YegorsTV (Channel on YouTube) Thread

Do you know about YegorsTV on YouTube? He is a native Russian who immigrated to the U.S.A. when he was 13, then he lived in southern California for about 25 years, then decided to move back to Russia a few years ago. He lives in Moscow now and says he is never going to leave. He is very happy now living there. He told his parents (who are happily still living in the U.S.A.) that he would die if he were to stay in the U.S.A. He couldn't take it. He says that it is impossible to make friends in the U.S.A. He owned real estate in southern CA and says the tenants are terrible and the process of evicting them is a nightmare or something like that. He says that he was prosecuted for recording his own phone call, and went to trial over it.
The main benefits of living in Moscow are:
- It is way easier to make friends there
- His cost of living is $350 total per month (but he bought an apartment, so has no rent...but he says an apartment is $400/mo.)
- $0.30 per loaf of high-quality bread
- All the food is fresh, great tasting, wholesome, etc.
- There are many parks, and at these parks, normal people casually relax and socialize
- The women are way better looking than in the U.S.A.
- There are no homeless people at all
- Everyone is a normal, healthy person, just going about their business in a normal way
- Medical services are free
- People are healthy and stable and normal and not as pretentious
- Beautiful summer weather
- You can buy an apartment for $30,000 (I am not sure where)
- Better, cleaner, safer, reliable, regular, etc. public transportation than in the U.S.A.
The negatives are:
- You can't criticize the government; you can't talk about the war
- You should learn martial arts "because you are going to need it."
- It is difficult to get a job, there is a lot of competition, the pay is $2-3 per hour to work in a fast food restaurant
- Brutally cold winters
- On his Russian language YouTube channel (and on Russian websites in general) there are many haters
Therefore, if you have a lot of savings, or if you can earn income remotely, you should live there.
I find Yegor (if that is his real name) fascinating, outstandingly respectable, because he is honest and values things that are good, that everyone should value. He is a sane person in an insane world.
