I get tired of black people talking about the system being the reason they haven't made it or they don't even try. I am a black man that did specific work for a law firm that no one else did for them. I learned how to do things better than they did and I realized how much they needed my knowledge. I decided to leave and start my own consulting business doing what I did for them for several different attorneys because I realized my intellectual property was worth more than what I was being paid. I am literally the only black person doing what I do on this level. I know whites and other races of people look down on me due to my race, but I'm never going to let other black people get into my head about things our ancestors dealt with bring me down. Just because people say you are worthless is because you are black doesn't mean you have to accept it. Keep moving forward. I almost fell on my face starting my own business and the law firm I worked for that didn't notice my worth started using me as a private contractor because the replacements they got after I left couldn't do what I did for them and I'm literally the only black person that worked in the office previously. Stop listening to black people leaning on things of the past. Yes I acknowledge some white people and other races don't like us, but stop letting that keep you down.
I 100% agree, but it's not that simple. You got a once in a lifetime opportunity to proof yourself. For many, that opportunity will never come or appears only years down the line. Your situation in this climate is more an exception than the rule. And I understand that having to proof yourself also applies to other races, but what I'm saying is: to reach the same opportunity you had, a black man will have to work 10 times harder as a white man with exactly the same background and the only difference being the color of their skin. For many, working 10 times harder would still not be enough. I'm all for proving your selfworth, but I believe the threshold to achieve results is disproportionally higher for black people.

I started to listen your channel four months ago. I was really lazy in my career. Now my income has gone up 40grand because I'm working so much more and I got a better position in new company. Thanks for the motivation.
I just said this on someone platform we as people have been conditioned to have that negative mentality about black men and higher values . I want my experienced men as Kevin to give the blinding insight on what has been going on since the beginning of time. Thanks Kevin and the many others who have positive feedback on these topics!
Once you get past the sting of being low ranking and "denied" to a degree... it gets exciting to think that there are real benefits to climbing the ladder. That, yes, we are not equal. And you also better your life as you better yourself. That it actually means something to overcome who you were AND that you can do it. What else would the incentive for going through a process as painful as self-realization be? Also I'm transferring to University next year from community college and I find it serendipitous that I stumble on Kevin's content shortly before doing so. I'm gonna put a strong focus on networking with as many people as I can. The school is in a wealthy area so there are sure to be High-Value peers and faculty. Oh and he also inspired me to pledge Kappa once I get there 🤟🏾💯

When he was taking to the young man about his father, that was some powerful stuff. As a grown man, if your father is in your life it’s now your responsibility to do all you can. Now if he’s a deadbeat, that’s a different story. But if you don’t have respect and reverence for your parents, your gonna have a hell of a time in the real world. I never knew my dad growing up. He took off with his drug habit before I was old enough to remember and I heard my mothers side for 30 years. Long story short, he found me and I made the grown decision to have a relationship with my dad and I couldn’t be happier. We got a long way to go but I’m glad I did.
Good post. KS summed it up when he told the young man: what happened between your Mom and your Dad is none of your business! ..... That came from a man that didn't have his Dad in his life..
I'm a elder son of 5 an a father of 3, I absolutely respect Kevin for asking men/women what does yr father says!? Before he could attempt to answer any questions. Thats Man shit.
You're speaking uncomfortable truths. We, black men collectively and globally, have been shutout of the economic opportunities. We, therefore, try to compensate from an early age by focusing on shit that doesn't matter in the grand scheme but makes us feel good. We, collectively(with many many noteworthy exceptions), know that the competition is tough and many bow out. In the immortal words of Marlo from "The Wire" "you want it to be one way but it's the other. You are absolutely right, high value is ONLY a point of contention among men who have no value and know that if it becomes acceptable widely WITHIN our community they will lose the little they have. Speak on my brother. Glad to have found your channel through a recommendation from my high-value brother. Salutations
As a average people I thank you for defining the meaning of high value. A man who is highly valued by the group of other highly valued men who can be utilized and used.
