I'm sleeping like a homeless, eating 1 meal a day (60 pack of noodles in one month already), trying to replace all my food with water, riding a bike 17 miles rather than buy a car so I could save up some money to go to college. My life is in hell but I will not give up, I'm pursuing my dream. I want to become a M.D and with that dream, I'm willing TO DO ANYTHING! Your Vid gave me an big encourage after a long day.
@@aytay2051 No u, sharing one's life is not attention seeker, going against that is. Just wait till the moment you struggle in life and even don't have the guts to share it.
Damn man. I remember seeing that “lambo at 26” video years ago. Refound your channel on accident when browsing for Supra content. Loved this story. Earned my sub. Not that you need it anymore :)
man, this story is kinda sad, but it's also inspirational, because it just shows that no matter how bad things get, if you're determined, you WILL succeed. and that's a really powerful message to put out to millions of people. people who sometimes doubt themselves, and feel like failures, you never truly fail until you give up. you never abandon your dreams, because with enough motivation, and determination, and hard work, these dreams can become a reality. i can't wait to see the Gallardo and Gladiator 6x6 return to the channel! that's gonna be exciting!
Update 2023: He’s built his dream house, he’s got a girlfriend, he’s got 2 Aventador’s, a Murcielago m, Bugatti, 10 other super cars, and he’s living his best life ❤
Stradman... I'm sure you hear this a lot, but what an inspiration! I've seen your videos here and there in the past, and I have to admit that sometimes I felt jealous.... But man you just seem so real and down to earth, that I really just have to say congrats! It's snowing today here in UT... Can I take you skiing?
Hey James, just wanted to send you a shout. My name is Josh and I am a combat vet diagnosed with PTSD. I've been a subscriber since damn near the beginning of your channel and definitely part of "the like squad". I wanted to say thank you!! Needless to say, I've had some dark days; but your positivity, enthusiasm, and passion for what you do has helped me on more than one occasion. Keep living your dream
Wow! To share something so personal, I am just blown away!! You have come so far in life and you are an inspiration thousands of people. This video is so inspiring, I wanna be just like you! You are the guy! Stay safe Strad! So proud!
Man youre awesome you never gave up if i was in your situation i would say man this is fu**** you never gave up and i admire that you went from 10k to 3m amazing keep it up
Love the videos local ut boy and live in the same neighborhood makes my day when I see the strand man in one of your cars you have came so far ..!! P.s you know I picked up some merchandise so I could have a chance at the baby Mack just think you wouldn’t even have to leave the neighborhood and the content we could keep making with it ..!! Fingers crossed !!!
LOVE THE STORY!! It’s a passion for us, take my channel for example, I’ve got 35k subs almost 20 million views and STILL have NOT made a dime from it, but money is not the driver, it is the passion I have for cars that keeps me going. Hopefully one day I’ll be monetizing it. 🤞🤞
this man has been doing RU-vid for over 8 years now he used to live in his hold Audi tt for 50 days only making 5$ an hours, and now, he has 40 supercars.
Strad is another one of the few RU-vidr's who is genuine and really put in hard work on his own to be successful. Always happy to see him reach his goals.
Brother that was an awesome video probably the best and most real video I've ever seen from you congratulations on from where you came from. It's true never give up on your dreams
He started from the bottom by homeless, living in a Audi TT,now he's here by living in a lavish lifestyle in a Bugatti and a epic mansion keep it up Strad and John Cena 20 years phrase "never give up"
This is the real Stradman not the one we see most of the time. Yapping about things he loves. Saying "Views upon views. Once it's gone it's gone." To all haters and lovers alike I LOVE STRADMAN!! 😍
Wow... I will never EVER regret clicking on this video! Already was watching your videos while I was younger but never knew the full story behind everything. You are such an inspiration for so many people and deserve every bit of succes you are having right now 👏🙌🙏
you have one of the craziest "started from the bottom" stories ive heard (other than maybe tall guy car reviews), especially seeing where you are now. you have been through way more than every other car youtuber who were born rich and their parents paid for their cars to get their start. thats why you have the best channel
After this video: He has sold the R8, wrapped the aventador purple, added many more mods, and bought 3 more cars: a Ford focus RS, Jeep gladiator, and a Toyota supra and is now going to buy a Corvette c8 and might buy a new huge dream house. He has spent lots of money on some of those new cars. Always remember to pursue your dreams!!!
Pursue Dream: How come 1.9 million subscribers has that much money...He is doing something else and he is just lying to make the video as motivational video.
The Story of Living In my Audi TT to buying A Bugatti Veyron. Inspiration 10/10 Btw This Guy used to freak out after Seeing a veyron, and Now He has One. Congrats man
@@5.3yungbhrisss37 STFU you lil pump fan boy. He doesn't even rap. He should be in jail instead of 6ix9ine and Tay K. I bet you don't know nothing about cars.
This Video was HANDS DOWN the best and most meaningful one you have ever made in my opinion. Coming from a person who has gone through similar situations in pursuit of a dream, heading you talk about the struggles you went through in the road to success hit me right in the feels. Pushing past the moments of doubt, the emotional exhaustion, financial hardships, etc. is what separates those who will truly make their dreams come true versus those who most likely won’t. Big up for the Stradman 👍🏽🙂
Unlike most who fast forward, skip around or just switch off while watching RU-vid vids... I too watched it straight thru. May GOD bless you too TaurusBlood.
5 years later you have 1.3 million subscribers and own 4 supercars and are so Generous that you are willing to go down to 3 supercars because you are giving one away
@CAM nigga he's gonna make more than the value of the car. Thats why legally he has to give it away. Sure the person who wins is gonna get lucky af but stradmans just gonna look at it like he sold it.
@CAM Funny thing is no one can afford the $60k+ in taxes and fees for the car. He's offering a $75k buyout for the car, which after taxes will be about $40k.
James I love your channel. You are amazing. Your content is SO entertaining. I have been subscribed for 3 years. Never give up. Also if possible upload more frequently.
Thanks so much Stradman.....2018 was a rough year for me.....Tried the entrepreneurial path...took a bunch of L's, but your story kinda got me back on my feet!!
Alfa oh I recently started a new career at age 40 that paid 12$ less than normal income and I can’t be happier. Yes the $ sucks goat balls but the reward of waking in the morning excited to go to work is a tremendous game changer. Wanna add that my enthusiasm is paying off and the promotions keep coming. Best of luck. Best advice it to push yourself w every breath
It's crazy because I used to see Stradman's beverly hill videos of supercars, Never knew it was him. He used to be pretty much the only one filming supercars in beverly hills. I'm glad you're successful. And Yes, It's always better not to work for someone, Do it for aslong as you need to stop doing it.
You are a rarity. A young kid with a goal an the determination to get it done. I been here since about 4 videos before the layoff. So keep it up an beep beep the haters an let it keep on ripping.
still keep coming back to this, whenever I start to lose my mind... but then I remember your story and it's just so inspiring that I have to get back up.
