600,000 subs, cool! Thank you all so much! Thought I'd chime in since I missed the 500k milestone. Here's the latest:
I've been having fun selling books on eBay! I saws the book Blue Ocean Strategy at a used book store for $2. I had paid $30+ for that book years ago, so I thought as a kind-of-joke, see if I could re-sell it. Turns out I sold the bloody thing for $38 within a few weeks!
I absolutely love geeking out and just being immersed in books, book stores, sorting books, organizing books, packaging books, delivery books, buying books, selling books... you get the picture.
I have a full time job in South Australia, working on the vineyard as an operator. I drive a tractor and operate some machinery. I help grapes grow by feeding them mulch, slashing grass etc.
For those wondering why I'm not doing YouTube full-time, a few years ago I lost motivation and went into fear when there was a significant drop of revenue.
For now I'm going to keep working and selling books on eBay in my spare time. I have a new life plan I'm working towards that is the most meaningful to me.
I still read and my taste of books over the years has shifted from self-improvement to self-realization and how the world operates (David Icke style books).
The most recent books I'm looking into are on Nikola Tesla, Walter Russell (as mentioned by Terrence Howard on Joe Rogan), Kirlian photography (photographing auras), animal communication, mediumship.
Some of these topics I used to pass off as nonsense but I've had so many out-of-the-ordinary experiences that I'm deeply fascinated to learn more.
The most recent book that has blown my mind is Betty Shine's Mind-to-Mind since I recognized it because David Icke mentioned her as his Medium.
The biggest challenge on my self-improvement / spiritual journey has been surrendering patterns of behaviour and beliefs. I have a massive Ego which I've only recently become aware of, and part of the path is surrendering selfish attachments - to behaviour, possessions, beliefs, self-images.
Krishnamurti and Paramahansa Yogananda continue to be big influence on my life as well.
The most recent documentary that blew me away was The Lost Century featuring Steven Greer. Amazing work.
I've thought about inviting some guests on like Steven Greer, Steven & Evan Strong (Australian Archaeologists), David Icke, Guru Pashapati (awesome find on YouTube).
I'm not sure what or when I will do to this channel, for now I will continue to work and walk the spiritual path.
What have you been up to lately?

Howdy all 🙏🏼
I have observed that the main piece of feedback on the recent tier list videos was that most of you were anticipating an objective take on the contents of each book and whether it delivered on its intended message. Not my subjective, on-the-fly opinion based on me not resonating with a book because my goals and values have changed, and my newfound preference for employing intuition over objective analysis.
My take on The Rational Male by Rollo Tomassi is a relevant example where I would have rated it a 5 for its intended message, but rated it a 2 because of its misalignment with my inclination for spiritual Truth.
I have taken your feedback onboard and changed the video titles so that future viewers will know what to expect. Thank you for voicing your constructive criticism, it can help others 🌈.
If a made another tier list video but ranked each book objectively, would this be something you are interested in watching?
