After making 1,100+ videos in 194 countries, this is one of my favorite videos thus far! Find out what $10 USD can get you in Venezuela!
In this epic adventure, I take you on the bustling streets of Caracas and through the beautiful beach towns of Morrocoy to see how many things I could purchase with $10 USD, which at the time I made this video, was 14.7 MILLION Venezuelan Bolivares... Right now, $10 USD is equal to 22 million Bolivares, it's absolutely crazy.
Despite Venezuela's economic crisis and massive hyperinflation, the cost of everyday items is getting more expensive, which makes it even harder for the local people to afford basic things like bread and water. It's really sad, and I hope the situation gets better because Venezuelans are some of the warmest and most hospitable people I've ever met. More to come soon from Venezuela!

Drew, I’m watching your videos of Venezuela and tears are springing in my eyes to see what has become of my other homeland, I had migrated to Maracay of Aragua state in 1975 as a child then in and out through those years but I haven’t been back there since I left in 1987. I cannot believe how bad it got, such a beautiful country. Thank you for even a glimpse.
When im reading this comment i feel really scared out my beautiful country....😭😭😭😭 same thing is going to happen to my country im sad..... im from 🇱🇰
This is a very interesting and informative video, thanks for sharing this here.
Are you someone who reads as much as possible about potential investments and asks questions about them? If so, maybe you don't need investment advice. However, if you are busy with work, children, or other responsibilities, or if you feel that you are not knowledgeable enough to invest on your own, seek professional investment advice.
Investment professionals offer a variety of services at varying prices. You can get investment advice from most financial institutions that sell investments, including brokerage firms, banks, mutual funds and insurance companies. You can also hire a broker, investment advisor, accountant, financial planner or other professional to help you make investment decisions
I like to know more about investment.
Some financial planners and investment advisors offer a comprehensive financial plan that evaluates all aspects of your financial life and develops a detailed strategy to achieve your financial goals.
Remember, there is no such thing as a free lunch. If professional financial advisors work for you, their efforts will pay off. Some of your possibilities are easier to see right away than others. However, in any case, always feel free to ask your investment professional how and how much is paid out.
Happy to meet Sherman Williams Trading, an expert I saw at a seminar and my life has changed since then
Which firm do you invest with, please? Invested through Goldman in the past, but they were not giving me what I wanted.
Last time I was in Venezuela (1999) 3 million bolívares could buy you a luxurious penthouse apartment in Caracas. Now an empanada and coffee. 🤦🏻♀️. Thanks for showing my homeland and place of birth.
Wow, that's insane. 1999 is just 22 years ago. Unimaginable and really mind boggling.
Lo mismo! Deje Venezuela en el 2000...deje un país q ya no existe! Hasta los billetes eran otros, la bandera era otra y el nombre era otro. Todavía conservo el pasaporte...era escrito a mano con la foto pegada...no tuve q sacar otro ya q me nacionalice a los 3 años y me he manejado con mi pasaporte de mi país actual (Australia) visite en el 2009 y me dejaron entrar y salir con el Australiano...todavía me da un poco de nostalgia Venezuela sus playas !

They are not happy being paid in bolivares because every day the money loses between 1 and 2 percent of its value
This is just so sad... how much further could this go?!😅
Most people are beginning to get paid in dollars. Obviously, nobody works for the official minding wage of $1. Bosses have to come to an unofficial agreement with their employees of around $100s or more a month if they want employees

