Goku, the main protagonist of the Dragon Ball series, has several flaws that make him a more nuanced and relatable character. Some of his notable flaws include:
1. Overconfidence: Goku often underestimates his opponents, leading to him getting into trouble.
2. Impulsiveness: Goku acts on instinct without thinking things through, which can lead to reckless decisions.
3. Naivety: Goku's pure heart and trusting nature can make him vulnerable to manipulation.
4. Short-sightedness: Goku focuses on short-term goals and often neglects the bigger picture.
5. Stubbornness: Goku can be quite headstrong and resistant to changing his mind or listening to others.
6. Lack of strategy: Goku often relies solely on his brute strength and fighting instincts, rather than developing a thoughtful battle plan.
7. Emotional attachment: Goku's strong emotional connections to his friends and family can cloud his judgment and lead to him making rash decisions.
8. Overprotectiveness: Goku's desire to protect his loved ones can lead to him taking unnecessary risks and putting himself in harm's way.
These flaws make Goku a more human and relatable character, and his struggles to overcome them are a key part of his development throughout the series.
Cuh - NETTI - cut đ„° is near New York state.
So that home that you are looking at is an âunfinished basementâ. The basement in our home is a finished basement which has 2 bedrooms, a full bath, a laundry room, and an office nook. Depending on where you live will determine if you buy a home with an unfinished basement or a finished basement. My home including our basement is about 2,000 liveable square feet, 2 car garage, and a big backyard. Paid $235k for it.
As an Australian I picked his Kiwi accent straight away.
Thats NOT houses that most Americans live in!
Connecticut is where rich New Yorkers go to feel like they are 'roughing' it in the country.
đ€Ł
@@MoreAdamCouser i was visiting a friend who lives in Connecticut and we went to nyc on the commuter rail. on the way back it the entire train was literaly only 30 to 50 year old business men who work in ny and bought nice houses in Connecticut and then me and my friend drinking vodka in a mountain dew bottle lmao.
My family are Quaker dairy farmers in rural Connecticut..
All the rich uppity NYC folks have caused property values to soar in many small towns.
They aren't welcome my father's family have lived in Connecticut sense 1665.
đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
Or where middle class people live under a very heavy tax burden, lol. I live in Connecticut, I know. It is a good place to live otherwise. I was born and have always lived in CT.
Adam, just for clarification, a house like this in Connecticut would cost at least three times as much as your current home in Ireland.
Try 5x more lol
Best way I can explain where Connecticut is to a foreigner is: It's a state that's in-between the cities of Boston and New York.
We indeed are
We are a highway state.
@@Avarice21 Is Connecticut *big* enough to have a highway? On the map, it looks like it would have maybe two or three exits at most.
@@jonadabtheunsightly we have some of the most congested highway stretches in the entire US. stamford CT takes up 4 spots in the top 10 most congested roads in the country.
@@jonadabtheunsightlyomg! I make the drive from NY to Boston regularly. I95 has 94 exists!! It is a nightmare to drive with all the traffic & construction. Are you sure you arenât looking at the state next to it called Rhode Island? That is tiny.
I think this is a pretty typical home for the area. It would be in the bigger side in my area, but not the biggest. It reminds me of my grandparents home. That front room would have been filled with the "good" (read expensive or antique) furniture that kids were not allowed to play in and definitely not allow to sit on said furniture.
Basements are typically (depending on the home design) the entire size of the main floor of the house. Usually you finish them and can divide the space into more bedrooms and/or a game room.
I was surprised because a house that appeared that large had a pretty small garage.
Basements are usually the same foot print as the house. The main portion of our house is 28ft x 40ft. That is the dimension of our basement. No basement under the 16ft x 28ft garage. My mother in law had a home with a basement that included the area under her two car garage. That basement was enormous!!!
I grew up middle class, and to me this definitely qualifies as a "rich people house", but its a lot more "normal" house than the previous house.
Such a beaut home
There's rich and then there's rich and then there's rich. This is probably somewhere around 80th-90th percentile, I guess: definitely quite a bit nicer than average, but not nice enough to be really unusual. I think most Americans don't live in a house this nice but do *know* somebody who does. I've visited houses this nice or nicer on a number of occasions but have never lived in one.
He needs to watch one of those shows that fixes older homes like Good Bones or Love it or List it.
