The whole “I didn’t see marriage growing up in my home” argument is played out for college educated women. If you have the discipline and diligence to obtain a degree you can apply the same level of effort to gain knowledge on how to make success of relationships and become a wife.
You're right if you're talking to a man ...females can't do this bc they are still dominated by their emotions. So when they find out how men truly think, what they truly want.....they get offended and in their feelings. Then they hit men with shame, insult, guilt, and the need to be right. Just like Kevin says
"I didn't see marriage", well alright. Neither did men to the same proportion, but you still expect men to be leaders, providers, and protectors. Figure it out. Get some therapy, find a long-term married woman to learn from. Do some work.
Yeah its so sad she said she found someone on the same page ,like its hard to find a man who wont' marry you if not required. And watch her get pregnant and change her expectation . This is so common, women start off with one expectation and then mature, change that expectation expecting the man to also evolve. We typically hold women to the original agreement.
This sh-t is scary. Not just about how women think now, but how we have been influenced as men. I'm a creative guy and I grew up with a modern single woman and a mostly absent dad and I've never thought about this before Kevin, and I've realized I'm not Ok. I'm REALLY behind. I don't have it, what am I gonna do now? So many years wasted... at least I got some skills in music, but not ones that are highly demanded like playing guitar.... this is leaving a bitter taste in my mouth and a unbearing heaviness in my gut, but it is sobering, better than living the delusion. I have to figure what to do now. Wish me luck.
I'm with you man. I'm gonna keep with the music however I saw a youtube video for men in our situation that suggested coding is one of the best things for men that are behind to get on track fast financially because you can earn as you learn.
you can fix this. i had a writing hobby, and went on to study chemical engineering. now i do technical sales and get writing gigs here and there. even in bad years i break six figs. my point being, that musical talent can give you a creative outlet and make you a nice side income to supplement a hard skill. i think you have a good start and should not feel bad about where you are. think long term, find a program thats difficult and lucrative. it's a ten year process, but you'll probably live to 100, so start now.
Good luck man. I feel you. I definitely just didn't pay attention to finding a mate, I thought it would be easy. I f'd up hard and hit the lotto right away and thought "oh, dating is easy, women are cool". And now it's very irritating realizing just how unprepared I was.
gotta use EVERYTHING you know. from laundry to grocery shopping. to include extended fasting. reading. develop an understanding of Law and Medicine. and 'government'. simultaneously. there must be another New Renaissance! it's almost time. find out all you can about first aid, and war strategy. communications. etcetera. you might be 'broke', but you won't be 'dumb' or 'boring'.
I grew up the same and even as a kid I could tell something wrong was happening. Over time I found myself increasingly confused and missing essential tools and understandings of how to be a man. I am now 40 and still working to correct and expand who I am as a person. The nonsense I was taught about romance has probably done me some of the most harm, all I can do now is grow better. I really appreciate the people suggesting options like coding, brothers of all types have to help each other out of this social crab bucket.
There are so many black women who are “educated” yet so out of touch with reality and how the world really works. I’m glad Kevin opened my eyes because I was going down this path myself.
It's funny that you said that. My wife had this "Book of Letters to my Future Husband" which was basically a diary from the time she became a teenager. In it, she wrote about not feeling that she qualified for a good husband anymore because she didn't line up with the ideals in this way or that (in her opinion). She passed my standards and I was a bitter picky prick when it came to standards of what I was looking for since I had recently been divorced... Point being that she was qualified (even to my strict standards) and believed she wasn't. We met over 13 years ago now and she's still a great wife and mother to our kids.
I’m grateful for KS. My children’s father and I are working to reconcile to get our family back in order. Our son’s behavior has improved for the better. I’m looking forward to the positive results to come.
I'm 49 & married. The girlfriends i have around me who prioritized their career over creating a family are now in my age range and some of the most depressed, sad, bitter, disillusioned people you can imagine.
I have no problem with black women not wanting to be married, but don't bring children into this and have them grow up to further mess up the community.
