Mike despite froga and toads can't produce warts, some of tads. Usually some males of toads produce a milky substance from their body and can be really toxic to humans and poison dogs if there was one in there drinking plate that water needs to be throw and clean it
Damned impressive that you invited people to contact you so that you could help them through a rough point in their life. You're a better man than I am. Thank You.
It’s not always as easy as just asking. My daughter HAS health insurance. We’ve been looking for 3 years for a pediatric provider that accepts it. The places that have free services will not serve someone that has insurance. Until she is 18 and no longer has my medical insurance she is stuck. Medical in the United States is horrendous. This is no longer a 1st world country.
Mike like a wise woman once said in a ministry i was involved in when I was younger..this lady said it takes 5 minutes to say something that'll ruin someones life and push them but it takes 5 mins to speak life to them and also takes 5 mins to save a life and what she meant was choose your words wisely and be a person that lifts people up with kindness and not one that tares them down with mean words ...and the cake quote is actually from a story about a french princess that was written when marie was like 8..and she was actually sympathetic to the poor to a point now her descendant Queen Victoria was more of the monarch with the let them eat cake attitude
When you were talking about sports drinks and recommended drinking milk 🥛 you were spot on. I had an incident where I almost passed out on my way home from somewhere, and only my 14yr old nephew was home. I asked him if he would get me some water or something else to get me back my energy. He brought me a glass of milk 🥛 and I thought, " Oh God, I can't drink this. It's gonna make me sick." Well, not only didn't it make me sick almost instantly, it gave me a huge boost in energy. I told him that I would never doubt him again. He's a very smart young man.
But milk does cause a glycemic reaction which causes your body to store fats so if you have eaten or drinking any type of dairy it may cause you to actually gain weight. It's not the fat in the middle it's the sugar in the milk
I love milk. Something to look into? When I flew first-class, I asked for a glass of milk, the stewardess pointed out that every time one person orders milk in first-class, about 20% of the others will also. She told me this when I asked for a second one, she said this always happens, she saved one for me, otherwise they would have run out.. lol
In the UK, if you die without a Will, relatives can inherit as the next of kin without one, all they need to do, is do the Probate, after proving their relationship and the person's death. However if you are the spouse with a joint account and co ownership of the estate, you can inherit without doing the Probate, but that can cause legal problems, in some cases. The estate only goes to the Crown, either one of two Duchies or the Treasury, if there are no relatives to inherit, but efforts are made to establish that. But a Will does in the end save a lot of problems from occurring. There is a myth in the UK that having no Will, means the Crown takes everything, but that I repeat, only ever occurs after no relatives have been found. In the end whatever country your live in, best to make a Will, plus save for your funeral as well as your retirement.
When discussing the organic myth, you missed an important point: if all agriculture were to convert to organic practices, there would swiftly be a worldwide famine. There are reasons farmers & food-processors pay good money for those “artificial” chemicals- they work.
0:14 been saying for years, "We have the collective knowledge of humankind at our fingertips. Use it!"

Thanks for offering to help those with mental health issues. I could hear the sincerity in your voice. Sometimes just to hear someone say that we are special is uplifting. 💝
Back in 1972 I was 14 and was institutionalized in a private mental hospital in San Francisco for 6 weeks. I was on a children's and adolescents war. I saw children, maybe 5 or 6 years old, who had mental illness -- in some, schizophrenia -- who had been there for years and might be there most of their lives. I'm sure they were on high doses of medication. Therapy may have changed over the years, but not children's neuroses or psychoses.
Thank you so much for adding the myth of suicidal people wanting to die - my boyfriend's brother died by suicide and I've been trying to explain this to him but I think he thinks I'm making it up. I super appreciate your candor about depression and the like. Keep up the good work.
Are you kidding. Of course suicidal people want to die. They want their pain to end or they want something to end so they think that's the only way out. Selfish of them for sure. And yes I have experience and I'm also a psychology major.
@@sheilawiseman6167 As someone who was also a psychology major, lost a sister to suicide, and has survived at least one suicide attempt so far, I can assure you, not all suicidal people want to die. I had my attempt on my 24th birthday. I was terrified the entire time, and when the doctor(s) asked me why I wanted to die, I told them I didn’t, I just wanted all the shit to stop. I also don’t see it as that selfish of a thing (hear me out). My suicide attempt was years before I lost my sister, which I think is why I handled it better than my family. I’d been there. You have to remember that most people who attempt suicide don’t do it on a whim. I had been dealing with severe depression for years - my sister battled it for 8. I had convinced myself that nobody would miss me. Sure they’d be sad, but they’d get over it in like two weeks. Of course, having lost my sister, I know that’s not the case - you never get over it, you just learn to live with it. But moreover, I honestly believed that my loved ones wouldn’t want me to live with that kind of pain, and that if they went through what I was going through, they would understand. That’s one of the reasons I don’t have any anger toward my sister. I miss her every day, and I don’t know how she could think we’d be ok without her, but I completely understand not being able to live with the pain. Even now, I may not welcome death (for the most part), but I’m not afraid of it anymore, I’m just afraid of suffering.
