Coachella Weekend 1 2024 was a blast and I hope you enjoy this video! We interviewed a ton of cool people (some paid $40-50k for the weekend) and it was so interesting asking people what they do for a living and for their advice. Is this tent rental worth $11,000? Let me know in the comments haha. And if you're interested in my favorite finance and business tools, check out the links in the description (this will help support the channel and make videos like this one free). Thank you and have an awesome day! -Charlie

Thank you for this. I turned 25 yesterday and the only real things I have to show for myself are a decent savings (nothing compared to these people in the video) an old car, and a high school diploma. Birthdays have not been fun for me as I've gone through my 20's, wondering and stressing about my path in life & that I'm doing nothing with my life but hosting part time at a restaurant. But I did just attend Coachella for the first time this year which is what interested me in this video because Coachella was pretty pricey, just for the bare minimum experience. I'm glad I watched this video because it sparked something in me (also probably the fact that I'm now 25) to take control and start thinking, learning, and growing. Hopefully I can keep this determination and motivation. Good luck to all of you that even slightly feel stuck in life like me. We are enough, and we're doing just fine where we are. We've gotten this far. I got this, you got this, we got this :)

I hate when they say “work hard” as advice for people who are poor….we’ve BEEN working hard since we were legally able to, probably to a higher degree than some of them. I know it just sounds like complaining but it’s way easier to ‘invest in yourself’ and double down. And be patient when you have a safety net (trust fund, well-off supportive parents, etc) most Americans can’t afford a $1000 emergency, let alone take off months or years off to pursue entrepreneurship. Working hard isn’t advice, it’s a a reality for most people.

One tip that I can give for anyone that could use it, if you do not have an upbringing from your parents or even if you do, PLEASE finish high school for one, if you did not have the greatest GPA to give you a head start into college, take the community college route if you are not certain in what you want to pursue. If you are able to commit to a 4-year university, COMMIT. You will thank yourself in the future if you focus extremely hard for 4 years. Advice that I wish I had gotten and followed years ago from my dad is, "Sometimes you need to sacrifice 5+ years, so you can get 30 in the future. You can't pursue your passion if you're broke." To take from this, sometimes it can be best for you to take the "safe and secure" money making job. For example, I was above average at math and I wish I committed to finish Accounting because it is a safe, high base-pay career. As a current college student, your success is determined on how well you can learn and retain information. Learn and develop studying skills and methods. Live your life for you and not to prove to others what you have.

Most of these people don’t seem to be self made starters like they’re trying to project. I wonder how the flipping houses lady was able to afford investing a million dollars into a project. Maybe it was her ceo divorcee. Sometimes hardwork is not enough, the circumstances have to be right too. Some of this advice is good. Go for your goals, entrepreneurship is not for everyone, fear can hold you back. The difference is these people likely have a huge cushion to fall back on if their effort fails. The violinist lady seemed to be the most realistic. You’re not hearing from people who started a business, failed, lost everything, worked hard, turned it around and now are at coachella. Spending over 4k for a single person including airfare for this festival is insane to me. They’re free to have fun, but coachella definitely has an elitist side to it.

Traveled with 4 friends so one ticket was bought by a friend. We traveled from Vegas this year because I just got transferred….hope that helps the average person looking to attend. And I’m in my 40’s no age shaming with the regulars. Always have a great time in the general area. This year the gates didn’t let you line up you literally had to be there about 1-2 before 9a any earlier and it would had been pointless because there was no waiting .

dear USA Festival Lovers. If a Festival has a VIP Area and you cannot bring your own foods and drinks and there is zones and you get controlled more than an airport, you have no idea what a music festival is. The best european festivals do not have this. Yes we have weird festivals as well, but the good one allow to bring your own food and drinks everyhwere and no controlls and frisking between camping and concerts. An VIPs, run away if you see that option. It means Festival will try to make it right for everyone and nobody happy.

But they seen to think that the vibes and the overall connection to people really doesn't happen at Coachella, I've attended parties all over the world since the 1990s and Coachella seems to be mostly music and artists I would never want to see, there is nothing underground about these events, and therefore nothing fun about it. I want dark underground rooms or large clubs that understand how to book underground artists. But open air events with people that pay for a sub par experience.
