good call about the juicer, BTB! My mom has been doing Weight Watchers program for years and recently told me about how under their points program (you tally daily points based on a given food... i.e. a donut might be 10 pts of your daily allotment, while a hot dog might be 3 pts, and try to stay below your daily point maximum) fruits and vegetables are ZERO points. You can eat as many as you want and they don't count toward your daily point allotment. BUT, she told me that as soon as you blend them or juice them, they become points... because the machine is doing the work to the food that our stomach is supposed to be doing, as part of the natural digestion process. Like you said, it's a shock to the system and spikes the insulin levels if you liquefy those fruits before eating.

It's actually an outdoor survival tip :P I also wonder how often he actually goes outdoors to use it lol If he was more frugal than me, he wouldn't even have drier lint because he would hang his clothes to air dry >_>
@@AussieMoneyMan white vinegar is great. Use it in the kitchen bathroom. Dont mix with baking soda as it will neutralize the vinegar. Vinegar has a scent so keep in mind that's the smell.
I've worked in restaurants. I try not to think about it and mostly cook my own food. Altho i also worked at a supermarket and you're better off growing your own food lol
Spot-clean the bird poop with a bottle of water and a piece of tissue. Tree sap - avoid parking under trees. You can also wash the car yourself in these coin operated deals once every month or two if you live in an apartment.
True. I think if you just lengthen in between washes you could also save a good sum of money. If possible you could always just wash the car yourself if you ever have free time :D
Better idea for me was to wash my car less frequently. Instead of paying someone $12+ a week. Coin wash car yourself around $3 a month. Then spot clean with wipes if say bird dropping etc. It gives me more satisfaction cleaning my own car as well.
Didn't know Almond Milk was so easy to make. Just Almonds and Water. Might have to try making it now although not really my favorite milk at the store exactly.
Also healthier, since by soaking the almonds into water you will "active" its nutritional goodies: www.huffingtonpost.com.au/2017/07/09/are-activated-nuts-better-for-you_a_23022991/
and doesn't last long in the refrigerator, it will start to turn sour and unpalatable in 2 or 3 days, so you better drink it on the same day you make it.
Just wanna point out that washing your car will extend its life considerably. A clean car isn't necessarily about image, its proper maintenance of machinery. Love your vids.
Seeing my clean car brings me joy. With that said, I don’t wash my car often. When I do, I wash it myself, and I try to use the water collected in my shower while waiting for hot water.
Ditto on no harsh cleaners. I use either those Norwex or e-cloths because they are amazing, the microfibre is so dense. I can’t handle any fragrances either! I think I will start saving dryer lint now. And it really helps to not eat out, that’s something my family and I rarely do because home cooked food is so much better and cheaper! Love your videos. You’re such an awesome soul. Keep it up because your fans love you!
I also hate store bought almond milk but also hate the effort of soaking almonds and then straining. So I found out that you can make almond milk by blending 1 tablespoon raw almond butter per cup of water. Tastes just like fresh almond milk you make with full almonds but there is no leftover pulp! I make my own raw almond butter in the food processor once a month and then i make almond milk on demand whenever i need it. Trader joe’s also has inexpensive raw almond butter you can buy
BeatTheBush not really. I use a vitamix and blend on high for 45 seconds. You can strain it if you want but it’s pretty smooth i don’t think it would catch much
I make my own household cleaning supplies. As the others actually make the air pollution in your house very high Look up or into toxic house and it might scare you away from this supplies.
what I use to clean surfaces at home is just vinegar and water, 1 part white vinegar and 4 parts water. Works good on stains and leaves no smell behind once it evaporates.
I don’t bother washing my car anymore. Where I live now the sprinkler hits it in the carport a few times a week an leaves it dirty again. I used to be very picky about this but have given up because it always has water spots on it. 😕 Definitely prefer the big mic out of your face. Looks clear and calm again lol. 👍🏼
If you're talking about the green spray of Simple Green, it is concentrated. You have to dilute it in a gallon of water, not just use it straight from the bottle. Why is it in the bottle to begin with? Idk.
Great video! Love the restaurant tip, can buy a whole week’s worth of fresh groceries for the cost of a restaurant bill. Juicing however, can be effectively used to substitute taking synthetic vitamin pills and the pulp can be easily used for other meals/snacks.
If you are interested in your health, learn more about juicing. A good rule of thumb is: Juice your vegetables and eat your fruit. You can add a piece of fruit to vegetable juice for a hint of sweetness, but do not disregard this valuable method of getting more macro and micronutrients in your body. Furthermore, get a good quality single auger or vertical juicer from Omega or Tribest. You'll be glad you did.
