So you 0:08:10.320 --> 0:08:14.120 graduate from college, are you concerned that you're ubering to 0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:15.720 get by or are you? No? 0:08:16.040 --> 0:08:17.160 I knew I had a plan. 0:08:17.480 --> 0:08:18.480 What was the plan at that? 0:08:18.720 --> 0:08:20.640 I mean it was entrepreneurship was the plan. I just 0:08:20.680 --> 0:08:24.480 didn't know what it was gonna be. But I hit 0:08:24.560 --> 0:08:26.920 that one a couple of big bets, and you know, 0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:31.240 took it to the next level. I've been been since, 0:08:31.360 --> 0:08:32.360 like right out of high school. 0:08:32.400 --> 0:08:34.959 So did your parents know about this betting? 0:08:35.840 --> 0:08:36.240 They knew? 0:08:36.960 --> 0:08:38.400 Were they in support of it? 0:08:38.760 --> 0:08:40.640 I mean they wasn't in support of it, but they 0:08:40.760 --> 0:08:42.320 wasn't against it either, as long as I wasn't asking 0:08:42.360 --> 0:08:43.280 them for nothing. They weren't truer. 0:08:43.679 --> 0:08:46.719 Okay, So I was really driving like a lot of 0:08:46.800 --> 0:08:48.640 Uber so I could take the money I was taking 0:08:48.679 --> 0:08:50.640 from Uber and bet it to like flip it. 0:08:51.320 --> 0:08:54.200 Oh yeah, you were a straight entrepreneur from Jump from Jump, I. 0:08:54.200 --> 0:08:56.160 Know, I wasn't work for nobody. Now, one job I 0:08:56.280 --> 0:08:59.840 had after that, I said, nah, this ain't it. Can't 0:08:59.880 --> 0:09:02.880 do it. I just can't see myself cocking in every 0:09:02.920 --> 0:09:04.280 day from nine to five, and. 0:09:04.520 --> 0:09:10.800 Just yeah, I have a similar issue. It's very hard 0:09:10.880 --> 0:09:12.880 because I feel like time is the most valuable thing 0:09:13.640 --> 0:09:15.640 and I can't get it back. So how do you 0:09:15.720 --> 0:09:18.800 put a dollar amount that's worthy of taking that time, 0:09:19.960 --> 0:09:22.600 and I value my time at a certain hour. Whether 0:09:22.840 --> 0:09:24.480 you value it at that hour or not. 0:09:25.200 --> 0:09:27.800 You know, it's all about yourself exactly. 0:09:28.200 --> 0:09:31.040 So it just never seems to work out for me. 0:09:31.320 --> 0:09:32.920 I think it's just better just to work for myself. 0:09:32.920 --> 0:09:35.240 I make more money that way, and I get more 0:09:35.280 --> 0:09:38.400 of my time. Right, that's me so spoken like a 0:09:38.440 --> 0:09:42.240 shoe hustler. I've never seen anybody seasoned eggs with Tony's 0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:46.079 garlic or onion powder ever in my life, ever in 0:09:46.120 --> 0:09:48.760 my life. So is that like a New Orleans thing? 0:09:50.480 --> 0:09:55.800 And you did it straight home? Did it burn? Okay? 0:09:56.520 --> 0:09:58.280 You like a chef? All right? So the eggs are 0:09:58.280 --> 0:10:01.920 scrambled with Tony's garlic an onion smells gray. 0:10:01.880 --> 0:10:04.920 Little pepper and lit a little salt.
