Retirement doesn't mean doing nothing. It means doing what you want to do instead of what you have to do - and it's awesome, by the way.

This year I'm a freshman medical students... I'm a a introvert.. but i think I'm the extreme one. I was so nervous what I've become in the future, i don't want to drop out

sir, I have a question. what's first the program we should register to study at university from high school (if want to be a pathologist).

I’m 77 still working full time. Love what I do (legal assistant), great people, great boss. Much of it has to do with my attitude toward my work m, colleagues, customers.

Hello

Great video. Here’s my story: - 20 years applied mathematician - 10 years management - 20 years software enginneer At age 74, temporarily unemployed due to project cancelation. Considering my options. Hope to find something new over the summer (As I write this, it’s early June.) Bottom line: Like and agree with your vid.

My mind always gets very sharp when i am away from work for longer time periods.

good video, good points

are you blind?

I agree with him 💯. I am 66 and still working. I love my job. My husband is retired and he loves being home. He cleans the house, does yard work, laundry, etc. I enjoy my days off and PTO as much as anyone but I wouldn’t want to be home everyday. This is my second career. I’ve been with this company 16 years. I plan to stay as long as I enjoy it. Then I’ll do something else. I initially retired at 43. I did volunteer work and that wasn’t for me. I would often get very little done and nothing to show for my day. I enjoy having a purpose more than hobbies, etc. When I’m off, my husband often comments on how fast the days go. I say, “See, you should work. The days go slower at work”! 😭 The important thing is to do what you love!

Is Physics a requirement in high school to be admitted to Medical school?

I'm extremely computer programming type quiet but looking into become a doctor.

As a introvert, I thought I was alone in this trying to be in medicine because I thought I wasn’t extrovert enough . But this help me so much

I was just wondering if you want to get into the Dentistry which medical degree would be the best that bring your chance up ? Like which medical degree does dentistry at western prefer?

I agree, but it is only if you have nothing to retire to. I retired last year from "Corporate America" & during my working years I just wanted out. It's truly a rat race. The dirtiest rat gets the cheese. It took about a year for me to figure what I wanted because now I have my freedom. Guess what? I just want more freedom. But now I can control the type of freedom I'll have and I control how I will achieve it.

I plan to retire the day I die!

Hello Dani, Right now I am studying my degree and I don't know what are the things which I should do for mcat can you please guide me . Thank you

Why is it beneficial to go over the potential decisions, wouldn't it be more effective to identify the stakeholders and what is at risk, and then spend more time explaining your ultimate decision in that context?

Your video is excellent and I could not agree more. Don’t listen to the comments that say you are too young to have an opinion on this topic. Always remember it is easier to criticize than it is to produce!

20 something expounds on something 40 years into his future - should be the title of this vid. :) j/k , some valid points but get back to us after 40 years of working everyday

BS really I’d never advise people to just keep on working, we’ve been enslaved since childhood… take your retirement early and finally do the things you always wanted to do… no one ever at end of life says I wish I would have worked more…

A 20 year old giving this advice 😅. Appreciate your optimism, but you have no clue what it’s like to be 60 with 40 years of constant work behind you.

Hello did you volunteer during the first school year? Or did you just focus on studying?

Bro, you got your stuff together!

Hi Dani! I am also living in Calgary and I want to study Medicine now. However, I have already completed my undergrad in Computer Science and Engineering and unfortunately my cGPA is not good. Would you please suggest to me about how I can proceed to make my profile competitive enough for a med school application? Thanks!

you are so well spoken and I loved how you gave specific examples like the specializations & which one you chose. im super grateful for this vid as i have about a week to choose between western med sci & mac life sci! 😆

Hi Dani , really appreciate your efforts in video, can you speak more about course selection ? What r the requirements at Western University life sciences program for high school students ?

tyyyy

Can you share your thoughts on Health Sci @Western pls for someone who wants to go to Med School?

Question! Is the Kaplan progress tracker based on any specific year set? Because I have (it's now pretty old version) the 2021-22 set and was wondering if it still applies to this, let me know thanks !

Omgosh this is true I tried to retire and I’m board as shit I need to go back to work. It also ages you sitting around board all day long. No purpose to get up it’s horrible I’m going stir crazy and I have hobbies and lots of friends that still work.

My plan has no retirement within it. I retired from the military pension #1 I work the federal justice system at 50 I can retire again #2 I plan to teach criminal justice at small school/university. Within that career you have holidays off, 2 weeks off during winter break, 2 weeks off during spring break, and 9 weeks off during the summer. I plan of taking trips and never

hello! how'd you do your undergrad in 3 years? is it possible? haha! great vid

Wow this was soo helpful. Im sad, I’m late to the party. Do you think you could add a template for the Exam Krackers books? I have all subjects from that set! Thank you in advance!

Thanks sir

I was told that you should take 90 seconds to respond to each question max, so this scared me but in a good way.

I'm actually very bad at taking Anki notes, probably because of a lack of time and consistency. But I'm using it for computer science which is not really as intuitive for me.

thank you😔🤍🤍

My question is who retires and do nothing? Unless younless you classify traveling, volunteering, working out, going to social groups, ballroom dancing, learning a new language, etc as "nothing", everybody does something

0:59 dude you have strong Ali abdaal vibes hahah

Your cautioning is more from financial burden and returning back to Canada for practice. There are more choices available for IMGs in Europe and elsewhere after graduation. If someone is determined to be a good doctor, sure they can make it as an IMG either in Canada or in Europe, Australia, Newzealand, this is the positive spin I would add to your observations. Thank you for covering the nitty gritty in a short video.

Hey Dani! I remember just over a year ago I was watching all your videos and asking questions about med sci and modules… a year has passed and I will be entering med this September! Thanks so much for the content that you make :))))

YOU may think you'll never retire, but your company may have other ideas. I was downsized out of my job at 67, along with a dozen other people all over 55. After my "involuntarily retired" I had a nervous breakdown and went to outpatient mental health treatment for quit awhile. I finally sold my condo and entered a seniors facility and have never been happier. I have a great community of friends and we visit together, eat together and just have fun. I also read and do blanket-making for foster kids. When I was working I couldn't trust a soul, and the backbiting and nastiness were ever-present. My job involved far too much boring and purposeless activity and I often came home too exhausted to have any kind of a life. I'm 75 today and eagerly looking forward to the rest of my life.

youre not a medical doctor lol

Hi, I just watched your very informative video! Thanks! Question, if you have some insight. I’m deciding between the med science program and the Health Science with Co-op at Waterloo. Is there a disadvantage for doing co-op for Med school applications? Is the med sci program comparable to McMaster life science? Thanks

Dani I think I’m in a very similar position to you. I live in Saskatchewan and got an offer for biomed science in my home province at usask. But I also got an offer for med sci . Which one would I be able to get higher gpa/ prepare for med school in. It’s not really clear online where I can get higher marks in and prepare in.

Hey Dani would you say Med sci is solely for future pre-med students? If I was interested in research and pharmacology, not medicine, should I take Med sci or health sci?

You sir are a champion, my hats off to you for making this. I cannot believe someone cared enough to sit there well dressed for close to one hour just nodding so that premedical students could benefit from the simulation experience. The questions were challenging and very helpful as preparation. Big thank you!

hey how a u. how can I join UO university

I only gave short answers in under 2 minutes and didn't spend the whole 7 minutes. Would this be an issue during the real interview?