So he can see the before and after.
Depends where you live. Solidly middle class in Boise metro area.
This is not rich đ you can afford this is you're making 6 figures rich is 7 and 8 figures
This is ALSO NOT representative of American homes. There are huge regional differences...Some areas have no basements because of the water underground, or there is so much room, they make bigger homes....etc Other areas have older homes that more like UK terraced homes... mostly in the east where british influence was strong... Other areas have Spanish influence, french, log cabin styles, modern.... The U.S. is so huge, you will find many styles and sizes of homes, flats, semi-detached all in the same city. Country homes are again another sub set... Want to get a real feel? Look that the real state search sites and see what is on the market... lots of interior pictures to look at.
Connecticut is a state part of the tri-state area suburbs (New York, New Jersey, Connecticut) of New York City. And yes, that house is a fairly typical home for the area BUT it is a high income area. I have seen many times that natives of England, Ireland, Scotland, etc don't really grasp the enormity (thus the huge diversity) of the U.S. For example, Edinburgh to London is 384 miles and could be driven in a day. Bridgeport, Connecticut to L.A. California is about 2,850 miles and would take the better part of a week to drive. So lots of America means lots of different standards of living.
The most surprising thing about this video is that you didn't recognize that this guy is NOT American. I thought he was Australian, but apparently he is from New Zealand. Very distinctive NON American accent! As to Connecticut: we don't pronounce the c in the middle. We say Conneticut. I don't know why! This house is quite lovely, very large, and on a big lot. Not the "average" home. I live in Dallas, TX, and you would not believe the wealth here. Neighborhood after neighborhood after neighborhood of enormous homes, it starts to seem like everyone is rich. But, no, that's not the case. But North Texas is unbelievable in terms of the number of huge, beautiful homes. You would just not believe it.
I pronounce is "connect-i-cut" in my head when I need to spell it thought.
What? @ 10:00 he literally says he doesn't sound American
This is a totally typical suburban house where I live. The only difference is most people have a liveable space finished in their basement. Most donât have that extra space in the attic though.
Note this house is in Connecticut and is 1.2 million dollars even though that house here in Minnesota where I live is cheaper.
That house here in north alabama would cost around 350k
I live in the Midwest, we built a Shome ... footprint is 80x60 ft with 1800 sq ft of living space (3 bedrooms and 2 bath), connected to the shop 2400 square feet with 5 bays for vehicles. We live on 10 acres. Our cost was 189,000. Depending on where you want to be and how you want to live, prices vary significantly from area to area.
Best houses: big kitchens, t-bowls for each and every b-hole, giant backyard, finished basement, attached garage
Factasss
In my old home we had a fully furnished basement with storage, a workshop for my moms scrapbooking, a living room with a couch, chairs, a carpet and a projector for games/tv. Then we had a bathroom with a shower and I full bedroom with a walk-in closet at the end of the basement. I was very fortunate but basements can be absolutely massive in the US.
That Connecticut home is typical of newer builds. The rest of us in CT live in regular ranch homes. FYI, our property taxes are very high.
I live in middle America where there are small, medium & large homes. I do think the average home in America is probably about 2000 square feet. We do love a large kitchen, where family & friends can gather. I would love to see a tour of your home.
Yeahhhhhh don't say "luring children in" unless you want Chris Hansen knocking on your door there bud
đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
"Why don't you take a seat over there?"
Donât get ur panties in a twist
This isn't quite fair, but it is very much like a house that middle class Millennials grew up in because Gen Xers could afford this house when it was actually affordable. It just has a rich single guy aesthetic with no kids to fill it with toys and school work. Connecticut is super expensive but normally this sort of house would be $500k-$700k with updates. In Connecticut, this house was sold to him for apparently about $990k, which makes sense as actual mansions over in that area are about $1.2mil.
very true. This house in suburban Houston would probably be around 600 to 700k, more towards downtown in the heights about 1.2 million. In rural Texas probably 400 to 600k depending on how much land it sits on. Location is everything. But, it wouldn't have a basement in the South. Too much groundwater.
