He just downplayed an opportunity to discuss his charitable donations. That, that right there. That is the undeniable proof that Michael is a genuinely good person. True character is doing good things with no thought of reward. A man with character doesn’t draw focus to the good he does. He doesn’t do it for attention, he does it because he knows it’s right.
Yep, he doesn't have to chest-beat about his accomplishments to validate himself. He is a well balanced and thoughtful individual, to which I think one of the reasons of his successful life stems from the loyalty and trust bestowed on him from others. All in all, it's Michael simply being Michael.
langra man I think someone making a video of something they have isn’t “showing off” it’s just allowing people to see into his life, if he really wanted to brag about his life he’d just say google me. The man has made amazing accomplishments in his life.
Love the answers Michael! Our startup just crossed figures of ARR and a few thoughts for those looking to start their first business from what I have learned over the past 10+ years: 1. Do NOT quit your day job until your new business either has serious traction and/or you physically can no longer work on both (100+ hour weeks). I worked a full-time job for the first 2 years of my first business before transitioning to that business full time. Most businesses take 18+ months before it can afford to pay you a salary. If you quit your job day one of your new business, you will likely run out of money before you business gets to initial traction. 2. Your first business should cost you zero dollars to start or at least very close to zero. If YOU are the right person to start a particular business, you should be able to execute the initial stages of the vision with little to no capital. For example, if you have spent the last 10+ years developing software at your job, you are probably the right person to start a business that offers a product or service that requires software development. For someone who has zero experience with software development, the same business would cost them 10's of 1000's to start... ^ If you follow these two rules, there is literally next to zero financial risk to starting a business. Quitting your day job and taking on debt to start a business is like climbing Everest with an elephant on your back.
“A millionaire mindset is an attitude. It’s not about money. How much money you can make. It’s the difference between thinking positively and thinking negatively. Somebody that is succesfull thinks of all the great things they can achieve. Somebody that’s not, thinks of all the things that could go wrong. If you can eliminate the part where all of the things that could go wrong, that’s how you have a millionaire mindset.” -Producer Michael. I like that. You’re an inspiration, thank you. 🙏✌️💚
One major thing new business owners need to do is save A LOT of money. Do not go out and buy a big house and cars just because you have some money on hand. You need to live small and save, save, save! You should always have enough money to float the business and your personal bills for at least a year or more. If you do not have that then you shouldn't be buying new homes, cars, toys. I've seen so many people start a great business, and run it under because they had to have the million-dollar house and cars before they were in a stable enough place to really pay for them, so their dept ended up way more than their income, and then their business dropped for a couple of months, and they lost everything. So just live light for however many years it takes to get you to that place where you can truly afford the finer things without putting your business in danger.
the 9-figures and billionaires follow the 10% rule - 10% of their income goes to personal expenses (cars/rent/food) and the 90% goes to savings and reinvesting into biz
@@langraman8756 Here you are once again proving to the world that you're the loser. See, I never lost money, I was smart enough to live small for years while buying foreclosers along with other types of investment properties. I'm now 100% debt-free and own 3 homes. and right at 40 acres of land.
@Nic B They spend loads. Look at Michael on this channel... It's built on showing off extravagance. Most millionaires and billionaires are far more asset rich than cash rich. Their "billionaire" wealth is actually from the value of the things they own, not the cash on hand. These assets produce some form of income which they are free to take. Either spend less than that flow of income, or commonly, ride loans with a lower interest than your projected growth rates (usually from continued investments). Loans are very powerful when used appropriately. Just not when the things you buy stagnate or depreciate in value, or when your income doesn't increase.
@@langraman8756, See, what I stated was facts, and you're lying, just as losers always do! Stop being a loser! You don't even own the house you're staying in! So if you own 87, then I own 108. I say 108 because that's the number of vehicles I own here at my used car dealership. Ps. You should do your own laundry you bum! It isn't your mom's place to keep doing it!
Michael, the world is so sad right now, I went to get some groceries and, on the way, I saw a lot of non-essential business closed and I felt really sad going through an avenue who would usually be really busy that time of the day. Anyway, that thing you said about the mindset, it's so true and I thought it wasn't, dude I couldn't handle studying long hours, I was beaten and I blamed others for my failures, then, I stopped feeling sorry for myself and started studying really hard to graduate in electrical engineering and start a business and your videos along with long hours of bill burr's podcast helped me change that about me, I've been studying hard since and I actually found the time to learn a new language as well, german, being confident, relentless, not giving up on things, even changing your posture, walking with your head up and most important having a goal you really care about, this is the recipe to move forward. Thank you a lot.
