The Google always decided the time, 79 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:55,440 Speaker 6: So yeah, yeah, a Google pay. So let's get into this. 80 00:03:55,600 --> 00:03:57,560 Speaker 6: So all right, we're going to talk about a variety 81 00:03:57,600 --> 00:03:59,760 Speaker 6: of different things today and it's going to be a 82 00:03:59,800 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 6: free flowing conversation. So the first thing we want to 83 00:04:02,960 --> 00:04:06,800 Speaker 6: talk about is financial etiquette as far as like what's 84 00:04:06,920 --> 00:04:09,320 Speaker 6: table right, because this is something that's extremely important not 85 00:04:09,320 --> 00:04:14,040 Speaker 6: only for adults, but for adults that's teaching their children. 86 00:04:14,640 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 6: And I feel like children learn about financial literacy through us, 87 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:22,599 Speaker 6: through adults, through their parents. So sometimes I feel like 88 00:04:22,600 --> 00:04:28,920 Speaker 6: we're teaching children bad habits without even actually realizing. So 89 00:04:29,200 --> 00:04:31,320 Speaker 6: I'm going to talk about a couple of different things. 90 00:04:31,360 --> 00:04:34,000 Speaker 6: I want to get your opinion, and I want you 91 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 6: to rate these things on the taboo scale, one being 92 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:41,320 Speaker 6: not tabled at all, ten being extremely table, and then 93 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:43,440 Speaker 6: I'm going to ask you, you know, if it's the 94 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,360 Speaker 6: wrong way to actually phrase the question, what will be 95 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,680 Speaker 6: the right way to phrase the question? So the first 96 00:04:48,720 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 6: one that I want to ask you is this. 97 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 3: We got to see if she's ready? 98 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,440 Speaker 8: You ready, I'm ready. 99 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,080 Speaker 7: I feel like this is double Dutch and I'm on 100 00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:57,880 Speaker 7: the outside. Just kind of do it like this like 101 00:04:57,960 --> 00:04:59,000 Speaker 7: tack me in, guys on. 102 00:05:00,400 --> 00:05:01,600 Speaker 3: That was a rhetorical question. 103 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:07,760 Speaker 6: We always the first one. This is something that I 104 00:05:07,760 --> 00:05:11,160 Speaker 6: actually recently gave a Ted talk about this. I used 105 00:05:11,200 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 6: to always ask adult this all the time and I 106 00:05:13,560 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 6: got I never really got a real answer. How much 107 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:20,600 Speaker 6: money do you make? This is extremely important question. I'm 108 00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 6: going to explain is why this is important because I 109 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,000 Speaker 6: feel like, especially for children, in order for them to 110 00:05:26,120 --> 00:05:30,159 Speaker 6: aspire to be something, it's good to actually have a 111 00:05:30,200 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 6: gauge of what to expect. So it's like, all right, 112 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,120 Speaker 6: you might want to be an architect, but how much 113 00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,680 Speaker 6: money does an architect make? Depending on how much money 114 00:05:37,680 --> 00:05:40,680 Speaker 6: an architect makes, that might determine if you actually want 115 00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,599 Speaker 6: to be an architect or not. So it's easy to 116 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:46,000 Speaker 6: find out how much a sports player makes because we 117 00:05:46,040 --> 00:05:48,600 Speaker 6: could just look and see how Hey, Lebron James makes 118 00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:52,440 Speaker 6: forty million dollars a year, so that's easy. But you 119 00:05:52,480 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 6: know a lot of these other professions are not listed 120 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 6: and you don't know. So when I used to ask 121 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:00,240 Speaker 6: these questions a lot, you know, sometimes people tell you, 122 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 6: but a lot of times they'd be like, you know, 123 00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:06,719 Speaker 6: that's rule, don't ask adults, and even as adults sometimes, 124 00:06:06,760 --> 00:06:10,159 Speaker 6: like being a financial advisor, I used to have to 125 00:06:10,200 --> 00:06:13,200 Speaker 6: sit down with clients and I would ask them, you 126 00:06:13,240 --> 00:06:16,080 Speaker 6: know how much money you made? After a while, people 127 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,560 Speaker 6: started telling me. But a couple of times people would 128 00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:22,200 Speaker 6: get a little nervous and they'd be like they were 129 00:06:22,360 --> 00:06:24,800 Speaker 6: it was weird. So I could tell that they were 130 00:06:24,800 --> 00:06:27,960 Speaker 6: wired from a young age to not not to discuss 131 00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:30,680 Speaker 6: how much money they make. So how do you feel 132 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:33,279 Speaker 6: about that? Is that a taboot question to ask or not? 133 00:06:34,800 --> 00:06:38,560 Speaker 7: Okay, So I'm gonna write this guys, and Rashad you've 134 00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,800 Speaker 7: already kind of tap into it. On a scale from 135 00:06:41,800 --> 00:06:45,560 Speaker 7: one ten, I would rate this like an ad like 136 00:06:45,720 --> 00:06:47,760 Speaker 7: a nine, maybe nine. 137 00:06:47,560 --> 00:06:48,160 Speaker 8: And a half. 138 00:06:48,520 --> 00:06:50,240 Speaker 7: And the reason why I say that is some of 139 00:06:50,279 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 7: the reasons that you already alluded to, and it's that 140 00:06:53,440 --> 00:06:59,560 Speaker 7: I think that society sometimes erroneously associates someone's personal wealth 141 00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:04,720 Speaker 7: but the economic value that they create specifically in the workforce, 142 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:08,279 Speaker 7: and we know that this correlation is absolutely incorrect. 143 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:08,560 Speaker 3: Right. 144 00:07:08,640 --> 00:07:12,120 Speaker 7: People can create value in many different ways, both inside 145 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:15,840 Speaker 7: and outside the workplace. So when we enter into conversations 146 00:07:15,840 --> 00:07:18,440 Speaker 7: and we know that this is very much a taboo topic, 147 00:07:18,600 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 7: I think we enter into what some folks call the 148 00:07:21,360 --> 00:07:24,920 Speaker 7: numbers game, right, where the person who has the highest 149 00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,880 Speaker 7: number is somehow perceived as being the winner, that number 150 00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,800 Speaker 7: being your wage and your salary, and those folks who 151 00:07:31,840 --> 00:07:34,880 Speaker 7: have the lower number, right, those folks feel a little shame, 152 00:07:35,000 --> 00:07:37,400 Speaker 7: maybe you feel a little disappointment because you feel like 153 00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 7: you can't compete with that individual. But here's the thing, right, 154 00:07:41,320 --> 00:07:44,400 Speaker 7: there are so many different ways in which salary and 155 00:07:44,520 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 7: earning can be influenced. 156 00:07:46,280 --> 00:07:47,840 Speaker 8: One of those things is negotiation. 157 00:07:48,360 --> 00:07:50,520 Speaker 7: But there's also a few things that you can't really 158 00:07:50,560 --> 00:07:52,200 Speaker 7: control to a certain extent. 159 00:07:52,640 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 8: Office politics. 160 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:57,000 Speaker 7: We know offices have their own little political ideologies and 161 00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:58,280 Speaker 7: the ways that people operate. 162 00:07:58,720 --> 00:08:00,000 Speaker 8: There's also the wage gain. 163 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 7: So people of color and also women specifically are affected 164 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,840 Speaker 7: by that. I'm a black woman, I've been affected by that. 165 00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 7: But then also company budgets. So when you think about 166 00:08:09,760 --> 00:08:13,680 Speaker 7: the social sector, there are people who create maximum value 167 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 7: in really phenomenal ways, but the way in which the 168 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 7: budget is set up, perhaps they can't be compensated to 169 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,920 Speaker 7: the extent to which is they contribute. So when we're 170 00:08:21,960 --> 00:08:24,160 Speaker 7: talking about the numbers game, one of the things that 171 00:08:24,200 --> 00:08:27,000 Speaker 7: I think is it becomes taboo because people are trying 172 00:08:27,040 --> 00:08:27,360 Speaker 7: not to. 173 00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 8: Quote unquote lose. 174 00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:31,400 Speaker 7: On the other hand, though, I think it's important that 175 00:08:31,440 --> 00:08:34,400 Speaker 7: we absolutely have those conversations. I was reading or report 176 00:08:34,480 --> 00:08:37,640 Speaker 7: by Society of Human Resource Managers and one of the 177 00:08:37,679 --> 00:08:41,680 Speaker 7: things that they said is women negotiate their salary. Only 178 00:08:41,720 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 7: forty five percent of women negotiate their salary. 179 00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 8: And when you're talking about. 180 00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:49,040 Speaker 7: Men, sixty eight percent of men negotiate their salary. And 181 00:08:49,080 --> 00:08:50,679 Speaker 7: the way that you come in at a job, that 182 00:08:50,840 --> 00:08:53,400 Speaker 7: starting salary can influence the ways in which you earn 183 00:08:53,520 --> 00:08:54,280 Speaker 7: over the years. 184 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,320 Speaker 6: Well, let me just follow up on that, because that 185 00:08:58,400 --> 00:09:03,320 Speaker 6: actually fly a follow up. So negotiation of job this 186 00:09:03,440 --> 00:09:05,840 Speaker 6: is also a very awful conversation. I want to ask 187 00:09:05,880 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 6: you a two part questions. The first one is going 188 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 6: to be from an employee standpoint. So when you're at 189 00:09:11,440 --> 00:09:15,160 Speaker 6: a job, interview and you get through all of this 190 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:19,600 Speaker 6: situation and all of that, at what point should you 191 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:24,160 Speaker 6: ask how much you're going to be paid? Or should 192 00:09:24,240 --> 00:09:26,920 Speaker 6: you say this is how much I would like to 193 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 6: be paid, because this is something that's real. You know, 194 00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 6: everybody's kind of nervous with their job, so a lot 195 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:36,160 Speaker 6: of people are going in and they're scared to say 196 00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:38,000 Speaker 6: how much they want to be paid. They don't even 197 00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:40,680 Speaker 6: ask how much, and then it's like you just take 198 00:09:40,720 --> 00:09:45,320 Speaker 6: whatever is offered to you. So at what point should 199 00:09:45,320 --> 00:09:48,920 Speaker 6: you bring up salary and how should you bring that up? 200 00:09:49,280 --> 00:09:50,960 Speaker 3: And then we got to rate that because that's a 201 00:09:50,960 --> 00:09:52,760 Speaker 3: great question. But on one to ten, what are we 202 00:09:52,840 --> 00:09:53,320 Speaker 3: going with this? 203 00:09:54,440 --> 00:09:56,320 Speaker 7: Yeah, well, I mean I think it's a not for 204 00:09:56,360 --> 00:09:58,439 Speaker 7: a table conversation, but we have to rate the extent 205 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,600 Speaker 7: to which you should be asking the question. It should 206 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:03,640 Speaker 7: be an absolute ten. And I think that's where the 207 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,320 Speaker 7: research comes into play. And you always like to say, 208 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 7: don't swim in the ocean of knowledge and drowning ignorance. 209 00:10:09,760 --> 00:10:11,800 Speaker 7: You want to make sure that you're doing your research 210 00:10:11,840 --> 00:10:15,439 Speaker 7: about that particular position even as you're applying to the job. 211 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 7: But you also want to find people who are in 212 00:10:17,840 --> 00:10:20,920 Speaker 7: that industry and you want to have a courageous conversation. 