[Music] a [Music] all right all right come on dude welcome to my four bedroom apartment two and a half million dollar apartment tour we'll roll with that whatever so quick caveat it is technically a four bedroom but here in dubai they call a three bed plus maids room but there's a bed in it so and an old suite so that's a bedroom right mm-hmm i'll call it that's that second i do not own this place i'm 21 years old i own zero property but i have an investment portfolio of 10 million dollars and right now property just doesn't fit into it very soon it will do but i'll be 35 and still not own the place that i live in at this stage in my life it's more important to be mobile and always remember as big papa robert kiyosaki very famously said if you live in your house it is no longer an asset is it liability no inflow merely outflows so for the time being i rent now you might be wondering how much do i spend on this place well i got this place for 600 000 aed which comes out to i think around 180 000 i know it's like 10 000 pounds a month so like 14 inch thousand dollars a month that said that was in dubai summer and prices are always climbing so if you try to get this unit now i think it'll probably cost you closer to 16 to 18 000 yes to buy prices really do move that quick and then obviously and as i said i negotiated this place in the summer and now it's winter while more people coming here either way let me give you a little tour so this is the living room now in the building that i'm at i'm on the service department side so for the service department side you actually pay i think something close to twenty thousand dollars a year extra uh obviously that kind of just gets tacked on to my rent on the service department side it is literally like living in a hotel you have access to all the hotel amenities so 24-hour gym steam room sauna highest infinity pool on earth a beach obviously everything kind of comes included so like when you go to the beach they give you water towel like it's it basically i live in a hotel except i have my own space and everything a beautiful thing this place came furnished so so i just added a few touches took out some stuff very minimal you're right yeah all right so yeah i said place came fully furnished i was able to add a few little touches so this is the living room there used to be uh six chairs here i removed some there's one actually in one of the guest rooms uh so i'll come back here and just before it shows um not much to say uh tv came as standard i never watched tv in my fourth floor house i think i didn't turn on the tv for the first four months so yeah i never use tvs actually a lot of times one of the first things i do when i get to a place i just actually can plug all the tvs that's what clever uh this living room area i have let me put these away polaroids are always quite dangerous yeah let's not look at those here i have a bang olufsen feel sound balance i think it's a bo sound but whatever it's a speaker uh tv i don't know what model i don't know how big uh whatever i don't really watch tv so it doesn't really matter uh nest gotta keep security 24-hour security uh records to cloud you never know when you're gonna need it dubai is extremely safe but yes being young and successful you never know it's just you never know here i have some of my film cameras the other half are in london with uh tristan who is the creative director for a few of my companies um so yeah he keeps the rest of them because he needs it for shoots in london for product shots etc etc oh by the way some of you guys might be wondering how the hell does he afford this place what does he do i'm not gonna get into the full details but my main business is an advertising agency it is about as cool and sexy as having an accounting firm it's not very flashy i don't feel like a rockstar while i'm doing it but it pays the bills and it pays the bills uh pretty handsomely so that's the main business and then from there i have an e-commerce brand that is moderately unsuccessful that is doing okay but that was a little bit more of a passion project so that doesn't matter i have an education platform and a software company it's a lot going on between all the companies full-time team developers like everything all together i have a full-time team around 23. quite insane a lot very hectic a lot going on anyways uh i will show you so this obviously all came with there's a bunch of pillows here i just removed them um i don't really need many pillows i've never laid here and i will say this is potentially one of the most uncomfortable couches on earth this is hard like first of all i mean i don't have a girlfriend i'm lonely but say i did have a girlfriend right and say i watch tv how am i meant to spoon where unsuccessfully unsuccessfully this couch may be the reason why my love life is so useless okay we're blaming it on the couch on the couch okay not my emotional not my lack of emotions or feelings anyways moving on put in some pillows uh hermes pillow just little touches here and there uh irma's blanket which did not get used for the first two months uh and then my friend i think yeah who was no no never mind a girl nevermind oh anyways um here i've got a collection of candles some diptique candles uh i've bought a bunch way too many um yeah way too many i spent 10 grand at diptique so that was interesting excursion uh and i found out i actually don't like most our candles so now i'm just gonna stick to the ceramic ones so nice this right here is my humidor and if we open it up uh let's see what i've got in here uh first of all let's see what the humidity levels are at we are at 72 percent and uh temperature why am i struggling to am i being an idiot where's the tim 75. 