What is an advice to people who are trying to be self -made millennials?

Do not listen to non -self -made ones.

So us, right?

hey guys

so welcome to the second episode of the privileged few today

we're going to my friend's house he's pretty much a crazy rich asian

and he also is going to show us his mansion so

it's going to be absolutely mind -blowing let me give him a call

oh darling hello hey bro so we're already on the way right okay i'll be right along thank you Sia.

He gets too philosophical sometimes, but trust me, his house is so with it.

Bloody sun.

Oh!

Ouch!

Well, that concludes my morning, and I presume Albina should be here any moment.

oh hello

that didn't take long did it it took way too long

i haven't all right now i'm in the world okay anyhow you're

so fancy as always oh well i mean prepared for you didn't i now i feel like i'm not prepared

but i my excuse is that i'm just from the airport

so okay but trust me you're never too casual are you i try miros it's been a

while since i saw you okay you are no longer a crazy rich asian student in london

but one thing which remained the same about you okay is

that you stay humble okay i didn't know i used to come off as a crazy rich asian but Yes.

Well, that's the thing.

You don't come off like that, but that's the reality.

That's how people perceive, isn't it?

Why do you think all of the rich kids study abroad?

Knowledge as such is not as important.

What a modern person probably needs more is being worldly.

And I think that's something that unites a lot of people from different countries,

that they're worldly they went to the same restaurants in the same cities perhaps kind of itineraries look similar

and i'm not a huge fan of that

but then again you know it's what you end up having anyway

so that's probably true culturally we're so much closer than we actually think

so the differences is you know they're just miniscule it's probably

in the way we look you know in the way behave i mean culture is important

but the thing that they don't have is culture it's very much of a networking aspect I think

so for me my dad he was always telling me

that no matter where you go you are taught by the same books

but it's about the people who surround you yeah surroundings is

the most important thing I think even though it's important to fit in right

and your circle can I say was pretty flashy you were not like them

so did you not feel like you had to prove anything

to anybody how come you're different no actually the actual reason is

because I sucked at it it's true i really sucked

because there were so many like guys super popular especially among the girls who would be like

so natural like and showing off i wasn't able to better present myself

and i always actually felt like oh it's like some kids more natural with it i'd say yeah

so that's that was my shortcoming uh in fact

and then late years later i fell in love with it

and actually I now use it as sort of my my strength rather than my weakness.

There's a football club called Chelsea Football Club FC and because we used to live not too far from the ground

For two years, we had a booth, not like a booth, it's like a room, a private dining room with a table, which is always catered, like for eight people,

and then with a private balcony for eight as well

so you you have like a season ticket for all the home matches

but you know with a little bit of perk in there uh

so it would be the funny thing is like even

if you're sick or didn't show up it would be served regardless it's just

because the um it was the pub is what it was part of the deal

and then i was so stupid because um uh me

and my parents we went there was fun the first few

times then it was like most of the football games are on sundays

so my mom was you know uh like oh should we

just go there for the for the food they're like yeah sure just for for the food for lunch

so yeah alcohol is like you know wasted should we just you know finish

that drink that and then it never occurred to me at

that time i could be the most popular guy

and like in university or like in among my friends circle

because you know all like among girls

which was my objective obsessive objective back then

because as i've said i wasn't like you know

that easygoing at a time so um i never used it in like in my favor

and i think that

if there would be like nowadays like i i go back how stupid i was

but like other kids in my place would have been much much smarter

and like oh it was a missed opportunity oh dear big

time big time yeah oh talking about chelsea russian oligarchs oh right okay you recently met with chichvarkin i did

and how do you feel in their presence

because do you feel a lot of people even

if they're wealthy yeah they feel very uncomfortable talking to other successful people do you feel motivated by them

or is it just like what do you oh yeah many things first of all um

because i was the one paying the sort of the entrance

fee to his business store i was there more to listen

rather than speak obviously i want to make you know good impression of myself

and like whenever opportunity presented obviously you know want to throw a good you know joke here

and there but i i think it's just it's many things i don't know

if it's me being asian and like we have this respect was like older people we try not to interrupt and

especially successful people i think uh you just want to listen to them don't you because

even here in kazakhstan like i've met um some some of

the people who leaves me the buildings where i for my restaurants

so they're quite well often i say um it's just an opportunity to absorb Let's go back to your university years,

what was your allowance?