213 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:24,320 Speaker 7: Maybe you don't approach it like young ershad and you say, hey, 214 00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:25,200 Speaker 7: how much money you do? 215 00:10:25,240 --> 00:10:26,240 Speaker 8: You may, but you. 216 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 7: Say in context, I'm trying to enter into your industry, right, 217 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 7: and I see the position that you work. 218 00:10:33,440 --> 00:10:34,960 Speaker 8: I aspire to be where you are. 219 00:10:35,280 --> 00:10:38,240 Speaker 7: Can you give me the range in which people in 220 00:10:38,280 --> 00:10:42,240 Speaker 7: this position make in regard to salary. What I've learned 221 00:10:42,280 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 7: is sometimes people are more comfortable to give you a range. 222 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,439 Speaker 7: Remember they're making one hundred thousand dollars, but they don't 223 00:10:46,440 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 7: want to tell you that, and they'll say you can 224 00:10:48,000 --> 00:10:50,800 Speaker 7: make between ninety one hundred and fifteen. You pair that 225 00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 7: up with the research that you find on the internet, 226 00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:54,760 Speaker 7: and I think that sets you up in a good 227 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,240 Speaker 7: position so that when you go into the interview, you 228 00:10:57,280 --> 00:10:59,160 Speaker 7: can ask what are they offering? 229 00:10:59,280 --> 00:11:02,320 Speaker 8: And you know, at least from your negotiation position, what 230 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:03,360 Speaker 8: may be fair or not. 231 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm going to go back to the beginning question 232 00:11:06,440 --> 00:11:08,960 Speaker 2: because twenty years ago, that's exactly how I got into 233 00:11:09,000 --> 00:11:12,120 Speaker 2: the professional teaching. I asked the teacher, my favorite phys 234 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:13,719 Speaker 2: that teacher, I said, how much you make? He told 235 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:16,199 Speaker 2: me one hundred and fifty thousand. I said, you. 236 00:11:16,160 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 3: Can make that as a teacher, and he told me 237 00:11:17,880 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 3: again he had a whole plan. 238 00:11:21,480 --> 00:11:21,880 Speaker 9: This was it. 239 00:11:22,000 --> 00:11:24,200 Speaker 3: He had base salary, which is one hundred and twenty. 240 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 3: He had been working for twenty five years. 241 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,360 Speaker 2: And then he coached sports that he thought nobody really 242 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:29,960 Speaker 2: cared about at the school. So he was the golf 243 00:11:30,000 --> 00:11:33,120 Speaker 2: coach in our community. People weren't really playing golf. He 244 00:11:33,160 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 2: was the bowling coach. We didn't even know we had 245 00:11:35,040 --> 00:11:38,240 Speaker 2: a bowling team, and ye had soccer coach, and so 246 00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:40,840 Speaker 2: he combined all those salaries, and I said, that's what 247 00:11:40,920 --> 00:11:42,439 Speaker 2: I want to be. And so I'm glad that you 248 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,880 Speaker 2: asked that shot, that you asked that question and the 249 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:46,960 Speaker 2: way your answered perfect. But I'm going to ask you 250 00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:48,360 Speaker 2: one and you can rate this one to ten on 251 00:11:48,400 --> 00:11:51,400 Speaker 2: taboo because how much you make is important, But how 252 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:55,360 Speaker 2: much do you owe is another conversation that we really 253 00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:59,120 Speaker 2: have and it can be a little country and be 254 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,640 Speaker 2: a little embarrassed. But how you rate it and how 255 00:12:01,679 --> 00:12:03,280 Speaker 2: do we ask this in a more comforment. 256 00:12:04,320 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 7: Yeah, that's a really good question. I would say I 257 00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 7: would rate that up at a nine or ten. A 258 00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 7: lot of us experience a lot of anxiety, you know, 259 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,840 Speaker 7: as it relates to money, right, And a lot of 260 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:18,559 Speaker 7: that anxiety is triggered by life experiences. 261 00:12:18,640 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 2: Right. 262 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:20,880 Speaker 7: Maybe you're going through a divorce. You're trying to figure 263 00:12:20,880 --> 00:12:23,559 Speaker 7: out how much just separation is going to cause. Maybe 264 00:12:23,600 --> 00:12:26,079 Speaker 7: you spend all the way up to your credit limit. Right, 265 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 7: maybe you're behind on your car payments. And a lot 266 00:12:28,920 --> 00:12:31,160 Speaker 7: of this has to do with, right, the money that 267 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 7: you owe or that you could owe, And a lot 268 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:35,720 Speaker 7: of people feel a lot of embarrassment around that because 269 00:12:35,720 --> 00:12:38,480 Speaker 7: they think that people might judge them. I think the 270 00:12:38,520 --> 00:12:40,880 Speaker 7: way in which you approach that conversation is going to 271 00:12:40,920 --> 00:12:43,080 Speaker 7: go back to the C word that I mentioned earlier, 272 00:12:43,320 --> 00:12:45,080 Speaker 7: and that has to do with contexts. 273 00:12:45,400 --> 00:12:46,440 Speaker 8: Why are you asking me? 274 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,440 Speaker 7: Like when you ask that question to another individual, is 275 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:52,439 Speaker 7: it because you're asking that question because you want to 276 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:55,000 Speaker 7: support them? Are you asking that question because you would 277 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:57,520 Speaker 7: like to share information? Are you asking that question for 278 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,160 Speaker 7: real practical things like maybe you're in a relationship and 279 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:03,000 Speaker 7: you're about to move in together. Right, you're thinking that 280 00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 7: you're about to get into a relationship get married to somebody, 281 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 7: but you're marrying them and you're marrying their earning And 282 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:11,640 Speaker 7: also their debt and so having that type of conversation 283 00:13:11,760 --> 00:13:13,960 Speaker 7: can help sex you up with the type of financial 284 00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,679 Speaker 7: plan to platform you in a position where you can 285 00:13:16,720 --> 00:13:20,400 Speaker 7: be successful. I think context around the ways in which 286 00:13:20,440 --> 00:13:23,200 Speaker 7: we manage currency is the best ways in which we 287 00:13:23,240 --> 00:13:24,720 Speaker 7: can have these conversations. 288 00:13:26,360 --> 00:13:30,000 Speaker 6: Let me ask you this for business owners, this is 289 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:37,560 Speaker 6: another awkward conversation to have when people ask how much 290 00:13:37,679 --> 00:13:40,400 Speaker 6: are their services? And I see this all the time. 291 00:13:40,559 --> 00:13:44,200 Speaker 6: People kind of get nervous. Some people say, you can 292 00:13:44,240 --> 00:13:48,760 Speaker 6: give me what you think is worth. People they'll say, like, well, 293 00:13:48,960 --> 00:13:52,040 Speaker 6: it's cost this, but for you, I'll do this. Like 294 00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:55,640 Speaker 6: I feel like this is extremely important for entrepreneurs to 295 00:13:55,720 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 6: be confident in their in their price points. So how 296 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 6: do you develop confidence in your price points? And how 297 00:14:04,360 --> 00:14:07,959 Speaker 6: do you know? Because I know why people short change 298 00:14:07,960 --> 00:14:10,240 Speaker 6: themselves because they're thinking that they're going to say a 299 00:14:10,280 --> 00:14:13,000 Speaker 6: number that's too high and people are going to walk 300 00:14:13,040 --> 00:14:16,480 Speaker 6: away and they'll rather take some money than no money. 301 00:14:16,679 --> 00:14:21,400 Speaker 6: But doing that actually compromising the business and technrituy. Really, 302 00:14:22,160 --> 00:14:23,800 Speaker 6: what's your advice for business owners? 303 00:14:24,200 --> 00:14:29,440 Speaker 7: Listen you speaking my language. Now, that's entrepreneurship. I always 304 00:14:29,440 --> 00:14:32,720 Speaker 7: tell folks, if you are selling a product or service, 305 00:14:32,800 --> 00:14:34,120 Speaker 7: then nobody wants to buy. 306 00:14:34,520 --> 00:14:36,920 Speaker 8: You don't have a business, you have a hib B. 307 00:14:37,320 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 7: But on the other hand, sometimes you absolutely do have 308 00:14:40,320 --> 00:14:44,040 Speaker 7: a business, but you have the wrong customer. As an entrepreneur, 309 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:48,760 Speaker 7: it is absolutely important that you price the product according 310 00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:50,960 Speaker 7: to what it took for you to craft that product. 311 00:14:51,000 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 7: What are all the materials, right? What are all the 312 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 7: services that you have to pay for in order for 313 00:14:56,040 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 7: you to bring that product to market. After you do that, 314 00:14:59,400 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 7: you have to the type of customer for which your 315 00:15:02,280 --> 00:15:05,560 Speaker 7: product or service is a solution. And when you find 316 00:15:05,600 --> 00:15:08,280 Speaker 7: that person, it's important for you to understand this. You 317 00:15:08,320 --> 00:15:12,440 Speaker 7: need to charge what it costs, unapologetically, and they need 318 00:15:12,480 --> 00:15:16,960 Speaker 7: to pay what it's absolutely worth. I heard you mentioned, Hey, 319 00:15:17,120 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 7: you know, I know these individuals right pay you know 320 00:15:20,120 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 7: whatever it is because we have a relationship. 321 00:15:22,720 --> 00:15:25,880 Speaker 8: But here's the thing with friends and family discounts. 322 00:15:25,960 --> 00:15:27,840 Speaker 7: Right one, there's a lot of people asking for the 323 00:15:27,920 --> 00:15:30,400 Speaker 7: friends and family discount and they're not even related to you. 324 00:15:31,440 --> 00:15:33,800 Speaker 8: And number two, when it comes out for. 325 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:37,320 Speaker 7: Friends and family discounts and people pricing out products, they 326 00:15:37,400 --> 00:15:39,840 Speaker 7: weren't there when you started your t shirt business and 327 00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:41,400 Speaker 7: you had to figure out whether it was going to 328 00:15:41,400 --> 00:15:43,760 Speaker 7: be direct to government print, whether you had to get 329 00:15:43,760 --> 00:15:45,840 Speaker 7: an envelope, whether you was going to stamp it, whether 330 00:15:45,920 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 7: it was going to be a drop ship. They weren't 331 00:15:48,760 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 7: there looking at your cash flow statements, cash and cash out, 332 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:55,920 Speaker 7: So asking them to make a business decision as a consumer, 333 00:15:56,240 --> 00:15:58,720 Speaker 7: it's just not the right entrepreneurial approach. 334 00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:04,600 Speaker 3: You professor keys for nothing. 335 00:16:04,960 --> 00:16:06,680 Speaker 8: What I had to fend the family discount. 336 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:08,520 Speaker 7: I was like, listen, I just grewen these and just 337 00:16:08,600 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 7: that y'all trying to, you know, snatch them out. 338 00:16:10,840 --> 00:16:16,400 Speaker 6: Listen, crazy family they just met yesterday exactly. 339 00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:20,480 Speaker 3: We passed that segment with flying colors. 340 00:16:20,560 --> 00:16:22,480 Speaker 2: We're going to move on to our next sevent It's 341 00:16:22,520 --> 00:16:25,520 Speaker 2: called best move, worst move, And so a lot of 342 00:16:25,560 --> 00:16:27,720 Speaker 2: times we have a relationship with money. 343 00:16:27,720 --> 00:16:29,160 Speaker 3: Could be positive, it could be negative. 344 00:16:29,160 --> 00:16:31,360 Speaker 2: But everybody's gonna have a relationship with it, and everybody's 345 00:16:31,360 --> 00:16:33,040 Speaker 2: gonna have a journey that comes along with it. So 346 00:16:33,760 --> 00:16:36,240 Speaker 2: I want to start with what is the best move 347 00:16:36,320 --> 00:16:39,920 Speaker 2: somebody can have in the beginning or in the middle 348 00:16:39,960 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 2: part of their financial journey. 