My favorite part of this speech was just seeing how Mark stumbled at times. Just like all of us, he's putting himself out there in a new and vulnerable position, truly acting out what he preeches.
Albert Chen - I would agree. As polished as Mark was, he still stumbled a few times. Yet, such wobbles did not deter Mark. He also framed his three pieces of advice well. I loved his commencement speech. Go NASA, Buzz Aldrin, Mario and confirmation bias - when useful.
👍
@@jkrasney1 You can tell he's nervous from the rocking left and right and the fact he took a drink like 3 times. Not meant to detract from the speech at all, I thought it was great. It's just interesting that experience in front of the camera doesn't fully translate to public speaking.
A few notes...but didn't refer to them much...he spoke heart and mind...his truth...he actually believes what he's saying...but better yet, has lived what he's saying.
@@jkrasney1 looks like you didn't notice those teleprompters ;) He was glued to his left prompter most of the times. unllike other seasoned teleprompter readers like POTUS, he was reading certain things twice, if he didn't read them right, in the first attempt, appearing to stumble :)
great speech, nevertheless.
Mark Rober’s speech to MIT students he never met was more personalized and tailored to the class than any of the speeches given at my graduation. This was a great video, and I look forward to hearing of the success of this class in June 2053
He’s not going to shag you

Dont be too hasty... Maybe you get R worded and become pregnant with the chad who took advantage of you then you end up hanging from your bathroom shower. Then how would you view the June 2053 video?
@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist8 no
It wouldn't be Mark Rober without the music!
hello dude dans!
It wouldn’t be Mark Rober without his scientist and eating the basketball like he said on Dude Perfect’s video
Oh hi
Hey dude dans! Love your videos!
Agree. Definitely Mark Rober quality 😂
Dude dans wassup
I might not be from MIT, but I’m also about to be a graduating engineer this year. People like Mark Rober, the rest of the Mythbusters crew, Nigel of NileRed, and many TV/RUclips “scitubers” had a lot of permanent impact to many of us young and green students still learning along the way.
He’s right. We might trip on some rocks and fall off a bridge while crossing a river, but as long as we have naive optimism and believe somehow we’d be lifted magically to the river bank, it’s all possible.
Congrats to the MIT graduating class of 2023! Carpe diem!
I agree
Well said for me it was Mr Wizard and Carl Sagan who first inspired me to start the voyage.

Don't forget electroboom😌
Mrs. Frizzle
Mark Rober is a national treasure.
No.
@@doctorpanigrahi9975 😱 😱 😱
Nicolas Cage is after him?
Hes right up there with Weird Al and the guy who talked really fast on the Fed-Ex commercials.
I did his elephant toothpaste trick for my grandkids and got them interested in science. Thanks Mark!
1) Have Naive Optimism
2) Frame Your Failures
3) Foster Meaningful Relationships
4) Engage In Playful Anarchy
Thank you
It really, really....really works.
Thank you for sharing.
(Still playing...with Lego...at 65!)
5) Shaving is optional
he's just actually plugging his channel mostly and how hard he works on it
Wow I have all of those
My husband and I are both engineers but we could never have reached my three preteen boys and connected w them the way Mark Rober just did with this encouragement. This was fantastic. And the hiccups he had just made it so much more relatable for everyone. Don’t stop doing what you are doing, Mark.
My thoughts exactly!!!
Well done MIT for inviting Mark to give this speech and congratulations Mark on a fantastic speech. I’m not a graduating student, I’m not even a young person, but I can still be inspired by your words. ❤
What an outstanding address. Mark has the experience to give a good advice but says it in a relatable way
He's VERY underrated, absolutely.
@@ronanotoole1973 well he does have 24 million subscribers on RUclips
It was super corny,.. let's be honest
This guy is the king of cringe
@@Mr.WeasleyEZPZ It's a commencement speech, not a comedy stand up. It's meant to be applicable for the students, but also tailored for the parents, children, and faculty members present. Speech was perfectly done in that regard.
Unforgettable speech, not just for the students but for anyone who is listening. I loved how he framed it in a very relatable way and never narcissistic like many successful people tend to do.
Watch commencement speeches like from sal khan, mark zuckerburg(yeah I know) they have amazinggg speeches.
As opposed to Steve Wozniak's Cal commencement. Watch it if you need an example of how NOT to address the graduating class of the country's #1 public university.
GO BEARS!
