00:02:48.000The real world's going to hit you hard if you make mistakes, and you need to learn that there's boundaries you shouldn't cross, and you need to learn to, you know, cause and effect.
00:02:56.000I loved my upgrade from start to finish.
00:02:58.000Yeah, and it seems like it served you well.
00:03:37.000The reason the Romans melted rocks, made swords, walked in random directions, and killed anyone they could find, I mean, they didn't have Google Maps.
00:03:46.000They didn't email those guys to find out they're bad guys.
00:04:53.000And I guess that's what I'm curious about because you present, and it's authentic, I can feel it, as powerful, strong, ambitious, successful, and it's real.
00:05:03.000And I see what you're doing in the world.
00:05:04.000You're trying to teach other men to do the same.
00:05:07.000And it feels to me authentic, like it comes from a real place.
00:05:37.000You know, being strong or having to fight to protect the reason I care about being strong is so I can not only protect myself but protect people I care about.
00:05:45.000The reason I want to be rich is not only so I can buy myself stuff so I can provide for my family, but every single position of strength comes with a derivative of softness underneath it.
00:06:09.000Those are people who sit on the couch all day, watch TV, smoke weed, and do nothing or go and rob grandmas.
00:06:15.000Like, I don't consider myself an emotionally hard person.
00:06:19.000I get called a sociopath all the time and a psychopath all the time.
00:06:22.000I get called that, but I don't think people understand that there is a version of the world where you can feel things and really not give a fuck how you feel.
00:06:33.000Like, if I feel sad, it does not change how I act and it does not change the things I do.
00:06:40.000If I don't feel like going to the gym, I go to the gym.
00:06:42.000If I don't feel like working, I will still work.
00:06:45.000I lived in a world for 15 years where I didn't feel like fighting because my nose was broken, but I had to fight anyway.
00:06:51.000So a lot of these people come to me and they say, Oh, but I feel this way.
00:06:54.000I don't put a huge amount of importance on emotions.
00:06:57.000It's not that I don't feel them, it's that I don't think they have much to do with anything at all.
00:07:02.000If I wake up in a happy mood and I have a business to run and females to cater for and things to do, if I wake up in a sad mood, I have the same shit to do.
00:08:01.000You can be very satisfied with what you have.
00:08:04.000But to believe that as an adult, as a full grown man, you're going to feel constant happiness like you're a three year old child is asinine.
00:08:11.000And all these people who are constantly complaining about how they feel probably don't have a spectrum of emotions much different to mine.
00:08:17.000The difference is I don't sit around and cry about it because I don't live that kind of life.
00:08:21.000I don't have that kind of conditioning in my mind.
00:09:58.000But this idea that you can walk through life and everything's fine and you can catch depression from the sky like a disease and it strikes your brain and there's nothing you can do about it.
00:10:07.000And no matter how hard you try, you are depressed no matter what.
00:13:11.000But if I'm on a bridge and there's a barrier and I know I'm probably not going to fall, even if I feel vertigo and I'm scared, I'll still do it.
00:13:18.000But in terms of, I mean, I feel like these questions, correct me if I'm wrong, this is the kind of questions that like psychiatrists throw at people and they come at you with some.
00:14:03.000I mean, okay, in very extreme versions of math, it's not, but it's a simple version of saying two plus two is four.
00:14:08.000Whereas with this kind of stuff, you can have a man who doesn't drink because his dad's an alcoholic, and you can have a man who's an alcoholic because his dad was an alcoholic.
00:14:18.000You can have people who turned out like me because their father was strict, and you can have people who completely go off the rails because their father was strict.
00:14:24.000So, I mean, I've gone through these kind of things before, and I said this, and their answer was, That's true, but there's general rules within people.
00:15:33.000All I know for me, when I, I'll tell you what happened for me.
00:15:37.000When I went all the way into my emotions, the work that I do is very psychologically intense.
00:15:42.000It's not talk therapy, it's very physical.
