27
00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:32,000
Speaker 2: part of the town of Miami called Liberty City, which

28
00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:37,319
Speaker 2: is a lower socioeconomic part of this city. And from

29
00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 2: there I spreaded my roots out into Tallahassee, Florida, through

30
00:01:42,680 --> 00:01:46,640
Speaker 2: Florida and m University, and then I eventually settled here

31
00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:47,600

Speaker 1: as a kid. Come on now, talk to us.

40
00:02:14,600 --> 00:02:16,200
Speaker 2: Hey, I didn't know if y'all was ready.

41
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:17,560
Speaker 1: For all that.

42
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:19,919
Speaker 2: I thought that was gonna be part of your question.

43
00:02:20,080 --> 00:02:25,040
Speaker 2: Now you know what I mean. But I mean I

44
00:02:25,080 --> 00:02:28,920
Speaker 2: could go back and dress that, you know, to circle back.

45
00:02:29,760 --> 00:02:33,960
Speaker 2: I started out in Liberty City and we were in

46
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:38,920
Speaker 2: the small part of the Liberty City called the Poking

47
00:02:39,000 --> 00:02:41,560
Speaker 2: Bean Projects, that's the nickname. It was one of the

48
00:02:41,560 --> 00:02:45,520
Speaker 2: worst projects in Miami. And my grandmother was the candy

49
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,800
Speaker 2: lady there in the Poking Bean Projects. And as Shaw said,

50
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:54,080
Speaker 2: we we we we sold out of that house in

51
00:02:54,160 --> 00:03:00,519
Speaker 2: the project pickle pig feets, We sold clips you want

52
00:03:00,520 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 2: to call them sludgy water ice, you know, depending on

53
00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,360
Speaker 2: where you go in the country. I ain't got boogie now,

54
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:11,200
Speaker 2: I know people call it different things, but we called

55
00:03:11,360 --> 00:03:14,600
Speaker 2: we called them frozen cups. And then of course you

56
00:03:14,680 --> 00:03:17,720
Speaker 2: had all the nickel candies and penny cookies and all

57
00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:22,000
Speaker 2: that kind of stuff. So that's where I learned a

58
00:03:22,000 --> 00:03:24,760
Speaker 2: little business. You know. I learned how to deal with people,

59
00:03:24,880 --> 00:03:27,360
Speaker 2: treat people good, and you know, a matter of fact,

60
00:03:28,600 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 2: I learned how to help people because even though it

61
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:35,160
Speaker 2: was illegal, we all know that that's still helping the community.

62
00:03:35,440 --> 00:03:35,600
Speaker 3: You know.

63
00:03:36,400 --> 00:03:38,120
Speaker 1: But you're living in the food desk. Is though you're

64
00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:39,120
Speaker 1: living in the food desert.

65
00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 2: Now, yeah, exactly, you're in the food desert, and you know, so,

66
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:46,119
Speaker 2: you know, I learned a lot from that experience, and

67
00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:50,880
Speaker 2: you know, so many of those those attributes that I

68
00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,040
Speaker 2: had or I learned, I still carry with me today.

69
00:03:55,160 --> 00:03:56,840
Speaker 1: Now, Now, the interesting thing I bought you is that

70
00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,600
Speaker 1: you spent some time in the military.

71
00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:02,160
Speaker 2: Correct very brief.

72
00:04:02,360 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 1: Okay, yeah, Now I did get out.

73
00:04:04,440 --> 00:04:07,080
Speaker 2: That was my ticket out of the hood, right, And

74
00:04:07,080 --> 00:04:09,720
Speaker 2: my parents were poor. Well, I didn't think they could

75
00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:12,120
Speaker 2: afford college, and you know, I wasn't enough with here.

76
00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:15,320
Speaker 2: I didn't pay attention to all the financial aid stuff

77
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:18,679
Speaker 2: and the scholarship information. You know, I was busy chasing girls,

78
00:04:18,720 --> 00:04:21,479
Speaker 2: and I worked, and I kept a pocket full of

79
00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,960
Speaker 2: money and things like that, and that's that's what I

80
00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,680
Speaker 2: focused on. So I had to pay the piper, so

81
00:04:26,760 --> 00:04:27,119
Speaker 2: to speak.