I had prejudice first time I saw a video with Michael, I was totally wrong! I have learned that it was my mindset and my self that was the problem! Thank you, Michael(and Adam) sharing your positive thoughts and mindset!👍👍
Michael is so damn grounded - he seems like the kind of person that if you asked him for some advice on the street - he wouldn't brush you off but give what little time he has to help you.
I think Michael is a very down to earth person despite his decadence.He doesn't need to be arrogant as alot of wealthy people are. Arrogance is just a facade in other words covering whatever which I am sure Michael doesn't need to do. Nice Guy!
Michael I have watched many many business advice videos on the internet, i started all the way back in 2003 i must have seen thousands by now, *_Your Abilities_* and skills are much too good not to be displayed more As soon as you enter your office, and even more when you talk business, an immediate very noticeable transformation of your personality takes place, you become sharp like an eagle, very maturely confident and your increased display of present intelligence is so sudden and significant that it almost is hard to believe what just happened before one's eyes. I am pitching this transformation to you in such detail, not because i want to over shower you with flattery, but because i am sure, that you have not understood how valuable the contribution of this side of you is to the impression of you as a whole! when people see the leisure - "happy go lucky in the woods" - pictation of you all the time, they will never ever be able to appreciate you nearly as much as they would, if you showed more of your business side. Because then they can not see that the way you are when you are having fun and relaxing in most of your videos - you are that way - because you are the way you are when you do business! these two sides are two extremes that complement each other and make you more productive and capabe as a whole! i have seen this in other people that are very successful, they utilize almost everything they are and almost everything they do, they put it together to reach the best whole that they can. doing that is Joyful, even the sides of themselves that they dont utilize are left untouched because it makes the whole better. (too much self-control makes me perform worse, so i will not control myself too much) when you do not display both these sides in an amount big enough to make the majority of the viewers understand that this is how you work, many misunderstand you and thnk of you a much lesser, less mature and more lowly person then you really are!
You can really tell the kind of person Michael is, I mean, why would he keep doing videos? He doesn't "need" it! However, here he is, this shows passion and love!
Thank you for the inspiration, Michael and Adam! As an entrepreneur who has busted a path through over the past 4 years I can say this advice from Michael is 100% solid and covers so many key bases. I'm keeping this one on file!!
I’ve been following your UA-cam growth since the beginning, although I have no idea how I came across your channel way back then .... you bring a lot of joy into the world, your positive, polite, humble, generous, humorous, genuine personality is a joy to be part of, thanks for sharing so many aspects of your life with us lucky viewers, stay safe Michael! (and best wishes to all fellow viewers)
Michael is so right. Follow your passion. If you're mega happy doing what you love and it doesn't feel like work, that's success. If your mindset it to make a lot of money, you're targetting the wrong thing. What are you going to do ? Go be a lawyer ? A doctor ? A Stockbroker etc ? What if you simply don't like those things and you're therefore not very good at them, especially compared to those people who love those things with a passion ? Better you follow what you love and the money is an off-shoot, a by-product. If you're good (because you're passionate) you'll do okay. You might even get rich !
Michael you are my inspiration, today I received my investor Visa, after so many months I can finally live and work in the United States! I PROMISE that I will be great and my company will be great. Music, Video and digital, the best is yet to come! thanks for this video!
I like the fact that Michael can't or doesn't see himself retiring. I totally agree as I love what I do and don't see it as work and can't get my head round the pipe and slippers mentality. Back a while ago Michael said when he gets too successful and comfortable he "re-sets" his business, to give himself new challenges and interests. It's all about POSITIVITY. Never have negative people around you-they are like vampires taking your energy , drive and ambitions. This guy is wise and gets pleasure from helping people move forward. God bless and stay safe as the world needs people like you and Adam.
I love how michael is so sincere and honest. He very open and friendly and not trying to sell you some bullshit like others here on you tube. Plz more vids like this. He has so much to teach us
Michael I think the answer towards the front might be the most important. When you said if you have partners/employees, treat them well, not just money. When they are happy, they do a great job, clients are happy, come back. Repeat biz is how you grow a company! I was in biz world when I was younger, then became an airline pilot! I find your enthusiasm so contagious, esp about your flying! What a beauty that new Embraer is! Congrats on that!
I said a couple of months back to make a video on business, and I got shot down by some guy in the comments! Michael is a walking encyclopedia , ABSOLUTELY DO A BUSINESS SERIES! And how to take advantage of these markets!