The amount of haters this man has is almost staggering. Quite a few TH-camrs (men and women) have his name in their titles just to get those clicks. Geeesh!
The women that hate dont like the truth he speaks and alot of them take part in fuckery. The guys on the other hand that hate, which is pretty sad, are dusty dudes that dont want to do the work especially these "woke" cats. I seen one youtuber, that will cosign polygamy then bash black women, and then throw rocks at successful black men
"lessor men will have to follow greater men" That is still okay because you will be heading some where great, as supposed to lacking vision and going no where.
The concept of class has always existed among all cultures and civilizations. Some even had caste systems which were enforced even more strictly than just simply earning a certain amount. So this concept is ancient and thus it makes no sense for people to be offended by it regardless of who’s among such a group.
I totally agree, the funny thing is when you go to "so called third world countries" it very much still exists. Its only in so called civilised first world countries people don't accept or are confused by the caste system.
Two points about a network. If a person has a network of 20,000 low value people, what does he have compared to a person who has a network of 20 high value people? Nothing. What is the ideal size of a network? Having large numbers in a database but no connection with the people is meaningless. I believe a solid network is no greater than 20. Jesus changed the world with 12. I would focus more on the quality of the network and the roles played by those in the network. The concept needs to be fleshed out.
I think we need to have a second term ... Term 1: High Value Man (HVM) = man of a consistent certain net worth and/or totality of assets (and network of other high income earners/groupings) that places him in the top 1 - 10% of all income earners (edit of course if don't like) .. Term 2: High Quality Man (HQM) = man with a desirable number (and set) of character qualities that place him among the top choices of his peer group (edit of course if you don't like)... I think this would help those who are less than enthused there is a HVM title in the first place. It would mean any man, regardless of demographics and income a man can be HQM but of course has nothing to do with being HVM which is first and foremost based on income
Initially I defined high value as subjective because high earning is a more appropriate objective term but I like the terms you proposed. I will be using this until Kevin’s book comes out.
@1:37:40 Facts! We need to be hungry and aggressive toward achieving our goals! We need to build and create! HVM leave legacies and create strong communities! Keep up the good work Kevin!
27:40 listen for one minute and you’ll learn the best lesson Kevin has ever given. This is the absolute truth, race aside, always be a student of the game and adapt to changes accordingly. Oh and my fragrance of the night, Creed Aventus.
Hey brother Kevin...you see how you bring out truth and what our people do is attack the messenger....they did that too the real Jesus...that"s the nature of our people..I like what you said about not Entertaining the haters
As the white son of a Single Mother who had to pay her for my father's sins it is not only a negative on the Black Community it has torn up the White Community too ! Thank you for addressing the Single Mother's raising generally sub standard Men. It has helped me answer some questions that I have had. Thank you Mr. Kevin !
Kevin I don’t think you are arrogant. You just don’t take abuse on your own platform and aren’t afraid to call bullshit when others try to dish it out. That’s just being confident.and a lot of people can’t handle that.
I don’t understand how parents get divorced and the son stays with the mom. My brother and I was at my dads hip nonstop we went with him everywhere even simple errands. He took us to Parks, bike riding, etc at least twice a week. if they ever got a divorce us being with our father would have been automatic without discussion no matter what the courts say and my mom knew that. I love my mom and all but I don’t understand these dudes staying with their mom instead of being with their father, I didn’t even know that was a thing and at 14 if my dad was leaving the house and I was the caller I would’ve told my dad “I’m coming with u” and packed my bags. idgaf if he was low value or not, the heck u living with your mom for.
