Understanding personal finances and investing will most likely lead to greater financial independence. By being knowledgeable about money and investing, individuals can make informed decisions about how to save, spend, and invest their money. A trader made over $350k in this recession influenced market

[@StellaMaris-lv2uq]

Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are a-lot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look.

[@maryHenokNft]

I've been in touch with a financial advisor ever since I started my business. Knowing today's culture The challenge is knowing when to purchase or sell when investing in trending stocks, which is pretty simple. On my portfolio, which has grown over $900k in a little over a year, my adviser chooses entry and exit orders.

[@maggysterling33254]

@@maryHenokNft Amazing! I hope it's okay to inquire if you're still collaborating with the same fiduciary and how I can get in touch with them?

[@maryHenokNft]

The decision on when to pick an Adviser is a very personal one. I take guidance from *Gertrude Margaret Quinto* to meet my growth goals and avoid mistakes, she's well-qualified and her page can be easily found on the net.

My needs are kind of unique and complex. I'll contact her nonetheless, and I hope I'm able to make something out of it.

Rob Dyrdek is riding that fine line of genius|crazy. His focus and enthusiasm towards his own life is inspiring.

[@nustuffout]

I just think people are close minded to say he is riding on crazy. I would just say it is genius.

[@Lzrd10]

You gotta have a bit crazy in you to have that level of thinking and get to where he’s at hah so nah it’s def both

[@timothybarr7815]

Overly ambitious in the best way possible. I think everybody else is crazy for not having his mentality. Why would you not want to have the best life possible it sounds elementary. instead everyday most of us make the decision not to.

[@GjerrusAllMighty]

Facts 💯

[@MrIFUX]

Rob Dyrdek has always been inspirational to me. From Rob and Big to Fantasy Factory. He would set his mind to something and do it. And he brought up those around him. I've been a fan

[@jackcybersecurity]

started my own cybersecurity newsletter at 18yo, which shortly afterwards i came across your podcast and you guys have been a big inspiration to continue going. Long story short last week i received my first sponsorship offer and I just wanted to say a big thank you from the UK! p.s. all my friends are obsessed with the podcast now.

[@GjerrusAllMighty]

Congratulations bruv. That's awesome 🤘🏾

[@rickhill]

My takeaway: If Rob Dyrdek would have billed this appearance out at his desired $1 million per hour rate, Shaan would have cost the pod $117k for being late.

This was an incredible conversation. What's awesome is, 3 yrs ago I wouldn't have been able to follow along. Quarantine scared me into financial literacy, reading non stop, & constantly feeding my brain. The simplicity & joy that Rob breaks down the efficiency of growth & upgrading life is inspiring. Great episode. I will be subscribing, thanks for this🤘🏾

[@wazupshaggy]

This episode was a masterpiece that blends thoughtfulness, sincerity, humor, and wisdom. It's mind-blowing to witness the transformation of a man who once resembled the Swedish Chef, devouring business thesauruses and plugging himself into Pandora, only to emerge as a profoundly enlightened and eloquent professor of life. Rob's ability to express himself with such grace and depth is pure gold. I'm in awe of the way his thoughts unravel and how much there is to unpack. Last time I thought Rob Drydek was just a cap-wearing TV host and was enlightened, but this interview revealed a whole new dimension of his brilliance. Years ago MFM mentioned focusing more on brainstorming and less on interviews, but this right here is the reason why interviewing fascinating individuals is an absolute must. The interview quality is multiplied by Shaan and Sam's talent for extracting captivating insights, I seriously can't get enough of their style. They strike the perfect balance, allowing the guest to speak freely while interjecting with just the right amount of valuable input. Although, I must admit, there are moments when they could hold back just a bit more to let the guest fully explore their thoughts - but that's very rare. Last time Rob declared himself as "I am human optimization"? This time he goes deeper with his profound concept of the "Rhythm of Existence" - which you can nearly miss. What an incredible way to define the essence of living. We have operating systems like AppleOS, Windows, and Linux, but now, thanks to MFM, we have the privilege of witnessing the unveiling of "Dyrdek." I say, let's install Drydek into as many people as possible and witness the transformative power he holds! Imagine how the world would change if we embraced his wisdom and perspective?

[@gio_32]

Rob is really down to earth and genuine. I can’t think of another person on any platform that provides so much knowledge and insight. He truly is a genius.

