I'm from Oahu. I got myself a 2022 Triumph Rocket 3R motorcycle and I'm living my best dream !! Back in 2013 I was working at Louis Vuitton on Kalakaua Ave and I was actually working on the 4th of July !! Of course every Friday at around 7pm there are fireworks displays that can be best viewed from an elevated stance that can be seen from U.H Manoa(University of Hawaii). I moved, to Virginia(northern virginia), right before the whole covid virus broke out. I plan on heading back to my native island before it get's cold here in Virginia this winter !!!
@@happypips8383 happy, for me, because Hawaii(island of Oahu) is 5 hour different & 6 Hour difference; depending on East Coast time difference twice per year, I normally trade the market either from 12am- 3am or from 1am-4am. For the most part I simply trade from 1am-3am(and because I'm now deeply established in the trading game and make large profits I now only trade on Friday & Saturday mornings and then have fun around the islands the other 5 days per week) and then go back to bed since I'm able to trade the market on my 12.9" iPad Pro tablet while in bed(no need for me to go to my 27" 5K iMac computer.
@@happypips8383 Happy, well, firstly your money has to be in order because a gallon of milk is $10.64 a gallon on one side of the island and is $12 a gallon on the other side of the island; inflation is a mofo on any island(including Puerto Rico on the other side of the atlantic); everything will nearly be two times to 5 times more in cost; if you are making $100,000 a year on the East Coast that will need to be raised to $400,000 a year for the same lifestyle. I started out in trading Commodities over 20 years ago back in 1995; 5 years before the Euro Currency came out and then I simply took my knowledge from trading commodities & S&P 500 Index to trading the currency market which then translated into trading Options.
@@happypips8383 just keep visualizing that you are NOW sitting on the beach while feeling the sand with your toes and hands and hearing the ocean and hearing the wind against the sway of the palm trees. Just keep doing that everyday for 5 minutes and circumstances and events will take care of the details....
The one thing I recall living there was becoming acclimated to the heat & humidity, so much so that if I went to AC I would freeze. Once it dropped into the 50’s and no heat in the house. It was really very cold to us.
Great video. Probably the most informative in a non sales pitch kind of way so thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
So many wonderful ,much needed details........Love it.......thank you.❤
Thanks for the info - looking at big island as a relocation area.
Glad your own personal experience was good being down south. I find it interesting you compared “southern hospitality “ to Hawaii.
Hawaiian people are very welcoming and see people for who they are. Respect them, the culture and the island and anyone can have lifelong friends. Awesome place ..
Very informative video. Could you do a video explaining the traffic situation more in depth? Like which areas and which direction has the most traffic? I'm going to work at HNL but not sure where I should live to be opposite side of traffic direction
Mahalo, man...great vid. There are active volcanoes in Washington State. Mt. St. Helens is active and it slowly pushing up a new mountain top to replace the one it blew off in 1980.
Mahalo, man...great vid.
Moving from Atlanta to Waikiki next week, can’t waaiittt
How is it?
@@yamidgaray9074 extremely expensive…very transient as there are tourist everywhere. But still I love it here the island is beautiful, people are friendly, food is amazing…I’ve been all over the world I would definitely put waikiki in my top favorite places. Make sure you go out of Waikiki to the other sides of the island even more beautiful.
Good move! 😎
Cool video. Just a note, Alaska and Washington state have active volcanos too. 🤙🏽
Thanks for the video, we're considering moving to Oahu from Henderson, Nevada.
Nice! I just got back from Vegas yesterday. What brings you to the islands?
@@LIVINGINHAWAII808 Well we like to vacation there at Aulani Resort a couple times a year, we like doing the island tour and going to the alamoana shopping center, we just like the atmosphere.
The weather is way better here then back home in Ohio I do not miss Ohio weather
you live in Hawaii and moved from Ohio?! I am planning on moving to Hawaii in December from Ohio. Do you enjoy Hawaii as a whole?
how would you compare living in hawaii to florida?
