I'm turning 16 this year. I'm a teenage businessman, but an aspiring entrepreneur from South Africa. VALUETAINMENT is my business bible. I am so glad I found this channel on KZbin, Thanks Pat! By sharing your knowledge, you help more people than you can imagine. I appreciate the fact you take time to focus on teenage entrepreneurs too, it is definitely a big help and I really look forward to finding out about those 10 books you recommend for us teens. Stay well man, all the best.

Hey Pat, I've been watching your videos for about a year now. Ive been selling things since I was a 9 year old girl, forming small "businesses" here and there. When I discovered your channel, my world changed. I've been reading the top 100 books you have recommended on your website and following the advice you give. You are an inspiration. Your videos have helped me grow my advertising business immensely! As a fifteen year old girl, it is hard to get people to take you seriously. Your advice and videos push me forward. Thank you for the videos you make!

What do u mean by break rules?

[@numaan6949]

VALUETAINMENT great video thanks for the video i love your speech and video

[@filippobiagiotti4221]

Pat i never post any comments but this video really helped me. I'm 16 and my parents divorced when i was 12, it's been tough for me but you made me realize that i'm not alone. I hope you will learn about me soon, i plan on being really successful and i'm working torwards my goals. Thanks for the amazing content you and your team make.

[@kucam1]

Pat, you should vlog "Life of an entrepreneur". Just take a camera with you throughout the day and tell us what a succesfull entrepreneur does all day, how you handle certain problems, Some launchcontrols in your aventador ;D Shlomo from belgium!

watch Gary Vaynerchuk he does it

[@JetoPozitivisht]

Totally agree

[@CutieSparkling]

yeesss do it ! i'm 20 but i still need guidance and knowing if someone is going through the same thing

[@kakerake6018]

rsn:kucam1 I hate vlogs they have no real structure and too visually oriented ,I'd rather not look at the screen all the time when I listen YT

[@daltonfuchs3847]

Mr. David, I just want to thank you for taking time out of what I am certain must be a very busy life just to help those who wish to get where you are. My parents are both successful entrepreneurs, and as soon as I showed them your videos I could see how excited they were, and how much they loved the messages you share. It's not just the education, it's the motivation. You inspired me to start educating myself on business, finance, and marketing. I used to just complain that the school I attend doesn't offer the courses I wanted, but thanks to the inspiration and education you provided I am able to start taking control of my own life. Wishing you all the best, and thanks for all of the help.

[@cxa011500]

Awesome content! I think most of this advice applies to teenagers in general, and people of all ages would benefit from taking it. Another thing that I feel it's important to suggest to young people in general, is to not let your progress in school dictate your progress in life. I mean, don't think that you have to wait until you graduate high school (or college) or even wait until your turn 18 to start working on your plans. And don't wait to be spoon-fed knowledge from teachers. People have the ability now to go out and learn whatever they need to know about whatever they are interested in. They should just go for it as soon as possible.

[@Jacklambourn]

In a world of short term fixes and the constant hunger for instant success I live this quote by PBD "The ones who will get ahead will be those who can focus on one thing at a time". I have done a daily realistic to do list for the past 2 years and It has rocketed my productivity compared to my peers. Dont get caught up in jumping ship every couple of months.

[@suhailshaikh8125]

Hey! Thank you, Pat, I'm an 18-year-old graphics designer, I founded my design agency. I learned a lot from your Channel. It has really impacted my business a lot, especially the Size v/s Reposition Video. My growth has increased by 178% and that's only because of you. Thank You, Man.

[@benlim4862]

I recently started niche site to get a taste in starting an online business myself. I thought it would be really easy theoretically and it probably is (because there are tons of how to guides for affiliate marketing online), but the biggest problem right now is believeing I can actually do this. Whenever I start to have doubts creep up, I watch your videos and read the Top 100 books for inspiration and knowledge. They really get the juices flowing in me to act. Thanks for creating awesome content regularly, and I hope to see more in the future.

[@andrei-dodea]

Just when I started to think you're going off into the mainstream you post this big boy and talk directly into my soul about every problem I've had so far as a man.

[@shailendra800]

hey Patrick!! today I've started my own library services. I'm 18 years and after watching your video I printed a board and put it outside my home and I got 4 orders on the first day. thankyou for inspiring me! keep rocking

[@shimon9559]

imagine Pat gave up when he was 10 years old ??? you are as great as musk and jobs and every one. this channel is one of a kind!!!!!

[@zacharycucinella9452]

Hey Patrick I am a young 20-year-old inspiring entrepreneur. Wanted to say that you have been touching the youth of your audience. "Good Information"

[@bostonbyerly6480]

Another great video Pat! I have been changing my friends but the main thing I've been doing to surround myself with people above me is watch your channel as well as read books!

