a normal guy who became a legit billionaire without psychopathic and narcissistic behaviour.
what a man, so well deserved !
and sad thing is people look at billionaire = rich asshole who isnt helping society
LEGEND!!
You can determine, from that short video that he is not psychopathic and narcissistic?
@@orvinstrickler2130 yes, because people have been working for this man for decades.
Would you work so long for a guy that had that kind of behaviour? Ofc not.. you can just tell by his aura, that he is a decent person tbh.
@marken8888 But people put 30 to 40 years at ATT, KO, school systems etc. You are making no sence because you don't know history. Feel sorry for people like you that live the rest of their lives on feminine feelings.
This guy is a genius. The way he praises his employees and pay them well. That guy understood everything it is to get to lead a business especially the type of business he is doing.
his point on rebuild the company if you change people all the time is so true. That guy a genius.. I don't use that word easily. And I am kinda smart myself. And the positive psychology books that people still laugh bout to this day is also a genius move. Sometimes your mindset is bad. It's actually smart to improve it. The same way you hire one of the real men of his business to fix your basement.
Oh yes its hard to find skilled workers
Its even harder to keep them
I worked in a readymix concrete and block factory
The profits was decreasing from 2011 - 2019 because of low demand, taxes and most importantly high government fees
But we were profitable at least
till upper management changed 50% of skilled workers to decrease cost
Today they are loosing money and soon will close shop
Its easier to demolish than to build
😢v🎉 3:0b3😮😢
😮mm 🎉😮🎉😢😢
😢
"They earn it..."
"If you have continual turnover, nobody gets good at what they're doing"
This needs to be said much much more.
Every employee ever has said that and are constantly complaining. But upper management doesnt see it like this. They only see numbers. And for most, you are exactly that, a number, not more. They see you as an easily replaceable asset.
Their local “basement systems” franchise in my area has some of the highest turnover of any construction company in the area.
yea im sure the guys digging dont last long@@BearsEatBeetz
A breath of fresh air amidst hustle culture. Just someone doing the right thing for a long time
"It's been 40 years, okay? We didn't make big jumps. We made a lot of little ones." gave me goosebumps! He's got the right mindset and great humility. It's no wonder his companies are so successful!
To be fair, the gradual process is similar for most businesses, even in tech.
Mindsets and companies are fictional. How could slaves not be successful?
Success comes from repeated failure, if you experience only success, you are perfect, and let's be clear, no one is.
Same with gambling
@@al87221 Gambling is designed in the way that house always wins ...
You can see how much this guy respects and values his employees. Definitely one of the keys to his success.
He doesn't, 100 thousand a year for putting up with all that crappy job and that could make you sick, the money you earned will be not even enough to heal. This guy is the typical narcicist who makes a fortune and do not enjoy it, because he is a slave of his empire.
He looks worried or stressed.
His calm like KDB
@@pierreclifton1865 he doesn't look stressed or worried Bruh lol. thats who he is and he seems he is happy for what he accomplish in his life
@@pierreclifton1865 If that looks worried or stressed to you then you havent been out in the real world long enough. he looked absolutely fine and content. hes the center of the documentary in front of a camera. of course he might have some tense moments.
Noah is amazing. “How to secure wealth”
Making money is action, saving money is behavior and Growing money is knowIedge.
I am fortunate I made productive decisions that changed my finances (accumuIated over 1MiII in 2years) through my financiaI coach. Bought my 2nd house in January and hoping to retire at 51 next year.
researvh the name, lf you care.
Rebecca Martin Watson
l’m amazed to partake on this, lt has rekindled the fire to my goaIs.
This guys is a purest example of a leader, not a boss. He treats people that works under him as a member of a big family. Hell of a man~
still it happens@@Jk-qx7gm
just need bazos and musk to see this and change now.
Absolutely. But it's also helped by the generous profit margins in construction. The bigger the projects, the more margin you can have.
@@justincredible5406 Bingo!!!! 🎯🎯
Gladiator is one of my favorite movies and a example of what a leader is all about .Respect , the Fondation of Balance
“We didn’t make a big jump, we made a lot of little ones”. Is the realest it gets. No one sees the hard work behind the curtains, until the success is bigger than itself.
Realest*
@smirky9127 Yes thank you 🙏
Best comment 🙏🏽❤️
Yea and then Noah Kagan goes on to promote his book of starting a 7 figure business in 48 hours. Can't make this up.
This guy right here understood it. He got it. If every CEO had this man’s mindset and admiration for his own employees, people would actually take pride in their day jobs and not get burnt out after just a couple years. Working for a company where you feel like you’re basically invisible and your opinion and contributions don’t matter, will begin to eat away at you. Would love to work for this guy.
