This is RUclips's attempt to counter radicalisation. You are watching this video, together with Flat Earthers, a Saudi Imam, right wing survivalists, and Antifa militants, and all of them are thinking if it is possible to rob a laundromat, or is that just me?
@@Tore_Lund I get what you're trying to say, but at the same time, I've never been reccomended Flat Earthers, a Saudi Imam, right wing survivalists, Antifa militants, etc.(Okay, I have been reccomended a lot of right wing commentary/talk host channels, but not as extreme stuff as you're describing.)
You’re right RUclips does send people to you that wouldn’t have normally seen your videos. I’m from the UK and haven’t watched anything like this before but I’m glad I watched, I was hooked all the way through
I'm also from the UK and have no idea how I ended up watching this 😐 my life went seriously wrong somewhere that video was so boring but I watched the whole thing.
@Russ Gallagher I was talking about ad revenue from the video. Low end payment per 1000 views is a dollar, so he probably made more the 4000 if this video was fully monetized.
Advice from an old guy...... Replace all of the floor tiles. Straighten and put wires/cables in a loom for the TV. Repair the screwed up ceiling. Ditch the meh tan paint for something more inviting. Trust me, it's money well spent.
but most people who own these types of businesses that they just walk into 2 to 3 times a week to collect or to fill will never spend any real money to fix it up. Lets get real, he had a whole line of washers that were down so I would assume keeping the old dated machines running would be his first priority. But you are correct an updated look goes a long way to make people think youre tying to update.
@@bobsmith1965 I hate to see people buy a business just to milk it for a while and then dump it. I hope this isn't what he is doing with this place. It sounds like a great location for a laundromat.
Investment Joy 5:29 Lemme tell y'all a story ... Just like @Investment Joy here My father was once broke and lived in an apartment. He was so tight on cash and never thought to where he would reach now. He owns a 1.3 mil gas station that is doing extremely well and even bought his own house in 2001. All of this came from hard work and dedication. We should be blessed with what we have. I am so grateful that my family can support me and my father is able to support our family as well as my mother. Your story immediately reminded me of my dad. Thanks, Dad, you did a ton for all of us.
Awesome story. That's so respectful of you to honor your dad like this. He is obviously a great dad since he raised such an awesome child! Thanks for posting.
I just smoked a very large bowl of herb... This was insane when you're stoned. I could spend hours dumping all those coins into the coin pusher.... But I don't know why he has all the broken washing machines? If they aren't affecting revenue, why not remove them and add 2 more coin pushers? Just my thoughts.
Yeah, to be honest having a traditional salary as a backup for your business ventures really helps. Owning and maintaining just one laundromat for example isn't that much of a workload (depending on where it is I suppose) for the amount of money you make on the side.
You walking around your laundromat and collecting your quarters inspires me and teaches me more than any "guru" of the stereotypical sort ever has, and probably ever will. This is some concrete stuff brother. As a fellow Ohioan from Cincy, thank you.
That’s why they call it money laundering... when places became coverups for money it started in laundromats... thus, we get the term money laundering! Fun fact!!
A small, unsolicited loss prevention tip from an underwriter, if you care: ATM thefts have been increasing over the last few years and that ATM right by the from window is the absolute perfect target; I've seen many claims where thieves take a truck and chain, break the window, tie the chain to the ATM and drive off. While they don't always get the ATM (when it's properly bolted down), it would likely cause a lot of damage to the building itself. If you can, I would recommend moving it to the back of the building (away from windows) to discourage thieves from trying to take the ATM.
@@ateaparrot-ix6zi This isn't the solution - waving your hand at the problem and saying "just get insurance" is how you get sky high rates and underwriting cancellations - we even have a term for that mindset: a moral hazard.
@@calummckinney They get away with it often enough that it's a growing trend. They probably just take it around a corner out of camera view, use tools to open it, pull out the cash, and run.
I did not just watch a 31 minute video about man collecting money from his laundry mat, and then counting it, I mean I did but wtf. Still enjoyed it tho
I’d recommend you get something to defend yourself when doing this. Whether a firearm, or another person. My cousin owns vending machines and when he was out collecting his money someone tried to rob him with a knife. My cousin pulled out his firearm and descalated the situation. Definitely not a job you want to let your guard down doing. Hope it helps!
Just found your channel. And have to say, i was homeless for 10 years (including being evicted) but ive been thinking about starting a self storage, rv park, or laundry mat. Keep doing what you're doing!
I know, right? ONE coin pusher is clearly more lucrative for thieves than a number of washers, dryers, and vending machines with coin boxes. (sarcastically speaking)
Patrick Cook It’s a decent haul and it’s very quick. I really doubt any thief would want to spend roughly thirty minutes breaking in to every single coin box when they can break the pusher and get out quickly.
I don’t think you know how badly I’d want to paint the walls, the dryer doors, washing machines, and make everything look all cute. It would honestly bring in so much more customers (you know, the indie “unique” ones) jk but still
Turkey Brisket Would you rather eat at a restaurant with plain chipped walls and patternless tables? Or a restaurant with a fireplace, old photos of important figures on the painted walls, and tables with names and stories engraved on them?
Just for clarity since he never answers the question: In approx. 5 days he pulls $565 in quarters which is about $2,260/month and if we assume (it's not said) that the bill collection is also for a 5 day period then the laundromat all included pulls $1,157 per week or $5,785 per month, minus the amount of coins and bills fed back into the coin and bill changing machine and minus any repair needed on any machine.
...and minus the rent he pays on the building, and water and electricity costs, and the costs of the sodas and snacks and soap etc., and insurance costs, etc. Most of the quarters are actually his initial quarter investment from the change machine, that he puts right back into the change machine. The right way to do the math on this, is to count only the coins (except from the snack machines). He didn't make any money off the bill changer, so the bills put in, equal the quarters taken out. Really then, it's about maybe $650 in revenue total per week. Maybe half of that is profit? ~at most around $1200/month of profit. You would need a bunch of laundromats like this to make a decent living off it.
@@xisotopex yeah the time invested is important. A lot of use probably can make just as much with our regular jobs than have the hassle and responsibility of owning something.

