I am a Gentleman and few situations are more challenging than "doing it doggy style" with a woman and suddenly noticing a whiff of bowel, only to look down and see the dreaded brown balls. Medical fact: if a person does not overeat, gets plenty of fiber, water, and some exercise.... it sort of plops out with little to no odor and almost no residue, one square is enough.

    • ​@@casperr8349 the world of 'fashion' is not as one dimensional as what you read or watch on the internet, whether documentaries or 'investigative' pieces or from bloggers and vloggers. A lot of times, these 'internet content' is really outsiders trying to get in. Imran Amed from "Business of Fashion" is a good example of an outsider looking in from fashion in the beginning. He's a lot different now since 10 years ago because he's sort of an 'insider' now, having marinated some time in the fashion world. Just like in tech, a lot of things you can't just find in 'documentation' or manuals or reading reddit or stackoverflow (prior to that was "experts exchange" which actually had a lot of good contributions by tech people). Yes true you can solve a small subset of a problem on stack overflow but you still need to rely on your own problem solving and organisation skills to build up an entire maintainable system. A lot of nuances which you can't explain in articles or documentaries. You got to be immersed in fashion world to understand it. It's beyond "design patterns" in tech where you can catalogue it. But even "design patterns" in tech decay rapidly because things just keep changing and 'internet content' can't keep up. The word "design patterns" in tech is actually a borrowed term from architecture. Lots of cross pollination going on which you need to really be observing and thinking thoughtfully about on your own. In fashion, a lot of concepts are very similar to tech. Refactoring your code. Making your code easy to maintain or scale up. Efficiency in your code to fashion is how well your fabric quality is, how skilled you cut the fabric, etc. It's very technical in fabrics, more so than software. Software can be copied and paste, which is how programmers code for the past 2 decades (yes, it's not a new thing). "Fashion" fabric you can't do that. Yes "Fast fashion" is a lot different. Techlead has started a lot of businesses and succeeded. KZhead venture is just one of his money making businesses. Don't forget that it has nothing to do with "tech". I was just talking about fabric, not even how fashion houses are really just the frontend side, a 'brand'. The factories and manufacturers are probably all Italian owned, making all the clothes -> the backend. Fashion designer is not the same as a stylist. It's similar to a software engineer to a programmer. Fashion is also about psychology. How you see yourself in this world. A mechanism to project your image into the real world. Offline. Online is trash. Tip of the ice berg, son. But the point is you got to think "outside" and hope you're lucky enough to delve outside of the tech world. Tech is easy, son.

    • @@casperr8349 sorry to answer your question, i've worked long enough in the tech industry to realise it's not worth the money to sacrifice your entire life in a small box staring at a screen with no emotions. yes, real world is complicated and stuff, but that's what life is about. i want to use tech to enhance my own life, but not be a slave to tech (as a programmer). i can't be a fashion designer because it takes talent and a certain mindset (similar to the criteria to be a tech person). but i'm a student of fashion and i try to enhance my life with fashion...through "TRIAL AND ERROR" through EXPERIMENTATION.

    • My theory is that we only desire these things, these outward displays of wealth, because we don't believe we are worthy; we seek validation from others - NOT because we are attention whores - but because we honestly are not yet convinced of our worth, our successfulness. We need to hear it from others - people who are impartial observers; people. THEN, when we DO become successful, we begin to actually believe our positive assessments of ourselves, of our worthiness. So we don't need external validation like we did in the past.

Even if we forget that 1-2 millions of dollars is a price of ok looking LA house :D You can be multimillionaire today, but how old are you? 60? 65? 75? Is your house is completely yours? Are you completely alone? (or you have at least 1-2 people you are deeply care about?) Do you want to live on 20 thousands dollars a year or less for the rest of your life? If one of the answers is no - several millions of dollars is not enough if you want to continue living in U.S. or any other first world country. Unless you are one of those thing that I mentioned above (alone, live in third world country, probably in a van, consumer debt free, don't splurge money etc. etc. etc.) Hundreds of thousands and even up to several millions in your account only means that you will not immediately die if you stop working.

  • *Being* a millionaire doesn’t sound that great. _Becoming_ a millionaire does though. Studies have shown that most people adapt to a big jackpot lottery win within three months. So the very thing that we perceive as life-changing may not have the long-lasting impact we expect. There’s no point in just looking at the financial element, you have to look at things from a psychological perspective, too.

    • The most important difference is the financial independence. If you are FI, you have a lot more freedom to choose how you live your life and use your time. Instead of going to a job you may not be passionate about, you can pursue something more meaningful. This is by far the most important aspect. I discuss these in more detail in my video on FIRE.

    • The "becoming" part takes time and changes a person inside out. Same with studying for and getting a higher​ degree or getting into peak shape. It's the journey that is WAY more important than the final destination. Just my observation but the people who embark on the FIRE journey are some of the most level headed and calm people around. Once you have enough money for your functional lifestyle and your retirement covered, the additional money really makes very little sense.

    • @@main_stream_media_is_a_joke Totally agree with that. The process is much more important than the outcome. The outcome is usually a byproduct of the process. However, with a jackpot lottery win, there isn’t much of a process. You buy a ticket, you choose your numbers, and you sit there and hope they come up. If they do, you are in dreamland. The ecstasy and euphoria of a big win has you jumping with joy. You have a honeymoon period afterwards as well where you are on cloud nine. But over time, you acclimatise, you become desensitised to your situation, and things gradually revert back to normal on a psychological level - and maybe even on a financial level if you’ve decided to be incredibly lavish. This is why you have happy poor people and depressed rich people. Relativity is everything.

  • Firstly i'm not sure of the impression most get but I just found this channel and I really appreciate the wealth of knowledge you're sharing. To be honest a lot of the information is things i'm already aware of although it isn't what you say it's how you say it. When you speak it's not the same emotional spill that most provide it's simply cold facts which makes for a concise and easily digestible message. The fact of the matter is that i'm certain you could be spending your time doing other things so thank you for even taking the time to share such poignant information. Over this last year a lot of things became much less important & therefore disappeared from my budget. A quick few being alcohol, smoking weed, phone bill, transit (biking more often) among a list of other things. Instead I make a budgett every time I get paid & prioritize what's necessary vs what is only a want. But I digress, these videos are a wonderful reminder & i'm gaining some knowledge as well. Thank you again!