Not at all
Same question
Caladesi Island across from Dunedin.
Excellent video, could you do a video on Pearlridge or Alamoana malls? Last time I was there was on active duty 1997.
Are you looking for me to cover something in particular at those spots?
@@LIVINGINHAWAII808 Would love to see food court and inside of Farrels Ice Cream with music if it still exist. If I remember correctly, the food court was called "International Food Court," But the last time I visited "Pearlridge," mall was 1981. I hope to move back to Hawaii in 2 years!
Lastine I walked thru them was back in 1997, just the nostalgia of it.
Great video…Mahalo 🎉
*_MAHALO!_*
Man I was station in schofield barracks back in 2013 that July 4th traffic was the worst I ever seen, but I miss Oahu though man good video.
Crazy right! About to happen again too. Thanks for watching!

I'm a retired 40 year old.. I thought about moving there just to be around people not working all the time.. there are few places you can go where people are actually enjoying life.. not sure if that the actual case there, but it seems like a lot of young retired people might be there just enjoying themselves..
LOL! Most people have to work 2-3 jobs to afford to live here!
@@forestsprite5914 Yeah, I wouldn't be hanging out with them haha.. I think I will just move abroad instead somewhere..
I’m considering moving to Hawaii from South Florida (if I can get a solid IT field job first) and this video was very informational! Florida seems to be close to Hawaii in terms of climate and weather patterns. The cost of living is high here in Florida so I don’t expect much of a difference if I moved to Hawaii. I do like the isolation of Hawaii and the laid back vibe, which is something Florida doesn’t have (outside the Keys). Also being so close to Asia is a pro because I always wanted to visit Japan/South Korea. Aside from saving and searching for jobs in Hawaii once I graduate from my Master’s, is there any other preparation I should make in advance?
Having lived in Fort Lauderdale for nearly 5 years myself, the climate is very comparable. I was actually just looking at flights to Japan and they were around $700. The biggest things for a move to Hawaii are finding a job and saving money for the big move. Having healthy reserves can be key.
Remember, the pay scale will be less; Look into the State of Hawaii/Oahu for potential jobs and benefits . The pros outweighs the cons living in Hawaii
Did you move to Hawaii?
I don't remember Oahu being scorching hot like it is here in SC. Then again, that was a long time ago and I was younger.
Yeah we moved from Hawaii to NC and NC is sooo much hotter and humid
@@staceymiller4791Why move from Hawaii to NC? There’s literally like nothing here lol
Aloha everyone! I see a number of apartments for sale in waikiki area. Considering they have HOA, how common is to have rental restrictions? For instance, in chicago many apartments do not allow short term rentals. How common for Waikiki area to have apartment buildings prohibiting owners to airbnb their place? Thank you fellas!
It varies greatly! Typically on the Waikiki side of Kuhio is where most of the approved STR buildings are located. If you're thinking about investing in a condo in Waikiki let's jump on a quick 30 minute call and go over these questions. You can also shoot us a text 808-388-8710 🙏
Hawaii isn't really hot in comparison to the Southeast though as we have the insane humidity.
Hawaiis humidity is consistently above 90%. We just have the ocean breeze
I am probably going to a university in Hawaii from California? any tips.
You’ll be ok. Tons of californians in university of hawaii
I stay @ Iolani Ave.
Mahalo
CON: The homeless problem. I came from the East Coast and I’ve never seen so many. Also, we have been honked at several times. So that’s not true. I do agree the local Hawaiian people are the best!
I live in SC, Hawaii is hotter than here? Cause I thought it would be perfect weather with ocean breeze lol. More humid and hot than here? I might have to reconsider wanting to move there now
It’s a different type of heat. Definitely not as dry with our ocean breezes but everywhere is hot. It’s a matter of your perception. I was just in Las Vegas and it was 110. That 110 didn’t really bother me like it would others but it was also a different heat than a 98 degree day in Hawaii.