I developed severe depression when I hit puberty. Since I went through menopause several years ago it has gotten much better. Hormones have a large affect on our mental health!!! Pre-teens can definitely have mental health problems!
Toads cant give you warts, tho the cane toad can certainly kill a human, and definitely our beloved pets😢. As for children cant have mental illnesses!!! OMG! As a person who was placed on medication and sent to a psychiatrist from age 5 to 9!!!! My issues were purely inviromental, mostly a mother who didnt want me, she was cold and uncaring, a father who tried to over compensate. Now an adult suffering severe depression and apathy issues. So yeah, who ever spewed that bs, can go f themselves!.
You would have to eat or lick a cane toad to affect a person. I caught one yesterday and had to move it out of my mower path. Mowers aren't friendly to cane toads and make a mess. 😁
This was fun and encouraging; I knew the facts more often than not! I am glad I have learned great research skills, and I often have had to fact-check friends hysterically spreading misinformation, rumors, and incorrect/partial facts. Channels like List25 have helped me get lots of myths cleaned up and let me store factual info too, so yay Mike and List25!
great video mike!! Without you there is no list 25. I was wondering if you would do a list about tattoos? whether it's about actors and actresses with tattoos and how old they were when they first got them. Or the history behind tattoos. Just giving you an idea/suggestion. Because you are very good with this channel and I like how talkative and informative you are. Thank you again for another great video.
Yeah...no...yeah, you DO have to do what the manager tells you. A good manager will work with you as a team and give you the feeling of being equals, but your somewhat loose explanation is at the core of the new "entitled, total lack of accountability" that is so prevalent in today's society. Being manager can be hard because there are times when you have to put your foot down and make moves that are not pleasant for the employee. If it was not necessary, then there would be no managers. Otherwise, excellent, entertaining video!
I was diagnosed with autism when I was 13 or so; up until then, my parents struggled to learn exactly _how_ I was so different and not like other kids my age... I've been on medication almost my whole life, though, from the time I had seizures around age 1.5 to 2... Never had any since then, and only needed seizure medication for a short time; however, I did have ADD tendencies, so I've been put on different meds for that over the years. I still take meds to help me focus, as well as anti-anxiety ones... But since I was diagnosed, I've gotten a lot better help to manage my high-functioning autism... 😊 I have a lot of people in my life who are very supportive, including my parents and late paternal grandmother, so I consider myself very blessed... 🥰
3:30 I don't think the residents of Grindavik Iceland would agree with you about the earthquake leading to cracks in the ground. Love list 25 anyway!! Love Mike too.
I have been watching these videos to fall asleep because Mike's voice is so friendly and comforting but this is the first time I shared this video so fast because people need more of such a pure hearted guy. I doubt mike will ever see this comment but when my mental health is really bad and my mind won't quieten down, these videos help my mind switch off and put me in my little safe place away from the PTSD and anxiety. I even learn things along the way. He's helped at least one person more than he knows!
I never heard the lightning one but emergency personnel that were family told me to never touch someone electrocuted by a hydro wire because the live wire could still be touching them or grounded to them, or if the ground is wet enough you could recieve shock. I wonder if thats true.
I can tell you after working with thousands of preschool children that lice prefer fine and thin hair. I watched kids hug and play with each other and some would get lice while others didn’t.
One of hair dressers told me once that lice doesn't like blond hair...not sure if that is true, but neither of my kids ever got it, no matter how bad is shredding l spreading around the school...
@@Cypresssina it’s not a rule, just an observation. With a room of 25-30 children, the kids that lice liked were usually the squeaky clean thin haired children. I’m glad you never had to deal with that.🙂
I love these lists and mikes commentary is the best. Also what you said about self terminating and mental health…yes. You are never alone. And your life is valuable; you are valuable. Always
I remember in a village I used to live in the local post office was ran by a Chinese family and I believe they used to make their own fortune cookies and think up little fortunes and sell them for 10p each.
YOU matter, you are important! There is help out there should you want it. You are definitely not a burden and you are not alone! I have that time, I will always try and smile, I see you, others do as well. I promise you, it may feel bad and like nothing else will help or nothing will get better. But trust, it can and will get better. Reach out, make that first step, someone will help to catch you
Thank you for talking about mental health and suicide. And putting the Crisis Line phone number in the video. Also another myth is that if you ask someone if they are thinking of suicide will make the person die by suicide. Asking them will not cause a person to die my suicide. So please ask the question if you are concerned about them.
