Josh and Rachael - loved this video! Thank you for sharing! I also wanted to thank you for bringing a smile to my face when I've had some really hard times. My dad was sick and he passed over a year ago. I found your KZbin channel during that time and it served as a real distraction - I was able to get in a different head space and picture myself in Vegas, Rome, Greece, or on a cruise. You really helped me get through it, and your videos are something I look forward to every week. Please keep doing what you're doing and enjoy every second of if! I work in healthcare as well, and you're right - you really don't know what day will be your last. PS - NYC and I would love to have you back!

Thank you for answering my question. I believed your answer would be just that one. My follow up question would be, after you both retire will Cheyenne area remain your home?

It is a strong college town area. Many folks we have known as young adults in PA all moved and retired to Greenville in the last few years

Paul here (from James and Paul on my viewer account) - just got back from 6 days in Vegas and loved the answers about vlogging/content creation and thanks for addressing the question I had ❤. That’s a good tip about non-Las Vegas stuff too (generally we have tried some stuff outside of Vegas but it never took off - it does give me hope that we could potentially try again with some LA stuff in the future but we also worry that we could potentially turn off our Vegas audience). And Evergreen is thankfully a side of things that we are placing some focus on ❤ (so good to know that we are on the right track) Admittedly though, hearing that last part about burnout did kinda sting because getting home from our last trip yesterday (where we filmed 16 vlogs and 17 slot plays), we constantly call our Vegas trips a “business trip” and we went “go go go” in the last 6 days and now I’m home and it’s Wednesday and I am going to cram out editing this Saturday’s episode by our usual 9am time after work and it’s “crunch time” to not miss a week 😮 - After getting home we were both like, “Why or how do we push ourselves like this?” And yeah… I can also relate to the whole staying in and being frugal when not traveling or filming or doing stuff for the channel. That and stacking credit card points and leveraging comps. And yeah… I can relate, the Adsense payments may pay for one or two videos, but definitely not enough to fund the channel. And that’s the same philosophy James and I follow, we want to be able to do this stuff while we are able to and not have regrets. So many similarities ❤.
@JoshRachael2 ай бұрын
Thanks Paul You guys are putting out some great content and are miles ahead of us when we were as new as you. You have e Evergreen piece down for sure. Non-Vegas Content - we made the conscious decision to post nonVegas stuff on this channel for our own mental health. The time may come where business trips to Las Vegas no longer seem worth it and at a certain point you have to do what works best for you and James. A friend of ours kept telling us to make a second channel for cruising but I (J) said I would burnout if I suddenly had to try to do two or even three high volume travel channels. It may have slowed our growth in subscribers but it helped us keep going through the rough parts and now we are so glad we did it. It also opened the door for us to do the trips we want to do not just trips to Las Vegas that could have gotten to be too much. We enjoy Las Vegas but also want to see the world and are so glad we have had success showing that. Burnout- take care of each other. If a video doesn’t feel right or it’s not the right time for a trip, don’t do it. Sadly there is no guarantees on KZbin. There are so many people out here trying to succeed that even if you work the hardest it might not take off. Take care of yourself and your relationship with James. Do it because you love it not to be famous or rich and it will all be fine in the end.

Have always wanted to visit the pioneer woman store in Petco Oklahoma, sorry not sure how to spell that town of Petco. Read Drummond has a show on the Food Network called the pioneer woman, and she also has several cookbooks. In Puska, she has historical Merk or Mercantile and now she also has a boarding house/small hotel. In the Merck they also have a bakery and restaurant and I’m sure the food is really great in there because it’s probably all the recipes that she uses as the pioneer woman. I’ve always wanted to visit that place but probably will never get to go there. Perhaps you guys can take a trip out to Oklahoma and experience the Merk. Trying to figure out how to spell Pata, perhaps it is PATUCKSA???

This was so interesting, thank you for sharing! I am dying to know which slot vlogger is the favorite, I watch those sometimes too and my husband makes fun of me. I probably deserve that! 😂 Cheers!

Tammy and I enjoyed this video. It got me thinking that it would be cool if you guys would do a video on Fort Robinson next year while Rachael dad is there. I know it would be out of your wheelhouse, but something very different. Just a thought. Allen Settles

Hey Allen! You never know, we might be able to figure out a way to do Ft. Robinson! I know my dad and sister love it over there! Hope all is well 🙃

We are also going on a Celebrity Panama/ABC Island cruise. It is going to be great. It almost feels like two cruises with the itinerary. We are not Vegas people at all but have the same philosophy that now is the time to travel. Our kids are in their early 20’s and I want to get 50 states by 50 and get most of our bucket list travels done by the time we are 60-65. We have seen that our parents don’t travel and most of the people we know in that age range don’t travel either.

After living in Vegas, we saw well over 50 dhows, participated in close to half the episodes of Penn & Teller Fool Us for 4 years, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire 4 years, Ninja Warrior outside in the Sun only once 114 degrees. We saw so many natural locations surrounding the area as far around as Utah, CA, Arizona. The desert is beautiful. We went on a tour of a Gold Mine and more. Vegas was well worth the adventure, but the cost has skyrocketed and water is a huge issue with the population surge.

Venetian has a Tier Match starting Oct 1st which may end up opening for current Grazie members. They currently have a Comp/Tier match promotion for new members. I think I am still recovering from the shock that 2019 Cheap Vegas is gone forever.

josh and rachael are correct on the expense difference in flying. Wife and i flew to Ireland from san Francisco to Dublin. Our seats in economy cost 450 per seat. Business class on the same trip was 5000 per seat. No joke.
@JoshRachael3 ай бұрын
Yea that is just crazy to think about spending that much when you can probably do a whole different trip for the cost of a seat. We splurge on food but not on airline seats for sure

We love you guys. Your vlog is the best. KZbin could eventually help generate a sizable income that will support your love of travel. Check out a possible Production Manager who will do your editing, posting, promoting for a percentage of revenues. You would be surprised how much money can be made by commercial placement, demographic targeting, analytics, and many other methods to drive your vlog to the top of viewer list. Your vlog should be created to be timeless, not once and done. This will generate repeat views and longevity. Thank you both for your efforts.
@JoshRachael3 ай бұрын
Thanks Ted. We are getting to the size now where I think we will have some leverage for negotiating promotions but have passed in the past for ones that didn’t fit us and our audience. The editing side we don’t see a need to chase right now since it won’t allow us to make more videos since we already do as much traveling as we can with our daily jobs so no reason to give away revenue just to watch Netflix a few more hours a week we figure

Cruise loyalty has become portable in the last few years with a few cruise lines. Our Diamond Status will be honored on Celebrity, Virgin, MSC. I believe Celebrity Cruise suits your taste going forward. Unfortunately, the prices are sharply higher. Watching your videos over the years, I believe you are willing to spend if the value is there while keeping cost in mind. In our case we do not pay for a drink package because the 4 free drinks per day for Diamond Status is sufficient along with any additional purchased if needed. Royal has become repetitive after all these years. We have tried Celebrity, Princess, and Carnival brands as well. Every time I say cruising is now a fond memory, my wife begins planning another. 😂
@JoshRachael3 ай бұрын
Haha I can understand that. Diamond status seems to be the key point to get to with Royal and that’s why we decided to stick with them until we hit the mark. We are more open to checking other spots nowadays
