- Could not be making this summer

tips video on a more appropriate day.

It is scorching, so hot, so hot.

(slow funky rock music)

Hello, I'm Jackson Bird and I love summer,

but it does not love me.

I get hay fever (coughing) (blowing nose).

I get sunburned so easily.

I get heatstroke and summer means warmer

weather which means more revealing clothing,

and I, like many trans people,

do not always feel A plus about my own body.

So summer, as much as I love it, can sometimes suck.

So let's talk about some ways to deal with summers,

specifically as a trans guy.

I'm talking binding, shorts, tank tops,

going to the beach, whether or not to shave your legs,

I've got tips on all of it.

But first, disclaimers.

These tips are gonna be geared towards trans guys

or any other AFAB people who want to

express themselves in masculine ways.

I'll cover some stuff that applies pre-T, some post-T,

some pre-top surgery, some pre-coming out, but remember

that everyone's bodies, comfort levels, dysphoria,

financial and living situations, are all different.

So not everything's gonna apply to everyone,

but I hope you will find some of this useful.

All right, so first, if you have started T

and this is gonna be your first summer on T

and you don't know this yet, you are about to be sweatier

and more smelly than you have ever been in your life.

I'm talking dripping sweat down the back,

feeling like you're doing hot yoga 24/7 kind of sweat.

I don't think I ever had sweat stains on the

back of my shirts before I started testosterone.

But oh, is it gonna happen to you.

So you're gonna wanna keep on top of that with extra

showers, changing clothes more frequently, deodorant.

Now especially if you're earlier on in your transition

and you haven't tried this already,

I recommend switching up to some men's deodorant.

It's just a little (sniff) musky indulgence

that can help counter the dysphoria.

Now if you have started T, again, you are going to

sweat and smell so much more than you did pre-T.

You might need to take multiple showers everyday

over the summer and really scrub that new body hair,

yes, we are going there.

And listen, I'd go so far as to recommend

a little manscaping to reduce the amount of sweat

and stench that you be getting in those places

like maybe under your arms and other places that exist.

Side note, what's a gender neutral term for manscaping?

Body hair trimming?

Why did we have to make a manly version of that phrase?

But hey, while we're on the topic of hygiene,

let's take a minute to talk about today's sponsor,

Dollar Shave Club.

So I started using Dollar Shave Club years ago

when I started testosterone and knew that I was

gonna need to shave my face but also knew that

I wasn't usually read as male, so I was kinda scared

to go out in public and buy razors from a store.

Not to mention, I had no clue how to differentiate

all the different types of razors,

and they are so dang expensive.

So I signed up for Dollar Shave Club where I can

get high quality razors sent to me every

month for just a couple of bucks.

They come straight to my door in a discreet package

so I don't have to face any dysphoria at the store.

Plus, I'm not gonna lie, in those early days I felt

super manly belonging to a men's subscription service.

I'm not making this up for the ad.

I have actually been a Dollar Shave Club customer for years.

And that is actually why I signed up for it.

But I recently found out they don't just sell razors.

They sell toothpaste, body wash, hairstyling products,

not to mention all the accessories that you for

shaving like shave butter and post-shave cream,

post-shave serum, I like that one, it's like a,

like spritz it on and you feel all nice and cool.

And I've been using the shave butter ever since

I started shaving and I have never looked back.

Makes your skin feel smoother and healthier

than like normal shaving cream does.

And it's transparent, so you can see if you are

about to shave off a pimple or a mole,

which is a real obstacle for me.

Right now you can try out a bunch

of their products for just $5.

They're basically giving away their

daily essentials starter set.

For just $5 and free shipping, by the way.

New members will get three trial size versions

of Dollar Shave Club's most popular products,

plus the executive razor.

Look at the quality of this razor, feel the weight on that.

So in that first box you get some of that

shave butter that I was talking about,

you'll get some body wash so you can smell clean

and masculine like I was mentioning before.

You also get a handful of these butt wipes,

One Wipe Charlies, which, awkward to talk about,

but remember what I was saying about how much

more you're gonna smell on your first summer of T?

Use these, get rid of your stank.

And finally, in that first box you're gonna get

your executive razor and a full box of cartridges.

And this isn't their selling point,

but I love that every box has a new pun on it.

I mean, that just helps.

So you get four razors in this first box and then after

that replacement razors are a couple of bucks a month.

And again, you can get all of that in this

first box for just $5, which frankly blows my mind.

You can sign up at dollarshaveclub.com/jacksonbird.

I will put a link down in the description box,

and again that is dollarshaveclub.com/jacksonbird.

Thank you so much to Dollar Shave Club for

sponsoring today's video and for giving all of us

the gift of grooming confidence.

Let's move on to another summer challenge, binding.

Binding sucks during summertime.

I mean, you've got this thick fabric compressing

your core and adding an extra layer to the heat.

It's not gonna be fun no matter what,

but here are some things that helped me over the years.

First of all, if you've got any older binders that

are maybe a little looser and thinner laying around,

wear those as often as you can.

I know they're probably not gonna bind as well,

but all of summer is just give and take on your

dysphoria versus not passing out of heatstroke.

Also, if you usually wear the full length binders

that help bind your hips, maybe try going for the shorter

ones on Underworks, they're called tri-top.