@@karlwithak. your comment means you've been co-opted by the VERY corporate entities who are perpetuating the disaster that is the American economic landscape.
Oh the ENDLESS rants, laments, belly-aching, and flippant comments about a "useless liberal arts education" we hear from both sides of the aisle.
If you think it's a problem to have a well-educated citizenry, then you obviously missed out on not only a quality higher education, you probably didn't finish high school, and barely middle school! Much of America's current problems are the DIRECT RESULT of having a low-information citizenry vote on and direct policy. Or simply reject public policy altogether. "Yeah, let's let the profiteering, self-centered, cost-cutting private sector determine what's best for America! What could go wrong?"
In other words, the problem is NOT college, university, or higher education in any sense. The problem is monetizing it for profit. Removing subsidy that existed for a few generations. Foisting the costs on the individual. In other words, abandoning New Deal principles wholesale. And then moving the career goalposts on Americans searching for work after graduating. "Oops, you didn't get a STEM degree! Minimum wage for you!" or "Oops, you got the WRONG STEM degree! Time to flip burgers!"
My parents attended college for free and very low cost. One paid ZERO tuition, the other paid such low tuition that summer jobs picking fruit paid the way. Bill Maher (a rich elite and hardly progressive) loves to say, "But Americans won't do THOSE JOBS!" (farm work) Well of COURSE they won't when it has ZERO payoff!
Traveling in Europe opens the eyes to most Americans. Anyone with a modicum of interest in public policy, economics, and world events quickly learns that not only to most Europeans know FAR MORE about the world than Americans, they KNOW MORE ABOUT AMERICA! Plus, they all speak two or more languages. In other words, they're FAR BETTER PREPARED to participate in society and formulate social policy that benefits their people, not the 1% at the top.
The more we bash higher education, the further behind we receded as a country.
@Karl with a K he is most definitely successful. Everyone has there own definition of success but I fully believe that having one of the largest social media platforms in the world spreading knowledge he’s learned, being a former nasa engineer and having his own company fits the criteria for success for him at least, no matter how much you are able to discredit each of the things I mentioned.
@Karl with a K seems like youre projecting your own unsuccessfulness here out of spite, mark rober is objectively a very successful person, and anyone whos graduating from a school like MIT has ample opportunity to thrive.
I think this is one of the best and most relatable speeches I ever heard, not just for graduating students, but also for any and every one in the society.
That third piece of advice is stellar!
and it's written by Chatgbt
@@kongcarrot1728 I think that was a joke bro 😂
Mark Rober was great in this one. Chadwick Boseman had a great one at Howard University that sticks out in my head as an amazing speech as well.
Watching this video invoked such an interesting feeling for me. I know that Mark is an accomplished engineer, and that he has a thriving RUclips channel, and that he is just generally successful. What caught me off guard, though, is that watching this, I felt proud of him. Watching his videos, I don't explicitly feel that way. He portrays himself in such a way that I feel like I'm hanging out with an old friend, and he's showing me his newest passion project. This video hit me straight in the feels for some reason, and I feel compelled to tell my friend who has never met me, that I'm proud of him, and to congratulate him. Disregarding all of his quantifiable accomplishments, I think that this is the true measure of his success. So, that being said, great job, Mark. Thank you for all that you do, and I'll see you in your next video!
Mark's advices:
1. Naive optimisim
2. Focus on progress, not on failures
3. Be social, work together with others
4. Apply confirmation bias in a positive way
How playfully anarchic for you to skip the last one
@@szalashut3310 such as "dont pay your student debt, have others do that for u" lol
@@MrDanielSolano007 people who graduate from MIT are either rich, or have scholarships. Try harder, loser 😉
@@MrDanielSolano007 actually if you look at it with a more positive out look it would be freeing up the newest generations to help advance society without the burden of financial destitución. Allowing them to chase their dreams and strive for greatness rather than work at the first job they can get because the loan payment is due. Listen to the speech again you missed the point.
And rock some good background music while doing so 😂
Mark Rober is the only RUclipsr actually certified to give a graduation speech to an M.I.T. graduate class
Nope, Derek from Veritasium, Grant from 3B1B, etc.
@@LaplacianFourier Destin from Smarter Every Day comes to mind as well.
I see we listen to a common . People
The guy from @Stuff Made Here could most definitely as well!
What Shane does is inspiring, but he needs to grow his presence a bit more. Such a sharp mind and makes tricky subjects digestible.
