Why it worked

Transcript

I'm a millionaire at 19 years old and this is the 10 biggest ways to ruin your life after the age of 18 that can really be detrimental to your life. The first one, getting a random girl pregnant, self-explanatory. Second one, still smoking za. Bro, it makes you lazy and complacent. If you're young, you don't need to be that way. Third one, buying a car you can't buy cash. Coming from a millionaire, every car you should be buying, finance or lease, you should be able to buy that car outright. Fourth one, chasing women, distracted. Sixth, playing video games. Why are you putting yourself in a different reality when you could be upgrading your own life? Seven, spending more than two hours in the gym if you're broke. Eight, going to the military. Nine, listening to your parents' financial advice. Ten, marrying a girl you really don't want to be with. If you're doing any of these things after the age of 18, fix them before you end up ruining your life, brother.