Thanks guys. Just wanted to let you know I'm enjoying watching and listening to you guys in this temporary format, just as much as I did before. Keep up the awesome work 👌
Watch Michael closely every move, words, the way he thinks and how he speaks. Knowledge, confidence, integrity, honesty, good nature, savvy, easy to understand….this guy got it all. Most of us do not possess half of these qualities…gotta work on it.
Thank you for the high-value, actionable advice Michael. The well-prepared, Q&A format made this a 12-minute Ivy-league degree in life. You might continue this entertaining series with other major life "topics", even bringing questions to Adam and some of your associates.
I see a piano in the back, it could be fun to have some content about music instead of only business and luxury. You started as a drummer, you must have a lot of great stories about the old days, no? :)
Thank you, Michael, for being role model in our society. I started my own business 5 years ago. I love what I'm doing! Your advice is gratefully appreciated. Looking forward to hear more from you and Adam.
This is hands down one of the best videos about Business out on UA-cam right now! Highly appreciate you sharing your experience Michael. Stay safe to both you guys and your family🙌🏽.
Love you videos. Always watch them because they lift my spirits and just make me feel good. Your attitude towards life Michael is inspiring and uplifting. Never stop!
Thank you, so very much for bringing your videos and heart to this channel. You bring a ray of sunshine. I truly enjoy all the fun, banter, seriousness and fun. It is very refreshing to hear words like this now. In the past few years I have learned that negativity, hate and the ability to “walk away” , are keys’ to having a better life. I love to see you and Adam enjoying life and bringing it to others. All of this has given me the ability to see more!
Most people go out of business because they are only in it for the money. I am in my 6th year of business and just started my second company. I live very very simply but live life completely on my terms. Dont go into business just for money.
Spot on answers! I am a bit on the negative side of things, but always willing to change. Michael opened a door for me. Wish I had a mentor like him in my network :)
As someone new to this channel, I find ProducerMichael flamboyant and entertaining, which I'm sure is the point. But I really like this video as well. I'm new to watch collecting though I've been in business for 40 years, so I found this episode level-headed, serious, with good, solid advice.
I love that you have a Konstantin Chaykin on your wrist!!! Its my grail and I am proud that its from an amazing house in my country!! Michael, you're the best!
Thank you Michael ... please keep up the watch and car videos, but equally please kindly keep doing more of these ‘in business’ videos. And not just for those people starting out ... but also for those (people like me) who have been running an SME for several years, and find your reminders and fresh thinking really useful and somewhat inspiring. Thanks BT (UK, Midlands)
Doing charity to help people and not to impress other is the right mindset! Love this video I hope we’ll be seeing Michaels Housetour during quarantine 😉
I printed off a quote from you in prior video (over a year ago) and taped it to my desk as motivation. You said, "Believe in yourself. Become great at what you do. Always be determined. Stay focused on your goals. Soon you'll be doing what others won't" 👑🏅💪📈💰
I am British and from the north east of England I now live in Canada and i am officially addicted I have watched every episode since the Covid pandemic thank you for keeping me smiling and so interested guys proud of you Brits
Michael & Adam. Thank you for your work, I have thoroughly enjoyed your videos. My parents are English, so the humor, and positivity is much appreciated. I started out my career living my dream, but got caught when the music stopped in 2008 in a divorce somewhere I did not want to be. After raising my kids, your videos have re inspired me to get after it, and possibly return to my. sunny, home State, California. Cheers, and thank you.
This is just another superb example of the phenomenal generosity that you both have and willingly share in abundance with your viewers. You are both very successful; I simply pray that you both live to 100 and thoroughly enjoy your futures.
Thank you Michael and Adam. I have just discovered your videos and subscribed to your channel. Thank you for doing these fantastic videos, especially during these tough times. I bet you can't wait to be flying and buying again. Thank you for sharing your wonderful life and advice on being positive. Super Thumbs Up
The 155 people that gave this excellent advice a thumbs down, are the very people that would like to be millionaires but haven't got a clue and should be listening. But there are people you just can't help, no matter how hard you try, even if it is free!.... Thanks Michael.
Keeping the intentionally destructive people in check, I’ve seen countless people wiped out by a curve ball they didn’t see coming and then devastated when they find the destruction came from a jealous friend or family
I suggest those who want to get into a business mindset read the book The Law Of Success it is a book written by Napoleon Hill he interviews the most successful people of that time and puts it all in one book take a read and try to incorporate it in your life good luck with your goals and desires and remember hard work beats talent.