7 ah it's because there we go whoa that is way too hot uh funnily enough i feel like i feel like uh i'm being like called out right now i actually came out of my house this morning uh and there was a notice on my door and basically they were like yeah we turned off your aircon i'm new to dubai i just moved here two months ago and i thought that the main company diwa like i thought when i paid for electricity and gas through that company that covers aircon but apparently that's a different company and yeah apparently i had an overdue bill that i just never got told about uh so there's currently no air con in my apartment so yeah it's full totally a fraud so that's the reason why my humidor is three degrees too cold or too hot usually it's around 21 degrees but yeah let's see i've got some trinidad's in here uh let's see what temp that's yeah 24 and a half men's too too hot um some romeo and juliet anahato's got some special uh hibas in there trinidad uh what are they called medialuna lunas um so yeah there we go that's my little humidor so that's that i will show you the outside bit uh i'm not really a view guy to be honest every person who comes in here says wow incredible view uh i guess i don't know i don't really look that much uh so that is a development called blue waters uh that right there is the gorge that's palm and yeah apparently it's a good view apparently it's one of the nicest views um i know there's a lot of places like downtown where you can look over like the burj khalifa and stuff like that i don't really like it one of the big reasons that i came here is obviously living in london for 17 years i there's not crazy amounts of nature but you definitely do feel nature in london i've also lived close to parks and this and that like this isn't exactly nature but at least it makes me feel a little bit more you know like i'm in i don't know just it gives me something that like living in downtown couldn't um if you look down there basically if you look down there this is all the surface department side so all those pools i have access to instead when i go on the beach they give me some water towel um yeah basically it's just i live in a hotel that's basically what it's like uh yeah a little outside area i wish i could say that i spent time out here but i don't um all right let's do a little walk through of the rest of the place um kitchen uh pretty crappy conditioner like it's not nice um i never cook here for that reason i may never never cook normally um but like if i do have a place that has a good kitchen and then and especially if it has like a gas stove i hate those electric uh electric stove thingies um not a lot of times i do fry up steaks burgers uh this that ketogenic lifestyle um yeah i saw this actually on um i was a architectural digest the kendall jenner one and i was like i'm highly addicted to tea so i have this little tea area that is a slice of meat really exciting this right here coffee machine um most of the time i'm drinking decaf actually the main reason i have that is my mom i got her a place in the same building as me for six months so yeah wherever i go i also make sure that my dearest mother is with me single mom so yeah whatever she's like my best friend my dad my mom yeah i gotta i don't need to go into detail there but um yeah this is the kitchen nothing special from being in thailand uh this right here is what they refer to as the maids room don't judge before you judge me everyone has this room okay so like just just don't even okay this is basically where i throw my humble abode this no you oh shut up shut up basically choose a little one tristan slept here last night okay uh because me my best friend and i were before the ac before they actually yeah yeah fine um but anyways tristan anyways i said this is a three bedroom but i turned one to my office so my best friend is staying with me right now for like has been for the last six weeks so he's here for another one week tristan's obviously here uh so me and my best friend actually crashed together in the master bedroom and i gave you your own room i don't know what you're talking about so don't even don't even give me that crap but um this is basically just where i throw my suitcases my remotes my other crap um yeah like fiji san feligreno uh yeah this is basically where oh just like a bunch of just spare stuff gets thrown and uh it's nice to have like actually quite a large space and the best part is obviously if anyone ever comes especially because this is technically a three bed plus made whatever okay um basically if i ever have a bunch of friends staying over actually like yesterday then you know whatever two people like a lot more people can crash also the couch actually folds out as well uh but i don't i'm not really the type of person to host many many people i like my personal space um these right here are actually not my flowers my mom okay i told her i was filming a house store so she very graciously uh brought those down um uh wilbur the whale if you guys know anything about my companies uh this one i have a wheel tattoo uh my education company and platform yeah i made it better yeah our whale is kind of our mascot a little hermes cigar tray ashtray right here which i kind of just used to put a passport wallet sauna airpods regular airpods and uh key and then this thing's super useful uh whenever i go to like sauna or gym or somewhere where i don't need all my cars just slide down there and i don't have to take my wallet so that's convenient anyways let me take you to the rest uh this is the hallway um this is a very particular specification for this place like they have other three bed plus maids but no chance in hell i was gonna