If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.
The first step to successful investing is figuring out your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but is very advisable you make use of a professional like I did. If you get the facts about saving and investing and follow through with an intelligent plan, you should be able to gain financial security over the years and enjoy the benefits of managing your money.

Wow. I'm a bit perplexed seeing her been mentioned here also Didn’t know she has been good to so many people too this is wonderful, I'm in my fifth trade with her and it has been super.
Looks like she really knows her stuff. I also found her online page and read through her resume, educational background, qualifications and it was really impressive.
My own mother taught me the same principle, but it was when I was 10 , not when i was a college graduate. What she actually said was , " If you're looking for sympathy , you'll find it in the dictionary between Sh!t and Syphilis."
Taking early notes from successful individuals as to the importance of sound asset diversification and risk management It can’t be overstated. I’ve been trying to grow my portfolio of $300K for sometime now, I would greatly appreciate any other suggestions.
Yes true, I have been in touch with a financial advisor. With an initial starting reserve of $80k, my advisor chooses the entry and exit commands for my portfolio, which has grown to approximately $550k.
Sophie Lynn Carrabus is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment..
I’m going into my second year in Maynooth University. I’m studying accounting & finance, and my god, I’m finding myself falling more in love with the world of business. It is so interesting. The numbers, what they mean, professionalism and so much more. There is a key life lesson behind that saying about the dead bird & it couldn’t be any more bang on.
@@steveb6718 I disagree to a certain extent. Humans will still have a role to play in the accounting world, even if AI will be able to do most of the tedious labour; a human will still have the final say e.g. regarding closing off final accounts, if you will. Another positive about my degree is that I will graduate as a financial advisor too, which is not as ‘under threat’ from AI.
@@CecileWardale yep. Forced me to survive or die. I worked my ass off after high school while my friends partied. Now they struggle and I’m doing better than I ever thought possible.
My parents took similar action with my brother, sister, and me. They paid for our first year of car insurance. Before I graduated from high school I bought a car and realized the value of time, insurance, gas, and maintenance needed. This helped me develop my formula to successfully function responsibility with almost everything I do.
I'm a high value man .my advice is to let jesus be your guide because when you on your death bed what's going to have the highest value is going to true hope and that only comes from THE LORD JESUS CHRIST!!!
@@essence2302 Really? Did he say that? To be saved, he said we all have to follow the law (of Moses). Billions would have had no idea at all what he was talking about.
Besides Kevin's honesty during interviews, he really knows how to talk confidently without mumbling. Can you tell us how you improved your public speaking abilities becuase I rarely see you mumble for words.
Just go out and start talking to random strangers on the street. Spark up a random conversation. Greet them, compliment them, talk to them about the weather that’ll take the fear out of talking to anyone. As for having things to talk about, the more you talk to people the more you’ll learn on how to keep a conversation going
3 things that have been changing and literally transforming my life: 1st: Seek the Lord, 2nd, fear the Lord, Love the Lord my God. Everything outside those things are basically worthless.
@TLOH7 You’re definitely right and I needed to hear this. If it’s okay with you I’d like to reach out and seek advice concerning life. You seem to be prudent and I’d appreciate if you’d spare a minute to advise me.
My son gave me an amazing tip: The best dressed person in the room always wins. How many of these interviewers are dressed like Kevin. Kevin gave everyone a tip without saying it. Dress better than the others in the room.
What do you mean better dressed? Who is to say that tux is better than shorts or sweats? You mean dress like you just came from the office? Real rich people could care less about clothes
@@chartedtravel1776 I wore a suit, white shirt and tie into a construction meeting and the general contractor wore blue jeans and a polo shirt. We had an eight foot discrepancy(bust) on moving dirt on a huge site. I walked away with $7 million dollars for trucking 800,000 cubic yards. Each truck had an hour run to the dump site. The general told me he dressed better than anyone he was negotiated with. Try negotiating in flip-flops blue jeans and a t-shirt and see how much leverage you have. Always buy the best, eat the best and be the best.
plus look at that Cool dude in white shorts showing his cock..I mean if not dress well at least sit well, talk well.. as thousands of people are looking at the video..body language posture etc also matters.
Not if you're being asked to do technical work. They ask you challenging, job-related questions. Not if you're an attorney. A well-dressed attorney still can't put enough lipstick on a pig of a case to win. Being well-dressed may sometimes be an advantage, but I would prefer someone adequately presentable who tries 100 times to a fashionista who tries ten times.