That ad break at 5:50 was pretty funny.
"At your funeral, nobody's going to say oh he had so much money, they don't care"
into
"learn how to double your income"
😂😂😂
✔️💯🎯🤣😂😆😅🤭
I went Premium due to being sick and tired of the ads but yes I seen some wierd ads.
youtube revanced, or u block origin. you are welcome. :)
So many people in their teen years (myself included) don’t think about their future, or they think “I want to be wealthy” but aren’t making a plan to get there. People need to realize that they can start really young and be successful very early in their lives. Entrepreneurship consists of going out and doing it. As an owner operator in the trucking section, running a multi million $$ business, I deeply understand what it means having your own people around for that long, with willingness to work, common 😮 that defines his great personality, I learnt something different today 👍🏽 Larry is the guy ✨
You are right about this.
We need lot of Larry in the employers space
chat did we just find the first ethical billionaire???
The fact he’s not blowing smoke says everything about him, from not working insanely hard, family first, praising employees and paying them well says everything.
Have you ever stopped to think; how does someone earn billions while not working? The answer is - other people work for him. Maybe you should stop simping for billionaires that have nothing in common with you lol
Working 70 hours a week and putting family first doesn’t sound serious…
@@newyorkalbHave you ever stopped to think how ineffective your response was. It gives no helpful insight other than negative judgement. Maybe you should stop simping for negative energy and harness a more positive mindset.
@@sylvainlaurence1554I heard something different. Don't work 70 hours a week. I currently work 70 hours a week at my business and I miss my family.
@@chanyoung3725 The truth sure seemed to affect you negatively, maybe you should reflect on why that is instead.
I've worked with probably hundreds of millionaires and shaken the hands of two billionaires but none were as humble as this guy. A real gem.
@@justinwitt6364ahh yess here we go. If everyone would be happy then this guy would have created utopia. His success speaks for itself self. You can’t make everyone happy but the right people you certainly can and that’s what he has done.
@@justinwitt6364 typical billionaires. its time for the proletariat stop falling for this american dream trap. he doesnt deserve his wealth. it was created by his employees.
We must end with capitalism
Should take with a grain of salt. As someone who has worked maintaince for almost 10 years, we run on bitterness nicotine and caffeine.
If you're not bitching, your either new or dead.
@@zeusdarkgod7727holy 💩 this is SPOT on.
@@zeusdarkgod7727 yeah I left the trades because of that haha. Wages have actually gone down slightly ($26.13 to $25.98 an hour) since 1960 in the construction industry. Not worth it when you're not an electrician or HVAC guy. There are a few other trades that make okay money, but it's still barely worth the amount of back breaking work that's required lol.
I think this is the best interview of a multimillionaire I have ever seen. Literally down to earth. I am not even sure if those high profile tech billionaires even know how to fix a leaky roof or plumbing.
This guy is probably my favorite billionaire. He's a humble dude who isn't in this for the money but rather delivering a quality services/products to people and treating the people who make those products/do those services with respect and dignity. That's what a real CEO should be. Someone who puts their people and product first ethically. I also love how much he's for creating a better environment too.
We’re all in it for the money
@@bigboner23 not all of us. I do my job cuz it's fun. Life should be fulfilling.
@@Shanemvm That's called a luxury.
"my favourite billionaire" lmao like you keep a list of billionaires
@@DontGood him and Mark Cuban. I don't like most of them tho.
"Its been 40 years... We didn't make a big jump, we made a lot of little ones"
This is fantastic advice. You don't even have to necessarily be an entrepreneur to put it in practice either.
😂and then 5-seconds later “HOW TO BECOME A MILLIONAIRE IN 48 HOURS!”
I agree...fantastic advice that can applied in many ways. Sometimes our small jumps can lead us to be positioned to make the big jumps we haven't imagined yet.
It is indeed the small jumps. Always aiming for a big jumps promotes procrastination, burnout, and stopping at failure
Small jumps only require small risks, big jumps take big risks. We can see alot of people who take small jumps over a long period of time do well. We also see people who take big jumps do really well.
What we don't look at are the failures, classic survivorship basis.
I imagine if you take this guy's advice your life has a very good chance to be fruitful and happy, you take some crypto guru advice or gamble your money you're almost guaranteed to fail.
The most important advice though is just to try being a entrepreneur, the chances of getting hit by lightning are small. Right up until you decide to hike up a mountain in the rain. Remember that people.
The thing about overnight success is that it takes a long damn time. People always forget the time that went by where people make lots of small jumps. They only remember the part after the system starts to return.
As a construction worker. This video is way more relatable and motivating for me than guys in finance, shipping, or tech. Great relatability for me.
