegals end up in kettled Ghettos in three or four major cities! Meanwhile France is two and half times the size of the UK with housing half the price, functioning health care and better weather!
I'm 52 and I was Born in Coventry, England. I have lived in New Zealand, Australia and Cornwall. since 2016 I have lived in Chiang Mai, Thailand. I can live very comfortably for less than £1000 per month. The UK has some lovely countryside, coastline, historic towns and quaint villages. However, I agree, the country is fucked and I can never see it ever getting better. The governments and previous Governments since Blair have ruined our country, through mass immigration, a piss poor criminal justice system, 'printing' digital money out of this air, mishandling this money and taxes and giving our country away. I am no longer proud to be British. I am both tremendously saddened and disgusted that so many lost their lives for our freedoms and for a good decent country and respectful society and for what!!!?😡 Good luck in you next chapter Daryl, I don't blame you.
Agree. It almost feels that things would have been better had we surrendered to the Germans. When Sunak left the war memorial service because he had somewhere else to go presumably with better wine and lobster I felt ashamed. At least he left because he doesn’t care rather than stay and pretend to care.
@@kellywalker4494 I've often wondered the same thing myself Kelly. Did we really win the war? All those people died for nothing, only for our country to be given away to our foreign enemies.
We have been looking at Chang Mai too. But the challenge is we have 2 kids, 15 and 8. How's the schools there? Or do we better wait until they go into uni?
Assuming that you have a pension, were you able to transfer your accumulated contribution in denmark to Uk? Will you be able to move it to spain? If not, does it still worth to loose years of savings? How will you retire in spain?
@@SSupernova You do not need to move your pension as long as there is a double taxation agreement; so depends on where you're from. Also as I will be getting Danish and UK pensions, so I will be exposed to currency fluctuations then
Denmark has gone down the shitter too , it’s horrible , miserable now . I moved to Spain , 20 min north of Valencia by the beach. Peaceful, nice , great weekly markets ,fresh groceries, fruits, cheap utilities, etc . 🎉
As a successful business owner who was paying 6 figure taxes each year, we have now moved the business protocols to adjust to pay as little tax as possible to not fund this government and their inability to keep promises and stop the boats. We no longer buy anything or do business with non natives.
I moved to Australia from the UK in 2010......It was the hardest 10 years of my working life. The TV programme wanted down under paints a rosy lovely weather narrative. In short it was more of a police state than you can imagine. I came back when the plandemic started as it was a 'no jab no job'. I gave up my house and job as well as the kids schools. I unlike millions did my research and knew what the agenda was. All what is happening is being done by design. Hard to digest for many but its the truth of it. A hunger games society awaits us. Travel whilst you can because the coming agenda will soon STOP all travel.......15 minute cities and a flying ban looms..... Greatest of luck on your journey mate, im off too...... PS no conspiracy theorists were harmed due to not taking the poison........
Completely agree mate, I can’t believe people can’t see this and I’m one of the lucky ones who is mortgage free with savings. I’ve been contemplating going for a while but I can see the same agendas playing out through the different countries too, even Africa are implementing the biometrics. Give me a remote island anywhere 🙏
Agreed me and my family and my missus who worked in the convid ward all opted out of that cult. We r off to Asia 2025 summer. UK is finished by design.
My husband was born and raised in the UK. In his 20s, he emigrated to New Zealand and lived there for a few years. Then emigrated to Australia. Lived there for 10 years or so. Turned out to be a police state, worse than the UK. In the end came back to Britain, back to his roots, to his friends and family. As they say, the grass is greener on the other side.
The funny thing is that the 90s were great for the social scene. Bloody awful working for abysmal wages and trying to keep a roof over your head though! Hence why I emigrated in the mid 90s! And stupidly returned in the 2000s....
Spot on again mate 👌 I just turned 34 , if I was 34 in the 1980s I would have had a 3 bed house for 25k on 14k salary and enjoying the good life , previous gens had lived the dream, were living a nightmare , its so unfair and I'm not proud to be British I can tell ya that
@Obatala_Vibez spot on mate probs 250k-500k depending on area, boomers had it great and now got it even better with there over bloated valued properties , hence why alot of boomers sell up move abroad cos of the value boom they cashed in Or they stay in there boomer houses and enjoy having security from that asset exploding in price It sucks how unfair this country is and how easy previous generations had it
I don't blame you at all for leaving, my son is 30y and left for Dubai four years ago, he has a fantastic lifestyle, loves the UAE. I hope to be able to settle in Abu Dhabi when I retire 🤞 As you say this country has had it. It all goes back to the 90s when Tony Blair and Gordon Brown de-regulated, the "Big Bang" saw people that couldn't really afford it get 100% mortgages where previously they couldn't; debt levels escalated massively and they want to keep people in debt to profit from it. The dirty money swilling about the City had never been addressed, they won't address it. The big banks and financial institutions are quietly buying up land and housing so they have everyone even further over a barrel. Go somewhere that will appreciate you and have a great life!!
Yeah living the dream off the backs of others💀💀 the only reason they had the ability to do that is because the UK stole from others. The longevity wasn't gonna be around forever. The dream they were living in was built on sand because it was never done by the right means or honourably. What did you guys expect? Honestly. What a joke. Now you wanna whine about it 💀 it's actually comical to be honest.
The tragedy is that when the talented, the young, the better off leave, Islam will take over this country and really screw it up for every brit still living here.
@Adil_Turysbek_TVRC your countries learned from western minds to become a better civilisation, and western minds are still building there. Not Islam. Just be grateful for the other humans help.
😢 I had to quit my job, as a Junior Legal Compliance Officer in Central London when the train cost me 28% of my pay after tax. To top it off the trains are always late, delayed, once no trains for whole week from Slough I almost got fired, after having to travel for 1hrs and 20mins each way, while leaving my car on my drive, to cycle for 10mins then get the train. You cant make this stuff up!
I was impressed with Poland. I was there in July. They have no mass migration, their own currency, and their central bank has avoided QE and zero interest rates policy. Their Government has not racked up the debt. The UK has increased GDP. But the actual individual is poorer.
England is a small country , how is it possible to have so high population and want to import millions of immigrants? You don't have to be a genius to understand , that ordinary people will suffer from this overpopulation.
That is what is so frustrating about it, I've watched my town become jammed with immigrants for the past 20 years and everything is worse now. They are taking over entire areas and estates. They walk on the roads and i can sense how they feel like they are taking over. It makes me sick.
Because the illegal foreigners are happy to work for crap money. They don't whine and complain for clicks on the Internet like spoilt, entitled Americans. Which is the mentality of these people in England today. They refuse to put in the hours or effort to improve their lives and think they deserve £50k a year for stacking shelves at Tesco or driving a truck. Boo hoo. I came from a poor family. Struggled to get by for 13 years working every hour I could and taking a second job when needed. Finally learnt a skill people needed and moved 200 miles from where I wanted to live for a decent paying job. That's what it is to be English. To work and sacrifice to get what you want. Not cry on the Internet. Go live in Serbia earning less than £400 a month, not being able to afford food and heating out there then complain about England. There's a reason everyone wants to come here and it's because these faux English have gotten lazy and refuse to work.
@@karlherkess7066 im sick of being a minority in my own town. I am actually for immigration if it was controlled and had a means based system for only the best people....but thats not what is happening its basically open door for anyone. You cant just walk in like with other countries they are far stricter
Lloyds bank have partnered with Barrett to build homes. Lloyds bank last year said they wanted to be UKs biggest landlord. BlackRock bank in the states have shares in Lloyds banking group. Blackrock bank is the biggest landlord in the US and buying up property to rent out… go figure… at last someone has worked out the dots
This in turn will increase the number of backpackers and more homeless people. The US has a large pool of people out of the housing cycle. Why the tight grip with so many that are homeless many of which intelligent?
