yeah. He said in an interview with Tim Ferriss that he saw bodybuilders/actors doing things that they were not comfortable with due to a lack of funds. He was determined that it was not going to happen to him.
When he was getting into amateur competitions, he wrote out a 50 year plan..one of the goals he listed was to be a millionaire before 30..he made it two to three years ahead of schedule. While other actors were waiting tables between gigs, Arnold still had his businesses and his freedom. He is incredible.
If only "steroids" were as magical as you claim. There is responsible use and abuse but you only hear about abuse. It's more than likely Arnold has for the most part lived a clean life. He doesn't eat shit, he doesn't abuse his health, he's always been active, and has great genetics coupled with testosterone and maybe some other substances. It was pretty obvious Arnold and Stallone were always going to age better and be in better than than the average person in their 60's and 70's
Nathanb, nothing wrong with having grey hair when you're fucking 70 Arnold's desire at that age to color his hair while leaving zero grey in fact makes him seem insecure - he's not 30
Man Graham you have so much AWESOME content, very versatile and you let people talk and listen. The most simple stuff makes the biggest differences. Thank you!
***** lmao I'm sorry, this is the importance of grammar! I meant to say "You let people talk, and listen!" referring to other interviewers who constantly interrupt!
Graham Bensinger Yeah more investment interviews please! This and the one with Barkley talking about Jordan and stocks are my favorite two 🤗🤗 and the Kelly Slater one now that I'm thinking of it 🏄🏿♂️
Love your interviews. Your questions seem well researched and are very interesting and fun. Also how you let the conversation flow and you let the guest talk while maintaining eye contact. You are the man!
Arnold looks great! He looks younger now than he did 7-8 years ago! This guy has one of the most inspiring stories ever told! Truly a man one should model! Especially when it comes to work ethic and mindset
I read Arnold's Biography, the entire reason the film industry picked him up was because in the 70s he was heavily promoting Body Building Championships. Trying to get the word out, so he bought time on a talk show. Showed up and talked about Body Building. People thought body builders were idiot neanderthal people. Arnold not only impressed them but got them interested, plus he had such a huge physique at 6ft 2 and 250lbs people couldn't stop staring at him. The dude had the money to buy a few minutes on a talk show just to advertise his business. Imagine what you could do if you could save up and just buy some time on a talk show!
Arnold Schwarzenegger is a born businessman!! Intelligent, shrewd and balanced, with immense self confidence and will-power, Arnie is a self made man, who broke from the shackles of penury to become a champion bodybuilder, Hollywood celebrity and a multi-millionaire, and not to forget, the Governor of the richest US state!
Schwarzenegger was a millionare before he was in a movie, before bodybuilding took off. Schwarzenegger was ALWAYS going to be a success. He plays himself up like a buffoon, but he's shrewd as fuck.
He was not a millionaire and not even famous until he played Conan in the 1980's. Pumping Iron documentary was 5 years earlier abut nobody remembered him a few days after watching it.
***** Yeah, he was a millionare. He rented out a bunch of apartments while having a a successful construction company. Nobody said anything about him being famous, being famous isnt synynomous with being successful.
I think he got here in the 1960s. Lots of people retain their accents, for some reason and with Arnold it is a bit of a trademark, so he probably doesn't want to lose it entirely.
I live in Wisconsin and met a guy yesterday out on the mountain bike trails. Had a thick accent so I asked where he was from and he said Poland, but he's lived in the US for over 30 years. Apparently it stays with you.
He came to the US well past the Critical Period in linguistics. You can never fully lose the accent of your mother tongue if you emigrate in your teens or later.
He had $ 26000 and paid $ 240000 for the apartment building where did the financing come from ? I think that anyone who had somebody bank rolling them back in the 70s would have been just as successful.
so if the math adds up he paid basically 10% downpayment financed the rest $214,000.00 the average home mortgage interest rate was 8.5% when Arnold probably bought his building at age 23. arnold came to the usa in 1968. from what i can calculate the average mortgage rate in 1970 was around 8.50% assuming he got the 30 year mortgage he would need to pay $1869/month (with property tax/home owner insurance) if just principal and interest 1,645.47/month. from what i can find is that the average cali rent in 1970 was $126/month. so if arnold had 5 units he would only collect around $630/month. he would need to make up for it with his bricklaying business/mail order business/seminars.
