It depends on what you define as adulthood. If you're 25 and have little responsibility, such as no wife or kids, you have the freedom to grow and change even if it feels too late
07:14 I want to add for kids watching this. Even if you fail most things in school, you can still make it. Most important thing in life is figuring out what you want, and enjoy it - then come success.
@@PepsiFuture I am not so sure about that. There are ofc many factors to this, and one would also need to define "success". Is it making the most money, top 1%, or is a great life/ work balance with a decent pay vs. effort etc. Many many factors. I am obv. not saying ignore school and doing so might put a chip on your shoulder for the rest of your life... self worth etc. But a lot of time spent in school is BS.
Wish my parents and school had known this. Was really good (top 3 in my class) at math growing up. Once I started to passively give more effort there than English and got some poor English grades, the way my teachers and especially my parents reacted, just made mw shut down and made me stop trying at everything, even Math. Didn’t care about anything academic related until I took Chemistry and that reignited the fire, but by then it was too late. I had fallen behind nearly everyone in math by that point. When I got that bad grade it was like, no video games, no phone, no seeing friends, threats of withdrawing the “help” I was already getting, it was not good. Threatening kids into conformity is probably not a great way to go about things.
I feel like a lot of schools really fail to connect with students and get them to actively engage in learning, this was the case for myself. Learning should be fun and playful, maybe even borderline obsessive, considering we learn something everyday. I cant imagine the exponential impact of effectively adjusting our traditional methods of schooling. To teach people how to learn, and how to think critically, I can only dream.
i think the fact that Destiny had some real rough actual jobs when he was younger, AND used to be a conservative/libertarian makes me give his takes a lot more weight. He wasn't born into privilege and given the right opinions to have like a lot of leftists today, he had to work hard to come to his own understanding of the world. Makes me feel like i can trust his words more.
Nah, he’s still disillusioned. You can work those rough jobs and still have privilege. As someone who grew up poor AND had to work those jobs, I can tell you that enough people who are well off end up working them.
I wouldn't say either side has all the right opinions. That's one of the tradeoffs of a two party system that deals with 330 million people at the federal level. Frankly, I'd vote for whatever candidate / party could come up with a decent plan for affordable housing and make it attainable for single people, but for some reason that doesn't seem high on the platform even though that's the real high monthly cost to most people.
I think its good when you see both privileged and not, together. If it was only poor people then it could look like its just anger/revenge/jealousy. Privileged people pointing it out is like damn the system is so abhorrent even people who benefit from it think its gross.
Orrrrrr....that he's a dimwit that was going nowhere so he turned into a cheerleader for the latest thing. Does this guy have an original or interesting idea about ANYTHING?
Music yes to some extent read the best stuff on theory, but most important listen to LOTS of different Music. If you like a certain genre listen to others as well and take ideas and import them into the genre you love and take it to new spaces
Does Lex not understand that hate is a real thing? You can't love everything. Am i supposed to feel love to the teachers that accused me of drug use and my parents of incest when i was 13 because i sucked at school since i was autistic and they didn't understand?
Doubt. You can be a victim but I have major speculation and doubt on this story. My brothers autistic and no teacher has ever once judged him and if they do they would be immediately fired. You must have smelled like weed. The point you made was shit. Hate is a real thing but you can stay nuetral and learn to get better instead of builting pent up hate
@@trash6960 Are you retarded? The teachers didnt understand i was autistic. Your brothers autistic and no teacher judged him so you believe thats how the world works everywhere? You don't even know in what country or in what decade i grew up.
I graduated highschool this year and have started at college. I can’t do this, I just can’t keep going to school it’s not for me. But I have 0 idea what to do. Thinking back to all the time I wasted in highschool and beating myself up over not trying just a little harder. Thinking about joining the military or something I have no idea what else to do
Well I did the marine corps outta HS in 2008. Did my 4 years and got out and it put me at a huge advantage. No debt, and you can use your GI bill for college or a trade school or save it. Among other benefits and having a built in work ethic, I think the armed forces is a great foundation. Hell, do the Air Force, it’s easier than most construction jobs! I’m 32 now and my life has been very solid. Also… don’t marry young, and do NOT knock anyone up
