Absolutely, 💯 re the Aid mentality..Which is destroying African Americans....The majority of Blacks in America watch the destruction of our people with indifference and snobbery.. Another group (non caucasian) has set up successful, thriving lucrative cities for themselves and their people..From Janitors to school, schools boards, employment, housing, education etc etc. No one gave them money..Their people with resources used their resources to make these successful cities.. Black People should use their example and do the same
About the driver who claims Cynthia made him miss prayer. Does he understand that by having acquired you all as a regular customer, his prayers had been answered?
Everyone in the world blames Americans for EVERYTHING. I have lived in 13 countries, married into a Nigerian family, our people are the worst! I already know that when I encounter most Africans from certain countries, everything is already my fault 😂 it's sad.
I love you guys channel. Im from the US and usually in Gambia 2mos a year. Would love to meet you guys one day. Please stay away from american politics though... If there is a lesser of 2 evils im voting blue. My body, my choice. Keep spreading light! God bless!💙
Guyana is a "RACIST/APARTHEID" country by the present installed government - PPP and the "One Guyana" concept is INDIAN superiority. POVERTY /DAILY BLACKOUTS/OIL MONEY ENJOYED BY FRIENDS/FAMILY AND FAVORITES. CORRUPTION FROM THE TOP TO THE BOTTOM. Guyanese living in fear-unable to speak up because you would be brutalized by the police force controlled by the PPP, and to make matters worst it's your own kind "NEGROES" that's doing it to you.
It seems as if they have no work ethics at all. Maybe one of the reasons Africa is so far behind. I had a problem similar while visiting Zambia during COVID. I asked my driver to pick me up at 8am to go get tested for COVID; my flight leaves at noon. At 9am, he didn't show up, so I got another driver to take me. When I returned to the hotel just in time to get ready to leave for the airport, he was just showing up. I find them to be extremely unprofessional. I am saying to myself, how can a person have a business and be successful at it, if there is no work ethics and have no respect for someone's time.
Western time is Just that. Africa is super laid back. However for your business and personal networks sync on time and discipline with colleagues. You'll be fine. Africa is not a programmed matrix like the west. Robotic living not. Lol.
@@gibson2675 So you have to get to the airport at a said time to catch a flight; If you don't get there on time, you will miss your flight and consequently pay extra fees. How can anyone not see and understand the urgency.😔 Reason South Africa will always be #1 and the hub of Africa.
Yes, my mom was telling me about the heavy rain you had there. My cousins in Senegal also had the same issues. I totally agree with you on the traffic issues. It is irritating and some of the taxi drivers are crazy. And as a Gambian, I agree with everything you said about The Gambia. Sad, but true.
Most of the Gambian people are scared of the colonizers and will have a attitude to their own people, thank God for our brothers and sisters that are not scared but in the word's of (Bob Marley)stand up for your rights...
Very true 🎉and all these problems can only be initiated by the government and followed through by the citizens and more education is needed . But there’s no gunshots in The Gambia 🇬🇲 🎉
Put some black pepper out for the dogs and garlic ect. out to help for cows ect. Mix different concoctions out to control the live stock, much love to you all...
Greetings BAG Queen and King, I hear you both as the African continent is still recovering from the onslaught of colonialism and Arabism based on books like, Slavery in the Arab World, Tribes, The Destruction of Black Civilization, How Europe Undeveloped Africa and many more books on slavery and mind control on the continent of Africa. The recovery is underway and will take a number of decades to totally recover from the detrimental devastation and affects of Arab and European colonialism. Thanks for sharing.
My fam! Miss you guys. Keep inspiring. Im bringing a lot of my folks from the States to see Gambia in april for the annual cigar week. Im looking forward to them talking to the Bag family and learning more about investing in Gambia. Take care and see you guys soon
You guys are visionaries. You were steps ahead. Now everyone can see BAG is beautiful. And you own it. They are making it harder to leave the plantation and its gonna get worse. UK ending non dorm status. Some Americans even have to give up their citizenships.
