1 00:00:03,560 --> 00:00:05,320 Speaker 1: For a long time, especially when I was like in 2 00:00:05,360 --> 00:00:09,080 Speaker 1: elementary school up until like I don't know, fifteen sixteen. 3 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:13,760 Speaker 1: You guys, we had some pretty tough times financially. I 4 00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:17,959 Speaker 1: was disinherited. When it first happened, I was hurt, but 5 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:21,479 Speaker 1: I'm glad that it happened that way. One thing that 6 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:25,000 Speaker 1: I wish that I would have known about money earlier 7 00:00:25,040 --> 00:00:29,159 Speaker 1: on was the importance of saving because when I was 8 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,960 Speaker 1: asked to move out, the rug was just like swiped 9 00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:39,239 Speaker 1: right from under my feet. Up. 10 00:00:39,240 --> 00:00:39,960 Speaker 2: What up? Everyone? 11 00:00:40,240 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 1: Welcome to this week's episode of Cheeky's and Chill.

Money is such a heavy topic and it's 20 00:01:09,720 --> 00:01:12,800 Speaker 1: also one people don't really like talking about because it's 21 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,080 Speaker 1: so personal. But guys, that's why we have to start 22 00:01:16,080 --> 00:01:18,839 Speaker 1: talking about it. So many of you know, I didn't 23 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: come for money. I grew up saying a lot because 24 00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:23,759 Speaker 1: I was the eldest of five. So when my mom 25 00:01:23,800 --> 00:01:26,560 Speaker 1: had me, she was fifteen, two weeks before her sixteenth birthday. 26 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,560 Speaker 1: She hadn't finished high school obviously, and she was not 27 00:01:30,600 --> 00:01:32,280 Speaker 1: with my dad. My dad as soon as he found 28 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: out that she was pregnant, he was like, that's not 29 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:37,520 Speaker 1: my baby. It's like there's a whole story behind that. 30 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: So my mom had to leave my grandma's house because 31 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: my grandma said, well, if you're pregnant, you can't live 32 00:01:42,920 --> 00:01:45,360 Speaker 1: at the house. Through the Tinnesque l la Gaza. That's 33 00:01:45,360 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: when we lived in the garage. It was my uncle 34 00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:52,400 Speaker 1: Gus's garage, right, And so my mom was fifteen fifteen, 35 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:55,680 Speaker 1: sixteen years old when I was born. She was trying 36 00:01:55,720 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: to finish school. She was going to continuation school and 37 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:00,880 Speaker 1: working and things got better. 38 00:02:00,920 --> 00:02:01,760 Speaker 2: My mom was a hustler. 39 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,920 Speaker 1: That's one thing that like, my mom would work, go 40 00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 1: to school, and then just work at Bank of America. 41 00:02:07,160 --> 00:02:09,760 Speaker 1: Like I always saw her just hustling a lot of 42 00:02:09,800 --> 00:02:14,000 Speaker 1: the times our family didn't know me. She was very 43 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,639 Speaker 1: a proud woman in the sense of if she needed help, 44 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:21,560 Speaker 1: she wouldn't ask for it, and she wanted her siblings, 45 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:24,840 Speaker 1: her brothers and her parents to think, Okay, I'm fine. 46 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,160 Speaker 1: So for a long time, especially when I was like 47 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:31,000 Speaker 1: in elementary school, up until like I don't know, fifteen sixteen, 48 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,760 Speaker 1: you guys, we had some pretty tough times financially. 49 00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:36,040 Speaker 2: We were on WICK. 50 00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:38,680 Speaker 1: We were on food stamps, and WICK is like when 51 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:41,760 Speaker 1: you get free food from the government. So we would 52 00:02:41,840 --> 00:02:46,680 Speaker 1: get peanut butter, eggs, cheese, bread. Sometimes if we were lucky, 53 00:02:47,160 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 1: we got the milk and we got Kicks cereal. Okay, 54 00:02:49,720 --> 00:02:51,640 Speaker 1: so I grew up on Kicks, you guys. I didn't 55 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 1: have that fun cereal like Lucky Charms and fruity pebbles 56 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,359 Speaker 1: and all that stuff like that wasn't in my house. 57 00:02:57,600 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: The funnest it would get was Kicks with a little 58 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,000 Speaker 1: bit of like Choco milanate, so it became chocolate like 59 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,760 Speaker 1: Coco puffs. So I mean, I would have to get 60 00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: off and pretend I was Johnny's mom because the girls 61 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 1: that worked at Wick already knew because my mom was 62 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 1: already Jennie Rivera, but she wasn't making money yet. When 63 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 1: I remember in fifth grade I would go to school, 64 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 1: we didn't have money to buy me like new shoes. 