Hello friends, I am out doing one of my typical walks. I recently turned 51, and uh, I try and work out every day. Health is very important. I get to the gym, and I try and go for my walks, do my cardio, watch my weight the best I can, although

I do like to eat, and I am a foodie, but things get more difficult as you get older. More videos to come on that, but anyway, I'm out on my walk. Got to be careful; it's hunting season. I live out in a beautiful but pretty remote area, a

lot of hunting going on right now, so hopefully I don't get shot. But I wanted to tell you guys and ask you guys, turning 50 was a very profound time for me, probably one of the most profound times in my life. And you know, I, I, you become more

aware of time, man. I, my game's over half over. Every day counts. You look back at your regrets, all kinds of different things. But one of the things about me, and I think a lot of you can relate to me, and I'm looking forward to your feedback on this is when

I was young, I was raised pretty good. I was a really nice, kind-hearted person. I was so naive about so many things. In, in school, we learn things, but we don't learn things like, you know, finances, how to handle money, red flags of relationships and personality

disorders, getting involved with the wrong people with businesses, making bad business deals. We don't learn any of that. But you know, I've found through time, having been a kind-hearted person, that as time has gone on and as I've aged, I don't like people the way I used

So I could come up with a whole bunch of different reasons, having the wrong people in my life, making very bad choices with business and relationships, seeing the other side of people. Not that I'm claiming to be perfect in any way, but I've just noticed that in life now, 

you know, with my clients, with my business, I give my clients 100% of myself. I'm very positive, I try my best to help them, but I noticed that in general with people and socially now, I don't want to do much with people on the social end of things, or, and now, 

if somebody comes up to me and they're friendly to me, I, I naturally have become very suspicious. I'm like, "Oh, what does this person want? What's going on here?" But I notice, I noticed that just with people, I just, I don't know, I don't like people. 

The way I used to, you know, it's very, when we went through the pandemic, it was a very trying time, very sad time, you know, we, we'll keep all the conspiracy theories aside for right now, but one of the things I loved most, well for the, 

first part of it, I was in a very, very awful relationship with someone who had borderline personality disorder, but uh, when I got out of that and I lived on my own, one of the things I loved most was going into a grocery store, 20 minutes at 

night before it closed, 20 minutes before it closed, getting my groceries and just hiding from people. I'm almost, I've become almost a social recluse. Uh, I don't trust people, I hate drama, and uh, I don't know, that's how I 

Um, you don't, as I said, don't get me wrong, I'm still, I can be friendly and I have, I'm very good with my clients on a professional level. I give them the best of me, but uh, I wonder if that's happened to all of you or some of you out there.

As we age, have you gotten more jaded, more suspicious of people? Uh, you know, a person I used to know 10 years ago and spend time with, he popped up in my feed today on uh, my new Facebook account. I'm not, I'm not big on social media, which is

really weird. It's really weird that I'm not a big fan of people, cuz I got, I'm starting this YouTube channel, but uh, it just, it popped up, it brought back some memories and on his friends list it's the same silly people, the same losers.

The same people that haven't grown or changed at all. I was like, man, maybe I've changed. But I want to ask all of you out there, have you found with age, getting on in your 50s, getting into your 50s, maybe late 40s, is that something that's normal?

Do you just kind of try to avoid people and just keep yourself more and more, you're more suspicious of people and uh, you just don't like people as much? Is that normal? What do you guys think? Comment below, so if you can hit like and hit subscribe, I know it's annoying. It's

annoying to ask people and when you're watching it's annoying to hear that, but if you can, it would mean a lot. All right, but let me know what you think of the video and if you've experienced this with age. To maybe you've been screwed.

over by enough people in your lifetime you're like oh God I'm tired of people but I'm I'm really what you'd call a social recluse are you This is Brian signing off