The ones that just kinda stop like

right at the bottom of your ribs.

Also, take your binder off even more than usual.

I was totally guilty of being too dysphoric

even when I was home alone by myself,

I would keep my binder on because I just could not stand it.

But during summertime, when it's as hot as it

is in this apartment right now, oh my gosh,

I would have that binder off.

I'd just be walking around shirtless if I were home alone.

And if you're out and about,

take little bathroom breaks in the stalls,

just like take it all off and breathe for a couple

of minutes if you can get it off because it's

so hot the binder's gonna be sticking to your skin,

it's gonna do that thing where it rolls up

and then you can't even grab it.

Uh, binding is the worst.

On more of a mental, emotional note,

you can try to focus some of your discomfort into making

top surgery plans and fundraising if top surgery is

something that you're interested in down the line.

Summer of 2015 was when I got fed up and put

all of my top surgery plans into motion because

I could not take another summer in a binder.

And as we all know, a big part of summer is sleeveless-ness

and tank tops, which don't play well with binders.

It can be pretty tough to find a tank top

that will cover the binder straps or how far

it'll come up under your arms or like the neckline.

So generally look for tank tops with higher

necklines and wider straps that go

almost to the end of your shoulder,

which would have been dress code at my high school.

One thing I started doing is to just buy

t-shirts that I liked or take old t-shirts I

had and just cut the sleeves off.

That way you can control the measurements.

You can literally measure it up against your binder

so that it is definitely going to be covering your binder,

if that is something that you care about.

Some people rock the binder look.

You know, if you do the cut off t-shirt thing not

only is it gonna cover your binder,

you also get the bonus of looking super punk rock.

And before we move on,

just the usual disclaimer about binding safely,

please use an official binder from one of the reputable

companies like Underworks or gc2b or FLAVNT.

Please don't use any DIY methods,

those are things that can seriously hurt your

ribs or your lungs, sometimes permanently,

sometimes so badly that you aren't even eligible for

top surgery down the line, so just don't do it.

If you're having trouble getting

your hands on an official binder,

there are tons of scholarship programs and stuff out there.

That's a whole other video that I could make,

but there's already tons of them,

so just Google it, you'll get the info.

All right, now let's talk about the beach.

So I love the beach, I love swimming, but yes,

when you can't take your shirt off yet it is not fun.

It never stopped me from actually swimming,

but it always made me miserable.

Your main options are swim shirts,

which some people call rash guards,

or tank tops with or without a binder

or a sports bra underneath, or a swim binder.

If you go that route, I definitely recommmend

FLAVNT's swimwear, they come in a whole spectrum

of skin colors and are just made so well and beautifully.

I tried all of these different options at different times.

I personally preferred the old

binder under a tank top option.

Didn't look the sexiest, didn't dry the quickest

after being in water, but for whatever reason,

it's what made me feel the most comfortable,

and that ultimately is what is most important.

I'm also gonna link to Ashley

Wylde's video on nonbinary swimwear.

It has some practical tips as

well as some philosophic advice.

If you have had top surgery and have visible scars,

don't forget to be slathering those scars in

tons of sunscreen and don't be staying shirtless

the whole time if it's your first year out.

Or maybe ever, the sun is terrible.

And if people ask about the scars,

honestly, you should just say, it's personal.

It's part of your medical history and you don't wanna share.

Unless you do want to share,

could be a good teaching moment.

Or you could try on a few of these lines.

Bro, what are those scars from?

Yeah, I fought a shark.

What, oh my God, how did those get there?

Trust me, you do not wanna get on a dolphin's bad side.

These, you should see the other guy.

And then after the aliens beamed me back down to my house.

I had heart surgery.

On both sides?

I'm a time lord?

Now, a quick note on swim trunks.

Ty Turner discovered a great hack a couple of years

ago which is that board shorts without the elastic

in the waistband make your hips look smaller.

It's a miracle.

I think it's because the elastic

isn't there to like squeeze your body.

But, I have found it difficult to, one,

find this type of board short at all.

Maybe it's a northeast problem.

And two, when I do find them,

to find them with a short enough inseam.

Board shorts are a style of short that are

usually longer and long shorts on short guys

tends to just look like normal pants, JNCO shorts,

capris, it just doesn't look good.

So actually, let's talk about shorts for a minute.

A lot of trans masculine people are shorter

than cisgender guys and that means that a lot

of men's shorts are too long for us and look silly.

Ideally, you want your shorts to fall above your knee.

Not only is that just like the rule of fashion

for grown-up people and people wanting to look

more grown-up, but it will also make you look taller.

If you're wearing shorts that go longer than

your knees it makes your whole frame look shorter.

It's one of those optical illusions just like

how horizontal stripes make you look wider.

So you wanna do is look for the shortest

inseam that a store has available.

And I will say that more fashion forward stores

like H&M are going to generally sell shorter

shorts and swim trunks than say, American Eagle,

which caters to teenage boys,

or Costco, which caters to my dad.

And if you can't find any shorts that are short enough,

you can take the DIY approach again.

Hem them yourself.

It's not that hard to pick up a sewing kit

at any grocery store and look up some YouTube tutorials

on how to sew, if you don't know how to sew,

and then how to hem.