I also made my millions in real estate. I started off with a unit and today have a portfolio i could onli ever dream of. Driving my lambo, reminds me of what i did to get to this stage.
I can not believe how young Arnie looks here. He's put on some size, grown some facial hair and got rid of at least 50% of his bouffant hair do and it's taken years off him.
Funny, in his book Arnold admits a real estate lady went out of her way to explain every housing segment in L.A. and she was the one who set him up with his first apartment building. It wasn't his nose, it was a CONNECTION.
I thought this was a interview from 2006 or, he looked younger now lol. I thought he looked bad ass with the grey goatee and stash, but he looks awesome here.
Imagine the Terminator being your landlord and coming by to collect your rent money. Arnold: “Rent is due.” Tenant: “I get paid tomorrow and I swear I’ll give you every penny!” Arnold: “Okay, I’ll be back.”
I keep on thinking about the Bill Burr bit on Arnold which is hilariously true and even an ESPN short film on his start in body building. The man is pretty remarkable.
The shame in this great short clip of Arnold is that most people will miss his message. He was a millionaire off of commercial real estate even before he made his 1st movie! Now if a kid from another country can do it so can you. If you want to do business instead of being famous....the choice is yours! He was lucky enough to make it in Hollywood but he didn't need Hollywood for his livelihood! Facts!
He wasn't happy in Austria. His dad was not nice to him. He barely knew his older brother. There were no opportunities to get ahead in sports in Austria.
That’s totally impressive!! Way back before I was born even, at the time Arnold’s talking about, $26,000 was a FUCKLOAD of money!! My parents had a two-story, 5-bed, 3-bath that was the cream of the crop in the safest and cleanest neighborhood in San Diego! They bought it in the ‘80s for $200,000! And way back in the 80s this was CRAZY money! (My grandpa was the COO of Marwais Steel and Pinole Point Steel so my dad was always a serious breadwinner!) After the bubble burst after the recession how much did it go up?? A TOTAL VALUE OF $1.2 MILLION DOLLARS!! Even the property I have in North Park, that’s way smaller and in no way is gonna appreciate that much, went up more than $500,000 value after the recession! So, hopefully there aren’t a lot of Gen Y or Gen Z kids out there watching this video and going, “Wow! $26,000 is dirt cheap!” In the 70s and 80s it was SERIOUS cash!! I put about $26,000 in bitcoin and I’m seeing it go sky-high as an investment now so if I wanted to I could cash in everything and officially retire at the age of 40 or 50 if I wanted to! (I’m 38 now.) That’s awesome Arnold had the common sense and willpower to not blow all that money on cocaine and hookers and strippers, like a lot of dumbasses would! Arnold rocks!!
Fascinating that he was a millionaire even before he came into movies or joined politics years later. This guy is amazing!
California especially LA real estate was insanely profitable during the 70’s.Prices were doubling or tripling every few years.
yeah. He said in an interview with Tim Ferriss that he saw bodybuilders/actors doing things that they were not comfortable with due to a lack of funds. He was determined that it was not going to happen to him.
When he was getting into amateur competitions, he wrote out a 50 year plan..one of the goals he listed was to be a millionaire before 30..he made it two to three years ahead of schedule. While other actors were waiting tables between gigs, Arnold still had his businesses and his freedom. He is incredible.
Imagine being late with your rent when the Terminator is your landlord lol
haha
Dwa Gua, Hugh Pai Meeh NOWW! : l
Look! It may take a while. If you want to wait, there's a bench right there.
Arnold- I'll be back
+Roy Munson LMAO AAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAA
"Pay the rent if you want to live."
1) Crush your enemies
2) See them driven before you
3) Hear the lamentation of the women
Profit!
Conan
imagine him knocking on your door in 1970 demanding the rent

“ You need to leave... Did you hear me?... Put that cookie down nowwww!!”
