Florida man shows his sneaky intelligence by telling his end game and steps on how he has dominated. Rudy has a place on the mount Rushmore of Magic personalities. Also mush respect to you Rudy.
Rudy's end game is simple, twenty years from now we'll get a news article headlining "Famous OnlyFans model finds unknown fortune in TCG stock of her late husband. I never knew what he was doing in the garage, she says, explaining she thought to find a now banned automobile there."
he could've did a 5 minute video about that.. florida news 20 million dollars in cards have been caught in a fire started by a man sitting naked in a robe smoking a cigar
Some of the best life advice When going into a business or a romantic relationship. .. You have to go in head first like your not afraid to fail . And give it everything, when you put in a real effort and truly give your all. Even if it doesn't work out, you never have to worry about " what ifs" , avoiding any rumination. It either did or didn't but it wasn't because there was anything more you could have done . This brings acceptance and finalization. Freeing up the mind to think and move forward open to process previous or future information effectively. Thanks for reminding me about this . I really enjoy seeing people do things the right way and watch things work out how they should . You might call or luck, but I find that the harder I work, it seems I get more and more " Lucky "
@12:00 This is some real truth right here. So many successful business people will not FESS UP when and where luck played a hand in their journey. It does. You get lucky. Events happen and they change your course or give you opportunities you never had before. Kudos, Rudy, for honoring the lucky moments in life and congrats to you for being able to seize that luck!
All these years watching Rudy. I still think he sends us coded messages in the booster boxes behind him. Spent 30 mins trying to put all the booster box names together 😂😂
he said: Doctor Cox is smart! 😮 37:53 "I felt a great disturbance in the Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened." - Obi Wan
It’s actually a concealed message providing his Wall Street buddies insider trading info so he takes a cut, while keeping his business in net positive. Desperate times call for desperate measures
I think the question usually revolves around "How does Rudy cash out on all his positions". The answer that he never has to, might be discombobulating to people.
Omg! Your comments on the general public not understanding how a business works behind the scene is 100 percent accurate. There are so many uneducated individuals out there. Great video, Rudy!
Not many of the MTG channels from the early Rudy days still upload content. And here's Rudy with a multi-generational plan for cardboard world domination🤯
These videos make me reflect on my life. Thank you, Rudy. Im 26 and came from nothing. Worked hard to save up to afford to go to college. Now I see the times changing around me, and I am nostalgic for those times you talk about. I hope I get to meet you one day, Rudy. Thanks, Austin
I paused the video at 47:10 in an attempt to guess what Rudy's advice was going to be. I said "Stop shitting on your competition" Edit : I was close - it was "Don't build your business by attacking other businesses"
Just to let you know I don't play Magic, I played D&D, but I watch you because you're entertaining and you give a few good words of advice and you make me laugh. No Disrespecting you being entertained and that's just the way I observe you.
Been a subscriber since around 1,000 and I’ve wanted an answer to this question since then. And honestly, it’s genius. You’ve built a great system here Rudy and it’ll hopefully mean the content will keep coming for years to come. Here’s to 696,696 subscribers!
A. He didn't start a patreon in the first 6-12 months because not enough people gave a shit to pay him money or he WOULD have B. Of course he adds value, comedy value, but some people take it as financial advice. The guy took concepts from the financial world and brought them into an unregulated space and cashed in big. Good on him.
Hi. I remember Rudy from 2018/2019. I just lost my job and I had spent like 80£ on a box of war of the spark (i could afford it). I've never played MTG and nevre bought cards. I literally just got caught up in watching Alpha Investments and I bought myself a box. Then everyday, I'd smoke a J and go in te garden and ope na few packs. I still have those cards. It was a great little time for me. Im doing better now. I have a job etc.
In 5, 10 years show this video to your boy, if for no other reason than to let him know you have been thinking about his future for a while (we both know you have been doing that since before he was born, but the youngens do not always see that). I hope he decides to make it a family business.
20:38 its because of the collector boosters and now that everything is special. You hit a foil shockland today its nothing special especially if you have to spend 200+ on the box to get said cards. Back then you spend $90 on a box and get $10 cards that are played and loved by everyone the challenge to get all 10 was so special. But timmy wants to just pull them all with one box and wizards wants to put out more product so you can pay more to get more while killing the poor mans fun in the challenge and getting something exspensive from a box that may be cheaper. EDIT: sorry for my poor grammer and wording. :/
...did all the educated players with real jobs ..and true balanced lives disappear ..

