What advice would YOU share for your younger self? Comment below!
The opinion of others are none of your business.
do your best...and hope for the best
Get into spirituality and know yourself the sooner you can. Listen to people who have gone all the way and found peace.
Stop being so boy-crazy and focus on substantive issues ! LOL 😆
Don’t get married too young. Wait until you’ve experienced life for a few years and know yourself better and what you want. As a woman, first be independent so you don’t have to depend on someone else to take care of you. And then marry for love and not because of what others expect of you.
I have no fear of being bored in retirement. I have too many interests. Work gets in the way of living life. I am 59 and ready to retire but finances keep me employed. Full retirement is 67 and I fear I have to work until then. I'm also very happy to be single. I gave all that up years ago. No regrets. i have inner peace.
You have a wonderful life. Please miracles be around for you.
well said
Instead of "don't get married" I think I would say "be extremely careful about who you are going to spend the rest of your life with, and don't get married because you have a preconceived notion that you "should" be married at a certain age."
Yea I like travel health a home simple
Or simply don't get married if you don't want to, instead of being pressured into it.
A person can be very careful about whom they marry. People can as well as DO change with time. Getting married is a huge gamble on your life, your health & overall quality of life.
Having married once, he beat me ONE time, I never gave him a chance to do it again. The day the divorce was finalized was a day when I felt that I got a brand-new lease on life.
So much happier single, living alone with a loyal dog. Seriously doubt I will ever date or marry again. It's too much risk.
Nah, skip married,
Don't get married, marriage is a feudal institution
"Know thyself" and make decisions accordingly. Not everyone needs to be married, partnered or become parents. Know what fits for you and dare to follow that path, even if it is very different from most other people.

True indeed!
Psychedelics are just an exceptional mental health breakthrough. It's quite fascinating how effective they are against depression and anxiety. Saved my life.
Can you help with the reliable source I would really appreciate it. Many people talk about mushrooms and psychedelics but nobody talks about where to get them. Very hard to get a reliable source here in Australia. Really need!
Yes, Steve_porassss. I have the same experience with anxiety, depression, PTSD and addiction and Mushrooms definitely made a huge huge difference to why am clean today.
I wish they were readily available in my place.
Microdosing was my next plan of care for my husband. He is 59 & has so many mental health issues plus probable CTE & a TBI that left him in a coma 8 days. It's too late now I had to get a TPO as he's 6'6 300+ pound homicidal maniac.
He's constantly talking about killing someone.
He's violent. Anyone reading this
Familiar w/ BPD know if it is common for an obsession with violence.
Is he on instagram?
Yes he is Steve_porassss
I'm favoured, $22K every week! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America...
As a beginner what do I need to do? How can I invest, on which platform? If you know any please share.
Investing in crypto/forex is a good idea,
a good trading system would put you
through many days of success.

Same, I met Mrs Anna Davis last
year for the first time at a conference in
Manchester, after then my family
changed for good. God bless Mrs Anna
YES!!! That's exactly her name (Mrs Anna ) so many people have
recommended highly about her and am
just starting with her 😊 from United States
"96 and a half"...wow they do say you go back to being like a child in old age
Well, 6 months is a big deal when you're that age. I don't have a problem with it. You're halfway to the next birthday.
Oh the poor lady who just lost her husband seems very sad. I wish I could give her a big hug 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
in our times not getting married is socially accepted,you can always live with your mate without the restraints and obligation of marriage,or sometimes living together is like marriage.Our modern society allows you to have children out of the wedlock,so its a matter of choice.I would rather advise marry someone who makes you happy,not someone who makes you more popular,rich etc...
Being married involves more than just restraints. It also gives you rights.
But divorcee is the fast track to wealth if you're a woman.
Do get married and have kids young. Ive seen these types of families. Broken half assed relationships.
@@Mexicobeanpole absolutely,there is nothing happier than being in a loving,healthy marriage that allows and fulfills both partners' rights
Choose your wife or husband very very carefully! Do what you love.
They all cheated on each other, trust me. Some of them found out and some didn't.
I love your videos. They are always so enlightening. Thank you ❤
I'm favoured financially, Thank you Jesus $32,000 weekly profit regardless of how bad it gets on the economy.

I'm glad to write her tay I do hope she will help handle my paycheck properly☺️☺️☺️
Find a spiritual practice. Be peaceful.
Savor life - health, relationships, food, seasons, beauty, growth, memories ❤
I'm only 20 years into my marriage, but its hands down the best and most joyful thing that ever happened to me. My wife is amazing and I work hard to try and be a good husband to her. Some find the right person and are meant to be married. Some are most definitely not meant to be married. My parents were married 4x each... I can't even remotely compare my relationship to any of theirs.
