RUclips Premium is by far one of the more practical subscription models, and Thats coming from me thats a linux and youtube revanced user. Its tiresome to be in a constant battle of dealing with Adblock services to fight RUclips, only to realize the one adblock thats 100% effective is their premium subscription. Its weird how people take pride in using Adblock, but it creates a self-defeating cycle. Here’s the thought process: RUclips wants revenue, but doesn’t want to rely on Advertisers for money, so they instead introduce a premium service which skips the middleman Ad companies, and the money goes directly to them instead. When people start blocking Ads, RUclips needs a way to compensate revenue lost and begins ramping up Ads to compensate the difference. Had there been more premium users, RUclips would rely less on Ads since more money is coming from the subscribers, and since the subscription blocks Ads, RUclips relies less on Ad companies for revenue. Fighting youtube with too much Ads just forces them to put on more Ads.
@@DaveWake Premium is best chosen when you go for a distributed format. I’m specifically referring to the family plan. In face value the family plan is up to 6 accounts, and in total the subscription is $24/month. Divide that by 6 people and thats $8.00/month. What makes the family plan special is that the accounts added to the family have zero restrictions, meaning you can literally add anyone to the family plan. Unlike Spotify, you do not need to share the same home address. My setup has been like that among my college friends for 10 years now, and we live in different parts of the country.
My electric tea kettle has been used several times daily since 1991 and is still working beautifully. Know how to unplug it from the wall, pop the lid off to fully dry it out immediately after use and durability skyrockets. It was spendy at the time, but that Russell Hobbs has more than paid for itself via durability.
I’ve got a heated clothes horse with a smart plug so I can control how long it stays on for. It dries clothes really fast and is way cheaper to use than a dryer - worth the extra over a standard clothes horse!
As someone who has been trying to simplify their diet but keep it varied and balanced for health, I'd love to see a diet and healthy eating/cooking video from yourself.
Living in Germany I do not understand the waterfilter, we drink straight from the tab since tab water in Germany has to hold up to even stricter standards then bottled water.
adding an air purifier to my Christmas list.... such a great list! I also agree with the idea of keeping a music subscription as a worth it purchase because of the sheer accessibility. i used to pride myself on having a big CD collection, but now i look at it as clutter because i only really rotate around 6 CDs because they're either special to me or not even accessible on music streaming platforms. Love your channel! keep going, mane!
If you use your credit card and pay it off in full every month, you’ll get points you can spend for free travel/etc. if you’re gonna spend anyway might as well get as much as you can out of it.
My best friend and I love our electric kettles and use them several times a day. I have extremely limited counter space. My electric kettle and microwave (only place I could put it) are the only devices on the countertop. I would add for kitchen items worth investing in are a slow cooker, a rice cooker, and a magnetic knife rack.
Totally agree with electrical kettle (2 decades in using traditional one) and YT premium, but for drying rack, I personally think it depends, we tried both dryer and rack, when there is more then 4 ppl in a family, rack just do not work for us 😂
Not going to lie, I clicked on this video a bit skeptical, thinking it would promote mindless consumerism in the pursuit of aesthetics over practicality, but some of these items are a bit unexpected and pretty decent. Thanks
In a society where overconsumption is the norm... being truly "normal" is seen as underconsumption 😂 I'm Murican myself... I see it first hand. Teaching myself better ways
I finally have Spotify premium and it’s changed a lot in my life since now I can always listen to music which I really enjoy doing. I spend less time aimlessly on RUclips or doing other things because I can get all the music I want whenever I want. Still not sure if I should also get RUclips Premium since there’s a lot of music here that I do like and I love not having ads here, but I’ll figure that out in the future. Also for those on the fence, the $14 electric kettle I got from target has been a game changer for a few years. I cook a lot more at home because a lot of those meals and drinks that needed hot water this kettle expedites the time. I find myself making more breakfast and tea since it’s fast and easy to use. Definitely invest in one, doesn’t need to be expensive either.
I agree RUclips Premium is worth it. I’d rather lose all my subscriptions than lose access to RUclips Premium. I hadn’t considered RUclips music replacing Spotify either, but it’s an interesting idea.
Re: Work, as a writer of emails and documentation I decided to begin paying for Grammarly to save time editing. It’s not perfect but always catches errors that Word ignores or misses. Still pains me that I feel I need it. 😂
I make it my intention to get things or experiences I'm passionate about, healthy for me, or genuinely need. My hiking gear, bike, Espresso (from scratch) machine, a quality mattress, iPhone, Apple Music (I couldn't stand Spotify; too busy hyperactive), and, as other Aussies have said, a kettle clothes dryer are normal! I have allergies, so you have got me wondering about an air purifier for my room at night, but would it work much with the window wide open.
I'm a Brit, nodding my head, as someone that frequently uses his electric kettle. I couldn't imagine another way. We call clothes dryers a 'clothes horse' where I grew up (County Durham).
Hey Nick! Greetings from my very volcanic active country righ now! LoL i totally agree about the kettle i´m a tea drinker so i love mine. And i have a drying rack it´s very common in Iceland and we europeans hang our chlothes inside and outside. Have a nice week
I saw there have been a few eruptions here!! Yes I remember seeing the drying racks everywhere. Absolutely love Iceland 🇮🇸. I will need to tell the story one day about our car getting stuck and a farmer pulled us out with his tractor near Höfn
Basketball is awesome. I actually just started playing again and am really enjoying it. Although now I am buying a bunch of basketball shoes now for indoor and outdoor 😅
@@spotifyloverpk i'd rather invest the money in my stock market account tbh also also yeah, I'm poor because the salaries in Eastern Europe are shit, but the prices of almost everything are like in the US...go figure
Hello Nick, i recently dicovered your channel and i can say your videos are most calm, relaxing and helpful to wacth! PS: What platform do you edit your video on?
4:30 I'm so sorry but this is just not it. There are so many browsers out there that automatically remove ads from youtube and even a whole add on the phone called revanced. Music too, we can literally download mp3 files if we really like it, it's very little effort for long term enjoyability (idk if thats a word but you get it) I dont mean to come off as rude but its just my opinion, great video and its always a pleasure to watch.
Damn, now I'm considering removing Spotify now. Please do make a vid about cooking and diets, my Mom has been pestering about eating better but I'm constantly broke
I am a student and I like cooking and listening to a lot of music from different parts of the world so --RUclips Premium is the best purchase for me I get to see lectures, many recipes and many creators in music industry at one place and background play is the best thing ever --I also bought a book stand and a laptop stand along with a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse which made my studies quite easier -- I buy good quality knives and peeler now I enjoy cooking even more

