I really don’t think anyone with a DDS or equivalent isn’t going to be financially successful anywhere unless the US has some special system that I don’t know about.
Yeah, I have said many times I can’t defend his behaviour. I only defended him at the time because insignificant posters were coming out of the woodwork just to take shots at him and score points with the regulars, and a significant amount of it was unwarranted. One of the dudes challenging him a lot didn’t even look like he trained when he posted his pics and asked noob questions after PX left.
It was the typical mob behaviour which we’re seeing nowadays with things like “cancel culture” that rubbed me the wrong way.
I didn’t really care much for his bodybuilding training comments and advice since I don’t have much interest in bodybuilding, as in real bodybuilding, not just getting big and proportional. His training style was pretty similar to mine anyway so I skimmed though most of it.
It depends of course on the definition of ‘financially successful,’ but I can assure you that a doctor with an abrasive personality may not do as well as would be expected otherwise.
Let me hasten to add that I know nothing about PX’s practice, nor do I mean to imply that his professional personality was abrasive.
I believe it’s the same for most client side professions. My point is he’s already got a substantial advantage over most people when it comes to income potential from his DDS alone. I wouldn’t know how he conducts himself IRL either but I think he’s intelligent enough to know not piss off the people his income depends on.
Remember when he was featured in T-nation’s training videos and lots of people were like “hey he’s a pretty chill guy after all” when he’s not posting?