Fam..my cousin just gave birth by artificial insemination. No male parent figure in the picture. I'm like "why?" And she's 42. Like WTF. Who in their right mind would want to start parenthood by being a single mom? Makes no sense to me. Get a pet & call it a life.
She's got the "Subtle Ego" energy and she's passive. Kevin giving points with proof and all she does is try to exclude herself from a fact based statistic that she falls into off her own explanation of her situation. The biggest mistake people make is thinking life is a game when in reality, we really have to move about with intention because we ALL will be old way longer than we'll be young. Time don't stop man.
Just to give another dimension to the benefits of marriage, I lost my cousin about 18 months ago, he was married with 4 kids, it has been tough for the wife since then, but she reaches out to the extended family of her husband for support with school fees and sometimes money for food. If she wasn't married to my cousin, I doubt, she will get the same level of consideration she and her kids get from me and other family relatives. There is a clear difference between a wife and a partner, when a husband passes, the wife is still a member of the family, when a partner passes, the surviving partner has to move on.
Excellent point. That was my mom's experience when my dad passed away. Me, my brother, and my father's siblings all contributed to looking after her, socializing with her, and making sure her home was maintained properly. Mom's family lived many states away, so dad's family served as her primary social network. She has passed away now, but she was well taken care of by a large family network.
True, but I'll give her this much credit. She is taking what KS is telling her to heart. And I think by the 10 minute mark she already knows she is screwed.
Something I was thinking about at the gym this morning related to the probability vs possibility thing KS often talks about, and why men seem to have a better handle on it than women: how many of us dudes growing up wanted to be pro athletes? And how many ACTUALLY go on to be pro athletes. A very small percentage. Idk about y’all, but I know when I was playing the big 3 sports growing up, I swore I coulda been pro. I worked my ass off, got up early, wore jump soles (you a real one if you remember those!), but no matter how hard I worked that PROBABILITY is fuckin low. And no one ever let you forget it. So, at a young age, I had to come to terms with the fact that, this might not be the way I make money growing up, lemme at least get a plan B, C, D etc. Sure there’s a POSSIBILITY, but not likely. I feel like maybe that plays a role in why men seem to have a better grip on probability vs possibility. Does that sound crazy?
As far as careers, being a Dental Hygienist is WAY overlooked. You get your associates degree and start out making 80k-100k depending on the state you live in. In Virginia, it’s about 87k a year…With only 12-15k in debt from a community college, it’s not bad! You can make your own schedule depending on the dental office.
When Kevin counted down the Salary and she got lower than 50k my jaw dropped. I expected the lady to stop him at like 70k at least with her confidence and credentials
He gives reality checks to these women, and breaks down financial situations so soundly. I think I am picking up more game than the woman he's talking to. No🧢. Keep dropping gems unc💪🏽
@@menopillion9853 He's not talking through her, she cannot understand the Game that he is putting down. This is her fault, there is no excuse in this Information Age to resist the urge of seeking out how money is made. *I BET* that if you went on her Instagram you would find, girl trips, designer clothes, probably some Kevin Gates "quotes" and it's sad. No excuses these days. Folks need to getting retirement packages started yesterday, ROTH IRA's, 457B's, timely investments into the S&P 500, etc... *STAY AWAY FROM THAT BITCOIN TALK* if you do not have 50k that you can lose, that is not the game for you and you missed the rush for Bitcoin. Education in how money works is everything towards getting out of poverty.
When Kevin starts talking retirement funds that loses a lot of these women. They don't come from homes with parents who have pensions. This is a foreign idea to them. They can't see that far in advance.
They don't come from kingdoms with kings, queens, and princesses, and yet they have no problem understanding and thinking they are queens and princesses...
I have a pension, Roth IRA, and 457B plan. I max out what I can in those accounts. When I mention retirement to females they have the 1000 cock stare and have no idea what I'm talking about. Sad.....
It's a must you stick up for yourself, it's extremely cowardly allowing this brother to carry the whole load. If we move as a unit imagine the changes we'll see.
