0:00 I think I noticed I got older when all the sh I thought was cool I think it's lame now oh like what like what like I'll be at home right just chilling and I hear like I'm like hey shut up back there there could be babies sleeping around [Laughter] [Music] here welcome back to another amazing episode of careful boys today let's talk about what's something that you've noticed about yourself that shows that you're aging oh oh that I'm aging my hair what about your hair I'm losing it are you losing it where show I can't see where right

0:51 here no but that could be dude your hair looks totally fine that's fine yeah your hair looks perfect that's probably just from head spins and ████ sub how old are you actually 28 you're a young ass man I thought you were like young I'm about to be 29 28 and a half I'm like 11 plus I'm like 12 years older than you damn damn so that makes me feel old so what other ways have you felt like you're aging besides that my responsibilities but not not obviously not okay honestly I can't tell just LifeWise do you feel like you're more mature with how you handle responsibilities anything anything like that nope do you're the same same decision making do you think you're at your prime before your prime or after your Prime and whatever Prime means to you um I feel like I'm going to hit my

1:42 Prime at 30 that's that's a good way of seeing it yeah yeah I think your 30s are going to be awesome man I think so too I love my 30s 30s is it's a good time I can't wait you feel like you've been aging at all in any noticeable ways I think I understand now why people wanted to relax on the weekends I understand why they like peace I understand why they want quiet neighborhoods that one that like those things are like oh ████ you know like your energy changes cuz I think when you get older your problems are more internal and like the things that you're dealing with it's so mentally like stressful like the problems that you're solving when you're younger I think it's more um you're almost like looking for excitement cuz you're bored so then you're looking for

2:34 like a passion to build a business or doing something right and then the older you get now you have to like deal with the responsibilities of your dreams of like your desires of like I want to ████ make a lot of money so I could like buy this ████ or whatever right but then now you got to take care of the ████ that you bought or whatever so then now you're in that stage of like oh I built this ████ business now I got to take care of the business that I built and then now you're not like hustling in the same way when you're young you're building and everything is fun and you're surrounded by other people don't that don't have responsibilities but once you build responsibilities you're like weighed down by them so now you want peace to just chill on a ████ hammock and then before when I was younger I was like I don't understand why you guys take so many naps like do you remember growing up and your parents are like always taking naps and you're like are you a baby like let's go play

3:25 you know yeah but now I get it I'm like okay people just want to chill they want quiet cuz they're so their life so crazy mhm yeah what about you K mine's similar to both of those my hair thinned out a lot over the last maybe two to three years my mom was struggling with not from head spins um only from head neck freezes yeah you'll be dancing too much she's a dancing fool and then my knees always crack when I bend down oh hot what do they go like that hot hot that just knees bro oh but it's also probably from dance though too listen shut up don't do it so fast slow down what that sound like two dice who's got dice in their pocket sck hat S I should say that every time it happens what the heck some kids just

4:17 crack that popsicle sticks dude but I don't know if that's from just like mine's like that too if I ever post like a workout video of me squatting and if you don't hear the music you I'm like God damn I sound ████ old this and that that worries me a little bit cuz my mom just had um knee surgery like a full replacement she she's a jogger no a dancer no no cuz Casey niad I think he he jogged so much that he had no more like cartilage in his knees that can Happ I think just regular people be getting KN I think it's just the age um do you feel like do you think you have bad knees generally I don't think so because it's like they're not in pain especially when I work out like I'm not in pain even when like they crack I'm not in pain so um I don't know maybe I should get them checked out we'll see

5:08 you know what the key is oxtail they got a lot of collagen Ox they got a lot of they fire you get oxa your mom's place oh yeah she got that dude collagen good joints damn what about you nick uh I'm making more stupid jokes about my wife all the time about how she was like a ball and chain that's I'm getting yelled at a lot more it's kind of fun playing into those roles though yeah no it is fun it's it's really fun um but I just been thinking about like security as a whole a little bit more you know like just like safety yeah just like I don't know I just think about money everything like I'm I think I'm changing how I think about how I've done life yeah I think I think that happens to people as they get older right like I was like I was ████ around in my 20s a lot and I was doing all the stupid ████ and I'm like oh I

