there's literally zero reason to buy natural diamonds anymore as a consumer. No one is going to know unless you try and sell it, which most people don't.
You are right. I used to be a collector of natural diamonds, but the rise of lab-grown diamonds has impacted the value of my collection. So, I decided to liquidate it and venture into real estate. In January, I acquired homes in Malibu for $52 million, and the returns on investment far exceed what I earned as a collector.
How did you grow your portfolio to $52m, I'm impressed, I have a lump sum in the bank, the rates are not impressive so I'm moving it, what's your cash flow like?
I have a financial advisor (trader) she grows my liquid assets and I reinvest the weekly payouts back into real estate and long-term ETFs like VOO and SCHD. I have also started acquiring some tech ETFs, including IITU and IUCM.
Lab grown are real the difference is lab grown are extracted in a lab whereas natural diamonds were naturally formed by the earth. Lab grown are real don't let the name fool you.
@@Godawgsback2back You sound stupid...its like comparing a ice cube with water from a spring and water from your sink...they both look exactly the same and function the same in literally every possible way, so who in their right mind would give any shit.
Love Patrick a real prince. Love his diamonds even more and can see a lot of diamond stores being very queasy with their overly expensive diamonds whilst Patrick and Co at the Diamond Store makes big flashy diamonds for everyday wear, which I want. Brilliant video Michael and Adam.
I'd love to see Peter Marco's facial expression if Michael was to come into his store wearing Patrick's sunglasses 😂 Patrick looks like Rod Stewart and sounds like Barry Manilow!
Emeralds, emeralds,and more emeralds. Ya, I like emeralds. Another A-1 video from the A-1 Hollywood in-the-know duo. Great job. More mansions, more watches. 👑🎩🥇🕒🏡
I would do lab grown with gold for everyday wear and when it comes to marriage or special gift I would do earth grown for value and passing down to family! 💯
It gets wild when you realize natural diamonds are a monopoly and their prices depend on the company’s excavating/supplying them (lab grown) PS: there’s planets that rain diamonds lol
Michael.. Adam made a joke about “ funeral “ at the beginning of this video and I’m still laughing… Guys you’re making me laugh all the time with your jokes 🙏🙏🙏🙏🤣🤣🤣🤣😅😅😅😅😅😅
This was a refreshing look at the lab grown diamonds. They definitely still cost a lot but it's still early days for the technology and I hope in the next 10-20 years they get cheaper and cheaper!
Lab grown has been a talking point for quite a while. It’s a personal choice. We’d rather have one really special piece with organic diamonds than a bunch of lab grown.. but again everyone is free to choose whatever they like.
High heeled trainers! hehehe Some of these guys are hilarious. If he wasn't rich and they were all cubics, everyone would be like, 'look at this idiot!' out loud instead of in their heads.
I like jewelers that are open to selling lab grown. It's the same thing. The Diamond district just doesn't want people to realize their false scarcity of natural diamonds to affect their profit.
Hello 👋 How are you earning such weekly? I was born a Christian, and sometimes I feel down on myself because of low finances, but I still believe in God.
It's great to see Elizabeth R. Nelsen getting recognized here. Starting with just $2000 and now being highly recommended due to the good returns is truly motivating!
OMG 😱 Michael me and my great family are going crazy for your great videos and thank you for the information 👍 that you always have to offer for us.. verry cool stuff
I'd love to know more about lab grown stones. Surely if they're from the lab they should all be D IF ? Is there a process for growing inclusions? It's a lot of fun watching your channel! Mental money but fun to watch.
I upgraded (or downgraded) my wifes natural to lab grown and she loves it. Also, it's GIA D VVS1 Excellent so not only is it bigger for less but the specs are notably better. For something to keep, lab grown all the way. For value retention I feel natural will be better because of the limted supply even if demand is impacted by the lab grown market. With lab grown having infinite supply and increasing demand the value will likely continue to fall, possibly to the point that natural becomes favored again for the connection to higher value.
If you plan on keeping them forever, go Lab grown. If you even have the slightest possibility you’ll ever need to sell them in a pinch, forget it. They laugh you out of the store when you go to sell
As much as I've personally always been against fake jewelry, I'm convinced to go for a Lab grown solitaire diamond for anything over 1ct. & wouldn't be ashamed, I'd tell people it's lab because they still do cost $$ and are valuable
If you appreciate gemstones for their monetary value and “status” only, I regret to inform you you are an extremely shallow and naive person and do not deserve to appreciate them at all.
The fact theyre exactly the same makes buying earth grown ones silly in this day in age. My wife gets way more compliments on here semi-precious stone rings from other ladies to top it off.

