then your parents listen to you're just like them boys in sales who had dreams that NFL are they supposed to pray to God if they keep waking up L mean they're so long they got pictures with the [ __ ] devil themselves everybody okay so guys welcome to today's video we have mama gaji over at the crib now I asked on instagram when asked you guys to ask some questions directed towards my dear mother and yeah are you excited you ready okay that doesn't sound very enthusiastic okay ready all right question one what did your
mock what what did you think when I said I wanted to drop out of high school what yeah it was fun I I cannot even say how it how it felt because it was scary in the way I could I had to chose to say no and you stick with the school education or see where you're coming from I suppose it was a good gamble but knowing you if you were different child with different personality and I know that you are you have a higher expectation from yourself I just I suppose this was a big
gamble and I just been okay so how did how did how did you convince her that your business was more important than school how do I convince you again it's all about knowing of your child you know personality drive and I know that you work so you have a high expectation from yourself and when something is important from you there is no way you would I don't like the word failure but there is no well you would so just knowing that you know when I'm like what you are like yeah well would I suggest anyone
to drop out of school absolutely no no no that's a now same thing same thing I said I could did it just mean it's like for like point zero zero zero zero one percent population I actually I don't know anyone who's like I know high school dropouts were successful but that's because they like they had to drop out of high school to like like literally like take care of like their kid that they knocked up when there were 17 like I know people who have been forced to drop out of high school I don't know
any high school dropout who's chosen to drop out of high school and then been successful so it's not like in general just like you guys know I citizen they just it's not it's not a smart move for like 99.99999 percent of population um this is interesting if I follow the education system where do you think I'd be right now the idea was for you to become a lawyer wasn't it when I was young I said I wanted to be a lawyer because I like didn't I first of all oh by the way sorry it wasn't
just I still have a dad and well there was a one throw your pepper and hitting them it's funny I still have them not where you're alright well where you want to be I mean what become when you grow up and you said I want to become a lawyer and then yeah one thing about me and I'm sure I'll go back to like my whole house one day and get a bunch of these things um you can see like from 11 12 13 14 15 now he's explaining stuff down all the time like I was
almost like a writer I would also write things down and almost like like visualize things I'd always like I'd explore the future I was very like future like driven so um yeah where do you think I I think most likely you would do something you know whatever it sure is whatever you will shoot children teachers and I would support here anyway that's that's for sure I would never force you to do something that I think is right for you that's okay okay say a year ago or like two years ago what did you want me
to become uh-huh few years ago I thought no your children you see you cannot just make a decision and think that's how it's gonna be that is my opinion that's how I'll see and that is my approach and I thought that there is a still time and there is a good chance that you would change your mind so for that reason I thought it could be a lawyer or by the time he finished who already went to uni there is a still chance that he would choose another layer which is something different so for that
reason I Novus I kind of stay open-minded okay so right now if I hadn't have dropped out of high school dude I would be I would still be in school oh yeah and what do you think I'd be doing if I was still in school I like I said honestly man whatever you choose I would if I would support you I cannot decide for you because I don't know you probably there is a chance like I said that you know there is also chance that she'll change his mind like my sister's son he just finished
economy and one of the best unis and in the end last year of training he decided that that is not for him that is four years of university education time fees and so and so on and now he is moved to another university you see okay so I mean the most important thing is for you to get up in the morning and be happy to do what you love doing so how do you feel about your son's businesses well it's killed him last night he is very passionate about it and as long as it's folks
for him works for his clients and he somehow even if it is built or little change people's life or in a positive way that's that's it for me okay so next question what will you feel about a man once he once he starts making millions a month well a man will still be a man it doesn't how much human I mean as long as you're staying humble I think it's very important to stay humble and money is doesn't make you who you are it is your achievement yes it is but still yeah look at a
year ago where obviously you know I was dead broke had no money and then look at me now you're a later has money changed me at all good good bad in between aha you become very you almost well mature for your age but looking like you it's like oh my god he if you think he is still kid just give it at all and you become when you grow up so fast fast ok yeah sometimes I even wonder whether or not it's a good thing but we'd love you to enjoy your childhood the trash to
be found I always say that you'll always be her I don't you have a long yes I had to be another open upon holders responsibility so and I'm very proud of you and I hope you're not missing done childhood listening reading and being real kid I'm almost a kid inside okay nice question did she allow you to drop out before you started making money or only after you started making money you were making money from Egypt for tuning in a little but you always had that yo I could see that you want more you're and
you are more can you just I couldn't just stop you because I could see that I think it's the worst thing I'm not saying every parent should do the same but if you see that your child is so determined it's it's not even in determination it's for you I think it was almost natural because I noticed from very young age that you were starting toward school business and apply and try to see what you can achieve and when you when you start sleeping your comments on sort of the property desert sleeping in tribal council yeah
you were 14 a small kid and I thought well that is not serious at that time method flipping becomes or Facebook there is no business for it it just a joke waste of time nevertheless I thought maybe I'm not understanding something if it is working probably there is something that I don't know so let him do that as long and that was a few remember as a kid they do mermaid as long as you put in good good grades from school with the your free time you can choose what you love do you remember that