Meanwhile, the non-Black women who PUSHED feminism are at the coffee shop, spa, gym, restaurants or with their children while their husbands work. I’m a housewife and when I go to these places on a regular Tuesday morning I’m usually the only Black woman who isn’t working there. Black women are missing out on ACTUAL FREEDOM.
Say man, besides hating. People need to give this man KS his flowers while he’s here, because I don’t see nobody else fighting this hard to save people who don’t think they need to be saved from this sick modern culture!
For the folks that went to college, think about this for a moment..... Whilst in college, how many foreign students did you find in your Sociology class, Psychology class? Why is it most foreign students go into STEM or Law? They aim for the highest level because back home that's the only means by which you can own a house or eat. Be mindful of what's really going on in the market, chase the jobs that PAY, and pay considerably more as you go along.. You can get an entry level Amazon warehouse gig, go learn how to do EDI, warehousing rules and practices, rise to $100k plus in 3 to 5 years. No degree required. That mechanic at Porche?.. clocks $60k walking in, over $120k 4 years later. This bullshit about loving your job is a fkn lie. Love what the $ from your job let's you do. I'm 6 figures over 10 years and the job won't even let me retire (I tried), cuz there's literally no one they can find to replace me.
To the last point, I’d negotiate a walk away package for yourself if you have that type of leverage or ask for 200k LMAO. But to your first thoughts, everything you said requires a plan and strategy. Most ppl don’t even know what they will do tomorrow, let alone after 4 years of college. They just go to campus and let it fly. Smh.
@@Iamjoeycross that's the hurtful part. My buddies and I (foreigners) came in with plans and targets. Most of my American friends were chasing tail at Spelman next door.
I agree. I studied stem. Although I didn't go into a field in my major I focused on jobs that paid well with advancement. I also didn't go on to get a masters degree because I didn't want extra debt. I literally started at my job at 28 in the seasonal position making less than 20,000 a year to now making 70,000 after only 5 years. I was very ambitious and only focused on doing what I needed to do to advance and make more money.
@@Transportador33 Most attorneys are lucky if they’re making $40k to $50K a year. Lol. And every STEM degree isn’t worth the same because those degrees are industry driven and you don’t need a 4 year degree for some of those jobs. But yea, I always chuckle when someone says they have a philosophy, social science, history, or some other basket weaving liberal arts degree.
Exactly ! My friends wanted to be production workers chasing girls on the line. I hung around the maintenance mechanic guys picking their brains. I went to a training program for mechanical maintenance and now make 30k more and mow they say it changed 😂. If I leave now with the experience and certifications I can request top pay 70-100k. Now they chase the girls and those girls chase me.
Its tough to defeat 30 years of bad child rearing with 30 minutes of good advice. This is her culture. A culture of being single and doing for self while seeking out a limited liability partnership instead of full co-dependence.
That is the culture today I’ve been advised by everyone including my parents to just be a career guy never have a gir or a wife or kids just get rich sleep with as many women as possible and travel and see the world and experience life and that’s what I’m on I don’t even see met self building with any woman anymore I used to want that but all the shit over the past 10 years not really anymore
@@JJJ_JJ1 90% of investors don't make money (shares, business or real estate). Yet the media presents investing as though anyone can do it with ease of success. Our society is sickened with too much "positive motivational empowerment". What people need are the non-sugarcoated pragmatic reality check.
Lady, your money will NEVER double in 36 years in a savings account, the INFLATION during the 36 years will bring down the value of your cash to nearly 10% or less than its current value today, and that is in the best-case of scenarios.
I had to stop saying I was an entrepreneur cause it sounded so foolish . Now im just walking in my Purpose and focusing on making multiple streams of income
Man, my dad knock the snot out of me when I wanted to study art and computer animation. Then I became a cardiologist...it's great, rewarding, and has a secure future. I see all my cousins living the delusion that they'll strike gold with their "entrepreneurial" ideas and it's so hard to shake them out of that mindset... and if you try to they get offended.
