the sound comes can you hear me now more ad if you can hear me ah yes I don't know what happened man that was really weird okay it works cool cool you know there's a key it would have been easy for me to quit and say well it didn't work out today but I can't do that I can't do that James bring what's going on you can finally hear me I don't know what happened to my sound I was trying to figure this thing out and I had the same exact settings as yesterday and then today it didn't work and that's how life is right some days it just doesn't work you know you do everything you're supposed to do you do everything right and lo and behold it doesn't work and today I'm gonna talk about value guys I think you're really gonna like this I think you're gonna get it I think you're gonna know by the end

is right now how much you worth per hour right now just stick that in there because we're gonna double it whatever it is we're gonna double it okay so put in that that chat section which you think your value is we've got more and more people coming in I did lose a lot of people because I didn't have any sound in the beginning I thought the problem was on my end burnt James no usually if it's a technical difficulty I'm not a technical person it's usually my fault okay I've come to realize that and it doesn't make it up it does make it a whole lot easier to fix things because it's like JR you did something wrong don't blame the computer don't blame your iPhone don't blame your iPad all this technology I got around me and generally it's my problem so I understand that but once again guys put in that chat section which you think your hourly value is what are you worth I mean what are you worth or you know are you a super valuable person and I'm talking about money right now Paul says $60 per hour okay $60 an hour would we like to run that to 120 Paul sit arth what's going on I have more and more people coming in put in that chat section what you think your value is per hour because we're going to double it on this session today double it okay and you're going to see how you have a whole lot more value than what you really realize just hit 70 subscribers wow sit arth

don't and very few people ever hit a thousand let alone 10,000 or 100,000 and I think we're at like 44 4500 right now but yeah so put what your value is James Breen says $25 an hour okay and I will tell you you know I worked as a dishwasher at a Victoria station restaurant when I was a kid in high school and I got paid $1.60 an hour that was my income $1.60 an hour it's gone up since then good thank God you're right most people have a little self-worth and feel like an imposter yes they do but that's not how I want to talk to you about your value today I'm gonna talk to your value a little bit different my channel name is my name okay let me just take a look at his channel real quick here before we get into all this and let's see what Siddhartha is doing let's see here SID I think it's 2D's isn't it yeah $40 with my knowledge and ability that's pretty darn good you know you're 12 years old and you're already thinking that you're worth more than a lot of adults think they're worth so yeah you do have you have 70 subscribers you get five videos and I'm gonna check it out let's see what you got here smartphones under a hundred bucks laptops under 200 how to grow your YouTube channel very interesting best smartwatches and your channel intro I'm gonna check it out that's pretty cool pretty cool stuff okay so let's let's talk about value why do you get $15 an hour why do you get $25 an hour why do you get a thousand dollars an hour and you can put in the chat section why you think you get that okay why do some people get $1,000 an hour $2,000 now I know what my last clients in doing some coaching I was charged them $2,000 an hour to grand an hour and remember I was a dishwasher at a restaurant when I was a kid and I was making a $1.60 an hour what's the difference in the $1.60 in the $2,000 now you can say well JR that was many years ago long times that you're a kid it is it was but okay if I took a job as a dishwasher today what would I make what would I make and in most parts of the United States maybe eight or nine dollars an hour something like that what is the difference what is the difference in $8 an hour in $2,000 an hour what is the difference have you guys figured this out yet because of what you keep into something or bring in expertise $40 with my knowledge he says okay so here's the deal guys does it have anything to do with what kind of person you are does that anything to do with your good person bad person does any of that have anything to do with it is that your value because that's what we're going to talk about today is your value now your intrinsic value okay in other words what are you worth to your family and your friends and all that well they don't pay you but they know you have a value you have a certain value they want to be around you they want to spend time with you you know they love you that is one kind of value it's not the kind of value I'm talking about today it's not the kind of value I'm talking about I am talking to see James bring a 25 cents an hour my god James what did you do where they only paid you 25 cents that's insane 25 cents I mean I was getting $1.60 an hour and that was in guys I hate to say what year it was but I think it was 1974 75 something like that absolutely not but kind up okay so why why do some people make more money than other people have we figured it out you know because I have a you know what some of my most popular videos are how to make money with no technical knowledge and no experience people love those videos they love that stuff you know I have one now it's got thousands and thousands of views and it's how to make money with your laptop with no products and no experience people love that video why though why is it most people go out into the market and they say well you know I want to make money ability to do relationship marketing and deliver 10 times value it is it has a lot to do with value doesn't it if we think about this that dishwasher that I used to be how many people can wash dishes how many people in the market can wash dishes let's look at economics right now if you look at economics worked on a farm in 1947 oh my gosh James okay so you got a couple years on you how old