A significant issue in Africa is that many individuals have become resigned to their suffering, convinced that there is little they can do to change their circumstances. A considerable number are seeking financial assistance or expecting others to take action on their behalf. Numerous individuals overlook the various opportunities available, despite the fact that foreigners frequently take advantage of them. They reap the benefits. Many individuals in Africa harbor skepticism towards their own continent, often placing their faith in the Western world. A significant number feel that their advancement is contingent upon being in a Western nation, despite the possibility that such opportunities may not be available there.
once again . welcome to africa . ha ha haaaa. funcky . well . i am just glad that you guys are doing fine and well . peace . love and soul . stay blessed yall.😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
This is probably a silly question but is there a news and weather channel to track the heavy rain? You all have the right mindset to handle these issues. Also, the mzungu worship by many Africans is my ultimate pet peeve!!!! It’s the same in America. My cousin’s daughter had a baby recently. She put a picture of the infant on Facebook saying “Welcome to the world white boy!” The baby isn’t even bi-racial. I couldn’t even comment. You all should have a discussion panel with some of those Africans who feel that way. Or a live about this topic so people can call in. Our African brothers need to be educated about the dangers of doing this. It makes these other races a false sense of superiority. I absolutely agree with everything you’re saying!!! I am so angry I can’t convince my adult children to unite and start a business together in Africa!!!! So, Yah willing, I am selling my home in April and moving to the motherland with my 10 year old grandson, one sister, and her 3 sons.
You will e welcome brother, but my advice is mostly African countries are lay back that has been the norm for many generations unlike the so called west where you have to chase behind wealth till the you die? Poverty is everywhere in most African countries but I tell you the people are the most happiest on earth life goes on irrespective of the situation?
Thank goodness you are saying it as it is in my own case it is even worse I have not fully relocated but just building a place to stay Thank you for all and I don’t use those who had fooled me before Please keep doing good work for us God bless
Wifey and I here just laughing through the entire vid personality experiencing each and every issue. I've fired soooo many taxis and so-called handymen. I like many things about Gambia but the profound negatives forces me to contemplate my choices. Thanks for voicing our thoughts.
Hey Rick & Cynthia. Good to see you guys still moving ahead and doing well. Never been to the motherland but hopefully will have a chance to visit in the near future. I been listening to you issues you guys have to face living in the Gambia and thing much of these issues with negligent driving habits can be stopped simply by imposing frequent but small fines on violators and taken their vehicles if they don't pay the fines, that there will stop a lot of that shit, and for pedestrians that obstruct traffic- again small fines or five day in jail, that would boost the cities revenue and perhaps then they can have good streets to drive on. I see it in Europe and wonder, since paving all the streets are too expensive, why don't these poor African nations lay down streets of brick in all the residential areas and just have all the main roads and freeways paved? Bricks, I am sure these African Nations can produce more cheaper
Good Day and I hope all is well with you and family today In Jesus Christ Almighty name Amen 🙏🏾 Thank You All So Much For These Valuable Advice And For I’ve Just Purchased My First Land In Gambia 🇬🇲 And I Really Look Forward To Meeting You All Aquatints God Bless You All 🙌🏾🥰🤗❤️
I’m Nigerian and I agree with everything you have just said. It’s so unfortunate. Africa as a whole needs a brain revamping. What do you sir/ma’am think of the Northern part of Africa? We are just too engrossed in culture and religion (religion, has not done much for Africa, but continues to set us back). How can you be worried about prayer over making money for yourself and family. By the way, y’all looking great!
Do you think and electronic store is a good idea to start in the Gambia? I was thinking of like coming and starting up a post office or something that exports goods into the Gambia.
My boyfriend lives in gambia he from gambia he drives his own taxi even my boyfriend don't like to talk on phone when he drives cause he has to watch what he's doing while he's driving an he did tell me the traffic is really crazy there in gambia
I’m wondering if those taken throughout the Americas and Caribbean were taken for specific reasons. Seems to me they were very much skilled. Skilled in rice farming for the Carolinas, iron work, wood carvings.
All of the imperfection that you see in Africa is an opportunity to make things better maybe they're the way they are because they don't have any competition. This is an opportunity for those who want to do a taxi business.. if you are a African-American you should have come to Africa with some kind of skills to where you don't have to depend too much on the locals to do a certain type of job for you and you don't have to worry about the half done jobs that they do..
To answer your question concerning the embracing and trusting the enemy, it's conditioning that some are better than others especially if they are white skinned people.
I know yall happy being over there . Its gonna be HELL in the US soon. Do your thing there. ****We and you would be happy for ease of donations if you would put a PayPal QRS donation stamp on the bottom right of the screen. Look into that.
