This is definitely going to be an issue the bigger this channel gets. Clearly voices of powerful interest will want to silence your voice. Corbyn is an authentic leader and his voice/ movement aimed to deal with wealth inequality. He has been very effectively silenced and marginalised.

People in my generation (Gen Z) don't yet realise that if we remain on our current economic trajectory, that we will never: own a home, have financial stability or be able to have children of our own in this rapidly destabilising world. My future depends on solving inequality. I'm no Socialist or communist but we need a brief societal reset which sensibly distrubutes the wealth and assets MORE equally across society.

Hi Gary, here is a snippet of positivity for you to notch up! I recently bought your autobiography and raved about it to my brother, whose narrative is, 'My sister is good with numbers.. ' and left that as my forte. After raving about your book to him and him reading it, he has a simple understanding of the plight and reason for the plight of the ordinary people who spend the majority of their lives being employed in a 9 to 5 and wanting to have a home and a family, and, be able to provide for them. A change of one mindset at a time will eventually have the power of the people who stand behind it. God bless you for using your gift to bring clarity for ordinary people!
Thanks for the content Gary, it's great to hear your message is filtering through slowly but surely, and as your channel grows that message will get louder and louder. Have a good holiday mate. Fair play about being upfront with regards to donations and funding, I'm certain you'll get plenty of support for the good you're doing.
One of the first and best thing’s you’re doing is reclaiming the narrative and encouraging purposeful conversation. It’s a great start. Enjoy your Jolly!
Hi Gary, I have no doubt your request for donations with be very well supported by us, your supporters and well wishers. We await next steps on this. The time is certainly right to take your channel to the next level and extend it's reach to larger audience. As an Economics teacher myself, please be reassured that your ideas and proposals for reducing wealth inequality are being heard loud and clear by a rapidly growing number of A' level and undergraduate Economics students. The next generation of Economists, investment bankers, Politician's and industry leaders!!! Your message is definitely building momentum. Thank you for everything you are doing, it is greatly appreciated. Enjoy your much needed holiday, and we look forward to following and supporting you when you return. All the best.
The fact people from FT are trying to get dirt on you, shows how threatened they feel by you, at overturning the status quo of the rich getting richer. Shows you’re doing a good job Gary. Enjoy the holiday, you’ve worked hard and need it 🏖️
@@mangohwy Journos and Academia are the intellectual court of the Managerial State. Democracy is just soft communism - part of the Iron Law of Oligarchy, especially since the Managerial Revolution in the early 20th century.
Gary! People like you are the true voice of the ordinary person. I've listened to your book on audio, your story is that of a very holistic person. Started off poor, became rich but didn't lose himself in wealth. As a guy the same age as you you're a hero man. My dream is to become wealthy enough to do the kind of thing you're doing now. I do my bit but it's of course hard with less free time. But you are someone I get behind. My only fear is to change anything you need an army of like minded thinkers. You have one in me
I thought a really key insight from your book was that when people hear "inequality" they often think of it as a sort of moralistic afterthought, rather than a matter of practical concern or a driving force in the economy. It's going to take a while to break that pattern of thinking, because it means even when the subject of inequality does get brought up, the message isn't always getting through. But it's achievable. Thank you for all the work you do Gary - enjoy your holiday!
Thank you so much Gary. I am so grateful for such good souls like yourself. I have been feeling so low about the state of the country, the world, and ignorance about the reasons for growing inequality. I'm not surprised you're exhausted, but God bless you for leading the way for a more equal world 🙏
Appreciate your videos dude, we need more people like you saying it how it is. Would love to see more detailed information into the economic side of how everything works, gain more of an understanding and grasping the terminology for example. Knowledge is power as they say 👍
I am trying to spread your message wherever possible Gary. I want to see people mobilise people into the streets. Enjoy your break. You are so appreciated !! 🙏❤️
Nice job, man. Your rhetoric on this stuff is the best I've heard. There's a lot of people out there who agree with you already but they aren't articulating it this well. You're doing valuable work in just providing them good lines and talking points, not even counting the people moved over.
