And it's nothing against the people that came 137 00:06:27,279 --> 00:06:30,960 Speaker 1: before us. But the tradition that we fallen into is 138 00:06:31,040 --> 00:06:33,720 Speaker 1: ship that we done got from people that left before us. 139 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:35,920 Speaker 1: They didn't have access to the knowledge. Let me tell 140 00:06:35,920 --> 00:06:38,039 Speaker 1: you all a quick story that I read a while back. Man, 141 00:06:38,200 --> 00:06:41,280 Speaker 1: it's right quick. It said that for Thanksgiving, and I 142 00:06:41,320 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: mean for Christmas time, a great grandchild asked the mother 143 00:06:47,080 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: as a grand a grandchild asked the mother. A daughter 144 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: asked her mother, mom, why do you cut the ends 145 00:06:52,120 --> 00:06:53,839 Speaker 1: off the hand when you put it in the oven? 146 00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,000 Speaker 1: And a mama said, man, you know, my you know 147 00:06:56,080 --> 00:06:59,280 Speaker 1: your grandmother taught me that. So that the granddaughter went 148 00:06:59,320 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: to the grandmother and said, Grandma, like, why do you 149 00:07:02,440 --> 00:07:04,120 Speaker 1: cut the ends off of the hand? Why did my 150 00:07:04,160 --> 00:07:06,599 Speaker 1: mama cut the ends off of the ham when she 151 00:07:06,720 --> 00:07:09,840 Speaker 1: puts it in the oven? The grandmother said, my great 152 00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,360 Speaker 1: my grand my mother taught me that. Let's go asswer 153 00:07:12,440 --> 00:07:14,600 Speaker 1: she over here. So she went to the great grandmother 154 00:07:14,600 --> 00:07:17,080 Speaker 1: and said, great grandmother, why do you cut the ends 155 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: off of that? Why did my mama cut the ends 156 00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:20,880 Speaker 1: off of the ham when she put it in the oven? 157 00:07:21,200 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 2: She said, oh, because we didn't have. 158 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 1: The hand was too big for the pants we had, 159 00:07:27,120 --> 00:07:29,160 Speaker 1: so we had to cut the ham off to get 160 00:07:29,200 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 1: it in a pan. And so now we don't follow 161 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: the whole tradition where they don't waste it that you 162 00:07:33,600 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: feel what I'm saying, not knowing how that came about, 163 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:39,080 Speaker 1: and you just following that tradition.

It's like a sandtrap. 207 00:09:34,280 --> 00:09:36,760 Speaker 3: Like this whole street thing is like a sandtrap where 208 00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:39,280 Speaker 3: it's like it's like a vortex, it like sucks you in. 209 00:09:39,520 --> 00:09:42,920 Speaker 3: The Street culture has just been glorified for so long, 210 00:09:43,480 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 3: and it's like it's just crazy, Like we glorify poverty, 211 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 3: we glorify violence, we glorify spending money. And I pray, 212 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 3: I pray that these artists, these young artists, really realize 213 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 3: the power in their voice because like I said, even 214 00:09:59,400 --> 00:10:00,920 Speaker 3: to me, like I'm saying like not to say that 215 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 3: hip hop is gonna ruin my life, but I have 216 00:10:03,640 --> 00:10:05,240 Speaker 3: to detox myself from rap. 217 00:10:05,280 --> 00:10:07,400 Speaker 2: And I love Wrap. I love Wrap with a passion. 218 00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:10,280 Speaker 3: But it's like these influences that you that you're putting in, 219 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,680 Speaker 3: you're not really even realizing what you're actually doing. Like 220 00:10:13,720 --> 00:10:15,680 Speaker 3: I was out, I was in Manhattan yesterday, I was 221 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 3: at dinner and I'm sitting next to his table, and 222 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:19,560 Speaker 3: it was like all white people. 223 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 2: This white guy. I kid you not. 224 00:10:22,080 --> 00:10:24,000 Speaker 3: It was like the craziest thing, because you know, I'm 225 00:10:24,040 --> 00:10:26,679 Speaker 3: ill hustling. I'm at dinner, but I'm ill hustling. So 226 00:10:26,720 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 3: the dude probably like in his twenties, like mid twenties, 227 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:31,320 Speaker 3: and he's talking to some other people and he's like, 228 00:10:31,360 --> 00:10:35,640 Speaker 3: he literally said this. He said, I don't spend no money. 229 00:10:35,880 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 3: He said, I pay my rent groceries. Every single dollar 230 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:41,800 Speaker 3: that I get after that goes to the stock market. 231 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 3: He said, I will spend no money. Then they start 232 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,840 Speaker 3: talking about stocks. He started talking about et After that, 233 00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 3: he said, every single discretionary dollar that I have goes 234 00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:54,320 Speaker 3: to the stock market. But that conversation was normal, Like 235 00:10:54,360 --> 00:10:57,679 Speaker 3: I'm listening to that conversation and they just randomly talking 236 00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 3: like you know what I'm saying. So we have to 237 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:03,000 Speaker 3: get normalized like that, and we have to understand that 238 00:11:03,720 --> 00:11:05,600 Speaker 3: for him to say that, right, And then I'm listening 239 00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,520 Speaker 3: to another podcast and I'm hearing a rapper and he 240 00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,680 Speaker 3: was saying the first hundred thousand dollars that he got 241 00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,920 Speaker 3: in life, the first one hundred thousand dollars that he 242 00:11:12,920 --> 00:11:15,160 Speaker 3: got in life, he gave his mom ten thousand, he 243 00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:17,160 Speaker 3: went to the jewelry store with the with the rest 244 00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:18,520 Speaker 3: and he was broke again. 245 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:19,880 Speaker 2: And then another rapper. 246 00:11:19,679 --> 00:11:21,680 Speaker 3: Was saying how he had a four hundred thousand dollars 247 00:11:21,760 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 3: tab at Gucci. So I'm like, how do you how 248 00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,840 Speaker 3: do you have a four hundred thousand dollars tab at Gucci? 249 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:32,640 Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.