82
00:04:27,320 --> 00:04:29,360
Speaker 1: Well, you know, the interesting thing about you is that

83
00:04:29,560 --> 00:04:32,520
Speaker 1: along the way in your conversation, you know, I just

84
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,159
Speaker 1: see your personality. You know, you never felt like where

85
00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:37,760
Speaker 1: you was at and the slang way with me, I

86
00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:39,840
Speaker 1: grew up in the hood. But all I have is

87
00:04:39,920 --> 00:04:42,599
Speaker 1: just great stories about the hood, you know. You know,

88
00:04:43,080 --> 00:04:46,520
Speaker 1: I can just laugh and laugh and laugh. And so

89
00:04:46,600 --> 00:04:49,479
Speaker 1: many times you just hear people when you go to

90
00:04:49,560 --> 00:04:52,600
Speaker 1: the media talk about the hood like it's dangerous. And

91
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:55,800
Speaker 1: I'm not saying any place is dangerous. Let's be real. Now,

92
00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:58,880
Speaker 1: they are celebrities who go on trips, come back in

93
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:02,400
Speaker 1: their houses robbed. Okay, so so know that. But what

94
00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:05,359
Speaker 1: I'm just telling you is that it just felt like

95
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:08,520
Speaker 1: a lot of love in your community. Talk about that.

96
00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:11,640
Speaker 2: Yeah, in our community, we had a lot of love.

97
00:05:11,760 --> 00:05:11,960
Speaker 3: You know.

98
00:05:12,440 --> 00:05:16,160
Speaker 2: We had adults that made sure that the children were

99
00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:19,480
Speaker 2: supposed to do what they were supposed to do. Sometimes

100
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:22,160
Speaker 2: you know, you see you know, miss Flag or mister

101
00:05:22,200 --> 00:05:24,960
Speaker 2: Flag whatever, you know, neighbor, they sitting on a porch,

102
00:05:25,000 --> 00:05:27,680
Speaker 2: they give you a couple of coins. You know, you

103
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,039
Speaker 2: went to your friend house and it was five thirty

104
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:33,280
Speaker 2: six o'clock. You just want to play ball, but Mama say, hey,

105
00:05:33,360 --> 00:05:35,560
Speaker 2: come on in here. Were about to eat first, right,

106
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:38,120
Speaker 2: you know. So, you know, I grew up in that

107
00:05:38,360 --> 00:05:42,039
Speaker 2: village concept. So even as an adult today, I have

108
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:46,799
Speaker 2: that village mentality that we're all together, We in this together.

109
00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:51,520
Speaker 2: And you know, many times poor people they don't realize

110
00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 2: they're poor. Everybody in the same boat, you know. So

111
00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:58,679
Speaker 2: that's the way I was raised. Most of my friends

112
00:05:58,720 --> 00:06:01,280
Speaker 2: were poor. We had a few peopeople that were outliers.

113
00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:03,960
Speaker 2: You know that that parents did really, really well but

114
00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:07,760
Speaker 2: the majority of my friends were poor. Even though you know,

115
00:06:07,839 --> 00:06:10,400
Speaker 2: let me be clear, we did move out of the projects,

116
00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:14,400
Speaker 2: but we lived a couple blocks away from the project.

117
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:17,280
Speaker 1: Right, We're still same black people. We're still so same

118
00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:18,920
Speaker 1: black people. You know, everybody's still black.

