Craziest thing it’s probably not some kid in a village somewhere. It’s probably a kid who lives not too far from all of us that experience these types of situations day by day
This was quite a nice surprise, I was just rewatching all my favorite challenge videos today also, I would love to meet this guy he’s very empathetic, nice, and overall seems like someone great to hang out with😁🤩🤩
This guy has really put himself through hoops for his job. Gotta commend his dedication and how thoughtful he was even when he was technically starving. Best infographics lab rat ever :))
i had hit hard times and on saturdays I would dress nicely and walk to the car dealerships near my neighborhood for the free hot dogs, popcorn and pop and on sundays i would walk around sams club for free samples. i got my toilet paper from public bathrooms. the local grocery store would pull the produce from the day before and if i got there in time they would let me have it. they never shamed me for it as i think they were glad i was not shoplifting. then my job came thru but i have never forgotten
I see you guys are pushing for that 10 mil, hope you hit it soon! I’m still trying for 1000 subs myself, and for another challenge why not try “spend 30 days without using any tech”
@@ryanabitter did the covid stimulus check influence prices in the US for a while or nothing at all? Because while I do like the idea of UBI and all the other stuff, I'm afraid it will just increase prices in the end making it obsolete
Lack of protein is a problem here. For 1$ a day i will go with egg fry rice, curry rice, sweet egg sushi even bakery like waffle if topping is not too fancy Cost under 0.3$ / meal ... It's still lack of vegetables but better than instant noodles ...
If you learn the tips and tricks of restaurants you can stretch your food budget a bit. My husband loves and hates that I do that. In our freezer there are several bags of frozen vegetable scraps, chicken bones, and seafood scraps for broth. A whole chicken is cheaper per pound than the parts so i tend to buy a whole chicken break it down and plan meals around it. I’ve also learned to make my own buttermilk, yogurt, granola and other kitchen staples. I’m weird and resourceful.
A few pointers that could have been helpful.. You can buy both toothpaste and toilet paper at Dollar Tree for a dollar a piece (any quantity.) Also, cubed steak and ham steak could have been cost effective added ingredients to your rice and beans.
I live in england and when I was a student I had no money, I used to buy two tins of beans and a loaf of bread a week and split the tin of beans into a third everyday with one or two bits of bread. Only eating one meal a day of course and sleeping for most of the day as it was too painful to get up and move around being hungry.
Ramen noodle packets. $1 for 5 packets at my dollar store. When I had no money & was going through a rough time, it really helped me a lot. $3 for 15 packets, $1 for a loaf of bread, $1 16 pack of slice cheese, $1 for bologna $1 peanut butter. Oddly enough, my weekly budget was $7 a week. But it got me through. 💪🏽
I would love to see a video where challenge dude talks about how much these challenges have changed his life. Has it changed his views on anything? Has it made certain things harder or easier? That kinda stuff. It would be interesting. Maybe like a “season finale” kinda thing
Working full time at a part time gas station job with bills way more than I make, while I may have more than 30 bucks post bills, the 50 or so bucks I have left (after my weekly paychecks) is spent on gas and food. (And the living in a car thing I did from ages 17-19) so this vid hit home. I just hope I can get a better paying job one day so this video isn’t, almost, a visualization of my day to day. But thanks for the money tips on how to shop xD
What part of Argentina are you from? I worked a few months in Buenas Aires, but had planned to visit again, but some other areas more in the countryside. Thank you if you find the time and patience to answer. PS: Great name headshot. Retired US Infantry here.
@@geoffwalters3662 buenos aires is the capital, in any other of the 22 provinces, except someones, there are people living in tough situations, the minimum wage is just a 100 dollars and 10% of the people are unemployed, mostly the poor people live in poor provinces or in some neighborhoods in buenos aires in my personal situation, im not poor, but i still live in a tough situation because if youve got a business in argentina, youve gotta pay lots of taxes, theres 165 taxes in argentina and that money the government gives it to the 10% of unemployed people and also to the people that have a low paid job, the unemployed people will never attempt to get a job cause then they will be bombarded with taxes and no one wants to invest in argentina cause its very risky Weve got a nice country to visit, but youve gotta know which parts visit and which ones not
I have done that while living in Thailand. You would be surprised how far a dollar can last but there are certain rules, I guess you can call them to get the full benefit. 1) whatever it is you love if it's US born and bred give it up you just adopted whatever it is the locals eat everyday. 2) those shopping malls with the clothes you like, give those up too you are shopping at a market from now on for your clothes. 3) this applies if you are working as a teacher of some kind, lower your standard of living and settle for whatever your school gives you. If it's a shack that's barely livable flex those carpenter skills and make it livable. 4) learn the language, if you can't get a local gf or just friends who are local they come in handy in an emergency. 5) take advantage of bus systems it's not greyhound or airline travel but it will get you to wherever you want to go. Long story short it is humbling living under a 1$ budget while giving up what you are use to but it does change your perspective on things and gives you a better understanding how people in those countries really feel about it. This episode makes it sound like it's intolerable but actually it's quite the opposite when you consider the fact to a lot of folks around the globe that's just normal life and they smile everyday. I have even visited countries like Philippines where even if they are doctors or lawyers they will voluntarily live that way not because it comes natural but because the way they see it it means more money for their children and their future. It's an odd way of thinking for us in countries like the US but it does highlight how we tend to take everything for granted. Are we the best country in the world because of this? Depends what is meant by best, if you mean our standard of living the fact we don't have to live that way despite it's plusses then sure you can draw that conclusion. If you mean best by can we be content knowing we take so much for granted arguably not. It's one of those questions where it depends on how you look at it and compared to what.
Hey, you’re back! I’ve missing these challenges so much. Is the girlfriend going to be a part of another challenge? Don’t get me wrong, you’re great, but it’s fun to have her perspective on the matter. Stay safe, you two. We want challenges, but not at the expense of your health and well-being.
Where did he participate in this challenge? I suggest that he looks up free churches and universities that have food pantries, some will even deliver. When you been placed in this position before you will find so many helpful resources. I know its an abunance of people that need help but sometimes people are afraid to look or ask or maybe unable to get help. Im so thankful that in my area there are programs in place to help others less fortunate or having trouble making ends meet. I hope more people and places offer help.

In India i tried it and was able to eat 6 times a day for a dollar + an ice cream the reason is In India food is just way cheaper and organic than in America
The U.S. is highly over price with a lot of things! But I appreciate you all doing the homeless & $1 a day challenge! I know how it is to be homeless! I'm not anymore but It was for a long time! It hurts just thinking about it! Don't take life or little things for granted!
I would have gotten lentils and sprouted them. I found a mountain of beans and lentils. They had carpet powder on them. I sprinkled them in my yard they are growing very fast too.
I love how the last dollar wasn’t even spent for his own needs, rather his loved one. That is so sweet.

I will not eat the bugs, I will not live in the pod, I will not live on a dollar a day, mostly because hyper inflation makes that impossible.
Yep
You don't want to try
Wonder why hyper inflation is a thing… bet this wouldnt be as suspenseful if we added a stimulus check in there… 🤣
No! Some people still eat on a dollar a day. Especially if you get food stamps and don't have kids.