He sure does. I've seen lots of clips from Lex's podcast with other guests and he's never gone this hard repeatedly on a guest before, at least not that I've seen. Very interesting.
I disagree with destiny on pretty much everything..... But I kinda like him still. The defense of any position the far left has blows my mind. I can agree with some things from every other political affiliation, besides the far left. Liberals, conservatives, libertarians,moderates, etc. Not the far left. A big reason I can't agree is that they are mostly unwilling to have a calm conversation with someone who disagrees with them (even though their ideas are extreme in almost every category).. That's why I appreciate destiny. I don't agree with him, but he's atleast calm, rational, and willing to have a civil debate.
@@maxpowers4436 the ones I watch typically are cool calm and collected. It's not just conservatives and libertarians though. I basically listen to all my political perspectives. Except the far left. I can agree with every other political group. But... When the left is pushing vax mandates, mask mandates, transitioning kids, male to female transitions in female sports, late term abortions etc. Not only do they have radical ideas, they also condemn those who disagree (atleast the main stream left anyway).
@@maxpowers4436 Compared to far leftists? Absolutely. Most of cancel culture is done by the left. Most political violence in this country is left wing. But to be fair, this makes perfect sense. Authoritarians tend to be violent after all.
I have mixed feelings about Destiny. Clips like these make me respect him, but like the clip lex uploaded of him talking about JRE makes me lose that respect. I guess like Lex says, it's good to see the best in people and despite me not liking his political views, I can say he is a great debater and always open to talking to people with different points of view. He represents the best and the smartest of political media from the left-wing side.
Well, people aren't usually one-dimensionally good or bad. Destiny, like every single human being that ever existed, has his strengths and his weaknesses, is knowledgeable on some areas and not on others, has good ideas and not so good ideas. We tend to categorize people (and things in general) into boxes of "I like them" or "I dislike them", but that misses the massive gray area of complexity of all individuals.
Agree. I discovered him through this interview and decided to watch one of his videos. He was swearing at someone in his chat. Launching all kinds of insults in a very distasteful manner. I understand people have layers to them but that kind of behavior isn't for me. Lex's comment about him having a love/hate relationship with hate made much more sense after seeing him on his own. Like with any new show I watch, I'll watch more than one episode before I truly form an opinion and decide if it's worth my time. But seeing the other side of him on his own stream compared to this interview left a lot to be desired.
Fuck that, it’s already to difficult to study for average people without more rules and requirement layer on top. People should study their own way, not based on some perfectionistic standard that another person creates and tries to impose on others.
@@grenouillesscent Mate there wouldn't be mandatory rules lol. Plus there's psychological facts like repitition being a key driver in learning & remembering that are simply true, whether you like it or not, and teaching kids those facts would be incredible.. I know so many bright kids who crashed and burned after high school because it was piss easy for them, so they just wouldn't do anything for exams and still be fine. Afterwards, in uni you suddenly HAD to know how to study during the semester or you'd be gone real soon
he might have hit a new low but destiny is more based with every year i agree on a lot of issues with him hopefully he doesn't do another open relationship .
I find it funny that Destiny pushes people to go to college and get a job. While it obviously didn't even work for him and he chose his own path in the end. Although I do understanding where he's coming from
I like that he acknowledges he’s lucky he prepared blindly for something that was very unknown. School isn’t perfect, but I do feel it helped me in many ways
When "the wave function collapses"...Meh...do not conflated this although it seems easy... Kids...we want the best for kids and everyone will actually help...
I disagree. He said that in his case, opportunity met preparation yet the preparation was playing video games, aka none preparation. He’s a broken clock that shows accidentally the right time.
@@d.h.1999 thats fucking true. What preparation did he make? none. Right place right time kinda thing. Life is unfair like that, you can be doing fuck all and get rich and succesful by pure coincidence.
@@thomaskoukouris4070 If you notice, every single fucking successful person had no 'plan' to get there. They took advantage of opportunities and things worked out. Life is way too complicated for exact plans.
@@batboy5023 100% you can direct your life for sure but what happens then is up to life itself. If you work all the time and are super ambitious though the chances are highly in your favour.
