I've worked alongside Ali for 3 years as one of the first people he hired. Ali is the most generous person I've ever met, period. He's impacted so many people with his content, but on top of that, he's lifted up so many people around him to go and achieve their own creator journeys and businesses. He's the real deal guys. Forever grateful to the dude!

Doctors around the world are severely underpaid for the level of responsibility we take on and the years of learning. Happy for Ali that he got out and is enjoying life, all while still helping tons of people.

"The internet is the new land of opportunity" is such an amazing quote. That got me. Completely true

I've spent thousands of dollars on Ali's products and on the back of his advice. I hope he CONTINUES to share his numbers no matter how absurd, because it is so exciting to see the growth. and I hope he CONTINUES to sell me awesome products so I can spend tens of thousands with him. I wouldn't have started my channel if it weren't for him and that has infinite value to me :D

Stocks are pretty unstable at the moment, but if you do the right math, you should be just fine. Bloomberg and other finance media have been recording cases of folks gaining over 250k just in a matter of weeks/couple months, so I think there are alot of wealth transfer in this downtime if you know where to look.

I'm obsessed with Samir's comparison of "moving to the Internet" being a leap similar to "moving the US" a generation ago.

This is probably the most informative, insightful, enlightening, impactful interview I've watched that resonates with me as I go through a pivot. Ali is wise beyond his years. And this is why his channel continues to blow up. People sense his inner depths and wisdom.

You work for 40yrs to have $1m in your retirement, Meanwhile some people are putting just $10k in a meme coin for just few months and now they are multi millionaires. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successfulĀ inĀ life