65 00:03:17,400 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: So I was that kid that would go to school 66 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:22,840 Speaker 1: and had the old, beat up shoes. Sometimes my shoes 67 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:25,440 Speaker 1: would talk. They had holes on the bottom from how 68 00:03:25,480 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 1: old they were. I would have to wear my mom's 69 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 1: clothes sometimes because we didn't have money to buy me 70 00:03:30,200 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: new clothes. And I think one of the best things 71 00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:34,920 Speaker 1: that could have happened to us was when they implemented 72 00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:37,440 Speaker 1: uniforms in school, because it's like all of us were 73 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:40,400 Speaker 1: just dressed the same. We would go buy at three 74 00:03:40,480 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: stores my uniforms and stuff like that, but my shoes 75 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,120 Speaker 1: were always just I was wearing my uniform, but you 76 00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,120 Speaker 1: could tell in my shoes that we didn't have money. 77 00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 1: So there's a lot of things that I grew up watching. 78 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,000 Speaker 1: But I always saw my mom just hustling. She never said, no, 79 00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:55,280 Speaker 1: we don't have money for that. It was just like, 80 00:03:55,280 --> 00:03:57,640 Speaker 1: you know, you're gonna have to wait. I always felt 81 00:03:57,680 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: like I had everything I needed. You know, we were fine. 82 00:04:00,040 --> 00:04:01,560 Speaker 1: I mean even if we were eating a couple of 83 00:04:01,600 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: noodles or cereal or sometimes is like we always had 84 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:09,240 Speaker 1: food on the table. There was a time I remember, 85 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,400 Speaker 1: like ten eleven years old, where we didn't, and all 86 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:15,080 Speaker 1: we had to eat was canned food. I think it 87 00:04:15,160 --> 00:04:19,159 Speaker 1: was like tuna and green beans, and that's what we 88 00:04:19,200 --> 00:04:21,279 Speaker 1: had to live off of, all of us. And again 89 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:24,160 Speaker 1: a lot of our family members didn't know this. Anyways. 90 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,839 Speaker 1: I grew up thinking like, Okay, we're fine, but I 91 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:29,560 Speaker 1: didn't realize that we weren't fine until you start getting 92 00:04:29,600 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: older and the kids at school talk about it and 93 00:04:32,040 --> 00:04:35,240 Speaker 1: you see the difference between you wearing La gears from 94 00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:38,280 Speaker 1: payless back in the days to like my friends wearing 95 00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:41,840 Speaker 1: Felas and Nikes and stuff. Because my mom was never 96 00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: was like, oh, we're poor. It was just later on, 97 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: I'm working hard. I'm a single mother. You know you 98 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: can have it later. 99 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:49,360 Speaker 2: Yeah. See, you know. 100 00:04:51,279 --> 00:04:53,960 Speaker 1: So I am so grateful because that's I think why 101 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:55,840 Speaker 1: I'm a hustler, Like I gotta do what I got 102 00:04:55,920 --> 00:04:58,760 Speaker 1: to do, no matter what, I'm gonna be. Okay, now 103 00:04:58,760 --> 00:05:00,560 Speaker 1: that we're talking about money, that it's something that I 104 00:05:00,600 --> 00:05:03,880 Speaker 1: wanted to bring up because I hear certain things and 105 00:05:04,040 --> 00:05:06,279 Speaker 1: i'm you know how big I am on affirmations. You 106 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:09,200 Speaker 1: know the law of attraction, And that's one thing I 107 00:05:09,200 --> 00:05:12,040 Speaker 1: tell myself every day, even if maybe my bank account 108 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:16,000 Speaker 1: isn't as I don't know heavy as other days. You know, 109 00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,799 Speaker 1: it's like it's okay, I'm going to be fine. God 110 00:05:18,880 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: will make it where God will provide, the universe will 111 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: provide whatever you want to say it, or I'm a 112 00:05:24,360 --> 00:05:27,359 Speaker 1: money magnet. Little affirmations like that. It's just like really 113 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:30,599 Speaker 1: really believing it and saying, no matter what, I'm gonna 114 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 1: be fine. And in my household, that's one thing. My 115 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 1: mom would wake up early, and like I said earlier, 116 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,800 Speaker 1: she never made it seem like we didn't have a 117 00:05:41,800 --> 00:05:44,920 Speaker 1: lot of luxuries. But I had what I needed, which 118 00:05:44,960 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: was food and clothes. And maybe yeah, I was my 119 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,680 Speaker 1: mom's clothes, but I had clothes on my back. And 120 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,239 Speaker 1: my mom for a long time, even if she wanted 121 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:56,520 Speaker 1: to buy us what we wanted, what we desired, she couldn't. 122 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:58,920 Speaker 1: And I think that's why when she started making money 123 00:05:59,080 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 1: and she was able to by us our first house, 124 00:06:02,480 --> 00:06:04,720 Speaker 1: you know, with all of us having our own rooms, 125 00:06:04,760 --> 00:06:07,599 Speaker 1: because we would share rooms, all of us when we 126 00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 1: lived in Compton, Mikey had his room and then Jackie 127 00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:13,000 Speaker 1: and I shared rooms, but we didn't have restrooms. You know, 128 00:06:13,040 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: that was a huge thing for all of us. My 129 00:06:15,360 --> 00:06:16,760 Speaker 1: mom would alway say, I want to get us a 130 00:06:16,760 --> 00:06:19,520 Speaker 1: house where each of you have your own bathroom. It 131 00:06:19,600 --> 00:06:21,320 Speaker 1: was a goal for her, you know. It was like, 132 00:06:21,360 --> 00:06:23,800 Speaker 1: I'm going to make that happen. And I think that's 133 00:06:23,800 --> 00:06:26,960 Speaker 1: why when her career just started going off, she was 134 00:06:26,960 --> 00:06:29,279 Speaker 1: a great provider. She wanted us to have everything that 135 00:06:29,320 --> 00:06:32,120 Speaker 1: we wanted, and sometimes she would overcompensate because she was 136 00:06:32,200 --> 00:06:35,760 Speaker 1: gone so much that she would not buy our love. 137 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,240 Speaker 1: Because I don't want to say that, it was just 138 00:06:37,279 --> 00:06:38,880 Speaker 1: it would make her happy to be able to give 139 00:06:38,960 --> 00:06:40,120 Speaker 1: us the things that we desired. 