that’s what I’m saying even if my dad tried to leave us I would’ve have voluntarily packed my own bags and told my dad “I’m coming with u”. When I was young I heard my parents get into numerous arguments that got to that point and I already knew what I was going to do. One of the reasons why my mom never divorced my dad and they always worked it out is because she knew me and my brother were going to dip as well to be with our father. Even at 7, 8, or 9 I knew instinctively that I needed to live with a man in the home. We someone to physically protect us, teach us how to use our hands, how to conduct ourselves amongst the presence of other men etc. we would’ve rejected the concept of allowing a women to raise us. But everybody’s father is different. For him to be 14 and sitting at home with his mom and not going with his dad is ludicrous to me. Idc if we were moving into a studio apartment I’m living with my dad and my dad knew this
Mannnnn Kevin you are speaking golden nuggets... wow... everything is facts!!! Keep it coming, the hell with these low value losers! I’m dropping the mic now....
High value men have a good grasp on Human behavior which is why the smartest people don't run the world. The men in power created a grading system with alphabets to allow people to think they are better and smarter Bec you got a certain "letter" on your test. These men know human behavior.

If you date only a lower class of males as a female, you're need to up your game to be with those brother's with higher value's or resources.!!!! MANY single females choice not to what to put in the needed work, but still want their internment purely because she's a woman, who has nothing positive to add to that kind of exchange with someone who has their game on right and going strong on all levels.!!! WE say " BLACK LIFE'S MATTERS" but refuse to come together and work together to build a better black. Community and up are own business values or how we rate to each other as mens and women's of color .!!!??????? THE fact is everything isn't always green on the other side and all that money doesn't always mean finding true happiness for everyone or enjoying dreams of living in that beautiful house or driving that one of a kind car and not put any kind of work to show their worthy of that kind of lifestyle.!!!-????? BECAUSE you think you're fine and that's all you're need to get by and discover it's not enough to get a man of value attention and able to convince him your able to bring something of value to add to his lifestyle besides that coke and a smile baby.!!!! MANY females today what the benefit's a man of value has to offer them; and believe a man of value should automatically take care of them ; even when she has shown she or he isn't worthy of that kind of lifestyle or relationship's and should stay in their own lane is the best thing to do for everyone's benefit ; unless you're willing to put in the work and show you're true worth as a female.!!!?????
@@cashonly4771 I asking all my brothas out there if you would please share this lesson (as well as other lessons about how to be an outstanding contributor to society) with other Black men. My father was and IS a HV man (Income, influence, character & grooming) so I grew up expecting that our brothas would have certain attributes. However, many don't have the benefit of having someone share these important lessons and concepts. So many want to be called and treated as Kings but only want to do the work of a pauper. SPREAD THE WORD!
@@IkeOg I have a quick question for you or @Kevin. What if you are dating a HVM who prefers you at a 8-10 vs. a size 4-6? Or for my friends the same. One of my girlfriend's guy prefers her at about a 10-12 which is fine for her too.
This was a lesson in power. Black folks dont understand POWER. No one cares how smart you are of if your right. Theres only one thing: POWER. I love that scene from Game of Thrones where Cersei threatens Margerie, the kings new queen loved by the people. Margerie says her influence and relationships are power and Cersei, queen mother, says, "Kill her." When the guards grab her she says "wait, i change my mind. Release her. Take three steps back. Turn around." And they do it "POWER is power."
High value black men should be applauded twice as much because black parents for the most part don't leave inheritances or give success guidance. Guys like Trump had most of the things on this list before they hit the ground running.
Can't understand why so many Fellas are butthurt by The Big Clipper's Concept of High Value. It is General in some aspects and Specific in others. It Cuts to the Chase , which is a good thing. It's the one Concept that gives ALL Men a chance. We should Celebrate Kevin for what he is doing for Men AND Women in all spaces as it pertains to Image/Empowerment/Co-Habitation from this day forward.
Whether or not you are a high value man, if you married a Jezebel, you will be put out to pasture when she is done with you, so choose wisely to secure your legacy.
Hmm. Question. Did blqs ever have a ranking system? Is that why they cant comprehend it now? Asians Natives Europeans always had and have a ranking system. So they understand it easily.