how old is James that would make him 53 66673 real quick math there provided your birthday is not in January okay or the beginning of February because they bring in some valuable and give more dedication and hard work so whatever you are earning your what you earned in 2020 was based on your value whatever that value was okay so how do we increase it for 2021 what's what's the answer to that how do you make more money if you're the same person essentially then you were in 2020 how do you make more money in 2021 what do you do James Breen says 85 you can't be 85 oh wait yeah you could be I was saying okay I was thinking about the year you work that's not the year you were born that's right well James great buddy that's awesome so how do you increase your value what is the you know I want to walk you guys through all these steps here so that you can make more money per hour so you can double your wage per hour what is it what is it that you could do what is the single thing that you could do that would increase your value per hour for 2021 what is it I mean what's the answer to all this and grab a little sip of tea here because there is an answer there is an answer to doubling what your value is per hour in 2021 but what is the answer what is it put it in that chat section there more hard work and think properly and set goals and said heart I'm gonna say that that is helpful but that's not gonna double your value it's not gonna double your value so I'm gonna go back to my example of washing dishes when I was in high school I got $1.60 an hour now why did I get $1.60 an hour right then what did other dishwashers get you know when I was washing dishes they probably it was in Memphis Tennessee they probably all got around $1.60 an hour you know anywhere from $1.50 $2 an hour that was the pay for that job I was doing so the question is now why do I make more money now and how can you make more money now better question okay because it's not about me it's about you how do you double your value in 2021 it's pretty simple Paul says solve a problem that's part of it but that's not the exact thing I'm looking for I'm looking for one specific thing and I gave you a hint when I said you know I have a lot of people who watch that one video that I have words how to make money with your laptop with no products and no technical skills that that is one of the things that I'm kind of hinting around at and I want to wake you guys up with this video today because this video today can literally double what you earn per hour but there is a missing component okay so dishwashers at the time I was watching dishes got a buck 60 an hour that's what I got okay I got what everybody else got about $1.60 why were other people making more per hour than me at that point what was it what was it that differentiated them were they better people were they nicer were they better looking you know were they more honest what was it about those people that were making more per hour and what is the difference now in what I make per hour versus what I would make per hour right now if I was a dishwasher make it $8 or $9 an hour okay that's about what a dishwasher in the United States is gonna make what do you have to do put it in the chat okay I haven't seen it yet I haven't this is a this is an easy one guys I have not seen in the chat the one thing you have to do to become a person who's gonna double your per hour value in 2021 what is it what is that elusive thing I mean if you could do this one thing all of a sudden your per hour would go up but what is it does anybody know what it is does anyone want to guess and if you're watching this you know video after I went live if you're watching it you know it's recorded it's a week old two weeks old you can still put it in there don't look at the other answers though right don't look at the other answers but you can still put it in there but it's just interesting James Breen I think James Breen has come as close as you can to it have more skills have more marketable skills so in the time when I was a kid and I was washing dishes I was making a dollar sixty an hour and now when a dishwasher makes eight or nine dollars an hour it hasn't gone up that much really hasn't but you know there were people when I was a kid they were making over a hundred thousand dollars a year but what were they doing they were doing a different job okay they were doing a different job because of why because they had different skills there's different things they could do so you take a dishwasher of today and they could be a really good person they could be somebody who is a good father good brother husband well whatever and that person is still gonna make eight or nine dollars an hour because that job pays eight or nine dollars an hour but you take somebody who is let's say a rocket scientist a SpaceX they're gonna make more than eight or nine dollars an hour why well because they have more skills okay so the big secret here is instead of going in the market and seeing what the market will give you you need to look at the market and say what does the market need how much value do I put into the market on a daily basis not as a you know husband father you know any of that type stuff or mom or whatever but what kind of value am I gonna put into the market where the market says hey that's really valuable I want to give that person a lot more money okay so if you are you know working you know driving a forklift which I've done you know if you're washing dishes which I've done you're only gonna make x number of dollars an hour because there are so many people that can do that job it's easy to find somebody to do that job you know it's easy to find somebody to work the drive through at McDonald's and I know there's been a lot of this talk about you know well people at fast food places should be paid $15 an hour and they should pay more and you know minimum wage should go up and all this and minimum wage isn't gonna help anybody it's just not gonna help anybody and the reason being is if you up minimum wage okay if let's say a McDonald's has to pay everybody $15 an hour what happens at that McDonald's well several things are gonna happen first off McDonald's is gonna look for a way to lower that okay now how are they gonna lower that $15 an hour well if they had 10 employees before they're gonna try to figure out some