This really hits home bro.. i just lost my girlfriend of 7 years she died last night i'm currently grieving as this is something i've never experienced before emotionally ...but hearing your story of perservance and not giving up is really helping me right now enjoy the rest of your week bro
Bro, I'm sorry for your loss. I can't imagine how you feel but I'm glad this message was able to resonate with you if only to assist you through this loss. Bleessing bro.🙏
Man this is a powerful video!!!! I told you james no matter what content you put out it will be well received!!! Your sincerity and honesty is your powerful tool!!!
She isn't one in a million. She is a real wife. We don't leave because the steaks turned into hot dogs and beans. We started with hot dogs and we can finish with hot dogs. As long as we finish together. That is the problem with some of these folks. The relationship doesn't start until you start to struggle. It is that growth that builds the love and trust. My husband and I got our first house in a small city. It isn't in the greatest of neighborhoods. The house is a dump but it is our home. We purchased this house while waiting for the housing market to collapse. It is a dump but it is our dump. We slept in the kitchen on a matress. The house is an old wooden house so we had to close all the doors to conserve heat. When he lost his job. I was able to continue to keep up with the bills. He took the kids to travel to Texas to see his folks. We even planned that he took enough cash to get there and came back the next paycheck. Shit happens. Now, we both work very good jobs but we live in the same shitty house. Why? Cause the housing market sucks and we REFUSED to live in luxury at a high cost. So we are waiting for the next collapse to find a new home. You don't leave because the steak back to hot dogs. That isn't how a real serious relationship works. It is just like friendships. You don't stop being a friend. Because that friend can't treat you to dinner anymore. These people need to learn that. Trust and respect has left society. My husband and I have been together for almost 25 years. My husband and I would be together in a cardboard box. Because no matter where we go. We will be together. That is the real ride or die. Whatever the heck is going on these days. Need to stop. Thank you sis for holding your man down! You are amazing!
Any person that is willing to do take whatever job they can to support his family and himself and checks their ego at the door will get all my respect!!! Especially when you were making more than double that before. Much respect, bruh!
Your story is an example that you have "no"quit in you! God bless you and yours I've always said never give up and watch God make a way Giving praise not to the universe but Yeshua that created the universe. Lift up his name and watch the universe the lion of Judah has created open wide
Someone once said that behind every successful man, there's a smart woman. Shout-out to Norberis for sticking with Jay in good times, and bad times; honestly, that's how loyalty should be measured, with deeds, not words. Blessings ❤
Keep in mind he told a WHOLE story of what HE did for family and your comment is about his wife staying with him??? I'm sure I'm taking it wrong in that you are encouraging women to be mindful that finances and situations don't make a person.
I remember when my daughter and I moved in together. I had to sleep on the floor, until I was able to buy a mattress and later save up for a bed frame. I really appreciated and grateful for having a full bed to sleep on.
Most american women would've been on a skateboard out the door to another man's arms the second you fall on hard times. Seen it many times already, refuse to put myself in them shoes again
Great advice. He didn’t blame anyone else for his situation. He found solutions with the help of friends, family, and a whole lot of personal integrity.
I’m really glad you made this video, Fam. Because some people tend to think successful people on RUclips were successful all along. “They see the shine, but they don’t see the grind.” Also, maybe the most impressive thing I take away from your video, is that you and Norberis didn’t give up on each other. The marriage vows say, “…for richer or poorer…” for a reason. You two worked together, and had confidence in one another to make it to a better life. That’s what real love is all about. 🤜🏾💥🤛🏾💯
Let me say this to you brother. You have yourself a good good wife. Most women would have left you. Hold on to her, you are a very lucky man. Your wife is a real woman. I envy you my brother.
I am in the exact same scenario. I lost my work, and as a family, we lost everything. I had to return to the United States to survive. I have always had a good life; I have never been in a circumstance where you lose everything. But one thing was certain: I didn't want to be where I was since I wasn't improving; my thinking was already "leave this place". I know everything will be well; God will take great care of us. This video arrived at the perfect time in my life. I will not give up!
Jay this was very encouraging and as someone who’s in the process of moving to DR permanently I really appreciate you and your wife’s platform. If you can do it I can do it . Thanks brother !