Mikes a great guy. Negativity [ haters ]will destroy you, get away from losers as quick as you can. Don't associate with negative people who criticize everyone, you too will be an unhappy failure.
Haters are everywhere. They use their own lack of self-esteem and ignorance to make false accusations about others. Mikes a great guy, always helping someone out, giving to charities,etc. People are morons.
I don't see him looking down on anyone. In fact, he treats everyone with the highest level of respect. I appreciate him sharing the keys to his happiness and success with everyone; this pubic project probably represents a large portion of the little leisure time he has during the week.
Proof that hard work pays off. Pure class act Michael. I love your attitude, style and passion. You make each video such a pleasure to watch because you are such a charismatic, pleasant and inspirational person. That is no doubt why you have been successful. What's different about watching your videos is that instead of finding myself wishing I had everything that you have acquired I am truly thrilled for you. Good on you Sir, love your style and thank you for for sharing.
As a 23 year old thats been working and trying to succeed in life since I've known, This video is some amazing advice thank you Michael and Adam I'm chuffed with this aha keep it up chaps!
The comment about making sure you keep your companies cash flow in check really really hits home for me. Our business has had an amazing 4 years and we have saw a ton of growth and last year in particular was the best year the company had across the board we made profit about 4 million. You would think that means that the company would be fairly flush with cash considering after all of your overhead is paid you made 4 million dollars. However, my employer uses the company as his cash register, that profit pays his house payment, his car payments, his wife's car payments, and the car payments of his 5 children as well as the rent for 3 of them and the college tuition of the other 2. The business pays for his 4 family vacations a year and you take 7-10 people staying somewhere exotic in the nicest hotels, eating at the best restaurants and whatever they do while they are there 4 times a year gets really really expensive. It pays his for his home renovations which i know just adding the pool and deck in the backyard was over $200,000. The company is so cash poor that the moment a lockdown was even mentioned as a possibility they laid off 15 people because they could not endure a slow month and still make payroll and we are an essential business and have been running at full steam and then some setting up home offices as well as our normal stuff since this has happened, if anything business is booming. Just the thought that they may have to take 3 vacations instead of 4 or take less people on their vacation was enough to lay off 15 people and its honestly making me rethink my employment with them.
I started my business about two years ago. It was after you two made video with some German guy. It was such a great video. And now when people ask who is your mentor? My answer is simple! Michael Producer Blakey.
Hello Michael! I feel lucky to have come across your videos. Beyond some extravagances and that some videos may seem superfluous in their content, I rescue the excellent good vibes and your desire to send us a different message and how to see abundance without negativity. In other words, just the opposite. There is no doubt that you are sharing your experiences with an open heart. I greatly appreciate it. I hope I can share a coffee with you in the future somewhere on the planet and personally thank you for what you offer. Your experiences have come into my life at a very special time. My Mindset needed it. I also want to mention Adam, you guys make an excellent synergy. I wish the best to both of you. A big greeting from Argentina. Martin
Write down your goals, make a step by step plan on how you will achieve those goals. Be confident and honestly believe you want to become wealthy. There will be wins and losses but all that matters is that you dont stop. Your goals at 18 will change as you get older. Remember, how you do one thing , is how you do everything!
I only found you both a couple of weeks ago.... finally caught up with the latest videos .... I have been feeling really happy watching these Vids as not only are they great to watch there really great fun and I've laughed out loud on occasion. ..Keep them coming ...A new Life awaits!!!!
I want to offer something Michael left out. That being when you are planning what kind of business to start, understand that it has to be about the money you'll be making. If you start a business that's based on a "feeling" you will fail. This is why many businesses fail because the person woke up one day and it "felt" good starting a business that does, whatever. But what happens when you get up one morning and you no longer "feel" like doing that business? Then you don't go to work because it doesn't "feel" like it used to--failure. However, if your business is routed in making money than you will go to work when you don't feel like it. Yes, you must choose a business that you would like being involved and interests you, along with a number of other factors. But don't start a business because it "feels" nice.
We need an updated watch collection vid! Would be fun to see both yours and Adams, should work over zoom, just overlaying some pics of the watches while showing them.
He just downplayed an opportunity to discuss his charitable donations. That, that right there. That is the undeniable proof that Michael is a genuinely good person. True character is doing good things with no thought of reward. A man with character doesn’t draw focus to the good he does. He doesn’t do it for attention, he does it because he knows it’s right.
Absolutely
Yep, he doesn't have to chest-beat about his accomplishments to validate himself. He is a well balanced and thoughtful individual, to which I think one of the reasons of his successful life stems from the loyalty and trust bestowed on him from others. All in all, it's Michael simply being Michael.
