In today's video, I go over my personal finances, revealing what I spent per month (typically) as a 29-year-old living in Scotland whilst working as a self-employed KZbinr. I quite often watch videos like this from other creators where they share 'how much they spent in a week, living in London', or 'how much it costs to live in NYC', so I thought I'd throw out my own version, going over how much it costs to live in Scotland.
To make my videos I use…

Just a crumb of an idea here how about teaming up with your renovation crew and videoing and editing their work just like you did for your tiny home. I know there are tons of flipping type channels out there, but their focus is very different, and they don't have your soothing voice explaining the work.

@@sixdroid per me sì: per i gatti la lettiera che compravo a 4.99€ nel 2018 ora è a 8.99€ al sacco, le confezioni di bustine di cibo erano a 1.79 (in offerta online per anni, ora non lo sono più) e ora sono a 2.99 al supermercato (e i miei gatti si mangiano 8-9 confezioni a settimana), i croccantini sono passati da 1.89 a 3.19€. E mi prendevo un po' di pizza al taglio per portarmela al lavoro per pranzo e la stessa pizza è passata da 10.99€/kg (era a 12.99, ma andavo il giorno in cui la scontavano...) a 17.99 (e non c'è più il giorno in cui la scontano). Purtroppo, considerando il tipo di alimenti che acquisto io e che pesano di più sulla mia spesa, dal 2018 ho visto un aumento del 70-80%. Infatti probabilmente toglierò la pizza al taglio buona dai miei acquisti settimanali per rientrare su livelli più decenti. Altre cose non sono aumentate così tanto, ma vogliamo parlare dell'olio d'oliva o del riso per risotti? In 5 anni sono più che raddoppiati; per fortuna di quelli non ne consumo tanti, ma mia mamma ha smesso di fare le verdure in casa sott'olio e ha dimezzato il numero di risotti: più pasta e meno risotti, perché la pasta è aumentata decisamente meno. La differenza che ho visto molto, soprattutto sui prodotti per i gatti, è che prima trovavo tutto perennemente in offerta, mentre ora solo prezzo pieno e pure aumentato

I’m totally with you on traveling. I absolutely hate it. If it wasn’t for my quest to visit the greatest beaches and see some architecture and history along the way, I would never get on a plane. I’ve traveled all over the States, Europe, but somehow missed Canada and your country. If I lived in Scotland I wouldn’t leave it either. Only read about the Lake District, but it sure looks gorgeous on the screen. I always heard Scotland was stunning, but had no idea until the Queen passed away. I watched a live stream of her hearse traveling to Balmoral from London and the Scottish landscape was too breathtaking for words. I had absolutely no idea it was so lush and wild looking. It’s like time stopped there. You can actually see the Highlands from hundreds of years ago still in existence. I like to think if was her last act of generosity even in death. Sharing her beloved Scotland with the world and opening our eyes to its true unadulterated beauty.

Gosh George I’d love to hear how you make $100 worth of groceries last a month. That’s amazing! Also, you live in a beautiful country rich with history and many gorgeous places to explore, plus the added bonus of no apex predators to worry about in nature! I wouldn’t feel the need to travel much if I lived there either. I used to love traveling and then something happened that left me with (at times) crippling anxiety. It’s very hard to enjoy or even take in new places when your body is in high alert mode. France isn’t going anywhere. If and when you’re ready, France, its baguettes and dizzying repertoire of cheeses will be waiting for you.

Being somewhere that feels like home, including nature, and having no desire to travel spells contentment. I have had what most people tell me is the amazing chance to travel anywhere in the world over the past 4 months, and all I want is basically what you have. I just haven't found the place where I feel home yet, so I continue my search. It isn't just you. Flying freaks most people out, but they don't have consciousness of it. People who are sensitive (me... and you?) are the ones who end up empathing the subconscious freak-out of the plane-full and having a miserable flight. Over time, I have learned how to stay more in my own frequency bubble, but I still feel the ick of every flight I am on. You are super normal to me in every way, and if you don't want or need to travel, I say don't without apology!

Please don't worry about what other people think. You seem a kind, authentic and unpretentious person. I should think your parents are very proud 😊

Listening to you talk over gentle piano music is very soothing! Also, learning what expenses are for another almost-30yr old home owner in other parts of the world is very interesting... and makes me want to move to Scotland!

Hi George, I didn't realise that Council Tax in Scotland includes the water bill! Amazing value compared to England, it's a separate bill.

@@platinpalladium no, we pay council tax and you use what you need. We rarely have limits in place. Maybe around the summer we might be asked to go easy on watering the grass but usage isn’t monitored by household. Our water authority is publicly owned.

In general Scotland has more water than it can use, I have never heard of a hosepipe ban but then it rains quite a bit so in reality you don't need to use a hosepipe. your water bill is linked to council tax band so the larger the house the larger the water bill section, because we are not on mains drainage we get a 25% discount on water part of bill

Thanks for the insight George. Nothing embarrassing about preferring the quieter breaks. City breaks aren’t always all they’ve cracked up to be if you aren’t into partying, which I’m not anymore. I’m from Essex and my wife and I now love country breaks and the Scottish highlands and isles are definitely up there on our list.

The holidays I enjoy are the ones where I don’t have to do any planning. All I do is pack my clothes and show up at the airport. I’m fortunate that my son does all the planning and I just show up and enjoy. When I had to plan my vacation holidays it was stressful. I UNDERSTAND YOUR PAIN

I find this type of video on how people live their lives quite addictive. I think you have done so well to get as far as you have at such a young age and your story will act as an inspiration for other young (and maybe not so young) people going forward. I have subscribed.