@@desmondcharles Yesssiiir. I'm not special. It just take discipline and perseverance and a plan. We all can pull that out of our arsenal. Congrats on your upcoming move.

You guys are hustlers! Some couples would’ve broken up half-way through the journey. I’m glad you stuck it out. Be blessed with health, love, money and strength! ❤
Hey Jay, I should have waited till the end to comment. Man, respect for what you and your wife did to build. The two of you no matter what would have made it financially because you are a true team and hard working. You guys are awesome and this video is honest. You need more subs Jay, many people need to hear this. Well done to you and your wife, fighters, honest, committed and partners in the truest sense.
Hi Jay big respect to you and your family to put your hands up and share your hardship and coming through the other side💪🏻👏 you deserve success buddy I like honest people sometimes in this life we have too many people talking rubbish ,, May you continue to thrive and do well. Kind regards James from uk👍🏻🤝
I love videos like this. Just down to earth honesty sharing a struggle we all go through…all behind very mellow music. I root for Jay. Many people would be ashamed to admit some struggle or failure in life even though everyone goes through it. You have to be a trust fund kid to not have experienced it. I failed many times in my life but always learned to pick myself back up. As a friend once tried to encourage me when I was rock bottom…that at least you can’t drop any further. So I very much appreciate this story, something we can all learn from. Perseverance is a true talent and Jay has it.
This is virtually an instructional video on how hard people are working. The time from 2015-2020 of multiple jobs! And the ultimate evolution was looking inside and getting yourself in a change mindset AND the move to online was the big transition. Very honest, no frills, no hidden agenda story.
I totally agree. I watched this from A-Z. Very motivational even for me a 66 year old grandpaa who joined RUclips in Mid December 23 and just about to roll my sleeves NICH-UP and get my gum boots macky.
@@AphrooneRichardson they are rare nowadays. Back in the day Dominicans from the states would go to the country side (El Cibao) of the island to find themselves wives, but that no longer exist. Dominican culture / women have been heavily influenced by social media and the states. You need to look at the family and go from there.
Your video is very informative to people that are going through the same thing. I am 71 years old and have been married for 54 years and we have had ups and downs similar as you. The best advice you can give people is to not give up. If you believe in GOD he will make a way. We too came to the DR to visit and fell in love. We visited Santo Domingo and Punta Cana and decided we loved PC. So we moved here and stayed for 3 years and had to go back to the states because of family and lack of financial stability there. We also went to Florida to live for six years and get back on our feet. We moved back to Punta Cana last year and we love it. But we are retired now. Please continue to uplift people with your story because trust me there are a lot of people out there that needs that encouragement. It can be done. God Bless you and your family. I know you have a good woman by your side. Don’t mess it up.
I feel you brother! Sometimes people see you shining, but they don’t consider the journey it took for you to get there. A testament to what ever in life is worth it isn’t easy to achieve.👏🏽👏🏽
Jay, I think this is possibly your most powerful video to date. So inspirational and motivational. Great message brother. I really respect you and your wife's grind. Much continued SUCCESS!!
Great job , so many people are struggling with no end in sight… I think you are absolutely on point. When you focus on the negative aspects of your life you will stay down… It’s funny how god works, when you keep striving things will happen in your favor…. Life is a definite journey and you gotta keep pushing… The fact that you put family first makes all the difference… You two are a great team and god has blessed you and your family… Keep inspiring us…
Thank you for sharing your story! Very inspirational especially for most people going through hardship. This video came at the right time for me. Wishing you and Norberis continued success!!!
Wow! what a journey you all have had thus far. That’s why I never get jealous of anyone’s success because I never know all they been through to gain said success. Continued blessings to you and your family 🙏🏾
You have to fight to stay in the game. Always challenge yourself. I have been in this situation before. It makes you stronger for the next challenge. Thanks for sharing. You are a WINNER in many ways. Stay at that high Vibration.
Very inspiring story. I’m from Dominican Republic. My husband is from United States. I met him when I was 20th and I’m 49. I work three days a week 12 hours shift. I Make over 85K. I go to Dominican twice a year expecting someday I stay there.