Gary I found you earlier this year and I’ve learned so much from you. I love what you’re doing, and I love your unique perspective of economics, because you’re one of us working class people. So thrilled to see your channel growing even since I found you. You’ve given a lot of us hope that there is something better if we can mobilise and make it happen. We need your continued guidance. Exciting to hear how things are expanding, do what you need to do to continue that momentum. Enjoy your well earned break, so vital to look after yourself and recharge your batteries. Safe travels and thank you 🙏🏻
Was watching a podcast with an economics professor when they where bluntly asked if they had beaten the stock market this year. They stuttered and fumbled a pathetic no and then I knew "this is one of them pricks Gary warned us about" all talk no game. Keep putting your voice out. It's making a difference. Thanks for the work you do
Please keep going Gary…so important. For me the starting point is (and has been for 45 years) to change voting to a proportional one. Not a panacea…but a door-opener to so much.

Gary Stevenson did for Economics what Galileo did for our understanding of Gravity. He looked at the text books and said "They are wrong!". Galileo was (and still is) correct and so is Gary!
@@margaretgaskin4928 Newton was wrong about Gravity being a force and orbits are all part of the 3D illusion so Galileo is the Daddy of Gravity not Newton!
Richard Murphy has covered all this, and more, for the past 4 years or so. Gary R is just a younger person speaking to a younger audience. The good new is that the message from the two is broadly the same.
Guys chill. All of science is built on what came before, Galileo was more accurate than those before as was Newton, as was Gauss, as was Einstein and Dirac and turing etc. Who is "best" is as interesting a discussion as which dinosaur is "best". Obviously the stegosaurus.
Bless you Gary, the things you've been saying have really cut through. It is so refreshing to have my deepest fears acknowledged, it's not just us, we are all getting poorer and the answer is to tax the rich
Just wanted to say thank you for the work you do. I feel I have learnt so much from your videos and no longer sleep walk through some of these areas you have covered mate. Hope your Holiday was a great!
Finding your voice was a breath of fresh air for me. Here's my issue with the current situation, no one in history so far has taken on the 1% & won. I wish you'd give us something that we can be hopeful for, solid plan that is viable. Have a great time away, rest is crucial 🙏🤞👌
That is our biggest problem. They have limitless funds to make sure we remain powerless and our voices are not heard or heeded. I really cannot see how we can take control of them even though we far outnumber them. Their power and influence is too vast to overcome. Very depressing.
Enjoy your holiday Gary your voice is needed. Interesting that this was filmed about 2 weeks ago and it foreshadows exactly what's happening right now with the mention of immigration and farage. As far as the TH-cam channel goes I think that it would be interesting and helpful for you to interview people. Politicians economists journalists all of the other people out there that engage with these ideas of political economy and to not only share where they're coming from but also engage in a discussion with them about where you're coming from and where everyone needs things to go. I also think on some level you need to become more politically engaged and potentially even run for office and start thinking about that so that you can have the spotlight of being an MP while your campaigning for the movement and your ideas at the same time. If we need someone like you closer to the levers that need to be pulled then that's what we need. And we need to get you closer to the people that are close to those levers.
Richard tice has economic policies that in my opinion would bring about gdp per capita growth if they were to be fully constructed though. When a football team buys a player they use data to find the best player for a position they look to strengthen rather than the colour of their skin. Why can't the uk be more like arsenal and less like a state that uses a quota system for everything..
Thanks for it everything Gary. I am big’ing you up both here in Adelaide Australia and to my family and friends back in the Uk. Have a great holiday man. Much love.
Enjoy your break away! Your channel and the information you provide has help me understand how the economy and finance work, keep doing what you’re doing, thank you 👍
Take a break and enjoy your holiday! You have worked so hard in building this community and you definitely need more support including financial for it to grow! I hope to see this community eventually support itself and it is possible! I'm so proud of you and how far this channel has come! I know it's hard times right now for us all, but your channel gave me hope for the first time in a very long time! I know this is hard work in the times we live in, and am grateful to you for doing it! Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺♥️
Maybe have a public feed that shows the revenue and outgoings of the channel, including salaries, equipment, marketing etc. That would be amazing because then everyone who donates could see the balance sheet and how they were contributing. Plus, the primary themes of this channel are economics and politics, so adding revenue and costings would simultaneously have the transparency that politics SHOULD have and the figures to educate people on how a business works!!!
Gary great words ! listened from beginning to end . Farage may in your eyes be louder in volume but it's Consistency is false and manipulative! Your message is real and your quest is one that will change People's lives Change is going to come Thank you
I got me a copy of your book as soon as it came out, but I've got such a huge backlog of books I've only just read it. Excellent. I see a future for you in writing. Both informative and then informative about your life, but you have also woven the whole into a damn good yarn. All the best.