@@EllenGreidinger I was a Grading foreman who wore blue jeans ever day and walked into the negotiating meeting in a suit and tie. My company was building a 6 mile test track for Hyundai in California City California. For the recon I wore a suit and tie and met the president of Hyundai who needed a translator to communicate. At the end of the construction on the track , he offer me a job.
Kevin you are entertaining which is something people are your age never manage to accomplish and its a great value to show why people like myself enjoy watching you.
Some things we thank our parents later for, especially when it comes to issues of moral integrity. It's good to be spoiled with advantages, while not being spoiled rotten as is so typical these days.
Thank goodness you brought this up! Truly, investing has changed my perspective on how one can succeed in life; working multiple jobs isn't the optimal way to attain financial freedom and unfortunately, we discover this later in life. Currently earn as much as 10 grand weekly and this has improved my financial life. Great piece!.
Wow, congratulations on your impressive investment success! Your discipline and focus on delayed gratification is truly inspiring. I'm curious, what are some of the key factors that you consider when making investment decisions? Do you have any tips for those of us who are just starting to dip our toes into the world of investing? Thanks for sharing your story!
she's a known advisor. I actually did look her up curiously and went through her credentials on her webbsite... Top-notch! I wrote her an email, hopefully she's accepting new intakes.
I found this very informative and helpful. However, he also had the psychological advantage to know that if something horrible happened and he couldn't make it or whatever he would have the support of his family regardless of what is said in this interview. That is huge.
Big ups to everyone working effortlessly trying to earn a living while building wealth. My wife and I we are both retired with over $2 million in net worth and all paid off debts. living smart and frugal with our money, made it possible for us this early, even till now we earn passively with our asset coach. Adapt to a lifestyle, be thrifty, set a budget, save money and build more streams.
Excellent choices having a great savings and more streams to earn makes life goal’s easier but our way of life needs better alternative,at the same time, people also need to be more responsible. I know for a fact that there's a lot of people that simply don't make enough, I make roughly hundred plus a year and in California, thanks to rent inflation alone eat up almost all of what I make, with dependents and other obligations included, it's easy to end up with zero. however it’s a good time to add to existing asset holdings as follow -on opportunities
MY Dad gave me the speech at age 17 telling me I could have any car I wanted and go to any college I wanted the only thing is I had to pay for it myself. And that included the insurance. The best thing he could have said to me.
Best message from this is to keep on going, be persistent and don’t give your kids everything. The unfortunate part of this is not acknowledging that Kevin and many other ppl regardless of background have a safety net and completely different resources. So although this video has gems it doesn’t address how to overcome adversity even when odds are stacked against you.
I was raised with no free anything but also told big success was for other people (while also taught I was special and could be anything I wanted to be.) My whole life I made every dollar with my hands but always discouraged, even unsupported, if I took selfish risk on things like investments and such. I was a fool for buying that. I have a lot of talent but don't know what I will do when I cannot create a living from my hands and skills.
Ditto with my upbringing. But thankfully i saw through my dad's BS and took serious interest in trading. My dad was like making too much money is for bad people - good, honest people just make enough to lead a decent life. This is a self defeating, self limiting mindset that must never be put into kids. Most parents are secretly afraid the kid might surpass them
@@doncorleone3901 a mistake not learning to create anything with your hands, not even confident about your gifted hands, first n secondly to survive! Open your eyes now! Moments are precious!
Wow. I did something similar with my 3 girls. I told them they could live for free at home for one year after college. Two of the three were financially independent once they graduated from college. The third one lived at home for 3 months following college. I basically haven’t provided for them since college. All three have jobs and own homes.
Kevin, you have a developed ability to recognize potential in a person. The question is, a person who has good ideas - but there is also something that blocked the implementation of ideas, how does this person get the confidence to implement ideas, is it even possible? A person's situation has been good for a long time and there has been no pressure to change or develop.
When it comes to the world of investing, most people don't know where to start. Fortunately, great investors of the past and present can provide us with guidance.
The best thing my parents ever did to teach me about money. I graduated high school in the middle of May, 1985, June 1st, rent was due. After some bitchen on my part, checking rent prices in the area, I came to the conclusion, a couple hundred dollars a month wasn't so bad.