i`ve been seeing your videos for so many years now but because of this i`m your newest subscriber, keep up the good work Drew! 🙂
Its crazy how we put value on paper. It looked like they're paying with monopoly money.
Plot twist: $10 in Venezuela is $10 worth of paper.
Close to use it instead of toilet paper.
As a venezulan I can confirm, 10 bucks is equal to 10 small sheets of shitted toilet paper.
Probably less😂
more like $10000 worth in paper considering how much paper they wasted when making the notes
Yeah LOL
I'm Colombian and I really appreciate you showing the reality of our brothers. It's heart breaking knowing the struggle the venezuelans how to endure right now, especially since they are so nice and have such beautiful country
BITCOIN
Hey I'm from Venezuela and this really means a lot to me, Colombians and Venezuelans are brothers and we will pull through anything together.
I am a colombian too! My mother was from bogota!
Colombian here too, this is very hurting to know daily they have to deal with these situations i whole heartedly hope everything gets better for our brothers...
He does not only show it. He pretty much wipes the poor people's faces with it. He should've used dollars and just had a counter on the side or something because it felt wrong thst he payed with the local currency.
My heart and prayers goes out to everyone in Venezuela.
i remember when i went to venezuela, the first location i went was the caribean beach. It was so beautiful and very enjoyable we even easily see aqua marine in the ocean without going further. The locals were very friendly and kind, even though the were really poor they gave us a bag of coconuts and open it for us to drink it. It was very fun until my alarm sounded at 6am waking me up and had to make me go to work.
I dont get a great feeling how he paid them in bolivares and they looked visibly unhappy about it. I expected drew to know better, he shouldve just put the exchange on the screen rather than actually use the currency
Yeah agreed - was so put off and disappointed all this for content...
Absolutely shameless. Not to mention exploitative.
Agree. Paying in Bolivares when you have dollars is cruel and humiliating. They have it hard enough already.
It was all about getting the max out of $10 in a economically devastated country. Hardly a worthy exercise, unless you are a narcissist.
He was super insensitive and egoistic in my opinion idk if to follow him anymore
You're a moron. A cop there earns about 1usd per month(as stated in the video). HE IS NOT A WALKING USD ATM MACHINE. , He paid 2$ for a moto taxi.. Which is about 100x what the real cost was. He did so because he was kind. The price of a Moto taxi in a partially developed city like Saigon, would cost like 60c USD for the same ride, so how the hell do you feel bad when he gave them a months wage?
We can all finally be a millionaire.... in Venezuela!

Good job, because of you going in the taking all that life risk , having an adventure, investing money in the country , you are literally helping the people !
Kudos ! Hats off !
If more people follow your path , Venezuela will recover abit
Bro you should have tipped the moto-taxi with a dollar bill if you were going to pay him with Bolivares lol
The look on that guy's face was like "dude, is this guy serious?!"
Yeah, instead he gave 5$ to sunglasses scammer.
ya should be a little bit more generous. give the guy a tip for having a safe trip
Ikr he basically paid him in toilet paper
I cringed hard at that. The videos are good, but Drew just has such embarrassing moments like this and it somehow makes it through the edit 🤣
I am a venezuelan in Canada. This video made me cry. I miss my country so much. I am happy that you enjoyed your stay there and you are showing the beauty pf Venezuela to the world.
@Drew Binsky fake
When I arrived in Caracas from Thailand 🇹🇭 they couldn't believe I was from the US. I found the country to be so affordable and the women were so polite.
How come you don't just move back
Every Venezuelans that are abroad should send money back home and build it back up again. Venezuela will be in a better place in 5 years and even better place in 10years and can make a come back in 20years. The People of sylhet done this, for the past 20-30 years
I thought nobody truly knew about Venezuela I am from Venezuela and it makes me really happy that you know about it thank you for this video
As much as I appreciate you spreading awareness about the crisis, not paying people in US dollars just for "the fun of it" is one of the cruelest things I have ever watched! It broke my heart to see their shocked faces as you gave them the stacks of depreciating bills and then, laughed and joked about it! Didn't even give them a tip!? Not cool, man, I don't know how you sleep at night....
I also Saw this. He literally had a few bills in his wallet
He’s a Jew after all
Drew: this cannot be safe. I'm so scared
Also Drew: films from the motorcycle, asks the driver questions and waves a flag while riding

😂😂😂😂 that’s what I was thinking. But sometimes people exaggerate to get people more excited about the content. As a Venezuelan, I can spot certain negative exaggerations. But as long as he also shows the many good things and things that make Venezuela great, regardless of its horrible government, I like his videos.
Classic bigot behaviour
Not happy he gave him the home currency after making a video on saying that it’s worthless!? Why not pay him in dollars did you see the guys face
CZcamsr.. Love to act.
Lot of lies...

