  1. I love that Pat, absolutely right about everything. I’m living my twenties, feel exactly what you said and will keep chasing the good friends to push me forward

  2. Not going to lie, this is one of my favorite videos from Pat ever. This is quite literally a story of upward mobility and knowing that its possible.

  3. This is great Patrick. I wish I knew these earlier in life, but it's gonna guide me henceforth in my choice of friends. You guys are doing a great job. You are blessed. Keep going man.

  4. Patrick! Great video, great channel, A1. You mentioned one topic in this video that I would love for you to expand upon and hear your opinion about. You said how important it was to pick the right partner (wife/husband). Would love to see a video speaking about choosing the right partner when you're an entrepreneur.

  5. I am so lucky…. I have the same group of 4 friends since preschool that never change we separated but live even in different countries but nothing keeps us apart we keep talking and we are each other motivation. Now at 25 yo i am gonna open my first business other one is gonna open special barber next year the 3rd is already one of the highest managers of his place and the 4th is doing is hard work to strive in a company full of experience old guys that feels like they gonna die on the job before anyone can take their job and in his own words "i am learning how to be a giant"
