Oh this is gonna be a GOOD one...

Right off the bat I can tell this guy is hella smart and incredibly free thinking.
I've never heard of basically any of these people you've linked to on this thread!
It's been really enriching.
4:40 loool.
Yeah he's so right, it's true.
This video confirms most of the things I've suspected.
There's nothing greater than somebody with experience speaking on this.
Brilliant stuff so far.
6:53 beautiful... ah God I'd like to hug this guy right now, God bless him.
7:35 I SOMEWHAT disagree with him on this. Fame in this internet paradigm = views, essentially. That's a numbers game. Out of those numbers, there are going to be people who buy whatever you're selling. Yeah it may not make you a jillionaire, but I think it's pretty obvious that it will make you SOMETHING. I'm sure he's going to explain his point though.
11:31 so true.
13:16 LOL awwwe. Come on now, some people wanna speak at events for reasons that don't have much to do with this shit... tunnel vision on money/results alone isn't "creating"... it's just being obsessed with money.
14:27 it's true.
15:55 fuck yeah, amen, this guy is awesome.
16:50 okay here's the thing...
I am guilty of this, massively guilty of "putting deep thought into" what kinda underwear, or whatever. I analyze these internet people because they've put their lives out there and made them public. They're entertaining, it's fun, it's interesting, it's often hilarious. It's a good time! I love analyzing people. I love writing about it all. I think it's monumentally entertaining. Am I a scourge to the internet because of it? Probably. Should people expect to put their lives out there to the public and NOT have people like me examine them? No. LOL. I mean... I'd be sorry for being the type of person he describes, except... I'm not sorry. And I'm not the worst either. At the end of the day, I don't watch people just to shit talk them. I watch them to point out things and be honest about it... because on some level, I think it can be helpful. That's what I've always done, in one form or another... now it's just mostly people on YouTube who are the subjects of my analysis.
17:25 yep, he's absolutely right.
Great video, damn you know what, this makes me even more glad I deleted my YouTube account!!! LOL :)