119
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,120
Speaker 2: Man. That happened to me, brother, everybody's still black. Everybody's

120
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 2: shooting bad. But we did. We did what we had

121
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:28,719
Speaker 2: to do to survive. And so even when I went

122
00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:32,360
Speaker 2: to college, anybody who knows me at FAMU, they would

123
00:06:32,360 --> 00:06:34,800
Speaker 2: tell you they knew me for two reasons. One, I

124
00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 2: had a little boy I was walking around campus with

125
00:06:37,200 --> 00:06:39,200
Speaker 2: all the time. You know, that was my son. I

126
00:06:39,240 --> 00:06:41,040
Speaker 2: was a teen father, and I took them to school

127
00:06:41,040 --> 00:06:42,920
Speaker 2: with me, so they knew me because of him. But

128
00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:45,880
Speaker 2: they also knew because my house was always open. I

129
00:06:45,960 --> 00:06:48,240
Speaker 2: knew how to cook, so I would cook for a

130
00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,480
Speaker 2: lot of my friends, and and people at fam you

131
00:06:51,800 --> 00:06:53,920
Speaker 2: that they knew that's what you do. You want to

132
00:06:53,960 --> 00:06:56,960
Speaker 2: have good time, go over there. You know we're gonna

133
00:06:57,000 --> 00:06:59,280
Speaker 2: be watching the game, we're gonna be grilling, We're gonna

134
00:06:59,279 --> 00:07:02,400
Speaker 2: do those things because I had again goes back to

135
00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:05,800
Speaker 2: that work ethic that I learned from grandmother and business,

136
00:07:05,880 --> 00:07:10,000
Speaker 2: so I was able to get the higher paying jobs

137
00:07:10,040 --> 00:07:12,720
Speaker 2: in college and most of my college friends, so I

138
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:16,520
Speaker 2: was able to afford to open my doors to different people.

139
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,720
Speaker 1: See isn't that story much better than the story you

140
00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:21,880
Speaker 1: opened up with. Now let's go to the entrepreneurial side.

141
00:07:21,960 --> 00:07:25,720
Speaker 1: You know when you first started getting into renovations and

142
00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:30,680
Speaker 1: home ownership, and that started in your college days, correct, Correct?

143
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:33,240
Speaker 2: That started in my college days. At twenty years old,

144
00:07:33,280 --> 00:07:36,840
Speaker 2: I bought my first piece of property. It was a duplex.

145
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:39,960
Speaker 2: I renovated one side and rented it out and that

146
00:07:40,040 --> 00:07:43,080
Speaker 2: tenant paid the mortgage for me. So, you know, I was,

147
00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:45,680
Speaker 2: I was a little ahead of my time, you know,

148
00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:48,240
Speaker 2: where most of my friends still lived at home with

149
00:07:48,320 --> 00:07:51,320
Speaker 2: their parents and a few might have had apartments here

150
00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:55,440
Speaker 2: and there. But I had a house, right house I was,

151
00:07:56,400 --> 00:07:59,080
Speaker 2: And I went to community college while I had my house.

152
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,560
Speaker 2: And then you know, I bought another house. And so

153
00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,120
Speaker 2: about twenty three years old, I was on my way

154
00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:08,120
Speaker 2: to just building a little real estate portfolio.

155
00:08:09,240 --> 00:08:12,600
Speaker 1: And you know, you know, you know, you know, you

156
00:08:12,600 --> 00:08:15,960
Speaker 1: know our friends now, you know, come on now, Michael,

157
00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:19,120
Speaker 1: come on brother, Look at your clothes, man, look at

158
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:21,560
Speaker 1: what you ride. Now, come on, man, what you doing, brother?

159
00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:23,640
Speaker 1: Spend some of that money on you? Talk to us

160
00:08:23,640 --> 00:08:25,080
Speaker 1: about that.

161
00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:27,720
Speaker 2: That's what I was about to get into. What a ride? No,

162
00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:31,360
Speaker 2: you know, one of the mistakes I made, and I

163
00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:33,920
Speaker 2: tell people all the time, you know, one of the

164
00:08:34,000 --> 00:08:37,920
Speaker 2: mistakes I made. I always had a new car every year.

