My man's straight up opened a beer with his phone lol
Though the same shit
Sometimes that's how you have to open a beer 🍻
its actually quite common with iphone users
From selling jewelry, to fighting other people and going to africa. This guy gives us real content. I fucking love u for doing this Trax. Please keep the content coming.
Some people obey there master
How Traxxs videos dont hit the algorithm is crazy! Done so dirty!! Stands on buissness and i respect the hell out of it!!
I just watched the whole video, this was truly amazing to see Max change people’s lives. You have to respect this man 100% for what he does best.
When jews show up to foreign nations in search of natural resources it never ends up changing people of the host nations lives in a positive way. Wake tf up. There’s a reason they were kicked out of 109 countries over 1,020 times. They’re vampires and vampires can’t feed on other vampires
Instead of doing money showers of $10,000, that $10,000 could bulid a well down there in Sierra Leone, you don’t have too but think of it Trax my man 🙌
Yes, but the money stays with the people not to the country
@@Xx_Martha_xX money will stay with them temporarily! the well will be there for longevity. Comparably, the quote goes, “Feed a man a fish, he’ll eat for a night, teach a man to fish, he will eat for the rest of his life.” All love and peace Martha! 💕
Better than nothing! G-d bless you Max🙏
I literally went yesterday to start my precious metal collection, I really like what you’re doing, the way you conduct this, you’re not even close to being done I don’t think..
It was dope the first time you guys uploaded it and it's even better the second time. One love from beautiful Trinidad and Tobago ❤ 🇹🇹.
Beautiful people. Beautiful school. Beautiful country. Thank you for the video. ❤
I really appreciate that you documented this whole trip and still condensed it into a single 30 minute video. Most other channels would split a trip like this into many smaller videos to game the algorithm but your videos get straight to business just like your jewelry store. I appreciate the content and love learning about gems and precious metals on this channel. This is the kind of content people need to see
Thank you Trac for showing the life out there..appreciate my condition now even more. To EVERYONE..Stay up, stay humble & hustle hard and have "GRATITUDE".
wow that was pretty darn awesome THANK YOU for taking the opportunity and time to video the trip - we are extremely blessed to have what we have, people are people no matter what part of the globe we go to and for you to bring that in a way of a vid to your 3.24 million subscribers is great
Still learning. Thank you Max, for helping the world and for all these Presidential secrets!
Rapaport is brilliant! He just turned the late “blood/conflict” diamonds into an urban redevelopment and philanthropic business. Like let’s use resources to help people vs. the lab grown diamonds concept.
Well Done Max..Your a good man with a good Heart!! Wish more people of your stature would do the same!
Loving the content TRAX! All the best from the UK 🇬🇧
Trax you’re a legend I’m from Sierra Leone and this video is great thanks for shining a light on such a small but beautiful country with rich history I love Sierra Leone 🇸🇱😍
My Man TRAXNYC, 1st Class all the way baby...
My man Trax! What a beatiful country, your steps are being guided by our lord jesus!
lol..extreme delusion
capitalize that next time
Incredible journey, love the insight into diamond mining! 🌍
This is the best video I’ve seen… hope your health is ok you sounded low! But I think that I value this… I give 30% of my American income to the public in Marrakech Morocco… I think that god willing charity will be the solution to any issue! Thank you for your work… God bless you!
This one was epic boys! Always spreading love❤ ,its amazing how you can change someone’s life with so little…
Teaching and Giving...thats a beautiful mission Max! More power to you brotha
that was sick ! def should do more adventure videos like this !
Great job
Your are aGREAT GUY
AND WILL ALWASY BE BLESSED..
CANT WAIT TO COME AND ME YOU.
NYC TRAXX
I hope the diamonds really do somehow help the people. human beings need to be better to one and than we were in our infancy. I know in the past they have brought great strife... luckily we have traxx and the other dudes he's talking with .. especially trax you are the example of how the industry as a whole should be.
Like the way you pop up the beer bottle using your phone ,📞 that’s a new one.
Trax is a G. Raised right. Respect.