Man thank you Ty Ty Ty .. your testimony is very inspiring. My brother of the struggle.. i personally know the Florida n dirty south period! You and your wife have giving me a push of needed assistance .. reassurance aspiring indeed ! DR again for the 4th time asap.. this time perhaps our paths will cross .. always keep it real Ty ty ty
I came across your videos yesterday and for some reason I lost like the video … today it came up again ! I’m so happy it came back up and I’m now watching it !… I’m a Dominican native
Great video!!! Very inspiring I am glad you and your wife never gave up. You are setting an example for your daughter. I just subbed to your channel. I hope you and your wife many more great moments and years in Dominican Republic 🇩🇴. Continue to thrive.
Wow, that's a story and a motivation story. Man, these are the stories people needed. People think people were born with a silver spoon. Man, this is a great story.
Having a partner like Norberis should NEVER be taken for granted! Most westernized women today, especially age 35 & younger, wouldn't do a third of what she did to help themselves get back on their feet. They would put 90% of the responsibility on the man. AND making plans at the same time to "upgrade" their partner situation. FACTS !!!
And what you have control of is not giving up. Trust me, countless times, my husband and I almost gave up. But, you have to keep fighting and moving forward.
I feel you bro… I worked for 7 trucking companies in less than a year before I started my own. I drove for free because I loved what I was doing, but I knew there was a better option for me as a combat veteran and college graduate. I tapped into my gift with being able to articulate and navigate the corporate world and the world of a truck driver. With this I made millions…. However, a million dollars didn’t save my marriage nor my home. I salute you on your accomplishments and your dedication to the success of your channel. I got the cigars and rum on deck whenever you’re ready to come out for a little r&r…. Til then, it’s peace./G\✌️
I love your story but even more the strength of your relationship with your wife to persevere and overcome loosing everything not many could overcome that. Love your content keep it coming.
Hi, Jay! Sorry you and wife had to go through all you went through, but look at you guys now. A strong couple and living how you both want to live. Cheers to you both. May God continue blessing you and family.
The last part starting at 16:00 is golden. I traveled to Colombia 🇨🇴 on vacation 2yrs ago and I couldn’t describe it but I knew I had to move there. I’m finally going to be able to move in January. What took me so long is I had to find a completely remote job. I had to endure a level of patience and perseverance unlike anything I had ever experienced in my entire life. I was also constantly thinking about the when. I finally had to live in the present while working on my goal but not think about the when.
Yes, thank you for sharing this. Thinking about the "when" only keeps you frustrated. Just work and it will happen when you least expect it. Congratulations on you upcoming move to Colombia.
I think your family's story shows that you all love each other dearly and that's beautiful. I don't know your education situation, but this is why education matters! There is no place that I can't use my science degree. I get calls from around the country, even Hawaii. I am very happy for you and your family. I wish you good health, well being and prosperity.
Don't Quit Edgar Albert Guest When things go wrong, as they sometimes will, when the road you're trudging seems all uphill, when the funds are low and the debts are high, and you want to smile but you have to sigh, when care is pressing you down a bit - rest if you must, but don't you quit. Life is queer with its twists and turns. As everyone of us sometimes learns. And many a fellow turns about when he might have won had he stuck it out. Don't give up though the pace seems slow - you may succeed with another blow. Often the goal is nearer than it seems to a faint and faltering man; Often the struggler has given up when he might have captured the victor's cup; and he learned too late when the night came down, how close he was to the golden crown. Success is failure turned inside out - the silver tint of the clouds of doubt, and when you never can tell how close you are, it may be near when it seems afar; So, stick to the fight when you're hardest hit - it's when things seem worst, you must not quit.
Just found your channel. This was a very inspiring message. I'm a 54 years old grandmother having to start over and was not sure how to start. This gives me the confidence to keep on keeping on. Thankyou.
Grandma, i am turning 66 this August. My RUclips Channel is just over 6 months old. You can start one and begin posting Shorts (1min videos) yo build your Subscriber base you figure out what your passion is to start making long form videos.
Boy, do I always appreciate you unfolding the steps. I have been through many, but going friend/family couch to couch. It is hour to hour. And if you miss a step, no one understands. The dumb people asked by creditors! "Do you have any family who could help?" Oh yeah I forgot them. Have you tried...? Why doesn't he...? Totally get it--a lot of us forever going through this, know what fantastic management skills this takes. Exhausting.
