R.i.p Kevin 😢 with what you've accomplished since he passed he would would be proud of you
You know what, I was one of the people commenting about you being a rich kid and after watching this I’m sorry i thought that. This video is a perfect explanation on how not to judge someone based solely on who they were born to, good luck Ben I wish you every success and your parents clearly brought you up right 👍
Thanks so much for taking the time to comment this. Means a lot reading it 👍
Im not being funny cos he's a nice bloke and obviously works very hard but he clearly stated that his dad left him a multi million pound business and he sold it. Yes it had dept but he will still have got a huge lump of cash for selling it to investors. I was very impressed by his story though and he has done well. What I get from this story and all the other stories he has told is what a true gent/legend his dad was! I feel his pain losing a man so influential in his life at a young age.
@@samdieselpowerand you can do it all with fuck all money too! Put down the Netflix and Ben and Jerrie’s 😂Get Busy!!!
@@simong7735 Lol I went to private school my whole life and live in a 700k house that my nan left to me in her will, which has a 2acres of field and and half ana acre of woodland, so I was seriously thinking of digging my own lake myself yeah, but I don't know if I have time with my surveying businesses to be honest.
Fellow carp angler, fellow petrolhead, fellow son of a much missed Dad.
The rest is irrelevant to me, fuck the trolls
Being a father myself to 4 kids, your a credit to your Dad. Both your parents cleary installed hard work and graft in you. Please ignore the trolls.
You could of easily walked away and not worked another day in your life but chose to work hard to continue to achieve. Full credit to you Ben. Keep going, keep pushing those boundaries mate.
Great sentiment, but it’s Instilled not installed lol
Well done Sir. Your Dad would be very proud indeed.
Ben, you sir are a legend. I've had the pleasure of spending a lot of time with you, and to anyone reading this, it truly goes to show: don't judge a book by its cover. He may be ginger, and he may smell of fish, but take it from me-this man is a hard worker. No amount of "daddy's money" comments will change my opinion that he's going places. He could have easily spent money on strippers and drugs, but instead, he's inspiring us all to make the best of our situation and keep our chins held high.
I cant wait to see where you'll be a few years from now.... Don't forget.. you owe me a spin in that Hurracan!
Wish you were at gumball yesterday bro! Missed you. Thanks for the kind comment 🫶
Fair play to this guy, I firstly discovered his lake building videos and didn't know about his other ventures until recently. His honesty is refreshing, good luck to him!!
As someone who knew your dad, it was a massive shock to hear he passed. He would be massively proud of you bud.
Well done, Ben. You’re always working hard to get where you’ve got and yet sitting having food with you, et cetera. You are one of the most kindest people I know. The road to success is clearly working hard and being a decent human being
Your Dad would be incredibly proud of what you have achieved, chasing your dreams and following in his footsteps building amazing businesses. Keep up the amazing work 👏
Well done, Ben, for persevering ignore the haters and keep building your legacy!
I think your old man is smiling down on you mate. You're a top lad with a smart head on your shoulders, and this video was a brilliant explanation of who you are.
You're gonna make waves in the world and may they be big ones.
Take no notice of any haters you are obviously a very hard-working person it doesn't matter whether you come from money or not you also seem very genuine and I am a very sceptical person, so keep doing what you're doing ignore the internet trolls and just enjoy your life
I only know you from your fishing lake videos, I never realised how much you are into cars, I didn't know how a podcast could be such a popular thing - with amazing revenue, I didn't know that you are an entrepreneur, and a successful one at that, you are such a humble guy, well done dude, enjoy everything you have and don't let others question the path you have chosen. 👊
Your dad would be proud. Keep up the great work.
Respect to the newest and maybe the youngest man to make his mark in history ....well done to your parents for the work ethic and to you for your constant drive to better yourself.
Your Dad was always proud of you and your work ethic. You was a grafter and switched on even all those years ago filming in Swindon.
He'd still be proud of you now.
