Yeah, but you know, I don't want 138 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,920 Speaker 1: to get too far away from the basketball man, because 139 00:08:10,920 --> 00:08:16,400 Speaker 1: I'm actually fascinated by your game, bro, like that your skills. 140 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,560 Speaker 1: I mean watching you play like I'm looking at you 141 00:08:19,640 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 1: like if I was watching you two damn like.

Okay, So the thing with the with me 146 00:08:37,160 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 1: is when when the when the teacher asks kids what 147 00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: they want to be when they grow up. Obviously I 148 00:08:43,240 --> 00:08:46,960 Speaker 1: used to say basketball, because I never pictured myself being 149 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:48,839 Speaker 1: a doctor, just having a nine of five all. I 150 00:08:48,960 --> 00:08:51,480 Speaker 1: never pictured myself sitting in traffic in the morning on 151 00:08:51,520 --> 00:08:53,560 Speaker 1: the way to work or coming home. Just from a 152 00:08:53,600 --> 00:08:56,559 Speaker 1: personal perspective, I don't knock anybody who does that, but 153 00:08:56,600 --> 00:08:58,600 Speaker 1: I never saw myself doing that. It was never an 154 00:08:58,679 --> 00:09:01,760 Speaker 1: differ for different folks. There was never an ambition of mine. 155 00:09:01,840 --> 00:09:06,400 Speaker 1: So I was also I've also been um trapping or 156 00:09:06,520 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 1: you know, selling drugs since I was in the seventh grade, 157 00:09:08,840 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 1: you know what I mean.

I 171 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,959 Speaker 1: end up using those experiences to be you know what 172 00:09:57,000 --> 00:09:59,080 Speaker 1: I mean to just I learned from them, you know. 173 00:09:59,160 --> 00:10:01,520 Speaker 1: And that's that's the main thing about when they say 174 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,320 Speaker 1: living and learn, it's a lot of cliches that that, uh, 175 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 1: I feel like I can I can relate to. So 176 00:10:08,760 --> 00:10:10,839 Speaker 1: I made some I used to love basketball, but when 177 00:10:10,840 --> 00:10:13,200 Speaker 1: I played basketball as a kid, I still was was 178 00:10:13,280 --> 00:10:17,240 Speaker 1: literally hustling me and um one of my homes named Shy. 179 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,880 Speaker 1: We used to take turns whooping, Like one day here 180 00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:21,679 Speaker 1: stay at the trapp and then I go hooping and 181 00:10:21,800 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 1: the next day, um, it will it will switch out, 182 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:27,199 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So I wasn't all the 183 00:10:27,240 --> 00:10:31,280 Speaker 1: way dedicated with whooping. I had natural skills and I 184 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 1: played ball like god given talent.

So I was one 187 00:10:38,559 --> 00:10:41,240 Speaker 1: of those talented people who if somebody was hooping more 188 00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:45,439 Speaker 1: to me than then they were probably um get a 189 00:10:45,520 --> 00:10:47,880 Speaker 1: higher skill set because I was taking days off this 190 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 1: time now when this music feeling my lap when I 191 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,440 Speaker 1: first started doing music, it wasn't consistent. I kind of 192 00:10:54,520 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: was one ft in, one foot out, the same thing, 193 00:10:56,960 --> 00:11:00,400 Speaker 1: hustling making music, going on the road, slip looking for 194 00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:03,440 Speaker 1: a plug.

So when I was able 198 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 1: to go on the road and travel, like I asked 199 00:11:12,960 --> 00:11:16,160 Speaker 1: you all about traveling, my whole thing going to cities 200 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:18,800 Speaker 1: was trying to find out who had work, you know 201 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:21,640 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. Like, I still hadn't really like turned 202 00:11:21,640 --> 00:11:24,360 Speaker 1: that part of me off. And then I went on 203 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 1: tour with with Wayne during Duffle Bad Boys, and I 204 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 1: basically saw what he did every night, and I started 205 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: membericking that. From that point on and my whole career 206 00:11:35,280 --> 00:11:37,480 Speaker 1: in life, everything has changed.

