Spicy Q&A: Dating in NYC, Consulting Regret, Wasted Ivy League Degree?, Getting Over Breakups & More

[@eoinmh]

I enjoy your videos even though I'm a 62 year old guy living in a rural southern state. I like that you are honest and straight forward about your career path and that you've been transparent with information about how you earn income on KZbin. I also find it refreshing that I don't know anything about your love interests. I found it really touching that you interviewed your grandmother and the care and affection you have for her. I think I' m trying to say the vision you have for your channel is being accomplished. You are sharing your love and enjoyment of an amazing city, you are helping others think about how they might make a go of KZbin with their own background and interests... and you are funny and entertaining. I can't imagine what it must be like to be such a smart and insightful person. Yet have to endure the thirsty people wanting to shove your vision in the directions that so often get exploited and shown. Good on you for holding true. My wife and I hope to go to NYC after we retire, so I watch some KZbin about the city and have always enjoyed movies set in NYC that used as a character as well not only as a backdrop. You catch that concept really well. I run on and I apologise. My youngest son is a bit older than you and has struggled with mental health issues, especially the last year. Y'all are worlds apart in every way, yet I so wish he could have found a means to find passion and the confidence and center to have a mit of what you have. I worry I failed hime... thanks for being a day brightener and the actually helpful information. Ma'be in a couple of years my wife and I will run into you up there.

[@KarinaSwan]

That's a sweet comment. Interesting that your wife and you want to go to NYC, usually people want to get away from all that noise at that age. As for your son, don't think like that, we all have our experiences that help us learn, it's very difficult but maybe it's something you need to learn from him, by trying to help him get through it. Also, if he's on meds please look into it, those meds aren't always helping, they're definitely not healing but just placing things on hold. Look into what is it he needs to get out of it, there's definitely an underlying issue that started it. You have to find it and try to change it. Hope that helps, may God send you and your wife patience and for your son to get better. 🌞

[@scammersnightmare]

That 7:46 transition is Oscar Wining quality! She is kicking butts everyday, so excited to see her development and maturity in goofiness.

[@TaylorBell]

Thank you for noticing it 🥹

[@PaigeTurnerASMR]

Planning, Inspiration, Dedication, and Determination! That's what it takes, and you got it! Thank for showing me the way!!!!

[@scottyrobinson5708]

I was having a miserable day but your energy and spirit alone changed that the sun actually came out much love Taylor Bell!💯⭐️🤩❤️❤️❤️

Dawwwww thrilled to hear it!!!

[@avinash21899]

bro same here too.

[@nevaehcoco273]

love the law of attraction! The grass is greener where you water it! I hope i can really carry it out all the time!

[@blackbeacon3]

Good to see you Taylor Bell. It's always good to see you. Again and again.

[@edwardtakenaka5647]

Unbelievable!!! You’re my first!! Listened to all 17:47 minutes w/o pause…never been done before w any other creator. You’re pretty special human ❤

[@TaylorBell]

An honor!!

[@atrujillo9311]

This is incredible! Thank you for sharing so much of yourself with us. I know it can be scary to be vulnerable on a platform like this. But to be honest, it makes people's life so much less lonely!

[@TaylorBell]

You rock, so happy you enjoyed 🥹

[@VictoriaArtLover]

Taylor, you look so beautiful and happy! You are literally glowing! I feel like you are 100% at the right place in your life. I came here last year because of your consulting videos (recent MBA graduate) but now I just love witnessing how you have the strength to create your dream life in the best city of the world. Keep the videos coming ❤

[@TaylorBell]

This means so much to me-- thank you x100

[@gilcimarlima7849]

Your sense of humor is awesome, and I love the energy that you put into your videos Taylor.

[@javirojeda]

Actually aside from also working on consulting and greatly enjoying that side of your content, your "goofiness" is what has kept me coming back over the years of following you, so it does show, worry not!!

[@TaylorBell]

aw shucks I am flattered, thank you. Worried I shall not be!!