This was great. I can appreciate that both of you got out there and worked your a$$ off to get back in there. I grew up poor and know how hard it is to get out of that hole. "Teamwork Makes The Dream Work"...
I keep telling you, man, the more you talk, the more sense you make; I just can't figure out how you do it. Awesome video and an invaluable piece of advice to those who throw in the towel after getting the first punch in the face . It would've been an even better video if you had used the word GOD instead of the universe; but that's ok, I'll let it go for now, but don't get used to it 😅 I'm a Christian, and proud to say it boldly.😊
You meant “Jesus”. Every religion has a GOD. If make a comment, jokingly or not, write the correct information you are trying to convey. This is not a religion channel, and he doesn’t need to cater to one denomination.
@@elegal184You should speak for yourself, sir; how do you know what Jay needs or doesn't need? Let the man say it; on the other hand, I was in no way trying to convey my religious beliefs onto others; it was just an innocent comment, relax!
Very inspiring. These are the kind of stories I like listening to. Nowadays youtube is all about asking subscribers for money and the pity party content. People have just got so lazy and just want it all through other people’s pockets. All respect to you and your family for working hard through your problems. Amazing 💚
Love this video. I just got home today. July 9th 2024. I spent 15 days in Santo Domingo east in the Juan Bosch area with my wife on our first anniversary. Believe me when I tell you that that area is growing. I ended up meeting coach John’s wife at the Olé supermarket. That time meeting her out of the blue was unforgettable. She was so warm and welcoming. Shout out to the Dominican Route. I even got to speak to John while she was in line. Looking forward to meeting y’all too, next time. I want to start my RUclips channel because I have a lot of content already. Hit me for any suggestions.
Thanks bro, I appreciate it. Just let us know next time you're in the area. As far as youtube suggestions for me it's not as simple as saying do this or that. For me and my wife RUclips is a business so we approach it strategically. We don't record random videos. Not saying it's good or bad. Just not our approach. I suggest figuring the type of content you want to make and if its an audience for it. That's the first step.
Thank God you had Noberis. She was in the mud with you during bad times and put in serious work for the family. An American woman would never. That's it! I'm getting me a Dominican woman. Thanks bossman!
Preach brother. Preach. Excellent advice. Keep the excellent content coming. I just relocated to Cabarete on the north coast. I advise those looking to make the leap to listen closely to advice that you give in your videos.
I got even more respect for you and norberys now that i hear this story. Thanks for opening up to us brother. I am dominican but i live in orlando fl. Salute to you and norberys. God bless.🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴
To keep it short. My why is my family and the how real estate investing and online services. Of course it more detailed than that but those are the vehicles.
@@JayAbroadYo Jay, comment was general restating what you covered. Not intended for you. Thanks for sharing your story inspiring, glad you and your family came through.
I don't always agree with some on the info regarding DR, but I must say, this particular video touched and resonated with me. Happy to see that you guys got through the tough times, and are winning currently.....A woman that can stick with you through tough times is a keeper 🥂 Nuff respect to your resiliency.
This really hits home bro.. i just lost my girlfriend of 7 years she died last night i'm currently grieving as this is something i've never experienced before emotionally ...but hearing your story of perservance and not giving up is really helping me right now enjoy the rest of your week bro

Man this is a powerful video!!!! I told you james no matter what content you put out it will be well received!!! Your sincerity and honesty is your powerful tool!!!
Your wife is one in a million, she did not run away during the hard times.
Nope she didn't run...she stayed. I can't say I was surprised by it though.
@@JayAbroad She ain’t going nowhere.
@JayAbroad you can just say how YOU LOVE AND APPRECIATE HER for it....Start there.
She isn't one in a million. She is a real wife. We don't leave because the steaks turned into hot dogs and beans. We started with hot dogs and we can finish with hot dogs. As long as we finish together. That is the problem with some of these folks. The relationship doesn't start until you start to struggle. It is that growth that builds the love and trust.
My husband and I got our first house in a small city. It isn't in the greatest of neighborhoods. The house is a dump but it is our home. We purchased this house while waiting for the housing market to collapse. It is a dump but it is our dump. We slept in the kitchen on a matress. The house is an old wooden house so we had to close all the doors to conserve heat. When he lost his job. I was able to continue to keep up with the bills. He took the kids to travel to Texas to see his folks. We even planned that he took enough cash to get there and came back the next paycheck. Shit happens.