00:15:44.000So, you hit things, you punch, you kick.
00:15:47.000And if you have rage and you go all the way into the rage, right, which I did, it revealed to me all of these pent up emotions that I had rage towards my mother, disappointment around my father.
00:16:02.000And I realized for me, these unconscious emotions were running my life.
00:19:11.000I don't feel like there's any part of me that has been hidden or suppressed.
00:19:15.000Just because I am, like you said, I'm very clearly a certain way, very clearly dominant, I don't think there's a part of me that's hidden or suppressed.
00:19:23.000And maybe, not maybe, in fact, I will say certainly, I've been conditioned to be this way.
00:19:27.000But I think I've been raised for exceptionalism.
00:19:31.000Since as young as I can remember, I've been raised to be exceptional.
00:27:27.000But if I'm having a hard day, I never sit and think I need to talk to this person.
00:27:31.000Even if I have like my brother and some people I'll talk to, I may be venting a little bit, but I'm certainly not looking for advice on what to do.
00:29:18.000I believe that all of my problems are going to be fixed by me, that no one else is going to wake up and give a fuck about my problems the way I'm going to give a fuck.
00:29:29.000Nobody else is going to be prepared to go through what it takes to fix them but me.
00:29:33.000If I'm in the ring getting an ass kicking, not my coach, not my corner, not my fans, no one's going to get me out of there alive but me.
00:31:08.000My best friend's going to be a man, of course.
00:31:11.000If shit really hits the fan, just like I said earlier, if I do have to turn to someone for help, Like I'm saying, I'll never ask for advice, but maybe I need help with something.
00:31:39.000I just don't see them as emotionally capable.
00:31:41.000I'm so emotionally, I don't want to use the word hard, but I'm so emotionally controlled that I don't view most men as capable, let alone women, because my number one strength in my life is my emotional control.
00:31:55.000I can be on the Titanic and it can be sinking, and I'm still going to be sitting there thinking, okay, cool.
00:32:42.000Women have a time and a place and an energy, and they're very, very valuable to a man's life.
00:32:47.000In fact, I say this all the time if you have a bad relationship with women, it's the easiest way to ruin your life as a man.
00:32:55.000You can be Jeff Bezos, the richest man in the world, lost half his net worth to some bimbo because he has a bad relationship with women.
00:33:02.000So if you struggle to, Have sex and you struggle to get a partner and you struggle to have someone who genuinely loves you, and your girl's constantly cheating on you, and all these things, you're not going to enjoy your life as a man because life as a man is about conquest, and females are part of the conquest.
00:34:51.000So, my relationship with women is I absolutely adore women, but I do not see them as my equal because I don't think they're capable like a man is.
00:34:59.000You've taken a lot of risks to get where you are now.
00:35:02.000Are there risks you need to take in the future?
00:35:04.000Like, what are the risks you need to take?
00:35:06.000Before we answer that question, let me ask you one question.
00:35:35.000I, I, look, I would, I might parse a few of the things that you said for nuance, but overall, there's an attitude and an energy that I think is correct.
00:35:45.000I think we've gone way too far the other way.
00:35:48.000I think feminism is turned into a bunch of bullshit.
00:35:52.000I think men have baited themselves out.
00:35:55.000And I think that's why women are angry and unhappy.
00:36:02.000Absolutely, my point of view, and I, you know, so I appreciate that you're saying that kind of thing out so strongly.
00:36:09.000I think men need to hear it, and I agree with you.
00:36:11.000When I bring my woman that kind of energy, she's turned on, they absolutely, yeah, because it's instinctualness, biological, and evolutionary, yeah, that's what they want, and and and you know, so you gotta be the man, you know, it's as simple as that.
00:36:25.000And uh, when I asked you that airplane question, because most of the time I ask people, come and say, Well, why does it matter?
00:36:31.000I say, You know, why it matters because you know, if it goes wrong, the man's going to be calmer.