You're an old school guy
Your avatar says opposite. Not judging thou.
It must have been nice to grow up when thre was no regulation and as a 18 year old kid with no experience was allowed to just build a house. Go try that today.
@@tukek88 TRUE! Man I was thinking about the same thing. The city would arrest you if you tried to do that today
@@tukek88 I am a 34 year old in trades and if someone asked me to build a whole ass house I'd have no idea where to even begin. He must have had a good upbringing or a dad who was a builder.
The way he talks about his staff, shows there are good ceo's out there, they're just insanely rare
investing requires good experience and knowledge to carry out a good and successful trade, I have lost a lot trying to trade all by myself May I ask which investments are good??>>>>
Building wealth from nothing involves consistent saving, disciplined spending, and strategic investments. Begin by creating a budget to track expenses and identify areas for savings. Prioritize paying off high-interest debt and establishing an emergency fund. As you build a foundation, start investing in low-cost options like index funds, and focus on continuous learning and improving your skills for better income opportunities.
Impressive insights! For beginners like me, managing and staying updated can be overwhelming. Are you an experienced investor or do you have a strategic approach for staying informed?
Absolutely not, as I've closely tracked my portfolio's performance, witnessing a staggering $482k growth in just the last two quarters. This experience has taught me the secrets behind experienced traders' substantial gains in what might appear as unpredictable markets. Undoubtedly, it's been a bold and rewarding choice I made fairly recently
This aligns perfectly with my desire to organize my finances prior to retirement. Could you provide me with access to your advisor?
Do your homework and choose one that has strategies to help your portfolio grow consistently and steadily. Pamela Kay Regel is responsible for the success of my portfolio, and I believe she possesses the qualifications and expertise to meet your goals.
I am going to look her up, I have about $81k i want to start with, might be small but it's better than nothing though. Since the 08 crash is playing out again.
Great to see that he invests in his workers, not just equipment. And I have the feeling that anyone can speak with him, the way it should be.
I am fully confident in my abilities to achieve my goals and succeed in whatever I set my mind to. I know that I have the skills, knowledge, and determination to overcome any challenge that comes my way. I trust myself to make the right decisions and take the necessary actions to create the life that I want. I am not afraid to take risks and step out of my comfort zone because I believe in my ability to handle whatever comes my way. I am unstoppable!
I receive, believe, and have prepared to manage and grow these resources, for God's glory, In Jesus's Name.
Jesus and God should lead me to financial freedom. Amen.
Thank the Lord🙏Amen
After enduring many struggles, I am now filled with gratitude for owning a new home. My family is happy, and everything is finally falling into place.
"I have been searching for ways to achieve success. Can you please guide me on how to do so?"
I've worked in several places that do not value their employees like this man, and boy, you can tell the difference right off. Employees are your MOST VALUABLE ASSET!! Loyalty is everything. Total respect.
lol Did you apply yet?
The discipline it required to be successful ain’t no joke lmao
imagine a 18yr boy building houses ....this gotta be the craziest thing i ever came across. These are the types of guys that shows me that everything is possible..and am 18
And it's also crazy how he asked "I'm 18 years old, is that okay with you?" Congratulations to the people who gave the boy an opportunity.
I have a friend like this guy, he always excelled at whatever he did, always looking to the horizon, never sits idle. Just keep keeping on. Good is never good enough.
Its only a big deal in modern times because everyone is so lazy now. Use to be common
na ur are lazy u wont accomplish anything
In third world countries hard labour on below 18 is very common
I have never seen such an authentic billionaire. He is a genius and real man
Love that guy! He's at the top but he stays humble. And I love how his company is a family, a very big family. Awesome!
I worked in construction all my life. This guy recognizing his employees like that filled my hearth with pride and joy.
He is a real leader. I would bust my ass for a boss like that.
And he will happily reap the bulk of the rewards off your back of hard work. Lick that boot.
@@iwontreplybacklol7481truth
Be your own boss and bust your ass like he did!
Perfectly said. I would love to work for him. At 54, I think I might get my ass in shape and give them a call. I know I get fit in somewhere.
@@iwontreplybacklol7481he pays his workers well,I sense a bit of jealousy?
“Didnt make a big jump, we made a lot of little ones” that phrase is so key.
What makes this man successful is his entire mindset and perspective! His driving force is NOT the money factor- His driving force is the people!!! The people he employs, his customers, people in general! The purpose of life was never to serve ourselves as most do; life’s purpose is to serve one another!
