14 million Ukrainians ran away from fear and possible death, and that was the best investment in themselves.
Why be a brain surgeon when you can be an "investor" and make more money? F all those years of learning.
This IMO is the #1 most important thing I have learned from you Mike , mental game and mental toughness. It was the subject of the first video I watched of yours a few years ago. I’ve mentioned your philosophies to many people and they have a look on their face like they could care less. Most people are non receptive. Thank you.
Thanks for your wisdom
There’s a good clip on YouTube of Mike on Fox from 2006/7. He laughed in someone’s face for suggesting house prices were unsustainable and credit markets were overextended.
Great talk Mike! More vids like this one please.
Thanks for the insights, Mike. I am better prepared to look for the opportunities now that I know what to look for. I'm not scared of adversity. I think my biggest challenge is knowing when exactly to take advantage of it.
Keep the videos coming. I believe you to be a charitable man at heart.
Happy Labor Day! I will play this for my teenaged son.
Great, motivational speech about life in general -Thank you, Mike. 👍
That's very bad advice. Every time I push myself past my comfort zone my judgement is off and I injure myself. Then I'm in pain and I can't sleep. Then I need to stay in bed and try to catch up on sleep. Then I miss the important activities. I would say it's better to stay within your comfort zone.
I've held onto a fairly large position that went down for 16 years. It's about a third of what I paid for it. I'm so proud of myself for not giving up. I'm going to hold on to it forever even if I go broke.
Spot on… Thanks Mike!
Excellent work Mike!

What you're describing is the story of Job in the bible.
"Naked I come, naked I go, praise be the Lord."