I chose my car to be silver, just so I don't have to wash it as much cuz it's harder to tell that it's dirty compared to other colors. Black and White car colors shows the dust really well.
You might want to invest in a magic bullet blender. It turns the whole fruit and vegetables including the pulp and fiber into a thick shake. Delicious and very filling. I know you eat mostly fruit and vegetables. The lapel mic sounds very good.
Toilet bowl cleaner can add up over time. I've often used a bit of dish soap and a capful of bleach. A soft scour pad and it's clean and sanitized inside! Likewise, you can make a spray bottle from the same ingredients with water for wiping hard surfaces. Costs only a few cents to clean your general areas.
Giving up video games has gave me so much more time to learn things like how to make more money. Thank you for reaffirming my reason why I gave up gaming all day long.
Very interesting & makes one consider purchases you can just not make. I’ve found that a number of things that are supposedly more convenient or better than any previous type of product don’t deliver as advertised!
Something I do to help bring down cost of almond milk is to use half oat meal and half almonds. You can also make milk from just oats but I prefer the taste of Almond milk. Also I add a little sweetener like honey or agave.
I agree with you wholeheartedly. I am also in the process of not bringing in any more of certain types of consumables. I just stopped buying a lot of stuff, I buy food of course, but through trying to get my life sorted, I have discovered that I have a crap ton of lotions, soaps, and cleaners. Like even today I found ANOTHER HAND LOTION under some socks on my dryer. I will not buy lotion for a year or two. On top of that, I apparently went through like a skin mask phase, and now I have to schedule to give myself spa day just to get through all of those products I have an over abundance of. I have come to believe that we need to fully experience the consequences of our purchasing decisions but forcing ourselves to use the products we actually buy. Using something once or two and not using anymore doesn't help us remember the next time we see it and it sounds cool only to find out, oh yeah I already bought it and I stopped using it because I didn't like it. Using it completely will sear it into your mind your opinion of that product so you never make that mistake ever again. Or you have used the product enough to see its full benefits if the benefits only appear after consistent use. You can't lose by being more knowledge and informed about the things in your possession. But of course don't use things that are actively harmful to you.
problem with not cleaning your car itleast not in canada, is the salt/winter destroys the bottom causing rust really fast destroying your car(investment). i would say itleast wash it with a hose at home
I don't use toilet paper anymore since I started saving. When I go into Taco Bell to steal their hot sauce I just take a bunch of napkins home with me. Of course that's usually on the way to Walmart were I steal my hair supplies..
@@ScrollTD whether or not the opportunity cost is worth it, especially in this case, is subjective. For me in my personal life I find that it is definitely not negligible. Moneyology is a term I thought of meaning the interdisciplinary study of economics, finance, and accounting (notwithstanding others perhaps using moneyology prior to me to mean something completely different, as i later found out) Training MMA taught me at a young age there are benefits to mixing skills especially related ones.

Opportunity cost is TIME. Really depends what you do with it. If you do a lot, then it will cost you a lot. If you do nothing, it still costs you the time but you could be doing a lot with it.
Vitamix > Juicer With Vitamix, you can blend a whole fruit and retain all of the nutrients. The juicer just leaves you the juice and sugar, and you lose nutrients in the pulp.
i don't buy windshield wash- winter or summer blend for my vehicles...i make my own with water, Dawn dish-soap and vinegar for summer...in winter i add a little rubbing alcohol to keep from freezing...works great. Been doing this for over 25 years now. i re-use my slightly used paper towels in the garage for oils and clean my hands. When my hands get really dirty, muddy and there's no water around...i just piss on my hands....feels great and greater in winter to warm hands...one of the perks of being a man.
Oh wow......glad I watched to the end. I had no idea about the lint dryer fire starter. We have fires a lot in the summer (we live in the mountains). Always thought there should be a use for that much lint, although I air dry a lot these days. Thanks!
Fire starter - I use my junk mail and old bills as a fire starter. Since I don't have a shredder this method doubles as a way to shred personal information. The biggest problem I have with using my lint is that my clothing has a lot of synthetic fabrics so my lint contains plastic fibers that I do not want to burn. If not for the synthetic fibers, I would probably compost most of my family's lint.
Tho juicers do give u a higher concentration of sugar, these are natural sugars vs sugars that are processed which should be ok for most people who are not diabetic as long as you aren't over doing it. The benefits you get from natural juice is something I wouldn't skip on. You won't get as much nutrients by trying to eat all those fruits and vegetables. Also when I juice it is mainly vegetables and fruits just so it doesn't taste bad.