She is well known as - Diana Leayani Lara. please do your own research.

That is funny !
Lol...
Hahahaha

Who the old lady in the shinny jacket?

He is a Oueer like Michael , so its normal to him
Facts!!! 😂
@@JabocTheJewoh wow. Didn’t know that about Michael
This guys a gem, I thought Michael was going to say he’s a diamond. 😂
At 0:24. Michael has finally met someone more flashy than himself.
Love Patrick a real prince. Love his diamonds even more and can see a lot of diamond stores being very queasy with their overly expensive diamonds whilst Patrick and Co at the Diamond Store makes big flashy diamonds for everyday wear, which I want.
Brilliant video Michael and Adam.
Love you Michael.. Thank you 4 taking your time out for us with these videos ......keep up the good work.....X MAKES TUESDAYS FUN
I'd love to see Peter Marco's facial expression if Michael was to come into his store wearing Patrick's sunglasses 😂
Patrick looks like Rod Stewart and sounds like Barry Manilow!
Great video! Patrick is always great! What a character! Always in an upbeat mood. His store looks nice. Lots of space. 👍👍👍
70 years old men love to wear sunglasses inside.
Just like joe biden
70 year old millionaire who does whatever he wants
@@TEE1998 It's still lame no matter the bread.
To be fair my dad sometimes forget his prescription glasses at home so some folks have to wear the shades indoor
And? Lmao it's because they literally do not care what anyone else may think. Also these guys are decamillionaires.
If you bring Jacob together with Patrick, you'll have a big argument...I'll go for the lab-grown!
true !!!!
And bring Peter Marco as a mediator
Hopefully Patrick doesnt like raping women like Jacob does ("allegedly")
@@pedroprieto6885 that would be the video of the year!
Great info, on Diamonds , thank you, guys!
More house tours!
I want that jacket ❤😂
u think u do, but u dont. Imagine cleaning it. Also your belly is too big for it, be honest!

Interesting, real diamonds but much less expensive, Michael always looks good x

Michael Jacob and the 6 Million round diamond earrings - Best scene
Love patrick, need to more of him. ❤
Looks like my gradeschool vice principal.
It gets wild when you realize natural diamonds are a monopoly and their prices depend on the company’s excavating/supplying them (lab grown)
PS: there’s planets that rain diamonds lol
What planet rain’s diamonds? 😂
Lab grown any day ❤
Oh oh , someone is going to go over his data usage on his phone ☎️ 😂
Love this guy! I have no doubt that if I go into his store, I am gonna end up buying something.
Adam was like, "What do I know, I'm just a camera guy!" 😂😂😂
The lab diamond videos are 🔥🔥
Michael.. Adam made a joke about “ funeral “ at the beginning of this video and I’m still laughing… Guys you’re making me laugh all the time with your jokes 🙏🙏🙏🙏🤣🤣🤣🤣😅😅😅😅😅😅
Lab grown have no blood on them…. GO labgrown💪🏻👌👌
Neither does natural grown these days. What ever makes you feel better about your purchase. 💪🏽👌🏽👌🏽
@@Justsome_Randomdude u also believe in the tooth faerie?
@@Justsome_Randomdude You might want to do some research on Sudan/Sudan war
I’ve done research. You should too. Not all natural diamonds are blood diamonds. Like I said, what ever makes you feel better about your purchase.
there's no blood on the diamonds coming from canada you muppet
This thumbnail 😂😂😂😂😂
mr beast style 😂
Yeah, whoever applied the teeth whitening on his photo applied it to his gums too. Grey gums lol
Patrik is a diamond himself
always smiling when i see thim
we need more people like him

Michael, I loved you in Beverly Hills Cop: Axel F, what a great cameo.
What ? Where ?
Exactly what part ?
i can’t believe it 😂
Exactly what i thought lol
Same thing I just posted!!

Maybe I should go to ur church

This dude will be in GTA 6 for sure 😅
Diamond geezer 😎👍🇬🇧

Adams suttle "FU" to Michael, with the camera guy line...classic
Love all your content Michael your a real genuine guy thats has everyone’s best interests at heart.