Now, we both work very good jobs but we live in the same shitty house. Why? Cause the housing market sucks and we REFUSED to live in luxury at a high cost. So we are waiting for the next collapse to find a new home.
You don't leave because the steak back to hot dogs. That isn't how a real serious relationship works. It is just like friendships. You don't stop being a friend. Because that friend can't treat you to dinner anymore. These people need to learn that. Trust and respect has left society. My husband and I have been together for almost 25 years. My husband and I would be together in a cardboard box. Because no matter where we go. We will be together.
That is the real ride or die. Whatever the heck is going on these days. Need to stop.
Thank you sis for holding your man down! You are amazing!
Stop choosing insta baddies🙄.
Most women stay during rough times.
The moral of the story is: find yourself a good spouse, fight hard and smart in life; never give up; and consequently you will surely lack nothing.
Definitely agree, what a pleasure to have someone on your side that will be there come rain or shine.
A GOOD SPOUSE IT DEFINITELY A MUST
Keep a savings as well and make sure you have some skills to fall back on that can pay your bills if you want to be a business owner.
It's hard enough to find a good girlfriend let alone a good wife.

We visited Santo Domingo and Punta Cana and decided we loved PC. So we moved here and stayed for 3 years and had to go back to the states because of family and lack of financial stability there. We also went to Florida to live for six years and get back on our feet. We moved back to Punta Cana last year and we love it. But we are retired now. Please continue to uplift people with your story because trust me there are a lot of people out there that needs that encouragement. It can be done. God Bless you and your family. I know you have a good woman by your side. Don’t mess it up.
Thank you, Beverly. I appreciate you sharing your story and the feedback 😊
Yes indeed, she is a woman of Norble Character, Proverbs 31:10-End.
I feel you brother! Sometimes people see you shining, but they don’t consider the journey it took for you to get there.
A testament to what ever in life is worth it isn’t easy to achieve.👏🏽👏🏽
Facts!
Deep message bro! Wifey a real one for sticking by your side even though you were down for so long! Down but neva out
Thanks fam. Preciate that🙌🏾
Jay, I think this is possibly your most powerful video to date. So inspirational and motivational. Great message brother. I really respect you and your wife's grind. Much continued SUCCESS!!
I appreciate that! Thank you.
Great job , so many people are struggling with no end in sight… I think you are absolutely on point. When you focus on the negative aspects of your life you will stay down… It’s funny how god works, when you keep striving things will happen in your favor…. Life is a definite journey and you gotta keep pushing… The fact that you put family first makes all the difference… You two are a great team and god has blessed you and your family… Keep inspiring us…
Yes! Thank you! Really appreciate it 🙏🏾
Thanks for Sharing Brother I needed to hear that 🙏
You're welcome, brother🙌🏾
Thank you for sharing your story! Very inspirational especially for most people going through hardship. This video came at the right time for me. Wishing you and Norberis continued success!!!
You are so welcome!
Wow! what a journey you all have had thus far. That’s why I never get jealous of anyone’s success because I never know all they been through to gain said success. Continued blessings to you and your family 🙏🏾
Same here. You never know what someone's story is. Many have stories much worse.
Algorithm sent me here (or maybe the universe) - subscribed - great video. Straight honest talk that resonates thank you and keep rising 🎉🙌🏾
Lol...glad it brought here. Thanks for listening.
Very inspirational! First time on your channel loved it so far
Awesome! Thank you!
You have to fight to stay in the game. Always challenge yourself. I have been in this situation before. It makes you stronger for the next challenge. Thanks for sharing. You are a WINNER in many ways. Stay at that high Vibration.
Yes! Thank you! I appreciate that 🙏🏾
Very inspiring story. I’m from Dominican Republic. My husband is from United States. I met him when I was 20th and I’m 49. I work three days a week 12 hours shift. I Make over 85K. I go to Dominican twice a year expecting someday I stay there.
That's great, everyone has a story. Thanks for sharing your.
Of all your videos, this one is the best. You and your wife are fighters.