Halfway through your book and, as expected, really enjoying the read. Thanks for sharing your story and all that you are doing to educate our communities - from a fellow working class comrade! 😊

Morning Gary. Thank you, for your podcasts. They have been very informative. If you are opening up to donations I would gladly give. Good luck with forging forwards. Enjoy your time away. You deserve it. ☮️ 🙌🏼
Well done Gary and hope you enjoyed your holiday. I think aside from financial contributions there might also be volunteers in your community who have the skills to help you grow. Something to think about maybe. Keep going and good luck!
Found your channel after watching a business insider interview, subbed and turned notifications on. Hoping to learn more on how to survive as a middle class nobody.
Enjoy your well deserved break Gary :). Please continue your channel, despite the mainstream press trying to "discredit' you! I would be happy to 'donate' some of my spare time to help if you'd like.
I’m new here. One of many thousands who saw your recent interview. Good to be hear and enjoy your break. Look forward to going through your vast video library.
Hello, Gary! I just saw your video from Insider and I came here to learn more about you, economics and your message. I'm glad to meet a voice like yours and hope you are doing fine. Have a good time off and thank you!
If wealth inequality is defined as richest 10% vs poorest 10% (or something like that) then you can tax the rich of course, but also improve take home pay for the poor (e.g. increase the personal tax allowance to 20k or even 25k). But it would be interesting to hear Gary’s view of the impact of immigration on inequality, as if you have unskilled immigrants competing for jobs with the “British” working class (whilst also filling up council housing) then a lot of people are going to end up on minimum wage (and unable to get a place of their own due to housing scarcity and increased rents). Sorry if that sounds “far right”, but there must be people caught up in this!
@sandworm9528 mass immigration is a problem though especially when those who enter do not have the same values to that of your country. If you allowed 5 million Japanese people to come every year nobody would protest.
@@stevenrix7024 100% i agree. Crazy how saying we shouldn't accept illegal immigrants and we should just tone down unskilled immigration is far right these days
New subscriber. I saw your interview about being a trader and your story grabbed my attention. I’m from a poor background too and loved learning so managed to get myself a good education. I went a different route to you and here I am now working as a therapist after a long time in the corporate world. I agree 100% with your analysis. Inequality is destroying us. It’s obscene. You are fighting for the right change. You need to take self care seriously though so glad to hear you are taking time off to do something you enjoy while you think about the future of the channel.
You are a bridge builder and a solution seeker, I applaud. your efforts. Your voice is an important one and a reason why a lot of people are waking up and becoming more educated in their financial understanding of the world.

I have no doubt your request for donations with be very well supported by us, your supporters and well wishers. We await next steps on this.
The time is certainly right to take your channel to the next level and extend it's reach to larger audience.
As an Economics teacher myself, please be reassured that your ideas and proposals for reducing wealth inequality are being heard loud and clear by a rapidly growing number of A' level and undergraduate Economics students. The next generation of Economists, investment bankers, Politician's and industry leaders!!! Your message is definitely building momentum.
Thank you for everything you are doing, it is greatly appreciated. Enjoy your much needed holiday, and we look forward to following and supporting you when you return. All the best.
Thank you for enlightening the frustrated population. Education is the key to change a system and society.
The fact people from FT are trying to get dirt on you, shows how threatened they feel by you, at overturning the status quo of the rich getting richer. Shows you’re doing a good job Gary. Enjoy the holiday, you’ve worked hard and need it 🏖️
Despicable journalism, which just shows you the FT is no better than the tabloid press. Loving you Gary!
@@carrroadmy thoughts exactly.
The corporate press is the enemy of the people. Academia and Journalism are the villains of society.
Here in the states the billionaires own the journos or at least the editors. Very few will call them out. TH-cam has been the best thing for democracy
@@mangohwy Journos and Academia are the intellectual court of the Managerial State. Democracy is just soft communism - part of the Iron Law of Oligarchy, especially since the Managerial Revolution in the early 20th century.