Hard work does not equal wealth" took me 50 yrs to understand that
Investing in cryptocurrency now should be in every wise individuals list, in some months time you'll be ecstatic with the decision you made today
Successful people don't become that way overnight. What most people see at a glance-wealth, a great career, purpose-is the result of hard work and hustle over time
It's mostly luck and not hard work. The work comes in once you try and capitalize off of your luck, but at the end of the day, it's being lucky to hit the spot that is needed enough to generate revenue like that in the first place.@@madstone4535
Im 34 garbage colector i see that easy someone work minimal get paid same as someone who work barely at the end of the month no hard work dosent pay good only if u are your own boss
Well you see what a lot of people have to understand is hard work and dedication isn’t just hard work and dedication. It’s also hard work dedication and who pays you and how many people pay you and once you understand where your money comes from an hour you can manipulate that in your favor, you’ll be surprised how much more money you’ll make the only reason why a lot of people aren’t rich or a lot of people don’t try new things cause they don’t know where to begin and they don’t try to figure that out. That’s why they’re limited based on where they’re at
Man, listening to Larry's story hit me hard. From a humble start at 17, building houses with his buddies, to a $600 million empire. That's not just success, it's a damn masterpiece!
Absolutely! What really got me was his refusal to quit, even when he was $5.5 million in the hole. That kind of perseverance is like a gut punch, you know? So inspiring.
@@JoseghDavid speaking of turning things around, I've got to share my story. Bringing Emily Ava Milligan into my life was like injecting rocket fuel into my life. The way she's handled my investmnts. My financial world has done a complete 180. It's emotional just thinking about it.
@@JamesMiler-rn8wb I'm happy for you, that's incredible! What's the best part for you?
@@JoseghDavid Honestly, it's the sheer turnaround. I went from stressing about bills to looking at invėstmnt reports with a smile. Emily's strategies are like poetry for your bank account. My family's future feels so much more secure now.
@@JamesMiler-rn8wb I can feel your excitement in your words. It's not just about money, it's about peace of mind and security. How did you connect with Emily avamilligan in the first place?
I had no idea that Larry was this successful. His old school UA-cam videos helped me so much to learn about properly insulating my home. He has been so ahead of the game - cheers to all his success.
I saw his videos competing in the baja 1000, I didn't know his company was this big.
I don't think it's his old school. I watched the entire video no mention of a school that he owns.
@xcelr8n Can you provide a link to those videos, please?
And that, is exactly how it should be and a very real 'secret ingredient' to success:
genuine humility
I learned a lot about cellulose from Larry. I want to say he personally responded to some of my questions.
This guy gives off such wholesome vibes. The thing that really encapsulated his attitude for me was his misunderstanding of the phrase "Shit rolls downhill" - an expression that usually means that if your boss is in trouble they will try to palm it off to their subordinates. The fact he thinks the expression is the opposite of this says so much about him - that it should be the boss that deals with the problems, not the one palming off the problems to those below themselves.
I think he meant that he hired competent people so that the "shit" doesn't reach him anymore since the people under him know how to fix it
u must be either bot or a kid
Anybody who says vibe and wholesome can't be taken seriously
Misunderstanding. Lol
So you fell for that one lol you all need some street smarts.
I absolutely❤his attitude‼️✔️💯🎯No wonder ppl stay and don't leave. He treats them well and they honor him by putting their best foot forward. I love how his own son is a chip off the old block and is putting in just as much productivity and not just living off of his father's efforts. That shows just how much love admiration and respect he has for his dad.
Transfer of wealth usually occur during market crash, so the more stocks drop, the more I buy, in the meanwhile I'm just focused on making better investments and earning more as recession fear increases, apparently there are strategies to 3x gains in this present market cos I read of someone that pulled a profit of $350k within 6months, and it would really help if you could make a video covering these strategies.
Your assistance was helpful. I was able to have a conversation with her. What's even better is that she's certified with a registered broker. I'm getting started right away!
I see how you set that up. lol
Paying his employers what they deserve puts a big smile on my face
employees
they should be getting more
You think these videos are real? lol
@@jackwhite108 ur delusional.
@@raintrunberg2195 elaborate
This guy is so awesome
A boss who's thankful for what his employees do, it's just nice to hear his words
this is called a well paid ad.
"We didn't make a BIG jump; we made a lot of little ones!" Thats a great message that our youth needs to hear. Long term consistency with a vison and achievable goals driving it will yield no matter what.
One of the BEST CEO interviews I have ever encountered. I care about how leaders treat their employees and a company's retention speaks volumes. Paying them well but treating them better.
I’ve met Larry and was a sales rep for one of his dealers many years ago. Amazing what he has accomplished and thankful for all I learned while in the industry. Congrats, Larry!
I like him already! He SO nailed it when he said that what is more important than money is that he has made a positive impact on the world and will leave it better than he found it. Bingo.