No. 20 should be about electricity. if you touch someone that is getting shocked by an electric current, you can get stuck to them and then you both die. Not lightning it's about working with electricity.
I believe you. But my doctor (PCP) literally just last month told me that my coffee just before my appointment with her was raising my blood pressure. 😕
Mike I really have to say that you are one of the sweetest people I’ve ever seen! You’ve a good heart and a caring attitude! Your one person that I would love to have on my Christmas card list! Keep up the good work honey!🙏🏻👍🏻🥰😇🕊! Px
I suffer from mental health and self-harm . Sometimes, I do feel like im better off not being here. My 3 kitty cats keep me here. If I did have them, I won't be here. I don't want to feel the way I do, but I have gone through a lot in my life
You have three good reasons to keep going everyday. I know that depression sucks all the joy and meaning in life, but you made a commitment to your fur babies and you need to honor that. Their lives depend on it. ❤
I have been feeling that after a head injury its very my 2 dogs have saved me more times than I can count please reach out to someone anyone it will get better
@@margaretschear1264 I suffered a TBI in November of 2021. It is literally the worst thing that's ever happened to me and I say that having been orphaned, widowed, and buried a child. I woke up that January almost completely blind and deaf and aphasia had stole my words and Betty White was gone.
Mike, I too, have been homeless. I got back from Iraq. I could not reintegrate. I was messed up. My mother had passed away. Now I make $225k a year. Hard work, a lot of luck, and some really good friends. Feels good.
My District Manager told me the other day that I," didn't have the correct attitude", because I told her that an envelope full of nosale recipes didn't have anything to do with me doing my job, so I just ignore it. When I told her I hadn't had enough coffee that day, she said was usually up at 4am. My alarm normally goes off at 7am. This was 6:30am. Yeah I'm a B**ch when I don't get enough sleep.
I had to use the crisis line to get me through a nasty panic attack once. I don’t know what I would’ve done that day if not for that magical three digit number. I was in a hotel room alone in a totally different state from the one I live in, and there was no getting help anywhere else. I know people say to focus on your breathing, and that kind of stuff when you panic, but for someone who’s main symptom is a heart that feels like it’s trying to literally slam through your chest, focusing on any sensations in that region are not good. I have always needed someone to talk me through them. It’s either that or they don’t calm down.
I spend about £3 a day enjoying a cup of coffee in town, whilst sitting and reading a chapter or two of my current book. Lots of people get through a pack of 20 cigarettes a day, costing them about £13. I can live with my coffee expenditure. It would probably cost me almost as much to stay at home and have the heating on for an extra couple of hours LOL.
I love this series but please don't encourage people to blow their money on things like coffee. That was just an example of how many are awful with money. You don't need to go to movie theaters, concerts, or shows of any kind. Smart people hardly eat out. No one needs candy, gum, cigarettes, or the newest tech. That is not an opinion. It's a fact... most people don't understand the difference between need and want.
My brother started to show signs of anxiety and other issues around 2 yrs old. My mom could not get out of his sight 😭 but of course everyone said he was just spoiled.
Sorry, but lice do Not like dirty hair. My children all had hair lice except one who didn't wash their hair and when they did it was on Friday after school. Their hair was a little dirt by Monday.
We drink and eat we are a world of consumers makeing the a few people very rich coffee is just one thing we don't need . . .. but we must spend spend spend 😂
I lived in new port richey for a while and would go to the beach to watch the sunset. As it goes over the gulf the last color you see is green. I now live in west texas now. You should see the sun come up over a mountain. You will never forget it.
Even if things like laptops lead to less fertility in males that is not a bad thing. We have way too many people on the planet and most of them shouldn't be breeding
Earthquakes can cause the soil to become unstable and liquefy. Look at the case of the famous pirate Hangout Island Port Royal. It had an earthquake that pretty much dissolved the land and turned it into a swamp that engulfed all of the major buildings of the town.
Queen Victoria, according to her last surviving granddaughter, claimed that she never said "We are not amused." (It was already a myth during her reign).
When I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Romania during our training a local told one of my group mates that sitting on cold concrete would make her infertile.
The other day I was in a very bad place mentally I didn't feel like I was important enough to be here, I texted my boyfriend and he came right away. I cried on his shoulder for over an hour, I have never had anyone make me feel more loved and important than he did. Having someone that truly cares about you makes all the difference in the world.
