hey what's up Huntington here from niche
site project this live stream is about
me ordering a new phone so I have an
iPhone 6 and I've had this iPhone 6 for
several well that's several years I've
had it for 30 months so I'm with AT&T
and yeah I've had this phone for a
pretty long time and it's been fine I
said it was gonna you know keep it for
till it dies but it is pretty tough to
use I have to say it's really really
slowed down with the last OS update that
kind of tends to happen I've noticed it
with other iPhones in the past and I
just couldn't take it anymore
so it happened yesterday when I went out
for a walk and when I came back to so I
see we have my dentist and Dave on there
telling me to get an Android I knew I
was gonna hear about this as well and I
gotta say it looks like a great option
I'll talk a little about the Android
option I considered but only after I
already ordered my phone so it's kind of
pointless so I went out for a walk with
my new dog Georgie if you're interested
in seeing the the first time Georgie
it's been on the live stream it was
yesterday so we have success
rollercoaster on - yeah give me a shout
if you're watching let me know are you
Android people or iPhone or some other
phone if there's another type maybe like
flip phones something like that for a
minute I thought about getting like an
old-school flip phone to just use it as
a phone that would be totally different
think I made one phone call for a few
minutes and then when I got back it was
like you know 11 am my phone was charged
at like a hundred percent for like when
I left and it was like 28% when I got
back and I I realize it's probably right
it's probably like apps running in the
background probably some kind of
location service run
in the background but I'm not sure what
it is and I tried to you know shut them
down I'm sure it would be fine if I just
you know stuck with it but I basically
quit all the apps this morning before I
went out on the walk I checked a couple
emails I maybe just very light activity
so much better say were 68% so
potentially it was like the phone call
that I made the other day but it turned
out that you know this phone is fairly
old like I said I've had it for about 30
months or so and I know that because I
was in the AT&T next program where you
pay installments which it was kind of
weird I actually prefer to buy my phone
outright and then just make payments for
the service but it ends up being the
same price if you keep it for 30 months
and that's the thing I believe they
expect most people to upgrade like
earlier so typically I probably would I
would have upgraded my phone at about
two years in or so and here I've kept it
a little bit longer than that so I guess
that's what they what they thought was
gonna happen so we have you - what's up
and David says he uses Android Imran
uses Android and Nix iOS people say the
iPhone 10 is overpriced yeah probably is
so here's the other phone that like
after I was considering the 8 plus right
so I'm in the Apple ecosystem and I I
don't have a ton of apps that I paid for
but I have a few in hindsight right like
I could have purchased Samsung s8 I
think is the phone that's sort of
comparable I could have purchased that
upgraded the the memory with like a
micro SD card and bought every app that
I ever wanted
it would still probably be less than an
iPhone 10 so you know it's it's
interesting to note one of the reasons I
got it is before live streams and stuff
so I've been struggling like using my
phone for live streams it's a little
slow and it's very convenient to have
like a phone that will work now sure I'm
certain the Android comparable devices
can do what I need them to do however I
was impressed with like the camera
offering on the iPhone 10 so I think you
know it's the new iteration of the
iPhone it is it's gonna be more
expensive like it's a premium brand like
they know people will pay it that's why
it's so expensive however I will say I'm
pretty sure the the camera setup on the
iPhone 10 it's pretty good the slow-mo
capability is really awesome that's
something I could probably use with
Georgie really practical right I can
record my dog and super slow-motion I
think it'll do something like 240 frames
a second which is like pretty amazing
for a phone so Dennis says you upgrade
every 24 months so that's cool David
mentions or asked do I work on a Mac I
do I have a Mac how about you Dave or
David sorry success roller roller
coaster mentioned something about Amazon
Associates and Dada
so I'm not sure I'm not sure the answer
to that question but you could sounds
like you can are you a student success
roller coaster I'm not sure who you are
and the NIC mentions or David also says
check out the 1 + 5 t okay so people can
check on that nick says when you compare
the iPhone 10 to the galaxy 8 plus it's
not that much more expensive maybe like
a hundred bucks more interesting yeah it
just happened to be the YouTube video
that pop
up when I was taking a look like iPhone
10 video so it was like the like I said
the essayed the same song s8 and David
says your PC guy I don't even know how
to use a Mac see the thing is I used to
like I think I've used a Mac since like
2007 or so and maybe a tiny bit in in
