Has anyone else started watching this guy seriously after watching him ironically for a bit? I know he's a fraud and what not. At first I just put him on the background for a cheap laugh now and then for "muh lamborghinis".

After a while, I started realizing the content of his videos are actually informative, when he delivers the synopsis for self-help books in four or five minute videos. Even though he's an idiot, the content of what he's saying still holds true, and now I find myself watching his videos almost every day.

Can someone help me out here, because I feel that I'm getting memed somehow.

He doesn't say anything wrong necessarily. But he isn't saying anything mind blowing.

The YouTube channel is more of a sales funnel to get you to buy his stuff.

There's reams of knowledge and life experiences in books in your public library that you can read for free.
>>
He says very obvious things and tries to make it feel like it's some grandiose revelation. It's a siren sing designed to make you feel like you're intelligent because you're following along or making ridiculously superficial connections. You're never actually going to improve your life by listening to him.

If you spent your time, instead, on actually achieving your goals instead of pissing it away on watching retarded YouTube videos, you might actually become successful.
>>
His tips may seem obvious and they are but following them is a good step forward: be optimistic, learn something new every day, don't be scared of failure, read alot of books, invest in yourself etc etc. Very good tips but not mindblowing.

"After a while, I started realizing the content of his videos are actually informative, when he delivers the synopsis for self-help books in four or five minute videos"

There are youtube channels that do this for free but you chose to pay $70 sum dollars monthly for the guide or whatever his price is

kys shill

There is no content

It's all generic and vague self help that helps no one.

If you've read Millionaire Next Door and Millionaire Fastlane, then you've already read all of his material

He's smart and dispenses good advice, but nothing he says is groundbreaking.

Furthermore he's the classic self help guru who ultimately just wants to put desperate people's $ into his own pocket.

Buddy, I know its all vague bullshit but so is the majority of self-help book -they're motivation porn. I've read both the books you've listed and currently finishing a degree in econ/math. while investing all my student loans..

What I'm saying is he's good to extract little tidbits of info. For example he had a video the other week where he said what area of the face you should be looking at for each sort of conversation: forehead for business, nose for friendly, etc that I thought made sense. Sure his videos are 90% fluff and "here in my house in the hollywood hills", but I'm learning stuff just by having him in the background while I work.

He doesn't say anything other than things that should be obvious but that we may have trouble realizing in the long term.

Again, thousands of places to find better and deeper versions of this same advice without paying money.

desu you are probably a shill
>>
>>1429817
This is just his youtube videos I'm talking about, not the paid shit.
>>
Torrent the 67 Steps.

That content I got to say is pretty mind blowing. It challenges the way you think and it's pretty legit. Each story is backed by solid logic and you sit there saying wtf to yourself after. It's got me thinking pretty different.

I used to think he was afaggot shiller desu.
>>
Just don't watch his snapchat stories they're cringe.

>What I'm saying is he's good to extract little tidbits of info

That's like saying you can make money by finding spare change by rummaging through garbage in the local landfield

He has some solid advice. A lot of it is just empty motivational stuff and worn-out platitudes.

I watch his videos because the context of some of them are hilarious to me. He'll be driving around in his lambo with a 10/10 model date in the passenger seat, and he's just holding his phone up and rambling on about reading fast or w/e, while the girl just sits there awkwardly. She'll try to get his attention diverted to something else, as if to tell him "put your phone up and pay attention to me."

There's another video where he does this, and he's got this awkward neckbeard looking friend with him, and through the whole video he's got the attitude like "jesus christ not this youtube shit again."

I imagine he impulsively pulls out his phone when in public/socializing to make a video, inconveniencing those around him. It must be pretty annoying to hang out with him.