165
00:08:38,040 --> 00:08:40,640
Speaker 2: I don't know, man, I probably had some kind of

166
00:08:40,960 --> 00:08:46,040
Speaker 2: fixed a fixation on that new car. Sent So I

167
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:49,280
Speaker 2: bought a new car every year, you know. And I

168
00:08:49,320 --> 00:08:51,240
Speaker 2: had a car, had trucks. I had a lot of

169
00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,840
Speaker 2: vehicles like that. Had I not made those poor decisions,

170
00:08:55,200 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 2: my portfolio would be would be better today, be a

171
00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:03,160
Speaker 2: lot stronger. So when I teach young people about, you know,

172
00:09:03,679 --> 00:09:07,839
Speaker 2: investment strategies and how to get rich quick, one of

173
00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:10,520
Speaker 2: the first things I tell them is, don't buy stupid stuff.

174
00:09:11,679 --> 00:09:14,320
Speaker 2: You know, you don't have to have the latest automobile

175
00:09:15,080 --> 00:09:19,520
Speaker 2: and the name brand clothes. Past that stuff up. You'll

176
00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:23,040
Speaker 2: pass that up and build your real estate portfolio. Don't

177
00:09:23,040 --> 00:09:25,160
Speaker 2: do stupid stuff. Don't go to the club and buy

178
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:29,680
Speaker 2: the bar trying to impress your frame. Those are the

179
00:09:29,720 --> 00:09:32,679
Speaker 2: things you do. Those are the steps you have to

180
00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,959
Speaker 2: take if you want to be rich in the end

181
00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,840
Speaker 2: or you want to have a nice real estate portfolio

182
00:09:40,160 --> 00:09:41,319
Speaker 2: where you can retire early.

183
00:09:41,840 --> 00:09:45,400
Speaker 1: But you know, but you know it, but you know,

184
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,439
Speaker 1: but that's a young person. Like you said, you're taking

185
00:09:48,440 --> 00:09:50,800
Speaker 1: care of your son and fam. You you know, you

186
00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:54,160
Speaker 1: got a small real estate portfolio. But the only advice

187
00:09:54,200 --> 00:09:56,720
Speaker 1: you got you gotta get that new cost smell. You

188
00:09:56,760 --> 00:09:59,720
Speaker 1: gotta get that new cost smell. And I understand that. Man,

189
00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,040
Speaker 1: when you you know something, when you come from that's

190
00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:07,280
Speaker 1: basically when you come from nothing, and you really, you know,

191
00:10:07,360 --> 00:10:09,600
Speaker 1: if something drives you to at least make you feel

192
00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,760
Speaker 1: good about yourself. So I'm not mad at you. I'm

193
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:13,679
Speaker 1: not mad at you. Weren't born with a self respoon

194
00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:16,680
Speaker 1: and so along the way, you have to be able

195
00:10:16,720 --> 00:10:23,000
Speaker 1: to satisfy your work ethic, your success. And those automobiles

196
00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:25,319
Speaker 1: were goals setters for you. That's how I saw.

197
00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:26,880
Speaker 2: It as because if.

198
00:10:26,760 --> 00:10:29,920
Speaker 1: You could buy that, that means that you're winning. And

199
00:10:29,960 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 1: if you're winning, that means that you can set new

200
00:10:32,720 --> 00:10:37,000
Speaker 1: goals because along the way, you never stop moving forward.

201
00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:38,720
Speaker 1: Talk to us about that, Michael.

202
00:10:39,520 --> 00:10:42,120
Speaker 2: Yeah, So you know, I had my cars, and I

203
00:10:42,160 --> 00:10:44,480
Speaker 2: worked a little bit in corporate. I worked at law

204
00:10:44,600 --> 00:10:49,360
Speaker 2: on law firms and going to work. I had a

205
00:10:49,440 --> 00:10:52,240
Speaker 2: nice car, but I tell you my car didn't line

206
00:10:52,320 --> 00:10:56,200
Speaker 2: up nearly as close to some of these lawyers I saw.