Gary! People like you are the true voice of the ordinary person. I've listened to your book on audio, your story is that of a very holistic person. Started off poor, became rich but didn't lose himself in wealth. As a guy the same age as you you're a hero man. My dream is to become wealthy enough to do the kind of thing you're doing now. I do my bit but it's of course hard with less free time. But you are someone I get behind. My only fear is to change anything you need an army of like minded thinkers. You have one in me
Just finished your book, Gary. Incredible story, incredibly written. Congratulations.
Great writing great story right? Insider becoming an outsider, very rare in our times
I thought a really key insight from your book was that when people hear "inequality" they often think of it as a sort of moralistic afterthought, rather than a matter of practical concern or a driving force in the economy. It's going to take a while to break that pattern of thinking, because it means even when the subject of inequality does get brought up, the message isn't always getting through. But it's achievable. Thank you for all the work you do Gary - enjoy your holiday!
Thank you so much Gary. I am so grateful for such good souls like yourself. I have been feeling so low about the state of the country, the world, and ignorance about the reasons for growing inequality.
I'm not surprised you're exhausted, but God bless you for leading the way for a more equal world 🙏
Appreciate your videos dude, we need more people like you saying it how it is.
Would love to see more detailed information into the economic side of how everything works, gain more of an understanding and grasping the terminology for example. Knowledge is power as they say 👍
Keep going Gary, you're really changing things... When it happens it will happen quickly, like an avalanche and it's going to happen!
I am trying to spread your message wherever possible Gary. I want to see people mobilise people into the streets. Enjoy your break. You are so appreciated !! 🙏❤️
Read your book, shared your book and am grateful for all you are doing.
I have been spreading your message loud and clear. all of my family have read your book and other families I tell. I am shouting about your message!
It makes total sense to look for further support to grow. I'd happily donate.
Nice job, man. Your rhetoric on this stuff is the best I've heard. There's a lot of people out there who agree with you already but they aren't articulating it this well. You're doing valuable work in just providing them good lines and talking points, not even counting the people moved over.
Gary I found you earlier this year and I’ve learned so much from you. I love what you’re doing, and I love your unique perspective of economics, because you’re one of us working class people.
So thrilled to see your channel growing even since I found you. You’ve given a lot of us hope that there is something better if we can mobilise and make it happen. We need your continued guidance. Exciting to hear how things are expanding, do what you need to do to continue that momentum.
Enjoy your well earned break, so vital to look after yourself and recharge your batteries. Safe travels and thank you 🙏🏻
Was watching a podcast with an economics professor when they where bluntly asked if they had beaten the stock market this year. They stuttered and fumbled a pathetic no and then I knew "this is one of them pricks Gary warned us about" all talk no game. Keep putting your voice out. It's making a difference. Thanks for the work you do
Please keep going Gary…so important. For me the starting point is (and has been for 45 years) to change voting to a proportional one. Not a panacea…but a door-opener to so much.
Is there a correlation between PR and lower inequality? It seems like it, if I'm not mistaken, right?
@@scallamander4899it would make sense - if you need a coalition representing more than 50% of the population, you can't play to 30% of the population in a way that burns bridges with the other 70%
Yes 100% there is ..just look at Scotland Voting system..then look at the policies.."free"education, prescription, bus, train and many more benefits
e@@scallamander4899
@@markwelch3564 that’s absolutely true, but doesn’t it also mean less likelihood of fulfilling manifestos? I’ve seen as much in studies of different electoral systems
@@scallamander4899 it means 50% + of people get most of what they want, rather than 30% getting everything they want at everyone else's expense. It's a healthier balance in politics
You are one of the most important voice we have right now - thanks so much for all the hard work
When money is distributed amongst a greater number of people, the money gets spent by a greater number of people this improves the economy.
Um...no
@@user-pf5xq3lq8i obviously, yes!
Gary Stevenson did for Economics what Galileo did for our understanding of Gravity. He looked at the text books and said "They are wrong!". Galileo was (and still is) correct and so is Gary!
Brilliant comment
Galileo didn't revolutionise our understanding of gravity. Newton did. Sorry to be accurate. But this about the numbers and you can't be sloppy.
@@margaretgaskin4928 Newton was wrong about Gravity being a force and orbits are all part of the 3D illusion so Galileo is the Daddy of Gravity not Newton!
Richard Murphy has covered all this, and more, for the past 4 years or so. Gary R is just a younger person speaking to a younger audience. The good new is that the message from the two is broadly the same.