I will even link in the description box to my

favorite tutorial on how to hem things while

keeping the factory seam so no one will know

that you ever tailored your clothes.

Or forget the hemming and just cut your shorts

the length you want and let the threads ravel

because jorts are are totally still in, right?

Am I right, jorts are in, right?

Cut off shorts is that not in anymore?

I have no idea.

And since we are talking about shorts,

we've gotta talk about shaving your legs.

So most trans masculine people like to

grow out their leg hair, but if you're not out yet,

it can be really tough to decide should you shave

your legs in front of people who don't know that

you're trans, especially maybe parents and family,

or do you keep that leg hair because

shaving is really dysphoric for you,

or because, let's face it, when you're not on T

it can take a really long time to

build up that luscious leg hair forest,

and so shaving it would just seem like such a waste.

I don't have a great answer here.

Some suggestions I have would be comprising with yourself.

Say, okay, I'll only have to shave up to

my knee and wear some longer shorts.

Or if you are gonna stick with pants so that

you don't have to shave, at least get some light linen

or some other type of light fabric pants so that you

aren't totally dying from the heat in your jeans.

Or you can just come with a hella good excuse

about why you're not shaving your legs.

I recommend just mentioning the patriarchy.

That always works.

And now let's start wrapping up with just a

couple more miscellaneous summer tips.

Number one, baseball hats are great.

They'll keep you shaded, which is important if you

are as translucently pale as I am.

Or you know, some days when your hair is doing

the thing or you feel like you're getting read

as a girl more often and you don't know why,

so just put on a baseball hat and grunt a lot.

Passing tips from Jackson Bird.

Next and probably the most important tip I can give

you for the summer, hydrate, stay hydrated.

I mean, this is important for everyone,

but especially if you're gonna be wearing more

clothes than seasonally appropriate, if you're binding,

whatever you're doing where you're probably

not dressing as coolly as you should.

Make sure you are hydrating.

The other thing if you're not dressing as coolly

and seasonally appropriate as you should be,

make friends with goths.

I'm serious, they always know where the shade is

and like where the coolest air is 'cause they're

always dressed in so many layers of black.

They'll give you all the tips you need for cooling down.

And for real, the more queer and trans friends

that you can make, the better because they'll

understand what you're going through and you

can relax a little bit around them.

You don't have to worry about what body hair

you're shaving or if you need to take your binder off

for awhile, they'll be chill about it.

And if you do need to stay indoors and not

participate in as many outside activities,

or if you need to turn people down for certain things

that would make you feel dysphoric, that's okay.

And I would also hope that you're not missing out

on too many experiences because of dysphoria.

It's just gonna happen sometimes,

but if it becomes a habit for like years and years,

I would hope that you find a way to reach out to

a support group or a therapist or community center,

someone that can help you find the change that you

need to be able to live your life to the fullest.

'Cause we all deserve to enjoy summer.

And summer is always gonna be tough for anyone who doesn't

look exactly like society tells us we're supposed to look.

And you know what, even they are probably gonna

face street harassment, so summer just sucks for everyone.

But it is especially hard for trans people,

so just know that we're all in this together.

We've all been there or are there

and we've all got each other's backs.

commiserate, and encourage each other.

Save & Organize Clips with the New Favorites Feature! | Gemiini - Duration: 5:17.

Hello and welcome to today's video.

My name is Johnathan and I'm a member of the Script Writing team at Gemiini.

Today I'm excited to talk about the addition of "Favorites" to the Gemiini Clip library.

With Favorites, you can now add any clip from the Gemiini library to uniquely named folders

making it easy to organize clips you want to use in future assignments.

With the Favorites feature you can bookmark clips that you don't want to use now but that

you want to save for use in a future assignment or you can save clips that you use frequently

so that you don't have to find them everytime you open the clip library.

If you're a teacher or therapist and you manage multiple student accounts, you can create

a folder for each student where you can save clips specific to each student's different goals.

You can create your own library of high-interest and motivational clips by saving your student's

favorite clips to a specific folder and absolutely anything else you can think of.

The possibilities are endless and as always we encourage experimentation.

The use your "Favorites" folder, click "My Videos"

then "Build New Video - Complete Library Access"

Your Favorites folder can be accessed in the "My Clips" section of the sidebar

- right here.

When you want to save a clip from the library as a favorite, click on the blue star in the

clip details next to the "Add" button

- right here.

Navigate to the folder where you'd like to save the clip.

You can rename or create folders by choosing one of these options from the bottom modal.

I'm going to create a new folder.

And we're going to call this "My Folder"

and I'll click "Create" to create the folder.

Select the folder where you want to save your clip.

When you're ready, click "Add Favorite" to save.

Alternatively, you can save a clip to your Favorites folder by clicking it and dragging

it from the library to the folder of your choice.

Make sure you have your Favorites folder open first.

And drop it in "My Folder".

If you want to view the clips that are saved in a specific folder, scroll to the "Favorites"

section of the "My Clips" menu - right here - and click on the small folder icon next

to the name of the folder to show or hide its subfolders, like so.

And click the name of the folder to show its contents in the library

- right here.

Now clips you save as Favorites are marked by a solid blue star that looks like this.

To remove a clip from a folder, open the folder in the library,

like this.