140 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:41,760 Speaker 2: For Johnny, it was. 141 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:46,160 Speaker 1: A little bit more difficult because Posda Machikito. I mean 142 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:50,239 Speaker 1: like he was born basically in a mansion, but now 143 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,320 Speaker 1: he if it was telling me the other day, like 144 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 1: you didn't teach me how to manage money and all 145 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,320 Speaker 1: this stuff. He was like yelling, and I'm like, hello, 146 00:06:56,440 --> 00:06:58,560 Speaker 1: wait a second. I had to just go into the 147 00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:00,080 Speaker 1: world and figure it out, because that's what my mom 148 00:07:00,160 --> 00:07:01,720 Speaker 1: would tell me. Figure it out. How do I read 149 00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:03,600 Speaker 1: a check? How do I deposit a check? I don't know, 150 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:05,599 Speaker 1: figure it out. Ask questions. That's how you learn in 151 00:07:05,600 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: the world is by asking questions. So it's kind of 152 00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: like what I told Johnny. I was like, dude, you 153 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 1: never asked me. But it's because not that he was 154 00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:14,680 Speaker 1: born with the silver spoon in his mouth, because I 155 00:07:14,720 --> 00:07:17,240 Speaker 1: always did my best to teach him how to clean 156 00:07:17,240 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: the toilets, to teach him how to pick up after himself, 157 00:07:19,840 --> 00:07:22,600 Speaker 1: to cook. Like I was a little harder on him, 158 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,880 Speaker 1: but he didn't see and live everything that I lived, 159 00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:28,080 Speaker 1: even like Jackie and mike And I don't even know 160 00:07:28,080 --> 00:07:30,520 Speaker 1: if Jackie and Mikey remember those things or if they 161 00:07:30,520 --> 00:07:32,800 Speaker 1: were ever made fun of at school because kids could 162 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:37,160 Speaker 1: be mean. But in reality, Johnny like was born already 163 00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:40,160 Speaker 1: being okay, you know. And that's when my mom was like, okay, 164 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 1: here the waya Johnny. He's six months and I'm going 165 00:07:43,920 --> 00:07:46,720 Speaker 1: to go off and work and do what I gotta do. 166 00:07:46,920 --> 00:07:48,480 Speaker 1: And she was the motor. She was a motor of 167 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,960 Speaker 1: the family. So now talking about Johnny, I was sixteen 168 00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:55,000 Speaker 1: when he was born, and when my mom went back 169 00:07:55,040 --> 00:07:57,040 Speaker 1: to work, it's kind of like, here's your kid, I'm 170 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: gonna go work, I'm gonna go do what I gotta do. 171 00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: Kind Of at that moment, I think was when I 172 00:08:02,120 --> 00:08:05,080 Speaker 1: put my own life on hold because I wanted to 173 00:08:05,080 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 1: help my mom and I wanted her to make her 174 00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:09,880 Speaker 1: dreams come true. For her, it was this is a career. 175 00:08:09,920 --> 00:08:11,360 Speaker 1: She always saw it is, this is the way I'm 176 00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: going to feed my children. And yeah, she did real estate, 177 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,960 Speaker 1: but she was making money singing and her career was 178 00:08:17,960 --> 00:08:20,760 Speaker 1: starting to pop off, you know. So I think that's 179 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:24,640 Speaker 1: when I started seeing the change when Las Malandrina started 180 00:08:24,640 --> 00:08:28,360 Speaker 1: playing and then like all her like hits, like her 181 00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,800 Speaker 1: corridos started like coming out, and you know, it started 182 00:08:30,800 --> 00:08:33,040 Speaker 1: getting better and better. But I think that's like the 183 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,120 Speaker 1: first time when I started realizing, oh, my mom is 184 00:08:35,400 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 1: a superstar. She was being at award show, she was 185 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:40,920 Speaker 1: being awarded for Female Artists of the Year and stuff 186 00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:42,800 Speaker 1: like that, you know, selling out show. She was gone 187 00:08:42,800 --> 00:08:46,480 Speaker 1: almost every weekend, so I started seeing, yeah, there's more 188 00:08:46,600 --> 00:08:49,520 Speaker 1: money coming in, of course, but then we saw less 189 00:08:49,559 --> 00:08:52,520 Speaker 1: of her. So I think that's when things got a 190 00:08:52,559 --> 00:08:55,840 Speaker 1: little tough at home, because I felt like, oh, I'm sixteen, 191 00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:57,960 Speaker 1: seventeen eighteen, like I should be out with my friends. 