To each their own. Marriage and children is not for everyone. Im not married, 54 y.o, no kids and I have no regrets.
So inspiring, thank you so much, this reminds me of living a fulfilling life for myself, now I have to just enjoy myself more rather than worrying about the stuff I can't control
My thoughts are the same 😊
@@Melly16yr10 cheers 🥂
Is it me or do you always find the fittest 70+ people to interview? lol. The people that I know in their 70s or 80s can barely move nor have the capacity for deep conversations.
Very simple: he finds them in the park, where only the fittest still go. 😛 Saying this as a joke, but it would actually make sense!
"The don't get married" is good advice for women! Especially in the current generation where dating is a nightmare! Nothing is more peaceful than being single, making money and in return, just living, enjoying life and traveling.
After my marriage to a cheater, I'm happy to be single since 2012. Best life, no more heartache 💔. Enjoying my military retirement in my 50
Why wouldn't this also apply to men?
I was the last of my sibling and friend group to get married in the 80s. I kissed some frogs first unfortunately.
We have had over 40 beautiful years together. The best thing we both ever did.
I retired at 62. My husband was 71. We were healthy and wanted the freedom to do whatever we wanted and still be able to enjoy it!!
Amazing interviews! Thank you for giving a voice to our elders. They have a lot of wisdom to share that is otherwise lost. They have their own challenges that we know nothing about. I cannot imagine being the last one alive of my friend group and having to bury all of my friends. My friend's dad is 88 yo and is going through this right now. Life is a very weird rollercoaster.
I feel more context is needed from the woman in white who says don't get married. Clearly she married too early and regretted it. But then she says she is happy for her married children.
I agree. It's possible she didn't fully heal or get closure from her divorce. Perhaps she's seen the same issue in marriages of her friends. I've been married almost 14 years now and I also tell people don't get married if they ask me. Not that I don't believe in marriage but you have to really want to be married in this day and age. It was never my desire to get married but my husband is a nice guy but if I had to do it all over again, I would not get married again.
@@red_edj How does your husband feel about that sentiment?
Could you elaborate as to why you wouldn't do it again? To the point you're advising against it? Is it lack of true independence ? Or you're expected to do all the cooking and cleaning?
@michaelstanziale8556 I have always been very candid with my husband. We were friends years before we were married, so he knew that I wasn't really seeking marriage. He knows that I love him dearly but there are hard lines that cannot be crossed or I will leave (i.e. cheating).
@@red_edj I'll be honest, it just seems tough to be married to someone who - in retrospect - would not have gone through with the marriage
Hit 250k today. Appreciate you for all the knowledge and nuggets you had thrown my way over the last months. Started with 24k in April 2024..
I would really love to know how much work you did put in to get to this stage
I will be forever grateful to you, you changed my whole life and I will continue to preach on your behalf for the whole world to hear that you saved me from huge financial debt with just a small Investment, thank you Jihan Wu you're such a life saver
As a beginner in this, it’s essential for you to have a mentor to keep you accountable.
Jihan Wu is also my trade analyst, he has guided me to identify key market trends, pinpointed strategic entry points, and provided risk assessments, ensuring my trades decisions align with market dynamics for optimal returns.
Same, I operate a wide- range of Investments with help from My Financial Adviser. My advice is to get a professional who will help you, plan and enhance your management skills. For the record, working with Jihan Wu has been an amazing experience.
I'm favoured, $30K every week! I can now give back to the locals in my community and also support God's work and the church. God bless America,, all thanks to this same Jihan Wu.
Getting married in the 60's was waay different than now.
Sprout, The 96-year-old was probably a survivor of the camps-you should have questioned her more, also the others-you should ask what they did for a living.
Loved the interview with the 96year old
when you are growing old you're getting wise and know the reality of this world, these videos can give young generations those life experiences earlier before they doing something wrong.❤
That's what I was looking for.
Don't get married enjoy your life ❤
Thanks Sprouht🎉
Getting married saved my life on many different levels. Stay Uncommon!
How so?
Maybe because you needed a saviour?
You don't need to get married to save your life 😒😒😒
@Darima2 Met a great woman when I hit rock bottom and depression and being with her made me want to be better and give her better. So I went on an 8 year self-improvement rollercoaster, and I've lost 50kg and 7x my salary and much more.
@orianam9835 exactly that she is my angel, and God sent her to save me.
We are all going to die...There is no way of escape...Money, trips, even family and a wonderful spouse will eventually end and then you too will die. I know many of us don't think they will die but, trust me you will. Therefore, know you will face God Almighty who gave you life. His Son Jesus is Life and in Him is Eternal Life.