And we were pawns on the chessboard, like 252 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:44,960 Speaker 3: poms on the chessboard, just being moved around. So you know, 253 00:11:45,200 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 3: the awakening and actually realizing financial literacy is life to death. Man, Like, 254 00:11:50,440 --> 00:11:52,880 Speaker 3: Like you know, we've had these conversations plenty of times 255 00:11:52,880 --> 00:11:56,000 Speaker 3: where there's plenty of people doing you know, jail time 256 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,640 Speaker 3: for making decisions that it wasn't really even that much 257 00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:01,400 Speaker 3: money in the grand scheme of I was like, you 258 00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:04,559 Speaker 3: could you could have made that money in wholesaling, real 259 00:12:04,640 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 3: estate or the machines all. 260 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:11,000 Speaker 1: Yo, Like here's a real life fact about myself.

So I have like a 493 00:22:31,119 --> 00:22:34,479 Speaker 1: freshman that bundle I'm putting together, and then it's a 494 00:22:34,480 --> 00:22:38,560 Speaker 1: sophomore bundle that I'm putting together, and then it's a 495 00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:41,879 Speaker 1: junior bundle that I'm putting together, and then the senior 496 00:22:41,920 --> 00:22:46,200 Speaker 1: bundle will actually be a mentorship. So going into twenty one, 497 00:22:46,640 --> 00:22:49,320 Speaker 1: I'm gonna actually build a mentorship so I now don't 498 00:22:49,359 --> 00:22:53,320 Speaker 1: have one on one with people. Then after that, I'm 499 00:22:53,400 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 1: writing my book this year. So twenty twenty one, I'm 500 00:22:55,400 --> 00:22:57,479 Speaker 1: gonna write my book. You know what I'm saying, And 501 00:22:57,520 --> 00:22:58,480 Speaker 1: I think what that does. 502 00:22:58,520 --> 00:23:00,760 Speaker 3: I gotta got right, I gotta ghostright that man chapter 503 00:23:00,800 --> 00:23:01,800 Speaker 3: at least a chapter. 504 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:05,680 Speaker 1: But already put that down. And I think the book 505 00:23:05,760 --> 00:23:07,760 Speaker 1: is important for me to take my brand to another 506 00:23:07,840 --> 00:23:08,920 Speaker 1: level because now. 507 00:23:08,880 --> 00:23:11,640 Speaker 2: I cross over from being and there's nothing. 508 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,360 Speaker 1: Wrong with it, but I cross over from just being 509 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:17,280 Speaker 1: a person who you know, sell courses online to now 510 00:23:17,800 --> 00:23:21,679 Speaker 1: get into really impacting people with the story, you know 511 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,040 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. So that's something real important for me. 512 00:23:24,480 --> 00:23:28,080 Speaker 1: And then turning my brand, Trap Apparel, Inc. Into a 513 00:23:28,240 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 1: real business like a brand like a Foogle brand or 514 00:23:32,560 --> 00:23:36,000 Speaker 1: something like that. So it's just now opening it up 515 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 1: and then opening my portfolio up. You know, I told 516 00:23:39,000 --> 00:23:41,320 Speaker 1: you I had linded on the truck already, so I 517 00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:44,120 Speaker 1: have two lending trucks on a right now. And then 518 00:23:44,200 --> 00:23:46,359 Speaker 1: just getting into more. I won't start playing monopoly. I 519 00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:47,600 Speaker 1: just want to go in the hood and just about 520 00:23:47,560 --> 00:23:49,840 Speaker 1: a bunch of properties.

But the opposite is that 582 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:31,840 Speaker 3: you can be you can be successful by association. I 583 00:26:31,880 --> 00:26:33,800 Speaker 3: was telling one of my young boys just the other day. 584 00:26:34,119 --> 00:26:36,400 Speaker 3: You can make a million on the humble by accident. 585 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:41,280 Speaker 3: You could be a millionaire by accident stumbling if you 586 00:26:41,480 --> 00:26:43,679 Speaker 3: just with if you just with the right people and 587 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:47,000 Speaker 3: you just add value, it's just a matter of win. 588 00:26:47,480 --> 00:26:50,040 Speaker 3: It's just a matter of win by accident. And another 589 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:54,439 Speaker 3: another thing that he said was positive peer pressure. And 590 00:26:54,480 --> 00:26:56,040 Speaker 3: I think that that's something that you know, all of 591 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,600 Speaker 3: us have. It's like we're all competitive. So it's like 592 00:26:59,160 --> 00:27:02,040 Speaker 3: I I'm I just going just sit and watch trap 593 00:27:02,119 --> 00:27:03,440 Speaker 3: take his thing to the next level. 594 00:27:04,720 --> 00:27:04,879 Speaker 1: You know. 595 00:27:04,960 --> 00:27:08,280 Speaker 3: It said, like it's positive pit pressure, it's competition.

