I just turned 40, and I must tell you Graham, What you are describing…that is not being BURNED OUT… that is called Maturity… And I am not talking about getting bore or tired and start being more private and slow down a little bit because we become senile… NOT, because we are the kind of person that always are looking for things that excite us! At least I am in that way, and all your followers are in that way too. BUT what you are describing about looking the next chapter of your life, not being excited about being in Social Media as before, being more private, etc, etc… it is part of growing up, you just did it sooner because you were a Business Owner a very young age, that is all. You will do great!
Wow fantastic interview 👍 Ken asked questions with immense depth and I got to see a different and warm side of Graham. Hope to see more of you guys in the near future!
Career ideas for Graham for next level…. 1) start a fund for Multifamily/commercial like grant cardone style 2) join exp and build a massive nationwide network of agents where you also teach them investing and video marketing 3) become the next Dave Ramsey with coaching, books, higher ticket programs, etc
Listening to Graham's story here feel different somehow. Like I knew parts of it from other interviews and videos but here it just seems more complete. It like he did everything I should have done in my teens and early 20's but instead I went to college and pursued a major that ultimately was useless. I dropped out in my last semester even and went into a video production career. This interview is full of golden takeaways for anyone trying to figure out what's next. Thanks Ken and Graham for this insightful episode!
@@sp123 lol I was in school for 4.5 years… I made all the connections I needed to not graduate and work a career in video production for the last 6 years. I’m good fam 😅
Hello Graham, i just watched a video that you did with Think Media Podcast. You gave a lot of great advice. You said in the video that if a new creator would make at least 20 videos you would help them. I have over 80... please give me some advice. I used to be a Homeless Addict and Jesus Christ Healed me. I am now trying to spread his word, positivity , and my testimony through youtube, and music.
This was a good interview. I think Graham should do these more and focus on the Ice Coffee Hour because I See growth there and don’t see it on the finance channel anymore, it’s become to repetitive
1. Great stuff! 2. I would absolutely watch/like/subscribe to Graham's "Daily Wire but for Finance" 3. Graham, you mentioned that starting is best and to not worry so much about not understanding everything, which I'm doing, but I sometimes struggle to even know what you're talking about because I am so far behind in terms of knowledge (despite my interest being high.) What would you suggest as an educational resource that could catch me up? I'm 43. I'm investing, and thinking about different avenues, and I'm in it to win it, but I started late so what would you recommend to go from knowing a little bit from TH-cam to having a more comprehensive understanding about finance? Thanks Ken and Graham!
Reached millionaire status via TH-cam content and residuals from TH-cam videos. That’s it. This opened up the doors for real estate investing and portfolio building. He’s broken it down for us before.
He was making almost 200k a year before his first youtube video. Real estate is a larger factor of him becoming a millionaire than youtube was. TH-cam just eventually started making him more money than real estate sales did
Great interview. I would have also asked Graham 1. Why he did not get into syndicating real estate investments like Brando Turner. 2. Are you still buying real estate? What is your current holdings 3. How do you have a girlfriend when you work so much? 4. What is your beef with Meet Kevin? 5. Tell us the story behind your boxing match. 6. How does living in Las Vegas compare with Los Angeles? 7. Why all of the sad faces in your video thumbnails?
That was a great in-depth conversation! I never would have guessed Rob Dahm was one of Grant's early inspirations, but I can see how now. Keep up the great work!
I also tried real estate around the same time he did. It made me so poor! It’s so expensive to keep your license, back then was several thousand dollars each quarter! If you don’t have another job you won’t make it. Also if you have a people pleaser mindset like I did then it’s not for you. You have to be head strong and blunt about everything I think to succeed. I sold my first house after about 10 months of showing, most people just want to “look” At houses but not serious about it. Also you have to work weekends and holidays. I tried it and don’t recommend it AT ALL! if you sell a house you have to split it with your broker and the rest mostly goes to paying the Realtor fees. Good luck, pray before you make any big moves. Only SOME make it in real estate, I really did try for 2.5 years and did not survive it.
I know there is something else out there, but I don't know what it is. I tell myself the same thing without having the millions behind me, so I keep grinding
Ken.....Contact Clancy Burke who has been a youtuber for over 10 years and she has a very loyal audience. She was a TV reporter at one time but now she does TH-cam exclusively.
You know there a lot of people like Graham that don’t go to college and are very success because there natural learners they think out side the box and they do what feels Right to them. We need more of that and less of people borrowing money and getting in debt and then figuring out they didn’t need to go to college in the first place
Nope a formal education opens doors. I want my professionals to get it period. Outside the box people in my experience tend to be poor and people like Graham just exploit the less fortunate and he made a great income compared to expenses. Living on 20K after tax was not difficult when only had to pay out 15K!!! He obviously had a similar situation just on a huge scale.
I'm totally with Graham on this whole school thing. I think high-school and the system that surrounds people in high-school such as we were, is a waste product of communism in my observatory opinion. Cap-it-alism is way more free and flowing than with a just-over-broke system training academy, which is high-school even through much of university; I think there is wisdom there but there is much sorting of the lyes and misinformation in the academics to be done if you are a diligent student.
I think in order to do a specialist job a high school education is very much needed. In my observation specalist job tend to not want those without the minimum of at least a high school equitant.
Ken, Graham sold out his viewers promoting scams like established titles and masterworks. And of course FTX… He doesn’t bode well with Ramsey and it’s values. I would advice to stay away…
He promoted a scam ? How so did he know it was a scam, no he didnt he lost money to. He got sponsored and he promoted the site, its not his fault it turned out it was doing bad buisness. If someone got scammed its his own fault because nobody forced them to invest into it, thats like saying my friend should go to prison because he told me to jump off a bridge even though he didnt force you in any way. People are just mad that they lost money due to their own stupidity, never invest any money into any volatile asset like single stocks etc that you are not willing to loose, its very diferent investing in 401k, inedx funds ans realestate compared to day trading and investing into single stocks, its like gambling . And this is what graham speaks about ao why invest money you dont have just because he is promoting a sponsor ?? Like wtf
@@CROengineer If we go by your logic, a doctor could be paid to promote a brand of cigarettes as the healthiest supplement on the planet and get away with it. "Oh but they didn't force them to smoke it!" That doesn't matter, that doctor is in a position of influence and authority and abused that power for their own personal gain. When someone like Graham that has a huge following tells them it is a good investment, it is very much a scam. Especially when it came out that Taylor Swift rejected a $100 million offer from FTX just to promote it. So yeah, if they took money from them, they very much promoted the scam.
This is such garbage. His dad was a Disney executive so he had in at real estate and video production. No amount of making coffee at home is going to get you to millionaire status like graham
My dad worked in the storyboard / animation department with Disney in the early 90s while they were notoriously overworked and underpaid. Not sure how that would make the leap to “Disney executive,” but that would’ve been nice 😅
Thank you so much for having me, I really enjoyed it! Was great meeting you!
It was so nice to watch you again.
Love seeing Graham ❤
Great collab! Love both channels!
Wonderful collab!!! Loved the video!!!
Absolutely! Thank you for sharing your story!
It’s inspiring how well Graham articulates himself
I just turned 40, and I must tell you Graham, What you are describing…that is not being BURNED OUT… that is called Maturity…
And I am not talking about getting bore or tired and start being more private and slow down a little bit because we become senile… NOT, because we are the kind of person that always are looking for things that excite us!