Click on the blue star next to the clip that you'd like to remove,

and click "Remove Favorite" to remove this favorite from this folder.

Optionally, if you choose "Save to Folder" this will open the view of your folders and

it will allow you to duplicate the clip into a different location but I want to remove

this so I'm going to click "Remove Favorite".

Now to create, delete, or rename folders open the folder management modal by clicking on

the pencil icon next to "Favorites" in the "My Clips" section of the sidebar.

This icon right here.

To create a new folder, navigate to the location you'd like the new folder to exist.

I'm going to put mine in "Students".

When you're ready, click "New Folder" and give the new folder a name.

I'm going to create a new folder for "MStudent".

When you're ready to save, click the orange "Create" button.

To rename a folder, select the folder you want to rename

and click "Rename Folder.

Give the folder a new name and click the orange "Rename" button.

To delete a folder, select the folder you want to delete and click "Delete Folder".

Click "Delete" to confirm or "Cancel" if you change your mind.

Remember - deleting a folder will remove all of its contents from your directory of favorite

clips, including any clips you've saved to its subfolders.

And finally, to move a folder you want to locate the folder that you'd like to move,

click on it and hold down the mouse button and drag it to a new location.

Moving a folder will move its subfolders and all of their contents to the new destination.

with one of our Product Specialists.

market when they are surfing the net before they've moved on to the next

result in the search results list, so you need to do what you can to avoid that

from happening. In today's AMPLiFY! Businessí eTip Show i'm going to share

with you three tips on what you need to do on how to make your blog more SEO

optimized so the search engines will find them and your target audience will

want to read them. Hi I'm Susan Friesen web specialist, digital and business marketing

consultant with eVision Media and I bring you these eTips so you don't

have to try and figure out the complicated digital marketing landscape

all by yourself. So let's talk about SEO. SEO stands for Search Engine

Optimization and it is one of the most important factors every blogger must pay

attention to in order to get good rankings in those search engines. So

higher rankings not only depend on your blog theme and what you're writing for,

making sure that your target market is actually looking for that particular

topic to write about, but it's also in the search engine optimized keywords

that are in your blog title. So having keywords in your post helps a lot to get

better search engine rankings but another thing to consider is what the

blog title says in order to get ideal click throughs so your target market

goes to read those posts. So the first thing that you want to take into

consideration is to focus on one or two long-tail keywords that match the intent

of your ideal target market and the theme of that article. In order to do

this you can use Google's search console in Google's free search console contains

a section called Search analytics report. this report

helps you analyze click-throughs from Google searches and it's useful to

determine which keywords people are using to find your blog content.

now the second thing that you want to pay attention to is using main target

keywords in your post title. so once you have figured out what keywords to use,

those longtail keywords, you want to make sure that you incorporate them into your

blog title because that is what Google is looking for. but it's also what your

target market is looking for in order to find answers to the questions that they

have been searching into that search engine. and the number three tip I can

share with you on how to make sure that your blog posts actually get read and

found in the search engines is to use a little trick that a lot of marketers use,

which is to use numbers in your title. you can use a number either in the

prefix or the suffix of your blog title and believe it or not that actually

helps with your click-through ranking of your blog post. as an example that's what

I used for this title today as well. And so there you have it - three quick and

easy tips on how to improve the rankings for your blog post in order for not only

the search engines to pick it up and raise your rankings in the search engine

results but also to make sure that your target market is finding your blog posts

and actually clicking to read that blog post. So use those three strategies for

the next blog post that you write. Now I know that online marketing and social

media can be very overwhelming at times. It's hard to know what to say when to

say it how to say it and all that fun stuff.

ALL Fortnite: Survive The Storm Banner Icons and how to get them. - Duration: 3:15.

Hey, my name is iPugsieHD, and in this specific video

we're gonna be going over all the banner icons which are basically like your little player icon in game for Fortnite,

that aren't necessarily from Seasons but actually quite exclusive-r - if that makes sense.

So getting straight into it, so the first one we have is from playing the game in alpha state.

The second one we have is the Paragon banner, which you get from owning the founders edition of Paragon.

The third is (Epic Games) newsletter,

so signing up for the newsletter would get you this. Now the few following ones after this are basically once from 'Survive The Storm' in

different events they had. So first it went to Stonewood, Plankerton then Canny Valley (etc)

You got this from completing Stonewood 'Survive The Storm'.

You got this one from completing Plankton's 'Survive The Storm' and you got the third and final from completing Canny Valley

'Survive The Storm'.

Now for those last three, I don't believe they do them anymore

so unfortunately

you won't get them if you didn't already get them.

But moving on to the next ones which have been quite recent and others 'Survive The Storm's where we had exclusive maps.

Now following one was from completing 'Survive The Storm' (winter) on easy.

The next one is from completing 'Survive The Storm' (winter) on medium.

The next one and final is from completing 'Survive The Storm' (winter) on hard.

So again

if any of those catch your eye, you could ask Epic Games if you really wanted to and

maybe they'd be nice and give it to you

but unless it comes back around then you don't really have a chance on getting this.

Now the next one's off the most recent survive the storm which was on a desert map,

and the first one is obviously the easy one, which is from 'Survive The Storm' (desert). The next one is obviously medium and

obviously when we go on to the third - it's going to be for the Hard difficulty of that 'Survive The Storm' mission.

