Gary Vaynerchuk. This guy is becoming one of my favorite
speakers. He not only speaks well with information good to hear no matter what
you are doing in life, he has learned many life lessons in his life since
coming to America. When I hear immigrants that come here thinking we have roads
paved with gold and life is easy here, I wonder where they got their
information.
Gary's folks came here for the OPPORTUNITY to live life free and
prosper. His Dad saw to make it anywhere one has to work, work, work, save,
save, save, and invest in ownership of his own business. For some reason
Americans born and raised here seem to think everything should be given to
us...for what being born? We act like spoiled rich kids and miss the
opportunity given us right here in the USA.
Kids born into financially wealthy families are given every
opportunity without working to get it and in time find things are so easily
achieved for them, (i.e. Parents can buy them diplomas if need be and can hook
them up with the right people to do or sell whatever the kid invents or makes,
in other words these rich kids do not have to sweat, save, and use critical
thinking skills to break into a market,) Dad or Mom have all the connections.
Rich kids say, "Easy come, easy go." (Abusing people is easy, people
like things are disposable.) "If something or someone does not serve my
purpose, I can get rid of them."
There are morally corrupt rich people that file lawsuit after
lawsuit to put the competition out of business because the competition does not
have enough money to run their business and pay lawyers to keep doing the legal
work to fight. There is such a thing happening right here in Albany, NY and
your town. It happens everyday.
The bottom line is when you come from nothing, you have nowhere
to go but up but you will not get there unless you work, work, work, save,
save, save, save, and invest in ownership of your own business. Ownership of
your own business is not a guarantee unless you stay out of debt and find ways
to turn a profit bigger every year. Working a job to make money to save, save,
save, is good, work three if need be but to be financially free we need to own
our business. Business founded from the sweat and savings of a morally upright
person has a much better chance of prospering. These people are not chasing the
dollar, they actually care about others.
Gary Vaynerchuk may be the modern man's mentor in business the
world has waited for... a mentor who knows to put love for his family first, to
be sexually faithful to his wife always, to spend any off time from work with
his children, he knows to have love and give love takes time with these
relationships. He does not have time to go drinking with the boys, or gaming,
hanging out doing drugs, using women for selfish momentary pleasures, Gary does
not believe in using anyone to get to the top of his business. (And he knows to
be happy and rich takes time with your loved ones.)
But he does believe in giving back to people his knowledge and
wisdom of life. He is a good man. He loves the USA. He loves capitalism that
gives the individual the OPPORTUNITY to rise above any station in life. A
Russian Jew Immigrant that is glad his father brought them here in 1978. He has
a thick skin and knows who he is so other's opinion of him does not matter. He
sounds a lot like Byron Katie.
He believes immigrants have the greatest push to make something
of themselves because they know the alternative. They know what they escaped
from recently. Future generations who have the basic luxuries supplied to them
have less push. Gary says jokingly, "My kids are going to be total
losers."
Thank you Gary for your public speaking and great insight that
will help this next generation live well in the USA. Thank you.
The universe is a friendly place and life is getting better and
better everyday.