5:58 have to really change my Act as I get into like my 30s to my 40s maybe and I'm like thinking about it that way I like oh ████ like I have a lot of things that I I'm doing like a more of a self- audit I think okay yeah and I'm thinking about that a lot more you know what I call that bulletproofing that's kind of that's cool way you said it yeah I wish I thought of that can we retake it no I like I've been bulletproofing I like your 50 times longer rambling instead like bulletproofing yourself you know finances why make get one word just your relationship just hold people as you talk just don't yeah listen to me while I'm trying to explain this and if they start to pull away you just pull them back in and then say you're not listening to me aggressiv no that's different though yeah I've been thinking about that stuff a little bit more um and I think I'm

6:49 just getting a little bit more grumpier too how about how do you feel about new things do like new things not impress you like cool stuff that the kids like like music and ████ yeah I am missing out on like music that I feel like I would have a pulse on you know or like who's this artist and they're like you just listen to mainly older ████ yeah you know that's the other too I'm starting to listen to music that my parents listen to that's a big one that's a big one the classics omaran mom was an omaran fan Omar she loved omaran dude big Snoop Dog fan yeah so yeah I think I'm just my brain is changing a little bit I feel like uh it's getting Dumber it's it's realizing how dumb I am too you know I'm starting to read more books and stuff I'm like yeah I should have been doing this reading stuff what the book you reading

7:39 right now uh I'm actually reading the money that you the money the book that you told me about the psychology of money that's good I'm good ████ book dude really what chapter are you on are in the middle I'm on like the first audio book no I'm in uh chapter like nine oh ████ yeah but I got to read I got to like read things and listen to things like so many times I have to do this joint I have to like read the the book and then listen the audio book and like have to focus on it dude that's mewise stud that's you're straight studying no because otherwise I'm like oh yeah there's a thing about there's principle about this and it it's it goes away in the wind I listen to the whole audio book I don't even remember I have to listen to audiobooks like three or four times how do you retain it though how do people read the book and retain it I feel like you got to write it now I think that's why people read the same book many times oh cuz I was like yo I'm reading I'm reading it but

8:30 but yeah gone the next second you get more I think after like the second or third time or you look at it differently and you kind of maybe you choose how it's applying to your life specifically you got to implement it right away I'm just catching myself do old man ████ like a my shoulder I got to take a why you telling me ████ that I already know you just making life not fun yeah Grump diet is kind of funny the grumpiness really is like like a very visible sign yeah I think no just me I'm not grumpy yeah cuz I used to not be grumpy about anything and then you know you'll just catch yourself yeah you I think it's cuz you're just weighed down with more ████ that you think you got to do I think that's the the part about being older is like you you you're not a kid anymore so now you have to be the caretaker of yourself and and and people that you love you realize no one's going

9:20 to come save you and ████ yeah right you realize it's all it's kind of all you and your fam and like your network of people and you just get you you see the graph of like unsafe things becoming less and less fun yeah mhm and then I also have this thought of like was it always this way or am I just waking the ████ up you know like of of like what's going on like that's pretty self-aware actually stupid things that I always complain about like now I'm making jokes all the time about like where's my tax dolls going that's a big one that's old guy ████ I think that is old guy ████ and then you start to think like you know you start to hear like people that you wouldn't agree with 5 years ago be like oh yeah you kind of were on something about but you know what funny about that is that I feel like the state of uh well the State of the State ████ is so much worse than it was before that people even younger are more pissed When We Were Young it was invisible you didn't

10:11 see any of it and now like actual younger people are like ████ this ████ like there's certain things where like I would consider myself for my early 20s up until recently where I was like very liberal or but to the point where I didn't really look into stuff and I would just say like things that I would hear my friends or family say become who I right and then you start to look things and you go oh well these ████ some of these conservative guys actually have really good points of this is yeah maybe we should worry about the family unit Shane Gillis the Shane Gillis bit you yeah you do become a little more conservative you're like oh yeah maybe we should arrest criminals yeah maybe we should let these ████ Go free like maybe we do need more rules Common Sense gets pretty stronger no 100% what's up guys if you do not know we have a patreon I want you

14:24 his car such a dad dude I know dude that is true it is very visible when you see like teens not doing anything it's annoying yeah they're just but it doesn't do anything to anyone ah these goddamn you ████ lazy kids doing Tik toks like seeing it in your peripheral you're just like lazy ████ kids I feel like that when I do self checkout and I and I know I'm like paying for everything and I just go like people are just ████ stealing all the time and I got pay off all these items yeah yeah yo that's my thing like being honest it like has made me feel older the funny ████ is like the hypocrisy that I have like of watching all these kids jacking ████ running away getting away and I'm like man they got to do something about this crime and I'm