Y'all ain't thought about how y'all 615 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 1: can build something and make an investment together. Then that's 616 00:27:53,000 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 1: the wrong type of friends that have around you, right. 617 00:27:55,480 --> 00:28:02,680 Speaker 1: So I remember, I remember when the quarantine had first hit, 618 00:28:02,760 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: and I remember y'all you you called me and you 619 00:28:06,119 --> 00:28:09,040 Speaker 1: was like trap.

I see that post from Ian, I see 692 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,280 Speaker 1: that pole from you, I see that pole from Jamal. 693 00:31:27,560 --> 00:31:29,400 Speaker 1: We were pushing it the same way. 694 00:31:29,440 --> 00:31:29,640 Speaker 5: Man. 695 00:31:29,760 --> 00:31:32,320 Speaker 2: So man, I just won't see every I won't see 696 00:31:32,360 --> 00:31:32,640 Speaker 2: us win. 697 00:31:32,720 --> 00:31:34,760 Speaker 1: Man. And I know how fault. I know we just 698 00:31:34,800 --> 00:31:37,320 Speaker 1: scratching the surface. And we all got something that's so 699 00:31:37,520 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 1: unique that the culture needs. 700 00:31:38,840 --> 00:31:41,280 Speaker 3: Man, for sure, I think that that's something that and 701 00:31:41,640 --> 00:31:43,560 Speaker 3: especially like like I said, David Share. Another thing that 702 00:31:43,600 --> 00:31:47,000 Speaker 3: he said is like when you're in the room with 703 00:31:47,880 --> 00:31:50,720 Speaker 3: like everybody that's doing bad, right, It's very hard to 704 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 3: be the one person to do. 705 00:31:52,440 --> 00:31:54,520 Speaker 2: Good in a in a bad environment. 706 00:31:54,560 --> 00:31:57,680 Speaker 3: It's hard, like if you if you're around people and 707 00:31:57,880 --> 00:32:01,680 Speaker 3: every single person is smoke drinking, it's hard to be 708 00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:05,720 Speaker 3: the one person that's sober. But the opposite is that 709 00:32:06,120 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 3: it's hard to be the one person doing bad in 710 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:10,520 Speaker 3: a room full of good. So, if you're in a 711 00:32:10,600 --> 00:32:12,680 Speaker 3: room full of church ladies, and if you got any 712 00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:14,800 Speaker 3: level of common sense, you're not just gonna be cursing it. 713 00:32:15,080 --> 00:32:17,920 Speaker 3: You're gonna conduct yourself a certain way because you're gonna 714 00:32:17,920 --> 00:32:20,200 Speaker 3: feel out of place. You're gonna feel out of place 715 00:32:20,240 --> 00:32:23,160 Speaker 3: doing bad and a room full of good people just 716 00:32:23,200 --> 00:32:25,800 Speaker 3: like you feel out of place doing good and a 717 00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:28,920 Speaker 3: room full of people that are doing bad things right. 718 00:32:30,120 --> 00:32:32,760 Speaker 3: I say that to say a lot of times people 719 00:32:32,800 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 3: are self sabotaging their success because of the people that 720 00:32:36,800 --> 00:32:41,160 Speaker 3: they're around. It's hard to be successful when everybody around 721 00:32:41,240 --> 00:32:44,520 Speaker 3: you is doing bad. So what happens a lot of 722 00:32:44,560 --> 00:32:48,680 Speaker 3: times is that you subconsciously or consciously self sabotage your 723 00:32:48,720 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 3: success to dim your light because nobody wants to be 724 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:55,640 Speaker 3: the if you If you're a decent person. You feel 725 00:32:55,680 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 3: extremely uncomfortable riding through a poor neighborhood in the Lamborghini, right, 726 00:33:01,680 --> 00:33:03,239 Speaker 3: Like you know what I'm saying. It's like, it's just 727 00:33:04,040 --> 00:33:06,560 Speaker 3: it's it's not comfortable. It's not comfortable, Like you don't 728 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:08,240 Speaker 3: want to be in the project with a fur coat 729 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:11,280 Speaker 3: on it. It's not comfortable. But if you in Beverly Hills, 730 00:33:11,320 --> 00:33:12,160 Speaker 3: you feel comfortable. 731 00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 1: Right. 732 00:33:12,800 --> 00:33:15,680 Speaker 3: So I say that to say it's like, sometimes you 733 00:33:15,760 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 3: have to separate the people might not be at their mindset, 734 00:33:19,800 --> 00:33:23,600 Speaker 3: might not be conducive to your to your your growth, 735 00:33:24,040 --> 00:33:26,760 Speaker 3: and sometimes you might you might have to outgrow somebody 736 00:33:26,800 --> 00:33:29,760 Speaker 3: in a certain moment of time until they can catch up. 737 00:33:30,200 --> 00:33:32,840 Speaker 3: Because you constantly put in a group chat. I'm doing 738 00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:35,600 Speaker 3: this through on that and everybody else is they gonna 739 00:33:35,640 --> 00:33:38,080 Speaker 3: discourage you like stocks, you keep talking about stocks for 740 00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:41,680 Speaker 3: psychologically you're gonna you're gonna like, now, let me stop 741 00:33:41,720 --> 00:33:43,800 Speaker 3: talking about this because this is just doesn't fit. Let 742 00:33:43,840 --> 00:33:45,560 Speaker 3: me talk about love and hip hop because this is 743 00:33:45,560 --> 00:33:48,320 Speaker 3: something that is more comfortable. I see that happening all 744 00:33:48,360 --> 00:33:51,360 Speaker 3: the time. So I just that's something to to to 745 00:33:51,440 --> 00:33:53,680 Speaker 3: really think about as well as you got to take 746 00:33:53,720 --> 00:33:57,640 Speaker 3: an inventory of your circle. And if your circle isn't 747 00:33:57,680 --> 00:33:59,360 Speaker 3: on the same type of time that you on, or 748 00:33:59,440 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 3: isn't pushing you the same way that you should be pushed, 749 00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:04,800 Speaker 3: it's time to find a new circles. 