00:36:37.000Fucking with that joystick, then the woman would.
00:36:40.000This is the harsh reality, and I don't want to die.
00:36:52.000I'm saying, well, look, in my view of things, if I had to choose, and I think if everyone's honest with themselves, they'd choose a man if they're honest.
00:39:06.000There must be a reason that you're doing it.
00:39:07.000There must be an intention behind it, other than just, you know, we live in a time where it's like it's good to have a personal brand and that's going to help you out in the long term.
00:39:16.000But beyond that, that's a really good question because there's almost two sides to this.
00:39:22.000So I've been banned from Twitter nine times.
00:39:24.000Each time I'm here, each time I'm banned, part of me is relieved.
00:42:57.000But I don't know if I'm directly philanthropic in that way.
00:43:02.000However, if someone comes to me and asks for advice, I'll always tell them what to do.
00:43:04.000I'll always say, look, this is what you should do.
00:43:06.000If I was you, I would do X, Y, Z, da, But a lot of them don't listen because it requires work and people are work averse, and that's humans.
00:43:13.000So, I get the feeling just intuitively that you care about people.
00:43:21.000You do want to inspire people for your own, not just for your own ego, not just from your own ego, because there's something inside you that you want to give.
00:43:32.000Yeah, I mean, there's something you know.
00:43:35.000There's something you learn from your experiences growing up the way you did and all the experiences you had as a fighter and what you went through.
00:43:41.000And especially in a culture that's gone completely the other way.
00:43:45.000You know, counter to discipline and masculinity, you've completely claimed that space.
00:43:50.000And so there's something to teach others.
00:44:07.000It's even like if I give to charity, if I give to charity, am I doing it because I'm a good person or am I doing it because it makes me feel good?
00:44:34.000I'm sitting there thinking, did I give, I genuinely thought, did I give him $100 for him or did I do it because it doesn't really matter to me because I got so much money and it makes me feel happy?
00:44:43.000Like, is it selfless to give to charity?
00:44:48.000So as much as I'm helping others and inspiring others, and as positive as they feel from that, Being brutally honest, am I doing it for them or for me?
00:44:56.000I'm probably still doing it for me, but it's just good all around.
00:45:00.000So that's what I mean when I say I'm not a philanthropist.
00:47:10.000And then the goal is you meet women and then you find the one you want and you have a family.
00:47:14.000And I think that's the end goal of it all.
00:47:15.000And then you get to relive all your experiences, creating a replica of yourself inside of your children.
00:47:21.000Just like I was talking about earlier about how you get to relive it all.
00:47:23.000So, I think that, yeah, there's definitely something within the human condition that makes us want to teach others and show others because it makes us feel happy inside.
00:47:32.000It makes me happy when I teach others what I know.
00:49:09.000If I'm happy with how I've lived, with what I've done, if I'm happy, then fuck them.
00:49:16.000Look, a lot of the things that really bring happiness to especially men, like I said, I'm only if you're a woman watching this, I don't know why you're watching it, but hey, if you're a woman watching this, I can't talk for you.
00:49:30.000But for a man, a lot of the things that are going to bring you happiness are the things that are ancient that would always bring you happiness the subservient women and sons that carry your name and a house that's yours and a few cows and that's yours.
00:49:46.000I think that's what's Truly biologically driven into us.
00:50:23.000Yeah, I mean, like, so I think a lot of people, especially young men, they get a weird, they look at me and they don't see the depth of my character.
00:50:35.000So they get this idea that it's like all money and pimping hoes and never love a girl and never love a bitch and drive cars.
00:50:42.000And I'm really not actually, I don't believe that's a true persona anyone has.
00:50:47.000If you're a full time tough guy, you're a part time liar.
00:50:54.000I think a lot of guys are under they don't understand that I can have women who I'm completely head over heels in love with and I adore with all my heart.
00:51:00.000But if they piss me off, I'll still tell them to fuck off and get out of my house.