@@alysiareid6659 I've never seen a skinny calf either as a matter of fact, they seen to rapidly grow to cow size. If you've worked with cows you know the average person can't pick out the yearlings from the other cows. Whales are also bulls, cows and calves by designation and some gain in excess of 200-250lbs per day, drinking nothing but milk. that is approximately ten pounds per hour.
if someone is suicidal usually they wont tell anybody they just do it, most of the time suicidal people just use the threat of suicide to get attention or someone to listen
When I was a teemager, I was deeply depressed and talked about suicide. My father, who was the cause of my depression, said people who talk about suicide don't do it. They're just looking for attention. ( Well, why not just give them attention? That sounds cheaply enough.) 😮My father talked about commuting suicide for months and even circled the date on the calendar, March 3rd, and then he did it on that day. So much for that.
@@list25 lost my job 3 months ago, my mental heath is going. i was a nice guy and helped who i could but got walked over. my friends are all crack heads...no gifts for christmas. and no food, and 2 months behind on rent.never seen my kid in years..and my own govement will not help or do anything..life sucks and it is getting worse by the day..i have been to hospitals to talk but no one wants to listen, they just want to give pills, i dont want pills, i just want to smile and be happy. i tired every thing i can think off. i am not a crack head or do drugs, i use to be a home care worker but quit cause other workers were drinking and doing drugs and the owner didnt care, i have a record from15 years ago and no place wants to hire me..i am worn out.. i just dont know what to do anymore my friend..i have give life the best i can give but life dont want to be nice to me...
It happens. I was homeless for two years. You're not alone. Call the hotline, they'll be better equipped to help but definitely keep trying to get a job. Just cause you didn't get hired today doesn't mean you won't tomorrow. You've got this.
I lived in a car infested with bedbugs for year and a half in Hawaii. SMH. Still here. 20 years. No longer. Coconut water. ❤️ I am sorry, but local produce; at least where we live, is the best in the world. That’s not even a question. We have the most important 13 differential climates in the entire world.
Vegetarian now, but back in the day Sweet and Sour chicken was my end all to beat all. (Almond Boneless chicken was also good.) Had many different takes on S&S chicken; some better than others, but ALL were good!
I can’t believe that you actually promoted low fat or skim milk. So much sugar in milk. Adults don’t need milk. Calcium yes. Vitamin D yes. Most Asian people are Lactose intolerant. You know SUGAR
Alright. Please stop. I'm losing faith in this channel. Clearly you don't know your facts and read the headlines of a study without reading the study. Caffeine will *absolutely* raise your blood pressure way more than alcohol. It depends on the amount consumed. Only when you consume large amounts of alcohol and your body goes into shock and is stressed will it raise blood pressure. Eat enough food and it can raise blood pressure. Move too fast for a few seconds and it can raise blood pressure. It depends on *everything*. A single cup of coffee won't affect blood pressure. That is what you probably read. Actually, it has been recommended to consume small amounts of alcohol for anxiety/blood pressure problems. Nowadays doctor's don't want to prescribe ibuprofen for a headache because it might upset your stomach. Saying a beer is worse for you than a cup of coffee is ignorant and ill informed. Neither will hurt you at all. And neither is worse for you. Everything in moderation. You don't have to do anything you are told. Actually, the only thing you *have to* do with no choice is die. And no, you don't *have to* pay taxes. Al Capone is proof of that. He got caught though Solar panels? For REAL? Yeah I've lost all faith... I'm not gonna even try to argue or talk sense into you
I Loss a good friend to suicide in our senior year. I never understood why. I figured if you're that low the only way to go is up. I lost my mother when I was 10 so I had to grow up fast. Maybe that's why I couldn't understand. Then, I lost my daughter, and I understood. And 2 years later I lost my son. After 24 yrs. of marriage, I Lost my husband he was 54. and now on April 7, 2024, I lost Liz my last remaining child my heart to cancer, she was 46. yeah, I completely understand.
8:35 i ALWAYS choose sugar free Gatorade or the like, or I won’t drink it. That being said, I notice a significant difference in endurance when I use Gatorade over plain water, and is why I started bringing Gatorade to the gym in the first place. Milk during a workout would be far too heavy. Especially if I’m drinking enough to replace the liquids I’ve lost. I’d be quicker to throw up if I’m downing milk while working out.
If you are suicidal, please remember that the world is a better place with you in it. It may be rough today, but tomorrow is another day. My mom would tell you, the storms of today bring the beautiful rainbow of tomorrow. She and I found my sister who had chosen to check out early. 25 years later, devastation is still present today. You are beautiful. You are beloved. You are an amazing person. You are enough. ❤
That first one is garbage! If you spend money like this: (and I think everyone does) "oh that's not expensive" without thinking about the frequency of those types of purchases, you could be losing thousands of dollars a year. THOUSANDS! that pays bills, invests, etc. So very much so, the little things take a bite! Be wise with your money at all times, not just the easy things like big purchases.
