DIY Vehicle, Money and Life Advice

Explore our videos for vehicle repair and maintenance info, financial guidance and life advice. (Even if it’s just one or two videos; I mean this is a whole new thing and it will take a minute to make content.)

Providing videos and information on DIY vehicle repair and maintenance along with some old guy life and financial advice.

You might as well benefit from my experience instead of repeating my mistakes. I’m not perfect but I have taken more then a few trips around the sun; hopefully what I have learned and done will be of use to you in making your trips around the sun better.

What do you need to do better?

There’s always room for improvement,,,right? How do you balance all the demands of our modern lifestyle? Whether you want to get some advice on money matters, would like to save buckets of money by doing your own car repairs or want some perspective from someone who’s been there and done that; you can find all that here (or hopefully soon should be able to. I’m working as fast as I can.)

What you won’t find here: Crypto advice, hair styling tips, personality tests, fashion reviews and most anything else. I don’t offer opinions or advice on things I have little experience with and will always do my level best to provide the best information I know how to.

Why should I watch the videos? What’s in it for me?

Your car, and for that matter any piece of equipment, doesn’t care about you. It will hurt or kill you without feeling a thing. It’s in YOUR best interest to learn to not hurt or kill yourself. If you don’t have any experience, your risk is much greater. The videos here should (or will) range from specific make and model repairs to general how to’s. Jack up your car wrong and you will damage it. Feel Free to look it up.

Mad Mike (still me, FYI) at one point held licenses in Life Insurance, Annuties and Investments. I’m also pretty good with math and critical thinking. Then there’s the whole 50+ trips around the sun thing. Odds are, I might be smarter than the average bear when it comes to such things.

Whether you want some practical advice on relationships or happiness or want to explore more esoteric subjects such as the nature of life, you can find something here (or soon will find) to tickle your fancy.

Don’t believe me; just read these compelling testimonials for yourself!

Seriously, this whole thing is pretty damn new. I mean I could have gone with the preloaded testimonials but that would have been complete BS. When I get some good feedback, I will be happy to post it below. Although the testimonials below are pretty legit.

My Oompa showed me how to bleed brakes but I was 5 and don’t really remember anything much about it.

Mad Mike changed my front brakes and rotors. It was the sexiest brake job ever.

Since Mad Mike replaced my active grille shutter; my error codes are gone and my aerodynamic efficiency has improved by at least 0.003%.

Before Mad Mike, I couldn’t even start anymore. After his mechanical magic, I feel like a teenage forklift once again.