My ass was high asf all 4 years of high-school and I barley graduated with a 1.8 GPA … Idek what 2 do but I wish I would’ve tried harder in highschool. I’m 19 I graduated last year so
I tried to listen to the audio only of this interview. One of the rare times when I was eager for the guest to stop rambling and preferred to hear what Lex had to say.
His lowest point was probably like 3 days ago when his own friend(obvious snake btw) betrayed him and was trying to #MeToo him by contacting a ton of his female friends(females in his discord server too) to see if they had sex with him and find out if he treated them badly after a streamer expressed that she felt like Destiny just invites girls into his stream, have sex with them, then do a 180° and shit on them for content. That day Destiny is going on several redfaced rants on 1.75x speed trying to defend himself. The worst part is that his wife had to join in, live on twitch, to do damage control lmao
@@FearlessP4P1 id rather be universally hated with like 3 friends and a family with millions of dollars than make 25k a year and be a face in the crowd.
Let this be a lesson to dads. Make sure you instill hardwork and keep them off videogames. Otherwise there only option in life will be a very small chance of being an online sophist that appeals and makes money off of deadbeat/aimless gamers.
I kept waiting to hear something tragic. I guess he's one of those guys whose life tragedy is "I once worked a job I didn't like" or "that one hot girl at school rejected me." Other people's low points would be the peak of my life.
Dude. He literally had to mop after hours at his high school what are you talking about. It's like going to a factory and going "ye you soy fucks that's what it's like to struggle" like ye dude they know.
@@fatnose0 you offended for me calling him a soy boy? lol. bro I did roofing at 18 in Florida. Mopping is what old ladies do. Im making fun of him because he shys from hard work and crys about it. Something tells me you do too. You tell a lot about a mans soft ass hands lol
@@SudoJay if the question is "what was your lowest point", then mopping is quite literally what's required of you to answer the question. Imagine getting asked "When were you at your lowest" and going "haha nice try pussy only ladies are sad and I'm a manly man with manly hands" and then thinking you don't look clinically insecure. Also fun fact but whichever political commentator you prefer would give a 20 times more privileged answer than this. It seems very crab like to insult people who started working class but got out but not every other person on the scene with a background living in a mansion and getting a TV job at 19 out of connections.
@@fatnose0 its okay. All people hinding anonymously talking about others say a lot about you. lol we call it npc talk. I just laugh when I hear whiny privileged white people crying. I find it amusing. If that bothers you, then do something about it. White knighting the soy community is so funny to me lol
@@fatnose0 Bro Theres no point for this conversion for he will forever be a whiny twat. All you did was let me know that bothers you. People who have real life stuggles will always laugh at whiny privilege white "men" crying about how hard their life is/was then state some silly example of what hard work is. Its funny to the working class. weird that bothers you 🤔🤣
Thet sounds like the kind of job I'd look back fondly on as the period where I got 10 hours pay for 3 hours of work and probably spent the other 7 hours getting paid to smoke pot in the van.
Destiny really is an Bullshit Artist. He presented his supposedly deep advice that Highschool students should learn a wee bit more, as an controversial view one might disagree with. Really amazing.
@Daniel Mask He proposed his advice with the remark that Lex might disagree with it while it is a completely trivial and obvious observation. Yes, people who study benefit from doing it more. That’s as trivial as it can get.
I think his point was that most of the so-called Crypto-Bros be was referencing would disagree that you should “try a little bit harder”, and instead push yourself to the extreme to be a winner and successful. In other words just try to better yourself incrementally and don’t kill yourself trying to be David Goggins running up and down mountains and free-diving to catch sharks by hand n shit...
Lmao that's his lowest point? It's ridiculous how privileged people are on the west, only if he was born on a third world country he would actually understand real struggle.
I don't get why it's hard to understand he's not saying work was hard on him but the fact he had no future and no upward mobility his life was headed nowhere
@@TheNietzschian the mediocre would, this guy is a perfect example. If you revel in mediocrity you attract the unremarkable. A talented, persistent achiever would succeed in any field….internet or worldwide. Have something to say and the world will beat a path to your door. Hide in your basement and attract other losers and you can be an influencer on the internet…simply because the modern age produces a lot of losers. Corporations and Hollywood will even underwrite you. Substance takes fortitude and balls…this jerkoff has neither.