6:10 so why is my blood pressure higher in the morning after coffee and lower in the evening when I’m drinking alcohol? I can be 160/90 in the morning but 100/60 in the evening. My blood pressure is always and I mean always lower when consuming alcohol. My doctors have said I should cut back on coffee in the morning to curb my blood pressure. I think your facts are misguided. Statistics are adjustable to what you want them to say.
Coffee and finance: It all depends on who you have it with! Cats/milk: DO NOT feed adult cats milk; most are genetically lactose-intolerant. Unless you want running cat s@@t. Suicide hotline: I get no respect! I called, but they put me on hold....Lice: Humans are the only mammals with TWO kinds of lice: Head lice and body lice are different on humans.

But milk does cause a glycemic reaction which causes your body to store fats so if you have eaten or drinking any type of dairy it may cause you to actually gain weight. It's not the fat in the middle it's the sugar in the milk
Milk and dairy products also contain collagen which prevents wrinkles.

If you have heat stroke or heat exhaustion water does not rehydrate you as well as Gatorade. Water doesn’t have the sodium in it that you need.

My issues were purely inviromental, mostly a mother who didnt want me, she was cold and uncaring, a father who tried to over compensate. Now an adult suffering severe depression and apathy issues. So yeah, who ever spewed that bs, can go f themselves!.
You would have to eat or lick a cane toad to affect a person. I caught one yesterday and had to move it out of my mower path. Mowers aren't friendly to cane toads and make a mess. 😁
This was fun and encouraging; I knew the facts more often than not! I am glad I have learned great research skills, and I often have had to fact-check friends hysterically spreading misinformation, rumors, and incorrect/partial facts.
Channels like List25 have helped me get lots of myths cleaned up and let me store factual info too, so yay Mike and List25!
great video mike!! Without you there is no list 25. I was wondering if you would do a list about tattoos? whether it's about actors and actresses with tattoos and how old they were when they first got them. Or the history behind tattoos. Just giving you an idea/suggestion. Because you are very good with this channel and I like how talkative and informative you are. Thank you again for another great video.
13 people agree with my comment so far.
Low-fat/fat-free products often cause MORE weight gain because they replace the fat (healthy and unhealthy) with sugar for flavor.
Mike,I knew I loved you for a reason! I have Mickey Mouse everywhere on everything😄❤😘
Yeah...no...yeah, you DO have to do what the manager tells you. A good manager will work with you as a team and give you the feeling of being equals, but your somewhat loose explanation is at the core of the new "entitled, total lack of accountability" that is so prevalent in today's society. Being manager can be hard because there are times when you have to put your foot down and make moves that are not pleasant for the employee. If it was not necessary, then there would be no managers. Otherwise, excellent, entertaining video!
I was diagnosed with autism when I was 13 or so; up until then, my parents struggled to learn exactly _how_ I was so different and not like other kids my age... I've been on medication almost my whole life, though, from the time I had seizures around age 1.5 to 2... Never had any since then, and only needed seizure medication for a short time; however, I did have ADD tendencies, so I've been put on different meds for that over the years. I still take meds to help me focus, as well as anti-anxiety ones... But since I was diagnosed, I've gotten a lot better help to manage my high-functioning autism... 😊 I have a lot of people in my life who are very supportive, including my parents and late paternal grandmother, so I consider myself very blessed... 🥰
Bless you my friend. I am epileptic so I understand trouble with focus, panic and anxiety. I wish you all the happiness in this world. Take care 🥰
You are a very kind person. 😊 Thank you.
3:30 I don't think the residents of Grindavik Iceland would agree with you about the earthquake leading to cracks in the ground.
Love list 25 anyway!! Love Mike too.
I have been watching these videos to fall asleep because Mike's voice is so friendly and comforting but this is the first time I shared this video so fast because people need more of such a pure hearted guy.
I doubt mike will ever see this comment but when my mental health is really bad and my mind won't quieten down, these videos help my mind switch off and put me in my little safe place away from the PTSD and anxiety. I even learn things along the way. He's helped at least one person more than he knows!
You are a really good person Mike...in my experiences over the past decade, this is a true rarity. May God bless you for being a truly caring person.
Wow, thank you
I never heard the lightning one but emergency personnel that were family told me to never touch someone electrocuted by a hydro wire because the live wire could still be touching them or grounded to them, or if the ground is wet enough you could recieve shock. I wonder if thats true.
I can tell you after working with thousands of preschool children that lice prefer fine and thin hair. I watched kids hug and play with each other and some would get lice while others didn’t.