Thanks 👍
Alot of relationships crumble when adversity takes a toll but my mother use to say behind every strong mam is a strong woman.
All this info is very humbling, ppl gotta hear the truth, it ain't all about palm trees and presidentes
you've got a real keeper in your wife, most partners these days would bail if they ever found themselves in the situation you two went through.
💪💪💪
WoW!! What a inspirational video😊 Thanks for being able to be so open and share vulnerably about your life. Truly admirable.
Thanks🙌
Thank for sharing your struggle. I could imagine how tough it was.
It was more tough mentally than it was physically. Because our minds can tend to play tricks on us if we let it.
Man God Bless you. You NEVER GAVE UP! God is good!
Yessiiirr, he is🙏🏾
Man thank you Ty Ty Ty .. your testimony is very inspiring. My brother of the struggle.. i personally know the Florida n dirty south period! You and your wife have giving me a push of needed assistance .. reassurance aspiring indeed ! DR again for the 4th time asap.. this time perhaps our paths will cross .. always keep it real Ty ty ty
Yessiiir...I appreciate that. If you get to Santo Domingo just message me on IG at @iamjayabroad
Everyone hits a low point in life. When we're at our lowest point, we are open to a higher change 💯
🙌🏾💯
I came across your videos yesterday and for some reason I lost like the video … today it came up again ! I’m so happy it came back up and I’m now watching it !… I’m a Dominican native
Thank you for watching 🙏🏾
Great video!!! Very inspiring I am glad you and your wife never gave up. You are setting an example for your daughter. I just subbed to your channel. I hope you and your wife many more great moments and years in Dominican Republic 🇩🇴. Continue to thrive.
Thank you so much! It's appreciated.
Wow, that's a story and a motivation story. Man, these are the stories people needed. People think people were born with a silver spoon. Man, this is a great story.
Thanks for listening brother. I almost didn't record it😅. But I said nah people need to hear it.
you my brother is definitely an inspiration. Your transparency is through the roof. God bless you and your family abundance from this day forward. 🙏
I appreciate that. Thank you🙌🏾
Having a partner like Norberis should NEVER be taken for granted! Most westernized women today, especially age 35 & younger, wouldn't do a third of what she did to help themselves get back on their feet. They would put 90% of the responsibility on the man. AND making plans at the same time to "upgrade" their partner situation. FACTS !!!
Facts
I appreciate it bro. She definitely was in the mud with me. Thanks.
Facts
. . . it's shameful!
And what you have control of is not giving up. Trust me, countless times, my husband and I almost gave up. But, you have to keep fighting and moving forward.
Definitely agree 👍🏾
So glad you did what you had to do to get out that situation keep that mentality. Such ❤an inspiration you guys are
I feel you bro… I worked for 7 trucking companies in less than a year before I started my own. I drove for free because I loved what I was doing, but I knew there was a better option for me as a combat veteran and college graduate. I tapped into my gift with being able to articulate and navigate the corporate world and the world of a truck driver. With this I made millions…. However, a million dollars didn’t save my marriage nor my home. I salute you on your accomplishments and your dedication to the success of your channel. I got the cigars and rum on deck whenever you’re ready to come out for a little r&r…. Til then, it’s peace./G\✌️
We all have a story, bro. And it all comes down to if one has the character and perseverance to overcome the setbacks. Thanks for sharing yours.
This is a great video...I have been there and worked and worked and worked...I have not stopped yet. It is the struggle that makes you successful.
Very true 👍🏾
I love your story but even more the strength of your relationship with your wife to persevere and overcome loosing everything not many could overcome that. Love your content keep it coming.
Yes, thank you for listening 🙏🏾
Thanks for sharing your story! Stop worrying'...great message!
That was a moving story and respect to You and Wifey for getting out the mud TOGETHER. What is missing with most couples today 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Thank you🙏🏾
@@JayAbroad No thank you , its good to see pure American/ Dominican love that is not corrupted 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Hi, Jay! Sorry you and wife had to go through all you went through, but look at you guys now. A strong couple and living how you both want to live. Cheers to you both. May God continue blessing you and family.
Thank you so much! We appreciate it 🙏🏾
@@JayAbroad, welcome!
Thank you for sharing your ups and downs.