Give me rent
Arnold's looking slick for nearly 70💪💪💪
who said steriods were no good
If only "steroids" were as magical as you claim. There is responsible use and abuse but you only hear about abuse.
It's more than likely Arnold has for the most part lived a clean life. He doesn't eat shit, he doesn't abuse his health, he's always been active, and has great genetics coupled with testosterone and maybe some other substances. It was pretty obvious Arnold and Stallone were always going to age better and be in better than than the average person in their 60's and 70's
dutchschaefer hes had 2 or 3 triple bypass surgeries so yeah if you can afford to keep it going if not though youre done
This guy just oozes success.
Arnold did pretty good for himself too.
@@user-js2dr9gv1u you keep posting about him being ubermensch and it's absolute cringe
The more I learn about arnold the more Im amazed by how much this guy achieved, and all from scratch... great inspiration
Me: Sorry, I don't have the rent right now..
Arnie: I'll be back...
what a life this guy has had... great stories and a success and still seems a very humble men.
Arnold looks younger with that haircut and 5 o'clock shadow. Smart move Arnie
Don't forget the hair dye....
pfff smart assistant.
definitely looks younger...
+BiGTiMe NeRD And the botox and surgery.
Will Scarlett and hgh
Best looking 70 year old.
Nathanb, nothing wrong with having grey hair when you're fucking 70
Arnold's desire at that age to color his hair while leaving zero grey in fact makes him seem insecure - he's not 30
hair dye helps
Samuel L Jackson looks even better
I look okay for 70.
I'm 39
Man Graham you have so much AWESOME content, very versatile and you let people talk and listen. The most simple stuff makes the biggest differences. Thank you!
Thanks!
"You let people listen"?
Very contradictory +LifeIsGreat
***** lmao I'm sorry, this is the importance of grammar! I meant to say "You let people talk, and listen!" referring to other interviewers who constantly interrupt!
I know, just pointing it out for a laugh.
Howard Stern should take some pointers.
great interview Graham
Thanks!
Graham Bensinge
Graham Bensinger Yeah more investment interviews please! This and the one with Barkley talking about Jordan and stocks are my favorite two 🤗🤗 and the Kelly Slater one now that I'm thinking of it 🏄🏿♂️
Wow Arnold lookin damn good for his age! Getting out of the governor's mansion probably did a lot for his stress levels.
Love your interviews. Your questions seem well researched and are very interesting and fun. Also how you let the conversation flow and you let the guest talk while maintaining eye contact. You are the man!
OMG I LOVE ARNOLD
fucking love the guy!
I love Butthead.
Love these videos because Bensinger always interviews the best people! Keep it up!
Interesting of all if his investments
This is without a doubt the greatest Arnold Interview ever you got him to just sit down and talk about his life very well done
Graham, you're the best interviewer I've ever seen; I've seen a lot of your videos, not just this one.
An amazing individual. He has had the highest success in everything he has touched!!
Wow. Arnold wearing Adidas superstars! I feel different about my collection now.
Arnold looks great! He looks younger now than he did 7-8 years ago! This guy has one of the most inspiring stories ever told! Truly a man one should model! Especially when it comes to work ethic and mindset
At times, I find it hard not to be some jealous of him. I know he earned it.

- Arnold Schwarzenegger, 2019
I read Arnold's Biography, the entire reason the film industry picked him up was because in the 70s he was heavily promoting Body Building Championships. Trying to get the word out, so he bought time on a talk show. Showed up and talked about Body Building. People thought body builders were idiot neanderthal people.

The dude had the money to buy a few minutes on a talk show just to advertise his business. Imagine what you could do if you could save up and just buy some time on a talk show!
So he says he has 26k and then afterwards he says he buys an apartment for 200k? so what did i miss in between?
Probably took a loan
Wow a guy that didn't have a small loan of a million dollars that made it big.
Arnold Schwarzenegger is a born businessman!! Intelligent, shrewd and balanced, with immense self confidence and will-power, Arnie is a self made man, who broke from the shackles of penury to become a champion bodybuilder, Hollywood celebrity and a multi-millionaire, and not to forget, the Governor of the richest US state!
