Watching from the UK here. One thing that impresses me about these guys is how they don't seem bitter and don't seek to immediately blame someone or something else for the poverty they're experiencing
-
Those kids seemed genuinely stoked to show you a good time lol, they're some real ones
-
We need to normalize a simple lifestyle and stop normalizing debt. Huge SUVs, huge houses and private universities are simply not necessary. I live within my budget and I sleep better at night knowing that if I lose my job tomorrow, ' be fine. I didn't buy the biggest house. I bought the one I could comfortably repay

"It's easy to get a job if you show up everyday" is a sentence that seriously stunned me. Give her a Nobel prize already.

My great uncle once said, “ You can still be poor and have a clean house.”

Genuine salt of the earth guys you met there. Real people with no entitlement just living their lives and might I say, really polite and respectful. That Logan dude is a total winner at life. Wish more people could be like him. Awesome video! Makes me want to visit the south.

I'm from Kentucky myself, these people definitely know how to live life around here. We all basically treat each other like family in the country parts of KY. Used to live in Manchester, and I quite literally knew everyone there.
-
"Poorest" but they seemed the most genuine people you've shown. These people are my kind of people.

I’m so glad you started doing documentaries instead of pranks nothing against pranks but you cover the TRUTH! And that’s what we need in the USA right now
-
This was definitely humbling. Such good attitudes, may they be blessed. I feel like I haven’t seen this type of attitude in so long. There’s hope! ❤

I'm actually from McCreary County, i know everyone in this video and graduated from the high school not that long ago. its actually insane to see such a popular video about what people have to go through everyday here. The absolute lack of opportunities for the youth other than drugs. Its no surprise a good chunk of the residents even those who are in high school are either addicted to meth, heroin, or some form of pill.

Despite living in the poorest county, it's good to see these dudes still have an optimistic view on life, plus they know how to make a fun time from scratch. Good video man, I enjoyed watching this. Educational in it's own way as well.
-
no matter how much i make i don’t think i’ll ever feel as free as those kids man, they’re truly enjoying life
-
I don't live far from there and my towns not much different. People assume poor means dirty and dangerous. It's quiet the opposite. 4 out of 5 driveways you pull into people won't let you leave without feeding you and making sure your safe and happy, but in every county there is always that 5th driveway you wish you never pulled into, no matter where you go

Thanks for sharing brother
