62
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,240
Speaker 1: a lot of things, but I want to start off

63
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:23,519
Speaker 1: with this cookbook. It's all Greek to me. Give me

64
00:03:23,560 --> 00:03:26,200
Speaker 1: a little background before I dive in, and just tell

65
00:03:26,200 --> 00:03:28,920
Speaker 1: you everything I love about it. Okay, Well, I'm so

66
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,800
Speaker 1: happy to hear that you love this book because that

67
00:03:30,919 --> 00:03:33,480
Speaker 1: was my goal. My goal was to share all these

68
00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 1: recipes with the world that I grew up eating that

69
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:40,280
Speaker 1: are so good and are so good for you. You know,

70
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:43,160
Speaker 1: I think in this country we've gotten lost and we think,

71
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,960
Speaker 1: you know, if the food tastes good, it can't possibly

72
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:47,880
Speaker 1: be good for us, and it's gonna make us sick

73
00:03:48,000 --> 00:03:51,240
Speaker 1: or make us fat. That that couldn't be less true.

74
00:03:51,320 --> 00:03:53,200
Speaker 1: That couldn't be further from the truth. The truth is,

75
00:03:53,440 --> 00:03:56,400
Speaker 1: as long as you have good, whole ingredients in there,

76
00:03:56,480 --> 00:04:00,920
Speaker 1: things that you can pronounce, then food will be good.

77
00:04:01,040 --> 00:04:04,800
Speaker 1: You know, that is not your enemy. Good fats are

78
00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,800
Speaker 1: very important, like olive oils and avocados and things like that.

79
00:04:08,560 --> 00:04:11,040
Speaker 1: So you know, there's this. The way that I grew

80
00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,840
Speaker 1: up eating was just very we either. We grew the

81
00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: vegetables and my dad's garden, and my mom made the

82
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:23,120
Speaker 1: food from the vegetables and from very very simple ingredients,

83
00:04:23,120 --> 00:04:24,839
Speaker 1: but made it taste so delicious. And I feel like

84
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:29,040
Speaker 1: in America, the Greek food that people know is all

85
00:04:29,080 --> 00:04:32,080
Speaker 1: they know is like souvlaki and bak lava, and they

86
00:04:32,360 --> 00:04:35,000
Speaker 1: and heroes, they don't know the real good Greek food.

87
00:04:35,040 --> 00:04:38,120
Speaker 1: And I really wanted to share that with people. And um,

88
00:04:38,160 --> 00:04:41,760
Speaker 1: I remember like when that the word organic was being

89
00:04:41,760 --> 00:04:44,960
Speaker 1: thrown around, like years ago before everybody really knew what

90
00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,240
Speaker 1: organic was, and people would say organic this, organic that.

91
00:04:47,360 --> 00:04:48,919
Speaker 1: And I was trying to explain to my mother what

92
00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,920
Speaker 1: organic was. I said, she said organic, what is the

93
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,080
Speaker 1: And I said, you know, mom, like vegetables with no

94
00:04:55,200 --> 00:05:01,039
Speaker 1: chemicals this She goes, oh, norma norma nortemas you know,

95
00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:03,240
Speaker 1: the way that they were raised. And she would say

96
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,120
Speaker 1: to me, organic used to be you had to grow

97
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,920
Speaker 1: the vegetables because we were poor. Now it got twice

98
00:05:07,920 --> 00:05:11,080
Speaker 1: the money to buy organic. That's true, that's true. Yeah,

99
00:05:11,080 --> 00:05:13,159
Speaker 1: that's true. So she's like, she's like, you know, we

100
00:05:13,160 --> 00:05:15,920
Speaker 1: we did what we did because we didn't have any money.

101
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:18,800
Speaker 1: And now it's fancy to grow things and and eat

102
00:05:18,839 --> 00:05:21,640
Speaker 1: your own vegetable and eat healthy and all that good stuff.

103
00:05:21,680 --> 00:05:24,159
Speaker 1: And so that that's the that's the amazing thing about it.

104
00:05:24,200 --> 00:05:26,960
Speaker 1: So so when I got the book, I got it

277
00:14:48,440 --> 00:14:50,200
Speaker 1: our viewers because you know, it's right in the middle

278
00:14:50,200 --> 00:14:52,600
Speaker 1: of summer and it looks a little crazy. People drive

279
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:54,600
Speaker 1: by the house, they think, what is going on there? There?

