My 5th Year Anniversary on YouTube . How was it for me? 

Mike its your personality is what makes me watch.

Congratulations GIV ! .....YOU are now a Hollywood and Venice Celebrity! We demand a star on the walk on fame

You have a good heart GIV! 99% of viewers know that! That 1% you can never make happy! Best of Luck in the future! 💕💕

People tend to gravitate toward positive vibes. Your personality gives off those type of vibes. You seem like a really genuine person. No "BS" if you know what I mean. I really enjoy your videos. 1 million subs right around the corner. Thanks Mike, & happy 5th 👍

You dancing with Tico was the highlight of this video for me :) Congrats on 5 years on the Tube!!

This is incredible news GiV!….It just goes to show that anything is possible if you stay determined and never lose faith…Thanx so very much for all the amazing content and sharing your life with us!!

Way to go Mike! Thanks for entertaining us for the last 5 years. I feel like I know you, your Mom and vour friends in Germany and in the U.S. You are a good guy with a big heart ❤️. Thanks for making our world a little bit brighter and a little bit better. 😊

Same here. I Really Like Michael ! I like his face, his voice, his accent, his wonderful attitude toward all things, the things and places He shares with us. At the last full moon, I drove to Venice Beach from Charlotte, spent 3 days on the boardwalk, approached Michael in his store, asked for a picture of him, his buddy there then took several pics of us. I received one of his GIV stickers from him personally. He put his arm around me like he really meant it. He's the most loveable guy I know of. What a great human being. I worry about his finances. Mere views don't generate revenues, only watching ads do. That Daisy appears sometimes isn't a bad thing and won't cause me to deprive myself of Michaels video's. Hey Michael, Thanks for your hospitality last week, your time, your kindness, the pics and the conversation. Keep doing what you do. I donated to your coffee fund today, Thanks

Glad you kept the misspelling - made me smile Mike - congrats on 5 years!

You are a very likeable guy doing cool stuff Michael. And you are also a person that a lot of us can mirror ourselves in. This is for instance way I am watching your videos, here on the island of Madeira, where I am living at the moment.

Congratulations GIV! I am proud of you! You entertain and deserve every penny you make on RU-vid! Keep it up and forget the haters!

Hey GIV. I love you man. Your so real and you speak from the heart. I love ur content. It's great!

CONGRATULATIONS MIKE🎉 I'VE BEEN WATCHING FROM THE BEGINNING 😮 5 YEARS ALREADY! HERE'S TO MANY MANY MORE 🎉💝💝💝

Thank you so much for everything Mike! Congratulations! I'm just a small vlogger in Michigan. You have a lot going for yourself and I wish you the best

Congratulations! My husband and I enjoyed your content so much. He was ill for a long time and he passed away a couple of months ago. But you and all your friends gave us hours of things to talk and laugh about, which eased the difficult days. I hope to meet you and thank you in person. Keep doing what you do!!

Happy 5th anniversary on RU-vid Mike,from Philippines 🇵🇭🇺🇸🇩🇪

Happy 5th !!!!! Love watching your channel. GIV is the man.

Congrats!! Your a hard working, interesting, humble guy. I love your content. Thank you for 5 yrs.❤

Michael !! You've said it perfectly...just be you, do what your heart says....so far so GREAT !!!!

Congratulations Mike, two weeks ago, my Japanese friend and l went to your store in Venice Beach to meet you, we follow you and we're a fan of your videos. You've a great personality, we still hope to meeting you at your store or maybe in one of your filming, take care🎉🎉🎉🎉

Congrats GIV, your content is entertaining & keeps me waiting for your next episode. Your really not alone we are just not on site when your filming.

Congrats GIV ! I never get tired of your positive attitude despite the fact you are in the middle of chaos :)

Congrats! Totally awesome milestone! Lots of love from NYC! ❤❤❤ Clearly what you’re doing works. It resonates. I’ve told you many times how much your content impacts me in my own life since I have been ill, disabled, and homebound long term - you make me laugh, see things I’m unable to see, watch some creativity (I’ve always been into photography, videography, art, music, and all types of cultural things), learn some new information, get to understand some cool people (both your friends and other people wherever you roam), and so much more. You always speak to us like you’d speak to anyone else in your life and always strive to be genuine. Your content just resonates with me, and it clearly is relatable to thousand of other people. Whoever doesn’t get it or doesn’t like it can take a hike, but I assure you, the majority of us are here to stay so long as you keep posting videos. I hope I get well enough to be able to travel and meet you some day. I’d love to thank you in person! Thanks for everything you do!

Love the new sign! Congrats on 5 years Mike! I need to watch your first videos.

Congrats Mike for being on RU-vid 5 years. Been watching pretty much all your videos from the last 3 years. Hear to another 5+ more great years in RU-vid.

Do what you do Mike!!! Happy 5th!

Congratulations GIV!! Hubby & I have been watching you since your first 30k!! Loved watching you through the lockdown and until now! We don’t miss a video! We don’t like to watch a lot of the same stuff but we can always watch you together. Keep up your great hard work! I have a pic in front of your store. We worked as an Audience Page and talent escorts on award shows but if we meet you I’d probably be more star struck than seeing a lot of other celebrities lol Best wishes to you!

Congratulations GIV! You are a Hollywood celebrity star, your dream came true. Love your snap shot pictures in familiar spaces. Your personality keeps us tuning in, and your unique perspective of simple things and your POSITIVE ATTITUDE is key. Thank you 🇺🇲

Congrats on 5 years... Many more to come... Thanx

Happy 5th anniversary GIV I can only speak for myself but I am happy that you create what you feel like doing that day. For me it feels like a honest update - the good, the bad, and the ugly.

Happy 5th! I like that you show the mix of real life, the local characters, the Hollywood glitz and pop culture history and the trips to see your mom and where you came from.

Don't be defensive. Part of being a public personality is that people are going to criticize you. And some of the advice might actually be good. (For instance, Daisy and the background music should both go.) Love the channel overall, especially when you are in Germany.

Congrats Mike! You're the best old man! You are so good to Miss Daisy, your mom, and all your loony buddies on the beach. Great show! We are watching you everyday! Congrats again Gman!!

Congratulations on your 5-year anniversary! 🎉❤ 😃 I’ve been watching all of your videos. Wishing for many more years of your interesting and fun videos. BTW, That was good dancing, …you too, Teco! I’m half German, I love your German accent. 🎉 God bless. ❤️ 🙏