take those like i wanted the one that had the corner wrap around unit for the master but this is the one of the guest rooms or one of the guest bathrooms so it's basically the thinking here is if someone actually lived in one of the bedrooms they can close this off and lock this right so no one can get in so that way it's like their own suite but then if no one lived here you know like this usually stays open uh so yeah this is bathroom uh obviously tristan has been using this uh as his bathroom but usually this is like fully fully empty um so yeah this is the this is the guest one of the guest own suites now this is one of the guest rooms and i'll take you in through here this real quick uh so this is one of the guest rooms which i actually uh took the bed out and turns into my office um so you can see right here i just actually just did a bunch of cable management recently um normally it does look a little different normally we don't have this up we don't have a slider up um everything like that right now i have been working on finishing uh one of our latest products at my education platform so yeah if you guys want to see like a sort of full desk breakdown why i put what i did where would i use let me know but um yeah ieg media as i said that is my agency that i started five years ago when i was 16.
um you know not much else to say here uh tv or candles um alexa good uh funny enough they don't allow it here so i actually got tristan to bring it over because this i missed being able to control the lights and just turn off all the lights before i went to bed uh so that is that let's see this is the other guest room that uh currently my best friend is staying in we did clean up slightly some of this stuff is in here that's also why uh i let him use a spare boom arm and he's been working here taking some sales calls as this is why this is normally in the living room another tv here remember to use really um uh bed special uh ensuite and then this actually has a view to marina which isn't that nice as you can see you can see down there marina they really need to clean the windows it's a little gross to be honest it's been a while um yeah view is okay there but obviously i mean it's a little obstructed now with like the light dome and everything else normally it's you know this is in here but the view over there is very very nice especially at night it is very very beautiful uh indeed so that is that let me take you to the master uh now this is definitely the nicest room but also the room i spend i wouldn't say the least time the least waking time in well actually maybe that but yeah i'm never in here really um master bedroom sort of like wrap around views i'll show you around uh obviously beds you know self-explanatory uh it's nice i mean i'll be honest i'll never use it maybe you know i just i moved to dubai in september i still haven't been here in like december or january so you know maybe when things cool down i'll spend a lot more time out here but nice little outside balcony so i said who knows maybe in the winter i can have a nice cigar out here or you know maybe even meditate actually outside in the mornings also meditate inside normally um so that is that this is my little meditation chair another hermes pillow some basic um a tv which usually isn't plugged in uh but just actually just a bit of cable management back there another bengals and biosound these speakers are sick but don't have alexa so we're gonna get that little uh attachment that adds alexa to them uh chanel that's not mine i bought my mom a handbag a couple days ago um so yeah she has left an apartment but you may have seen that in one of my shopping spree videos i will show you what's back here i said tristan has very graciously done a good amount of cable management this is a juve it's funny i ended up rebuying all the stuff i gave away when i went left learning when i left london probably i probably gave away thirty thousand forty thousand pounds worth like forty yeah dollars actually thirty thousand to forty thousand dollars worth of stuff and i ended up buying a lot of it back especially a lot of clothes stuff like juve i gave away a two panel dude before let me actually open this up yeah nice views uh if they cleaned the windows that was uh so that's that um oh i didn't turn that back on yet what you're uh do you want to explain the big black box oh no that's where it's all no boom oh wow there we go it's coming back come back come back to life okay so this big black box is the same thing that i had in the office now you might wonder what a 21 year old millionaire spends his money on you know you would think that i would have a fat whip downstairs and that says no i don't own any lambos i never have instead i spend my money on a one thousand dollar uh air purifier actually two one thousand dollar air purifiers um yeah runs in the background it's industrial grade i think this apartment is 18 sorry 1900. sorry no it's 2100 square feet this covers an area of 1500 so it's way overkill but whatever just runs in the background make sure it's you know cleaner in this room yeah whatever i like my biohacking stuff um juve that uh and then let me show you um this is like a little get ready space um so i've just got uh some jewelry and watches tucked away uh in the safe i still have too many phones i have three phones at the moment so i need to give one of these away i've always got a burner well actually i actually have four phones because i have my crypto authenticator whatever point is um i need to get that sort of apple watch uh ordering uh one of our old clients of the agency actually a longtime clan they've gone on to do exceptionally well they actually just released their 3.