I've played this so many times and has made me cry every single time. So inspiring and relatable, whatever field you're in, whatever point in life you're at, wherever in the world you are. Mark Rober, thank you for sharing your amazingness to the world! ❤ from 🇬🇧
This man is an engineer through and through. . .he can slog through solving problems and engineering ways to do good in the world, but like most intellectuals, when put in front of so many others. . .faces a challenge unlike any other: public speaking. While he stumbled, he grew and through it all was exactly who he is. He doesn't write commencement speeches (ChatGPT does), but he does preach the greater good to the best minds. I love this guy.
He does this a lot in public interviews and to be honest I like it. Makes me feel the spotlight still makes him nervous and keeps him humble.
One of the best commencement speeches ever way to go MIT for allowing Mark Rober to speak to them all
BRUH...stop lying
This is not funny, not entertaining & definitely not useful knowledge
@@Mr.WeasleyEZPZ well 389 others would disagree. You have your own opinion and others have their own 👍
R/wooooshed
@@Mr.WeasleyEZPZ the 13k+ people who liked the video disagree with you lol
I’d never thought mark rober could be nervous….. but he is a person after all
i mean there is a huge difference between uploading a video vs talking to a live crowd
he really doesn't seem nervous tho
@@morganthomas9634 he really does seem nervous tho*
Mark isn’t a speaker, he’s an engineer bro.
@@morganthomas9634 not really sure which video you watched lol
I love this speech, it comes from the heart without drama, is peppered with humor without going overboard, and presents you with the realities of life. You just have to go for it and push yourself. There's no other way!
MR is one of my favorite RUclipsrs, you learn something from him.
It's a bit funny that you say that it comes from the heart.. When he said in the beginning that it was written by chatGPT :D
it came from the heart of ChatGPT🤖🤖❤️❤️
I don't know how he does it, but this man continues to impress me every time I see him. A truly gifted and honestly good person at heart. A rare person these days. If people were all more like Mark Rober, the world would be a much better, more interesting and definitely more entertaining place.
He’s gonna go far. He’s giving Feynman a run for his money.
I think this is the deepest, most personal thing he's ever done in his life. All respect to you, Mark Rober.
What about having a child?
He made a video opening up about his son's autism, that seems pretty personal
I guess you mean that he acknowledges that he is trying something new? But this seems to come across as more of an insult. You don't know him. Specifically, he made a video about his life as the parent of an autistic child.
you don't know what the most personal thing he's ever done in his life is, but I can agree with you that this is deep, and personal.
@@jeremyarcus-goldberg9543 I took that as "The deepest, most personal thing (to me/that connects with me)"
From a 70-something who has lived a full life, this speech speaks volumes of what is ahead. Congrats, graduates!
Is it scary to be old
Probably
It’s actually fun. You no longer care what you say or what anyone thinks about you. ;)
@@Theprofw2 I always think of older people as people in their youth, just more experienced and not up to date with the new generation as much lol. You’re a kid again, just with more experiences and story’s.
@@DukeTheMonkey. well said!!!
This is a masterpiece. Congrats to the MIT Class of 2023 and to Mark on the amazing speech!
I'm from México and I love Mark Robers RUclips videos, but this was very good and special. His personality, his Will to help and make a better world, his relationship with his family, nephews and nieces. Good choice to have him there. Congratulations Mark.
Mark needs to give himself more credit. He didn’t quit NASA and downgrade to RUclips. He quit NASA and became an educator to adults, teens, and children all over the world. People like Mark Rober and Grant Thompson (rest in peace) are the very reason I became SO deeply enthralled in engineering. Because of them, I think about how things work from the most complex machines to the most mundane of processes. Everything can be reverse engineered, and I love it. As a woman, it feels so nice knowing I don’t have to rely on the opposite sex to install a sink and faucet, do my own home, pool, and auto repairs, help others fix a car, or build furniture etc. Just the process of making something is very enjoyable to me. And I love taking things apart and putting them back together. I’ve become particularly obsessed with rockets and all their internals and how they’re built. Terran 1 was a SPECTACLE to watch. I also really love ships, and just general appliances for some reason. I like knowing how things work. I 100% attribute that to Mark Rober, as well as The King Of Random, Mr. Grant Thompson who is generally unrelated to this channel, but deserves my utmost respect for all the fun and amazing experiments I made and how much I learned from him. To this day we use so many of his builds during hurricanes. Or just for fun. Or practical uses. I love it. Same with Mark. We all owe him an incredible thank you. He’s taught us so much..for free. I know he makes money now, but you can tell..this is pure passion. This is purely sharing his knowledge and fun builds with us.