When I came over in the 90s the UK was a best place to be honest but in the last 10years I've seen the country gone from bad to worse and seems to be heading out to a third world state, 🌎 where you're juggling life and work to make ends meet!!!!
Leaving next month for Asia, not coming back, can't wait! Go for it everyone. If it ever does get better here, it will take decades. There are so many great countries out there who will appreciate you if you go with the right attitude. You only get one life - don't let fear dictate it. Go somewhere for a month, get a feel for the place first. I felt at home after the first few days acclimatising. It can happen that fast.
I don’t agree. Grass is always greener. But none of these foreign countries will truly be home. I lived in France for three years and despite being fluent in the language I was never accepted as a French person (because I’m not!) There is always the sense of being an outsider, of not belonging, of being away from home. I realised that it was not “home” in the way it was for French people, that I was living away from home where my family was, where my close friends were.
I'm an Australian and have the right to a British passport, but never bothered with it. Visiting the UK, I was shocked at the pilfering and theft. Someone actually stole my (used) makeup from my bag on the Tube. I wasn't expecting this because why would someone want something so personal when it's been used? I had it in a tote an open top bag because here nobody would steal that.... It's beyond belief how desperate the place is. I loved aspects of London but too many people were mean and calculating, bitter even. I had a visa for 4 years and I was back home in 4 months. The food was atrocious. A friend tried to warn me but I was wanting to see for myself. A recruiter from the firm that had me on their books, had a degree from Oxford and he had an arrogance that was out of all proportion to his skills. Clueless. The best people- in London at least - were those who don't actually come from the UK. I didn't try the North nor Wales, it was just too grim. I helped a friend or should I say 'frenemy' adjust to Australia I did so much for her. So she said if you ever go to London I will help you. She shafted me. Along with her so called friend who was supposedly going to help me. That one said: "When I came to London nobody helped me, so I'm not helping you". Astonishing really. She was a very odd person. Living there in the summer it was kind of ok but humid. However the shops, the trains were grimy everything you touch is sticky. Of course the museums are great and the mix of people fantastic, but slowly I can see the life being drained of the place. I watch documentaries about the poor and how retired people trying to manage in the winter, and it's heart-breaking. The place is riddled with crime starting with the rich. It's Dickens' times all over again. Australia has issues, that is for sure. Three of the capital cities are in the top ten in the world's most expensive cities to buy or rent a home. People are in shock at how hard it is. Wages aren't as dismal as in the UK but jobs are very difficult to get. It's much harder to emigrate and there's a colossal housing shortage here. The same thing is happening with caravan sites, the battlers, everyone who doesn't have a paid off home is being squeezed. However, in Japan you can at least buy a home very cheaply and do it up yourself. Transport is so good you will be able to commute easily. It would be too much of a culture shock for me, but it sounds perfect for you. I recommend a 2 part video by Jacques Peretti entitled 'the Super Rich and Us'. Google it, it's not available in RUclips anymore. It's brilliant and it will give a full context for what you're saying. BBC Two. All the best for you.
They want the slaves to be unable to escape. It's still a monarchy. People need to realize how insane it is. Half a billion this year for them... insane...
Was in Cambodia 10 years ago. The people are so lovely. A lot of Chinese money moving in at the time. Very cheap and fascinating place. Enjoy your adventure.
Hi all. Thank you for checking into part 2. My next vlog will be released in early November when I have escaped this dystopian mess of a country. Stay with me! Subscribe to see where I go🌏
Good luck to you. I moved here from US 30 years ago and it saddens me greatly how things have gone here. My English husband talks about moving, but we can't think where to actually go. We're following you and wish you all the best.
You are all right, 8 years ago we came from Ukraine from Kyiv, it was my dream for my son to study here. He never finished his education because Covid happened. After Brexit everything changed, we really have to survive here. Prices are huge, the weather is terrible. But I am very grateful to this country for accepting and supporting my loved ones who are here during the war. But like you, we are thinking of moving because we simply will not survive.
It's easy to understand why the UK has declined so rapidly, as flows of immigrants, legal and illegal demand for resources increase, prices increase, housing health welfare are out of control, pressure then trickles down to ordinary people who feel the economic impact. The UK has 1.6 million economically inactive foreign born people costing the UK taxpayers billions, we are spending monies on foreign wars, sending aid to countries to help reduce migration, green energy costs, all these destructive policies sinking Britain, we are governed by inept political entities who look at the world through the prism of globalism, multinational corporations own the politicians they are dictating policy, they are ultimately responsible for this chaos
@@andyskraga You've got it twisted mate. Oil is cheaper than "green" solar power and wind, especially when you consider that the prices fluctuate severely due to fluctuations in supply not matching the demand. However, the oil companies (BP, Shell et al) artificially manipulate the pricing of refined products, including petrol and kerosene ("home heating oil"). When the government took 5p/L off the fuel tariff, the prices stayed put because the market is not free, but tightly controlled by means of market collusion.
Live on a boat south east uk, off grid solar, minimum bills, good plot looking down an estuary with lots of green and lovely community.. BUT I'm selling up and heading to SE Asia, been training to work online as cant work as electrician over there. Its not just UK that's going down its the whole of the west, plus a world population cull. Nowhere is perfect for sure so we go and do our best. Taking the plunge at 51 years old can be daunting but what really have we got to lose? We all going to die may aswell die trying.
Good on your sir! You learning how to teach English online? I can’t wait to earn online money, it’s the only way for me to make it work abroad and never come back unless an emergency.
I am from Indonesia which is in SEA and the economy there is not much better. It is worse. The government raises taxes for everything. It is happening all over the world
@@christyosborne5903 yes I know its all over the world but the system is crushing the west first with an iron fist so I wanna spend my last days somewhere with better weather, nicer people and a more laid back relaxed way. If it all goes wrong and loose everything so be it, atleast I died trying instead of sitting back wondering.
I came across your channel through this video- case studies are incredibly valuable, and I'm eager to see more in the future! Building wealth involves establishing routines, like consistently setting aside funds at regular intervals for smart investments.
You're correct. I think the smartest way to go is to spread out your investments. By putting your money into different asset classes like bonds, real estate, and stocks from other countries, you can lower the risk if one part of the market goes bad.
That sounds like a good plan. In the past two years, working closely with a financial market specialist, I've built a six-figure diversified stock portfolio. Now, I aim to diversify even more this year.
Y'all put too much trust in the government. regardless of who is in power. Labour gave me free dental care and students loans. Conservatives found me a job after I had a mental breakdown. I will continue working and claiming what I'm entitled to and getting free things if I can. This is the example my parents showed me. They are pensioners now but they owned 4 properties and put two children through law school on the salary of a nurse and a teacher! Because they never stopped working, they claimed all their government entitlements and employee benefits and they got as much free and cheap stuff as they could!! They definitely did not go on a holiday overseas every year or eat out at restaurants or have regular takeaways!! They did do extra side jobs here and there but their main income was their full time job. I'm technically poor and disabled but I scrimp and save all year so that I can afford things and one holiday a year. I live in London and I go to as many free and cheap events as I possibly can. Because I wasn't raised on fast food or restaurant food I prefer to make it at home. I refuse to give energy companies all my money so I only heat one room and go to work, the swimming pool and the community centre where the heat, hot water and electricity are free for me to use!! Now if you have kids it's even harder but I do see some parents being extremely frugal.
@@marleyhill34 Your life sounds shite. Do something about it instead of relying on handouts. FFS you are promoting a parasitic existence. Thats no good. Start a RUclips channel about people left on the scrapheap or something. We only pass this way once, dont waste it.