Pbatesltd is young. Holding almost anything mentioned here is a good hold because the VHS or Beta will only show in time. I want to hold them early. Its sad that most dont think of these things as good future holds instead of being out of the market and bottom hunting. Are we the adopters or are we scavengers? surely one of these layer ones will become the standard and i dont want to sell any of them too early.
Dude is so chilled and his explanation is just perfect.
People don't stay that long in companies unless they're treated and paid their worth.
Yeah. We should all aim to have some self-respect. If the employer treats you poorly, if the boss is a mean son of a b*tch and you get paid the bare minimum, just quit. You don't owe them anything.
@@randomnumbers84269 absolutely. There's no point in staying at a place that is constantly chipping away at your mental health for damn peanuts, even for a well-paying job. You die, they replace you within a week or month.
Yes, but the dignity you deserve as a human vs your ability to do your job aren't the same. If you suck at your job, can't or won't improve, and aren't trying to be the best then you aren't going to be seen as a high value employee. There's two sides to everything.
@@Gunfighter95 yes, agreed again
I'm one of ~120 people in the building and haven't met my CEO yet :\
Currently looking for employment somewhere else
this guy is such a great person with his morals. he said it`s not about how much money you made and it`s the relationships and difference you make in the world and family time.
Great interview! This really inspired me and let me know I am definitely on the right path as I pursue my private anxiety coaching practice. You just earned another subscriber! Thank you❤
The problem we have is because Most people always taught that " you only need a good job to become rich " . These billionaires are operating on a whole other playbook that many don't even know exists.
Getting rich easily absolutely exists and happens everyday.
Getting wealthy is hard work ☹️.
I prefer the Kings GBP Sterling, far more genuine currency if you take into account the Trillions of debt the US government owes ✌️
Money invested is far better than money saved.
People prefer to spend money on liabilities, Rather than investing in assets and be very profitable.
@@KaylaAlexis.Yeah, All passive income ideas work as long as you put the work in. I focus more on crypto/real estate with the assistance of my financial consultant Karen L Nancy.
$100K BY THE END OF THIS YEAR?
HOW ARE YOU GUYS MAKING THIS MONEY?
When it comes to Trade, I can confidently say that crypto is the best option. But most people think it's all about buying and leaving it to rise but It takes a lot more you need to trade it to earn daily.
You are right, I always advice new members to have an orientation on how it works before getting involved.Trade offers more benefits than just holding.
Foundational repair requires you to rip up half the property and put it back together, you're gonna need an inspector, plumber, electrician, land surveyor, build planner, heavy equipment operator, and someone that does walling/flooring/roofing/painting. A lot of these jobs are labor intensive, require licensing, state law knowledge, material science understanding, physics, math, etcs. They get paid real money because they create real value, they're not crack-heads doing half ass dry walling.
I am also just retiring from the police force after 28 years. His description of the people dropping off a dead baby at the front counter conjures up a lot of emotion. There are a lot of callous people out there who don’t emotionally process things like a “normal person”. Police and other first responders are regularly in contact with people like this. There’s no way to describe how that makes you feel. It breaks you. And this veteran came out of the Vietnam War. Unbelievable. I am so impressed with how he handled this interview. Courageous is not a big enough word to describe him. Thank you to him and all Veterans past and present as well, law enforcement personnel for their service! 🙏
This is your best video. In a sea of get rich quick and 100-hr week millionaires, this guy is a breath of fresh air.
Nice work. I’ve been on the PbatesLTD train for a while, never sold as they are always building.
As a blue collar bastard, this has been my favorite video. I strive to own my own construction company within the next 10 years. I’ve read this guy’s story multiple times and he’s the real deal. Immense respect for this man.
Short and sweet: You gotta exploit others hard work and take off their backs.
@@iwontreplybacklol7481this is bs and it tells me right away where your level of thinking is

Mmmmmm @@iwontreplybacklol7481
I will add that he knows how to treat his employees well! A natural entrepreneur, and super smart!
Omg I needed to hear this. Thank You for your sustainable values. Please replace the greed and narcissistic temporal solutions. Knowing better and not doing better is the definition of Evil.
I bought me some TSLA and SOFI last month. Some Investors are preaching buy the dip, some are selling without a concern should I too? I am asking because after a pretty good September I am up to 274k from 180k at the beginning of the 2nd quarter thanks to the likes of PLTR and NVDA.
the mirage caused by inflation is beginning to affect the mind of investors, studies found that investors undervalue stocks in the presence of high inflation just buy the dip, DCA with caution, maybe see an advisoor
Yes, it can also be brought down to the fact that Investors will make the same error, in reverse, when inflation and interest rates start to come down. That’s why a foundation of a major buy signal should currently being built.