One of hair dressers told me once that lice doesn't like blond hair...not sure if that is true, but neither of my kids ever got it, no matter how bad is shredding l spreading around the school...
I have baby fine hair and I never had lice. Maybe I just got lucky lol
@@Cypresssina it’s not a rule, just an observation. With a room of 25-30 children, the kids that lice liked were usually the squeaky clean thin haired children. I’m glad you never had to deal with that.🙂
I love these lists and mikes commentary is the best. Also what you said about self terminating and mental health…yes. You are never alone. And your life is valuable; you are valuable. Always
The sun is actually green. Measurements of wavelengths have confirmed this
Um, no... That's an astronomical impossibility... Go check out Cool Worlds; he has a vid on why that's impossible, green stars, that is...
Absolutely sir you are correct when measuring the sun light it is infact green. 😊😊😊
I remember in a village I used to live in the local post office was ran by a Chinese family and I believe they used to make their own fortune cookies and think up little fortunes and sell them for 10p each.
YOU matter, you are important!
There is help out there should you want it.
You are definitely not a burden and you are not alone!
I have that time, I will always try and smile, I see you, others do as well.
I promise you, it may feel bad and like nothing else will help or nothing will get better.
But trust, it can and will get better.
Reach out, make that first step, someone will help to catch you
Thank you for talking about mental health and suicide. And putting the Crisis Line phone number in the video. Also another myth is that if you ask someone if they are thinking of suicide will make the person die by suicide. Asking them will not cause a person to die my suicide. So please ask the question if you are concerned about them.
I love this list ❤. I knew most of them were wrong, but it was awesome hearing someone else say it. I hope you are having a great week, Mike. 😅😊❤😊
you Mike, are my favourite Utuber!!! Honest, entertaining, heartfelt, and just plain fun. And, of course, I learn something evertime I watch.
No. 20 should be about electricity. if you touch someone that is getting shocked by an electric current, you can get stuck to them and then you both die. Not lightning it's about working with electricity.
Happy Hanukkah, Mike. I carry a knife to protect me from the evil people here on earth😁. Good one 👍✌️
The only thing I know is that Will can give you money, Bill would necessarily take it. LOL
You're a very good person, Mike!
I believe you. But my doctor (PCP) literally just last month told me that my coffee just before my appointment with her was raising my blood pressure. 😕
Yeah it isn't good for you and a waste of money. Sometimes he's wrong
Much love for offering an ear to those that need one! Makes me appreciate this channel even more than before
Thank you for what you do Mike, you have no idea how much you have gotten me through ❤.
Mike I really have to say that you are one of the sweetest people I’ve ever seen! You’ve a good heart and a caring attitude! Your one person that I would love to have on my Christmas card list! Keep up the good work honey!🙏🏻👍🏻🥰😇🕊! Px
I suffer from mental health and self-harm . Sometimes, I do feel like im better off not being here. My 3 kitty cats keep me here. If I did have them, I won't be here. I don't want to feel the way I do, but I have gone through a lot in my life
Bless your heart!!! I get it, don’t give up!
You have three good reasons to keep going everyday. I know that depression sucks all the joy and meaning in life, but you made a commitment to your fur babies and you need to honor that. Their lives depend on it. ❤
I have been feeling that after a head injury its very my 2 dogs have saved me more times than I can count please reach out to someone anyone it will get better
@@margaretschear1264 I suffered a TBI in November of 2021. It is literally the worst thing that's ever happened to me and I say that having been orphaned, widowed, and buried a child. I woke up that January almost completely blind and deaf and aphasia had stole my words and Betty White was gone.
You are definitely better off here. No matter who you are or where you are there's someone in this world who wants you here!
Mike, I too, have been homeless. I got back from Iraq. I could not reintegrate. I was messed up. My mother had passed away. Now I make $225k a year. Hard work, a lot of luck, and some really good friends. Feels good.
On the coffee one : BS
If you pay $7.00 a day over a 50 year working life versus making it at home for a quarter, that’s $87,750 saved.
My District Manager told me the other day that I," didn't have the correct attitude", because I told her that an envelope full of nosale recipes didn't have anything to do with me doing my job, so I just ignore it. When I told her I hadn't had enough coffee that day, she said was usually up at 4am. My alarm normally goes off at 7am. This was 6:30am. Yeah I'm a B**ch when I don't get enough sleep.
I had to use the crisis line to get me through a nasty panic attack once. I don’t know what I would’ve done that day if not for that magical three digit number. I was in a hotel room alone in a totally different state from the one I live in, and there was no getting help anywhere else. I know people say to focus on your breathing, and that kind of stuff when you panic, but for someone who’s main symptom is a heart that feels like it’s trying to literally slam through your chest, focusing on any sensations in that region are not good. I have always needed someone to talk me through them. It’s either that or they don’t calm down.