Good luck finding your utopia that doesn’t exist! We can do without pessimistic defeatists anyway. We need positive patriots who are willing to fight for the betterment of their homeland
Why? The links of you want to be accepted in another country while you hate immigrants escaping war and poverty. I'm glad the uk is going down rapidly as it's better for world peace.
I hate it here, I'm young but over the last three years my quality of life has drastically changed for the worst, so all my hopes and dreams of living well and travelling with my loved one are crushed. Do it whilst you can, fight your fears. All love.
Respect to you Daryl and good luck. I’d say/add 3/4 things to ponder over. 1) I agree with your sentiments regarding the sad state of the UK, but this has been a long time in the making and has been mainly due to 40 plus years of very poor short-term decision making of successive UK governments selling off state assets like council houses, water, gas, telecoms without any thought for the future or infrastructure or our resources or security needs. 2) The squandering of income from our North Sea oil and gas reserves rather than investing part into a Sovereign Wealth fund like Norway who are now in a far better position than us. 3) The stupidity of what happened during Covid and the loss of billions and the corruption of our government and its collusion with big pharma. 4) The sell out of our spineless ‘pupeticians’ and the ‘lamestream’ media to the industrial war complex and participating in disastrous wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya , Syria, and Ukraine costing us billions that resulted in mass immigration to Europe and the UK. Now we are playing the same game as lap dogs on behalf of depraved and deranged Zionists and war mongers both in the US, Israel & sadly even the UK (and parts of the EU too) to cause self destruction including internal conflicts at home and further carnage and genocides in Gaza, Lebanon, possibly Iran and elsewhere at the behest of a supremacist,immoral racist clique that ignore international rules and norms and that cannot be criticised or exposed by anyone. They can bug Boris’ loo, they can interfere in the politics of the UK and USA - they are the ‘elephant in the room’. Rant over.
As I follow geopolitics I left the UK 10 years ago when I saw the USA coup Ukraine in 2014, I knew it would go downhill in Europe and the West as we all jump off a cliff with the USA. The thing is the rest of the world outside the West is also seeing a massive influx of Western immigrants now who know what's coming. Even Russia is offering permanent residence after a 3 year visa working in Russia for Westerners. There is a whole world of opportunity now outside the West.
Thank you for sharing this video with us. I also watched your first video; what you say is so true. My friends and I often talk about how we had the very best times. I left school at 16 and went straight into a job. At 17 years old, we all had cars and jobs. Every weekend, we would fill them up with fuel and drive all over the country, visiting places. We owned our cars and had our own insurance because we had jobs. This was back in 1977, now, young people of today cannot even do this, and I think that is such a shame.
I left school in 1987 and walked straight into a well paid job that I absolutely loved. I look around now and there's no future or hope for anyone. There's no investment, everything in this country has always been done on the cheap, companies want the best of the best work force but aren't prepared to pay a proper wage/annual salary, there's practically zero Law and Order, the streets are filthy, illegals arriving by the droves, hyperinflation that will continue to rise, extremely high unemployment and no chance of ever getting on in life, a health care system that isn't fit for purpose, ridiculously high taxation and an education system that pushes certain narratives. The country is well and truly finished, all by design. It makes you want to weep when you reflect back to how things were to how they are now. RIP UK.
"They would rather provide financial assistance to those people coming to our country every day illegally" Western countries are falling apart and UK is leading the destruction of the West As an Italian I watch in disbelief how they treat you native British people in UK. At least here in Italy we have free speech, hookup culture and low quality immigrants are still not high and even with feminism pushed through social media we are still more traditional and we don't have middle Eastern and afro people all around. We love conservative british people, come here in Italy if you can. 🇮🇹 PS the weather and food is also amazing. But remember that Italian music can't compete with Oasis, Muse etc. haha
@@AncientKJ Yeah! It would be nice if a nice British community creates in Italy, as it was developed an Italian community in London in 90s / 2000. On average Italians are obsessed with british mainstream culture. For instance when DJ puts Oasis, Ed Sheeran or Coldplay remixes in disco they go completely crazy like for no other artists. And as you can see by yourself in "Rome Walking Tour" videos, you won't see a lot of Mordor-orcs here in Italy, but almost only Italian faces. You will probably feel home. the few british people I knew living here in Rome they love the weather overall and food.
This winter is going to be the worst mate, and it runs from mid Oct all the way to April time. Utterly depressing, but we’ll get through it. The only way out for me is earning remote money. That’s my no 1 aim this winter.

