Thank you all for watching! If you enjoy this episode, please do me a little favour and like the video 👍It helps us gauge what type of conversations you like! Thanks everyone!🙏
You need to have the first couple podcast. Honestly Leila, Alex's other half and business partner is an absolute powerhouse too!!! They're brilliant... ruclips.net/video/NI22-qg2Hio/видео.html
So grateful for this type of content, what you are doing is a huge value to me as I am giving up a small business to try new things these insights are incredibly valuable to me at this stage.. Thank you!
One lesson I've learnt from billionaires is to always put your money to work, and diversifying your investments. I'm planning to invest about $200k of my savings in stocks this year, and I know I’ll make profits.
You are right. The best approach I feel is to diversify investments by spreading investments across different asset classes like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown.
That makes sense. I’ve been using a financial market expert for two years now and I own a six-figure diversified portfolio from investing in stocks. I want to diversify more this year, though.
Annette Christine Conte is the licensed advisor I use and i'm just putting this out here because you asked. You can Just search the name. You’d find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment.
Amazing interview - I teared up when he talked about how his wife believed in him. It's 100% true - having a partner who you meet before you've had great success, who walks through hell with you and keeps telling you you're going to make it - that's the type of person so many of us want in our lives.
I have been blessed with my wife in that exact way, and you cannot even imagine what both of us have been through before we climbed out. From paralysis, to borderline homelessness, to now being in a position to swipe the card for other, less privileged peoples' groceries. This kid has been on an emotional journey, most people can only dream of living through. He has lived a full life at 36. MOST people wouldn't live a full life if you provided them with 200 years. I mean it.
YESSSSS I beat heroin addiction because my life became so miserable & so painful that I had enough strength to walk away & change EVERYTHING. Now I am living in a different state, have a 3 year old boy, & just started my own business a month ago. Coming up on 4 years clean. Pain is the best motivation.

Steven.. You are, in my opinion, THE BEST interviewer out there! The way you give room for people to fully express themselves is absolutely incredible. You create a safe space for all of themselves to exist and be heard. You have developed an impeccable skill and I admire you truly….
“I would sleep with you under a bridge if it came to that” brought me to tears how much love. He has the right one. Someone who shows you true unconditional love is the real blessing😢❤😊
I LOVE LOVE LOVE how Steven interviews… he asks very meaningful, relevant questions, then just quietly sits and let’s his guests freely share & essentially answer all the additional questions he was likely gonna ask them anyway… he’s such a composed professional. 👌🏾👏🏽👏🏽
Bro it's not that hard. Most podcasters are extroverts and they suck at keeping quiet. Steven is likely an introvert, which is why he's okay staying quiet.
*Today I reached $220k. I am really grateful for all the knowledge and information you have given me over the past few months. I started with $15k in January.*
I know that woman (Julie Gilbert) If you were born and raised in new York you'd know too, she's my family's Broker for 3yrs till now and a very good one if you asked me. No doubt she is the one that helped you get where you are!!!!
Man, he has his story so dialed in at this point. This was the most clear, well told version of his journey I have heard. Lots of nuggets I didn't catch previously. DCEO, thank you.
It really touched me when Alex spoke so highly about his wife and giving her credit for his success. I just hope more people would give credit to their partners who give them the moral and emotional support needed to achieve their goals. I'm more impressed with Alex now than ever before.
I have been binge watching your RUclips. Left a long term destructive relationship a year ago. Starting from nothing (literally), all over again. Nearly 60. Finally decided that the only barriers were the ones in my head. Your guest list has been the impetus. Don't have 2 coins to scratch together, but subscribed any way. On my own, far away from anyone, but I suddenly feel great. You are doing a great thing with these podcasts Stephen. Next time you hear from me, I'm going to having something to say. Thank you.
I never heard anyone using the same trick as me when problems feel overwhelming. I do the same thing. Not with a youtube video, but I sit down, close my eyes and imagine zooming out. See my house, my town, the country, the continent, the world, the universe, the universes....and I remind myself how small I am and how small my problems really are. Incredibly calming. Thanks for sharing this! I though I was alone in doing this. But I thing its a very useful tool.
At 17 mins Steven asks a question....& just stays quiet. And after Alex answers Steven still remains silent! That's why this podcast is unique. Remaining silent even after a question has been answered is a tactic detectives use; ppl tend to keep talking & give away their secrets. Steven is The Secret Whisperer.
Steven is just an amazing podcaster period...silence gives people the space to open up into who they really mean to be. Not many people have that skill but he definitely does.
I appreciate that silence. Not every interview has to be soo chatty and noisy. I think that introspective space is great for both the speaker and also for me as a listener.
The most popular investment portfolio strategies include diversification, where you spread investments across different asset classes to manage risk. Another is the growth strategy, focused on capital appreciation through high-risk, high-reward assets. Income-oriented strategies target regular income from dividend stocks or bonds. Finally, there's the value strategy, seeking undervalued assets for potential long-term gains.
According to Warren Buffett, dividends are less valuable for growing businesses and more suitable for established ones. Investing in companies that offer dividends might be seen as parking capital for steady returns, especially for those relying on portfolio income. This approach resembles bond investing, serving as a means of generating consistent earnings.
a downtrend offers an equally high-yielding avenue if you have the necessary skills and knowledge. This is why I've been using an investment advisor to scale up during this difficult time, and it's the only way I've been able to raise up to $150K in the last six months. It all comes down to technique. The downtrend gives you room to focus on the market and grow-substantially whether in the long or short run.
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Rebecca Nassar Dunne’” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
I just googled her and I'm really impressed with her credentials; I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get. I just scheduled a caII.
😭@17:18 “she believed in me” - I got teary eyed and a little choked up. That’s not just what men want, it’s what we women want too. I’m alone. A couple of months ago, I said to myself “I want / need someone to believe in me.” I am also digging deeper because “I need to believe in me, no matter what other people think.”🙏💝
yeah it also hits a bone in me too. its cool when its a person of your same gender but it hit different when its your partner/opposite gender. i think its sort of similar to parental thing... wanting to make mommy/daddy proud (for boys and girls respectively) and knowing you have value to the other gender enough to be wanted.
Alex is not pretentious, he’s a down to earth man who has paid the price “going for it.” I like that he said he works and likes it and aside from working out he has no hobbies but does like to work. This guy is my friend!
This is by far the best podcast interviews I’ve ever encountered on RUclips. It’s like listening to two friends catching up on life. Filled with incredible stories and powerful knowledge that’s easy to relate to. To be quite honest, I was hesitant at first with the entire video length at almost two hours. Needless to say, I didn’t want it to end. Thank you both for this!!! 😊
I don’t comment on videos all that much. But I have to say this, even just for my own sake: These are literally some of the most valuable words I have ever listened to.
Being honest, this was one of interviews where I sat down and watched everything (instead of having my AirPods in and doing other things). It was so engaging and Alex is so down to Earth and honest about his life and story. Steven always adapts his style to get the best out of the guests and here it was displayed again.
If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.
What he said about experiencing sales is so right. I worked a door to door sales job selling gas and electric all around the UK solely commission after I dropped out of University. Everyone laughed and mocked it, but I learned so much about people, resilience, body language, wants and needs, it was tough (100% not nice doing it in the snow either lol) but I felt more free than I ever did because I was learning MORE on the field than I was paying you £9000 a term in a classroom. Alex is such a cool guy, glad to see him on here finally!
