Update April 2018
********************
OK Vlogger Thread, we are going with some new parameters to try to make this the POSITIVE vlogger thread that it is supposed to be, not the AIDS vlogger thread where a few loonies ruin it for the rest. Note that 'positive' does not equal 'only positive', it means anything negative being said CAN'T be namecalling or wild, unsubstantiated speculation regarding any and all vloggers. Personal lives and anything aside from poker is OFF THE TABLE.

A new update March 2019:
NO ****ING POLITICS!
Trooper has a frightening amount of knowledge about chocolate candy.
Tempered? I've never heard of that.
It is very funny how many of troopers videos are his face, and his trying to put on different expressions in those videos. It does reek of some weird mental thing he has going on
A narcissist's favorite place on Earth is in front of a mirror. Anyone who's lived with or dated a narcissist can attest to how much time they spend in front of a mirror every chance they get. And for the vain, unskilled narcissist, 90%+ of their social media pics are usually selfies.
showing off that chocolate stash was depressing
their hoarde of chocolate is a grand total of 33 pounds
i found it odd they bought in 11 pound batches so googled that and found this
https://www.webstaurantstore.com/calleba...
assuming that's a reasonable price of $70, their cost basis x3 is $210 just for the chocolate
let's say they're able to really stretch with additives like marshmellows, peanuts, caramel, nougat etc and they get 50 pounds of candy from it
a 1 lb box of chocalate from see's goes for $30, they can probably get away with charging 2x that amount
$60 x 50 pounds of products = 3k gross
-210 chocolate
-150 other ingredient (remember we need 20 pounds of other ingredients)
so we're looking at net profit 2.5k
then there are labor, farmer's market fees, etc
if they can sell all that in a week they will probably breaking even compared to if they were working regular jobs
but something tells me they will not even make that much in a week, let alone a month or two
if they can sell all that in a week they will probably breaking even compared to if they were working regular jobs
You are missing the whole point. This way they get to stick it in the "haters" faces by not working for the man. You can't put a value on how much joy that gives the Trooper!
Lol, okay so Rice announced in his latest that he is gonna kick Vegas off with going 5 days eating strictly on comps only. No cash infusion whatsoever.
This is basically gonna be a challenge in terms of how hard is he able to starving himself. No way 2 bucks pr hour gonna keep you full for an entire day or bring you enough money to be eating 3 solid meals. But Diesel is used to going on with eating only 1 meal pr day, so i guess he is gonna hit this one out of the park.
I don’t see how these challenges are for anyone except him, trying to save money.
Vegas has wonderful food, he seems to avoid it like trooper always did

Nope, zero meaning for anyone else. Its so hilarious cause this spend xx amounts on food to the point that he just doesent eat the food a normal grownup person needs in a day,its just yet another coping strat trying to survive on less than minimum wage.
What would actually be interesting is a challenge where he shows how much he could eat for in 1 one week,but it has to be at least 3 healthy well put together meals pr day. (Breakfast,lunch,dinner).
What he is doing is just a challenge on how long he go on without eating really. How about doing a "challenge" where he isnt eating anything for like 3 days,then he can brag about going 3 days spending zero dollars on food? Amazing stuff.

Diesel says he doesn't use the wi-fi when driving unless an emergency, I guess he is talking about he turns off his cellular data, why?
If you have high quality cigars like Diesel has, they can be frozen and then thaw and be perfectly fine, no humidor needed for those bad boys.
The smug looks on his face while explaining how he gamed the system of a party invite that has plenty of food and he could put in specific requests.

seems like a healthy way to make friends
*gets invited to party
*meets people, fact he is a youtuber comes up
*they watch a vid later to see what he's all about and he's talking about gaming them
I’m most curious about Rice's intention to comply with the following from the Caesar’s employee handbook:
I can confirm that there were dealers with beards longer than an inch at last year’s WSOP.
[highlight]Some of them were even men.[/highlight]
I imagine they don't enforce this policy for these temp employees.
honestly i skipped ahead looking for that because i wanted to learn what his strat was
but i was incredibly saddened to see he's going to a dinner party and his item requests are fritos and gatorade
i strongly suspected it previously that he had some sort of bad trauma while at cornell, but now i'm absolutely convinced that was the case
he's still a child in arrested development, you ask him what he wants in life and its gatorade and frito lays, just incredibly sad, i legit feel bad for him now

Like someone else said it sounds like something a narcissist would do. May also be laziness. There are so many awesome shots you can get while living in Vegas but instead his face is in over 100 thumbnails in a row.
He brags about being in Vegas but it’s not even much of a Vegas vlog.
Self-inflicted eating disorder with a twist.

If he wants to do that then fine, but as a viewer, that doesn’t interest me at all. I think it’s strange that he does so many different meaningless challenges and thinks they are interesting.
Its also gonna be very interesting to see how long before Trooper gonna lose his interest in this project if this farmers market thing with long hours and alot of work is the business model moving forward. Especially on days where its slow and they dont sell much.
For sure agree with other posters that its gonna be almost impossible to earn enough money for a yearly salary covering two people. Not being able to ship online sales is gonna be extremely hard to overcome when you are a small business
My goodness.
This looks a lot like a job.
Dragging your wares to specific locations and times.
They're gonna have to divide the labor up more efficiently. Both of them at the farmer's market is not needed. She needs to stay home and keep her butt in the kitchen baking while he's out pounding the pavement.
How many fat aerobics instructors do you know?
Does T look like he lives on a diet of healthy, nonGMO, organic food?
Farmers' markets tend to be premium prices, so customers would probably walk by a plump middle-aged gent dressed like a 15-year-old.
They are very secretive and paranoid. Remember Molly left him and he didn’t say anything for weeks until people bugged him repeatedly over it and he said it was none of our business. His original plan was to pretend Molly was never in his life and not say anything. Kelly disappeared too and he said nothing and gave no details about how close they were.
Also what kind of ring would they even get? You do make an interesting point but not everybody wears them all the time. All they needed to do
Her family will cut them off if they marry or her alimony will terminate.
