The video shows the Shibuya location, but it, and the Harajuku location are within a 25 minute walk of one another. Gachapons are EVERYWHERE throughout Japan - C-Pla just happens to have a HUGE selection.

1:04 - Question 2
When it comes to language acquisition, I'm focused primarily on trying to get my pronunciation to as-easy-to-understand for locals as possible. Obviously, I'll always have an English-speaker's accent, but there's been a ton of value in finding someone who is a native-speaker of the target language and ask that they be absolutely RUTHLESS with me until I can get as close as I reasonably can in as short a time as possible.
2:19 - Question 3

2:39 - Question 4
The 6-month trip I went on, it was 65% focused on manufacturing-related research and business, 35% focused on the corporate video work.
2:54 - Question 5
For those who also live in Toronto, I get all my Superior Labor stuff from a local small business called WonderPens (wonderpens.ca). I rarely go downtown, but whenever I do, I definitely stop by (and so should you)!
3:28 - Question 6
Don't forget to comment if you agree with me or if you agree with my mother 😂
3:53 - Question 7
Since this is a money-related question, one of the things that I'm most passionate about is encouraging everyone to get out of debt. If you are in debt, or know someone who is in debt, consider checking this out:

5:16 - Question 8
Please do NOT buy any of these books if your self-awareness tells you that you don't enjoy reading and that you'll just spend money for a book or three to collect dust and add to clutter at home, lol. But if you DO read...

5:56 - Question 9
As some of you may know, I originally started this channel to help me stay accountable after visiting the doctor and learning that I was "dangerously pre-diabetic". Thanks to keto and fasting, my bloodwork just 3 months later came back as completely normal (no longer pre-diabetic). Because of that, I no longer drink sugary drinks, hence my beverage breakdown now.
6:14 - Question 10
I'm still learning so I don't feel like I've earned the right to really give KZbin advice, but I will say that if you've been thinking about starting a channel, I 100% think you should!
7:26 - Question 11
I haven't been to Germany since early 2017. I actually went at that time because I was working on a Volkswagen-related project. I can't wait to go back!
7:42 - Question 12
The time I spent consulting in IW was a period of my life I'll never forget. It was a period of growing up, and perhaps, forcefully growing OUT of my delinquent youthful years of being generally an aggressive hothead, where I got to see what REAL suffering at scale was like. It also enabled me to travel quite extensively, but most of all, got to show me that everyone on earth is after the same thing: safety, work that supports self and family, and the fair opportunity to grow.
8:41 - Question 13
Miss my dad. But selfishly, I moreso miss that he didn't get to see that his efforts in providing for me were not in vain. He was killed before I "had my life together", and again, selfishly, I wish he was alive to just know that I'd be alright.

The thing I love about watching your videos is that the content is really personal and really well spoken. Keep up the authentic work, Maurice. Always a pleasure to see you upload a new video

[@marceymanning9059]

I'm really interested in your buying rules. Please make a separate video on that subject. Thanks.

[@barrysanaloginsights]

You are one of the best KZbinrs I've ever seen. Every video (and I mean every), captures my interest, provides excellent actionable tips, and gets me motivated to do something. Many thanks indeed!!

[@wesolowskimatt]

Yoooo... diversity of this channel and your videos is really something special. I really appreciate your honesty and your insights.

[@SeanMarsalis]

Congrats on the feature from Peter McKinnon. All of your content provides incredible value so I hope you see a huge boost as a result.

[@TheRyanGib]

Always impressed by your video style. Keeps me focused the full length of the video but in the off chance i want to skip around you make it easy to do that too. Great work!

[@HelenSab]

Excellent video as always❤️

[@jim_bocho]

Ha! Featured in the random category 😎 Cheers from Hamburg (which also has a great hip hop / break dance community ☝️)

[@ropro9817]

Maurice Moves: What a great video! You chose the questions well. 🤠

[@selmarodriguez3990]

Love how you explain everything. So easy to navigate the videos too.

[@CyberRicky]

Maurice, I love your content Bro. The fact your from TDOT even better.

[@12limited]

I subscribed for the EDC videos. Stayed for the content like this. Thank you!

[@yomi3099]

Man I need to watch how you were affected. I came across and subbed months back but because of travel and looking into merino clothing lol. Glad them subs are rising.

[@Keith_Aerotrunk]

great presentation on this video. very informative and helpful.

[@plausible.deaniability]

absolutely love your channel man

[@jheath75]

Just came upon one of your knife reviews and was immediately hooked. Your videos have a subtle touch of class that makes them quite satisfying to watch. I like that you cover a variety of topics as well as the way you interact with your fan base. Keep up the awesome work Maurice and thank you for all of your time and effort! (Also…mad surprised to learn you’re a high school dropout!? Obviously your intellect and work ethic were born of natural ability…very impressive man…very impressive)

[@BMMB450]

You look so cute when u were small chiled and now. Thanks for sharing such vlogs❤

[@maxlvledc]

Thar buying rules section needs its own video

[@dennisalbers2]

I just watched that video about the life lessons you learned after your dad was murdered. Wonderful insights, very good video. Love your content sir. Always look forward to seeing them.

[@Viper_888]

Nice video! Enjoyed your content!

[@mrpratster]

Few people I subscribe right away and your videos, after 2nd video, I realize how well put together they are and thus subscribed with no hesitation. I love your delivery, your candidness, your “professionalism” your insights. You are very well spoken too, obviously. I am happy I stumbled on to your videos. Wishing you all the success.