You know, like if you ever watch people 329 00:18:27,119 --> 00:18:31,480 Speaker 1: who who who graduate who go to these that that 330 00:18:31,560 --> 00:18:34,520 Speaker 1: come up in these households where education and stress, when 331 00:18:34,560 --> 00:18:38,200 Speaker 1: people go to the graduation, uh, they're like this, it's 332 00:18:38,320 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 1: very you know, like yeah, yeah, you know that's what 333 00:18:41,600 --> 00:18:44,480 Speaker 1: you know why we're clapping like this because I'm sitting 334 00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:48,840 Speaker 1: there for thinking college next. I ain't h yeah, yeah, 335 00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:52,640 Speaker 1: like it's the end, Like over we made, ain't doing 336 00:18:52,680 --> 00:18:56,400 Speaker 1: all that ship. I'm like, yeah I got the one 337 00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 1: guy next college or next this business, this business thing 338 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: we're about to do. We're about to blow. You know, 339 00:19:03,359 --> 00:19:06,560 Speaker 1: That's how it is. And so it's like path laws law. 340 00:19:06,680 --> 00:19:11,040 Speaker 1: We are who we are the process of conditioning. And 341 00:19:11,440 --> 00:19:13,439 Speaker 1: if I don't give damn who you are, like you 342 00:19:13,480 --> 00:19:16,760 Speaker 1: were saying positive or negative or however you want to 343 00:19:16,760 --> 00:19:19,080 Speaker 1: look at it in different we are who we are 344 00:19:19,160 --> 00:19:22,879 Speaker 1: by process of conditioning. But the thing is that ultimately, 345 00:19:23,320 --> 00:19:25,200 Speaker 1: one thing that I knew growing up in the hood, 346 00:19:25,280 --> 00:19:29,320 Speaker 1: just like everybody in this room, I understood early on 347 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:32,160 Speaker 1: that I was gonna be held accountable for my actions. 348 00:19:32,720 --> 00:19:35,359 Speaker 1: I knew that because I went to jail and ten great. 349 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:38,000 Speaker 1: I mean when I was ten years old, so I 350 00:19:38,520 --> 00:19:42,639 Speaker 1: for burglary at ten years old, I was in juvenile 351 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:47,240 Speaker 1: I'm on the rectors downtown, you know. So I knew 352 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:50,840 Speaker 1: early on that I was going to be held accountable 353 00:19:51,160 --> 00:19:54,320 Speaker 1: for whatever I did. And ultimately, nobody really gives a funk. 354 00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:59,240 Speaker 1: And so if I go out there and do something, 355 00:19:59,320 --> 00:20:01,280 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be able to use where. You know, 356 00:20:01,359 --> 00:20:04,920 Speaker 1: my mom was an alcoholic, my daddy was abusive. This happened, 357 00:20:04,920 --> 00:20:06,960 Speaker 1: and I ain't got no money whatever, and people don't 358 00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:10,080 Speaker 1: give a damn. So ultimately I have to give a 359 00:20:10,160 --> 00:20:13,600 Speaker 1: damn about myself and care more about myself to make 360 00:20:13,640 --> 00:20:16,439 Speaker 1: sure that I don't walk into those traps and I 361 00:20:16,440 --> 00:20:19,919 Speaker 1: don't allow these clowns to capture me and do me 362 00:20:20,040 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 1: dirty because the traps are set for us. They don't 363 00:20:23,320 --> 00:20:26,600 Speaker 1: give a damn about us. We know that. So if 364 00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:30,600 Speaker 1: we know that, then I feel I feel like it's 365 00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,960 Speaker 1: incompet up on each of us to say, you know what, 366 00:20:33,080 --> 00:20:36,560 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna let you motherfucker's fool me. You're not 367 00:20:36,600 --> 00:20:39,720 Speaker 1: gonna get me. Like if we know these mothers out 368 00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,320 