I feel like by paying with bolívares (cash) it’s like underpaying them because everyday their money devalues. They use dollar as an informal currency.
Yeah I agree, I also hope he gave that kid some money. For most Americans 1$ is absolutely nothing but its a lot for these people and can help them out a lot
Why? They would spend it on drugs/alcohol. Poor people are poor for a reason and should stay so.
Incredible 😍❤️❤️❤️
It's really unfortunate what the people in Venezuela have to go through. What drew's videos show though, is that there's always a good side to a country. He shows the world that not every country depicted as being bad is bad, he shows that there is good in each country, & i think that's important as to help not create stereotypes about other countries and their people/governments. Of course there will be exceptions, but for the most part, I think that there is good in every country. Thank you, Drew. ☺

Its obnoxious when they pay in bolivares when theyvcan pay in dollars and not be an ass to the locals
Yeah this video was beyond cringe. My only hope is that after the camera stopped rolling they actually paid them in USD like decent people.
@@zuppe33 they probaly didnt not to mention they were just oozing privilege and spoiled by rich daddy vibes
@@squiddyzbattlecats1167 why pay in dollars when thats not their original currency? They have their own money
@@subaruwrx8617 Because as the locals mentioned, paying them in their own currency is almost worthless due to its worth when compared with the dollar. So a sensible and honest thing would have been to pay the locals in dollars and not continue exploiting their situation simply to make a youtube video.
I like how you pronounce all the spanish words correctly in this video 👌
When you live in the Caribbean and pretty beaches don't surprise you anymore.
I have literally never seen a country that doesn’t accept payments in their own currency 😲 this is mind-blowing?!
Zimbabwe,
Hope that helps
Most Caribbean countries prefer usd over local currencies due to the tourism
@@jadworld4125 but the Caribbean countries usually peg their currencies to the dollar anyways so it doesn’t make a big difference
@@jadworld4125 really?? Very interesting I have to say.. do they tend to charge you more if you pay in $ ?
@@VASIGTravelingLifeinLondon don’t listen to him 😂 that’s a lie
The saddest thing about the video is that today, $ 10 in Venezuela is actually 23 million bolivars.
Oh, that is insanity.
Are you for real? It sounds the value has gone up 2x
@@avocado1700 Unfortunately the price of the dollar increases exponentially every month, the worst thing is that the services that are charged in dollars also increase their cost in dollars. So the bolivar is devalued and in a certain way within the country we also get the dollar to devalue.
I'm Venezuelan and I confirm this.... /:
What is this real??? Damnnn what the hell happend to your country men its sad.
[7:33] the mototaxi face to say "en serio mamawebo" you pay me this shit!!!! JAJAJJAJAJJAJAJA
I’m happy that he gave so many boliveres to that bike taxi person!!
At least you could have paid people there in dollars when they r struggling so hard with inflation instead forcing them to take bolivares
Yes yes at least 2 dollars per every use 10 planes 20$ you will have more viewers and money from the videos
is that US soil? if its not..use their currency..
@@sputnikv5435 For a wonderful miracle, you can use dollars in other countries, not only in the United States
@Kira yeah wtf is wrong with the people in the comments
Drew, as much as I love your work and admire you, this was a pour decision.
When you pay these poor people in Bolivares. You know the situation. What you pay them now in their currency will be worth much less in a few days, or even in a few hours...plus, it's so inconvenient to carry that much paper money!!
It's very inconsiderate and selfish to use such a dire situation in people's lives for entertainment. I found it disappointing and painful to watch each time you were paying in bolivares. Very very inconsiderate, selfish and cruel.
Drew, we all make mistakes, and this one is on you. Please, do not do anything like that again.
He didn’t make a mistake. He also made a 20 minute video showing a million people the crisis going on there. I had no clue about this till I watched this video.
You sound crazy
užtilk
I agree with this comment.
@@jecise you also sound crazy.
GOOD VIDEOS MY FRIENDS
the face off motor driver is priceless..hehehehe they don't want venezuela money
If Drew started vlogging some years before, then he could have done a few quadrillion dollars challenge in Zimbabwe.
Why can't it be done now?
@@heehee2360 they don't have a currency
@@thegamerkhanYes, because they use USD
@@thegamerkhan then?
@@heehee2360 then u cant get few quadril

