I've compiled my own list of a few things I wish I had known when I was that age. Without any further ado, let's jump right
in!
Tip number one is to start saving money now while you still have a safety net. Instead of trying to save a few dollars or cents here and there with each purchase you're making, it's important to set aside money for savings at the outset that you won't be tempted to use when making purchases.
Number two is another financial tip, quality is a better long-term investment than quantity. As a teen, and like we said it's probable that you don't have many expenses but at the same time, you might not yet have a full-time job or any job at all and therefore, not have a great steady source of income, whatever the case, if your income is limited, not only should you be saving money but you should also be wise when you do choose to spend it.
Next up, tip number three is that a conventional high school education is probably missing a great deal of information that you'll actually need to be an adult in the real world.
Number four is a social tip almost everyone is probably just as insecure as you are, if not more so. While it may be tough to remember sometimes, if you are feeling insecure about your personality or your social standing, many of your peers are probably feeling the same things.
Number five, you're not going to be able to please everyone and you shouldn't try to. In the same way that your peers might have certain expectations for you about how to fit into a social group, your elders such as parents, teachers, coaches, and so on might also have communicated to you some expectations for ways your life could turn out. Remember though, the one person with ultimate control over your future should be you.
Tip number six also relates to the point about social insecurity, you don't have to hang around with a group of people you don't like just out of a desire to fit in. Having a group to which you feel you belong is a natural human desire. If you find yourself hanging around with people who don't support your choices, your identity, or your future plans and they're just taking advantage of your desire to fit into some group, you would do well to move on.
On the subject of social dynamics in school, you've probably heard the old line at some point, high school doesn't last forever. While I do agree with this sentiment, in so far as the hierarchies and drama of high school stop mattering once you're an adult, there is also a flipside to this because we now live in the age of social media; your teenage choices can follow you around for much longer.
Number eight is another quick tip on social media, while everyone is trying to present their best selves on social platforms, remember that everyone does have their own insecurities and their own challenges and you shouldn't judge yourself by the standards of other people's social media profiles. Remember that by and large, you're only seeing what other people want you to see on social media and that nobody truly lives a perfect life.
For tip number nine, let's jump back to my earlier point about making decisions for your future as there's an important distinction to be made here. While you aren't too young to have any idea what you want, you are still allowed to not know what you want. Remember here that life is a journey and everybody figures out their own personal path at a different time.
Tip number ten is that making mistakes is a natural part of life and not attempting things just because you fear failure will only leave you stuck where you are.
Tip number eleven and our final tip for today is one of the biggest, speaking from my own personal experience, it's always important to set aside your pride or your fears about other's perceptions of you and to ask for help when you need it. Asking for help is not a sign of weakness, it can actually be a sign of strength. In summary, it's okay to need help because those who care about you will want to provide it.

I have one major tip: work out! I was always a bit of a nerd and liked reading etc. but I didn't take care of my body. But working out does so many things. First, it improves your body strength, obviously. This also means better health. Secondly, a healthy body and a healthy mind go hand in hand. Studies show that it can have positive effects on your mental health and also on your memory. So take care of yourself! It will improve your life quality and may extend your life span.

[@ember2200]

One word Time Depending on the school you might have no time to actually work out properly, or at least not without lacking sleep.

[@elonmush4793]

Some studies suggest that even 10-15 minutes of intense workout (plus some warming up before) every day can have positive effects on your metabolism and heart. I know it's not easy to find spare time, also later in life when you work. But when you spend a lot of a time at a desk, all the more your body needs activity. If you can arrange 20 minutes, that could be enough to pay off.

Millionaires and successful people are not people who never fail, but people who never quit. If you want to be a millionaire, then think like one, act like one, and live like one. Maybe you guys might have seen me on other videos but anytime I write a comment, I always tell my story with it so people know why I am saying what I am saying :) - also to keep inspiring other people because for me, reading other people's success journey is so motivating. :) We own a cookie shop business in our college town. When we first started it, we just graduated college and were living in our car with very little direction, just a huge passion to be successful. I started it out of a local bagel shop in their off hours at night with my boyfriend, Bran. It was a crazy experience but it worked! We became a success! And how we have our first storefront location in New Jersey and the second one in Florida! We started it to fund a year long backpacking trip around the world and to be successful while living the life of our dreams.

