this video is an opinion and in no way should be construed as statements of fact. scams, bad business opportunities, and fake gurus are subjective terms that mean different things to different people. I think someone who promises $100K/month for an upfront fee of $2K is a scam. Others would call it a Napolean Hill pitch. - Розваги
This guy: 9-5 jobs are a scam.
Me, working an 8-4 job: Phew, dodged a bullet there!
Lmao..same!!
7-3 is better
7-15 here so im good
@@General_Classic Same. Glad we avoided those dodgy 9-5s
Mine is 11 to 8. It's neither here nor there
I’ve always wondered if these gurus realise that if everyone quits their 9-5 job, there wouldn’t be a stock market to trade in in the first place.
😂😂
@@LegendsUniverse True but if everybody quits their 9-5 jobs that would have some serious negative repercussions on the foreign exchange mkt too
@@LegendsUniverse potato, potahto
I've always wondered if people realize that day trading isn't the only way to quit your 9-5.
@@LegendsUniverse Hi verified person.
Whenever I hear "dropped out of college" when it comes to success, I always assume they dropped out because something they worked on took off, not that they dropped out with nothing in mind
Duh
Exactly. Like yes, some successful people are college drop outs and some people never even go to college, but they all still do something. They don't just leave college and then wake up the next morning to a random 10 million dollars appearing in their bank account magically.
I can't tell you how many conversation I've had don't truly understand the concept of you don't need college to succeed. Many really think they just suddenly become "successful" without any type of education or personal success. Have a younger relative telling me he can own a construction company without college yet doesn't know carpentry or that industry let alone owning a business.
THIS is what no one thinks about in my opinion.
@@crypticutopia7228its possible to get rich because I have a cousin who is a millionare but it took him years there is no such things as quick money
Do people not realize that before the 9-5 schedule, people were working 12-16 hour days with only Sundays off at a factory?
But people need 2 9-5 jobs just to pay rent meanwhile one job back then would be enough to buy 5 houses.
@@kaeji_namitsua Couldn’t even enjoy your house back then, you were basically living at the job. Quit making it sound like everything is worse.
@@kaeji_namitsua … Not even close XD
I work those hours still here in the fishing industry. No days off
I mean he's somewhat correct in that no 9-5 jobs are gonna make you rich. Most profitable jobs, like quant traders, SW engineers at top Silicon Valley companies, and wall st. analyst work way more than that. 9-5 is a scam indeed, but you need to work more not less.
Dude worked 2 months in retail and proceeds to generalize that experience to all occupations. Genius.
LOL. So true. He can't grasp that there are people who are making multiple 6-figure working 9-5.
@@lol6434 I remember watching saggy C on big brother and thinking how unlikeable he was , mainly because he proposed to a girl after 3 weeks . He’s even more unlikeable now and a scammer 😂

Swaggy isn't a scammer though, am in his course and am only 30% through it and he's teaching me alott!!!
As a healthcare professional, i just don't even understand this narrative. I get that you don't need college to be successful, but if my doctor or nurse wasn't at least making Bs in school.... I could never trust them.
Don't come to Canada where most of my nursing classmates barely got C's lol
@@thezeddy yeah, Canada is a bit rough with grading compared to the states, haha.
@@thepurplepanda4 yeah if you make below 75 in anything you can't graduate. Even if it's a breeze of a course like communications . Which in my province every class including trades needed to take. It's essentially how to make a resume and how to not be a dick in the work force 101....to put it into perspective I graduated with a 3.5 GPA/ 90% average. I was the top of my class and we started with 40 classmates and finished with maybe 12
@@thezeddy Honestly I don't trust test scorings either. There's a lot of people who are academically smart, but when they get put in a real life situation where they have to apply the stuff they learned, they draw a blank.
As long as people got through college, I'd say that's enough to AT LEAST trust them to know what they're doing.
College degrees aren't a good measure of competency/intelligence
Swag dont realize that the cap he wears, his shirt, his hair cut, bath products, the chair he sits on, his house paint, his camera, his pc, the ppl who bread dogs, his lawyer, his dentist etc etc, all is possible thanks to people with 9 to 5 jobs.
The people making his pc and camera definitely dont have a 9 to 5. They have a 12-12.
These people always seem to miss the point of why they actually dropped out of college... It's because they had inovative business idea and didn't have time to attend college and pursue their dreams at the same time. These successfull college drop-outs didn't drop out because they were like "Yeah I guess I'll play a little currency exchange and I'll be millionaire in two weeks!"
Plus they dropped out of ivey league schools such as Harvard lol
And they have access to capital. They didn't buy a mower to mow lawns, they partnered with capital and hired twenty employees on day one.
I like the conspiracy idea that someone put them as the heads of those companies but someone or something is controlling the worlds biggest companies from the shadows.
@@cfamick lol what
plus they are generally quite socially awkward people who didn't get on with being in college with lots of other people.
“Where people say they’re going to pay you then they pay you?” MASSIVE SCAM