[@zephany]

Taylor, you are the perfect balance of brains and humor! Your tips and insights are invaluable and your humor keeps me coming back for more. I saw your post from a while back when you surprised your parents at dinner, and I just wanted to quickly chime in and say that I, too, enjoy the sweet moments that you've shared of your personal life along with your professional one. As someone who dreams of living in NYC myself someday, you're also an inspiration! Wishing you much continued success and always looking forward to your next post!

[@TaylorBell]

Soooo kind of you to say, thank you so much. Glad you appreciate those personal moments too 🥹

[@neonomad1939]

Hi Taylor, Your sense of humour is your greatest asset in giving people the girl next door kind of vibe. I'd like to see you create content in other parts of the world. Gl

[@andydoms2001]

I love all your advice Taylor, especially what you have to say about dating. I’m 22 and I’ve never had a girlfriend (and not disappointed by it) because with all the girls I’ve gone on a date with, they never went further because non on them felt right. Which as I forget sometimes, is nothing to be ashamed about. All good things come to those who wait.

[@TaylorBell]

nothing to be ashamed about AT ALL. Good things come to those who wait for the right one indeed 😊

[@beautifulbliss9797]

Take your time. No pressure man. Says a woman. You'll get there eventually.

[@dsalzy411]

Taylor, I have always admired your intelligence, creativity and humor. I think your description of why you eat the middle of the Cinnabon first to satisfy the hunger is an excellent example of how smart you are. Problem solving, and reasoning in one bite!

[@TaylorBell]

hahahah I so appreciate this positive take on my strategy. Thank you 🥹

[@peterferrer8161]

To be honest, watching your videos has always lifted my spirit because you radiate postive energy. I had been feeling depressed and melancholic after my grandma was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and my gf left me. Thank you for cheering me up as well as thousands of ppl here.

[@sandydoyle6213]

I just recently discovered your channel since you were in my recommend videos and since then, I've binge watched so many of your videos! I love your style and your whole energy and I love that your content is also educational. Just wanted you to know so thank you!!!

[@TaylorBell]

omg this makes me soooo happy, thank you sm 💜

[@tsm7964]

2:09 I graduated UCLA with a degree in mathematics and economics, but I have completely switched gears to music and theology. Like Taylor, I agree that my time at UCLA was not a waste even though I changed careers.

[@TaylorExchange]

Great job pushing through to get this video out. You motivated me to eat the center of a cinnamon roll!

[@michael7054]

Great video! This was a fun watch! I love your NYC videos, but I'd love to watch more travel videos if you ever wanted to make any more.

[@kartikkapoor7276]

You come across as a really smart individual, like one who knows what they are doing. Loved this video!

[@Hercules_tootoo]

I went to Kellogg - then Mckinsey. I would never have the courage to do what you did! It is so impressive!

[@tylerkloever4442]

Your goofiness is definitely a charm anyone, including your brother lol, can enjoy 😊. Your charm, transparency, and lifestyle vlogs are a treat, just like the center of a Cinnabon

[@talhacreates4944]

The only female content creator I watch. So funny and goofy in such a nice wholesome way. And dw we can tell you’ve got dark humour 😂

[@TaylorBell]

HA thank you

[@nadinebouchard9843]

The question is why?

[@nadinebouchard9843]

I mean Taylor is great but why only her?

[@ArtSanjay2343]

I watch taylor so as to learn English and communication. she is best.

[@nadinebinder4488]

Your videos always brighten up my day - thanks for replying to all those questions! And your room looks so cozy!

[@asknatalieallison]

You rock Taylor! Thank you for creating such authentic and helpful content. You've inspired me to start my very own KZbin channel a couple of weeks ago. Just wanted to give a little shoutout to you - you're awesome!

[@MichaelPingree]

Another great video Taylor. We've seen everything about the "front facing" part of what you do, the filming, editing and final product. Now that this is your full-time job, what about the "behind the scenes" aspect of running a business? How have you structured your business? Bookkeeping, taxes, etc. Might be nice for people to see that there's more to doing this than just the "glamour" stuff.

[@TaylorBell]

Thank you so much!! And totally-- so excited to show what this part of the job looks like too very soon

[@vincenzopellicano0568]

As an Italian 18-year-old boy who's constantly trying to improve his English I can tell you that watching your videos is one of the best ways to combine learning and entertainment!! Thanks Taylor ;) (Hope I didn't make that many mistakes in only one sentence lol)

[@TaylorBell]

SO glad you enjoy them 😊 No mistakes at all!!!