OMG. I'm an 18yo girl regularly viewing this channel for quite a while even though I know I'm not really the target audience (gotta keep coming back for all the amazing outfits and color combos 😍) this video was SO AMAZING. Especially the last tip resonates with me so much! Preston, I'm also the similar way! Always got away without studying much if I just attended my classes but the problem aroused when I started suffering from depression and anxiety and often skipped classes because sometimes even walking to class felt like walking through fire... That completely ruined my confidence. I never flunked so badly in life and I'm still struggling to get out of it but I'm literally feeling like there is no way out. I didn't realize how impatient and hopeless I am with studies nowadays.

[@GoldenGarden9]

Great video Preston! As a 75 year old woman (mother of a 40-something son) who loves the "tea" scene and vintage women's clothing, I am thoroughly enjoying the Gentleman's Gazette postings and the comments, especially by your younger viewers. What a wonderful resource you are providing!!

[@Joseantoniomn]

This video is gold. I'm 36 years old right now, lived in Venezuela almost all of my life then moved to Chile almost three years ago, I'm an MD with a major in radiology, it was a challenge because I had to take several test to prove that I had the knowledge to be a doctor and after that other tests to revalidate my major here. I set some goals like I had to study at least 3 hours every single day, also asked for help from some fellow radiologists I met here by being polite and they did help me, and well i made it. If you can dream it, if you set your mind into something, if you have the tenacity and the dedication to stick to your plans, there's no goal you can't achieve. Sorry for my bad English. Great video with great advices.

[@jakobmatthies6553]

That last bit directed towards the "smart kids," a groups of which I once considered myself a member in high school, is especially true. In my experience, I was not "smart," but unchallenged. It wasn't until college that I met the truly intelligent, and most of them were professors. Talk to them. Develop a relationship with them. Ask them for HELP (even your fellow students). They are more than happy to oblige, most of the time. If there is ANYTHING you do not understand, whether in school or in life, ask someone who has experience for help. It has saved my GPA more than once, and it is becoming a valuable asset in my career as well. Be as successful (however you define that) as you can be, both despite and thanks to, your environment.

[@blazinmark1]

Being the son of Soviet immigrants, my parents came here 30 years ago, I was a child of 4 years. From the age of 13 my family instilled hard work and dedication as an indispensable attribute for attaining the American dream. I have followed through with my desire to become an Oculist (Eye Doctor), and have been practicing Ocular medicine for 8 years. As far back as I can remember, not one summer went by where I was not working. By the time I reached 20 I had almost $40,000 saved up, and was able to buy my first car, and invest the rest into the Stock Market. My advice for any teens reading this would be to stay focused and find something that you are passionate about. I can honestly say I haven't worked a day in my life because I love what I do, and you can do the same!

Preston, these are wise words for any age! But it is good to hear common sense and sincere advice to young people who often don't hear it as much as they would like. The younger generation is our future!

[@aceofclubskid]

I'm in my mid 20's and I'd like to offer some points as well. first off, be honest and open about how you feel with friends and partners. It's scary to tell people how you really feel, but it's literally the only way people will understand what you want and need in a relationship. I'm now a very open, honest and direct person about how I feel emotionally and physically, and it has provided more respect from others, and helped my friendships and relationship with my girlfriend. Next, a related point: be cautious of people who are TOO open about feeling unhappy, stressed, etc. I want to be clear that being honest about struggles and needing help are good things, but I'm referring more to people who are always telling you bad news and why their day sucks. If you constantly hear someone complaining about issues, feeling stressed, etc. it's very likely that they have a very pessimistic outlook and aren't trying to find solutions to their issues. They will weigh you down, and you'll feel worse for not being able to help. I've been on both ends of this type of behavior. Lastly, make a priority out of learning rather than being right. Discussions about information and perspectives are often quite exciting and allow you to take in new ideas. Strive to "pick people's brains" and understand how they think and approach problems, rather than debating things like politics, details of a hobby, the "proper" style of suit to wear for an event, etc. Openness to different ideas and new perspectives actually shows confidence and stability, whereas heated arguments can often make you look insecure and unappealing to talk with.