You can smell these kinds of people miles, when you grew up with them.
I know guys i onced called friends that worked one or two jobs and spend their time hustling scams or trying to get rich quick.
30 year olds with no job, child support, and constantly borrowing money to live a flashy life and claim to know everything that is wrong with the way we work and make money.
Damn You Just Described Someone I Know
"I dont know why people work 9-5 Jobs"
ME: To make money, I have a soul and couldn't scam people to make a living.
This is so true. How do these people sleep at night knowing they are scamming people?
You do realize the options aren't only 'job or scam', right? lol
There are ways to not work 9 to 5 and not scam people and still live a good life
@@omarfarique6304 if you met a hacker,they will make that scammer miserable
@@LavishPatchKid like what I honestly hate 9-5 but don't have another choice
“I’m certified to talk about this, I have a beautiful wife”
Lol
@BigJohn Hansome Exactly. That totally validates his point. lol!
Come on guys he also got a dog
@@zhengli6619 tbh he treats his wife like a pet in most videos. She looks like typical gold digger.
That he met on a reality TV show and proposed to after knowing for like... 6 weeks.
Also, out of that 20% of 30-millionaires with no college, I bet most of them still were attending elite universities before dropping out
really it makes since that their would be about 20%. there all baby boomers and boomer have on avg 5 siblings. 1/5 rich kids were a "living in the pool house until 40 type". and their parents still set them up. mix in a few outliers and 15-25% would easily make sense. people tend to be about the same regardless of money. money amplifies what's already there. so 500 million net worth people with 3-8 kids still have 1 that will be a 30-m as a participation trophy.
Or they're professional athletes.
@@gusbamanabio2522 shaq,jordan and 99% of nbl players who are guided by financial advisors are millionaires. Even outside of America every country has one huge athlete who has huge business empires.
A lot of them inherited the money.
@@gusbamanabio2522 There are way more millionaires than pro athletes. It's not even close to the most common way people get rich. They are by far outdone by people who were simply born rich.

Shoutout to Robert kiyosaki for making a career out of about 3 paragraphs worth of information regurgitated in a million different ways
All of his books are the same stories
I've read his first book in one seating because it's so entertaining. This was around 10 years ago. His next books are really just the same story regurgitated.
@@phoenix5054 It was entertaining when I was 20 and never had thought about money, and growing up around NYC, the thought of not spending loads of money on my image and over-paying on rent was a new thought to me. However, as a 40 yo, I am not getting anything from the book.
Hey whats the main content of the book? I was about to buy his book but that thing so much to read.
Many years ago.i read one of Robert's books because it was free to checkout at he library. Pages and pages that could have condensed into a few paragraphs.
Apple Engineers that designed the mac laptop he is using, that work 9-5: 😨😨