@@laynem3242 There's many reasons why basements are less common in certain regions. and like most things, it usually comes down to money. The reason why many southern homes don't have basements is because they simply don't need too, because the ground doesn't freeze so a slab on grade foundation is cheaper. If you wanted to have a basement in the south, you certainly could. It doesn't matter how much groundwater there is, it's just a matter of the proper design. People in the south still build in-ground swimming pools, and it's important that the water in pool doesn't leak out and that groundwater doesn't leak in. Not to mention people have literally build concrete tunnels underwater for vehicles to travel through.
Our houses are generally around 1400 to 2000 sq. ft. Give or take.. Basements don't usually include under the garage like his does
This is still not the "average" house to me. The fact he has a BMW in his driveway says a lot. The people I know could never afford that house
Bmws arent expensive. But the BMW he has is still worth 40k and its 10 years old.
â@@DaInfamous0ne
Well I know what $ you make if you think BMWs aren't expensive...and did you forget about his Porsche?
That is a VERY average house for that area. You need to know what is typical for the given area.
Connecticut is in the East portion of the US.
@@jesi3336 A used BMW is only somewhat more expensive than a VW or some stupid crossover SUV.
Easy way to pronounce Connecticut. Cun- etiquette . Say it quickly. Now I am Midwestern, so keep that in mind too.
Prices for homes vary very widely, depending on location. In the Boston, New York, Southern California areas homes are very expensive.
My father just sold his home in a suburb of San Diego for $1.3 million. By no stretch of the imagination is the home huge. It has five bedrooms, three full baths, a bonus room and is roughly 3000 ft.ÂČ.
Yup. This is a good representation of my house. My basement is like a man cave. All gaming stations, billiard, a bar, has halfbath. All appliances (Tv, fridge, mini kitchen, everything you need without going upstairs. A giant Tv is a must.đ
That house in Connecticut (which is the most prosperous state in the whole US)is probably worth at least a million, which 95% of average Americans canât afford! Donât be fooled most people canât afford this house!
You can get very nice houses in central CT for a lot less than a million.
I live in northeast CT, and this house would probably be about $500,000 ish around here
Check the prices of similar houses in Connecticut right now in 2024! And where in Connecticut itâs located!đșđž
Where did you get that Connecticut is the richest state? According to Nasdaq, in 2023, Connecticut was number 8.
Connecticut is in no wat the most prosperous state, and that is a basic middle class home, which is where an average professional will live. It is not lower class, but it is not even close to upper middle class. CT is not even in the top 5 prosperous states.
On 7:35 Adam goes full on James May with "hello" I'm dying!!!!!
đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
Adam, you are more than welcome here! You can join the rest of us friendly bunch of Americans! Iâm a US citizen born and bred. It isnât perfect here for sure and we have our problems, but I would not choose to live anywhere else.
Love this!
I'd say financially supporting overseas genocides while our own citizens go hungry qualifies as quite a bit more than "problems". this place is just a third world country with a Gucci belt that worships a stick of wood used to torture their god to death.
you Only Say that because you never Left the US
@@SpkeNo1 well I will second his notion. And I have traveled to Canada, Mexico, The Caribbean, The Netherlands, Austria, Germany, France, The UK, Egypt, UAE, The Philippines, Japan, and Costa Rica. As well as traveling all over the continental USA including Hawaii and Alaska. And you donât have to take our word for it. The USA is overwhelmingly STILL the number one destination for immigrants and is still by far one of the most desirable passports on earth.
@@SpkeNo1 Nah, people who have never learned about any place else say dumb junk like "America has the best health care system in the world" or "America is the most racist country in the world" or "Everyone loves America" or "Everyone hates America" or "Where is Amsterdam? I looked all over the map of Scotland and couldn't find it." Nuanced views like "[place] is not perfect, but I would not choose to live elsewhere" come from people who actually know things.
Basements are basically the same footprint as the house for the most part. Basement is built first and the house is built on it. The basement walls are the footers for the house
I'm in Connecticut. It's southern New England east of New York.
You immediately jump to "sex dungeon". Lol
I refuse to speak on this
@@MoreAdamCouser My dude is pleading the 5th and he ain't even from America. lol
Too large for a sex dungeon. Those are normally tight and creepy but functional areas. So I'm told. This basement is best suited for a sex gymnasium.
He said âphallicâ and âsucculentâ in the same phrase. Iâm trying to not have a dirty mind.
đ€Łđ€Łđ€Łđ€Ł
More please; love seeing how happy these make you.
Hahaha more are coming!