Leaving the UK Four years ago living in SE Asia apart from the obvious demographic changes, and being ripped off every way you turn, in the UK you soon realise how much of a controlled state the UK has become from over regulation, to constant suvallence, and being fined by the slight error or judgment life had become untenable for me Never fear change. it's not perfect here , I'm in control of my destiny and not being fleeced by the UK government If you can get out my advice do so whist you can
Lived in my house54 yrs in my 80s thought I would end my life here but it’s coming very close to me having to move as I can Barely manage to pay my bills now ,heating allowance gone,all other bills gone up ,and food prices have rocketed, I feel so sorry for people with children it must be a nightmare,to have to find money for everything.We need a miracle.Sad that people have to leave their own country to get a decent life.
@@SSupernova Europe. USA and Canada have issues too actually.

I will research more while I await my eu passport. I am lucky I can do that post brexit actually. Possible Austria or Switzerland. unlikely but perhaps slovakia. Looking that direction.

Which country are you talking about? There’s over Fifty countries constituting the U.S. I suggest you take a plane to Houston. Take the main road heading south out of town and you’ll come, to a huge very tall bridge. Look ahead and to the right and then ask yourself again if you think TEXAS is in Rapid decline?
Greatest thing about US is its sheer size, your quality of living can drastically change by moving to your neighouring state or two. I can honestly feel like a continental change when you move over 3 states away as culture, geography and economy differs. UK is a the size of North Carolina + maybe 1/2 of South Carolina. Given that it is essentially a city-state, that is academic because once you leave London, quality of living essentially becomes Mississippi level.
I’m 51 and have a house: we bought one when you could. I’m going to live it out and hopefully die before 60 or 65 at a push. But any young people that don’t have a house, get out now. Go to a different country and get a job, get a visa or green card. It’ll stick and before you know it you’ll be able to apply for residency. You actually may never be able to own property in the UK. It’s all tiny and sh1t anyway; the cars are all tiny and sh1t as well. Honestly, go.
Immigrants have been pushing housing and rents up while wages have stagnated meaning the average young worker has no chance of getting onto the housing market and the reason for wage stagflation is low skill, low productivity jobs on offer. Scotland used to have a booming high tech industry but that has long gone.
Having lived in Holland for 20 years I can recommend it as a good place to move to. For a start they understand english and have similar sense of humour
The option to earn remotely didn’t exist when i grew up in the 80s. One good thing about being younger in the UK now is the ability to earn online and research foreign travel online. If your younger and single bend your whole will to being able to work online in order to get out. Dont get me wrong Philippines government where im heading also screw its population who work all hours to earn little money, even its rich in natural resources and rare earth minerals. A global reckoning is coming.

Quality of life and standard of living in the UK is being deliberately reduced over time. There used to be a time where a single adult on a modest income early in their career could afford a house. Those days are long gone and in many parts of the country it takes two "high earners" just to be able to buy a flat. Ultimately, what the government wants is for people to work and pay as much tax as possible for as much of their life as possible. Things will continue to get more expensive, tax will increase further, retirement age will get higher, and more avenues to being able to become financially independent will be closed off and cracked down on. Add to that the wrecking job being done via mass uncontrolled immigration and the future definitely looks bleak here.
Left the U.K. at 41 years old. I do go home to visit as much as I can. Will I return?, at the moment I’m unsure. My skillset is much more financially appreciated on the other side of the world. The U.K is in a very strange place at the moment.
I hear you. Life is about so much more than money though. What about family and friends? Don’t you miss them? It would be so hard for me to be away from my homeland. I would feel like an outsider
@@iwacu123 believe me, being an expat where I currently am is not easy. We are viewed by some with utter disdain. However, unfortunately companies just do not want to pay a real wage in the U.K. There is a severe skills shortage worldwide yet somehow, my skills are worth 85% more than the U.K equivalent, and this is London wages not in the North West of England.
You forgot number 5! We are not supposed to complain or object to the dictatorship that calls itself our government. They expect us to just accept everything that they impose upon us otherwise we are branded "far right" and brought before the courts and maybe even sent to prison. Can you make another video explaining where you are hoping to move to please? Thanks in advance.
I‘m Scottish, left for Germany in 1997. Of course I still miss Scotland but not enough to return. Whenever I’ve tried to ask people when I’ve been on holiday in Scotland what life’s like and about the politics, they just said, „I’m not interested in politics“, since when were Scots not interested in politics? !!!! Glad to see some honest opinions from you:)
Get busy living or get busy dying, shawshank redemption fantastic movie. I'm 36 was born in 1988 and I'm currently living back home with my parents because the rents are way to expensive for me to afford on my own (YORK UK) i guess I'm lucky enough to still have parents to live with but of course it's not really ideal and I'd much rather be living independently but like you have mentioned its not really affordable in today's society we're definitely being squeezed it's a huge shame. I sincerely hope that everything will work out for you. Good luck
Nothing wrong with living with parents. Respect the elders and honour and care for them. More should do same and enjoy family life. I learned this from living in a houshould with 4 generations in Thailand.
Hey man. I had to move back in with parents due to rent going up and moving job, I didn’t mind at first but now I I really don’t like it, I want my own place like they did back in the day, just working as a postman and you could buy your own home, now you got to live like a flipping work slave just saving for what. It’s insane tbh, it’s possible though I saved up 20k in two years but gave it all away due to feeling too generous, I regret, but happened, I have to save up again. Well just commenting to say I know what it’s like as I am a 35 year old man, I should have my place many years ago.
@@HeartNDagger18we are in the same situation bro. At home, minimal savings and trying to work it out. We both know even if we get a decent job here it’s going to be hard to move out.

Left for Australia in 2019. Returned to the UK in 2021 for my sins. Since then all I have known has been one pay-cut after another, nasty assholes, employment tribunals and falling out with one dishonest and backstabbing employer after another. I am not sure it is me who is bringing this on as I know of others in my profession (medicine) who have experience similar issues with the same employers. I am looking at a return to Australia in the next few months or a move to the USA. Keeping all options on the table. The job situation is awful in the UK.
Excellent choice! I've been seven or eight times, absolutely adore Thailand, the people warm my heart, and it feels way more like home to me than the UK; like a country that has it's sanity and makes sense. Working on my skillset to try and get a remote job here in the UK to fulfill the LTR visa requirements.
You think Thailand is waiting for you? Do you know what it means to live in a place with 100% humidity and temperatures over 35 degrees most of the year? 2 weeks of vacation in Thailand is one thing; moving to Thailand is a totally different ball game.
@@eugenet7473 sure it means my energy levels explode through the roof, unlike the UK where we get a single week of sunlight and then darkness and rain for the rest of the year.
Africaans are white people, the descendants of Dutch, English and French and there certainly has not been an influx of Africaans in the numbers you are talking about.