This video encouraged me to be realistic about the fact that I am going to be living in poverty if I don't get my retirement situation together now. Thanks, Kevin. Another uncomfortable, needed truth.
Look into T.D.F's. Target Date Funds...these are retirement funds aka ROTH IRA's that you invest into. I opened mines through Vanguard in 2019 for 2055. Max it out every year $6,000. Good luck ✊🏿
This video made me reminisce of how sharp he was. He was always giving hard cold truth. Bitter salt to some but he never cared. Because he was showing love. It didn't seem that way at the time. I look at how he used intelligence in a world where a Black man shouldn't know how to use it. He was really a teacher and taught so many. He was direct. He tore through the veil of b.s. we are used to. He showed the blind the path to knowledge if they wanted. Many didn't. But I was one who did. I shared many similar views as him such as truth over fantasy with women. His voice was calm but his words were silver bullets to the heartless. He was took the podium and captivated our collective consciousness. He needles the single minded women who had never been questioned before by a well-spoken, well groomed intelligent Black man. He stood there for every man though. He said what we all felt collectively. I now want to thank him. He risked villain status with women for us. Brave is an understatement. His words were acid to the ears of the bottom feeders of society. But to us he was brilliant. He is a martyr now. Undisputed. Rest easy
The panorama is getting grim for a lot of women. My cousin is 36 and desperate. All of her friends have a man and children, she is alone. She doesn't earn enough to pay rent so her parents help her, but her parents are over 60 by now and about to retire. She is doomed.
Wow these birds WANT TO BE SINGLE MOTHERS! How are you not looking forward to a wonderful man and kids like it’s mental illness I’m so glad me and my man found each other! If you grow up without it why would you want your kids to have the same thing like omg!
The reason is “FREEDOM” they don’t want to feel obligated to one man, that way..if another comes along with a brighter smile and a bigger bank she can sabotage the current relationship and then monkey branch without feeling guilty 👌🏾
@Norah Elaine All elementary school teachers I know are normal, not this passive. But sometimes situations cause you to be different than you normally are, be it the pressure that Kevin asserts or that she is tired or that she is on medicine...
Saw a woman in her late 40s fiddling 🎻 in a food shopping center. Advertised she was a single mother of 3. I spoke with her for a bit, the father was not in the picture and she works full time at a Rose's retail store. She apparently got a raise and no longer qualified for the food stamps she relied on to feed her children. No extended family to depend on in the states, her only skill was fiddling (taught by her FATHER). So she was trying to make up the difference until she could find a second job that would work around her primary job. It was honorable, but very depressing.
Don't feel sorry for women, they use more government resources than men and live longer, if they struggle it's because they neglected their career thinking a man would pay for their life.
If most women don’t attach themselves to a man, many of them will have to be roommates or housemates with other women. Only a few will have the income to live alone forever.
@@NoreLyne I was in Amsterdam not long ago, and yes I have seen multiple people in that situation. No sense of the future. Some drowning in student loans and yet living such luxurious lives .. what a pity
Some women do Have the income but will thier bodies hold up long enough? My sister's are single vet make 80k or better and they work like my dad but will never retire like my mom. Men are raised to work until they die but women aren't. So at 50+. Still working and men pool shrinking, what are they going to do? It's time to just get along with a guy and ride it out. Most can't even cook so why would a good man pick you
"You think you have time..." That's something I ALWAYS say to these young people. Because I'm 41. But yesterday I was 22 lol so I promise YOU DON'T HAVE TIME
People should like the video if they Like the video. I do agree ks is awesome. But telling people to just like the video because they are free isnt a good reason to give them. so people give the likes if you like the content.
He’s correct about the $2.4M number. I’ve done the calculation- and $2.4M is equivalent of drawing down $96k annually (at 4%). And $96k of todays money is not $96k of future money after that many years of inflation (by the time a 28yo is a 65yo ready to retire). He has the numbers quite right.