@@NaudVanDalen yep SWE at Apple probably 250k +
well, maybe 10 or 11 to 7 or 9 knowing how things go in Silicon Valley... but yes, they work a job and get paid on a regular schedule
They actually work like 12 to 12. And more so now where everyone is wfh.
IKR. This guy also don’t realize that a lot of business were started by Engineers that had a 9-5 job
_”9 to 5 jobs are a scam!”_
Oh thank goodness, fortunately I only have one job.
Took me a moment to get it 😂.
Nah I don't agree.....how is that possible
Obviously college isn’t a scam, but the price of admission is most definitely a scam.
I can tell you that's not happening in Europe
depends what and where you study. Mine was more of an interruption in me becoming competent in programming. And when i think about getting forced to learn spanish as an english culture and language major, or being forced to learn european union law as a IT major... yeah. Hard to not call those subjects a scam.
Only in America. They’re the only place that rips you off with student debt.
afaik the high cost of studying in the US only got into such a big problem when student debt started to get treaded differently, making it hard to get rid off with bankruptcy, otherwise the high rate of defaults would should eventually bite back the universities in one way or another if prices get too high
@@mac19999x I wanted to get into IT and got taught other subjects that aren't IT and I'm certainly not mad about it in hindsight. Being only taught in exactly the thing you want to pursue a career in makes you kind of blind, even in that job itself. Like in your case you probably shouldnt be ignorant of union law and in IT it is often helpful to know other natural languages because it is quite an international field.
So if everyone just stops buying this guy’s course he will also need to get a 9-5 to pay his bills...
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Nah he'll just continue trading
lol. He can just trade.
As a trader myself, I can see instantly few minutes in his videos that he knows his thing very well.
Not a 9-5 drone like you and the rest of Coffeezillas troll bozo army. Just keep doing the menial things you do without finding ways to improve

This guy: "YOURE A WAGE SLAVE REEEE"

Swag Academy: "IM a ForEX GuRU, LoOk At mY LaMBo"
As a doctor, I can tell you we are wage slaves, at least outside of the US. Look up what's happening to doctors in the UK right now. 35% pay cut over the last twenty years. Most doctors having to work extra hours to make ends meet.
😂
Right-wingers in the UK work hard to defund the NHS, this is why the UK has difficulty
Man this guy who worked 2 months at JC Penny’s sure knows the struggle of getting a degree, climbing the corporate ladder and getting raises/promotions. I better get his forex class.
Do these people not realise.. If people quit normal jobs.. the society as we know will literally collapse..
Thank u someone who knows how important logistics is👏👏👏🙏🙏🙏💯💯💯
Wrong, companies will be incentivised to not exploit workers and stop giving them 0.1 percent of their profits.
You say that like it's a bad thing
Society can collapse either way some people work at jobs but the economy can still not be in good shape I really think there should be a change in the job system. I think some people would probably take more jobs that require no experience that offer health care and benefits the job is remote where you don’t deal with many people it’s not all positive dealing with many people it’s why jobs end up toxic or the person picks up the work from the company and just finish it where ever they stay at. The company could also send the work to where you live but we can only hope more new better jobs arrive these are some reasons but there are many others. If many 9-5 jobs can be enjoyable it would be like watching a movie I think many of us don’t like the 9 to 5 grind.
Once the dude said he had a dog, I was completely sold to joining his academy. That validates everything and doesn’t require anymore research to know if he’s legit.
I hate the whole “lifestyle” flex. People really be wanting shit they don’t even want. I love animals but a dog isn’t really aiming very high. Like, at least a parrot or something exotic. I’m not impressed by a dog. 😂😂😂 now if you said I have a dolphin I might think twice.

So if you need a Physical Therapist or a doctor or a nurse, lawyer, guess what..those are considered 9-5 jobs. If your pipes burst and you need a plumber although they work around the clock that is a traditional job. Do these people understand how ridiculous they sound? College is expensive and not for everyone but people are needed in all types of professions and that is ok
God forbid we get invaded. The military is primarily a 9-5 job (If you wanna count PT it'd be 6-8 with an hour break), so who'd defend us? XD
Literally this…literally lol. What about grocery stores, movie theaters, teachers, hospitals…..we can’t all be day traders lol
Indeed. What about all those people unglamorously keeping the *real* economy functioning, day in, day out? Suckers, apparently, according to the JC Penny guru. Ummmm.... Maybe he actually couldn't hack it at JC Penny?
Well many physical therapists, doctors, and plumbers are small businesses rather than employees so I think they are not exactly 9-5. Nurses work 12 hour shifts and honestly I do think nurses might be getting scammed considering the crap they put up with compared to what they are paid. Not to say there aren't good examples of 9-5 jobs. I'm a software engineer and that's a 9-5 job and good luck getting your online courses published onto the internet if all the software people device to become forex traders instead.