3000 pounds, at that time the pound was much stronger than US dollars, so that's like 2008, so it's like twice the US amount,

but it has to be said that I didn't have any expenses,

so no rent no because i used to live with my parents and no food expenses or anything

obviously so it was just completely you know unattached yeah whatever you can do with it

so what were you doing with it um actually i didn't have an idea

so i just saved it up and bought myself camera gear really yeah yeah

because i mean like you know um first few years you

100

do something with it you just you know go hang out you know buy this

101

and that but after a

102

while you just have no idea what to do with it you're

103

so responsible um well i mean yeah it was the first

104

time i was actually given like you know money like in

105

the beginning of the month rather than like you know expenses based like

106

when you were at school right

107

so like mom i want to buy like i don't know like a toy

108

or this i need here like that you just ask specific amounts whereas like

109

when you as you grow up you're given like some sort

110

of allowance budget for you to plan for you to

111

and I don't know I just had no idea what to do with it what

112

if you would not fit in the budget throughout

113

that month what would you do I could probably ask

114

but I didn't

115

because I obviously had savings like carryovers from previous months yeah

116

actually I traveled really well I think traveling was always sort of the best reward for saving i'd say yeah

117

so traveling was not a part of the budget you know

118

it was actually it was yeah yeah i wouldn't ask for anything extra plus

119

because when you're in london you have you know um easy jets you know budget airlines just to go

120

and actually the name of the game at the time was um you would feel happy

121

if you were able to save you know bit a bit here

122

if you could buy the same thing

123

but just a bit cheaper you know on a sale you'd actually feel more rewarded at that time.

124

not sure how it is right now but i look up to you i want to be like you because

125

my college experience was so different okay i had the budget right

126

and i also lived in the dorm for the first two years

127

because it was a requirement okay but every time i would go to new york

128

or to boston

129

or i would have to go somewhere for vacation there wasn't a part of the budget okay

130

and then when i graduated

131

and i started working i started being friends with my co -workers

132

and they asked me something about savings and i was like what is

133

that and then i realized that now i was 21

134

and they didn't even have any savings this is one thing

135

which i would do differently than my parents i would be way more strict with my kids budget

136

because i feel like sometimes my parents didn't want to say no to me

137

but that was the thing how they actually not only spoiled me

138

but i wasn't financially aware i don't want to put too

139

much control over the kids you know what i mean like even though we might not admit to ourselves maybe

140

like you know dozing is like one degree of control and that's what i don't want to do is like

141

if you want to teach him responsibility just give you know as much as you can

142

and see if he like what he or she does with it

143

so I think it's just you know there's no right

144

or wrong so that's that's probably what I learned

145

so then based on what you're saying you wouldn't want your

146

child to have like a monthly allowance no actually I would

147

but then I wouldn't limit I think it's like it's one

148

thing to learn how to live on a tight budget

149

but there's also another skill one has to learn how to live on a grand budget I'd say that's

150

so true yeah it's also responsibility and you know that that fails a lot of people at the same time so

151

a lot of people always ask rich kids why do you even choose to work in the first place

152

because if you wanted to you didn't have to do that

153

so what is your internal motivation to work

154

or was it never even considered that you wouldn't work in your case well

155

that that's for sure obviously I always perceived myself as a creative guy parents being an energy business

156

and like I'm completely the opposite

157

but I think it's for a lot of kids it's like

158

proving their worth to their parents they're not scumbags I'd say are we allowed to say

159

that we are okay okay great

160

so you feel like you have to prove yourself well I

161

mean I think for a lot of kids it started

162

that way teen times and then like in their 20s first you have to prove your worth Then it becomes,

163

I don't know, maybe like just an idea that everyone else is sort of doing something.

164

There's always a competitive edge to it, isn't it?

165

Like there's always siblings, there's always other kids.

166

And I think competitiveness is actually what, you know, made humans, humans.