Even my boyfriend dog in gambia allways runs off his dog name alaska I'm going to gambia next October but I'm buying a caller with name tag an a runner for he's dog cause I would hate to see his dog get run over cause it's not good for dogs to be running loose an same with other animals

Hey BAG family! I have to agree with you...that traffic is too much, especially at Turn Table and Traffic Light. The "sleeping police" don't make it no better either lol
@@Epicmotivation360 I have a sleeping police story that will have you in stitches. When I came back to the US, I couldn't go over a speed bump without lol. 😂🤣
I’m planning a move to Gambia. I met someone from my country who’s been living there for a few years. I have questions. How do I get a consultation from you?
AA teachings are different then that of the Countinent of Africa. Many AA don't understand when they bring up titles such as Hebrews and Canaanites Africans are unfamiliar with that way of teachings because here in America through Slavery we picked up certain words and beliefs. Many in America know Africas history better then people on the continent. .I'm born in America and slavery didn't allow our ancestors to read or write but we still feel we know more about the Motherland then those who reside there. Especially through the teachers of our enslaver which is where many of our " Titles" came from( Europe). Our religions and it's teachings all were learned by way of Slavery but we don't want to admit that.
Great video, Rick and Cynthia. Here in Florida we had Hurricane Francine. It touched down in Houston on Thursday. We are experiencing flooding throughout the south.
LoL hey yeah it's probably a waste of yall time moving to Africa to grow a garden. I get it you want feel connected to the mother land you can just take a vacation to Africa you could have bought land in Mississippi and be more successful
I'm here in Chicago South side, they are from here West side of Chicago. They was tired of Living here working and killing themselves for someone else,I'm very Happy for them I will be in Ghana 🇬🇭 Next Year Lords Willing ❤❤
I find most hot countries are like that, going nowhere fast, no sidewalks compromise things and animal awareness potholes because of weather i e. Rain, sun and bad materials are a wat of life, the slow pace of life 😅
I wanna ask something to who is from Gambia. In Gambia is there any meaning of wearing ring on right ring finger?? Do people wear ring for fashion or you wear it when you are in relationship, Marriage?
When dealing with contractors, start videotaping yourself with them on your agreements. The video would be the contract agreement and show them the video often, when they start the project, halfway through, and close to the end of the project. Everyone has a cellphone, why not use it for business purposes in The Gambia?
Do you know if a guinea hen(African chicken) farm will be profitable in Gambia ? I'm researching the market for investment opportunities. I know you can see the market because you're present
Please let us not generalise things there is no perfect country in the whole world but I can guarantee that Gambians are very generous and accommodating.
The driving problem exists in places like Ecuador, Colombia, Mexico, etc. It's like a worldwide epidemic. If a person doesn't have a car are there Ubers?
Do people come to the Gambia for the winter, or retirement there? Including people without African heritage? How do you compare The Gambia with Senegal, Ghana and Ivory Coast?
Could it be that they are bread to be that way. Just like you would bread or raise anything, the offspring will even take on the same traits and behavior. That's what the colonizers did to them.
I wonder if these two Westerners know the real history of their Africa and the Wests evil involvement in depth and how it affected people afterwards when the evil took over their countries too. They know about their own suffering but they don't seem to be able to think outside of that
Big shout to you inspiring couple. You have walked the walk. 8 years? Wow. Love peace and blessings to you and your family.
You guys are have such a symbiotic relationship - you are each other's best advocate. It's good to see you again.
How sweet of you, Thank so much ♥️🧡🤎
Rick and Cynthia your driving videos are my favorite 😊. I know it’s a headache for you but I absolutely love watching them.
A great business idea would be for Ex-pats to create businesses that cater to Ex-pats. This way work gets done on time without much delay.
Nice idea. Will they charge accordingly to the Gambia or the western economies? Thank you
@@hassshoban8206 could it be over pricing?

Hey BAG family! I have to agree with you...that traffic is too much, especially at Turn Table and Traffic Light. The "sleeping police" don't make it no better either lol
Lol..the sleeping police is for vehicles to slow down especially late at night 😂
@@Epicmotivation360 I have a sleeping police story that will have you in stitches. When I came back to the US, I couldn't go over a speed bump without lol. 😂🤣
Lmaooooo @ “ No I would never call you again” 😂😂😂😂
I’m planning a move to Gambia. I met someone from my country who’s been living there for a few years. I have questions. How do I get a consultation from you?