Wow. Thanks for sharing that. I've been a bit timid to try door to door sales and admire anyone that tackles it head on. What was your success like in that job?
I'm happy to read your comment here. I fell out with my son last year coz he dropped out of university. Today, he successfully runs his own internet consultancy business.
I turned 50 grand into 2 million with my family telling me I’m wrong to daytrade. I head and still have no support from my family as I feel they’re actually envious which does happen. Now all I do is watch RUclips and do anything I please as much family has to work for their dreams. They won’t take my advice on health or nutrition and just keep doing what they like which is watching Netflix and TikTok. I used RUclips to self educate myself on finances and know more than my friends who have degrees in finance. They have no idea about being speculative and are happy with their S&P gains. Now as I watch this I’m validating myself as no one is doing it for me. Great video
You remind me of me. You're on a path of success, but your loved ones don't support you and as they continue down a path that leads to obesity and other negative outcomes. I commiserate with you. I truly am so so sorry you and I have to deal with it.
Good for you, I hope I can figure it all out too. All I want is to take better care of my family/parents/siblings/baby nephew 🙏🏼 I’m putting it out there
I think people severely underestimate the effect of authoritarian parent-child relationships. I resonate so deeply with his struggle stepping away from what his dad wanted for him. I experienced the same with my mother, and it f*cked me up mentally for years. The guilt, the shame, the feelings of self-doubt… and then the subsequent blaming of your parent for not feeling safe to express your authentic self in the first place… phew. It’s heart-breaking once you recognize that your parent only sees you as an extension of themselves vs a living, breathing individual with your own aspirations.
Some still have good intentions for their kids success. Then there's the narcissist parent who only lives to suck up your achievements as their award of "Great Parent" then marries step-mom who is an authoritarian bully to kids so he can hide behind her as a victim.."it's not me it's her". Still in the cycle of not being enough to either one.
I agree, and it occurred to me that Alex might STILL be trying to achieve because of his father. My mom has been dead for many years and she still lives in my head.
I had to pause this podcast 3 different times to digest the deep, soul impacting imformation Alex shared. This may very likely be the most impactful podcast relating to business that I’ve ever watched. I love that Alex started with his struggles becoming a successful entrepreneur. That made him so relatable. I’m totally following him outside this podcast. 💯 Thanks for making this interview happen Steven! You have my gratitude.
These interviews feel so much different than anything else I have seen till now. It really seems like the conversation is digging much deeper than what could be expected normally with such an ease. And it all brings a sense of authenticity. Thank you for providing such high quality content.
Agreed. He provides an environment that feels safe and folks practically lay bare their souls. He doesn't take advantage of their vulnerability and treats them with respect. Every episode I walk away with 'eureka' moments. 💡🙂
Did anyone else catch the part where the interviewer teared up thinking about his own happiness? I love this podcast! It's a transparent revelation of the human experience in all forms. Wealth, love, health, death etc. endless fascinating topics and the BIG questions that get answered on this show are like food for my mind and soul. Thank you!
For the first time in my working life, I stayed in bed for an hour after waking up today. Then I came downstairs and found this gem. It may be the single most important thing I ever listen to. Thank you.
Just started listening to your show man. I cannot believe you have never showed up on my motivational list. Keep doing what you’re doing. I’ve been up not crazy. And I’ve been down very down. But your shows and people like you help people realize they can be up and even greater than they were the last time. I appreciate your RUclips series my dude!!!!
After watching 5 of these interviews in a row; I want to say that I’m really impressed by your way of asking the right questions and sympathizing with the people you invite on the channel. It’s genuinely interesting and informative to see how you carry yourself as the authority in the interview.
There’s nothing like having the right woman by your side as you’re building. His emotion when speaking about his wife’s belief in him when he had nothing speaks VOLUMES. This is so be beautiful 💙🤧
I'm only half-way through this interview and it is already the best video I have ever seen in my entire life! I have been an entrepreneur for 30 years and just found myself nodding "YES, YES YES" the whole time. Absolutely brilliant- love you both!!! THANK YOU!
Absolutely love how you get your guests to engage so emotionally, makes them feel so relatable even though Alex is larger than life. So much love for the both of you guys!!!
Before watching this video I had literally said to my self "every person that becomes successful goes through something unique and has something unique to them that wakens them up and snaps them into the person that began the journey that got them where they are today, and here I am watching this video and Alex's thing was him realizing 100% for sure that his girlfriend/wife believes in him and he would never be alone... this hits home.
This interview was absolutely RIVETING. I couldn't stop listening. I've seen Alex on his own channel, but he was even more real and down-to-Earth here. You are an absolutely excellent interviewer with a lovely sense of curiosity, like you are getting to know a new friend. Truly remarkable. Thank you for sharing this (and all the other ones you've done; I got to know Mel Robbins because of you!) so keep crushing it!
Love your interviews. Thing is, the person had a business, but lost money on a bad deal. They started a new business with only $1,000, but had a $100,000 credit card to help build it. So, they didn't have just $1,000, but also had credit available. I am not saying it's not a great achievement obviously. I was in a similar situation, I started Amazon FBA an year ago and never looked back. Already crossed 120k\monthly NET profit.
You are 100% right. I am glad to hear about your success. I started Amazon FBA as well but little struggling, Do you mind to explain how to rank to best seller? And can you share where did you learn?
I disagree. The inner game is everything. Mastering yourself is 99% of the battle and everything else is trivial details that will fall into place on it's own. Anyone trying to fast forward to the "details" on how to make money still has the get rich quick mentality. It's not about what you need to do, it's who you need to become.
@@somerled5513 Well considering the first part of the podcast he talks about the dream his father expected of him was killing him Anxious's statement is spot on
Steven is not shying away from asking the difficult questions or playing the devil’s advocate. It really helps breaking down how his interviewees think which is what I’m here to learn!
I resonate with this episode 100%. Many people don't get wanting a goal to happen on a level that most would run away from . Thanks for allowing me the opportunity to find this recording and to benefit from knowing that I am not losing it.
To me, if you invest and have other income outside of dividends then you will be able to live off dividends without selling. Which means you can pass that on to your kids which will give them a leg up in life. $52k dividends received in 2022.
That's why it is advisable that you have to invest while you still have a regular job or earning a regular income, and do it constantly. You still need to have something that will keep you going even if you're investing. Good financial planning and money allocation is the key.
I had my share of ups and downs when I first started looking for a consistent passive income so I hired an expert advisor for aid, and following her advice, I poured some money in value stocks and digital asset, i accrued over $80K in dividends last year
Steven, this was one of the best interviews for me personally to sit and listen to. Was/is a dream of mine to start something, it's always appeared ellusive or incredibly specialist to own and run a business to me, and yes previous guests have shared their experiences but Alex's struggles described here and the rapid pivots to return to success were great and empowering. Hard work and ideation. Great interview
What a profound conversation between two people I'm ashamed to say I avoided for a while because I thought they were 'social media I made it, so can you type of bros'. I could not have asked better questions and what a simple intelligent, wise and heartfelt answers. Respect! Thank you
I actually did enjoy watching this. I'm actually completely new on this area of investing. I have a couple thousand$$ saved up ($245k to be precise) which i want to invest for long term and I know this sounds a bit dull but, I would like to know what advice or ideas you could give to start my investing journey.