Honestly if we’re your age I’d go to Russia. Loads of economic activity, lots of work, every other car is a brand new Mercedes. Wages are decent, houses and groceries are 20% of what they are here. Plus the women are absolutely gorgeous and the Russian gov is actively inviting skilled westerners who want to escape.
But it’s Russia. Totally alien language, culture, customs. No family or friends. Why would you want to live a life like an exiled outsider away from your home, where you belong?
Shouldn’t we be fighting to keep our country from going to ruin, instead of running away? Many Brits cannot leave, don’t we care about others anymore? We need more decent people involved in politics and leadership in the U.K. instead of just moaning and acting helpless. Why do we just let these Narcissistic Psychopaths lead us around like helpless sheep? Where is our backbone and grit? Our pride?
Financial education is what we need right now for more than 70% of the society in the country as very few are literate on the subject. Thanks to Stacey Macken, the woman that changed my financial life.
I know this woman you just mentioned. Stacey Macken is a portfolio manager and investment advisor. She gained recognition as the first female trader educator; a renowned investor she is. Stacey has demonstrated expertise in investment strategies and has been involved in managing portfolios and providing guidance to clients.
Honestly, I'm surprised that this mrs Stacey Macken is mentioned here, came across a testimony about her from one of the beneficiaries on the CNBC news, she seems to be doing extremely well .
She changed my life Financially I managed to grow a nest egg of around 120k to over a Million. I'm especially grateful to Stacey Macken, for her expertise and exposure to different areas of the market.
I agree with you.I was 35 when I finally educated myself and started taking steps. I went from $176,000 in debt with zero savings or retirement to now, 2 years later, fully debt-free and over $1000,000 net worth. I know that doesn't SOUND like a lot, but I'm incredibly proud of it. Now I'm fast-tracking my wealth building (investing $400,000 annually) and don't owe a dime to anyone. It's a good feeling!
Daryl, you've struck a chord with me here, I couldn't agree more about them wanting us dead before the state pension age, it's perfectly true! I'm not far off the pension age and I claim nothing currently because it's so dammed hard to do so, and the way they treat the elderly is utterly disgusting. However, they can keep criminals arriving by the millions is the laps of luxury, what a kick in the bollocks to English people.
As a young professional who has a couple years experience in the workplace, I feel like I’ve been sold the dream and conned. My student debt is huge and I can barely pay it off with the predatory interest rates. Although my degree is generally considered as a strong one with respect to earning prospects, my earnings still get absolutely melted and competition for jobs has been insane. Taxation is massive and the government takes a lot of money that I could do life changing things with - and it would be ok, if it wasn’t that all I see is degradation all around me. The rental market in London (and the wider nation) is outright criminal, I pay exorbitant amounts of money to live in a shithole - it’s beyond depressing. I have worked extremely hard and can’t see buying a house as ever possible, and with a lack of parental funding available, I probably won’t get one. I feel like this country has limited opportunity for anyone with ambition, and I can’t see a happy life staying here. I feel like I don’t even work for myself after the raid on my earnings, and the earnings don’t go far…
Yes, for all those saying it was tough as well in the 80s and 90s, kindly F off. It was NO WAY near as tough for young people as it is now. Education was free, with no tuition fees for first degrees, you also received a grant for living expenses and books if your parents were low earners. You could easily rent your own place and save up for a deposit. In 1992, the average wage of my colleagues in the Civil Service (entry level admin officers) was around £14,000 and all were able to afford mortgages, at the very least a 1/2 bed flat in Zone 3. Now with Brexit, the young don't have all the opportunities that came with being part of the EU. They have been thoughly shafted and have every right to feel angry.
It's refreshing to hear a Scottish person saying this because the perception in England is that everyone in scotland loves immigration and is a rabbid leftist. In England we are talking about all the things you are saying in this video daily, I completely agree, there is no saving the UK, it's a demographic time bomb and there is no way to recover from what successive government's have done to us, I wish you the best of luck genuinely and I wish I was in a position to leave. I will inherit maybe 400k one day and I think I'll go to northern Ireland, at least it's mostly homogeneous and they speak English....I'm not interested in the politics there I just want somewhere safe
Spot on again. The fact that it's erudite and articulate men like yourself who are seeing things for what they are, should be a wake-up-call to the fat controllers.

I got out but became unwell, now having a severe chronic illness. Because i could not continue to work and needed care i had to return to the uk. Too late for me now The only thing you need is health. If you have this. Everything is possible
The recipe for happiness is to live in a van, in France. No car taxes, lots of free places to park up for free. Some even with electricity lol. Great food, culture, et cetera.
Motorhome offers mobility and flexibility, but comes with higher depreciation and potentially higher operating costs over time. It may feel cramped for long-term living, especially with a family of 3 and remote work needs.
I don't know? I've lived abroad, it's maybe easier financially, but culturally I think I prefer the opportunities here... And also I only speak English... Lots of people leave only to return because they felt socially isolated... There's more to life than just money. What about family and friends? Those we know who can't leave?
We have some things in common Daryl. I also lived in America (for university) and have lived in Japan almost continuously since '99. The salaries haven't exactly skyrocketed here, since I came but consumer prices haven't skyrocketed either, so it balances out somewhat. I have lived in council flats in and around Yokohama since 2006, and paid an average of 300 quid a month rent, allowing me to save half my wages, and allowing me save up for a place in the UK that I paid cash for. I'm renting it out until I return, at social housing rate. Healthcare is great, as you previously said. Whatever my ailment (and I've had a few complicated ones), I can just walk in practically any clinic and sit in the waiting room on average half an hour and be seen and well taken care of for a typical price of about a tenner. Like you, I ike Britain a lot, but I am very glad I didn't work there for too long - even back in the 1990s it was crap. I worked the night shift in a bog roll factory in Rochdale for one pound eighty an hour. Like you, Greater Manchester has great tap water, being right by the pennines and peak district, but working there was soul destroying.
@@deborahcurtis1385 Cheers. The local MP put out a plea in the newspaper, and said there was four thousand people on the waiting list, so as I could be in Japan for years, I thought it'd be a bit lousy to leave it empty.

The food is great and I also love that you can go skiing and then have a hot spa in the same day in natural springs! Awesome! A lot of Australians are over there.

Good luck mate, I left for Germany when Blair was PM, it is a bit hit and miss, some very unfriendly people here but there are upsides, many things are better, healthcare is great etc. it's like being on holiday every day and if I want to buy a bicycle, I don't have to save or borrow to get one.
Is Germany really any better than the UK? Does better healthcare really make it worth the move? What about friends and family? I lived in France for 3 years and despite being fluent in the language, I always felt like a foreigner, that it wasn’t home and that I didn’t belong. It wasn’t home.
I moved to Germany in 2014 to live next to my only brother who came here in 1979 and stayed. I have a much better standard of living. I live in East Friesland in a tourist area 8 kms from the Sea. The nearest big town is Oldenburg.
whats the big deal with healthcare you are supposed to keep yourself healthy anyway so why do people go crazy about healthcare just keep yourself well & healthy and you dont need all that anyway.
I had thought about retiring to the UK when I retire but changed my mind after seeing that the UK is turning into a third-world country like the US. I"m now considering moving to Spain or Portugal.

Britain is not a rich country. The UN just reported that once the contribution from London is excluded then Britians per capita income is LOWER than Mississippi. The poorest state in America. We keep telling ourselves comforting lies about how wonderful life is in the West. I travel a great deal in both Europe and the Americas and I can tell you this.