" You can call me whatever you want but please don't ever call me a self made man "
Arnold Schwarzenegger XD
@@stayingalivewithsaad5351 why ?
Renter- " Sorry Arnold, I just don't have the rent right now"
Arnold- "I'll be back"
That would be iconic lol
damn
he looks young like 55 years old
Right. And he looks better now then 5yrs ago. Amazing human being!
Terminator genetics lol
because he always takes care of himself that why.
that and the millions of dollars he has makes that possible. definitely doesn't look 70
he lookes young more then jcvd
Schwarzenegger was a millionare before he was in a movie, before bodybuilding took off. Schwarzenegger was ALWAYS going to be a success. He plays himself up like a buffoon, but he's shrewd as fuck.
I don't think he play himself up like a buffoon at all. Alot of people have this perception for some reason.
Because he is....wait this is ironic LOL
your comment is spot on.
He was not a millionaire and not even famous until he played Conan in the 1980's. Pumping Iron documentary was 5 years earlier abut nobody remembered him a few days after watching it.
*****
Yeah, he was a millionare. He rented out a bunch of apartments while having a a successful construction company. Nobody said anything about him being famous, being famous isnt synynomous with being successful.
Great real estate timing. It would almost be impossible to do that in today's RE market especially in Santa Monica.
The hair cut makes him look so much younger, love the outfit too.
I started at 19. Millions before my 35th. Retired at 38. RE = fastest vehicle to achieve financial freedom if you work hard at it for 20 years.
Nah man, it's good stocks
Very interesting interview for pressing the issue on Arnol's other successes.
How does he sound so Austrian still. Literally left 30+ years ago and sounds like he arrived yesterday.
I think he got here in the 1960s. Lots of people retain their accents, for some reason and with Arnold it is a bit of a trademark, so he probably doesn't want to lose it entirely.
I live in Wisconsin and met a guy yesterday out on the mountain bike trails. Had a thick accent so I asked where he was from and he said Poland, but he's lived in the US for over 30 years. Apparently it stays with you.
Because of Personal Branding
He came to the US well past the Critical Period in linguistics. You can never fully lose the accent of your mother tongue if you emigrate in your teens or later.
If you spoke any foreign language you'd know how tough it is
great example of being successful money wise.
Lovin the trainers 😂
Mr. Arnold Schwarzenegger looks so youthful and sleek. You owned 100's apartments? Wow! Thank you. Your fans. xox
amazing example of what you can achieve in life
truly remarkable man
True Legend!
And that haircut! 👍🏼
good story.
There is a saying in antiquity -
Standing vigil when the numbers are small makes you worthy of overseeing fortunes.
Living proof right here.
he is a true leader
Great interwiew with the Greatest bodybuider of all time,Arnold has everything,Charisma,Class,know how,everything!
This guys story is truly amazing.
He had $ 26000 and paid $ 240000 for the apartment building where did the financing come from ? I think that anyone who had somebody bank rolling them back in the 70s would have been just as successful.
That's the question that I was trying to figure out!
the financing came from the Bodybuilding Mr Olympia money
so if the math adds up he paid basically 10% downpayment
financed the rest $214,000.00
the average home mortgage interest rate was 8.5% when Arnold probably bought his building at age 23. arnold came to the usa in 1968.
from what i can calculate the average mortgage rate in 1970 was around 8.50%
assuming he got the 30 year mortgage he would need to pay $1869/month (with property tax/home owner insurance) if just principal and interest 1,645.47/month.
from what i can find is that the average cali rent in 1970 was $126/month. so if arnold had 5 units he would only collect around $630/month. he would need to make up for it with his bricklaying business/mail order business/seminars.
he has the same haircut he had in 1999 interview in the church :P
Awesome interview! Take risks to make rewards.