The book 'The Millionaire Next Door' revealed that a vast majority of American millionaires had average education, ran traditional businesses, and were from traditional families - men were either the sole or primary earner and women were mostly homemakers. Commitment towards marriage and traditional values was the common denominator among most of the American millionaire families. The American private college industry has successfully fooled Americans into accumulating heavy student loans and getting all sorts of degrees that are usually not a good return on investment. Many sensible young American men are opting for trade school instead of college, but young American women continue to believe that a college degree (along with a heavy student loan, of course) is their passport to an "independent, empowered" life.
I hate to say it, but he's right. If she dont want to get married, and is not making six figures, and cant invest good, thirty years from now, she will have some problems. I'm single at 54 and disabled. I'm at my wits end because its hard for me to work. I didn't plan on my back going out. I went to college. I wanted to get married in my 20s, 30s, and 40s but it didn't happen. It's so many black women that didn't marry, and is in a bad situation in their 50s and 60s. Get married young lady, and build with your husband. Build that business with him, that's the best advice I can give you, because a college education will not guarantee nothing, especially if your not making six figures.
Damn that’s crazy because as a black man I’d been advised by literally everyone to never get married so this is becoming a hard trend I know I’m gonna be fine because I plan to never retire I love my career it gives meaning to my life
You a fool.. I’m fixing to retire at 65 a $millionaire after a late divorce cost me $700k, but, I’ve had it with working, there’s nothing left in the tank at 65, yours will be empty at 65 too, you are NOT special.. Find other things to do than work, you can’t work forever, your health will fail and that’s a wrap.. My income will be about $100k, I ain’t looking back, screw working..lol
Having hope and optimism has its benefits, as it keeps you from giving up on life too early, but without a healthy dose of reality, people will not take the action needed for reachable and realistic goals. Kevin is helping bringing both men and women back to reality so that when it is all said and done, we lived a life worthwhile.
MGTOW Disregard females, acquire salvation Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
if the world was different. i also would love this, but women have accepted the false doctrine that satan has whispered in their ear. Men, all they can do now? is step back and see the disaster happen
Homelessness is more realistic for alot of these women's future than they think I ran into a homeless guy a few weeks ago who was a retired doctor he had no kids and he had been divorced decades ago he was an elderly guy said he's been Homelessness a little over 2 years now and he said exactly what kevin be trying to tell these women he eventually ran out of money his divorce kind of dipped into his retirement money and the last bit of money he had been living off of was the money he got for selling his car and is house
A man will become homeless before a woman becomes homeless.I’m not saying theirs no homeless women. The court system will usually side with the woman. This is why the doctor became homeless, but I bet if you would’ve ask him if his ex wife is homeless as well. He may of said no she got to keep the house due to the life style he provided.
@@lertub yep my mother in law is BANKING on my husband taking care of her in retirement..she was shocked when he told her you most likely will NOT be retiring until your physically disabled and then you will live together with your daughter (who is single)
I listened to KS tell another woman this back in December. I thought "I make good money", "I'm good with money", "My retirement will be fully funded". But I didn't want this wisdom to pass me over so I did a quick check on a retirement calculator... I'll have a shortfall! My job offers qualified 403b and 457b plans. I promptly opened those accounts and maxed out allocations to these accounts. Sure my deposits are smaller but that not an issue. Pre-tax dollars that make more money in curated funds than in the IRS's possession and a low interest savings account. Thank-you, Kevin for the wake up call! Now I have peace of mind that my retirement will be fully funded.
Much respect to Kevin and his outlook on life, no matter what race you are he puts everything into prespective.. many women are missing the importance of his message. I believe I've become a more balanced person, wife and mother since tuning into his shows.
So true, my sister is pushing 50 and she said this to our mother, "I will live in a shelter if I have to". My mother rolled her eyes and I called her a bird. We have a house, wouldn't it be easier since you are not going to get a man to just pick up the bills in the house? If modern women are anything like my sister, I would run far and hide under the biggest rock I can find.
