[@HokaYona]

I just saw your face pop up on a recommended video... I recognised you from your other channel, I really liked your Xinjiang content... I take it you're not still there? What's the story? Are you still in China? Do you still make daily life / travel type vlogs as well? Glad I found more of your content.

[@AllThingsSecured]

Kicked out of China unfortunately. Long story 😳

[@NhiPhan-vs1ux]

Can I do Credit freeze if I dont have a credit account? I only use debit card so far. And do these 3 bureaus work in Poland (or EU in bigger picture)?

[@cottoncandyplays8182]

hello!so a month ago I used a VPN called "Hola VPN"(free) I have been using it till yesterday, I found out that it's dangerous. after I heard that I took it off from the chrome and uninstalled it. I still don't know if they have my IP address. do you think that I am safe by taking it off from chrome and uninstalling it?

[@newbeginnings9457]

This is Hilarious! 🤣🤣😂

[@AllThingsSecured]

I hope hilarious in an entertaining way.

[@ramy8700]

Can you make a video on how to freeze and unfreeze credit?

[@thaik56]

Equifax offers the option online while Transunion you have to call them. You have to create an account first.

[@222wheelsdown]

Only 2 min in and this is freaking hilarious 🤣🤣

[@AllThingsSecured]

Thanks 😎

[@davecrupel2817]

Your kids are probably like "i have no idea what daddy's saying but it's making me sleepy"
😂

[@dadexdadex9088]

Hi Josh, as an expat I don not have to worry about a bank account or credit score. My bank threw me out because of Obama's FATCA. are you having issues with your bank where you live?
Thanks for your videos

[@AllThingsSecured]

I’m not, and they know exactly where I live. In fact, I’ve even been able to open new accounts while living in Asia, so I’m not sure what issues you’re facing. So sorry!

[@jimmycain8669]

My credit score is right there on my give a crap list at number 976 right next to diversity

[@jeffstanton3111]

question - do you get tp know who gives you a thumbs up?

[@AllThingsSecured]

No, I do not.

[@glasslinger]

Cute kids are like cats as far as popular. Well, maybe not quite as effective as the cats!

[@AllThingsSecured]

Ha! I like to think of my boys as at least a couple steps above cats 😂

[@pretor706]

Hahaha funny way LOL.

[@AllThingsSecured]

Thanks! 🙏

[@cool_cat007smoove3]

They don't tell you that you don't have to pay for a Credit Freeze

[@teenguyen4124]

Gosh u hv hella good looking kids! 😮

[@patriciakyte8035]

Does a credit freeze hurt your credit rating?

[@AllThingsSecured]

No

[@thewiseceo]

You got me on this one! Love it! Keep making awesome content.
