    How She Raised A Family As A Business Owner & Executive | BoaT#20

    My mom raised me and my twin brother while holding c-suite executive level positions at multiple companies and later starting her own business. She's the epitome of a successful mother, but even so, she struggled to be perfect and had to face a lot of hardship along the way. This is Episode #20 of Bax of All Trades, and it's a very special one for me. My mom's wisdom has helped shaped me into the person I am, and I hope it can help you as well.

    Why Nobody Likes the “Nice Guy” | BoaT#19

    Nice guys finish last. But why? I used to be a nice guy, thinking that if I was simply a nice person to my crush that she would like me back. Unfortunately for younger Bax, this isn't reality. In this video we discuss why nice guys finish last and how you can stop being the nice guy to become a more confident and attractive person (and maybe your crush will crush on you).

    Is College Worth it in 2024? | BoaT#18

    Is college worth it in 2024, or is it a scam? A couple years ago, I graduated from Georgia Tech with a degree in computer science. For me, college was one of the best decisions I have ever made.