Buy low sell high. Stick with a good company by either not selling when it’s going lower and/or buying more at that time. Almost always the good well managed companies will come back strong at some point. The other is to get yourself a financial-advisor that can provide you with entry and exit points on the shares/ETF you focus on.
Well, I recommend you make a diversification plan because it's been harder to build a good financial portfolio since COVID. My colleague suggested I hire an advisor. I did and I've actually made over $926K with my advisor's help during this market crash. She uses defensive strategies to protect my portfolio and make profits despite the ups and downs.
@josephbush Sure. There are a lot of independent advisors you might look into. But I only work with HEATHER LEE LARIONI and we have been working together for nearly four years. She has since provided entry and exit points on the securities I concentrate on. She's well-grounded and known, shouldn't be a hassle finding her page.
@marvishaN Thanks a lot for sharing, I just looked Heather Lee Larioni up on the web and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I will write her an e-mail shortly.
You work for 40yrs to have $1m in your retirement, Meanwhile some people are putting just $10k in a meme coin for just few months and now they are multimillionaires.I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life
Money is not real is just a contract we have agreed along and it changes every time so technically you can make money work for you rather you working for money and that's how the rich exists the 40 years of work is not rich if he didn't spent 1 penny he still hasn't made 10 million so ya no yon need money to work for you don't become a slave your welcome every one
I’ve been Alex for years and can confirm that he is changing for the better. He initially came off as cold and heartless, but now he’s learned that there’s more to it than getting what you want out of people. Love to see it 👏🏽
35:00 - Alex is best at 1:33:56 - applying skills across markets 1:37:02 - biggest tax we pay is ignorance 1:40:47 - belief is the sticking point 1:43:06 - stages of earning
These are extremely useful rules for anyone looking to grow rich. Unfortunately, the majority of individuals that see this video will be unable to implement the ideas. We may not like to acknowledge it, but as Warren Buffett famously stated, investing is like any other profession: it takes a certain amount of knowledge. It's no surprise that some people are losing a lot of money during the bear market, while others are profiting by hundreds of thousands. I'm just not sure how they do it. I now have around $570k to invest in the market.
Understanding personal finances and investing will most likely result in increased financial freedom. Individuals who understand money and investing may make sound judgments about how to save, spend, and invest their money. I know someone who made more than $350,000 in this recession-influenced market, but to the best of my knowledge, it was done through a financial advisor.
A lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850k....
“LAURELYN GROSS POHLMEIER ’’ is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
i am going to look her up, I have about $81k i want to start with, might be small but it's better than nothing though. Since the 08 crash is playing out again
Engrossing and fascinating. Alex's honesty and straight talking - combined with your insightful questions - made this one of the best episodes so far. I love how you listen, process and then ask a pertinent question. Keep 'em coming Steve! Wonderful!
I love Alex man. Procrastinated on watching this one like a weekly tv show until I was able to just listen. Too good to drive to. Cheers to you guys for getting him
Listened to both this and the Modern Wisdom episode with Alex on my morning walk and workout today. This man is full of motivational gems and actionable advice. Cannot recommend $100M Offers enough and I can't wait to read the follow-up this year.
This show just changed my life. Maybe even this episode specifically. how do you get motivated to change? “For me? I hated my current existence” “change happens when the pain of staying the same becomes greater than the pain of making a change”. Wow, I can finally put it into words.
What touched me the most about this interview is when he talked about the argument he had with a family member who said they wouldn't want his life and how he responded to it. When you're ambitious in your family, other family members will slow you down out of love but just don't get it.
I’m not sure what was more surprising.. The fact that Steven was able get Alex to open up on a more emotional level… Or the fact that Alex is actually wearing pants and shoes vs shorts and crocs 😂 Love this one !
Never heard of him before and it was one of the most heartfelt, honest, and vulnerable interviews I have seen in a long time maybe ever. The old-beat-up car story was worth watching.
As I started to educate myself and focus on investing, business and making money my ultimate goal. I was constantly thinking about death. None of my peers at the time understood what I was talking about. Now hearing Alex talk about death, my eyes opened.
Listened to this only yesterday. Hands down my favorite episode of all times. Alex is a true inspiration no matter whether you agree with everything he says, and Steven simply does great interviews. The way he’s able to wait when there’s a quiet moment to push his guests to share more is just fun to watch. Keep them coming!
Dude Alex is so smart. The way he answered “do you believe in yourself” He didn’t want to say yes because I feel he knows that one doesn’t “believe” in oneself. You know yourself. Belief is for religion. Knowing yourself is for reality.
I really appreciated the way he answered that too. For me it was refreshing to hear a more pragmatic answer than the usual hippy, self-help esoteric responses this kind of question invites. His philosophy of life comes down to three or four basic truths that he consistently highlighted so it became a bit repetitive when Stephen insisted on asking existential questions :D
I know the feeling of having a parent who only wants a certain kind of you and not you. It’s terrible to be a child loving such a person. I hope that with his wife and freedoms he finds his serenity! Such an interesting man, thank you for the episode, Steven!
Have you ever considered your parent had pain in their childhood and that led to them treating you that way? Have you considered that they acted that way for you and not to hinder you? Have you ever considered telling your parent how they make you feel? Parents are just people like you and I. Alot of children hold grudges over mistakes that any other could also make. Maybe your parents actions kept you on a path? It seems they care deeply for you. A child's perception of a parent is just that. Because they've never patented. Judge them only after you have parented. Then you'll understand much better.
This is one of the few maybe even the only comment on this video that is not financial which makes me wonder if the rest of the people even listened to what was discussed here.
I agree with the OP. It sounds like his father was a toxic tiger parent. Good on him for standing up to his father. Never live your lost dreams through your children. It molds you into something 9 times out of 10 you'll be unhappy with. Thank God my parents weren't this way.
Things appear strange right now. The value of the US dollar is declining due to inflation, but it is increasing in comparison to other currencies and commodities such as gold and real estate. People are flocking to the dollar because they believe it is safer. I'm worried that rising inflation will cause my $420,000 in retirement funds to lose value. What else could we do with our money?
Personally, I would say have a mentor. Not sure where you will get an experienced one, but if your knowledge of the market is limited, it seems like a good bet.
THE MOST SIGNIFICANT LESSON I GAINED FROM THE STOCK MARKET IS THAT UNCERTAINTY PREVAILS, EMPHASIZING THE IMPORTANCE OF HUMANITY. ADHERING TO A LONG-TERM STRATEGY WITH A COMPETITIVE EDGE IS KEY.
As an investing enthusiast, I often wonder how top level investors are able to become millionaires off investing. . I’ve been sitting on over $545K equity from a home sale and I’m not sure where to go from here, is it a good time to buy into stocks or do I wait for another opportunity?
I agree. Based on personal experience working with an investment advlsor, I currently have $985k in a well-diversified portfollo that has experienced exponential growth. It's not only about having money to invest in st0cks, but you also need to be knowledgeable, persistent, and have strong hands to back it up.
There are a lot of independent advisors you might look into. But i work with Viviana Marisa Coelho and I have been working together for nearly four years, and she is excellent. You could proceed with her if she satisfies your discretion. I endorse her.
Loved how you understand your audience, and acted as our voice to ask Alex the questions that we would love to hear about. For me, it was about what his partner meant to me in his time of self doubt, and his advice on self belief and taking the leap. Absolutely amazing episode.