349 00:16:43,080 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 7: I always tell people that you have to put your 350 00:16:46,720 --> 00:16:49,680 Speaker 7: money to work. I like to think of my money 351 00:16:50,040 --> 00:16:53,600 Speaker 7: as a person. Right in my financial life. And what 352 00:16:53,640 --> 00:16:56,560 Speaker 7: that means is that money can't live in my house 353 00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:00,320 Speaker 7: and not go get yourself a job. What what I 354 00:17:00,360 --> 00:17:02,920 Speaker 7: mean by that? That means that your money needs to 355 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,600 Speaker 7: be going to work for you and your savings account. Right, 356 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:10,600 Speaker 7: are you saving money in an account that accrues interest? 357 00:17:10,920 --> 00:17:11,160 Speaker 8: Right? 358 00:17:11,400 --> 00:17:13,600 Speaker 7: Your money needs to be going to work for you 359 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 7: in investments, however, that looks like whether you're investing in 360 00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,000 Speaker 7: real estate or whether you're investing through. 361 00:17:18,840 --> 00:17:21,560 Speaker 8: A brokerage account. Inflation is real. 362 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 7: I mean this year, I think they're estimateing that inflation 363 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:26,399 Speaker 7: is going to be between four percent and six percent. 364 00:17:26,400 --> 00:17:29,000 Speaker 7: And that means that your dollar today is not worth 365 00:17:29,040 --> 00:17:30,879 Speaker 7: the same as your dollar last year. 366 00:17:31,240 --> 00:17:32,960 Speaker 8: So how is your money going to work? 367 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 7: In investments where the returns can be much higher than 368 00:17:35,720 --> 00:17:38,760 Speaker 7: what inflations could be ten percent, twelve percent? That is 369 00:17:38,840 --> 00:17:41,680 Speaker 7: money going to work. Finally, you need to be thinking 370 00:17:41,720 --> 00:17:43,600 Speaker 7: about how your money could be going to work in 371 00:17:43,680 --> 00:17:47,520 Speaker 7: multiple streams of income. I have perhaps a similar story 372 00:17:47,600 --> 00:17:48,440 Speaker 7: to you, Troy. 373 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:49,480 Speaker 2: I don't know, but. 374 00:17:49,440 --> 00:17:51,600 Speaker 8: I was working a job for a little bit. 375 00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:54,560 Speaker 7: I got hired into the job as an events manager, 376 00:17:55,040 --> 00:17:59,640 Speaker 7: and I inherited a really talented administrative assistant we work 377 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:00,760 Speaker 7: together for two years. 378 00:18:00,800 --> 00:18:04,600 Speaker 8: She went and she found another position, another job. 379 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:06,320 Speaker 7: But when she left, she said, now I'm going to 380 00:18:06,359 --> 00:18:09,320 Speaker 7: make sixty thousand dollars. It's ten thousand more than what 381 00:18:09,359 --> 00:18:11,920 Speaker 7: I'm making now, which would have been fifty thousand. Well, 382 00:18:11,960 --> 00:18:14,520 Speaker 7: the crazy thing about it is at that time I 383 00:18:14,560 --> 00:18:18,879 Speaker 7: was making forty two thousand dollars. My administrative assistant was 384 00:18:18,920 --> 00:18:22,199 Speaker 7: making more than me for two years. And when I 385 00:18:22,240 --> 00:18:24,520 Speaker 7: heard that conversation, one of the promises that I made 386 00:18:24,560 --> 00:18:26,960 Speaker 7: to myself. One, I would be having a courageous conversation 387 00:18:27,000 --> 00:18:29,719 Speaker 7: as it relates to negotiations. But two, I need to 388 00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:32,439 Speaker 7: make sure that I put the money that I'm earning 389 00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:35,920 Speaker 7: to work in a side business, in a side hustle. 390 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 7: The thing that I want people to realize and understand 391 00:18:39,480 --> 00:18:41,600 Speaker 7: when it comes down to best money moves is that 392 00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:43,480 Speaker 7: if your money is in your house, eating up all 393 00:18:43,520 --> 00:18:46,280 Speaker 7: your food, drinking up all your water, leaving your lights on, 394 00:18:46,400 --> 00:18:50,640 Speaker 7: running your life, buila, then your money is proverbally under 395 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:51,520 Speaker 7: your mattress. 396 00:18:51,760 --> 00:18:54,560 Speaker 3: So all right, so those are the best moves. 397 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,400 Speaker 2: What are some of the worst moves that people can 398 00:18:57,480 --> 00:19:00,000 Speaker 2: make and have made in their financial journce. 399 00:19:01,160 --> 00:19:04,000 Speaker 7: I would say this not getting all up in your 400 00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,800 Speaker 7: money's business. And I don't know how y'all grew up 401 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:10,120 Speaker 7: in your household, but this is how I grew up. 402 00:19:10,320 --> 00:19:12,520 Speaker 7: We don't lock no doors in my house because when 403 00:19:12,520 --> 00:19:14,520 Speaker 7: you lock a door in your house, when you a child. 404 00:19:14,320 --> 00:19:15,680 Speaker 8: Gets taken off the hinges. 405 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:16,040 Speaker 2: Right. 406 00:19:16,640 --> 00:19:18,520 Speaker 7: When it comes down to privacy, of course, you want 407 00:19:18,560 --> 00:19:20,680 Speaker 7: to respect the privacy of your child. But if you're 408 00:19:20,880 --> 00:19:22,639 Speaker 7: you know, paying all the bills in your house, let 409 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:24,399 Speaker 7: me tell you something, there's not going to be too 410 00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,800 Speaker 7: many secrets up in that house. I think sometimes when 411 00:19:27,800 --> 00:19:31,879 Speaker 7: it comes down to money, people make guestiments when it 412 00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:35,040 Speaker 7: comes to spending and also when it comes to earning. 413 00:19:35,440 --> 00:19:37,080 Speaker 7: And so I'd like to tell people you need to 414 00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 7: get all up in your money's business. 415 00:19:39,400 --> 00:19:40,359 Speaker 8: What does that look like? 416 00:19:40,400 --> 00:19:43,720 Speaker 7: So we're talking about savings, people say, okay, you need 417 00:19:43,760 --> 00:19:46,800 Speaker 7: to have three to six months worth of emergency savings. 418 00:19:46,920 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 7: In order to calculate that, you need to understand how 419 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:51,639 Speaker 7: much you make each month. 420 00:19:52,080 --> 00:19:54,120 Speaker 8: Have you taken a critical look. 421 00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:57,560 Speaker 7: At your earnings, at your deposits and also looked at 422 00:19:57,600 --> 00:20:01,320 Speaker 7: what you spend so cash in and cash oh, and gotten. 423 00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 8: Down to that bottom number. 424 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:04,760 Speaker 7: That's a big reason why like Google pay because you 425 00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:07,320 Speaker 7: can see the money that you spent. You can also 426 00:20:07,440 --> 00:20:09,600 Speaker 7: search like deposits, and it lets you know how many 427 00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:11,439 Speaker 7: deposits have come in and you can also see what 428 00:20:11,520 --> 00:20:14,480 Speaker 7: you spent. The other thing is I think it's important 429 00:20:14,520 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 7: for you to understand if you're investing in let's say 430 00:20:18,119 --> 00:20:21,359 Speaker 7: you're retirement, so an individual retirement account of four one K, 431 00:20:21,480 --> 00:20:25,879 Speaker 7: four three B. Have you opened up that account and 432 00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:29,080 Speaker 7: started asking yourself critical questions about the mutual funds or 433 00:20:29,119 --> 00:20:31,720 Speaker 7: the securities in which you selected, right, So that's getting 434 00:20:31,720 --> 00:20:34,159 Speaker 7: into your money's business, like do you know why you 435 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:35,440 Speaker 7: chose that mutual fund? 436 00:20:35,720 --> 00:20:37,120 Speaker 8: Do you know why you want. 437 00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:41,280 Speaker 7: To invest in a specific index? Also, separately, as it 438 00:20:41,320 --> 00:20:43,960 Speaker 7: relates to a side business, as I've brought up earlier, 439 00:20:44,920 --> 00:20:47,040 Speaker 7: you need to make sure that you're understanding how much 440 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:49,720 Speaker 7: money your side hustle is bringing in and also how 441 00:20:49,840 --> 00:20:52,359 Speaker 7: much your side hustle or your side business is costing you. 442 00:20:52,840 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 7: And I think the applications work very well in helping 443 00:20:55,800 --> 00:20:59,000 Speaker 7: you understand the ways of which you can manage your finances. 444 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:00,560 Speaker 3: Every dollar as a worker. 445 00:21:00,800 --> 00:21:04,879 Speaker 8: What better way to say, yeah, you can't set up now. 446 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:10,000 Speaker 6: All y'all work in I'm gonna just follow up on 447 00:21:10,040 --> 00:21:13,040 Speaker 6: that real quick before we leave this segment. You have 448 00:21:13,200 --> 00:21:16,040 Speaker 6: mentioned something that was very important. You said that it's 449 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 6: important for people to know like what they're invested in, 450 00:21:18,880 --> 00:21:21,240 Speaker 6: and you mentioned the four one K, and that's something 451 00:21:21,280 --> 00:21:25,439 Speaker 6: that's extremely important because most people, the average person, that 452 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:29,440 Speaker 6: the majority of their investment portfolio is in retirement accounts 453 00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 6: and that most of their net worth is in a 454 00:21:33,640 --> 00:21:36,800 Speaker 6: retirement account or their home. That's the average Americans network 455 00:21:36,880 --> 00:21:38,720 Speaker 6: is tied up in those two things. But a lot 456 00:21:38,720 --> 00:21:42,280 Speaker 6: of people don't have any idea what they're invested in 457 00:21:42,400 --> 00:21:45,639 Speaker 6: their four one K. They don't even know, like you know, 458 00:21:45,680 --> 00:21:48,000 Speaker 6: what their options are. They just money just comes out 459 00:21:48,000 --> 00:21:50,080 Speaker 6: of their paycheck and that's all they know. Can you 460 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,840 Speaker 6: just give them a little like education on how to 461 00:21:52,920 --> 00:21:55,680 Speaker 6: actually go about investing properly in a retirement plan? 462 00:21:56,359 --> 00:21:59,840 Speaker 7: Absolutely first, though I want to I'm going to talk 463 00:21:59,840 --> 00:22:02,320 Speaker 7: of then in a second. One particular rule that I 464 00:22:02,359 --> 00:22:05,359 Speaker 7: think is of importance and relevance to this conversation that 465 00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 7: brings a little more structure and parameters in. 466 00:22:07,560 --> 00:22:09,080 Speaker 8: The ways of what you manage your money. 467 00:22:09,520 --> 00:22:11,560 Speaker 7: Is a rule that I follow that has helped me 468 00:22:11,720 --> 00:22:14,520 Speaker 7: get to the financial place that I'm in now, and 469 00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:18,359 Speaker 7: that is the fifty to thirty twenty rule. Fifty percent 470 00:22:18,359 --> 00:22:21,880 Speaker 7: of your money should absolutely go towards what your needs are. 471 00:22:22,160 --> 00:22:24,760 Speaker 7: So those are the bills that you have to pay, 472 00:22:24,920 --> 00:22:28,720 Speaker 7: making at least the minimum contribution on your credit card, 473 00:22:28,800 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 7: or the payment on your credit card, that's paying. 474 00:22:30,520 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 8: Your rent or your mortgage. 475 00:22:32,440 --> 00:22:36,600 Speaker 7: Thirty percent of your resources should go to whatever your 476 00:22:36,640 --> 00:22:37,280 Speaker 7: wants are. 477 00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:40,800 Speaker 8: So what are those ones? Is that a subscription you. 478 00:22:40,760 --> 00:22:42,720 Speaker 7: Know that you're paying for, Is that you want to 479 00:22:42,760 --> 00:22:45,280 Speaker 7: go turn up at brunch with your friends every other week? 480 00:22:45,440 --> 00:22:47,720 Speaker 7: And then the final twenty percent is exactly what you 481 00:22:47,840 --> 00:22:50,720 Speaker 7: just asked about with Shad, and that is your savings. 482 00:22:51,000 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 7: And when you hear savings, you automatically think of a 483 00:22:53,359 --> 00:22:56,320 Speaker 7: savings account. You should absolutely have one of those, but 484 00:22:56,400 --> 00:22:59,000 Speaker 7: it also relates to your. 485 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:00,520 Speaker 8: Retirement account as well. 486 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:03,080 Speaker 7: With your retirement account, you can look at your four 487 00:23:03,240 --> 00:23:05,760 Speaker 7: one K, your four O three B, your TSP which 488 00:23:05,800 --> 00:23:08,320 Speaker 7: is your third savings plan, and also your i R 489 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:12,359 Speaker 7: which is your individual retirement account as the vehicle, but 490 00:23:12,440 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 7: what fuels the vehicle are the mutual funds that you select. 