when he showed him his worth, it was a boss talking to his employee when he imparted wisdom about money and women, it was a father figure talking to his son
Had a choice between a date with a girl that I've been chasing since HS and working a 16 hour shift for $17/hr . This scene came to mind. I love this movie.
His boss, so strict, yet concerned. I haven't watched the movie, but I can tell that dude shows some care for his employee. $20 million is a lot that someone can bring in and this guy has no problem firing the guy for bringing in that much. Powerful quote he said there.
I've been telling my son this since he was in elementary school, he's a teenager now and still remembers this quote. Daughters get their game from their fathers and sons get their game from their mothers.
While his words ring true, I don’t like having someone determine my livelihood... anytime one can earn a very comfortable living (salary) yet still at the mercy of their employer... that’s problematic.
His words are true but in all honesty if you live in an at will state in the US you can get fired for practically anything so its really not worth being 100 percent loyal to your employer. Keep aiming higher and take chances with career not crazy women.
While I appreciate this scene and the old man's words, I think the word 'money' should be replaced with 'value'. You'll lose value chasing women, but you'll never lose women chasing value. Guys should always value themselves and be the best they could be i.e. financially, physically, or even emotionally. If you could do that, you'll never lose women.
@@bittabrutha31 True. But in the movie his friend/colleague told him Kerry was playing him because Chris wants to be used in order for him to feel valued and she could see that, she was never after his money. What did Denzel say in Training Day? "you so in love the shit's coming out of your eyes" If Chris valued himself, he would've kicked her to the curb on day one. Don't let money define you.
@@MarcusDailyMedia I know she wasn’t after his money but the point is if he keeps chasing her, he’s gonna lose his job which will be losing money stay after the money and you will have other women always
@@StuUngar my bad I know some mfers on here use the internet from a potato 🥔 Someone just asked me what does “flippant” mean in another CZcams comment section.
@@Marva123 nah its right. Just typos 20Million/800Million =0.025 or 2.5%... I had the math right. I mistakenly put 25 instead of 20million which what he brought to the company..
@@cashrules520 Chris Rock would have had to bring in $200 million in order for the analog to work. A quarter is 25% of a dollar not 2.5%. Total revenue was $800 million for the firm, so that analog was off by one order of magnitude.
@@Marva123 I see you're the argumentative type, but I'll entertain it once again. Dont be so quick to rebuttle without seeing the points. $20 / $800 is 2.5% (1 quater is 0.25cents , thats a 2 & 5).. the fact he pulled out a quarter, and knew exactly how much Chris brought in 20 million, is exactly what he's worth to the company 2.5% ... anyways great movie, I dont have that kind of money. Its just an analogy, nothing more or less. Enjoy your week ✌🏾
Chris Rock's character should have been fired. He was intoxicated for hanging out with that silly Kerry Washington character in DC, without being on the crack rock.
"You'll never lose women chasing money" Tell that to those hard working, two job guys, who's women complain that 'You're always working. You never have time for me'. 😂🤣😂🤣
Don't chase money or women. Don't chase anything. You don't have to chase when the thing you should appreciate is self worth. And when you place money above your self worth, you will always be worth less. That's why the table they sit at is treated more fairly than the people sitting at it.
This should have over 5-Million Views!! If it did, we would have at lease 5,000 men being less stupid chasing fantasies & bring more prosperous taking care of Families!!!!
You see this quarter? This your value of 20 million dollars. You this table input this quarter on? It’s worth 800 million dollars. You’re on probation, Cooper. You can’t lose women chasing money, but you can lose money chasing women! Get it together!! #datSTROKElife #PutEmInDaCOBRA
To put it another way focus on making you and your life better than focusing on others'. When you do they will want to be a part of your life. If you focus on others, you will lose yourself and everything else. Don't lose yourself, men.
Wish I knew this 25 years ago.
Man this scene was deep. Powerful words to live by.
Wow That was real talk
Very deep..
Real deep talk
Film name?
@@anoopsathyan9024 "I think I love my wife"
That is coldest line EVER written in Hollywood!
Words to live by
my whole life just changed ...... 🤑
LMAO
Yes
I remember when I saw this in the theater. Some random dude yelled out “real nigga shit” lmao
He ain't lying
when he showed him his worth, it was a boss talking to his employee
when he imparted wisdom about money and women, it was a father figure talking to his son
Nice way of putting it
Well said sir
A Masterful lesson in PRIORITIES!
That was one of the most perspective altering lines in my life. I'll never forget that line. It has evolved from chasing money to chasing value.
Right💯💯💯
Exactly, it's a sound principle regardless of how you apply it.
Mr. Rich made a good point to Chris Rock. You will never lose women chasing money.
...But, you will lose money chasing women!!!
This is the realist shit I ever heard that white man kept it 💯
Not white anymore PINK not black anymore BROWN..
Why do you need to bring up his being white? Maybe that is why this country has gotten so fucked up. He's a man looking out for another man.
Advice to everyman...
Amen..
This quote changed my life when a team leader told me this. You will never lose woman chasing money, but you will always lose money chasing women.
In fact, chasing money, the quality of woman goes up.
Had a choice between a date with a girl that I've been chasing since HS and working a 16 hour shift for $17/hr . This scene came to mind. I love this movie.
So did you chase the pussy or the bag
Yeah I'm curious too.
@@ECJ49 I secured the bag. She cut me off and I haven't heard from her since that moment.
@@jimmybones231 Was it worth it or do you regret it?
@@ECJ49 It was absolutely worth it. If I had the chance again , I'd make the same decision.
This scene made me reevaluate my purpose for sec
I live by those words proudly