LOL
OK I have not watched yet but will try to guess. Rudy is independently wealthy and wants to enjoy that while doing something he likes, he knows the cards he collects will hold value, something he can either fall back on or pass on to his kids/grand kids. He gets to crack packs all the time, and hosts a venue which would see traffic due to his work. End game... Keep collecting, be comfortable , and I guess towards the end its custom chess boards. High end lasered holo pieces of valuable crystal, set to gemstone boards custom made for the worlds moneyed folk... Lets watch...
Rudy, I have watched your videos for YEARS now. Back from khans era when everyone first started the hate. I subscribed to your patreon for a long time to support the channel but left because I couldn't get product (thx australia) You have provided so much information and help causing me to improve my financial position in ways I never initially thought possible. This has been such a wonderful 8 years and hoping to continue enjoying your content as time marches forward. The depth of knowledge and wisdom you have shared is exceptional and a true inspiration.
19:00 Can I just say, Rudy seems like a good and supportive father. Really appears that he wants his son to make his own choices and be his own person. Letting your children decide their own future is profound. Less common than you might think.
Also I think the scarcity of the avaliable patrion slots helped keep constant interest. Scarcity sells. 😉👍 I remeber when you first introduced the cap, and I think that was the most buzz around your patrion there's ever been (from an outside perspective).
As I watch this series of Q&A develop I can’t shake the feeling that a magnum opus may be materializing before our eyes. Love the content Rudy. Most of society would benefit in some way from routine viewing and consideration of your circumstances and retellings. Hope it is truly more years of content to come.
Rudy just throwing this out there as a fan and lover of magic. If your son doesn’t wanna take over the business. As much as I love my dad and my last name , I’m willing to become your son.
Fascinating. Not just as Mr Spock would put it, but there is some old background stuff (not just the Weatherlight boxes) that were mildly new to me. So in short, the end game is to keep it going and going and going and ....
My fear with cardboard collecting as an investment is the volatility and those who use it as their primary or only investing. I don't have an issue with it but I think it should be alongside a healthy portfolio of other investing assets rather than the only or primary investment. I don't look at my card collection as an investment but I also don't buy into the game as an investment either.
Hey Rudy, do you ever think keeping all of this sealed *paper* product in a state like Florida that’s so susceptible to hurricanes and flooding is a bad idea? I know you’re in the northern part of the state so it’s less likely but you’re still far from immune to major weather events. With the amount of resources and inventory you have, plus a background in property management, I’m sure you have the insurance coverage for it all figured out. But even if insurance does reimburse you for a fair amount, that doesn’t bring back the product that would be lost if such an event were to happen. It’s just gone with zero chance of recovery. Do you ever feel like with the amount of vintage product you have that there is a responsibility on your shoulders to keep that stuff in a safer environment than Florida? Not just for your own financial benefit, but for the benefit of vintage Magic as a whole. I can’t recall you ever bringing this up before so it would be nice to hear what you have to say.
the really rare vintage stuff like the sets and whatnot are sitting in bank vaults for that very reason. As for the rest, that is what insurance is for, and it just makes the rest of the collection more valuable if there is less of it.
Had the same mindset of collect everything coming out with MTG. A few boxes, maybe a case of each set i really liked. Then hasbro turned up the product line/releases to 500% and powercreep'd every card needing a paragraph to read before play and, to me, the game has outlived it's usefulness of a once good game. Sold out of my stuff a couple years ago. Paid off everything and set for retirement. Now I cube revised, ice age, and mirage for nostalgia purposes with friends and that is that.
Shockland challenge still are fun to watch! A 2nd gen of family business, 40 years next year, myself. My older kids I try to get into other paths so they can experience life and get a work ethic. Worked for the oldest, not so much for the second but it is what it is, ya know. Good luck with your son man. Great video, thanks! Looking forward to the next shirt
Hey Rudy! This is the Truth. You did not change. I have been attached to Magic for around 25 years consistently. The fact is that current recent magic sets have become less and less valuable. If your products are being purchased less , the value of your investments are less, and the attraction by your fans are less ......it's nothing personal ...... many stores in Southern California have closed down ..... I have sold most of my cards .... ..but I still enjoy the games ..... I have purchased much less and less Magic cards .... ...my resources are diverted in other directions ......
I am 99.5% certain your story was fascinating. With all your other interests and income I would just end game by locking the warehouse and focus on those other interests. Then change my name to Miss Haversham
average life cycle of 8-9 months for a viewer? flying tacos i've been watching your cardboard spinning tacos since 2017 and i still dont play or collect magic
Looking back in my e-mail, my first order from you was in December 2016. I've enjoyed the ride and listening to your wisdom. I'm looking forward to years more! Thanks, Rudy!