London is a different country. I’m down there about 2 months a year. Stay in hotels. it’s mostly to do with art stuff. A lot of the clients for custom installations are there. It’s hard to describe what they’re doing compared to normal people. The prices are ruinous for everything. BUT you will ( if you are old enough ) remember what actual good food tastes like. Our whole food system has been so debased and adulterated in the U.K. I thought my appetite was failing. Nope it’s garbage food.
But it’s everything. It’s clean down there. Tons of shops, restaurants, clubs. Transport. Beautiful hotels and police everywhere in the Center of London. The one thing is of course, the people even in London Centre have changed colour a fair bit. I’m no racist but if you’re not careful you change the whole feel of a country if you let in too many people at once. That all I say on that. London has taken almost all the money & talent from the U.K. and sucked it in to itself. It gets most funding. Most investment and most events & tourism.
It needs a vast rebalancing. But what a place if you have money down there. I wish is moved in 1997 when a girlfriend wanted to go down & start an art collective. 😭 The flat we were thinking about buying for 86,000£ is now 1.3m 🫡🪦

'Down and out in Paris and London' and then '1984' and 'Brave New World'. The UK has a rich culture no question.
As a successful business owner who was paying 6 figure taxes each year, we have now moved the business protocols to adjust to pay as little tax as possible to not fund this government and their inability to keep promises and stop the boats. We no longer buy anything or do business with non natives.
Christ, "stop the boats" is the shiny scary thing on a stick held by the governments causing the problems. Only idiots see that as the main issue.
Exactly, never buy from non natives in the UK
You have made some excellent points. I can't blame anyone who wants to leave the UK right now.
I moved to Australia from the UK in 2010......It was the hardest 10 years of my working life. The TV programme wanted down under paints a rosy lovely weather narrative. In short it was more of a police state than you can imagine. I came back when the plandemic started as it was a 'no jab no job'. I gave up my house and job as well as the kids schools. I unlike millions did my research and knew what the agenda was. All what is happening is being done by design. Hard to digest for many but its the truth of it. A hunger games society awaits us. Travel whilst you can because the coming agenda will soon STOP all travel.......15 minute cities and a flying ban looms.....
Greatest of luck on your journey mate, im off too......
PS no conspiracy theorists were harmed due to not taking the poison........
Completely agree mate, I can’t believe people can’t see this and I’m one of the lucky ones who is mortgage free with savings. I’ve been contemplating going for a while but I can see the same agendas playing out through the different countries too, even Africa are implementing the biometrics. Give me a remote island anywhere 🙏
Do you think lib dems are clever?
Agreed me and my family and my missus who worked in the convid ward all opted out of that cult. We r off to Asia 2025 summer. UK is finished by design.
Good for you. I wonder how many have left Australia, New Zealand etc.. due to their tyrannical rules.
My husband was born and raised in the UK. In his 20s, he emigrated to New Zealand and lived there for a few years. Then emigrated to Australia. Lived there for 10 years or so. Turned out to be a police state, worse than the UK. In the end came back to Britain, back to his roots, to his friends and family. As they say, the grass is greener on the other side.
If you thought the 90’s were good, you should have been around in the 60’s,70’s and 80’s.
Fabulous times.
The funny thing is that the 90s were great for the social scene. Bloody awful working for abysmal wages and trying to keep a roof over your head though! Hence why I emigrated in the mid 90s! And stupidly returned in the 2000s....
Absolutely

Spot on again mate 👌 I just turned 34 , if I was 34 in the 1980s I would have had a 3 bed house for 25k on 14k salary and enjoying the good life , previous gens had lived the dream, were living a nightmare , its so unfair and I'm not proud to be British I can tell ya that
Yep and how much money your house will be worth now😅
@Obatala_Vibez spot on mate probs 250k-500k depending on area, boomers had it great and now got it even better with there over bloated valued properties , hence why alot of boomers sell up move abroad cos of the value boom they cashed in
Or they stay in there boomer houses and enjoy having security from that asset exploding in price
It sucks how unfair this country is and how easy previous generations had it
I don't blame you at all for leaving, my son is 30y and left for Dubai four years ago, he has a fantastic lifestyle, loves the UAE. I hope to be able to settle in Abu Dhabi when I retire 🤞 As you say this country has had it. It all goes back to the 90s when Tony Blair and Gordon Brown de-regulated, the "Big Bang" saw people that couldn't really afford it get 100% mortgages where previously they couldn't; debt levels escalated massively and they want to keep people in debt to profit from it. The dirty money swilling about the City had never been addressed, they won't address it. The big banks and financial institutions are quietly buying up land and housing so they have everyone even further over a barrel. Go somewhere that will appreciate you and have a great life!!

Privatisation is when the rot set in. Along with not charging tax for non-domiciles. It's truly madness...
@@deborahcurtis1385 Privatisation without competition is profiteering. The political class and their friends are draining this country dry.

To top it off the trains are always late, delayed, once no trains for whole week from Slough I almost got fired, after having to travel for 1hrs and 20mins each way, while leaving my car on my drive, to cycle for 10mins then get the train.

England is a small country , how is it possible to have so high population and want to import millions of immigrants? You don't have to be a genius to understand , that ordinary people will suffer from this overpopulation.
That is what is so frustrating about it, I've watched my town become jammed with immigrants for the past 20 years and everything is worse now. They are taking over entire areas and estates. They walk on the roads and i can sense how they feel like they are taking over. It makes me sick.
Because the illegal foreigners are happy to work for crap money. They don't whine and complain for clicks on the Internet like spoilt, entitled Americans. Which is the mentality of these people in England today. They refuse to put in the hours or effort to improve their lives and think they deserve £50k a year for stacking shelves at Tesco or driving a truck.
Boo hoo. I came from a poor family. Struggled to get by for 13 years working every hour I could and taking a second job when needed. Finally learnt a skill people needed and moved 200 miles from where I wanted to live for a decent paying job.
That's what it is to be English. To work and sacrifice to get what you want. Not cry on the Internet. Go live in Serbia earning less than £400 a month, not being able to afford food and heating out there then complain about England. There's a reason everyone wants to come here and it's because these faux English have gotten lazy and refuse to work.
By design.... "your" government doesn't work for you " the people "

Lloyds bank have partnered with Barrett to build homes. Lloyds bank last year said they wanted to be UKs biggest landlord. BlackRock bank in the states have shares in Lloyds banking group. Blackrock bank is the biggest landlord in the US and buying up property to rent out… go figure… at last someone has worked out the dots
This in turn will increase the number of backpackers and more homeless people. The US has a large pool of people out of the housing cycle.
Why the tight grip with so many that are homeless many of which intelligent?
When I came over in the 90s the UK was a best place to be honest but in the last 10years I've seen the country gone from bad to worse and seems to be heading out to a third world state, 🌎 where you're juggling life and work to make ends meet!!!!
U should go home
That was the plan all along. The Kalergi Plan.
Leaving next month for Asia, not coming back, can't wait! Go for it everyone. If it ever does get better here, it will take decades. There are so many great countries out there who will appreciate you if you go with the right attitude. You only get one life - don't let fear dictate it. Go somewhere for a month, get a feel for the place first. I felt at home after the first few days acclimatising. It can happen that fast.
I don’t agree. Grass is always greener. But none of these foreign countries will truly be home. I lived in France for three years and despite being fluent in the language I was never accepted as a French person (because I’m not!) There is always the sense of being an outsider, of not belonging, of being away from home. I realised that it was not “home” in the way it was for French people, that I was living away from home where my family was, where my close friends were.