00:52:20.000I'm sorry it's hurt your feelings, but I did it because I wanted to do it.
00:52:25.000So I'm not going to pretend I didn't want to do it.
00:52:27.000And I really do think that in relationships, especially with women, because I get this all the time from men, because I have a whole bunch of guys who cannot believe, like me and my long term girlfriends, and they see me posting all these other girls.
00:52:41.000They're like, surely your girl sleep with other men too.
00:52:54.000If I have a girlfriend and I go out on a night out and I fuck someone, and then she catches me or finds a text message, I'm like, oh, I don't know who she is.
00:54:24.000I'd do anything to go back, but I can't.
00:54:27.000So, all I can do is sit and thank my previous self that I spent those years doing exactly what I should have been doing instead of fucking them up.
00:54:36.000I'm so glad I used them for war, like when I was war capable.
00:55:13.000I have faith in the future Andrew to fix any problem.
00:55:16.000In a week from now, I might lose every penny and end up on the street in the cold, in the snow.
00:55:21.000But I have faith that future Andrew, within a week, is going to have a girlfriend living in her house for free, getting home cooked meals.
00:55:28.000I know that motherfucker and he's smart.
00:55:31.000So it's like, I have faith in all the past tense to future.
00:55:35.000The present, as long as Andrew Tate's around, it's gonna be fine.
00:55:39.000So, yeah, part of me is upset and misses the past, but part of me is excited for the future because when I was fighting, I didn't have all that much money.
00:55:46.000If I could go back to my 25 year old self and said, at 33, we're gonna have $2 million of supercars and live in Romania in a mansion, I'd be like, what?
00:56:09.000You just have to roll with the punches.
00:56:10.000There's a natural life arc you have to embrace.
00:56:12.000If you try and resist embracing that life arc, I think unhappiness comes.
00:56:16.000You don't want to be like one of them old ladies dressing up as a young lady going out, fucking random dudes, pretending she's 19 when she's four.
00:56:22.000They're the most miserable people of all.
00:56:24.000So you've got to kind of embrace it and realize, you know what?
00:56:27.000I can still beat up 99% of people, but there's that 1% out there I shouldn't get in the ring with anymore.
00:57:10.000I just have very, very strong principles and a very, very structured view of the world that I'm never going to abandon because I've lived 33 years with the same view of the world.
00:57:21.000I always have viewed the world the same way.
00:57:23.000I'm not going to abandon my life structure at random.
00:58:50.000So, I had, for anyone watching who doesn't know what that is, I had at one point a lot, but probably on average about 15 to 20 women working for me.
00:58:58.000And they'd sit on the internet, talk to guys online, and take money over the internet.
00:59:03.000And then I'd give them a small percent and I'd keep the rest.
00:59:30.000So, you know, so I understand things from that perspective.
00:59:32.000And from there, you learn a lot about men and women, and you learn a lot of it.
00:59:37.000Well, firstly, you need to know a lot before you can even run that kind of business.
00:59:40.000But I learned even more running that business.
00:59:42.000You learn from the customers who are in love with the girls, you learn from me dealing with my work girls, you learn from so many things about relationships and how they work.
00:59:51.000And the truth is, as a man, a woman doesn't even have to like you.
00:59:57.000She doesn't even have to love you, but if she respects you, she's always going to be around.
01:00:02.000And this is why, if I love a woman with all my heart and she goes, I want to leave, the first thing I'm going to say is, fucking pack.
01:00:10.000Because if I say anything else, she's not going to respect me.
01:01:22.000And a lot of the times they're getting screwed up is because they've tied their identity so integrally with this girl that they've lost their sense of self.
01:01:30.000You lose your sense of self, you can't have self respect.
01:01:32.000And that's why she doesn't respect you anyway.
01:01:33.000And that's why it's all going downhill.
01:01:34.000And that's why you lose her and you panic and blah, blah, blah.
01:01:37.000You've got to be about yourself first.