The comments are what I thought .. 50% taking advice from a multimillionaire to advance their lives… 50% hating because they do nothing and are jealous at Rudy’s success…
I listen to every word you say, I listen more than anything. I love my rudy. I never want you to leave. Your videos are never boring, I always watch until the end, I always learn, and believe it or not I think like you, and I'm not you. I don't want to be you. I do love everything you do, and the knowledge experience and wisdom you share, and much more.
You know, one time I was buying some Star Trek collector cards and and the album holders to put them in and the guy that does Dale's Cards and Comics ,said he's going to open those to my friend and he just looked at him he'll open every one of them and I sure enough did. Plus all of my Olivia cards are opened and in their containers also. P.S. yes I bought the consumer thing Full Line and Sinker I'm an extreme collector not a hoarder.
Interesting... so Rudy is saying he started sealed product hoarding not because he thought the sealed products would appreciate in value, but as a way to keep patreon running? Am I hearing that right? So all of the time he told people that sealed prices go up and stuff was bullshit? lol
I remember really really back in the first videos, you mentioned the reason you did youtube was as a recommendation from your doctor to speak and open up with more people (?). It was so long ago that I forgot what you said exactly, but you seemed to not care how the youtube did, and was afraid no one would watch you. But it was a self reflection exercise for you. Is it all my imagination? Do any of the old folks here remember it? Rudy, please clarify.
i found this channel by accident, i stop playing after the Original Kamigawa set (was my favorite btw). had a mono black rat deck with discrad and terrors ? nothing special and before that a Sliver deck. anyway i think at 19 or 20 i remembered MTG again and searched for what elese ? Black Lotus and found this channel i dont see any colections in the video for the rare we asked for in the previous video 😮💨😮💨😮💨
Here I was about to light up a fatty with Elon musk while craken packs for my patron Bucky, a homeless man who doesn’t realize we’re building him a house on a jet during my podcast about psychedelics… there’s a shake test in there somewhere. XD
Outside of government appointments anyone who has a problem with someone taking care of their children isn't being realistic about how human relationships work.
Rudy i dont think you underestimated how smart WotC is, you underestimated how little WotC gives a shit about anything which isnt within the realm of "Corporate Social Responsibility" (aka Bullshitting from the PR department). If you would have been damaging to the WotC/Hasbro feel good brand they would have cut you off.
I just want to say I ❤ you Mr Rudy Taco Man!! No forreal though, you are very inspirational to me Mr. Rudy! You inspire me in my own business, and just in some weird way, you offer comfort in the craziness of entrepreneurship! You just have wise words of wisdom if you REALLY listen that can be applied in all aspects of life! Just want to say thank you for all you do that is intentional or unintentionally! I am very happy for you and your success Rudy! Keep it up man! The real ones see you out here!❤🎉😊
Love you Rudy. Love your work. Love your videos. Love your entertainment. Love your advice/perspectives. Long time subscriber who can’t be a patron because I’m in the wrong country.
i genuinely hope you can reach a point where you become a majority owner of hasbro shares and change the way they run the company and make magic fun again.
@@theboringchannel2027 i would disagree. Things change as the shares of hasbro have already halved from teir highs and rudys position is only growing. Im hoping down the road maybe him and a group of friends could hold a position strong enough to challenge the leadership of the company and im hoping this happens sooner than later. The collector booster and variants madness and unbearable reprint speed needs to end.

it never is as sexy as anyone thinks. Im glad youre still doing it rudy, keep up the great work, may the floppy taco be our guide.
I've watched you since the beginning. Always entertaining.
Rudy's Endgame is simple. Own every MTG card so he can finally learn how to play.
A. He didn't start a patreon in the first 6-12 months because not enough people gave a shit to pay him money or he WOULD have
B. Of course he adds value, comedy value, but some people take it as financial advice.
The guy took concepts from the financial world and brought them into an unregulated space and cashed in big. Good on him.

Hey Rudy!
This is the Truth.
You did not change.
I have been attached to Magic for around 25 years consistently.
The fact is that current recent magic sets have become less and less valuable.
If your products are being purchased less , the value of your investments are less, and the attraction by your fans are less ......it's nothing personal ...... many stores in Southern California have closed down ..... I have sold most of my cards ....
..but I still enjoy the games ..... I have purchased much less and less Magic cards ....
...my resources are diverted in other directions ......
I see youre building assets when it comes to punctuation

I miss when he did the card shop life mini series. And then tossed boxes at Edwin.