167

I mean, where we are is the smartphones we have and technology this whole competition, I think it's just a very natural state for a human being to be in.

168

So, when you're talking about competitiveness with your siblings, is it a healthy competition or can it get toxic from time to time?

169

Because everybody watches Succession right now, right?

170

Oh, right, okay.

171

And everybody's opinion is like cut -throw environments with your siblings, but how does it work within your family?

172

Oh, within my family, it's very simple because we've divided our sort of directions per se in business.

173

So we started together with my brother doing a super like convenience store chain business.

174

Obviously it wasn't super successful so we sold it to one of the larger retailers here.

175

And then I decided I want to be in restaurant business

176

so I built a chain from there on

177

and then my brother he's like in a fitness industry

178

so they're like completely like non -overlapping sort of directions per

179

se yeah you said you're very different from your parents right right okay

180

so was there a competition within siblings who gets to inherit

181

what your dad does definitely not i think um i have more extended family

182

so my case is probably different

183

so uh never crossed my mind i think i'm being honest

184

but uh i knew that i would not be starving at any point

185

so that gives some sort of basis for confidence does it give you more confidence to start a business

186

when you know that there is a safety net behind you oh definitely

187

there is this gender debate

188

which is okay as all as world as you're saying are

189

the women your sisters yeah do you have sister I have a younger sister yeah is she also working?

190

Does she want to work?

191

No, she just graduated.

192

couple of years ago she's obviously 10 years younger she got married last summer

193

so they just moved over to LA in the foreign country

194

while her husband is you know doing an MBA course

195

so she's just you know figuring things out per se

196

so do you think that there are different expectations from men

197

and women in your family certainly yeah I don't know it's just like I think people are more relaxed

198

when it comes to like you know a girl uh it

199

used to like i'm not i hope i hope i'm not being sexist

200

but like obviously she's the youngest

201

and everyone adores her more than everyone else i were given

202

a choice i would say just yeah just give her everything

203

as long as she's happy i have two older sisters okay

204

so it's three of us are girls there all right

205

and i always felt like i feel so bad for

206

that who's gonna inherit it and then i was like actually me

207

but i always felt like my dad would be even though my dad says

208

that he's a hardcore feminist

209

because he has three daughters i felt like he would feel more calm

210

if he had sons

211

because every time i talk to him about his business he's

212

like oh this is too dangerous i don't want you to go down

213

that route one has to have a thick skin to be in business

214

and obviously you wouldn't want your child to experience some of the things

215

that you've experienced you know all this sort of confrontation maybe

216

some you know fighting especially like you know it's probably some

217

parents are protective of of their girls for example like especially my wife you know

218

if like i'd be okay to like i don't know ride

219

coach bus whatever like you know get into a fight anywhere

220

but like as long as like my wife is safe i feel good

221

so i think it's just probably somewhere somehow like we develop this sort of

222

you know protectionism shall we say does your wife work yeah

223

certainly yeah is she your business partner yeah she is my business partner owner actually of the business

224

that i'm doing because

225

of the tax optimization so to speak and then

226

but her primary job is like um she's doing um with my brother's wife

227

and my wife they're doing a business together they have a

228

clothing brand that's amazing yeah how does gender roles work in your family

229

because it looks like you are very progressive because your wife works

230

but at the same time you are not putting pressure on her I think

231

if girls are listening to this you are the ideal type of man

232

because that's what everybody is looking for my parents

233

and like my generation were completely different and

234

when I was a kid like i also i always used to hear this sort of idea

235

that you one has to pick a girl judging by their mother

236

and that's probably true for most cases

237

because you know at the at the end of the day

238

we end up being who we you know aspire to most of our childhood

239

and like uh

240

but at the same time um in in my case i think that's furthest from the truth

241

so my parents obviously you know completely different generation

242

and i'm never gonna judge them for that so my mom used to be a doctor

243

a practicing doctor so obviously my father was in the business so

244

obviously she had to give up certain things when you know me

245

and my brother but then when my sister was born

246

so it was just you know burning at both ends at the same time so she just committed to being a mother, a sort of head of the family.