What Kevin talks is reality. The world will kick the shit out of you if you just take your degrees and certificates to showcase yourself but if you know something what other 8 billion people don’t know then the world will look for you, give you opportunities, money and power to rule their organizations, country or institutions. Don’t be the herd
I can say Kevin I being mentor by two of the best Produce guys I would say in Canada and they had great knowledge as they were king but very humble people never cocky just down to earth people I learn a ton in that field plus I had great mentors in Loblaws grocery department as both had years of experience it's a eye opener when your taught by the best Experience is king
1981 was my 8th grade year and my parents were going through a divorce and selling the farm. I decided I was going to have a manufacturing business. Between the summer of 81 and 83 I got a tick bite. Fast forward to 2013 after decades of suffering mysterious health problems I was diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease. Wasn’t able to ever start that manufacturing business. I’m 58 now.
the best advice from MY mom.......nope, I got nothin".... She died in 2010 and her last words weren't words at all, she died screaming....I've always wondered about that.
These are very valuable rules for anybody who wants to get rich. Unfortunately, most people who will watch this video will not really be able to apply the principles. We may not want to admit, but as Warren Buffett once said, investing is like any other profession-- it requires a certain level of expertise. No surprise that some people are losing a lot of money in the bear market, while others are making hundreds of thousands in profit. I just don't know how they do it. I have about $89k now to put in the market.
Understanding personal finances and investing will most likely lead to greater financial independence. By being knowledgeable about money and investing, individuals can make informed decisions about how to save, spend, and invest their money. I know someone who made over $350k in this recession influenced market, but to the best of my knowledge, it was through a financial advisor.
Yeah, financial advisors could make a lot of difference, particularly in a market such as this. Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are a lot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look. I have been using an FA since 2019, and I return at least $21k ROI, and this does not include capital gain.
'Carol Vivian Constable, a highly respected figure in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her credentials, as she possesses extensive experience and serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance in navigating the financial market.
I'm convinced that investing 50k-100k in the right company before it goes big is more important than saving for retirement. However, picking the right company is so hard. I have around 200k in a HYSA and want to invest it. What are the best opportunities now?
I believe investors should start with S&P 500/ETFs for a solid foundation, then diversify across asset classes and maintain disciplined, regular investing to minimize risks and maximize growth.
The issue is most people have the "I want to do it myself mentality" but not equipped enough for a crash, hence get burnt, no offense. In general, Financial Consultants are ideal reps for investing jobs, and at firsthand encounter, since Jan.2020, amidst covid outbreak, my portfolio has yielded massively in ROI, summing up to 7-figures as of today.
I'm intrigued by this. I've searched for financial advisors online but it's kind of hard to get in touch with one. Okay if I ask you for a recommendation?
Amber Michelle Smith has always been on the top of my list..She is regarded as a genius in her area and well knowledgeable about financial markets. I highly recommend you look her up if you want excellent collaboration.
Thanks for sharing. I curiously searched for her full name and her website popped up immediately. I looked through her credentials and did my due diligence before contacting her.
Dearest Kevin...you are correct...and wrong, at the same time. Always follow your intuition...is the most brilliant advice...in the history of creation. Your intuition comes from your experience...cannot be correct. And do you know why...it is because even young children have intuition...that is just as good as yours. Intuition...comes from the universe. It is the universe guiding you...on what is the best path for you to take. ❤
The rich are money-minded; that's a lesson I've grasped from the very beginning. My desire to build wealth has always been strong. I’ve set aside $160K since 2020, and I’m eager to invest it in the stock market to grow my financial future. I’d love to hear any recommendations you have.
I think the safest strategy is to diversify investments. But if you need proper advice, consider speaking with a financial expertise. Don't get me wrong, you can do it on your own, but financial advisors have a lot more knowledge and expertise in this area.
You are completely right. Advisors have information and paths that are not disclosed to the public.. I profited $560k in 2022 under the tutelage of my Fiduciary-counselor. Am I selling? Absolutely not.. I am going to sit back and observe how this all plays out.
I'm cautious about giving specific recommendations since this is an online forum and everyone situation is unique, but I've worked with Judith Lynn Staufer for years and highly recommend her. Look her up to see if she meets your criteria.

Wow! This happened to me. I had a trust fund. It paid for everything till i was 25 then nothing. I never finished high-school, i have a learning disability that never got adressed because i didn't think ide ever go broke.. ive never had a job that paid over 11 an hour. Now im 50 unemployed and have heart & lung issues that has kept me from working. Even if i was healthy enough to work, i hate to admit it but i sure as hell can't do anything complicated. Had i addressed my problem of having a unique learning curve ide of been so much better off. My story doesn’t have a sad ending tho because my son & daughter turned out to be extremely smart and have great careers. 👍 But ya i agree with this dude 100% I had it to easy for to long!
