    When I was a kid I used to love driving through nice neighborhoods to get a glimpse of million dollar mansions.
    And I always wondered, “What do these people do for a living to afford such nice houses?”
    In this video, I go knock on millionaires’ doors and ask if hard work is really the secret to success.

    Something from this video that I took away is most of these people chose amazing partners… their partners are successful in their own right and they play to each other’s strengths and they have genuine affection from the way you hear them talk about it.
    They also seem to be in their 40s-50s.
    So they spent decades also gaining lived experience and they also were willing to pivot in life.

      A lot of people in my opinion see others who are wealthy and successful but don’t see or don’t want to acknowledge the journey of actually getting there. The work and time that goes in, facing adversity and overcoming it, etc. Jealousy and insecurity, and people wanting it all now instead of being patient or they believe it’s not possible, or that the person must’ve had wealthy parents or something. Tearing down others who are doing well in life will not help you build yourself up and reach your goals, it only holds you farther back.

Don't get me wrong I love all your content and truly appreciate the time and effort you are putting in these videos to inspire us all. This type of content is opposite of those videos, back then you gave advice to help the entrepreneurs succeed, with this series you are reverse engineering what made these people successful...

      I stumbled over your comments. Im 31 and was until recently thinking the very same - I have to become stable, get laid, get kids, get a house and earn money for my pension. But - I whiped any imaginary timeline from my mind. What I mean is - our parents had everything earlier then we will, if we will ever. Times changed. We cant compare our generations, because prices skyrocked so much, you simply cant reach some selfmade goals because they are hidden behind a paywall. So instead of getting haunted by these thoughts, poisoning your mind, you should try to let go and rather try to enjoy your life as it is. Never let go from your dreams, but dont tell yourself "I habe to own kids with 30. I habe to own a house woth 35." This will only make you frightened and year after year will pass, only to clamp on the thought to make lots of money. There are indeed jobs, which earn more then others, especially IT. But if you hate programming, you will never exceed in that and therefore will be only average in what you do. Maybe you can achieve your goals on a different way - instead of an house you pay rent and safe every month some money when you get old, instead of having your own garden you can maybe rent a garden for a cheap price. What I want to say is we shouldnt be blaming these shitty times because damn they suck, but rather try to make the best out of it as long as we are healthy and can stand up by ourself.

    Amazing video. You did the same in 2021 and after a year I can see how much difference you had in regards to the way you ask people. The previous one was a bit jarring and that could be the reason why you did not get as many people to open up as this time. A person runs into someone's door and say 'I'm a UA-camr and I want to know what you do for a living?' doesn't give a very good impression. But this time you say 'I run a tech company and we do UA-cam videos to help young people to be successful. Do you have any advice for them?' You gave yourself credibility, you let them know you are not just doing this randomly, you let them aware of the purpose of the content, and you are sincere. I think that makes a huge difference. I look forward to seeing more of these.

    Quick tip, I make friends with older people. Lots of people think I’m strange, but I’ve learned something a long time ago that few people realize and he made a point of in the video. Older people have so much wisdom and they share it freely. This has enabled me to become wiser than if I had friends my age. Also, tap into really good books on business that open your mind up and make you see differently. The more you learn the less you see starting a business as something you could never do, It demystifies the process. You have to put in the work and study when your peers are out partying.

      Well yes but there is a bias here where he's interviewing those who literally got lucky while also being hard working and disciplined. The majority of entrepreneurs are hard working and disciplined but unfortunately don't get lucky and end up failing.
      If you take a sample of 100 entrepreneurs, most of them will say they're hard working and disciplined, but what separates those that succeeded from those that failed is simply (and unfortunately) luck. In terms of the way the successful entrepreneurs got lucky, this usually means being at the right place at the right time and meeting the right people at the right time.

    This is so cool Noah. I love how to the people have no idea about you and you hear patiently to their advices. I love how you admire and respect what they have to say although you have achieved more than them. Fan of your humility. Also love how you handle the rejections. Such a gentlemen.
    I have been trying to learn to code from the past couple of days. I don't have a good laptop to practice coding and grow further. I have a shitty second hand laptop which don't work unless plugged in. It automatically turns off after an hour or so. It's a nightmare. 1000 dollars would really mean a lot to me, so that i could get a good laptop and learn stuff. I'm a 20 y/o from India, I have really learned a lot from you and your content. I am eagerly waiting for your book too.

    GREAT VIDEO! I love how you said "focus on one thing," and then the very next lady who lives mostly full-time in Italy shared the myriad of ways that she and her husband bring in income. I am one of those who believes in earning multiple streams of income - preferably passive income - a lot of people have built wealth from businesses that they built on the side. The best message is to always keep an open mind because we never know what opportunities could come our way. I love that these people were so open and willing to share.

    Great interviews! Interesting profiles. I don't know what percentage said "no" to the interview, but the folks you showed were generous with their time. I always tell young people to inquire about how successful people achieved their success. 80% of success is just showing up. The other 20% is identifying an opportunity (meeting the needs of others), and acting on that opportunity. You'd be surprised how many people just don't "show up".

      The irony is that the first guy said "follow your passion, do what you love." Then, Noah: "is software what you loved to do?". Him: "no, I wanted to be a musician" 😂 the irony.
      In his case, what really worked for him is to use the great opportunities he got in front of him, thanks to his husband's job.
      Conclusion: Enjoy your passion, but be realistic at the same time. Do not waste the opportunities you have in front of you, in order to try something that has much probabilities to don't work than to work.
