Love Nick's mindset. For all his entertaining character, the humble man behind it is pretty damn epic. Grounded where it counts. Still consistent with the workout stuff, the MFAM bbq's. Who else in his industry does that...
It is too few and far between my friend. Makes you feel grateful for all of the stability we do have in an unstable world right now. Really enjoyed this video and conversation.
I don’t wanna sound like someone that likes other people being worried/troubled but i like listening to you talking about real shit. Helps us realize that everything isn’t all sunshine and rainbows in your life like most streamers make it seem, you are going through the same shit we all go through and this video really helps people see that. Please continue to stay real!
making a $300,000 gaming room is not going to add value to the home. Unless some super rich fan buys the house, he will lose money on that portion of the investment. regardless of the property
@@joelhassell8126 I mean the basement was empty and unfinished so by him making the gaming room he isn’t losing a ton. The price of the house went up from him making the room regardless of it being used for gaming. He also made a lot of money from just showing the room and having his sponsors displayed in it. Yea I’m sure he’ll still lose some money from it or break even but it’s not a waste because he invested in his career.
@@joelhassell8126 wrong. That adds a ton of value. Also the market has skyrocketed. He has already more than. Likely made his money back if he wanted to sell right now.
Can’t stand people who say you’re all about the money and not the fans. The giveaways, the bbqs, the workout streams, the stories… you have no clue how beneficial you are back towards your community. The real ones know how you are, and I feel like that’s what matters. MFAM for life bro. Please keep this stuff up.
I really really appreciate how positive Nick always is even when talking about topics like life for the past few years.. Its been weird but we keep on going and learning :) Appreciate you nick, you really are an inspiration brother ♥️
i played football w your brother in hartland and your dad used to coach us. funny hearing the story about your dad during christmas because im so used to coach K. growing up I used to get all worked up about going to practice because I dreaded how hard you dad made us work but looking back I wish we had like 5 of your dads as our coach. I miss the old days playing with Steven
This needs to become a weekly series - I don’t get to tune in a lot during the streams so I miss a ton of cool stories. I relate to so many of them lol
Weird times is an understatement I’d never considered moving to Florida till all this stuff went down. So far haven’t made the move but if things get worse definitely on the board. Keep up the good work man. We’re all out here grinding just like you.
I’ve only recently started watching nick, I’m probably old enough to be his dad, he has a great personality. I’m from the U.K. and my lifelong friend is from the north of England and nick is an American version of him. When nick, cloakzy and 72hrs are doing their thing it reminds me so much of our group when we were his age. 👍💪
For being a multimillionaire ( a hard working and deserving one ) he does connect with to his community on a real level. Nick is always a straight shooter and I can appreciate that.
You just talking is really refreshing! Like obviously we live for the gameplay but talking more about your life and what’s going is really good to hear!
Your transparency is on another level. Bless you man you’re doing great things. We all can do our own stuff being stuck at home sucks, but at the same time the government is doing there best, and I feel like above that there are so many job opportunities everywhere it is time to create new paths for themselves and not let fear hold them back.
man i love that some people don't understand that you can straight up just sell your house and if the markets right your looking good with some profit. some people in your chat really discount the fact that you are a good businessman as well as a gamer. this mans securing the bag on the daily reaching out to get brand deals you think he doesn't know or have a guy for his real estate needs.
In an alternate universe I could definitely see Nick as a starting center for the Michigan Wolverines leading the league in goals and penalty minutes for sure
I have only really watched Nick since he started his grind and Apex . This guy is really growing on me . Like the just chatting stuff . Helps ya get to know someone better .hope to see more
indeed this past year felt soooo strange for everyone.. stay healthy Nic! You made me keep goin through the past year, glad to be part of MFAM eventhough currently im not even live in US..
more videos like this for the people that miss the stream, love you bro you do hella good work and have built a great community that follows you for who you are and not a video game keep killin it 🤙🏽
Bro this makes me go from like to love for nick mercs. Homie your story is like mine even though mine was a little different not having a dad, but same shit pretty much. Most of all I love hearing you say how you weren't going to complain, even though you were heartbroken. I have had many many Christmases and birthdays like that.. I never said a word and just kept it g and grateful for what my momma dukes could do. now that I'm a dad I spoil the shit out of my kids, and sometimes I get mad because they don't know what actual respect is. Crazy cause even though I don't really want them to be spoiled, I don't want them to ever feel the way I felt ever! It's a hard line to walk.. either way man much respect you dude thanks for the story time that was cool really really cool. You need to let people get to know you a little more, I think that means a lot to the people that watch you daily