[@bvotaw]

This video was timed perfectly. I am a teenage entrepreneur and my siblings are always negative when I talk about business. This helps me realize I just need to block them out. THANK YOU!

[@VALUETAINMENT]

+Brandon Votaw share this video with them.

[@angelomateas3570]

I am 27 now and I got amazing value from this video. I wish I would have someone like Pat when I was 15. On the positive we have access to his wisdom now so let's get to work.

[@doganulusoy5014]

Nice content. I agree that there is always someone who tells you to stop or don't dream. Don't listen to them, keep WORKING and watch video deck of cards. Love from Paris

[@VALUETAINMENT]

+Dogan Ulusoy much love. Keep chasing.

[@Ro7770]

Really appreciate this one Pat. Can you do another one on that nature for people who dropped out of college?

[@wascallywabbit3372]

Reading crappy books thing is something I have always believed even when I was little I always would read books that would benefit me or increase my knowledge but we didn't have anything on helping you so it was mostly light sound electricity or ocean encyclopedia books ect. I always got in trouble for it and they made it a rule to take one fictional book and I used to tell my family when I was little that fictional books were boring and they don't benefit your life in any way. When we got older my family said I was the one reading the boring books the whole time and maybe I am but they still interest me more. Thank u for ur entrepreneur books and books on bettering self ect and content

[@versastyledio]

😂😂😂the amount of banter you have with Paul!!! I guess he gives some back to you in private ! Great video. I think those mistakes are applicable to "employees" who hesitate to become entrepreneurs

[@Great1G]

Man this is so powerful, wish my teachers had advice like that when I was 18.

[@nerdknowledge2056]

You should be a spokesperson at a school. You are really helpful!

[@lilianamurillo1262]

Hey.. I'm almost 30.. currently working for a rail road. I'm extremely expired by ALL your videos.. but this advise is great! I do believe never to late to release that entrepreneur that is hidden somewhere. Keep posting.. I'm learning so much!

[@lilianamurillo1262]

*inspired..

[@kakerake6018]

you here talking about avoiding ppl who aren't driven yet that was me in highschool, for some reason my friends who were doing good let me tag along(they thought i was smart but in reality i'm clueless af) best decision i'd made my entire life since i got exposed to their network and great work ethic.

[@Mister_Bimmer]

I wish there was a challenge like yours 10 years ago too Pat. It's just outstanding.

[@benwilson1082]

As a fellow teenager I am very happy you are doing some more videos specifically for us. Thank you so much and can't wait for the teenage books video.

[@michaelcastillo2608]

Thank you Pat for making this video 🙏 Your channel is giving people a head start bigger and better than ever seen in history before. More people are gonna be happier and more successful much sooner than any generation in history! That’s the type of impact I intend to make. I’m 23 now and I’m driven to have as much positive influence as I possibly can on the world

[@muhammadali5520]

I'm 16, From Ukraine, oh my God it's SO GOOD CHANNEL FOR ME THANK YOU, I WISH EVERYTHINK BEST

[@99nerfninja]

I just finished the video, and in honesty, maybe 80-90% of the points in the video I naturally have been doing my entire life, and that's relieving. The only thing I've been a bit off about is the idea stealing topic, and I've been better the last few months now that I'm in more scenarios where it's better to talk about it, it still worries me, just because of how large it's capable of being. Is there any tactics to truly getting better with that other than simply being more open, or is that really it? It'd help a lot, and the entire video's once again very well made and thank you.

[@adultadventures1597]

Great video, watched it several times so I could watch more ads to support you a little bit! Awesome content

[@carlapierini7547]

I believe success makes you lose friends- as you said they are wired to compare themselves to you, and turn out to be pissed or jealous when you succeed.. that's what always happens to me and it makes me feel bad

[@andreasisaakme]

As a teenager I can only say: Great video, as always. Especially #BreakTheRules is very important! Thank you very much, Patrick. Looking forward to more episodes dedicated to teenage entrepreneurs.

[@mrjordan7304]

Wow, you're awesome pat! Everything you just said described me, I'm always alone because I think different, all of my teenage classmates think about girls and money while all I think about is how to change the world. I'm 16 and don't fear living with my own rules. I had two teachers calling me stupid and kicking me out of an IT competition because my idea "doesn't grab attention"Hopefully I can make it one day! Thanks Patrick!! PS: just subscribed

[@garydavisson4870]

I love your videos! I am a teenage entrepreneur myself. I am bound to change the world, and can not wait for the future. You are the best, and keep posting your amazing content.