207
00:10:56,720 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 2: You know, I had a nice little Lissa on top

208
00:10:59,440 --> 00:11:01,520
Speaker 2: of the line, and you know I had a nice

209
00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,199
Speaker 2: truck and all that kind of stuff. But then cats

210
00:11:04,240 --> 00:11:07,640
Speaker 2: they drive it like ferraris and test the wolfsters, and

211
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:12,040
Speaker 2: you know, their admins are driving fancy cars. And I said,

212
00:11:12,760 --> 00:11:15,000
Speaker 2: I can't live my life like this. I need to

213
00:11:15,000 --> 00:11:17,920
Speaker 2: be on that level. What is it that they did

214
00:11:18,280 --> 00:11:21,760
Speaker 2: to get where they are? And how can I get there?

215
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:24,640
Speaker 2: That was my billion dollar question?

216
00:11:25,559 --> 00:11:26,439
Speaker 1: And what was your answer?

217
00:11:27,679 --> 00:11:31,559
Speaker 2: I knew through education I can do it. I knew

218
00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 2: through education I can do it. And that's why I

219
00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,000
Speaker 2: ended up at Florida and M University. And you know,

220
00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:42,280
Speaker 2: I didn't necessarily take the road because my goal was

221
00:11:42,760 --> 00:11:48,440
Speaker 2: to go and do architecture, finish architecture, and be a

222
00:11:48,480 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 2: real estate attorney. And that's how I was going to

223
00:11:51,320 --> 00:11:55,360
Speaker 2: get rich. That was my goal. And I ran into

224
00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:58,800
Speaker 2: one of my great professors. He was coming home from

225
00:11:58,840 --> 00:12:02,640
Speaker 2: his PhD up in Indiana, so we were only a

226
00:12:02,760 --> 00:12:06,240
Speaker 2: year a year and a half apart in age, but

227
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:09,280
Speaker 2: he was finishing his PHDN. He was my professor, and

228
00:12:09,760 --> 00:12:11,319
Speaker 2: he asked me. He said, why do you want to

229
00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:14,160
Speaker 2: go to law school? I said, because I want to

230
00:12:14,160 --> 00:12:15,679
Speaker 2: make some money. He said, well, do you want to

231
00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:17,400
Speaker 2: make money? Well, at first I told him I want

232
00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,480
Speaker 2: to make a difference. You know, we never tell a

233
00:12:19,520 --> 00:12:21,720
Speaker 2: person the real truth. You can try to.

234
00:12:21,640 --> 00:12:25,200
Speaker 1: Get I want to make a difference a law and order,

235
00:12:25,240 --> 00:12:29,199
Speaker 1: a difference save my people, save my people, to.

236
00:12:29,160 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 2: Be politically correct. He said, so do you want to

237
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:35,560
Speaker 2: make a difference do you want to make some money?

238
00:12:36,040 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 2: I said, well, I kind of want to do both.

239
00:12:39,160 --> 00:12:40,920
Speaker 2: He said, well, I'm gonna tell you. He said, unless

240
00:12:40,960 --> 00:12:43,240
Speaker 2: you at the top of your law school, you're not

241
00:12:43,280 --> 00:12:46,719
Speaker 2: gonna be Johnny Cochran. He said, you're gonna end up

242
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,680
Speaker 2: down there at the county working one hundred plus cases,

243
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:54,240
Speaker 2: one hundred hours a week, and you're gonna be overwhelmed.

244
00:12:54,760 --> 00:12:58,360
Speaker 2: He said, you can become a college professor, and you

245
00:12:58,400 --> 00:13:00,960
Speaker 2: can make the same amount of money and work half

246
00:13:00,960 --> 00:13:05,679
Speaker 2: amount of time. And and I did not believe him,

247
00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:07,600
Speaker 2: but he gave me his book. He say, take this

248
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:11,280
Speaker 2: book and look at it. It's called Occupational Outlook Handbook.

249
00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:14,440
Speaker 2: I took that book Home. But that book by the

250
00:13:14,480 --> 00:13:16,920
Speaker 2: stickers and yellow pages. I know I'm telling my age here.