I want you to take thing is swimming please and that not that we didn't try you try everything but you're you wanted to spend like four days a week playing football and they said okay that's fine yes Colin I used to be big into football is it play football at like pretty much like semi-professional level I had trials that a team called Fulham for three months I played with our first team didn't get in they were like there's no near their level but I was almost like pretty good at football I could settle to pitch
and I was almost like one of if not the best football is like soccer fight okay used to travel go with my team like two summers in a row to Sweden for like the youth World Cup but yeah football was like there's soccer with something I was really big into yeah and so at that time the deal was as long as you study hard or smart and you're very capable you're doing quite good at school and after that on your free time do whatever you please as long as you're not just wasting time in front
of TV but you never know that the child who would sit in front of TV was time so I'm really impressed the way you you know from very young age you were very in the right direction I suppose you have your priorities you could see very clearly or cry or it is what is the best of time what is what's more to Utah so right next this is a next question but it's kind of more towards me also how did you afford mentors and courses iron do you remember okay so in terms of mentors and
courses for me books were also my best friend I would always go and buy used books and use books are like pretty cheaply like 1 2 3 pounds I've never buy new books and I used to read books would be my mentor when you know I didn't have money for like proper self education and then in terms of my first mentor I I don't pay mentors there is just a relationship that builds and then in terms of courses I remember I was a had absolutely no money at all I had to sign like a hundred
pound deposit video or the Tony Robbins event yeah I went to like a Tony Robbins like free workshop don't do that they will upsell you like you'll get some value but what's the sales presentation starts they're bad they're good at what they do leave that place remember I came home and I like a Louie begged you for like days to lend me and she had to lend me like 700 bucks to pay for the rest I put epidemic 150 to pause it and should I have to pay I begged her for 700 bucks no 600
it was like 550 600 pounds no Louis maybe an American audience anyways okay let's just eight pounds so I put it our like a hundred pounds which is all I had in my account and I went home and I had to beg her for days to give me the other 600 and then I'd pay her back for the Tony Robbins event that happened like in April so you know and my thinking in my head was like once I go to that then hopefully I'll be doing good six financially or hopefully all at least have something
that I can really build and work on but um how did I Ford courses and mentors anything I made went straight back into self education and like yeah I see a lot of people out there like they're like self education is so important and bought but they're not actually living it like she knows from an early age like would walk in on me I'm like 13 14 15 and it's like 2 o'clock in the morning I'm reading books and she's like after school in like five hours like go to bed and I do remember like
all the yellow notepads at home and stuff like that with like I have or like you remember stacks of of real estate notes yeah you know so how do I for courses and mentors once I started making money right everything I started making and that's why I had such a crazy year was because rather than you know yeah trust me at the beginning especially after dropping at high school I felt like I had a chip on my shoulder I felt like I had something to prove so when I first left school I did you know
I would I would spend stupid money but I got over that really quickly and then after that although all the money I made was in courses coaching stuff like that and spending my money wisely soon yeah speaking robot books I mean Obama so saying I never met a child who to whom you asked what would you like for Christmas I don't know if you remember that yeah and you give me a list of books and next day a few days after I mean human time as an ensign I don't know in this I don't want
that I want books and I thought I never met a child who would say I don't want this toy or that game I want Brooks and I mean what can I say it's the right way and I'm very proud of Union so books you must and like for the previous fashion if you cannot afford coaches coaches seminars and so and so they are to start with lots of free seminars in Burma for you it's worth more if you have time and books are the best - you have you can only reach the stage when you
can afford to actually next question haften did you worry about my future and how do how do you feel not I'm successful like I'm guessing in the past or at least like for example a year ago there's an offer as for like for probably for like a year a year and a half every single day was fighting because there was no funny things in art not much fun okay okay you know a little thing we have a no-bullshit policy yeah from a month and a half and let's be honest for a month and a half
our relationship was nearly broken which is because of me right because of because of the fact that I was trying to push for dropping out of high school and I was like I was bare as I was very rebellious and I knew what I wanted and it was very scary yes yes that is because you see you in all fairness you went to one of the best school yeah didn't miss out looks a lot into you everything was it I'm not saying rates like but there was a lot time and everything invested in your childhood
for your future aggregation that you would finish school in multiple school from there it sounds like a right way it's it seems like a right way for your future to go for your child future to start from yes there was a I wouldn't say it was a fight I would disagree no [ __ ] policies here okay here okay well we'll leave it at that and how do you feel now I'm successful like I said I'm proud of you very proud of him and I know and I believe that he here will always be successful
after life but at the same time I don't have a really fixed money because I know a little bit about life you can be very successful one day and you don't know what's gonna happen in a few years time but Iman Iman will never let that happen and I hope that is the case but then you never know whatever success is I think I think you are no younger your expectation from yourself yo you will always be okay next question on a scale of one to ten how much do you ship Iman and Natasha which
