Dude you killed it. There are a lot of stupid "business owners" our there that are pure ego centric they're not in business to make a difference they're not in business to make positive changes in their community. They just want to have stuff and look successful because of greed.
Good reminders. "Good business people take aggressive action during recessions", this reminds me of a bbc interview with li ka shing, richest man in hong kong, where he talks about aggressively using the money he made selling plastic items to the US to buy up shipping ports during the global trade recession, which ended up turning him from a millionaire to a billionaire.
Couldn't agree more with both of you. Now is the time for us business owners, and even large companies, to be taking massive action and to expand into the market, while competition all contracts. Let's make 2020 great brother! :)
Agreed John. I would rather cut non essential staff and give your business the best chance of survival. In order to have Jobs for the rest of your staff. No business = zero jobs
I'm so glad that I found you. Don't get me wrong, I love Gary Vee and his positive attitude but he's only half of the type of mentor that entrepreneurs need. He's the uplifting voice to keep people motivated. However, you sir, are that voice that kicks us in the ass and keeps us in a straight line. You bring things to reality and it is awesome. You are challenging entrepreneurs and giving them 100% facts on what entrepreneur life. Keep doing what you do. - Online marketing business owner and NASM Certified Personal Trainer.
Grant Cardone is allegedly in BIG FINANCIAL TROUBLE he just 10X:ed the problems for his employees and investors 🤦🏾♂️ He axed 44 people without notice and handed them notices telling them if they have any issues with this take it up with his lawyers after that ordeal he then releases a TH-cam video talking about how he wants to re employ them after the recession is over My question is who in their right mind would wanna come back to an organization like that bearing in mind most of his employees probably have cash tied up in Cardone capital which they can’t get out of because of the 10 year no negotiation contract for accredited and unaccredited investors and he is still buying real estate , the guy must be over leveraged... that means he has a 1 Billion dollar debt to take care of when vacancies are happening from his properties that he probably never could predict and he claims that they are recession proof from what I have seen it’s middle class multi family apartments which means people lose jobs and move out to cheaper places 🤷🏾♂️a
I'm now going to start thinking like how Alex operates in his life in general. Watching his videos all cuts through all BS and will save you from unnecessary wasteful efforts, disappointments, learning curves, perhaps heartbreak, and etc. - decades of them so to speak - and this what makes his advice especially to young generations so invaluable. I will always look forward to videos like these. No non-sense, no BS.
This might be the best video I've seen in 2020 so far...very insightful, honest and felt like I just learned so much in such a short time. Thanks, Alex!
The key is to keep your debt very low. If at all. People that go into debt for consumption items really pay a price. Because once the Slowdown comes the debt doesn't get smaller it just becomes harder to pay.
Halfway through the video I learned so much I haven't heard somewhere else within minutes. I cannot say anything else but I loved this video and will keep this for future reference. I will always look after your next videos Thanks Alex.
When I first watched this video when it came out I had no idea what it truely meant to run a business. Now I wanted to say thank you, Alex. You’ve really taught me a thing or two
My God, you spoke the truth. Bad things happen - we have to deal with it. If your business solution is to fire your employees in a pandemic - then you don't really need them which means your business sucks anyway. The purpose of employees is to be part of the system generating money. For the most part. That you fire them meant that they were not essential workers, you see them as replaceable. To be used to your convenience. How is that a good business? It was always going to be bad because the turnover was so high.
Great to see everything come full circle for you Becker. Watched your videos for years now and it’s so much different today. So interesting, thanks for the video man.
In the recession of early 1990's I wanted my parents to instead of selling their Nokia shares in the market exchange those to what I had in my account since it seemed so stupid to sell when everything had become fraction of their previous value. You know the general company making everything including rubber boots nearly bankrupt who bet that if they concentrated 100% on their electronics divisions mobile phone group and cut everything else off they would get up from the recession. My parents said, no. They were trying to conserve money and de-risk what they had and get out of such things. While I wanted to have a bet that could make me more money than I could imagine and if I lost it wouldn't of mattered much anyway since that money would of sat in my account doing nothing. Both perspectives are right. Now what kind of emotional roller coaster dotcom boom would of been for me if that had happened. I would of either sold too early to buy apartment when got to university and felt bad when stock sky rocketed to next hights or suffered from regret when the stock came down and I didn't buy the apartment. Either way I would of felt regret at some point in time and felt that I made wrong decision. This thought just gave me new perspective on stupidity of regret while writing this.
Handy men are not appliance repairmen that takes tons of training they are a dying breed, try finding one. Paying someone for fixing things on your house in a recession is not how things work out . 2 mechanic is not a side hustle its a career that requires education and 1000's of dollars in tools.
'Thank God I saw writing on the wall' - what exactly writing are you talking about, did you write something in the moments of insights and put them on the wall?
Our business has been in business for 60 years in 2021 and we’re growing! We haven’t laid off one single employee during this quarantine. We’re even ready to hire people because of the growth we’ve experienced! Don’t get me wrong. It has not been easy! But we’ve persevered!
how do you not have more views? i am on a binge watching ur vids after discovering you. your content is just of great value lol idk why people dont watch these kind of videos
Hey Alex , so I did a dopamine fast for a week and I’ve noticed my productivity is a lot higher. I also love league of legends and was wondering if it would mess up my productivity level if I played every now and then. Because I heard you talk a little bit about still playing smash bros. Thank you for your time !
if you play every now and then its alright. just have fun while you do it but when you get tired just stop. the more you do it the more addicting it gets
@@victrmeleth True thats what i was thinking. I usually go hard in the morning -afternoon then play a couple of games. But i feel guilty af when i do play them ha
Yes i agree.. The good and loyal staff will help greatly in recession alas bosses are greedy and they will pay for it. Being good to community will help greatly.
Well worded. I was thinking the same thing when I heard some of those were laying off, after they kept telling people to be ready for a recession because its coming soon. Yet they lay off 1 week in. Lost my respect when that happen.
The love for people is Always the way to go.... in good times and bad times.... money is a weapon that you may use to guard your people.....always in reserve for that purpose. Above all Love one another. Love of money never works out... imminently into doom for the here And the hereafter. Alex I need to come visit you in your minimalist tower overlooking I can't figure out the scenario...
I am impressed with your book. And I am doing what you say. There is something I really want to ask you, so please answer. Did you code your program early in the business? If someone wants to make software, but he doesn't have any money and no programmer friends around, what do you think of the attitude to learn programming until he has a partner(programmar) or hire a staff member? I am building my own app while learning the program, which is very fun, but also very laborious and time consuming. I wonder if I am doing well right now. Would it be better to get a programmer partner?
Thank you Alex for this video. This is the clarity entrepreneurs need. Instead reacting to everything that happens in the economy good or bad. I am embarking on more of minimalist lifestyle in my business and personal life to have better focus and output. Thank you again.
In recesion you try to develop more your self and your company. Effective and flawless mashine. Also looking for new opportunities. And doing big steps.
I've been following you for quite some time now. And I have to say, I appreciate who you are and the direction you've taken. Thanks for another fantastic post. Stay healthy, my friend.
Another great video!!! Alex, right now what you are doing is the best thing you can do for your business. Your speach reminds me Gary Vee and this is what really works. Sometimes is not good to motivate people, because when they are motivated, they get lazy...lol... So it is good idea to irritate people, because when people are irritated, they get so pissed that they start doing something and that is when magic happen...ha ha ha... I am going to make series of IRRITATION SERIES videos soon... in these times it is the best think what we can do... right? AMEN
Hi very good video i have given a big thumbs up, just wanted to make a correction 12:40mins the comment "the time to invest is when blood is running in the streets" was said by "Baron Nathan De Rothchild" after he made a ton of money after the battle Of Waterloo where Napoleon was defeated by the British.......
Iv only watched a few of your videos one about motivation etc were you reminded me of my C.C in the Military and now this video were you come across as in you dont leave a man behind as in your staff are important to you and you would take a hit for them rather than let them go. I have to ask were you ever in the Military as you have that kind of mind set ? I can see though the many fakes on youtube easy and id never buy their courses etc but you Sir impress me beyond belief. Im really thinking your a vet as you always think very logically as well. Someone on here let me know if hes a vet or not as it will bug me :) .