Know that there is forgiveness for your sin, for all have sinned and fall short of the Glory of God. Repent and recieve The Gospel of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of sins.
There is more to life than what even these people in this video are saying.
They are sinners just like you and me. God's forgiveness is what we need the most. Amen.
I can’t believe that woman was 75 she looks like 50s
I wouldn't exactly say 50s. She was minded by her husband I think.
The man who is 82 looks like 55
Are you ok ? She looks 83.
So much wisdom & life lessons from these elderly guests....while young, you are involved in a rat race with everyone else, wasting most of the time in pursuit of money...I suppose out of necessity. Do things you love while you still have health...relish beautiful flowers, enjoy the nature & bird songs etc...little beautiful things in life we often ignore. Even in your 20's life will pass you by quickly so make the best of your time while you're on this earth.
I loved the "optimist", amazing how he deals with circumstances and the 96 years old lady, she cares for the humanity.
this is exactly what i would say to my younger self. I am 60 yo and i found so much peace and restoration in solitude that it is unthinkable for me to share my space with someone else. One would need to compromise her needs in a major way in order to live with someone else. I regret my 35 yo marriage. I think some people who are more private , more introverted and need more alone time to restore, feel much much better having lots of space in their relationships. I prefer pets, nature and god to humans. The level of compromise needed to live in a relationships is enormous and puts a toll on one's soul and body.
Lady never healed from her divorce
OR she realizes in hindsight that marriage was a mistake. Not everyone is meant to be coupled.
Speaking from a woman’s perspective, I think it’s important to know, as best as you can, whether you should or should not get married and have children. Sure, you can’t tell the future, who you’ll be and what you’ll want later and there are positives and negatives to marriage and being single, through different phases of life. But, I’ve seen women regret having children. They don’t want to raise them. Often, they end up raising them alone, as a single mother. But, it becomes a burden for them, because they’ll have to work, too. Then, they try to push off raising the child on someone else. They even dislike or hate the child and may become a narcissistic parent, seeking to ruin the child’s life, for being born and ruining theirs.
That was the type of mother I had. Although it is said that narcissism begins at birth and is nature/nurture, I think it’s quite likely her narcissistic behavior was acquired over the course of her life. She was smart, beautiful, talented, worked hard to get her Masters, while being a single parent and had lots of potential. However, the whole marriage/children path diluted what she wanted from her life and she finally remarried again, in her early 40s. She became angrier and insidiously enraged, over the course of her life. She may have felt that, even her 3rd marriage, was the result of already having children, although we were in our mid to late teens by then. But, she was possibly focused on the start of all of her problems. That, had things been different, she’d have achieved her goals. While the story of the narcissist is often, “I could’ve been, if…”, sometimes, that may actually be true.
But, I’ve not only seen this, with my mother. I am experiencing it, with a new neighbor, who lives with her mother and child. The husband lives overseas. Even with the grandmother home all day, they want me to look after the child, when I’m not at work. I don’t, because their family issues are not mine. But, I get the stress of raising a child. As a woman who’s never married, nor had children, I do know that, even with the personal strains I’ve had over the course of my life that, while having a child might’ve made things easier through some phases, they may have made it terribly difficult, through others.
Don't get married. I'm the fifth sibling, and that's the advise of my four older siblings who got married and divorced. That's why I'm not married.
Thank you for creating this wonderful channel. I loved all the real-life advice from these lovely seniors. God bless you all. For me, I really love animals and nature. Thank God for providing me good health, nice home and lovely environment. Again God bless all of you.
3:30 i love this lady's advice. don't feel sorry for yourself and utilize what you've gone through, it has helped you become who you are. bring the best in yourself + be in nature to cure.
“The Second World War. In Europe.”
She meant she lived in Europe during it
We all have different views about life...
I’m 36. I’m fairly successful, have done some globe trotting, and am blessed to have some wonderful friends in my life.
Marrying my partner was the best thing I ever did. It lead to us having my son. If my marriage ever fails, ok, but I will always have my boy ❤
Man I’m just perusing through the comments in disgust of people saying, “yea don’t get married”. Like what else are you gonna do? Work, drink, watch Netflix and be lonely most of the time? Cheers on you mate for being a real one.
@@MadMax2069. Thanks man, appreciate that.
OUR son, not "my son".
Happy for you, but biologically you don’t need to be married to have a child. Marriage is a choice about intention
@@MadMax2069.what else can one do when you are rejected by society and will never be able to form family due to traumas and anxiety?
Really thanks to your videos.
That 75 year old lady who lost her husband could pass for a 55 year old.
2:40 the person who says "dont get married" says love is respect.
Many people define love as respect from my interviews
I'm 75.