[@MichaelMartello]

Your KZbin experience is relatable (and calming) to me. 90% of my time making vids is also behind a screen, as much as people think I’m always out and about outside in SoCal lol. Keep it up!

[@TaylorBell]

hahaha totally-- if only!!! And thank you sm

[@jacobcarmichael4402]

This is your best title yet. A true work of art

[@TaylorBell]

The work of one, count em one, singular mastermind: me

[@GrowingonVancouverIsland]

Your videos are so fun to watch! Don't ever stop making content! Even when you're 30 plus. I'm sure your content will only get better!

[@TaylorBell]

THANK YOU! Can't imagine not making videos so we shall see!!

[@natedagreat850]

As someone with an Exercise Physiology degree, turned Software Engineer and part time photographer/videographer/content creator I definitely resonate with the "I may not be 'using' my degree, but it absolutely got me to where I'm at" sentiment haha. Plus, the career-driven planner with "slightly ill puppy" humor is incredibly accurate for me 😂. I've been in full grind mode to "maximize my systems" that are leading me toward my goals, but I'm definitely excited for the time I get to comfortably travel and just do things because I enjoy it. Please continue all the Q+As and life updates, it's great to hear from someone with a similar mind lol.

[@Teefthebusiness]

When you stopped at 8:49 I thought you felt the Earthquake 😂

[@CodeDusq1]

While in the past I usually got over my breakups and moved on pretty quick, but my last breakup was one that I found the most difficult to move on from , as I had a very close bond with that person. It’s been a while now and I’m doing better, but a part of me still hurts. It’s the cruel irony of love, as sometimes the ones that hit the hardest are the ones we truly loved and cared for. But hang in there, time might heal, but some scars run deep. Also it does help to have supportive people around you.

[@TaylorBell]

Have been there. Never easy. Sometimes all that helps is time

[@andreacullen770]

I graduated from university here in Canada in the early 80s. I have always said that it was part education but part meeting the professionals that you would want in your life.. your friends the lawyer, the doctor, the teacher, etc…. To go to for advice in your later years. And agreed.. the experiences and friends made in university (or college or whatever) are key people moving forward in your life. I’m still connected to many of them.. all these years later. :)

[@TaylorBell]

Couldn't agree more

[@sajademad117]

I really like your videos, energy, and philosophy. I’ve been following you for a few years now and you’re BY FAR my favourite youtuber. Keep it up Taylor!

[@TaylorBell]

omg thank youuuuu, that's so nice

[@beautifulbliss9797]

Looking forward to watch your video even before I'll watch it in a minute. You're smart and funny and the audience here loves you. Someone said in the comments you'll bring a girl next door vibe. That's very true; You're authentic and funny and very smart. You'd make a great friend I'm sure and you're friends can be happy to hang out with you. Happy days Taylor

[@tmat90-o8t]

T. Bell, you could give a masterclass on public speaking. You always sound so confident; so sure of what you say. 😊

[@TD-qi2rw]

I just can't get over your apartment !! Its so perfect and for you an amazing find - judgement !!! Perfect transition . Namaste ! Oh and hope the windows are keeping out the winter.

[@gumball3D]

Your intros are fun to watch. You do what you gotta do. I know I wouldn't last a day as a consultant, so kudos to you for doing it for years.

[@TaylorBell]

ah thank you so much 😊

[@19Bosses]

I just started watching your videos and I am hooked! Getting my 27 year old daughter to watch as well. :). Love what you are doing and your enthusiasm and energy shine through - keep it up!

[@NBTJacklyn]

Love how u edit things

[@TaylorBell]

aw thanks my gorl!!

[@nancypettitt1211]

Taylor you make me laugh. I love that you have your own sanctuary and then can be with others as well. I have the same kind of setup for now. Great sense of humor and enjoy your stuff......take care.