Hey man I live on the other side of the country but I just wanted to say it warms my heart to see you just give away money, and fuck is it hilarious when they don’t take it and you call them stupid or somthin
Thank you for showing the world my country
You guys deserve the break/work journey. Enjoy it while you aren't in the office. Keep that kid close to ya. That sun was kicking Max's ass, haha, never seen him so quiet before.
Well done from your friends from South Africa 🇿🇦
Fantastic video thank you kudos ❤❤❤
wow enjoyed every minute of this.
Thankyou.
is this a re upload? I coulda sworn I’ve seen this before.
Maks always on his grind and That is what I respect.
Tego Calderón a famous rapper from 🇵🇷 stopped wearing 💎 💎after he went here.
Who, that 80 year old black reggaton singer
@@RicardoMartinez-ne1re he’s not 80 he’s 52 I used to date him a while ago. He’s a LEGEND I will ALWAYS have love for dat man 💯
Haha they used to play his music all the time on mun2 😂 remember that shit?! Holy hell im old
@@dewmontain123 lol yes I remember
I saw the documentary. And Johnny Dang was and is making millions off sierra leon
You’re making your way to the site holders! Movin up man
Have a feeling pastor momo wasnt the one who actually found the diamond lol. You know some kid found it and had to give it to the "boss". Besides that this was a lovely video. Very eye opening
Incredible, Well done Max
That sunset was amazing looking
That's a bad ass business moto "to give and to learn" keep up the good work Trax and yes you should do another video like this but on gold.
Max you need proper attire for a place like that. Boots preferably lol you’re doing a great thing keep it up. I am a fellow customer of trax and will always support knowing your making this mission to help the people. Good luck in your future journey. Bismillah
"I wanna chill, can you blame me." Live your best life Max
Nico introducing me to your channel was such a good thing lol..
Thanks for giving to the locals
Super sharing my Friend ❤️🎉😊 thanks ❤🎉
De Beers specializes in diamond mining, retail, trading & industrial diamond manufacturing. - From inception in 1888 until the start of the 21st century, De Beers controlled 80-85% of the rough diamond distribution & was considered a monopoly
moisannites is chinas answer to diamond cartel, and they are doing serious damage
great stuff hope to see more like this was good to see this side of the business
Congratulations for 20 years
Trax you look of your face enjoy your trip buddy good kind regards Gregory Lee from Melbourne Victoria Australia 🇦🇺 😀 👋👍.
How drunk can you get before a flight
Drunk
Flight pills
just to being enable to find your seat and not stink like an toilet.
He's Jewish. He don't care cause he's an asshole from Brooklyn
He's Russian and opened a beer with his phone, he's fine.
Keep being a great human, You give humanity hope.
I saw this video you made about my country it's fascinating. Can you a country with diamonds and it's the poorest in the world
Based, honest, compassionate…Trax u the G
traxx you are awesome for the giveaways
I’ll love to go on an adventure with you guys 🙏🏼💙🥰
Trax is just dope
Love the video keep it up! You've got me addicted to gold and silver. Wife's not happy but I'm picking up my first kilo of silver tomorrow. The wife blames you my brother haha love the energy man. Wanted to buy the silver from you but I'm up in Canada lol
She should be happy because that kilo will appreciate much more and quicker than your $ sitting in a bank. Good for you man, biggest bar of silver i have is 10oz
Haces Gran labor, gracias!!
Yo Traxs love it Bud... Thanks for always putting out the most interesting content. Come on up to Maine and plant some of those gold buzz to find. We got to North woods up here bud.
Beautiful VLOG ❤
It was a golden journey...
great video man! Needed a lot of courage to get there... thats where the bottles of while wine come in on the 1st class airline haha
👍 👌 great. Visited Sierra Leone 🇸🇱 in 1974 and hasn't changed much😢. These poverty ridden people need help in education and agriculture, initially. Please help them establish schools, that'll be a greater service to humanity. I'll certainly contribute my two cents, too🎉.
The homie maksud is a straight OG Hustler. Imagine coming from the streets like any of us to where is he is now with no handouts...im tryn get established to even a quarter of where he is but best believe if i seen him handing out gold or silver I'm politely taken it lol yo TRAX I live in R.I put me on!