247

Our generation, we appreciate what we've seen from our parents, but I don't think we want to replicate that in any way.

248

So in my immediate family, that is being me and my wife and my son, I'm hoping that we'll be, you know, equal partners, you know,

249

doing decisions, you know, equally.

250

I'm hoping it's as equal as it could get given you

251

know all the cultural physiological I don't know like whatever circumstances

252

but I'm hoping it's so

253

when you say equal I know a lot of people will think 50 50 right what do you mean

254

when you say equal but what is 50 50 time money for example in America right okay

255

and I don't want to generalize and say America but typically

256

when somebody says 50 50 it's we are renting an apartment

257

and both of us are paying 50 % of

258

that rent we're going to grocery store one day I'm buying groceries the next day she is buying groceries

259

or he's buying groceries obviously one thing I learned over the years is what works for two works for two so

260

if it works for those people I'm super happy for them

261

obviously it's not the way I would be I would call

262

it too anal obviously to be like you know nitpicking you know on like The way it works,

263

obviously, when my wife, actually my girlfriend back there, so fiance after that, when we met, she used to live in Dubai, having a crazy career in fashion house,

264

French couture house, so in PR, and then obviously she moved over to my country so that this whole thing worked.

265

So she's made a great, great contribution so obviously I kept my business

266

and she came like moved over so there's an argument who's made a bigger contribution she gave up her whole life

267

career everything to just move and then even like at

268

that time we weren't even married

269

and then from there we built you know a family

270

so there's never a possibility to sort of put a finger

271

so yeah obviously I do you know because my business was up

272

and running by the time you know she moved but we expanded it so we made it bigger

273

and you know uh nominally i could be the provider of the family but then

274

if you measure the commitment for you know for the whole

275

thing to come together there's probably you know yeah yeah it's like an end like endless arguments

276

so i i don't know i just appreciate what you know what what's been done that's very nice

277

that you acknowledge it because so many people don't acknowledge those sacrifices

278

which women make in order to keep the relationship alive

279

and what happens today is that often it's measured only financially it's a promise yeah

280

if you fail on the promise you know there has to

281

be a sizable enough um compensation one should not fail on their promises it's like what i generally believe in

282

so there's this idea that all the asian people have karaoke in their homes

283

and it's what they do like day and night sing karaoke

284

and even though it's not the furthest thing from truth here we are small cinema i love these chairs

285

and the saddest thing is that like

286

we still end up just watching netflix on our mobile phones

287

in bed regardless who watches like a telly these days there is this topic

288

which is so popular in america right now it's prenup.

289

Do you have it and do you believe in it?

290

No, I didn't do a prenup, but I think it's just such a relaxing document at the same time, because I mean no one gets married to get divorced,

291

so once you have it you can just forget about it, so I think it only makes sense.

292

My personal opinion, I think I wouldn't get married without a prenup

293

and the reason for this is

294

because I think a lot of couples they don't discuss a lot of financial questions in the beginning yeah

295

and prenup kind of forces you to have this conversation with the lawyer

296

and better understand what is the expectations of the other person that's

297

so true yeah yeah yeah what things would you sort of stipulate in your prenup

298

anything and everything I think a lot of people don't understand

299

that prenup is not only about the financial aspect

300

but you can also talk about a lot of emotional things

301

which are involved for example horrible example

302

but unfortunately it does happen in life right what happens

303

if one of the partners sleeps

304

and you already have a child are they allowed to be

305

super close with your new partner what type of relationship are you expecting to have with the new partner

306

because i think it's also very good to discuss such hard questions

307

while you and your future husband

308

or future wife are still in a good relationship okay

309

and you're not doing it hot headed i mean hypothetical ones

310

hypothetical then i would also include privacy of my intellectual property for example

311

if i'm discussing some business ideas with my husband i would want to make sure

312

that if we get divorced he's not going to be using them

313

so a lot of those type of things oh well that's

314

that's very detailed I'd say I actually haven't thought as much in

315

that depth to be honest

316

but yeah it's just like whichever is meant to give you

317

comfort at the end of the day you know having thought

318

and actually I think it's a very mature thing

319

because especially in the in business and in like in friendships people delay making hard decisions until the very last