@@houstonveganchick5659that’s why older women can’t pair down. Imagine u as a guy being told u have to pair down at age 50 with a woman who’s 60 or 70. It needs to happen for women wen we are young because it’s too hard to make that adjustment wen u are middle age trying to radically reduce things like being attracted to the person. But they don’t really tell women how serious it is to marry young and now we end up alone as a result. Typically it’s lack of guidance and not being brought up to be groomed for successful marriage.
This is why Kevin is the best on this platform at this conversation no one else ever brings up retirement and how crucial it is to stick together. How could you not wake up after hearing this? Either you’re not really listening to him or you’re in denial
Gentlemen, if you want a traditional lifestyle with wife and family, please keep your options open, wide open to all other groups of women. Fact, life is hard, and if selecting the wrong type women, life can become extremely hard. Eyes Wide Open!!
I became a trucker…. Everyone laughed… years letter I own six semi trucks and a freight broker company. Both easily make well over six figures each No collage education or debt ❤️
Hey man, I'm 21 in the military. I'm about to get out and I don't want to go to college. I get paid less than the poverty line in the military. I know I can't support myself with that amount of money once I get ounce. Do you you mind taking the time out your day to explain this to me?
@@kevonbarnes2431 Stay in the Military and invest as much as you can. You get free food and lodging. Invest as much as you can while you don’t have expenses such as rent/mortgage, Groceries, Gas/electric, etc. It will be hard to invest when you are having to pay all those expenses. I served 12yrs in the Army and my biggest regret is not investing until I left. I would have had so much invested and could retire earlier.
Spot on! I’m so glad I found this mans channel. I hope more women swallow the hard pills that Kevin gives and come to the light. If you’re educated but unmarried, you’re no different than the project chick. We the only women who love struggle, this the curse we need to end!
Ma'am if KS is a life saver for you, than you lack guidance all around. KS is not saying anything new, his talking point are 30 plus years old. I don't know your life but your parents or grandparents never spoke with you about life?
For those who aren’t taking this seriously take it from someone who was homeless. It takes one medical issue to snowball you to the streets. I’m not homeless now and I work everyday to keep building to make sure it never happens again.
And she listening that’s key 🔑 but her mind state is not right she don’t believe in marriage I feel so sad for my community a lot of them think this way
yeah that's the terrifying part because she's dead serious, a degree in psychology and can't understand the concept of marriage Especially in a household where is she plans on having children
Discussions about financial literacy and not just this quick come up crap most people are pushing Are the important conversations we need to have more of.
Despite her mindset, at least her manners and demeanor made for a calm, civil disscusion, which is rare these days especially for KS videos, I respect that.
The kool aid red hair says more about her than the degrees and anything she has said!!! She is inappropriate for taking to corporate Christmas party and building relationships with co workers wives outside of work to help you get promoted!!!!!Keep it pushing fellas stay on your grind dont get caught up with women like her!!!!
This needs to stop this ain’t the 60’s ..white women add color to their hair and still are married by black men and white men and no one associates her blonde hair with any negative stereotypes.. we’ve got to do better
I will be leaving the country when I decide to retire. I refuse to continue to allow the government to take my hard earned cash to take care of women and children that are not mine. I may give up citizenship as well. I can always visit family on a visa if I choose to.

And this is why they in a win/win situation. I’ve seen men put up the down payment for the house with needed income to pay for it. Wife paid 15 percent of the household bills. Only to be rewarded with the whole house after the divorce. The man ended up getting an apartment and starting over.
They should teach this in school. Like no seriously, they should broadcast this channel in public schools all over the country. Also, as a shelter manager I can speak to this. There are girls, not women that come into my shelter all the time. Black and brown 18-26 year Olds with 2-3 kids!!!! And you know what they say? "I'm going to sit up in this shelter until Section 8 come." Like wtf!!!
