This man is a blueprint for so many things in life and how to navigate society and the business world. Some of the main things is the ability to think through obstacles, following your intuition, value your content and intellectual property, know your worth and doing business on your own terms.
Personal integrity determines alot in life and after I learned why Dave left the industry my respect level increased DRAMATICALLY. I completely get it and I understand💯
And based on his last special, they’ll dangle money over your head hoping you’ll get in line but with his freedom deal with Netflix , he can truly be the comedian that he desires to be.
He have much more money, since then so giving up the $50,000 for his sanity was the best thing he did. Like they say, when you feel something isn't right move in your soul listen and act. Don't do it, or pray. Congratulations Dave you showed them, and I am happy for you. : )
I would turn down $50m's under few circumstances and they would be, if my soul/integrity/happiness/freedom were being compromised in any way, if me and/ my relatives/family's well being were being compromised in any way, and/or if for some reason I feel like i'm being low balled. Those would be the only reasons, but if somebody was to hand me $50m's with no strings attached I certainly would take it.
That's a superb point to make. Does anyone really know, factually, how much $ he was worth before the show? In my opinion, if it was anything over 25 million, then you sir are a certified genius.
wutson if he had 25 million, on an individual level, the difference in lifestyle between 25 million and 75 million really doesn’t change very much. You just buy more of the same stuff. For someone like him who lives a rather modest lifestyle anyways, that’s not gonna really move his needle. Money is money but not all money is good money.
Hello Aluxers! Could you ever see yourself walking away from a 50 million dollar payday under any circumstance? Mind Mastery: www.alux.com/mindmastery Get a free audiobook thanks to Audible: www.alux.com/freebook 15 Things You Didn’t Know About Kevin Hart: y2u.be/ayD9v2tMQKU
ALUX, you got a tear from me today when you spoke about D.Chapp. I try to limit myself to 1x ALUX video per day as I feel like it is the BEST financial teaching tool on the internet today. This was my second of your informative documentaries in less than an hour and I vow to have one more before nightfall.
I wondered if they we're asking him to give bjobs once a week to the network execs, wtf? Why there wasn't room for negotiation?Also, it validates what people say about Hollywood asking one to sell their soul.
Respect. I turned a contract down because after 3 months and 3 weeks I was not happy in China, health deteriorating and away from my friends. I can't see myself turning $50M down now, because that sum would bring me into orbit to broadcast a lesson from space, but not saying it could never happen.
Yes, I would walk away. Self respect means a hellava lot more. I had a chance long ago, to be wealthy, in the hundreds of thousands of dollars, but, integrity stepped in. I have began the process of two websites, which will make me comfortable, so, comfort and integrity is much better.
@@alux ha ha alux friend I never get angry with you my friend always I'm keep watching your video up to particular Year and OK my Illw see you tomorrow as usual
Is it possible he couldn't handle the pressure of living up to the expectations of a big contract ? When the Gods want to punish us, they answer our prayers. And I absolutely love Dave's style of comedy .
The industry changes people look what it did to child stars and old singers and pop artists the industry is weird like something is wrong with it we do not know until we are in the shit they do
David Chappelle decided to live a life of service, 'to have a meaningful life' as Dave said on his latest interview with David Lettterman. Being thankful to God, to put your trust in God and only fear Him is the way to succes and happiness in life.
I ❣️ the bonus fact. ☺️ I could give up $50 mil if I was in a similar position, money and career wise, as Dave. For him, it worked. In the end he made $80mil from Netflix and he has so much more in store in the future.
There might be a 0.001% chance I'd walk away from 50 million - on Venus. I can't think of anything that would keep me from saying no, but you never know.
He flaked out and quit. You think I'll believe he was too "woke" to do blackface and some guy laughing at him made him have to fly off to Africa and never do the show again? Give me a break. Google "Why left chapppelle" and read his quotes which never mention blackface.
This is not some meek, starving artist who got fired for not doing blackface. He had control over his show and he flaked out and left and never fulfilled his contract. He was already well off and now he has even more money. He still curses and is crass. There is no good lesson here.
This is why MEN will ALWAYS rule.. because men have introspection of themselves WOMEN do not.. they run souly on EMOTIONS.. He STEP away and came back stronger.. !! That's what men do.!