192 00:08:58,000 --> 00:09:01,040 Speaker 1: And when my mom would come home working, she wanted 193 00:09:01,040 --> 00:09:03,959 Speaker 1: to relax too, you know, and she would just kind 194 00:09:03,960 --> 00:09:05,960 Speaker 1: of like, okay, guys, like here's this, here's that. Like 195 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,559 Speaker 1: she was good at being an amazing provider, and I 196 00:09:09,559 --> 00:09:11,080 Speaker 1: would tell her, hey, mom, you still have to be 197 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,199 Speaker 1: a mom, and I want to be a teenage girl. 198 00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:15,880 Speaker 1: But now I look back and I thank her because 199 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:18,840 Speaker 1: I understand, Like she was fifteen when she had me, 200 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:21,480 Speaker 1: you know yetoya, no Carisia, Like she still had to 201 00:09:21,520 --> 00:09:24,840 Speaker 1: live her life. Now I understand it. But during that time, 202 00:09:24,840 --> 00:09:29,319 Speaker 1: it was tough. It was definitely hard. And my mom, 203 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:33,320 Speaker 1: I think because she would come home, honestly, and she'd. 204 00:09:33,160 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 2: Have stacks and stacks of cash. 205 00:09:35,080 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 1: They would pay her cash back then and I was 206 00:09:37,280 --> 00:09:39,079 Speaker 1: the one that had to manage it all. 207 00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,480 Speaker 2: And I'm not gonna lie. 208 00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:44,040 Speaker 1: Imagine a sixteen year old girl with thousands and thousands 209 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:47,160 Speaker 1: of dollars in a briefcase, like I would hide it. 210 00:09:47,280 --> 00:09:49,959 Speaker 1: I had really good hiding places. I was the one 211 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:51,679 Speaker 1: that had to do the groceries. I had to go, 212 00:09:51,760 --> 00:09:54,080 Speaker 1: like buy the groceries. I had to pay and make 213 00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,720 Speaker 1: sure everything, all the bills were paid at home. And 214 00:09:57,080 --> 00:09:59,600 Speaker 1: I felt for a long time that I was that 215 00:09:59,640 --> 00:10:01,960 Speaker 1: I just did that. I felt a little bit entitled, 216 00:10:02,000 --> 00:10:03,920 Speaker 1: and that's not right to feel that way. Now I 217 00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:05,719 Speaker 1: know that, But at that time, I felt like, well, 218 00:10:05,720 --> 00:10:07,599 Speaker 1: I'm the one staying home with the kids. I'm the 219 00:10:07,640 --> 00:10:10,240 Speaker 1: one taking care of everything. Everything's being paid because I'm 220 00:10:10,280 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 1: paying it, and I would use the money as if 221 00:10:12,520 --> 00:10:14,400 Speaker 1: it was mine. And there were times when I would 222 00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,680 Speaker 1: just misuse the money. You know, I'm not even gonna. 223 00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 2: Lie about that. 224 00:10:17,080 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: Like I had cash guys in my hands, like I 225 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:22,839 Speaker 1: could just go into my room and use it. And 226 00:10:22,880 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 1: my mom never asked me questions. You know, I think 227 00:10:25,200 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: she trusted me one hundred percent and I would never 228 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:29,520 Speaker 1: lie to her, like if I would tell her you know, yeah, 229 00:10:29,559 --> 00:10:30,839 Speaker 1: I went to the store. I bought you because you know, 230 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:33,040 Speaker 1: I would dress her back then. I bought you clothes, 231 00:10:33,040 --> 00:10:34,840 Speaker 1: and I also bought myself clothes and she would laugh 232 00:10:35,200 --> 00:10:36,800 Speaker 1: like she knew. She's like you need to stop, like 233 00:10:36,840 --> 00:10:38,960 Speaker 1: you need to save money, like for a rainy day, 234 00:10:39,080 --> 00:10:41,360 Speaker 1: like that money's there. Make sure you buy what we 235 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,079 Speaker 1: need and save the rest. That's when I first heard like, oh, 236 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,200 Speaker 1: we got to save money. I was like seventeen, and 237 00:10:48,280 --> 00:10:50,559 Speaker 1: I did. But then my l Gastavao said there were 238 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:52,640 Speaker 1: things that I didn't need, not just because I could 239 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:55,440 Speaker 1: buy it. It's still not my money. It's still not 240 00:10:55,520 --> 00:10:57,520 Speaker 1: my money to use it as I please, you know. 241 00:10:57,559 --> 00:10:59,520 Speaker 1: And it took me a long time to realize that. 242 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:01,800 Speaker 1: And I think that's one of the last lessons my 243 00:11:01,800 --> 00:11:03,800 Speaker 1: mom wanted to teach me. When she asked me to 244 00:11:03,840 --> 00:11:07,400 Speaker 1: move out in March of twenty twelve, the year that 245 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:10,080 Speaker 1: she passed, was because she wanted me to go and 246 00:11:10,360 --> 00:11:12,960 Speaker 1: really see what the world was like, because I had 247 00:11:13,000 --> 00:11:16,360 Speaker 1: been somewhat sheltered, and I think for years I was 248 00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:19,440 Speaker 1: used to us being okay financially, that you kind of 249 00:11:19,520 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 1: lose the meaning of what money's for. One thing that 250 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:32,680 Speaker 1: I wish that I would have known about money earlier 251 00:11:32,720 --> 00:11:36,840 Speaker 1: on was the importance of saving. Because when I was 252 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,400 Speaker 1: asked to move out and my job was taken away, 253 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:41,200 Speaker 1: which was my job with my mom, and I got 254 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:44,240 Speaker 1: paid pretty well and I got comfortable, the rug was 255 00:11:44,320 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 1: just like swiped right from under my feet. It almost 256 00:11:47,760 --> 00:11:50,480 Speaker 1: felt like I went back to my childhood. And this 257 00:11:50,600 --> 00:11:53,400 Speaker 1: is how crazy it was. I had a one bedroom. 258 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:54,400 Speaker 1: It was a one bedroom. 259 00:11:54,400 --> 00:11:55,040 Speaker 2: It was a garage. 260 00:11:55,080 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: I was converted right and it was like a studio, 261 00:11:57,160 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: so it was like a kitchen and then the living 262 00:11:59,600 --> 00:12:01,520 Speaker 1: room all in one, and then there was a bedroom 263 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:04,480 Speaker 1: with the restroom, so I made the bedroom my closet. 