way to go down to five okay or seven because they need to save that amount of money so they may do that through kiosk they may do that through you know online ordering they may do that through you know ordering on you know kiosk inside the restaurant they may do it through automation and making hamburgers or something like that but they can't afford to just pay more per hour you know so that somebody else has a higher income if they do that what happens their cost of operations goes up and if their cost of operation this is simple economics you know I don't even understand why there is a minimum wage and I'm gonna get to that in a second so I know that's gonna upset some people by saying that but I'm gonna explain to you why I say that because minimum wage itself means nothing it doesn't mean anything all it means is that if you if you have zero skills you can go out into the market and if it's a business that qualifies I don't know what it is 20 employees or whatever they have to pay you a minimum wage but does that really help you it doesn't it doesn't help you it doesn't help you because you say well gee I got more money JR so I can buy more things but don't you understand that if you charge excuse me if a business has to pay more in minimum wage then the price of all their goods go up so there's things that you would have normally bought are gonna be more now expensive so what is the minimum wage to it just makes people feel good you know about what they're making per hour and if you up this minimum wage for everybody everything goes up you know rent goes up gas goes up everything goes up because all the people associated with all those services and products that you're gonna buy now have to build that cost into their pricing which means their pricing has to go up so you could you know the market decides what you're worth you know you could set a minimum wage at a dollar okay let's say we're gonna set it we're changing the United States to a dollar and most businesses wouldn't pay a dollar would they they wouldn't all just go down to a dollar it wouldn't happen why because they wouldn't be able to hire anybody nobody would go to work for a dollar an hour they just won't do it because they could make more money someplace else and then another business is gonna pay more than a dollar so they can get their employees to say well we'll pay two dollars and then the next business is gonna say we'll pay three dollars and guess what the market will decide with those jobs get paid they will just decide that's what the market will do if you go to San Diego right now and I think the minimum wage is $11 an hour at 12 there are so many fast food places that have signs up that say we pay $15 an hour we pay $16 an hour they're paying more than what that minimum wage is and why are they doing that because they're nice because they just like people now they're doing it because they can't find anybody they can't find anybody at the 10 or 11 or $12 an hour so they have to pay more so they can get people who are working in those 10 or $11 an hour jobs to come over to their business and work from $15 an hour the market will take care of this it's not like you know people say well we don't have this minimum wage what's gonna happen is people are gonna starve and they're not gonna have shelter not gonna have food now say no no because they they won't work for a ridiculous wage right they're gonna say I gotta go work for someone another place now the next thing this does in the market is if the minimum wage is too low or people aren't paying enough what's the one thing that every individual can do to change that I did something to change that I got more skills okay I just got more skills so instead of saying you know I want to go out in the market and I want to figure out who's gonna pay me the most amount of money what you should do is go out of the market and say what jobs what skills are necessary in the market that really really demand a high wage what isn't out there in the market that people will pay a tremendous amount of money for you know what is that skill and I'm gonna get that skill that's what I'm gonna do I'm gonna go get the skill that everybody wants in the market in that way guess what I make more money so based on whatever skills you have right now could you improve your hourly value in 2021 I mean what could you do in the market okay what could you do for yourself to make yourself more valuable what could you do not in the simple answer is improve your skills that's it if you can do something that everybody can do it's never gonna be that marketable if you can do some things that hardly anybody can do it's gonna be really really marketable okay your income is gonna go up leaps and bounds okay and you say well JR that's hard that's hard it's hard to learn new skills it's it's hard to do new things and some of these other things are very hard to do and you're right and that's why they pay more because they're hard okay easy things don't pay much okay you know if you say well you know this guy is really in great shape but you watch him at the gym and you say wow what he's doing is really hard okay and that's why there's not a lot of people in great shape because they won't do the difficult things okay and you know I forced this on myself every single day yesterday I did all my four exercises I did all my sit ups I did your leg kicks all these things I had to do it then I got on my stationary bike and I had to ride that for a half hour and I had to do all these things so that so that I could burn what was it 740 calories yesterday okay so I could do that so I could eat a decent lunch not overeat I don't want to do that but the bottom line is guys if you want to make more money in 2021 if you want to have more value in 2020 and 2021 and moving forward you need to get more skills you need to look at what really pays a ton of money in the market and if you get those skills you do those things you're gonna get more money it's gonna be that simple so I hope this helped you out a little bit today I know we had a little glitch in the beginning where I couldn't get my live stream going but I finally got it going and put in that comment section does this mean something to you do you understand what I'm telling you and yeah I'm telling you guys do some work go figure right you know if you want a channel