    No music, no intro, no outro, no stupid "hand to the camera", the humor, vocab, jabs, no fancy edits, just Straight. To. The. Point.... Every single video. Easily top 3 YT channel.

    Speaking for myself the people I watch are personable, humble and share my point of view. You fill all of these requirements. I'm at the point where I prefer youtube compared to most scripted television.

    Things I like about your channel: analytical mindset, interesting vocabulary, quick flip business model, selling menswear, awkward funny intros and moments, valuable content, you like to fish.

    After finding one of your Bolo videos a couple weeks ago you inspired me to go back to working for myself and using the knowledge of your Menswear Manifesto $5 is what i could afford at the time. It has helped me immensely. Falling down the rabbit hole of clothing thrifting has been an awesome ride so far and I'm jazzed every day so far.
    My next step after watching you and getting inspired by your informative and minimalist vibe is to start a RUclips or Tiktok as a middle-aged retail manager burnout digging for profits in the bins.
    Super Grateful for everything you do.

    I have a few resellers that I’m subscribed to. I stumbled across you and your page when those were done and I was left with other suggested videos. The majority of them are so boring I had to turn off after 5 minutes. Not you though. Some may consider you quirky, but I LOVE your humour, honesty, and off the wall comments. As far as the haters go... you’ll never be judged by someone who’s done more than you. They hate because they see what they could be doing, and need to bash you to “flex their nuts”... maybe my favorite is part of this all, lol. My question to you is are there videos/tools/practices you recommend for starting a channel very basically? I’m not afraid of putting myself out there. People will relate with you, or they don’t. But the people that do, do. I’m still a newbie. Only been reselling since January. I still don’t know what I’m doing. But I know there a lot of others out there like me that can relate. What holds me back is that I’m not very technologically skilled and feel like I don’t know where to start or how. Any advice is greatly appreciated 🙏🙏🙏 but congrats on your success. Don’t let the assholes get to you, keep doing you! I love it, and clearly, thousands of others do too!

    • @ThriftALife

      Thanks, appreciate it. Just start by filming yourself on your phone, maybe do a little bit of editing in a free program like iMovie. That's essentially what I do. I use a point and shoot camera to film on, use the built-in mic, and do minimal editing in final cut.

I don't know crap about fashion or clothes so I have been learning a lot from you. It is a Levi Jean Jacket I found on FB Marketplace. I don't know about the youtube creater thing though. LOL Let's not get crazy lol My goal is to try to get up to sourcing and listing 10 items a day, or 50-70 a week at least. I found you with the 20 brands video because it was a direct search I looked for. It was the exact info I was trying to find. Nice job.