I spend about £3 a day enjoying a cup of coffee in town, whilst sitting and reading a chapter or two of my current book. Lots of people get through a pack of 20 cigarettes a day, costing them about £13. I can live with my coffee expenditure. It would probably cost me almost as much to stay at home and have the heating on for an extra couple of hours LOL.
I've always been curious as to why coffee is called a cup of joe in America. Does anyone know?

@@list25 Thanks List25. Very interesting.
I love this series but please don't encourage people to blow their money on things like coffee. That was just an example of how many are awful with money. You don't need to go to movie theaters, concerts, or shows of any kind. Smart people hardly eat out. No one needs candy, gum, cigarettes, or the newest tech. That is not an opinion. It's a fact... most people don't understand the difference between need and want.
Awe I love you Mike! You have such a good heart! ❤️
My brother started to show signs of anxiety and other issues around 2 yrs old. My mom could not get out of his sight 😭 but of course everyone said he was just spoiled.
I've had major depression most of my life. My dogs keep me going.
Japanese normally drink milk after being in the hot springs to help their body.
Sorry, but lice do Not like dirty hair. My children all had hair lice except one who didn't wash their hair and when they did it was on Friday after school. Their hair was a little dirt by Monday.
We drink and eat we are a world of consumers makeing the a few people very rich coffee is just one thing we don't need . . .. but we must spend spend spend 😂
I ❤ you Mike 😊
I lived in new port richey for a while and would go to the beach to watch the sunset. As it goes over the gulf the last color you see is green. I now live in west texas now. You should see the sun come up over a mountain. You will never forget it.
Even if things like laptops lead to less fertility in males that is not a bad thing. We have way too many people on the planet and most of them shouldn't be breeding
Mike you make this world a better place with your life affirming messages,thank you!
Why thank you
It was so nice of you to help mental health good for you 😮
you are part of the minority that can digest dairy products
Hi Mike,
I sent you an email. Sorry if I bothered you.
Kristi
Got it!
Earthquakes can cause the soil to become unstable and liquefy. Look at the case of the famous pirate Hangout Island Port Royal. It had an earthquake that pretty much dissolved the land and turned it into a swamp that engulfed all of the major buildings of the town.
“Please do touch some one who’s been hit by lightning” 😂😂😂😂
Queen Victoria, according to her last surviving granddaughter, claimed that she never said "We are not amused." (It was already a myth during her reign).
When I was a Peace Corps Volunteer in Romania during our training a local told one of my group mates that sitting on cold concrete would make her infertile.
Oh wow serious respect to you Mike for being brave enough to say that
The other day I was in a very bad place mentally I didn't feel like I was important enough to be here, I texted my boyfriend and he came right away. I cried on his shoulder for over an hour, I have never had anyone make me feel more loved and important than he did.
Having someone that truly cares about you makes all the difference in the world.
I love watching your videos. You are so nice! 😊
Thank you so much!!
I've never seen a skinny cow.
They eat grass not milk.
@@alysiareid6659 I've never seen a skinny calf either as a matter of fact, they seen to rapidly grow to cow size. If you've worked with cows you know the average person can't pick out the yearlings from the other cows. Whales are also bulls, cows and calves by designation and some gain in excess of 200-250lbs per day, drinking nothing but milk. that is approximately ten pounds per hour.
aww Mike, you're so so sweet. 💖
if someone is suicidal usually they wont tell anybody they just do it, most of the time suicidal people just use the threat of suicide to get attention or someone to listen
When I was a teemager, I was deeply depressed and talked about suicide. My father, who was the cause of my depression, said people who talk about suicide don't do it. They're just looking for attention. ( Well, why not just give them attention? That sounds cheaply enough.) 😮My father talked about commuting suicide for months and even circled the date on the calendar, March 3rd, and then he did it on that day. So much for that.
@@azcowgal5837 Sorry to hear that!! but i said usually , that means there some do talk about ii but most dont
You really care about your viewers.
I do, and people in general.
i am asking for help..But cant get the help, no one wants to help...Lives are on the line..soon very soon
Talk to me
@@list25 lost my job 3 months ago, my mental heath is going. i was a nice guy and helped who i could but got walked over. my friends are all crack heads...no gifts for christmas. and no food, and 2 months behind on rent.never seen my kid in years..and my own govement will not help or do anything..life sucks and it is getting worse by the day..i have been to hospitals to talk but no one wants to listen, they just want to give pills, i dont want pills, i just want to smile and be happy. i tired every thing i can think off. i am not a crack head or do drugs, i use to be a home care worker but quit cause other workers were drinking and doing drugs and the owner didnt care, i have a record from15 years ago and no place wants to hire me..i am worn out.. i just dont know what to do anymore my friend..i have give life the best i can give but life dont want to be nice to me...