Wow fantastic interview 👍
Ken asked questions with immense depth and I got to see a different and warm side of Graham.
Hope to see more of you guys in the near future!
This is honestly the best interview with Graham. I feel like alot of interviews don't go this in depth into his backstory.
Career ideas for Graham for next level….
1) start a fund for Multifamily/commercial like grant cardone style
2) join exp and build a massive nationwide network of agents where you also teach them investing and video marketing
3) become the next Dave Ramsey with coaching, books, higher ticket programs, etc
This is a huge interview! I love both Graham and Ken! I have had a huge struggle with doing what I love for a career. This helped me a lot!
I love Graham with the Ramsey personalities, I followed both for many years with different financial content and ideas, great interview Ken!
Fantastic interview Ken. Great questions, well done!
Love the Graham/Ramsey collaboration!
Me too!!!!
This was a great interview!
Wow! Excellent interview. I have so much respect and admiration for Graham, he is a genius.
This was Awesome! Love seeing this version of you Graham
Awesome collaboration 🎉 two greats guys. Just finished Paycheck to Purpose last night
🙏🏻

Bro go back to school and get your degree. You don't have the connections of a Graham Stephan to get rich without a degree
@@sp123 lol I was in school for 4.5 years… I made all the connections I needed to not graduate and work a career in video production for the last 6 years. I’m good fam 😅

Golden Grahams?