280
00:14:54,680 --> 00:14:56,760
Speaker 1: Got snow in the front yard. But that's what makes

281
00:14:56,760 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 1: it so exciting because nowhere else on television in the

282
00:14:59,200 --> 00:15:02,080

Speaker 1: how can you prepare ahead of time for for Christmas? Now?

285
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:11,680
Speaker 1: You know, it gives you all kinds of ideas that

286
00:15:11,720 --> 00:15:14,760
Speaker 1: you can do and do all these dyes, put them

287
00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 1: away somewhere so that when Christmas rolls around, you're not

288
00:15:17,400 --> 00:15:19,840
Speaker 1: scrambling to try to decorate or try to, you know,

289
00:15:19,920 --> 00:15:22,280
Speaker 1: look for that perfect present. You have everything ready to

Speaker 1: my teeth. When was the last time you replaced your toothbrush?

293
00:15:31,800 --> 00:15:33,880
Speaker 1: Do you always brush twice a day for a full

294
00:15:33,960 --> 00:15:36,600
Speaker 1: or two minutes? Paying attention to these good habits has

295

00:22:22,680 --> 00:22:26,159

415
00:22:26,160 --> 00:22:27,639
Speaker 1: I won't say it, kind of like a superhero in

416
00:22:27,680 --> 00:22:30,919
Speaker 1: those Resident Evil movies. Uh, you know it was a

417
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:34,480
Speaker 1: voice in the further that movie h you Uh you

418
00:22:34,520 --> 00:22:39,080
Speaker 1: spoof yourself and Real Housewives of Hollywood and now you're

419
00:22:39,080 --> 00:22:43,919
Speaker 1: playing a doctor r Houst husband of hospital Hollywood and

420
00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:46,119
Speaker 1: then you now you're playing a doctor on Cold Black.

421
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:49,159
Speaker 1: Did you see all that, Mane? Did you see that

422
00:22:49,280 --> 00:22:53,640
Speaker 1: journey shaping it? Stuff like that? You know, you never

423
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:58,720
Speaker 1: know what God would bless you. Was um. One thing

424
00:22:58,720 --> 00:23:01,399
Speaker 1: that I can say that that's been consistent in my

425
00:23:01,480 --> 00:23:04,080
Speaker 1: life was that I've always had faith and then I've

426
00:23:04,080 --> 00:23:07,680
Speaker 1: always been ready. So whenever opportunity presented itself to me,

427
00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,440
Speaker 1: I was able to take advantage. I was able to

428
00:23:11,480 --> 00:23:14,520
Speaker 1: take advantage. But whether it was a scholarship that I

429
00:23:14,600 --> 00:23:18,159
Speaker 1: got to play tennis at ECU, or modeling contract I

430
00:23:18,200 --> 00:23:21,159
Speaker 1: had with Ford or then you know, the acting world,

431
00:23:21,760 --> 00:23:24,960
Speaker 1: I was always ready to take advantage. And that's something

432
00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 1: that's been that's been a concept in my life. He

433
00:23:29,240 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 1: just started a custom clothing line, and uh, tell everybody

434
00:23:32,840 --> 00:23:35,720
Speaker 1: about it. You've been You've been telling me about it

435
00:23:35,760 --> 00:23:37,520
Speaker 1: for a a year. It did what you saw it with

436
00:23:37,560 --> 00:23:41,919
Speaker 1: your brother, correct, of course, that's that's right, My brother Patrick,

437
00:23:42,040 --> 00:23:44,320
Speaker 1: and he brought the concept to me, and it was

438
00:23:44,359 --> 00:23:50,000
Speaker 1: basically um putting putting the notion of customary suits and

439
00:23:50,200 --> 00:23:55,000
Speaker 1: shirts on his hand because traditionally, owning a custom suit

440
00:23:55,119 --> 00:23:57,080
Speaker 1: or a shirt is something that not a lot of

441
00:23:57,080 --> 00:24:00,320
Speaker 1: people can afford because it's so expensive. So we will too.

