Give me like five minutes, you know, just kind of quick I'll let him on here Wasn't gonna give him much time, but I ran a schedule like today and trading spots with me have for him They had flight problems and he's taking a spot now It's day two it's the end of the day and he's got some sick stuff for you guys World's third best PUA right here good stuff man. Thanks. Come on. Cheers. Thank you. Cheers guys Wow guys Okay, where do we start? I'm I'm basically here because I've never been to Orlando before and I love Miami like you wouldn't believe like Miami like Absolutely love the place. I've got some great friends. Thank you. Who's from Miami here? Everyone raise your hand for Miami Okay, I love Miami and I wanted to come into your land when I heard this convention was going on and I was Pretty sure that most of the people that turn up here wouldn't actually tailor anything for people that actually under 21 So I thought I'd come up with a whole bunch of stuff tailored specifically for you guys But first I want to check how many of you are actually under 21 if you're over 21 raise your hand There we go wow awesome, huh? How cool is that? This is this is one of the things that you guys are going to realize it's about observation Right, and this is something that a lot of people make mistakes about in set They don't take the time to bother to work out what they're doing Imagine if I'd actually sat down and wrote a whole bunch of new material specifically for under 21s Bored it along here and then found out that everybody's over actually anyway, and you guys all quiet I love it when sin said how many of you guys have you know before game when you were going out to bars and everyone's like Oh, yeah, and he goes oh, you obviously you guys are too young. You couldn't have done that You know actually no I can do that. I'm old enough.  Um Where's my man there is that guy there no not behind you you Yeah, there we go He he asked me how I got into the game and sort of like what what process I went through So I'm gonna do a bit of a different introduction I'm actually gonna take you guys through a little bit of my journey about how I started, but I'm gonna start in the middle I Don't know what level you guys are at I don't know where you are, and I don't know if you've decided that you know You're just in your first legs of the game, and you're gonna become amazing or whether you know You've been in it for a while and now you're just trying to improve Um, I'm gonna warn you about the game the game is a very very dangerous hobby to have It's a very dangerous hobby in a number of ways a lot of people have spoken about you can lose your friends You really can when you realize your friends don't know the difference between amogging and you know Just being Pally and winging you yeah, dude You've known me for 15 years, and you've got to amog me isn't a mug I just asked if you wanted to come and play football tomorrow.  There was a choice of two stories one of my told all my friends earlier We decided that one's not the one to go with because it involves anyway It's it's bad It's really bad There isn't even a field report about that one because it's that bad and there isn't a field report about this one But I thought this one was a bit more socially acceptable So barely so I'm in a club and my my game's got to a level where I'm very comfortable I can open who I won I've got a pretty good close rate and I've there's about six girls in the club I've been gaming and actually decide you know what I don't want to close anybody There's no one here at the kind of level that I want to take home There's no tens here that aren't with anybody.   I was like I live three minutes away and the girl's like, okay Let me grab my friend. Are you kidding me? Are you kidding me? So she grabs her hot friend who's like a hot six whatever she grabs a hot There's two of them it counts so she grabs her She was a little bit anyway, so he grabs her friend and and off we run and I'm now pegging it out of the out of the club Right, I've got these two girls one's got fake tits and she's all right and the other one so we We get up we get upstairs we get out of the club I'm leaving the club and the owner of the club looks and he goes you're going home early tonight So we leave we get a cab now it's three sons all about logistics So I hail the first cab I can without 20 quid which is like $40 for like a two-minute cab ride It's worth that I'm getting a threesome And so pay for the cab and we're in the cab the three of us together and the girls start making out I have known these girls for about four and a half minutes and they're totally making out and I'm like This is gonna happen. This is it. This is my threesome Anyway, so we get back to my place now a couple of things have transpired here. It turns out. They're both a little bit drunk Anyone that is like no, we they were drunk. No, it's kind of obvious.  So Sometimes sometimes when you make a decision when you're not gonna take an HP 10 home All you're looking for is a personal masturbating machine and I had to so So we get we get back to we get back to my we get back to my place We start walking the door and HB hug throws up on my doorstep I've got both their hands. I think about it I do a quick calculation cut my losses drop HP six and take the other one into the room saw the threesome I'm still getting laid. She's got nice fake tits. So We get into the bedroom and then the weirdest thing happens now This is a warning for all those that want to get into game this stuff can happen to you She says hit me I'm like, no She's do it do it rape me.      I'm pinning her down. She's you're raping me No, I'm not how the other girl she's thrown up in the front room now.  This is a genius idea this Everyone's like why was doggie style invented? Why was that the old way so their hands and feet are occupied anyway? So she's pinned down. I'm taking her from behind and and at this point I'm just like I just want the whole thing to be over and done with and you know Some of you think about all that tantric sets and all that all that David shade stuff You guys mean studying to last for ages. It doesn't work when you want a quickie there I'm trying to get it done within two minutes. It's taking in ages. Anyway, so and then my doorbell rings And I'm like this can't get any worse. So I'm like it's open my flatmate walks in Flatmate walks in she's drunk on the floor. He goes dude. Who's the girl mate? I'm kind of busy What are you doing? Oh? So finish off the job go outside Kid you not the neck. We fall asleep the next day. We wake up in the morning The girl gets up. She's getting dressed. She's got a really nice body.  I didn't know her name But but that stuff scary man that stuff's happening in field now There are guys out there in the field dying and getting beaten up for you guys to learn this stuff They do this for you man. They lay their lives on the lion But there's some scary things out there. My point is okay, so you guys aren't under 21 But my point is maybe you don't want to get into the game. Okay? Let's give you a bit of an introduction.  Let me give you some definitions.  All right, I'll give you one. I checked out an urban dictionary. So it's probably right A dweeb is somebody who's a complete no-hoper doesn't do anything chills out indoors doesn't really have any aspirations Doesn't try hard at all. It's a dweeb a nerd is somebody who gets completely absorbed in something They'd like analyze every single little bit of it They want to know all of the information in order to help them achieve something However, it is always in a subject that will ultimately have direct financial gain web design mathematics physics their nerds are geekies a Geekies something that's exactly the same as the nerd except for something that has no financial gain for example video games Dungeons and Dragons and game.  You'll hear studying how to get laid That's not really gonna help you in life. It really isn't it's not gonna help you get rich unless you're planning on becoming a pickup Artist this is this is the fact of the matter Whereas there are 60 or 70 people in this room myself included. I'm proud to admit. I'm a geek I'm geeky than probably anyone else here if you guys don't know why when you're rolling a character stat You have to roll 46 and remove the lowest number then you really are well behind me That's a basic fact The truth of the matter is that you guys you've all come here to try and to try and learn this skill And although there's six or 70 of you here There are billions getting laid without the help here Absolutely without it You don't need the systems you don't need anything and I'm the biggest geek because I'm sitting there trying to analyze and like We're talking to sin and like and like we break stuff down together And like we're talking about all the different methods you guys have her break rapport and you'll analyze like what's all about But the truth is there is a way you can do this without even knowing a system You do not need to do that None of you need to did you have some people get so geeky at this they wander around in goggles And they ask girls who lies more and like other strange routines and they learn magic tricks and stuff You know that's really weird, man Can you imagine? Can you imagine if I told you before you learn the game? Listen, I can help you get good.   