750 00:34:05,360 --> 00:34:10,239 Speaker 1: No, that's without a listen, that is so imperative to 751 00:34:10,280 --> 00:34:12,160 Speaker 1: where you're trying to go at. So check this out, 752 00:34:12,640 --> 00:34:15,120 Speaker 1: like you know, and it's saying if you're around five 753 00:34:15,160 --> 00:34:20,600 Speaker 1: millionaires by default, you become the sixth on by default. 754 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:26,040 Speaker 1: Because what happens is they start having different conversations. You 755 00:34:26,120 --> 00:34:29,120 Speaker 1: can't go into like you can't come into our like 756 00:34:29,280 --> 00:34:31,879 Speaker 1: you can't come into our group chat talking about yeah, man, 757 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:34,000 Speaker 1: your girl on love and hip hop? You wanna look 758 00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,640 Speaker 1: at you like I might text you personal like a shot? 759 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:40,360 Speaker 1: Who is this guy? How he got here? You know 760 00:34:40,440 --> 00:34:43,400 Speaker 1: what I'm saying? Like what every nine and then we 761 00:34:43,480 --> 00:34:46,600 Speaker 1: might throw a sports topic in the group. Uh, you know, 762 00:34:46,640 --> 00:34:50,319 Speaker 1: we'll talk about politics. We we literally talked about how 763 00:34:50,360 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 1: the Trump, how Trump and Bidy was gonna affect we 764 00:34:54,080 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 1: in a group check having that political talk. You know 765 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:59,160 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, were in a group check talking about business, 766 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 1: the market, all of that. What happens is now you 767 00:35:03,080 --> 00:35:06,000 Speaker 1: look for value every time you find something value, you 768 00:35:06,040 --> 00:35:08,040 Speaker 1: throw that in the group chat. You know what I'm saying, 769 00:35:08,080 --> 00:35:11,239 Speaker 1: every time you find a gym cool. They ain't got 770 00:35:11,239 --> 00:35:13,080 Speaker 1: this right here yet, you know what I'm saying. And 771 00:35:13,120 --> 00:35:18,520 Speaker 1: so now those ideas become damn like I see they 772 00:35:18,560 --> 00:35:20,759 Speaker 1: on it. So now you start understanding, I can't have 773 00:35:20,800 --> 00:35:23,560 Speaker 1: this conversation right here. And then what happens on the 774 00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:27,560 Speaker 1: what happens now on the back end is those other 775 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:30,600 Speaker 1: conversations become frivolous. You don't even want to have them 776 00:35:30,640 --> 00:35:34,840 Speaker 1: no more because you so used to having these conversations 777 00:35:34,880 --> 00:35:39,399 Speaker 1: that are conducive to you succeeding. These conversations start now 778 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:42,880 Speaker 1: making things possible, Like you start saying like, damn, like 779 00:35:43,920 --> 00:35:45,800 Speaker 1: I can have ten thousand dollars in a stock market, 780 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,760 Speaker 1: Damn traps, just say he bought one hundred ships, Damn 781 00:35:49,800 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 1: shot them, just got a truck. Damn, this has got 782 00:35:52,520 --> 00:35:55,960 Speaker 1: an apartment complex. Damn they just did this, and I 783 00:35:56,000 --> 00:35:57,960 Speaker 1: wasn't even Now you start looking at your owser, but 784 00:35:58,080 --> 00:36:01,520 Speaker 1: like you trying to throw a topic in that nobody 785 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:05,879 Speaker 1: don't want no parts of it, right, show him, no move, 786 00:36:06,040 --> 00:36:10,160 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying. So it's and that's why 787 00:36:10,200 --> 00:36:12,319 Speaker 1: One of the things important for people to do is this, 788 00:36:13,680 --> 00:36:17,760 Speaker 1: go on your Instagram. Look at everybody that you following. 789 00:36:18,960 --> 00:36:21,160 Speaker 1: If you can't go on it, this is how I 790 00:36:21,239 --> 00:36:24,319 Speaker 1: manage my Instagram. If I get on my gram and 791 00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:26,560 Speaker 1: I see you live and I can't tap on that 792 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:30,840 Speaker 1: and learn something, it's an unfollow for me. It's a 793 00:36:30,880 --> 00:36:33,440 Speaker 1: no follower if I can't see I don't mind you 794 00:36:33,480 --> 00:36:36,000 Speaker 1: posting a joke here. Now, that's one of the thing cool. 795 00:36:36,400 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 1: But if ninety percent of your content isn't something I 796 00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:42,320 Speaker 1: can learn from and put in one of these tablets, 797 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 1: that's a no goal for me. Because what happens is 798 00:36:46,600 --> 00:36:49,120 Speaker 1: we've been entertained for so long. At what point do 799 00:36:49,200 --> 00:36:52,720 Speaker 1: we say, I gotta start getting educated Because the education 800 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:57,360 Speaker 1: and the information is defertilized. The lack of it is 801 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:00,479 Speaker 1: what keeps you where you at. You weed, we gonna 802 00:37:00,480 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 1: grow anywhere?