442
00:24:00,520 --> 00:24:05,359
Speaker 1: We wanted to cater to the other, the other people

443
00:24:05,840 --> 00:24:09,040
Speaker 1: who deserve to have suits and shirts that fit. So

444
00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,840
Speaker 1: we created a World of Alpha, which is online custom

445
00:24:13,160 --> 00:24:18,000
Speaker 1: suits and shirts manufacturer, and you basically go online to

446

Speaker 1: we have hundreds of different fabrics, we have tons of

450
00:24:32,680 --> 00:24:36,160

Speaker 1: on the move to Uh, it's your brand, it's your

565
00:31:03,560 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 1: it's your's your music. I know you've been tied to

566
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:08,840
Speaker 1: the group and guess what it is. It's still a

567
00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:13,080
Speaker 1: great group. But the decision to become an artist and

568
00:31:13,160 --> 00:31:15,600
Speaker 1: that's what you are now, and that the first song

569
00:31:15,800 --> 00:31:18,880
Speaker 1: level And I would tell you it's interesting how radio

570
00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:20,920
Speaker 1: is that because they're just put your music out and

571
00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,920
Speaker 1: they don't introduce the talent anymore as much as they

572
00:31:24,080 --> 00:31:26,240
Speaker 1: used to. And it took me for a minute to

573
00:31:26,320 --> 00:31:29,280
Speaker 1: find out it was you with that song. And it's

574
00:31:29,320 --> 00:31:31,920
Speaker 1: it's kind of frustrating because you know your goal is,

575
00:31:32,040 --> 00:31:34,160
Speaker 1: first of all, you have a you have a tremendous

576
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:37,120
Speaker 1: relationship and brand you built with many conditions. But now

577
00:31:37,200 --> 00:31:39,480
Speaker 1: you're trying to sell who you are now because you

578
00:31:39,560 --> 00:31:42,080
Speaker 1: see who you are now you can promote yourself, go

579
00:31:42,200 --> 00:31:44,800
Speaker 1: to venues and start selling them out as stokely Williams.

580
00:31:45,480 --> 00:31:47,520
Speaker 1: And when you don't promote that, that's kind of frustrating.

581
00:31:47,560 --> 00:31:49,680
Speaker 1: That's the business side of it that You're trying to

Speaker 1: a million social media followers. We're gonna do it that

731
00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,920
Speaker 1: way too. I know there are many steps to get

732
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:03,239
Speaker 1: the word out. Doing this radio show is fine, being

733
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:05,840
Speaker 1: on the podcast, being on Seers Exam. But you know,

734
00:40:06,280 --> 00:40:08,800
Speaker 1: success is not It's about relationships. And that's what I

735
00:40:08,880 --> 00:40:11,680
Speaker 1: try to tell everybody who called money making conversations. I

736
00:40:11,719 --> 00:40:14,480
Speaker 1: have a relationship with her family. I have a relationship

737
00:40:14,560 --> 00:40:17,400
Speaker 1: with her brand, and she knows me. I never asked

738
00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:21,320
Speaker 1: for anything. This is about about another step. This is

739
00:40:21,360 --> 00:40:22,959
Speaker 1: how you help people. Like she said, this is about

740
00:40:23,080 --> 00:40:25,839
Speaker 1: this is this the event right here July eight. It's

741
00:40:25,880 --> 00:40:29,120
Speaker 1: not about for a profit, it's about for carring. It's

742
00:40:29,120 --> 00:40:32,680
Speaker 1: about uplifting. It's about motivating people to realize that if

743
00:40:32,760 --> 00:40:35,160
Speaker 1: you have a dream, it can be accomplished. But the

744
00:40:35,239 --> 00:40:36,959
Speaker 1: one thing about the dream, he's a tricky thing about

745
00:40:36,960 --> 00:40:40,719
Speaker 1: the dream. You cannot do it by yourself. Understand that

746
00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:44,800
Speaker 1: at a dream, you cannot do it by yourself. You

747
00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:47,880
Speaker 1: have to have the right people around you who support

748
00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,400
Speaker 1: your dream, who will be there in the moment of crisis.

749
00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:54,360
Speaker 1: Because in any dream, and they go any level of treatment,

750
00:40:54,400 --> 00:40:57,040
Speaker 1: there will be crisis and that person has to be

751
00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,799
Speaker 1: there to tell you and welcome you there. And that's

752
00:40:59,840 --> 00:41:02,640
Speaker 1: what this campaign that you have with the black women.