The door in the basement most likely leads outside, where usually there's a set up steps leading up uncovered or covered by bilco doors. Another thing with basements, some houses have finished basements that act as game rooms or family rooms. In my parents house, one side of the basement was a finished family room and the other side was unfinished, used for storage and held the washer, dryer, furnace, and water heater.
Houses are different depending on what part of the country you live in. Iâm in Texas and we donât have basements usually due to the kind of soil we have and where the water table is. In the northeast part of Texas many houses do have storm cellars because that area is on the edge of Tornado Alley and people need a safe place to go.
Thrilled about Connecticut? Spring summer and fall consist of only 3 months, all the rest, bitter cold and wet. Holy smokes, that's a big basement. Cheers!
Connecticut is not that bad. Yes winter lasts until April but the summer is beautiful as well as the fall. I lived in CT for 3 years as a teenager and loved going to Long Island sound and taking ski trips in the winter. That said, Im a southerner and would never live north of North Carolina now.
@@scottc8127 You're right. Connecticut is not that bad if you're a kid. I loved the snow sports in New York State growing up. It's when you get older, the weather's not so friendly.
Seriously, 3 months of nice weather? I donât know what part of Ct you live in but we have warm/hot weather from end of April thru Oct/Nov. thatâs a lot more than 3!! Today is a lovely 72 degrees. Couldnât ask for better
If you want to see houses with full size basements, check out houses in Colorado. Almost every house in that state has one.
Nebraska has great basements, they need them for the tornadoes.
Also note that warmer regions of the United States that don't get much snow, don't have a frost line and therefore don't have a basement.
@@ambbergrantham5686 Iâve never heard of ppl having basements bc if snow. Thatâs odd.
Basements can get crazy. A lot of southern homes don't have them but so many cool types of houses out here!
The reason southern homes don't have basements is that a few inches below the grass is rock. It would take a few sticks of dynamite to blast a hole big enough for a basement.
Whereas the region I live in (30 miles from the beach) having a basement means you get a high risk of an unwanted indoor pool. The only way to only maybe get around that is with fully poured and properly sealed cement and even then itâs not a guarantee
@@ronaldjohnson7855 I wonder about that, because New York City and the surrounding areas are mostly built on top of granite. You can even see a lot of it poking out of the ground in many places, Central Park included. Most homes in NYC and the surrounding suburbs do have basements. The house I where I grew up in northern NJ had a full basement. Where I am now in Southern NJ, there are few basements because I'm much closer to the ocean - water table is too high, whereas my childhood home was in a rocky, mountainous area.
Hes got a bowl of sweets for luring children in made me laugh more than it should of đđ
Until you get to his bedroom and notice the binoculars on his window sill lol
His joke about that is related to the large basement.
I love that he turned the "lobby" or "foyer" into his favorite room, which is traditionally used as sort of a waiting room or room to go when you first enter a house and hang out before entering the real thing.
Would like the kitchen more with different stools, but that's just me. The rest of it was amazing. Love the cabinet space.
Pretty nice house with good land in CT and that's not cheap. Especially nowadays.
Yessss
I used to call my room like that was the Boyfriend room. I have a daughter and when she was younger and a boy came to pick her up for a date, thatâs where I sat him.
@@causticchameleon7861 lol I like that. The waiting room.
Typically Iâve heard it called either the sitting room or the formal living room though I prefer the older term of parlor
@@sevenember3332 Parlor is definitely the winner IMO
This is still definitely an above average home in the US. Not as luxurious as the one's we saw in the other video though.
It also looks like this is an older home that has been extended based on the interior. The original footprint was likely only the front living room, dining room and part of the kitchen. As well as the second floor and basement above and below, respectively.
My typical home/apartment is a short hall way that leads into a living room, next to the kitchen that has just enough for one person to be in and I have to use the sink in a addition to the miniscule counter when cooking. One bedroom with the bathroom off of it, so that any guest have to go into the bedroom to get to the bathroom. Cupboards and shelf space is limited. This configuration is typical for many Americans. With maybe a few added bedrooms for larger families.
Price per square foot in Albuquerque NM is currently $211. Home sold average price is $340,000. Most are built on cement slab, no basements.