320

and um one thing i actually love about you know women in in like in corporate environment is that they're not

321

you know shy or afraid to sort of confront

322

and I don't mean in a bad way like you know like shouting like scandals

323

or anything it's just um to openly talk and that's confronting isn't it

324

and it's most peaceful sort of meaning uh their colleagues not

325

not like you know leaving the problem until the very last last moment

326

when it becomes like a disaster so I think that's that's a very mature thing

327

and you know may the couples live happier ever after exactly i also one thing

328

which i want to point out is that i trust myself

329

and my future partner more than i trust the government i

330

don't want them to be the ones who are splitting our

331

assets all right i'd rather figure it out with him in the beginning

332

and then we know what goes to me

333

and what goes to him i mean it's just two adults having adult conversation

334

because a lot of us you know we get married

335

because of like the sheer love and like passion and one thing

336

which I would also include in the prenup is motherhood expectations something

337

which is very important to me

338

so you know I work my whole life I really enjoy working but

339

when I have kids I really want to dedicate my life

340

to motherhood for example for two to three years okay

341

and as I'm doing this obviously I'm putting all of my trust financially on the other person.

342

So I would say what I'm expecting financially and put it in the contract.

343

Not that I don't trust my husband, but I just believe in things more when there is a signature there.

344

Interesting, yeah.

345

But then again, that makes sense because, you know, people have to declare things, commit to things.

346

And when you write things down, or in this case, put a signature, it's also a form of commitment in front of you,

347

in front of the universe in front of him or herself

348

so that's probably yeah that's why it works in it do

349

you believe in trust funds I do yeah I mean these

350

mechanisms were created invented by rich people for rich people

351

so they wouldn't invent something that's you know it's not gonna be beneficial to them down the road so of course.

352

Are there any conditions you have been thinking of for the trust fund of your children?

353

With my son being only five I think it's a bit maybe a bit early

354

but probably we should start thinking about that yeah.

355

Yeah because I was thinking that this is such an amazing tool

356

if you're in a wealthy family to keep your kids motivated.

357

Oh absolutely absolutely Absolutely.

358

And also, it's kind of like a safety mechanism as well.

359

They could be subject of fraud, bad divorce or anything.

360

So you want to have this sort of dozing of the aid that you want to set up for your offsprings.

361

What are the rich people hobbies, in your opinion?

362

I find these things too stereotypical, to be honest.

363

And then labelling is, you know,

364

what I really want to sort of avoid doing here because obviously like,

365

yeah, you do this and obviously if you do like rowing, you're successful.

366

You're probably like, you know, Ivy League preppy guy wearing Abercrombie.

367

People label and I think it's for the lack of knowledge of the other.

368

and my personal worldview is like one has to bridge

369

that gap of knowledge people hate each other just

370

because they don't know as much as they should about the other

371

so I think there's one thing

372

that fixes all the diseases all the hatred in the world is knowledge and like sort of familiarity with the other,

373

I think.

374

Obviously, expensive hobbies, they're expensive hobbies that other people cannot afford is like car collecting,

375

collecting wine, all sorts of possessions.

376

But other than possessions, I don't know, it's very universal.

377

We very luckily live and a very increasingly universal universe,

378

if that makes sense, where, you know, things that used to be prohibitively expensive for, you know, generations back are becoming more open.

379

I'm going to share one trick, how to play some Chinese music, even though you are complete rubbish, just like myself and piano.

380

No, here's the secret, only play the black keys.

381

Yeah, sounds Chinese, doesn't it?

382

That's my secret.

383

What is an advice you would give to people who are trying to be self -made millionaires, for example?

384

Okay, do not listen to non -self -made ones, just like myself.

385

So us, right?

386

Yeah, immediate surroundings, immediate environment of the people is what matters the most

387

and I think if one is short for ideas and don't know what to do is...

388

the easiest way is to just throw yourself in a group of you know fun seeking interesting people

389

that you know that they're not you know wasting their time like determined people um chances are

390

if you spend a little bit too much time with like you know gangs

391

and criminals or i don't know uh that's who you're gonna become

392

and pick up on so just fix your immediate surrounding if you have no idea what to do, like right now.