Guys chill. All of science is built on what came before, Galileo was more accurate than those before as was Newton, as was Gauss, as was Einstein and Dirac and turing etc. Who is "best" is as interesting a discussion as which dinosaur is "best".
Obviously the stegosaurus.
Bless you Gary, the things you've been saying have really cut through. It is so refreshing to have my deepest fears acknowledged, it's not just us, we are all getting poorer and the answer is to tax the rich
Blessings, Gary and collaborators.
Just wanted to say thank you for the work you do. I feel I have learnt so much from your videos and no longer sleep walk through some of these areas you have covered mate.
Hope your Holiday was a great!
As I've said before don't piss down my back and call it trickle down economics, thanks for being a voice in the wilderness have a lovely holiday mate.
Just love this chap!!! I wish I would have found your channel few years ago
You're here now that's what matters
Finding your voice was a breath of fresh air for me. Here's my issue with the current situation, no one in history so far has taken on the 1% & won. I wish you'd give us something that we can be hopeful for, solid plan that is viable. Have a great time away, rest is crucial 🙏🤞👌
That is our biggest problem. They have limitless funds to make sure we remain powerless and our voices are not heard or heeded. I really cannot see how we can take control of them even though we far outnumber them. Their power and influence is too vast to overcome. Very depressing.
Thank you, Gary, this Is what I needed to start understanding a little bit the world we live in. There should be a Gary in every Country
Sorry you have to go through this Gary but take heart, you must be getting through because they wouldn't waste their time if you weren't a threat,
We love you Gary, keep up the good work.
If I may, I think any sort of community engagement would be very powerful.
Enjoy your holiday Gary your voice is needed. Interesting that this was filmed about 2 weeks ago and it foreshadows exactly what's happening right now with the mention of immigration and farage.
As far as the TH-cam channel goes I think that it would be interesting and helpful for you to interview people. Politicians economists journalists all of the other people out there that engage with these ideas of political economy and to not only share where they're coming from but also engage in a discussion with them about where you're coming from and where everyone needs things to go. I also think on some level you need to become more politically engaged and potentially even run for office and start thinking about that so that you can have the spotlight of being an MP while your campaigning for the movement and your ideas at the same time.
If we need someone like you closer to the levers that need to be pulled then that's what we need. And we need to get you closer to the people that are close to those levers.
Richard tice has economic policies that in my opinion would bring about gdp per capita growth if they were to be fully constructed though.
When a football team buys a player they use data to find the best player for a position they look to strengthen rather than the colour of their skin.
Why can't the uk be more like arsenal and less like a state that uses a quota system for everything..
Yes he must be 🔮 although the writing has been on the wall for some time
So rarely do we see a person giving a message for only good. Humble man with a big message. I’m listening and promoting to what your teaching us Gary
Thanks for it everything Gary. I am big’ing you up both here in Adelaide Australia and to my family and friends back in the Uk. Have a great holiday man. Much love.
Enjoy your break away!
Your channel and the information you provide has help me understand how the economy and finance work, keep doing what you’re doing, thank you 👍
Take a break and enjoy your holiday! You have worked so hard in building this community and you definitely need more support including financial for it to grow! I hope to see this community eventually support itself and it is possible! I'm so proud of you and how far this channel has come! I know it's hard times right now for us all, but your channel gave me hope for the first time in a very long time! I know this is hard work in the times we live in, and am grateful to you for doing it! Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺♥️
Thanks boss
Maybe have a public feed that shows the revenue and outgoings of the channel, including salaries, equipment, marketing etc.
That would be amazing because then everyone who donates could see the balance sheet and how they were contributing. Plus, the primary themes of this channel are economics and politics, so adding revenue and costings would simultaneously have the transparency that politics SHOULD have and the figures to educate people on how a business works!!!
Gary great words ! listened from beginning to end .
Farage may in your eyes be
louder in volume but it's
Consistency is false and
manipulative!
Your message is real and your
quest is one that will change
People's lives
Change is going to come
Thank you
I got me a copy of your book as soon as it came out, but I've got such a huge backlog of books I've only just read it. Excellent. I see a future for you in writing. Both informative and then informative about your life, but you have also woven the whole into a damn good yarn. All the best.
Thanks boss, I worked hard on it
I hope you're able to get the rest you need. Thank you for everything you've done and continue to do.
Just found your channel. Lots of food for thought. Keep going and I hope you had a good holiday.
