I was in a bit of a muddle a couple of years ago, struggling with my business and was inspired by alifes story, after emailing him he contacted me personally on the phone and spoke to me for a good 20 minutes, top bloke and really appreciated he took the time to speak to me👍🏻 great podcast

What a nice bloke

In a world of wannabe’s this man is the real deal. Honesty and firmly sat in reality. Great interview

I like Alfie. He offers a practical philosophy which comes from life experience & a willingness to learn. A clear communicator too. A grounded, wise man

What an absolutely brutally honest, fascinating & inspirational man. I could quite honestly sit and talk/listen to him for hours and I know I’d walk away and achieve anything I put my mind to. Fantastic interview James! All the very best Alfie and family ☮️💟

James, possibly your best interview yet. Alfie Best Snr is a fascinating man & inspirational and his story and advice is incredible. What a brilliant interview by both of you 👏🏼

What an inspiring story !! What impressed me most about Alfie is how humble he is!! Thanks for uploading this podcast James .

So fantastic listening to Alfie talk this evening. & his son is an absolute credit to him.. God bless them both.

He sounds real. Advice is real. It’s literally advice. Fantastic

Alfie and his son I cannot get enough of. They teach and inspire me so much. Need more people like themselves in this world to help others believe they can achieve anything they want from any background. The stuff you take away from them speaking out is priceless. I’m forever grateful and for you James for having a platform that brings people like these on to your channel. Thank you guys 🔥🔥

Thanks James, another top quality podcast from simply the best interviewer on the internet, always polite and charming and always lets the guest speak. Your good manners and human decency shine through all your work.

Going to be honest I've never heard of this guy before but his advice is golden, another quality podcast James 👏👏 bringing us real people with genuine and interesting stories to tell

One of the best yet. He talked sense with every single sentence! Really enjoyed it.

Loved this interview. Have watched in twice today lol. Respect to Alfie. Very humble Guy and love his work ethic and reflection. You always pick great guests James

What an impressive guy. Seriously inspirational! Speaks so well. Great interview again James 👍🏻

Spoke to alfie the other day on the phone, i bought a lodge in one of his parks and sent him a message on Instagram regarding the purchase and alfie took time out of his day and replied to me and called me the next day, being a young entrepeneur this gave me such a positive boost of energy, alfie explained he has time for all his residents especially young lads trying to make it. Thats special coming from a billionaire, What a great guy. was a pleasure talking to you alfie

Thank you for sharing “Your Story” and thank you for putting this video out James 👍🤝

Excellent watch! Best interview to date! Very insightful. Thanks

What an outstanding man. Simple and effective advice.

Feel uplifted after watching this episode, love people like this. Striving for better

His drive and motivation are palpable. Great watch 👌

Another amazing interview, thank you James

The fact he’s made his £ and still going. Never got sidetracked with all the bullshit and his own “new” bullshit which comes with the £. Absolute gentleman. Having a coffee and chat with this man would be most calming real conversation you’ll have. Inspirational. Not one ounce of ignorance in his body

Best interview that I've seen on the channel and I've enjoyed many of them!

One of your best James. Thank you. Inspiring x

Brilliant. One of the best yet James. Very inspirational fella. I take my hat off to him. All the best to him.

Thoroughly enjoyed this. Mr best is so inspirational. Many thanks

Superb interview , possibly your BEST

I have watched hundreds of podcasts from various podcasters, probably over fifty of yours, James, and I have NEVER commented on a single one. BUT, I feel I must for all those who wish to launch their own business, as Alfie gives some of the best advice I have seen on any podcast to date. Watch the full podcast, but take note at the following times: 23 mins 32 secs Fear- you can allow fear to drive you or drown you. 33 mins 02 secs Advice- [supposed] advice from a woman telling Alfie he had made a bad investment buying a holiday park regarding collecting a small amount of money from a lot of people. How wrong she was!!! 39 mins 56secs One of the worst things that happened to Alfie, as a millionaire 20-year-old, but best lesson- where he had to sell his Porsche 911 convertible, rent the £550k house out, move off his work pitch and break up his work units for rent. He then slept in the back of his escort van on a mattress. He did what was needed to do to get out of negative equity. A great lesson on financial restructuring. 44 mins 40 secs What makes a good businessman?- 10% inspiration and 90% perspiration. (I think sector experience is an essential element to be added here) 1hr 00 mins 58 secs DON’T ‘fake it until you make it' Definitely the joint best podcast I have seen you do, along with the first Marvin Herbert one kzread.info/dash/bejne/gZxrupR-hqueh5M.html. This Alfie Best podcast is by far the best that is business-related though. Please get more entrepreneurs on like Alfie.

What an interview James !!! Soo inspired to push forward This guy is brilliant 🤩!!! I trust in him and he’s morals !!!

Absolute bombs of information tucked away in there 💪🏻 incredible interview

A lot of top advice and wisdom there. As Gordon Gekko said in the film Wall Street "Gimme guys who are poor smart and hungry. Those Harvard MBA types don't add up to dog shit". A stellar guest there James.

This man is a very clever man I’ve took a lot in from what he’s said James very very smart man we could all be successful going of what advice he has given if you want to put yourself out there and getting to it he’s a genuine honest fella great podcast mate well done 👍🏻 more podcast on this type of level would be great for you James 💯

Only recently found your channel brilliant interviews im hooked keep up the good work.

What a lovely man, he deserves to do well, great interview 👍🇮🇪

What an amazingly inspirational man and a great interview. I am pretty much the same age as Alfie , worked really hard all my life and in comparison haven’t got a pot to piss in, if only I could have listened to this interview 30 years ago.