It used to be generally accepted that education gives you a better chance at advancing in your career. The fact that so many people are ready to believe the opposite is very sad and says a lot about how education is either failing or not reaching some people.
An education in what field though? A large portion of peoppe go to college to study a Bachelor's in Art, English and Biology and don't get anywhere with it.
@@FernandoMartinez-pv1id doesn't matter. The foundation you build carries on to othet areas
@cane sugar if that were true, we wouldn't have a Country where 38% of College Graduates don't work in a field they got their degree in and 62% of them are crippled with student loan debt they have no hope in paying back. There's no structure learned in a useless degree.
@@FernandoMartinez-pv1id your comment is the exact reason why higher education is important. The structure learned is in the entire process and not weather you use the degree or not. Not using your degree doesn't equate to being a failure.
Education is hard work as well!
You know what actually is a scam when it comes to workplaces? Zero hour work contracts. You're expexted to work long hours with little pay without any of the benefits or stability that makes a 9-5 appealing.
What do you mean zero hour contract what is that???
@@mitchweber7868 Is a type of contract between and employer and worker according to which the employer is not obliged to provide any minimun working hours and the worker is not obliged to accept any work offered.
Oh man sounds like when I used to work at a shop and I was a lube tech there and got paid hourly, but my manager offered me extra hours and instead of paying me regular overtime he paid me flat right hours like a real mechanic, and I came out way underpaid. So I put out a case against him to the department of workforce services.
Don't know if that's the same scenario you speak about or not
Or they say it's a 9-5 but everyone, including the boss, comes in at 8 and leaves at 6 or 7pm
Sometimes they can be rubbish but sometimes they are perfect. It’s not that zero hours contracts are scams but how they are used. At my place there’s a few people who literally want to work maybe 6-20 hours a week who insist on zero hours contracts because some months they don’t want to work. Being forced onto one is wrong but I’m these cases they actually kicked up a fuss to be on zero hours so they could make sure they don’t have to work during school holidays so they can take care of their kids. I totally agree they are more often than not used in a scammy way but I think we’ve got to the point where we are told something is a scam and but it’s actually more how the companies are using it that makes it a scam or not
Entrepreneurs can’t exist without employees that work 9-5’s

You’re bugging swaggy c ..legit became a millionaire off of forex ..no mlm no get rich quick scheme just strictly discipline and trading
The journey of people attempting to be a millionaire is lining the pockets of scammers everyday.
I wonder if the reason a few of these billionaires dropped out of college was because they had already an immediate opportunity that was of extreme value essentially forcing them to choose what to prioritize. This is not the same as saying drop out of college to become a billionaire.
true... zuck was raising millions of dollars and still planning on going back to school lol his investors had to convince him not to go back
These types of “entrepreneurs” don’t understand that some people genuinely enjoy traditional education and have goals in life that require schooling. There’s no right or wrong way, just do what you actually enjoy and figure out what you need to do in order to get there.
Exactly. And they don't understand if no one went to medical school there would be nobody to take care of you at the hospital. Smh

The millionaires who dropped out already had substantially growing businesses...
and already got into valid universitys in the first place
exactly, they already have a direction in life. To just tell someone who doesn't have any direction in life to drop out of college and they can become that millionaire is just outright dangerous
And money to begin with. Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Marc Zuckerberg… they all come from wealth. Which means, they got a pretty cushy safety net in case their business gamble failed. Most people don’t have that, so trying out risky business ideas is way harder
Also Bill Gates wanted to work with computers, which were still new enough there weren't any super great programs at colleges.
And came from rich parents.