753
00:41:02,719 --> 00:41:06,080
Speaker 1: This is in the Harlem, New York area of New Jersey, Connecticut,

754
00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:10,080
Speaker 1: h Pennsylvania. That's a big area she's talking about, all

755
00:41:10,080 --> 00:41:12,440
Speaker 1: the way down to go down to do Baltimore. That's

756
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:16,920
Speaker 1: going down to d. C. Howard University. I'm I'm telling everybody,

757
00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:21,360
Speaker 1: Shae yes, because it's one thing you have to do

758
00:41:21,480 --> 00:41:24,200
Speaker 1: is we have to support each other. Um and your

759
00:41:24,200 --> 00:41:27,480
Speaker 1: support doesn't necessarily have to come from your family. It

760
00:41:27,600 --> 00:41:30,480
Speaker 1: can come from um you know why why group of

875
00:47:39,840 --> 00:47:42,279
Speaker 1: of their face kind of changes a little bit. So,

876
00:47:42,680 --> 00:47:46,000
Speaker 1: but you also pursued a college education, got your degree,

877
00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:47,799
Speaker 1: absolutely I did. I'm gonn tell you something. My mother

878
00:47:47,880 --> 00:47:49,360
Speaker 1: did not give me a choice whether or not I

879
00:47:49,480 --> 00:47:51,279
Speaker 1: was going to school to school, it was where you

880
00:47:51,360 --> 00:47:53,440
Speaker 1: were going to school. So I went to Georgia Southern University.

881
00:47:53,719 --> 00:47:56,840
Speaker 1: I am a sorry ego, you know, ego sore. We

882
00:47:56,960 --> 00:47:58,719
Speaker 1: fly with the best and we fly high. I ain't

883
00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:00,239
Speaker 1: saying I'm looking down on it, but it's a people,

884
00:48:00,239 --> 00:48:03,320
Speaker 1: A couple of people. I looked down alone join the

885
00:48:03,360 --> 00:48:06,800
Speaker 1: Southern University, graduated with a b s. In marketing. I

886
00:48:06,880 --> 00:48:08,600
Speaker 1: went to work for Sony. From Sony, I went to

887
00:48:08,640 --> 00:48:10,680
Speaker 1: work for Samsung, and then I actually decided I wanted

888
00:48:10,680 --> 00:48:12,520
Speaker 1: to go to law school. I took the L SAD

889
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:15,520
Speaker 1: and decided in the meantime while I'm text studying for

890
00:48:15,560 --> 00:48:16,960
Speaker 1: the L side and then I want to gonna take

891
00:48:16,960 --> 00:48:18,880
Speaker 1: the test. I was like, oh lord, this ain't for me.

892
00:48:19,760 --> 00:48:22,399
Speaker 1: That's why I said, did that come about? Because that's

893
00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:25,040
Speaker 1: a loan. A lot of people when they take that journey,

894
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:27,640
Speaker 1: they just they committed to it because they put so

895
00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:31,320
Speaker 1: much time. And how did you say this is not

896
00:48:31,480 --> 00:48:33,480
Speaker 1: for me? I know I've given a lot of my

897
00:48:33,640 --> 00:48:38,239
Speaker 1: life in that direction, but I'm willing to courageously shift. Yes. Well,

898
00:48:38,320 --> 00:48:40,359
Speaker 1: you know, because I did not have a pre law

899
00:48:40,840 --> 00:48:43,960
Speaker 1: um you know background, I didn't take the pre law classes.

900
00:48:44,080 --> 00:48:46,520
Speaker 1: I just when I already always knew that I wanted

901
00:48:46,560 --> 00:48:49,560
Speaker 1: to be greater than I was like, meaning I wanted

902
00:48:49,600 --> 00:48:51,920
Speaker 1: to be educated. I wanted to be more articulate. I

903
00:48:51,960 --> 00:48:54,280
Speaker 1: wanted to make my mother proud. My mother was pushing

904
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:56,120
Speaker 1: me to be a c I s. Major, which is

905
00:48:56,120 --> 00:49:00,200
Speaker 1: a computer information science degree. Let me tell you, my

906
00:49:00,320 --> 00:49:02,799
Speaker 1: mother has that degree, and I don't think like she does, right,

907
00:49:03,120 --> 00:49:08,400
Speaker 1: so I don't have your mind or versions. I was like,

908
00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:10,759
Speaker 1: I'm never tell you something. I'm not that smart. So

909
00:49:10,880 --> 00:49:13,120
Speaker 1: I did the marketing degree because I was actually ready

910
00:49:13,120 --> 00:49:15,680
Speaker 1: to get out of school and I knew that I could.