This is one of my favourite DOAC episodes. What an absolutely amazing human Alex Hormozi is! I glimpsed a side of him that I’ve not seen in his other videos. Your interview shines a spotlight on his brilliance. Thank you Steven 🙏🏾 I am super grateful✨
The way he speaks of his wife, I can only hope one day someone speaks of me in this way… working on building the characteristics now to drive this type of energy my way in the future🙏🏽 To Laila’s credit, she saw that he was not just “trying”, but pouring his heart & soul into this project/ business, then into hers… she saw the profitability of the businesses & the work ethic of the man... she knew she was NOT risking it all for a loser; she KNEW she had a winner who was just caught up in a series of unfortunate events- so ladies, understand who you’re supporting & if/when it makes sense to stay or leave. She understood this. Excellent interview
Internet is full of tough guys and macho and "I will kill you'' dudes, but you rarely get to see their real face. Its good to know that your superheroes also struggle and get emotional.
He's in tearing upbecause all he wanted was a little encouragement (from his dad), someone who believed in him. He found that in this wife instead. And he's right, I think that's what most of us want and need.. encouragement. It's the same thing that's making Jordan Peterson tear up every time it gets brought up. There are so many men (and women) out there that never got any encouragement and it's truly sad. The best thing you could ever do with your life right now, is to inspire and encourage the people around you. That's all you have to do.
I can relate to this 1000% especially the part about not wanting to wake up. I’m so glad he was so transparent because I’ve shared this with people that just didn’t get it, I dont blame them for that but you do tend to feel like it’s only you feeling this way.
This is incredible advice. If you are in enough pain OR you want it bad enough, then you’ll do what it takes to get out of your situation. If you’re stuck in the situation and can’t get yourself to get out, maybe it’s not for you.
Thank you! I am 18 years old at the moment. Because of you I am able to support my parents with their financial problems. Because of you I had advice and motivation to start a Creative agency. Because of you I was able to sign my first client at only a age of 18! I can't thank you enough. Someday I will be able to give something back to you
I relate to this whole father and son scene he just told, it's just that I couldn't make it upto my father as he passed away, I couldn't make him proud nor get my closure and make things work, guess everybody are not the same and deserving, but I bet on one experience if parents staying on your side love them or if they are against you still love them with patient and respect, we are in this world through them. Everything happens for a reason ...
I have no doubt that your father would be proud of you NOW. I think in the afterlife (if you believe in that--I do) we continue to learn and grow and watch our loved ones with pride. Just a thought. No disrespect if you don't believe that sort of thing. I've just read/watched too many stories about near-death experiences (NDEs) and so I fully believe we go on, and we are all still connected.
I heard this from a previous department chair.. "for every successful man, there is an even more successful woman behind them".. I love your story!! I'm inspired!
This crazy how parallel our stories are… different industry and not as much money but amazing to hear this story. Im in the trenches and need to hear this rn. Thank you Alex.
Nobody can become financially successful overnight. They put in background work but we tend to see the finished part. Fear is a dangerous component, hindering us from taking bold steps we need in other to reach our goals. you have to contend with inflation, recession, decisions from the Feds and all. I was able to increase my portfolio by $589k in months. You have to seek for help in the right places.
I think it's not always about fear. Sometimes realistic factors discourage people from reaching their goals in life. For example, I have tried to invest in the stock market several times, but have always been put off by fluctuations in the value of shares.
@@Aziz__0 Given that we are not accustomed to such uncertain markets, the fact that the US stock market has been on its longest bull run ever makes the widespread anxiety and excitement comprehensible. There are opportunities if you know where to go, as you noted that it wasn't difficult for me to earn more than $780k in the previous 10 months. Since I was aware that I would need a reliable and strong plan to get through these tough times, I engaged a portfolio advisor.

This dude is the realist man ever. His insight on the use of pain, and the fact that you need to put in the time to get good at anything, proves he knows the secret of life.
I think the reason you bring out so much more in your guests is because you’re searching for educating yourself with every interview. It’s a great environment to be a part of.
People find what they are into/good at, and have their passion, motivation to work very hard at it. Couple that with the support they get along the way...That's the difference between those that make it and those that don't. That's it...this interview is just another example of such a person.
Thank you all for watching! If you enjoy this episode, please do me a little favour and like the video 👍It helps us gauge what type of conversations you like! Thanks everyone!🙏
You need to have the first couple podcast.
Honestly Leila, Alex's other half and business partner is an absolute powerhouse too!!! They're brilliant...

So grateful for this type of content, what you are doing is a huge value to me as I am giving up a small business to try new things these insights are incredibly valuable to me at this stage.. Thank you!
Subscribed and liked! Can't believe I wasn't subscribed. Watched so many of the podcasts already. Thanks for all your great work!
You're an outstanding interviewer. Thanks for extracting their story so well
One lesson I've learnt from billionaires is to always put your money to work, and diversifying your investments. I'm planning to invest about $200k of my savings in stocks this year, and I know I’ll make profits.
You are right. The best approach I feel is to diversify investments by spreading investments across different asset classes like bonds, real estate, and international stocks, they can reduce the impact of a market meltdown.
That makes sense. I’ve been using a financial market expert for two years now and I own a six-figure diversified portfolio from investing in stocks. I want to diversify more this year, though.
This is very insightful. Hope you don't mind me asking you to recommend your advisor?
Annette Christine Conte is the licensed advisor I use and i'm just putting this out here because you asked. You can Just search the name. You’d find necessary details to work with to set up an appointment.
She appears to be well-educated and well-read. I ran a Google search for her name and came across her website; thank you for sharing.
Amazing interview - I teared up when he talked about how his wife believed in him. It's 100% true - having a partner who you meet before you've had great success, who walks through hell with you and keeps telling you you're going to make it - that's the type of person so many of us want in our lives.
Having this in your life you’re already rich. I would die happy if I had this in my life, regardless of any successes.
yes, exactly, if there is a takeaway from this is "get yourself a person who will believe in you"
What time in the video did he speak about his wife
I have been blessed with my wife in that exact way, and you cannot even imagine what both of us have been through before we climbed out. From paralysis, to borderline homelessness, to now being in a position to swipe the card for other, less privileged peoples' groceries. This kid has been on an emotional journey, most people can only dream of living through. He has lived a full life at 36. MOST people wouldn't live a full life if you provided them with 200 years. I mean it.
I did as well, then I grabbed her and told her I loved her again.
How these guests have been on so many podcasts yet you manage to get them to open up in a way that they haven’t ever before is truly inspirational 👏🏻

Steven.. You are, in my opinion, THE BEST interviewer out there! The way you give room for people to fully express themselves is absolutely incredible. You create a safe space for all of themselves to exist and be heard. You have developed an impeccable skill and I admire you truly….
“I would sleep with you under a bridge if it came to that” brought me to tears how much love. He has the right one. Someone who shows you true unconditional love is the real blessing😢❤😊
Alex is a weapon. I'm confident he is going to be one of the most influential people of our time. He is simply too good at what he pays attention to.
Yeah, advertising.
🤷 he's just a salesman 🤷 if you watch enough of his videos he says he made money via gyms by milking customers as much as possible 😐
@@_cloudface_ you're talking about sales as it's unethical job lol. It's the one of the important skills to drive the economy.
