    Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. (1 Corinthians 13:4-7 NIV)

  • @judeblake2534

    My advice to my younger self would be to listen to my intuition and follow what truly interests you. I would also tell myself to never compromise in choosing the qualities you seek in a partner.

    • @jm7804
      @jm7804 Місяць тому +5

      Use that intuition on people you're dating for sure. I could've saved myself a lot of grief along the way. The famous Maya Angelou quote, "When someone shows you who they are, believe them the first time," applies.

    At 78 I'm just as crazy as I ever was , still building and racing drag cars , I can still get up and down from the floor , still fab and weld steel , build engines, transmissions and differentials , I farm out body and paint . My wife and I will celebrate 60 years this Dec. I never used alcohol much or drugs at all , guess I was always high on life . I guess I'm a 26 year old locked in a 78 year old body. All in all been a heck of a ride so far .

    I'm in my 60s I'm watching this video and seeing these elderly people speak it was truly sad for me not one of those people ever spoke of their health. I mean to tell you sitting there listening to these elderly people not one of them said hey if I would have took better care of myself maybe my life would have been different period without your health you're no good to yourself and I guarantee you one thing 75% of those people are on prescription drugs truly sad

  • @janeth-h9t
    @janeth-h9t 12 годин тому +156

    Very nice video covering the basics. I am sharing this not to brag but to show what’s possible. I’m retired and I have 2 separate portfolios. One is a long term growth dividend portfolio of stocks where i sell covered calls strategically and my 2nd portfolio is the Crypto trading strategy where its all about income. I am on pace to make $120K in realized options profits and around $869K in crypto profit... What is great is that my long-term portfolio is still up significantly as well. As such, it’s possible to generate excellent income but still have a total return perspective. ...Amidst this, the insights of a knowledgeable guide like that of Expert ‘’Matthew D Heck’’ can be crucial. His expertise in navigating the nuances of trading has been the key for Me understanding and making the most of these emerging financial trends.

    Oh, wisdom speaks from voices aged,
    Life’s truths refined, their hearts engaged.
    They whisper softly, "Walk life’s art,
    But let the wild soothe your heart."
    For youth may chase what time will fade,
    Yet nature’s balm forever stays.
    So heed their call, embrace the earth,
    Where timeless joy renews your worth.

    While I am in my 50s, I have come to terms saving less for my retirement. Let go of the golden dream retirement. Chances are, I probably get upset how different between dream and reality. Now I still got the health, good mobility and stamina, I decide to bring my family for long haul trips to see the world and build the good memory. Thing is you never know what will happen in the next five years. Your body and mindset on traveling may not be the same when you reach 60s and 70s, or even times up.

    I'm 55 and would be happy to leave this world today. There's nothing here for me, except walks in nature with my dog. I have friends who would take care of my dog, and that's all that matters. Thank God for alcohol, it helps a lot with the monotony. I've traveled all over the world, had amazing and unique experiences, and I'm bored now. I find life tedious and people annoying. I used to put myself out there and got tired of it. So I don't bother anymore because I can't find a good reason to. 😊

Don't let 80 year old's tell you how to live you social paradigm, it's yours to live, they had theirs you have yours.

    They were a great generation but they didn't have nearly the same amount of financial pressures that we have now.

    People aren't chasing money. They're chasing the means to survive. You know - pay the bills, keep a roof over their head, put food on the table. There's a difference. And just doing what you love isn't realistic either. That's why so many college grads are stacking supermarket shelves. Doing what they love didn't pay the bills or get them a job.