THIS CHANGED MY ETERNITY : YOU CAN KNOW YOU HAVE ETERNAL LIFE ! Realize you are a sinner being sorry. Sin is lying, evil thoughts, lust,etc. Therefore, do not trust in your own works to go to heaven because you realize, being a sinner, you cannot offer the perfect blood sacrifice that God requires to pay for sin. Instead, believe, meaning fully trust, that in Christ's love for you, on the cross, His one perfect blood sacrifice, when Christ bled, suffered and died, in your place, paid for your sins in full, past, present and future ! Believe that Jesus rose from the dead ! Believe Jesus is God Almighty, God the Son, alive for evermore ! And believe that the sinless blood of Jesus Christ is what cleanses you from all sin, which purifies your soul ! Then the Lord Jesus will forgive you,save you from hell and give you eternal life ! And you will be sealed with the Holy Spirit who will dwell within you forever! And thank Jesus ! Rom.3:25,5:8,9,10:9, Is.53:5,6, II Cor.5:21, Ephes.1:7,13,4:30, Heb.10:14,38,39, I John 1:7, 5:7,13,20

Your journey gives me hope! I’ve been thinking about finding a financial advisor-your success story might just push me to do it
Looks like she really knows her stuff. I also found her online page and read through her resume, educational background, qualifications and it was really impressive.
i feel i downplayed the role of FA's in the past.. now actively looking to get one.
We learn from our mistakes in life . Hard lessons but are need for life’s growth .
Better to learn from other people's mistakes....and their triumphs.
My own mother taught me the same principle, but it was when I was 10 , not when i was a college graduate. What she actually said was , " If you're looking for sympathy , you'll find it in the dictionary between Sh!t and Syphilis."
That is an old saying from the Air Force.

NO JOKE , MAN !
HAHAHAHA....Sounds like my Mother and so true!
Try your luck , just chose a hole. That AirForce sex education
Same ! My mom used to say that 😅and I started paying for my own school supplies when I was 11 years old ( babysitting money ) .... are we related lol
Taking early notes from successful individuals as to the importance of sound asset diversification and risk management It can’t be overstated. I’ve been trying to grow my portfolio of $300K for sometime now, I would greatly appreciate any other suggestions.
Well the bigger the risk, the bigger the reward and such impeccable decisions are better guided by professionals
Yes true, I have been in touch with a financial advisor. With an initial starting reserve of $80k, my advisor chooses the entry and exit commands for my portfolio, which has grown to approximately $550k.
I’ve been looking to switch to an advisor for a while now. Any help pointing me to who your advisor is?
Sophie Lynn Carrabus is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment..
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran a Google search for her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.
"You're dead to me" is my favorite quote from Kevin.
Carries weight!
I’m going into my second year in Maynooth University. I’m studying accounting & finance, and my god, I’m finding myself falling more in love with the world of business. It is so interesting. The numbers, what they mean, professionalism and so much more. There is a key life lesson behind that saying about the dead bird & it couldn’t be any more bang on.
Best of luck in your studies man 🇮🇪
@@brandonkennedy Thanks a mill 💪🏼
Enjoy the journey, work hard, learn and have fun. P.S. Always good to help others on the learning journey. You've got this :-)
AI is about to replace all accountants... no more jobs.
@@steveb6718 I disagree to a certain extent. Humans will still have a role to play in the accounting world, even if AI will be able to do most of the tedious labour; a human will still have the final say e.g. regarding closing off final accounts, if you will. Another positive about my degree is that I will graduate as a financial advisor too, which is not as ‘under threat’ from AI.
The best advice my parents gave me was on the day I graduated high school they said their obligation to me is over. You’re now on your own.
On your own after graduation.😮
@@CecileWardale yep. Forced me to survive or die. I worked my ass off after high school while my friends partied. Now they struggle and I’m doing better than I ever thought possible.
they waited until graduation day to tell you that?
My parents took similar action with my brother, sister, and me. They paid for our first year of car insurance. Before I graduated from high school I bought a car and realized the value of time, insurance, gas, and maintenance needed. This helped me develop my formula to successfully function responsibility with almost everything I do.