Do your research and always speak with an advisor before putting your money in these crazy markets. Look online or around you for experienced ones, I can’t let someone who hasn’t lived through at least one depression give me advice.
That’s right. I work with a plannner, fixed income strategist and stock market analyst, Monica Mary Strigle. She has been interviewed on a lot of business videos and has an aum of over 500m usd.
Hi what is the fee you are charged for the services offered, did you pay any upfront fees for consulting? Because I just set up a consult and I am not sure what to expect back, thanks for ur prompt response.
I love this guy. You can tell Noah was having a hard time relating to his business but he definitely asked him great entrepreneur questions that nobody ever asks him.
it should have been longer
the interviewer is too young, they should of used somebody that was born in the 80s, before tech exploded.
Well, I must say that people are
afraid. there are so many
non-professional runners out there.
I think I'm blessed if not I wouldn't have met someone who is as spectacular as expert Rita Orlando
Having monitored my portfolio
performance, a has made
me a jaw dropping $370k from just the past two quarters alone. I have learned why these experienced traders make enormous returns from the seemingly unknown market
How can you not love this guy and you can see why people work decades with/for him.
I love how this shows that having a CEO that started with his hands in the dirt will understand what really matters. Not someone from harvard business school that hasn't held a screwdriver in their life. Good for you man, great job. And you're not just making all those millions or whatver, you're feeding a whole bunch of people along the way.
What's the difference? If you're not sitting next to them in the boardroom, they're the same person as you work your shift.
@@BleedForTheWorldIts not the same at all, i dont know about a company but in the army People respect way more to Officers who were prior enlisted soldiers who did the same thing as them compared to the ones who just got out of a military school and come give orders. They run things completely different as one actually has prior experience and can empathize with the people he gives orders while the otherone doesn't.
@@spcsandbag6517 this isn't the military but when it comes to having a hierarchy for these sort of marching orders, you're not wrong. Yeah, this CEO wasn't exactly born with a silver spoon but their place in the order is exactly the same as any other CEO, attaining value from the labor production of others.
@@BleedForTheWorld Yeah? that's what a company is, or any kind of organization, that is the role of a leader in pretty much any organization but different leaders and philosophies impact the workers and people under them, just because they are "CEOs" doesn't mean they all act the same or run things the same way.
@@BleedForTheWorld You could also say the same thing for a professor in school, they all have the same position but some of them absolutely suck and some are really good at teaching, and their methods of teaching impact students. same thing for leaders of a company and workers.
The best thing from this video, in my opinion, is when he talked about the difference when your workers stay in the company, instead of changing people and rebuilding the company again and again in that way. So many owners can't get that right, in my opinion. This guy is smart!
YYYEEESSSS!! And when he talks of how if money is the goal you miss it... Man! What a timely interview!!
And yet common sense is all it takes to fundamentally understand that basic tenet. But they miss it anyway.
I started with a company like Larry's when I was 25. I recruited 15 people to work in my immediate team/department in 1988. We are all still there today 35 years later.
@@donttalkcrap wonderful!
Oh wow I guess owning a multi billion dollar company is just a normal job these days.
This guy squeezed a tear from my eye and I am not even in half of the video. This is what I needed to watch.
Partaking in strategic investments could be the key to transforming a blue-collar venture into a lucrative opportunity
It's easier said than done. The risks are high, and success stories like that are rare. It's not a practical path for most people.
That's a risky attitude, My friend. You might be missing out on some valuable opportunities and strategies that a finance advisor can offer. A finance advisor can help you plan for your short-term and long-term goals, optimize your tax situation, diversify your portfolio, and avoid costly mistakes.
I agree with You. A finance advisor can also provide you with objective and unbiased advice, especially when you are facing emotional or stressful situations from work. They can help you stay on track and avoid making impulsive decisions that can harm your financial future.
How did you find a good finance advisor? How do you know if they are trustworthy and competent?
You should look for a finance advisor who has the proper credentials, such as Lucy Rose Carter (CFP). You can check their background, experience, and reputation ON GOOGLE.
The video I wish I’d seen in my 20’s. Pay attention to this.
How is this valueable?
Technical classes in highschool are awesome. Need more of those. I took electrical technology (electrician / electrical engineering path) and learned a lot. Got a summer job doing electrical work and gained valuable experience. I didn't choose that path, but it improved my understanding of how the world works. Kids need these practical skills and perspectives.
Imagine high school preparing you to start your own business, rather than only preparing you to go into lifelong debt for college so you’re stuck working for someone else.
