I have no idea what he is going on about, except don't conform.. but I don't see how that is going to get anybody rich.
Seems like he is just talking about his own problem which is conforming.

Are you referring to the entire video? Or the part around 12:40? My point was that we often don't value the things in life that really matter and focus too much on financial success and material possessions instead.

I've always found the sound of rain hitting your house while you are sitting comfortably inside to be relaxing.

Billup better have one hell of a punchline planned or I'll be mortally disappointed.

Hey, not all of us have kids.

Is this the same secret as the "Secret". Think positive towards your goal and you will achieve it.

This sounds absolutely self-centered but I appreciate life much more when I see persons with mental development problems.

Seeing a reunion between significant others after one of them returns from deployment. Whether it be child/parent, husband/wife or even watching a dog return to its owner after fighting together. I think it is a raw view of unconditional love especially since you know the journey those people (or even animals) have gone through has been a rough and long one.