means like how much do you how much do you like think we're a good fit and to be honest a man I don't really know Natasha very although I know know you guys have met like three times yeah I'm quite sure that she is a lovely a good lady I cannot really say very much because I didn't spend enough time with her but I feel like several of their must be it must be him she must be make it good lovely all right there you go okay so someone asks where do you see your where
do you see yourself in five years well here's hopefully I will burn your mindfulness testing my business that doesn't have to be yeah and also the list traveling as much as possible yes you want to travel you know and then definitely I will say I will start a life from scratch from in you'll see on scratch about starting from this year maybe next year possibly most likely this year and very soon yeah I will have to start from all over again from beginning and it's gonna be an and next chapter in my life and and
in the way I'm quite excited to see what's gonna happen well it's going to be a new step sure okay so next question what was like the hardest part of cuz they know you're here like relatively young um what was the hardest part of having like a kid at a young age by the way in Russia like so ummm when you were 23 and then 2029 yeah so 22 like in Russia like that's not young so a union in those times it's like that's like normal yeah in part where I'll grow up in the Republic
of Dagestan 23 is even by the age of 23 most girls are married and have a children but then you come to London when you meet my stepfather yeah and like here that's completely different and so yes and come here I realize that Wow in here at age of 22 23 aerials with thinking of children you know but I'm gonna wanna I mean I'm glad that I start every hardest part of it hardest part of it there are definitely challenges but it's another all about your mindset I never look at it as a heart there
are challenges definitely but I never look or think of it that way so for that reason I would not even say which part most likely it is just relying on yourself all the time but because you're used to it it's it's become okay yeah sometime you wish you would have someone to rely on but on the other hand not having it makes you in a way stronger wiser and okay so next question I'm gonna rephrase it slightly because I know it's like a touchy subject serve the the question of like how like how do you
what's your view on me being so open and honest about like some of the good things I've done some the bad things I've done because you know one thing about my mom is I've never ever like lied to her like there are certain things I would not mention to protect her and to whatever just to keep things a bit more peaceful in the house but like for the most part like I've never ever like to her whether I was going through bad things good things so what's your opinion on me being like so such an
honest and like no [ __ ] person honest with me or with honest first honest with you and then honest with everyone to start with honest with me I think it is obviously as a positive thing because and to in order to have your child being honest with you you have been kind of build a trust not just be able I'm not saying it in a bad way I don't want parents some parents to thank you but you have to build a trust with your child if your type of person who just think I was
from that family that kind of fine maneuver parents never almost never listen to me they did listen but I felt like my opinion didn't matter because their parents and I have to respect their opinion therefore I will go get whatever they said and please them and I didn't want my child to grow up that way I want them to call him to be open honest with me so we can sit down and see from both side and convey the and decided come with a variety station and met halfway or at least the painting room so
honesty is really a really good thing and but like I said you know people cannot some people about not be honest with you unless you you have to build a trust simply you have to build a trust with someone for them to be able to be honestly your vendor that is that for you and me with the rest honest tears are always the best policy honesty is always the best well sometime when you put everything on public I have a mixed feeling a sharing everything with the public with strangers about your life I personally would
be I would probably hesitate a little bit and choose carefully what I share with people and what I don't admit people yep so I choose issues like she's a lot more like cautious and stuff like that and a lot more wary of she is very mixed feelings about how open and honest I am especially about certain things that are very honest that I've gone through and done in eccentric cetera so yeah obviously I'm just turned an adult 18 you're now 40 1440 right under 40 yes you're 40 do you want to go ahead and give
them like in your 40 years of experience well what would you tell your 20 year old self if you go back 20 years and tell yourself only to 20 what would that mean believe in yourself to start with don't don't be cocky in a way just know learn about yourself explore yourself forgive yourself but don't there are some young people who almost falsely believe in their ability more than you know just-just-just learn about yourself before you jump into something we'll be able to say and that's one thing that FMVs believe in yourself do believe in
yourself to some extent but don't become almost dissolution about you know yeah so yeah that's where we are very different opinions but I'm ready I think people should know why what why cuz I'm like in my head well if you do if you believe you can do anything with it with any reason I will never help at this point I'll never come a professional soccer player mm-hmm right I've had three four years where I haven't even been playing it at a high level that won't happen but if I say I'm gonna be worth 100 billion
yeah show me why like that's why I'm saying oh yeah unless you see I can see we don't believe in yourself go for it but no learn what you actually realistically I know you don't like more than realistic being a realist you can go for it you're not Magnussen but still I mean let's imagine that there is a kid I don't like this talking about this but let's imagine there are kids who think they can and do something great at all it's all great but you a few honestly you have to sit down an honest
thing do I have the personality can you really make it happen there are some people who are not being negative or almost think that they can achieve more than they can really do that's what I'm saying there is it makes sense it makes sense I mean I'm never gonna be a professional server now but like I also if like if I say I'm going to be worth a hundred billion in my head to young people listen to your parents there is no one on earth who have the best interest know when your parents listen to
you don't do that don't do that sorry sorry don't listen to your parents the worst idea ever oh never listen to them anyways um love you thank you for coming on and yeah guys I hope you got your answers your questions answered and yeah hope you got a little bit of an insight in between in into what it's like having me as a sudden and and yes I Joey my son is the Chewie and yeah as I'll see you tomorrow [Music]