RUclips premium is the best thing I payed for this year, it is my main form of content consumption so having no ads is perfect.
Exactly!
Premium is great. If you don’t have an addiction to it.
I disagree. FireFox + uBlock Origin + SponsorBlock = RUclips Premium without paying.

I find it crazy that Americans don't normally use an electric kettle!
We like fire. Lol!
What do they use?
Or have a need for water filter.
@@sparky9839normally a regular kettle that you heat up on the stove

Unfortunately not the case in the US. Most places I went to in Europe the water quality was far better than back home for me
Love RUclips premium it's so worth it for me!
I actually got rid of my RUclips Premium because the ads make it more annoying to use so I tend to use it less 😂
I just found out about minimalism because of your channel about a month ago and plan to stick with it. Thank you for changing my life! :)
Thank YOU
BREAD-MAKER is a great item to have. I love mine. Been making awesome bread for over 2 years. Easily have saved over $100 so far.
I hang my clothes on the hanger to dry it’s easier to hang in wardrobe afterwards also
I use me electric kettle 2 times each day. I love drinking my green tea morning and night.
I have most of the things, and now I think that these little purchases give a lot of help in daily busy life, still saving up for a bike and travel
RUclips entertainment and education when needing to do home repairs etc, such good value 👍🏻
Same here!!
adding an air purifier to my Christmas list.... such a great list!

This is lowkey one of the best channels on RUclips
thank you!!
As a heavy RUclips user. I totally agree that RUclips premium is a game changer, it made content watching much more enjoyable!
Totally agree!
@@NicholasGarofola and thanks for the reminder of the RUclips music service! I totally missed that, now I can unsubscribe my Spotify 😆
@@CindyRiesling yes take advantage of it!! Get your moneys worth 😄
I have subscribed to youtube for 5 years, its my only entertainment. Love it.
If you use your credit card and pay it off in full every month, you’ll get points you can spend for free travel/etc. if you’re gonna spend anyway might as well get as much as you can out of it.
Avoid bank interest too

That knife rack is a great Idea
That thing about smart glasses for Amazon drivers is crazy! Very dystopic as you said
Not sure if I like it 😂
You are putting more microplastics in your body with that plastic water filter. Try Aarke, it’s made out of stainless steel and glass.
Hello Nicholas, i'm 12 and this video really motivated me and really helped me. Thank you very much
Hey thanks!
Love the necessary items.
Watching an ad pop up after the RUclips premium chapter end is the epitome of destiny
Thank you for sharing your video
For the air purifier why not use a box fan with a furnace filter it is cheaper.
Thanks for the video,and I am waiting for the cooking video 👍🏻
Totally agree with electrical kettle (2 decades in using traditional one) and YT premium, but for drying rack, I personally think it depends, we tried both dryer and rack, when there is more then 4 ppl in a family, rack just do not work for us 😂
I've had youtube premium for several years, I couldn't go without it now!
I don't know if I can go back
I honestly don't think I've been into a house where they don't have a kettle. I couldn't imagine not having one.
Looove the floor lamp. It’s from Amazon? Great video
I started using a kettle that turns itself off after I almost boiled a pan dry on the stove by walking away and forgetting it was on!
4:39 that was Daniel Day Lewis level of acting 👌🏻👏🏻
Would that long neck on your kettle be hard to clean and breed mold?
RUclips premium is *the best* $20 I spend every month.
It's interesting, almost all of points of the list are very basic for us (not in the US). As well as your home slippers. :)
That's true!
As an American I love my electric kettle. I can hoard tea and ramen upstairs. Lol. 🍜 🍵
A few months ago! Got a Paperlike for drawing on iPad
Not going to lie, I clicked on this video a bit skeptical, thinking it would promote mindless consumerism in the pursuit of aesthetics over practicality, but some of these items are a bit unexpected and pretty decent. Thanks
Who else thinks Grünbag is a great sustainable option for a holiday backpack you'll use forever
I filter my water going into my tank of my motor home and again before I store in fridge or just drink
Spotify blows and RUclips is only 9. Dollars month it's a no brainer.
Well done yet again 👍
Thanks again!!
For those planning on getting an air purifier, make sure it is ozone-free.
You have a typo in drying rack
One of the funniest thing is that what an average American thinks is minimalism is just a normal EUropean way of life.
In a society where overconsumption is the norm... being truly "normal" is seen as underconsumption 😂

The air purifier is the best 😁 however, I do buy essentia bottled water, it’s the best.
Great video!
Wow, this video is really interesting,❄️😇✌🏼
Glad you think so!
Other than the look, please explain to me why people store books on a shelf backwards with the spine facing in.
Curious myself. Weill wait for someone to add.
The books you’ve finished facing in maybe.?
@ No, I have seen bookshelves done that way where they are all facing in.
@@juliegreller9242 It's mostly just for the beigy minimalist/calm aesthetic.