You got to be confident True story Amanda went out to the bar earlier on this guy is talking go So what's all the congress convention thing going on? She was all you know It's about guys are learning about relationships and how to get chicks if we got to be confident. I have a Jaguar Yeah, right You get laid There is there is a truth to it You can learn all the ins and outs if you want if you want to be a geek like me and like all the other PUA's here You can get into the ins and outs of it. I can tell you some random facts I could I could literally break down qualification because I'm that sad and I could go through the point and explain to you Not just what qualification is or how it works, but how to micro calibrate every single individual piece of qualification But would you really want that? Okay, this guy does this guy this guy's yes All right in that case in that case when we come to the question if you ask me I'll break down how you can make somebody qualify themselves and the pattern you can use to ensure they follow it. However There is a way of getting laid that's easier That doesn't need any of that and anyone here that's under 21 anyone here that's at that young age Now is the perfect time Now is like it's the great time to do this sin made a point of saying don't get into it Don't do it you don't have to So what I'm going to do is I'm going to tell you three qualities This isn't a three-part model. This is just a fact that there are three qualities that naturals have If you guys can emulate these three qualities, I promise you your success rate will go up You will probably not be f-closing Angelina Jolie within the next two weeks It's not that good But it will make you a natural I kid you not this is a very simple system that will make you a natural Where's the catch everyone says if it was that easy Why doesn't everyone do it? It's because there is effort that takes that needs to be put into place But the effort isn't sitting down in front of a forum reading specific lines or creating routine stacks The effort comes from actually creating these three parts to your life and ensuring you have them I got this through studying every single bloody natural that is hit on my girlfriend over the last year and a half Every single one has these qualities and I didn't analyze it she did And she went you know what they've all got this in common So we started looking at it and every natural I've ever met has these things So what are they? Well, you'd be right if you guessed that confidence is on the list It bloody well is you need confidence if you don't have confidence you have no hope you need confidence What else do you need? You need abundance you need women in your life Guess what going out and sergeing with groups and guys in clubs is weird really weird When four guys turn up, I kid you not I went out to a I haven't been out on Sarges for a very long time I've got a rule if you want to come sergeing with me you bring five to ten girls or you're not allowed to come It's a very strict rule that I have right This is a lot of people are well aware of this rule when I first came out in the community I said it and everyone went that's impossible I went really and I showed video footage of myself out with 120 women that came out with me It's very very easy if you're good, and you know what you're doing and most people aren't that good And I'm like if you're not gonna bring any girls Why should I let you come out with me because you're gonna hit on my girls. They're mine bring your own bring your own and then we'll trade It's it's kind of like Pokemon, but you don't have to catch them all All right, so so you know they've got to bring they've got to bring some girls with them Otherwise they can't do it and they're like no pop that's you know I just wanted to come sergeing with you. I'm like well. Yeah, you got bring girls come sergeing and they're like well No, really. I just wanted to learn from you I mean ah how many students ask me that and that's why I tell you to bring out five if you can bring out five to ten girls It shows me you've got enough of the pieces in place But on that one night alone I'll show you how to finish the rest of the game and you'll have completed it But most poor struggle to just get that first five or ten Abundance is incredibly important. I'm sorry. I completely digress. I went out I went out sergeing for the first time in a very long time Me and my girlfriend are in town. We had a friend over and we thought we'll just hang out and these four poors turned up to come And join us These are great guys. I don't I don't want to insult any of them one of them I think is is really up there with probably will have very good game within a year or so He's he's that kind of level in fact He's exactly where site was my first met him site. He's gonna be very good Everyone look at this man here with the blue hair a kid You're not that guy that guy with any year. He's gonna be amazing Making making a point. I'm calling it out. So Now the other guy that was there. He was a short guy And he was he was quite friendly and chatty. He was going around and he was opening set And he wasn't really doing very good and he went up to me. He went, you know, I'm having difficulty hooking I was wondering what you think my problem might be I'm gonna go out on a limb here and it might be something to do with the plastic penis. You have stopped behind your ear I kid you not.  He thought his problem was tonality I'm like, dude, he goes every time a girl talks to me. She just sort of like looks off to the left She's looking behind your ear And this is this is the serious problem and he wonders why girls don't want to hang out with him When was the last time you met a girl and you said, hey, do you want to come and hang out with me?  Oh, there's four guys that have just come out to have a couple of quiet drinks by themselves and chat to themselves and not Socialize with women and you know, they've left all their wives at home They're coming out for a lads night out and have no intention of pulling anyone They think there's four guys out on the pool. Which one's the most most desperate.  Whether you are banging them or not they all think you are Every girl is looking at you thinking he's so ugly. Why do they like him? He must be somebody special They all knew how easy is that abundance? Second most powerful quality and the third the ability to sexually escalate Let's talk about these qualities and imagine we only have two of them at any point and I'll show you the different types of person first we have the person who has Abundance and he has confidence, but he doesn't have the ability to sexually escalate This is the student that turns up to a boot camp and says but I've got loads of female friends And I can't do anything about it. They don't like me No, because they're so comfortable with you because you never sexually escalate You never tell them you like them and it's gone on so long, but now they don't want to ruin the friendship So you have so many girls in your life. You're confident and bubbly and the girls love you.  I love him. He's gay, but he's great You know we should hook him up with this guy like that's why you're not sexually escalating They think there's something wrong with you They're female. They expect you to hit on them. They're almost disappointed if you don't All right, let's take another quality. Let's remove a different one. Let's remove Let's remove abundance in this case. Let's just have confidence and the ability to sexually escalate That's a poor right there I'm out for me. Yeah, baby. Come up here from the train. Yeah, I'm drunk. Oh, just kiss me. Ah RSD baby Like that's and that doesn't work It doesn't work because the girl looks at you and thinks you're hitting on me and You've got no other women around you. I know why and None of the others want to come and join you so that doesn't work All right What if you have the ability to sexually escalate and abundance, but you don't have confidence well in this situation you've got a whole bunch of female friends and When you get them alone, you're capable of sexually escalating so you get the hugs Get the scum from the bottom of the pool of friends You like take out the toddlers and all the weak ones, you know But all the all the big beautiful girls you can't close and they're the three types of guys that really that you get You've got one of these problems Maybe two of them. Maybe three of them if you've got three problems You've got World of Warcraft and you know probably got a level 70 character So I'm not gonna mess because you might come after my warlock now The simple facts of the matter is if you can develop these three qualities, you will get laid think about it What guy who's confident and surrounded by lots of women with the ability to sexually escalate won't get laid? obviously can Obviously can So how do you guys go about getting that? So I'm gonna focus on teaching you these three things today But this is all irrelevant if you guys don't go out there and do it if you just listen to me It's pointless You may as well go to a World of Warcraft convention and then how to up your character a few more points because That's you know, you're gonna get more out of that to be fair Before you guys stop writing down any notes I've done some very nice things for you because I'm used to these conventions and I like going to them I'm not gonna try and sell you guys anything. I'm really not interested in it I'm much more interested in helping you guys get good. That's why I'm very lucky the company I work with a very good at what they do because it means that when I get to come out here I get to give you guys free stuff if you guys go to pua training.com forward slash under 21.html There's a whole bunch of free stuff there, especially for everyone here at the convention. You can just download all for free That's so the pua training guys set that up for you guys the guys. I'm doing the boot camp so at the moment pua training.com forward slash under 21.html If you guys go there, there should be a whole bunch of stuff If it doesn't work today, it'll work within the next 48 hours, but it should be there now And that's all there for you guys. There's a whole bunch of just different material There'll be a lot of notes about the stuff that I normally talk about and some other stuff We just threw it all in there just for you guys to have If you guys are interested in any of the stuff that I do You can check out aFCadam.com and you can see a whole load of crap about me.  Let's talk about how you can have all of them Let's talk about confidence The good news with confidence is there's a whole bunch of hypnosis CDs You can buy and they're only like seven hundred dollars or whatever and you can watch them And they will guarantee to get you over your fear of the approach That's a bit weird, isn't it? Let's take it back to a normal situation because I like trying to keep things a bit normal So let's go back to normal and let's think about the last time you weren't very confident You know what I'm having to learn to do at the moment is to drive on the wrong side of the road Which is the right side of the road as far as you guys are concerned.  I'm not you're not in your country. Damn it. So And I'm trying to learn this from scratch and I kid you not it's bloody scary and I have a confidence issue over this I'm not very comfortable doing it.  No couple of people you guys are superhuman. No way at the boot camp.  