He looks what i imagine Michael’s dad looks like.
Michael 2024, "let's make fashion great again" lol
Keep ‘em coming Michael!
Wow, Michael with the diamond knowledge 🤔🤔 😎😎. Love the energy in this video 💯

Exactly, there is no shortage, it’s artificial
De Beers must be sweating 😅😂
I'm favored, $22,000 every week! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America.
Hello 👋 How are you earning such weekly? I was born a Christian, and sometimes I feel down on myself because of low finances, but I still believe in God.
It's Elizabeth Regina Nelsen doing she's changed my life. A BROKER- like her is what you need.
Wow! I'm kind of in shock that you mentioned expert Elizabeth Regina Nelsen. What a coincidence!
It's great to see Elizabeth R. Nelsen getting recognized here. Starting with just $2000 and now being highly recommended due to the good returns is truly motivating!
I'm really interested, does she work with clients outside the USA, I'm from France?
OMG 😱 Michael me and my great family are going crazy for your great videos and thank you for the information 👍 that you always have to offer for us.. verry cool stuff
Lab grown is basically like IVF for diamonds 🤷🏻♀️ I don’t see the problem with buying them
Then you don’t know enough about them, waste of money
@@Ryan.Kooper elaborate
@@Ryan.Kooper well if that’s the case then enlighten me
@@jaydeliciosoit's basically worthless after you buy it. The depreciation for it is crazy.
@@Rocky_4477 Because a bunch of old stuck in their way dummies think it's somehow not a real diamond.
michael is thinking,i should sell all my diamonds
Hey hey, Nice to see Producer Michael's dad in the show again!
😜🤟🇬🇧

Absolutely false. Feel free to contact us and we will give you all the education you need to make an informed decision.
Not really. LGDs can be SI2 and M
What a genius episode 😂
I've never seen Michael over-matched!
Do NOT get Patrick and Jacob in the same room; LMAO.
Educational
Is the guy showing the diamonds wearing a Breitling? Solid watch!
safe hands
British Donald Trump and American Rod Stewart. The collab I didn't know I needed but I love it.
Hey guys loving the channel!
You are both so great - think Adam should get more screen time though. You two are hilarious together :)

I'm still waiting for the last give away watch for subscribing to your German friend. No winner yet. 🤔

Best thumbnail ever. I wish I can deliver thousands like 👍🏻
Patrick’s great. What a nice fella.
The website is down.
Guys, thank you for the new video❤ everytime watch with joy
If you plan on keeping them forever, go Lab grown. If you even have the slightest possibility you’ll ever need to sell them in a pinch, forget it. They laugh you out of the store when you go to sell
why not buy a "used" lab grown diamond the ? for free haha
well you will lose your shirt and pants on resell of the earthgrown also :)
@@Spazik86 true, but not nearly as bad though. Lab grown is legitimately 1% -2% what you paid.
@@PantonePapi So what you're saying is - buy pre-owned lab diamonds and pay nothing for it, with no risk of depreciation?
@@CrummyFSY basically
Michael, now you have to worry about looking so similar to Donald.
Do it do it even if u don’t wants buy one😂😂😂
Michael and Patrick definitely first met in a clothes store.
Michael got style 👍🏼
Michael is so smart
I love the DJT vibe.
When Crocodile Dundee went insane 😂
Never mind Drumpf, you look like Serge in the new Beverley Hills Cop.
Where's Diesel dog 🐶

Bingo. It’s a diamond. There is no debate. It’s not synthetic, it’s not glass. It’s a 100% real diamond.
If you value stones just for their monetary value you are an extremely shallow person and do NOT deserve to value them in the first place.
If you appreciate gemstones for their monetary value and “status” only, I regret to inform you you are an extremely shallow and naive person and do not deserve to appreciate them at all.
"boyfriend and girlfriend or whatever nowadays..." :)
Wow I just whatsapped him that I loved him. He replied instantly. He is a unique smart inteligent guy. Not easily influenced by fear of masses.
I like it when people are original like these two.
Michael keeps roasting that guy
Patrick is such a coooooool dude..definitely a rock starr godbless
Patrick is MIchael's Final form. 😂
Somebody out dressed Michael 😂

Super!!! Super!!! Super!!!
PM thank you for being a geek and knowledgeable person, may I assume it could be one reason for your wealth accumulation today..I admire you, Mike
I know where I'm getting my next diamond jewelry from❤❤
When talking with Jacob, no matter how much Michael say, diamond price is slightly higher. With this guy, it's always slightly lower.
Love the new thumbnail guys
these people live in another world ...........
The fact theyre exactly the same makes buying earth grown ones silly in this day in age. My wife gets way more compliments on here semi-precious stone rings from other ladies to top it off.