By the time you reach adulthood 99 percent of the advice you get requires a time machine.
10/10
Brutal truth.
Damn why’d you have to go so hard 😮💨
It depends on what you define as adulthood. If you're 25 and have little responsibility, such as no wife or kids, you have the freedom to grow and change even if it feels too late
@@brynleyjones3635 ppl won't tell you that tho hahaha

Idk man im 20 in uni. Keep getting shit grades. Already feels like its too late at this point
@@ferd31 life hasn’t even started at 20 man, nothing stopping you from changing. at all and any time you can change.
I like his Advice. 13 to 18 year olds man Study and do your ECAs correctly. This 5 years will determine your life path.
The best advice is the chapter “Habit” in William James’s “Talks to Teachers.”
I used to be a carpet cleaner, specifically steam cleaner, and it was the most depressed I had ever been
I feel like a lot of schools really fail to connect with students and get them to actively engage in learning, this was the case for myself.

Lex's ability to have quality dialogues with a wide range of individuals is second to none.
Rogan
Zelenskyy
Bakuzan
Waldorf
He’s not even top 5
So happy I found this interview
i was on the fence ab destiny till he told the story ab moving the carpet cleaning time to play more starcraft, much love, and laughed my ass off
I read a book not too long ago, and it showed me a side of myself that I don’t think so would’ve seen otherwise, it was “Destiny is a girls name”
Amazing
No it's a stripper's name.
Crazy how old that picture of him is in the thumbnail and he looks younger now.
5:00 Can we get a list of drugs he did? For the study of science of course ..
6:05 so its more like it was destiny
Music yes to some extent read the best stuff on theory, but most important listen to LOTS of different Music. If you like a certain genre listen to others as well and take ideas and import them into the genre you love and take it to new spaces
Does Lex not understand that hate is a real thing? You can't love everything. Am i supposed to feel love to the teachers that accused me of drug use and my parents of incest when i was 13 because i sucked at school since i was autistic and they didn't understand?
It's a privilege of being rich and insulated from the real world
Doubt. You can be a victim but I have major speculation and doubt on this story. My brothers autistic and no teacher has ever once judged him and if they do they would be immediately fired. You must have smelled like weed. The point you made was shit. Hate is a real thing but you can stay nuetral and learn to get better instead of builting pent up hate
Yea he is abit weird like that to him every political or personal problem can be solved with a kumbaya and a wank around the camp fire.
@@trash6960 Are you retarded? The teachers didnt understand i was autistic. Your brothers autistic and no teacher judged him so you believe thats how the world works everywhere? You don't even know in what country or in what decade i grew up.

look at merchant navy
you should join an epic private militia and fight for ukraine!!
Well I did the marine corps outta HS in 2008. Did my 4 years and got out and it put me at a huge advantage. No debt, and you can use your GI bill for college or a trade school or save it. Among other benefits and having a built in work ethic, I think the armed forces is a great foundation. Hell, do the Air Force, it’s easier than most construction jobs! I’m 32 now and my life has been very solid.
Also… don’t marry young, and do NOT knock anyone up
You could try programming?
Learn a trade.
Anything, just really apply yourself.
Learn to do something really well and make yourself indispensable

Yep. And a class on how to properly manage money.

@@grenouillesscent you should learn about how people actually learn before you have an opinion about it
we'd ignore that too. the problem is that commitment to school requires a wisdom that few of us have during those years.