We live in a desert area, so we have xeriscaping and water saving tactics. Most homes at that price are 3 bedroom, 2 bath. A fancy condominium downtown is costly. More rural areas are less expensive with possibly more acreage. Our metro population is almost 916,000, city only is 562K. Median household income 2021 was $60-75 K. (Resources vary)
State population is 2.113 million, in 121,697 square miles. 5th largest state, 36th in population. 35% of the state is federally owned, and there are a lot of Native American reservations-with casinos!
Many houses for middle class is around 600ft to 2000ft.
In this video of the attic many aren't like in this video. Many are like a craw space or unfinished. And most don't have stairs going to the attic mostly a pull down latter or a hole in the ceiling that's covered
Depends where you are. 600sqft is TINY and not typical. 800sqft to 2300 sqft is pretty typical
Glad to know I'm not the only one to name rooms by their color, not necessarily their function. We have a "green room" that is technically a bedroom (has a closet, entrance door, and escape window) but we use it full-time as an office. We have a "yellow room" that is a guest bedroom. And we have a "brown den" because it's completely paneled with dark wood (which is different than the "gray den/living room" which we keep nicer for guests). Looks like you hit 3K! Eager to see your place!
Fairly typical house. The NYC suburbs have very expensive towns all over. I grew up in one. Live in Manhattan now.
I see that you've started the long slide into videos about America... the food tasting ones are great and the 'life in the U.S.' one are good too. the 'American Stores' can be good if they actually show enough of the store for you to get a good feel about the sizes of stores in the U.S.... I look forward to more of your videos...
I was born in Connecticut!
Pronounced: connet-a-kit, 3 syllables, let it roll off your tongue without too much emphasis on pronunciation. It's on the East Coast, a small state and one of the 13 original colonies (now states) when America was founded.
There are many houses that look like that, some bigger, some smaller, some older, the best house in my opinion only is one that was built in the 60's, 70's or 80's and redone on the inside. They were built so much better, in terms of better materials. Basically, every city, town, state, has a variety of home designs, some better than others.
I live in a 1550 sq. foot home on the river, a floating home. Our moorage has six acres across the street where we have gardens and a garage with a loft. When we lived on land we had a 1700 sq. foot 3 bedroom/2 bath home with a double car garage. A home that size in my area of Portland, Oregon USA is $559,000. I have family in Bromely, England and their biggest complaint is heating/cooling/parking and the kitchen. Great video. The couple had a much larger home then most of us.
Connecticut is right next to New York and New Jersey on the East Coast. It is considered the southern most âNew Englandâ State. A lot of people who work in Manhattan live in Connecticut and commute daily.
Helpful hint : if you're going to be coming to Connecticut, bring LOTS of money. The house you're looking at, between the house and the property, cost at minimum 400-500k, maybe more. Also, prices and taxes are NOT going to be cheap on anything!! I personally would recommend another more reasonably priced state, where you could get a better deal for less money. New York, California, and Hawaii are probably the only states more expensive than Connecticut, to live in. Great show dude, and we'd love to have you here with us in America! Peace bro!! đđșđž
Although the size isn't over the top, considering the location, this is more of an upscale home with the architectural details and high-end Viking appliances. The basement is typical for that area; the one in the video is unfinished, many people will finish it as an additional liveable space. In South FL we don't have basements.
I grew up in Florida, and (outside of the house we moved out of on my third birthday), I have never lived in a house with a basement. Of course, places like San Diego, South Florida, Gainesville, Jacksonville, and Olympia (Washington, the odd man out) ordinarily have basements. In south Florida, the frost line (used to determine slab foundation depths) is three *inches.* In upstate NY, it's nine *feet.* Basements are an added expense that are not needed in warm climates.
11:28 Yeah, my attic is just a square hole in the ceiling that requires standing on a chair then standing on a bookcase to get into. Then you have to crouch walk on wood beams to get around, it's a whole workout.
Itâs wild đ€Ł
Connecticut is part of New England in the Northeast area of the United States, not far from New York City. Not too far from Boston too. Connecticut has some great antique shops.
There is a big variety in what could be considered a typical US home. Especially in the cities, either apartments, condos (like an apartment but with ownership of the unit) or townhouses are quite common. And still there are usually quite a lot of free-standing homes as well. See the opening credits of All in the Family (70s US sitcom) for a more typical urban neighborhood or free-standing homes. Or in LA, the homes shown in the movie King Richard are probably more typical - certainly compared to, say, the mansion in The Beverly Hillbillies. The average US freestanding house is about 2000 sq ft (186 sq. meters), but the average for newly built homes is 2300 square feet 213.677 sq. m). The home in the video is probably 4-5000 square feet, so well above average, though there are lots of neighborhoods comprised of houses just like this.