I remember I was like I was sitting there That's the next to me. He's like are you okay? Don't talk to me. I'm concentrating and he goes the car hasn't started yet All right. I was just cracking myself. I was scared So what I did obviously is because I had this fear of the approach of driving because I had this weakness this lack of confidence I bought a $700 CD and a couple of audio programs and went to a couple of seminars on how to remove my car anxiety Obviously, I didn't instead what I did is just did it Because if you want to conquer a fear The best way of doing it is to actually get out there and do it now There's a psychological tool called systematic desensitization What that means is rather than just going and doing it you do it in a small way first So if you have a fear of approaching start by talking to shop people they have to be nice. They don't they get fired Talk to them Then talk to old hot women by old hot women. I mean 60 and 80 They were hot once and they remember what it's like But now no one hits on them anymore So now they're really friendly and approachable.  It's doing it that makes it change.  I don't have time to game. I'm like, I'm sorry You don't mix with females He's like, well, no, no, I work all the time. You work 24 seven and don't have any females at your work You're just no Adam. You don't understand. What don't I understand? females coffee shops car attendance bars Co-workers office next door the local shop where you go in the middle of it your local chilies Chili's is a great restaurant by the end of molten cake. It's incredible the molten chocolate cake. Oh, yeah, amen Amen, it is a good cake.  I haven't lost a set over eating a chocolate cake. Yeah, it hasn't affected my ability Might do the eat chocolate cake. It's good Because it tastes good. It's not it's not healthy. Anyway, I'm completely digress So but the point is if you're not actually doing it, you're not gonna improve So do it stop kind of excuses stop going to conventions next time you're gonna go for a convention for four days Just go and talk to a girl for half an hour and you'll do better And it's probably worth more money even if you have to pay her for a drink to talk to you It's probably worth it start off with start building up slowly And then then eventually after you've done 10 and the girl says to you Hey, you're gonna buy me a drink say no, I bought the last 10 girls drinks. I'm not gonna buy you one It's funny you learn you learn from your mistakes sin said it is a very good point you learn from mistakes So the only way you're gonna get over this confidence is to do it confidence comes from competence The more you do it the better you feel I've got a friend that's scared of heights this weekend as we speak He's going skydiving Do you think he took a CD of approach anxiety to get over that?  There's a there's a chick at the back there She's a friend of one of the guys here. Just open her like just do it like she'd love it. I'm sure She's waving everyone got an eye. Why? That's the invitation you got that's like a open invitation there one of you's in But by numbers alone if she turns down like one in 20 guys somebody's getting it I'm kidding. I'm joking, but but truthfully Truthfully open every single female like you guys should be practicing all the time. It's important, you know, open my girlfriend as well It's literally if you're not practicing talking to girls you don't have to think of every set as you have to close them I had this great thing. I got an email again today This scares me every since thing is TV show the rules of seduction. I get credited with the Starbucks opener I'm like, are you kidding me just because in the TV show? I was like walking down I always just open something cash. I was like, hey, do you know anything? There's Starbucks is and I go I've had like eight emails now being Adam your Starbucks open. That's genius You're so good at this like I've used that so often. I just don't know wait. Where'd you transition from that? You're kidding me. Anyway, so yeah, the truth is that's bloody scary and I had this student and I was like, all right, buddy I want you to use my Starbucks opener go over there ask that girl whether near a Starbucks open areas He's went when there is Starbucks is he's like, I can't do it. Why not? I've got approach anxiety Like are you kidding me? I want a coffee. You just ask her where Starbucks is. He's like, no, I can't I can't I just can't do it I've got approach anxiety. I was like, let me ask you something two years ago before you learned the game If you wanted a coffee, how would you find a Starbucks? He goes, well, I'd ask someone So now it's game now you can't ask somewhere a Starbucks is because you have to sleep with them Just practice talk to people not every set is of clothes. It doesn't matter. No one's perfect And no one's watching no one knows just ask everybody whether there is Starbucks is good practice getting to talk to people You know transition from there and take it onwards Just get get into the habit of talking to people. I promise you approaching tonight will vanish before I do I do a lot of high pressure sets a lot of very high pressure sets There was this one I did for Maxim magazine recently. I kid you not I don't know a single P way that's ever had to go through this I'm gonna send out on my list at some point soon, but it was if you Google for AFC Adam versus Maxim I think you can find it and it was the most hard thing I've ever had to do and Before those sets before I do any of them. I always do five warm-ups I want you to go up to five random girls and I give them a compliment and run I Run not because I think they're gonna hit me but because I don't want to hear what they have to say I didn't open them because I wanted to open them. I open them so I'd get into the zone of opening So I don't really care about what they have to say. So I say, hey, I love your jacket. It's really nice She's like well Hey, I love your shoes the way they work there. It's great. What? And so I do my five and after I've done five. I'm like, oh, I can open anyone Because you don't have to close if you open Anyone can open opening is the easy bit. It's the next bit. That's hard. So anyone that's like, oh, I've got approach anxiety It's really tough. No isn't like that's the easiest part the hardest part.  Freak me. Right me.   That's what it takes You wake up next to him in the morning when they've got like their hairy legs and after they've gone And then they hold the covers down. You're like, why are you holding the covers down? And she's like, I'm a girl.  Of course.  So she's like, okay. Yeah, I am. I'm a goddess. That's right I'm great that guy thinks I'm great to herself She doesn't want to lower her value or her self-esteem by letting you know that she actually looks like crap And that's why negging works because it shows that you understand that girls aren't super attractive all the time That sometimes they get a bit manky They do what a girl really wants is to know that if she is a bit manky that you'll still love her That's really what you want. That's why you can't go around idolizing girls There's probably a lot of other reasons that you've probably been taught They're probably true as well, but I find this one's easier and quicker. So it works for me. So don't idolize them There's no need so at that point when you get talking to them You start realizing you start to learn like the different the different things about them who here Like darker girls raise your hands if you like darker girls like Hispanics or African like more hands are raising Okay, did you know they're hairy? It's true very hairy and did you know when they sweat they stink It's true. Just because they're darker. They tend to have hair like hairier bodies who here likes blondes big breasts and stuff like that They're not very clever. No, that's not true. It's not trying to get flayed for that It's the peroxide. No, but you know, but the point is they've all got different issues You know most blondes are fake blondes. They have dyed hair every so often they get roots and they look like skunks Every so often you and they'll be like I have to get my hair done. Do you know how long it takes? Actually, it's for them to have their hair done. Do you have any idea? I have sat with a girl while she was having her hair dried and she didn't even have all her hair dried She had a strip hours What eight hours? She think I've got a pill if she told me that when I first met I wouldn't put up for that I wouldn't sign up for that.  They just want to be told they're great They just want to be Accepted for exactly who they are without any heirs or being told they're amazing. Yeah, that's it So once you over that you have your confidence down you'll be used to talking to women You'll be used to mixing them And then we can talk about the next point Abundance This is the one that PUAs mess up Who here actively surges raise your hands? Actively goes out gaming raise your hands. Keep them up for a second. Okay. Now. I want you to put them down if So put them down if in the last year you haven't number closed 60 girls So a lot of people keep their hands up. Okay, cool. Everyone put your hands on cuz it just the smell. No, I'm kidding Poor guy next to you.  