Speaker 1: here trying to do us dirty and they're trying to 369 00:20:41,359 --> 00:20:44,560 Speaker 1: capture us, you know, like we got to do it. 370 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,880 Speaker 1: At some point we have to say, you know what, 371 00:20:47,920 --> 00:20:50,560 Speaker 1: this is on me, it's on me. You're not gonna 372 00:20:50,640 --> 00:20:54,000 Speaker 1: get me. Yeah, I mean, you know you know what. 373 00:20:54,080 --> 00:20:57,399 Speaker 1: We're gonna try to ask smart to anything that I 374 00:20:57,920 --> 00:21:01,159 Speaker 1: put in front of us. But I mean, it's just 375 00:21:01,200 --> 00:21:03,959 Speaker 1: hard for me to go against it, to be so 376 00:21:04,080 --> 00:21:06,159 Speaker 1: contracted when I know where I came from, when I 377 00:21:06,200 --> 00:21:10,280 Speaker 1: know what I you know, did, and it can't undo. 378 00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:16,000 Speaker 1: And I got reasons that maybe it may be pathetic 379 00:21:16,119 --> 00:21:18,560 Speaker 1: or they may make sense to some people. Don't you 380 00:21:18,680 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 1: want to be feel like getting just today? But you 381 00:21:21,760 --> 00:21:24,760 Speaker 1: know what you know for the most most part, I'm 382 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:29,600 Speaker 1: I'm a better person that I was yesterday. So I've 383 00:21:29,640 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: been thinking like that for years. You know what I'm saying, 384 00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:36,159 Speaker 1: and and it takes conditioning. You know what I'm saying. 385 00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:41,320 Speaker 1: And even when I was hustling, I enjoyed going to school, 386 00:21:41,400 --> 00:21:45,720 Speaker 1: I enjoyed wearing nice things. I enjoyed, you know, being 387 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:50,000 Speaker 1: a social butterfly, talking, engage and meeting new people. And 388 00:21:50,320 --> 00:21:53,639 Speaker 1: you know, I went to college. I have a college degree. 389 00:21:53,680 --> 00:21:55,879 Speaker 1: I did all. You got a college degree in what 390 00:21:56,680 --> 00:22:02,120 Speaker 1: college for? Yeah, well, when you know better, you do better. 391 00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:04,280 Speaker 1: To your point, when you know better, you do better. 392 00:22:04,280 --> 00:22:07,359 Speaker 1: And you knew at some point you knew better and 393 00:22:07,400 --> 00:22:10,639 Speaker 1: you started doing better. All I'm saying is that ultimately, 394 00:22:10,840 --> 00:22:12,640 Speaker 1: like we all come from the same thing. I mean 395 00:22:12,680 --> 00:22:15,280 Speaker 1: I did, I did my dirt. But I think that 396 00:22:15,320 --> 00:22:18,119 Speaker 1: one of the issues with us uh as as o 397 00:22:18,280 --> 00:22:20,280 Speaker 1: g s is that a lot of times o gees 398 00:22:20,320 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 1: feel like, because we have a past, and you know 399 00:22:23,680 --> 00:22:26,720 Speaker 1: that past is checked, we did some dirty things. We 400 00:22:26,800 --> 00:22:29,840 Speaker 1: feel like if we speak against it, we're being hypocrites. 401 00:22:29,920 --> 00:22:34,520 Speaker 1: And that's not so because it takes that wisdom to 402 00:22:34,640 --> 00:22:36,639 Speaker 1: being parted on the youngsters in order for them to 403 00:22:36,680 --> 00:22:39,440 Speaker 1: get it. We can't sit back and withhold that information. 