[@jooky5]

👍 for whiskey neat

[@matthewjennings7645]

I can tell that you are educated from your vocabulary, knowledge on each field, and how well you communicate. This makes it interesting that you talk about being a delinquent youth. Did that understand come later in life or in youth? Was there a mentor to you or particular books you read that helped influence you?

[@microMobilidade]

This video is a great message, have an amazing day everyone

[@ninetendopesaitama2107]

Your farzi/dari sounds really good. Enjoying your videos. ☮️

[@reneecollins9524]

I love your videos!!!!

[@brettn4337]

G'day from downunder Maurice. Ive always wondered about a few of those questions but didn't feel they warranted asking, so thanks. In regards to the languages you speak do you find them easy to learn? Some people just absorb that information whereas others struggle. Keep up the good work

[@egirlsareruiningmylife]

I'm not Maurice but I teach languages for a living - from my experience anyone can learn a language by not just putting the hours in, but by doing it in such a way that it doesn't feel like work. It's far easier to absorb a language when your brain's engaged and you're having fun. That being said, it isn't always easy, so don't beat yourself up if it's slow going. Hope this helps!

[@eddyjcreative100]

Maurice, this is beautigul and very nice of you to tell us about you and your family....TY

[@edgaraquino2324]

First of all, my condolences for your loss...saw your video on the 3 take-aways & am impressed by your maturity & how you have developed since...you must be a great source of comfort to your mother...your father would be most proud of you...Have you thought of formal study such as an MBA, for instance? Or a degree related to your work or to your related interests in order to burnish your acquired knowledge? Or are time constraints & your practical experience sufficient not to warrant considering higher education? Many thanks for your videos....Good job!😊 Subbed....

[@CrispyTuckley]

Always neat - Respect!

[@psychedelia_]

Bro im from iran and I loved ur accent 😂😂😂, sadly I cannot get a gachapon product because none of the sites ship to iran

[@fredf9562]

Question on your EDC. If the Benchmade Bailout didn’t exist, which would you pick?

[@rachaelhoffman-dachelet2763]

The Germany connection was interesting; I was an exchange student in a small town south of Hamburg, and my daughter did her exchange year in a small town just outside of Braunschweig.

[@theresacrozier3886]

I really love your voice!

[@plausible.deaniability]

MAURICE KNOWS SOME FARSI!! OH SHIT!

[@BrooksBrothersOutdoors]

I would love to see more of your other business! Do you have a second channel?

[@Evsophiee]

Omg yay!!

[@docmalice]

That b-boy trivia came out of nowhere! I dont get those vibes from you watching your vids😂

[@greigtester3721]

Hi Maurice I really enjoy the vids! Sorry if I’ve missed this but where do you get the mini metal airplanes and cameras you have dangling from your notebook strap?

[@ALLDAYEVERYDAYKIM]

Yes, I was just in Tokyo two months ago and I went to this spot. Oh man you ain't lying. They got everything you want

[@Duubly]

To add to question 7. I put everything i want into carts or wish list, leave the tab opened and go back to it daily for 2 weeks and slim it down and rethink what I want. For example: The Pakt Travel bag, I have the 45L in my cart, 35L duffel and 15L every day. I've taken off the duffel bag and considering removing the 15L day bag since I have a sling that fits all my tech. Looking back to my previous trips, I still am on the fence about 15L every day bag but I'll see how that goes in another 2 weeks.

[@Shreyaasshh]

Omg youre amazing

[@Batman2006100]

Se te entiende muy bien el español. Gracias. Saludos desde Argentina

[@sameeralazawee7524]

Thank you

[@huddersfieldtextile8469]

Dude…. Legendary

[@jasonperrier]

I might have to invest in this mini-vac. The one I have done to make my life easier is a clean kitchen before bed. Which actually leads to a quicker clean each night.

[@deanbenitez]

I hope you realize that saying that phrase at the end of Question 2 section really summons the whole country of Indonesia 🇮🇩. Calling my Indonesians, let’s say it all together: TERIMA KASIH, MAURICE!

[@JonStallings]

Mother is always right 😁

[@Gordontubeon]

Your french is really good, je vous félicite ☺️

[@kwhatten]

I have a more interesting question: what's an irregular combat consultant and how did you get into that?

[@ak.8161]

Hey how do you manage your life's besides your projects?

[@candymay75]

❤

[@plausible.deaniability]

I got so excited when I saw the Iranian flag on screen lol

[@KhanKhan-oh2vc]

i agree with your mom, u were a cute baby!

[@mxmus08]

@4:20 Projected cost per use....now that screams tell me you're a buisness owner without telling me you're buisness owner. I'm stealing this idea.

[@unfi6798]

Cowabunga.!

[@bonmakks6155]

First ❤

[@quentin6893]

Your French is very understandable

[@satorudo]

$500 on coffee gear? I definitely have never uttered the words "Wow this grinder is on sale for $300 I should get it"............. hahah ha Help!

[@albert333pool]

Sup

[@vzteacher]

Cute baby. Love the cheeks and I agree with your mom!

[@annhutabarat6776]

Really like your video, but struggling to keep up as you speak really fast

[@RickChan-ov9bq]

You are super handsome and attractive. Your voice is so sexyyyyy..... I love watching your videos...Thanks

[@croyland7605]

Ha ok you don't look like the ugliest infant. I'd say you just look like you're stuck listening to someone's long-winded story and your patience is beginning to wear thin. Also, I love listening to people talk about their top book picks.

[@t.e.1189]

All newborns are ugly, unless of course you re the mother. 😄
