Reckful Q&A

[@redulus1792]

Can't believe it RIP my man Reckful bless your soul...

[@RednasYo]

I'll always be grateful for all the good moments and memories, Reck, thanks for everything. RIP

[@beraviousargentino9865]

Rest easy man. I remember being in awe watching this as a kid. :( 😔❤️

[@Corkus1111]

It is such an amazing and sad thing to see someone so honest. Obviously he's "made it" in many ways so you can argue it's easy for him to act this way but it truly isn't. In many ways it works out to be the opposite, where someone will make money and be corrupted by it and turn into a machine. Reckful gets so much unwarranted hate because he is a REAL person. Someone who calls it how it is and doesn't give a shit about putting a spin on his words and ideas to make them "digestable" and marketable towards the masses. The reason I said it was also sad is because many individuals like this have a hard time taking steps forward in life because to quote him "you end up doing things so well you find no motivation to try them again". That's just one example, but it's something intelligent and self reflective people really struggle from. Regardless I hope you find that motivation man, and keep making content because it gives many people hope in a small way.

[@flacidPillow]

I agree with all of that. The thought going through my head during the whole video was, "What if he's just bullshitting all of this?" And the thing is, it's such a shitty though to have but it's warranted because Twitch is so plagued by liars and actors. So really I think Reckful is the most honest of the big streamers. If I watch someone like LIRIK or Sodapoppin I always feel like there is something behind the scenes that I don't see. Also, his thoughts on money are so interesting because even though he's quite well off, I feel like his thoughts on money wouldn't change if he suddenly was out on the streets living in a box. It's hard for me to pinpoint what exactly I'm trying to say, but yeah.

[@Corkus1111]

No I know exactly what you mean. It's so easy to see that he does what he wants and it's for the streamers. He's constantly at odds with getting banned etc, or calling people out.. and it's not for his promotion but for his own curiosity/the streamers. Such a breath of fresh air to be honest because nowadays everyone is smiling at you whilst picking your pocket.. or they just have some clear agenda that you can tell is not natural or in character. He's stayed very consistent with the way he has acted from when he was less popular and through it all.

[@krazyito]

This comment aged way too well :(

[@fulahno]

Complex mind behind Reckful, you're an interesting person Byron

[@adrewzi8424]

One of the wisest and most interesting people I've ever had the pleasure of watching he is extremely broad in his knowledge about life and is honest about everything, hopefully I can live my life to become even a bit as wise honest or smart as you are Byron.

[@SuperHighPeps]

Nice to see you back man, you always seemed a really honest guy to me and intelligent enough to be aware of his position. I hope you take your life where you want ^^

[@austinfair23]

Thanks for putting this up, really enjoyed the stream today, more of these please! Chill talks ect

[@Ohn]

I go back and watch this VOD probably yearly. It reminds me of old Twitch. Good times.

[@Jazz9821]

Me too

[@eagleshot1337]

Thanks for uploading this here! I missed it on stream and was gonna watch the vod, but even better now that it's here.

[@marcc16]

This was saved in my Watch later playlist and delivered to my frontage today by the algorithm gods. Maybe it was random, maybe not, but finally watching it now. Hope you’ve found some peace, brother.

[@LauritsR]

I think Byron's way of thinking and speaking to his chat really personally is what really draws me to his stream and himself. I often have a lot of these same thoughts, including economical and personal thoughts, and it is nice to have something in common with someone. I think this makes him the most interesting and entertaining person to watch.

[@Emmetthartung]

I really fucking miss you reckful

[@vinmeist3r]

RIP Byron, We're gonna miss you so bad 😭

[@owlfredo]

I miss this reckful

[@CoDBeastleh]

:'(

[@razexxx20]

Reckful in my opinion is one of the smartest gamer i've seen,i always liked the way he thinks...you have a bright future man don't screw it up!

[@cumbrain]

huh

[@ItsJugg]

miss you Byron :(

[@Yaeshi]

G Reckful this is why i love you !!! u have to do more of this "philosophy" Q/A and videos !!!

[@ketchuponthedog]

[@ketchuponthedog]

[@strife5685]

Rest in peace Byron :(

[@brandon4567]

actually really insightful, thanks for taking the time to do this

[@yournewfarther]

Love this guy; looking forward to something is a key factor of being happy.