I lived in Houston, Texas 30 years, and not because I wanted to. It was tough! I lived in Hawaii 8 years, and only felt the Hot Sun walking around Ala Moana mall in the late afternoon, but nothing like Humid Houston, or even Summer Las Vegas weather was too hot for me, have to run from building to building. Always was dripping wet in Houston from June-Sept.
No! I just came from Greenville SC. It’s not as humid as SC. It doesn’t storm like SC either. I’ve been here two months and I may have seen five minutes combined. It’s sunny 84-87 and a low of 75 everyday.
State taxes are high is a big con . Property tax is once a yr and its a big hit in the pocket.
Honolulu County has some of the lowest property taxes in the nation.
Have you ever been to Waipahu, the hood?
For??? My former acupuncturist, Jon Tokuhara, office was in Waipahu. He was shot and killed a few months ago. I also did some things in the nursing field with public health in Waipahu such as treating young children with ukus in low income areas.
That's the only mustache I've ever seen that seems to have a 'taint' between it and the nose above. 😂
U forgot the biggest con the cost of living Hawaii is not cheap it is in the top 10 most expensive place to live its actually the second most expensive state behind California
Not as expensive as New York City
@@andreajamison1275 - Agree, the Mainland now is almost equivalent to the islands
Yo the new update just dropped
I think the summer is back in Ohio much worse
Who's the guy that comes in at the 14:09 marker?

Pros to living in Hawaii:
* Beautiful scenery and climate
* Outdoor activities
* Great surfing and water sports.
* Perfect springlike weather year-round
* Proximity to Asia, Australia, Tahiti, Fiji, etc.
* Island life is slower, and more relaxing, higher quality than the mainland.
* Cultural diversity with Asian/Caucasian mix about 50:50
* Low violent crime and zero black ghetto culture.
Cons to living in Hawaii:
* Hard to find good jobs which challenge you.
* Housing is expensive and mostly in dilapidated shape.
* High Cost of living overall, food, electricity, gasoline, etc..
* Very high Taxes
* Poorly maintained infrastructure
* A bit of an anti~white/envy/anger toward white success some areas of the state.
* A corrupt and ineffective liberal government
wonder what kind of public transportation does Hawaii have?
@@victorabramov6118 it’s pretty good. TheBus has many routes which run frequently. Drivers are very friendly too. About 30% of the fleet is new but the rest of the fleet is very old - like the 1980s era busses. UBER and LYFT are very useful here.
This is BS. Since it's an Asian majority blacks have good jobs and are successful unlike the mainland. In the contrary whites are looked down on as being the lowlife scum they are
It's not anti white it's anti-tourism which plagues the island and has negative effects on its citizens and the indigenous people who live there
Cultural diversity with Asian and Caucasian mix about 50/50??? It can't be that diverse if you were only able to name two races btw not cultures. A culture is a set of beliefs, values, and potential customs. Please tell us more about black culture and the ghetto. SMH. Anti-white/envy/anger? Coming from which two of the "cultures" you named???🙄
way to cram 3 minutes of information into a 26 minute video.
I bet truck drivers don't make much out there 😂
Hawaii is a California on an island. Florida is the way to go
Kayaking in Florida today 😎
You said you were a Registered Nurse in your last video. Now your a realtor ?
I used to be. Yes I am now a Realtor. Have been for a few years.
We have enough people here...
ain't that the truth...lol....I'm from Oahu. I got myself a 2022 Triumph Rocket 3R motorcycle and I'm living my best dream !!

Your hands are so distracting. Stop
My good friend went ther to work. The people there called him howley all the time. He hated it.
Lol this is so true
@@rockman49er I lived on Oahu 12 years and hated the "dumb haoli" comments and the "hey, haoli girl" treatment a lot. I was a 40 year old divorced female back then, single and working mostly for the government and a couple of private companies. It was my first time experiencing racial discrimination and made me realize what black people have had to put up with for so long. It hurts when all the girls go to lunch and never invite you to join them. I received a lot of Aloha too though, but seems the times you are hurt are the things you remember the most.