@@langraman8756 Do not understand your statement. There is a clear difference..
He does alot of good work for charity, but he doesn't like to talk about it!
langra man I think someone making a video of something they have isn’t “showing off” it’s just allowing people to see into his life, if he really wanted to brag about his life he’d just say google me. The man has made amazing accomplishments in his life.

Love the answers Michael! Our startup just crossed figures of ARR and a few thoughts for those looking to start their first business from what I have learned over the past 10+ years:
1. Do NOT quit your day job until your new business either has serious traction and/or you physically can no longer work on both (100+ hour weeks). I worked a full-time job for the first 2 years of my first business before transitioning to that business full time. Most businesses take 18+ months before it can afford to pay you a salary. If you quit your job day one of your new business, you will likely run out of money before you business gets to initial traction.
2. Your first business should cost you zero dollars to start or at least very close to zero. If YOU are the right person to start a particular business, you should be able to execute the initial stages of the vision with little to no capital. For example, if you have spent the last 10+ years developing software at your job, you are probably the right person to start a business that offers a product or service that requires software development. For someone who has zero experience with software development, the same business would cost them 10's of 1000's to start...
^ If you follow these two rules, there is literally next to zero financial risk to starting a business. Quitting your day job and taking on debt to start a business is like climbing Everest with an elephant on your back.

I have watched many many business advice videos on the internet, i started all the way back in 2003
i must have seen thousands by now,
*_Your Abilities_* and skills are much too good not to be displayed more
As soon as you enter your office, and even more when you talk business,
an immediate very noticeable transformation of your personality takes place,
you become sharp like an eagle, very maturely confident and your increased display of present intelligence is so sudden and significant that it almost is hard to believe what just happened before one's eyes.
I am pitching this transformation to you in such detail, not because i want to over shower you with flattery,
but because i am sure, that you have not understood how valuable the contribution of this side of you is to the impression of you as a whole!
when people see the leisure - "happy go lucky in the woods" - pictation of you all the time, they will never ever be able to appreciate you nearly as much as they would, if you showed more of your business side.
Because then they can not see that the way you are when you are having fun and relaxing in most of your videos - you are that way - because you are the way you are when you do business!
these two sides are two extremes that complement each other and make you more productive and capabe as a whole!
i have seen this in other people that are very successful, they utilize almost everything they are and almost everything they do, they put it together to reach the best whole that they can. doing that is Joyful, even the sides of themselves that they dont utilize are left untouched because it makes the whole better. (too much self-control makes me perform worse, so i will not control myself too much)
when you do not display both these sides in an amount big enough to make the majority of the viewers understand that this is how you work, many misunderstand you and thnk of you a much lesser, less mature and more lowly person then you really are!
You can really tell the kind of person Michael is, I mean, why would he keep doing videos? He doesn't "need" it!
However, here he is, this shows passion and love!
Michael can we please see more of your Aircraft. Perhaps on a long flight?

Better you follow what you love and the money is an off-shoot, a by-product. If you're good (because you're passionate) you'll do okay. You might even get rich !
Everyone have a wonderful day or night!! Stay safe and stay healthy!!
Michael you are my inspiration, today I received my investor Visa, after so many months I can finally live and work in the United States! I PROMISE that I will be great and my company will be great. Music, Video and digital, the best is yet to come! thanks for this video!
I like the fact that Michael can't or doesn't see himself retiring. I totally agree as I love what I do and don't see it as work and can't get my head round the pipe and slippers mentality.
Back a while ago Michael said when he gets too successful and comfortable he "re-sets" his business, to give himself new challenges and interests. It's all about POSITIVITY.
Never have negative people around you-they are like vampires taking your energy , drive and ambitions. This guy is wise and gets pleasure from helping people move forward.
God bless and stay safe as the world needs people like you and Adam.
I love how michael is so sincere and honest. He very open and friendly and not trying to sell you some bullshit like others here on you tube.
Plz more vids like this. He has so much to teach us
I was so chuffed you included my question (blackmoor111)
Michael is giving his time to help and you can see his success has helped Adam and everyone around him. Michael has the success sauce! 👍🏼
BIGMANMUSIK do you know how they met? I would love to know
Michael I think the answer towards the front might be the most important. When you said if you have partners/employees, treat them well, not just money. When they are happy, they do a great job, clients are happy, come back. Repeat biz is how you grow a company! I was in biz world when I was younger, then became an airline pilot! I find your enthusiasm so contagious, esp about your flying! What a beauty that new Embraer is! Congrats on that!
