We went on a helicopter tour of Danny's hometown where he bought 94 acres, started Danny's Cream Pies and now building more with $150M he made off KZread. Danny goes into even more detail about all his background and businesses like Virginity Rocks, Good Sport, 16 Handles, Danny's Cream Pies, and more.
It took a village to pull off this video. Special thank you to:
- Danny Duncan and Stefan Toler for being such great hosts
- Jacob Mills, Joshua McLendon, Stephan Lehman, and Daniel Minor for filming
- Jacob Mills, Juan Rojas, Arturo, Manuel, Daniel, and Elias Gutierrez for editing
- Raa for thumbnail design, Chloe Ginsberg and Jansen Baier for helping with production and feedback and Dale Sigfusson for flying us in your helicopter

He lives sober and it’s so nice to have a influencer that lives life to the absolute fullest without anything and lives sober, it’s good for the people lol
If you can take anything away from this video it’s that Danny is one of the most genuine people out there. He’s managed to build himself an empire from content based off of who he really is as a person… don’t ever hide your true self, always shine and stay true. I’m in the process of buying land and starting my own mini version of what Danny has accomplished so this is very motivating to watch. Danny’s a great influence for the kids 💯
Watching this video and Danny’s videos now as an adult makes me realize how smart he is and makes me want to be something like him where he has a bunch of assets, I used to think he was a goofy guy when I was growing up, now as an adult I see him as a genius
Been with Danny since 500k, and it's been a ride. So proud of what this man has done for himself, his friends, his fans, and his community. Bring back grocery shopping with Danny I've been waiting since 2017 :((((
Danny is SMARTER than he makes himself look. Keep killin it bro!

Danny's video locations give me crazy nostalgia. I miss this place beyond words! All my best memories in life were in the early 2000s in Englewood at our family beach house that my grandparents built in the early 40's or 50's... Then the family ultimately decided to sell the house when I was a senior in high school because distant outta state family members didn't wanna pay their share of the high property taxes..Maybe had they waited a few yrs until I was older I could've taken over but too little too late. I dream 1 day of buying it back while my mom is still alive. Life just goes too fast
