Thank you for interviewing Roger. He is an interesting person and living the dream, working his own hours and not part of a crazy corporate structure. A completely honest lifestyle.
In a city his home would be slum housing. On the beach, a gracious abode. It just depends on how one looks at things. I envy him and his wife. As a fellow Michigander I wish them health and good luck. 😁 👍
Wish I'd seen this vid 30 years ago ! Done crap office jobs most of that time. (in Europe) The fresh air, hard work to keep in shape, would have loved it.
G'day from Australia! I've worked in the Mining Industry as a Dump Truck Operator/Driving Instructor at various open cut gold mines over the years, yet never really heard much about beach mining. Roger and his wife are definitely living the dream while making money for Jam! 😎 I love the idea of doing something similar myself. Peace be with you. 🙏💜💪🌏✅
@@paulabroadworth2504 Hi Paula, I'm Will. Currently from Lansing MI. Where about are you and Roger located? I'm collecting my retirement now and told myself when I grow up I want to be a treasure hunter 🤣 I have 2 gold claims in Idaho but selling one, or give it away cause I can't work both and my son's not interested. He told me when I strike it rich, he'll be right out 😂
That was a great interview, very insightful look at what mining on the beach in Nome can be like. I imagine you really have to love it to do it, especially with those damn bears around...
That was really cool. And you would be surprised on how much that probably meant to him you just stopping buy and chatting and showing an interest. Good on ya well done
Great trip out fam. Keep on having fun getting that au and living the dream. Your doing great work fam. Always have a blast coming by. Gold Squad Out!!!
Thank You for your videos, I'm planning to go there next summer! Good to know kind of what to expect when you get there, I still have a lot of homework to do before I go there
How many months can people do this realistically before weather chases them out? I watch the TV show I was always curious about the beach miners I’m glad I found your channel.
Considering that daylight lasts for 24 hrs during the peak summer months and it starts thawing out around late spring there's probably about 5 months of ideal weather however if you find a hot spot then you can make enough money to get you through the rest of the year when your down due to inclement weather conditions.
@@TheCapns If you know what your doing you can stay in tent's, Teepee's for ever, I used to live/camp rough with friends i the Scottish Highlands before returning to day jobs. If you can make a plywood hut whilst building a log cabin as long as your health holds, then until death or old age, mussels, crabs, lobsters off the beach, free wood, venison, every fooker growing potaoes, veg, roots....Made te wrong choice man.....Take care good luck.
Wow. I am jealous. The 1st time I found gold ( river ) was a shiny eye catching glint / glimmer. Backed up a step and pickced it up. Know a guy who knew a guy who picked it on the Yukon.
@@FunnyAnimalsCrew Think about the Continental US, you can get snow and cold by late October (maybe not so much with the last 4 years of odd weather). That far north that's part of real winter, maybe it starts a weak or two later than it used to but it will generally be uncomfortably cold outside of when you are talking except maybe a few weeks into September as well, depends on the year.
Hats off to you boys and girls doing the hard work out there in the cold you could do that sort of mining in Australia all year round and at least it would be worm but water is a bit of an issu
Bryan is such a considerate nice guy. I noticed several times the way he said things to be helpful. I wonder how Gary and his Wife are? Hope they are well and safe.
Seems like people are really friendly and willing to give advice and help out. I’m saving up my money and I wanna come up and try my luck. Been a dream of mine for last 10 years.
Your dream for the last 10 years?! 🤔 If you don't start this year, you'll never start. What can be done today should be done today or never. Do it! Good luck ✌🙂
@@akgoldbear7669 I have a life a job so it’s not super easy to just pack up and go with zero plan. Also people live check to check. I don’t have a lot of money so ya it’s a dream. Someday I hope I can make it a reality
Unknown to Roger, Hell was coming. All the best Sir!🇨🇦🥓 You still won! Hell has a special way of saying hello...As your being washed away with the surf....😳
This so awesome ! I want to do this. Love the beach life. How long can stay on beach before storms or ice kicks you out?Thanks for taking us on this little tour !
I am SO CLOSE to being one of these people next year.... Sooooo close! My buddies need to finish growing a pair, because right now they've enjoyed the value of being urbanites for too long and convincing them to make this excursion has ended up quickly turning into other subject matters... But I'm going to give this some serious thought. Love the videos and learning a lot. Keep'em coming....
Cool video guys! That dude living with his wife out there may not be correct in everything he says but he sure believes it! You boys treated him great! Thanks for showing what it's like up there. Really doesn't seem too bad if the gold is good. Good luck out there! Joe gold
Gold miners are a special breed! What an awesome dude,livin his dream. That looks like a tough life for not a huge amount of money, but he sounds like he loves it, and makes the most of it.
No need to judge these people they are doing what they want to do and having fun doing it at least they aren't doing slave labor it was me I'd be right up there enjoying the view the salmon the gold and having fun. I've thought about selling my property here in Oregon and purchasing land in Alaska. I have done gold mining in Colorado. Beach mining would just be a hobby. Hats off to these Beach miners! Good luck find lots of gold make lots of money and have fun doing it
Hi, Bryan. Hi, Gary. Good interview. What a way to spend your summer. The Beach Life w/benifits. Gold, salmon, and berries. Beach life is berry berry good. *TYU*
I would love to do that with a small trommel and washer. It bums me out living on the shores of lake erie with similar crappy weather and tons of black sand but almost zero gold. We have tons of rivers and creeks but the glaciers passed over us and dumped their gold further south. If i mined the beach here for ten years i might get a gram. Lol there is a nearby river with a tiny amount of flour gold but its all protected area no sluicing or digging allowed 😢 maybe someday ill make the trek to Nome and seek my fortune. 😊
My friends and I really enjoyed the video. We did some searching online and made some calls, but are stumped by this question: How hard is it to get an all terrain vehicle for the summer, and how much will it cost?

Livin in a shack on a beach digging for gold is my kinda life❤

So what months can you mine the beach without freezing to death? Thank you for all the videos been watch them all for over a year now.
It's mid-August right now, and it's only been in the low 50's for a high the last week or so.
Ok so like June July and August that's it I'm guessing then?

You have to buy on here or ship one up.
Roger seems the type of guy that if he found a mountain of gold he wouldn't know what to do with himself.
He'd puke & piss himself just before crying!!
...an so would I🤑
For sure!
Good gold video
Thanks 👍
That looked like a nice meteorite. That guy's living the dream

Fascinating…
A burning question. I’m sure it’s been said but I forget.
Where does all this gold come from in nome,is it from inland,on the beach or under the waves?
I realise I ought to read up more.it’s just so fascinating.
All gold comes from the stars! It’s a byproduct of a star going supernova (nuclear explosion). Interesting tidbit, they have made gold in a nuclear reactor but it was not economically feasible.
I believe it came from the mountains and glaciers pushed it to the sea. Thanks for watching!