I saved $500/year on car washes by switching to hand washing. Only takes 30 minutes a week to wash and dry too. But that's only useful info if you care about a clean car lol. My only criticism of never washing your car is that its bad for the exterior and wheels which is bad for resale which isn't frugal. Unless you are driving it until its time for the crusher.
Especially with cell phones. Carriers want you to upgrade every 2 years if you're on a contract. I recommend paying off your device, then just setting aside a little cash every month. I started saving $25/month for a new cell phone even though the one I have is pretty new. In 2 years that will be $600 if I want to get something better, or $1200 in 4 years. It's nice to have the freedom to do what I want, when I want instead of being bound to what the carrier is offering.
You should review the Acorns app. I’m not the biggest fan but it’s shaping up to be the main “app-investing” product out there. Even CNBC has a partnership with them. Love the vid BTB!
Okay I do wash my car because it has a really beautiful paint job and it is something I don’t mind spending 5-10$ on. Video games I have reduced my spending on dramatically over the past 3 months. My goal isn’t to spend any more money on games this year. One thing I am having difficulty with though is processed foods. I live alone for example, and always want something convenient because I feel my time is scarce. Processed foods are quick, cheap and relatively tasty. What are 5-7 meals that are non processed, but affordable and quick to make? I can change in a heart beat but just need some direction. I really enjoyed that meal video you did a while back.
It's called guar gum and it's plant based and works as an emulsified. It's in ice cream, too.I agree with the others that not washing your car can cost you in the long run by damaging your paint or even rusting. In my stated, they use lots of salt in the winter and if we don't wash our cars regularly, our cars will definitely be damaged. Do you mind if I ask how your chose your name, Beat the Bush?
I sort of disagree with the car wash. If you are in a state that uses salt on the roads, you should wash your car. Its going to start rusting no matter what, but at the very least you can slow it down a bit.
Keeping a car washed and waxed is an important part of maintenance. My 10 year old car is rust-free, a real feat here in the Midwest. My parents had to scrap a vehicle because it was rusted out to the point it was unsafe, even though it was mechanically fine. Washing and waxing a car costs less than buying a new car. Don't be penny wise and pound foolish.
Thanks for the vid BTB. The mic sounds great. I wanted to ask you if your almonds are roasted or raw. Just went back to your almond milk tea video but you didnt specify that in it (or maybe I didnt catch it). Maybe if you said the brand then I can research and get something similar.
I wonder if I missed it but do you cut your own hair? I've been doing it for a while now and it's saving me a lot of money. Currently planning on buying a nice clipper so I can keep doing it with a better quality Even now using a cheap one, people wonder how I did it so well myself
I noticed, and you may not be aware of this, but you use "whatnot" a lot. You also may want to look up the pronunciation of "lapel." I liked this video, and the mic sounds great.
I disagree on the car washing I do think the car needs to be washed and waxed properly every so often. Otherwise the dirty and sunlight will damage the car paint work which is very expensive to fix.

You should wash your car a few times a year even just doing it yourself bird crap and acid and chemicals in rain can damage paint.
If you live in winter climates, washing your car is essential because it helps combat corrosion caused by salt underneath the vehicle.
Yea, washing and waxing your car protects the paint which in turn protects the frame underneath it from rusting

I saved $500/year on car washes by switching to hand washing. Only takes 30 minutes a week to wash and dry too. But that's only useful info if you care about a clean car lol. My only criticism of never washing your car is that its bad for the exterior and wheels which is bad for resale which isn't frugal. Unless you are driving it until its time for the crusher.
Good money saving tips 👍💸💰
It's okay to skip generations of gadgets. HD is still a good quality for online videos
Especially with cell phones. Carriers want you to upgrade every 2 years if you're on a contract. I recommend paying off your device, then just setting aside a little cash every month. I started saving $25/month for a new cell phone even though the one I have is pretty new. In 2 years that will be $600 if I want to get something better, or $1200 in 4 years. It's nice to have the freedom to do what I want, when I want instead of being bound to what the carrier is offering.
=D Depends on the need too I think. I wont be honey badgering anyone if they use it daily to make money while doing that upgrade yearly.
Last tip is genius.
I agree. Avoid restaurants and processed foods.
Yes, I don't buy restaurants anymore .... 2:59
I like the new setup very much. Less cuts, slower talking, good audio quality. 👍 Slow talking appears trustworthy and intelligent.