I like that he acknowledges he’s lucky he prepared blindly for something that was very unknown. School isn’t perfect, but I do feel it helped me in many ways
Did he say 22.50 an hour?
Thats what a McD worker get paid in scandinavia as a baseline
In 2008?
Exactly. And that's why 22.50 ain't shit in Scandinavia. Your money is worth nothing.
You get taxed to hell
"can i be in the NBA?" no, no you can't you're white and 5'5
"Forgive me pretty baby
But I always take
The long way home..."
Well, that interview was interesting.
If I had that haircut, I'd be at my lowest too.
Wow
at least he has hair. many go bald his age
$1500 biweekly after taxes is not bad though.
It's bad when you have to work 27-28 days out of the month to make that amount.

thx
His lowest point in life is when he became destiny I’m sure

Yeah and it's a girl's name too

My ass was high asf all 4 years of high-school and I barley graduated with a 1.8 GPA … Idek what 2 do but I wish I would’ve tried harder in highschool. I’m 19 I graduated last year so
Suggestion on reading: 9:13
So basically Destiny's advice to someone who is struggling is "get lucky like I did".
It's the sad truth of life.
His advice is actually unironically pull yourself up by your boot straps. He has an incredibly positive outlook on what individuals are capable of.
Where does he say that? His advice is: if youre in highschool, just work a little harder. That's verbatim the clip
Honest answer and the right answer…..life is luck from cradle to the grave
Hey, the longer you stick around, the luckier you get - pure statistics
Naming himself Destiny should be lowest point of his life.
That's a girl's name