I'm a high value man .my advice is to let jesus be your guide because when you on your death bed what's going to have the highest value is going to true hope and that only comes from THE LORD JESUS CHRIST!!!
Well said @williammartinez3883
But what if you're a Jew, Muslim or a member of one of the other thousand religions? Those are billions of people.
@@wholeNwonThe beauty is that Jesus is open to all people. Whether Jew, Gentile and everything else in between.
@@essence2302 Really? Did he say that? To be saved, he said we all have to follow the law (of Moses). Billions would have had no idea at all what he was talking about.
Besides Kevin's honesty during interviews, he really knows how to talk confidently without mumbling. Can you tell us how you improved your public speaking abilities becuase I rarely see you mumble for words.
Very good question
Just go out and start talking to random strangers on the street. Spark up a random conversation. Greet them, compliment them, talk to them about the weather that’ll take the fear out of talking to anyone. As for having things to talk about, the more you talk to people the more you’ll learn on how to keep a conversation going
Mumbling like joe biden.
@@kesilame2590 despite PRESIDENT BIDENS SPEECH IMPEDIMENT..he has been successful. Can you say the same?
3 things that have been changing and literally transforming my life: 1st: Seek the Lord, 2nd, fear the Lord, Love the Lord my God. Everything outside those things are basically worthless.
@TLOH7 You’re definitely right and I needed to hear this. If it’s okay with you I’d like to reach out and seek advice concerning life. You seem to be prudent and I’d appreciate if you’d spare a minute to advise me.
@@SasafenViko I’m here if you need help concerning your spiritual life. God bless you!

Amen 🙏 Love this ❤
Are the MILLIONS of people being slaughtered BEGGING GOD to save them ???
I never had a trust fund. I leaned early on if I want a better life I had to grind and work my butt off to have that. Kids need to be taught that.
💯 highly motivating to get a job, keep a job and better myself knowing that I was needing to feed, clothe and shelter myself.
Having hard working parents with morals and love can be the best teacher for the young ones.
I didn't even know what a trust fund was!
But its not the way anymore jobs fire you colleges are overpriced corporations don't care about degrees. You need your own business
Own identifying never shows uniqueness, that distinction had been left behind.
Lessons learned are inside a home.😊
Kevin can do some standup and I would go to the shows. Not only is he a fabulously successful business man, but he's a seriously funny dude.
I'll go if he wears a suit on top and shorts on the bottom.
He’s pretty good on the guitar, too.
I bet he makes a mean jambalaya !
He’s arrogant and condescending
Kev must be a cancer sign cause he writes his own scripts, nd feeds the world. If you understand his word smithing. Hes the Larry David of finances.
I love the dead bird quote. Awesome from Mr. Wonderful.
My son gave me an amazing tip: The best dressed person in the room always wins. How many of these interviewers are dressed like Kevin. Kevin gave everyone a tip without saying it. Dress better than the others in the room.
What do you mean better dressed? Who is to say that tux is better than shorts or sweats? You mean dress like you just came from the office? Real rich people could care less about clothes
@@chartedtravel1776 I wore a suit, white shirt and tie into a construction meeting and the general contractor wore blue jeans and a polo shirt. We had an eight foot discrepancy(bust) on moving dirt on a huge site. I walked away with $7 million dollars for trucking 800,000 cubic yards. Each truck had an hour run to the dump site. The general told me he dressed better than anyone he was negotiated with. Try negotiating in flip-flops blue jeans and a t-shirt and see how much leverage you have. Always buy the best, eat the best and be the best.
plus look at that Cool dude in white shorts showing his cock..I mean if not dress well at least sit well, talk well.. as thousands of people are looking at the video..body language posture etc also matters.
Not if you're being asked to do technical work. They ask you challenging, job-related questions. Not if you're an attorney. A well-dressed attorney still can't put enough lipstick on a pig of a case to win. Being well-dressed may sometimes be an advantage, but I would prefer someone adequately presentable who tries 100 times to a fashionista who tries ten times.
@@EllenGreidinger I was a Grading foreman who wore blue jeans ever day and walked into the negotiating meeting in a suit and tie. My company was building a 6 mile test track for Hyundai in California City California. For the recon I wore a suit and tie and met the president of Hyundai who needed a translator to communicate. At the end of the construction on the track , he offer me a job.
Fully agree, experience is really very important 🎉

Amen to that.
Tough love, is hardest!