Car wash is important during winter season in order to wash salt of the car.
It’s a good idea to use a car wash just a couple times a year. It washes the undercarriage which keeps rust from damaging the car frame.
Warranties!
love these vids!!!
=D
Both sound great but I imagine the hands/stand free option has many more uses.
Very cool video, keep up the good work👍🏻
Sounds good. Thanks for the vid
How about diluting your cleansers with water? That way whenever you spray the chemical won't be so strong.
You should review the Acorns app. I’m not the biggest fan but it’s shaping up to be the main “app-investing” product out there. Even CNBC has a partnership with them. Love the vid BTB!
I love the dryer lint idea!
=D
Okay I do wash my car because it has a really beautiful paint job and it is something I don’t mind spending 5-10$ on.
Video games I have reduced my spending on dramatically over the past 3 months. My goal isn’t to spend any more money on games this year.
One thing I am having difficulty with though is processed foods. I live alone for example, and always want something convenient because I feel my time is scarce. Processed foods are quick, cheap and relatively tasty. What are 5-7 meals that are non processed, but affordable and quick to make? I can change in a heart beat but just need some direction. I really enjoyed that meal video you did a while back.
Love the content bro, keep it up!
Very Informative video
Thank you!
Good video, worth thinking about.
Altho to be fair, if done correctly, the dishes at a restaurant will be cleaner than what your dishwasher does unless you hand wash.
What did you use to record this video? or most of your previous videos? Did you use your Go Pro?
It's called guar gum and it's plant based and works as an emulsified. It's in ice cream, too.I agree with the others that not washing your car can cost you in the long run by damaging your paint or even rusting. In my stated, they use lots of salt in the winter and if we don't wash our cars regularly, our cars will definitely be damaged. Do you mind if I ask how your chose your name, Beat the Bush?
Who decided that?
I hope you don't get it mixed up
I sort of disagree with the car wash. If you are in a state that uses salt on the roads, you should wash your car. Its going to start rusting no matter what, but at the very least you can slow it down a bit.
Excellent video 👍
That’s when u get a gas mask
When ur using cleaners
Very informative tools
=D
I love not washing the car! Hahaha
I use to juice but now I peel and blend. Orange juice for instance peel 2 oranges add water blend.
Keeping a car washed and waxed is an important part of maintenance. My 10 year old car is rust-free, a real feat here in the Midwest. My parents had to scrap a vehicle because it was rusted out to the point it was unsafe, even though it was mechanically fine. Washing and waxing a car costs less than buying a new car. Don't be penny wise and pound foolish.
You sound Great !!
Are you filming with an iPhone with the lapel mic or a different devise?
I use a big camera for the video.
Thanks for the vid BTB. The mic sounds great. I wanted to ask you if your almonds are roasted or raw. Just went back to your almond milk tea video but you didnt specify that in it (or maybe I didnt catch it). Maybe if you said the brand then I can research and get something similar.
I used both but I like raw ones more.
Thank you.
I wonder if I missed it but do you cut your own hair?
I've been doing it for a while now and it's saving me a lot of money.
Currently planning on buying a nice clipper so I can keep doing it with a better quality
Even now using a cheap one, people wonder how I did it so well myself
I noticed, and you may not be aware of this, but you use "whatnot" a lot. You also may want to look up the pronunciation of "lapel." I liked this video, and the mic sounds great.
I use thing-a-ma-gig or whatchamacallit as well. And get this, I am finishing a degree in Applied Linguistics. 😂😂
@@KathyHagle I remember using some old jargon with my friend, we could laugh just from wording the situation :D
I noticed, and you may not be aware of this, but your name is the same as Marvel comic book writer, Stan Lee.
I think he is aware. In an earlier video I commented on the same thing.
He even answered my comment!!
I never hear him use "whatnot" a word I hate btw and I would of noticed.
You can use your juicer to make almond milk
1) Restaurants have to pass health codes checks. 2) Not washing your car will cause your paint to wear away and eventually rust.
They might pass when someone is looking. My car is 18 years old, no rust.
Playing video games is just something to have fun. You don't always have to be productive. That's why we have sports, theatre, cards, games.
I disagree on the car washing I do think the car needs to be washed and waxed properly every so often. Otherwise the dirty and sunlight will damage the car paint work which is very expensive to fix.
Interesting. Something different than what I’d usually watch.
i had a cleaner like that. i had to just throw it away. love your vids. thanks
I just pour it out to use instead of the spray. But once it's all gone, I wouldn't buy any of it.