251
00:13:17,440 --> 00:13:20,600
Speaker 2: You know, hopefully all your listeners know what the yellow

252
00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:24,080
Speaker 2: pages are, but you know that book was sticking to

253
00:13:24,160 --> 00:13:28,480
Speaker 2: yellow page. But any profession you can imagine if you

254
00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,760
Speaker 2: looked it up, it gave you all the information for

255
00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:36,720
Speaker 2: that particular profession. And that was the greatest probably book

256
00:13:36,760 --> 00:13:40,160
Speaker 2: I ever read. And that's it was. It was just

257
00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:40,880
Speaker 2: life changing.

258
00:13:41,480 --> 00:13:41,840
Speaker 1: Wow.

259
00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:45,200
Speaker 2: And that's why I decided to do a career in

260
00:13:45,400 --> 00:13:47,440
Speaker 2: education versus one in law.

261
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:54,120
Speaker 1: Cool that thought because the story of him becoming a

262
00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,800
Speaker 1: Lows contractor. When we get back now, this personality has

263

Speaker 1: Tell us about that, Michael.

275
00:14:50,560 --> 00:14:57,040
Speaker 2: Your company, well, my company was born out of some

276
00:14:57,160 --> 00:15:00,400
Speaker 2: things I learned as a use. When I was young,

277
00:15:00,600 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 2: I went to work with my grandfather. My grandfather was

278
00:15:05,360 --> 00:15:09,840
Speaker 2: the head groundskeeper for or the head maintenance guy for

279
00:15:10,120 --> 00:15:16,560
Speaker 2: the in Palm Beach where all the all the rich

280
00:15:16,800 --> 00:15:21,200
Speaker 2: folks were, and so on saturdays, that's how we get

281
00:15:21,240 --> 00:15:24,640
Speaker 2: my little hustle money is. I would go to work

282
00:15:24,680 --> 00:15:28,160
Speaker 2: with him and he would teach me how to fix

283
00:15:28,240 --> 00:15:31,280
Speaker 2: on houses or work on houses. Him and my great uncle.

284
00:15:31,640 --> 00:15:33,840
Speaker 2: You know, they worked me all day man, and you know,

285
00:15:33,920 --> 00:15:37,160
Speaker 2: from son up to sundown, give me ten dollars. But

286
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:39,440
Speaker 2: I was happy. I could go to the moves and

287
00:15:39,760 --> 00:15:41,120
Speaker 2: hang out with my cousins and.

288
00:15:41,040 --> 00:15:45,480
Speaker 1: All that you are telling you, you give you work

289
00:15:45,480 --> 00:15:50,800
Speaker 1: a black kid today, that's up and down, and they

290
00:15:50,840 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 1: will be fighting you.

291
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:56,280
Speaker 2: Right. There had to be some kind of child labor

292
00:15:56,360 --> 00:15:57,280
Speaker 2: law by lot.

293
00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:04,480
Speaker 1: Up Continue, sir, continue.

294
00:16:05,040 --> 00:16:07,800
Speaker 2: So that's how I learned how to work on houses.

295
00:16:07,840 --> 00:16:10,760
Speaker 2: And then you know, my parents they would always let

296
00:16:10,800 --> 00:16:12,920
Speaker 2: me test stuff up in the house and fix it.

297
00:16:13,320 --> 00:16:16,600
Speaker 2: You know, my dad was of the notion that if

298
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,520
Speaker 2: it's not broke, we're not gonna call anybody. We're gonna

299
00:16:19,520 --> 00:16:22,480
Speaker 2: try to fix it first, you know, and it's gonna

300
00:16:22,480 --> 00:16:24,800
Speaker 2: be good and broke by the time we actually have

301
00:16:24,840 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 2: to call somebody. So I learned. I learned how to

302
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,880
Speaker 2: fix a lot of things at a young age. So

303
00:16:32,400 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 2: that's how I was able to just you know, dive

