    I live in Southern Cali, at 12:00 DurianRider really hit home, it took me 51 yrs to figure out that my meth head brother, my compulsive gambling mother, and my self-righteous jehovah witness father were my worst enemies when it came to my entrepreneurial ideas such as cannabis production, pursuing real estate, or just being in business for oneself.

    Dude I've watched your videos, I've taken the criticism and posts you've made with a pinch of salt, I don't know your personally but I would have to say this is your most realist video even thought it's 2 years old. Happy for you, keep pushing the passion and you deserve to be where you are. 💯

    DURIAN that is the best spoken, open advise and life lesson I've ever heard, people out there needs to here this if only to make them take a second and have a look at them selves. We all get caught up in this little bubble and complain about things were not happy about but most people never do anything about it. So true mate and fair play for being honest and open about your life . more people need to do this and maybe the world would be a better place. Love your videos and no nonsense no bullshit aproch to life. 💪👊👊

    Dude, I fell off when you were going after Phil post crash, but I appreciate this video, gives me some insight into where you’re coming from. The pay it forward notion you mention and the more money more problems is so real. Thanks for sharing this. I’ve not been to maybe quite the lows and possibly also not quite the highs, but I still hear this and can relate. Keep on keeping on man. Cheers.

    Being homeless is like being an urban survivor. Like you know the streets more than any of your friends, you slept with minimal things. It makes you wiser.

    Guys I would urge anyone to look at the life of Fred Beckey who recently died at the age of 94, he was a climber and mountaineer and lived life by his rules, people called him a dirt bag but honestly he did not have time for useless shit and did not suffer fools.. If you have passion for something there are ways to make it happen. However most people are basic and happy to have it jammed up their ass everyday wasting their life of excess to a grave stone and a long sleep...

    I was running an NCS program for young people to transition them from exams to further education or apprenticeships/work etc. One refused to do activities coz 'if I don't try I can't fail'. I told him he was failing by default by not trying, if try at least you have a chance