When someone says those who have spent their life on this stuff are wrong, or suckers, it's almost certainly because they want to galvanise your biases or fears and get you to follow them instead. Be careful, it leads nowhere: Trust science. Follow your passion. Get educated.

Doesn't every entrepreneur intend to grow their business and HIRE employees?? If everyone worked for themselves with no employees, how the hell would we have the computer systems and networks that we use, the cars we drive, the airplanes that we fly in and the freaking food that we eat?? I'm an entrepreneur but I know that 9-5s are absolutely necessary. They just aren't for everyone.
Think of it as an ecosystem. We need the producers that produce things that we eat, etc. Not just some people that trade them. And of course we need people like doctors and soldiers to ensure a working order and those are considered 9-5.
you're thinking of 'traditional' 'classic' entrepreneurs. new school just gets the money direct, you tell people to send you money and that's about it. employees will only squeal on you to 'zilla and stuff, you don't need them.
@@lasskinn474well still need 9-5 people to build roads, houses, clean and do other stuff
College in the US is a scam, too expensive, why tou think they almost always advertise the "college life" and not their succeses or their labs or whatever. My major was bit over ~2,000 USD and I'm pretty sure that -theory knowledge wise- I'm on the same page as someone who spent 60k per semester
I lost my buddy shar-pei Mo in 2020 and seeing yours brought tears in my eyes. Yours is lovely too!
The best advise I ever got on college was from my community college’s academic/career advisor: “figure out where you want to be, figure out the steps it takes to get there, then follow those steps and not get distracted with other things.” So if you’re goal involves trade school, then do that instead of an Ivy League. If it is about experience only, then intern or apprentice instead of college. But if you want a career that normally requires a certain level of college, then do that amount of college. Generally not PhD.
I want to make anime.
Cool but, I doubt anyone has ever decided between an Ivy league school and trade school. Usually you decide between university and trade school and if you do decide to go to university and end up doing well enough to get a scholarship to an Ivy league school, then you do that. Otherwise you end up at whatever university is nearby that you can afford to attend. If you can afford an Ivy League education and are paired for it (through lifelong tutoring) then your parents damn sure aren't going to let you throw away their investment in you by letting you go to trade school.
This right here. This is how it's done.
I was a young kid and my town got WRECKED in the financial crisis back in 2008. I wanted to be one of the guys that looks into corporate fraud. My family didn't have the money to afford school so I joined the army. Did my hitch, and meanwhile planned the next steps. So, I needed an accounting or finance degree, then experience as an auditor so started interning there. Still in the auditor phase and it's so far a good gig. I work 9-5 being a fact-checker on other people's financial data. Good experience and still chasing that dream. No regrets.
@@losfromla1480 no point forcing him to go to an ivy league if he doesn't wanna do it no point wasting all that time and years off his life
Really good advise. I wish I got that advice when I was in High School. I wanted to work in animation and in retrospect it seems obvious, go to an art school but being a teen in high school, my goal was to go to a University. The fancier, the better. Maybe I wasnt paying attention at that age, but I think schools can do a better job at helping students decide their path.
Love to hear coffee is a fellow Aggie!!
When someone tells you that your normal job is a scam, they’re probably about to pitch you an actual scam lol
Here is the thing: If you actually did something in college, then its worth it. Skipping classes, drinking on a tuesday night, copy hws from other people the night before its due... rush to get projects done and not even give a shit about it.... I mean lot of people do that.
What really matters is what major you choose and as you say, you've got to do the work. A degree in some humanities field or art isn't really going to get you anywhere other than maybe being a teacher.
People think they collect their social/ecocnomic benefits because of learning and knowledge. Or in worst case because of connections.
But recent(and not so) studies came to different conclusion.
Almost all benefits come with degree. Higher education is not wealth generation mechanism, it's wealth redustribution through so called signalling. Degree is signal that distribute wealth on highly competitive labor market. It doesn't matter if you fake degree, or get it by learning hard, you get all benefits by stealing wealth from people without degree.
Why we see slower economy growth and salaries stagnation while there is more higher educated people than ever? Because they don't produce welath.
Thats how it works.
@@Acid31337 the problem with what you're saying is that the economy (as measured by the stock market) and national GDP has been rising, so that's already a correction to what you stated. Also very important is that due to tax structure, trade policies that disregard local labor in favor of multinational corporate benefits and the resulting weakening of labor's power to negotiate, wealth has stagnated by concentrating at the top. The wealth transfer you speak of, doesn't really exist. What you're implying is that a burger flipper at some fast food franchise outlet should be making as much as a factory worker in Detroit should be making. Or that a person who dropped out of high school as much as an electrical engineer, clearly improbable. No, the market pays what you're worth and the differentiator of that is your degree.
@@Acid31337 Almost everyone I knew transitioned doing something completely unrelated to their degrees, and end up getting business. Some did good and some went back to a job cuz they lack the focus.
Yeah if you're not using your time then you should really just drop it