Don't procrastinate, work hard while you're young. Age happens really fast.
what does it feel like to be 75?
Follow God, not man.
If you want peace, joy and order in your life, this is what you do >> Love God (Yahweh) with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. If you love God, you will obey His commandments.
Nonsense. Religion works for some, but far more often it leads to suffering, oppression and self-righteousness. No one needs religion to be a good and happy person.
96 and a half!
And she seems really lucid!
I would try and be less combative with those close to me. Find yourself as early as possible in life, shake of the shackles your parents placed on you. Get counselling earlier in life. Hopefully realise you don't have forever to attain your dreams. Value your loved ones before they go as you never know how suddenly that could happen. Expand my family at any cost so not lonely as I find myself heading now
Don't get married!
Why? Just imagine being alone whole life?
It's better to be alone than being miserable.
Don’t marry the wrong person.
It's good advice for women. Men benefit disproportionately from marriage, so it's a good deal for them. Unmarried women and married men are usually happier than their peers.
@@hidoom4239 it depends on the person not gender.
Interesting insight. The 75 year old lady was very attractive for her age, her deceased husband was a lucky man :)
I like the word "seniors"....
Great interviews!.. I've enjoyed watching your channel and hearing what people have to say.
wonderful thank you
Another amazing compilation of sage advice. Adore your channel. ❤
This doesn’t help. They’re all personalized experiences.
Will I guess your just a negative person after all
Love it. Thanks.❤❤❤❤
The second woman looked pretty good for 75
Beautiful People ….
I took away, it is good to have also younger friends, it is ok I am not married, enjoy the life I have now and nature, do what I really want
They all look great!!
love your new video
Westmount Park is my happy place.
Marriage these days changes people
Don't get married .... says the person who had a bad experience in marriage. That does not apply to everyone. So, bad advice in general
Or maybe she realized in hindsight that marriage was a mistake and that she never should have done it. The desire to marry also doesn't apply to everyone.
This video is very good
I am 36 I will never marry I am so happy with my own hobbies and life😊😊ladies are so greedy and meaningless these days
Why can't you just keep it to sharing? Why this commercialising? Are you giving away the money or living from it?
Love these. Videos.thank you❤
Thank you for watching!
❤Thanxxxx
Canada must be doing something right. In America, you don't normally see that many older people out in nature and being active.
...marriage is an outdated, ridiculous tradition, especially in the U.S. if you're the higher wage earner or more 'successful'...man or woman! 😅
Don’t get married.Dont work too long and have hobbies.Not getting married and retired at 44.Just traveling around the world and enjoying life.Thanks for the advice
I was with my wife 10 years before we married and life was good, family pressures people into getting married and now I’m in a sexless marriage with a invisible wall in the middle of the bed, life is fucked
Your channel Provides Next Level of Wisdom.Thanks
Single women live longer; Married men live longer. Divorces are expensive. Live together instead. Agree with doing things when young such as traveling while healthy and strong.
2:33" Be careful who you pick to spend the rest of your life with "
The lady in blue, the second one who is 75 looks pretty good, she looks very yong and beautiful being 75
I would love a video about money - how important is it? That is the thing that makes life difficult for me, and I'm sure many other others in this cost of living crisis.
My dear friends love is the only thing worth living for, Don't forget it and be loyal.
Unless you’re financially and emotionally intelligent enough to select a partner with no worries, don’t get married. Married in my early 20’s to an abuser unknowingly and suffered so much… learned a lot the hard way and not enough time to heal to even try starting a family again. All for love, just the risks are higher than you think so be selective. To women I say have a career first and don’t wait for yours supporting his.
Don't get married!! Divorced man commenting here!!!!

I love these people they have such a great outlook.. God bless them
Enjoy nature and live happy
I really love these videos it is so good to get wise advice from the older generation as a woman who is ageing I find these videos helpful.
I love how complex and varied people’s life reviews are ❤
Awww, these guys are just lovely!!❤
no one mention about saving money & investment .
Never get married but get a vasectomy at age 18.
Its about kindness and being geez
May i know where is this park?
That’s why I like this channels! Priceless wisdom 🎉
Rule #1: You have to get to know yourself. Otherwise you will live for other people and not to fulfill your own goals...because you won't really know what they are. Self discovery/introspection is underrated.
great advice, how old are you?
I am 40, and this is what I think. Age does not decide if a person is wise or novice. I have seen several older people who are very immature and still making big mistakes, and many younger people who are spiritually and mentally wiser.
In the video, it is also interesting to note how one person says, I am 85 and life sucks and another says I am 85 and life is beautiful. It is all about how you see it.
What does it feel like to be 40?
Marriage is good
Great video !
Get married .
thank you❤