You got it. All right So the truth is you've got at least 60 phone numbers. Okay, I'm not gonna make you guys talk about your level of skill I just need to be very honest with yourself How many of those girls do you still talk to? Think about it. I Know a lot of PUAs if they can't f-closer or date to her The number just gets stored in the phone Eventually it becomes one of those numbers of I've got a thousand girls phone numbers in my phone All right How many of them will pick up if you phone? Because that's the better question, isn't it? It doesn't matter how many numbers you've closed. What matters is Do they want to talk to you? Because if they don't I don't care how many numbers you have check this I Have at my prime. I had four thousand phone numbers How many of them were respond were responsive? About three thousand five hundred people take at one point now I'm down to about 600 Facebook contacts That will respond To test it if you email any single one of those girls On my Facebook They'll tell you how great I am. I'm not a kidding Not bragging I'm putting it out there. How many other PUAs would be like do it? I'm telling you now do it feel free feel free to contact them and ask them Promise you whoever you ask on there with exception Maybe about maybe about 50 out of this. I've actually got 750 friends or something I think it's about 50 that wouldn't most of my go most of the girls on there are just female friends of mine That will respond It's my abundance When I go back to London If I write message to all of those girls and say I've decided I'm going clubbing on This day who wants to come with me? I have seen over 250 girls turn up at the same time just because I'm there That's because when you message that many they will all attend I Kid you not on my birthday last year. I tested this And I invited every single girl I know out to my birthday party My six closest friends I told I would be wearing a white suit with a red shirt and a white tire and they had to wear red dresses We went to dinner first. So I went to dinner with six girls all hot in red dresses And then we went to a nightclub or another 250 girls were waiting to see me and then we walked into the club. The club gave us free alcohol Miss Brazilian UK. How do you do that by the way? How can you have like Miss Brazil UK? That we get that all the time in England Miss India UK like that's so random like they just make it up because it's like everyone wants to be beautiful I'm sure anyway, it doesn't matter the point is I rocked up at the club and Miss Brazil UK came up to me because the competition was on at the Same time and she said who are you? And I went I'm Adam nice to meet you and she's like You're famous aren't you now in fairness? I had six gorgeous girls in red dresses following me wherever I went And I was in a white suit with a red top hat And I told her no, I'm the cleaner the toilet cleaner and she went you're lying No, they just really like me here. I'm really good. I'm like always I wash people's hands for them like I'm good at my job She's lying your celebrity.  You probably don't Anyway at the point is that's my abundance. Now, how did I get the girls to want to speak to me? How did I get them to want to talk to me? This is gonna come as a shock. I Didn't try to sleep with them.  I know he's sleeping with all of them Why doesn't he want me? They will think that individually. It's great. Do what happens then?    You can't say that clear Wednesday It was really funny But but stupid and and in the past anyway, so so the point is I've got abundance Just by having the girls there everyone assumes I'm a somebody and how do I get the girls there? Why not hitting on them? I'm the one guy that doesn't hit on them. I a true story a lot of this is behind me now I'm working on much better things. I'm doing a lot more theory. I've gone back to the basics I understand the psychology behind attraction. I'm very very happy with my girlfriend I'm completely exclusive anyone that's wondering because it's really annoying every seminar people go So how do you think about him gaming other girls? And she's like he doesn't okay? That's what you think. No, I really don't I'm completely Exclusive my girlfriend. I'm probably the happiest I've ever been and last year we went to Vegas for a birthday And while we were there we were there with all her female friends. Now. This is a true story So it's every seminar. I love saying it. I have seen all of her best friends pee It's true So out in Vegas with her friends her and a couple of other guys and all the girls are getting changed in the bedroom And it's just like out of a fancy movie.  No, they're all they're all they're all getting changed I've got their boobs and they're peeing and I'm going in I walk into the bathroom I'm like, oh, you know what? I'm just thinking I start talking to one of the girls. I'm peeing I like did I talk about your peeing? I'm here to talk about this other thing. Listen and so blah blah blah blah I keep talking to her. She's like, okay, and so we're having a conversation. She's peeing We're having a conversation It's because I wasn't fazed by her peeing or her nakedness or her boobs because I've seen it so often It doesn't matter. Meanwhile, we get a knock at the door. There's a dude at the door like, yeah What do you want? We want to come in your car. We're all naked in here. Adam's in there Adam doesn't count That's a very powerful place to be I know a lot of girls That've only slept with one guy before and me, but I didn't count The key point is you want to be the guy that doesn't count I Am every girl in my life's gay best friend who's straight. I Get to go in changing rooms with them and help them sort out their clothes. I saw right. It's just Adam slap her bum Just out of it doesn't matter. What am I doing? Sexually escalating.  I want to sleep.  It's okay because it's just Adam How does she know that I've slapped the bums of other girls? She's seen me do it how she's seen me do it because I invite her out With her friends and my other female friends to the same place They all meet each other. They know each other. I have so many people say to me Adam How do you manage multiple long-term relationships? I kid you not. I once managed 14 girls at once That's a logistical nightmare. It's absolutely impossible. How could you do that? Well? It was easy. They knew about each other There was no lying or hiding. I was like babe. I can't see tonight I've got Jane coming over at four, but like seven. That's what for seven. All right, that'll do you such a player It's okay because I don't lie to any of them about it They know who I am and because of my abundance if everyone else accepts it they accept it I'm I'm running my own time. I've been warned. So I'm gonna have to move on to sexual escalation I could talk about this for ages. I'm really sorry. I can't I love stuff like this So I'm gonna move on sex escalation and it literally is a fact of what you do and What other see you do you can get away with but there is a difference between Good sexual escalation and bad sexual escalation and it's the same thing about the toilet and the people coming in there It's a matter of how much value you give it when I walked in on the girl that was peeing I gave it no value whatsoever I am now going to do a live demonstration for you of good Kino and bad Kino. Can I have a volunteer, please? Oh That's even better. Okay, so what we'll do is we'll keep going till tape and then after that we'll do question on session So everyone come around and pull us out here All right, that was my that was my ganks to Miami agree and that's a secret Miami handshake everyone from Miami They knew what was going on if one else you guys didn't so I'm lying So I'm gonna show you good Kino and bad Kino here. We have a PUA Now what we're gonna do here is we're gonna show him. This is good Kino. Okay? All I did there was I gave it no value whatsoever. Notice how I didn't look at the point. I was touching I just tapped him probably hasn't even realized that what I did was touch his breast. This does work on girls So now I'm gonna completely freak him out. What I'm gonna do now is I'm gonna do exactly the same motion I'm gonna touch you in the same place, but I'm now gonna give it meaning. I'm gonna give it value I'm gonna show that I care about it watch all we've got to do is tell me as soon as you feel a little bit Uncomfortable as soon as you get a little bit uncomfortable. Let's know How weird is that right you guys see that yeah, okay, but but look I can get away of it afterwards because I didn't care about it And I've got I when I was when I was a when I used to run routine game So every PUA starts a routine game anyone that used to the routine game now go natural You just need natural don't about routine Remember you started a routine game as well most people start with it don't hate on it And you know, I was gonna be completely honest like I did and I had a whole boob touching routine It was really funny. I used to go like this like you're so funny I'd do a physical break in rapport now. I do it to try and get a fight I've got what you're gonna take that from me.  It's more of a copying motion. Give it a go No, no like this Okay, thank you guys So it's amazing what you can get away with if you don't give it value and you can take this right through to the F-close now, there's a bit of a routine that I do on some my talks. I haven't done for a while So I'm gonna hit for you guys and it's about how you bypass LMR Okay, so we're gonna talk very very quickly and then we'll do the Changing of the tapes because I wouldn't want to interfere with that so Bypassing LMR. It's true story. I'm in a club of the girl What you'll notice throughout this story is one I will speak incredibly fast I'll do it because it's fun to you'll notice that throughout the story I give the girl no value nor do I ever Explain what's going on. I'm constantly sexually escalating without telling her that's what I'm doing So I never give the game away that's important that way if she ever tries to call me out on it I can just keep plowing through it So I meet this girl in the club with dancing with vibing everything's going good and I say you know what I'm going home And we both go back to the check-in to get our coats and everything and I take off my two motorcycle helmets I have a Vespa in London, which I sold and it's very depressing But I used to have two helmets for it and when I went clubbing I brought two helmets with me Who knows why I brought two helmets with me? Yes Logistics because if I didn't plan on how I was going to take someone home How would I do it? It's illegal in England to take a go on your bike with that helmet if I didn't bring two helmets I would be screwed. I would have no way of getting to go home So every night I went out I took two helmets with me and every night I went back and I had somebody else to carry the other one For me other logistics. I didn't really have somewhere for the second helmet So I needed somebody to bring back me, but that's precisely what so sitting in the thing I take my two helmets. I make no motion whatsoever to take a home I know that my bike is a DHB. I take my two helmets. She's like, oh god. What's the other helmet for? I'm like, well, it's my friend I gave him a lift into town and now I've got to take the other one back Which is really heavy on the bike and quite annoying. She's like, could you give me a lift home? Now am I buying into her frame at this point?  