01:03:18.000I believe it needs to be ignored and it will go away.
01:03:21.000You don't think people need time to mourn?
01:03:23.000Like when your father died, did you need time to mourn?
01:03:26.000Absolutely, you can mourn, but you can mourn while you lift those weights, while you drive that car, and while you buy that coffee and pick those bitches.
01:03:33.000Like, so when my father, I'll give you an example.
01:03:35.000When my father died, I just moved to Romania.
01:04:30.000If he was alive, he'd slap me in the mouth for fucking up my income for the whole family and fucking up my chance of building a legacy for this family and making sure mom never has to work again to go fuck to a fucking funeral.
01:05:39.000But there could be another father who's just as strict and as disciplined who could say, You don't miss the funeral of your fucking father.
01:06:06.000Just I got to apologize for shit with the women.
01:06:08.000I do what I believe is right and I stick by my decisions.
01:06:11.000This is a binary decision, decisions made.
01:06:13.000And I don't live in a world of what ifs or I should haves or I'm not going to miss it and then regret and be mad at myself because I didn't go.
01:06:21.000No, I made a call and I stick to my call.
01:07:07.000I read somewhere that the top 1% of society and the bottom 1% of society have the same stress level.
01:07:15.000So, it's least stressful in the middle.
01:07:17.000But if you're at the very, very top of elite and you're at the very, very bottom of like shit muncher, nobody, you're both really stressed out.
01:07:24.000Because at the bottom, you have nothing to eat and shit.
01:07:26.000And at the top, if your company fucks up, you're losing billions of share value.
01:07:30.000And these people are stressed as well.
01:07:32.000So, at the very, very top, they're stressed.
01:07:33.000At the very, very bottom, they're stressed.
01:07:34.000Most people exist somewhere in the middle.
01:08:40.000The more responsibility you have, the more authority you have.
01:08:43.000Now, personally, I can't think of any motherfucker on the planet better than me at living my life.
01:08:48.000So that means I need to be in charge of everything.
01:08:50.000Which means I want to be responsible for everything, which is why, and yeah, there's a whole bunch of stress that goes with it, but I can't think of anyone else who can do it better than me.
01:08:59.000So I'm either going to deal with that stress and have all the authority to make all the calls, or I'm going to be a little pussy and be like, oh, I don't know.
01:09:07.000And I'll just hand over jobs to other people and just block it out from my mind.
01:09:11.000And then I don't get to make calls on them.
01:09:13.000It won't be done as well, but at least I don't have the stress of it.
01:10:37.000It makes me think it's something that people who don't appreciate sports and fighting don't really understand how intensely vulnerable it is for fighters to walk in the ring and fight somebody else.
01:10:58.000It doesn't matter how big of a tough guy you are, professional fighting is scary.
01:11:02.000And everyone knows this instinctually.
01:11:03.000That's the reason why the movie stars, The basketball players, everyone goes to the boxing matches because everyone knows they're the dons.
01:11:12.000Because another thing about fighting is you can win 40 fights in a row, you lose one, get knocked out once, that's it.
01:11:21.000All the other 40 you won, no one cares.
01:12:06.000It's that they can be zen enough to be like, okay, because if you let the nerves get to you, you're going to burn energy, you're going to be wild, you're going to fuck up.
01:12:13.000But these guys can be so relaxed in such a high pressure environment is insanity.
01:12:18.000I mean, I've been there and I've done it.
01:12:19.000And even I will look at someone like Tyson Fury, who came back fat as fuck, came back two years, jumped in with Deontay Wilder when AJ was too afraid.
01:12:34.000But stress tolerance is a massive part of being a successful person.
01:12:38.000You're never going to be successful without stress.
01:12:41.000People have this view I want to be a YouTuber and.
01:12:44.000And I just want to have millions and millions of dollars with no stress and have no real company and just make stupid videos and these pipe dreams.
01:12:51.000And 99% of the ways you're going to get somewhere in life is through hard work and stress and toil and bullshit.