The role reversal for men and women is the problem. You have so many men that staying home doing with women supposed to do, and women doing what Men supposed to do. The woman saying it's Okay Stay Home. Right on Kevin, keep telling a man to be a man get your weight up
Run from any individual, group, entity or institution that tries to give you excuses for your personal failures. They are preventing you from learning from your mistakes which often are your best teachers.
I learned so much in this 2hr video.... many things that happened this last few years in my life make more sense now... I have so much work to do on myself...so much to do, so little time...

I can barely watch this livestream replay literally every 5 mins there is a commercial for ulcerative colitis or nexium........I might actually just chalk this replay up as a loss.......is this replay on Paetron cause this ain’t it............
Kevin makes a true point. My dad was a poorer black boy growing up in the 70's as the youngest child and got into the Air Force and was there for over 23 years going on 24 (23 years and 10 months and 19 days as he told me exactly lol) and he had bought a house or two and lived life and still had enough to make a life for himself the way he should've and now he works driving the local bus system here in Dallas area. Yet he got up and made something of himself when he was young and had a great job and did things that most black men will never be able to say they had. He went out there and made it happen! No ifs, ands or buts. So all these other black men need to stop playing about how they can't be anything when they aren't even trying to do what they need to do in order to change their lives they way they want!
Enough of the sugarcoating and being politically correct! Let's be dead honest 100%. High value is based on how much income you have + how many kids you have or dont have. BEST case scenario is to have no kids and your own income living comfortable. Each kid you have drops your value, cause they are essentially bills. It's exactly the same as credit / real estate: Debt to income ratio. If you have children then you need to have alot of income to offset it. HIGH value is being compatible with any relationship they choose to. High value means you have OPTIONS and do not have to settle. Bottom line. The only reason people are sugarcoating this is cause too many people are baby mamas / baby daddys so the truth hurts cause they're not qualified to be in the High Value category. I personally can attest to this 34, single, no kids, own cars, house, 56k year income with military benefits and medically retired. So i have income + time = High value for nearly any woman. This is all basic stats BEFORE you even get to the point of factoring in personality, if you smoke or drink (I dont do either one).
57:58 There was a couple on youtube. Millions of subs. They split up. The guy gave the channel to his ex. He started his own channel from scratch. He has now surpassed her, his old channel by a far number.
The truth hurts. You have introduced the Black community to a class structure that is not discussed in our community. Hopefully, once everyone gets over the shock of the HVM conversation you will be able to have discussions with people who will appreciate your knowledge and apply it to their lives.
Thats why he gets so much hate

Kevin- I am late to the party. You are doing men and our Black community a great service by bringing this conversation to the forefront. More importantly, i am impressed with the professional, intelligent way that you communicate the concepts. Thank you Brother. Keep up the good work!
This is the hottest channel on TH-cam 😎💪🏾👑
Agreed!!
Agree
I started to listen your channel four months ago. I was really lazy in my career. Now my income has gone up 40grand because I'm working so much more and I got a better position in new company. Thanks for the motivation.
I just said this on someone platform we as people have been conditioned to have that negative mentality about black men and higher values . I want my experienced men as Kevin to give the blinding insight on what has been going on since the beginning of time. Thanks Kevin and the many others who have positive feedback on these topics!
Once you get past the sting of being low ranking and "denied" to a degree... it gets exciting to think that there are real benefits to climbing the ladder. That, yes, we are not equal. And you also better your life as you better yourself. That it actually means something to overcome who you were AND that you can do it.
What else would the incentive for going through a process as painful as self-realization be?
Also I'm transferring to University next year from community college and I find it serendipitous that I stumble on Kevin's content shortly before doing so. I'm gonna put a strong focus on networking with as many people as I can. The school is in a wealthy area so there are sure to be High-Value peers and faculty.
Oh and he also inspired me to pledge Kappa once I get there 🤟🏾💯
Good luck to you!
