I do not own the audio source/s used to create this video. If any of the owners want their content taken down please contact me via the email in the About section of my channel. All works of commentary, reviewing, video editing and (many times) the mixing of different content sources do come from this channel's creativity. Thus, I believe there is a "transformation of value" from any particular raw audio source. This value transformation and, given the non-fictional / educational nature of the audio source contents, makes it a stronger case for "fair use" right. Also, I believe this video is supportive to the owners of the audio source contents, as it helps to spread their invaluable message in a positive way. But in any case, as mentioned in the previous paragraph, if any owner do not want their content to be featured in this video, please contact me :)

There's not much views on these, but I think these videos are way underrated.

[romanpavliuk]

Love your channel. Very lucky to find u. I wish you a good luck in life and fast growth to ur channel. Will be trying to spread this channel. It's a gem

[danielahern]

the quote is actually: "the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil"... and the full context is:

But godliness with contentment is great gain. 7For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. 8But if we have food and clothing, we will be content with that. 9Those who want to get rich fall into temptation and a trap and into many foolish and harmful desires that plunge people into ruin and destruction. 10For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.

0:10 The quote is "The LOVE of money is the root of all evil." It's quite different. Money is an object. It doesn't do anything.

We live an extreme society where "cost of failure" might be lowest but at the same time "risk of ruin" is highest.
When you take the risk, it's do or die. You can't afford to die with a family on your back.

I'm thankful I have a job I can keep learning at my own choice. I am still in the 8-5 trap, but I have a fair amount of freedom to learn. I am still hungry at 49 to do better and I have a good income to leverage cash for a business idea. I just don't know what to focus on. I have been studying coding in Python, javascript, and C in the hopes of creating something that could be useful.

These are some of the best videos for entrepreneurial wisdom on YouTube. I always look out for them. Keep em coming!!!

[aarondv]

Love your videos! 👏
Keep it up & hope your channel gets the love it deserves in future.

[JoATTech]

I can learn anything. But it's the next step I always struggle. To turn this knowledge into something useful :(.

[justaname]

wow you are starting to get lots of views- i have been watching for more than a year- seen nearly all of your videos- nice to see your channel growing!

[lucifermorningstar]

I missed your videos man. The things you make videos on is brilliant.
Thank you putting this much work!!

Probably the best Picking Nuggets video I've seen

[Kiyaansh.kulkarni]

The beauty of this channel is it provides the most needed knowledge In an effective way without any BS...i love this

[TheBairuike]

Most wealth is build by having other people create it for you. You will ever create anything that makes you deserving the wealth differences we observe today.

[angelmarauder]

Tldr; you're either the employer or the employee. You either receive the benefits of productivity, or you give it to someone else.

[aarondavis]

The Bible actually says, “For the LOVE OF MONEY is the root of all kinds of evil...” [Emphasis mine]. Money itself is innocuous. It’s our relationship with money that determines whether it’s used for good or evil.

Within the first minute there are already factual fallacies here. There are not more parasitic organisms than non-parasitic organisms.

[dhanraj]

A undervalued voice and channel ! Its truly difficult to jump off the 9 to 5 but not impssible !

[jasoncharles]

Well said. Naval simplifies the complexities in a poetic way.
