The advice THIS 45 YEAR OLD has for YOUNG PEOPLE.

[@JeffRichardson-cv5hv]

Good Advice JV. I’m impressed!!!

[@hawkeye5829]

I'd say forget college and learn a trade. College guarantees nothing. A trade will always pay.

[@tachometer-flac]

100%

[@kurtrussell5228]

GASP!!! My gender studies major and minoring in feminist politics will DEFINITELY pay off!!!

[@thousandpercent8512]

^ Don't listen to this knucklehead. Trades have dramatic ups and downs. How many people in construction trades do you think were unemployed in 1974? 1980? 1995? 2009? Et cetera. Career decisions are complicated and one should weigh many factors, not just this silly bumper sticker slogan, "Trades Always Pay".

[@DiFinni]

Agreed.

[@dolittle6781]

What you may want is a career not a job! Find your passion in life and be an honest easy to get along with go getter. If possible work for the government which generally has decent benefits. Go to college and graduate to help you to formally understand more about the things that unite us all and also divide us; otherwise you may fall victim to the never ending cycle of lies and conspiracy theories streaming 24-7-365 on the internet. Besides having a good education is something no one can ever take away from you. Uneducated people are easy pickens for anyone who might want to do you harm. Don’t think that having a trade is enough to navigate a world that’s becoming more politically and socially complex everyday. Don’t be one of the guys that parrots talk radio talking points like so many people nowadays that lack a formal education. Take courses in your major of course but also take courses in a wide variety of subjects to broaden your understanding of the world we live in and explore why things are the way they are. Don’t go to college to party. Go to train yourself in how to think not what to think, which is what many content creators do-brainwash you. Don’t expect your degree to get you a “job.” Gotta develop you personal skills so employers can notice that you have something valuable to bring to a company or some other institution.

1. Disagree. Met my husband in college. Been together over 20 years. My best friend. 2. Agree. Don’t get a dumb degree. 3. Disagree. The college experience of being on campus is priceless. 4. Totally agree. Credit cards can be horrible if you don’t know how to use them.

[@TheRedDevil_NC]

Dont date until you finish college? Are you serious? If you want a family and kids you do it young. The longer you wait, the harder it is to find a good woman and her fertility time is near the end. Plus the longer you wait you will more likely meet a divorcee or single mom and she is likely to get more money in the divorce because you will be marrying and reproducing with her in your higher earning years. Your advice on this is that of a 45 year old man in the 80s.

[@hardcoreplayafromthehimala4888]

"the longer you wait" more other men will have boom boom with you future wife 😂

[@kneel1]

yeah this was ridiculous - i think he meant maybe don't have children? living in college dorm and dating in college are immensely fun experiences i would NEVER suggest that anyone avoid

[@moontides7220]

You wrong. You can be 50 and marry a 18 year old virgin. Just take a plane to Phillipines. Get out of the matrix incels!!😅

[@zachz699]

I didn’t know a single 18-23 year old woman who was interested in being a wife in college.

[@recabitejehonadab2654]

And stay away from drugs!

[@joelnunez6592]

Bro you have great hair.

[@therealjv7]

Thank you 🙏

[@stacybondermann7904]

Good points

[@DavidVonR]

Another piece of advice: Avoid drugs as much as possible and only drink in moderation. Also: Start saving for retirement as soon as possible and do it consistently.

[@monikamoocz90]

I think you are wat too hard on yourself..life is hard..and not everyone follows a timeline of college job marriage kids...i didnt .i say follow your path..i do agree with all your points though and all your videos are right on and inspirational Thank you for these

[@maxsheng8215]

Dating and education dont really confict with each other. You can do both well at the same time. Unless you put too much time prepare or think about dating.

[@sunstruck]

it can skew your judgement when it comes to your goals and objectives though...

[@maxsheng8215]

​@@sunstruckNo it wont. On the contrary it will help you focus on your goals better. Make you a happier individual who don't turn into a nerd.

[@Marty647]

Affirmative. It looks like a tarantula on the top of your head.

[@DeepVerma728]

Advice to young people. Graduate from High School, get a job, get married before having children and you will do fine.

[@rangerdanger222]

Divorce rates are so high in western society that you need to include it in your life plan if marriage is in your life plan.

[@monk4ever]

Get married and have kids? Bad advice.

[@lot2196]

My wife and have been married 35 years. We had three children and bought our second home by the time we were 30.

[@Nissehultan]

@@monk4everYeah i agree, kids? In this economy??? No thanks.

[@CM-jb7fs]

@@lot2196young people can’t afford to do that ya boomer

[@B-HolePatrol]

You have an amazing hairline, sir.

[@therealjv7]

Thank you 🙏

[@celestial_sphere3]

JV you're worried about your hair? Damn, at least you have hair :D

[@raymonddee1059]

work and school. inflation

[@hp7093]

Your hair looks like you have a bowl on your head. Many dreams have been shattered by investing too much in a relationship. Get your boat going in the right direction

[@hp7093]

Starting ok living with your parents is ok long as you have an end game. Far as you are concerned. Get out on your own man. You’re going to be 50 living with your parents. Who wants to get involved with some one like that. Harris will pay off your loans..it’s coming

[@CM-jb7fs]

You’re the exact person he’s telling people to not care about. Anyone who would care is someone to stay away from

[@eXit-ubermensch]

I turned 30 recently and feel so old. Any advice for me?

[@therealjv7]

Wow I wish I was your age hehe. You’re barely hitting your prime. My advise would be to embrace your youthfulness and make the most out of it by going out, networking with people that are going to offer you positive feedback, go to gym if you’re not and try and get in shape. You have the whole future ahead of you.

[@hardcoreplayafromthehimala4888]

For young ppl out there... Invest in you, looks, teeth, clothes etc.. Have sex early, rent or free doesn't matter, just Collect expirience, Education is not for everyone, be a craftsman, earn $$$ early. That's are good fundamentals to start, rest is not guaranteed to Noone.

[@Agent77X]

Get marry at 18-22, and have kids immediately like traditional culture. Do not wait! You may never get married otherwise like JV!😂

[@andrewryan2814]

I became a married parent very young. Part of me wouldn't recommend it, but it really makes you grow up & mature fast. Older I get the more I see that was a very good thing.