I don't even know where you live She's like, I live at blah blah blah blah blah. It's not that far. I'm still not gonna do it I'm tired and I can't be bothered.  Give me the phone Come on, it'll be so much fun. Well, I did want to take you on my bike But no, that's just so annoying. There's no way I'm gonna give you a lift home. Please give me the phone Please come on. Come on. Give me your phone. A real man would give me a lift home. Fine. I'll give you a lift home I give her the other helmet. She takes the other helmet and off we go We get on the bike. Am I buying into her frame? Wait and see. We get on the bike turn the bike on She's on the back of we go. We start driving. We're going down the roads We're speeding along and we pull up outside my house. She says, what are we doing here? I thought you said you're gonna take me home. I am in the morning I told you I was tired. Just a compromise. So We go we go back to my house. We get into my house and she's like, I don't know how I feel about this I was like, you don't have much choice. It's okay. I'm a gentleman I never sleep with a girl on the first night. What I'm gonna do is I'm gonna make myself a bed on the couch Because I'm a gentleman and I'm gonna give you my bed I have a big double bed and it's very comfortable.  It's a very nice gentle little thing So then I lie down next to her and we start talking. We continue the conversation and the night continues as we're talking She says you're only in here because you want to sleep with me.  I told you I never ever sleep with a girl on the first night But I am gonna continue to tease you and turn you on I start rousing her and stroking her getting her even hornier At this point, I start to slip my hand inside and I start bringing her off at this point I'm building her up to orgasm. Oh my god. That feels so good. That feels so good That feels so good. I bring up right up to the point of orgasm and stop. She looks to me and says What are you doing? I'm like, I don't think I said you were gonna orgasm I seem to definitely remember telling you I was going to tease you She's like that's not fair like tough. I couldn't care less. I'm not getting it. You're not getting it So keep turning on again. Oh, I feel so good. She said come on. Come on You know, you have to let me have an orgasm. No way. I never sleep with a girl on the first night at this point She thinks cleverly. How can she get me back? She knows the perfect thing to do She grabs my trousers and tries to rip off me. No, get off woman. Don't take my trousers. No, I'm gonna I'm gonna say no, don't do it. Okay fine. So she takes off the trousers At this point she starts to go down and I'm like, oh god Now you will be tempted at this point to give in and have an orgasm if you want to fair enough better not to So don't do it. She's like, hi, I've got you now You know, I've got you you build her up to orgasm.  It's a rule and I never break it She thinks about it. She goes aren't rules meant to be broken. You go, okay So true story for anyone for anyone that doesn't the questioning anyone's got further stuff Like I said, if you go to a fc adam.com, there's a whole bunch of new stuff. I'm updating They'll be like there's there's options to go into like a forum that isn't there yet But it will be it actually is there but it's secretly hidden anyone that can find it You're welcome to join but it will be made a bit more of a feature of you can ask questions there I do lots of regular writing many of you may or may not know I'm a regular columnist for askmen.com. I do all of their help stuff for the UK You can actually find that on my website I am I just started doing a radio show with Thundercat on Thundercat's seduction layer if you guys want to check it out It's like two hours long. It's some of the funniest stuff ever We were we were like we were filming this like recording it earlier on and it really is hysterical because Thundercat knows all the community guys So we're talking about that I write for pick up podcast as well I write for my own site There's a couple of forums on the internet that I write for as well as the pua training stuff All this stuff is free. Don't pay for material be geeks and download it for free It's better. Anyway, um, so what we're gonna do is we'll do the the Q&A stuff for anybody that's interested Anyone's got a question raise your hand Yes, you I saw you first this dude here with the super cool looking hair When you sexually escalating with a girl, yes, how do you let her know that you don't want to sleep with her? I mean, isn't that kind of counterintuitive what I tell her while touching her up. It's amazing It's very counterintuitive if you turn around somebody and you say to them, okay Like for example, I've got a very very quick thing. Can I just grab you very quickly? I don't even know your name What's your name? Well, okay. Well very quickly. I want to show you something. It's basically a form of disqualification So you're sexually escalating using disqualification There's a very simple kiss clothes routine that everyone can find I did a 60 second K clothes on the internet Just come up here for a second So I'm gonna do my my lie kiss clothes routine.   Yeah, so you tell him you're not gonna do it But your body and everything's saying differently. It's the same as like when a girl's going no I don't watch you. I don't watch you, but she does yeah, it's the same thing I'm doing the same thing. No, I don't want you get off me. Stop giving me the best head of my life It's the same thing. So what you're saying and what you're doing are very different She picks up that women are really good at picking up on like our physical cues So she's like no, I know you do sin had exactly the same thing with the girl that he was talking about It's the same thing.  Is that the only question? I'm yes. Go for it. Dude over here with the cool t-shirt So when you're first starting out just like a little bit about building up your social circle I'm just say a handful of people the best way of building up I'm gonna give you two very very quick ways of doing it one just invite all the girls out that you know and don't invite any guys You may only end up with two girls start with that Then when you're out with those two girls then game and meet other girls and they go Are you guys are so awesome? You should totally come out of us next time and invite them out to the next menu That's one way of doing it the cheating way in the way I started because I went to a nightclub and I saw the hottest girls in there I went up to them and I said hey once you guys can help me I'm really good at sort of like picking up chicks.  I think that's really funny While this is going on do you mind if I come and hang with you You know a few more times and you know, I promise I won't hit on any of you guys I won't use any of my super techniques guarantee to get me to sleep with you if I hang with you And so we had a deal me and these 12 stupidly hot party girls But I wouldn't sleep with them if I could hang around with them. So what happened was after a year I'd slept with about four of them But the point is that by the time they're hanging around me What happens is I'm going out clubbing with the hottest girls on the planet me and 12 hot girls Every other female in there sees me with 12 hot girls and says wow He's amazing and they start hitting on me the 12 hot girls look at me and go you're right You do know how to pick up chicks They have no idea it's off the pre-selection that they're generating and eventually they start competing for me It's passive game. It's the best form of game. So yeah, that's another way of doing it You just need a group of female friends to hang around with so I would assume that you then hang out with perhaps With the coolest guys that would happen to be with the hottest girls Most of the guys don't hang with the girls You'll be surprised by this But most of the guys they want to talk about football and they want to go down the pub and they want to drink So I'll go and hang out with their girls going clubbing in expensive clubs. So your circle was mostly female Yeah, you get that if you look at the hot groups of girls look at photos on Facebook of hot girls They just hang around other hot girls They got to clubs and they get millionaires to spend money on drinks the amount of free drinks I've had because a girl I had a guy we had a joke and we said hey Would it be possible to get guys to give us money via the girls? So we said to the girls I bet you can't convince those guys to pay for your cab for their home Do you know what 10 times 15 is? Bloody good money for a night's work All the girls guy and get 15 bucks for a cab ride home You're not with a hundred and fifty dollars and the girls give it to you because they managed to pull off the challenge And you're like, oh wicked if you get all of them to do it It's amazing. It's seriously turning the girls power. I wanted to show you guys There's so many other things you can use girls for like you can use them to like a mug It's like the best form of a mugging on the planet. I get given an example. I do this great demo Who's like the biggest scariest guy in here? We've got somebody big and scary.  Who's the hottest girl in here that's male? Anybody yeah, you'll do Yeah, yeah, good. I use I use yeah, I'll get this guy up. Are you stealing him? Okay, I'll steal the guy in the yellow sir Frankie. You've got Frankie says relax. That's awesome. Okay Fair enough, I'm gonna judge Hopefully you've cleaned it since the last one war it Okay, so right if so if you imagine this is the big a-mog guy, right and this is the girl Now imagine he's big and scary and I'm like this tall But I wouldn't I wouldn't want to mess with that. So how can I get rid of him? Watch this. I need another girl and take you again because you're awesome Okay, so what I do is rather than having to deal with him directly I can aim on him completely by getting another hot girl and I'll be talking to you. I'll be hate listen So cool. You're awesome. I love the top your words. We can listen. Can you do me a favor? That's my friend over there and she's coming out like with like another group of friends We don't really know each other very well But I know a friend and she's dating a guy and this guy here is hitting on her and like that's going to go down Really when she's had a bit to drink So could you go in there just like float with them a bit just to get him off of her and then eventually You know I'll get rid of her and then what happens is you convince this girl to go in and talk to the guy Now the guy's having the time of his life. He's never had two girls at once before Oh, but look see his body language lock her out.  