Kevin you are entertaining which is something people are your age never manage to accomplish and its a great value to show why people like myself enjoy watching you.
Meow your just being mean.
Some things we thank our parents later for, especially when it comes to issues of moral integrity. It's good to be spoiled with advantages, while not being spoiled rotten as is so typical these days.
So true! And it’s a great lesson. Unfortunately wealth tends to preclude this blessing by entitlement- never stressing things.
Perfect guidance from "Mr. Wonderful"!
Thumbs up 👍 Mr Wonderful
Thank goodness you brought this up! Truly, investing has changed my perspective on how one can succeed in life; working multiple jobs isn't the optimal way to attain financial freedom and unfortunately, we discover this later in life. Currently earn as much as 10 grand weekly and this has improved my financial life. Great piece!.
Wow, congratulations on your impressive investment success! Your discipline and focus on delayed gratification is truly inspiring. I'm curious, what are some of the key factors that you consider when making investment decisions? Do you have any tips for those of us who are just starting to dip our toes into the world of investing? Thanks for sharing your story!
She’s OLIVIA SULLIVAN FINANCIALS
she's a known advisor. I actually did look her up curiously and went through her credentials on her webbsite... Top-notch! I wrote her an email, hopefully she's accepting new intakes.
I'm definitely gonna check her out. Do yo have any idea if she manages family fund?
She's definitely going to help you. All you have to do is look up her full name and reach out to her
' 100% Moms! End of story! Everything is business. '
I found this very informative and helpful. However, he also had the psychological advantage to know that if something horrible happened and he couldn't make it or whatever he would have the support of his family regardless of what is said in this interview. That is huge.
Excellent advice all around, Kevin. The dead bird: I did something very similar to this with my son, and he is now doing really well in life.
DANM I LOVE KEVIN!! 💯
Wisdom takes time and failure then pivot with added time seeking success 🤔😎
Very true...nothing beats "Valid" experience!
Big ups to everyone working effortlessly trying to earn a living while building wealth. My wife and I we are both retired with over $2 million in net worth and all paid off debts. living smart and frugal with our money, made it possible for us this early, even till now we earn passively with our asset coach.
Adapt to a lifestyle, be thrifty, set a budget, save money and build more streams.
Please, I've lost so much money on my own. How can I reach out to your coach ?
Excellent choices having a great savings and more streams to earn makes life goal’s easier but our way of life needs better alternative,at the same time, people also need to be more responsible. I know for a fact that there's a lot of people that simply don't make enough, I make roughly hundred plus a year and in California, thanks to rent inflation alone eat up almost all of what I make, with dependents and other obligations included, it's easy to end up with zero. however it’s a good time to add to existing asset holdings as follow -on opportunities

1st x viewer new subscriber. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
My mother did the same thing. Struggle,but made it happen. Never asked for anything else
MY Dad gave me the speech at age 17 telling me I could have any car I wanted and go to any college I wanted the only thing is I had to pay for it myself. And that included the insurance. The best thing he could have said to me.
The dead bird under the nest never learned to fly. Hit different 🔥
I couldn’t imagine my parents supporting me through college. But to these elite kids, it was a horrible shock. So funny.
Best message from this is to keep on going, be persistent and don’t give your kids everything. The unfortunate part of this is not acknowledging that Kevin and many other ppl regardless of background have a safety net and completely different resources. So although this video has gems it doesn’t address how to overcome adversity even when odds are stacked against you.
I was raised with no free anything but also told big success was for other people (while also taught I was special and could be anything I wanted to be.) My whole life I made every dollar with my hands but always discouraged, even unsupported, if I took selfish risk on things like investments and such. I was a fool for buying that. I have a lot of talent but don't know what I will do when I cannot create a living from my hands and skills.
Ditto with my upbringing. But thankfully i saw through my dad's BS and took serious interest in trading. My dad was like making too much money is for bad people - good, honest people just make enough to lead a decent life. This is a self defeating, self limiting mindset that must never be put into kids. Most parents are secretly afraid the kid might surpass them
@@doncorleone3901 a mistake not learning to create anything with your hands, not even confident about your gifted hands, first n secondly to survive! Open your eyes now! Moments are precious!
Wow. I did something similar with my 3 girls. I told them they could live for free at home for one year after college. Two of the three were financially independent once they graduated from college. The third one lived at home for 3 months following college. I basically haven’t provided for them since college. All three have jobs and own homes.