I also made my millions in real estate. I started off with a unit and today have a portfolio i could onli ever dream of. Driving my lambo, reminds me of what i did to get to this stage.
hahaha, sure kid, sure
That haircut, the clothes, and the way he's sitting. *hes feeling 45 years younger*
What a really good facelift, he looks ten years younger
here in germany he would get a shitstorm speaking about his money, in the states he earns respekt for this!! strange world! much love for arnie 💪
As an expat American living in Austria 🇦🇹 i totally agree. Very different attitudes towards financial success
Try to make this kind of investment in France, and you will see what will happen to you.
I had no idea. Graham interviews are so fascinating...
I can not believe how young Arnie looks here. He's put on some size, grown some facial hair and got rid of at least 50% of his bouffant hair do and it's taken years off him.
Thank you
"Gosh i hope the landlord doesnt mind if i pay the rent 2 days late."
Arnold at the door: "Get Out😎"
Calves still ripping thru them pants lol 👌🏼🙏🏼 #Icon
Calf implants, def!
He has small calves fool
Wow I'm feeling inspired. America truly is the land of opportunity. FANTASTIC
Arnold Schwarzenegger #1
great, close, personal interview
OMG look at him, he looks GREAT. Schwarzenegger has clearly been training heaps since leaving politics. #aginggoals
This man is a living legend. I love his approach. I am using the same approach for my life. Thank you Arnold
Very smart decision ! Your vision to do things Successfully and you did it ! Congratulations !
great stuff nice to here the finance side of Arnold.
"I'll be back for my rent money"
and I'm like What??!?
The new hair and beard makes him look younger...like in the "end of days" from 1999
Moral of the story: If you want to win at life, listen to The Arnold.
I would go to his webinar
Funny, in his book Arnold admits a real estate lady went out of her way to explain every housing segment in L.A. and she was the one who set him up with his first apartment building. It wasn't his nose, it was a CONNECTION.
Woa, I never knew he was so successful in real estate before he was in films :O Always thought he got money from movies. Mad respect for Arnie.
First you get the money then you get the power then you get the women, totally agree
I thought this was a interview from 2006 or, he looked younger now lol. I thought he looked bad ass with the grey goatee and stash, but he looks awesome here.
How much is needed ?
Imagine the Terminator being your landlord and coming by to collect your rent money.
Arnold: “Rent is due.”
Tenant: “I get paid tomorrow and I swear I’ll give you every penny!”
Arnold: “Okay, I’ll be back.”
Such a respectable person!
What an Incredible guy amazing !
Is he getting younger? I thought this video comes from the early 2000's judging from his look. Btw nice haircut.
szymusiek1980 Goddamn great haircut!
I think its the stress lifted off as governor also
When you show up late with the rent:
*"I've been waiting for you......"*
I keep on thinking about the Bill Burr bit on Arnold which is hilariously true and even an ESPN short film on his start in body building. The man is pretty remarkable.
He’s absolutely unbelievable
levels to the game
was it luck or calculated risk or was there some great guidance from a mentor or what exactly? If anyone know, please share.
The shame in this great short clip of Arnold is that most people will miss his message. He was a millionaire off of commercial real estate even before he made his 1st movie! Now if a kid from another country can do it so can you. If you want to do business instead of being famous....the choice is yours! He was lucky enough to make it in Hollywood but he didn't need Hollywood for his livelihood! Facts!
Arnold looks very nice!
He did one of the most hardest thing ever leave family and going to a country where I don’t speak the language
Not so hard when you want to get away from your family...a friend told me.
He wasn't happy in Austria. His dad was not nice to him. He barely knew his older brother. There were no opportunities to get ahead in sports in Austria.
That’s totally impressive!! Way back before I was born even, at the time Arnold’s talking about, $26,000 was a FUCKLOAD of money!!

I've never seen him in those shoes before, lol
If you like this, Read Arnold’s autobiography - Total Recall.
Phenomenal book, amazing to see how much someone can fit into one life.
The man is a genius, a pure genius..
This guy going to make it!
Wow I have alot more respect for Arnold now
3:17 lol for double? lol 7-8 doublings
Still so humble
If Denis Villeneue could direct legend of Conan
Well damn, didn't know that!
My objective is installation of 2*10^(46) watt solar panel
Hes the embodiment of the American dream
He's a real Star with huge Carisma.