RUclips- “aye man you wanna see a guy take his money out of his laundromat and vending machines” Me-“I mean I’ll try anything once so why not” Me 7 years later- “I am now the first self made laundromat millionaire”
Your video was recommended to me in Australia. Subscribed as you sound like a good guy with no BS and lots of honest information. Good luck on all your endeavors.
Where i live laundrymats are exclusively used by a certain group of people and theyre so disgusting that nobody else WANTS to use them anymore. A lot of them had to close because they were losing more money having to clean and fix everything they destroyed. Its amazing hoe clean your machines still are
At a first glance, it looks like he's making a fair amount of money, however, if you were take into account the amount of electricity it takes to run the building, the electricity, the water, as well as the cost of upkeep and repairs for the washers/driers and the the cost of refilling the vending machines, as well as any other costs I'm missing for running a business, insurance on machines and the building; all these costs really even out the money that he makes. In fact, I'm willing to bet that, some weeks, he's at a lost in profit.
....but when you also take account on his videos, this sposored vid would most likely make a few hundred or a thousand because of its millions of viewers and the ad revenure ofc. Since alot of people are also hooked on this type of video, they're most likely to subscribe. With that, they'd watch more and more. The views picks up and also the money. It would sure pay the bills of his work, rent and other nececcities.
Actually you would most machines like that don't actually use that much electricity and bulk buying for the vending machines will always net profit even if it isn't much, and he does these collections every 5 days or so and make decent amounts each time, id say depending on the insurance and rent he should be making a decent money not including his RUclips revenue
Did you not hear him say he was doing this to stay happy and alive? Hes just showing what he does in his life. Yes not trying to make one picky person slightly amused. Stop.
"does the laundromat I BOUGHT 6 months ago make money?" We'd be able to figure that answer out if you showed your income statement. What's your overheads?
This video really only exists to give some credence to the ridiculous amount of income he reports from this business on his taxes. He's claiming more income then he takes in to launder the money. No better place to launder cash then at a laundry mat.
Laundering money isnt rocket science. Some people act like it takes a genius to come up with these things when in reality it just takes time and some creativity...
Hi Brandon can I make a suggestion I used to empty vending machines and I colour code my keys with little round stickers to make it easier and a bit quicker Jen from North Wales UK x
I literally came to the comment section to type about how this video is getting my anxiety on high overload. Especially when he dropped the cup of coins from the counter. Then I saw this comment so I'm so glad it's not just me. At least I didn't have to be the first to type this comment and instead I can just reply to this one. It just made me so beyond nervous. Like I legit watched that cup fall over in slow motion and I could see it happening and just wanted to reach out and grab it. Ughhhh 🤣🤣🤣
@SpecialEd Cop Really?! Dude, chill out. He said something that I thought was funny. If you didn't, that's okay. That is how you feel. I gave my opinion. It did not require a commentary from you or the modfather. Go find something better to do than troll people on RUclips.
Right I would like to know what he paid for the laundry, rent maintenance etc to see what the roi is kinda curious for a new stream, problem is would a bank count this as income I know a guy with 3 self serve car wash makes great money but can’t get loan because of business type
Ok so he makes gross around 50k, that’s a 5 day collection at 700$ depending on what he bought the Matt for and what his expenses are I don’t think this is a high return, also pretty time intense
I would suggest using one Hardy’s cup to scoop quarters from the bucket into machine, and another to catch them. It should work out perfectly, but that’s me using hillbilly math
The numbers get thrown off because the quarters from the exchange machine should only be counted once, but in this case are counted twice. For example, someone puts $10 in the exchange machine and uses the quarters in a washer. He'll count the $10 in the exchange machine, and $10 in the washer but he didn't make $20. So he should count the quarter haul MINUS the amount of quarters in the exchange machine.
Dude, you’re clearly double dipping! Every dollar in the change machine is offset by four quarters in the laundromat. Your real earnings are the dollars In the change machine. The quarters need to go back into the bill changer. You can’t count the quarters in the laundromat and the dollars in the bill changers. It’s one or the other, but not both.
@@gatorr4life I mean, he brought it up in the video, it didn't need to be said. Everyone but Stephen isn't paying attention yet they're the ones pointing the fingers. Mr. Rogers wouldn't be proud.
@@domonator1167 Uhh... I'll try and check? And put the timestamp around 10-15 early so you'll have time to catch it. After trying to look for it for 25 minutes by watching this over, I have unsuccesfully found it. I will blame it on my RUclips crashing and being on mobile. Apologies.
one day in the far off future: “damn, we gotta file for bankruptcy” cleans out the office furniture and find three thou in dropped quarters “on second thought we are fine”
I had a clogged main drain once at my laundromat. It turned out the main 8" drain trap was completely clogged with quarters.... about 60lbs worth when it was all said and down.
Watching this is like watching an irl version of those games like Lemonade Stand where he keeps buying more and different machines for better efficiency.