You know, one time I was buying some Star Trek collector cards and and the album holders to put them in and the guy that does Dale's Cards and Comics ,said he's going to open those to my friend and he just looked at him he'll open every one of them and I sure enough did. Plus all of my Olivia cards are opened and in their containers also. P.S. yes I bought the consumer thing Full Line and Sinker I'm an extreme collector not a hoarder.

I love the end of a good Rudy video we're he discloses information on his sealed product like it's a commercial for some high risk medication 😂
Interesting... so Rudy is saying he started sealed product hoarding not because he thought the sealed products would appreciate in value, but as a way to keep patreon running? Am I hearing that right?
So all of the time he told people that sealed prices go up and stuff was bullshit? lol

Shock land challange era was such a bliss!
And here I thought Alpha Investments's end game was to make enough money to become majority share holder of Yum Brands(owner's of Taco Bell).
Tremendous video. 10/10. Would watch again.
This is a good listen, re-subbed just because of this.
I remember really really back in the first videos, you mentioned the reason you did youtube was as a recommendation from your doctor to speak and open up with more people (?).
It was so long ago that I forgot what you said exactly, but you seemed to not care how the youtube did, and was afraid no one would watch you. But it was a self reflection exercise for you.
Is it all my imagination? Do any of the old folks here remember it?
Rudy, please clarify.
i found this channel by accident, i stop playing after the Original Kamigawa set (was my favorite btw). had a mono black rat deck with discrad and terrors ? nothing special and before that a Sliver deck. anyway i think at 19 or 20 i remembered MTG again and searched for what elese ? Black Lotus and found this channel
i dont see any colections in the video for the rare we asked for in the previous video 😮💨😮💨😮💨
Yea I noticed too I don't see any dam thought we will get something since we liked those questions
F*uck Rudy! Your haircut is on point! LET'S GO!¡
Rate hike pauses, Rudy haircut, we're going to the moon!! 🚀📈
Rudy only one question you didn't answer in this video "End Game" is what happens if you unexpectedly pass away. What happens then?
He's probably left some instructions for his Mrs to ignore.
Rudy has a lot of benefit from his family too. A strong foundation makes anything possible
There goes my dream of creating the Alpha Rogan Beast College collectors UA-cam channel
Here I was about to light up a fatty with Elon musk while craken packs for my patron Bucky, a homeless man who doesn’t realize we’re building him a house on a jet during my podcast about psychedelics… there’s a shake test in there somewhere. XD
The shockland challenge, was the GOAT
Family name is such a friendly euphemism for nepotism
Most generations end up failing. When you get raised in wealth you take it for granted.
Outside of government appointments anyone who has a problem with someone taking care of their children isn't being realistic about how human relationships work.
@@stokedwallet5336 Yeah except half the time the family member isn't qualified for the job lol
The Star Wars and Star Trek CCG’s by Decipher are a great example of that. Great mechanics, cards and popular, but they couldn’t keep it going.
Been here since 2016, it's been a fucking wild ride and I'm not about to stop watching.
We ABSOLUTLY want long form video,this is pure GOLD,Thank you for teaching us Rudy
Rudy i dont think you underestimated how smart WotC is, you underestimated how little WotC gives a shit about anything which isnt within the realm of "Corporate Social Responsibility" (aka Bullshitting from the PR department). If you would have been damaging to the WotC/Hasbro feel good brand they would have cut you off.
I just want to say I ❤ you Mr Rudy Taco Man!! No forreal though, you are very inspirational to me Mr. Rudy! You inspire me in my own business, and just in some weird way, you offer comfort in the craziness of entrepreneurship! You just have wise words of wisdom if you REALLY listen that can be applied in all aspects of life! Just want to say thank you for all you do that is intentional or unintentionally! I am very happy for you and your success Rudy! Keep it up man! The real ones see you out here!❤🎉😊
just got to the solid business advice! Great stuff Creepy Rudy.
Great video and inspirational awnsers
Your undervalued in the tube space
Buying up all the power you could find using the money you make from ads served to subscribers, is GENIUS.
Love you Rudy. Love your work. Love your videos. Love your entertainment. Love your advice/perspectives. Long time subscriber who can’t be a patron because I’m in the wrong country.
As someone who owns and is trying to make it in the world “time is the most valuable thing hit hard
i genuinely hope you can reach a point where you become a majority owner of hasbro shares and change the way they run the company and make magic fun again.
@@theboringchannel2027 i would disagree. Things change as the shares of hasbro have already halved from teir highs and rudys position is only growing. Im hoping down the road maybe him and a group of friends could hold a position strong enough to challenge the leadership of the company and im hoping this happens sooner than later. The collector booster and variants madness and unbearable reprint speed needs to end.
Thank you I appreciate your down to earth demeanor
