So it's me and two guys, and then 42 00:02:29,080 --> 00:02:30,880 Speaker 2: the CEO came and you know, we go to the 43 00:02:30,880 --> 00:02:32,840 Speaker 2: whole We go to Soulit Turrekan Finement. They put me 44 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 2: to sell with this white dude, and I'm so frustrated 45 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 2: because I thought it was my homies.

And the guy looked at 48 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:50,680 Speaker 2: me with like pure frustration, the white guy, and he 49 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:55,880 Speaker 2: was like, man, y'all playing the wrong game. Now. Mind 50 00:02:55,919 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 2: you in prison? So like you in here with me, 51 00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:02,040 Speaker 2: so you must be playing the same game you're talking about. 52 00:03:02,080 --> 00:03:05,079 Speaker 2: So it's like, no. He was like, how much time 53 00:03:05,120 --> 00:03:07,040 Speaker 2: you got to just got my ten years? He was like, 54 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:09,520 Speaker 2: what you're doing ten years from like a tender on ribbery? 55 00:03:10,200 --> 00:03:13,079 Speaker 2: He was like, how much money you got from it? 56 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,799 Speaker 2: And I was like, it wasn't about the money. He 57 00:03:16,880 --> 00:03:22,520 Speaker 2: was doing eighteen months for embezzlement two point eight million dollars. 58 00:03:22,600 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 2: He paid eight hundred thousand restitution. He was able to 59 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:30,720 Speaker 2: keep two million dollars. And he said, if I go home, 60 00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:34,120 Speaker 2: I can do this again and it will only give 61 00:03:34,200 --> 00:03:37,040 Speaker 2: me five years. Next time. You'll still be doing the 62 00:03:37,120 --> 00:03:45,040 Speaker 2: ten years. And I said so he was like, he 63 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,160 Speaker 2: was like, nah, it's not about that. He was like 64 00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:53,120 Speaker 2: the game of life, and it's something about when you 65 00:03:53,360 --> 00:04:00,000 Speaker 2: hear intelligence, it'll put you at a stand in parallel 66 00:04:00,120 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 2: lives to me. And the only thing about prison is 67 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:05,360 Speaker 2: anybody can tell you anything until they show you the paperwork. 68 00:04:05,440 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 2: So he showed it to me in black and white, 69 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:11,000 Speaker 2: and I had never saw seven figures on a piece 70 00:04:11,040 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 2: of paper. 71 00:04:12,040 --> 00:04:14,320 Speaker 1: Yeah, I said, damn. 72 00:04:14,600 --> 00:04:19,080 Speaker 2: So he said, listen, He said, wealthy people stop treating 73 00:04:19,120 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 2: time for money. They learn how to make their money 74 00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 2: work for him, and they learn how to give value 75 00:04:24,320 --> 00:04:28,720 Speaker 2: to people because people will always be the asset. So 76 00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:30,320 Speaker 2: like that didn't make sense to me because I never 77 00:04:30,360 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 2: had heard it before, like from streeting and I was 78 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:36,159 Speaker 2: talking about value the people they buy some dope or 79 00:04:36,160 --> 00:04:42,280 Speaker 2: what dog right? What we're doing, what you're doing, bro, 80 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 2: Like we're talking about And then he said the three 81 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 2: things that wealthy people do is they invest in stocks 82 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 2: because it's the easiest way, the bill welk. They create 83 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:53,800 Speaker 2: a business because a business allows you to put a 84 00:04:53,839 --> 00:04:57,320 Speaker 2: product in the marketplace. And they buy real estate because 85 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:01,560 Speaker 2: real estate allows you to be taxes. He said, you 86 00:05:01,640 --> 00:05:05,359 Speaker 2: learn those three things, you'll make more money than you 87 00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:11,000 Speaker 2: ever made in your life, and you'll be free. And 88 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 2: I was like okay, and he sure. He was showing 89 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:18,080 Speaker 2: me pictures and I remember this nineteen ninety now, so 90 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 2: there's no Instagram. These are polaroid pictures of him in 91 00:05:22,520 --> 00:05:24,840 Speaker 2: places like Iceland, and I remember this blew my mind. 92 00:05:24,839 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 2: I'm a little dude, skinny dude from the hood, and 93 00:05:27,880 --> 00:05:31,960 Speaker 2: he him and his family were in this pond with 94 00:05:32,160 --> 00:05:35,200 Speaker 2: steam coming from it and mountains behind him, and I 95 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:38,719 Speaker 2: was like, bro, like that's real, right, Like how could 96 