I said a couple of months back to make a video on business, and I got shot down by some guy in the comments! Michael is a walking encyclopedia , ABSOLUTELY DO A BUSINESS SERIES! And how to take advantage of these markets!
Favorite person on and off UA-cam.
really wanna see an autobiography type video from him 😃
I was amazed finding that Michael was at Hansa in Berlin when Bowie and Iggy were recording there
Thanks guys. Just wanted to let you know I'm enjoying watching and listening to you guys in this temporary format, just as much as I did before. Keep up the awesome work 👌
Watch Michael closely every move, words, the way he thinks and how he speaks. Knowledge, confidence, integrity, honesty, good nature, savvy, easy to understand….this guy got it all. Most of us do not possess half of these qualities…gotta work on it.
Thank you for the high-value, actionable advice Michael. The well-prepared, Q&A format made this a 12-minute Ivy-league degree in life. You might continue this entertaining series with other major life "topics", even bringing questions to Adam and some of your associates.
I see a piano in the back, it could be fun to have some content about music instead of only business and luxury. You started as a drummer, you must have a lot of great stories about the old days, no? :)
Thank you, Michael, for being role model in our society. I started my own business 5 years ago. I love what I'm doing! Your advice is gratefully appreciated. Looking forward to hear more from you and Adam.
This is hands down one of the best videos about Business out on UA-cam right now! Highly appreciate you sharing your experience Michael. Stay safe to both you guys and your family🙌🏽.
Everyone's claiming first, well I claim *43rd* 😎
That's the attitude!! Slow and steady wins the race!! You're in it to win it!! ✌😉

Can i a recommend that adam records his screen and audio and micheal does the same then sends it for editing? That way you have proper quality video.
A Cat yes
That's right, I couldn't even get some things right because of the poor audio quality.
Michael said at the introduction to the video that this particular video Would not have any glam.
are you serious, put subtitles on.
Love you videos. Always watch them because they lift my spirits and just make me feel good. Your attitude towards life Michael is inspiring and uplifting. Never stop!
Thank you, so very much for bringing your videos and heart to this channel. You bring a ray of sunshine. I truly enjoy all the fun, banter, seriousness and fun. It is very refreshing to hear words like this now. In the past few years I have learned that negativity, hate and the ability to “walk away” , are keys’ to having a better life. I love to see you and Adam enjoying life and bringing it to others. All of this has given me the ability to see more!
Most people go out of business because they are only in it for the money. I am in my 6th year of business and just started my second company. I live very very simply but live life completely on my terms. Dont go into business just for money.
“Let’s see if Producer Michel will adopt us”. 😂
Spot on answers! I am a bit on the negative side of things, but always willing to change. Michael opened a door for me. Wish I had a mentor like him in my network :)
As someone new to this channel, I find ProducerMichael flamboyant and entertaining, which I'm sure is the point. But I really like this video as well. I'm new to watch collecting though I've been in business for 40 years, so I found this episode level-headed, serious, with good, solid advice.
Some great tips on life and business. Happy we still have something to watch. Hope everyone is doing well and staying safe.
A wise man once said, find a job you love and you will never work a day in your life?
Are you asking us?
that's why i became a window cleaner for the last 32 years ;)
Are there any sleeping jobs?
@@JohnWick-ee2rm I red somewhere that in NASA ..but its hard job.
I love that you have a Konstantin Chaykin on your wrist!!! Its my grail and I am proud that its from an amazing house in my country!! Michael, you're the best!
Thank you Michael ... please keep up the watch and car videos, but equally please kindly keep doing more of these ‘in business’ videos. And not just for those people starting out ... but also for those (people like me) who have been running an SME for several years, and find your reminders and fresh thinking really useful and somewhat inspiring. Thanks BT (UK, Midlands)
Fly out to Colorado Springs and come to DRAGON MAN'S. Love watching your Videos.
I like how he still brought Adam to this video.
Doing charity to help people and not to impress other is the right mindset! Love this video I hope we’ll be seeing Michaels Housetour during quarantine 😉
I printed off a quote from you in prior video (over a year ago) and taped it to my desk as motivation. You said, "Believe in yourself. Become great at what you do. Always be determined. Stay focused on your goals. Soon you'll be doing what others won't" 👑🏅💪📈💰
Damn when Adam goes its like we take a trip to the Stone Age lol
damn it, I've only just found your channel.
Britney Spaulding
Welcome aboard. We’ve been waiting for you. We love this guy.
Wow, well welcome!!!..