Connecticut is a state, yes, but a small one. It's next to Rhode Island, which is even smaller, and Massachusetts, which is slightly larger.
You can make one of those clocks yourself, just look up how to make a nixie tube clock - CZcams has lots of videos on it. This video has 4.1k likes so far, Adam, so you have to do a tour of your house!! The basement is usually the same size as the rest of the house because it's the same footprint. This one looks so large because it's the same as the floor above but without all the separating room walls. The unfinished space at the top of the stairs is the attic. A lot of people finish both their attics and basements.
It depends on where you live, even in the same state. I'm in Upstate NY and I've seen homes here that you can buy that you would need a lot more money if you were to buy them in other states. So don't assume all of NY is expensive for homes. The time you buy a home is a big factor as well. Time it right and you could snag a larger home. Just remember, you'll need to pay the taxes, heating and cooling on that larger home. :) Most basements where I live are 'finished'. Meaning they have painted walls, flooring, (carpet etc.) and furnished like another room. Some are 'walkouts', meaning they aren't completely underground.
one of the most sincere " holy shits" I've ever heard lol
That place Connect a Cut looks DAMN nice!
Connecticut (pronounced: Con-net-ti-cut) has some really great builders, very high quality, solid construction. Itâs a great place to live, expensive, except for a few areas that have high crime. Always check the local crime stats before considering a move. And some areas can have radon gas coming up through the ground, so that has to be checked too. The homeowner sounds Australian.
That's definitely much closer to a standard, modern house. It's a bit bigger than the average house here, but still a good representation of what the houses look like, how they're laid out, etc.
Like I said before, Wisconsin is a decent place to live. Winters are frigid. But the summers are mild. Lol
Wisconsin is absolutely beautiful. I lived in LaCrosse for around 8 years. Right on the Mississippi river. I miss the Midwest.
It's pronounced Connet icut. And it's in southern New England, near the Atlantic coast.And in some states, they put homes on a slab, not basement. Yes, big rooms, not too much cozy. But this house is huge.
The price of this house would vary massively by state. In Connecticut it might well be $800k+, in Utah my parents have a house this nice and they built it brand new within the last 10 years for about $400k. Each state is super different in price of housing
âKuh-neh-tuh-kitâ (thatâs how you pronounce our state :) ). Love your videos :)
I live in TN and am currently working on getting my home finished. Its about 600 square feet and will have a 20Ă20 Florida room added, as well as an enclosed front porch. Im building it on the 7 acres I bought several years ago, and when its finished I will be debt free. No rent, no mortgage. Adding the cost of the property with the cost of the house gives me a total of about $80k. Thats about average around here. Im in the boonies of Tennessee, and its a VERY rural, low income area with the exception of the big farms.
The 2 houses youve looked at so far are NOT typical homes in this area.
You just said you live in the boonies & thatâs not a typical home for you. Conneticut is not the boonies, and that is a typical home for people who live in the suburbs.
I'm in Tucson AZ, living in a 1465 sq ft house, not including the garage. Our previous home was 2,000+ sq ft., it was too big for 2 people.
Each state the median home prices varies. The area I live in Georgia the median home price that would be comparable to yours (3 bed 2 bath, detached house with a garage and 121 sq m.) would be close to 220,000. Also have a nice sized lot, about 1/4 (.25) of an acre, with a nice backyard/garden.
I moved to Bridgeport, CT in 2002, was paying about $875 for an efficiency apt, then moved a few years later into a one bedroom apt within the same complex a few years later for about $975 a month, finally at the age of 45, bought my first home in Meriden, CT for $175 K, a 90 year old home with almost a half acre of land, now valued at $295 K - was able to buy through a VA Loan
I grew up in Germany and still visit about every two years. I am now retired, and live in âUpstateâ of South Carolina. The affordability difference in America, is that housing is more affordable with even less regulation. đ
Great video adam my day always gets better whenever you upload
Thanks mate !