304
00:16:35,320 --> 00:16:38,480
Speaker 2: right into the real estate thing. So you know, as

305
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:42,360
Speaker 2: we continue along, I I would buy rental properties. Every

306
00:16:42,360 --> 00:16:45,240
Speaker 2: few years, I'd buy another one, another one as I

307
00:16:45,320 --> 00:16:49,200
Speaker 2: went through my career as an educator, and then eventually

308
00:16:49,240 --> 00:16:52,720
Speaker 2: I rose to the position of assistant principle and I

309
00:16:52,760 --> 00:16:55,960
Speaker 2: was making more money on my rental properties then as

310
00:16:56,000 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 2: an assistant principal. So you know, many days I would

311
00:16:59,880 --> 00:17:03,840
Speaker 2: be working at night painting, putting in floors, you know,

312
00:17:03,960 --> 00:17:06,879
Speaker 2: renovating kitchens, things like that, and then I come to

313
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:10,680
Speaker 2: teach school kids the next day, you know, coach wrestling,

314
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:14,200
Speaker 2: coach football. But I'd be I'd be doing all those things.

315
00:17:14,359 --> 00:17:18,480
Speaker 2: And that's how I really got into the business. And

316
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,159
Speaker 2: it came to a point where I made a choice,

317
00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,760
Speaker 2: and you know, I decided to leave the school system,

318
00:17:25,240 --> 00:17:28,480
Speaker 2: and that's how I ended up starting Woodward Property Group.

319
00:17:28,760 --> 00:17:32,520
Speaker 2: I left just to manage my business, my my properties,

320
00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:36,400
Speaker 2: and then I would through social media just start posting

321
00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:40,080
Speaker 2: jobs and people start calling it, you know, like hey,

322
00:17:40,160 --> 00:17:42,199
Speaker 2: I saw that you did this job on one of

323
00:17:42,200 --> 00:17:45,280
Speaker 2: your properties. You know, you renovate that kitchen? Can you

324
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:47,360
Speaker 2: do mine? Can you do my bathroom?

325
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:47,720
Speaker 3: Like that?

326
00:17:47,840 --> 00:17:50,880
Speaker 2: And that's that's exactly how it started.

327
00:17:51,160 --> 00:17:56,920
Speaker 1: Just you know, you want to loose top contractors. How

328
00:17:56,920 --> 00:18:00,159
Speaker 1: did that come about? Because you know so many you know,

329
00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:04,800
Speaker 1: minority businesses are trying to seek a relationship with companies

330
00:18:04,920 --> 00:18:08,040
Speaker 1: like that. How were you able to pull that off?

331
00:18:09,160 --> 00:18:11,679
Speaker 2: Man? This is funny. I have to set this one

332
00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,080
Speaker 2: up for you because this what involves you. Actually you

333
00:18:15,680 --> 00:18:18,480
Speaker 2: didn't even know. And I found this out today when

334
00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:22,480
Speaker 2: I send out the marketing. I have a buddy and

335
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:26,040
Speaker 2: I'm gonna drop his name. His name's Keith Fowler. Keith

336
00:18:26,080 --> 00:18:31,800
Speaker 2: Fowler is a contractor. And you know he was good

337
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:36,000
Speaker 2: at fixing stuff or renovating. He was better than me

338
00:18:36,160 --> 00:18:38,840
Speaker 2: because he did this. That's all he's done all his life. See,

339
00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:42,080
Speaker 2: I did this part time for twenty years, but he

340
00:18:42,119 --> 00:18:45,239
Speaker 2: did it all his life. So anyway, I ended up

341
00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,720
Speaker 2: doing some work for this guy that was a marketing

342
00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:53,040
Speaker 2: district director for los and he liked my work on

343
00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,919
Speaker 2: his house and he said, hey, don't you want to

344
00:18:55,920 --> 00:18:58,159
Speaker 2: come work for loads? I say, I tried to get on,

345
00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,760
Speaker 2: but you know, y'all never called me up. You said