264 00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,000 Speaker 1: This is how crazy and obsessed I was with clothes 265 00:12:08,360 --> 00:12:12,080 Speaker 1: and shoes and purses. And I still am to be 266 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:16,360 Speaker 1: honest because I converted my garage into my closet now 267 00:12:16,400 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 1: and my glamor room. But now I see it different. 268 00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,720 Speaker 1: Now I see it as an investment. Now it's like, Okay, 269 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 1: I come out on television, I do interviews, I perform, 270 00:12:24,480 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 1: I need different clothes. And even then I was on 271 00:12:26,800 --> 00:12:29,880 Speaker 1: reality and I would buy an excessive amount of clothes. 272 00:12:29,920 --> 00:12:33,199 Speaker 1: Could I have bought less? Absolutely, But I didn't have 273 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,400 Speaker 1: anything in my savings account. And I wish I would 274 00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:38,280 Speaker 1: have known the importance of when I started working, how 275 00:12:38,320 --> 00:12:41,360 Speaker 1: important it is to save money. Fifty one hundred dollars, 276 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:44,000 Speaker 1: it could be anything you guys from every check whenever 277 00:12:44,040 --> 00:12:45,520 Speaker 1: you're like, oh, I have some extra money, I'm gonna 278 00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:47,840 Speaker 1: put in my savings account. It would have really just 279 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: gave me a peace of mind during that time. And 280 00:12:50,679 --> 00:12:54,800 Speaker 1: there I was twenty six years old, thinking, what the heck, 281 00:12:54,840 --> 00:12:56,560 Speaker 1: I have nothing in my savings account. All I have 282 00:12:56,640 --> 00:12:58,600 Speaker 1: is literally what's in my checkings, and all that money 283 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: has to go into my business. So now as an adult, 284 00:13:01,880 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: I do have a savings account. It is important for 285 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:07,360 Speaker 1: me to have a savings account because I am self employed, 286 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:10,320 Speaker 1: so I don't have a four oh one k I 287 00:13:10,320 --> 00:13:11,880 Speaker 1: don't have you know what I mean, Like I have 288 00:13:12,400 --> 00:13:15,400 Speaker 1: my life insurance and things like that. But for me, 289 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:19,360 Speaker 1: it is important that I do save ten percent of 290 00:13:19,400 --> 00:13:22,880 Speaker 1: my monthly income goes into my savings account. Or like 291 00:13:22,880 --> 00:13:25,320 Speaker 1: I was telling Johnny the other day, Okay, he's getting 292 00:13:25,360 --> 00:13:27,720 Speaker 1: paid now he's working for my mom's enterprises. I'm like, 293 00:13:27,760 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 1: from every check, take one hundred dollars and put it 294 00:13:31,200 --> 00:13:33,360 Speaker 1: in your savings account for a rainy day. It doesn't 295 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:34,840 Speaker 1: even have to be a lot. It can be every 296 00:13:34,920 --> 00:13:37,680 Speaker 1: check fifty dollars, every check one hundred dollars, whatever you can. 297 00:13:38,080 --> 00:13:39,520 Speaker 1: But you have to put it away and pretend it 298 00:13:39,520 --> 00:13:41,240 Speaker 1: does not exist. Like you just have to just put 299 00:13:41,280 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: it away. It could be like I told him, if 300 00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:44,920 Speaker 1: you want to go on vacation at the end of 301 00:13:45,000 --> 00:13:46,680 Speaker 1: the year, if that's what's going to make you happy, 302 00:13:47,080 --> 00:13:49,200 Speaker 1: if you just want to have it there for your 303 00:13:49,240 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: retirement plan like I do. Like for me, it's like, Okay, 304 00:13:51,760 --> 00:13:53,760 Speaker 1: one day I want to be able to retire and 305 00:13:53,800 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: be okay, and I'll have that savings there. It's just 306 00:13:57,280 --> 00:13:59,800 Speaker 1: whatever your personal goals are. I do think it's in 307 00:14:00,080 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 1: ortant to have that just for backup, just for safety. 308 00:14:03,960 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 1: But for me, it's a ten percent I save and 309 00:14:06,400 --> 00:14:08,720 Speaker 1: then a ten percent that I give back. That's just 310 00:14:08,760 --> 00:14:12,200 Speaker 1: my personal preference. I like to give it either a 311 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:16,120 Speaker 1: ten percent of my monthly income to a church, to 312 00:14:16,240 --> 00:14:19,880 Speaker 1: a family need to even my grandma like I used 313 00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:22,240 Speaker 1: to send her money all the time, like to anyone 314 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:23,720 Speaker 1: like I just feel in any way that I can 315 00:14:23,760 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 1: give back, it keeps again the functuay and the flow 316 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,960 Speaker 1: and the energy of my finances moving. So that's one 317 00:14:31,960 --> 00:14:34,280 Speaker 1: thing that I do. And I believe it also says 318 00:14:34,280 --> 00:14:36,000 Speaker 1: in the Bible for those of you that are religious, 319 00:14:36,000 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 1: that it's good to brudezmo you're offering so that you 320 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:42,320 Speaker 1: can keep that energy of your finances flowing. So that's 321 00:14:42,320 --> 00:14:45,080 Speaker 1: just something that I do. And I highly suggest especially 322 00:14:45,120 --> 00:14:48,200 Speaker 1: saving some money for whatever it could be, anything for 323 00:14:48,240 --> 00:14:51,080 Speaker 1: your retirement, like I said, for you want to go 324 00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:53,920 Speaker 1: on vacation, like I told John and he was very frustrated, Johnny, 325 00:14:54,000 --> 00:14:55,160 Speaker 1: and I told him that, He's like, what do you 326 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,200 Speaker 1: mean believe me, You're gonna be grateful for that, because 327 00:14:58,600 --> 00:15:00,640 Speaker 1: before you know it, you're gonna have like a thousand 328 00:15:00,680 --> 00:15:03,080 Speaker 1: dollars in there.