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:40,760 Speaker 2: like that didn't match to me? How could they have 97 00:05:40,839 --> 00:05:43,599 Speaker 2: mountains and y'all sitting in this water and you're not 98 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:46,279 Speaker 2: freezing a day right here? Like no, this is a 99 00:05:46,279 --> 00:05:49,560 Speaker 2: place called a blue lagoon. And he said Iceland. Yeah, 100 00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 2: like Iceland, that's a real place right straight out the 101 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 2: hood to do all this too much, right, And so 102 00:05:56,240 --> 00:05:58,159 Speaker 2: he was like this, this is where money gets you. 103 00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:03,120 Speaker 2: And so the rest of my time I learned about 104 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:04,920 Speaker 2: the stock market. I was reading. I remember my first 105 00:06:04,920 --> 00:06:08,039 Speaker 2: book was Robert Kie Withstock Rich Dad, Poor Dad, and 106 00:06:08,080 --> 00:06:10,720 Speaker 2: it was a financial literacy. It was like a mindset 107 00:06:10,760 --> 00:06:15,080 Speaker 2: about money and that kind of just changed my mind 108 00:06:15,320 --> 00:06:18,800 Speaker 2: on it. There's people that's really moving because in my mind, 109 00:06:18,800 --> 00:06:20,840 Speaker 2: if you was rich in America, you were selling dough 110 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:26,680 Speaker 2: by doing something crooked and a whole other game. And 111 00:06:26,720 --> 00:06:28,400 Speaker 2: so when I started looking at the stock market, I 112 00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:32,600 Speaker 2: started realizing that, Yo, these people are making tons of 113 00:06:32,640 --> 00:06:43,120 Speaker 2: money off us being consumers. So we really junkies. Yeah wow, 114 00:06:43,920 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 2: And that's how the market started making sense to me. 115 00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:50,719 Speaker 2: I started putting it in the street. And so once 116 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 2: I realized that, oh, the real gangses ain't us on 117 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:57,800 Speaker 2: the street. The real gags is the dude is a ballrooms, 118 00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,120 Speaker 2: the dudes that's building these businesses, the dudes that's building 119 00:07:01,160 --> 00:07:05,640 Speaker 2: businesses to make laws that benefit their businesses, I said, ah, 120 00:07:06,880 --> 00:07:14,280 Speaker 2: check me. I ain't never been a dumb nigga. I 121 00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:17,280 Speaker 2: ain't never been dumb, right, So I was like, I bet, 122 00:07:17,440 --> 00:07:19,440 Speaker 2: And so I just spent the rest of my time 123 00:07:20,640 --> 00:07:23,080 Speaker 2: just reading everything I could about it. I don't got 124 00:07:23,160 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 2: a whole bunch of fights in prison about trying to 125 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 2: watch the stock market while they're trying to watch the 126 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:28,960 Speaker 2: young and the wrestlers.

He watched his 340 00:17:55,720 --> 00:17:58,840 Speaker 2: antique work jobs to struggle. He's watched his his daddy. 341 00:17:58,840 --> 00:18:01,680 Speaker 2: It ain't wrong. Were couple jobs and still struggle. So 342 00:18:01,800 --> 00:18:04,360 Speaker 2: you watched everybody struggle at work the job. So that's 343 00:18:04,359 --> 00:18:07,840 Speaker 2: why you don't believe in the job. Yep. Yeah, that's 344 00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,400 Speaker 2: why you don't believe in it. And so once they 345 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:14,200 Speaker 2: saw it, it started working for me. Believe believe. 346 00:18:14,359 --> 00:18:16,760 Speaker 1: I love that because I have we have mutual friends. 347 00:18:16,760 --> 00:18:20,600 Speaker 1: And I remember Keanu. She was like, y'all need to 348 00:18:20,640 --> 00:18:25,399 Speaker 1: talk too. I need to talk to him. He can 349 00:18:25,400 --> 00:18:27,200 Speaker 1: tell you where to put your money and everything. Because 350 00:18:27,359 --> 00:18:29,399 Speaker 1: when I really started making money, that's sounds like I've 351 00:18:29,440 --> 00:18:31,639 Speaker 1: got to learn where to put it, how to invest it, 352 00:18:31,960 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: how to save on tax. It's it's so many loopholes 353 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:37,679 Speaker 1: and so much game that we don't know as a 354 00:18:37,720 --> 00:18:39,920 Speaker 1: black community. When we start making money, the first thing 355 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:42,680 Speaker 1: we want to do is spend it. You know, And 356 00:18:43,080 --> 00:18:46,520 Speaker 1: you said, people don't believe you when they don't see it. 357 00:18:47,000 --> 00:18:49,600 Speaker 1: But you look at some of the wealthiest people, they're 358 00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:53,359 Speaker 1: not walking around looking wealthy, but they got it, you 359 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:55,639 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. So I think we have to 360 00:18:55,640 --> 00:18:58,639 Speaker 1: get out of the mindset of okay, yeah, I believe 361 00:18:58,640 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: it now because of like how you live in or 362 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:04,240 