My pleasure!
The last part starting at 16:00 is golden. I traveled to Colombia 🇨🇴 on vacation 2yrs ago and I couldn’t describe it but I knew I had to move there. I’m finally going to be able to move in January. What took me so long is I had to find a completely remote job. I had to endure a level of patience and perseverance unlike anything I had ever experienced in my entire life. I was also constantly thinking about the when. I finally had to live in the present while working on my goal but not think about the when.
Yes, thank you for sharing this. Thinking about the "when" only keeps you frustrated. Just work and it will happen when you least expect it. Congratulations on you upcoming move to Colombia.
Praise the Lord! May GOD continue to bless you both!
Thank you!
I think your family's story shows that you all love each other dearly and that's beautiful.
I don't know your education situation, but this is why education matters! There is no place that I can't use my science degree. I get calls from around the country, even Hawaii.
I am very happy for you and your family. I wish you good health, well being and prosperity.
Thank you. I appreciate you sharing your feedback.
You can let the hard times make you or let them break you. Hard work & effort does pay off, best to you & your family for continuing success!
I appreciate that
Thank you for sharing your testimony. 🙏💯
You are welcome, bro!
Salute my Brother nothing but respect to the Top King..🙏🏾🙏🏾
I appreciate that💪
Wow bro this is uplifting!
Thanks for listening, I appreciate it.
I appreciate you sharing this story. It lets us all know that you can always make it if you don’t give up.
Perfect advice and similar story here. I’ve lived in the DR for a year. Your channels have always benefitted me in the process. Thank you both.
You are welcome, brother. Thanks for supporting both channels 🙏🏾
Wow! Your story was so inspirational.....For real!....just subscribed!😊
Thank you, I appreciate it.
Never give up!
Never....💪🏾
Thanks for sharing bro! Yup, I have been down that road before. You have to keep picking yourself up. Very interesting story. 👊🏽
Yessiiirr no doubt 💪🏾
You both were partners in the ways that count, through the good and bad times ❤
Yes🙌🏾
You do your best but i foot in front another all you’re star 🌟 will align 🙏
Don't Quit
Edgar Albert Guest
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
when the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
when the funds are low and the debts are high,
and you want to smile but you have to sigh,
when care is pressing you down a bit - rest if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns.
As everyone of us sometimes learns.
And many a fellow turns about when he might have won had he stuck it out.
Don't give up though the pace seems slow - you may succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is nearer than it seems to a faint and faltering man;
Often the struggler has given up when he might have captured the victor's cup;
and he learned too late when the night came down,
how close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out - the silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
and when you never can tell how close you are,
it may be near when it seems afar;
So, stick to the fight when you're hardest hit - it's when things seem worst, you must not quit.
💯🙏
Just found your channel. This was a very inspiring message. I'm a 54 years old grandmother having to start over and was not sure how to start. This gives me the confidence to keep on keeping on. Thankyou.
You're welcome. I pray everything works out. Starting over can be tough.
Grandma, i am turning 66 this August. My RUclips Channel is just over 6 months old. You can start one and begin posting Shorts (1min videos) yo build your Subscriber base you figure out what your passion is to start making long form videos.
@@Holywood_Entertainments Thanks for the encouragement.
Much respect on being a hardworking man for your family, you don't see that today. keep moving forward excel in everything you do.
I appreciate that brother.
Very inspirational story. Thank you for the video. 👍
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it!
Boy, do I always appreciate you unfolding the steps. I have been through many, but going friend/family couch to couch.
It is hour to hour. And if you miss a step, no one understands. The dumb people asked by creditors!
"Do you have any family who could help?" Oh yeah I forgot them.
Have you tried...?
Why doesn't he...?
Totally get it--a lot of us forever going through this, know what fantastic management skills this takes.
Exhausting.
It really is. Thanks for sharing 👍🏾
This was great. I can appreciate that both of you got out there and worked your a$$ off to get back in there. I grew up poor and know how hard it is to get out of that hole. "Teamwork Makes The Dream Work"...