She has a good attitude despite her lack of awareness. She should be careful though as the boyfriend still has time to walk out, get married and have kids. Meanwhile, her window is closing
When you asked her what are the benefits of being married. The only thing she could come up with is Finance. this is our only value to women. fellas listen and learn
@@eribunni1499 his line of questioning was only predicated on money because she wanted kids. But come on, u could tell this lady seen no other value in having a man.
@@gmackhere4fun Ohhh gotcha! I didn't think of it that way. Yeah, if she doesn't have enough to raise her kid then you got another lost black kid on the streets. Really sad.
This is probably the best discussion I seen about the dysfunction of the black female outlook on life I know so many black females that think and live just like this lady smh
Get with Fidelity, Merrill Lynch or others and they break it all down to you. Most jobs you can log on to your retirement plan and talk to someone. Its free and they will talk all day answering questions.
Rule of 72 for dividends yield % and number of years at that rate to double your money ( to cover for inflation) is basic Finance 101, been that way since I first went to a University for my 4 yr Finance degree, and took a Finance 101 course in 1976. Very common and basic finance equation.
Mr samuels is speaking the honest truth. Whether they have a college degree or not. They all think the same that marriage isn't important but having kids and struggling alone is considered independent or boss chick. So sad, only if women stop going to school for useless degrees and learn to get along with men. If both partners average earners work and put your money together for survival that's it.
Welcome to my wife's and my world. Love how these girls call themselves queens, bosses, divas and the guys calling each other kings. BS, we're all thrown in this world just trying to survive one day to the next. Like you said, let two average earners get together without all the "titles" and get thru life as best as possible.
Ask me and hear me I am 34yrs old, technically 35yrs old to be. I wake up everyday saying I did this independent lifestyle for 11yrs and is a mother of 1 child of 7yrs old and consider a single mother due to my child's father passing away from Covid in 2020. I wake up everyday with regret saying I may have done this independent lifestyle mindset for so long but I am tired doing it alone and I am still waking up single 😞 and by myself with no man I can equally have it with. I have open up to dating several suitors who was not the best fit quality of chosen them. I have had the blessing to be introduce to someone through a mutual friend and I must say it's been the most effort to this day! To be open to all the possibilities between us and that man has changed my perspective on fear and let go and let God 🙏🏾 watching every video of Kevin's platform has attracted a different image for myself and I see the change in myself and perspective I have towards life now. Thank you! Kevin much love from Las Vegas 🥰
It brings a magnifying glass to the fact that modern American culture promotes individualistic mentality and lifestyle over marriage, relationships and the family dynamic & community, no matter where they are… whether living in the cities, the country or on an island… men need to protect and provide for women and families & build while women need to nurture raise and teach the children and bond with men… So that all of humanity can move forward…
I'm 36 and just bought my first home for my family and renting out my in-law house, I'm already focusing on my future and investments. I'll make sure I have passive income if I ever retire
Another fantastic yet sad interview. I wish Kevin would also ask in these types of conversations what is their student loan balance. Their level of debt will immediately shut down any counter they have in regards to saving and investing. They are married to the federal government.
Many think having a semi luxury car and overpriced clothes equals success. Many of the women he talks to are already overextended and overweight before age 35. Trouble ahead!
Young people as a whole do not think about retirement. When I was in a union, there was a young guy that made fun of our concern about out pension. I have heard guys that said they figure they will work until they die. I said what if you can't work. It gets blown off. Many people these days don't think about retirement at all. They think they can work until they die. It's not just young woman. It's everyone! They don't even want to think about it! To talk about it is like your bringing them down with bad news. There are going to be a lot of homeless people in the future!
For me, and Im 29, but my thinking is honestly if I don't have a family, whats the point of retirement? To do what exactly? I worked at a retired home, and the quality of life is typically abysmal. Wake up, pills, eat, activity room, pills, eat, nap, pils eat, sleep repeat. For most people, no matter what the economic situation, there's nothing particularly exciting about getting old and managing a boquet of ailments until you stretch life out till its over. Why do you think retirees are significantly more likely to end their own lives? Because they know that they've done as much as they were going to do.
