F. Gonna miss that beautiful door

Honestly, I'd love to see Amanda buy her dad a new door, and bring the old one into this new space. lol

She doesn't even remember her roots and old friends. Like, where is door knob.

I hope she talks abt this comment in the next video 😂

It’s like the landscaping sounds never happened. The refrigerator is all she hears.

Agreed. A band I follow (who lives in LA, coincidentally) recently had someone show up to their house. They always mention their favorite restaurants and shit, so that's probably why. Amanda, if you're reading this, please pay attention to the OP 👆🏾 Stay safe! 🖤🖤 1/27/21, 11:02a

Oh and make sure to not have any reflections of your surroundings in your glasses, a Japanese pop star got doxed and assaulted just by the locations in the reflections of her life eyes

Well she said she printed a pic of it to but it in the back. But yeah it isnt the same.

@@supergamesundco you know it's not the same 😂

I'm hoping for an occasional return of the open/closed drawer 🥺

Huh? How's the refrigerator running?

@@ziggystardog She recorded it before the power went out. She did the editing while there was no power

@@ziggystardog BETTER GO CATCH IT

Commented mid-watch, when you say someone who's moving in with no furniture doesn't have power at her house, versus her power is out, it leads to confusion.

I believe the term for people like her is "bad bitch"

Honestly, especially with the economy the last few years, more people are staying home longer. Also i mean long as your employed and paying your way i don't see a problem lol. I recently moved back in with my parents cause they're older and needed help with everything going on in the pandemic, but I pay my own bills and run my own life still. We're more like roommates in some ways lol

It's harder to have your own home or rent in the city or urban place (the place where the younger people live) this day. I live alone but my parents still support me because of school. Even my independent married brother gets this housing problem where no one would buy his house and he should be moving soon so he decide to live with my parents.

I'm 32 in June and I still haven't moved out. Ain't no shame in it. Everyone's situation is different. we all gotta do what works best for our situation

This is such great advice. I remember moving out and all those little things kept surprising me. Like. Buying a trashcan and a laundry basket/bag.

So true! The first time I moved out, my roommate already had all the furniture and household necessities so it was super cheap. Then when I moved out of there and into a house with my SO, we ended up needing to furnish the whole place because neither of us has much. It took us two years to get our house looking like a place where adults live and it was so expensive! Also, in a lot of cities if you haven't had utilities accounts open there before, you have to put down a deposit. So between opening utilities accounts, house deposit and first months rent, renting moving trucks, and just getting bare essentials like cleaning supplies and toilet paper, it was nearly $5k. Then the cost of furniture and such on top of that. Go cheaper than you think you can afford, because other expenses come up and they will suck your bank account dry.

Seriously! When you own practically nothing but your clothes and are getting started in a new apartment you cannot imagine how many things you need. Trashcans! Shower curtains and liners! Cleaning supplies! Pots, pans, knives, cutting boards! It adds up real fast, even if you're getting most of it from the Dollar Store and Walmart

It's definitely much easier after the first time. Not only will you have most (or all) of those sorts of odds-and-ends items the second time around, but you'll have a lot more accurate view of your monthly budget, since you're actually spending that money instead of trying to predict what you'll spend. Far fewer "laundry detergent costs WHAT!?" moments.

Rent prices have gone up 43% over the last 10 years and wages have not. Pray tell how we can do that?

Would literally hand wash my shit than go to a laundromat rn

I've lived in 5 states, and probably a dozen cities since I first moved out. And I can say for a fact that every laundromat is the absolute worst. Each new one I try out is somehow worse than the one before it

Honestly the Laundromat here in LA didn't change much. They don't care about the virus lol

Some buildings do have in-building laundry

Allen Mitchell I went to a laundromat in Portland during a hiking trip, it was bougie as fuck and the nicest one I’d ever been to. They had pinball machines, coffee, and the washers had a yoga mat setting. 10/10, good laundromats exist but they’re expensive and hipster as fuck.

me, 22, living in michigan with 0 plan of living in LA: hm, gotta know the cost

Don’t worry kid, you won’t always be 19 living at home in Ireland. Keep at it and one day you’ll be like me, 24 and living at home in Ireland.

Me , 20 , living at home in Ireland with no intention of moving anywhere outside Dublin : *relates to comment* interesting

What does living in Ireland have to do with anything? If you like a KZfaqr then you’ll watch the video they post. What a dumb comment

@@AntsMovies bruh

Technically there's two, NY and LA. Thought NY has more theater jobs there is some film and TV, more then other places...but it's where Broadway is so it's where you can actually get paid more then pennies as a stage actor. LA has more film jobs. Once you are established, really you can move anywhere. People will fly you in once you have clout and plenty of studios don't shoot in LA, but because all the studios are based there, it's where they do most of the casting.

