lol... I figured they were married... and I stand by my statement... no way they fuck their wives more than 2-3 times a year (anniversary, valentine's, birthday or something).

Oh my god...what the hell is wrong with those men in the video. I must have lasted about 45 seconds before I turned off in disgust!

Those men are neutered...mentally as well as probably physically

I just hope no man watches that all the way through and pollutes their mind with such hippie garbage!

If he were so inclined, he could easily attract himself a lot of young, female, "spiritual" / New age groupies.

Just an aside, but I would not assume that the guy is all that rich. He probably does make a good living, but I wouldn't say top .1% by any means. Self help is a relatively small industry. It's really difficult to make a lot of money selling books. Even having a #1 best seller won't make you rich. Aside from the REALLY big names in self help (Tony Robbins, Wayne Dwyer, Steve Covey) I wouldn't assume too many of these guys are really rolling in it. Not hurting by any stretch, but not super wealthy either.

Like with Tucker Max. I assume people think he's really rich, but I am not sure. He had two books on the best seller list, but that'll pull in a few hundred thousand, total.

Good point.

He's definitely not as much of a household name as the guys you listed. I'd only heard of him because of my self-help enthusiasm (addiction) but I'd never read any of his books. (My inner 10 year old giggled at his name though.)

Compared to your average 20-40 y.o. non-materialistic, New Age, "spiritual seeker" woman, his wealth and status is stratospheric. But overall, you're right - 99.9% is probably an exaggeration.

Anyway, money details aside, my main point about Hendricks was that he is a relatively high-status, big dog in his niche. That would impress a lot of New Age groupie women and if he wanted to clean up in that area, he probably could. (At least prior to the video...)

I read some posting from Tucker on his web site (don't have the link) where he talked about some of his finances. I think he wrote it as a reaction to haters who said his movie tanked. Anyway, the sense I got was that TM's financial worth is like $1-2M. So it's legit, successful middle-class retirement money, especially at his age. But you're right - it sure isn't what people believe "movie star money" to be - private jets, giant houses, Lamborghinis, etc.

Yeah, $1-2 million is the upper end of what's reasonable to expect Tucker Max to have. Of course, the movie clearly did tank, but he probably got a big advance. Most of his money probably comes from an advance, plus speaker fees.

They probably have pre-written penetration apologies for when they make the bada bing. "I am sorry for lunging my purpled tipped spear into your quivering love mound. I am gracious for the momentary you have granted me."