[@istvanolah4433]

Rest in Peace my dude... :(

[@UnknownYoutubization]

sad you cut it off right before you talked about your school experience, because I just finished mine and it was pretty much the same for me. I feel you man. Keep doing you, I loved the stream today.

[@Jazz9821]

I love you Byron. Rest in peace in Everland

[@Ultimexx]

watched this video probably 10 times since it was released. every time I find it really interesting to watch even tho at this point I kinda know what he's gonna say. guess the things he says are true and since we always seek the truth, my mind just wants me to re-watch it once in a while.

[@NjoyMoney]

About that money thing reckful, here is my favorite quote "find a job you love, and you will never have to work"

[@santosjohnvictor]

R.I.P to you bro u inspired me a lot

[@xXShaDeXx0]

I really enjoyed this. Thank you reckful.

[@Icypew]

Byron, Thank you for doing all this streams and specially for talking this much to stream. Hope you will be happier when we will meet again on your stream or youtube video. Keep your head up! Good luck!

[@andrewfender3539]

"the camera's like $3,500" - *donation sound* "holy crap that's a lot of money" immaculate timing

[@kummbara1]

13:38 "did you invest in bitcoin" only if we knew man

[@N3RDYLICIOUS]

holy shit, true

[@lightheart144]

While money is obviously important, its not like more money really makes people more happy, I mean look at Robin Williams...

[@cantfindaname123421]

He was depressed. I'm sure money didn't make his situation any worse

[@alec_______]

cantfindaname123421 it did, cocaine and alcohol led him to depression.

[@OhMyMemories]

he had depression and financial problems actually lol :(

[@beautyandthebeard217]

His wife came out and said that he was in the early stages of Parkinson's disease and if any of yous have seen the affects of the disease, you'd would rather be dead aswell. You have to rely on your family and friends to do everything for you, wipe your ass, feed you, help you walk...As hard as it is to think, you become a burden in everyone's life. No cause, no cure.

[@1bebito]

I'm Tyler :3 the financial problems is just a rumor it was already proved on celebrity networth that the dude was rich as fuck

[@shookya6976]

RIP GT advanced tech, may bankruptcy be fast and smooth

[@MrOwnage124]

Very interesting, and well said. Please do more stuff like this man

[@Knigh7z]

twitch deleting all past broadcasts on 27th? that sucks, so many good memories on so many good streams

[@PunfsFN]

i love the background music (25:00) can someone please tell me the name of that or a link to that song? i know he uses something called pandora, but seens i am from Argentina i cant use that page. thanks!

[@ochristopholusyanguss]

Kaskade - I remember

[@PunfsFN]

Chris Yang thanks man

[@hotr400]

RIP reckful

[@KAMTxInferior]

got bored and watch this. i enjoyed every second !

[@shivomsharma4478]

Throwback to jesus reckful

[@felipe8511]

an avarage of 200.000$/year streaming, if streaming for about 5/7 days i cant even imagine how much people like qtpie and other popular streamers can make

[@ooVRolex]

He can also lose in one night of sleeping what people will make in two years of salaries

[@RomanKisil]

at 22:15 he recommended a stock which flapped and Reckful lost 123k$. Just for the record.

[@lucasmasden4425]

***** he didnt care either Just for the record

[@sterlingarcher2250]

+Lucas Masden I really doubt that. That is A LOT of money.

[@Ecliptor.]

+Christian Shrewsbury He explained multiple times that he just lost 70-80k and that it wasnt a lot even at that point.

[@sterlingarcher2250]

I understand that he does not think it is.. But, the problem is that he will not be making that money in 10 or 20 years. I could be wrong, but it is a possibility. I am in no position to tell someone how to spend their money. He earned it, so he deserves to do with it as he pleases. But, in the long term it really is. I would kill to have that kind of money. It would be amazing knowing that I can pay for the classes I am in out of pocket. But, (I have said but a lot) this is my opinion, I could be completely wrong about his future financial situations and I hope I am.

[@mnx0307]

+Christian Shrewsbury He is investing really much and i am sure that he earns more by investing that he loses. So he can keep investing for 20 more years. I am sure that he earns more money by stocks than by streaming atm.