that tells you you're gonna make money and you don't have to do anything wrong channel because what I'm gonna tell you here is gonna work you gotta work you gotta be more valuable you could be a great dad you can be a great mother and be a great brother sister whatever you want that ain't gonna earn you any more money nobody cares nobody cares about that if you're concerned about money you need to be more valuable all right let me repeat that if you're concerned about money you need to be more valuable that I don't mean as a human being I mean as a value in the market okay what is the market look at you what does the market say about you you know what is it that you're going to contribute to the market that's gonna make more money for that business that's gonna hire you or for that individual that wants you you know I have courses and we sell these courses for thousands of dollars okay and people will pay that and they pay that because they know that the value of that course is worth more than what they're gonna spend okay they can actually take that course and make more money James Breen how to decide what skill to acquire well you know it's really up to you there's so many things you can do out there James and I have one of my best friends is 87 years old by the way or Mando Oderico he's a retired attorney but just to let you know he's always learning new things always learning new things they were going to Italy a few years ago and he learned Italian okay he says I want to know Italian when I get to Italy so he learned Italian you know if you want to decide I want skill you want the first thing I would look at is what interest you what is interesting to you when I started selling online my number one interest was making money but I quickly fell into selling because that's what I've done my whole life okay and selling products online really kind of fit for me and selling ideas fit for me so that's the thing that worked for me and that may be more money but it's really about what do you want to do in nowadays you know like 85 or I think you said you were 85 is like the old 50 okay it's like nowadays people live a long long time and there's so many things you can do with your life you know and you know I'm getting on in years too but I never think of it that way I think of you know what else can I learn what else can I do how else can I make some money if that's what you want to do and you want to pick something you like doing because if you pick something you don't like doing you can make money but is it worth it I mean it really isn't worth it there's too many things out there that you probably will like doing now does that mean that every single day you're gonna get up and you're gonna be thrilled no I mean I'm sure there's some people like that but I think for the most part everybody has days where they get up and they go I don't want to do this today I don't want to do that I mean I like doing this but today I just don't feel like it you're gonna have days like that okay you're gonna have days where things go wrong I tried to do a live stream in the beginning the session today and the sound didn't work nothing worked I'm like do I want to do this okay but the point is you got to stick with it you got to push through those times that you don't like doing it okay James Brane you're just a kid JR well I appreciate that my wife wouldn't tell you that who's my wife's 23 years younger than me she wouldn't tell me I mean she probably tells me I act like a kid that's one issue I do have but bottom line guys you can increase your value in 2021 doesn't matter how old you are it doesn't matter you know male female it makes no difference whatsoever okay but make sure you understand how the market works the market's gonna work based on your skill level okay I wash dishes now for free in the kitchen okay I don't wash dishes anymore for a living because it just didn't pay that much and minimum wage is not gonna help you it's just not okay I don't care what country you're in no matter where you're at no matter how bad your country is I mean some people live in some tough countries that listen to my videos and there's still rich people in your country okay every country has rich people every country has rich people so you need to look at what those rich people are doing what are they contributing to the market what have they done you know if I had if I had to say to you you know what have you done you know for the market in the past couple years what have you contributed what what answer would you have what would that be so right about always be learning and you get paid for taking on responsibility you get paid for value like cutting a learning curve with a course yes I mean people all of my courses I will say this all of my courses that information is out there in the market you could go find it you could go try things you could try to learn things you may succeed most people don't most people on their own given their own devices go into the market and try to make money selling online and they don't do it they just don't okay more people will succeed by taking one of my courses because the stuff works it's stuff I already did you know it's it's in thousands of hours I've spent learning these things and I just share it with you could somebody take one of my courses and not make money yeah sure they could by not doing the things I tell them to do okay by just buying a course and not doing the things and there's all kinds of levels of people that buy courses you know there is the vast majority of people who buy courses online and pay for courses online that never log into the course they just don't they just don't and then the next group of people will log into a course they'll watch a little bit of it maybe one or two videos and then they drop it okay and then there's the other group that will log into a course it'll go through the whole course and get all the information and then never do anything you just go out and buy another course again and then you get down to the people who actually buy a course go through a course apply the stuff and succeed who do you want to be who do you want to be that's entirely up to you remember that fortune favors the bold and the other side of fear is freedom yes it is very very true Paul guys thank you so much for being with me today I'm gonna go ahead and get out of