911
00:49:15,800 --> 00:49:18,560
Speaker 1: I'm real good at debating. I'm real good and listen

912
00:49:18,600 --> 00:49:20,839
Speaker 1: when I tell you, I can debate my argument down.

913
00:49:21,320 --> 00:49:23,000
Speaker 1: So I was like, I could be a good lawyer.

914
00:49:23,360 --> 00:49:25,239
Speaker 1: And then you know, my cousin, she actually went to

915
00:49:25,280 --> 00:49:27,719
Speaker 1: Georgetown University in d C. And I spent some time

916
00:49:27,800 --> 00:49:31,520
Speaker 1: with her, even a higher academics and you know, after

917
00:49:31,600 --> 00:49:33,680
Speaker 1: going through the process of studying for the else that

918
00:49:33,840 --> 00:49:35,719
Speaker 1: and you know, learning what a lawyer does in the

919
00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:37,680
Speaker 1: day to day life, I just felt like it wasn't

920
00:49:37,760 --> 00:49:40,360
Speaker 1: for me. So, I mean it was a hard transition

921
00:49:40,440 --> 00:49:42,520
Speaker 1: because well, actually I'll take that back. It wasn't so

922
00:49:42,680 --> 00:49:45,160
Speaker 1: much hard. It wasn't a hard transition because I knew

923
00:49:45,360 --> 00:49:47,279
Speaker 1: I wanted to be happy and I wanted to do

924
00:49:47,480 --> 00:49:50,400
Speaker 1: something for me, And I wouldn't have been pursuing a

925
00:49:50,520 --> 00:49:52,520
Speaker 1: j D based on what my mother wanted me to

926
00:49:52,680 --> 00:49:54,960
Speaker 1: do or what other people thought I should. There's a

927
00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:57,239
Speaker 1: lot of people do that. Yes, a lot of people

928
00:49:57,280 --> 00:50:01,239
Speaker 1: have loans they can't pay back, and in pursuit in

929
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:04,319
Speaker 1: the academic plans that can't deliver the income to pay

930
00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:06,320
Speaker 1: it back, right, And I don't disagree with that. I

931
00:50:06,440 --> 00:50:08,360
Speaker 1: think if you're gonna if you're gonna invest in anything,

932
00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 1: it should be your education. You know, people out here

933
00:50:10,480 --> 00:50:12,759
Speaker 1: will finance a car, they'll go ahead and they'll put

934
00:50:13,040 --> 00:50:15,839
Speaker 1: shoes and persons on lailway. Did you know the people

935
00:50:15,880 --> 00:50:18,320
Speaker 1: can put good handbags on the laylway? I didn't know

936
00:50:18,440 --> 00:50:21,520
Speaker 1: that your personality, Okay, I didn't know that you could

937
00:50:21,520 --> 00:50:24,040
Speaker 1: put shoes and handbags and jeans and all these kind

938
00:50:24,040 --> 00:50:26,040
Speaker 1: of things. People will financed all these different things, but

939
00:50:26,120 --> 00:50:29,680
Speaker 1: won't financial No, no, no, I get it. But when

940
00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:32,040
Speaker 1: they have you heard somebody actually go put your good

941
00:50:32,360 --> 00:50:44,200
Speaker 1: Jordan's Jordan. Some people my first cold leather jacket cold.

942
00:50:45,440 --> 00:50:47,000
Speaker 1: I don't know when that was. But I'm gonna tell

943
00:50:47,000 --> 00:50:49,440
Speaker 1: you right now. I'm gonna tell you right now, the

944
00:50:49,600 --> 00:50:54,000
Speaker 1: people and talking to people, Cole has nothing to do

945
00:50:54,320 --> 00:50:56,120
Speaker 1: with the weather. I know you said you think you

946
00:50:56,280 --> 00:51:03,600
Speaker 1: so cold, like you when you slick like it was?

947
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:08,120
Speaker 1: It was. It was chocolate brown stitch. It was stitched. Okay,

948
00:51:08,680 --> 00:51:12,520
Speaker 1: it had no lining was the first mistake. And buying

949
00:51:12,560 --> 00:51:15,719
Speaker 1: the leather jacket. Come on, now, no lining because when

950
00:51:15,719 --> 00:51:20,520
Speaker 1: they got cold cold, right, you're telling your age, you

951
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,000
Speaker 1: call that that's cold, baby, It was cold. But what

952
00:51:23,080 --> 00:51:24,640
Speaker 1: I'm saying is, you know there are people out here

953
00:51:24,680 --> 00:51:27,839
Speaker 1: who will finance rims for their cars, but won't put

954
00:51:27,920 --> 00:51:30,160
Speaker 1: that same type of effort or money into their education.

