you’ve clearly been working hard it shows that not only you care but you want to help others because nobody is asking you to do any of this. Thank you for being a good dude
As a recovering addict of 7 years now. Anything in life that comes quick usually has drastic consequences or strings attached. I got into this with the notion that time is my friend not my enemy. Patience is a virtue and I will continue to collect and keep most of my products sealed and hopefully over time my investment will pay off.
I used to run a food cart in downtown Portland Maine years back. People would come up to my cart and be like “this looks cool and fun. I can set my own up”. They act like it is so easy to set up a LLC with the state, get the health inspection through the state. Then getting the additional health inspection permit through the city of Portland because there regulations are stricter than state regulations. Getting all the product I need to sell plus setting it all up myself. Then packing up and cleaning the cart and getting ready for the next day. Running your own business is very rewarding but you must have the motivation and self drive to do everything on your own.
Been watching for a little bit, big fan. excited to see your store/website if your planning on doing that. Congrats on the distribution! That's huuuuuge.
You've reached the next level. So you're going to start encountering a new level of Timmy. Keep up what you're doing. You're doing a great job, and are appreciate by your community. 💪
Alex, I have been watching you for about a year. I have about six months into my channel and I am @ 430 subscribers and you are not lying about videos and how much time it takes. I pump out six shorts a day and one to two videos and maybe a live stream if I can get it in between my dogs and kids and School and Work, but I’m not gonna give up and thank you for being an inspiration and I hope in five years I got something like you if not, I’ll still be watching your channel, not to mention my collection of sealed product is growing and flying into my second closet. lol thank you again and congrats on the distribution
I just found your page and let me tell you it's a goldmine! The unfiltered opinions and raw info you have are clutch! You have gained a new follower and im stoked to see where your knowledge takes you. I'm here for the ride!
Yes is hard work, 2 Pokemon distributions reached out to me after 3 years, when I applied 3 years ago. Without a Retail store, still learning, just got my allocation for Premastic evolution set, is about building relationships and soon will setup my RUclips, Thank you Alex for the great videos, taught me Pokemon industry. Congratulations, keep pushing forward.
I’m a buy it and forget it investor when it comes to Pokemon. It’s good to see videos like this, warning against the instant gratification culture from someone who has seen success and knows how it happens. Happy for you bro.
So I got back in the hobby right around Covid started and have been watching your channel since the beginning when you had hardly any subscribers, and the first time you had talked about selling your product to troll and toad/ the Philly cheesesteaks gang lol you have grinded hard to get where you are now and are still grinding all the time doing 3 pack breaks a week making content every day and joining other peoples live streams / doing your own sounds exhausting but it has been awesome to see your growth and moves you have been able to make. Sorry you have to deal with all the negativity all the time. Congrats on all your hard work starting to pay off your a beast!
Congratulations Alex and get in your distribution you deserve it you are one badass Hyundai smart man with extreme knowledge thank you once again you deserve it
was here when u had like 1k subs went through the cabal era and people can say whatever they want but youre putting out content almost everyday and thats just what we see. youre putting in the work and it shows congrats man looking forward to the future
Alex, you've put in the work and it shows. We're in the middle of week 6 of being a business, and it's a really slow grind (but a lot of fun at the same time). I think the key differentiator (and you're proof) is being a problem solver. Well done!
Amen to all you just said. Some people think a house is built with a nail and a sheet of wood, it take time and at the end you see it all come together.
Congrats Bro, because of you I'm motivated to start my youtube journey opening packs. Doing what I love, collecting and enjoying pokemon with like minded people. Wish me luck! And heres to your future with success 🥂🍻🎊
@@NostalgiaNomics thanks man! I know it will take a lot of work and time. Rome wasn't built in a day and like you said hard work and dedication pays dividends.
Big Congrats. Your ideas and suggestions have truly changed the way that I collect and invest in Pokemon. I am truly happy for your success. Some people are forgetting that the slow grind is all part of reaching our goals.
One of your best videos! My shop grinds out singles at $1 profit just to then invest in a booster box then wait 2-5 years to realize gains on it to invest in another new box to wait again 2-5 years on. If you don’t want to work this isn’t the job for you. Because in the end that is what it is. A job. It’s a grind not a get rich quick scheme. Someone needed to say it and I’m glad you did!
Respect! Preach the truth! Best wishes moving forward! I'm on my journey to have my Pokémon hobby pay for itself. However it turns out, the experiences are the treasure! Never surrender! Keep putting out Amazing content!
Yikes! I’m sorry to hear that. Please know that for all those scavengers there are more of us out here who don’t expect anything from you and are just happy for you and thankful for all the content and advice! Sorry you’ve had this negative experience. Again congratulations on getting distribution and your hard work! Your consistency has really inspired me of the importance of just keeping at it!
I am pretty sure this is the first video of yours I've ever seen, and I don't do the investing side of Pokémon (I'm a very casual collector) I just wanna say that you are speaking the truth about any kind of business with needing to take time. It's awesome to hear that you are succeeding, and that you are a realist about these things. Hope you continue your success, and maybe have some great pulls if you do open some packs!
Congrats on the distribution my dude. Been following your channel for a year and a half now and it's good to see your channel and business continue to grow, Alex! 👍🍻
I kind of felt it was your natural projection Alex, congrats on your success (promotion). Though I have not recognized any gains these last few years, your message has been consistent and I'm hoping your success will bring a payday someday.
haha its like a father talking to his kids or an uncle talking to his nephews... people have no self awareness anymore. Sorry to hear people are trying to leech off you brother. Gratz on all the success. All your advice has been helping me with my personal investments and side business. Thanks!
Congrat on the distro, brother!! You're channel has been highly motivating for me and I'm finally getting back into collecting again after 20 years. :) Love the content, keep it up!!
Hey man, congratulations. I watch you for awhile now and now a sub. I heard from another RUclipsr that you got Distribution which im really happy about.
Loved the video… we as a parents need to make our kids understand that nothing is given in life… you have to work for it… congrats on this success and keep the good content 🎉
Within the next 1-2 years i fully expect Alex to be one of the top dogs in the sector due to his content! The distro is awesome man congrats! All the timmys are most definitely gonna keep messaging you expecting handouts 😂. I never comment on videos but you sir are amazing and inspirational. Me and a friend have a pokemon business in st.louis thats done over 40k in 4 months starting out and your proof that it can get even better! Keep being awesome man your the best ❤
That is true hard work and time will pay off. Hope when I get started the hard work and time will pay off for me too. I do my best at everything I have done, and it has paid off.
Got one of my two surging booster box orders cancelled, want more of it but i don’t know if it’s worth paying over retail for one or just waiting for a reprint that might never come? any thoughts
I appreciate you always keeping it real. You’re right nothing happens over night. But that’s what people don’t understand, the grind is what makes it all so much sweeter when you get to the top. But enjoy the journey and put in the work 🙏🏼
I don't consider this a negative video. This is educational, and hopefully a reality check for people who act entitled and think they can buy a couple cases and become a pokemon kingpin. Hard work pays off and you deserve to be where you are at. As always, thanks Alex!!
I respect the honesty!! I personally think prismatic being a specialty set and seeing the amount of pre demand for in months out will flood the market at some time in 2025
Congratulations on getting a distributor. I got a distributor three years ago and it takes time to build up you allocations. You will definitely rock this even more now.
Great video. Unless you have the capital, growth is usually slow in every industry. On top of that, the competition is insane nowadays, with everyone wanting to be their "own boss." Startup is a lot easier than expansion and delegation. Wish you the best.
It’s really easy for people to fantasize and see the “dream” at the end of the rainbow. It’s easy to visualize yourself being a millionaire courtesy of social media and Hollywood… however, it’s much more difficult to visualize the specific steps and time it takes to realize the aforementioned fantasy.
Great content, as always! I have a quick question: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How can I transfer them to Binance?
Ive been killing it locally, and some folks give me shit for how much stuff I have. They dont realize, Ive been buying when no one else wanted this stuff. Now that everyone wants it, they are mad/jealous lol. Gotta put in the work! Time in the market > Timing the market lol. I'll be contacting you soon for our next deal ;) . Great video
My 2nd favorite TCG RUclips channel, if I can preorder a case of prismatic will make you #1! lol but real talk best TCG channel on RUclips and really enjoy and learn from your content!
This is 100% accurate my man. I've been investing for a few years now loving every minute of it. It takes time and patience! In the beginning was hard fighting the urge to open everything. But now it's so easy!
I never even thought about it until you mentioned it but with the market I can see it sadly... again just congrats from me brother keep grinding forget the little outside noise💪
If people see this as a negative video they don't know what internal growth is. This video has actually amped me up more of my plans to start my card business. Thanks for the knowledge and congrats.
Jesus who got you so bent out of shape bro. Don’t let these people get you so worked up. You seem like you are ready to run through a wall 😂 Congrats on the continued success
The crazy thing is I bet people who make content and talk about distributors, probably do sell to certain people for pennies on the dollar. Can’t hurt to ask but damn, I don’t know of anyone just helping a total stranger, after putting in so much hard work yourself.
Distors don't give newcomers dibs on new products. They have to wait like everyone else does that opens LGS. PRE-ORDER new sets are off limits to new clients to Distors. Also, it is very hard to have a business like an LGS. I have one, and it's a lot of work. You have to work at least 12 to 14 hour days. You have to make sure that you pay taxes in each state if you have a nexus in that state or reach the 200 transactions mark in some states where you will start paying taxes in. You also have to pay taxes in the city/town that you live and / or sell to as well. There is a lot of over haed with brick and motor stores, which can be overwhelming at times. Especially with dealing online. Yes, it's best to be your own boss, but it's a lot of work, time, and money. In the long run, it will pay off, tho. If you run it right, you can be very successful and then enjoy your life after the 10 to 20 years of working for yourself.
Thank you for the reminder to be patient. This is a positive video for me. My takeaway is time and effort lead to success. Not a week or a month, but years. It's daunting but inspiring as well.
Iv been threw 3 cycles in the crypto market and it's the same every boom, only couple years in pokemon investing and the cycles and craziness is on par to a T lol
With how often you post I figured you would let us know when we could make purchases like that. It's really crazy how spoiled and impatient some people are.
The more i watch and read about in the TCG investor bro realm the more i believe people have more money than we realise. If people are ever in any doubt as to how much money people have in this world despite 2008 crisis, multiple conflicts, viral pandemic etc in the last 15 years this video hints at the answer. The divide between those who have and those who have not is intergalactic - willing to jump ship on a distributor and pump thousands into the latest 'deal' with your scrooge duck money dive is baffling
I was expecting you to show up in this video with a cape top hat and magic wand lol making everyones dreams come true. But thanks for the daily upload. Literally open youtube you and pokene are my daily must watch