And I can vouch for your love to UA-cam (you filmed us Detailing the Maseratj)
Well done Ben, your Dad would be proud. I too suddenly lost my Dad 5 years ago, still coming to terms with it now.. but what you’ve achieved and how you’ve got on with things is pretty inspirational. I regularly listen to your podcasts when i’m in the car, the information we gain from those is fantastic, loving your more recent colabs with Matt and Nico on their channels 👍🏻
I only started watching you a few months ago and you have become one of my favourite channels. I can’t wait until the lake is finally leak free and you are catching fish.
Ben, your dad would be massively proud.
Great to see our town Faringdon featured
Plus seeing the pub I use to meet your Dad and Ray at weekly on a Friday after work. 😊
Awesome vid! Your dad would 100% be proud 👌🏻 inspiring to those that feel theres more to life than ordinary
Absolutely love you Ben and when you appear on other channels it’s smiles all round. Keep up the hard work and silence on the haters. You have worked so hard. You should and hopefully are so very proud. Much success to you.
Tell you what Ben, you’re living the dream. Your dream! I can only have admiration for that, so well done man.
Congratulations Ben. Inspring video. Fu** the haters and trolls. Your building your own future and your dad would be super proud. Wish you very best
Respect ,it would be so easy to live off you fathers legacy yet you have made your dad proud and pushed yourself just like he did . Be proud of yourself and hopefully one day your Children will do the same .
Ben I hope you see these comments praising you and your family. It is very easy to fixate and feed negativity, but you, in every avenue you persue ooze charisma and positivity. There will be those who are jealous of you but always look back on these days where you lay your soul bare and the positive responses you receive.
When kevs is sealed up and fishing I’ll be saving up to come visit and I can’t wait to fish it for some of those monsters.
Never seen such amazing comments. Thanks so much for taking the time to do so!
So nice to have a down to earth normal nice person to watch
This video is perfect. Top top job.
I lost my father last year, I’m blown away by your response to that loss, you really should be proud of yourself.
Sod the haters… you’ve had luck, but who hasn’t. It’s what you do with that luck that counts.
Thanks man, genuinely, thank you :)
He would be super proud, love the transparency and honesty all with complete humility
Out of tragedy comes grace. You're an awesome man and an inspiration
What a genuine nice lad, loved watching your videos of builiding your own fishing lake, your an inspiration, your Dad Kevin, must be so proud of you up there ❤
I lost my dad 4 weeks ago. He instilled a great work ethic in me, just like your dad ✌🏻❤️
I bet you’d give it all up for a a bit more time with your dad.
Ignore the haters, if you haven’t got green eyed trolls trying to rubbish your achievements, you’re not doing it right.!
Much respect to you Ben, with everything you have built and having the courage to share you will inspire many others. I imagine this is only the start, best of luck with the rest of your journey and you deserve everything you have
You’re an inspiration to many Ben. Your Dad would be so so proud. Keep doing you 👏

Ben, I first saw you on Matt’s channel, I’ll be honest, I judged you immediately for the worse… however having watched this video, I was wrong! You deserve everything you currently have and all the success you gain in the future, your dad will be so proud of you. You’ve just gained yourself a subscriber.
Amazing story and amazing job you’ve done, truly inspiring

Ive watched a few road to success episodes, and followed the lake build on and off but i was 7min59secs into the video when i realised you were both the same person 🤯🤯
This is incredible 🤣
Wow that was great Ben you are so humble. I love your lake content
Don't let the jealous haters get to you. You're just using your talents and drive to make a good living for yourself.
Brilliant idea to make a carp pond, I myself is a pike fisherman and don't have the patience to sit and wait for hours for a strike 🤣
Good luck with all your ventures!

Cracking post. Its never been my business who you are or where you're from. However, I follow Mat's channels and I also live very close to Teesside track... so I was drawn in to watching this. As a dad, I'm sure that your dad would be immensely proud of what you have achieved. Follow your dreams and make some memories. D'ya mind if I hang around for the ride? 💙
Thanks for the lovely comment! Some car bits mixed in with the lake building coming soon!
