On This Week's Feedback Friday, We Discuss:- How do you get a job if you're a registered sex offender who's done your time and been officially cleared as posing no threat to society?
- While your significant other wants kids someday, you're undecided. You're young, but you don't want to waste their time. How long do you reasonably have to make the decision?
- How do you handle a two-faced ladder-climber in your company whose Machiavellian manipulations aren't as invisible as they seem to think they are?
- What can a high schooler do to network in the field they wish to pursue when it's a bit esoteric -- like biochemistry?
- A job promotion for more pay and research experience sounds great, but you're worried about losing the downtime that allows you to get homework done for your current course load. Should you choose freedom or finances?
- After past disappointments, your wife is unexpectedly pregnant. It's great news, but you've been training for a dream job that would take you away for the months around your baby's birth and the opportunity window is about to close since you're near the age cap. What's your best next move -- for yourself and your family?
- Life Pro Tip: Real wealth is about freedom. Money can help achieve these things, but there are plenty of people who make lots of money yet aren't free. Make choices that get you this kind of wealth, not just the money.
- A quick shout out to John M. Carr!

| 0:00.0 | Welcome to Feedback Friday. I'm your host, Jordan Harbinger, and I'm here with producer |
| 0:07.6 | Jason DeFilippo. On the Jordan Harbinger show, we decode the stories, secrets, and skills |
| 0:11.6 | of the world's most brilliant and interesting people and turn their wisdom into practical |
| 0:15.6 | advice that you can use to impact your own life and those around you. If you're new to |
| 0:19.8 | the show on Fridays, we give advice to you directly and answer listener questions. The |
| 0:23.5 | rest of the week, we have long form interviews and conversations with a variety of amazing |
| 0:27.6 | folks from spies to CEOs, athletes to authors to thinkers and performers. This week we had |
| 0:33.1 | journalist Michael Yon. He was covering the Hong Kong protests and what those might |
| 0:37.5 | mean for China and the rest of the world. Actually, funnily enough, well, maybe not funny |
| 0:41.7 | to him. He was not allowed entry back to Hong Kong. He left for a little while and they |
| 0:45.9 | barred him being allowed to end of the country again, made time magazine. So he's obviously |
| 0:52.0 | saying something the Chinese government does not like. And so that episode was full of, |
| 0:56.5 | well, those things probably. We also had Admiral McRaven from the vaults coming back on, |
| 1:01.2 | discussing what special operations teams can teach us that we might bring into our lives |
| 1:05.0 | and our businesses. Of course, our primary mission here on the Jordan Harbinger show is |
| 1:09.2 | to pass along experiences and insights to you. And that's what we're doing directly here |
| 1:13.8 | on Friday and every Friday on feedback Friday. We want to place just one brick in the structure |
| 1:18.8 | that makes up your life. That's really what this podcast is about. And you can reach us |
| 1:22.4 | Friday at Jordan Harbinger.com and toss your question in there. And I got to say, Jason, |
| 1:28.1 | I have been better. I am wildly, wildly hungover, which is not normal. I don't normally drink, |
| 1:36.4 | but I was hanging out with Ti, the tip Harris name drop. Yeah. Well, I'll tell you, the joke |
| 1:43.0 | wouldn't be as funny without it. But normally, yes, you have to be an a list celebrity in |