Rober doesn't think poorly of himself, he was joking about how it might look from someone else's perspective, someone who's not familiar with his work.
He knows. Like just listen to his speech...
Called being self deprecating, but he is, of course, doing this in a humorous manner.
being self-deprecating is really common in many English varieties (and other languages). It's even a strategy to HIGHLIGHT your level of accomplishment without looking prideful. It's a multi-purpose tool to become relatable and also build credibility. Your response shows that, at least in this case, his rhetorical move was successful.
Bro just wrote a whole book
This is absolutely the best commencement speech. I highly recommend every college and high school students to listen to this speech.
I agree
I could do a better job than this.. Toilet humor is not funny to intelligent adults
@@Mr.WeasleyEZPZ are you so upset because Mark's speech didn't fit the mainstream narratives like the other speeches?
If you have real intelligence, you wouldn't wait until April 2023 to create an account just to troll.
@@Mr.WeasleyEZPZcoming from a very intelligent adult of course
@@adamdorsky5465 Bro is unironically trying to be sheldon cooper.
As a graduating college student, this is by far one of the best advices I could have ever gotten. Props to Mark for an amazing speech!
That was one of the best commencement speeches I’ve heard. Great job Mr. Rober
Talked to him and his team after the speech, and props to Mark for trying to do something different with the drone. The amount of bureaucracy he and his team overcame is admirable. Thanks to Mark for such a great moment!
On god!

Average Reddit take
How can some not like Mark? Guy is a totally awesome human being.
What an inspiring commitment and challenge for those students. That's amazing Mark.
i just had a very bad letdown from my first important career step, this video hits in PERFECT TIME.
Thank you Mark and to anyone who reads this... Thank you.
You've got this 👍 My grandmother used to say that, when things don't work out, it's for a reason - it wasn't meant to be because something better is waiting around the corner, or the opportunity wasn't what you thought it would be and you've avoided a worse letdown. Disappointment hurts, but you will look back on this moment in a few years and think "if letdown X hadn't happened, I would have missed the better opportunities that have come my way since". Sometimes what feels like a curse at the time, feels like a blessing a few years later.
Stay strong and believe in the process. I wish you all the very best 💕 x
Ditto! Good luck on your next adventure!
@@A_-_T Thanks for this comment, it helped me.
Just brace yourself and work harder for whatever you'd like to be in life.
Last year I joined a company as a Design engineer even though my dream was to be a professor. I quit in December, prepared hard for one of the toughest exam in my country.
Fast forward to today, I am going to start masters in the best university in my country this fall.
The day I quit my job was hard, I never felt that low in my entire life. I felt like a failure, but looking back, I am grateful to myself that I didn't actually give up on believing.
You got this champ, never stop, never give up.
Did I write this? Took the words right out my mouth.
It's like my two favorite worlds connected!!! breaking into tears. my beloved engineer utuber is giving the MIT commencement speech!
Mark's life and speech truly embodies the values and spirit of MIT, love it!
seeing my kids growing up, being obsessed with maths and sports, and me trying to pass on exactly these advices and cannot wait for them to see what future has planned for them, this speech really makes me emotional. we need more of this leading by example for the better.
I wish I had a speech like this a few years ago, I have it now, thanks Mark Rober!
I love his message and delivery! It's playful, fun, serious and practical as well! I'm so grateful for the technology we have today that I'm able to see this from where I am!
Personally gone through some of these ideas since I got fired and started to travel around the world for cultural shock and challenges.
1, naive optimism pushed myself outta my comfort zone so many times and I ended up accumulating so many interesting experience.
2, reframing failures/challenge has given me so much confidence that I can overcome difficulty, and motivated me to keep going.
I would add another idea that: understanding an idea and experiencing an idea are two very different things. Whatever great ideas that you have heard of, make sure to personally go through it. Hearing and understanding an awesome ideas will turn you into an idea-worm, but personally going through those idea will change you.
Mark, as a son who just found out this week his mother has ALS this touched me a lot. I agree she is the most fundamental part of who I am. Your words echo my feelings perfectly. Overall great speech too .