955
00:51:30,280 --> 00:51:32,359
Speaker 1: So I don't run from that. I did. I got

956
00:51:32,480 --> 00:51:34,960
Speaker 1: some scholarships with some of the money's I did have

957
00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:37,320
Speaker 1: to get strough loans. And I encourage people, if you're listening,

958
00:51:37,560 --> 00:51:39,680
Speaker 1: if you don't have all the money to get education,

959
00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:42,200
Speaker 1: do not let that deter you. You use that everything,

960
00:51:42,320 --> 00:51:44,680
Speaker 1: every avenue and every opportunity you have to go to school,

961
00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:47,240
Speaker 1: because even though you may or may not use your education,

962
00:51:47,520 --> 00:51:50,640
Speaker 1: but it's nothing more feared than an educated person. You

963
00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:53,480
Speaker 1: know what, when you come on my show. You got

964
00:51:53,560 --> 00:52:00,760
Speaker 1: a lot to say. I do now. I count the words,

965
00:52:01,600 --> 00:52:04,600
Speaker 1: the words, and that's what the people say. Huh. You

966
00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:06,680
Speaker 1: know it's when you got you're wearing me out. You'll

967
00:52:06,719 --> 00:52:08,680
Speaker 1: be wearing me. I'd be like tied just watching you

968
00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:10,799
Speaker 1: talk on. I'm coming in here. I'm gonna be here.

969
00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:12,640
Speaker 1: When are you gonna be here again? So don't coming here.

970
00:52:13,360 --> 00:52:17,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna talking to the general manager. As you told me,

971
00:52:17,360 --> 00:52:21,080
Speaker 1: he limits your parances up here. He did my authority

972
00:52:21,239 --> 00:52:23,680
Speaker 1: where is. Don't worry about that. Don't worry about that.

973
00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:27,640
Speaker 1: Let's talk about this transition of going from a corporate

974
00:52:27,680 --> 00:52:31,000
Speaker 1: person to a real estate We can talk about the

975
00:52:31,040 --> 00:52:34,160
Speaker 1: rule state. Now. Where did the rural state license play

976
00:52:34,239 --> 00:52:37,200
Speaker 1: into that? So I moved to Houston, Texas. I was

977
00:52:37,280 --> 00:52:41,400
Speaker 1: there absolutely. I went to Houston to work for Samsung,

978
00:52:41,600 --> 00:52:44,760
Speaker 1: and I could not see myself living in an apartment forever.

979
00:52:44,920 --> 00:52:48,080
Speaker 1: So my first lease was fifteen months, my second lease

980
00:52:48,160 --> 00:52:50,439
Speaker 1: was for six months, and I knew that I wanted

981
00:52:50,480 --> 00:52:53,120
Speaker 1: to buy a home. I lived downtown on Sabine Street.

982
00:52:53,120 --> 00:52:55,759
Speaker 1: I was paying the astronomical amount of money for a

983
00:52:55,840 --> 00:52:58,279
Speaker 1: one room loft, you hear me, And I did that

984
00:52:58,400 --> 00:53:00,440
Speaker 1: on purpose because I wanted to see could I get

985
00:53:00,480 --> 00:53:03,560
Speaker 1: acclimated to pay a mortgage. So my my rent was

986
00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:06,600
Speaker 1: like almost two thousand dollars for a one room law.

987
00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:09,040
Speaker 1: And then in that means and that in that time frame,

988
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:11,160
Speaker 1: I got my real estate license because I knew that

989
00:53:11,200 --> 00:53:12,920
Speaker 1: I was gonna buy myself a house. And not only

990
00:53:13,040 --> 00:53:14,839
Speaker 1: was I gonna buy me a house, I was gonna

991
00:53:14,840 --> 00:53:16,680
Speaker 1: sell my house to myself. So I got my real

992
00:53:16,800 --> 00:53:19,799
Speaker 1: estate license to sell me my my own home. That's

993
00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:22,440
Speaker 1: where it came from. That. We're just the process in