@@LuckyCharms777 Exactly. Love the way you framed it. A skill based business is definitely a more powerful position to start adult life with for most people. And you can always do continuing education on the side to level up general knowledge or get degrees as you work and earn.
In New York the democratic politicians did away with all the trade school programs for kids in the inner city teaching them skills that can make them independently wealthy. These politicians today don't want our youth truly educated
I did the same path but i stayed on it and now im a maintenance technician/electrical engineer in a chem cleaning company at 23 and once i started to work here i still feel like ive missed alot of stuff to learn about especially with my hands
I was a very smart kid (went to top uni's and unfortuneatly became a lawyer)....in high school guidence counsler calls me down asking why I am taking auto and metal shop if I am applying to top schools....it will hurt your chances....my response...only classes I am learning anything
One of the most smartest business man I ever heard and a very lovely boss much respect!
THIS is a boss to look up to! He 100% listens to his people.
He keeps the people he can listen to.
You should do a new video about Pbatesltd ! I really like you’re mellow delivery and you seem like you’re very knowledgeable. I watch lots of influencers and you always seem very calculated and know exactly what you’re talking about and understand it. You’re better at explaining complicated things simply, than any other person on youtube keep it up brother!
Respect for his employees, respect for his customers, respect for his dealers, great work ethic, patience&humility, family man, sense of legacy, ... .
This man is a true role mode❤!
People always say that but in this case I have to agree, "I don't get my self esteem from how much money I get, I get it from the people working here saying 'I trust you'"

Putting up plastic in the crawl space with a Dehumidifier is completely Wrong on every level the plastic is a health hazard and fire hazard and the dehumidifier uses tons of electric. All you need to do is devert the downspout water far from the house.
@@portagepete1 There is always someone who thinks they can do it better, but until they do, it's just talk.
@@portagepete1 Good ol' Adam Savage always says: "In theory, practice and theory is the same; but in practice...".
Massive respect and a surprise to this video! I wasn't expecting this to hit so close to home for me! I am a consultant who works with supportworks and basement system products and I demo to our clients Larry Janesky's products daily!
“Did you leave the world better than when you found it?”…This hits hard!!!
Larry is a man who worked hard and knows how to treat people, especially people who work for him and because of that, he became successful.
Kudos to you, Larry ❗️
He is a rarity now days. An employer that does not look at his employees as just numbers.
This is how things should work in all industries. No bullshit, just good honest, hard-working commitment. Thanks for creating this documentary.
Unfortunately, it's just not the way people are anymore.
whatever u say bot promo account. most youtuebrs are jsut scammmers
@@Dualities Maybe it's the weed?
sofar your the only smart one I found on here.@@Dualities
This guy is a freaking legend! Such great insights from some one who's walking the walk. Inspiring to say the least -- thanks for the great content Noah!
What a phenomenal champion. He's working towards the right goals, ensuring he's making an impact for the world, and cares for his people and family. That is the essence of Ikigai.
When I was 12 I said I would never work for a boss and I haven't. I started my own business and is doing alright. This guy, I wouldn't mind working for him. He doesn't strike me as the 'boss' man but a leader who values his guys. You my man, I hope you all the best may you even become wealthier than you already are and grow your business even more and hire more people. You're a true example of how a leader should be. You have my respect without even meeting you
You can tell he has a real passion for his craft. Awesome guy!
The way he talks about his employees is incredible. Hes so proud of them and he looks like a delight to work for.
naw everyone says he's greedy asf on glassdoor 😭
because he pockets their hard work, and gives them pennies of what they actually earned for the company.
This guyyyy is super calm and super wise. There is an aura about him and the way he talks and works. I weaved so much game from this session. He kinda gave me a new insight about his views on the recent tech trends.
Great video. I love seeing founders passionate about their work and employees, it’s inspiring (and refreshing) to see the humility from someone who is proud of their life’s work.
What a great interview. A successful businessman who grinded and kept his family a priority. Much respect.
When you receive more than you put out you can take the weekends off.
Thanks for sharing Larry J. Lots of great lessons in there....love the old Zig Ziglar tapes as well. I still remember Zig saying "Why settle for the get-by, when in the long run ....it will cost you more!". Built from quality.....
One of the best videos on business ever made!! And I watch a lot of content. The quality of this guy Larry is on a whole other level. He’s calm, collective and in the present moment
What a video Noah! Thanks for putting this out.
I love how Larry is a sorted, worked-through-the-school-of-hardknocks kind of a guy. Built a massive business, but understood the value of family time.
Makes me re-instill my faith simple old school businesses. I particularly loved the point about the constant churn and how you're starting fresh every twenty four months. Goes to show how longevity and continuous improvement, compounds over time. 40+ years of compounding!