Speaker 1: all those things, cause sometimes you ain't got it either 363 00:19:04,280 --> 00:19:07,760 Speaker 1: when you're living like that outside of your means. We 364 00:19:07,800 --> 00:19:10,280 Speaker 1: live in a culture where everyone is trying to teach, 365 00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:15,080 Speaker 1: have all these courses and things like that. How did 366 00:19:15,119 --> 00:19:18,080 Speaker 1: you cultivate your course to make sure that people understood 367 00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:19,920 Speaker 1: it's not a skin because there's our people out here 368 00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:23,640 Speaker 1: really scanning. How did you like really build that and 369 00:19:23,640 --> 00:19:26,680 Speaker 1: say I'm gonna keep this integral and make sure that 370 00:19:26,920 --> 00:19:29,640 Speaker 1: I'm teaching people and that they get what they need 371 00:19:29,680 --> 00:19:30,200 Speaker 1: out of it. 372 00:19:30,800 --> 00:19:33,160 Speaker 2: I'd use the same mentality that we had in the streets. 373 00:19:34,000 --> 00:19:37,960 Speaker 2: It was give it away for free. Wow, Wow, give 374 00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 2: it away for free, and if it's good for free, 375 00:19:41,280 --> 00:19:43,840 Speaker 2: don't pay for it. Yeah. Same when the streets, like 376 00:19:43,880 --> 00:19:46,000 Speaker 2: you can't if you're gonna hustle somebody neighborhood up. You 377 00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 2: got a new product, you got why you put testas 378 00:19:48,520 --> 00:19:54,359 Speaker 2: out there? Come off the same brick. MM, how to 379 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:56,320 Speaker 2: react to it and if it's good, you know you 380 00:19:56,400 --> 00:20:01,359 Speaker 2: got something wow. And so I remember I used I was. 381 00:20:01,520 --> 00:20:03,439 Speaker 2: I quit the job and I was sleeping on my 382 00:20:03,480 --> 00:20:06,640 Speaker 2: ant so for my grad my aint glow. And one 383 00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:09,560 Speaker 2: of the things I used to do was I had 384 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:13,160 Speaker 2: this thing called the Kilo pack. So this two thousand 385 00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 2: and twenty, I would I would let people call me 386 00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:26,800 Speaker 2: on a phone call for ninety seven dollars and you 387 00:20:26,840 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 2: could book a zoom call with me for one hour. Well, 388 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:33,159 Speaker 2: the Keo, the Keilo pack, you would get that. And 389 00:20:33,400 --> 00:20:35,920 Speaker 2: I wasn't tech savage. So a friend of mine named Danielle, 390 00:20:36,359 --> 00:20:39,000 Speaker 2: she was real tech savvy. She helped me write my 391 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:40,879 Speaker 2: first e book. Yeah. So she would listen to me 392 00:20:40,920 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 2: and say, what did you wanna put it in? And 393 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:43,840 Speaker 2: I'd write the e book, write it, write it, write it. 394 00:20:44,400 --> 00:20:46,160 Speaker 2: And then she said, you gotta build an email list. 395 00:20:46,200 --> 00:20:49,520 Speaker 2: I said, okay, let's let's give 'em the e book. Then, yeah, 396 00:20:49,760 --> 00:20:51,400 Speaker 2: I don't even know why I need an email list, 397 00:20:51,440 --> 00:20:53,479 Speaker 2: but I'm listening to her sad, you gotta build an 398 00:20:53,480 --> 00:20:55,240 Speaker 2: email list. I was like, alright, cool, well let's just 399 00:20:55,240 --> 00:20:56,840 Speaker 2: give them the e book. Then yeah. And so the 400 00:20:56,920 --> 00:20:58,919 Speaker 2: keylot pack was being able to talk to me on 401 00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:02,960 Speaker 2: a zoom call and get the e book. And when 402 00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 2: I quit the job, I was doing like nine or 403 00:21:04,960 --> 00:21:05,880 Speaker 2: ten of those a day. 404 00:21:06,080 --> 00:21:09,040 Speaker 1: Oh wow, but my brain used to just oh my gosh. 405 00:21:09,080 --> 00:21:12,640 Speaker 2: I can imagine it would hurt. But I was being 406 00:21:12,640 --> 00:21:16,200 Speaker 2: an entrepreneur, so I didn't care. I'm getting I'm getting 407 00:21:16,160 --> 00:21:18,080 Speaker 2: his money telling in my day. Shoot, that's more than 408 00:21:18,080 --> 00:21:22,680 Speaker 2: I'm making. And so I met a friend of mine's 409 00:21:22,760 --> 00:21:24,480 Speaker 2: name is Pockey from her to States, and he told 410 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:27,520 Speaker 2: me something. He said, I want you to take everything 411 00:21:27,560 --> 00:21:30,640 Speaker 2: that you say on those calls because I still would 412 00:21:30,680 --> 00:21:34,760 Speaker 2: recall the zooms and he said, put it in the 413 00:21:34,800 --> 00:21:39,680 Speaker 2: package and instead of doing the phone calls, give him that. Yeah, 414 00:21:40,880 --> 00:21:42,640 Speaker 2: and then what you can do is if you're going 415 00:21:42,680 --> 00:21:45,280 Speaker 2: through the phone call, you can do the phone call. 416 00:21:45,400 --> 00:21:49,119 Speaker 2: And of course for a thousand dollars. So I was like, 417 00:21:49,480 --> 00:21:52,119 Speaker 2: and I'm not doing the phone calls them like that 418 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,840 Speaker 2: would hurt my brain. So I came up with this 419 00:21:54,880 --> 00:21:58,080 Speaker 2: other product called Meet the Plug. Everything was surrounding around 420 00:21:58,080 --> 00:22:01,160 Speaker 2: the streets. Everything was around, but. 421 00:22:01,119 --> 00:22:04,240 Speaker 1: I'm sure like people that were gravitating towards you understood 422 00:22:04,240 --> 00:22:04,840 Speaker 1: and loved it. 423 00:22:05,920 --> 00:22:09,240 Speaker 2: Loved it, and so meet the Plug was where I 424 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:13,640 Speaker 2: would for three thousand dollars, I would fly to you Wow, 425 00:22:14,480 --> 00:22:17,080 Speaker 2: I would book a hotel room and we would lock 426 00:22:17,160 --> 00:22:21,399 Speaker 2: in for a whole day. And so I would let 427 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 2: them see my account though, And that was the that 428 00:22:24,200 --> 00:22:29,680 Speaker 2: was the transparency. Yes, it wasn't that I was just teaching. 429 00:22:30,720 --> 00:22:33,080 Speaker 2: I was doing exactly what I said I was doing. 430 00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:36,840 Speaker 2: And I think that's where a lot of people fall 431 00:22:37,000 --> 00:22:42,520 Speaker 2: shot at today is you're not doing exactly what you're 432 00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:48,119 Speaker 2: telling people to do. You're teaching but not executed. And 433 00:22:48,200 --> 00:22:51,160 Speaker 2: so that has always been my motto is to give 434 00:22:51,200 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 2: away as much as I can, teach as much as 435 00:22:54,040 --> 00:22:56,840 Speaker 2: I can for free, and as a by productor that 436 00:22:57,000 --> 00:22:59,439 Speaker 2: you would buy whatever product and service I had. And 437 00:22:59,480 --> 00:23:03,560 Speaker 2: then the service I had to realize that the people 438 00:23:03,560 --> 00:23:06,080 Speaker 2: who are gonna buy this are probably gonna be at 439 00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,720 Speaker 2: the lowest level. And so what I would do is 440 00:23:08,720 --> 00:23:10,480 Speaker 2: I would create something and I felt like it was 441 00:23:10,520 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 2: and I don't want to say, like dumb it down, 442 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:16,080 Speaker 2: but I was like, it's still too jargon ish. Let 443 00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:18,840 Speaker 2: me break it down again. And so everything that I taught, 444 00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 2: I will always challenge myself to break it down because 445 00:23:21,680 --> 00:23:26,439 Speaker 2: I didn't want the language barrier to continuously be the 446 00:23:26,520 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 2: reason why we're not doing the thing and that I 447 00:23:31,280 --> 00:23:35,320 Speaker 2: don't get it. And so all of my teaching is energetic. 448 00:23:35,800 --> 00:23:37,960 Speaker 2: It didn't laughter. Like in one of my videos. I 449 00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,000 Speaker 2: actually teach with the lou of a tone bag, like 450 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,439 Speaker 2: you got this lowis bag, you know, and you make it. 451 00:23:42,480 --> 00:23:46,399 Speaker 2: You understand our culture. And so we started doing that. 452 00:23:46,480 --> 00:23:51,159 Speaker 2: And then when we created the show, I told my 453 00:23:51,200 --> 00:23:54,199 Speaker 2: guy Jose, I said, we're gonna show the account every 454 00:23:54,240 --> 00:23:58,440 Speaker 2: week because I realized on Wall Street nobody was showing 455 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:01,520 Speaker 2: their account. I realized that none of the in you know, 456 00:24:01,560 --> 00:24:04,240 Speaker 2: the people in my space were showing their account. And 457 00:24:04,240 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 2: I say, HOSEI, we gonna We're gonna show the account 458 00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:10,240 Speaker 2: all when you lose or draw. Yeah, we're gonna show 459 00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:12,119 Speaker 2: the account and the options market. We're gonna show the 460 00:24:12,160 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 2: account of buying whole market. And so they watched me 461 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,840 Speaker 2: grow the account from four hundred thousand and twenty twenty 462 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,760 Speaker 2: two to four point five million in twenty twenty to 463 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:25,280 Speaker 2: this year. They watched me do it wins and losses. 464 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:27,520 Speaker 2: They saw me make a million dollars in one play. 465 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,000 Speaker 2: They saw me lose five hundred thousand in a day, 466 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:33,240 Speaker 2: But none of that mattered to me because it was 467 00:24:33,280 --> 00:24:36,840 Speaker 2: the authenticity. And we did it at a high level 468 00:24:37,359 --> 00:24:39,440 Speaker 2: because what I said to people was, there are people 469 00:24:39,440 --> 00:24:42,320 Speaker 2: making five thousand dollars, three thousand dollars, two thousand dollars. 