404 00:22:39,720 --> 00:22:42,960 Speaker 1: We don't have that luxury, you know. I I youth 405 00:22:43,560 --> 00:22:47,560 Speaker 1: reaching out. They're screaming for a guidance. And if you 406 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:50,080 Speaker 1: notice any time and you really talk to the youngsters, 407 00:22:50,400 --> 00:22:55,200 Speaker 1: they always receive it because they respect who is coming from. 408 00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,480 Speaker 1: But you gotta be careful with the youngsters too, because 409 00:22:57,960 --> 00:23:00,720 Speaker 1: you know, we're always young too, and a lot of 410 00:23:00,720 --> 00:23:02,560 Speaker 1: times it ain't about what you did in the past. 411 00:23:02,600 --> 00:23:05,040 Speaker 1: So you gotta watch how you tell somebody how you 412 00:23:05,280 --> 00:23:07,800 Speaker 1: was and how you moved in the past, because it 413 00:23:07,880 --> 00:23:10,919 Speaker 1: would be hard to respect sometimes, specially if if the 414 00:23:10,960 --> 00:23:13,600 Speaker 1: receipt they're looking at now don't look like all the 415 00:23:13,640 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 1: stuff you've been talking about. So, you know, a lot 416 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:19,399 Speaker 1: of young kids, I just man, I got something. I 417 00:23:19,400 --> 00:23:22,440 Speaker 1: got a lot around me, and the preaching don't really work. 418 00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:25,080 Speaker 1: You gotta kind of just show them how to move 419 00:23:25,480 --> 00:23:28,040 Speaker 1: and how to articulate and how to speak to people, 420 00:23:28,080 --> 00:23:30,600 Speaker 1: and just being the room full of women and not 421 00:23:30,800 --> 00:23:33,879 Speaker 1: mean mug and just I got a lot of young casts. 422 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:35,800 Speaker 1: I'm just like just trying to show how to move 423 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:38,080 Speaker 1: just by having them with me. But it was just 424 00:23:38,119 --> 00:23:41,000 Speaker 1: like preaching to them, like they just kind of got 425 00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:42,800 Speaker 1: to hear about some of the stuff that you did. 426 00:23:43,119 --> 00:23:45,120 Speaker 1: It's crazy how they got to hear. You know. It's 427 00:23:45,160 --> 00:23:47,880 Speaker 1: just like man, but but coming out of your mouth 428 00:23:47,960 --> 00:23:50,920 Speaker 1: like boy, I used to do this. Boy you it's funny, man, 429 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:54,280 Speaker 1: because they just don't average twenty one year old They 430 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 1: just don't think they should just think. You know what 431 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,360 Speaker 1: I mean, and you know what I mean. And it's 432 00:23:58,400 --> 00:24:00,760 Speaker 1: a lot on that show is to prove that they 433 00:24:00,760 --> 00:24:03,400 Speaker 1: would the gangster ship, you know what I'm saying, if 434 00:24:03,440 --> 00:24:05,560 Speaker 1: that's where they come from, if they're from the streets. 435 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:08,600 Speaker 1: So it's just like I just be on, I just 436 00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:11,320 Speaker 1: be sleep wanting you young players around mean not to 437 00:24:11,320 --> 00:24:15,520 Speaker 1: play themselves off the streets, whether they be cemetery or penitentially, 438 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 1: Like if you could just like dish those things you 439 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 1: can make and if you you know what I'm saying, 440 00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 1: it's a if you make a mistake and go to 441 00:24:22,359 --> 00:24:24,520 Speaker 1: the penitential, you may get a chance. And if you 442 00:24:24,600 --> 00:24:28,719 Speaker 1: make a mistake and go to the cemetery. So so 443 00:24:39,400 --> 00:24:44,680 Speaker 1: what's going on with uh College Park Scott Hawks? Yeah, 444 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:49,000 Speaker 1: so Scott Hawks is uh, it's aligned with the Atlanta 445 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:52,280 Speaker 1: Hawks in the NBA.

What the NBA did this year was they added, uh, 451 00:25:13,000 --> 00:25:15,440 Speaker 1: three extra players to the roster, so now it's eight team. 452 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,560 Speaker 1: Used to be like fifth team and so the three 453 00:25:17,600 --> 00:25:21,280 Speaker 1: people that So with G League teams, you have something 454 00:25:21,280 --> 00:25:24,200 Speaker 1: that play on.