@Haga Jeserem 💯
@@_cloudface_ he very clearly isn't "just a salesman".
I LOVE LOVE LOVE how Steven interviews… he asks very meaningful, relevant questions, then just quietly sits and let’s his guests freely share & essentially answer all the additional questions he was likely gonna ask them anyway… he’s such a composed professional. 👌🏾👏🏽👏🏽
Bro it's not that hard. Most podcasters are extroverts and they suck at keeping quiet. Steven is likely an introvert, which is why he's okay staying quiet.
*Today I reached $220k. I am really grateful for all the knowledge and information you have given me over the past few months. I started with $15k in January.*
Please how ?
Am a born Christian and sometimes I feel so down 😭 of myself because of low finance but I still believe God 😔
It's Julie Gilberts doings, she's changed my life. A BROKER- like her is what you need.
$356K monthly is something you should feel differently about....
I know that woman (Julie Gilbert)
If you were born and raised in new York you'd know too, she's my family's Broker for 3yrs till now and a very good one if you asked me. No doubt she is the one that helped you get where you are!!!!
Man, he has his story so dialed in at this point. This was the most clear, well told version of his journey I have heard. Lots of nuggets I didn't catch previously. DCEO, thank you.
It really touched me when Alex spoke so highly about his wife and giving her credit for his success. I just hope more people would give credit to their partners who give them the moral and emotional support needed to achieve their goals. I'm more impressed with Alex now than ever before.
She didn’t just offer emotional support, they actually built the business together
I have been binge watching your RUclips. Left a long term destructive relationship a year ago. Starting from nothing (literally), all over again. Nearly 60. Finally decided that the only barriers were the ones in my head. Your guest list has been the impetus. Don't have 2 coins to scratch together, but subscribed any way. On my own, far away from anyone, but I suddenly feel great. You are doing a great thing with these podcasts Stephen. Next time you hear from me, I'm going to having something to say. Thank you.
You've already said something profound: No matter your past or your circumstances, no matter your age, it's never too late to believe in yourself.
Awesome. It’s never too late! Best of luck! 🎉
Your are significant!
You are incredible. Your comment inspired ME. Keep going, continue seeking and learning!
Sending you abundance ❤
I never heard anyone using the same trick as me when problems feel overwhelming. I do the same thing. Not with a youtube video, but I sit down, close my eyes and imagine zooming out. See my house, my town, the country, the continent, the world, the universe, the universes....and I remind myself how small I am and how small my problems really are. Incredibly calming. Thanks for sharing this! I though I was alone in doing this. But I thing its a very useful tool.
At 17 mins Steven asks a question....& just stays quiet. And after Alex answers Steven still remains silent! That's why this podcast is unique. Remaining silent even after a question has been answered is a tactic detectives use; ppl tend to keep talking & give away their secrets.
Steven is The Secret Whisperer.
Steven is an introvert. That's why he's content to stay quiet.
Steven is just an amazing podcaster period...silence gives people the space to open up into who they really mean to be. Not many people have that skill but he definitely does.
I appreciate that silence. Not every interview has to be soo chatty and noisy. I think that introspective space is great for both the speaker and also for me as a listener.

The most popular investment portfolio strategies include diversification, where you spread investments across different asset classes to manage risk. Another is the growth strategy, focused on capital appreciation through high-risk, high-reward assets. Income-oriented strategies target regular income from dividend stocks or bonds. Finally, there's the value strategy, seeking undervalued assets for potential long-term gains.
According to Warren Buffett, dividends are less valuable for growing businesses and more suitable for established ones. Investing in companies that offer dividends might be seen as parking capital for steady returns, especially for those relying on portfolio income. This approach resembles bond investing, serving as a means of generating consistent earnings.
a downtrend offers an equally high-yielding avenue if you have the necessary skills and knowledge. This is why I've been using an investment advisor to scale up during this difficult time, and it's the only way I've been able to raise up to $150K in the last six months. It all comes down to technique. The downtrend gives you room to focus on the market and grow-substantially whether in the long or short run.
Could you be kind enough with details of your advsor please?
Certainly, there are a handful of experts in the field. I've experimented with a few over the past years, but I've stuck with ‘’Rebecca Nassar Dunne’” for about five years now, and her performance has been consistently impressive.She’s quite known in her field, look-her up.
I just googled her and I'm really impressed with her credentials; I reached out to her since I need all the assistance I can get. I just scheduled a caII.
😭@17:18 “she believed in me” - I got teary eyed and a little choked up. That’s not just what men want, it’s what we women want too. I’m alone. A couple of months ago, I said to myself “I want / need someone to believe in me.” I am also digging deeper because “I need to believe in me, no matter what other people think.”🙏💝

yeah it also hits a bone in me too. its cool when its a person of your same gender but it hit different when its your partner/opposite gender. i think its sort of similar to parental thing... wanting to make mommy/daddy proud (for boys and girls respectively) and knowing you have value to the other gender enough to be wanted.

Alex is not pretentious, he’s a down to earth man who has paid the price “going for it.” I like that he said he works and likes it and aside from working out he has no hobbies but does like to work. This guy is my friend!
This is by far the best podcast interviews I’ve ever encountered on RUclips. It’s like listening to two friends catching up on life. Filled with incredible stories and powerful knowledge that’s easy to relate to. To be quite honest, I was hesitant at first with the entire video length at almost two hours. Needless to say, I didn’t want it to end. Thank you both for this!!! 😊
I don’t comment on videos all that much. But I have to say this, even just for my own sake: These are literally some of the most valuable words I have ever listened to.
Being honest, this was one of interviews where I sat down and watched everything (instead of having my AirPods in and doing other things). It was so engaging and Alex is so down to Earth and honest about his life and story. Steven always adapts his style to get the best out of the guests and here it was displayed again.
Secret Pathway To Triumph is so unique. I can’t believe I hadn’t heard about it sooner. It’s amazing how life-changing this can be.
If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.

What he said about experiencing sales is so right. I worked a door to door sales job selling gas and electric all around the UK solely commission after I dropped out of University. Everyone laughed and mocked it, but I learned so much about people, resilience, body language, wants and needs, it was tough (100% not nice doing it in the snow either lol) but I felt more free than I ever did because I was learning MORE on the field than I was paying you £9000 a term in a classroom. Alex is such a cool guy, glad to see him on here finally!
Wow. Thanks for sharing that. I've been a bit timid to try door to door sales and admire anyone that tackles it head on. What was your success like in that job?
I'm happy to read your comment here. I fell out with my son last year coz he dropped out of university. Today, he successfully runs his own internet consultancy business.
I turned 50 grand into 2 million with my family telling me I’m wrong to daytrade. I head and still have no support from my family as I feel they’re actually envious which does happen. Now all I do is watch RUclips and do anything I please as much family has to work for their dreams. They won’t take my advice on health or nutrition and just keep doing what they like which is watching Netflix and TikTok. I used RUclips to self educate myself on finances and know more than my friends who have degrees in finance. They have no idea about being speculative and are happy with their S&P gains. Now as I watch this I’m validating myself as no one is doing it for me. Great video
Do you teach how to trade?
Good on you brother... you should be proud no matter what ,... only very few that chase that dream and have success.