491 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:17,919 Speaker 7: So there's two ways that you can look at that 492 00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:23,639 Speaker 7: you can look at perhaps investing in a fund that 493 00:23:23,760 --> 00:23:26,560 Speaker 7: tracks your age, right, so that specific. 494 00:23:26,080 --> 00:23:31,600 Speaker 8: Fund, a target date fund. 495 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:35,520 Speaker 7: You invest in that fund, and the fund managers as 496 00:23:35,560 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 7: you get older, your investments in that fund become more conservative. 497 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:41,760 Speaker 7: When you're younger, it's a little more aggressive, so the 498 00:23:41,840 --> 00:23:44,800 Speaker 7: fund ages with you. Perhaps when you're younger's investing in 499 00:23:44,840 --> 00:23:47,359 Speaker 7: equities and stops, but when you're older, they're investing in 500 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 7: more conservative assets like bonds. But you can also invest 501 00:23:51,080 --> 00:23:53,040 Speaker 7: in funds that follow major indices. 502 00:23:53,680 --> 00:23:58,720 Speaker 2: A whole lot of game, profess, we got one more set, 503 00:23:58,800 --> 00:23:59,520 Speaker 2: and you got some time. 504 00:23:59,400 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 3: For us a whole so I do. 505 00:24:01,119 --> 00:24:01,600 Speaker 6: Yeah, it is. 506 00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 9: You got here. 507 00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:06,760 Speaker 3: We're gonna call this questions for Keys. That's what we're 508 00:24:06,760 --> 00:24:07,520 Speaker 3: gonna call this segment. 509 00:24:07,640 --> 00:24:13,159 Speaker 10: Questions You're a little bit, A little bit so we 510 00:24:13,200 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 10: don't go with some scenarios and case studies, and I 511 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:18,919 Speaker 10: want you to point a pinpoint some important questions that 512 00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,800 Speaker 10: people should be asking if they're in those situations. 513 00:24:22,080 --> 00:24:23,920 Speaker 2: I'm gonna start with one that's near and dear to me, 514 00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 2: and that's understanding your student loans. If we're in this situation, 515 00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:32,720 Speaker 2: what are the questions we should be asking in the scenario. 516 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:37,320 Speaker 7: Okay, so that is near and dear to my heart 517 00:24:37,400 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 7: as well. I think it's important for you to know 518 00:24:40,359 --> 00:24:43,399 Speaker 7: whether you have a federal loan or whether you have 519 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:46,520 Speaker 7: a private loan, because the ways in which you pay 520 00:24:46,560 --> 00:24:49,199 Speaker 7: back those loans may have different parameters. Right, So, if 521 00:24:49,240 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 7: you have a federal loan, perhaps there are some assistance 522 00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:55,199 Speaker 7: available to you, like right now with headlining in the 523 00:24:55,240 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 7: news the public student loan forgiveness. If you have a 524 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:00,879 Speaker 7: federal loan, a specific for or a loan, you may 525 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,520 Speaker 7: be able to work at a nonprofit organization, You may 526 00:25:03,560 --> 00:25:05,520 Speaker 7: be able to work for the government, and if you 527 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:08,760 Speaker 7: make one hundred and twenty qualifying payments that could be 528 00:25:08,880 --> 00:25:09,880 Speaker 7: used towards. 529 00:25:09,520 --> 00:25:12,400 Speaker 8: Potentially getting your student loans forgiven. 530 00:25:12,920 --> 00:25:15,600 Speaker 7: One of the things you should also understand is what 531 00:25:15,680 --> 00:25:18,639 Speaker 7: type of repayment plans are available to you. 532 00:25:18,640 --> 00:25:20,159 Speaker 8: You can repay based off. 533 00:25:20,000 --> 00:25:22,240 Speaker 7: Of the income that you earn, but you could also 534 00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:26,639 Speaker 7: repay based off of other methodologies. Another question that I 535 00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:29,120 Speaker 7: would ask in regard to student loans or what are 536 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:31,520 Speaker 7: some ways that you can pay off your student loans early. 537 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:35,000 Speaker 7: I was able to pay off my student loans before 538 00:25:35,119 --> 00:25:37,879 Speaker 7: ten years and a big reason for that is I 539 00:25:37,920 --> 00:25:41,720 Speaker 7: started a nonprofit organization and a for profit business. Two 540 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,800 Speaker 7: years after I graduated from school and the money that 541 00:25:44,880 --> 00:25:49,080 Speaker 7: I earned, I specifically asked my loan service provider if 542 00:25:49,080 --> 00:25:53,359 Speaker 7: I can make those contributions towards the principle balance of 543 00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:57,040 Speaker 7: my student loan, and that helped me reduce my balance 544 00:25:57,119 --> 00:26:00,080 Speaker 7: in a more significant and sustainable way so that I 545 00:26:00,119 --> 00:26:01,560 Speaker 7: paid off a little bit earlier. 546 00:26:02,280 --> 00:26:04,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm glad that you brought up that point about 547 00:26:04,320 --> 00:26:06,639 Speaker 2: one hundred and twenty qualifying payments because if you have 548 00:26:06,640 --> 00:26:08,560 Speaker 2: been paying attention, that has now changed. 549 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:09,840 Speaker 3: The literature has changed on it. 550 00:26:10,560 --> 00:26:14,720 Speaker 2: The way that they now define qualifying payments has differentiated 551 00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:16,439 Speaker 2: from how it used to be. Whereas when people were 552 00:26:16,440 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 2: applying a couple of years ago, no one was getting accepted. Right, 553 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:22,520 Speaker 2: So now you got one D twelve, one hundred and 554 00:26:22,560 --> 00:26:25,560 Speaker 2: twenty qualified payments and plus ten years of service. Like 555 00:26:25,560 --> 00:26:27,439 Speaker 2: you said, depend on your profession, you can be forgiven. 556 00:26:27,560 --> 00:26:30,480 Speaker 2: So keep me so with that point. 557 00:26:31,080 --> 00:26:35,560 Speaker 6: Yeah, So another big one. What question should you ask 558 00:26:35,800 --> 00:26:37,679 Speaker 6: or what should you know when you are in the 559 00:26:37,720 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 6: process of buying a car? Extremely extremely important. 560 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:44,520 Speaker 7: The first question you should ask is what is your 561 00:26:44,520 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 7: credit score? I think that that is one hundred percent important. 562 00:26:48,520 --> 00:26:50,440 Speaker 7: And one of the things that I didn't know until 563 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:52,639 Speaker 7: I was in a market to buy a home and 564 00:26:52,720 --> 00:26:56,280 Speaker 7: also a new vehicle. Shout out to Asada, that's the 565 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:59,080 Speaker 7: name to my car rip. She died a couple of 566 00:26:59,080 --> 00:27:00,280 Speaker 7: weeks ago. 567 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:02,360 Speaker 3: But I've heard. 568 00:27:04,680 --> 00:27:07,439 Speaker 7: Is that there are different credit scores assigned to different 569 00:27:07,440 --> 00:27:10,439 Speaker 7: assets like your car and also lack, your home. And 570 00:27:10,480 --> 00:27:12,399 Speaker 7: so when I was going car shoping, just like when 571 00:27:12,440 --> 00:27:14,400 Speaker 7: I was going house shop, and I went and looked 572 00:27:14,440 --> 00:27:17,679 Speaker 7: for the specific fight folks score that was associated with 573 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:18,880 Speaker 7: that particular asset. 574 00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:20,840 Speaker 8: And one of the things that people. 575 00:27:20,560 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 7: Don't know is sometimes that score might be a little 576 00:27:23,160 --> 00:27:28,280 Speaker 7: higher than the score that you might see and experience equifacts, 577 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:30,439 Speaker 7: et cetera on just a general level. 578 00:27:30,840 --> 00:27:32,639 Speaker 8: So that would be one question I would ask. 579 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 7: Second question I would ask, is is this something that 580 00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:39,080 Speaker 7: you could really afford comfortably? So we talked about the 581 00:27:39,119 --> 00:27:42,000 Speaker 7: fifty to thirty twenty rule, right, so fifty percent is 582 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:46,679 Speaker 7: dedicated towards your your needs. And so are you buying 583 00:27:46,680 --> 00:27:49,560 Speaker 7: a car because you want to flex, right, and so 584 00:27:49,600 --> 00:27:51,560 Speaker 7: you're trying to buy at the top of your budget? 585 00:27:51,880 --> 00:27:54,640 Speaker 7: Are you buying a car that you absolutely can afford? 586 00:27:55,160 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 7: And a way which you can determine that is making 587 00:27:57,600 --> 00:28:00,040 Speaker 7: sure again that you get all in your money business 588 00:28:00,080 --> 00:28:02,760 Speaker 7: and you know the cash coming in and also the 589 00:28:02,800 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 7: cash going out. 590 00:28:04,680 --> 00:28:06,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'm saving the best for last. And we spoke 591 00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:10,399 Speaker 2: about kind of sharing with other people. So what are 592 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:12,680 Speaker 2: the questions you should be asking when you're sharing your 593 00:28:12,720 --> 00:28:17,120 Speaker 2: expenses with someone a spouse, a girlfriend, like when when 594 00:28:17,240 --> 00:28:19,760 Speaker 2: and when's the appropriate time to do it? What are 595 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:21,080 Speaker 2: the questions we should be asking? 596 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:25,520 Speaker 7: You know, that's something that I'm still exploring, you know, 597 00:28:25,680 --> 00:28:28,879 Speaker 7: out here, Sigle in these streets. When I have a 598 00:28:28,920 --> 00:28:33,280 Speaker 7: conversation with someone who I'm getting serious about, I think 599 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,560 Speaker 7: it's important to make sure that your financial philosophy is 600 00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:40,400 Speaker 7: as compatible as you are as people. Right, So perhaps 601 00:28:40,480 --> 00:28:44,280 Speaker 7: your values around money may differ from the person with 602 00:28:44,360 --> 00:28:46,840 Speaker 7: whom you're dating, and I think the ways in which 603 00:28:46,880 --> 00:28:49,360 Speaker 7: you can have that conversation a lot of it has 604 00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,840 Speaker 7: to do with what I think is again contextualizing conversations. 605 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:54,960 Speaker 7: If you want to move in together, you want to 606 00:28:54,960 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 7: have a conversation about how much you're earning, but you 607 00:28:57,400 --> 00:29:00,480 Speaker 7: also want to have a conversation about who's can distributing, 608 00:29:00,600 --> 00:29:02,200 Speaker 7: and then how much is it going to be fifty 609 00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:03,880 Speaker 7: to fifty, Is it going to be sixty forty? Is 610 00:29:03,880 --> 00:29:06,240 Speaker 7: it going to be a seventy thirty split. You want 611 00:29:06,280 --> 00:29:10,040 Speaker 7: to have a conversation about credit scores, you know, I 612 00:29:10,040 --> 00:29:12,760 Speaker 7: think that that's important. A lot of people leverage credit 613 00:29:13,040 --> 00:29:16,800 Speaker 7: in order to buy assets, right, But if one person 614 00:29:16,840 --> 00:29:19,520 Speaker 7: has an excellent credit score and the other person does not, 615 00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:23,080 Speaker 7: then that means perhaps you're only leveraging one person's credit 616 00:29:23,120 --> 00:29:25,080 Speaker 7: score over the other, unless. 617 00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:26,840 Speaker 8: Of course, you add them as an authorized user to 618 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:27,400 Speaker 8: your account. 619 00:29:27,960 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 7: I think the other thing is you want to have 620 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 7: conversations perhaps about some of the different things happening in 621 00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 7: the news, right, So instead of it seeming like a 622 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,360 Speaker 7: Q and A like an interview, perhaps you can look 623 00:29:38,360 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 7: at what's happening on some of these major network and 624 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:45,000 Speaker 7: when you have those conversations, sometimes the values come out. 625 00:29:45,400 --> 00:29:48,880 Speaker 6: So then you have it.