[@Noltagos]

Watched this on the stream, but here's a like for the youtube vid. :) Those talks are awesome - but I love your stream in general. I actually learn/think more about some stuff by watching your stream, which can't be said about a lot of other streams.. Plus you're great at the entertaining part too Stay awesome, and stream more pl0x

[@sheldonvern]

wtf reckful make a video on stocks plz

[@juspeeh]

You are incredibly talented what comes to you explaining and understanding things. You keep it extremely interesting and easy to follow. Keep it up :)

[@BlazingFireXxX]

GTAT (the stock he was talking about) went bankrupt 2 months after this video

[@oliverljungberg2082]

You are really wise and inspire me alot keep going what you doing !

[@pioc3708]

80k for tax so he is making at least 300k as filing single with no dependent pretty dope to make such living as gamer with income from stock trading

[@VictoriousDave]

So much damn good information and inspiration in this video!

[@TheJakubCech]

Ur the best Byron ! Keep doing this Q&A's ! Take care xx

[@KJGAM3R]

do the als challenge you wont, no balls

[@gardenofnightmare]

theres a lot of stuff to learn from reckful

[@nightfall-1095]

Thanks rtz

[@Maxximuss1337]

Do you know guys if Reck going to play Wow again after the uppdate?

[@benlahcakes]

Great Video Reckful :)

[@dennisdavis6105]

rip

[@GRA.97]

Do a separate video on stocks to let the viewers know how you do it? Also, you know the WoW AH challenge where you start with a minimal capital and you try to raise the most money in a maybe a week? And the the one with the most gold winns. Try it IRL and stream it. Kappa

[@PeterTheDeleter]

you should stream more reckful

[@paintball130]

Reck, i want to get into doing stocks. Can you make a video on your research process/ things that you look for when buying stocks?

[@KrasusDB]

Yo Byron, what did you actualy study? You're really smart and yet down to ground...

[@bobshan2035]

I like stuff like this. I'm new to your channel, hopefully you do more stuff like it, I find it interesting.

[@Dopaminbrist]

"OOOOOHMyGAWD, I-cant-believe-its-you-I-used-to-watch-you-all-the-time!"

[@Scionofgreyhaven]

Good guy reckful.

[@ZentaVideo]

Love the background at 11:55, anyone know where to get it?

[@irogaming2795]

Hey Byron I've got some money left over and I'd really like to invest it into GTAT but no idea how and what to invest in the future, could you share some light on your methods? :)

[@khebazzz]

how does he get the stocks to pop up on google search?

[@xKibbs]

800 dollars a day jesus , what a life

[@hellkristia9]

i really want to start streaming runescape 07 but i got very bad internet connection so i cant stream with out lags and disconnects and quality isnt good...

[@vidarvanekstrm-ahlby4688]

Both my parents have to pay 52% taxes every month. In Sweden, the more you make, the more higher tax-precentage you get.

[@flattspvp]

That's gross.

[@XTen1000DaysX]

thats the same in america, your federal tax goes up, but most people are middile school and dont earn over the threshold to pay a lot. but with state/fed tax expect 40% minimum.

[@Laney322]

There's gotta be loops

[@David-uc1gd]

RIP :(

[@nyztan0]

I remember watching the million dollar video live, was a nice flow

[@aaronodonovan3313]

@24:15 when he talks about tax, Isn't paypal/twitch an american company?

[@SamitesFlyFF]

+Aaron O'Donovan he talked about his job as an investor

[@daksinho911]

+Aaron O'Donovan they are both american. Btw does someone know the song in 24:15 ?

[@heyBurmecia]

American Tax rate is 40%

[@flattspvp]

It was less in 2008 b4 Obama.

[@a.wallgren]

Anybody know what kind of education reckful has?

[@AndersAsWell]

Damn the thing he said about him sometimes making his friends 2 year salary in a night really got to me, that is actually disgusting that it works like that

[@tg14764]

+AndersAsWell and 4 months later he lost 5 years of minimum wage salary in one night. it goes both ways

[@AndersAsWell]

Yup and he barely cared about it haha

[@sarhasiu]

I agree with the subs thing, i preffered to buy his T-Shirts, to feel like im supporting and hav something for myself.