Now again

unless it comes back around then we don't really have a chance on getting it unless you really, really, really want to ask Epic Games.

Again, these can come back around at any point like the winter one did for example,

but just don't put your hopes to high up on it. Now. These aren't all of the banners

These are just the ones that are from 'Survive The Storm' as well as other 'Save The World' events,

but there are tons more such as the collaborations with YouTubers

they have tons of banners of them or the editions or different editions of Fortnite.

I probably will cover this up in the future

but for now

we haven't really covered it

simply because I need to know if

Copyright issues going to be a problem because obviously these are people's logos if I were to make a video on it.

Regardless, I hope you enjoyed this specific video and you kind of got helped with what kind of banner if you wanted a specific

one from this that you know how to get it if ever comes around

or if you wanted to ask Epic then you can do so,

sometimes they are like generous and you can give them a big ol hug and sometimes they are BIG GRIZZLY BEARS.

Regardless, I hope you enjoyed this video and again found it helpful

I hope you are having a fantastic day and this is iPugsieHD, signing out.

How does your work in technology fulfill The Great Commission? | The Stone Table - Duration: 1:38.

I was racing the church and I always heard about missions and that to me looked like

a couple coming over from Africa with their family and they're kind of weird and they like to speak at

Church, and then we'd give them money. That

was my view of missions and that was my view of the top at the top kind of

people in the church. Like the best of the best were either a pastor or missionary, and that missionary was an overseas warrior, right?

And so that's kind of the idea I had in my head even going into college of what missions looked like

and what missionary looked like and so?

When Jesus became Lord of my life in college, again,

that was my view of like success and glorifying God to the max was missions and being a missionary.

How that change is through a lot of conversations, a lot of books, a lot of stuff from The Stone Table

that really remind me that God created work, work's beautiful, and we use it to glorify him. God was the creator of work and

he worked, and he's a creative God, and

He's intended us for for us to work and

glorify him in that. Most people aren't

gonna, be called to traditional missions but we're all missionaries in the workplace. I know that sounds corny, but it's true.

We're all called to to glorify God and be intentional with the way we live,

wherever we're at. Whether that's in the mission field, quintessential

mission field, or at Shopify.

Addiction | Do you have one? - Duration: 3:53.

today we're going to talk about addiction more than just the usual

suspects most of the time when we talk about addiction it's in terms of drug

addiction alcohol abuse or maybe even gambling but could addiction go way

beyond that I'm Angela Howard and I am passionate

about breaking the stigma of mental illness among fellow Christians I'm here

to help you live a more purposeful life in your relationship with God and with

one another don't forget to subscribe to my youtube channel so that you don't

miss out on any of the upcoming new content according to Webster's

dictionary you're an addict when you devote or surrender yourselves

to something habitually or obsessively it would be so easy for me to just

mention alcohol addiction drug addiction pornography or gambling and there may be

some of us who struggle with those addictions but if we don't struggle with

that we can you know watch this video and leave pretty you know feeling pretty

good about ourselves but the truth is really in the definition addiction is

anything that we devote or surrender ourselves to habitually or maybe even

obsessively so what do you do what do you turn to when you're feeling

overwhelmed or stressed or fearful shopping gossiping lying maybe it's a

codependent relationship are you binge watching TV or obsessively checking your

social media account maybe it's control or criticism or an

obsession with your appearance or overwork

maybe it's perfectionism for you or maybe you're just addicted to

perfectionism religion or self-pity you know if you didn't find yourself

somewhere on that list and I don't know if you're really being honest and

truthful with where you're at in your life where do you find yourself turning

in times of crisis instead of turning to God

psychiatrists Gerald may writes that this classic spiritual term for this

compulsive condition is called attachment the word comes from old

Europe Kian roots meaning nailed to we consider

unhealthy attachments to be addictions but the truth is is that we all have

unhealthy attachments addictions and even idols in our life but most of the

time were not really wanting to be honest with ourselves and we try to deny

it so I'll be honest with you one of the most difficult things that I deal with

in my life is my addiction to control every addiction has different

consequences spiritually emotionally even physically and also relationally so

we would love to kind of you know try to compartmentalize those addictions and

not realize that they do affect every part of our life we would like to feel

like we could really you know separate that off into a little corner but God

created us created us to be integrated beings my challenge to you today is to

really name your addiction and then tell someone you can't name what your denies

in 5:16 says confess your sins to one another and pray for one another that

you and he'll have you ever thought of

addiction in terms of what you're surrendering yourself to I'd love to

hear from you in the comments below please subscribe for more videos I'll be

sharing some great tips and encouragement whether you're struggling

with a mental illness or have a loved one who does I'll see you next time

Stock Market Investing for Beginners 📈 5 Things You Much Know - Duration: 11:30.

5 of the most essential things you need to know in order to make money in the stock market…

coming up!

Welcome, I'm so glad you're here.

Through this channel, it's my goal to help you build your rapidly-growing, highly-diversified

net worth, one video at a time.

And if you'd like to use the stock market to help you get there (I think that's a

great idea, by the way), this is a great place to start.

Of all the tips and facts that I could give you - and will give you overtime on this channel

- I pulled out five of (what I think are) the most important when you're getting started.

