I have no idea what to put in the description part of these videos yet. THANKS FOR WATCHING!

[@LoudAsFuckk]

[@CasualGuyy]

This was unbelievably homely feeling and gave me a weird feeling of hopefulness. cheers x

[@Betheother]

CONGRATULATIONS Micheal! Almost 20 years ago i did exactly that. Put all my money in a dream I had. ( opening my art studio, tattoo and paintings) Scary yes, had doubts yes, but deep down I knew It was gonna work. Cause they were no B plan😂 And had put in all I got. Best decision of my life. Will be following your new releases🤝🏽💥

[@s-zo5641]

I hope you keep uploding here. I might even like this more than your other channel. You just don't get this kind of vlogging nowadays. You have an amazing positive attitude towards everything and everyone. You are gonna go far for sure.

This video oddly came out in a very convenient time in my life. I'm in a slightly similar situation where I recently had a life changing, and quite frankly, eye opening event happen that has changed my outlook on life, and has almost forced me to finally make my move and begin working on what my passion in life has always been, something I have truly always wanted to do. It's made me realize I'm no longer happy where I am at with my day job, and has shown me that I can't keep playing it safe and "waiting" on life to work out because of how "comfortable" I got. Before this last year starting KZbin, I had been truly unhappy with life for years. And recently I realized I don't want to end my life in that sort of state, because you never know what's going to happen. I am finally working on my sort of "end all, be all" idea I have had in my mind for years, the Menswear brand I have been waiting to make since I was in high school. It's going to cost me everything I've ever saved up for. And I'm well aware it might not pan out the way I expect. But I'd rather live knowing that I tried, rather than waiting too long until it's too late. This video, and your story helped validate that drive that I have to go for it. And while I'm risking it all as we speak to chase that dream my "child self" has had since I had nothing, I can truly say I haven't felt this alive in a LONG time. I truly wish you nothing but happiness and success, and thank you for sharing your story. Hopefully one day, I get to share mine and inspire others too.

I’m not a comment leaver, but…keep going! You are magnetic. I will watch anything you put out because you frame it all so well! It holds my interest. I’m excited to see this all come into fruition.

[@ixradivide]

This is really awesome to see somebody launching a company and chasing a dream from the very beginning! Good on you man. The thief jackets are sold out but I'm looking forward to seeing what your wool jacket design will be. The snail is gonna go supersonic.

[@fotune]

What you said about being on the magic land without the wizard, it really struck a chord for me. good luck on your jackets! looking forward to a sweater.

[@DMorgan77]

This was fantastic. You are so skilled in your storytelling and it’s a great “behind the scenes” vlog. I’m happy for you.

[@jterranova]

Darn. Missed out on my Thief's Prologue purchase!

[@theguywithaname4432]

I’m not in the same field (studying astrophysics) as you. But nonetheless I love this video I’ve actually been trying to take more risks and not fear failure which right now has been paying off! I’ve been getting amazing internships like building telescopes. I love your video here it just ingrains my effort to take more risks in life!

[@__6487]

Have been wearing the thief's prologue just about daily! Your video production talents have been an excellent indicator of your attention to detail and design overall. Looking forward to seeing your vision come to fruition

[@PublickOccurrences]

Love this, I've dropped everything in my life to take a big chance a few times, and so far it's always worked out (for the most part). Don't live in regret, go for the gold! Long live the Iron Snail.

[@khaledJkhalidinhoAbdulla]

Great storyteller 👏

[@chauncey_vw5015]

Amazing Michael. Look forward to the next one!

[@Rhombitian]

I’m crying and I don’t know why lol. Great video. Great products. We all can’t wait to see what you make next!

[@witte2702]

really happy for you Michael.

[@kenngo3690]

Thank you, Michael, for the amazing storytelling of your journey. I will be waiting for the next drop of Thief Prologue.

[@digitunicorn]

Very cool to see your hard work and honesty about the whole operation. I really hope everything is a success.

[@drsrsv8884]

I'm so happy for you!👍

[@cmac8]

best vlog I've ever seen. not kidding. thank you for all the hard work Michael.

[@hannesbosse9030]

This might as well be the most inspiring video I have ever seen. At this point it probably is impossible for you not to make it big. Stay strong man. It'll get easier along the way :-)

[@rockymtnstyle]

Great watch. Thanks, bro!

[@tnan123]

Best of luck on the amazing journey! Glad to be able to follow along.

[@ballsworthy]

Holy shit you walked by my apartment in Boston! I had no idea the iron snail crawled by. Into mass and cass 😂

[@altonio123]

Great video Michael! I've really been enjoying following your journey. Wish the best of luck to you!

Dude this is the content I've been waiting for from you! So happy to see you pursue your dreams and finally get the brand fully off the ground. Best wished to you going forward & we'll all be supporting you and watching along the way :)

[@sunjayjagath]

Wishing You Every Success & Fulfilment Michael,..😇💪🏼👖

[@JoeyDecay]

I love it. I needed this to get started on my day which doesn't involve any investment but time

[@VinnieGer]

Alright let’s see what ya got 😤

[@MattB-824]

Love it!!

[@yoyoyo7649]

I'm from a large family of entrepreneurs (immigrants), I've seen hundreds of thousands (a few life's savings) poured into a single and distant chance that the investment will make a profit and quick enough, so that the whole won't be lost. In other cases, I've seen whole, tight-knit families ripped apart from businesses and investments lost, never to be repaired. I've seen friends, family, communities in other countries, crushed because of a business failure in this country. I've seen depression, never recovering, and "un-life" due to business failure. Etc., etc. This is a reality of plenty of new people to this country (and others), unsung usually, still somehow carrying on. And even after all that, with all honesty, I'd still say DO IT dude, go for it, do it with blood on the line; because so many people are afraid to take anything close to that kind of chance, believe you are in good company. These people, slow, but people of iron, are meant to inspire. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it.

[@Vwall007ST]

Great video, I always love these kinds of videos. Like the one where you visited Naked and Famous in Montreal. I'm curious what's next Michael!

[@billtodd7693]

Great!! "You risk it all because it's worth a shot." Profound.

[@McGloin349]

I’m rooting for you.

[@mattisoncrowe79]

You went to my favorite place in Watertown! Deluxe Town Diner. Well played, Michael