You have to see all of his videos
A warm welcome to you! Hope you’re looking forward to watching peter marco, yosi dina, and my favorite cosmo.
You are very lucky,you get to enjoy all the videos,wish you a good binge watching you lucky girl!!!!
I am British and from the north east of England I now live in Canada and i am officially addicted I have watched every episode since the Covid pandemic thank you for keeping me smiling and so interested guys proud of you Brits
Michael & Adam. Thank you for your work, I have thoroughly enjoyed your videos. My parents are English, so the humor, and positivity is much appreciated. I started out my career living my dream, but got caught when the music stopped in 2008 in a divorce somewhere I did not want to be. After raising my kids, your videos have re inspired me to get after it, and possibly return to my. sunny, home State, California. Cheers, and thank you.
How to get drunk superfast?
Play a drink game everytime michael says “that’s a great question”
Do you have a camera in my room? :D
I love those "business" videos!
Thank you for your tips michael🙏🏼
This is just another superb example of the phenomenal generosity that you both have and willingly share in abundance with your viewers. You are both very successful; I simply pray that you both live to 100 and thoroughly enjoy your futures.
Thank you Michael and Adam. I have just discovered your videos and subscribed to your channel. Thank you for doing these fantastic videos, especially during these tough times. I bet you can't wait to be flying and buying again. Thank you for sharing your wonderful life and advice on being positive. Super Thumbs Up
I’d love to see more house tours one everything has blown over, so PLEASE DO MORE!!!😂
Why does this guy look like Stylish Donald Trump?
Its the wig
The 155 people that gave this excellent advice a thumbs down, are the very people that would like to be millionaires but haven't got a clue and should be listening. But there are people you just can't help, no matter how hard you try, even if it is free!.... Thanks Michael.
Absolutely the best channel on UA-cam by a mile! Love your videos and knowledge! Love from the UK 🇬🇧
Hey Producer Michael so when are you going to do a review about the new Jacob and Co Bugatti Watch.
He doesn't care for Bugatti so I doubt he will be in the market for their new Bugatti watch haha
@@crotalus_4203 he bought one recently, its not the newest model
Michael's House Tour in the Future!
Great advise Michael. I agree with answers. I was taught early on. Millionaires are all risk takers. If you sit back and wait kt will never come.
Keeping the intentionally destructive people in check, I’ve seen countless people wiped out by a curve ball they didn’t see coming and then devastated when they find the destruction came from a jealous friend or family
I suggest those who want to get into a business mindset read the book The Law Of Success it is a book written by Napoleon Hill he interviews the most successful people of that time and puts it all in one book take a read and try to incorporate it in your life good luck with your goals and desires and remember hard work beats talent.
Or Think and Grow Rich. That's a great book as well.
Thank you very much for doing content in this situation!
Mikes a great guy. Negativity [ haters ]will destroy you, get away from losers as quick as you can. Don't associate with negative people who criticize everyone, you too will be an unhappy failure.
I am very proud of you Michael and Adam. EVERYTHING HAS BEEN A MIRACLE AND BEYOND MY WILDEST DREAMS.
As much as people say Michael looks down on people, there’s a lot of millionaires out there that will charge people for things like this 😂
samuel dale can’t say I have ever seen anyone say michael looks down on anybody?
Nobody says that about Michael.
@@langraman8756 ignorance has no place in the world...
Haters are everywhere. They use their own lack of self-esteem and ignorance to make false accusations about others. Mikes a great guy, always helping someone out, giving to charities,etc. People are morons.
I don't see him looking down on anyone. In fact, he treats everyone with the highest level of respect. I appreciate him sharing the keys to his happiness and success with everyone; this pubic project probably represents a large portion of the little leisure time he has during the week.
Your personality is amazing. I would love to hang out with you one day more than once.😂 You’re so inspiring!!💕
Proof that hard work pays off. Pure class act Michael. I love your attitude, style and passion. You make each video such a pleasure to watch because you are such a charismatic, pleasant and inspirational person. That is no doubt why you have been successful. What's different about watching your videos is that instead of finding myself wishing I had everything that you have acquired I am truly thrilled for you. Good on you Sir, love your style and thank you for for sharing.
As a 23 year old thats been working and trying to succeed in life since I've known, This video is some amazing advice thank you Michael and Adam I'm chuffed with this aha keep it up chaps!
You never lack the inspiration one needs that’s you for being such a nurturer to soul. Thank you kindly.
