Living in America's Most Expensive State - Hawaii 🇺🇸

Hawaii is the most expensive state to live in. Because of the high costs, many locals are leaving for the mainland. Join me today as we learn from a fascinating Hawaiian local Elijah McShane about what it's like to live in Hawaii: the good, the bad, and everything in between.

[@LemurianMermaid]

Buy land in Ka’u, I own my own acre for just $6K! Instead of paying rent for $2K each month in Kona, OV Acre lots are more affordable. It’s not for everyone and more rural, it’s far from everything and the gas and stuff here is just or more expensive than Oahu but I’m grateful as a kanaka I can actually live in my homeland and not have to be pushed out of paradise. I’m still struggling day to day but it’s worth it because now I’m bulldozing and having the choice on how to design my future home and acre how I want too. It’s in lava zone 2, on the slopes of Mauna Loa and closer to the vent but just like my ancestors, the ancient Native Hawaiians who lived here long ago respectively lived here with the earthquakes, vog, eruptions…It’s a give and take but many local families own their own homes and land here because it’s still affordable and we make do with what we can get while still living in Hawaii. ❤

I literally cried watching this video, because the Aloha spirit infused me when I moved to Oahu in 1955, I was 10 months old at the time. I am not native Hawaiian, but my spirit feels like it is. I can't describe how much I love Hawaii, I am deeply bonded to that place and that energy forever. I live in Colorado, USA now, and hope to participate in Elijah's retreat some day. Aloha to Planet Earth. We need powerful healing energy right now, and Hawaii is a powerful key.

I love this series. My wife LOVES Hawaii. If not for kids she would live there. I enjoyed it but could not live there. When on Maui we had an interesting exchange with a Hawaiian. He said my wife was welcome to move and live in Hawaii, he said I would take some "work". Our trip included staying in a village in upper Maui and on the beach. No resort. utilizing the local markets and shops. Peter, you are right, every beautiful place in the world is in the same situation as Hawaii. We found people in Hawaii that said yes, move here. We found people who said thanks for visiting but don't ever think of moving here, you are not welcome to move here. This series verifies for me the situation and culture of that dual mentality. Thanks for your creative content Peter.

[@PeterSantenello]

Super interesting comment, thanks for this.

[@ChagossianCheetah]

She likes it because she has a thing for Polynesian guys, let's be real here. She even prefers Micronesian, especially Chuukese guys to you and that's sad she prefers 5 foot 6 Chuukese guys to someone like you who worked overtime and spent thousands trying to woo her over.

I’ve heard so many stories from friends, coworkers and strangers (on social media) about how much the native Hawaiians hates outsiders. My family immigrated from Thailand to USA in the early 90s and we’ve always shown so much respect for our new land. It makes me nervous going to Hawaii because I’m not gonna spend a large amount of money to a place only to be told you can visit but don’t come live here.

Hawaii had a Queen and was a sovereign kingdom. It should have never been annexed or "taken by force" by America in 1893. America tried to annex the Philippines in 1899 and the Filipinos fought back. 20,000 Pinoys dead but they stopped America from doing to them what America did to Hawaii and the native Americans on the mainland. Hawaiians chose peace to save lives but they lost everything in the process.

[@hazlopestandweed]

WOW great info

[@yomanleavemealone9815]

Kinda a bad comparison since the Philippines have population of 10s of millions while there were never more than a few million Hawaiians. The USA was never really enthusiastic about have the Philippines as a colony and they promised it independence almost immediately. That had no plans to do to the Philippines what it did to Hawaii

[@mixflip]

@@yomanleavemealone9815 the Americans had huge plans to colonize the Philippines. The Americans helped the Pinoys fight off the Spaniards and when freedom and independence was promised… America denied them and just tried to replace Spain. The Pinoys hated this and fought back. 20k Pinoys died fighting the Americans. America even invented a new handgun and caliber called the 45acp in response to the Pinoys specifically. The fact is America leaves a base in every country its goes to war with. There are huge bases in Japan Okinawa Korea Germany Iraq and Afghanistan. ( up until the horrible pull out that killed 13 marines) My point is Hawaiians should have used asymmetrical warfare and guerrilla warfare to fight for their country if they didn’t have the weapons and big army. It worked for Vietnam and the Taliban. America lost the Vietnam war and the Afghanistan war.

