Summary
In part 2 of this series, Chewy shares 5 more ideas that he wishes he received when he was 25 years old to help with getting the most out of life.
On this episode we discuss the following ideas:
- Why Chewy and his wife lived in a small apartment (one of Chewy's favorite "money moments").
- Why Chewy bought a car with cash and plans to drive it until the wheels fall off.
- Why Chewy never bought his wife an expensive wedding ring or had an extravagant wedding.
- Why Chewy chose to live in a modest home and waited for the right time to purchase a property.
- Chewy discusses that even though he may work a lot, the work he does is meaningful.

| 0:00.0 | All right, guys. So welcome to part two of this birthday message. I wish someone would have sent me when I was in my 20s. If you want to check out our sponsors and support the podcast, give them a look. Let's check out our buddies over at Epicroll, BJJ.com is the website. They make a ton of terrific gear, everything from geese and rash guards and shorts, t-shirts, all kinds of different merge. I really-gee gear to me it's the most comfortable and best-fitting no-gee gear that i've confined for my body type you know i'm a big i'm not like a i'm not a huge guy but i'm a thicker guy and it fits me just right and the material feels good like i i get sometimes other stuff and i don't like the way that it fits. I don't like the way the shorts fit. |
| 0:38.2 | Sometimes the material's kind of funky and so they make a really good product. It's why I get my rash guards made through them. I'm getting my geese made through them right now at my gym. If you guys want to check them out, you can go to their website at Epicrollbjj.com and the promo code is jujitsu 20 for 20% off the order. And guys, if you want to check out our sponsor, |
| 0:54.8 | Charles Webb, give them a look. |
| 0:56.2 | They're one of the OGs in the CBD space. Again, for me, CBD is one of those products that I use towards the end of the night, and I sort of lump it together in my mind as a recovery thing. They also have a CBN product, which can be really useful for trying to support your sleep. But, you know, they have a lot of different things, everything from the CBD, the CBN. |
| 1:13.5 | They also have functional mushroom products and they also have some different balms and rubs for sore muscles. You want to check it out. You can go to their website at charlesweb.com, and the promo code is jujitsu 30 for 30% off the order. And again, I just tell people with their supplements, try it out for yourself, see what you think. |
| 1:28.1 | Again, I use it. |
| 1:28.7 | I do like their products. |
| 1:29.7 | I'm not saying that because I'm like, hey, go. |
| 1:31.3 | It's like their products. I'm not saying that because I'm like, |
| 1:30.8 | Hey, this is such a great product. You have to use it. Just try it for yourself and see what you think. You know, the first time I came across CBD, I was like, this stuff doesn't work. This is just some random stuff, some snake oil. I used it given to me from a friend and I was like, oh, |
| 1:45.6 | huh, CBD actually does work. And then so I, This is just some random stuff, some snake oil. I used it given to me from a friend, and I was like, oh, |
| 1:45.6 | CBD actually does work. |
| 1:47.7 | And then so I, you know, we eventually sought out a partnership with a company. |
| 1:53.3 | Charles Webb is one of the best companies in the market when it comes to CBD products. |
| 1:57.2 | Also, guys, if you want to support the podcast directly, you can do so by going over to |

Also, if you want to get my daily email that I send out, the Chew Crew daily email, to help you roll longer and grow stronger. Kind of really what it is. Mostly like jujitsu and lifting diet and then a bunch of philosophy stuff and then random stuff. I threw out some real weird ones the other day. Everybody was like, what the hell is this guy talking about? I was talking about like things like random things that irked me. It was like daylight savings |
| 2:53.2 | time was one of them. I don't know about that. We got into male circumcision. Yeah. |
| 2:57.0 | It was funny. Like I got a lot of people saying, this is too much information. Like, fair enough. I was like, it's something that you go through as a parent. The decision some of us have to make for our boys. |
| 3:11.2 | One we struggle with. |
| 3:12.5 | We'll not struggle with. |