A high value man perspective. Deep.
@@joethekinghawk7514 as Rich Cooper says all the time "chase excellence not women". This is no different...
Right
@@techmice4593 Amen.
The boss said he is not gonna allow Chris to mess up his bag for his company he built from the ground up cause he has some female domestic issues.
Most memorable line of the movie
Real shit!

Facts
I've been telling my son this since he was in elementary school, he's a teenager now and still remembers this quote. Daughters get their game from their fathers and sons get their game from their mothers.
Coming from someone who was raised by a single mother of 4, this is 100% true.
Deep
Women have no game
I find a man has to find his own game, as cliche as it sounds, not everyone the same.
True.. I never saw an old poor man sorounded with beautiful women.. ever.!
@Angel sweet well.. I said that because old men have more experience and know more about life than young men.
While his words ring true, I don’t like having someone determine my livelihood... anytime one can earn a very comfortable living (salary) yet still at the mercy of their employer... that’s problematic.
@@kwasiaking185 thank you

Fellas listen up!!!!
Very important!!
Life motto. Out here in traffic and this chick says she sees me out again, busy guy. I had to let her know I'm chasing money.
Powerful words to live by
These words was real as you can get
I’m down with that advice
My pop taught me that back in the 70’s
And yo pop is 100% correct
And left him in the conference room to think about it too
That's the icing on the cake.
Every male should ,no NEEDS, watch this clip!
One of my favorite scenes
Me too, guest what I think I love my wife is on hbomax
I will never forget this scene the rest of my life.
Me neither because even tho this movie was mostly a comedy.... A lot of real ass shit was said.
Me neither
@@vodoumyers a lot of comedy. like when steve buschemi said...'you have feelings. you are like captain save a ho' lmao
There is 2 parts to this. 1st Boss, said I dont need you. You can be replaced... 2nd one about women... I was hooked on the 2nd but the 1st got me now
That's at any organization.sad but true. In all honesty you have to figure out what is important and what is not.
Ruthless and comforting at the same time..
How is this film called
@@mozebbi888 I think I love my wife.

$20 million is a respectable piece of $800 million.
It’s not a quarter to a conference room table. It’s more like a quarter to a plate.
True but the point is deeper..
It’s 2.5%

Yall missed the math. 20/800= 0.025 or 2.5% he used a quater to show he's only worth 2.5%
The math says it all
I don't know what math you are doing but 25/800 = 0.03125. That is 3.125%. Sooo...your whole analog no longer makes sense

The boss speaks wisely because he knew what Chris was doing and he knew Nicky was trouble for him his marriage and his job.
This is a real lesson I learned the hard way!
I’ve quoted this scene since I first saw it back when it came out. The whole lesson is hard to forget
Absolutely INCREDIBLE
Classic drop the mic moment
Whoa! I am so glad I was able to find this scene! So true!
The proportions are way off... that table way more than 40 times the size of the quarter.
Proportion inconsequential. His point consequential.
Are you serious? That's what you took away from this?

One of the best quotes a man can live by.

Real ish right there...
No lies told
Not at all
Golden apples 🍎 in a silver frame.
RESPECT.
Wasnt expecting to get hit by a life lesson at this scene
"You'll never lose women chasing money"
Tell that to those hard working, two job guys, who's women complain that 'You're always working. You never have time for me'. 😂🤣😂🤣
Those aren’t the women you want anyways my guy. Build your bank.
Facts. Ye is that quarter.
He put that boy straight
Inspired.
If he supposed to be an investment banker and all he brought in was $20 mill in “years” he should be fired.
I gotta get this tattooed on my chest 😂❤ 0:51