It's been two years.
Status report!
Degrees, unless STEM, are worthless...
@@a.j.9727 STATUS REPORT: I'm going to a different University than expected, but things are going well! I just got back to town from a tour of the US with a male revue show (think Magic Mike), but I'm still studying hard and building my networking skills. Been going out every night since I got home and talking to people while sober. My life is WAY WAY better compared to two years ago and it seems like things will continue to get better as I do :)
I hate he passed away 😢
Killed. Liberals don’t want blacks to level up so they eliminated him. Malcolm X told us to beware of the white liberal. Remember the KKK we’re southern democrats!! We gone all vote Kamala anyway🤦🏽♂️. I dropped the community a LOOOOOONG time ago. Ninjas still sleep in 2024. I got mine ain’t looking back. Peace
When he was taking to the young man about his father, that was some powerful stuff. As a grown man, if your father is in your life it’s now your responsibility to do all you can. Now if he’s a deadbeat, that’s a different story. But if you don’t have respect and reverence for your parents, your gonna have a hell of a time in the real world. I never knew my dad growing up. He took off with his drug habit before I was old enough to remember and I heard my mothers side for 30 years. Long story short, he found me and I made the grown decision to have a relationship with my dad and I couldn’t be happier. We got a long way to go but I’m glad I did.
Good post. KS summed it up when he told the young man: what happened between your Mom and your Dad is none of your business! ..... That came from a man that didn't have his Dad in his life..
That’s really deep. I wish you all the best in your journey.
So...
How has the d ope he has been giving you?
I'm a elder son of 5 an a father of 3, I absolutely respect Kevin for asking men/women what does yr father says!? Before he could attempt to answer any questions. Thats Man shit.
This man was on his way to changing the world
Still doing that
This gives you a defined blueprint for young men to succeed.
That Tyrion Lannister analogy was so spot on! Winter is coming!
You're speaking uncomfortable truths. We, black men collectively and globally, have been shutout of the economic opportunities. We, therefore, try to compensate from an early age by focusing on shit that doesn't matter in the grand scheme but makes us feel good. We, collectively(with many many noteworthy exceptions), know that the competition is tough and many bow out. In the immortal words of Marlo from "The Wire" "you want it to be one way but it's the other. You are absolutely right, high value is ONLY a point of contention among men who have no value and know that if it becomes acceptable widely WITHIN our community they will lose the little they have. Speak on my brother. Glad to have found your channel through a recommendation from my high-value brother. Salutations
We are a community FILLED with emotional reactors and lacking logical responders. You doing a thankless job my man LMAO Salute
You keep tricking and lead with your wallet when you get woman..
As a average people I thank you for defining the meaning of high value. A man who is highly valued by the group of other highly valued men who can be utilized and used.
The amount of haters this man has is almost staggering. Quite a few TH-camrs (men and women) have his name in their titles just to get those clicks. Geeesh!
Truth... Having Hater's means you are doing something right!!!!
The women that hate dont like the truth he speaks and alot of them take part in fuckery. The guys on the other hand that hate, which is pretty sad, are dusty dudes that dont want to do the work especially these "woke" cats. I seen one youtuber, that will cosign polygamy then bash black women, and then throw rocks at successful black men
@@coreyceasar5795 I agree. If no one is talking about you, well, you are not doing something right.
@@rodgerelledge4151 I noticed that demographics as well, Rodger.
Kevin your a straight OG! Your doing what you say.. My General!
u get up every day for inequality.. u push yourself everyday to beat competion.. thats just nature so idk why this is such an crazed debate
The godfather was cooking with hot grease tonight!
Don't let them pull you in that bucket
"lessor men will have to follow greater men" That is still okay because you will be heading some where great, as supposed to lacking vision and going no where.
"the losses are what makes a fkin winner."