college the computer labs had Mac's in
there and usually there wasn't a line so
I was like oh you know what like I'll
just use those I'm just I just need to
check a couple things most of the time I
was just I was like logging on to like a
terminal on one of the UNIX servers and
I was doing whatever coding or it didn't
matter what I was using I just needed a
keyboard and a screen so he used the
Mac's there the point being is with the
corporate job I used to have a like
Lenovo whatever and Windows right so I
could like use both platforms and it was
fine but it's been a couple years and
yeah I don't know how to use a Windows
machine at this point although I could
probably pick it up a little faster than
you could pick up the Mac just because
the Mac's weird also I type in Dvorak or
Dvorak if you're you know if you care
about the pronunciation but yeah so if
someone came up to my computer and tried
to type like all the letters are in the
wrong spot right so when I when I try
and use the different keyboard I can't
type I have to like peck it out I I
don't know where they the keys are the
letters are anymore and successful
rollercoaster says you're not a student
anymore
no now are you a student of mine have
you ever paid have you ever enrolled in
the course and or gotten coaching from
me or anything like that so because I
can help you or but I I could help you
if you're a student but if you're not a
student I I don't have the band
to help with that level of like help
that you need there Denis mentions the
best thing about the Mac is you could
run a VM or Windows in a VM if you need
to virtual machine and the biggest
gimmick on the phone is the wireless
charging you can't use the phone when
it's charging I don't get the obsession
with wireless charging a good point Nick
I'm not 100% sure either I although I
gotta say because I'm using this phone
which is pretty old iPhone 6 there's a
lot of capabilities out there that I
haven't even looked into I mean I I just
used the phone like in a basic way so
all the high-tech technical I mean I
just got Wireless like Bluetooth
headphones for the gym in the last year
so I'm definitely catching up so the
card says you upgrade your phone every
third year so that's cool and I'm not
sure I may I may keep this phone like
the iPhone 10 for a pretty long time but
you know I guess we'll see how it goes I
did purchase this phone outright versus
the next program which locks you into
the contract and all that stuff it's the
same price right like they prorate it so
it's like within $1 or something like
that but if you're making payments then
you have a lot less flexibility on like
selling the phone or penalties and
contracts and whatever so I wanted to
avoid all that so I'm excited to get the
new phone here and I think a week or so
they don't have any locally I'm in
Bozeman Montana so we don't have like an
Apple store around here I think the
closest one is in Boise Idaho which is
hours away so yep and I was gonna say
Nik points out buying the phone outright
and then you could resell it later and
that's basically what I've done with all
I've had I phone since I've owned like
3G I guess so I didn't get the very
first phone but I got the next iteration
and I've always like sold
I've used like I mentioned I usually
upgrade sooner so if you sell it before
the phone is like obsolete that's
usually better like my phone is probably
like on the edge of like what's
something what someone would want to
purchase and try and use and yeah it's
it's definitely the the iPhone 10 is
definitely an expensive choice but I'm
excited to get it and take a lot of
pictures and that's when it again that's
one of the main reasons I opted for it
is you know what looks to be great
great you know a front-facing phone you
have two lenses on the back wide-angle
and telephoto optical image
stabilization on the rear cameras and
yeah I think from what I have observed
it looks like it's a good phone so and
oh the other part is I guess like the
facial recognition apparently it works
really well once you get used to it and
I mean it seems it seems fine so
hopefully it'll just blend into my
normal environment and just be easy to
use so I know just become a phone and it
won't be a big deal
I think Dennis appreciate it okay and
what I can do right so couple things to
know I haven't mentioned it but the
productivity course' is out right now so
it's for sale and I know that several
people have asked about it I haven't
done a great job pasting the links or
posting the links rather in the
descriptions I think for this video I
actually put it in it is a pilot course
so if you're unfamiliar that is like the
pre beta this is a lot of interaction
with me we're going through the material
testing it more or less like you'll help
shape what the course becomes enrollment
is open until the end of day tomorrow so
it's already more than half-full and I
expect it to fill up and once it does I
will just shut it down and you can't
enroll so if you're lightly interested
you should check it
if you want more information about it
just let me know I can give you more
details on it the I don't have like a
massive sales page I don't have like
tons of info on it
it's it's mainly for people that like