So I think I'm gonna just continue doing 507 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:08,240 Speaker 1: what I'm doing. This is working. Whatever I'm doing. Want 508 00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:11,520 Speaker 1: to push the button, don't slow down. I think one 509 00:28:11,560 --> 00:28:14,159 Speaker 1: of the things is working for you and your favor, 510 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:17,280 Speaker 1: you know, besides being talented and having the dry that 511 00:28:17,400 --> 00:28:20,800 Speaker 1: you have, is that you're a likable person. You know, 512 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 1: I don't really know, I haven't not really, but I 513 00:28:23,560 --> 00:28:28,040 Speaker 1: haven't heard anybody really saying anything like like projecting any 514 00:28:28,080 --> 00:28:33,000 Speaker 1: type of negative energy on you. So I think that 515 00:28:33,119 --> 00:28:36,000 Speaker 1: has a whole lot to do with it, because you know, 516 00:28:36,480 --> 00:28:38,880 Speaker 1: I see a lot of things going on and hip 517 00:28:38,920 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 1: hop and you know a lot of our losing a 518 00:28:41,240 --> 00:28:44,160 Speaker 1: lot of our artists, you know, um you know, to 519 00:28:44,400 --> 00:28:49,440 Speaker 1: to gun violence and and a lot of it. If 520 00:28:49,480 --> 00:28:51,920 Speaker 1: you if you look at a lot of the people 521 00:28:51,960 --> 00:28:54,840 Speaker 1: that have been affected, it is directly related to the 522 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:58,000 Speaker 1: energy that surrounds there. And so it sounds like to me, 523 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:01,480 Speaker 1: that seems like to me at least you put you 524 00:29:01,560 --> 00:29:06,040 Speaker 1: know yourself around and get energy. You know, we tried to, 525 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:08,640 Speaker 1: you know what I mean. We we all enjoy where 526 00:29:08,640 --> 00:29:12,080 Speaker 1: we come from, so we be hard to disconnect. You know, 527 00:29:12,800 --> 00:29:15,920 Speaker 1: there's your mature and get wife and kids. You start 528 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:19,360 Speaker 1: trying to see what that you know, what all do 529 00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,200 Speaker 1: families got going on and start just thinking different, especially 530 00:29:25,240 --> 00:29:27,560 Speaker 1: with the kids, man, especially with me being attached to 531 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:31,920 Speaker 1: the kids, just trying to, um, not let them down. 532 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 1: You know, that's that's the main thing for me, not 533 00:29:35,480 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 1: not let them down. Not embarrass your family, barsh your wife, 534 00:29:39,160 --> 00:29:44,040 Speaker 1: embarrass your mom, bearsh your kids. So you know, I'm 535 00:29:44,080 --> 00:29:46,680 Speaker 1: be be having to think twice before you make one 536 00:29:46,920 --> 00:29:51,120 Speaker 1: one decision. That's all that is, be able to think 537 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:55,520 Speaker 1: twice before you make one decision.

But the the 548 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:34,440 Speaker 1: it's it's basically improv you know what I'm saying. It's 549 00:30:34,520 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: based on people to have something so expensive that other 550 00:30:39,440 --> 00:30:41,640 Speaker 1: people don't see the value in it or don't know 551 00:30:41,760 --> 00:30:46,120 Speaker 1: why they have, and I actually meet them on camera. 552 00:30:46,240 --> 00:30:49,280 Speaker 1: That's the show.

I've been invested in 754 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:12,399 Speaker 1: crypto for probably about six years. I was an early 755 00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:17,799 Speaker 1: invest in dog coin. Really yeah, rich mother sit up 756 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:19,799 Speaker 1: when they just got some months sitting up the out 757 00:42:19,880 --> 00:42:23,239 Speaker 1: looking at rich motherfucker. Yeah. Man, I hit a lick early, man, 758 00:42:23,480 --> 00:42:26,440 Speaker 1: you did earl earlier. So yeah, yeah, man, you know, 759 00:42:28,040 --> 00:42:32,040 Speaker 1: and Nipsey. Me and Nipsey used to talk crypto. Yeah, yeah, yeah, 760 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:37,279 Speaker 1: that ship. Yeah when nip I was when when nip 761 00:42:37,520 --> 00:42:40,560 Speaker 1: got in, I can't remember the name of the crypto 762 00:42:40,680 --> 00:42:44,439 Speaker 1: that he got into, but he partnered with some people. 