[@thaniaxo]

"You cant even get to that level of thinking unless you have kids" ... this is so true. Becoming a parent really does that to you. It literally brings you to a completely new level of thinking, and viewing the world that you cannot experience if youre not a parent. And that is just the begining... once you bring love and sacrifice (for your kids)...its a whole other level.

[@nicklydon8767]

It’s weird how there is so much liberation from constraints. He is so meticulous but feels so free from it. It’s a strange dichotomy.

[@Samiarain]

Reminds me of Bryan Johnson - 2mil a yr body guy

[@victorazubuike]

Agreed, I thought the exact same thing! As Jocko said “discipline equals freedom”

[@nbme-answers]

This episode had a lot of financial jargon and “buzzwording” (54:53). I appreciate Rob as an entertainer but it sounds like he's a high-income media personality lightly educated by wealth planners mainly offering tax strategy. I don't see any particular insight in this episode except for the very end when Rob talks about what he knows best: showrunning and production.

[@jimhendericks]

Why would it be a constraint, if the that's the decision on how he chose to live his life.

[@funkymonkey7202]

@@nbme-answers agreed feels like everyone here saying this was the best Ep just because Sam and Shaan are saying it

Dyrdek’s degree of disappointment in the guys is hilarious! Y'all steal my time, and you did not research anything to prepare for this conversation. 😂

[@Samsonight33]

I can't point fingers because I don't have a pod/show but so many of these podcasters I watch truly have no idea about many of the topics being discussed and worse, the guests they are having on. It's wild to me. Guess I'm the sucker though.

[@Greg_Chase]

RD got early "product-to-market fit" because of his high profile in skating. "When it rains in the desert, you quickly learn how to make and sell buckets" The 'rain' in his case was all the media/marketers wanting his endorsements and to set up shows. The one thing most entrepreneurs don't get is that - "I am going into this with solid demand." At time 39:10: "The gift that I had early on is I used to look at media and marketing in a multi-dimensional way..." and so on, his great comments about that. At time 39:30: "But I didn't understand how to build and create value in business..." He's extremely smart because he transitioned to CREATING demand in unrelated businesses (not related to his pro skate career) and made bank. Can anyone get a 'freebie' in regards to automatic product-to-market fit? Yep. Rental real estate comes with built-in demand. Warehouses, commercial-residential rentals (apartments), storage facilities, those 'PODS'-like businesses, etc. I bought my first 9 unit apt building in 1993. Compared to all the software and consulting businesses I got involved with later, I always had income from an easy "product-to-market fit" business as it grew. I still think Shaan's "one page strategy for the year" was better, because it organizes what could easily be less-disciplined actions. From the pod ""How This Amateur Copywriter Scammed Victims Out Of $200M (#482)" Don't get me wrong, this was a highly entertaining show - thank you! .

At 42:00 Rob just explained the ideal investment strategy of a family office. If you’re raising money and draft your plan to meet that model you’ll get funded every time. And if you came into money and you don’t understand the tax deferred strategies he just dropped, rewind this section a dozen times.

Hi Shaan, wanted to give you some mad kudos and feedback on the last episode of MFM, like you asked in the podcast. Been listening for about 6 months now, so I came late to the game. I found the pod in a crucial moment though and it inspired me to make a huge change in my life, in the last month I went from an employee in tech to a self-employed, now I'm working on spinning my own business. The episode with Rob was really awesome. Guys has some confidence right? Lot of it was over my head, like setting the trusts etc. I actually DIDN'T feel like it was the best episode you did. I loved episode that were more actionable and where you guys actually did what the show was originally about - exploring business ideas to start. Some of my favorites were the Stanford kids pitching you Shark tank style, that was hilarious. Also loved you going over your Twitch experience etc. Still, I'm just writing you because you SPECIFICALLY ASKED for feedback. I think it was excellent episode, time just flew by. You're my favorite pod, thank you.

Great episode, I have been listening to MFM for a few months now audio only, and I got the voice of Sam & Shaan mixed-up until recently. I could not quite put a finger on what it is that attracts me to MFM until Steph Smith recently said on IH podcast that the magic behind MFM popularity is that it is more entertainment than education. This episode with Rob definitely checks the mark for education for me. I learned a lot, was inspired, challenged, and got some entertainment as a bonus. Never heard of Rob Dyrdek before, but I was so motivated that as of today, June, 22nd 2023, I am making a commitment to give up alcohol and gradually optimize my life in the pursuit of my own version of higher quality of life.
