"If I danced around and played EDM, it could probably be a little better." OMG, you nailed the car channel stereotype.

Story never gets old Matt

Story never gets old, great stuff Matt.

This is some seriously inspiring stuff... You've got a truly amazing story and you tell it incredibly. Personally I'd really like to apply some of your principles to the way I go about business and even every day life. Thank you so much for sharing this.

One of the best videos in your channel. Thank you for sharing, Matt!

I've heard your story a dozen times and yet it is still awesome and inspiring. Thanks Matt

Best video I’ve seen in a while! Watched every last minute.

Thank you for this video! It really has opened up on how I want to approach things going forward. I have felt the same way for many years. I struggle with letting people in and even at work I tend to do things myself to “get it done right”. Thank you!

Just browsing older videos and noticed this one. Honestly inspiring. Can't wait to see where you are in 10 years.

Love the presentation, very insightful!

Amazing story. Thanks for sharing! Keep it up love the content

Very well done, Matt. I enjoyed watching this.

This was awesome to watch. Thanks for taking the time to video this Matt. Truly one of a kind buddy.

That's awesome Matt! It's always cool to hear your story again.

very nice matt, good that students can hear success stories like yours.

“I’ve been pronouncing their name wrong for the last 15 years” 😂

This is really inspiring, Matt. Been struggling with some mental health issues myself but just focusing on getting through today to see what tomorrow has to offer. Hopefully I'll be able to get some content out soon. Would love to show you my setup. All the best

Matt great presentation a lot of inspiration can be gained from your story.

Awesome work. I didn't think I would sit through it all, was about to go take a shower (started the water) but I ended up watching this for an hour and left the shower water running. It was really that captivating. On another note more towards your DIY projects on your GT3: Love the way you work on your car, explain why you do things a certain way and how you treat them. Only the best of the best makes its way on your car. Treating your car as an representation of yourself and how you view the importance of the driving experience. Reminds me a lot about myself. Keep up the good work!

Glad to hear about your story (especially the details 😉). Thanks for sharing!

The comment you made about working as a contractors dumpster organizer. I can relate, did that for 2 years. It teaches you a lot about hard work, I almost enjoyed the organization part. I often got yelled at for taking too long or not fitting the boards in the right way. Glad to see we can relate somehow haha! Enjoyed the talk Matt!

Love your story Matt , my family thinks I’m strange when I’d rather just hangout in my garage rather than travel the world as well . I just don’t love traveling , I like being in my own space.

Great story Matt, enjoyed to hear!

Great interview.

Thanks for sharing you story Matty. Your story is very inspiring. I admire the community you’ve built ❤️🤘

It sounds like you have OCPD, which is something I discovered I have as well. It's the personality of a person with OCD without having the disorder itself. You have a great story, and it's quite inspiring to see what you have done to overcome everything. Thank you for sharing your story.

Thanks for sharing your story, I just feel like I relate in so many ways.

Awesome Interview, Loved it!

Matt, thank you for coming out. As many times as I have heard your story, it is just as amazing as the first time. I enjoyed our dialogue following the meeting, and I am, as well as the rest of the students who came to see you speak, very appreciative of you taking your valuable time to come and speak to us. I've been a subscriber since around 800 subscribers and I am so excited for the future of this movement. As someone who is obsessed, in every sense of the word, I thank you for what you are doing. Keep up the great work! -Bennett

Good as always Matt! 👍🏼

Wow I should’ve came to your presentation

Found this channel a couple of days ago. Now I'm Obsessed.

Great job brother!!

this was great to hear. didn't think id watch it all.

I’m so mad I missed this exchange... I had no idea :(

Superb, just superb!

Great exchange. My husband was one of Matt’s 1st you tube subscribers. After listening I swear he and my husband are long lost relatives! 😂 I love the idea of putting yourself out there. Making connections and fulfilling your fullest potential in your profession are paramount to success. Doing what you love with passion and helping others to your best ability makes a you a valuable contributor to society. This video shows him giving back and helping others learn from his experiences. Keep being yourself and we will keep watching.