I'm gonna keep it real 724 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 12: since it is a real deal. 725 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:22,359 Speaker 3: All right. 726 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:26,480 Speaker 6: So first one that I want to start with. This 727 00:35:26,560 --> 00:35:29,800 Speaker 6: is probably the most common thing anybody is faced with. 728 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 6: Vacation trips just happens all the time. You know, whether 729 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:37,160 Speaker 6: it's college kids a spring break, but it's adults going 730 00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 6: on a destination wedding that they really can't afford but 731 00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:43,120 Speaker 6: they don't want to. You know, financial pair pressure is 732 00:35:43,160 --> 00:35:46,279 Speaker 6: a very real thing. So how do you feel about 733 00:35:46,600 --> 00:35:50,000 Speaker 6: vacations that you may not be able to afford? 734 00:35:50,440 --> 00:35:52,319 Speaker 12: I mean, here's the truth. I love vacations. I'm gonna 735 00:35:52,360 --> 00:35:54,480 Speaker 12: keep it real with you. You know I love them, 736 00:35:54,520 --> 00:35:59,040 Speaker 12: But I also love staycations. Now, staycations is when you 737 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:02,359 Speaker 12: know I may not have the financial means to go 738 00:36:02,480 --> 00:36:04,600 Speaker 12: out of state, to go out of the country because 739 00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:06,560 Speaker 12: I'm focused on my vision for my life. So if 740 00:36:06,600 --> 00:36:09,359 Speaker 12: your vision is to get out of debt, if you're 741 00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:12,040 Speaker 12: married watching this and your vision is to build your 742 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,359 Speaker 12: first home, or maybe you're single and you're like, yo, 743 00:36:14,440 --> 00:36:16,719 Speaker 12: my vision is to pay off my student loans. Well, 744 00:36:16,800 --> 00:36:18,960 Speaker 12: you may need to step back and look at your 745 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,200 Speaker 12: budget and see, all right, cool, can I go on 746 00:36:21,280 --> 00:36:24,320 Speaker 12: this vacation or should I stay on this staycation? Maybe 747 00:36:24,360 --> 00:36:27,319 Speaker 12: just go to the hotel downtown and save me three 748 00:36:27,360 --> 00:36:28,919 Speaker 12: grand and put that towards my debt. 749 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:32,040 Speaker 4: So you got to really ask yourself can you afford it? 750 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:32,480 Speaker 3: Now? 751 00:36:32,800 --> 00:36:34,480 Speaker 12: If you were on my show and you telling me 752 00:36:34,520 --> 00:36:36,200 Speaker 12: you're drowning in a bunch of debt, I'm gonna tell 753 00:36:36,200 --> 00:36:38,520 Speaker 12: you now you really can't afford to do nothing, No dates, 754 00:36:38,600 --> 00:36:41,960 Speaker 12: no ice cream shops, pretty much nothing. 755 00:36:42,000 --> 00:36:42,160 Speaker 3: Man. 756 00:36:42,160 --> 00:36:44,640 Speaker 12: But you know, right now, the key thing is what's 757 00:36:44,680 --> 00:36:47,040 Speaker 12: your vision and make sure that everything that you're doing 758 00:36:47,160 --> 00:36:49,799 Speaker 12: is aligning to your vision and helping you get there 759 00:36:49,840 --> 00:36:52,439 Speaker 12: and not slowing you down or preventing you from getting there. 760 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:53,279 Speaker 3: Yeah. 761 00:36:53,320 --> 00:36:56,480 Speaker 2: I'm glad we're having this segment with Google pay because 762 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:59,680 Speaker 2: obviously that's going to help everybody see the financial situations 763 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 2: a lot clearer. 764 00:37:00,680 --> 00:37:02,239 Speaker 3: And I know you're a death free guy. You don't 765 00:37:02,280 --> 00:37:05,000 Speaker 3: like living death free, you like living death free. You 766 00:37:05,040 --> 00:37:07,759 Speaker 3: don't like having debt as part as the portfolio. 767 00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:11,000 Speaker 2: So this is another key one, right, Like vacations are important, 768 00:37:11,040 --> 00:37:15,919 Speaker 2: but deciding when to buy or can I afford to buy? 769 00:37:16,160 --> 00:37:19,920 Speaker 3: Versus am I going to have to rent? You know what? 770 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:21,759 Speaker 12: Man, I think one thing that we really got to 771 00:37:21,800 --> 00:37:24,160 Speaker 12: have a conversation about, especially within our culture, is that 772 00:37:24,200 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 12: there's nothing wrong with renting. You know, I think buying 773 00:37:27,200 --> 00:37:30,640 Speaker 12: is is very important because ownership is very important. I 774 00:37:30,640 --> 00:37:34,000 Speaker 12: want to be clear up front, owning your home, ownership 775 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:36,760 Speaker 12: in general, owning your business, et cetera, is very very important. 776 00:37:36,920 --> 00:37:39,120 Speaker 12: But you want to make sure that you're not house poor. 777 00:37:39,440 --> 00:37:40,880 Speaker 12: And what I mean is you go out there and 778 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:44,399 Speaker 12: you get this great mortgage, this huge mortgage, this beautiful home, 779 00:37:44,680 --> 00:37:46,640 Speaker 12: but you can't afford to put a bed in your bedroom, 780 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:48,520 Speaker 12: You can't afford to put a couch inside of the 781 00:37:48,520 --> 00:37:50,719 Speaker 12: living room, you can't afford to cut the grass. You 782 00:37:50,719 --> 00:37:53,320 Speaker 12: are scared to cut on the water because you're already 783 00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:55,600 Speaker 12: maxed out. And so what I tell people is again, 784 00:37:55,640 --> 00:37:57,480 Speaker 12: step back and look at your budget. And what I 785 00:37:57,480 --> 00:38:00,000 Speaker 12: teach people is make sure that your mortgage is less 786 00:38:00,080 --> 00:38:03,359 Speaker 12: than twenty five percent of your take home pay. Now 787 00:38:03,360 --> 00:38:05,000 Speaker 12: if you're going to stretch it a little bit past that. 788 00:38:05,000 --> 00:38:07,880 Speaker 4: That's cool. I'm with it, but ballpark even with me. 789 00:38:07,960 --> 00:38:10,719 Speaker 12: I'm right at about twenty two percent with my personal mortgage, 790 00:38:10,800 --> 00:38:12,759 Speaker 12: but that is the only debt that I actually rock with. 791 00:38:12,880 --> 00:38:15,759 Speaker 12: But there's nothing one with renting. Rent until you are 792 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:17,440 Speaker 12: ready to purchase a home. 793 00:38:17,719 --> 00:38:17,880 Speaker 3: You know. 794 00:38:17,920 --> 00:38:19,600 Speaker 12: One of the key things I'll tell people is how 795 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,759 Speaker 12: do you know you're ready to purchase a home? Key 796 00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:23,520 Speaker 12: thing is do you have twenty percent to put down 797 00:38:23,520 --> 00:38:25,279 Speaker 12: on your home? You guys know this because if we 798 00:38:25,280 --> 00:38:27,560 Speaker 12: can put down twenty percent, we'll avoid a p and 799 00:38:27,600 --> 00:38:30,440 Speaker 12: mind that's a private mortgage insurance. So if we avoid 800 00:38:30,440 --> 00:38:32,799 Speaker 12: that p and mind, that can save you anywhere from 801 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:35,000 Speaker 12: one hundred up to five hundred dollars if you're going 802 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:36,160 Speaker 12: through the FAHA route. 803 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 4: So that's one key. Number Two key is you know, 804 00:38:40,360 --> 00:38:41,759 Speaker 4: do you have enough money. 805 00:38:41,520 --> 00:38:43,520 Speaker 12: To at least get you into the home and you 806 00:38:43,600 --> 00:38:46,479 Speaker 12: have six months on reserve to where if you lost 807 00:38:46,480 --> 00:38:49,960 Speaker 12: your job during the transition, if the pandemic hit again, 808 00:38:50,200 --> 00:38:51,799 Speaker 12: at least you have something to get you and your 809 00:38:51,800 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 12: family through. So there's nothing wrong with renting, y'all. To 810 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:56,440 Speaker 12: be real with you, I've been making my kind of 811 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,319 Speaker 12: money now for about six seven, about seven years. I 812 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:01,879 Speaker 12: just for purchased my first home about four years ago 813 00:39:02,400 --> 00:39:03,759 Speaker 12: because I wanted to make sure when I got in 814 00:39:03,800 --> 00:39:06,239 Speaker 12: my home, I had the bread and I can afford it, 815 00:39:06,280 --> 00:39:08,239 Speaker 12: and I was at peace every time I walked into 816 00:39:08,239 --> 00:39:08,600 Speaker 12: my home. 817 00:39:09,280 --> 00:39:10,919 Speaker 6: So let me just follow up on that real quick. 818 00:39:11,000 --> 00:39:13,120 Speaker 6: So you said you said twenty percent. 819 00:39:12,920 --> 00:39:16,040 Speaker 4: Right, twenty five percent of your take home pay, so 820 00:39:16,440 --> 00:39:16,839 Speaker 4: all right? 821 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:20,120 Speaker 6: So, and take on pay is extremely important because you 822 00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 6: could be getting paid ten thousand dollars a month, but 823 00:39:23,080 --> 00:39:27,200 Speaker 6: your take on pay is seven thousand, so maybe. 824 00:39:27,000 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah. 825 00:39:28,000 --> 00:39:30,279 Speaker 12: And they keep in mind too, the banks, y'all know, 826 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:31,640 Speaker 12: if you use worked for the bank man, they're going 827 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,200 Speaker 12: to approve you off of your gross income. They're not 828 00:39:34,239 --> 00:39:36,359 Speaker 12: going to approve you off of your net income. So 829 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:38,960 Speaker 12: that's why it's very important for you. Before you get 830 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 12: your pre approval, you sit down, you look at your 831 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:44,160 Speaker 12: budget and say, no, what I can afford three thousand 832 00:39:44,200 --> 00:39:46,120 Speaker 12: dollars a money.

I just 840 00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:03,719 Speaker 6: want to take one minute to just let that soak 841 00:40:03,719 --> 00:40:05,880 Speaker 6: in because I shot to our part of MBO mortgage. 842 00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,200 Speaker 6: He always talked about that old time. Don't be house 843 00:40:08,280 --> 00:40:10,799 Speaker 6: rich in cash poor, and a lot of people are 844 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:14,239 Speaker 6: over extending themselves for their dream home but they really 845 00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:16,720 Speaker 6: can't afford it. And what you said is extremely important. 846 00:40:16,719 --> 00:40:18,600 Speaker 6: You get a mortgage based off of your gross, not 847 00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:20,480 Speaker 6: your net. But you don't live off of growth, you 848 00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:22,600 Speaker 6: live off of net. So it's up to you to 849 00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:26,680 Speaker 6: actually have enough financial responsibility, enough education to understand that 850 00:40:26,719 --> 00:40:29,120 Speaker 6: even though you're getting a mortgage for one hundred thousand, 851 00:40:29,400 --> 00:40:32,000 Speaker 6: if you're only taking home sixty five thousand, you got 852 00:40:32,000 --> 00:40:34,520 Speaker 6: to work off the sixty five thousand, not one hundred thousand. 853 00:40:34,560 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 3: All that's a big fan. 854 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:37,480 Speaker 4: Well, that's big facts, man, big facts. 855 00:40:38,080 --> 00:40:40,640 Speaker 2: And I want to go to one because this one's personal. 856 00:40:41,280 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 2: It's there and there I actually went through it. Can 857 00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:46,000 Speaker 2: I afford a new car? 858 00:40:46,080 --> 00:40:46,399 Speaker 3: Right now? 859 00:40:46,440 --> 00:40:48,719 Speaker 2: I'll tell you and Rashade was there when I did it. 860 00:40:49,520 --> 00:40:51,400 Speaker 2: I said, how much of the payment that kill me? 861 00:40:51,920 --> 00:40:54,319 Speaker 2: Five hundred and seventy four dollars a month?

So if I can I afford this 864 00:41:04,040 --> 00:41:06,000 Speaker 3: right now, a new car, that's a scenario. 865 00:41:06,440 --> 00:41:09,279 Speaker 12: Hey man, Now this is where people may hate me 866 00:41:09,280 --> 00:41:13,640 Speaker 12: when I say this. Listen, if you have to finance it, 867 00:41:13,800 --> 00:41:17,080 Speaker 12: you can't afford the car. My own personal opinion is 868 00:41:17,120 --> 00:41:18,920 Speaker 12: if I can pay cash for it, I got a 869 00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:21,759 Speaker 12: fully funded emergency fund. I can afford whatever I can 870 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:25,839 Speaker 12: pay cash for. You know, I just purchased my dream car. 871 00:41:26,360 --> 00:41:29,480 Speaker 12: Maybe about what's February February sixteenth is when I purchased 872 00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:31,960 Speaker 12: my my dream car. The cars is a depreciating asset 873 00:41:32,000 --> 00:41:34,520 Speaker 12: in my in my personal opinion, and so if I 874 00:41:34,600 --> 00:41:37,359 Speaker 12: have to finance it, if I have to finance it, 875 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:38,799 Speaker 12: then I can't afford the car. 876 00:41:39,360 --> 00:41:40,640 Speaker 4: So I went financial freedom. 877 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 2: That was the wise word. They said, if you can't 878 00:41:42,520 --> 00:41:43,839 Speaker 2: buy it twice, you can't afford it. 879 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:45,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, jay Z is the man. 880 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 6: So you don't believe at least in cars at all. 881 00:41:49,360 --> 00:41:51,600 Speaker 12: No, I don't, man, And I know on the business side. 882 00:41:51,640 --> 00:41:53,560 Speaker 12: I know Professor Keys would probably go off on me, 883 00:41:54,040 --> 00:41:56,920 Speaker 12: you know, but you know, I understand. I understand the 884 00:41:56,920 --> 00:42:00,000 Speaker 12: business method, and I don't knock people who who belie 885 00:42:00,040 --> 00:42:03,319 Speaker 12: even that method. That's totally totally cool, you know. But 886 00:42:03,400 --> 00:42:05,560 Speaker 12: for me, I just believe in ownership. I believe in 887 00:42:05,640 --> 00:42:08,279 Speaker 12: owning everything that I have. I don't do any debt. 888 00:42:08,320 --> 00:42:10,680 Speaker 12: I pay cash for it that you have it? 889 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:12,520 Speaker 6: All right, let's move on. 890 00:42:12,800 --> 00:42:15,319 Speaker 3: Yeah, man, And this one I haven't experienced in about 891 00:42:15,320 --> 00:42:18,680 Speaker 3: ten years because I've been a married man.

And that's something that This is 917 00:43:29,600 --> 00:43:34,480 Speaker 6: something that's extremely important because etiquette is something that I 918 00:43:34,600 --> 00:43:38,719 Speaker 6: realize not everybody has because not everybody is taught etiquette, 919 00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 6: and unfortunately a lot of people just don't know. So 920 00:43:44,080 --> 00:43:45,600 Speaker 6: when you don't know what to do, you do what 921 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:50,960 Speaker 6: you know. So this is a big issue. It's a 922 00:43:51,000 --> 00:43:56,240 Speaker 6: big issue. So okay, let me ask you this question. 923 00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:59,880 Speaker 6: If you can't afford a wedding gift or in a 924 00:44:00,000 --> 00:44:03,760 Speaker 6: appropriate wedding gift, should you go to the wedding? Should 925 00:44:04,400 --> 00:44:07,480 Speaker 6: give a bogus gift? And I'll give it to you 926 00:44:07,560 --> 00:44:11,040 Speaker 6: later when I have it. What's the etiquette for that man? 927 00:44:11,160 --> 00:44:14,800 Speaker 4: Go to the wedding, you know, really you know what 928 00:44:14,880 --> 00:44:15,239 Speaker 4: I'm saying. 929 00:44:15,239 --> 00:44:16,799 Speaker 12: I mean my thing is, go to the wedding if 930 00:44:16,840 --> 00:44:19,160 Speaker 12: you have the right motives.