Slash 988 00:46:33,560 --> 00:46:34,880 Speaker 8: investing in America. 989 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:38,960 Speaker 1: Take that income, learn how to invest, and then turn 990 00:46:39,080 --> 00:46:41,600 Speaker 1: that income and put that income into an investment and 991 00:46:41,680 --> 00:46:44,600 Speaker 1: now becomes capital. The income that you put into your 992 00:46:44,719 --> 00:46:48,680 Speaker 1: investment account is capital. Now it's still money, but it's 993 00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:51,000 Speaker 1: called capital and the investment world because that money is 994 00:46:51,040 --> 00:46:53,799 Speaker 1: you to purchase assets. You feel what I'm saying. Then 995 00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:58,799 Speaker 1: those assets that capital now becomes an ROI or until 996 00:46:58,800 --> 00:47:01,240 Speaker 1: you want that capital become a return on an investment. 997 00:47:01,600 --> 00:47:05,760 Speaker 1: And what happens is every investment that you make buys 998 00:47:05,880 --> 00:47:10,200 Speaker 1: back some of your time. The objective why he don't 999 00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:13,920 Speaker 1: care about Tuesday being a Sunday is because he owns 1000 00:47:13,960 --> 00:47:18,080 Speaker 1: his twenty four hours. Listen to me the person who 1001 00:47:18,480 --> 00:47:22,400 Speaker 1: owns the most of their time can then create the 1002 00:47:22,520 --> 00:47:26,960 Speaker 1: most wealth. The more time that you can own, the 1003 00:47:27,080 --> 00:47:29,800 Speaker 1: more wealth that you can create. And so now you 1004 00:47:29,920 --> 00:47:33,480 Speaker 1: put your time like this, how long will it take 1005 00:47:33,520 --> 00:47:36,839 Speaker 1: you to own your twenty four hours? Will it take 1006 00:47:36,880 --> 00:47:39,439 Speaker 1: you two years, would it take you five years? Will 1007 00:47:39,480 --> 00:47:42,239 Speaker 1: it take you ten years? That should be the goal. 1008 00:47:42,800 --> 00:47:45,000 Speaker 1: For me. The goal was never how much money I 1009 00:47:45,080 --> 00:47:47,759 Speaker 1: could make. It was how much time can I own. 1010 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:51,160 Speaker 1: I need to have time equity. I need to own 1011 00:47:51,239 --> 00:47:53,920 Speaker 1: as much of my time as possible, because if I 1012 00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:56,120 Speaker 1: own my twenty four hours, I don't care if it's 1013 00:47:56,160 --> 00:47:59,000 Speaker 1: Monday a Sunday. I don't care if it's Tuesday or Saturday. 1014 00:47:59,360 --> 00:48:01,800 Speaker 1: I don't care if it's it's Wednesday or Thursday. Because 1015 00:48:01,880 --> 00:48:04,239 Speaker 1: every day I'm blessed to say I get up and 1016 00:48:04,320 --> 00:48:06,279 Speaker 1: do what I want, when I want, how I want. 1017 00:48:07,160 --> 00:48:09,560 Speaker 1: That's the blessing. For me. It's not about how much 1018 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:12,919 Speaker 1: money I have. It's about how much time that I own. 1019 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:16,080 Speaker 1: And I own my time by making the most investments. 1020 00:48:16,080 --> 00:48:19,359 Speaker 1: It's like the dual writers, the dual toy man. All 1021 00:48:19,440 --> 00:48:21,880 Speaker 1: of my money goes into the stock market, and for me, 1022 00:48:22,440 --> 00:48:25,160 Speaker 1: sixty percent of my wealth is in the stock market. 1023 00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:27,800 Speaker 1: And the reason why that is because I realized this 1024 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:33,600 Speaker 1: once I started really studying great wealthy people. When I 1025 00:48:33,680 --> 00:48:37,560 Speaker 1: study even looking at Warren Buffett, looking at Bill Gates, 1026 00:48:37,680 --> 00:48:41,719 Speaker 1: looking at Jeff Bezos, sixty five percent of their money 1027 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:45,680 Speaker 1: is in their wealth is in the stock market, sixty 1028 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:49,839 Speaker 1: five to seventy percent. So that told me that if 1029 00:48:49,920 --> 00:48:52,800 Speaker 1: that's what they doing, if that's the blueprint, that's the 1030 00:48:52,840 --> 00:48:56,359 Speaker 1: blueprint I'm following. I'm a follow the people who did 1031 00:48:56,400 --> 00:49:00,799 Speaker 1: it and did it well, right, you don't become top 1032 00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:04,000 Speaker 1: five richest people in the world by luck that. 1033 00:49:04,239 --> 00:49:06,360 Speaker 2: You know what. You know, what's so crazy that you 1034 00:49:06,440 --> 00:49:07,160 Speaker 2: said that? Because we did. 1035 00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:09,600 Speaker 3: We did a YouTube blob for day from rec Philly. 