Let's have a round of applause.  I'll move in there. He's hitting on her I'll come up and go. Thanks ever so much. I really appreciate it. Oh, you're awesome He's not interested in her whatsoever. So he leaves and I'm off with her Thank you very much Okay So so by having the pre-selection of the other women there's so much more you can do and I wanted to do so I'll show you guys. I don't have time. So sorry next question. Who's up next? anyone Yes, I Do other microphones travel Traveling microphone, it's not a problem They can just cut this out or I can dance. It's up to you guys what you want to use. I don't care Yes, how do you commonly like maintain your relationships with I guess your pivots like would oh, I don't That's the beauty of it when there's that many they message me I had one girl right to me the other day Adam. You haven't spoken to me for ages It's like an order because I was busy and then try to begin Adam you ignore me You never have any time for me. I'm like, oh babe. I am so sorry. I've been up to what you won't believe I've been up to I was out parking out to travel to this place And then we did this work and this is going on these seminars. How are you anyway? I really didn't mean to ignore you. She's talking to me again It's amazing they start chasing you you lose the ability to actually stay in touch with them because there's so many others and They understand you can't talk to them all. There's too many of them So easy. Yeah. All right. This is like far ahead of what I need right now, but now that you're here Talked about the multiple long-term relationships and you know like when it just started like you have the first girl You just got that first girl, and you know All right, this is the one I can start my little my little harem I like this question I'll tell you why because I decided there were too many people in the community Coming up around just so you guys know it's gonna come out There are a lot of guys out there right now that are trying to steal my stuff There's some great guys who are awesome like sin who are actually crediting me, but I'm a big innovator I love kind of new stuff the reason I got picked by Thundercat And and there are there are some guys no names Who are who are actually trying to steal my stuff? So what I did was I decided that there's no way I can deal with this right? There's no way I can stop these guys from doing it. So instead I'm innovating even more And I'm coming up with some new stuff that people haven't heard of Including an ebook that's about 20 pages long give or take but I worked with and I got Johnny Soporno You guys want to know who he is? I got Johnny Soporno to read over it and give it his official Authentification Specifically on multiple long-term relationships and check it out. It's free. That's right free In your face everyone trying to steal my stuff free material. Ah We can do that nothing so I've just wrote a 17 page or 18 page ebook Specifically on how to create and maintain multiple long-term relationships and a video that accompanies it and the whole thing's free off My website is going to be advertised like in the next couple of days or weeks Some people have got it already because it's been glitches when it like it comes up and you can download it But I kid you not if you check out afshadam.com It will probably be on puhrain.com at some point as well You'll be able to download a whole ebook that will tell you everything and videos of me talking and explaining how I do it There you go. So that's probably the best way of doing it there Could you talk a little bit about Club game and maybe like dance floor game. Yeah, of course, but dance for game is exactly the same as normal game But I didn't talk to you guys about normal games. It's gonna be very difficult to reference it All we've got to think about is you don't have to dance You have to get her to dance because the more she dances the more she wants you What happens is a girl you guys since spoke about attraction earlier and he said what is attraction? It's a feeling but what causes attraction and most people don't really know Most of you asked him to explain what causes attraction haven't got a clue. I think that's investment If you go on to his website it'll explain it all I unfortunately I keep getting people swearing at me in the background They like showing me numbers and but I have to get off but investment It's the same with dancing. You want to get the girls to invest So it's not about what you do it's about what they do I'll give you a story true story went into a nightclub and there were these two guys and they were doing a dance routine and they were like And they were doing all this like stuff and they look and they were in time There's two of them and they look sick and a wicked and I was with a natural guy of mine Love's telling me that I don't have any game even though like I've stepped before these friends Anyway, so so they're like they're like doing all these dancing and there's a circle of people around them And they're doing these wicked kick-ass moves and he goes Adam now that is dance floor game. That is dance floor game I'm like, are you kidding me? It's not dance floor game dancing. It's very different. Don't sing It's like there's conversation there's game and gaming like it's dancing.  So they're dancing in this circle and I wait till they're finished and they finished and I go Hey guys move out my way move out my way. So now I am in the center. There's a big circle of people They've just watched these two dancers doing some break dancing and I stand there and I kid you not I busked out this move Hope you're watching And then I go no, no, no, no, it's not gonna work.  I'm like dance. I went like this And these four girls start going and they don't know that they're sexy dancing Well now the crowd is completely staring at them, right because I say and I'm just like it's right, baby pimp. What yeah So I'm giving all this these girls are dancing the crowd starts to disperse as they get bored. Do you think the girls left? Hell, no, they stayed there dancing. I look at my friend. It's not about what you do to impress other people It's about what you do get other people do for you and I use the social pressure of the crowd around me Knowing that if I pulled the girls into the circle, they would dance because of the pressure So they invested anyway, so cool. Next story anybody Perfect, I love it when I don't have any questions that means you guys will absolutely learn everything It's a very quick recap seriously Go out and do it now like you don't need to listen to any speakers Just leave like what you want to do is you want to make sure you've got confidence you get confidence by practicing Girls run you got a head start you have the chance to leave now before they start hitting on you That's your confidence thing next abundance. Don't try and hit on them Just try make friends with them.  She's gone out the door. She's gone.  No, she's out of there Like I kid you not guys get female friends and go out with them if you find yourself out And there are more guys around you than girls. You're doing it wrong Game you're doing it wrong game fail. I love those phrases internet. Just Google them.  I've been FG Adam. You've been a great audience. Thank you


Ko-Elk Toku-Manga, here they come. Ko-Roring Fork Toku-Ana. Yeah, it passes. No-Ototahi-Okufana. And Ko-Kami-Aau. Tenakoto, Tenakoto. I can't read anymore through the tears. Please know my heart is with you. Thank you, love. I'm totally used to the tears. It's just the audience isn't. Anyway, I'm here to share with you a little bit about building communities by building buildings. And there's a common theme that's moving through this day, which is I think part of a collective consciousness, and it is what future are we creating together? And I think with that question in mind, I'd ask you to hold that as I share this short talk with you and listen for what is it that comes up in you. Is it something that I'm gonna do? Is it something they are gonna do? Thank you, Alina, for presencing that? Or is it something that we are gonna do, which is coming really strong through so many of the talks today? To set a little bit of context, I'm gonna talk about how we're moving through time, and we're transitioning between ages, and we're moving from the industrial age and into the age of belonging. What that looks like is our jobs are changing from productive, repetitive to creative, and every day is different, and we're connecting with people. Our jobs are changing. In our past era and last century, that was our identity, and so what job do you do? That became who you were. And in this century, it's about what communities you belong to, and that's plural. In the last century, it was about extractive economics. That is how much can we extract from resources, usually to consolidate wealth into the hands of a few. And then in this century, it's about regenerative economics. How can we replenish resources and distribute wealth equitably? In the last century, it was about living in one place, working in another, playing in another, learning in another, with really rough boundaries between them. In this century, we're blurring those, let's say, the edges between with semi-public and semi-private space that curates connection. So this is this shift we're moving through between the industrial age and this age of belonging. And what's happening is our work is changing, our identity is changing, our systems are changing, and that will result in a change in our urban environment. There's an urban evolution going on, and it's every city, everywhere. It's not a unique condition. It's part of natural evolution. In the last century, because of the industrial age, what happened was we were moving through, let's say our cities were designed a lot like conveyor belts. How can we move people and goods and services through them? And this is a map of Christchurch. It moved from the walking city to the public transport city to the automobile city. What's happening now is we're actually moving into a next era of urban. And I think what I'm starting to see the evidence for and I'm seeing it in