Kevin, you have a developed ability to recognize potential in a person. The question is, a person who has good ideas - but there is also something that blocked the implementation of ideas, how does this person get the confidence to implement ideas, is it even possible? A person's situation has been good for a long time and there has been no pressure to change or develop.
Wish I had heard this before my kid turned 30 and still living at home.
What a great American. What a great guy. Teach our youth, sir, teach our youth.
He is not an American. He's a Canadian
@@jmc4733 Oh. shoot. Thanks. Well he should be an American because we could use more like him...don't you think?
When it comes to the world of investing, most people don't know where to start. Fortunately, great investors of the past and present can provide us with guidance.
I remember seeing a video by Kevin making fun of San Francisco yet his kids live there.
Totally AGREED! Thank you for this counsel.
Thank you Mr Wonderful.
The best thing my parents ever did to teach me about money. I graduated high school in the middle of May, 1985, June 1st, rent was due. After some bitchen on my part, checking rent prices in the area, I came to the conclusion, a couple hundred dollars a month wasn't so bad.
Fantastic advice. Sharing with my son.
What Kevin talks is reality. The world will kick the shit out of you if you just take your degrees and certificates to showcase yourself but if you know something what other 8 billion people don’t know then the world will look for you, give you opportunities, money and power to rule their organizations, country or institutions. Don’t be the herd
Good stuff. Help your kids. Don"t hinder them.
Great Video. Working on My Own Concepts for The Long Term. And To Show The World Any One CAN Do IT
Thanks for sharing. Watching now! ;-)
Enjoyed this, great job!
You were lucky. I paid for my own college. I started working day one.
so good!! Thank you for sharing
I can say Kevin I being mentor by two of the best Produce guys I would say in Canada and they had great knowledge as they were king but very humble people never cocky just down to earth people I learn a ton in that field plus I had great mentors in Loblaws grocery department as both had years of experience it's a eye opener when your taught by the best Experience is king
1981 was my 8th grade year and my parents were going through a divorce and selling the farm. I decided I was going to have a manufacturing business. Between the summer of 81 and 83 I got a tick bite. Fast forward to 2013 after decades of suffering mysterious health problems I was diagnosed with chronic Lyme disease. Wasn’t able to ever start that manufacturing business. I’m 58 now.
That was a great lesson beautiful motivator Kevin
the best advice from MY mom.......nope, I got nothin".... She died in 2010 and her last words weren't words at all, she died screaming....I've always wondered about that.
...... OK
Doesn't have to be parents or blood to have impact on your life
My dad died quietly in his sleep. But the people on the bus he was driving...they died screaming.
Knowledge and action support growth.
Yes, I am!
So many great cinematographers other than the one that shot the last interview. Shutter angle!
dead bird never learns to fly- love it!
These are very valuable rules for anybody who wants to get rich. Unfortunately, most people who will watch this video will not really be able to apply the principles. We may not want to admit, but as Warren Buffett once said, investing is like any other profession-- it requires a certain level of expertise. No surprise that some people are losing a lot of money in the bear market, while others are making hundreds of thousands in profit. I just don't know how they do it. I have about $89k now to put in the market.
Understanding personal finances and investing will most likely lead to greater financial independence. By being knowledgeable about money and investing, individuals can make informed decisions about how to save, spend, and invest their money. I know someone who made over $350k in this recession influenced market, but to the best of my knowledge, it was through a financial advisor.
Yeah, financial advisors could make a lot of difference, particularly in a market such as this. Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are a lot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look. I have been using an FA since 2019, and I return at least $21k ROI, and this does not include capital gain.
Would you mind telling me how to contact this specific coach using their service? You seem to have the solution, as opposed to the rest of us.
'Carol Vivian Constable, a highly respected figure in her field. I suggest delving deeper into her credentials, as she possesses extensive experience and serves as a valuable resource for individuals seeking guidance in navigating the financial market.
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran an online search on her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.
Great advice Kevin, hockey videos I love it!
I'm convinced that investing 50k-100k in the right company before it goes big is more important than saving for retirement. However, picking the right company is so hard. I have around 200k in a HYSA and want to invest it. What are the best opportunities now?
I believe investors should start with S&P 500/ETFs for a solid foundation, then diversify across asset classes and maintain disciplined, regular investing to minimize risks and maximize growth.