393

That's a good advice.

394

Okay, so one of the things which we discussed in my first episode with the European kid, watch it if you still haven't,

395

is that he, when he was friends and he was saying that he's not friends with the poor people, and if he was, he would never pay for them.

396

What I was telling him is that I had friends from different financial backgrounds and

397

if i would want them present somewhere i would always cover

398

their spendance what do you feel about this um i used to do

399

that but i think um that's where your roads actually sort of diverge at some point

400

because i mean you can't be um you'll start to question

401

if it's like what's the reason for like for your friendship i think i think i would agree with

402

that with with the person you just mentioned yeah to an extent

403

because you don't want to be the sort of um you

404

don't want your friends to be there just for the perks you know

405

and even though you have such crazy crazy network one of the questions

406

which i often get asked is as a rich kid do you have friends who are not rich kids

407

and if you do how did you meet them oh yeah absolutely um It becomes more unnatural down the road,

408

I'd say, but at school, everything you need for happiness was like in PlayStation or computer games, so no, of course not.

409

I think it becomes more evident as we grow and, you know, sometimes, you know, like especially when you travel, like perhaps some, you know,

410

budget for a hotel or for something would be comfortable for you

411

but then again you wouldn't want to sort of make the

412

other person uncomfortable by you know opting for something like

413

that you want like a more expensive hotel like you know

414

one thing i do not want is for my friend

415

and i to be like sitting in different cabins uh of an airplane

416

so if like i'm in business

417

and he's in economy okay i'm lying a little bit

418

so maybe that That is the maximum threshold that I would allow myself because it's just too much back pain nowadays.

419

But case in time, I was in Kilimanjaro two years ago.

420

I climbed the mountain.

421

So we would stay in a tent.

422

We'd eat from the same plates, eat the same food.

423

And I think that's more important.

424

And I think it's about the decision.

425

If you don't want to do it, don't go with the person in the first place.

426

But if you did, commit to it.

427

I'm just trying not to make the other person too uncomfortable by, you know.

428

But you draw the line at the economy.

429

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

430

I think if you are defined who you are by the cabin you choose, then you are a finished person because,

431

like, it's not an important deal.

432

Obviously, in a long -haul flight, in longer flights, obviously, you'd want maximum comfort that you can, but it doesn't define you.

433

The moment it starts defining me and puts me into these sort of confines, I'm a loser is what I think.

434

So I think there's nothing more liberating than being free to choose either or, not to be just stuck to anything.

435

But one thing where I draw the line 100%, if it's my wife, I don't want her to be uncomfortable, stranded in queues and everything so if it's my son

436

or my wife 100 but i'm more more flexible

437

when it comes to me obviously probably my wife doesn't feel

438

that way like she's more free to explore

439

but then uh i don't know i just want like the utmost comfort for my wife

440

so that that's that's an interesting one

441

because i don't want her to be stranded like uh in

442

a long queue there's there could be a conflict here and there so yeah.

443

And lastly who would you like to see on our show next?

444

I think Stadgei, he's so reverent and fun.

445

Oh okay actually there's even better idea, Eve Jobs.

446

Oh, of course, that would be amazing.

447

Horse riding, all the things, modelling, she's very big and prominent, and obviously Steve Jobs being the father figure.

448

Thank you for taking the time of your day to show us your house, which is absolutely beautiful, and to give us an opportunity and our audience to get to know.

449

So masks come off, no more humbleness, no more humility.

450

Let's go party!

Звуки «th»: wealthy /ˈwɛl.θi/, booth /buθ/, hypothetical /ˌhaɪpəˈθɛtɪkəl/, clothing /ˈkloʊðɪŋ/, thick /θɪk/
Звуки «sh» и «zh»: expectation /ˌɛk.spɛkˈteɪ.ʃən/, friendship /ˈfɹɛn(d)ʃɪp/, possession /pəˈzɛʃn̩/, contribution /ˌkɑntɹɪˈbjuʃən/, passion /ˈpæʃən/

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