I needed this
The concept of class has always existed among all cultures and civilizations. Some even had caste systems which were enforced even more strictly than just simply earning a certain amount. So this concept is ancient and thus it makes no sense for people to be offended by it regardless of who’s among such a group.
People offended by it seem to have sub-90 IQ's.
I totally agree, the funny thing is when you go to "so called third world countries" it very much still exists. Its only in so called civilised first world countries people don't accept or are confused by the caste system.
Caste systems are antiquated and evil. Keep that crap in the third world where you probably came from.
Two points about a network.
If a person has a network of 20,000 low value people, what does he have compared to a person who has a network of 20 high value people? Nothing.
What is the ideal size of a network? Having large numbers in a database but no connection with the people is meaningless. I believe a solid network is no greater than 20. Jesus changed the world with 12.
I would focus more on the quality of the network and the roles played by those in the network. The concept needs to be fleshed out.
He said Network of other HVM🤦♂️🤦♂️
I think we need to have a second term ... Term 1: High Value Man (HVM) = man of a consistent certain net worth and/or totality of assets (and network of other high income earners/groupings) that places him in the top 1 - 10% of all income earners (edit of course if don't like) .. Term 2: High Quality Man (HQM) = man with a desirable number (and set) of character qualities that place him among the top choices of his peer group (edit of course if you don't like)... I think this would help those who are less than enthused there is a HVM title in the first place. It would mean any man, regardless of demographics and income a man can be HQM but of course has nothing to do with being HVM which is first and foremost based on income
Initially I defined high value as subjective because high earning is a more appropriate objective term but I like the terms you proposed. I will be using this until Kevin’s book comes out.
I would like a high quality man over a high value man
No. Why make new rules and this is the mentality that destroyed us. No one cares about high quality. Top 10% will always be 10%.
@1:37:40 Facts! We need to be hungry and aggressive toward achieving our goals! We need to build and create! HVM leave legacies and create strong communities! Keep up the good work Kevin!
O my 😆😆😆😆😆😆. Your subscribers tripled overnight Mr. Samuels. It’s a joy to watch you grow.
Good stream Kevin They goona learn one way or another
Does anyone else want to know who these moderates are? Great show!!!
Yep.
27:40 listen for one minute and you’ll learn the best lesson Kevin has ever given. This is the absolute truth, race aside, always be a student of the game and adapt to changes accordingly.

C students run the business. D students own the building. F students own the land
Ike is a highly intelligent man.
Black men always want something valuable for free or discount. I’m glad they’re finally being told to STEP IT UP.
This didn't age very well in regards to the Elon musk commentary.
Hey brother Kevin...you see how you bring out truth and what our people do is attack the messenger....they did that too the real Jesus...that"s the nature of our people..I like what you said about not Entertaining the haters
Why does the term or classification of High Value Male got so many with their Boxer in a bunch??? Just be your Best at your Abilities. SMH.
As the white son of a Single Mother who had to pay her for my father's sins it is not only a negative on the Black Community it has torn up the White Community too !
Thank you for addressing the Single Mother's raising generally sub standard
Men.
It has helped me answer some questions that I have had. Thank you Mr. Kevin !
Me too mate.
Australian society is rife with the results of 1970 and 1980s single mothers and busted up sons.
Kevin I don’t think you are arrogant. You just don’t take abuse on your own platform and aren’t afraid to call bullshit when others try to dish it out. That’s just being confident.and a lot of people can’t handle that.