[@ScorpionrulezMK]

Hey Pat, I'm watching every single one of your new and old videos, studying you hard and making notes but I haven't watched every single video of Valuetainment YET, so I'm not sure if maybe you already have a video on this topic, but as a suggestion, I would love if you could make a video on How Millionaires, Billionaires, yourself, rich people in general manage their money. What do they do with all that money they earn for themselves? I'm sure instead of saving every peny under their couch or spending everything, they make more money out of that since money makes money and the more money the easier it is to do so. I'm still young and am not a millionaire or anything yet, but before I am, I would like to already know that and if possible start applying it right now with whatever I have. In other words, make a video on how to make your money work for you on all ways to do so, in depth, like you always do in all your very high quality videos. Thank you very much, you don't know me as much as I know you, but I'm very much like you in the way to think, desires, mentality of life, obsessions, work ethic etc.. You are one of my main mentors and you've inspired me and showed me the path into finding what I really want to do out of my life which was a mystery. I will one day meet you in person and repay you the favor somehow. For anyone else maybe reading this, if you also want to know about this topic, like this comment so it gets more exposure.

[@ryand5143]

This is my new favorite channel

[@guillermojr.1035]

This video really resonates with me, specially the last tip of where you get your content. I will be studying Valuetainment ALOT more now

[@illiteratequinn1268]

I'm 16 and It is soooo hard like no one else understands how badly I want to be a successful entrepreneur. No one really supports me and I have so much pressure on me. Even my ex had broken up with me bc she didn't understand what I'm going though and how depressing it is. It's hard to not give into the pressure and just go with the crowd. I think I need to surround myself with better and more creative people. Sometimes I feel so alone but people like Patrick and grant cardone, my vision and reading my books are really the only thing that are keeping me going. If anyone actually read this whole thing thanks bc I'm sure most people won't. I hope that you become successful one day and accomplish your dreams

[@JSskateboarding1]

I'm 15 and currently investing in myself with videos, books and online courses but I also open to ideas on creating income to further support my self-education. I wish to learn how to improve my situation. I'm not looking for easy money but I dont know where to start right now. Hope to see you come to Malaysia one day.

[@Ddogg]

Real genuine video, I feel as if it was tailored specifically to me. It's uncanny how he gave real world examples that mirrored my life ; he says things I wish I would've heard earlier nevertheless it's still nice hearing lessons and advice from someone else, especially ones you deem valuable. I wish I found this channel sooner, will be going back and watching more.

[@artemshiryaev2238]

Thank you for trying to help the younger generations! There is a new company we saw on the news today in az, called Venture Kits, I believe. They are trying to get even younger kids to go towards the entrepreneur side of life as well, you should check them out, they have a similar goal in mind. Thank you for everything you do Patrick, you have even given me the mental tools needed, to quit cigarettes! Today is my 4th day free of them. I can't thank you enough. Hope this finds you and your family are doing well. Keep up the amazing work.

[@ExtremeHugger]

Hey Pat, my parents always tell me I'm wrong just because they are older. It is actually funny. Also, my immature friends and my teachers don't believe that I can be rich or successful. It is just so funny when those people see me succeed and see me do the right thing, and they realize they were being stupid. Thank you so much!

[@adriantheboss1215]

I need useful advice, help, or an angelic hand right now...I've started 2 biz which is copywriting biz, and a life coaching biz now at 16. But don't be fooled...I'm a little bit intimidated and here's the best part: I don't have any payment methods. That said, I have no clear answers yet but, my vision tells me that I should focus on experience rather than money.

[@catalincata9043]

I gave out a business idea to a friend and without telling me he goes and makes plans to open up that business. I believe there are people out there that if they have the money or resources, they will hijack your idea and profit, without even giving you credit for it. It can be a big idea or small idea. I sugest you keep it to yourself and dont let any information leak out.

[@benlim4862]

I'm sorry that happened to you, but from what you've written here, it seems that your friend didn't really execute the idea yet; he/she's making plans, not actually implementing. Anyone can plan to open up a business. It is the ability to take massive action and stick through the tough times that will make someone see success in their business. If he/she actually started the business, even though it will be painful to watch him/her, you could learn from watching their mistakes to see what you could do better when launching your own business. Don't worry, plenty of ideas will come to you down the road. Just be sure to execute quickly next time. I hope you don't get discouraged through this experience; I hope it will make you stronger because of it.

[@catalincata9043]

Ben Lim I agree with you!

Hi Patrick, am Jemimmah from Kenya in Africa, Thank you for the awesome content you have on your channel, its truly informative and inspiring to say the least and i find value in watching it everyday, keep up the good work. My request is if you could make a video on how to value a start up company. I do have a homecare startup that is going to revolutionize the whole industry in my country and Africa in general and i recently got an investor, who is very much willing to invest in the start up, the problem is valuing the company so that we can both get value from it. A video like focusing on that would really help me.. i will be waiting. Thank you