763 00:42:44,480 --> 00:42:48,320 Speaker 1: They gave him some some crypto and you know, so 764 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:51,680 Speaker 1: that he could uh you know, um, you know, basically 765 00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:55,120 Speaker 1: promoted for them. And then I started turning them onto 766 00:42:55,200 --> 00:42:59,480 Speaker 1: the other coins because most times people most people don't 767 00:42:59,480 --> 00:43:03,439 Speaker 1: even know about anything other than big coin, indulge corn. 768 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:06,799 Speaker 1: You know. For a long time, people just heard about 769 00:43:06,880 --> 00:43:09,680 Speaker 1: big coin, but they didn't know the functionality ever. But 770 00:43:10,080 --> 00:43:12,759 Speaker 1: dolge coin came along and then it started like introducing 771 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:15,960 Speaker 1: people to people started getting introduced to other coins, like, 772 00:43:16,080 --> 00:43:18,959 Speaker 1: oh damn, that's another coin out there besides big coin. 773 00:43:19,640 --> 00:43:23,680 Speaker 1: But those other coins out there, uh you know, you 774 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:27,279 Speaker 1: many of the other coins out there are more risk here, 775 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:32,040 Speaker 1: but you have a greater chance of ex scene than 776 00:43:32,120 --> 00:43:34,960 Speaker 1: you have with big coin. Because big coin has such 777 00:43:35,000 --> 00:43:37,359 Speaker 1: a large market cap. A lot of people when they 778 00:43:37,400 --> 00:43:40,800 Speaker 1: think crypto, they try to buy the cheapest. Oh this 779 00:43:40,920 --> 00:43:43,479 Speaker 1: is just a penny, you know, but they're not looking 780 00:43:43,520 --> 00:43:46,200 Speaker 1: at the they're not looking at the cap the market cap, 781 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:48,560 Speaker 1: it might be a penny, but if the market cap 782 00:43:48,719 --> 00:43:52,240 Speaker 1: is already at let's say, you know, a hundred billion, 783 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:55,319 Speaker 1: then it ain't like it's gonna go all the way 784 00:43:55,440 --> 00:43:59,960 Speaker 1: up to to you know, a trillion dollars, two trillion dollar. 785 00:44:00,239 --> 00:44:01,799 Speaker 1: It may get that, but it will take a while 786 00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:04,960 Speaker 1: to get that way. As other coins that are that 787 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:09,440 Speaker 1: have lower market caps, uh, they have a greater chance 788 00:44:10,000 --> 00:44:14,839 Speaker 1: of exing because there's so much room to grow. So yeah, man, 789 00:44:14,920 --> 00:44:19,279 Speaker 1: you know you can. It's like gambling to me. I 790 00:44:19,400 --> 00:44:23,840 Speaker 1: like to get It's beautiful, man, I I jumped on. 791 00:44:24,960 --> 00:44:28,279 Speaker 1: You know, the Ellen corn is crazy, right, so, uh 792 00:44:28,920 --> 00:44:33,600 Speaker 1: you know they got ellen Gate. This is a corn 793 00:44:33,719 --> 00:44:37,640 Speaker 1: that's that's a pro Elon Musk coin, right, So they 794 00:44:37,719 --> 00:44:41,400 Speaker 1: got e lien Gate, they got uh fuck Ellen, and 795 00:44:41,480 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 1: then they got another corn called stop Ellen. So there's 796 00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:49,880 Speaker 1: two anti Elon Musk coins and then it's one uh 797 00:44:50,600 --> 00:44:54,200 Speaker 1: pro right, I'm investing it all of them, so I'm 798 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:55,920 Speaker 1: gonna get them coming and going. So it's people that 799 00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:59,920 Speaker 1: hay Elon Musk and so so they're betting against him, 800 00:45:00,480 --> 00:45:02,919 Speaker 1: and they're they're putting their money, investing their money into 801 00:45:03,000 --> 00:45:05,239 Speaker 1: those coins that where they hate them, and then there 802 00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:08,640 Speaker 1: are people that rolling with them and they're investing in 803 00:45:09,280 --> 00:45:11,800 Speaker 1: the e lien gate. I'm investing in all three of 804 00:45:11,840 --> 00:45:14,160 Speaker 1: them because all three of them are gonna basically hit. 805 00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 1: In fact, I already hit on the line corn once. Yeah. 806 00:45:19,520 --> 00:45:22,759 Speaker 1: I think I put up like ten racks and within 807 00:45:22,880 --> 00:45:25,280 Speaker 1: twenty four hours I hit them for like a hundred 808 00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:29,320 Speaker 1: and eighty. Yeah.