That’s that Chi town Elijah Muhammad teachings “Do for self” black man and don’t expect aid from the enemy just what’s owed
I hate how much I appreciate y’all.
Thanks for sharing.
Do you all see yohrse0 returning to the U.S.A. any time soon or the near future?
How is the Arrival Couple ?
I’m not sure they still have ther channel send them a message 🥰
i record everything now
We saw a dead cow on the side of the road covered with voltures near the Monkey Forest 😎
I love juicyvmama way of thinking lols
My boyfriend is really good at taxi he's allways get busy driving taxi in evening an day time he works in his shop
We are a black people but we are two different people they are canaanites we are hebrews do your research see for yourselves 🙏🏿
Please get this misinformation rooted in Greek mythology and history out of here.
AA teachings are different then that of the Countinent of Africa. Many AA don't understand when they bring up titles such as Hebrews and Canaanites Africans are unfamiliar with that way of teachings because here in America through Slavery we picked up certain words and beliefs. Many in America know Africas history better then people on the continent. .I'm born in America and slavery didn't allow our ancestors to read or write but we still feel we know more about the Motherland then those who reside there. Especially through the teachers of our enslaver which is where many of our " Titles" came from( Europe). Our religions and it's teachings all were learned by way of Slavery but we don't want to admit that.
Take that bullshit somewhere else.
You are right😅…..ground zero with no protections.
❤️🖤💚!!!!
Beautiful couple
Great video, Rick and Cynthia. Here in Florida we had Hurricane Francine. It touched down in Houston on Thursday. We are experiencing flooding throughout the south.
What's it like dealing with the Gambian legal system in your business, and the bureaucracy?
LoL hey yeah it's probably a waste of yall time moving to Africa to grow a garden. I get it you want feel connected to the mother land you can just take a vacation to Africa you could have bought land in Mississippi and be more successful
You don't get it though! There is a reason they left the rat race in the US though 😂
I'm here in Chicago South side, they are from here West side of Chicago. They was tired of Living here working and killing themselves for someone else,I'm very Happy for them I will be in Ghana 🇬🇭 Next Year Lords Willing ❤❤
Exactly @@Epicmotivation360
They wanted to move to Africa and that is what they did. I doubt they went to Africa TO grow a garden. They are already successful.
@@sasbridgecloserstudent exactly 💯
They are so divided but they always want Black Americans to accept them all and practice unity with them 😂
I find most hot countries are like that, going nowhere fast, no sidewalks compromise things and animal awareness potholes because of weather i e. Rain, sun and bad materials are a wat of life, the slow pace of life 😅
I wanna ask something to who is from Gambia.
In Gambia is there any meaning of wearing ring on right ring finger??
Do people wear ring for fashion or you wear it when you are in relationship, Marriage?
It was for fashion but nowadays people wear it for marriage.....
@@modouadams8958 People wear it on left ring finger? For Marriage?
When dealing with contractors, start videotaping yourself with them on your agreements. The video would be the contract agreement and show them the video often, when they start the project, halfway through, and close to the end of the project. Everyone has a cellphone, why not use it for business purposes in The Gambia?
Do you know if a guinea hen(African chicken) farm will be profitable in Gambia ? I'm researching the market for investment opportunities. I know you can see the market because you're present
I urge you guys to go and drive in Lagos Nigeria.
I believe you won't spend a single day in Lagos Nigeria before running back to Gambia
Please let us not generalise things there is no perfect country in the whole world but I can guarantee that Gambians are very generous and accommodating.
🤣
🫣👁👁✌🏾❤🙏🏽
The driving problem exists in places like Ecuador, Colombia, Mexico, etc. It's like a worldwide epidemic. If a person doesn't have a car are there Ubers?
Do people come to the Gambia for the winter, or retirement there? Including people without African heritage? How do you compare The Gambia with Senegal, Ghana and Ivory Coast?
👍🏾
Could it be that they are bread to be that way. Just like you would bread or raise anything, the offspring will even take on the same traits and behavior. That's what the colonizers did to them.
Maybe. But at some point you have to grow up and think for yourself. Africans behave like children in many respects.
I wonder if these two Westerners know the real history of their Africa and the Wests evil involvement in depth and how it affected people afterwards when the evil took over their countries too. They know about their own suffering but they don't seem to be able to think outside of that
Is it aging yall ? Whew the stress!
Nah we enjoying life, but if we wer ther in the states yes it would be lots a stress this is fun here 😎🤩😎