And 425 00:19:28,320 --> 00:19:31,080 Speaker 1: I have gone up and down in my life financially, 426 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:34,600 Speaker 1: but I can say that I'm proud. I'm proud because 427 00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:37,200 Speaker 1: I've gotten this bar, but there has been some tough 428 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:39,560 Speaker 1: ass lessons and I'm hoping that you guys can learn 429 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:41,960 Speaker 1: from my mistakes and be better than I am. And 430 00:19:41,960 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 1: that's what I tell Johnny all the time. You know, 431 00:19:44,280 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 1: he's twenty one and he's barely learning now, like the 432 00:19:48,359 --> 00:19:51,359 Speaker 1: value of money and how now he's like, I have 433 00:19:51,400 --> 00:19:53,800 Speaker 1: to save, and I'm like, yeah, you know, instead of 434 00:19:53,800 --> 00:19:57,000 Speaker 1: eating out, Dude, eating out costs so much money. You guys, 435 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: it's better to cook at home. It's better to meal prep. 436 00:20:00,800 --> 00:20:04,800 Speaker 1: And that's what he's doing because with Soloquista, you know, Loloquista, 437 00:20:05,600 --> 00:20:08,119 Speaker 1: And you know now that I'm looking at Johnny and like, yeah, 438 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,199 Speaker 1: like he's he was a little frustrated me with me 439 00:20:10,240 --> 00:20:11,639 Speaker 1: the other day because he's like, you didn't teach me 440 00:20:11,680 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: this and taxes and all this stuff.

And I 445 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:32,320 Speaker 1: have always been a very fifty to fifty type of girl, 446 00:20:32,520 --> 00:20:35,159 Speaker 1: like I don't expect my partner to take care of me, 447 00:20:35,359 --> 00:20:37,800 Speaker 1: and I don't want my partner to expect for me 448 00:20:37,880 --> 00:20:41,040 Speaker 1: to take care of him, because that can definitely cause 449 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:45,920 Speaker 1: an imbalance and tension in your love life. I've kind 450 00:20:45,920 --> 00:20:48,000 Speaker 1: of been on both sides of the spectrum, to be honest. 451 00:20:48,200 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 1: I had a guy that had a lot of money 452 00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:52,040 Speaker 1: and took care of me and was there for me 453 00:20:52,080 --> 00:20:53,960 Speaker 1: if I needed, if I had a bad day or 454 00:20:54,000 --> 00:20:57,080 Speaker 1: if I was having you know, when I'm a he 455 00:20:57,119 --> 00:20:58,679 Speaker 1: would come and he would help me, you know, and 456 00:20:58,720 --> 00:20:59,960 Speaker 1: I wouldn't ask for it to be like, no, I'm 457 00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:00,520 Speaker 1: to pay you back. 458 00:21:00,560 --> 00:21:00,959 Speaker 2: He's like no. 459 00:21:01,040 --> 00:21:03,439 Speaker 1: He always wanted to provide, but I always felt like, 460 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:05,280 Speaker 1: because of what had happened with my mom, there was 461 00:21:05,320 --> 00:21:08,720 Speaker 1: like strings attached to it, so I didn't want to 462 00:21:08,760 --> 00:21:10,200 Speaker 1: take too much of his help. But he was always 463 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 1: there to help me. And then I was in a 464 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,719 Speaker 1: relationship where I had to be more of the provider, 465 00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:17,959 Speaker 1: which I was fine with because I felt like, I 466 00:21:18,000 --> 00:21:22,000 Speaker 1: love this person and he's going through a bad time financially, 467 00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:23,159 Speaker 1: and I want to be there to help him. And 468 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:25,120 Speaker 1: I did help him, and I don't regret that. And 469 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:28,240 Speaker 1: I feel like, as a partner, we have to have 470 00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 1: each other's back and say, okay, guanlus. You know, I 471 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:37,600 Speaker 1: don't think that there's anything wrong with even if it's 472 00:21:37,600 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 1: the woman, let's say, going out and being the bread 473 00:21:40,480 --> 00:21:42,800 Speaker 1: winner of the home, you know, as long as the 474 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:46,480 Speaker 1: man is comfortable with that and secure enough to know, okay, 475 00:21:46,520 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 1: that's fine. But sometimes men, especially in our culture can 476 00:21:50,000 --> 00:21:54,600 Speaker 1: be a little machis. Then it's like no, or they'll 477 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:58,120 Speaker 1: start feeling inferior and inadequate if their woman makes more 478 00:21:58,119 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 1: money than they do. 479 00:21:59,119 --> 00:22:00,520 Speaker 2: And I don't think that should be issue. 480 00:22:00,560 --> 00:22:02,400 Speaker 1: I just feel like if your woman makes more money, 481 00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:04,040 Speaker 1: that's cool, as long as you're bringing in which you 482 00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,600 Speaker 1: can and not just sitting there and being lazy. Sitting 483 00:22:06,640 --> 00:22:09,359 Speaker 1: there and being lazy and expecting, you know, your partner 484 00:22:09,359 --> 00:22:09,919 Speaker 1: to take care of you. 485 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,200 Speaker 2: That's a whole other thing. Like you have to help out. 486 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:14,080 Speaker 1: Like I feel like if you're the woman that stays 487 00:22:14,119 --> 00:22:16,600 Speaker 1: at home and the man is the one that's out 488 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:19,639 Speaker 1: being the breadwinner, el mot la familia, like you have 489 00:22:19,680 --> 00:22:22,160 Speaker 1: to be okay with cleaning and cooking and making sure 490 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,000 Speaker 1: that the house is taken care of. Like I just 491 00:22:24,000 --> 00:22:25,920 Speaker 1: feel like you have to help each other out. That's 492 00:22:25,960 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 1: my personal