I'm an Australian and have the right to a British passport, but never bothered with it. Visiting the UK, I was shocked at the pilfering and theft. Someone actually stole my (used) makeup from my bag on the Tube. I wasn't expecting this because why would someone want something so personal when it's been used? I had it in a tote an open top bag because here nobody would steal that.... It's beyond belief how desperate the place is.
I loved aspects of London but too many people were mean and calculating, bitter even. I had a visa for 4 years and I was back home in 4 months. The food was atrocious. A friend tried to warn me but I was wanting to see for myself. A recruiter from the firm that had me on their books, had a degree from Oxford and he had an arrogance that was out of all proportion to his skills. Clueless.
The best people- in London at least - were those who don't actually come from the UK. I didn't try the North nor Wales, it was just too grim. I helped a friend or should I say 'frenemy' adjust to Australia I did so much for her. So she said if you ever go to London I will help you. She shafted me. Along with her so called friend who was supposedly going to help me. That one said: "When I came to London nobody helped me, so I'm not helping you". Astonishing really. She was a very odd person.
Living there in the summer it was kind of ok but humid. However the shops, the trains were grimy everything you touch is sticky. Of course the museums are great and the mix of people fantastic, but slowly I can see the life being drained of the place. I watch documentaries about the poor and how retired people trying to manage in the winter, and it's heart-breaking. The place is riddled with crime starting with the rich. It's Dickens' times all over again.
Australia has issues, that is for sure. Three of the capital cities are in the top ten in the world's most expensive cities to buy or rent a home. People are in shock at how hard it is. Wages aren't as dismal as in the UK but jobs are very difficult to get. It's much harder to emigrate and there's a colossal housing shortage here. The same thing is happening with caravan sites, the battlers, everyone who doesn't have a paid off home is being squeezed.
However, in Japan you can at least buy a home very cheaply and do it up yourself. Transport is so good you will be able to commute easily. It would be too much of a culture shock for me, but it sounds perfect for you.
I recommend a 2 part video by Jacques Peretti entitled 'the Super Rich and Us'. Google it, it's not available in RUclips anymore. It's brilliant and it will give a full context for what you're saying. BBC Two. All the best for you.

You are all right, 8 years ago we came from Ukraine from Kyiv, it was my dream for my son to study here. He never finished his education because Covid happened. After Brexit everything changed, we really have to survive here. Prices are huge, the weather is terrible. But I am very grateful to this country for accepting and supporting my loved ones who are here during the war. But like you, we are thinking of moving because we simply will not survive.
Go to Holy Rus
It's easy to understand why the UK has declined so rapidly, as flows of immigrants, legal and illegal demand for resources increase, prices increase, housing health welfare are out of control, pressure then trickles down to ordinary people who feel the economic impact. The UK has 1.6 million economically inactive foreign born people costing the UK taxpayers billions, we are spending monies on foreign wars, sending aid to countries to help reduce migration, green energy costs, all these destructive policies sinking Britain, we are governed by inept political entities who look at the world through the prism of globalism, multinational corporations own the politicians they are dictating policy, they are ultimately responsible for this chaos
We pay far, far more to subsidise oil and gas as taxpayers than green energy, which is far cheaper for us end users.
@@andyskraga You've got it twisted mate. Oil is cheaper than "green" solar power and wind, especially when you consider that the prices fluctuate severely due to fluctuations in supply not matching the demand.
However, the oil companies (BP, Shell et al) artificially manipulate the pricing of refined products, including petrol and kerosene ("home heating oil"). When the government took 5p/L off the fuel tariff, the prices stayed put because the market is not free, but tightly controlled by means of market collusion.
So much BS in one comment. Education is important kids...

funds at regular intervals for smart investments.
You're correct. I think the smartest way to go is
to spread out your investments. By putting
your money into different asset classes like
bonds, real estate, and stocks from other
countries, you can lower the risk if one part of
the market goes bad.
That sounds like a good plan. In the past two
years, working closely with a financial market
specialist, I've built a six-figure diversified

Try 1997 fella, Globalism was a New Labour ideology.
Y'all put too much trust in the government. regardless of who is in power. Labour gave me free dental care and students loans. Conservatives found me a job after I had a mental breakdown. I will continue working and claiming what I'm entitled to and getting free things if I can. This is the example my parents showed me. They are pensioners now but they owned 4 properties and put two children through law school on the salary of a nurse and a teacher! Because they never stopped working, they claimed all their government entitlements and employee benefits and they got as much free and cheap stuff as they could!! They definitely did not go on a holiday overseas every year or eat out at restaurants or have regular takeaways!! They did do extra side jobs here and there but their main income was their full time job. I'm technically poor and disabled but I scrimp and save all year so that I can afford things and one holiday a year. I live in London and I go to as many free and cheap events as I possibly can. Because I wasn't raised on fast food or restaurant food I prefer to make it at home. I refuse to give energy companies all my money so I only heat one room and go to work, the swimming pool and the community centre where the heat, hot water and electricity are free for me to use!! Now if you have kids it's even harder but I do see some parents being extremely frugal.

Respect to you Daryl and good luck. I’d say/add 3/4 things to ponder over.
1) I agree with your sentiments regarding the sad state of the UK, but this has been a long time in the making and has been mainly due to 40 plus years of very poor short-term decision making of successive UK governments selling off state assets like council houses, water, gas, telecoms without any thought for the future or infrastructure or our resources or security needs.
2) The squandering of income from our North Sea oil and gas reserves rather than investing part into a Sovereign Wealth fund like Norway who are now in a far better position than us.
3) The stupidity of what happened during Covid and the loss of billions and the corruption of our government and its collusion with big pharma.
4) The sell out of our spineless ‘pupeticians’ and the ‘lamestream’ media to the industrial war complex and participating in disastrous wars in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya , Syria, and Ukraine costing us billions that resulted in mass immigration to Europe and the UK. Now we are playing the same game as lap dogs on behalf of depraved and deranged Zionists and war mongers both in the US, Israel & sadly even the UK (and parts of the EU too) to cause self destruction including internal conflicts at home and further carnage and genocides in Gaza, Lebanon, possibly Iran and elsewhere at the behest of a supremacist,immoral racist clique that ignore international rules and norms and that cannot be criticised or exposed by anyone.