Crazy to read this comment because I’d be in your children’s shoes when I grew up. I turned out great my my father had nothing and gave me everything. You’re a great man for considering your children like that and no matter what they’ll love you forever and that’s the most important
Your streams and videos have been the reason why I haven’t gone crazy, working in the public is hard man… don’t know what people are coming in with or what my coworkers bring in. I love all of the content Nicky! I’ve always wanted to play ice hockey too!
Story is so close to my childhood type. Wanted to do ice hockey, but once I found how expensive it was, I stuck to street hockey in front of our house because we lived in the culdesac of the neighborhood and had nets, and gear and skates, was so much fun. But here I am 28 can't barely stand in hockey roller blades lol
If Nick and Tim picked topics within the gaming scene or current events going on in the world and they shared their opinions on it. It could be a nice podcast/new channel for them both
As someone from NE Indiana the ice hockey story hits home. We never played but my brothers and I played street hockey and in the winter we played on our pond when it froze over. Fun times haha
Love to hear your opinions on everything. And all your stories man. People sometimes don’t realize that even though you may be in a better position financially then others doesn’t mean that this stupid germ hasn’t caused heart ache and problems for you also. Money doesn’t solve all your problems and sadly that’s a really easy excuse for all of us who aren’t as well off as others. Much love man keep doing what you are doing and don’t feel like you have to justify anything you do to anyone else.
The state shut down thats the best you got to walk away from a 300k gaming studio? Nick you spend countless hrs solo, gaming on stream then head into your private gym. A shut down state isn't effecting you. Love the hockey story though. Good stuff. You are Michigan at heart but you just like the Florida life style better. It's called salt life and you got a taste lol. Have a good one.
Agreed. And Florida being open isn't a good thing. Hearing all these twitch millionaires like Shroud and Nick, who I have a lot of respect for and who make content that I really enjoy, complaining about taxes is just something else.
Nick giving love to Hockey, fr hockey is the best sport in highschool in Minnesota, the atmosphere at the Minnesota state highschool hockey championship will never be topped, it’s the best
Saying you like everything open while in the middle of a global pandemic, people dying and everything going on in the world is just elitist bullshit. I like Nick I really do but Saying these kind of things with the influence on young people he has is his perspective and everything but it's sad to see. It's egoistic but I guess that just the Florida way
@@_VeL0_ it does bother me that somebody who I donated to may spend that money on political campaigns that would potentially hurt my interests and community. His opinion has no bearing on my life. Just how it relates to himself as a public figure. Good enough answer dickhead?
@@Tonynewkirk not really, you just turned to name calling and ranting about personal issues. if you have an issue with his views then don’t donate money…. he can do what he wants with his money. sorry softie :)
@@Tonynewkirk and as a public figure he can feel anyway he wants to. just because every media outlet pushes the narrative that republicans are bad which obviously they have brainwashed you to think then that’s your issue. everyone can choose their own opinions and they don’t need to fit the narrative the media is brainwashing you to think lol. turn off cnn for a bit and learn to develop your own thoughts and critical thinking skills that you obviously lack.
Legit my fav video of you man. We all love watching you slay lobbies and all.. but getting to know the real Nicky Mercs? wish i could like this video more than once! Need more of this!
Yeah bubbas I know you stream and it’s 8 to 17 hours of your day! But your ability to just speak freely, And to be unapologetically yourself. I wish you had a podcast just dedicated to conversations. Amazing Content Nicky!
Nick talking to a chat full of teenagers that don't understand the importance of property investment and what that can do for you long term. This dude is doing great, that house will sell for a few million right as Nick's kids are going to college, or when he decides to hang up the controller and just enjoy life. Big W.
this was great nick, i love listening to your youtube videos while i play my ps5. when you did this type of vid it really gave me 30 mins of listening without having to look at your screen. like a podcast lol loved it.
WE NEED A WHOLE CHANNEL FOR THESE STORIES MAN great content bro
Agree
Let's call it
"Nickmercs Story time while destroying kids in gameplay"
No we don't need that
@@edgegamer1409 imagine
Agreed
Nick talking about his childhood was so humbling and wholesome. It hit me in the feels I can't lie.
Love Nick's mindset. For all his entertaining character, the humble man behind it is pretty damn epic. Grounded where it counts. Still consistent with the workout stuff, the MFAM bbq's. Who else in his industry does that...
These guys should be our politicians. Positive af, funny and disciplined.
@@davidwaynemain hells yeah. Joe Rogan for President and Nick Mercs VP. Would be the best 8 years.
It is too few and far between my friend. Makes you feel grateful for all of the stability we do have in an unstable world right now. Really enjoyed this video and conversation.