already know me you know the brand and
they're looking to improve their
productivity and again there's a lot of
information about like specifically what
you get on the link so click below if
you're interested and you'll also
probably notice that I'm not pushing it
as hard as you know other people sell
courses or even when I sell five-figure
niche site I'm not you know sending as
many emails and that sort of thing
pushing it but you'll probably get it a
couple tomorrow and let's see here I'm
trying to think if there's any other
things so a couple cool things coming up
and I'll just mention it here since I
didn't have you know it doesn't take a
long time for me to tell you I'm getting
a new phone so a couple fun things
coming up Rob and I are doing a series
of videos so Rob Atkinson one of my good
friends he was a business partner on the
site that I sold in project a white hat
so we were a team on that you know Rob
sort of invited me in to work on the
team and you know we sold that site
great experience so Rob and I are like
talking about location-independent
like work and we're also talking about
like working in Chiangmai leaving your
corporate job in the first video that
will be coming out I think I may be able
to get it out in the next few days
whatever my editor can get to me we
talked about cyber monday and sort of
like what Rob has been up to so that's
cool and I'm excited to do more and I
wanted to you know let you know that
those are coming out soon you know be
interested to hear if you wanted like
see more of that right so I'll mention
it in the videos as well but this should
be pretty pretty awesome additionally I
interview Rob's wife
yeess right so Rob's wife has a travel
blog a pretty big Instagram following
and yeah so I talked to her cuz she's
living you know living the life as well
and traveling and you know making money
my something people are often interested
in so I interview her and that'll be
coming out soon as well so again I'm
just interviewing more and more people
as we go and then iris says do I have a
niche site that sells phones or other
electronics or accessories no sure don't
sure don't so those are a few of the
things coming up and I'll give another
plug if you're on the email list you
probably saw that I was on a podcast
called motivated life and if you are
watching this you probably saw the
interview with Ravi
so that's Ravi's podcast just launched
this week if you're interested in
hearing like a slightly different angle
of my story you should check out that
podcast really good interview I think
Robbie Robbie's a good guy I I think the
podcast is going to do I think it's
gonna do pretty well as it gets more
people on I was surprised was the second
interview that he did but his story is
really interesting so if you haven't
heard that there's a video on the
channel if you just look back a couple
days you'll see that videos well i
interview ravi ravi and we talked about
his story so and anthony says what does
Rob's wife do exactly so she she's she'd
be better to answer that so number one
like she does have the blog and the
Instagram following so she's able to
like get sponsors in some capacity I'm
not a hundred percent sure how that
works on her end I actually did go into
great depth in that sort of area but so
she has a big enough Instagram following
where she can get sponsored like
sponsorships in general
her I think her blog is starting to get
more traffic and again you can she's
probably making some money from there
and she also helps rob some at least on
some capacity and this is new she's
actually helping me with some email
support as well because she has like a
unique set of skills that are really
like helpful for me so I don't want to
give away too much it like from the
interview but she used to work in the
hospitality industry in like Hotel
Management so she has like really good
customer service skills and that's
something that I need help with so she's
working with me some as well just as a
freelance thing and iris says travel
blogs are very competitive and you're
looking forward to checking that out
awesome iris that's good to hear it yes
it is competitive Dave or I guess she's
been working on it for like three years
or so so like everything is taken like a
long time to get to a point where
there's like good traffic and stuff and
Anthony says in my location dependent
when it comes to making videos not
necessarily like I have I have a pretty
lean setup for like being able to travel
so when I went down to Atlanta Georgia
to visit family and stuff I brought my
camera and you know it's fairly light
and I shot some videos down there which
I also need to go through and get over
to my editor but there are some videos
there and then you know tying a full
circle right another reason why I got
the iPhone is like I feel very very
capable of shooting like video on that
phone where it'll be like high quality
where I could publish it so I don't
think I'm location dependent when it
comes to making videos at all there I
this is starting to come out through the
interviews a little bit
or and it's people like to be a location
independent but when you're when you
really got to get work done like you
kind of have to have like a workspace a