These are five things… well, two facts, two tips, and one general

but essential-to-comprehend observation… ...five things that you must know before investing.

#1 - Buy Low and Sell High

Now, hold up, don't turn this off…

I know that's super generic.

And I hate saying it because at this point it's so cliche that most people gloss over

the significance.

But this isn't just something that you need to know.

I know - I'm sure - you already know this.

The reason it's important to keep top of mind is because, although everyone knows this

aphorism, almost no one adheres to it.

That's why according to Dalbar the average investor consistently and dramatically underperforms

the market.

That's why more money flows into the stock market at its height - like the peak of the

dot-com bubble, you know, right before the crash - that's when more money from everyday

investors was pouring in… and sadly, that's why the opposite is also true.

Statistically, more money is being pulled out of the market at the trough, the very

bottom - you know, the time that would actually be the best to be pouring your money back

in, more people are exiting at that point.

Despite our awareness… on average, as a group, we're all buying high and selling

low… so you can't afford to just gloss over this point.

What you need to get out of it is: before you start (or as you try to get better at)

investing or trading, find ways ahead of time, to make this happen.

There is a lot to this, and I'll be helping you explore it and improve your ability here

on this channel.

But for example this means, don't just wait to see what happens or to see how you perform.

It means taking some time to prepare yourself mentally before you take a position - and

understanding the extreme importance of that exercise.

Having rules in place before you trade, as opposed to just "winging it."

The list goes on.

Bottomline: you have to internalize the significance of Buy Low, Sell High

take active measures to set yourself up for success.

Again, if you want help with all that, just click the subscribe button, click the notification

bell, and stay tuned, cause we're gonna get you there!

#2 - You need to understand how taxes can affect your trading returns.

The more you trade, the more likely it is that you'll run into a situation that you

really should understand what happens from a tax perspective if you own a stock for more

or less than one year.

Sometimes this tax rule has no bearing on my trading decision.

But the closer I am to that year mark, the more important it becomes.

The rule is relatively simple.

Gains from stocks held for a year or more are taxed as long-term capital gains, which

is fine, at least for now (and most of the time) that rate is much lower than the alternative

- today, depending on your income tax bracket, it'd be somewhere between 0 and 20%.

It's when you realize gains from the sale of a stock that you've held less than one

year that you should really be concerned.

At that point, the gains are taxed as ordinary income - which, today, could be almost 40%.

This doesn't mean you should absolutely always hold your stocks for over 1 year.

It's just something you should be aware of, especially if its month 11 and you feel

like it might be time to sell.

Would it hurt you to stay put for another month?

Maybe so, maybe not?

It's also why, when I do my research seeking 100%+ opportunities, I'm okay with the 1-

to 2-year time horizon I mention in this video.

I'm not really looking for quick wins; (I'll take them if I get them, but) partly due to

the difference in taxation, it's harder to win long term that way.

#3 - The price per share of a company's stock has no bearing on its actual value.

This may be a basic review for you, but remember, this is a video specifically for beginners

to the stock market.

And when you are just getting started, this is not immediately obvious.

Just because Amazon's share price is around $1,500 and Apple's share price is only around

$150, that doesn't mean Amazon as a company is worth 10 times more than Apple.

No.

In fact, as of this recording, Apple is worth about $150B more than Amazon.

The second factor in a market value calculation is the number of shares outstanding.

Multiply the price per share by the number of shares and then you'll know the actual

value of a company - which is pretty important when you're trying to determine whether

or not a company is undervalued…

Some companies like to split their stock into more shares as the price per share gets too

high.

For example, a $100MM company with a $100 share price and 1MM shares outstanding might

decide to split all their shares in two, resulting in 2MM total shares now each with a price

of $50.

The total value of the company is still $100MM.

The total value of all the shares you own is still the same.

The only thing that changed is you now have twice as many shares and they're all worth

half as much.

Walmart is a great example of this.

They want their shares to be perceived as affordable - always low prices, that's what

they're all about, right?

- so any time the share price gets too high, they'll split to make it seem cheaper.

Warren Buffett's company, Berkshire Hathaway, on the other hand, refuses to split its main

shares.

So today, they're each worth around $300,000.

#4 - If you want to be successful, you will have to learn to research.

As we discuss in this video, if you aren't doing research yourself, at best, you're

speculating, ...at worst, you're gambling.

If you buy and sell stocks or some other investment vehicle, you should watch that video and see

if you are indeed investing or if you're actually speculating… it's an important

distinction that you should understand.

And unfortunately, I believe most people are in fact speculating when they think they're

investing.

To be successful long-term in the stock market, you will need to learn to research.

You'll need to learn what numbers and what metrics actually matter.

You'll probably want to find some tools to help you with the research process.

I made a video of my favorite two stock research tools right here - these are my secret weapons

- well, they were secret… now you can just watch the video…

You'll need to learn to review company financial statements.

Boring, I know.

But it's through doing these things - these things that most people are actually not doing

because it can be hard because it can be boring - it's by doing those things that you can

actually be successful.

There is so much to learn about researching stocks.

I'll be honest with you, I've been doing this seriously for more than a decade and

I'm still learning!

Through this channel, I will do my best to provide you with everything you need to achieve

your stock selection goals.