Atlanta is getting to be way more important in filming and acting too

@@cayteer I think if you are working some other film job Atlanta's a great market. People still tend to circle to LA for a lot of film casting. So the actors still primarily come from LA. Studios don't tend to do their own casting and the majority of casting agents/companies are still LA based and then they fly talent out to wherever they are cast. You are more likely to go from LA to somewhere else then come to LA from a casting agency outside LA. It's still the biggest pool for the acting opportunities and building a resume really.

Chicago also has a lot of opportunity for acting, with a pretty even mix of film, theater, and TV. It is also *far* cheaper to live in than NY or LA.

Sadly pretty much every country is like that.

Amanda's summary is pretty accurate. I would also consider having a roommate you trust to share space with. It can help with the bills. Definitely read the reviews about the apartment complex before you even think about moving in there but do so with a grain of salt. I also suggest driving around the area if possible to see what is around the apartment. For example, is it near a county jail/sheriffs office.............? Take pictures of any defects you see on your first day of moving in and save it on your computer. Either have the landlord fix these issues or keep the pictures as evidence that it wasn't you that caused the damages. If they want proof of when the pictures were taken, the picture properties will be date stamped so that should be easy to prove. Some things she didn't talk about were pets, if the apartment allows pets they are usually an extra $20 a month added to the rent. Keep a copy of all the stuff you signed in a safe place. One piece of financial advice is to get credit rewards cards and pay your bills with it each month. Might be tough for a 20 something year old to get one, i don't remember, i'm in my 30's now but getting 2% cash back for all your bills is awesome :)

This is actually so true omg

Nah I wanna know where she lives so I can show up with flowers one day

It is better than Nashville currently. Studio apartments are closer to 2k here. With worse buildings

Hope KZfaq works out for you! Also, while I doubt you do this; don’t spam comments on videos that say “My mom said that if I get 1000 likes I can get a new set up.”

@@johnadams7145 no i don’t do this, but thank you for your advice John Adams. Tell your brother his beer sucks for me

How do y’all purchase big items (house, car,…anything over $1,000 really 💀) do they just trust you will pay it back? *and what country*

@@taylablange7829 australia: the only times i've seen credit scores potentially used is renting. otherwise you just give a lot of info about your wages and spending habits

Gem I’m curious where you are from because credit and all that drives me nuts here.

Tayla Blange they look at income payslips and also bank deposit records. You don’t have to have a credit card at all. I didn’t when I first bought a car and for my current rental I don’t think they looked at mine at all.

I'm in the Uk and we use credit scores. Where is it that you're from? It's a pretty global thing for companies to run credit checks on people? I also just had one to move into a flat I'm renting.

It could be because there has been a mass exodus from LA. So there probably is a lot of available apartments. They might be running a deal.

Instant pot is more versatile in the long run.

Rental insurance is honestly so cheap generally, it's kind of bonkers

The application fee covers the cost of a background check so that people with certain felonies cannot live there. This is something they can mention on the website to make them look better. Background checks usually cost $45-100 so that’s usually what the app fee is. Some apartments outsource their application approval process too. The deposit is something you pay so that if there are any damages to the property they won’t have to track you down to pay the damages. If you move and don’t have any damages they will give it back to you. I think this became popular because it stops people from just completely trashing an apartment without any expectation to pay for it.

Dang girl, that is fast

My creditcard won't allow me to go in dept because I automatically pay it back monthly through my debitcard. I only use it for online safety ordering and hotel reservations

Also I'm from a country where yoh don't build up a credit score or anything like that. The United States runs on credit cards I doubt Australia is (just like here on the Netherlands)

Idk how it works in Australia but in America it's crucial to get a credit card asap in order to build a credit history. Not having one can make it difficult for yourself like Amanda explained in the video. In Australia if stuff like that isn't important it might still be a good idea to get one, just so your familiar with credit, learn how to manage one, and build up a credit score. To each their own though. I'm 22 I got one February last year. I might have to move next year so building up my credit was important. Personally, I think as long as your responsible and can pay off the card each month it's okay to have one.

@@TheClari25 in my country, the Netherlands there is no credit score like that. The only benefit is easy access to online shopping. The only thing you need here is a debit card!

@@inshort6831 I think that there's no such system in any European country. To be honest, I was surprised to hear about how American credit score works. I mean, I get that not paying your debt etc should affect your reliability somehow, but you shouldn't be forced to get a credit card if you don't want/need one, just to be able to live life as a normal citizen and have access to basic stuff. If you have money in my bank account why would you need to borrow money and also pay fees on that? And besides, not doesn't not ever having a credit card mean that you don't really need it, i e you have the necessary financial means? /rant over