You remind me of me. You're on a path of success, but your loved ones don't support you and as they continue down a path that leads to obesity and other negative outcomes. I commiserate with you. I truly am so so sorry you and I have to deal with it.
Good for you, I hope I can figure it all out too. All I want is to take better care of my family/parents/siblings/baby nephew 🙏🏼 I’m putting it out there
I’d love your advice please 🙏🏼
I think people severely underestimate the effect of authoritarian parent-child relationships. I resonate so deeply with his struggle stepping away from what his dad wanted for him. I experienced the same with my mother, and it f*cked me up mentally for years. The guilt, the shame, the feelings of self-doubt… and then the subsequent blaming of your parent for not feeling safe to express your authentic self in the first place… phew. It’s heart-breaking once you recognize that your parent only sees you as an extension of themselves vs a living, breathing individual with your own aspirations.
I agree!
Some still have good intentions for their kids success. Then there's the narcissist parent who only lives to suck up your achievements as their award of "Great Parent" then marries step-mom who is an authoritarian bully to kids so he can hide behind her as a victim.."it's not me it's her". Still in the cycle of not being enough to either one.
I agree, and it occurred to me that Alex might STILL be trying to achieve because of his father. My mom has been dead for many years and she still lives in my head.
So well said!
But if we don't make peace with it somehow then we can't let go and it will manifest in negative ways later down the road.
I had to pause this podcast 3 different times to digest the deep, soul impacting imformation Alex shared. This may very likely be the most impactful podcast relating to business that I’ve ever watched. I love that Alex started with his struggles becoming a successful entrepreneur. That made him so relatable. I’m totally following him outside this podcast. 💯
Thanks for making this interview happen Steven! You have my gratitude.
What was said that was so different dr joe Dispenza or Napoleon hill really touch on all this ?
I must agree. Same for me! 🎉
I see a comment like this on each of the interviews on this channel. What a powerful resource this channel can be for those who use it.
Really inspiring interview! Thank you!
These interviews feel so much different than anything else I have seen till now. It really seems like the conversation is digging much deeper than what could be expected normally with such an ease. And it all brings a sense of authenticity. Thank you for providing such high quality content.
Agreed. He provides an environment that feels safe and folks practically lay bare their souls. He doesn't take advantage of their vulnerability and treats them with respect. Every episode I walk away with 'eureka' moments. 💡🙂

Slowly becoming my favorite podcast. Love it when the level of conversation matches the level of guest!
Did anyone else catch the part where the interviewer teared up thinking about his own happiness? I love this podcast! It's a transparent revelation of the human experience in all forms. Wealth, love, health, death etc. endless fascinating topics and the BIG questions that get answered on this show are like food for my mind and soul. Thank you!
For the first time in my working life, I stayed in bed for an hour after waking up today. Then I came downstairs and found this gem. It may be the single most important thing I ever listen to. Thank you.
The man, the emotions, the struggle, SUCCESS...All in one in this one right here. Kudos to the whole team. You really hit home with this one!!! DOC
Just started listening to your show man. I cannot believe you have never showed up on my motivational list. Keep doing what you’re doing. I’ve been up not crazy. And I’ve been down very down. But your shows and people like you help people realize they can be up and even greater than they were the last time. I appreciate your RUclips series my dude!!!!
After watching 5 of these interviews in a row; I want to say that I’m really impressed by your way of asking the right questions and sympathizing with the people you invite on the channel. It’s genuinely interesting and informative to see how you carry yourself as the authority in the interview.
"Understanding how to get more for what you put in, IS the game." This one sentence!!! Thank you.
There’s nothing like having the right woman by your side as you’re building. His emotion when speaking about his wife’s belief in him when he had nothing speaks VOLUMES. This is so be beautiful 💙🤧
I'm only half-way through this interview and it is already the best video I have ever seen in my entire life! I have been an entrepreneur for 30 years and just found myself nodding "YES, YES YES" the whole time. Absolutely brilliant- love you both!!! THANK YOU!
Absolutely love how you get your guests to engage so emotionally, makes them feel so relatable even though Alex is larger than life. So much love for the both of you guys!!!
Before watching this video I had literally said to my self "every person that becomes successful goes through something unique and has something unique to them that wakens them up and snaps them into the person that began the journey that got them where they are today, and here I am watching this video and Alex's thing was him realizing 100% for sure that his girlfriend/wife believes in him and he would never be alone... this hits home.
This interview was absolutely RIVETING. I couldn't stop listening. I've seen Alex on his own channel, but he was even more real and down-to-Earth here. You are an absolutely excellent interviewer with a lovely sense of curiosity, like you are getting to know a new friend. Truly remarkable. Thank you for sharing this (and all the other ones you've done; I got to know Mel Robbins because of you!) so keep crushing it!
The most anticipated podcast ever.. Can't wait to dig dive into this one.
Love your interviews. Thing is, the person had a business, but lost money on a bad deal. They started a new business with only $1,000, but had a $100,000 credit card to help build it. So, they didn't have just $1,000, but also had credit available. I am not saying it's not a great achievement obviously. I was in a similar situation, I started Amazon FBA an year ago and never looked back. Already crossed 120k\monthly NET profit.
You are 100% right. I am glad to hear about your success. I started Amazon FBA as well but little struggling, Do you mind to explain how to rank to best seller? And can you share where did you learn?
You need to seII the the largest qty of units on a daily basis within your sub-category.
the book you learned from is Passamzalgo right?
Correct
I disagree. The inner game is everything. Mastering yourself is 99% of the battle and everything else is trivial details that will fall into place on it's own. Anyone trying to fast forward to the "details" on how to make money still has the get rich quick mentality. It's not about what you need to do, it's who you need to become.
100% loved this guy. Alex is a human being that fully loves and understands itself❤ His life is a continuous cycle of fullness, knowing and learning
“You have to let others peoples dreams for you die, for yours to live” - Alex
This statement hit harder than the Tzar bomb
Nobody but maybe your parents have dreams for you. 99% of people you know don't even think about you.
Perfectly stated.
@@somerled5513 Well considering the first part of the podcast he talks about the dream his father expected of him was killing him Anxious's statement is spot on
@@KristyMaCoy True.. but the 'other people' bit makes it sound broader.
Steven is not shying away from asking the difficult questions or playing the devil’s advocate. It really helps breaking down how his interviewees think which is what I’m here to learn!
I resonate with this episode 100%.
Many people don't get wanting a goal to happen on a level that most would run away from .

As a foreigner myself, I love both of these two guys! I listen to a DOAC episode every morning before my entrepreneurial day begins 😅 thank you 🙏🏾
Steven is great at getting the guests to a point where they say “I didn’t think we were gonna go here”
To me, if you invest and have other income outside of dividends then you will be able to live off dividends without selling. Which means you can pass that on to your kids which will give them a leg up in life. $52k dividends received in 2022.
That's why it is advisable that you have to invest while you still have a regular job or earning a regular income, and do it constantly. You still need to have something that will keep you going even if you're investing. Good financial planning and money allocation is the key.
I had my share of ups and downs when I first started looking for a consistent passive income so I hired an expert advisor for aid, and following her advice, I poured some money in value stocks and digital asset, i accrued over $80K in dividends last year
I’ve been down a ton, I’m only holding on so I can recoup, I really need help, who is this investment-adviser that guides you?