So if you're serious about this, and now understand the critical importance of research,

then I hope you'll stick around.

I'm building out a fundamental research playlist - you can get there by clicking on

this card (if you're watching somewhere you can see those - just click that information

"i" at the top of the screen) or you'll find it linked out in the description below.

I'm also putting together a Stock Research Resource Guide - all the tools I use in the

discovery process, from blank slate to fully developed investment thesis.

Depending on when you're watching this, that may or may not be done yet.

If a guide like that would help you, just go to StockResearchGuide.com where you can

download it or get on the list to get it first once it's done.

Finally, #5 - if you want to be successful in the stock market, you're going to have

to learn to tune out the noise.

I'm not talking about your financial education.

You should listen and read things that increase your knowledge and understanding of how things

work.

But you should tune out that "financial news" as entertainment genre…

I'll admit, it can be hard to differentiate.

And as I confess in this video, when I first started trading pretty much full time, I made

a lot of mistakes because I couldn't recognize that difference.

If you're interested in learning more about why this is so important and how to differentiate

and how to actually successfully ignore it, I wrote a blog article that you might find

interesting.

I'll link to it in the description, just look for the link by this timestamp.

Or, as with almost all of these subjects, we'll be exploring all those questions in

more depth here on this channel.

So just stay tuned.

Now I want to hear from you: Let me know in the comments below: which of these points

would you like to explore in more depth?

If you found this video helpful, leave a like, share it with your friends and family.

net worth, just click here to subscribe and then click the notification bell - that way

I've also created a Where & How to Start Trading playlist just for you.

7 Ways to get the Perfect Shave - Duration: 4:50.

- Hi, I'm Trina Felber,

and today I have seven tips for the perfect shave.

There's no better feeling

than a freshly shaved face right ladies?

No, I'm not talking about you,

I'm talkin' about your guy's face.

If your man is lookin' to get the perfect shave,

I have seven tips that you can share with him.

So long red irritated skin, and hello nice smooth shave.

The first tip is to stay sharp.

How often does your husband swap out his dull razor?

If he's using cheap dull blades,

he's never gonna get a close shave.

A good rule of thumb is to change your razor

after every 10 shaves.

This will ensure that the blade stays super sharp.

A dull blade will only leave him

with irritated skin and an uneven shave.

Before shaving, you'll also wanna check out

how clean the blades are.

Hair, dirt, and other debris can

get caught between the blades.

Remember, when you shave, not only are you getting rid

of hair, you're also scraping

off the top layer of your skin.

The second tip is to shave with the grain.

Shave by following the natural way your facial hair grows.

Shave with the grain, not against it.

Figuring out which way the hair grows

can be tricky at first, unlike other parts of the body,

facial hair doesn't grow in the same direction,

and it doesn't have the same thickness throughout.

So, don't shave for a couple of days

so you can get a better notice on how it's growing in.

You'll probably immediately notice that the hair

on the chin is the thickest,

that means this area needs the most time

to soak in the water and shaving cream.

Tip three, is to soften with water.

Tired of razor burn or irritated skin after shaving?

Do you find that even after you shave

you still have a hint of a five o'clock shadow?

The trick is to wet your face hair before shaving.

Hair is able to absorb a lot of moisture

and the more moisture that the hair has absorbed,

the weaker it becomes, so before you even pick up

your razor, put warm water on your face.

Otherwise, expect the effects of a dry shave.

Ouch.

Number four, go natural with your shaving cream.

For most men, store bought shaving cream

is a convenient option, but many of these shaving creams

have harmful ingredients that can irritate your skin.

Common toxic ingredients found in shaving cream

include fragrance, isopentane, triethylamine,

palmitic acid, and sulfates.

For a safer shave, use a cream made

with all natural ingredients, such as,

Shea butter and eucalyptus oil.

This will help you get a better shave

and you'll feel moisturized and fresh afterwards.

The fifth tip is to use a shaving brush.

A shaving brush is one of those things that

you don't think you need until you start using it.

This nifty little tool helps to lift the hair

so you can get a better and closer shave.

The brush also helps to apply and lather your cream.

The sixth tip is to wash it all way.

Don't think you can just shave and call it a day.

The next step is to actually wash your face,

and no a rinse won't do it.

Use an all natural face wash to remove any traces

of shaving cream, hair, dead skin, and dirt.

Once your face is clean, pat it with cool water

to close your pores, this helps to protect

your newly exposed layer of skin.

The seventh tip is to lock in moisture.

I know moisturizing doesn't exactly scream manliness

and yet it's the final step that you have to take.

Using a moisturizer will help work wonders for your skin,

helping to soften it and supple it.

An easy moisturizer to make at home

is to mix coconut oil and sunflower oil.

This combo is loaded with vitamin E

to help you make your skin more youthful,

and it won't leave you feeling greasy.

If you want to learn more about shaving

or all natural skincare, check out thehealthyme.com.

And if your man needs some natural shaving cream

and products, we've got everything

he needs at primallifeorganics.com.

Thanks for watching!

how to create your healthy self.

See ya next time.