opinion. I would always say my mom was 493 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:30,280 Speaker 1: a husband for a long time. She was the husband 494 00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,000 Speaker 1: that would go out and make the money, and I 495 00:22:32,119 --> 00:22:35,080 Speaker 1: was the wife that would stay home with the kids. 496 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:36,960 Speaker 1: But I made sure the house is clean, the kids 497 00:22:36,960 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: were fed, the homework was done, clothes was washed. I 498 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,679 Speaker 1: felt like a very good housewife to my mother. And 499 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:43,040 Speaker 1: I would take care of the bills, and I make 500 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 1: sure everything got paid on time, and and I would 501 00:22:47,080 --> 00:22:50,879 Speaker 1: buy stuff that were unnecessary, like two thousand dollars shoes. 502 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:53,920 Speaker 1: Are you freaking kidding me? With my mom's money? That's 503 00:22:53,920 --> 00:22:55,600 Speaker 1: something if you guys watch the reality show, you guys 504 00:22:55,640 --> 00:22:58,399 Speaker 1: saw that. But I've learned, you guys, I learned. I learned, 505 00:22:58,440 --> 00:23:01,040 Speaker 1: But the house was always taken care of. So in relationships, 506 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 1: I think it is important to have that conversation early 507 00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: on in the relationship and be honest and just say, hey, 508 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,040 Speaker 1: this is my financial situation. I can help you with 509 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:12,879 Speaker 1: this amount, or I'll pay for the food and you 510 00:23:13,000 --> 00:23:15,159 Speaker 1: pay for this. I just think it's a conversation that 511 00:23:15,200 --> 00:23:18,720 Speaker 1: needs to happen very early on, you guys, and no 512 00:23:18,800 --> 00:23:22,400 Speaker 1: one should feel bad if they can't. 513 00:23:22,400 --> 00:23:24,159 Speaker 2: Or don't make as much money as a partner. 514 00:23:31,080 --> 00:23:32,760 Speaker 1: I pulled up a couple of quotes that I wanted 515 00:23:32,800 --> 00:23:34,080 Speaker 1: to share with you guys, because I kind of want 516 00:23:34,119 --> 00:23:36,520 Speaker 1: to dissect these and kind of tell you and how 517 00:23:36,560 --> 00:23:40,680 Speaker 1: my relationship with money has evolved and how important it 518 00:23:40,760 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 1: is to look at money for what it is. For instance, 519 00:23:44,880 --> 00:23:47,560 Speaker 1: this one stop buying things you don't need to impress 520 00:23:47,600 --> 00:23:51,080 Speaker 1: people you don't like. Let me read that again. Stop 521 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:55,399 Speaker 1: buying things you don't need to impress people you don't like. 522 00:23:56,359 --> 00:23:59,800 Speaker 1: That's crazy, you guys. And I think that happens a 523 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: lot now, especially with social media and the facade that 524 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,719 Speaker 1: so many people and the front that people put on 525 00:24:05,760 --> 00:24:10,160 Speaker 1: social media that they basically live out of their means, 526 00:24:10,880 --> 00:24:13,640 Speaker 1: and everyone wants to show off their Louis Vuitton bag, 527 00:24:13,680 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 1: their rolegs, they're this there that like, and people live 528 00:24:17,480 --> 00:24:19,800 Speaker 1: out of their means. They won't pay their rent to 529 00:24:19,920 --> 00:24:22,679 Speaker 1: purchase something that they can just go flex with on 530 00:24:22,720 --> 00:24:25,800 Speaker 1: social media for people that you don't even know, for 531 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:28,040 Speaker 1: people that you don't even like, and you just want 532 00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:30,720 Speaker 1: to impress and show them like, look I got this, 533 00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:33,399 Speaker 1: Like I am that bad bitch, And you're really just 534 00:24:33,440 --> 00:24:37,159 Speaker 1: digging yourself in a deeper hole financially. That's the worst 535 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:39,320 Speaker 1: thing that we could do. Like I have told myself 536 00:24:39,359 --> 00:24:41,480 Speaker 1: plenty of times, not just because I can buy it, 537 00:24:41,560 --> 00:24:44,080 Speaker 1: does that mean that I need it, that I should 538 00:24:44,119 --> 00:24:47,679 Speaker 1: buy it. And I've had to bring myself back, you know, 539 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:51,160 Speaker 1: because you just never know what will happen. But you 540 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,479 Speaker 1: also don't have to be afraid of saying like oh 541 00:24:53,480 --> 00:24:55,040 Speaker 1: my god, no, no, no, no, I'm not gonna have enough. 542 00:24:55,040 --> 00:24:57,080 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna have enough. The more you say that, 543 00:24:57,520 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 1: the less that you will have. You always have to say, 544 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:03,080 Speaker 1: I'm a abundant, I'm prosperous. It could sound cliche, but 545 00:25:03,119 --> 00:25:05,639 Speaker 1: it's I really believe in the law of attraction, you guys. 546 00:25:05,920 --> 00:25:08,199 Speaker 1: And if you keep going out there, I'm broke, how 547 00:25:08,200 --> 00:25:10,080 Speaker 1: I ain't got no money and this and that, like 548 00:25:10,200 --> 00:25:12,720 Speaker 1: you are going to be broke, like you need to 549 00:25:12,760 --> 00:25:13,919 Speaker 1: be like, oh you know right. 550 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:15,160 Speaker 2: Now, I'm saving. I'm saving. 551 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,600 Speaker 1: It's just all in how you express it and how 552 00:25:19,640 --> 00:25:22,760 Speaker 1: you say it, especially out loud and even to yourself quietly. 553 00:25:23,320 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 1: I always say myself to myself, I have more than enough. 