01:16:02.000You know, and it's only people who are too cowardly to stick to their own word who hate him because they really hate themselves because they don't stick to what they fucking say.
01:16:13.000But yeah, I mean, I've got a few heroes, but besides those, really, I'm just trying to do my thing.
01:16:17.000I mean, if I'm looking for sources of inspiration, if I was ever in a difficult point and I was really looking for a source of inspiration, I'd rethink stories of me from my own life.
01:16:30.000Is there a way that you're trying to live up to your father's image of you?
01:16:37.000Or are you trying to surpass what your father did?
01:16:40.000Like, what's, is there any motivation there for you?
01:16:52.000It is my job and my duty to my last name to be exceptional.
01:16:56.000I have respect for my name and my lineage.
01:16:59.000And to do anything other than push for absolute exceptionalism would be insulting to him and my grandfather and all of my ancestors, even all the way back to cavemen days, who fought saber toothed tigers just to live long enough to fuck and pump a baby out.
01:17:15.000And I'm gonna turn up here now, 2,000 years later, and be a fat sack of shit?
01:17:22.000And I have respect for the people who brought me on this planet.
01:17:25.000It is my job to be exceptional, not only for myself, but for everyone who ever created me.
01:17:30.000If you wanna live life and go, oh, I'm average, it's okay, then you're insulting your parents and your grandparents and everyone fucking else.
01:17:37.000These people went through World War II and polio and smallpox and fucking ice ages to bring your stupid ass alive, and now you wanna sit there and be average?
01:17:46.000You want to sit there and say, I'm sad and play video games?
01:18:00.000And I don't think that is unhealthy in any regard.
01:18:03.000I am, if I ever, it never happens, but if I ever did lack motivation, the first thing I think of is my family life.
01:18:12.000If you're not going to be proud of who you are and your own last name and your ancestry, then what the fuck is the point of you even being here to eat tacos?
01:18:29.000You don't know how it feels to be suicidal.
01:18:30.000And I will say this with conviction if I was suicidal, I still wouldn't kill myself because my parents worked too hard to put me on the planet and raise me and feed me, working jobs day and night to put food in my mouth for my stupid ass to feel sad and kill myself.
01:19:45.000What a superpower these people have thrown away.
01:19:48.000Suicidal, I don't believe in any of that shit because it's just a lack of duty.
01:19:51.000So, yeah, you can talk about respect for and living up to.
01:19:56.000I live up to the point where you could depress me to the depths of earth, you could put me in a cell by myself, solitary confinement for the rest of my life.
01:20:05.000You could kill every family member I have, you chuck my arms and legs off.
01:20:08.000I still won't kill myself because I refuse.
01:20:54.000Like, when you smile, when you make a joke, like, there's, and I think that's why you get away with all this somehow, you know, and why people are drawn to you.
01:22:41.000And what happens when you reach a certain level of intellect, the highest realms, which you and I enjoy, I'm going to include you in this, you'll realize that most niceness is complete garbage anyway.
01:23:47.000Like, I don't know about you, but I'm an atheist.
01:23:51.000And I find I get a lot of meaning from my atheism.
01:23:54.000I get the same meaning from my atheism that a religious person gets from their religion.
01:23:57.000And that's that you get one spin, there's no afterlife.
01:24:01.000Not getting a go again, there's no higher meaning.
01:24:04.000You get one turn, so you may as well do whatever it takes for you to be happy and smile.
01:24:10.000Because when you're old, you're going to regret you didn't, and you don't get to do it again.
01:24:14.000So, if I want to spunk all my money on supercars, if I want to bang that girl, even though I got a girlfriend at home, if I want to do it, it doesn't matter what it is, I do whatever I want because this I believe that's how my life should be lived.
01:24:28.000Now, I don't go out my way to hurt anybody because I understand there are moral lines that shouldn't be crossed.
01:24:32.000Not that I want to hurt anybody, but my point is.
