Basic knowledge of tools, laundry, managing finances, and the skill of properly reading body language. Your list is excellent and my father taught me all of them and the importance of knowing them.

This is a highly subjective one, but every man should aspire to learn how to swim. Outside of that, I think this and all your videos are great. Keep up the good work!

throwing them hands is not sufficient, nor are you likely good at it if that's what you call it. need to know grappling, submission, stand up including kicking, plus proper defense. knowing how to throw a punch is not going to get you far against a skilled opponent.
