Sometimes you really make a valid point.. when i first watched this video i thought the same thing.. but then i realized .. if is after the education of high school etc that he is talking about.. everyone needs the foundation of a good primary education.. but some people are not college material.. and actually hate it... if you have a dream of doing something you enjoy even if it does not pay alot of money .. he is just saying to persue that goal and become a master of that skill because you enjoy doing it.....and what better way in life then to work at something you really love doing.. i shug at the thought of a doctor doing an operation that inside his gut he actually hates his job.. but he was driven to be a doctor because of the money........
I think many people are in a profession for the money rather than because they like their job.
That is all well and good, but who pays the bills? In the US there are over 47 million people on public assistance. The workers are the ones footing the bill. Is this fair?
I find this so funny how this argument always pops up. Just cause people live on public assistance doesn't make them any different from anyone else. Not everyone is blessed enough to have a good education and financial situation.
Ill use myself as an example. I ve working since I was 13. Paid taxes all my life. Now I'm 21 and recently lost my job and public assistance is all the income I have until I find another job. If I didn't have public assistance I would have been evicted from my home without hesitation And would be living on the street with my 11 month old son and wife. Is that fair?

I cant see the vid on my phone, but i think i know what it might be about...
Anyway, im that type of person... Never wanted to do things the traditional way and couldnt care about making tons of money as long as i loved what i do...
By doing that i have indeed excelled at what i do, since i was never a book nerd type destined to be a doctor / lawyer type, but more creative type of person who needed real world experience doing what i loved and not "learning" about it from some book as read by a professor whos probably never actually had much or any real world experience...

i just got to watch the video cause i couldnt see it from my phone. first i must say it is inspiring to me personally. from what i understand its not the fact of paying bills or education that hes aiming at, its the pursuit of happiness in life period.
Did you loose your job because you want to paint or write poems? There are those on public assistance from no fault of their own, I don't think this is who Joe is refering too. He is refering to those who don't work and don't take care of their finacial responsablities because they are only out doing what makes them happy instead.
Get an education, then get a job, become a productive member of society and then persue happiness. Instead of some one else fitting the bill for these people only persuing their happiness.