As I follow geopolitics I left the UK 10 years ago when I saw the USA coup Ukraine in 2014, I knew it would go downhill in Europe and the West as we all jump off a cliff with the USA. The thing is the rest of the world outside the West is also seeing a massive influx of Western immigrants now who know what's coming. Even Russia is offering permanent residence after a 3 year visa working in Russia for Westerners. There is a whole world of opportunity now outside the West.
Thank you for sharing this video with us. I also watched your first video; what you say is so true. My friends and I often talk about how we had the very best times. I left school at 16 and went straight into a job. At 17 years old, we all had cars and jobs. Every weekend, we would fill them up with fuel and drive all over the country, visiting places. We owned our cars and had our own insurance because we had jobs. This was back in 1977, now, young people of today cannot even do this, and I think that is such a shame.
I left school in 1987 and walked straight into a well paid job that I absolutely loved. I look around now and there's no future or hope for anyone. There's no investment, everything in this country has always been done on the cheap, companies want the best of the best work force but aren't prepared to pay a proper wage/annual salary, there's practically zero Law and Order, the streets are filthy, illegals arriving by the droves, hyperinflation that will continue to rise, extremely high unemployment and no chance of ever getting on in life, a health care system that isn't fit for purpose, ridiculously high taxation and an education system that pushes certain narratives.

We love conservative british people, come here in Italy if you can. 🇮🇹

@@AncientKJ Yeah! It would be nice if a nice British community creates in Italy, as it was developed an Italian community in London in 90s / 2000.

Greatest thing about US is its sheer size, your quality of living can drastically change by moving to your neighouring state or two. I can honestly feel like a continental change when you move over 3 states away as culture, geography and economy differs. UK is a the size of North Carolina + maybe 1/2 of South Carolina. Given that it is essentially a city-state, that is academic because once you leave London, quality of living essentially becomes Mississippi level.
I advise the young to leave UK. Good luck mate I agree
I’m 51 and have a house: we bought one when you could. I’m going to live it out and hopefully die before 60 or 65 at a push. But any young people that don’t have a house, get out now. Go to a different country and get a job, get a visa or green card. It’ll stick and before you know it you’ll be able to apply for residency. You actually may never be able to own property in the UK. It’s all tiny and sh1t anyway; the cars are all tiny and sh1t as well. Honestly, go.

Quality of life and standard of living in the UK is being deliberately reduced over time. There used to be a time where a single adult on a modest income early in their career could afford a house. Those days are long gone and in many parts of the country it takes two "high earners" just to be able to buy a flat. Ultimately, what the government wants is for people to work and pay as much tax as possible for as much of their life as possible. Things will continue to get more expensive, tax will increase further, retirement age will get higher, and more avenues to being able to become financially independent will be closed off and cracked down on. Add to that the wrecking job being done via mass uncontrolled immigration and the future definitely looks bleak here.

Nothing wrong with living with parents. Respect the elders and honour and care for them. More should do same and enjoy family life. I learned this from living in a houshould with 4 generations in Thailand.
Hey man. I had to move back in with parents due to rent going up and moving job, I didn’t mind at first but now I I really don’t like it, I want my own place like they did back in the day, just working as a postman and you could buy your own home, now you got to live like a flipping work slave just saving for what.

I agree with you.I was 35 when I finally educated myself and started taking steps. I went from $176,000 in debt with zero savings or retirement to now, 2 years later, fully debt-free and over $1000,000 net worth. I know that doesn't SOUND like a lot, but I'm incredibly proud of it. Now I'm fast-tracking my wealth building (investing $400,000 annually) and don't owe a dime to anyone. It's a good feeling!
Daryl, you've struck a chord with me here, I couldn't agree more about them wanting us dead before the state pension age, it's perfectly true! I'm not far off the pension age and I claim nothing currently because it's so dammed hard to do so, and the way they treat the elderly is utterly disgusting.
However, they can keep criminals arriving by the millions is the laps of luxury, what a kick in the bollocks to English people.
As a young professional who has a couple years experience in the workplace, I feel like I’ve been sold the dream and conned.
My student debt is huge and I can barely pay it off with the predatory interest rates. Although my degree is generally considered as a strong one with respect to earning prospects, my earnings still get absolutely melted and competition for jobs has been insane.
Taxation is massive and the government takes a lot of money that I could do life changing things with - and it would be ok, if it wasn’t that all I see is degradation all around me.
The rental market in London (and the wider nation) is outright criminal, I pay exorbitant amounts of money to live in a shithole - it’s beyond depressing. I have worked extremely hard and can’t see buying a house as ever possible, and with a lack of parental funding available, I probably won’t get one.
I feel like this country has limited opportunity for anyone with ambition, and I can’t see a happy life staying here. I feel like I don’t even work for myself after the raid on my earnings, and the earnings don’t go far…
Yes, for all those saying it was tough as well in the 80s and 90s, kindly F off. It was NO WAY near as tough for young people as it is now. Education was free, with no tuition fees for first degrees, you also received a grant for living expenses and books if your parents were low earners.
You could easily rent your own place and save up for a deposit. In 1992, the average wage of my colleagues in the Civil Service (entry level admin officers) was around £14,000 and all were able to afford mortgages, at the very least a 1/2 bed flat in Zone 3.
Now with Brexit, the young don't have all the opportunities that came with being part of the EU.
They have been thoughly shafted and have every right to feel angry.
It's refreshing to hear a Scottish person saying this because the perception in England is that everyone in scotland loves immigration and is a rabbid leftist.

We have some things in common Daryl. I also lived in America (for university) and have lived in Japan almost continuously since '99. The salaries haven't exactly skyrocketed here, since I came but consumer prices haven't skyrocketed either, so it balances out somewhat. I have lived in council flats in and around Yokohama since 2006, and paid an average of 300 quid a month rent, allowing me to save half my wages, and allowing me save up for a place in the UK that I paid cash for. I'm renting it out until I return, at social housing rate. Healthcare is great, as you previously said. Whatever my ailment (and I've had a few complicated ones), I can just walk in practically any clinic and sit in the waiting room on average half an hour and be seen and well taken care of for a typical price of about a tenner. Like you, I ike Britain a lot, but I am very glad I didn't work there for too long - even back in the 1990s it was crap. I worked the night shift in a bog roll factory in Rochdale for one pound eighty an hour. Like you, Greater Manchester has great tap water, being right by the pennines and peak district, but working there was soul destroying.

Is Germany really any better than the UK? Does better healthcare really make it worth the move? What about friends and family? I lived in France for 3 years and despite being fluent in the language, I always felt like a foreigner, that it wasn’t home and that I didn’t belong. It wasn’t home.
