I officially got into "tech" ~5 years ago. First job I learned a lot of basics, jack of all trades type of situation. I only got into a larger networking job the past 3 - one thing I noticed is the CLI is only ever used for ad-hoc maintenance or traffic engineering. Most of the basic architectures are now deployed using YAML, Jinja, and Python. A lot of programmatic concepts and pipelines are used now, and the need for skills with Linux is growing. Linux is by far the greatest toolset I've learned, it's helped me understand networking better, it's helped me understand systems better. The amount of times I use common Linux tools on our config repo to bulk-audit and edit is more often than I think I do full configurations from scratch.

My whole life I have been the type to say no I can’t do that, or it’s to hard, or it will take to much time. Now I’m 34 years old. Working a job that I do not enjoy but pays pretty decently. I spend my free time to things that definitely don’t give me a return. Like playing video games and watching movies and shows. I really enjoy those things and obviously they bring me happiness but lately I haven’t been happy. I feel as though I failed at life because I don’t have this amazing job that requires great skills. Then I think of all the time I’m wasting and how I always make up excuses like I’m just too old to start something new. Well I think your video is a a step in the right direction. I think it’s time to give up some of those things that waste my time and start picking up some things that give me something in return. Great Video and thank you!

Your explanation is realistic and straight to the point. l watch several video's on how to trade in the market but haven't made any headstart because they are either taIking some gibberish or sharing their story of how they made it. And l don't want to make mistakes by taking risks on my own

In my opinion, stocks are WAYYY better than 5% fixed income. IF YOU PICK THE RIGHT equities. There are doubts as stocks historically return 7% after inflation. My wife and I are currently adding a variety of stocks/ETF to my present holdings for the long term. We've started following inflation-indexed bonds and stocks of companies with solid cash flows, I believe it is a good time to capitalize on the market for long-term gains, but it also wouldn't hurt to know means of actualizing short term profit.

[@MarvishaN]

The current market might give opportunities to maximize profit within a short term, but in order to execute such strategy , you must be a skilled practitioner.

[@josephbush]

Having an lnvestment advser is the best way to go about the market right now, especially for near-retirees, I've been in touch with a coach for a year now mostly because I lack the depth knowledge and mental fortitude to deal with these recurring market conditions, I nettd over $490K in profits so far, Its clear there's more to the market that we avg joes don't know that Investment advisors know.

[@aureliobjm]

@aureliobjm The adviser that guides me is HEATHER LEE LARIONI. She works with Merrill Lynch near my old office so I see her often to discuss my business. There are a lot of independent advisors you might look into. But for me, her strategy works hence my result. She provides entry and exit point for the securities I focus on

Through closely monitoring the performance of my portfolio, I have witnessed a remarkable growth of $508k in just the past two quarters.

Hi David, I just came across your channel and I can't say it's a mistake. I'm at a point in my life that I thought it's over looking at the years and resources I've wasted but coming across your platform has changed my mindset. The day we stop learning is the day we start dying. I'm close to my 50 and even though I had my first degree in Computer Science over 24years ago, I can't really say I've developed much in my career. With testimonies here from older people and how they've developed over short period following your detailed analysis and instructions, has really motivated me and I believe I can also testify in a couple of years to come. I specializes in networking and system integration but will like to learn improve myself 1% every day in network security architecture and all related field that will give me a brighter future.

I can’t believe I gave up on it when I got to the middle of highschool. I’m 23 years old now and still fortunate to be young. I like how you’ve rekindled everyone’s passions for technology.

He was telling me that information will be the most precious commodity in the world, and he does not need any school to educate himself. He dropped out of high school in 10th grade and ever since he's making insane figures yet one can never tell how ultra-rich for his age he is(talking about EU standards).