Best Shows at Disney World - Duration: 7:45.

what are the best indoor shows at Walt Disney World

hi my name is Alyssa Layne and welcome to my channel today I am ranking the best

indoor shows at the Walt Disney World Resort at number 14 is both reflections

of China and O Canada from the World Showcase in Epcot now these are both

circle vision 3d films about their respective nations and the videos are

like a cross between a documentary and a travel ad which is a lot of fun to watch

the show buildings are dark and well air-conditioned but the biggest drawback

about these shows is that you have to stand for the duration of the show and

if I'm gonna stop on a park day and go inside and watch the show I want the

chance to sit down while doing it next up is country Bear Jamboree in the Magic

Kingdom now the only reason this isn't higher on my list is how dated it is now

that is almost an attractor for me personally I tend to like a lot of the

older attractions that exist but some people don't and a lot of people don't

enjoy the music either so this show can be hit or miss with different guests

sharing number 12 is the American adventure and impressions de France

from Epcot now these are very similar movies to those I talked about at the

number 14 slot but you get to sit down in a traditional theater for both these

shows also the American adventure recently got some pretty significant

renovations which you can learn about in this video right here in the corner

which is also linked in the description box below this video the only animal

kingdom show is it's tough to be a bug now I love this attraction I loved the

film the animatronics I even loved the queue which is in the roots of the tree

of life but the problem with the show is that it is in 4d which usually isn't an

issue but the effects cause issues for children almost every time I see this

show there's the sensation of bugs running

underneath you and behind you as well as different air and water effects and

there's always at least one poor child in hysterics before we even hit the

halfway point in the show so just be fair warned before going onto this show

at number 10 is the Hall of Presidents in the Magic Kingdom now this show is

historical in nature but when I was little it could not keep my attention at

all I always slept through it which I likely needed as a small child another

issue is that the show has come under scrutiny lately for the quality of the

President Trump animatronic so take that as you will but the really cool thing

about this show is the sheer number of animatronics and how they all look

lifelike even when they're not the one speaking next up is the Star Wars

launch Bay Theatre at Disney's Hollywood Studios now this is an optional film

that you can see before going into the launch Bay

and it serves as a celebration of Star Wars and as a trailer for upcoming

installments this is fun and easy to do if you're already headed into the launch

Bay also at Hollywood Studios is Walt Disney presents now this theater runs

different shows depending on the day and it often runs special promotions and

previews of upcoming Disney films that are going to be released but when it's

not doing that it runs a film called one man's dream which is all about Walt

Disney and how he built the theme parks and the process of that which is a must

watch if you're a Disney history buff at number seven is the Disney and Pixar

Short Film Festival at Epcot now the animated shorts that run before Disney

and Pixar movies are honestly one of my favorite parts of watching the

full-length films I have always been fascinated with shorts and this theater

rotates through different shorts and shows them to audiences in 4d which is

an experience you can't replicate at home and number six is the Monsters Inc

Laugh Floor in Tomorrowland now what makes this show cool is the amount of

real-time audience interaction the monsters are putting on a comedy show

which includes a lot of interaction with the audience including having audience

members become a running joke throughout a show and giving you the opportunity to

submit your own jokes to be used next up is a classic attraction

it is the Enchanted Tiki Room at the Magic Kingdom now a lot of the

animatronics are not very sophisticated but the music and jokes still connect

with audiences today and it is one of those quintessential Disney experiences

plus as a bonus you can enjoy a snack while watching this show

Mickey's Philharmagic is a perfect show to take little kids to as it features

all the biggest Disney characters it is also a film that's presented in 3d and I

can remember from my very first trip to Disney World as a child being so taken

in by the 3d visuals that I actually tried to pop bubbles that weren't in the

theater also this show has an excellent collection of music from across the

Disney library at number 3 is my personal favorite indoor show it's the

Carousel of Progress now this attraction actually predates the parks and is

filled to the brim with Disney history but the mechanism of the ride is a lot

of fun as well you come in and sit in the theater and then while the stage

remains stationary you actually rotate around the stage to see the different

scenes of the show the music of this attraction is also excellent it gets

stuck in my head which is a good thing and reminds me that there is always a

great big beautiful tomorrow shining at the end of every day number two is an

interactive show from Epcot called turtle talk with crush now this show is

a must do if you have young kids but I still enjoy going and watching it as an

adult and what happens during the show is that crush from Finding Nemo takes

questions from children in the audience he teaches them a little bit about ocean

life and of course passes along his very chill attitude I just love witnessing

the authentic interaction between crush and the audience finally the best indoor

show at the Walt Disney World Resort is Muppet vision 3d at Disney's Hollywood

Studios this show has something for everyone in it it's hilarious and you

don't need to be familiar with the characters to get the jokes

although fans of the Muppets will certainly appreciate getting to see them

all play to their strengths also the show building

has some of the most fun and creative theming out of any across the entire

resort and I am so glad that this show has survived the Hollywood studios

expansions those are the best indoor shows at Walt Disney World Resort head

on down to the comments and let me know what your favorite or least favorite

show to watch is and if you've enjoyed this video first of all click the like

I ranked the best nighttime shows at Walt Disney World

Do Volunteers receive training? - Duration: 0:24.

Over the summer of the first year that I was here Peace Corps trained me in

community and youth development techniques - that was our afternoon

classes, and in the morning every day we had about four or five hours of Mongolian

language. So we had full days of training and then we would have community

projects throughout the summer as well, too.