554 00:25:25,840 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 1: I have more than enough, you know, And I thank God. 555 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:31,960 Speaker 1: Always remember the attitude of gratitude you guys, which is 556 00:25:32,040 --> 00:25:34,440 Speaker 1: thank you God, thank you that I have made ends 557 00:25:34,480 --> 00:25:36,640 Speaker 1: meet this month, thank you for always giving me more 558 00:25:36,640 --> 00:25:39,000 Speaker 1: than enough. It's just all of that, you know. But 559 00:25:39,080 --> 00:25:40,720 Speaker 1: that's one big thing that I wanted to bring up. 560 00:25:40,880 --> 00:25:43,000 Speaker 1: Was not just because you can afford it, does that 561 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:44,000 Speaker 1: mean that you need it? 562 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:45,120 Speaker 2: You know what I mean? 563 00:25:45,119 --> 00:25:47,800 Speaker 1: Like I always ask, do I really need this? Because 564 00:25:47,840 --> 00:25:49,520 Speaker 1: of course I like nice things. Of course I want 565 00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:51,080 Speaker 1: to buy those shoes. But I'm like, okay, I already 566 00:25:51,119 --> 00:25:51,960 Speaker 1: have a pair of white shoes. 567 00:25:52,000 --> 00:25:52,720 Speaker 2: I don't need five. 568 00:25:53,720 --> 00:25:56,840 Speaker 1: I was that person before when I like something, I 569 00:25:56,840 --> 00:25:59,600 Speaker 1: would buy it in every freaking color, and I'm like, okay, 570 00:25:59,640 --> 00:26:02,000 Speaker 1: Like you know, you have to be a little reasonable Janey, 571 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:04,239 Speaker 1: like buy the black and the white. You don't need 572 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,359 Speaker 1: the pink, the purple, the red. Like I've learned to 573 00:26:07,440 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 1: just say, okay, do. 574 00:26:08,600 --> 00:26:09,320 Speaker 2: I really need this? 575 00:26:09,520 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 1: Is this a live with or live without? I always 576 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:14,600 Speaker 1: ask myself that when I'm shopping too. It's just things 577 00:26:14,640 --> 00:26:17,119 Speaker 1: like that that I feel are important to ask ourselves. 578 00:26:17,320 --> 00:26:19,240 Speaker 1: Am I buying this to impress someone? Or am I 579 00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: buying this really because I need it because it's a necessity. 580 00:26:23,880 --> 00:26:27,160 Speaker 1: Here's another one. Success isn't about how much money you make. 581 00:26:27,440 --> 00:26:30,959 Speaker 1: It's about the difference you make in people's lives. Look, 582 00:26:31,600 --> 00:26:35,080 Speaker 1: I feel, yes I get money, Yes I'm bringing in money, 583 00:26:35,119 --> 00:26:37,480 Speaker 1: but I also find ways of how can I give back? 584 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:40,880 Speaker 1: How can I help? It doesn't have to be a stranger. 585 00:26:41,119 --> 00:26:45,000 Speaker 1: It could be a family member, it could be for me. 586 00:26:45,119 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 1: It's like you have to make it rotate. How it comes. 587 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:51,840 Speaker 1: You also have to learn to give back pay it forward. 588 00:26:52,320 --> 00:26:54,119 Speaker 1: And I'm not saying all of your money, but for me, 589 00:26:54,400 --> 00:26:57,200 Speaker 1: it is important, like how can I make a difference 590 00:26:57,240 --> 00:27:01,080 Speaker 1: in people's lives? Can look at you, like even when 591 00:27:01,119 --> 00:27:04,200 Speaker 1: you pass by and you see that person in the heat, 592 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:08,000 Speaker 1: you know it's super hot outside. They're selling flowers always, 593 00:27:08,119 --> 00:27:10,520 Speaker 1: like you know what, I'll buy one and then I'll 594 00:27:10,560 --> 00:27:12,680 Speaker 1: just give him an extra where he could just you 595 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:13,960 Speaker 1: know what I mean, Like I give him extra money 596 00:27:14,000 --> 00:27:15,959 Speaker 1: so he can keep that ramo, you know what I 597 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:19,200 Speaker 1: mean of flowers. But it says like I'm always constantly thinking, 598 00:27:19,200 --> 00:27:21,600 Speaker 1: like how can I give back? Like it's important not 599 00:27:21,720 --> 00:27:23,800 Speaker 1: just to think, Okay, the money's mine, I worked hard 600 00:27:23,800 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 1: for it. I'm not going to share it. Like you 601 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:27,280 Speaker 1: can't think that way. Like even with that, it's a 602 00:27:27,280 --> 00:27:29,880 Speaker 1: circle of life, you guys, Like, pay it forward. It's 603 00:27:29,880 --> 00:27:33,840 Speaker 1: super important. Ooh, this is a good one. Money is numbers, 604 00:27:34,040 --> 00:27:38,000 Speaker 1: and numbers never end. If it takes money to be happy, 605 00:27:38,119 --> 00:27:41,600 Speaker 1: your search for happiness will never end. If you got 606 00:27:41,600 --> 00:27:43,480 Speaker 1: to rewind that, rewind it and listen to it again, 607 00:27:43,480 --> 00:27:47,680 Speaker 1: you guys, But that is the freaking truth. There are 608 00:27:47,720 --> 00:27:50,480 Speaker 1: so many people that I hear that are like, oh, 609 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,240 Speaker 1: money's happiness. Money's this, Yes, it can make you happy, 610 00:27:53,320 --> 00:27:56,040 Speaker 1: it's temporary. It's what are you going to do with 611 00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,200 Speaker 1: that money to multiply, to make more, to be able 612 00:27:59,240 --> 00:28:01,560 Speaker 1: to help more people, to do what you gotta do, 613 00:28:01,640 --> 00:28:03,640 Speaker 1: and not be greedy, you guys, don't like that's one 614 00:28:03,640 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 1: thing that is just like, greediness is not cute, you guys, 615 00:28:06,920 --> 00:28:09,320 Speaker 1: it's not attractive. You'll have it one day and then 616 00:28:09,359 --> 00:28:12,560 Speaker 1: it'll go away. You just have to get a good 617 00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:16,439 Speaker 1: relationship with money and really ask yourself, why do I 618 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:18,359 Speaker 1: work hard? Yes, to pay my bills. I get that, 619 00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 1: but also, oh yeah, if money makes you happy, then 620 00:28:22,800 --> 00:28:24,639 Speaker 1: I don't know, then your heart is not in the 621 00:28:24,680 --> 00:28:29,200 Speaker 1: right place. Like you have to see money as something, yes, 622 00:28:29,280 --> 00:28:31,880 Speaker 1: that we need. And this is one actually talking about 623 00:28:31,920 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 1: that money isn't the goal. Freedom is saying Okay, I 624 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,439 Speaker 1: don't have to worry, you know what I mean.