Too late. I didn't even watch. I traded my entire sealed collection for a pet rock.
Thank you for your business
Dude you got a Bitcoin?!?!???😂
@@HereThereBackAgain 2, actually. A guy from a Chuck E Cheese sold me his.
How's the centering and surface on the rock? Gradeable?
@@magnificcenTCG Centering and surface appear to be something only a mother could love. 🤣
😂 they said Alex get a distribution we get a distribution 😭
This is definitely your best video yet many people don’t want to put any effort into anything anymore
Anything worth while takes work
As a recovering addict of 7 years now. Anything in life that comes quick usually has drastic consequences or strings attached. I got into this with the notion that time is my friend not my enemy. Patience is a virtue and I will continue to collect and keep most of my products sealed and hopefully over time my investment will pay off.
100% brother! Ever since I found NN I've found the value of patience. Buy it low and sit on it! What could possibly go wrong?
Congrats my friend. 🎉 well done
Yeah same here.
I am using app called i am sober
Excellent to keep myself on the straight line.
I was for 10 years heavy coke addicts
What did you expect from the Timmy’s when you announce you have a distributor.
I used to run a food cart in downtown Portland Maine years back. People would come up to my cart and be like “this looks cool and fun. I can set my own up”. They act like it is so easy to set up a LLC with the state, get the health inspection through the state. Then getting the additional health inspection permit through the city of Portland because there regulations are stricter than state regulations. Getting all the product I need to sell plus setting it all up myself. Then packing up and cleaning the cart and getting ready for the next day.