1036 00:49:09,640 --> 00:49:12,000 Speaker 3: Shout out to rec Philly. They got a dope events 1037 00:49:12,080 --> 00:49:13,920 Speaker 3: based in Philly. So we're on a YouTube lib and 1038 00:49:13,960 --> 00:49:16,759 Speaker 3: they're asking us questions and we're talking about, you know, 1039 00:49:17,080 --> 00:49:19,680 Speaker 3: investing stocks real estate. So one of the one of 1040 00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:22,400 Speaker 3: the young lady that was on the YouTube blog, she's like, 1041 00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:25,000 Speaker 3: are there any other ways that you can invest outside 1042 00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:27,120 Speaker 3: of stocks in real estate? So I'm like, what have 1043 00:49:27,239 --> 00:49:29,640 Speaker 3: you invested in? And she's like, I haven't invested yet. 1044 00:49:29,960 --> 00:49:34,200 Speaker 3: So I'm like, all right, so one hundred percent, probably 1045 00:49:34,280 --> 00:49:36,800 Speaker 3: ninety nine point nine percent of the millionaires in the 1046 00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:39,200 Speaker 3: United States of America and probably all over the world, 1047 00:49:39,239 --> 00:49:42,680 Speaker 3: but United States of America have some real estate or 1048 00:49:42,960 --> 00:49:43,879 Speaker 3: some stockholdings. 1049 00:49:44,000 --> 00:49:45,200 Speaker 2: That's safe to say. 1050 00:49:45,239 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 3: Right, So if you're just starting out and one hundred 1051 00:49:48,600 --> 00:49:52,200 Speaker 3: percent of the millionaires have real estate, a stop, why 1052 00:49:52,200 --> 00:49:55,040 Speaker 3: are you looking for an alternative outside of real estate 1053 00:49:55,040 --> 00:49:57,719 Speaker 3: and stocks? Like we try to make things complicated, over 1054 00:49:57,800 --> 00:50:00,120 Speaker 3: complicate things like you want me to tell you some 1055 00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:04,279 Speaker 3: crazy oil rig to invest in investing in your full 1056 00:50:04,320 --> 00:50:08,280 Speaker 3: one kid yet and you're not investing bitcoin and precious 1057 00:50:08,400 --> 00:50:12,719 Speaker 3: precious metals and oil refinery Like it's like. 1058 00:50:12,800 --> 00:50:15,680 Speaker 2: Yo, just keep it care simple, keep it simple. 1059 00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:18,840 Speaker 1: It's simple for me, yo, Like, And that's what I 1060 00:50:19,000 --> 00:50:21,239 Speaker 1: that's like one of my biggest things is always like 1061 00:50:21,400 --> 00:50:24,840 Speaker 1: for me, I'm just following the people who came before me, 1062 00:50:25,640 --> 00:50:29,120 Speaker 1: that's all. I Ain't doing nothing different, Yo, I don't 1063 00:50:29,120 --> 00:50:32,239 Speaker 1: gotta listen. I'm not an inventor. I don't got to 1064 00:50:32,320 --> 00:50:34,920 Speaker 1: try to create the next thing that's gonna change the world. 1065 00:50:35,480 --> 00:50:38,040 Speaker 1: That ain't what I'm good at. Right. What I need 1066 00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:40,920 Speaker 1: to learn how to do is become the best investor 1067 00:50:41,000 --> 00:50:43,919 Speaker 1: that I can be. When I was in prison during 1068 00:50:44,040 --> 00:50:49,200 Speaker 1: my time, that white dude told me this, wealthy people 1069 00:50:50,040 --> 00:50:54,160 Speaker 1: invest in stocks, real estate and they start a business. 1070 00:50:54,880 --> 00:50:57,520 Speaker 1: So that was the manser that I followed. If you 1071 00:50:57,640 --> 00:50:59,800 Speaker 1: was saying real estate stocks, I probably wouldn't be a 1072 00:50:59,800 --> 00:51:02,360 Speaker 1: wall travel. I probably would be the real estate travel 1073 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:05,640 Speaker 1: because I followed the rule that he gave me. He 1074 00:51:05,760 --> 00:51:08,799 Speaker 1: said real estate. I mean, he said stocks, real estate 1075 00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:11,640 Speaker 1: and start your business. The reason why he said stocks first, 1076 00:51:11,640 --> 00:51:13,719 Speaker 1: and it made assistant me because that's the easiest way, 1077 00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:16,320 Speaker 1: that has the lowest barrier, the entry barrier. You know 1078 00:51:16,360 --> 00:51:18,080 Speaker 1: what I'm saying. You take your little you know, twenty 1079 00:51:18,160 --> 00:51:19,759 Speaker 1: thirty dollars, you put that in a stocking mall. It's 1080 00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:21,600 Speaker 1: gonna work for you regardless, you know what I'm saying. 1081 00:51:21,719 --> 00:51:23,319 Speaker 1: Then you get into really you know, you start learning 1082 00:51:23,320 --> 00:51:25,440 Speaker 1: how to run a business and all that. But spots 1083 00:51:25,560 --> 00:51:28,160 Speaker 1: was the easiest place to go. So I just followed that. 1084 00:51:28,320 --> 00:51:30,839 Speaker 1: It wasn't no need for me to try to man, 1085 00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:35,040 Speaker 1: let me try to do no that's following, and I'm 1086 00:51:35,040 --> 00:51:37,800 Speaker 1: gonna just get real good at it. And to what 1087 00:51:38,000 --> 00:51:40,800 Speaker 1: now It's like okay, like all right, I got this 1088 00:51:41,000 --> 00:51:43,520 Speaker 1: much money in stocks, So okay, what's the first thing 1089 00:51:43,560 --> 00:51:46,120 Speaker 1: I'm gonna do.

