    Andrew you are a rare gem and one of a few genuine business CZcamsrs here. I remember when I started to follow you in December 2019, you only had lower 4 digit views every day, like 1000 or 2000, that's when you started to post daily. Throughout the craze of pandemic I watched you everyday and saw that you had solid low 4 digit views everyday.
    I remember in your video about "The Truth About Success That No One Tells You", you mentioned that the truth is merely do it, and do it everyday. After watching you for 3 and half years, I learnt that this lesson you shared is gold.
    I truly appreciate the early videos in which you talked about your radio broadcasting advertising and swimming pool cleaning company. I literally personally grew with you, when I started following you, I just graduated from university and was living in San Jose, California, half a year later, I started my first business in Vista California while reading your book, 3 and half years later, I have become a Nomad Capitalist too, and have been growing both personally and business wise.
    I will always remember I got the original inspiration from you. Those old videos you took at the bar that no longer exist in Mexico, in Colombia, and the quarantine days in Kuala Lumpur.

    It is refreshing to hear a real everyday person type of a success story like yours. My biggest financial successes so far have not come through long term effort and value creation like you described but rather dumb luck good timing. For whatever reason I saw obvious value in something early on and got involved regardless of what nay-sayers were saying. Doing that twice and both times working out extremely well explains the ability for the other smaller successes to happen in the first place. There was a lot of work involved in the other smaller successes and tbh I'm more personally attached to them than I am the two big ones

      I think most people don't like to hear most real and useful financial advice because it is rarely sexy or things they probably don't already in some way know or at least conceptually sort of understand already. In the end it is about developing good habits and breaking bad habits. Habits are like having currency sitting in a high interest low risk account. There isn't anything special you have to do to benefit from it besides just having it.

      @johnhanna5967 My friend, this is not a good look. We've all said things we regret. I encourage you to re-think this approach.

      The fruity affectations are a struggle to get through. The BS makes it even harder. Maximum qveer settings to overload!

      I've found the content of this channel to be less and less interesting as the focus goes more and more money/tax oriented. It's got no more soul!
