On June 25, 2026, Hard Knocks Business published the compilation “Asking Millionaires for Their Best Business Advice!”, featuring four interviewees filmed in Austin, Texas, and Scottsdale, Arizona, including his interview.⁠[8][8]

He advised young entrepreneurs not to take themselves so seriously and to know why they are doing what they do: if the aim is only to feel that they are enough, no amount of money or achievement will make them feel so (video at 00:26).⁠[7]