So I 1176 00:55:41,920 --> 00:55:45,040 Speaker 1: bought her ebook How to Make nine K in thirty 1177 00:55:45,120 --> 00:55:47,319 Speaker 1: Days for the forty of the people in my group. 1178 00:55:48,120 --> 00:55:51,680 Speaker 1: I bought it for them, and she broke down a 1179 00:55:51,760 --> 00:55:57,200 Speaker 1: process of how to create an ebook based on whatever 1180 00:55:57,280 --> 00:56:01,440 Speaker 1: you're doing right, and the way she broke it down 1181 00:56:01,480 --> 00:56:04,680 Speaker 1: to my trappers and shit, and it was like, there's 1182 00:56:04,800 --> 00:56:08,759 Speaker 1: no reason why you shouldn't have another stream of income right. 1183 00:56:08,840 --> 00:56:10,839 Speaker 1: And it goes back to the saying that I say, 1184 00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:16,319 Speaker 1: if you allow them to feed you, you give them 1185 00:56:16,480 --> 00:56:22,000 Speaker 1: permission to stop.

And what happens is the basis 1189 00:56:35,480 --> 00:56:39,880 Speaker 1: of me making that statement was simple. When I was 1190 00:56:39,920 --> 00:56:43,200 Speaker 1: working my job, I used to tell them like, yo, 1191 00:56:43,200 --> 00:56:45,719 Speaker 1: I'm about to take off. Yeah, and they'll be like, well, 1192 00:56:45,719 --> 00:56:47,479 Speaker 1: you can't take off. I'll be like, I'm not asking 1193 00:56:47,520 --> 00:56:50,960 Speaker 1: you to take off. I'm taking off. And whatever you 1194 00:56:51,080 --> 00:56:53,880 Speaker 1: don't do after that, like it's on you. You know 1195 00:56:53,920 --> 00:56:55,880 Speaker 1: what I'm saying, Because I had already like by me 1196 00:56:55,920 --> 00:56:57,520 Speaker 1: being a hustle I was only working. I felt like 1197 00:56:57,560 --> 00:57:00,320 Speaker 1: I was only working because you know, I couldn't no 1198 00:57:00,400 --> 00:57:02,840 Speaker 1: more because I felt like, damn, I ain't got no bread, 1199 00:57:03,239 --> 00:57:05,880 Speaker 1: Like I'm my back against the wall, right, And so 1200 00:57:06,120 --> 00:57:08,279 Speaker 1: I still had the hustle mindset. So I wound up 1201 00:57:08,680 --> 00:57:10,600 Speaker 1: like you know, after I build a Falcon stadium, I 1202 00:57:10,680 --> 00:57:12,600 Speaker 1: build like two more power plants, and I walked up 1203 00:57:12,640 --> 00:57:14,680 Speaker 1: the job to go all in on my brand.

This 1713 01:21:23,040 --> 01:21:25,519 Speaker 1: comes from iPhones that having ten thousand dollars, the equipment 1714 01:21:25,600 --> 01:21:28,000 Speaker 1: to make up real you know what I'm saying.

So and then what happens now 1717 01:21:33,920 --> 01:21:36,639 Speaker 1: is when you tell that story like yo, we did 1718 01:21:36,680 --> 01:21:39,719 Speaker 1: this with iPhones and now we got you know however 1719 01:21:39,880 --> 01:21:42,800 Speaker 1: much And like that's somebody who thought about putting a 1720 01:21:42,880 --> 01:21:47,160 Speaker 1: podcast together saying I can do it. You feel me. 1721 01:21:47,400 --> 01:21:49,240 Speaker 1: That's somebody saying but I ain't never invest in the 1722 01:21:49,280 --> 01:21:53,960 Speaker 1: stock before. But shit, from seeing Wallstreet trapping Ian and 1723 01:21:54,080 --> 01:21:56,040 Speaker 1: y'all talk about it, I know I can do it. 1724 01:21:56,520 --> 01:21:58,320 Speaker 1: I ain't never heard the futures before.

So it's now 1729 01:22:05,760 --> 01:22:09,040 Speaker 1: it's a transition to saying, Yo, we all got a story. 1730 01:22:09,520 --> 01:22:12,640 Speaker 1: This is how we connect, this is what's possible. And 1731 01:22:12,720 --> 01:22:15,120 Speaker 1: I think that's what we represent. I think we were 1732 01:22:15,400 --> 01:22:19,560 Speaker 1: We represent what's possible on the level that's attainable, you 1733 01:22:19,640 --> 01:22:21,800 Speaker 1: know what I'm saying. And I think that's what people 1734 01:22:21,920 --> 01:22:24,240 Speaker 1: need to see and that's what people enjoy and that's 1735 01:22:24,240 --> 01:22:27,360 Speaker 1: what people love.