Now give them look 936 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:32,480 Speaker 12: a bit of something something, give them a card. Don't 937 00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:34,920 Speaker 12: go there, you know, empty empty handed.

You know, 963 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:40,440 Speaker 12: I think you should be focused on, you know, getting 964 00:45:40,440 --> 00:45:42,399 Speaker 12: me my money back or giving I don't really loan 965 00:45:42,400 --> 00:45:42,799 Speaker 12: out money. 966 00:45:42,880 --> 00:45:45,080 Speaker 4: If I give you money, I'm giving it to you. 967 00:45:45,360 --> 00:45:47,239 Speaker 12: I don't expect you to pay it back to me, 968 00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:50,120 Speaker 12: because I just believe that just messages up friendships and relationships. 969 00:45:50,640 --> 00:45:52,640 Speaker 12: So if I can't afford to give you the money, 970 00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:55,600 Speaker 12: I'm not going to give you the money. But if 971 00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:58,239 Speaker 12: you did agree to pay someone back, here's what I 972 00:45:58,239 --> 00:45:58,719 Speaker 12: want you to do. 973 00:45:59,200 --> 00:46:00,440 Speaker 4: That's your number one assignment. 974 00:46:00,480 --> 00:46:02,520 Speaker 12: Don't go by nothing to eat, don't be going out 975 00:46:02,520 --> 00:46:05,359 Speaker 12: on dates, don't be spending any extra money nowhere else. 976 00:46:05,600 --> 00:46:08,200 Speaker 12: If your friend loans you money, if your family loaned 977 00:46:08,239 --> 00:46:10,960 Speaker 12: you money, you know you agreed to pay them back 978 00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:14,359 Speaker 12: by X date. You'll try to pay them back before then. 979 00:46:14,800 --> 00:46:17,040 Speaker 12: If you cannot, then you need to have a clear 980 00:46:17,080 --> 00:46:19,919 Speaker 12: conversation with them, be like, Yo, I'm struggling. Here's where 981 00:46:19,920 --> 00:46:21,879 Speaker 12: I'm at. I just want to over and I want 982 00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:24,120 Speaker 12: to over communicate and be honest with you and just 983 00:46:24,200 --> 00:46:26,080 Speaker 12: let you know, Hey, this is where I'm at. 984 00:46:26,440 --> 00:46:27,560 Speaker 3: I hope everyone's listening. 985 00:46:27,680 --> 00:46:29,719 Speaker 2: I'm sure somebody has a friend right now that is 986 00:46:30,040 --> 00:46:32,759 Speaker 2: like I'm that person or this person owes. 987 00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:37,600 Speaker 6: Me let me ask you this. As far as the 988 00:46:37,719 --> 00:46:41,640 Speaker 6: relationship conversation is concerned, I believe forty eight percent of 989 00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:45,920 Speaker 6: marriages that end in divorce are because of financial reasons. 990 00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:49,880 Speaker 6: It's like the number one cause divorce. A lot of 991 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:52,680 Speaker 6: these issues are because the conversation was never brought up 992 00:46:52,680 --> 00:46:55,759 Speaker 6: at the beginning. So there's a lot of issues that 993 00:46:55,880 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 6: people have in relationships. Like some people want to have 994 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:02,279 Speaker 6: joint bank account, some people are strung against that. Some 995 00:47:02,320 --> 00:47:05,240 Speaker 6: people believe that you should only pay cash for things 996 00:47:05,239 --> 00:47:07,680 Speaker 6: and have no debt. Some people believe that you can 997 00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:10,840 Speaker 6: have that and just use your credit card. So a 998 00:47:10,880 --> 00:47:14,320 Speaker 6: lot of issues come in relationships, but nobody ever really 999 00:47:14,320 --> 00:47:16,480 Speaker 6: talks about it until they actually get into it. So 1000 00:47:17,160 --> 00:47:20,359 Speaker 6: what are some ways how do you start the conversation 1001 00:47:21,120 --> 00:47:24,400 Speaker 6: about finances when you're courting somebody, when you're in a relationship, 1002 00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,840 Speaker 6: At what stage should you start and how do you start? 1003 00:47:27,200 --> 00:47:28,839 Speaker 12: You're not so funny, man, I just did a show 1004 00:47:28,880 --> 00:47:33,440 Speaker 12: on that, bro and I think the opinion is not popular, 1005 00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:36,440 Speaker 12: But I believe before you get into any committed relationship, 1006 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:40,280 Speaker 12: you should have a serious conversation about finances. Because you're right, 1007 00:47:40,440 --> 00:47:44,560 Speaker 12: nearly forty eight percent of them marriages in because of money. 1008 00:47:44,640 --> 00:47:46,759 Speaker 12: Now check this out. It's not because of the lack 1009 00:47:46,840 --> 00:47:50,280 Speaker 12: of money, it's because of the thought process behind the money. 1010 00:47:50,640 --> 00:47:53,160 Speaker 12: And so it's very important to know upfront, do we 1011 00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:56,800 Speaker 12: align with the same vision when it comes to our money. 1012 00:47:56,880 --> 00:47:59,560 Speaker 12: You know, are we on the let's avoid debt track 1013 00:47:59,680 --> 00:48:01,799 Speaker 12: or are on the I want to just use other 1014 00:48:01,800 --> 00:48:05,719 Speaker 12: people's money to build wealth. Now, whatever side you on, 1015 00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:08,040 Speaker 12: just make sure that you are aligned on the same 1016 00:48:08,120 --> 00:48:10,080 Speaker 12: side when it comes to finances, when it comes to 1017 00:48:10,160 --> 00:48:12,719 Speaker 12: raising your children, when it comes to your spiritual walk, 1018 00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:14,360 Speaker 12: you know, you just got to really just have the 1019 00:48:14,520 --> 00:48:18,680 Speaker 12: healthy conversation. So for me, I suggest, if you're dating 1020 00:48:18,800 --> 00:48:22,279 Speaker 12: with the intent of settling into a committed relationship that 1021 00:48:22,360 --> 00:48:25,120 Speaker 12: ultimately leads to a marriage, before you get into a 1022 00:48:25,120 --> 00:48:28,400 Speaker 12: committed relationship, have the conversation, and the conversation is simple. 1023 00:48:28,440 --> 00:48:30,600 Speaker 12: You know, can we just talk about your vision? What's 1024 00:48:30,600 --> 00:48:33,440 Speaker 12: your vision for your life, what's your vision for your family, 1025 00:48:33,719 --> 00:48:35,759 Speaker 12: what's your vision for your finances? What are some of 1026 00:48:35,800 --> 00:48:37,440 Speaker 12: your goals. Do you want to build a home, do 1027 00:48:37,480 --> 00:48:39,440 Speaker 12: you want to have multiple homes? Do you want to 1028 00:48:39,440 --> 00:48:41,319 Speaker 12: pay for your kids college? I mean, do you want 1029 00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:43,640 Speaker 12: to leave a legacy? And I think that's the easy 1030 00:48:43,680 --> 00:48:46,600 Speaker 12: way to have the conversation without going into I know, 1031 00:48:46,600 --> 00:48:48,719 Speaker 12: Professor Key said that talk about the credit score and 1032 00:48:48,719 --> 00:48:50,600 Speaker 12: stuff like that. For me, I don't care about your 1033 00:48:50,600 --> 00:48:52,600 Speaker 12: credit score. I don't know what's up here in your mind? 1034 00:48:52,760 --> 00:48:57,239 Speaker 12: What exactly do you do? And then honestly, where do 1035 00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:59,759 Speaker 12: you spend your money? You know, I would definitely ask 1036 00:48:59,760 --> 00:49:01,799 Speaker 12: some do you have the Google pay app? Can we 1037 00:49:01,840 --> 00:49:05,400 Speaker 12: look and see where do you spend your money? You know, 1038 00:49:06,800 --> 00:49:08,759 Speaker 12: you know, But at the same time, I mean, I 1039 00:49:08,840 --> 00:49:11,120 Speaker 12: just think the conversation has to happen because what you 1040 00:49:11,160 --> 00:49:14,160 Speaker 12: don't want to do is get married. Then you have 1041 00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:16,960 Speaker 12: the conversation, and then you find out that you're lin 1042 00:49:17,000 --> 00:49:19,040 Speaker 12: aligned and going in the same direction. 1043 00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:22,040 Speaker 4: That's where the start of divorce starts happening. 1044 00:49:22,120 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 12: So before you get committed, before you fall in love, 1045 00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:27,960 Speaker 12: before you all get deep into this thing, have the 1046 00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:30,640 Speaker 12: important conversations. And one of that is and where do 1047 00:49:30,680 --> 00:49:32,200 Speaker 12: we staying when it comes to our finances? 1048 00:49:32,560 --> 00:49:35,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, this sounds like a conversation that we're happening at 1049 00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:37,919 Speaker 2: a nice restaurant, you know, in top of the line 1050 00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:39,720 Speaker 2: of food, maybe some red wines on the table. 1051 00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:42,640 Speaker 3: My question is when we come to money, man, is 1052 00:49:43,239 --> 00:49:49,600 Speaker 3: what's the out of care for?

But if something 1063 00:50:12,000 --> 00:50:14,840 Speaker 12: goes down and you're uncomfortable, leave your half, call me 1064 00:50:14,960 --> 00:50:16,600 Speaker 12: and I'll come get you.

Yeah, you tip your driver? 1102 00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:55,439 Speaker 6: Do you tip your the guy that takes your your 1103 00:51:56,239 --> 00:51:58,480 Speaker 6: trash out?

At Christmas time, I tip the bus line. 1110 00:52:12,920 --> 00:52:16,240 Speaker 6: So so yeah, what's the etiquette on tipping? 1111 00:52:16,520 --> 00:52:16,680 Speaker 3: Man? 1112 00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:19,000 Speaker 12: Tipping is very important.

I'm very big on being a giver. 1114 00:52:22,360 --> 00:52:24,240 Speaker 12: I believe it's best to give than it is to receive. 1115 00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:28,160 Speaker 12: So I tip.

