The fact that this guy would inite him on his private jet and give an hour of his time for free to share Invaluable knowledge is greater than anyone could know.

[@themadnessoflife]

Well, let's not kid ourselves here - nobody's giving away valuable time and information for free out of the goodness of their heart. There's always some sort of angle involved, whether it's networking, gaining a new connection, or even just stroking their own ego. But hey, if you can benefit from their knowledge and connections, why not take advantage of the opportunity? Just make sure you're not being taken for a ride on that private jet.

He answered it in the first minute. Why aren’t most people good at sales? They don’t work hard enough.

[@thisisdriveingtohell]

Work hard is not the key The really keys are: - know yourself - love yourself and accept you, be good to yourself - do what you love to do, what fulfils you, what passions you - that’s it. Hard work comes from these ones

That will fulfil you and provide energy to you Then chose the area you really care, you are really interested in, you see your perspective as a person. This is your satisfaction generator.

He’s right about delayed gratification, I kept pouring the profits back into my company, you have to do it if you want to grow. What people don’t understand is wealth is a great responsibility.

[@teacherbrad9534]

Shawn is the real G. Would listen him all day

[@MontCoRealtor]

Superior advice and straight up. Only thing I disagree with is the concept of walking away from relationships when they don’t work for you or when you pivot. I have seen the best people in the world maintain relationships for decades because you just never know when that person may come back into your world. Obviously you can’t foster every single relationship super deeply, but you should never just turn on them. I’ve had clients come to me solely over a relationship referral I had at 20yrs old. I’m 49 now. Other than that, this guy is so honestly direct and truthful. I love every second!

[@themadnessoflife]

I appreciate your perspective on maintaining relationships for the long haul. It's true that connections can unexpectedly resurface and bring value after years of absence. However, it's important to strike a balance between nurturing enduring relationships and recognizing when it's time to let go for personal growth. Sometimes, walking away can be necessary for both parties to thrive. It's all about finding that sweet spot between loyalty and self-preservation. Here's to navigating the fine line of relationships and finance with grace and wisdom!

My older brother is a millionaire. 15 years ago I paid his rent and gave him a computer. Now he all he does is call people that aren’t rich lazy and he thinks he’s better than other people. He also lies and tells people he did it without any help. Money makes some people turn into arrogant pricks

[@luizneves2190]

Money doesn't change people, it reveals the true identity

[@commandersprocket]

Spend 10 minutes and find a video about Paul Piff and his experiments with Monopoly. PI is a social psychologist, your older brother is behaving in a sadly normal way. If you have 20 more minutes, I would recommend watching a video about the Stanford prison experiment, and then the Stanley Milgrim shock experiment. I think Homo sapiens has a bug around social psychology, authority, role based behavior, and advantage. For every man in the orange jacket like we see herethere’s 50 that had all the skill and self belief and desire, and didn’t make it. Right place, right time. You still don’t make it unless you work hard and believe in yourself, but the opportunity has to be there..

[@Resilientlyblessed]

That’s why God processes people before he elevates them. Don’t skip the process

yeah i would say your brother was probably already arrogant before he became more wealthy. money only amplified it.

Thank you for the kind words! Producing top-notch content definitely comes with its costs, so it's important to make sure that the revenue generated from it is worth the investment. It takes a combination of creativity, strategy, and financial savvy to keep it all running smoothly. So yes, it does start with me, but it also relies on smart financial decisions to keep the content flowing.

It's always refreshing to see someone break the stereotype of a snobby millionaire and instead show humility and compassion. True success isn't measured by your bank account, but by the impact you have on others. Kudos to this individual for demonstrating that being a man of the people is the true mark of greatness.