Love how the chat said buying the house was stupid when real estate is just a huge return profit if you let it inflate
making a $300,000 gaming room is not going to add value to the home. Unless some super rich fan buys the house, he will lose money on that portion of the investment. regardless of the property
@@joelhassell8126 couldnt he like use all of the equipment that was used in that room and move it into the new house?

Don't even need the gameplay, nicky talking his shit is what we love
Need more of these
Fr dead ass
Coming from a canadian, got chills when Nick's talking about his buddy fighting. Best video I've seen on this channel
$300,000 grand.. holy that’s more then my house
@GamersUnite bro he makes that from twitch alone but plus TH-cam and sponsorship it’s insane
300k for a house
*cries in NY housing market*

Thats more then all the money in Nevada, by A LOT
This needs to become a weekly series - I don’t get to tune in a lot during the streams so I miss a ton of cool stories. I relate to so many of them lol
Definitely a good format for stories. I love listening to them because it reminds me of my own childhood.

I can be your budget American version of Nick 🤣🤣 DM I’ll get some games on the PC with you
For being a multimillionaire ( a hard working and deserving one ) he does connect with to his community on a real level. Nick is always a straight shooter and I can appreciate that.
This shoulda been the canuck episode, the snowboard and hockey stories hit right in the childhood feels.
I almost peed when you told the part you were mad at Tim for taking that ball in the face hahaha 😂 still laughing thinking about laughing about it
it warms my heart seeing all these big streamers play apex man its been weeks and i cant get over it.
Tim and Nick have to be some of the best story tellers
You just talking is really refreshing! Like obviously we live for the gameplay but talking more about your life and what’s going is really good to hear!
Your transparency is on another level. Bless you man you’re doing great things. We all can do our own stuff being stuck at home sucks, but at the same time the government is doing there best, and I feel like above that there are so many job opportunities everywhere it is time to create new paths for themselves and not let fear hold them back.
The fact you tell me to like the video reminds me to like the video
Strange times indeed. Thanks for giving a little peak at your non-gaming life. Peace, Love, and FREEDOM
WE NEED A WHOLE CHANNEL FOR THESE CHANNELS MAN
Nick I love the story times man. Played hockey my whole life and this was so awesome to listen to. Definitely want these on the channel more often!!
Absolutely love nick talking over gameplay. The downside to missing streams is this type of vibe that it’s tough to show on TH-cam
It would be hilarious if you did "my first" series or something like that. I love listening to your stories, I'm not even watching the gameplay.
First time Nick shat his pants !
(Besides when he was a Little Nick toddler )
man i love that some people don't understand that you can straight up just sell your house and if the markets right your looking good with some profit. some people in your chat really discount the fact that you are a good businessman as well as a gamer. this mans securing the bag on the daily reaching out to get brand deals you think he doesn't know or have a guy for his real estate needs.

The hockey stories were great, this vid was fire
Open states for the win! :)
Love from Texas bro
I know Nick has done some NFL streams before, would love to see him watch some hockey too.
Love the channel man keep up the awesome work.
Amazon/Twitch has a deal with the NFL to show Thursday Night games. That's the only reason he's able to show those games.
Hockey is trash
indeed this past year felt soooo strange for everyone.. stay healthy Nic! You made me keep goin through the past year, glad to be part of MFAM eventhough currently im not even live in US..
more videos like this for the people that miss the stream, love you bro you do hella good work and have built a great community that follows you for who you are and not a video game keep killin it 🤙🏽
Low-key a video I needed but didn’t know I needed 😂
"Waste of money"
"You don't know what you're talking about it's okay" - what he meant: brutha I make bank haha

Proper video...reminded of the competition against older generation as a young guppy haha One Love
TH-cam is going back to commentary over gameplay and i love it. Just like back in the day 😌
I could sit and listen to your commentary. Your outlook on life and other aspects is great and relatable. Definitely enjoy these videos.
Nicky that was a great explanation... Love your attitude thanks for sharing of some grounded thoughts :-)
Bro amazing absolutely amazing if you read the comments please read this and continue with life talks and stories it helps me as
A man to move forward

Nick please make a Just chatting channel! I love Tim’s channel and I would love you to have one to listen to as well! Can’t wait for the BBQ!
Living here in NYC… hearing you talk about Florida….. pushing me closer and closer to finally making the move.