AGREED!
Grant Cardone is allegedly in BIG FINANCIAL TROUBLE he just 10X:ed the problems for his employees and investors 🤦🏾♂️ He axed 44 people without notice and handed them notices telling them if they have any issues with this take it up with his lawyers after that ordeal he then releases a TH-cam video talking about how he wants to re employ them after the recession is over
My question is who in their right mind would wanna come back to an organization like that bearing in mind most of his employees probably have cash tied up in Cardone capital which they can’t get out of because of the 10 year no negotiation contract for accredited and unaccredited investors and he is still buying real estate , the guy must be over leveraged... that means he has a 1 Billion dollar debt to take care of when vacancies are happening from his properties that he probably never could predict and he claims that they are recession proof from what I have seen it’s middle class multi family apartments which means people lose jobs and move out to cheaper places 🤷🏾♂️a
That 10x joke made me chuckle. Thanks for making this example, this helped me get a stronger understanding in this vid.
Woow
Don't take it the bad way, but I think that being so focused on somebody else will only detriment your ability to grow financially and personally
All you did was regurgitate everything "Meet Kevin " Said. literally word for word. At least give him the credit

Grant Cardone's personal recession is the fact that he won't ever be able to 10x Becker's wokeness.
No level of wokeness is still wokeness
Wolf...wolf
Grant Cardone😂 that guy is a joke! Belford owned his sorry Scientologist ass.
Alex Becker has such great levels of wokeness that gurus listen to him instead of him listening to the gurus
Best part is, that is true. You can see lots of youtubers selling something mentioning alex.
You stood at the desk months longer than imagined. great pivot timing for you and your brands.... just before the crash.
great work !
While watching this I thought too, that this man is a wizard!
This might be the best video I've seen in 2020 so far...very insightful, honest and felt like I just learned so much in such a short time. Thanks, Alex!
So spot on. Foundation needs to be solid. This is the best time to reflect and take new inspired action. Thanks for the rant, always worth the watch.
The key is to keep your debt very low. If at all. People that go into debt for consumption items really pay a price. Because once the Slowdown comes the debt doesn't get smaller it just becomes harder to pay.
Wokeness > dopamine addiction
Dopamine only brings suffering what goes up must go down

Only way to survive through recession is having good CASH FLOW. Cash is well and truly king for business and even personal finance.