Christchurch is that we're actually starting to create places to connect people. And this will really change our built environment and our cities and how we actually go through our daily lives. So this brings me to what is social architecture. There's a growing desire to be part of community. I don't think there's been a conversation yet that I've had over these three days that didn't have that come up in some shape, way or form. Community, as I use it, is a group of people with a common purpose. Community breeds in places where people meet each other. That's not rocket science, really. And there's always a shadow side. Restlessness is born from not belonging. So if social architecture enables community, how do we foster places of connection? This is a map of Sydney. And what they've noticed is that this is a map of all the places where people meet and gather with different types of, let's say, reasons to be or reasons to come together. And what they've noticed is that the more places that people have to come together, the stronger the societal well-being. They've drawn a direct correlation there. I believe social architecture has a lot to do with people and their relationships and really deeply understanding relationships. I moved to Ototahi Christchurch in 2011 to be a part of the rebuild. I moved there because my art form is urban and I grow old fast and cities change slowly. And Christchurch was going through a pivotal period of change and a compressed period of time. And so for me it was an absolute perfect place to work with my art form. It's also abundant with resources, arable land, fresh water and it's no offense to Christchurch but it's a wonderfully average city. So we can test things there that make sense in other places around the world. And so that's really helpful. I think it's a wonderful place to be able to test these ideas. I wasn't allowed to practice as an architect when I moved there which was a blessing in disguise so I used my skills in other ways. The EHF fellowship wasn't around then and I went through every hoop and hurdle with immigration. What I did is I volunteered with the Gapfiller team and with this project I designed this with them. It was one of the very first projects that came up in a, let's say, city that was going through demolition. All those buildings in the background are gone and new buildings built already. What was beautiful about the Pallet Pavilion it was built by 250 volunteers. And what I learned there is that you can build community by building buildings. And that was the first time I saw it. It was the first time I saw the evidence of what I see as the, let's say, the future of cities. And what I could imagine is why isn't that what every building is doing? How amazing, what future would we live in? So that's the trajectory I'm taking with the work that we're doing at OHU. Another project that I was deeply involved with is the exchange Preston who's here now runs and owns this pretty much full out. And we were a group of creatives, Preston, that found a warehouse in the post-earthquake context. What happens as an urbanist if you don't have a place for creatives to develop a business or a practice, 15, 20 years down the line, you'll have a dead city. Creatives bring vibrancy to cities. And so Christchurch had lost all of its sea grade buildings. And so we were really concerned about as well at 15, 20 years down the line, we're going to have a rather dead city to flourish and to develop their practice. So we found the warehouse after two years of looking. We opened the exchange. It's been open for four years now. And what we're practicing here is connected space. How do you bring things together that were separated in the last century? Bring them together in the way that they're mutually supportive and support a community to grow. So here we have a showcase space which also doubles it as our event space. We have a cafe and we also have a production space. The purpose of the exchange is to cultivate a creative ecology. Those three programs, those three functions overlap in ways where people meet each other and we support the development of that community. So that notion of connected space is really key. Ahu is the new vision that we're working on with a rather large team. Anaki Goodall is here. He's also on the trust as is Huya Lambi who I'm not sure if she's here or not today. Ahu and Tadeo means people working together. This is another really strong theme coming through in the new frontiers this time around. It also stands for Office for Holistic Urbanism. We have three purposes. Building community by building buildings, creating connected space, places where people meet each other and develop strong relationships. And the third big nut to crack is creating an equitable distribution of wealth through regenerative economic models. And we're doing this through collectively owned assets. It's essentially what it looks like with the development and property development coming together. We have three different kinds of projects. Projects that we lead, projects that we partner on and projects that we support. We have many different projects in the office right now. All of the projects need similar things across these four different pillars. First is the community weavers. And I was saying this yesterday to Phoebe, the next general or the next cities will be shaped by facilitators, the community weavers, last century cities, architects and engineers and property developers and planners. It's a new profession. It's a really important profession. It's how do we facilitate people coming together? They will shape the next cities. The legal structures, last century, how do we protect ourselves from each other? In this century, how do we work together? Financial structures, they're regenerative. They're not extractive. It's a very different model. And property development. How do we take an idea through implementation? I'm going to share with you one of our projects that you can find in many flyers on your tables. Colette's Corner is our first project that we're leading. And this is a wonderful tongue twister. I dare you to say it ten times. Colette's Corner is New Zealand's first community-minded equity crowd-funded commercial development. And that's a lot. And what's really behind that is even more profound. It's a total change. It's disruption to property development. How can we build places of connection and belonging and do that together? So Colette's Corner is a site in Littleton. It's about 1,000 square meters. Littleton is the largest port town in the South Island. It's 15 minutes from Christchurch. It was the epicenter of the earthquakes and much of its downtown was lost. It also has a vibrant market. And you can see Colette's Corner here in the foreground. It's co-conceived, co-designed, and co-owned. And so for the last two years, we've been working with people of Littleton to figure out what's appropriate to build there through many workshops, many surveys, many one-on-one interviews. Where we are today is the top two floors. There are going to be apartments. Those are designed on co-living principles. The upstairs co-living principles basically means that you own your own apartment, but you have shared amenities. The entire rooftop is a shared deck. At the ground floor in the basement is a wellness center. The wellness center also is complemented by a restaurant and a co-working space. Where we are today, we've secured the land. We've listened to the community to come up with what's appropriate. We've developed a brief. We hosted a competition. We've taken the winning design from the publicly decided competition through preliminary design, and now we have the equity crowd funding open where this can now be collectively owned. You can find all these details out online, and you also can talk with me later. One share costs $100. It's making it accessible for people to be participating in the commercial property in their towns and cities. And I close with why. And this is this equitable distribution of wealth. Eight people own 50% of the world's wealth. We all know our systems are broken. We also know that we design those systems, and we can redesign those systems. And so it's time to look at different ways of building our buildings so that they're supporting communities, and communities can really thrive. So I close with the same question we opened with. What future are we creating together? And building community by building buildings. Here I'll cry again.


Oh yeah, we had a, had a fade call, knew it was going to be man to man. A guy was playing outside leverage, so I just had to get a release and win. It means a lot. It means he had trusted me. All those practices that we go through, working routes on there, gave me a good ball, and I was able to go up and make a play. I was big. That means he had trusted me. Like you said earlier, you know, he said he missed me with the ball. He told me he would come back to me. I knew I have to go up and make a play, and I was able to make it. Oh yeah, it's definitely important. We're in pre-season games. The coaches are out there. They want to see what guys are going to make plays. And you know, it can be an attribute to this team. So, you know, I just try to put my best foot forward each and every day and go out there and make a name for myself. Yeah, we were aware for sure. Oh yeah, whenever, you know, when guys blitz you have to be able to get open fast. So, you know, that was, that was the key is to get open fast and try to make plays. Yeah, it's definitely opportunities because, you know, there'll be a man-to-man coverage majority of the time when they're bringing blitz.  You just never know what goes on.   Me personally know, you know, each and every day I wish I would have got the strike back to be able to catch that ball across the middle. We got a penalty.  I was definitely a great feeling being able to win, you know, in any aspect of life. You don't want to go back, you know, on that plane, guys down, heads down.  Oh, we know it's going to be hot out there for sure. But the biggest key, you know, is just each and every day, you know, just going out there, putting your best foot forward.  Oh, yeah, I mean, you know, you get what you get from Vraves. Vraves is a, he's a tough guy and, you know, he loves someone who goes out there.  I go out there each and every day and make sure that my presence is felt on that field.