You know, Troy, 1784 01:25:05,320 --> 01:25:07,519 Speaker 3: he no choice you're making. So he comes from a 1785 01:25:07,560 --> 01:25:09,960 Speaker 3: West Indian family and it was just hard workers. You know, 1786 01:25:10,320 --> 01:25:12,040 Speaker 3: if you know what you're making. They got three jobs 1787 01:25:12,040 --> 01:25:14,400 Speaker 3: since they eight year old. Like they just work like 1788 01:25:14,439 --> 01:25:15,920 Speaker 3: they know, they know what I'm saying. They're good people. 1789 01:25:15,960 --> 01:25:18,360 Speaker 3: They just they just know about work. He's not really 1790 01:25:18,400 --> 01:25:22,080 Speaker 3: from an entrepreneur background, so I was always telling him like, yo, nah, 1791 01:25:22,120 --> 01:25:24,000 Speaker 3: you're gonna, you're gonna, you're gonna be doing this full time. 1792 01:25:24,040 --> 01:25:25,680 Speaker 3: And then I remember, you know, he was always like, no, 1793 01:25:25,800 --> 01:25:27,880 Speaker 3: you know, I'm I'm calling my calling is to teach. 1794 01:25:27,920 --> 01:25:28,720 Speaker 2: My call is to teach. 1795 01:25:29,960 --> 01:25:33,680 Speaker 3: And I'm like I told him, I said, look, no disrespect, 1796 01:25:33,920 --> 01:25:39,240 Speaker 3: but I'm like, uh, there's millions of physical education teachers, 1797 01:25:39,960 --> 01:25:42,960 Speaker 3: any anybody, I said, anybody could be a physical education teacher, 1798 01:25:43,479 --> 01:25:46,240 Speaker 3: but only a select feel can actually change the world. 1799 01:25:46,760 --> 01:25:49,360 Speaker 3: I'm like, I'm like, you can change the world, Like 1800 01:25:49,360 --> 01:25:51,960 Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying, You're mission, your purpose on life. 1801 01:25:52,600 --> 01:25:55,400 Speaker 3: It's bigger than being a physical education teacher, Like you 1802 01:25:55,520 --> 01:25:58,679 Speaker 3: got the ability to change the world. And to see 1803 01:25:58,800 --> 01:26:00,080 Speaker 3: like that's true, like you know what I'm saying. And 1804 01:26:00,200 --> 01:26:02,800 Speaker 3: so it's like even him, like you know what I'm saying, 1805 01:26:02,880 --> 01:26:05,280 Speaker 3: Like now he's transitioning with this is full time now, 1806 01:26:05,400 --> 01:26:07,200 Speaker 3: like you know what I'm saying. And it's like for me, 1807 01:26:07,720 --> 01:26:11,439 Speaker 3: that's that's that's just dope to see his transition because 1808 01:26:11,520 --> 01:26:13,360 Speaker 3: like I said, me, I always was an entrepreneur, but 1809 01:26:13,439 --> 01:26:16,879 Speaker 3: he wasn't always an entrepreneur. So to go from education 1810 01:26:17,360 --> 01:26:21,120 Speaker 3: to now educating, but now you're educating millions of people. 1811 01:26:21,880 --> 01:26:24,479 Speaker 3: It's like, what if you would have had that mindset 1812 01:26:24,520 --> 01:26:27,280 Speaker 3: of like no, I can't leave my job, you know 1813 01:26:27,280 --> 01:26:29,120 Speaker 3: what I'm saying, Like it would have never happened. 1814 01:26:29,640 --> 01:26:33,200 Speaker 1: I remember telling Troy that so like I remember when 1815 01:26:33,200 --> 01:26:35,760 Speaker 1: I when I came, did the podcast and we built 1816 01:26:35,880 --> 01:26:37,799 Speaker 1: I remember Traul was like, Yo, this is a classic. 1817 01:26:38,520 --> 01:26:40,880 Speaker 1: I was like, and I was like telling y'all like bro, 1818 01:26:41,080 --> 01:26:43,479 Speaker 1: like nah, like what y'all doing is for real.

I was like the pressure on. And 1826 01:27:07,360 --> 01:27:09,040 Speaker 1: then I remember when he did it. He called me 1827 01:27:09,160 --> 01:27:13,360 Speaker 1: like I did a trap. I was like what you did? 1828 01:27:13,439 --> 01:27:16,120 Speaker 1: He was like, it ain't no going back.

I'm gonna just be honest with you. The 1836 01:27:40,040 --> 01:27:43,719 Speaker 1: scariest part for me was saying I'm gonna leave my job, 1837 01:27:44,760 --> 01:27:47,360 Speaker 1: go back to New Orleans and not get back in 1838 01:27:47,400 --> 01:27:50,920 Speaker 1: the streets at all. That was the hard part. That 1839 01:27:51,080 --> 01:27:53,800 Speaker 1: was the scary part for me, the scary part. And 1840 01:27:53,920 --> 01:27:57,880 Speaker 1: and please let me, I wasn't no l trap or 1841 01:27:57,960 --> 01:28:00,519 Speaker 1: nothing like that. Please let me let me.

That's the easy part of all. Part back 1846 01:28:14,760 --> 01:28:18,639 Speaker 1: to my culture, my hood, well not my hood because 1847 01:28:18,680 --> 01:28:21,320 Speaker 1: my hood ain't been the same as years, but my culture, 1848 01:28:21,880 --> 01:28:25,320 Speaker 1: my city where I know I know how to get around, 1849 01:28:25,880 --> 01:28:27,680 Speaker 1: and I'm not gonna get back in the street no 1850 01:28:27,840 --> 01:28:30,960 Speaker 1: matter how hard this shit get, because if I get 1851 01:28:31,000 --> 01:28:34,080 Speaker 1: back in the street, I'm not dedicated to the mission 1852 01:28:34,520 --> 01:28:37,560 Speaker 1: like I say I am.