994
00:53:22,560 --> 00:53:24,480
Speaker 1: getting at real estate. Like I know a difference in

995
00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:28,520
Speaker 1: different states. In Texas, you said, would you have to

996
00:53:28,560 --> 00:53:31,000
Speaker 1: take a test? How do you get you to get

997
00:53:31,000 --> 00:53:32,920
Speaker 1: a test? In the realist? In any state you have

998
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:35,960
Speaker 1: to take the educational classes, So it depends. Sometimes it's

999
00:53:35,960 --> 00:53:37,799
Speaker 1: six or eight weeks, sometimes it's four weeks to put

1000
00:53:37,800 --> 00:53:39,800
Speaker 1: it on where you are. You take the test, and

1001
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:41,400
Speaker 1: I mean you take the classes and then you have

1002
00:53:41,520 --> 00:53:44,400
Speaker 1: to take tests to pass each class, and then from

1003
00:53:44,480 --> 00:53:46,319
Speaker 1: there you take the state exam. And then I took

1004
00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:48,160
Speaker 1: the state exam. Now I ain't gonna say I passed

1005
00:53:48,200 --> 00:53:50,120
Speaker 1: it on the very first try, hunt because the test

1006
00:53:50,239 --> 00:53:54,960
Speaker 1: is hard. I did pass it um eventually you know

1007
00:53:55,040 --> 00:53:57,880
Speaker 1: what don't don't know shade on. First of all the

1008
00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:00,160
Speaker 1: real estate classes, you have to best you are you

1009
00:54:00,880 --> 00:54:05,160
Speaker 1: yourself because you're not selling me, No, you and you

1010
00:54:05,320 --> 00:54:08,759
Speaker 1: just lost. No. You have to pass the exam with

1011
00:54:08,840 --> 00:54:11,640
Speaker 1: a certain amount of percentage. And then so the thing

1012
00:54:11,800 --> 00:54:13,560
Speaker 1: is if you had to pass it with the eighty

1013
00:54:13,680 --> 00:54:16,360
Speaker 1: nine or eighty or whatever it was, for some reason,

1014
00:54:16,440 --> 00:54:18,239
Speaker 1: the people just didn't want to give me that extra point.

1015
00:54:18,280 --> 00:54:22,919
Speaker 1: It was always seven and nine seven nine. But used

1016
00:54:23,000 --> 00:54:25,520
Speaker 1: that knowledge. I've used that knowledge to buy and sell

1017
00:54:25,640 --> 00:54:27,719
Speaker 1: my own home. And so you kept the commission. I

1018
00:54:27,800 --> 00:54:30,239
Speaker 1: did keep that check. I wanted all the bags and

1019
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:33,360
Speaker 1: I do it still. Now I'm licensing to states, and

1020
00:54:33,440 --> 00:54:38,719
Speaker 1: so what was the difference between the I'm assuming Georgia. Well,

1021
00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:41,120
Speaker 1: there's not because there and I still get the fancy

1022
00:54:41,160 --> 00:54:44,200
Speaker 1: word that they use, uh start with SNR. It's a

1023
00:54:44,239 --> 00:54:46,000
Speaker 1: fancy word that if the states are kind of like

1024
00:54:46,120 --> 00:54:48,799
Speaker 1: sister states, you can just get um, you take the test.

1025
00:54:48,840 --> 00:54:51,120
Speaker 1: So I took the state exam to get my license

1026
00:54:51,200 --> 00:54:52,600
Speaker 1: here in Georgia. I didn't have to go through all

1027
00:54:52,640 --> 00:54:58,280
Speaker 1: the educational parks. Okay. So so basically it's like almost.

1028
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:04,000
Speaker 1: I think it's called recipient. Yes, I'm smart. Okay, now

1029
00:55:04,080 --> 00:55:06,560
Speaker 1: let's talk. Let's get back to stand up. Okay, I

1030
00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:09,839
Speaker 1: didn't know you're in Houston. You did not, Okay, because

1031
00:55:09,840 --> 00:55:11,239
Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. I could have made I

1032
00:55:11,280 --> 00:55:13,719
Speaker 1: could have put some money in your pocket, because Steve

1033
00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:17,680
Speaker 1: Harvey was putting a lot of money and he still

1034
00:55:17,880 --> 00:55:22,520
Speaker 1: is for like money. Okay, go ahead, Well you're sitting