And then 1145 00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:45,200 Speaker 3: we're just going to ask your next one. We're gonna 1146 00:53:45,200 --> 00:53:47,960 Speaker 3: start the lightning around. Are you ready, my man? All right? 1147 00:53:48,480 --> 00:53:49,920 Speaker 3: All right, here we go. All right, here's the first 1148 00:53:50,000 --> 00:53:50,759 Speaker 3: question I'm throwing at you. 1149 00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:53,640 Speaker 2: All right, what are some options to start creating generational wealth? 1150 00:53:54,680 --> 00:53:54,879 Speaker 3: Man? 1151 00:53:54,920 --> 00:53:55,400 Speaker 4: Ownership? 1152 00:53:55,480 --> 00:53:56,960 Speaker 12: I mean, for me, it's going to be eliminating that. 1153 00:53:57,160 --> 00:53:59,200 Speaker 12: Get you a fully funded emergency funds. That way you're 1154 00:53:59,239 --> 00:54:01,680 Speaker 12: not going back into that and start taking advantage of 1155 00:54:01,719 --> 00:54:04,840 Speaker 12: like your fro one cage, your your wroth I rays, 1156 00:54:04,880 --> 00:54:09,040 Speaker 12: maxing out your some other growth mutual funds, and getting 1157 00:54:09,040 --> 00:54:11,560 Speaker 12: into some land. You know, one of my mentors said, hey, 1158 00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:15,200 Speaker 12: it's not just about actually buying property, it's also about 1159 00:54:15,200 --> 00:54:18,080 Speaker 12: buying land. So if you're looking for wealth and true 1160 00:54:18,080 --> 00:54:21,640 Speaker 12: wealth and long lasting wealth, purchase some land because you know, hey, 1161 00:54:21,680 --> 00:54:23,760 Speaker 12: we can't make no more land. We can build buildings. 1162 00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:25,680 Speaker 12: So if you get that land, let it sit, pass 1163 00:54:25,719 --> 00:54:28,160 Speaker 12: it down to your kids. Now you're talking about true 1164 00:54:28,200 --> 00:54:30,440 Speaker 12: generational wealth. So the key thing for me when it 1165 00:54:30,560 --> 00:54:33,879 Speaker 12: come to building wealth, it's about eliminating that, making sure 1166 00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:35,759 Speaker 12: you have a solid plan to fall on a case 1167 00:54:35,800 --> 00:54:37,600 Speaker 12: of emergency and start ownership. 1168 00:54:38,000 --> 00:54:41,560 Speaker 6: Let me ask you this, how much money is wealth? 1169 00:54:41,640 --> 00:54:44,960 Speaker 6: This is an interesting conversation because everybody gauges wealth differently, 1170 00:54:45,000 --> 00:54:47,640 Speaker 6: but you know, we all have aspirations of being wealthy, 1171 00:54:47,840 --> 00:54:50,080 Speaker 6: a lot of us so, but it's kind of hard 1172 00:54:50,120 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 6: to do that if you don't have a measure in stake. 1173 00:54:52,080 --> 00:54:52,680 Speaker 6: What is wealth? 1174 00:54:53,040 --> 00:54:55,560 Speaker 4: What is what is wealthy man. Wealth to me is 1175 00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:56,960 Speaker 4: way more than just money. 1176 00:54:57,000 --> 00:54:57,120 Speaker 2: Man. 1177 00:54:57,200 --> 00:54:58,839 Speaker 12: I'm gonna keep it above with you actual, I'm gonna 1178 00:54:58,880 --> 00:55:00,640 Speaker 12: keep it real since it is, it's a real deal. 1179 00:55:00,880 --> 00:55:02,800 Speaker 12: Wealth to me is about options. Wealth to me is 1180 00:55:02,800 --> 00:55:05,960 Speaker 12: about peace. Wealth to me is about education. Wealth to 1181 00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:09,400 Speaker 12: me is about influence. But since we are talking about 1182 00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:13,200 Speaker 12: money today, a simple basic understanding when it comes to wealth, 1183 00:55:13,480 --> 00:55:17,280 Speaker 12: how long can you last without physically working or physically 1184 00:55:17,360 --> 00:55:20,480 Speaker 12: having to make money. So, if you have enough money 1185 00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:22,800 Speaker 12: in your savings account to last a year, you're wealthy 1186 00:55:22,800 --> 00:55:26,640 Speaker 12: for one year from a financial perspective. But if you 1187 00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:29,200 Speaker 12: have the education, if you mind your business, which is 1188 00:55:29,239 --> 00:55:31,239 Speaker 12: our mind, you know, and your mind is your number 1189 00:55:31,280 --> 00:55:34,040 Speaker 12: one asset your business, if you continue to grow this, 1190 00:55:34,320 --> 00:55:36,960 Speaker 12: you'll be wealthy forever. If you continue to get the education, 1191 00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:39,400 Speaker 12: if you continue to rock out with Google pay, if 1192 00:55:39,440 --> 00:55:41,239 Speaker 12: you continue to watch earn your leisure and then come 1193 00:55:41,320 --> 00:55:43,640 Speaker 12: check me out at the table, you know, we will 1194 00:55:43,680 --> 00:55:46,560 Speaker 12: help you get the education and the information to build 1195 00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:49,160 Speaker 12: long lasting wealth. And I just want people to hear 1196 00:55:49,160 --> 00:55:52,279 Speaker 12: me when I say this, wealth from a financial perspective is, Hey, 1197 00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:56,440 Speaker 12: how long can you live without physically working and doing 1198 00:55:56,480 --> 00:55:59,959 Speaker 12: anything to make money. But when you really look at it, well, 1199 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:03,880 Speaker 12: for generational wealth is what are you passing down to 1200 00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:06,799 Speaker 12: your kids, not just financially. You can give them a 1201 00:56:06,800 --> 00:56:09,200 Speaker 12: million dollars, but if you don't give them the education 1202 00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:12,240 Speaker 12: and the information and the opportunity to take that million 1203 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:15,280 Speaker 12: and flip it to two three million, you're not passing 1204 00:56:15,320 --> 00:56:18,040 Speaker 12: them down wealth. You're just giving them opportunities that more 1205 00:56:18,080 --> 00:56:20,319 Speaker 12: than likely they will lose it. When there was a 1206 00:56:20,320 --> 00:56:22,560 Speaker 12: study that came out said the first generation makes it, 1207 00:56:22,920 --> 00:56:26,399 Speaker 12: the second generation maintains it, then the third generation they 1208 00:56:26,440 --> 00:56:28,680 Speaker 12: lose it. And why do they lose It's because they 1209 00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:30,840 Speaker 12: didn't have the education. They didn't have the wealth of 1210 00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:34,200 Speaker 12: knowledge to maintain it. So wealth is not just about money, 1211 00:56:34,360 --> 00:56:36,160 Speaker 12: It's all just about the education and the information. 1212 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:38,080 Speaker 3: I used that quote a lot. 1213 00:56:38,120 --> 00:56:40,880 Speaker 2: The first generation works hard, the second generation gets to 1214 00:56:40,880 --> 00:56:44,319 Speaker 2: see the hard work. They add education plus experience to it. 1215 00:56:44,320 --> 00:56:46,799 Speaker 2: The third generation never just see the hard work, so 1216 00:56:46,840 --> 00:56:48,680 Speaker 2: they end up spandering money. And I'm glad you brought 1217 00:56:48,719 --> 00:56:50,640 Speaker 2: up the word education because my next question is coming 1218 00:56:50,960 --> 00:56:52,240 Speaker 2: directly from that topic. 1219 00:56:52,840 --> 00:56:56,359 Speaker 3: Why isn't financial literacy taught in schools? What's your thoughts? Man? 1220 00:56:56,400 --> 00:57:01,840 Speaker 12: You know, I'm frustrated about that because it's funny. Education 1221 00:57:01,960 --> 00:57:04,640 Speaker 12: is teachers how to read, write, process information, and add 1222 00:57:05,040 --> 00:57:07,239 Speaker 12: they're giving us this information so we can go off 1223 00:57:07,239 --> 00:57:09,040 Speaker 12: to school, get an education, rack. 1224 00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:10,919 Speaker 4: Up in debt so we can get a job. 1225 00:57:11,120 --> 00:57:14,400 Speaker 12: So education from a school perspective is to get a job, 1226 00:57:14,560 --> 00:57:18,160 Speaker 12: and a job and or business produces what income. So 1227 00:57:18,400 --> 00:57:21,840 Speaker 12: it bothers me that our schools are not teaching us 1228 00:57:21,960 --> 00:57:24,680 Speaker 12: how to be good stewards of the income that you're 1229 00:57:24,680 --> 00:57:27,440 Speaker 12: giving us the education to get. But we got to 1230 00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:29,760 Speaker 12: start changing that around. We got to start doing more 1231 00:57:29,800 --> 00:57:32,680 Speaker 12: stuff like this with like what Google pay is doing today, 1232 00:57:32,840 --> 00:57:34,560 Speaker 12: and start bringing education to the table. 1233 00:57:35,320 --> 00:57:37,000 Speaker 6: Let me gonna ask you this as far as for 1234 00:57:37,120 --> 00:57:41,440 Speaker 6: parents allow I never had an allowance growing up. So 1235 00:57:41,520 --> 00:57:43,040 Speaker 6: how do you feel about allowance? How do you feel 1236 00:57:43,040 --> 00:57:46,960 Speaker 6: about chores? Should should children get paid for things that 1237 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:49,520 Speaker 6: they should already be doing, like making up their bed? 1238 00:57:51,560 --> 00:57:55,320 Speaker 6: Is allowance a hindrance? Is chores good? 1239 00:57:55,360 --> 00:57:55,560 Speaker 3: Bad? 1240 00:57:55,600 --> 00:57:56,760 Speaker 6: What's your thoughts on that? 1241 00:57:57,760 --> 00:57:59,600 Speaker 12: You know, bro Man, I grew up in a very strong, 1242 00:57:59,720 --> 00:58:02,640 Speaker 12: strong home man in a very spiritual home right, and 1243 00:58:02,680 --> 00:58:05,080 Speaker 12: my mom and dad said, I remember going over to 1244 00:58:05,120 --> 00:58:08,000 Speaker 12: my best friend's house and his Dad paid them twenty 1245 00:58:08,040 --> 00:58:10,800 Speaker 12: dollars for keeping his room cleaned all week. So I 1246 00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:13,400 Speaker 12: came home and I said, Mom and Dad, where's my 1247 00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:15,720 Speaker 12: twenty dollars? My mom and dad said for what it 1248 00:58:15,800 --> 00:58:17,840 Speaker 12: was like because I made up my bed all week, 1249 00:58:18,160 --> 00:58:20,160 Speaker 12: and said, I'm not going to pay you for what 1250 00:58:20,200 --> 00:58:22,280 Speaker 12: you need to be doing and what you should be doing. 1251 00:58:23,200 --> 00:58:25,360 Speaker 12: But what I will do, go out there and cut 1252 00:58:25,360 --> 00:58:26,800 Speaker 12: the grass. I'll pay you. 1253 00:58:27,120 --> 00:58:28,040 Speaker 4: As a matter of fact. 1254 00:58:28,080 --> 00:58:30,560 Speaker 12: Go out there, get the lawnmower, go across the street 1255 00:58:31,000 --> 00:58:34,000 Speaker 12: and ask your neighbor can you cut their grass? And 1256 00:58:34,040 --> 00:58:36,400 Speaker 12: you'll get paid. I think we got to start teaching 1257 00:58:36,400 --> 00:58:40,400 Speaker 12: our young people, you know, commission base rather than chore base. 1258 00:58:40,800 --> 00:58:43,920 Speaker 12: You know, what they do inside the house, that's just 1259 00:58:44,080 --> 00:58:46,040 Speaker 12: part of them because the world's not going to pay 1260 00:58:46,040 --> 00:58:47,800 Speaker 12: them for making up their bed when they turn twenty 1261 00:58:47,800 --> 00:58:49,720 Speaker 12: five years old. The world's not going to pay them 1262 00:58:49,720 --> 00:58:51,919 Speaker 12: for washing their own dishes. So we got to start 1263 00:58:52,000 --> 00:58:54,280 Speaker 12: raising up our child, our children in the way that 1264 00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:57,240 Speaker 12: they should go. So I'm commission based. Hey son, hey daughter, 1265 00:58:57,400 --> 00:58:59,200 Speaker 12: I'm not going to pay to do this around here, 1266 00:58:59,240 --> 00:59:01,040 Speaker 12: because I'm teaching you how to be an adult when 1267 00:59:01,040 --> 00:59:03,120 Speaker 12: you get older, when you get your own home. But 1268 00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:05,320 Speaker 12: let me teach you how to be a young teen entrepreneur. 1269 00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:08,440 Speaker 12: Let's go get you a dog walking business.

