I went to school with Daniel, I remember him dropping in year 2. It was a design study.
Cant say anything negative about him, was such a friendly and honest guy back then (we were 16ish).
Glad to see him succeed

I love how Simon just listens and doesn't interrupt. The guest is describing everything so simply and eloquently and Simon allows us to absorb the information so well. I love these videos and this by far is my favorite. Thank you

Watching this while at my 9-5 😅 working on launching a business before the end of the month

Such a great video! Most people chase millions without ever knowing why. Money with no direction is worthless.

Daniel nailed it, get brutally clear on YOUR definition of "rich" leverage your unfair advantages, and build freedom, not just a bank balance.

I respect Daniel even though he's in a different industry and business to me. He's killing it in his own way. Thanks again Simon.

Thank you so much for the inspiration Simon. I got kicked out when I was 16 too. Been working hard ever since and finally had the courage to start my brand. Its been really hard because I had lost everything with the wrong partner and starting from the bottom again. However I truly believe that if your heart is in the right place, u will be able to achieve anything and with the right advice. Now im working on providing an alternative solution to help people quit cigarette addiction, while spreading environmental awareness on cigarette butt pollution. I watch you every other day to stay motivated and apply your advice into my business. Thank you. I really hope one day I get to do it in person 🌱💚🙏

I saw you at the Strand yesterday Simon, you were busy interviewing other gentlemen and I was too shy to introduce myself.. I hope I run into you again! I loved your book and have been trying my best to start my own business since coming across your youtube channel. Wish me luck :)

[kangluoqin]

Thank you Simon for posting such a high quality, educational video. I will indeed chase my dream because I started watching your videos. You changed the way how I think

[robalcock]

I’ve literally been waiting over 2 months for this video

[levisteudler]

I remember when I watched a video of Daniel he didn't even have 10k subs on YouTube. Insane how great this young men is!

[berthayamaguchi]

You guys are awesome! Quick question though, Is there any small or medium but lucrative business you can easily combine with a 9-5 job? I don't want to quit my job and I love it but I need the extra income too.

[jonesy.]

Daniel & Iman, my favourite episodes yet!

[AleksandrAvdeyev]

This was one of the best ones on the channel. This guy is genuine and a beast!

[PetiteJessicaMarie]

I’m grateful for my dad always telling us to do what we want in life or we’ll regret it. Because he didn’t pursue what he actually wanted and he regretted it. And also having opportunities robbed from him by his parents. That and having my mom eventually working with what she loved through her own business. I’m so glad my parents didn’t have any expectations of what they thought we should be when we grew up. It was always, make sure you do what you want in life and what that is, only you know.