Absolutely LOVE Rober & this speech did not disappoint! He’s pure gold.🌟
So glad he got to give the speech! Incredible advice
Some of the best pieces of advice I’ve ever heard. Mark is awesome
Mark Rober forgot to eat his basketball like he said on Dude Perfect video
Mark Rober is truly legendary. Incredible commencement speech, with advice that is meaningful even to those well past graduation 😅😁
Mark started really nervous and made a lot more mistakes, but by the end he was in the groove and flowing nicely. Proud of you Mark for doing this nerve-wracking thing and congratulations to the MIT Class of 2023.

Mark Rober is so genuine! Always an inspiration. Good on MIT for the invitation. All the best to the graduating class, go out there and change the world!
This has to be amongst the greatest of speeches ever, finely crafted with relatable metaphors and stories, he not only made a speech, he made it stick in our minds. Epic
Okay, this is the coolest and most spontaneous speech with the music background I ever watched. That ending part was astonishing. Wow congrats MIT 2023 ! 🎉🎓
Amazing speech by one of the most inspiring people ever. You have made science fun like the way it was dreamt of. Hats off to you, or in your style, hats flying off to you!
He ain’t going to shag you
I needed this, since I'm currently having problems on which college to choose and what course to take and I feel scared of choosing one because I am told that every choice always has a downside. This video told me that not moving forward and overthinking what I should do means that I am shying away from my responsibility. I should follow what I think is best for me since I am the one controlling my own decisions, and that mistakes and mishaps are part of life, inevitably. I just now hope that I can evade the things life throws at me just like Mark said, and that I would be guided to what I think is the right path. Thank you Mark, it was a great speech :>
I have had a pleasure to work with Mark Rober and he is the genuine deal. He wants to make the world a better place and he's going a great job at it.
Mark have an incredible speech and so cool how he connected with the students!
Up there with the Tom and Ray Magliozzi (Car Talk guys) MIT graduation speech. Rober is a shining (glitter-bomb-y) example of how to do creative problem solving. Play. Think of life as a fun puzzle you can solve with some really good friends and family. And even when you are trying to defeat "enemies" do it in a way that even they can laugh, and maybe learn, in the long run.
Thanks, Mark. I have not attended MIT, nor do I assume at 70 that I will ever do so, but your speech is not just for them but for everyone living and going through life as we know it today.
Thanks for making a better world.
Felix
Dear Mark, I just cannot stop educating myself with you. Congratulations.
Now that's what I'm talking about!! Rober hit it out of the park, I mean court! Seeing it fly up to the great dome was well GREAT! Loved his address to the 2023 graduates and his irreverence for some of the traditions. Thank you Mark for a fun time. SDG Course 18 '77
What a super, simple and readily applicable commencement speech. From one BYU grad to another, your address made me want to RISE AND SHOUT !
Stumbling on words showing imperfections and then making balancing acts this in its self is powerful message from people who have made inspirational and genuine contributions to the society at large. Every seconds shows creativity at its best.
“Naïve optimism” is great advice and that resonates a lot with me. I’ve tended to be someone who wants to plan out goals all the way. I feel I would have done more & better had I not done that.
One of the best commencement speeches I've ever heard.
I believe this commencement speech should be recommended to freshmen, vital lessons that would help navigate their college years all embedded in a 20 mins video.
Thanks Mark and the MIT team.
Such a special moment and handled like a real winner ! Congrats Mark and congrats to the new grads of all levels !!!
Smiling from ear to ear and from start to finish of this video!
My God!!! What a great dude! We are so lucky to have him around (on the planet)!
Super thankful for visionaries like him who want to share their knowledge and encourage others to learn. ❤
I am certain that this experience was just as important for all the students as it was to you! Much respect
I was there and I saw mark in person!! Truly an amazing public speaker and amazing guy. Very inspirational
What an incredible role model ❤ So glad this was published on RUclips for everyone to watch!
Great speech! Really spoke the language of MIT students. We are proud parents of an MIT Graduate who attended for 9 years and 3 degrees. What a privilege!
Man's always passionate in everything he does. Lucky you class of 2023, take this advice to heart
He is literally the best engineering personality to give the speech!
For the graduates, it’s an epic round off for full circle to the education they got.😊
Well said.
It's great we have engineers being pop icons. And impressive people.
Such a remarkable and inspirational speech 🎤 Mark!