Matt, been following you for quite awhile. It’s refreshing to hear your level of authenticity. We have almost the exact same story and life views with family/religion but I’m slightly younger and in healthcare instead of wealth management. Always thought I was the only crazy one with my level of research and obsession of daily life until I started watching your stuff.. the fact that I was a P car owner as well made me connect even more. If you are ever in the St Pete area let me know, would love to connect. Might be at Sebring soon too with a gt4 clubsport you should check out.

Nicely done Matt!

Really great share Matt. Thank you for the share and always keeping it real, OG style. Being able to identify as a "millennial," I fully agree with what you stated regarding 'passion' and 'value'. I too believe true sustainable wealth comes from connecting your 'passion' with something that offers 'value' to others. Money is just a way for us to measure how well we've been able to do that so far. Thanks again for the share Matt. I look forward to conducting business with you when the right time comes.

This was awesome.

I agree with your assessment of Porsche being the most appropriate representation of you as a car 😉.

27:58 Wow Parker you really can't hide can you

That's me on the right in the black t-shirt. Didn't know my hair was sticking up though lol

Very interesting Matt. 👍

What a guy to do the talk!

Go Knights! Thanks for this Matt!

Loved it

I'm local, would have loved to have come to this. I have OCD so I relate and the OG story is incredible.

Awesome.

Good video Matt!

I should have drove up and watched this. I actually feel the same way about being an introvert :)

This is an epic talk. Thank you Matt! After starting over 3 youtube channels and failing, I decided to give it one more shot, this time about something I was truly passionate about, computers. (I'm passionate about computers, wealth management, and cars). And it is finally gaining a little bit of traction. I also am trying to break into the wealth management world as a Financial Advisor and Portfolio Manager as I just graduated with an Advanced Degree in Economics and am currently studying for the CFA designation. It's been very tough looking for a job, I applied to nearly every bank, investment firm, and credit union in my city (around 55 companies) and got around 20 interviews but never got an offer. And like you said, who will give a young fella (I'm 22) their life savings to invest for, so it may be time to go back to the drawing board and rethink everything. I hope one day in the near future I can fly out to Florida and personally thank you. Thank you again! This is truly inspirational. And keep doing you! (This is the first time I opened up to anyone or community......it feels really good).

I can’t remember to save my life where I saw you first featured on a big channel! Please help me out 😂 it’s killing me! You all went out & hooned on some country roads!

Matt...I'm learning from your experience. After hearing your story for the 3rd time I noticed i have been going down the path of thinking I'm better than everyone else. This mind set has been progressing over the last few years and I have been having similar symptoms of alienating myself from people. This really woke me up and I have decided to change. Thanks for helping me avoid what would have been a slippery slope of depression. Keep making more videos!

Truly an inspiring story man!

Damn wish I would have known you were doing this presentation. I did my undergrad at UCF

you're the man!

Obsessed with perfection

Fun to watch some old school videos to see how far you’ve come. No longer are you buying second hand Porsches!

Good job!! matt

Watching in 2022. Awesome story.

I could’ve went, I wished I knew he was going to UCF.

I spent a lot of money at the Timonium Bryn Mawr location when I was in my 20s,Bought almost every component Adcom made back then.

Also very validating that you said Monitor Audio is your brand of choice! It's the only speaker brand I use in my home...

I've heard your story so many times now but it's still interesting to watch and listen to again as a reminder of whats possible. One thing that really stood out to me this time though is your comments about not conforming to the usual youtube model because you don't care what other people think. For me as an introvert I'm completely the opposite to that, I don't necessarily need to conform but I'm very self conscious and care too much about what other people think so I don't share, I keep everything to myself. Is that something you've overcome or have you just not suffered with that?

Probably a year ago I made a comment "wow you truly are obsessed". I had no idea.

Should have dialed in their table and chairs. That seems terribly uncomfortable to have a discussion and interview

Great video! You gave me some feedback on my website for my business last year and it was phenomenal. You're giving some great advice for college students!

Damn you make some serious money Matt. Lol

Ironically being on this video after he has now left RJ for similar issues and is full time Obsessed Garage.

Lol “he has a little bit of a hobby” god god anyone that listens to podcast og gets this...

Do you know the last name Grummer?

shoot if i won the lottery i'm giving you the money to manage, no questions asked!

I can't wait to have a nice amount of money for you to manage lol.

Thoughts on the interviewer?

You should probably get the name of the company down before you introduce him.....