Ken keep making this type of video
@Grahamstephan you are killing it brother
Graham was and is going to be successful in WHATEVER area he focuses on. That’s a fact. 😀
This was a good interview. I think Graham should do these more and focus on the Ice Coffee Hour because I See growth there and don’t see it on the finance channel anymore, it’s become to repetitive
I'm with Ken, I vote for a Piano video
1. Great stuff!
2. I would absolutely watch/like/subscribe to Graham's "Daily Wire but for Finance"
3. Graham, you mentioned that starting is best and to not worry so much about not understanding everything, which I'm doing, but I sometimes struggle to even know what you're talking about because I am so far behind in terms of knowledge (despite my interest being high.)

Thanks Ken and Graham!
Well I always viewed Ramseys company as the DW finance of YT podcasts.
Also George Kamel is Michael Knowles, you can't change my mind.
Reached millionaire status via TH-cam content and residuals from TH-cam videos. That’s it. This opened up the doors for real estate investing and portfolio building. He’s broken it down for us before.
He was making almost 200k a year before his first youtube video. Real estate is a larger factor of him becoming a millionaire than youtube was. TH-cam just eventually started making him more money than real estate sales did
So next is Rachel’s turn to have him on her show lol.
Beautiful table!
Great interview. I would have also asked Graham
1. Why he did not get into syndicating real estate investments like Brando Turner.
2. Are you still buying real estate? What is your current holdings
3. How do you have a girlfriend when you work so much?
4. What is your beef with Meet Kevin?
5. Tell us the story behind your boxing match.
6. How does living in Las Vegas compare with Los Angeles?
7. Why all of the sad faces in your video thumbnails?
Let’s go Graham!
Really interesting guy, and a great interview! Thank you 🙏
Great conversation!
Awesome interview!! Great job!
That was a great in-depth conversation!
I never would have guessed Rob Dahm was one of Grant's early inspirations, but I can see how now.
Keep up the great work!
Thank you!
Great stuff. Keep it coming
Great stuff!
08:18 yea Real Estate agents don’t really want to help anyone unless they know you 😅
I also tried real estate around the same time he did. It made me so poor! It’s so expensive to keep your license, back then was several thousand dollars each quarter!

"You made the right time happen because you kept showing up" that's deep
That Rob Dahm video was amazing.
'TH-cam finance space is overly saturated'
Way to add to the problem, Graham.
So interesting listening to this as a TH-camr/content creator myself. I’m feeling the same burnout.
You know there a lot of people like Graham that don’t go to college and are very success because there natural learners they think out side the box and they do what feels
Right to them. We need more of that and less of people borrowing money and getting in debt and then figuring out they didn’t need to go to college in the first place

Graham is ADDICTED to "money" thats his problem.... Yes its just like a drug addiction in many many ways
I love salt water aquariums to ; )
The legend Graham!!
Thanks for watching!
Rob frickin' Dahm in 2012?? Just look at you both now haha
Love Graham ❤❤❤
By taking FTX sponsorships
How much did Graham made last year?
41:07 51:00
Isn’t the podcast something new?
Graham finally looks like she’s 26. I’m jealous lol.
Graham your face looks fuller 😯
Ken every time you speak you mention something you sell. It turned an interview into a half of a bad infomercial.
It's like watching Andy Bernard try to interview someone.
I'm totally with Graham on this whole school thing. I think high-school and the system that surrounds people in high-school such as we were, is a waste product of communism in my observatory opinion.

Interviewer talks too mucho
W
but doesn’t the amount of debt he has out weigh the amount of success?
In his case I would say no. He posts about his full financial picture from time to time and he has way more assets than liabilities.
Not if he has enough cash to pay off all his debt. Graham is very wealthy and successful
I will save you an hour of your time, set up a TH-cam channel become really successful, and there you have it!
Typical. Someone who knows nothing about graham
Grifter
Ken,
Graham sold out his viewers promoting scams like established titles and masterworks. And of course FTX…
He doesn’t bode well with Ramsey and it’s values. I would advice to stay away…

By that logic Dave did the same by taking ad time from time share exit companies that were scamming.
@@alexpietsch7997 Correct lol
This is such garbage. His dad was a Disney executive so he had in at real estate and video production. No amount of making coffee at home is going to get you to millionaire status like graham
I don’t think he was an executive, they rented dude
Besides Graham would splash his cash more if it came from a trust fund
Bro what lol