470 00:24:42,520 --> 00:24:44,359 Speaker 2: I say, HOSEI we're gonna let them see somebody make 471 00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:49,320 Speaker 2: a million. Mm, so I wanna increase their capacity, right, 472 00:24:49,359 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 2: And you don't have to start with what I had. 473 00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:53,639 Speaker 2: But if you see me make five hundred thousand, if 474 00:24:53,640 --> 00:24:55,639 Speaker 2: you've seen make two hundred thousand, if you see me 475 00:24:55,640 --> 00:24:57,560 Speaker 2: make a million and play, what that tells you is 476 00:24:57,600 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 2: somebody that looked like you it it's possible for you too, absolutely, 477 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:06,080 Speaker 2: And so that was just that's the authenticity around the brand. Yeah, 478 00:25:07,080 --> 00:25:09,720 Speaker 2: even to now, we just did was we took a property. 479 00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,000 Speaker 2: We took a million dollars out of the stock market, 480 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:17,200 Speaker 2: went bought a building with the profits. The building's five 481 00:25:17,240 --> 00:25:20,000 Speaker 2: point five million. We took a million out the market 482 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:23,040 Speaker 2: for the down payment. We bought the building with the 483 00:25:23,080 --> 00:25:26,760 Speaker 2: stock market profits, and now the building will now offset 484 00:25:27,040 --> 00:25:30,480 Speaker 2: my taxes. Yeah, for twenty twenty four, that's the ultimate 485 00:25:30,480 --> 00:25:32,840 Speaker 2: way to play the game. It is. But if nobody 486 00:25:32,880 --> 00:25:36,359 Speaker 2: ever shows us that, yeah, then we will put a 487 00:25:36,359 --> 00:25:38,320 Speaker 2: cap on what the possibilities are. 488 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:39,640 Speaker 1: Yeah. 489 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:43,040 Speaker 2: Yeah. And when it comes to money, there is no cap. 490 00:25:44,320 --> 00:25:46,680 Speaker 2: It's not We got men and women were hundreds of 491 00:25:46,720 --> 00:25:50,399 Speaker 2: billions of dollars. And for me, the stock market is 492 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:56,000 Speaker 2: the equaliza that makes the game attainable for us.

Or if you 503 00:26:16,040 --> 00:26:20,080 Speaker 1: have somebody say who has no idea about the stock market, 504 00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:23,640 Speaker 1: but it's looking to get into it, can you give them? 505 00:26:23,680 --> 00:26:26,440 Speaker 2: Just won't give me one of like to get for 506 00:26:26,920 --> 00:26:28,960 Speaker 2: If you have a kid, you need to go to 507 00:26:30,240 --> 00:26:33,520 Speaker 2: Charles Swab or E Trade. I recommend those to a 508 00:26:33,680 --> 00:26:38,000 Speaker 2: fidelity and open up what's called a custodio account. And 509 00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,560 Speaker 2: what that is, cause what we'll do is we'll say, 510 00:26:40,600 --> 00:26:42,639 Speaker 2: while I opened up my child a bank account, and 511 00:26:42,680 --> 00:26:45,240 Speaker 2: we think we have done the most phenomenal thing for them, 512 00:26:45,440 --> 00:26:48,040 Speaker 2: right right, Well, what happens is if you open up 513 00:26:48,080 --> 00:26:50,800 Speaker 2: a bank account, that money ain't gonna do nothing for him. 514 00:26:51,440 --> 00:26:54,040 Speaker 2: But if you open 'em up a custodio account, you 515 00:26:54,119 --> 00:26:56,600 Speaker 2: allow any money to work for them. Yeah, and you 516 00:26:56,760 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 2: become the person who controls it. And so I tell 517 00:26:59,600 --> 00:27:02,520 Speaker 2: everybody the first way to create that generation because I 518 00:27:02,560 --> 00:27:07,760 Speaker 2: am not generational wealth. My daughter is, yes, right, like 519 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:10,280 Speaker 2: I'm the one who is going to establish what freedom 520 00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:15,040 Speaker 2: looks like. But I'm not generational. She is. And how 521 00:27:15,040 --> 00:27:17,600 Speaker 2: it gets even further is now I have to install 522 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:23,600 Speaker 2: tools information in her that makes it generation. No. Yes, 523 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,680 Speaker 2: And so you open that custodio account. But if you 524 00:27:26,720 --> 00:27:29,560 Speaker 2: don't know how to start, I'm not the person to say, like, 525 00:27:29,720 --> 00:27:32,239 Speaker 2: buy what you use because that'll put you that'll make 526 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:32,800 Speaker 2: you lose one. 527 00:27:32,840 --> 00:27:34,600 Speaker 1: And that's what I've heard or heard. Look at all 528 00:27:34,600 --> 00:27:42,680 Speaker 1: your products, yeah, like that's what people tell you. 529 00:27:43,720 --> 00:27:45,399 Speaker 2: The first thing I would say is if you just 530 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:49,320 Speaker 2: getting started, just buy the entire stock market just to 531 00:27:49,400 --> 00:27:54,880 Speaker 2: start off. So it's no mutual fund because I heard 532 00:27:54,920 --> 00:27:57,880 Speaker 2: no mutual funds. Still away from mutual funds. And here's 533 00:27:57,920 --> 00:28:00,880 Speaker 2: why the fees you're gonna pay with me. Mutual funds, 534 00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:05,640 Speaker 2: most neutral funds underperform the stock market, which means they 535 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:08,360 Speaker 2: don't give you the same return as the stock market does. 536 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:11,600 Speaker 2: But yet the people you are still paying the fees 537 00:28:11,640 --> 00:28:17,960 Speaker 2: for underperformance. Right, you're still paying the fees for underperformance. 