[@MERUEM_ER]

Is the God truly back ? :0

[@bloodytotti]

240p FTW

[@PathanzPriince]

Anyone know the first song?

[@xx-wp3mq]

Song at the start? Nice video though! :D

[@Jayme_Le4457]

in description

[@robinsooha7124]

Reckful make a guide on stocks please :d

[@Elizabeth-uf6dy]

To be honest just because you have money doesn't mean you are better. That's stupid how you say people who don't have money are not happy. How would you know . You don't live their life , or have their feelings . Plus , if you are depressed all the time money will not make you happy. I think finding the little things in life can make you happy . I mean, everyone dies and you can't bring that with you. So , what have you really accomplised??

[@jackmiddleton2080]

Holy crap how did he used to be ten times wiser than he is now? Maybe money changed him?

[@PierreHeinleinWoW]

thats how it is ..... nothing more to say.

[@AnzuYT]

GTAT went bankrupt shortly after this vid lol

[@mouse0wl13]

why didnt he set a stop loss

[@NjoyMoney]

Reckful, most people dont watch you to destroy / own in a game, people watch you because you are funny as fuck, im watching your stream for your laugh man, puts me on a good mood :D

[@zachjames7876]

holy shit, you like elliot smith?

[@Liquidazot]

koleś który gra i nagrywa się dla kasy, gada o kasie która nie ma dla niego znaczenia. :D

[@nikola3225]

Fucking 2020...

[@GreenHoodier]

this video made me think trough my whole life. Iam so sad right now, iam 17 and listning to this gives me 0 hope for the future. But I guess its true.

[@gix_d]

+9 REEN Don't listen to him. He's full of shit.

[@gix_d]

***** Cause his perception of what life has to offer is skewed.

[@rasmus1122]

Shadoum Update? Doing better?

[@JKM00]

Can we get an update on how your doing

[@Danielssonyep]

what song at 5:20?

[@SethHU]

MIss this guy, Interesting stuff the stock he mentioned about the apple deal ended up filing chapter 11, and shares dropped to less than a dollar. Somehow, when you look up the share price today it has no chart data but a value of 86ish bucks. Reck would have something like 660k off his trade if they would still honor his shares/never sold.

[@jonhedlund8058]

if you put money in gtat as he suggested you'd lose all your money, they went bankrupt 1 month later.

[@lolzwoot123]

great vid !

[@jxhunger]

10%? Really? Holy fuck. The average Swede pay's 33%..

[@thehumanfish]

Swedes also get a lot of free stuff back ie healthcare, schooling. Its different.

[@jxhunger]

crazystreet128 ''Free stuff''...

[@thehumanfish]

well free stuff paid through taxes that were referenced beforehand. Hence free stuff "back".

[@jxhunger]

crazystreet128 The piont is its not free.. We pay alot each month for that..

[@thehumanfish]

Discokjell the point is your original comment talked about how much more swedes pay for tax, so i decided to mention the fact that you get a lot more for "free stuff" than the states do. They still have to pay for school, healthcare, etc. Its different over here.

[@Jg-ki4hw]

What is the first song called, shazaam cant find it "/

[@Gamersaurus]

+Jg I can't think of the name off the top of my head, but the artist is Blackmill. All of his songs are good, go take a listen to his albums on KZbin, you'll find the song eventually!

[@Jg-ki4hw]

+pogibija Yeah thank you for the respose! Now for anyone that wonders the same, here's the song: " Blackmill - Journey's End (Feat. Lollievox)"

[@breakitdownto]

@@Jg-ki4hw have u got any idea whats the song at 12:25?

[@moinpeter]

good guy reckful

[@blau4594]

Moin

[@MultiJoker88]

yes pls make a vid on stocks reckful i find it really intresting.

[@kiddoo13]

scandinavians are the happiest people? i dont think so...

[@minihjalte]

I know its been a year since you posted this, but its measured in how many people think they have reached their dreams, and people in scandinavia have more realistic dreams. They might have a dream like have a ok paying job, nice family and good friends, where people in places like the US is taught to dream big.

[@kiddoo13]

+minihjalte Ah, i understand. Ratings, man
