    I’m 62 and, although I haven’t had nearly the interesting experiences as “the world’s most interesting man”, I think I’ve done ok. I was a tank crewman in the Army, I participated in an archeological dig in Belize, I’ve acted on stage, I’ve done a LOT of travelling to some quite unusual places, I’ve had several diverse careers, many varied hobbies and interests including most recently men’s style and clothing….

      @hoozat007 I agree with you. We, the "lesser" known gentlemen, have done some amazing things in our life.
      I want to complement wat you say. I served in the South African Air Force for ten years. Started as a Mirgae III avionics technician. Obtained my bachelor's degree in electronic engineering, thus becoming a technical officer, leaving with the rank of captain. This at the ripe age of 28. Thereafter, as an engineer, I worked on a rocket and satellite project for ARMSCOR. Then pursued a career in software projects. Currently unemployed because of my skin colour. Did motorcycle racing, adventure motorcycle off road riding, SCUBA diving. For three years did combat shooting. Weapon of choice was my .357 Mag. Insides of a car ir motorcycle's engine does not scare me. Throw in a bit of software coding.... languages; COBOL, FORTRAN, Turbo PASCAL . Leave mein the kitchen and I'll cook the pants off Jamie Oliver. Love history. Travelled Eu extensively, visiting many a place of interest. Love reading .... Shakespeare, Charles D, Rudyard K, Arthur Cllarke, etc.
      Know my wines.....know my music
      After two failed marriages. The first did not make 2 years, the other crashed after 23 years, I believe bro's before who's.
      Now at 63, I can hold my own.

      At age 61 I’ve spent 20 years in the army through several wars, I’m currently on my “bucket list” traveling on the road to every state since November 2020, living in hotels, state and national parks and army and navy bases. I’ve taken up rock and fossil digging, marksmanship shooting, rock climbing and learning a new language every year. Next year I will travel to other countries I lived in as a young soldier and even some I’ve never visited before. Your channel is awesome and I just subscribed to see more! Remember gents, you don’t have to live forever, just live well! 👍

    As Thoreau said, “Most men live lives of quiet desperation and go to the grave with the song still in them.” If Covid has taught us one thing its that none of us knows when this fantastic experience will end, which is why we need to make the most of every single day and take time to enjoy life not sit around feeling sorry for ourselves or lamenting over what might have been.

    It's really a very good video, long before the particular advice of a financial or business expert, the discipline of a sportsman or the artistic thirst of a musician, it's this mindset of love for adventure that is the most precious to me among all that can be advised to men to work in their lives.
    Life has never been more fun than when I decided to chase new experiences with the only purpose of experiencing it.
    Even at my young age, This will be what I want to strive for in my life, not even to become interesting or a gentleman, but because that's the only way life deserves to be lived, I'm at least convinced of it.

    I've never been the most handsome, best body or most money guy around, but the most interesting guy girls meet. They tell me all the time. Not that I ever did things my way in order to get girls (below average success, but I never cared).
    My advice to younger guys is to delete social media, read many books (preferably published before 1970), get some artistic skill, learn a language (or some), travel to not instagram hyped places, do not care too much about money (but don't neglect it either), run away from mainstream culture in general and never care for external validation.
    You've gotta get some histories to tell before you're 30. Later is posible, but not easy.