Sincerely,
Ivan Meza
This was very informative and great advice that can turn people's lives for the best 💪 thank you guys
The comment about making sure you keep your companies cash flow in check really really hits home for me. Our business has had an amazing 4 years and we have saw a ton of growth and last year in particular was the best year the company had across the board we made profit about 4 million. You would think that means that the company would be fairly flush with cash considering after all of your overhead is paid you made 4 million dollars. However, my employer uses the company as his cash register, that profit pays his house payment, his car payments, his wife's car payments, and the car payments of his 5 children as well as the rent for 3 of them and the college tuition of the other 2. The business pays for his 4 family vacations a year and you take 7-10 people staying somewhere exotic in the nicest hotels, eating at the best restaurants and whatever they do while they are there 4 times a year gets really really expensive. It pays his for his home renovations which i know just adding the pool and deck in the backyard was over $200,000. The company is so cash poor that the moment a lockdown was even mentioned as a possibility they laid off 15 people because they could not endure a slow month and still make payroll and we are an essential business and have been running at full steam and then some setting up home offices as well as our normal stuff since this has happened, if anything business is booming. Just the thought that they may have to take 3 vacations instead of 4 or take less people on their vacation was enough to lay off 15 people and its honestly making me rethink my employment with them.
I started my business about two years ago. It was after you two made video with some German guy. It was such a great video. And now when people ask who is your mentor? My answer is simple! Michael Producer Blakey.
Hey I respect what you said and yeah Mike is a good dude can you give me some insight on starting a business?
emergency haircut for michael, fire up the chopper!
Thank you for this Michael!!
Love these videos. I like the fun, light-hearted, mansion tours too, but this is chance for Michael to show the substance behind his wealth.
Keep up the good work Michael and Adam! Thank you for giving us great content
Adam is really out here attacking kids for their spelling

Is “1st” still a thing? Perhaps that all the kids. 😂
Michaels a witty guy who knows his stuff. Michaels a nice guy and his friends know it and that's why I believe they love him.
What a lovely honest man Michael seems, even in his videos he never seems to show off about his success in business. Very well grounded and likeable.
Your house tour Michael.......please
add me to the next zoom session? :)
Love you Michael. You have a great deal of wisdom, and I love listening to your content!
Hello Michael! I feel lucky to have come across your videos. Beyond some extravagances and that some videos may seem superfluous in their content, I rescue the excellent good vibes and your desire to send us a different message and how to see abundance without negativity. In other words, just the opposite. There is no doubt that you are sharing your experiences with an open heart. I greatly appreciate it. I hope I can share a coffee with you in the future somewhere on the planet and personally thank you for what you offer. Your experiences have come into my life at a very special time. My Mindset needed it. I also want to mention Adam, you guys make an excellent synergy. I wish the best to both of you. A big greeting from Argentina. Martin
Michael doesn't seem to be the type to be cooped up inside 😞 :(
2:03am businesses talk, I’ll be 18 Sunday an I’m just wanting to grow to be a wealthy man an make my lord Jesus Christ an grandmother happy.
Write down your goals, make a step by step plan on how you will achieve those goals. Be confident and honestly believe you want to become wealthy. There will be wins and losses but all that matters is that you dont stop. Your goals at 18 will change as you get older. Remember, how you do one thing , is how you do everything!
find something you love, that you can to do everyday and you will be happy it's not all about money.
Michael McClanahan yoo that’s crazy we got the same birthday n age
This is such valuable and wholesome advice. Thank you gents, much appreciated.
I only found you both a couple of weeks ago.... finally caught up with the latest videos .... I have been feeling really happy watching these Vids as not only are they great to watch there really great fun and I've laughed out loud on occasion. ..Keep them coming ...A new Life awaits!!!!
We miss that Asian lady 😭 who's hot who does the house review in the small bathing suit
Marcus Gonzales “That Asian lady” has a name you ignoramus
I want to offer something Michael left out. That being when you are planning what kind of business to start, understand that it has to be about the money you'll be making. If you start a business that's based on a "feeling" you will fail. This is why many businesses fail because the person woke up one day and it "felt" good starting a business that does, whatever. But what happens when you get up one morning and you no longer "feel" like doing that business? Then you don't go to work because it doesn't "feel" like it used to--failure. However, if your business is routed in making money than you will go to work when you don't feel like it. Yes, you must choose a business that you would like being involved and interests you, along with a number of other factors. But don't start a business because it "feels" nice.
I really love the positive attitude from Michael especially in these days.
We need an updated watch collection vid! Would be fun to see both yours and Adams, should work over zoom, just overlaying some pics of the watches while showing them.
