1. I love this video because it is realistic asf

   1. Thanks, I do my best to keep it real!

2. Well two guys here who are a pair of watchmakers, (not watch mechanics). We love the client they are affluent and a joy to service, many over the years became our friends today, we are also building in our own watchmaker machine shop a pair of products to sell to other watchmakers, looking forward to that as well, we are very grateful to be able to have the time of our lives.
   Loved the video and yes even the drop shippers are our clients well a few maybe anyways enjoyed.
   Lance & Patrick.

3. His companies made $22M a month and he spends his extra time making these videos. That is so believable.

   1. I believe him.

   2. He didn’t say he profits $22M a month, he said his company makes that, so it’s probably gross income before major business expenses. Didn’t mention if he takes a salary either

   3. It is. #4 of Maslow’s hierarchy of needs. Esteem Needs. The need for recognition and respect from others.

   4. It’s actually a combination of ego rush AND the urge to share information.

   5. You guys do know that social media is the best branding mechanism….. right…..?

4. Last year, some brilliant (book-selling) you-tubers convinced me that governemnt contracting was a great business to start. I too quickly realized that being a middleman sucked…

5. If an influencer is hyping something up, then the sun has set on that, this man is honest and genuine.

   1. Don’t you GET it? This clown is just “hyping” HIMSELF up! Just ANOTHER wannabe “influencer” peddling BS in order to attract more clicks, likes, and subscribers.

   2. Same for stocks!

6. Clearly, the most profitable business these days is becoming a YouTube get rich quick video blogger.

   1. Except he actually runs a real business.

   2. In terms of low overhead and getting to set ridiculously high price for the courses you sell, it’s low risk potentially high reward. The field is oversaturated tho so the algorithm gods have to favour you or you have to know SEO to make that happen

7. The cleaning service one REALLY depends if it’s a success or fail. I’ve been at it for a year and so far it’s helped me make a decent living and I got great clients that use me regularly. If you put in the work and market right it can work in your favor.

   1. Totally agree!

   2. Wow!

   3. @@davidfilterbuy Thought about starting a coaching mentorship?

   4. David mentions niche in that part. I know someone in the niche of hospital janitorial and he makes a killing.

8. In a parallel universe, this guy tries his hand at dark and witty screenplays and directing films and marries his ex-wife’s daughter. As for this side of reality, solid advice.

9. Excellent video! Remember- when someone wants to share a goldmine with you, that’s because they need you to remove all of the dirt.

   1. Good One!

10. Self Storage units are everywhere you look. I am noticing that Warehouse, Storage & Transport are going bankrupt every week and I don’t know why. Car washes are everywhere, when we come across a new cheap way to make money, everyone jumps on the bandwagon and fairly soon there’s few customers. I am a window cleaner/handyman and its the best one man band I have every come across but its labour intensive, so very few want to put in the energy to do it.

11. Rule #1 in business/investing: If Everyone is recommending you to take some action, it’s already too late.

12. One statement that you made has been a mantra of mine: if you find something that makes a lot of money you aren’t going to tell everyone about it. Very simple. If you’re a gold miner and you find the mother lode do you tell all of the other miners? No.

13. It’s weird to me that turning time into money is now considered a bad thing, or at least less than ideal. Find me a seriously wealthy person who doesn’t depend on employees trading time for money? If you don’t want to be that person that’s fine, but there’s nothing wrong with working for a wage.

    1. The thing with trading time for money is ppl know they can’t keep doing that indefinitely and start to plan for retirement. That means taking some of that money they got selling their time and making more money with it.

    2. I heard a great quote that sums this up nicely: “we’re all wh0res. We just sell different parts of ourselves.”

14. As a writer for two decades, I see a lot of people trying to cheat the process. Especially now with Ai. All they’re doing is putting at subpar content or getting a little traction only to chase the next story trend. Getting a loyal audience is a lot harder than it looks. It takes years of experience in a field, then learning how to market yourself in this quickly changing industry. Not much is the same in the lit world or Hollywood from just a few months ago. Your advice is solid & refreshing. Thanks.

15. private equity ruins everything 😂

    1. It can be toggled off in some individual cases but my default position is that all billionaires and private equity investors are sociopaths

16. Probably the best business vid I’ve seen on YouTube!

    1. Thanks so much! Really doing my best and intend to keep improving and finding ways to articulate real value.

17. Never trust an “influencer” trying to flex on you in a private jet

18. In the early 90’s I owned a Limouisine service. It appeared so sexy and fun. In reality the phone rang all hours of the day and night. The occasional celebrity job was a freebie for promotion. The overhead crushed you off-season.

19. The wine industry. It’s terrible. It’s capital intensive, it takes years of investment just to sell a bottle, there are thousands of competitors, there is zero customer loyalty, and access to distribution channels (i.e., shelf space or restaurant menus) is very complicated. And many rich people keep entering the wine industry because it is supposedly sexy and cool, so competition among new entrants is always very intense. AND, on top of that, demand is falling, because younger people don’t drink wine like millennials or gen xers do! Avoid it like the plague.