So glad i clicked on this video. Ive never been to college but i definitely feel like im stuck in the river thanks for the inspirational words Mark ill take it one step at a time
What a day and age we live in that a full time RUclipsr, which wasn't even a profession when these young people were born, is giving the commencement speech at arguably the most prestigious engineering school in the western world. Absolutely, he is qualified to do so with his resume, but the reason he was requested was because of his social presence. With so much negativity in social realms, its absolutely refreshing seeing people like Mark, Destin (Smarter Every Day), N.D.T., and countless others educating and inspiring not only youth but all generations to think outside the box society has put you in. Society often sees engineers as serious, business driven individuals when, in reality, they are some of the most imaginative minds we have on Earth.
Great Job Mark, as always full attention to detail, working with your mind and heart gets you everywhere even if you fail!!
Mark not a popular RUclipsr for nothing he doesn't take life so seriously and lets his playful side free. I think this is why he is so successful at what he does 20 million subs. Creativity is fostered through almost stress free attitude towards projects. Most creative schools try to build this into the environment such as wood working classes, pottery and painting as well as even watching comedies. Stress can dry up creativity and Mark brings enjoyment into his thought process.
Very moving!
Didn’t know I was going to get emotional over a commencement speech but here we are, wiping tears n all… I needed this today
Can't wait for the sequel to this video in 2053!
Wow, this is so good. Mark you are an absolute hero, protect this man at all costs
This speech warmed my heart! Mark Rober, no matter how nerdy, is DA MAN! Congrats MIT grads! 🥇
Congratulations Mark! They could not have picked a better guy for their speaker. Enjoyed the speech tremendously and I will take advice to heart because you are right. Keep the videos coming. You’re wonderful!👏👏👏
Mark made his speech so relatable that he appealed to every demographic in the world. Respect
one of the best speeches i every heard and actually sat through all of it like a thrilling movie
I remember the covid science class streams mark did and his progress with public speaking then, and Im so impressed at how well he did in this speech!!!
cant wait to see this
Amazing speech! I hope to attend one of these ceremonies as a student some day.
one of the greatest speeches ive ever hard! I just graduated from NJIT great school but don't even recall what our guest speaker talked about but this one right here stuck with me.
Big big fan of what Mark is doing for engineering and science and doing it in away that fascinates young people.
I felt the nervousness and excitement and it was great! Loved your advices and you def seem to live by them. Tough live speech and you made it through, congrats :-D
This has to be one of the most interesting, relatable and helpful speeches I've ever heard. Or as Mark said it "If you want to cross the river of life, you’re going to get wet, you’re going to have to backtrack and that’s not a bug, that’s a feature." Thank you Mark for this incredible speech!
Mark is one of those humans who does a whole lot more good than bad and that's all you can ask of any human being!
So knocked it out of the park. Loved the tunic. Love what you bring to each post. Hey, Congrats to American's best dad, Dave.
I am a scientist and I just left my first company not because me or my company was not successful, but because despite the obvious successes, I wanted to go get more, to seek even further than what I have built so far, where I am feeling comfortable now. But I still have feelings of uneasiness due to uncertainties of my future.
And then I watched this speech, which hits so hard, sending it right home for me- that I should believe in my choice, move boldly to my next step.
Thank you so much Mark for delivering such a great speech! I am sure you inspired yet another great generation of scientists and engineers…!
His speech makes me want to attend an American University. What a legend!
American universities are amazing apart from woke woke culture… going to Stanford changed my life
Lol his speech doesn’t mean shit. America is only good for post bachelors. Everything up to bachelors is a mind fuck and it shows how americas education is weak and laughable. The stupidity also shows itself in the majority of the US population. They use the excuse of “well rounded education” to profit off you by providing you stupid classes that have already been taken multiple times. By the time you get to your major classes, you are fully exhausted from all the shit minor classes. Unless you have a strong sense of perseverance to keep following your dream even with all this, then you WILL NOT find American colleges any useful.

Also, to the original commenter, I'd recommend not putting all of your efforts into American universities (especially in bachelors). They are overly competitive and the application system is broken and has been broken for a long time. Unless you have hundreds of thousands of USD to burn or are perfect in almost every way( hard unless you've prepared for years). Especially in the last few years international applicants are heavily disadvantaged.
So unless you have a massive advantage the time you spend might not be worth it
My Fiance and i just bought our first house with plans of pretty extensive renovations. I've been pretty stressed about whether or not we can pull it off and about future market value and other unknowables. This speech was actually very helpful. Thanks Mark!