Let's start teaching our 1273 00:59:17,080 --> 00:59:19,040 Speaker 12: young people that money doesn't grow on trees, and it 1274 00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:22,040 Speaker 12: doesn't You don't get money just because you're my child. Now, 1275 00:59:22,080 --> 00:59:24,720 Speaker 12: you do have privileges, and I will give you some 1276 00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:26,760 Speaker 12: of those privileges, but I'm not going to make your 1277 00:59:26,760 --> 00:59:28,960 Speaker 12: life easy simply because you're my child. You're going to 1278 00:59:29,040 --> 00:59:30,480 Speaker 12: work for it because your mom and dad had to 1279 00:59:30,520 --> 00:59:30,880 Speaker 12: work for it. 1280 00:59:31,480 --> 00:59:33,560 Speaker 6: That's very profound. I had just spoke about this all 1281 00:59:33,600 --> 00:59:35,560 Speaker 6: the day, and I feel like that definitely can hurt 1282 00:59:35,600 --> 00:59:38,560 Speaker 6: a child. And when I used to love when it 1283 00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:42,560 Speaker 6: snowed because I used to shuffle my neighbors cars out. 1284 00:59:42,920 --> 00:59:44,760 Speaker 6: And you make a couple hundred dollars on a good 1285 00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:47,720 Speaker 6: on a good day, and I feel like stuff like 1286 00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:51,680 Speaker 6: that you start developing an entrepreneurial mindset as opposed to 1287 00:59:51,800 --> 00:59:55,560 Speaker 6: just being handed things that, like you said, in the 1288 00:59:55,600 --> 00:59:58,120 Speaker 6: grand Scheme of things, are kind of like trivial things 1289 00:59:58,160 --> 01:00:00,640 Speaker 6: that you already have to do in life anyway, like 1290 01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:04,080 Speaker 6: wash the dishes, things of that nature. Yeah, so now 1291 01:00:04,120 --> 01:00:08,760 Speaker 6: you're already kind of developing a dependent employee mindset as 1292 01:00:08,760 --> 01:00:12,120 Speaker 6: opposed to a business own an entrepreneur mindset. So sometimes 1293 01:00:12,120 --> 01:00:16,440 Speaker 6: when we think we're actually helping people, we can actually 1294 01:00:16,480 --> 01:00:17,040 Speaker 6: be hurting them. 1295 01:00:17,760 --> 01:00:18,840 Speaker 4: Absolutely absolutely. 1296 01:00:18,840 --> 01:00:21,520 Speaker 12: You know one of my kids that I mentored, he 1297 01:00:21,640 --> 01:00:25,200 Speaker 12: made five thousand dollars last summer just from walking dogs. 1298 01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:26,760 Speaker 4: Just from walking dogs. 1299 01:00:27,240 --> 01:00:29,959 Speaker 12: He made enough money in one summer to go buy 1300 01:00:30,080 --> 01:00:33,720 Speaker 12: his dream car for his age, just simply because he said, Hey, you. 1301 01:00:33,640 --> 01:00:35,480 Speaker 4: Know what, I'm gonna go out here and walk dogs. 1302 01:00:35,480 --> 01:00:37,840 Speaker 12: And some of those people who are saying you can welcome, 1303 01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:40,480 Speaker 12: they said, hey, can you watch my dog over the 1304 01:00:40,520 --> 01:00:42,880 Speaker 12: weekend since we're going out of town. His mom and 1305 01:00:42,920 --> 01:00:45,040 Speaker 12: dad turned their backyard into a kennel. But we got 1306 01:00:45,040 --> 01:00:47,160 Speaker 12: to start teaching our young people at a young age 1307 01:00:47,200 --> 01:00:50,800 Speaker 12: how to be entrepreneurs, how to think about ownership, so 1308 01:00:50,880 --> 01:00:52,320 Speaker 12: this way they can start producing money. 1309 01:00:52,360 --> 01:00:53,800 Speaker 4: And I think we got to start doing that with 1310 01:00:53,800 --> 01:00:54,400 Speaker 4: our young people. 1311 01:00:54,840 --> 01:00:55,720 Speaker 3: That's a great example. 1312 01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:58,600 Speaker 2: I'm glad that you that you used that right because 1313 01:00:58,600 --> 01:01:01,080 Speaker 2: you said he saved the money to buy the card 1314 01:01:01,160 --> 01:01:03,400 Speaker 2: that you want it. So what are some strategies What 1315 01:01:03,440 --> 01:01:06,400 Speaker 2: can you do to save money when you don't make 1316 01:01:06,480 --> 01:01:07,120 Speaker 2: much money? 1317 01:01:08,240 --> 01:01:11,160 Speaker 4: Number one, go make more money. You know what I mean. 1318 01:01:11,520 --> 01:01:12,080 Speaker 4: Let's be real. 1319 01:01:12,120 --> 01:01:14,240 Speaker 12: You know, it's like, let's never say that we cannot 1320 01:01:14,280 --> 01:01:15,160 Speaker 12: make any more money. 1321 01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:16,280 Speaker 4: We can make money. 1322 01:01:16,520 --> 01:01:19,280 Speaker 12: But one of the key things that I'm very very 1323 01:01:19,280 --> 01:01:23,080 Speaker 12: big on is two things, budgeting and Google pay. I 1324 01:01:23,080 --> 01:01:25,600 Speaker 12: want you to get on a straight, solid, zero based budget. 1325 01:01:25,600 --> 01:01:28,200 Speaker 12: You can list all your money, list all of your expenses, 1326 01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:30,560 Speaker 12: and it's your equals zero. When you're at your expenses, 1327 01:01:30,760 --> 01:01:32,880 Speaker 12: go over to Google pay. Look at all of your 1328 01:01:32,880 --> 01:01:34,840 Speaker 12: money that you've actually been spending. When it comes to 1329 01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:38,080 Speaker 12: your debit card if you got a credit card, you know, 1330 01:01:38,120 --> 01:01:39,680 Speaker 12: look at all the ways you're spending money. And so 1331 01:01:39,680 --> 01:01:41,640 Speaker 12: that way you can see, okay, hey, where can I 1332 01:01:41,680 --> 01:01:43,640 Speaker 12: cut off at? You know, I'm spending too much money 1333 01:01:43,720 --> 01:01:45,800 Speaker 12: on food, I'm spending too much money on you know, 1334 01:01:45,840 --> 01:01:48,760 Speaker 12: these particular apps. So how you can save money is 1335 01:01:48,800 --> 01:01:51,520 Speaker 12: by looking at your detailed budget and see where where 1336 01:01:51,520 --> 01:01:54,200 Speaker 12: can you eliminate some things from I do that often, 1337 01:01:54,240 --> 01:01:56,080 Speaker 12: and I do it at least once a quarter person 1338 01:01:56,160 --> 01:01:58,040 Speaker 12: with myself, really look at your budget. 1339 01:01:58,120 --> 01:01:58,800 Speaker 4: You can go from there. 1340 01:01:59,000 --> 01:02:01,439 Speaker 6: Let me ask you this before we rat. Everybody talks 1341 01:02:01,440 --> 01:02:05,360 Speaker 6: about generational wealth all the time. It's a very catchy phrase. 1342 01:02:05,440 --> 01:02:08,720 Speaker 6: But what are some practical steps that the average person 1343 01:02:08,760 --> 01:02:13,040 Speaker 6: can take to start the path of creating generational wealth? 1344 01:02:14,120 --> 01:02:15,600 Speaker 4: Man? I think the first thing is education. 1345 01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:16,120 Speaker 3: Man. 1346 01:02:16,320 --> 01:02:18,520 Speaker 12: You know, I think oftentimes you want to jump in like, hey, 1347 01:02:18,520 --> 01:02:20,560 Speaker 12: how do I get more money? How do I flip 1348 01:02:20,600 --> 01:02:23,040 Speaker 12: this money? But the key thing is where there is 1349 01:02:23,080 --> 01:02:26,040 Speaker 12: no wisdom, where there is no knowledge, that's where people perish. 1350 01:02:26,120 --> 01:02:28,240 Speaker 12: And so I think that if we can honestly get 1351 01:02:28,240 --> 01:02:30,600 Speaker 12: the if you really want to build true generational wealth, 1352 01:02:30,800 --> 01:02:33,120 Speaker 12: you got to start, you know, listening to podcasts. You 1353 01:02:33,120 --> 01:02:35,600 Speaker 12: got to start getting the education, reading the books. So 1354 01:02:35,640 --> 01:02:37,960 Speaker 12: that way, when you do get the opportunity to start, 1355 01:02:38,120 --> 01:02:41,360 Speaker 12: you know, investing into certain things, start a business, you 1356 01:02:41,440 --> 01:02:44,600 Speaker 12: have the education and knowledge to keep what you actually are. 1357 01:02:44,480 --> 01:02:45,160 Speaker 4: Able to get. 1358 01:02:45,400 --> 01:02:47,880 Speaker 12: So I think number one is get the education. Number 1359 01:02:47,920 --> 01:02:49,920 Speaker 12: two is I'm very big on it, y'all know me. 1360 01:02:50,000 --> 01:02:51,800 Speaker 12: You got to eliminate that. You got to take debt 1361 01:02:51,880 --> 01:02:54,560 Speaker 12: off of the table, so that way you're moving forward 1362 01:02:54,640 --> 01:02:57,320 Speaker 12: not paying for your past. And when you start doing that, 1363 01:02:57,600 --> 01:03:00,680 Speaker 12: A prime thing man is start investing, take advantage of 1364 01:03:01,040 --> 01:03:03,280 Speaker 12: you know, your four to one k matches if they have, 1365 01:03:03,840 --> 01:03:05,800 Speaker 12: you know, a wroth. There's three things when it comes 1366 01:03:05,800 --> 01:03:07,280 Speaker 12: like to four one k. I always say, look at 1367 01:03:07,280 --> 01:03:09,960 Speaker 12: the match, first, look at the wrath, then look at 1368 01:03:09,960 --> 01:03:13,080 Speaker 12: the traditional you know, so max that out. I always 1369 01:03:13,080 --> 01:03:15,640 Speaker 12: say to invest fifteen percent of your income you know, 1370 01:03:15,720 --> 01:03:17,440 Speaker 12: so that can either go to your four one k, 1371 01:03:17,560 --> 01:03:20,280 Speaker 12: then go over to like a wrath of wroth ira 1372 01:03:20,480 --> 01:03:23,280 Speaker 12: or traditional ira, depending on where you are. You can 1373 01:03:23,320 --> 01:03:27,200 Speaker 12: do that and then start looking at ownership, businesses, land 1374 01:03:27,880 --> 01:03:29,880 Speaker 12: that kind of stuff. But the key thing I want 1375 01:03:29,880 --> 01:03:33,000 Speaker 12: to tell you upfront is get the education. Get the information. 1376 01:03:33,560 --> 01:03:35,560 Speaker 12: Because you can be watching er your leader, you can 1377 01:03:35,600 --> 01:03:38,160 Speaker 12: watch myself, you can watch professor Keys, you can have 1378 01:03:38,240 --> 01:03:40,120 Speaker 12: Google pay app and see where you're doing. But if 1379 01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:42,640 Speaker 12: you don't have the information and the knowledge and continuing 1380 01:03:42,720 --> 01:03:45,280 Speaker 12: to grow your business, which is your mind, your number 1381 01:03:45,320 --> 01:03:47,760 Speaker 12: one asset, you'll never get there because you don't have 1382 01:03:47,760 --> 01:03:48,760 Speaker 12: the information to get there. 1383 01:03:49,480 --> 01:03:53,200 Speaker 6: All for words, allords, did you have, ladies and gentlemen, 1384 01:03:54,160 --> 01:03:58,040 Speaker 6: I appreciate it. Words of wisdom from the Great Anthony O'Neil. 1385 01:03:58,120 --> 01:04:04,720 Speaker 6: We call that cough talk, thank you, thank you, And 1386 01:04:05,000 --> 01:04:07,600 Speaker 6: like you said, it comes down to education. And I 1387 01:04:07,640 --> 01:04:10,160 Speaker 6: think that you know, we're in the age now where 1388 01:04:10,160 --> 01:04:13,960 Speaker 6: you can't really make an excuse, not like you know previously, 1389 01:04:14,520 --> 01:04:17,040 Speaker 6: you know you could make an excuse for not knowing, 1390 01:04:17,120 --> 01:04:19,200 Speaker 6: but now you know, we're in the information age where 1391 01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:23,600 Speaker 6: everything is readily available to you on you know, YouTube, Google, 1392 01:04:24,440 --> 01:04:27,880 Speaker 6: social media apps, podcast apps. It's just a matter of 1393 01:04:27,920 --> 01:04:30,960 Speaker 6: how you use it. You can use to waste time 1394 01:04:31,080 --> 01:04:33,560 Speaker 6: and do a lot of frivolous nonsense, or you can 1395 01:04:33,640 --> 01:04:35,800 Speaker 6: use it to educate yourself. So you know, we just 1396 01:04:35,840 --> 01:04:38,520 Speaker 6: have to make the right decisions. And you'd be surprised 1397 01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:41,720 Speaker 6: how many doors education can actually open. It kind of 1398 01:04:41,760 --> 01:04:44,480 Speaker 6: sounds stable, it's true. The more you know, it's just 1399 01:04:44,560 --> 01:04:50,000 Speaker 6: like it's like mind blowing, you know what opportunities present itself, 1400 01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:51,680 Speaker 6: because it's opportunities in front of you right now, but 1401 01:04:51,680 --> 01:04:53,280 Speaker 6: you're just not able to take advantage of it because 1402 01:04:53,280 --> 01:04:55,280 Speaker 6: you're not educated, so you don't even realize the opportunities 1403 01:04:55,320 --> 01:04:55,840 Speaker 6: actually there. 1404 01:04:56,040 --> 01:04:57,840 Speaker 3: The more you know, the more you know, that is 1405 01:04:57,840 --> 01:04:58,240 Speaker 3: a fact. 1406 01:04:58,400 --> 01:04:59,120 Speaker 6: That is a fat fact. 1407 01:04:59,400 --> 01:05:03,040 Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, And there was a lot of actual items 1408 01:05:03,080 --> 01:05:03,760 Speaker 2: giving out today. 1409 01:05:03,800 --> 01:05:07,480 Speaker 3: I want to again thank Professor Keys Keysier Williams and 1410 01:05:07,640 --> 01:05:10,880 Speaker 3: Anthony on Neil, but just delivering some powerful insight. 1411 01:05:11,040 --> 01:05:13,280 Speaker 2: And as we always say, man, we can give you 1412 01:05:13,320 --> 01:05:16,479 Speaker 2: the information, but don't turn it into information overtle, don't 1413 01:05:16,480 --> 01:05:17,760 Speaker 2: hoard it, actually. 1414 01:05:17,520 --> 01:05:19,400 Speaker 3: Apply it and execute on information.