Your welcome adam
When I retired, I bought land and built a house in rural America, where prices are cheaper. It is 3,400 square feet on five acres. Four bedrooms , three bathrooms. It cost me $250,000. That was just four years ago. My backyard is 14,000 of National Forest (public land).
The average price of a house in Connecticut is $399k USD. That house was closer to a million, if not north of that.
I have never, ever seen a âbasementâ like that. Thatâs a whole extra floor man
Connecticut is on the coast above and to the East of NYC. It states a border with NY State.
Whether renting or owning a lot of online or famous people do whats called staging where they use rented furniture, decorations and appliances to make things look way better then they are. Plus as a big red flag I would say theres a massive difference in quality when it comes to just renting and owning in general. Its critical you keep in mind you are seeing these homes in there best possible state, with editing, photoshopping and possibly even rented furniture. Im not saying some things arent true but use extreme caution. A lot of the things I see in this video are the exception and not the rule meaning they dont apply to most people or might be very region specific.
Man please dont stop I love the way you do your content and your real reactions. I'll watch everything.
Thatâs one fancy schmancy house! This guy must make tons of money. Good for him.
Awesome for him!
That house is average for the area.
@@bsbrocks8 Location, location, location.
@@manxkin again, itâs typical for that AREA.
My house is bigger, but older. And my attic you have to go into the smallest bedroom's closet, then open a trapdoor and climb into it. There's no floor at all other than beams and insulation.
You did great with (state) Connecticut...this house, too, is bigger than average.
But seeing the Brits average...almost anything here is gonna be bigger than UK.đź
And btw...would love to have you here...welcome home.đșđžâ€ïž
Clue: If they mention Porches or BMWs...that tells you big$ is involved.
Connecticut is right next to Rhode Island below Massachusetts in the New England area of the USA
People typically redo the basement and turn them into mini apartments with a bathroom & kitchen. Basements in the US are almost always huge.
House designs are going to vary from region to region in the U.S. weather and landscape usually determines the practicality of the design Basically, if you can dream it, you can have it built.
Basements in America are usually the size of the house footprint because its the foundation that the rest of the house is built on.
Connecticut is pronounced "kuh NET uh cut". Family has been there since 1639. First thing - Fairfield and Litchfield Counties, closest to NY are overrrun with rich New Yorkers. Looks like this guy works for Sikorsky helicopter in Stratford. The rest of the state is blue collar manufacturing or insurance or pharma. Some towns close to NY have a minimum 2-acre zoning so that drives up prices also. That home was obviously updated, we have homes going back to the 1670s if you want..... but check for ghosts!
This home, in the southwestern part of the state ( 1 hour by train from Manhattan, NYC), would run into the upper 6 figures USD.
This is a large but typical type/style house found in the eastern USA. The house those British transplants have in Las Vegas is not typical of those found east of the Mississippi River in the USA, except maybe Florida.
Way he said Connecticut had me đ đ
Bro help đ€Ł
@@MoreAdamCouser easy..... just dont pronounce the "c" right before the "t". Pronounced like Connetikit.
that basement has a whole ass hallway and lobby area lmaoo that is definitely not normal hahahaha
In Connecticut, Massachusetts this is probably close to a million dollar home depending on the neighborhood. Where I am from in Northern NY not NY city it would be probably be 300 thousand at the top end.
I retired last year and sold my 1550 sq ft home in Florida. I bought a 1240 sq ft home in another state. I need an even smaller home. I want to free myself up from STUFF!
I don't live in a house that big đ but I work in a neighborhood called Kingwood (Northeast Houston) and every house is jaw dropping bro đ Some people have money to blow fr
This house is around a couple of million or so. most Americans do NOT live like this as well as the previous house video in Nevada.
Connecticut is Northeastern US. It's just across Long Island Sound from Long Island New York. If you look on a map, Connecticut is bordered on the left by New York State, on the right by Rhode Island, with Massachusetts on top.
The state is one of the original 13 colonies - itâs on the northeast coast & is beautiful in spring & fall canât be beat
Sounds like a Kiwi or an Australian
Connecticut is a state in "New England" . Northeastern US. I'm from Connecticut myself. Love your content. Keep it up.
I live in a double wide trailer on a permanent foundation, in a sardine can of a neighborhood. I'd love to have a 2 story house with an actual lawn. đ
If youâre happy brother, thatâs all that matters!