proper workspace it doesn't mean you
can't find one of those on the road or
anything like that but it's usually
easier to pull that together if you're
say renting an apartment for six months
and like you have the ability to live
there and be in a different location for
example like my wife and I were able to
travel some before like we were laid off
and it was awesome because we were able
to say rent a house in Denver or Austin
or you know visit family in Indiana for
like a month so we had like a proper
place to work and we were able to so I
like to live like the locals right I
want to go to the grocery store I want
to eat it the you know not like the like
the normal chain restaurants I wanna eat
like where the locals do and depending
on where you live that's easier or
harder but you know as far as like going
to the grocery store and like cooking
and like filling the refrigerator like
for whatever reason that is a
therapeutic like activity for me to do I
don't mind it I I don't want to go to
the grocery store when it's super
crowded but with a flexible schedule you
can go to the store when there aren't
too many people there so and Anthony
says recording is easy editing takes the
longest where did I find my video editor
and how do you send them the large files
so I agree a hundred percent the editing
does take a long time and as you get
better at recording the videos the
editing becomes a lot easier so as I'm
shooting more and more videos I'm
getting very slightly incrementally
better I'm trying to get rid of my
verbal tics as well those are a pain in
the ass the thing is the video editor is
from upwork so I tested
whew there are tons of options so I use
up work just because it's a such a big
marketplace and easy to find freelancers
with a variety of skills so my
particular stood I think three video
editors sent them different videos and
they edited them based on you know my
very loose and the thing is I didn't
know exactly what I needed I knew that I
didn't want to have to give them too
many instructions right so I typically
just send them the files I don't mention
that in a second I send them the files
and then there they edit it and and we
have like a little system where you know
they place the files in a folder that I
want them to and then I know it's done
so it's actually a pretty simple system
and it works really well now as far as
uploading the video so a year ago I
would have had serious issues doing this
so the high speed options here in
Bozeman are a little limited so I think
we have charter and some other company
the thing is you can get really fast
download speeds like whatever like 75
megabytes a second or 150 or something
like that like you can get really fast
download but uploads are like three
megabytes a second in fact it's like
faster on my LTE connection on my phone
then it is again tying back to the phone
than it is to like use the broadband
from charter right so think about that
for a second even when I was like trying
to figure out like options or whatever
like they had none right like I can't
they didn't they didn't even have
business level options for me that I
could get and if I think maybe if I went
to like a much higher level it's gonna
cost like three four hundred dollars a
month something insane right something
not comparable for what you're getting
however there's a company called Montana
optic on
and they are like a pretty small company
but they have fiber right they'll run
fiber to your house so earlier this
summer got fibre to the house it took a
little while to like install they had
that like run cable and like run the
fiber and do some stuff like it took a
while to have everything done but it's
fast so I get 75 up and 75 down so it
was only when that happened Anthony when
I got fibre to the house that I could
upload a video and a reasonable amount
of time before that I didn't know what
to do I had a local editor here that was
a friend and he would pick up like the
SD card and put it on his machine and
then he would edit it for me so that
like high-speed is what enabled it now
high-speed was around it's just it
wasn't looked like available to resident
like residential zones in a like large
fashion or widespread like fashion right
and then Anthony I pay them per hour
they do yeah they do the cutting and
pasting they put in music
all like if you go watch some of my go
watch videos from like three months ago
and then watch videos from like last
week and you'll see like a dramatic
improvement in everything like video
quality right so because I wasn't
editing I could spend a little bit more
time on video and making sure that I'm
like setting things up properly I can
mess I have a light kit right next to me
right now I'm in front of a big window
but outside the light kit on really
helpful so like all the other things I'm
able to spend more time on because I'm
not worrying about the video anymore all
right
other questions here and Anthony I was
gonna say I mean it's it's just
fantastic to have an editor and she's in
the Ukraine she has a YouTube channel
I don't speak Ukrainian but I checked
out her channel before I did the test
and I was like you know what and it's
like a comedy channel and sort of funny
I don't know what she was saying but I
