    That guy did a complete 180. Good for him. It's really cool how he seems like he's still down to earth, cause anytime most of us think of millionaires, we mostly believe their snobs.

    This is such a beneficial video to anyone with a willing and open heart. Gino is inspirational because he appreciates what he has now but hasn’t forgotten the desperation of being and feeling hopeless. This short video alone can be so helpful to people in similar straits as Gino was when he was homeless and addicted. And that is priceless.

    Lots of people think they need to go to college, but that is not true. He is right, the vocational jobs where you work with your hands pay really good money. Plus it's not necessary to have a 4 year degree or accumulate 6 figures in student loans like some do.

    I got many injured workers to retrain into the trades. I now tell young people to do the same. Talked my junior college into adding welding into their curriculum. It’s good money for this time. Tech is for the best of them to reach high salaries. I still have folks that are self-employed but no high salaries.
    This was one great video. I sure hope many young people watch and learn. Thanks.

    Think outside the box. You cannot very often become rich as an employee somewhere. On the bad side many small biz owners feel like all they’ve done is bought themselves a job if the fruits of their labor does not net them enough to make self employment worth it. But no risk ever taken means 0% chance of individual success. I’ve purchased myself a job in this regard twice in my life so I’m just an employee. Not trying again too old.

    This is a very informative vlog … thank you for bringing this to light! Some years ago in Montana some of the self made millionaires did a hour long show telling what the world needed now for young people to do to make a good living or better.
    One of the things I remember most was the everyone is sending their kids to college and they get out and can’t find a job. Need more in Trade Schools …. no one wants to do that …. just the same as you vlogged!
    I saw that show I believe obverse 25 years ago and guess what …???? People didn’t listen … now those jobs are gone!
    Of course …. since COVID and other obvious government fallacies …. You can’t get people to work!???

Loved how down to earth he is still to this day. I remember seeing him on another vlog when you were at his home to look at his Kiss collection. Just a nice guy with inspiring dreams,great business sense and great taste in what to collect. The Elvis jewelry was stunning and the cars and boats were beautiful. We vacation in Lake Havasu every year and the big boats like his just take your breathe away when they are doing top speed. Scary sport but love that he broke the speed/time record in open waters. Very cool that you can call him your friend. Great vlog. Love your hat by the way. 💛