With an extra vending machine, you should put practical supplies such as laundry detergent, cleaning products, everyday items people need in a pinch.
That is a fantastic idea

Nice SSS pfp btw
“I hear voices, but don’t know where they’re coming from.....also like my life”
At a first glance, it looks like he's making a fair amount of money, however, if you were take into account the amount of electricity it takes to run the building, the electricity, the water, as well as the cost of upkeep and repairs for the washers/driers and the the cost of refilling the vending machines, as well as any other costs I'm missing for running a business, insurance on machines and the building; all these costs really even out the money that he makes. In fact, I'm willing to bet that, some weeks, he's at a lost in profit.
Cameron Mays very true I think all these people commenting are not considering all these factors
....but when you also take account on his videos, this sposored vid would most likely make a few hundred or a thousand because of its millions of viewers and the ad revenure ofc. Since alot of people are also hooked on this type of video, they're most likely to subscribe. With that, they'd watch more and more. The views picks up and also the money. It would sure pay the bills of his work, rent and other nececcities.
and rent
I'd like to see his reply. How much profit does he make?
Actually you would most machines like that don't actually use that much electricity and bulk buying for the vending machines will always net profit even if it isn't much, and he does these collections every 5 days or so and make decent amounts each time, id say depending on the insurance and rent he should be making a decent money not including his RUclips revenue
17:00 if my thinking is correct, this is not earned money but his own money in a different form. He put in coins and got out notes.

We'd be able to figure that answer out if you showed your income statement. What's your overheads?
This video really only exists to give some credence to the ridiculous amount of income he reports from this business on his taxes. He's claiming more income then he takes in to launder the money. No better place to launder cash then at a laundry mat.

Jennifer Torpey that’s actually a really good way to save time when your unlocking the boxes because you automatically know which key is for a washer
Nail polish works better
The also make covers for the back of the keys that are color coated.

@@isaiasjim9800 Could you elaborate?
Right I would like to know what he paid for the laundry, rent maintenance etc to see what the roi is kinda curious for a new stream, problem is would a bank count this as income I know a guy with 3 self serve car wash makes great money but can’t get loan because of business type
Ok so he makes gross around 50k, that’s a 5 day collection at 700$ depending on what he bought the Matt for and what his expenses are I don’t think this is a high return, also pretty time intense
@King Cat all he said was if it makes money, don't think too much bud.
I would suggest using one Hardy’s cup to scoop quarters from the bucket into machine, and another to catch them. It should work out perfectly, but that’s me using hillbilly math

@@blacksupra001 thank you james
The numbers get thrown off because the quarters from the exchange machine should only be counted once, but in this case are counted twice.
For example, someone puts $10 in the exchange machine and uses the quarters in a washer. He'll count the $10 in the exchange machine, and $10 in the washer but he didn't make $20.
So he should count the quarter haul MINUS the amount of quarters in the exchange machine.
@@GMen_3D eat poop isaac
Dude, you’re clearly double dipping! Every dollar in the change machine is offset by four quarters in the laundromat. Your real earnings are the dollars
In the change machine. The quarters need to go back into the bill changer. You can’t count the quarters in the laundromat and the dollars in the bill changers.
It’s one or the other, but not both.