It happens. I was homeless for two years. You're not alone. Call the hotline, they'll be better equipped to help but definitely keep trying to get a job. Just cause you didn't get hired today doesn't mean you won't tomorrow. You've got this.
I lived in a car infested with bedbugs for year and a half in Hawaii. SMH.
Still here. 20 years. No longer. Coconut water. ❤️
I am sorry, but local produce; at least where we live, is the best in the world. That’s not even a question. We have the most important 13 differential climates in the entire world.
Vegetarian now, but back in the day Sweet and Sour chicken was my end all to beat all. (Almond Boneless chicken was also good.)
Had many different takes on S&S chicken; some better than others, but ALL were good!
I can’t believe that you actually promoted low fat or skim milk. So much sugar in milk. Adults don’t need milk. Calcium yes. Vitamin D yes. Most Asian people are Lactose intolerant. You know SUGAR
Alright. Please stop. I'm losing faith in this channel. Clearly you don't know your facts and read the headlines of a study without reading the study. Caffeine will *absolutely* raise your blood pressure way more than alcohol. It depends on the amount consumed. Only when you consume large amounts of alcohol and your body goes into shock and is stressed will it raise blood pressure. Eat enough food and it can raise blood pressure. Move too fast for a few seconds and it can raise blood pressure. It depends on *everything*. A single cup of coffee won't affect blood pressure. That is what you probably read. Actually, it has been recommended to consume small amounts of alcohol for anxiety/blood pressure problems. Nowadays doctor's don't want to prescribe ibuprofen for a headache because it might upset your stomach. Saying a beer is worse for you than a cup of coffee is ignorant and ill informed. Neither will hurt you at all. And neither is worse for you. Everything in moderation.
You don't have to do anything you are told. Actually, the only thing you *have to* do with no choice is die. And no, you don't *have to* pay taxes. Al Capone is proof of that. He got caught though
Solar panels? For REAL? Yeah I've lost all faith... I'm not gonna even try to argue or talk sense into you
I Loss a good friend to suicide in our senior year. I never understood why. I figured if you're that low the only way to go is up. I lost my mother when I was 10 so I had to grow up fast. Maybe that's why I couldn't understand. Then, I lost my daughter, and I understood. And 2 years later I lost my son. After 24 yrs. of marriage, I Lost my husband he was 54. and now on April 7, 2024, I lost Liz my last remaining child my heart to cancer, she was 46. yeah, I completely understand.
8:35 i ALWAYS choose sugar free Gatorade or the like, or I won’t drink it. That being said, I notice a significant difference in endurance when I use Gatorade over plain water, and is why I started bringing Gatorade to the gym in the first place. Milk during a workout would be far too heavy. Especially if I’m drinking enough to replace the liquids I’ve lost. I’d be quicker to throw up if I’m downing milk while working out.
If you are suicidal, please remember that the world is a better place with you in it. It may be rough today, but tomorrow is another day. My mom would tell you, the storms of today bring the beautiful rainbow of tomorrow. She and I found my sister who had chosen to check out early. 25 years later, devastation is still present today.
You are beautiful.
You are beloved.
You are an amazing person.
You are enough.
❤
That first one is garbage! If you spend money like this: (and I think everyone does) "oh that's not expensive" without thinking about the frequency of those types of purchases, you could be losing thousands of dollars a year. THOUSANDS! that pays bills, invests, etc. So very much so, the little things take a bite! Be wise with your money at all times, not just the easy things like big purchases.
Buying coffee is one thing.. spending $3-$5/day, often > 1x adds up to *thousands
Thousands today is literally 10’s of thousands 30, 40 yrs from now
It doesn't cause infertility. but working TOO MUCH with the computer can seriously degrade your chances to test your fertility out.
6:10 so why is my blood pressure higher in the morning after coffee and lower in the evening when I’m drinking alcohol? I can be 160/90 in the morning but 100/60 in the evening. My blood pressure is always and I mean always lower when consuming alcohol. My doctors have said I should cut back on coffee in the morning to curb my blood pressure. I think your facts are misguided. Statistics are adjustable to what you want them to say.
Coffee and finance: It all depends on who you have it with! Cats/milk: DO NOT feed adult cats milk; most are genetically lactose-intolerant. Unless you want running cat s@@t. Suicide hotline: I get no respect! I called, but they put me on hold....Lice: Humans are the only mammals with TWO kinds of lice: Head lice and body lice are different on humans.