Have a great break. Keep going! Really appreciate the work you out into the channel.
saw jimmy mention you in a video and decided to check you out - thank you for helping to educate & deprogram him!
Halfway through your book and, as expected, really enjoying the read. Thanks for sharing your story and all that you are doing to educate our communities - from a fellow working class comrade! 😊
Completed your book. Excellent storytelling.
Gary, thank you for your commitment and courage; it might get harder! Hope you can keep healthy, physically and psychologically.
Happy holiday, Gary, and thank you.
I’ve only recently discovered your channel and I LOVE your message, I’m learning so much, and mostly I appreciate someone like you that has the understanding, the knowledge AND the guys and heart to spread this message… I’m HAPPY to contribute to a new donation format to support you and the work you do, hope you have had a wonderful summer vacay!
Now’s the time for Patreon Gary. You’ll get the support. Enjoy Japan and thank you for your content to date. 👍
Thank you Gary! You’re doing incredible work and I think there are people who are very willing to help
❤ Gratitude to you for all your education, service and advice to others. Hope the cycle ride is amazing xx
Hi, cheers from BCN and thanks for opening the eyes of the ordinary people.
Morning Gary.
Thank you, for your podcasts. They have been very informative. If you are opening up to donations I would gladly give.
Good luck with forging forwards.
Enjoy your time away.
You deserve it. ☮️ 🙌🏼
I saw your interview on business insider. Mad respect on your life journey and your new purpose. It makes me reflect on my purpose.
Great work Gary. Keep going with the channel.Its good that the message is starting to break through.Enjoy your well earned holiday !
Keep going Gary. I would vote for your voice of reason!
Well done Gary and hope you enjoyed your holiday. I think aside from financial contributions there might also be volunteers in your community who have the skills to help you grow. Something to think about maybe. Keep going and good luck!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Enjoy your well deserved holiday.🌞🌞🌞
Found your channel after watching a business insider interview, subbed and turned notifications on. Hoping to learn more on how to survive as a middle class nobody.
Enjoy your well deserved break Gary :). Please continue your channel, despite the mainstream press trying to "discredit' you! I would be happy to 'donate' some of my spare time to help if you'd like.
I’m new here. One of many thousands who saw your recent interview. Good to be hear and enjoy your break. Look forward to going through your vast video library.
Nigel has a much louder voice and a much bigger platform than he should have - it's amazing what dirty money will buy you...
Hello, Gary! I just saw your video from Insider and I came here to learn more about you, economics and your message. I'm glad to meet a voice like yours and hope you are doing fine. Have a good time off and thank you!
Damn, considering this video was recorded in June, the mention of immigration is eerily prescient.
And even better he's been saying for years
If wealth inequality is defined as richest 10% vs poorest 10% (or something like that) then you can tax the rich of course, but also improve take home pay for the poor (e.g. increase the personal tax allowance to 20k or even 25k). But it would be interesting to hear Gary’s view of the impact of immigration on inequality, as if you have unskilled immigrants competing for jobs with the “British” working class (whilst also filling up council housing) then a lot of people are going to end up on minimum wage (and unable to get a place of their own due to housing scarcity and increased rents). Sorry if that sounds “far right”, but there must be people caught up in this!
@@stevenrix7024 yup fair enough, won't change anything if you stop immigration without fixing wealth inequality though, so why bother. Pretty basic logic
@sandworm9528 mass immigration is a problem though especially when those who enter do not have the same values to that of your country.
If you allowed 5 million Japanese people to come every year nobody would protest.
@@stevenrix7024 100% i agree. Crazy how saying we shouldn't accept illegal immigrants and we should just tone down unskilled immigration is far right these days
New subscriber. I saw your interview about being a trader and your story grabbed my attention. I’m from a poor background too and loved learning so managed to get myself a good education. I went a different route to you and here I am now working as a therapist after a long time in the corporate world. I agree 100% with your analysis. Inequality is destroying us. It’s obscene. You are fighting for the right change. You need to take self care seriously though so glad to hear you are taking time off to do something you enjoy while you think about the future of the channel.
Thanks for all you do.
You are a bridge builder and a solution seeker, I applaud. your efforts. Your voice is an important one and a reason why a lot of people are waking up and becoming more educated in their financial understanding of the world.
You're doing a fucking great job Gary, keep pushing the message is all you can do, but take care of yourself first.
