I came to the realization some time ago that family, especially extended family, have to pass the "hang" test. If they are not someone I would choose to hang out with if the were not related, then I'm not worried about winning their approval. I don't disown them, I wish them well and stop caring if the feeling is mutual.
Absolutely correct. I have zero friends. I realized a long time ago that absolutely no one in my life was reciprocating what I was investing, not one. Not in my friendships, and DEFINITELY NOT with women. Once I pulled back, they all disappeared. I get lonely, I'd love to have a woman in my life, but being authentic to who I am and alone sits much better with me than vying for the approval of others. Ken, this video contains the most truth that has ever been published on your channel. People cannot appreciate it because they're not awake to the truth of life yet. I'm 34, male, and I've been single for over a decade, for those that are curious. I will likely never date again and will likely never get married.

(looks at the kids) “All right little Bobby, this relationship is transactional and I no longer feel I am getting anything out of this and feel we must part ways”
I think Alex is absolutely right -- if your goals in life align with his. If you desire things like a close and happy family, this ain't gonna get it done.
I agree kind of that all things are transactional but I stick to the intent behind it. Giving someone nurturing cuddles is a transaction in esseence but there is good intent and relations/connection building. If it's extreme like I'm such a stud and will take you to a fancy place in expectation of getting laid, then that's not the best transaction unless both parties agree I suppose. Again, i like to think of what my intentions and expectations are in transactions/connections.
I agree with you, every relation is transactional but sometimes the value we exchange is not material but emotional, e.g. being around someone puts us in a better mood
True my family hated me dropping out of school getting tattoos and playing drums till one day I got signed semi famous but no money they came around to my wonderful decision I don't regret I love my broke life
What a way to burn bridges. Kind of a sad way to go through life. I understand removing negative people but I don’t think he’s fully developed his argument.
I guess its just simply I don't agree with his set of goals, which are the motivations for his relationships. Everything is about driving growth in his net worth. Literally the basis in his marriage is that he could make more money with her as his wife.
It's true that all relationships are transactional.
Lots of people don't seem to realize that.

The truth hurts some people. Appreciate your honesty and transparency, Alex

I was single for 13yrs before I found my husband. The right one is worth waiting for. :)
Hormozi IS married btw. For almost a decade
@@markkorchnoy4437 the only reason he's married is because of his money. That's all women want.

Great life advices! 💯

I think the larger question is "what is the correct vetting process for letting people into your life"

Awesome video

Love this!
Very Milton Friedman/Chicago-school-of-economics like…

Agree.
You just haven't been truly burned enough.
@@kenjifugimoto Yep, exactly. Most women have made it clear they don't want to be a wife or a mother. So, why bother investing time or money in them?
@@kenjifugimoto Yep, I'm a sole owner operator of my business. Wouldn't have it any other way.
This is why you live the way that you do and he thrives the way that he does.

ehh....
In America, yes. But in Denmark or Vietnam or etc, this is wrong.
Why do they have this guy on the show 😂 his advice is so bad
✝️🙏
“Relationships are transactional” is a recipe for disaster
You mean accepting the truth of life?
It is almost parallel to a hermetic law you monkey 😂
Life IS transactional.
There’s always an energy of transference.
Material or not.
No it's the truth... most people aren't willing to see it.
@@rnt45t1people hate the truth 😂
Okay, materialist
Beta boy Ken starting to get into red pill contact? Interesting!