I read the title and just panic sold my entire sealed collection.
Then I watched the video.
Whoops.

RUclips definitely not easy. We just started about 3 months ago maybe and have 230 subscribers [which we are happy with btw]. GG on distribution btw 🤙
This is such a great video that many, many people should watch that are in the hobby. I hope this goes viral within the Pokemon hobby.

Way to much FOMO at this rate
Congratulations on getting a distributor. I got a distributor three years ago and it takes time to build up you allocations. You will definitely rock this even more now.
Great video Alex! Would look into MTG collector boxes for your PC if your distributor is offering MTG along with Pokemon. Patience is a virtue.
Even if they don't like negative they should still listen 🗣
Great video. Unless you have the capital, growth is usually slow in every industry. On top of that, the competition is insane nowadays, with everyone wanting to be their "own boss."
Startup is a lot easier than expansion and delegation. Wish you the best.

Slow and steady wins the race as they say. Thanks for keeping it entertaining along the way!
The truth most people don't want to hear, it's consistency and hard work. This applies to all things in life
Well said my friend, you are absolutely spot on
Great video man, and congrats again. Your story is inspiring and I appreciate you sharing. Always nice to have a reminder to keep on grinding
Congrats man I'm trying to work my way up to this good luck
Great channel. Always helpful & informative. Keep up the awesome work brother.🙏

patience is a virtue..and good things co,me to those who wait..the youth of today think they deserve it all right now..great video alex
The crazy thing is I bet people who make content and talk about distributors, probably do sell to certain people for pennies on the dollar. Can’t hurt to ask but damn, I don’t know of anyone just helping a total stranger, after putting in so much hard work yourself.
didnt know i wasnt subscribed the amount of times you pop up on my feed. just subbed
Distors don't give newcomers dibs on new products. They have to wait like everyone else does that opens LGS. PRE-ORDER new sets are off limits to new clients to Distors. Also, it is very hard to have a business like an LGS. I have one, and it's a lot of work. You have to work at least 12 to 14 hour days. You have to make sure that you pay taxes in each state if you have a nexus in that state or reach the 200 transactions mark in some states where you will start paying taxes in. You also have to pay taxes in the city/town that you live and / or sell to as well. There is a lot of over haed with brick and motor stores, which can be overwhelming at times.