538 00:28:18,600 --> 00:28:20,399 Speaker 2: So if you're going to do that, why not just 539 00:28:20,480 --> 00:28:22,679 Speaker 2: buy the entire S and P five hundred, which is 540 00:28:22,760 --> 00:28:27,359 Speaker 2: voo or spy. That's just keeping it not complicated. Let's 541 00:28:27,359 --> 00:28:30,840 Speaker 2: just start there, and then let's say how much you 542 00:28:30,880 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 2: get paid. Let's make this automated. So every week, every 543 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 2: time you get paid, let's just start with ten percent 544 00:28:37,320 --> 00:28:39,880 Speaker 2: or whatever you're getting paid. This is my freedom account, 545 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:42,920 Speaker 2: this is my freedom fund. I like that right now 546 00:28:42,920 --> 00:28:45,239 Speaker 2: you have meaning to it. So you say, all right, 547 00:28:45,280 --> 00:28:47,600 Speaker 2: every time I get paid, I'm putting ten percent when 548 00:28:47,640 --> 00:28:50,360 Speaker 2: I get paid into this S and P five hundred. 549 00:28:50,600 --> 00:28:53,200 Speaker 2: So now I'm not paying a broker, I'm not paying 550 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,360 Speaker 2: a fund manager, I'm not paying a financial advisor. I'm 551 00:28:56,400 --> 00:29:02,920 Speaker 2: paying myself. That's it. I'm paying myself. We start there 552 00:29:03,400 --> 00:29:07,160 Speaker 2: when we gotta go far. That's what happens is you 553 00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:09,960 Speaker 2: will see somebody like me and be like, I won't 554 00:29:09,960 --> 00:29:12,440 Speaker 2: get what trap at. There's been a journey family. 555 00:29:12,760 --> 00:29:15,000 Speaker 1: I didn't just start here like you. 556 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:20,200 Speaker 2: You're watching me as a polished product, but through the losses, 557 00:29:20,200 --> 00:29:23,520 Speaker 2: and I always see this information in the losses. There's 558 00:29:23,560 --> 00:29:27,080 Speaker 2: so much information I learned at the losses to make 559 00:29:27,160 --> 00:29:29,920 Speaker 2: me better, and I was all in on it. I 560 00:29:30,040 --> 00:29:32,800 Speaker 2: knew that this would change my life. I knew that 561 00:29:32,800 --> 00:29:36,080 Speaker 2: this would change my family. For the last three Christmases, 562 00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 2: I've rented a mansion in Orlando and took my whole 563 00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:44,360 Speaker 2: family there. Wow. There that for five to seven days, 564 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 2: and I take one day to teach some financial every really, 565 00:29:48,120 --> 00:29:51,000 Speaker 2: every time I make the supposed to go viral, it's 566 00:29:51,040 --> 00:29:52,600 Speaker 2: about eight or nine of them in that. Because you 567 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:54,840 Speaker 2: got to realize, we all come from the slum. So 568 00:29:55,000 --> 00:29:57,800 Speaker 2: we're in a house that got seventeen rooms. They ain't 569 00:29:57,840 --> 00:30:00,560 Speaker 2: never seen that, in a room where they got their 570 00:30:00,600 --> 00:30:02,760 Speaker 2: own bed, most of them coming from bens. What we 571 00:30:02,800 --> 00:30:05,120 Speaker 2: in the bed? You on this side, I'm on this side. 572 00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:08,240 Speaker 2: They got their own bathroom, they got their own shower, 573 00:30:08,520 --> 00:30:11,720 Speaker 2: they got a chef, they got a bowling alley movie theater. 574 00:30:12,520 --> 00:30:13,800 Speaker 2: They ain't never seen nothing like this. 575 00:30:14,000 --> 00:30:15,400 Speaker 1: Exposure is so important. 576 00:30:15,440 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 2: They got a big old pool the size of six 577 00:30:17,200 --> 00:30:20,200 Speaker 2: flags in the backyard. So what happens is that environment 578 00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:23,160 Speaker 2: made it easy for them to learn because when they're 579 00:30:23,160 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 2: looking at it, they're like, how you got this. I'm 580 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:28,640 Speaker 2: glad you asked that. Let's talk about So it was 581 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 2: the exposure. So and I'm not saying everybody have you know, 582 00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:33,640 Speaker 2: everybody can't start there, but that was easy and saying 583 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 2: let's get on a zoom call. Well, what happens is 584 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,080 Speaker 2: if if you're in that beginning stage, let's start with 585 00:30:39,080 --> 00:30:41,840 Speaker 2: the zoom call. Yeah, let's start when we get with 586 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:46,160 Speaker 2: each other around Christmas and in New Years and Thanksgiving. 587 00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,000 Speaker 2: I tell everybody in my community that's the perfect time 588 00:30:49,000 --> 00:30:51,880 Speaker 2: to have that conversation. But everybody ain't gonna listen. But 589 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:54,320 Speaker 2: you know you got that one cousin that you jammed with. 590 00:30:54,520 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: Yes, it's like, now, y'all, we need to list attention. 591 00:30:58,400 --> 00:31:02,720 Speaker 2: And so that's the way you start into it.

