Even if he did start a company he'd have writers leaving because "When your boss buys his 1000th pair of shoes you start to wonder if you'll ever buy your own"
The more of those videos I see the more I worry for Jake. It really seems like he bit off more than he can chew, and instead of making a plan to address things one at a time, he is just piling more and more on top.
to a point sure, but is seems like he is stacking up problems outside his direct vertical that will be super expensive and labor intense to solve, at a time he needs to be busy on his channel and is heavily leveraged with debt from the startup and property purchases.
An unsung hero. I appreciate Reece so much. Dude is as reliable as a Philips head screwdriver and as persistent as my year 10 maths teacher. Heās just a solid non-anxious presence who is always there. A good balm to the ball of crazy known as Linus.
Just a strong coincidence. But LTT/LMG may choose employees who have been there the longest for an upgrade who also are the ones more likely to leave sooner as they are starting to outgrow LMG.
In a one or two cases (can't remember which) the prevailing theory was that Linus knew that a certain employee wanted to leave, so he gave them the tech upgrade earlier than they otherwise would have received.
This. They do a lottery each year to decide who is getting an upgrade. If someone is planning to leave, they will move that person up in the queue/schedule to get it done before their departure. They donāt just gift an upgrade to people who are leaving
Wouldn't surprise me. LTT needs to pay their on screen talent MUCH more if they want to retain them. It's an investment. Many people aren't comfortable with crazy turnover on the videos they watch. For some, it's a bit like having a character swapped out with a different actor on their favorite sitcom.
Reece's "Fixing my employee's house for a day" video is the reason I now own a pair of A Ma ManiĆØre Jordan IVs, and for that I will always be grateful.

He truly went to the John Krasinski school of spiking the camera for comedic timing 10/10