Welcome, Tredors, to another Tick Mill weekly market outlook for week commencing the 16th of January with me, Patrick Munnaby, starting in the U.S., obviously. U.S. markets are offline today for the Martin Luther King holiday, but the focus this week is really how the markets are going to start anticipating the Federal Reserve meeting for February, and whether or not, we are going to see a 25 basis point move or a 50 basis point move. After 425 basis points have raised like so far, there is a strong chance that it chooses to step down to the more traditional 25 basis point increments given most of the policy tightening work is already done, and there are broadening signs that the economy is responding to it. However, inflation remains well above that 2% target, and the labour market remains tight with unemployment rates back to a cycle low of 3.5%. If it does choose to go for a 25 basis point move, we can expect it to strongly state that this is not the end of the rate cycle and that a further 25 basis points in March would likely still be on the cards. This would leave the ceiling of the Fed Fund's target range at 5%, which most believe will mark the peak. In terms of data flow this week, an important influence on the decision. The data calendar includes retail sales, industrial production, housing transactions, and producer price inflation. The activity numbers are likely to be soft with retail sales dragged down by a big fall in auto sales in December, while squeezed household incomes and bad weather may also help to dampen spending. Industrial production is also likely to have fallen given the weakness that has been seen in key surveys such as the ISN Manufacturing Report whose production component fell into contraction sub 50 territory for the first time since May 2020. Some offset should come from the utility sub-component given much colder weather but lower oil prices may have weighed on mineral extraction. Inevitably, the housing market data will be weak given that mortgage rates have more than doubled over the past 12 months, making a property purchase even less affordable. Given the swing in the market from excess demand towards excess supply for the transactions will also be accompanied by lower home prices. Moving to the charts in terms of the technical setup, Dowder Index tested into that 101.50 level overnight. We've seen a bit of a bit come into the market as European traders have walked in here. Obviously, we've got reduced liquidity with US trading debts offline today. So what I'm ultimately looking for as well is prices are capped below 102.50. Looking for one more push down into this 101.20, 101 level to complete a sequence here, five way sequence to the downside. As long as we maintain momentum divergence here, I'm still looking for a three way corrected move to ultimately test up into the 104, which is a high volume note and then we have that descending trend channel resistance 104.50. At this stage, any loss of the 101 handle would be another bearish development hoping to move down towards a psychological 100 level. Now moving to the Eurozone, particularly light on data events this week for the single currency region. Tuesday, we get German ZEW Survey investment sentiment is likely to show further signs of improvement and hopes that inflation will fall are boosting the outlook while the equity market strong starts in 2023 will certainly be a buoy to morale in the region. Then heading into Thursday, we get the ECB policy accounts, transcripts and the minutes are expected to reveal discussions about the size and timing of future rate hikes as well as QT. Updated staff forecasts, lifted inflation projections and showed a shallow recession. ECB raise rates, slow pace at 75 basis points at the December meeting. From a technical perspective, looking for the Euro dollar to make one more push up into the 109 level from there similar, well the inverse set up really to the dollar index. As long as we maintain some momentum divergence, I'm anticipating that that test 109 to 10950 should complete this initial cycle. Then I'm looking for a three-way corrected move to develop and certainly I'll be thinking about move back into our current potential wave four low which would see us testing just below 105 and then from there we'll see a full step back into the upside. At this stage it would take a close through 10980 to open up further upside extension into the daily R3s up here, 11150 is the next upside objectives but like I say looking for a 109 test, maintain momentum divergence and get a pullback into that just below 105. Moving to the UK and in terms of data for this week, Tuesday we get jobs data, the BOE will look at this data through the lens of whether labour shortages are easing and whether wage pressures are still just as persistent as ever. So far the jobs market has shown few signs of deterioration other than a gradual reduction in the number of unfilled vacancies. We'll be watching for any hints of redundancies increasing as firms battle higher energy costs and interest rates. Though markets suspect these will remain low for the time being, meanwhile regular pay growth has been running at 7-8% on an annualised basis and that's consistent with recent readings coming from BOE's own decision maker survey. For now this is the strongest argument in favour of another 50 basis points rate hike at the next BOE meeting. On Wednesday we'll get headlines CPI which hopefully has peaked but it's likely to remain double digits through early 2023 but bank's favoured measure of core services inflation perhaps the cleanest gauge of domestically driven price pressures has aged higher in recent months and this will be key. The signs that this is reaching a peak would boost the case for a more modest rate hike in February. Round out the week on Friday with UK retail sales until November retail figures had risen by roughly 4% in value terms through 2022 but fallen by an even greater percentage in volumes. Neatly encapsulating the cost of living squeeze that's dominating the UK outlook so far this year. While fourth quarter GDP came in flat partly thanks to an artificial bounce in activity after the Queen's funeral bank holiday the first quarter output is like to show material decline. Thanks in part 2 we could retail numbers. Markets expect a small bounce back in December though that's likely to reflect volatility surrounding Christmas spending more than anything else. From a technical perspective Sterling we are looking for a move into this 123 handle just above 123 that represents 78.6% of the last decline and the 161 extension from our current swing cycle here so what I'm looking for is support to be maintained for now just above the 21, 21, 30 area and for price to extend into this 123 zone as long as you maintain momentum divergence they'll be watching for bearish reversal patterns to see a pullback and I'd be looking for something back into initially the 117 handle and then from there we'll see if balls are going to pick up the ball again and make a run up into this big weekly trend line resistance coming in at 1.2760s. At this stage it would really take the loss of 1.250 to suggest a deeper pullback which would have us down into the 120 handle. Okay moving to Japan and in terms of data we get on Wednesday November machine orders 5.4% print last time out strong start Q4 but volatility is likely to linger we'll also get November industrial production negative 0.1% and that's the final estimate and more importantly on Wednesday we would get this Bank of Japan meeting. Bank of Japan now is widely expected to stand pat after last month's shock decision to widen the New Yorker band. Governor Karoda's forward guidance is likely to remain dovish but inflation forecasts could be raised the market is pricing in additional normalization steps from the next governor who will be announced later this month and will take its first meeting in April. From a technical perspective the Dolly End tested a monthly projected range sport 1.2719 which is our target there putting a decent little bounce here I'm looking for any three-way moves back into the pivot and these prior swing lows 1.2950 sending trend line resistance 1.2980 watch for bearish reversal patterns there to engage on the short side and I'm looking for move down into this descending trend channel support looking at a test just above 1.25 at this stage really take a close back through 1.30 to suggest a deeper corrective move back up into the high volume load and the sending trend channel resistance coming in 1.3240s okay let's check in down under with the Australian data sheet for the week ahead and we are looking at a pretty scant data slate for Australia. Do you get consumer sentiments on Tuesday 80.3 finished 2022 at recessionary levels then heading into Thursday the main data point of note really for Australia this week is the employment change looking for a 20k print there did the unemployment rate to stay anchored around 3.4 percent the leading indicators have eased the touch but they remain consistent with trend employment and steady unemployment that's the only data of note down under so let's take a look at the charts in the technical setup the Australian has pulled back to test wedge support at the 6940s this area holds I'm looking for an extension to the upside target a test above the 70 handle from there I am looking for a pullback broadly in line with the idea that we get a dollar correction and actually we're on the Aussie so I've been looking for something uh in the line towards the 67 handle from there though I will be watching for bullish reversal patterns to engage on the long side I'm also looking at say a test of this weekly descending trend on resistance coming in just above the 73 handle as the next upside objective at this stage it would really take a loss of the 6850 to suggest correction it's already underway to move back into the high volume load 6680s and the same international sport 6640s last but not least let's check in with Bitcoin Bitcoin been on a bit of a tear well since the the start of this year really and we can see that we have this upside extension looking like it's impulsive so I'm looking for any callbacks now into the 20,300 area watch a bullish reversal patterns there to engage on the long side looking for a move up into 22,200 which broadly comes in line with the weekly trend line resistance here 22,360 so from there I'll be watching for three way corrected moves and then we'll see if this move is actually going to deliver further upside on the daily chart we could see the potential for an inverse head and shoulder scenario to develop some move back into this 18,300 would be the base there if we are going to extend higher in in Bitcoin otherwise if we hold the trend channel could easily back trading to that 17,000 level representing the high volume on the charts and that concludes the weekly market outlook for week commencing the 16th of January as always trade us plan the trade the plan most importantly enjoy this until next week thanks very much