I don’t understand how parents get divorced and the son stays with the mom. My brother and I was at my dads hip nonstop we went with him everywhere even simple errands. He took us to Parks, bike riding, etc at least twice a week. if they ever got a divorce us being with our father would have been automatic without discussion no matter what the courts say and my mom knew that. I love my mom and all but I don’t understand these dudes staying with their mom instead of being with their father, I didn’t even know that was a thing and at 14 if my dad was leaving the house and I was the caller I would’ve told my dad “I’m coming with u” and packed my bags. idgaf if he was low value or not, the heck u living with your mom for.
that’s what I’m saying even if my dad tried to leave us I would’ve have voluntarily packed my own bags and told my dad “I’m coming with u”. When I was young I heard my parents get into numerous arguments that got to that point and I already knew what I was going to do. One of the reasons why my mom never divorced my dad and they always worked it out is because she knew me and my brother were going to dip as well to be with our father. Even at 7, 8, or 9 I knew instinctively that I needed to live with a man in the home. We someone to physically protect us, teach us how to use our hands, how to conduct ourselves amongst the presence of other men etc. we would’ve rejected the concept of allowing a women to raise us. But everybody’s father is different. For him to be 14 and sitting at home with his mom and not going with his dad is ludicrous to me. Idc if we were moving into a studio apartment I’m living with my dad and my dad knew this
Wtf is so hard about the concept of high value? Kevin cant make it any simpler.
Mannnnn Kevin you are speaking golden nuggets... wow... everything is facts!!! Keep it coming, the hell with these low value losers! I’m dropping the mic now....
High value men have a good grasp on Human behavior which is why the smartest people don't run the world. The men in power created a grading system with alphabets to allow people to think they are better and smarter Bec you got a certain "letter" on your test. These men know human behavior.

Ike a open minded dude and can do his own show if he wanted.
From quoting Nietzsche to quoting the Bible. I also never considered using our lives as a type of business plan. 🤯🎊
It’s a good feeling listing to guys that don’t waste their breath.
Great conversation, keep them coming Kevin! 🏆
If you date only a lower class of males as a female, you're need to up your game to be with those brother's with higher value's or resources.!!!!
MANY single females choice not to what to put in the needed work, but still want their internment purely because she's a woman, who has nothing positive to add to that kind of exchange with someone who has their game on right and going strong on all levels.!!!
WE say " BLACK LIFE'S MATTERS" but refuse to come together and work together to build a better black. Community and up are own business values or how we rate to each other as mens and women's of color .!!!???????
THE fact is everything isn't always green on the other side and all that money doesn't always mean finding true happiness for everyone or enjoying dreams of living in that beautiful house or driving that one of a kind car and not put any kind of work to show their worthy of that kind of lifestyle.!!!-?????
BECAUSE you think you're fine and that's all you're need to get by and discover it's not enough to get a man of value attention and able to convince him your able to bring something of value to add to his lifestyle besides that coke and a smile baby.!!!!
MANY females today what the benefit's a man of value has to offer them; and believe a man of value should automatically take care of them ; even when she has shown she or he isn't worthy of that kind of lifestyle or relationship's and should stay in their own lane is the best thing to do for everyone's benefit ; unless you're willing to put in the work and show you're true worth as a female.!!!?????
My humble immigrant opinion: Economics over politics. Money talks. Simple.
I'm glad I came across this man's channel. Here I've learned what it means to be a high value man vs. a passive beta male. Thanks, Kevin!
The basis of this all black brothers especially "GET TO WORK" lets improve our selves to the highest quality these earthly avatar bodies can be.
10 out of 10 kevin anything that you've said regarding this subject you are spot on 👍👍👍👍
hey Kevin that show you did on lets be friend was needed you should do more and expand on that subject.
As real HVM know...it aint trickin if you got it! Those who use that term dont usually "have it" LOL
Ayeeee. 🤑🤑
I have never argued with a woman about money in my life. Real ones know
@@cashonly4771 I asking all my brothas out there if you would please share this lesson (as well as other lessons about how to be an outstanding contributor to society) with other Black men. My father was and IS a HV man (Income, influence, character & grooming) so I grew up expecting that our brothas would have certain attributes. However, many don't have the benefit of having someone share these important lessons and concepts. So many want to be called and treated as Kings but only want to do the work of a pauper. SPREAD THE WORD!