Anybody who trades will at least have an idea what day or the week it is.
his idea of time is either in H1, H3, M15. The concept of days is irrelevant to him.
Try his strategy and you'll see if he's a trader or not.

He makes the assumption that everyone should be or even wants to be a millionaire, and he also makes the assumption that anyone can become an entrepreneur. Both are not true. This is actually "first-world" hubris. Most people in developing countries would sell a kidney just to have a 9-5 job that they can actually live and raise a family on.
Yeah, i know some famous youtubers who would like to experience a 9-5
Lol when everyone is a millionaire then it just means millionaires are the new poor.
@@FlyingKoreanMinja it already is just look how expensive everything is becoming
I'm in a first world country and I want a 9-5 job Mon-Fri that I'm able to raise a family on. Right now I'm working 3am-2pm shifts 5-6 days a week.
Everyone wants to be a millionaire,
You might not wanna keep a million,
But if I handed you a million you’d take it, why do people act like you couldn’t just spend the money. Either on yourself, or into different charities
"Hi, I'm looking to have an electrician come out to fix my meter box. Do you have anyone available today?"

Imagine a world without 9-5 jobs , we might as well just go back to hunting and gathering
Yeah, some people have to be the slaves while some enjoy freedom and tons of wealth
in that case hunting would be a 9 - 5 lol you cant escape it

I think we can all agree that saying "College is a SCAM" is the most high-scool dropout working at 7Eleven thing to say.
College/uni is a scam UNLESS you cannot get into the line of work you want to get into any other way. Tuition is fucking insane.
I’m a chemistry/science teacher and the only scam about my 9-5 job is how much money I make - other then that it’s pretty rewarding career and I can’t imagine doing anything else

Cant really blame the guy who's only knowledge of 9-5s was 2 months working at a JC Penney
@@pedrosilvamusician Yeah, and many people are content with "boring" office work. At the end of the day, I think it comes down to this: if you don't enjoy your job, it's crap regardless of what it is. And vice versa. 9-to-5's can be hell on Earth, but so can freelance work or "trading". It all depends on who you are and what you want with your life.

Potentially successful people drop out of college because they have specific leverage and they already have something going.
They're not successful BECAUSE they dropped out, they're successful because they're smart. But these guys make it seem like dropping out is what makes you successful, which is the most boring & dangerous correlation =/= causation situation. Don't drop out just because you're lazy, it's a dumb move.

Obviously “some” dropouts will be successful (though they still need to learn and be educated somehow) but if you look at the big picture most educated people do well in comparison to dropouts
Let me correct that statement for you:
People with a college degree do economically better than college dropouts ON AVERAGE
This whole discussion is based upon semantics and wrong statistics, black dude was really wrong with some of his statements, but this guy coffezilla wasn't totally right either, he showing selectively manipulated statistics trying to debunk the other guy.
The reality is that a college degree is just a license, it doesn't necessarily teach you something that makes you money.
well dont confuse education with. college/degrees.... thats the error everyone is doing.... I am educated but dont finished my uni ! I dropped out cuzI relized that I wasted 500$ tuition per month and the time... rather I started freelancing and learning more thinks I really want.... I started trading later on and now I am about to found my first company .... so education != college/degree
