old man's [Music] advice good morning I made a video not too long ago called an old man's advice wow looking at me it looks like I need to trim my beard a little bit but I received several requests to continue on with that and so I've decided to share a little bit about myself and my life and my hardships and my successes with you you know this this world today is tough it's tough for young people it's tough for people that for years have had jobs and security and made good money and been able to

take care of their families and some time ago as you know jobs were shipped overseas to improve the bottom line of big companies and I thought I'd tell you a little bit about myself I I quit school when I was in a 10th grade um my mother and father left me standing on a street corner it's always up to me to make it and I had a job working at a Shell fing station and I went to the owner and I told him my situation and I was making a dollar an hour and I asked

him if I could work more hours and so I began working 90 hours a week and during that time as I've said before my home was the back of an old car and I work my 90 hours a week and I took my baths in a ping station restroom and I wash my clothes my private clothes in the sink and once in a while when I was really hungry I would go to the grocery store and snitch an apple or an orange now this was in the 50s things were a lot different than they are

now and I'm convinced that the owner of the grocery store knew what I was doing because it was about a half a block away from where I worked and he knew me now I've said before that good things nor bad things last forever and that's true and I began to learn different things I knew in my soul that if I had nothing to offer I was as far as I was going to go now unemployment at that time was very high on the other hand in the 50s you could go into a corporation and ask

for a job and get it and after I'd worked 90 hours a week for a long time I went into the service I was 177 in service I taught myself to read and write the first book I picked up was was a book written by lisore and had 96 pages in it I'll never forget it was a cowboy story at Western and there were words in there that I didn't know I didn't understand I I had no idea what they were so I got a dictionary from the service library and as I would read if

there was a word that I didn't understand I would look it up and I will tell you now it took me almost 3 weeks to read 196 pages but I read and I continued to read and in several months I was reading two and three books at a time and I knew where I was and every single one of them so that's what you can do a person's mind is incredible your mind is incredible as a young person regardless of what's happening in the world today you have opportunity and don't you believe for one single

minute what they say in the media because if you aren't getting ahead and you need to get ahead position yourself to learn go to the library and learn you are the backbone of this world young people without you this world is nothing nothing you are the backbone of this world you are the future leaders of this world you are the ones that see the greed of the people that are running it now you're the ones that see the waste of the people that are running it now we need you we need your minds we need

your hearts we need your lives we need your loves we need you to for ET [Music] [Music] ACC [Music] brail [Music] comp care and and I know that you do care oh I see young people stepping on the flag and and throwing rocks and rioting that's frustration frustration it's frustration with the establishment and I understand it but that's not you don't let that be you rise above it you're better than that Rise Above It Anyway I got kind of off track there but anyway as I went on and I got out of the service I

had begun to write and educate myself I got a little bit of college and I've continued on through my life with that and you can do the same thing you don't have to have a doctorate or a PhD PhD or a master's degree what you have to have is determination you have to have an inner will to get things done you have to have a desire and I know the desire is there because as I said before without your brains without your ambition without your drive this world will be nothing nothing because old people like

me die off I have been successful not tremendously successful but I have a decent retirement I live with my lovely wife and in Arizona I've had financial problems everyone has those but you can't stop you can't quit you can't say I'm a failure you're not a failure you're not you're a wonderful strong intelligent youngster take advantage of that trust in God trust in yourself and step forward put One Foot In Front Of Another let me give you an example I've had a couple of businesses they weren't tremendously successful but they were successful I've written books

I have presently probably 13 or 14 books in a publication my latest is a copper penny it's in paperback on Amazon look it up um so you can do it I did it you can do it I'm 76 and to the to my last breath I will encourage young people because I love them I will encourage young people because I know they are the future you are the ones that must save the oceans you are the ones that that must save the air because those that are in power the bottom line unfortunately for many many

of those in power All Over The World Is wealth and power over others so I'm going to close this this now but I just just wanted you to know that people like me old Soldiers old people we understand and as old as I am I would pick up my can and defend you to my last breath look go for for fore [Music]