Absolutely 💯
I keep telling you, man, the more you talk, the more sense you make; I just can't figure out how you do it. Awesome video and an invaluable piece of advice to those who throw in the towel after getting the first punch in the face . It would've been an even better video if you had used the word GOD instead of the universe; but that's ok, I'll let it go for now, but don't get used to it 😅 I'm a Christian, and proud to say it boldly.😊
You meant “Jesus”. Every religion has a GOD. If make a comment, jokingly or not, write the correct information you are trying to convey. This is not a religion channel, and he doesn’t need to cater to one denomination.
@@elegal184You should speak for yourself, sir; how do you know what Jay needs or doesn't need? Let the man say it; on the other hand, I was in no way trying to convey my religious beliefs onto others; it was just an innocent comment, relax!
UNIVERSE BLESS! 🫡 🙏🏽 ✨
Amen, to that!
@@luisabramson4957I don’t think so. Now it’s innocent since you got checked. 🤦🏾♂️. Fake apostle
"You're going to start a RUclips channel." Lol... salute, Brotha.
Lol 😅
I appreciate how candid you are. So great to see what you all have accomplished. You served as an inspiration for our move 2 years ago.
I'm assuming you watched my wife's channel also as I've only had mine for 5 months. Needless to say we appreciate and congratulations on your move.
@@JayAbroad Yes we have had consultation with her and ran into you guys in Santo Domingo about 6 months into our move. We appreciate the guidance.
@@l.p.c7158 You're more than welcome. Hope you are enjoying yourselves here.
I love your story. Thanks for sharing and being honest. We all have our struggles. The key is to stay together as family and push through ❤️
You're welcome. Thanks for listening...
Intention is everything.
💯
This is inspiring
Yessiiirr 💪🏾 💪🏾 💪🏾...thanks
Very inspiring. These are the kind of stories I like listening to. Nowadays youtube is all about asking subscribers for money and the pity party content. People have just got so lazy and just want it all through other people’s pockets.
All respect to you and your family for working hard through your problems. Amazing 💚
Thank you, much appreciated 🙌🏾
Love this video. I just got home today. July 9th 2024. I spent 15 days in Santo Domingo east in the Juan Bosch area with my wife on our first anniversary. Believe me when I tell you that that area is growing. I ended up meeting coach John’s wife at the Olé supermarket. That time meeting her out of the blue was unforgettable. She was so warm and welcoming. Shout out to the Dominican Route. I even got to speak to John while she was in line. Looking forward to meeting y’all too, next time. I want to start my RUclips channel because I have a lot of content already. Hit me for any suggestions.
Thanks bro, I appreciate it. Just let us know next time you're in the area. As far as youtube suggestions for me it's not as simple as saying do this or that. For me and my wife RUclips is a business so we approach it strategically. We don't record random videos. Not saying it's good or bad. Just not our approach. I suggest figuring the type of content you want to make and if its an audience for it. That's the first step.
@@JayAbroad claro! Lol
@@JayAbroad you always on point
Thank God you had Noberis. She was in the mud with you during bad times and put in serious work for the family. An American woman would never. That's it! I'm getting me a Dominican woman. Thanks bossman!
lol. good times
Lol...Yessiiir. You're welcome bro.
Preach brother. Preach. Excellent advice. Keep the excellent content coming. I just relocated to Cabarete on the north coast. I advise those looking to make the leap to listen closely to advice that you give in your videos.
💯 congratulations on your move to Cabarete.
I got even more respect for you and norberys now that i hear this story. Thanks for opening up to us brother. I am dominican but i live in orlando fl. Salute to you and norberys. God bless.🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴🇩🇴
Thanks fam! I appreciate you listening.
Don't know when keep believing and working. What's your why and how?
To keep it short. My why is my family and the how real estate investing and online services. Of course it more detailed than that but those are the vehicles.
@@JayAbroadYo Jay, comment was general restating what you covered. Not intended for you. Thanks for sharing your story inspiring, glad you and your family came through.
“The last thing you want to be is BROKE in a foreign country!” I heard that!!
I don't always agree with some on the info regarding DR, but I must say, this particular video touched and resonated with me. Happy to see that you guys got through the tough times, and are winning currently.....A woman that can stick with you through tough times is a keeper 🥂 Nuff respect to your resiliency.
I appreciate that💪
Man much respect !!! Continued blessings to you and your beautiful family
I appreciate that brother.