Drew: "How much [money] do you have?"
Man: "Zero"
Drew: - laughs in his face -
@Drew Binsky Haha impersonation go BRRRRRRRR
@Drew Binsky scammer you obviously aren't Drew
Imagine going to an impoverished country and choosing to pay people in money you knew would be worth less the very next day just to make a youtube video about how funny it is that their economy is completely falling apart and line my own pockets. Privileged POS.
He would have paid $10-20 Dollars for those glasses in the states and he could absolutely afford them for the $8 he asked for, but hey, he know the guy's disadvantaged and doesn't have much prospects might as well hustle him down another 3 dollars.
Imagine being completely able to pay people fairly but instead taking advantage of there tragic situation.
Obviously Drew Binsky is Jewish and it shows! Privileged POS
@@gannicusnobody7782 he doesn’t owe them anything dawg. He’s only giving them what they’re asking for. Why don’t you go and help them yourself?
@@justasingledoor5178 Actually, he owes them whatever price they charge for their services. The mototaxi driver asked Drew for $2, and instead Drew paid him 3 million bolivares against his wishes. That is NOT the same thing.
This video was filmed in December. 4 months later, $2 would still be worth $2, but those 3 million bolivares are now worth $1 and 30 cents...
Even worse, Drew is American and has easy access to US dollars. There is absolutely no reason why he should be paying the locals in an unstable currency against their wishes. The fact that he did so solely for the CZcams views is absolutely shameful.
Omg drewwwww i'm so greatful for your website, omgggggggg i'm speechless mann ift's cost less than my usually traveling app in Indonesia thank you so so much drewww you're the best anddd pls come back to Indonesia and try to live here 😂😂😂 it'll be awesome
That Venezuela girl helping her mum to sell in that shop looks just so beautiful
Pain to see such a beautiful country in the world's worst economic crisis!
Socialism bro .
They rank almost last on the ranking of economic freedom . I lived in argentina I know the hell it is to live in a job market that's declining
@@madhavireddy1792 Last crisis 2001, it took until 2005~ .. but we had a good decade of development before that .. now this time it can take a decade , and some economists are talking about 25 years
Every oldschool runescape player needs to watch this. So we know what goldfarming gold in the game is worth to the Venezuelans.
I saw this video and instantly thought about old school runescape gold farmers
I honestly don’t even mind them doing it. I support it. If a gold farmer in Venezuela can make enough money to support themselves and their family when their government refuses to look after them then respect to them. If them doing that means that little Johnny can buy a Bandos Chestplate on mommy’s credit card and I see him flexing it at the GE then I will smile knowing that there are people in the world taking control and making that paper in creative ways. Well done.
@@jacobholland5864 actually why people and jagex don't want people doing it because when they sell gold they little bit by little bit crash economy because if we take runescape 3 for example they're economy is very bad
@@gnome4273 Correct. And maybe this video can be an example as to why people should care more about the economy of a country instead of a video game. Who cares if RuneScape’s economy crashes? Real people are suffering. People need to be less self-entitled and understand the reality of the world.
@@jacobholland5864 Actually, Runescape has taken some people out of the streets.
I’m from Venezuela and my grandparents and the rest of my family live there and we normally send them around 20 dollars every week so they can buy all the food and medicines
Oh. That's cute. 🥲❤️