[@jaojao1768]

[@kingnight7464]

I am 19 years old and the last Personal tip you gave especially hit the nail on me. However, in my case I hit the wall academically just now in College, I got grades and test scores so low I can't believe it myself. I know that mistakes are fine as long as you don't make it again so evey time a test is given back I did my best to avoid repeating my shortcomings. There is progress that's for sure but it is too slow for me. Now that you mentioned it, I do have pride especially in academics, I don't appreciate the progress I made because I can't set aside my pride. Thank you for such a good advice, I do apologize for my English for it is not my first language.

[@Akula114]

I personally can't imagine better advice than learning good manners, how to comport oneself, and what is meant by the term, "a servant's heart." Knowing one fork from the other is a sign of respect for those with whom you are dining. And in this time of rebellious "individuality," many people just figure "she can open the door for herself," or "if I hurry, I can beat this old guy into line," is actually a sign of self-importance not yet deserved. Who would it really hurt to get that first place in line, then offer it to the elderly gentleman or young mother with a handful of kids behind you? Do you think that will make you look weak? Or wouldn't it make you look confident and composed enough to show you are in control of a situation and you choose to be generous? As for a servant's heart, you might hear that expression around churches and evangelicals, but I don't think they have cornered the market on thinking of others. Every day, ask yourself how you may be of service to others, and at the end of the day, think back to see if there is something you could have handled better. By being conscious of other people and their needs, you'll also gain respect, a certain kind of dignity from having others only speak well of you, and the knowledge that YOU were able to make someone's day better. Any schmuck can make people feel worse or angry. It takes a person of real stature and self-confidence to make them feel better. You might ask yourself if you have what it takes to be that strong. Otherwise, you are weak and easily controlled by something as trivial as not getting a parking place. Aren't you better than that?

As a 17 year old these tips where extremely useful

[@midslids3210]

Such great advice!

[@vborovikov]

As a 89yo living with my parents I find this advice insightful.

For young people. Live life like the confident, successful person you will be in the future. Life is hard for everyone, limit your phone time, exercise and eat right. Some of the popular kids will be divorced and working as a waitress in their 30s. Have a goals, hobbies and foster close relationships. Remember most friends now are not the friends you will have later.

Don't take for granted what he said, it is all true. Every single point.

I will be 20 next year, and I'll feel very grown up.

[@JezebelBoy88]

@b phillip As a 31yo I feel the same way. Nor do I have any kind of idea, what I would like to do with my life. Well, could be worse. I'm healthy and have lots of interesting stuff to do.

[@Marmot_Love]

@b phillip I have talked to people who say that they don't feel their age. For example, I had a school driver who was turning 50 and she said she doesn't feel any older than before. Also, I meant feeling grown up at by 20 in a more psychological way. Like, "Wow I cant believe i'm going to be 20 next year". When you're younger its a bigger slice, or %, of your life so it feels like a big step.

@b phillip Is that the same man who said "keep your stick on the ice"? Mr. Red Green? It sounds very much like something he would say. "If the women don't find you handsome, they should at least they can find you handy." Pretty sure that's how he said it! LOL

[@garmtpug]

@@Marmot_Love LOL! I'm 69 and feel as I did in my early late teens! I enjoy so many of the same things such as music, books, gardening, and my moral sensibilities have not changed much (at least I think so!) either. It is all so subjective and , how is being 20, 40, or 69 "supposed" to feel, when you really think about it?? You can be an ancient 20 year old or a very young 69 year old!

[@ericmattinen4728]

All great advice! Note that you will be a very different person at 27 than you were at 17. Hind sight is always 20/20.

at 3:15, reminds me of the Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness

[@Imperceptible_parachute]

Excellent!

[@PureInsanity]

Great video. I had a question. I saw that you and Raphael bought many things from thrift stores. I bought 2 silk ties from Goodwill for a good price and was wondering how to wash them? Could you guys help me out?

[@talbertobarbossa75]

They're not even clean? You bought them dirty? You can get clean silk ties at such places easily. Silk is a famously difficult material to clean. Just get clean silk ties.