15:14 like I did the same ████ I ████ broke into homes I ████ stole from stores I did all that ████ and I'm looking like man that's the society oh man it's all decaying and ████ they got to catch these criminals I'm like that was me you know what I caught myself doing I was walking the docks and then just on the sidewalk and I saw on the street there was a couple oil stains I'm like someone needs to get their ████ gaskets checked so old so old like oil like circles and I'm like how how about this the other the other day I took my Firebird to the exhaust shop to like um I wanted to change like some of the the tips and stuff and then when I was there the guy was already under there I'm like hey while you're there can you glass

16:04 pack it just so it's not as loud and he's all what you want it he goes to make it loud I was like no to make it not loud he goes not loud he we just staring at each other for the longest sure I was like yeah I don't want it to be loud it's like I'm ████ old dude what I did notice my transition though so my transition was uh so when I had my RS7 it was ████ loud yeah um and I let's say friends come over that are into cars like yo can you rev it let's just drive outside of the neighborhood go outside whereas before it be like right in front of the house you know but I'm like let's let's let's go somewhere more responsible and I'm like didn't catching yourself do those things you're like it's very different my my one of my longtime friends that I've known since I was five he was like he was like d

16:55 you're so different I was like do you remember one time you came to he used to live in serritos yeah he goes do you remember one time you came to my house in the middle of the night and you just did Donuts on my lawn and he goes my parents were so mad and I was like I would I was like did I do that you know what I allegedly did before so I was in alhamra I was going to my friends house and I was like check this out cuz I've always been into trucks yeah I went on someone's front yard and I just went across all the front yards of the whole street allegedly wo what I think it's because you just got your thing lift your truck lifted and you wanted to test it and you're the one grumbling about gaskets all the things I thought was cool you become hypocritical as hypocritical that's you become a hypocrite you become a you and wag your

17:45 finger and all the young kids like when I was your age I would never do ████ like that y but these young kids are different they're different breed stealing cars but I think I think we did all that we did all that dude we cuz you know how we always get mad of our parents are like oh you know you used to beat our asses and they're like beat your ████ ass I think it's the same type of thing you forget you have amnesia yeah yeah well I don't I just catch myself like oh why am I judging you know I think the comparison game is funny too because even though we did bad ████ you still had a line yeah and like when you see someone do worse ████ than you did as a kid then you can be pissed yeah you sh but don't you think that's the Natural Evolution of ████ cuz like yes like if you think about how bad like like so like let's say there were like those ████ um street gangs back in the day and then they're just like we're

18:35 only going to fist fight and it turns into knives and it turns into guns and it turns into a criminal organization and it just keeps going crazier and crazier and then I'm like thinking yeah you're like the next group is trying to outdo the other group yeah so like it's just going to keep going until when does it stop right and the evolution too is uh all the people that I know that used to bang in the sgv they all want that peaceful suburb life now so they all just move to like Walnut and Diamond Bar so everyone they it's I think it's really natural to go dude the place that I grew up that produced me sucks ass let me get the ████ out of here it's the same way where if you're like a ████ sleazy guy your whole life and then you end up with a daughter and then you don't want her to date anybody it's the same thing it's like cuz you see what's out there and you

19:25 used to be that so you have more data than anybody yeah it's ████ it's you pay for it at the end yeah even when I see taica drink stuff with one hand use two hands why cuz he's going to spill yeah cuz he's like his hand is ████ like this small he can't grip a full water bottle so when you see him grab a bottle it's like you can't even see the other he just looks like it's a floating bottle always almost slipping yeah and he's ████ like drinking like aw and ████ watching TV use two hands godamn it kids do have to drink like this when when do you think you're going to explain to him how truly bad you used to be you can't tell him he might he might glamorize it that's what I mean like what's a good age what's a good age you think I tell him in bits and pieces to relate to him yeah what's what's one of

20:15 your recent bits well um so yesterday was it yesterday dude yesterday so he got suspended yesterday oh no he got suspend not Ni no no not cuz he's been doing so good oh he literally got student of the month and got suspended in the same month oh wow he's just reliving your childhood dude he's variety driven variety driven do both and uh I don't think he knows the the like SE severity of being suspended and I'm like you see this paper on like how many kids have to go home middle of the day he go was none cuz he just thought it was just an infraction I'm like it's so bad that the school thinks you're a danger to the