was like she's cutting the videos well
she's funny and I don't even know what
she's talking about so like it works out
really well and she does a great job
really economical too I would definitely
look at you know Eastern Europe and you
know just other other locations look
offshore is probably you know worthwhile
iris says what am i adding to my
projects in 2018 when I have a long list
of equally interesting and profitable
niches how do you choose just one so one
of my main focuses I'm actually like
removing projects right like my goal is
to remove projects for 2018 that'll
probably be the best move I can make and
as far as like picking a long list of
equally interesting and profitable
niches how do you choose just one you
just have to pick one right you just
have to pick one if you're in the chorus
there's like a whole like set of
exercises we do to help you pick help
you narrow it down the course being the
five figure niche site course and
basically you just have to pick one so
there is no actual real shortcut on that
and you may have you know you may pick
the wrong choice but hopefully you'll
learn something along the way Dennis is
doing something exciting you're
upgrading your home office to 150 150 on
Monday with an option to go up to 250
and 250 that's fantastic and I mean it's
just so much if you're used to like
anything else like uploading these HD
videos is ridiculous I mean it's so much
faster I think technically I can upgrade
I'm not sure how fast I can get
- but here's the deal I get 75 up 75
down it's only 50 bucks a month so like
wrap your head around that it's like so
much cheaper than what we were paying
for charter I think I was paying charter
like 75 bucks 70 75 bucks a month after
like the promo deal ran out and then
it's just an inferior service like they
actually came around door-to-door the
other day and it was a nice sales guy so
I talked to him for a minute I was like
hey I need like good uploads speed so
I'm you guys don't have it right nope we
don't have anything like that and I'm
like I'm paying 50 bucks a month for a
superior service and you guys have
nothing to offer I'm like you know I'm
definitely interested in in good
services I'm not like against charter on
a personal level if they can you know
deliver the commodity for me of
high-speed Internet but you know it's
it's a no-brainer and let's see so
Anthony do you have to wait when you
shoot elsewhere when you're not at home
yeah basically so I like when I would
travel to Georgia and you know shot
video I have like a 64 gig SD card you
know they're like 20 30 bucks they're
not very expensive so about a couple
extras and I don't even think I filled
up half of it but I could have uploaded
it if I had like a super fast high speed
connection I was staying with my parents
they didn't have such a connection but
in Atlanta Georgia there's like plenty
of fast internet connection so I could
have uploaded it but I just didn't worry
about it and I'm going to do it here and
then probably today or tomorrow actually
I use a Mac and for me I used for the
video tutorials I was using right I do
use ScreenFlow you can actually use I
think probably on a PC and a Mac there
are free options to record your screen
ScreenFlow just have
so be a little bit easier and I would
edit videos and ScreenFlow - it actually
does a pretty decent job editing as well
and Nick says do you ever advise someone
against an inch but because I already
have one in it how do I deal with a
conflict of interest this is a common
question Nick a couple people were
really asking around that idea before
they enrolled in the course so no I
don't advise people against them because
I have a site in it usually I just give
them like pure advice right totally
agnostic of like what sites I have or
don't have the thing is so Georgie's
sitting right next to me the UPS truck
just pulled up this is gonna be a test
to see if she barks yeah hey George
everything's cool it's a new dog here
Georgie so she's a little little
skittish still getting used to things so
anyway for whatever reason it's not hard
for me to deal with any sort of conflict
of interest the other part is within my
network of like my peers like we have
sites in so many niches like it's almost
impossible to find one where I don't
know someone with a site in it
so I just give the best advice that I
can based on the information that you
know the person is bringing and usually
it's not too hard
additionally using the keyword golden
ratio it's usually like it's usually
possible to find like a set of keywords
or a pocket within a niche where there's
room to play plus there's always new
products being developed so there's
usually always space as long as you're
in it for the long haul
Anthony says when it comes to being
location independent how do I get over a
weak or low Wi-Fi speeds do you have
your
mobile hotspots so currently I'm not
travelling like I used to right so my
wife and I sort of settled down here in
Bozeman however you have a couple
options and there are going to be a
couple like more interviews with people
who are like actively like location
independent typically you will have to
hunt around you'll have to find like a
coffee shop that has like good enough