Her name is “Sonya Lee Mitchell” can't divulge much. Most likely, the internet should have her basic info, you can research if you like
I just checked her out and I have sent her an email. I hope she gets back to me soon.
Steven, this was one of the best interviews for me personally to sit and listen to.
Was/is a dream of mine to start something, it's always appeared ellusive or incredibly specialist to own and run a business to me, and yes previous guests have shared their experiences but Alex's struggles described here and the rapid pivots to return to success were great and empowering.
Hard work and ideation.
Great interview
What a profound conversation between two people I'm ashamed to say I avoided for a while because I thought they were 'social media I made it, so can you type of bros'.
I could not have asked better questions and what a simple intelligent, wise and heartfelt answers.
Respect! Thank you
I actually did enjoy watching this. I'm actually completely new on this area of investing. I have a couple thousand$$ saved up ($245k to be precise) which i want to invest for long term and I know this sounds a bit dull but, I would like to know what advice or ideas you could give to start my investing journey.
Buy low sell high. Stick with a good company by either not selling when it’s going lower and/or buying more at that time. Almost always the good well managed companies will come back strong at some point. The other is to get yourself a financial-advisor that can provide you with entry and exit points on the shares/ETF you focus on.
Well, I recommend you make a diversification plan because it's been harder to build a good financial portfolio since COVID. My colleague suggested I hire an advisor. I did and I've actually made over $926K with my advisor's help during this market crash. She uses defensive strategies to protect my portfolio and make profits despite the ups and downs.
@marvishaN Who is your financial coach, do you mind hooking me up?
@josephbush Sure. There are a lot of independent advisors you might look into. But I only work with HEATHER LEE LARIONI and we have been working together for nearly four years. She has since provided entry and exit points on the securities I concentrate on. She's well-grounded and known, shouldn't be a hassle finding her page.
@marvishaN Thanks a lot for sharing, I just looked Heather Lee Larioni up on the web and I would say she really has an impressive background in investing. I will write her an e-mail shortly.

@@sistergolf2239 these are just my own notes BTW, but you're welcome to follow them. Thank you!
These are extremely useful rules for anyone looking to grow rich. Unfortunately, the majority of individuals that see this video will be unable to implement the ideas. We may not like to acknowledge it, but as Warren Buffett famously stated, investing is like any other profession: it takes a certain amount of knowledge. It's no surprise that some people are losing a lot of money during the bear market, while others are profiting by hundreds of thousands. I'm just not sure how they do it. I now have around $570k to invest in the market.
Understanding personal finances and investing will most likely result in increased financial freedom. Individuals who understand money and investing may make sound judgments about how to save, spend, and invest their money. I know someone who made more than $350,000 in this recession-influenced market, but to the best of my knowledge, it was done through a financial advisor.
A lot of folks downplay the role of advisors until being burnt by their own emotions. I remember couple summers back, after my lengthy divorce, I needed a good boost to help my business stay afloat, hence I researched for licensed advisors and came across someone of utmost qualifications. She's helped grow my reserve notwithstanding inflation, from $275k to $850k....
How can I engage in this? I truly want to have a stable financial future and am willing to contribute. Who is fueling your success?
“LAURELYN GROSS POHLMEIER ’’ is the licensed fiduciary I use. Just research the name. You’d find necessary details to work with a correspondence to set up an appointment.
i am going to look her up, I have about $81k i want to start with, might be small but it's better than nothing though. Since the 08 crash is playing out again
Engrossing and fascinating. Alex's honesty and straight talking - combined with your insightful questions - made this one of the best episodes so far. I love how you listen, process and then ask a pertinent question. Keep 'em coming Steve! Wonderful!
I love Alex man. Procrastinated on watching this one like a weekly tv show until I was able to just listen. Too good to drive to. Cheers to you guys for getting him
The most down-to-earth, real and relatable discussion on life, motivations, society, business and dreams that you will find on the internet.
I absolutely admire Alex and Leila for their business acumen to their love and dedication to one another. Power couple for sure.
Listened to both this and the Modern Wisdom episode with Alex on my morning walk and workout today. This man is full of motivational gems and actionable advice. Cannot recommend $100M Offers enough and I can't wait to read the follow-up this year.
This show just changed my life. Maybe even this episode specifically. how do you get motivated to change? “For me? I hated my current existence” “change happens when the pain of staying the same becomes greater than the pain of making a change”. Wow, I can finally put it into words.
What touched me the most about this interview is when he talked about the argument he had with a family member who said they wouldn't want his life and how he responded to it. When you're ambitious in your family, other family members will slow you down out of love but just don't get it.
I’m not sure what was more surprising..
The fact that Steven was able get Alex to open up on a more emotional level…
Or the fact that Alex is actually wearing pants and shoes vs shorts and crocs 😂
Love this one !
Never heard of him before and it was one of the most heartfelt, honest, and vulnerable interviews I have seen in a long time maybe ever. The old-beat-up car story was worth watching.
As I started to educate myself and focus on investing, business and making money my ultimate goal. I was constantly thinking about death. None of my peers at the time understood what I was talking about. Now hearing Alex talk about death, my eyes opened.
The future is uncertain, and the End is always near
This is by far one of my favorite conversations I've ever heard. Beautiful, deep, raw, honest and inspiring. Thank you so very much.
Listened to this only yesterday. Hands down my favorite episode of all times. Alex is a true inspiration no matter whether you agree with everything he says, and Steven simply does great interviews. The way he’s able to wait when there’s a quiet moment to push his guests to share more is just fun to watch. Keep them coming!
Dude Alex is so smart.
The way he answered “do you believe in yourself”
He didn’t want to say yes because I feel he knows that one doesn’t “believe” in oneself.
You know yourself. Belief is for religion. Knowing yourself is for reality.
I really appreciated the way he answered that too. For me it was refreshing to hear a more pragmatic answer than the usual hippy, self-help esoteric responses this kind of question invites. His philosophy of life comes down to three or four basic truths that he consistently highlighted so it became a bit repetitive when Stephen insisted on asking existential questions :D
When he explains his basic and simple approach to success it really makes sense, it's not this complicated thing.
I know the feeling of having a parent who only wants a certain kind of you and not you. It’s terrible to be a child loving such a person. I hope that with his wife and freedoms he finds his serenity! Such an interesting man, thank you for the episode, Steven!
Have you ever considered your parent had pain in their childhood and that led to them treating you that way? Have you considered that they acted that way for you and not to hinder you? Have you ever considered telling your parent how they make you feel? Parents are just people like you and I. Alot of children hold grudges over mistakes that any other could also make. Maybe your parents actions kept you on a path? It seems they care deeply for you. A child's perception of a parent is just that. Because they've never patented. Judge them only after you have parented. Then you'll understand much better.
Genuis that rolls up his sleeves
This is one of the few maybe even the only comment on this video that is not financial which makes me wonder if the rest of the people even listened to what was discussed here.
I agree with the OP. It sounds like his father was a toxic tiger parent. Good on him for standing up to his father. Never live your lost dreams through your children. It molds you into something 9 times out of 10 you'll be unhappy with. Thank God my parents weren't this way.
You cannot both hate and understand someone at the same time. Beautifully said! Very true.
Things appear strange right now. The value of the US dollar is declining due to inflation, but it is increasing in comparison to other currencies and commodities such as gold and real estate. People are flocking to the dollar because they believe it is safer. I'm worried that rising inflation will cause my $420,000 in retirement funds to lose value. What else could we do with our money?