[@ld5714]

This was awesome Taylor; I appreciated how you covered the questions. You seem to be open, yet appropriately guarded and I liked your answers very much, especially the last one. You are an awesome person and it must be something special to be part of your circle of friends - they are very blessed I imagine. Thanks for your great contenet Taylor. Have a great week. Larry in So Ca.

[@TaylorBell]

So nice of you to say--- thank you 😊

[@beautifulbliss9797]

People haven't got your level of style (yes very judgemental) for asking YOU about only fans. I would have guessed the "no" as an answer. Very entertaining video again! And happy your folks support your job as well. It just feels great having your folks supporting you emotionally.

[@TaylorBell]

hahahahaha aw thanks. Yeah the onlyfans Qs just make me laugh ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ and yes absolutely great to have the folks emotionally support

[@philiplaycock8944]

Lovely transparent vlog Taylor.! Keep enjoying your NYC lifestyle to the full. Your personality/humour is extremely attractive Phil 😊x

[@briantgross]

Fun to see another video from you Taylor, great job on this! I like the sound of the rain but not really getting dumped on haha so good call filming inside. Any plans to do an international trip this year?

[@SacOrcas]

Always look forward to your vids. Such different content on each on (rather than all food reviefws or travel reviews). Congrats on making the decision to go full time. You rock!

[@TaylorBell]

thank you SO much, glad you enjoy the variety 😅

[@JeremySmithhh]

Asking this in response to your feeling tied down to NYC: how far out are you on vids? From shooting to releasing? Give yourself time to breathe and travel while still keeping the NY-centered content going!

[@valerie1957]

I’ve always enjoyed your content and your subtle (mostly) humor 😊

[@TaylorBell]

So glad, thank you 😊

[@viralbae9616]

girl I just checked your spotify playlist, idk why but I thought you were a swiftie *only artist we have in common is noah kahan ♥ stick season ♪

[@ViviansLog]

Katz’s here she comes 😂 Video request? I feel like you have a lot of value to bring regarding finances with the way you handle money and how you were brought up. I for one don’t have that frugal mentality. Maybe a video on how you handle this consumerism world we live in, getting out of debt, etc? Anyway, great video as always. 👏🏼

[@TaylorBell]

KATZ here I COME ! And love that, def will do a personal finance update video 😊 Thank you!!

[@karensmith678]

Always a pleasure hearing from you !🐢

[@thayerbigelow6436]

Excellent video. Fabulous pacing. Your energy is awesome. I see quite a few videos and don’t think I’ve seen any where the creator’s personality and visual expressions are so outstanding. Are you thinking about Patreon?

[@TaylorBell]

Wow thank you!! Appreciate it. No to Patreon but yes to a course soon + some membership ideas I’ve been thinking about!

[@eerinoneil]

[@coscorrodrift]

Love your Q&As, they're the videos of yours i never fail to watch. You explain everything so well, love the balance between honesty and keeping stuff to yourself. I relate to the "wasting your degree" question, don't use it rn and doesn't seem like i'm going to use it soon but it gave me insight into a world i was interested in, and led me to people i still hold in high regard, so i've few regrets there.

[@TaylorBell]

aw yay glad you enjoy the Q&As 😊And so true re college

[@enricotoma5043]

Great video as always from Taylor, really love your energy! Beautiful hoodie, where did you get it? Greetings from Italy🇮🇹

[@nc_fr87]

Loved that q&a!

[@Lifeislovely111-zl9qz]

I love watching your videos! It reminds me of when I lived in Manhattan in my 20s and it's fun seeing how a 20 something experiences life in NYC these days. You seem super intelligent and it's exciting to follow your journey and how brave you are for pursuing a non-traditional career path! Btw, what book are you reading? The book on your nightstand looks vaguely familiar but I couldn't tell which book it was.

[@TaylorBell]

Wow thank you sooooo much! And the book is Demon Copperhead, loving it so far 😊

[@ko_grindz]

Your Q’As are interesting

unrelated from the video itself, but please do more "daily NYC life" vlogs. so many people wanna see YOU out and about in NYC living your life!

[@atrujillo9311]

I think you mentioned comedy a couple times. Do you have a fav comedian/special? You strike me as a Bert Kreischer gal - but then again I may be reading into the "sick puppy" vibes.