His lowest point was probably like 3 days ago when his own friend(obvious snake btw) betrayed him and was trying to #MeToo him by contacting a ton of his female friends(females in his discord server too) to see if they had sex with him and find out if he treated them badly after a streamer expressed that she felt like Destiny just invites girls into his stream, have sex with them, then do a 180° and shit on them for content. That day Destiny is going on several redfaced rants on 1.75x speed trying to defend himself. The worst part is that his wife had to join in, live on twitch, to do damage control lmao
Naw he’s still rich and famous.
@@verybigbrain723 lil bro losing your integrity over money and fame isn’t worth it
@@FearlessP4P1 id rather be universally hated with like 3 friends and a family with millions of dollars than make 25k a year and be a face in the crowd.
@@FearlessP4P1 not that he’s universally hated now at all.
@@verybigbrain723 being hated and losing your integrity are totally different things. Even Good people are hated.
Let this be a lesson to dads. Make sure you instill hardwork and keep them off videogames. Otherwise there only option in life will be a very small chance of being an online sophist that appeals and makes money off of deadbeat/aimless gamers.
Mad?
@@Neofilmcritic That's you.
@@AQW0RIDS I mean why deny you’re mad? It’s clear from your comment and I don’t even like the guest
@@gyytgy3330 I give advice to increase the quality of life for people in the future? Namaste.
@@AQW0RIDS Sure bud, keep coping
Nice quantum to know : )
His lowest point is when he played skyrim wrong and now he thinks it's not a good game
Lots of bad takes from such a small mouth ngl.
People are allowed to not like skyrim, like every other game ever made lmao.
You should hear his food takes. Mans thinks that ranch is better than hummus.
@@admiralbright7308 no
@@xXJeReMiAhXx99 you bethesda fans are actually delusional
Lmao. Guy needs better mirrors
That's the lowest point in his life, bloody helll get over yourself.
I kept waiting to hear something tragic. I guess he's one of those guys whose life tragedy is "I once worked a job I didn't like" or "that one hot girl at school rejected me."
Other people's low points would be the peak of my life.
I’m actually surprised it’s not right this moment. anyway, says a lot about his self awareness level
Soy boy upset about working hard. Yeah bro, this is what it feels like being the working class. Welcome to the real world.
Dude. He literally had to mop after hours at his high school what are you talking about. It's like going to a factory and going "ye you soy fucks that's what it's like to struggle" like ye dude they know.
@@fatnose0 you offended for me calling him a soy boy? lol. bro I did roofing at 18 in Florida. Mopping is what old ladies do. Im making fun of him because he shys from hard work and crys about it. Something tells me you do too. You tell a lot about a mans soft ass hands lol
@@SudoJay if the question is "what was your lowest point", then mopping is quite literally what's required of you to answer the question. Imagine getting asked "When were you at your lowest" and going "haha nice try pussy only ladies are sad and I'm a manly man with manly hands" and then thinking you don't look clinically insecure.
Also fun fact but whichever political commentator you prefer would give a 20 times more privileged answer than this. It seems very crab like to insult people who started working class but got out but not every other person on the scene with a background living in a mansion and getting a TV job at 19 out of connections.
@@fatnose0 its okay. All people hinding anonymously talking about others say a lot about you. lol we call it npc talk. I just laugh when I hear whiny privileged white people crying. I find it amusing. If that bothers you, then do something about it. White knighting the soy community is so funny to me lol
@@fatnose0 Bro Theres no point for this conversion for he will forever be a whiny twat. All you did was let me know that bothers you. People who have real life stuggles will always laugh at whiny privilege white "men" crying about how hard their life is/was then state some silly example of what hard work is. Its funny to the working class. weird that bothers you 🤔🤣
If the lowest point in his life was having a carpet cleaning job, then he’s doing just fine.
did you even watch the video
@@ssssantos304 yes I did.
Thet sounds like the kind of job I'd look back fondly on as the period where I got 10 hours pay for 3 hours of work and probably spent the other 7 hours getting paid to smoke pot in the van.
Destiny really is an Bullshit Artist.
He presented his supposedly deep advice that Highschool students should learn a wee bit more, as an controversial view one might disagree with.
Really amazing.
Destiny is the exact opposite
he is not saying its controversial he is saying that most people dont do this even tho they should
@Daniel Mask
He proposed his advice with the remark that Lex might disagree with it while it is a completely trivial and obvious observation.
Yes, people who study benefit from doing it more.
That’s as trivial as it can get.
I think his point was that most of the so-called Crypto-Bros be was referencing would disagree that you should “try a little bit harder”, and instead push yourself to the extreme to be a winner and successful. In other words just try to better yourself incrementally and don’t kill yourself trying to be David Goggins running up and down mountains and free-diving to catch sharks by hand n shit...
You didnt get the point at all.
> Destiny explains his lowest point in life
> It's not losing his debate with Mister Metokur
LIES.
He’s had a pretty good life huh. Why is Lex such an a-hole to him?
He's not being a jerk really. It's just asking critical, honest questions.
Lmao that's his lowest point? It's ridiculous how privileged people are on the west, only if he was born on a third world country he would actually understand real struggle.
Isn't that good lmao.
I don't get why it's hard to understand he's not saying work was hard on him but the fact he had no future and no upward mobility his life was headed nowhere
Yeah HIS low point
I haven't watched it but was it when he decided to call himself 'Destiny'?
As a kid choosing a username for online games.
NeoDestiny was his original scbw tag
The way Destiny is constantly throwing fits and his negative narcissistic mind set suggest that he’s always at his lowest point.
How many comments are you going to write where you admit to letting him live rent-free in your head?
Lex’ ability to withstand all meatheads is noteworthy. Were it not for the internet, this clown would remain COMPLETELY obscure. Rightly so
I liked your comment, but.. this dude is a wiener.
Almost everyone would be obscure without the internet peabrain
How does one determine whether it is morally right for a person to remain obscure?
@@TheNietzschian the mediocre would, this guy is a perfect example. If you revel in mediocrity you attract the unremarkable. A talented, persistent achiever would succeed in any field….internet or worldwide. Have something to say and the world will beat a path to your door. Hide in your basement and attract other losers and you can be an influencer on the internet…simply because the modern age produces a lot of losers. Corporations and Hollywood will even underwrite you. Substance takes fortitude and balls…this jerkoff has neither.
so would all you favourite conservative commentators