That's 615 00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 2: what I want to buy this company? This company that 616 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:21,520 Speaker 2: you can start out. 617 00:32:21,480 --> 00:32:24,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, I love it, Trap, That's cute. 618 00:32:24,560 --> 00:32:27,280 Speaker 2: Come on, I love it.

We're gonna work 622 00:32:36,760 --> 00:32:46,400 Speaker 2: like oh God. So first, it's growing spiritually, yeah, because 623 00:32:47,600 --> 00:32:52,840 Speaker 2: every time I see a new realm that I'm getting into, 624 00:32:52,960 --> 00:32:55,880 Speaker 2: I know I need more guidance. Yeah. So for me, 625 00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:59,040 Speaker 2: it's growing spiritually first and then taking this building. So 626 00:32:59,080 --> 00:33:01,840 Speaker 2: we're gonna call the building Freedom Center Beautiful and the 627 00:33:01,880 --> 00:33:04,880 Speaker 2: goal behind that is to revolutionize the way that people 628 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:11,120 Speaker 2: experience financial literacy. That's important. And then what we want 629 00:33:11,120 --> 00:33:13,080 Speaker 2: to do. My goal behind that is to turn that 630 00:33:13,120 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 2: into putting one of those in every hood. So from Atlanta, 631 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:17,760 Speaker 2: the next one I want to do is in New Orleans, 632 00:33:18,200 --> 00:33:20,520 Speaker 2: and then Houston and then Dallas. So my goal is 633 00:33:20,560 --> 00:33:23,680 Speaker 2: to have a Freedom Center in every hood in America 634 00:33:24,360 --> 00:33:28,040 Speaker 2: to make financial literacy accessible. And I have the saying, 635 00:33:28,480 --> 00:33:30,800 Speaker 2: if you're allowed them to feed you, you give them 636 00:33:30,840 --> 00:33:38,040 Speaker 2: permission to starve you. And we cannot afford to give 637 00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:41,040 Speaker 2: people the ability to start us. 638 00:33:41,080 --> 00:33:43,040 Speaker 1: That's real. 639 00:33:43,200 --> 00:33:46,840 Speaker 2: We have a presidential election up and I always say like, 640 00:33:47,160 --> 00:33:51,120 Speaker 2: no matter who your political view, is that's your opinion. 641 00:33:53,000 --> 00:33:56,920 Speaker 2: But nobody cares more about your money than you. That's 642 00:33:56,960 --> 00:33:59,880 Speaker 2: so true. Nobody cares more about your family's financial stuff 643 00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 2: then you, and so you have this obligatory nunction to 644 00:34:08,280 --> 00:34:13,120 Speaker 2: make sure you're family good. That's it. Yes, that's it. 645 00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 2: So we won't do that. And then the next thing 646 00:34:15,960 --> 00:34:19,960 Speaker 2: is the goal is to create a book.