Great video again, Noah. Always happy to see old school, successful businesses getting the spotlight.
Success depends on the actions or steps you take to achieve it. Building wealth involves developing good habits like regularly putting money away in intervals for solid investments. Financial management is a crucial topic that most tend to shy away from, and ends up haunting them in the near future.., I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life!!
Just seems like a nice, down to earth, hard working and decent man. A great boss. These are the people who should have success.
How did this guy know how to build a house at 17? I have a son and man would I love for him to have a skill like that at 17.
Just saw the part about vocational high school.
This guy is a humble genius. 32 patents??? Get me some of those motivational tapes!!
It was a lot easier back then, no strict building codes or permits, you basically could just buy a bunch of wood and nails and with a saw and hammer you're good to go.
@@joshuadalton6063 You hear this a lot. Big company's that started in the 80's couldn't start again now. The rules are strickt, licences , permits.... Materials are way more expensive, labor is way more expensive. Now it's impossible for an 18yr old to build a house with his 17 and 14 yr old brother.
@@Barthoization Well not off the grid in some place no-one will see it or bother you about it, but yeah not in any city or town any more.
Houses back then were built with wood, paper and nails.
@@Barthoization He can certainly learn to do alot of things though, including trades.
6:30 A common thread of success is mentorship. He found mentors and listened closely to the sage advice before acting upon it. Good job, dude. Solid entrepreneur!
Thank you for being there Pbatesltd when I wanted you to..... I was lost in this new world that I was hassled to start with ....you not only guided me along the way but you also showed me the proper way....whatever little I have been able to achieve in life is because of you today ..... I want to thank you for being there and showing me the proper way of doing thing for me you are my best guide as you truly showed me the way to life....once again , I would like to tell you a heartfelt thanks for being there.
I get tears in my eyes, this man is such an example of true character! Also his long-term mindset instead of the quick gains nowadays people think about is refreshing.
lol your killing me I know All these comments are coming from within. but nice try I'm sure lots of people won't notice.
Yeah these are obviously bots or people on his team being paid to dickride. The billionaire is only going to allow you to make up to 100k a year, only if you work really hard in a dangerous, almost impossible job
Im the most amazed how he seems to delegate responsibilities to the right people and understands that a high personal change is a very bad thing to have in your company. I have worked at companies with a lot of potential but with the owners having a mindset of they are the company, forgetting the employees.
Growing up I hated school. My marine biology professor during a parent-teacher conference looked at my dad and said your son is not going to be an academic he should go learn to fix refrigerators or become a plumber.
My father looked at me and said see this is why you need to study or else you'll end up doing one of those jobs. I went my whole life chasing office jobs thinking that this is what I should be doing.
I'm now 39, I'm in good health and I'm honestly considering leaving the corporate office world and just getting one of these jobs I know it's hard work but for whatever reason it looks to be more rewarding and I should have done this from the very beginning.
Hi Carlos, I just read your comment and this one hit home for me. I'm doing exactly what you are planning, but not a big jump from office to blue collar exactly. I've spent the last 15 years working in corporate media as a videomixer, streamingtechnician etc, half office work, half being out and filming people. But always in a corporate 9-5 setting. I've always enjoyed building things and have renovated my home and helped in friends' houses over the past few years. Slowly I've been doing bigger projects and started charging people for my time. Currently 30% of my time and business is spent in blue collar cabinet building, renovations and fixing stuff and 70% is still the corporate video stuff. Just lie the video said I'm taking little steps, or little jumps from one to the other.
The reason I'm saying all this is to encourage you to do exactly what you are planning, (I'm 37 as well) but maybe not take one big jump from office to another gig. If you choose the wrong job for you, you might quit and think it was a mistake. Try, if it is possible to start doing something practical on the side. repairs, building stuff, carpenttry, whatever you particular skill or interest is. and see if you can build traction slowly. Once the thing picks up speed, you can jump in with both feet. That seems to be my trajectory at the moment, maybe I stay on the 50-50 zone for a few years or go full time. Time will tell, but I do feel a LOT better now that I have a hands on practical job that earns me a bit of income.
good luck to you and I hope it works out man, go for it!!!!!
“He who works with his hand head and heart is an ARTIST!” Is an artist. Thank you! Yes!!!
What a legend, just straight up genuine and well deserved
An inspirational case of life.
work smarter for your dream, doing what do you really love and never quit.
God bless you Sr. Mr Janesky.
So much value from these videos, thanks Noah. Loved the reason why he pays well - people want to stay, they get really good at their jobs, and then less problems come to you as the CEO because you enabled them to solve problems for you.
Just started an apprenticeship program in July for Commercial HVAC. There are so many gems in this video, thanks so much for sharing!