Personally, I would say have a mentor. Not sure where you will get an experienced one, but if your knowledge of the market is limited, it seems like a good bet.
Buy Mayonnaise and a shovel. Or pickles. Both have pretty big jars.

Okay scammer
THE MOST SIGNIFICANT LESSON I GAINED FROM THE STOCK MARKET IS THAT UNCERTAINTY PREVAILS, EMPHASIZING THE IMPORTANCE OF HUMANITY. ADHERING TO A LONG-TERM STRATEGY WITH A COMPETITIVE EDGE IS KEY.
How can someone know a professional account manager that is trustworthy?

I would have dismissed all this as nonsense if I hadn’t been a witness. Emily Capehart saved me from debt and I will be forever grateful to her
Yes, it feels overwhelming when you are making good profit 73k weekly.
THIS GUY IS SUCH A GOOD INTERVIEWER ITS INSANE. 45:44 was absolutely gold. I've never seen someone be this captivating when asking questions
As an investing enthusiast, I often wonder how top level investors are able to become millionaires off investing. . I’ve been sitting on over $545K equity from a home sale and I’m not sure where to go from here, is it a good time to buy into stocks or do I wait for another opportunity?
I agree. Based on personal experience working with an investment advlsor, I currently have $985k in a well-diversified portfollo that has experienced exponential growth. It's not only about having money to invest in st0cks, but you also need to be knowledgeable, persistent, and have strong hands to back it up.
There are a lot of independent advisors you might look into. But i work with Viviana Marisa Coelho and I have been working together for nearly four years, and she is excellent. You could proceed with her if she satisfies your discretion. I endorse her.
Loved how you understand your audience, and acted as our voice to ask Alex the questions that we would love to hear about. For me, it was about what his partner meant to me in his time of self doubt, and his advice on self belief and taking the leap. Absolutely amazing episode.
“You can’t hate a person if you understand why”. I’ve improved my relationships a lots since I understand its essence.
This is one of my favourite DOAC episodes.
What an absolutely amazing human Alex Hormozi is! I glimpsed a side of him that I’ve not seen in his other videos.
Your interview shines a spotlight on his brilliance. Thank you Steven 🙏🏾 I am super grateful✨
The way he speaks of his wife, I can only hope one day someone speaks of me in this way… working on building the characteristics now to drive this type of energy my way in the future🙏🏽
To Laila’s credit, she saw that he was not just “trying”, but pouring his heart & soul into this project/ business, then into hers… she saw the profitability of the businesses & the work ethic of the man... she knew she was NOT risking it all for a loser; she KNEW she had a winner who was just caught up in a series of unfortunate events- so ladies, understand who you’re supporting & if/when it makes sense to stay or leave. She understood this.
Excellent interview
Spot on! 🔥🔥🔥
Alex is like Superman, and you basically had him in tears. Beautiful interview.
Internet is full of tough guys and macho and "I will kill you'' dudes, but you rarely get to see their real face. Its good to know that your superheroes also struggle and get emotional.
He's in tearing upbecause all he wanted was a little encouragement (from his dad), someone who believed in him. He found that in this wife instead. And he's right, I think that's what most of us want and need.. encouragement. It's the same thing that's making Jordan Peterson tear up every time it gets brought up. There are so many men (and women) out there that never got any encouragement and it's truly sad. The best thing you could ever do with your life right now, is to inspire and encourage the people around you. That's all you have to do.
It's a new angle to increase fandom for his brand 😐
Alex is such a humble dude. Very deserving of his success.
I can relate to this 1000% especially the part about not wanting to wake up. I’m so glad he was so transparent because I’ve shared this with people that just didn’t get it, I dont blame them for that but you do tend to feel like it’s only you feeling this way.
What I love about your interviews, is that you bring out the person behind the persona we are used to see... 😊
This is incredible advice. If you are in enough pain OR you want it bad enough, then you’ll do what it takes to get out of your situation. If you’re stuck in the situation and can’t get yourself to get out, maybe it’s not for you.
Thank you! I am 18 years old at the moment. Because of you I am able to support my parents with their financial problems. Because of you I had advice and motivation to start a Creative agency. Because of you I was able to sign my first client at only a age of 18! I can't thank you enough. Someday I will be able to give something back to you

Don't give him any money, he's rich already. Take care of yourself, you're 18.
❤
Help someone up too. Each one teach one.
I relate to this whole father and son scene he just told, it's just that I couldn't make it upto my father as he passed away, I couldn't make him proud nor get my closure and make things work, guess everybody are not the same and deserving, but I bet on one experience if parents staying on your side love them or if they are against you still love them with patient and respect, we are in this world through them. Everything happens for a reason ...
I have no doubt that your father would be proud of you NOW. I think in the afterlife (if you believe in that--I do) we continue to learn and grow and watch our loved ones with pride. Just a thought. No disrespect if you don't believe that sort of thing. I've just read/watched too many stories about near-death experiences (NDEs) and so I fully believe we go on, and we are all still connected.
I heard this from a previous department chair.. "for every successful man, there is an even more successful woman behind them".. I love your story!! I'm inspired!
This crazy how parallel our stories are… different industry and not as much money but amazing to hear this story. Im in the trenches and need to hear this rn. Thank you Alex.
Nobody can become financially successful overnight. They put in background work but we tend to see the finished part. Fear is a dangerous component, hindering us from taking bold steps we need in other to reach our goals. you have to contend with inflation, recession, decisions from the Feds and all. I was able to increase my portfolio by $589k in months. You have to seek for help in the right places.
I think it's not always about fear. Sometimes realistic factors discourage people from reaching their goals in life. For example, I have tried to invest in the stock market several times, but have always been put off by fluctuations in the value of shares.
@@Aziz__0 Given that we are not accustomed to such uncertain markets, the fact that the US stock market has been on its longest bull run ever makes the widespread anxiety and excitement comprehensible. There are opportunities if you know where to go, as you noted that it wasn't difficult for me to earn more than $780k in the previous 10 months. Since I was aware that I would need a reliable and strong plan to get through these tough times, I engaged a portfolio advisor.
@@2024Red-j5t My portfolio has been in the gutter for the entire year, so I started researching new ways to profit in the market, but everything I tried just seemed to miss the mark. Please let us know the name of your financial advisor.
@@Blitcliffe It was run by NICOLE DESIREE SIMON, who I learned about and got in touch with thanks to a CNBC interview. Since then, it has served as the point of entry and departure for the games we have emphasized. A search on the internet can be done if tracking is necessary.
@@2024Red-j5t Thanks a lot. I'm definitely gonna check her out. Do yo have any idea if she manages family fund?
This dude is the realist man ever. His insight on the use of pain, and the fact that you need to put in the time to get good at anything, proves he knows the secret of life.
One of my favorite podcasts of all time by two of my favorite online entrepreneur mentors. Thank you for this!
This is by far the best youtube channel for podcasts. Thanks Steven!
I think the reason you bring out so much more in your guests is because you’re searching for educating yourself with every interview. It’s a great environment to be a part of.
Sometimes we only need one voice that believes, such a powerful life and business story
People find what they are into/good at, and have their passion, motivation to work very hard at it. Couple that with the support they get along the way...That's the difference between those that make it and those that don't. That's it...this interview is just another example of such a person.