21:05 school which is why you have to be excused I'm like you know how many uh how many kids get this he goes you did I was like son of a ████ popcorn mom take over Dam hoping Mom doesn't also have the same infraction but that's a really good way to explain suspension to what a 5-year-old yeah cuz they don't know I'm like this is so bad that it's not just like hey go to the corner or whatever this is like you're I might now have to call Sophia's mom because what you did could have harmed her mom you know oh my God and like what he did I think it's a very childish like innocent act he was just arguing with the with the one of his friends and he had scissors and pointing them at the kid's face oh ████ so I was like scissors are scissors until you treat it as a weapon then it's like brandishing a weapon yeah I'm like imagine if I did this at Albertson I was

21:56 like what do you think is going to happen oh they going to call the cop I'm like yeah so I try to like draw the parallel to show that like I'm like cuz a ruler is a ruler until I go like this then what is it it goes a weapon I'm like same thing wow cuz I think in his mind like this just scissors I'm like but it's technically ████ double knife or some ████ dude if I times the knife kid with a great handle on it you got to explain that to the gun the people that's against guns too that's how you got to expl oh yeah yeah that weapons yeah they don't get it that was a really good explanation a gun's not a gun until you shoot someone gun's just an object now I know why my parents would just be like cuz it's just bad that's why they would explain it takes a lot of explanation yeah yeah yeah yeah cuz you probably had to think about that sh on the way home how the ████ am I going to explain this this dude and he has ADD right so I'm like so the minute the argument I was like what

22:46 happened is you took it from here to here he go yeah as tall as me then a grownup then a grandpa then a I'm get back on top of cuz Grandpa's are the tallest yeah so like also like trying to explain to a kid great grandp where they're like a boiling ████ improv show and they're just waiting for words to be inspiration so like it could be very severe and Grave for a moment and then it turns into a comedy act and I have to pretend like that wasn't funny I look at Gio I'm like ████ that was so ████ so cool that you're even trying to explain it because I just got ████ up in my memory the only thing I ever had was why why would you what are you thinking why would you and I be go I don't know that's as far as it would go they

23:38 would just go what the ████ were you it's never like it's never like here's why you did this it's it's just like they're just like and then I'll see my mom later and she'll be like know like there not even there's no discussion my ████ was why don't you have common sense I'm not common yeah I Tred to explain but I don't even know if it's not you said I was wanted a million yeah I don't know if it's like going through or not but I tried but it's something I think that's the thing at least there's something to hit his brain later whereas if you're just freaking out there's no nothing to go back cuz that's how we were all parented you know my mom would just yell at me for all day just like just be like this the whole time like yeah I'm like okay and I wouldn't do it because I don't want her to yell at me instead of oh understand the reason why I did this was wrong yeah yeah yeah yeah after in the

24:29 afternoon he was like hey Papa can we play I'm like you're not on vacation you're suspending he's like oh yeah that forgot thought he had a three-day weekend Ah that's right oh my god dude I'm in trouble dude my dad was just quiet when he picked me up when I got suspended he didn't say nothing he didn't say ████ he just like ████ you up man no he just quiet the whole way home he's like I ain't going to see this dude for a while anyway he's he's checking his flights on the way he's already setting it up he's like I'm going to leave anyways I don't give a ████ but yo what dude my dad would just say you just keep quiet though what's up man you yo so my dad's quiet the whole time and I get in the house and he just goes

25:19 sleep early you're going to go to work tomorrow with me that's what he would do oh so he didn't just whoop your ass right then and there no he he because uh I see seen my you know what I mean my dad whooped my brother's ass but I don't think he want to do it to us I I mean he did but but look he he would just go like all right just sleep early right now and you're going to go you're going to go work with me tomorrow so he I was like oh okay what was the work dude 4:00 a.m. at the get up we were swap meat oh so he made me straight up set up tents oh wow and then get up all the boxes and the dollies and he was just like you're going to be working with me what were you selling BB guns the ████ that's cool I got caught selling BB gun maybe that's lesson where it's like if you don't if you don't want to do good in school then you're going to be working then I think that's what it was I think but he didn't say anything yeah I was just so confused I like what the ████ yeah that generation didn't do a good job

26:10 explaining anything there was really not much explanation just like you're going to work but you know what that does that makes you like you said it makes you fear the consequence of just like being yelled at and then you just go how do I do this again and they don't find out I did it that's exactly what I did that's the difference it's just about them not finding out like a compulsive liar yeah it's not about not wanting to do the thing anymore it's just I need to do a better job I got really good at breaking the rules like you you ████ so many Secrets see that was me I was just like you know what I'm not going to sell it to that guy instead I'm going to sell it to somebody else that was that that it turned you into a freaking BB plug BB plug yuio car plug you name it that's tight sales man that was a plug yeah man