The issue is most people have the "I want to do it myself mentality" but not equipped enough for a crash, hence get burnt, no offense. In general, Financial Consultants are ideal reps for investing jobs, and at firsthand encounter, since Jan.2020, amidst covid outbreak, my portfolio has yielded massively in ROI, summing up to 7-figures as of today.
I'm intrigued by this. I've searched for financial advisors online but it's kind of hard to get in touch with one. Okay if I ask you for a recommendation?
Amber Michelle Smith has always been on the top of my list..She is regarded as a genius in her area and well knowledgeable about financial markets. I highly recommend you look her up if you want excellent collaboration.
Thanks for sharing. I curiously searched for her full name and her website popped up immediately. I looked through her credentials and did my due diligence before contacting her.
Thank you Kevin
Kevin is brilliant thinking Men , that why he is MR wonderful
Very interesting. Thanks for uploading this.

Three tips from our side: study more, be humble, be generous
Tip #4 learn how to operate a boat. Maybe 1st aid course as well.
Dearest Kevin...you are correct...and wrong, at the same time.
Always follow your intuition...is the most brilliant advice...in the history of creation.
Your intuition comes from your experience...cannot be correct. And do you know why...it is because even young children have intuition...that is just as good as yours.
Intuition...comes from the universe. It is the universe guiding you...on what is the best path for you to take. ❤
Sounds like you did things the right way.
The rich are money-minded; that's a lesson I've grasped from the very beginning. My desire to build wealth has always been strong. I’ve set aside $160K since 2020, and I’m eager to invest it in the stock market to grow my financial future. I’d love to hear any recommendations you have.
I think the safest strategy is to diversify investments. But if you need proper advice, consider speaking with a financial expertise. Don't get me wrong, you can do it on your own, but financial advisors have a lot more knowledge and expertise in this area.
You are completely right. Advisors have information and paths that are not disclosed to the public.. I profited $560k in 2022 under the tutelage of my Fiduciary-counselor. Am I selling? Absolutely not.. I am going to sit back and observe how this all plays out.
That's impressive! I could really use the expertise of this manager for my dwindling portfolio. Who’s the professional guiding you?
I'm cautious about giving specific recommendations since this is an online forum and everyone situation is unique, but I've worked with Judith Lynn Staufer for years and highly recommend her. Look her up to see if she meets your criteria.
Thanks for sharing. I curiously searched for her full name and her website popped up immediately. I looked through her credentials and did my due diligence before contacting her.
This was good talk.
Kevin, thank you.
Thank you!
Thanks Kevin 😊 I love this!!
Ty sir for the advice
Wow! This happened to me. I had a trust fund. It paid for everything till i was 25 then nothing. I never finished high-school, i have a learning disability that never got adressed because i didn't think ide ever go broke.. ive never had a job that paid over 11 an hour. Now im 50 unemployed and have heart & lung issues that has kept me from working. Even if i was healthy enough to work, i hate to admit it but i sure as hell can't do anything complicated. Had i addressed my problem of having a unique learning curve ide of been so much better off. My story doesn’t have a sad ending tho because my son & daughter turned out to be extremely smart and have great careers. 👍 But ya i agree with this dude 100%
I had it to easy for to long!
That's where the term "spoiled" comes from. Don't spoil your children, love them but only support and guide them enough to become strong adults.
LOVE IT!!
THIS CHANGED MY ETERNITY : YOU CAN KNOW YOU HAVE ETERNAL LIFE ! Realize you are a sinner being sorry. Sin is lying, evil thoughts, lust,etc. Therefore, do not trust in your own works to go to heaven because you realize, being a sinner, you cannot offer the perfect blood sacrifice that God requires to pay for sin. Instead, believe, meaning fully trust, that in Christ's love for you, on the cross, His one perfect blood sacrifice, when Christ bled, suffered and died, in your place, paid for your sins in full, past, present and future ! Believe that Jesus rose from the dead ! Believe Jesus is God Almighty, God the Son, alive for evermore ! And believe that the sinless blood of Jesus Christ is what cleanses you from all sin, which purifies your soul ! Then the Lord Jesus will forgive you,save you from hell and give you eternal life ! And you will be sealed with the Holy Spirit who will dwell within you forever! And thank Jesus ! Rom.3:25,5:8,9,10:9, Is.53:5,6, II Cor.5:21, Ephes.1:7,13,4:30, Heb.10:14,38,39, I John 1:7, 5:7,13,20
My top three tips would have to be study hi, take the test hi, get hi grades. I'm the best Monito! Ya heard?