@@IkeOg I have a quick question for you or @Kevin. What if you are dating a HVM who prefers you at a 8-10 vs. a size 4-6? Or for my friends the same. One of my girlfriend's guy prefers her at about a 10-12 which is fine for her too.
It ain’t “SIMPIN” if you got it!
This was a lesson in power. Black folks dont understand POWER. No one cares how smart you are of if your right. Theres only one thing: POWER.
I love that scene from Game of Thrones where Cersei threatens Margerie, the kings new queen loved by the people. Margerie says her influence and relationships are power and Cersei, queen mother, says, "Kill her." When the guards grab her she says "wait, i change my mind. Release her. Take three steps back. Turn around." And they do it
"POWER is power."
No that was little finger.
High value black men should be applauded twice as much because black parents for the most part don't leave inheritances or give success guidance. Guys like Trump had most of the things on this list before they hit the ground running.
If this what it takes to be high value then I’ll do it because I want power and I want to be rich and wealthy
Can't understand why so many Fellas are butthurt by The Big Clipper's Concept of High Value. It is General in some aspects and Specific in others. It Cuts to the Chase , which is a good thing. It's the one Concept that gives ALL Men a chance. We should Celebrate Kevin for what he is doing for Men AND Women in all spaces as it pertains to Image/Empowerment/Co-Habitation from this day forward.
racer exile don’t forget being raised by single mothers!!!
Whether or not you are a high value man, if you married a Jezebel, you will be put out to pasture when she is done with you, so choose wisely to secure your legacy.
“Some men move like women.” Yep, there it is!
It was great to finally hear Big Ike!
I honestly liked this setup and the videos back then more. Helped change my life around.
I'm glad this got recommended to me today, even though it's 10 months ago.
Kevin , you've hit the nail on the head. Best video I've heard in a long time. Thumbs UP!
I have been married 25yrs. I think you're doing a great job. If I'm learning,,,,,,
Too many dam commercials on Kevin’s work…
Hmm.
Question.
Did blqs ever have a ranking system? Is that why they cant comprehend it now?
Asians

Europeans always had and have a ranking system. So they understand it easily.

Okay Stay Home. Right on Kevin, keep telling a man to be a man get your weight up
Do you plan on making the book into an audiobook?
"high value man" is just a way for gold diggers to say rich man without admitting they are gold diggers LOL
You assume any women are not looking for high value Dave. You swimming in ladies who turn down wealthy men?
Run from any individual, group, entity or institution that tries to give you excuses for your personal failures. They are preventing you from learning from your mistakes which often are your best teachers.

Kevin makes a true point. My dad was a poorer black boy growing up in the 70's as the youngest child and got into the Air Force and was there for over 23 years going on 24 (23 years and 10 months and 19 days as he told me exactly lol) and he had bought a house or two and lived life and still had enough to make a life for himself the way he should've and now he works driving the local bus system here in Dallas area. Yet he got up and made something of himself when he was young and had a great job and did things that most black men will never be able to say they had. He went out there and made it happen! No ifs, ands or buts. So all these other black men need to stop playing about how they can't be anything when they aren't even trying to do what they need to do in order to change their lives they way they want!
Enough of the sugarcoating and being politically correct! Let's be dead honest 100%. High value is based on how much income you have + how many kids you have or dont have. BEST case scenario is to have no kids and your own income living comfortable. Each kid you have drops your value, cause they are essentially bills. It's exactly the same as credit / real estate: Debt to income ratio. If you have children then you need to have alot of income to offset it. HIGH value is being compatible with any relationship they choose to. High value means you have OPTIONS and do not have to settle. Bottom line. The only reason people are sugarcoating this is cause too many people are baby mamas / baby daddys so the truth hurts cause they're not qualified to be in the High Value category. I personally can attest to this 34, single, no kids, own cars, house, 56k year income with military benefits and medically retired. So i have income + time = High value for nearly any woman. This is all basic stats BEFORE you even get to the point of factoring in personality, if you smoke or drink (I dont do either one).