America did take over the Phillipines. It was an American territory until 1946, and before that, it was a Spanish colony.

Before we tipped over the edge of Too Many. Too bad - it was a beautiful world & you can't blame everyone for wanting to see it & also try to get THEIR piece of it. Problem is, the Age of Discovery is over & we are now entering the age of Greed & Destruction & I want MINE , & I want it NOW ! It is too late & no one is interested in doing it equitably.

Mahalo Nui Loa for a wonderful video series to share Hawai’’ Aina and people’s. Was born and raised and moved to Fremont, CA with family. Just came home recently to bring our father’s ashes home to Nanakuli. Was sad of the changes after 45 years of being away. It’s crucial to be involved civically to protect the resources and culture. So grateful that this series is bringing attention to the past, present and hopeful future.

The fact that we get free videos on KZbin by Peter is truly a gift; keeping the education and knowledge alive. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 May I also remind you of the fact that our Native American population in our motherland, the Continent of America before the European Colonizers arrived, was around 15 millions, while the European population in their motherland, the Continent of Europe was around 25 millions. Today, Native American population is 15 million, while the European population, in the Continents of America + Europe, is a staggering TWO BILLION! A shockingly sad truth. 😔 In my humble opinion, it's about time to decolonize the Colonized lands, and return to rightful owners Native American people. Notorious global cardinal crimes the Christian West has committed, and benefited a great deal, such as Slavery & Colonialism had long been over, why on earth is notorious Colonization still lingering on, may I ask? 🤷

Excellent video. Henry J. Kaiser was a big developer in Hawaii after WWII and I bought a condo from Kaiser Pacific when I was in the Navy on Oahu in the 1970's. His claim to fame was a career in aluminum and cement, building the Hoover Dam and founding Kaiser Permanente to provide medical care for his employees on that project. During WWII, he built hundreds of Liberty Ships and around 100 escort aircraft carriers and then built the Kaiser automobile after the war. Needless to say, he was a successful entrepreneur and infatuated with Hawaii. It was a carefree time when I was there but the enormity of the social pressures has created an awareness which wasn't prevalent then. I've been watching a lot of historic videos on Hawaii and wondering if I should go back to end my days and this one digs deeper than most. Both of you did a great job on this one.

[@ikakau]

Mahalo for the video, I was raised in Hawai’i and speak the language and am a cultural practitioner. There are really valid reasons for leaving the place where many of our ancestors bones lay, but to be honest the primary reason for me leaving, not the islands but the US, is the high cost of healthcare. I have seen friends having to make fundraisers, go-fund me or sell their property to cover medical bills. Although I am in good heath now I do not want my wife to be burdened with any expenses if I need extended healthcare. I now live in a country that has excellent affordable healthcare and insurance coverage that covers the entire world, with the exception of the US. This is a uniquely US issue.

[@adrianeragan2694]

Wow Peter, fantastic episode! Delving into the heart and soul of the rising generation of the gatekeepers and teachers of Hawaiian culture. My mother’s family lived on Oahu 50 years ago for a time to transition from living in New Zealand to the mainland US. The aloha spirit was planted in their hearts then and carried on through the generations. Aloha is similar to cultural values of respect, honor, and compassion in other Polynesian islands and yet it is unique too. Elijah explained it well from his kumu, Hawaii is uniquely positioned to help the world live a higher spiritual way. Many are drawn to the mana of its islands and people. They feel aloha, and as the darkness and suffering continue to escalate in the world, truth seekers will be drawn to learn from those with greater wisdom and love rooted in the light. Bless the rising generation of Hawaiians who are preserving aloha, in all its ways, and teaching through example and love to the rest of the world. I pray their efforts may be blessed by heaven so the Hawaiian people can thrive in the islands and others will learn how to honor the land so it is not lost to selfish and bureaucratic interests. Aloha forever!