The world 659 00:35:19,400 --> 00:35:20,000 Speaker 2: is my oyster. 660 00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:22,640 Speaker 1: Yeah that's how much the thing. 661 00:35:23,920 --> 00:35:29,319 Speaker 2: Or you can say, let me work on myself, let 662 00:35:29,360 --> 00:35:33,040 Speaker 2: me get myself right, and then let me find a 663 00:35:33,120 --> 00:35:38,959 Speaker 2: woman and let me pursue her, court her, date her. 664 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:44,319 Speaker 2: Come on, you know what I'm saying. And then see 665 00:35:44,320 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 2: where that goes. And so right now I am in 666 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:53,360 Speaker 2: a situation where this woman before she made me feel 667 00:35:53,400 --> 00:35:57,640 Speaker 2: safe and I had never felt that before. And I 668 00:35:57,680 --> 00:36:01,640 Speaker 2: went through a phase where I told her I can't 669 00:36:01,640 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 2: love you. I don't have it any Yeah. So I 670 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:07,319 Speaker 2: went to therapy for a year and I worked on 671 00:36:07,400 --> 00:36:13,040 Speaker 2: myself and I went to UH getting this spiritual fulfillment 672 00:36:13,200 --> 00:36:19,359 Speaker 2: from men that are married, that's right. And I've I've 673 00:36:19,400 --> 00:36:23,600 Speaker 2: been just a student to men who are honoring their 674 00:36:23,719 --> 00:36:28,080 Speaker 2: wives because I come from an environment where I never 675 00:36:28,160 --> 00:36:33,280 Speaker 2: saw that, right, yep. And so I'm asking all the questions. 676 00:36:34,480 --> 00:36:40,160 Speaker 2: And so I made a decision after I went to Italy. Yes, yes, 677 00:36:43,960 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 2: and I said, alright, trap, we do not need to 678 00:36:49,040 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 2: be traveling across this country alone alone. You know this 679 00:36:53,360 --> 00:36:55,120 Speaker 2: is not it. 680 00:36:55,840 --> 00:36:59,399 Speaker 1: I get it cause I've been traveling since like two 681 00:36:59,400 --> 00:37:03,400 Speaker 1: thousand and seven. Yeah, and I haven't had anyone, like 682 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 1: a significant other that I could experience it with. And 683 00:37:06,320 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 1: you you get to a point you're like, dang, like 684 00:37:08,320 --> 00:37:11,359 Speaker 1: this is a really dopta experience with someone else. Yeah, no, 685 00:37:11,600 --> 00:37:12,279 Speaker 1: I feel you. 686 00:37:12,400 --> 00:37:18,160 Speaker 2: Yeah. And so I was like, you know what, I 687 00:37:18,200 --> 00:37:20,560 Speaker 2: had a situation where I think it was amazing, And 688 00:37:20,600 --> 00:37:23,399 Speaker 2: I said, I really loved that woman, but I didn't 689 00:37:23,440 --> 00:37:26,440 Speaker 2: know how to express it. I said, so now let 690 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:30,319 Speaker 2: me let me try to go back and write my room. 691 00:37:30,480 --> 00:37:32,880 Speaker 2: M mm, cause I w it wasn't that I like 692 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,080 Speaker 2: messed with women or nothing on that. I just didn't 693 00:37:35,120 --> 00:37:38,959 Speaker 2: n emotionally, I wasn't available. I was on some get 694 00:37:38,960 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 2: this money, yeah and so, and there are seasons for that, 695 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:43,400 Speaker 2: and there are seasons for it and so. But she 696 00:37:43,560 --> 00:37:45,920 Speaker 2: just made me better as a man. She made me better. 697 00:37:47,120 --> 00:37:49,719 Speaker 2: She's a woman that has standards. She was like, YO, like, 698 00:37:50,400 --> 00:37:53,319 Speaker 2: I don't feel safe emotionally here, so you gotta do 699 00:37:53,440 --> 00:37:55,759 Speaker 2: something about that. Let's talk about it. And so now 700 00:37:55,800 --> 00:37:58,040 Speaker 2: that I'm better, so I I I'll try. I've been 701 00:37:58,080 --> 00:38:01,359 Speaker 2: pursuing and we have been building, and she hasn't made 702 00:38:01,360 --> 00:38:07,400 Speaker 2: it easy. Whoever you are that she should. And I 703 00:38:07,440 --> 00:38:10,279 Speaker 2: guess her thing was, I need you to show me 704 00:38:11,200 --> 00:38:15,480 Speaker 2: that you are who you say you are, Like, you 705 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:19,080 Speaker 2: have the success, cool, I get it, you you're you're 706 00:38:19,120 --> 00:38:23,719 Speaker 2: a great talker, right, but you've been that way for 707 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:27,239 Speaker 2: so long. I need to know. And so that has 708 00:38:27,320 --> 00:38:31,319 Speaker 2: been so hard for me because I'm so used to 709 00:38:31,440 --> 00:38:37,839 Speaker 2: getting what I want when I want. And so that's 710 00:38:37,880 --> 00:38:40,440 Speaker 2: what I leaned in on God a little more, and 711 00:38:40,480 --> 00:38:42,759 Speaker 2: I said, God, this isn't just a lesson I bother her, 712 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:47,799 Speaker 2: this is a life lesson because if I'm truly going 713 00:38:47,880 --> 00:38:51,399 Speaker 2: to follow you, you won't give me everything I want 714 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:56,720 Speaker 2: in the moment. No, right. But and so it's like, okay, 715 00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:59,719 Speaker 2: And so we've been talking, we've been dating, we've been 716 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:03,000 Speaker 2: you know, and I told myself that I didn't want 717 00:39:03,080 --> 00:39:06,040 Speaker 2: to if I was going to pursue her, I didn't 718 00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:10,520 Speaker 2: need to engage in trying to date other women because 719 00:39:12,440 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 2: you have and know what you want. So that's that's 720 00:39:15,080 --> 00:39:17,080 Speaker 2: what I've been at. That's why i've been at, and 721 00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:22,520 Speaker 2: I have been I'm still a great communicator, so like 722 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:26,600 Speaker 2: I like healthy relationships with people that aren't communicate with. 723 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:28,400 Speaker 2: But that's what I've just been pursuing. 724 00:39:28,520 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 1: I'm for you.