Amazing trip Max. Come to Australia and I'll take you prospecting for gold 😊
Buenas tardes mi profe bienvenido por el señor. Gracias por ser una persona tan humilde. Y enseñarnos cosas buenas y positivas. Que dios me lo cuide a usted familia grupo
Amazing bro amazing..... Sure I will see you bro 👍😁
King Trax!!! God bless and be safe 🙏
Love these videos
Can’t wait to see him in person
OH WOWWWW IM PRAYING THING'S TURN AROUND FOR ME SOON... BECAUSE AFTER HEARING YOU SAY SOME OF THOSE MINERS DON'T MAKE ANYTHING IN AN ENTIRE YEAR...BREAKS MY HEART...I WOULD LOVE TO FUND THEM IN THEIR TIME'S OF NEED.....GOD BLESS THEIR HEARTS ❣️❣️❣️

@@slickman5969 Thanks man
got malaria a few months after i got home from a 3 weeks holiday in Uganda and Kenya worst experience ever got picked up in ambulance and was at the hospital in 3 weeks
you never gonna see me in Africa again that's for sure that malaria shit is no joke
did you take the malaria pills or get any shots? omg that sounds awful. the onset being delayed months is scary
@@tfh5575 yaa 3 months before and you have to eat a pill each day and one extra each week you are in the land
@@tfh5575 yaa pills each day and one extra each week and a shot month befor departure
Another great inspiring video re-upload or not love from London UK,
When are you opening a London office/store to handle business in the UK and Europe and not miss them calls have them answered in real time?
If it ever happens I'm willing to work 16 hrs shifts and even sleep in the office until it pops..
Keep up the grind Traxnyc 👊🇬🇧
I love your work
Trax is a baller.
Now this is dececontent . Ie informative
No way my man gave a presentation straight from chatgpt. What a chad
Classic view 👍🏻
yo max is cool....respect for this....jewelry is beautiful but we need to help these men....
Trax, what company do you suggest for the brokies, when buying a gram of gold. I dont have a ton of money to buy a ounce but i can buy a few grams here and there and as they say, out of mind out of sight.
Trax took it to another level good video brother
Another adventure please Wuhuuu!
Awesome stuff Trax ❤
Next should be going to the Sapphire mines of Sri Lanka👍
Man’s healing up From the fight
Was lookin for the fight comments😂 Respect!! Iykyk
This was all before the fight
Safe travels wherever u go G 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
this feels like propaganda
Trying to get people to buy natural diamonds again, instead of buying lab ones for cheaper and put all these people in these towns in Africa out of business.
Could be. But I don’t know any other jewelers doing what Trax does. Showing the BTS of the business, giving away precious metals, settling beefs with fists even haha.
The mega rich are probably saying stop pushing lab diamonds as they have too many millions invested
That might be because of all the fakes out there, but these guys are actually helping the people. And I guess it depends on your definition of propaganda.
@@CathartesAurai guess this is fair too
Great work trax!!
Awesome content guys.
And the west coast cure backpack is sweet 🔥🔥
This was very interesting 👍🏻
your such a cool dude bro and humble
I just found out about you seeing you fight on street beefs. Had no clue you got a bunch of subscribers. I’m from Boston, so I hate New York sports but I love New York City. When I’m there next I’ll swing by see what’s up maybe buy some
The method of throwing money is not fair
Yeah it was disrespectful. But assuming Thrax grew up in NYC someone has to teach him why it's disrespectful. The environment where people grow up create some of there manners ,in NYC that's normal since it's a business district and people got no time to do hand outs so they just toss things on the street who ever wants it takes , no question nothing just take it and move on like nothing ever happend.
Trax doesn't see it as disrespectful. He's literally showing them love the only way he knows how. That's an NYC thing. He didn't mean to be disrespectful even though he shouldn't have done it that way. I feel him though.
Trax had da pinky out takin a drink. Classic
Good video bro. Thanks
Good video bro alot of people dont show this
Aye that boy Trax gangster fr🤣🤣🤝🏽🔥
Well done Trax.
Trax = 🐐