346
00:19:01,800 --> 00:19:04,439
Speaker 2: you was full. I wanted to be installed. He said, oh, no,

347
00:19:04,440 --> 00:19:06,000
Speaker 2: you don't want to be an installer. You want to

348
00:19:06,000 --> 00:19:09,760
Speaker 2: do our kitchen in the bathroom design. I said, okay,

00:19:18,040 --> 00:19:20,960
Speaker 2: do nothing. But they called me up. Long story short,

353
00:19:21,000 --> 00:19:23,679
Speaker 2: they called me up, and I go down in an

354
00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:26,760
Speaker 2: interview and the guy asked me, not him, but another

00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:27,440
Speaker 1: know we have a few minutes left, but I gotta

414
00:22:27,560 --> 00:22:32,680
Speaker 1: let everybody here about how you take students to HPCUS

415
00:22:32,960 --> 00:22:36,160
Speaker 1: and you educate people about the students and young people

416
00:22:36,160 --> 00:22:39,720
Speaker 1: about the opportunities on campus. Out your doll out your pocket.

417
00:22:39,920 --> 00:22:41,480
Speaker 1: Tell us about that as we exit the.

418
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:45,440
Speaker 2: Interview, Sir, Yeah, what I did was every year of

419
00:22:45,560 --> 00:22:49,160
Speaker 2: my twenty year career in the education, I took students

420
00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:54,440
Speaker 2: on college tours. We took students on summer programs which

421
00:22:54,440 --> 00:22:58,560
Speaker 2: would occur on different college campuses, and we teach a math,

422
00:22:58,680 --> 00:23:02,080
Speaker 2: science technology so STEM programs. But one of the things

423
00:23:02,119 --> 00:23:06,600
Speaker 2: I've learned from my tutoring service was that a lot

424
00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:11,920
Speaker 2: of students need to set foot on campus to understand.

425
00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:15,520
Speaker 2: Because I taught at Northcross High School, right I had

426
00:23:15,600 --> 00:23:20,080
Speaker 2: students that had never been to the AU Center, and

427
00:23:20,119 --> 00:23:23,320
Speaker 2: that was just unimaginable to me. But then I can

428
00:23:23,400 --> 00:23:27,400
Speaker 2: look back at my past being from Miami, I didn't

429
00:23:27,440 --> 00:23:30,639
Speaker 2: think college was possible for me. Yes, Fam, you came

430
00:23:30,720 --> 00:23:32,840
Speaker 2: down and they played in the Orange Bowl, and we

431
00:23:32,920 --> 00:23:35,199
Speaker 2: had the band that you used tocumb and had a

432
00:23:35,240 --> 00:23:38,240
Speaker 2: parade and all that. But going to college was just

433
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:42,040
Speaker 2: a dream and college was far from me from Miami. Fam,

434
00:23:42,160 --> 00:23:45,119
Speaker 2: you is, you know, a six eight hour drive from Miami.

435
00:23:46,040 --> 00:23:49,399
Speaker 2: But these folks from North Cross not going to the

436
00:23:49,560 --> 00:23:55,239
Speaker 2: h I mean the Au Center thirty minutes down. So

437
00:23:55,520 --> 00:23:59,040
Speaker 2: we started off taking them there and then as we

438
00:23:59,160 --> 00:24:01,520
Speaker 2: grew with our men were in programmed. We met with

439
00:24:01,600 --> 00:24:04,560
Speaker 2: the kids every Saturday and Sunday and we groomed them

440
00:24:04,600 --> 00:24:07,800
Speaker 2: for college so that their choices would be college, military,

441
00:24:07,920 --> 00:24:10,879
Speaker 2: or trade school. Those were their their choices. So we

442
00:24:10,960 --> 00:24:13,600
Speaker 2: prepared them from middle school all the way through high school,

443
00:24:13,920 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 2: and we met with them in the fall and in

444
00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:19,320
Speaker 2: the summer. We took them to football games, we took

445
00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:23,040
Speaker 2: them on college tours, and you know, we had a

446
00:24:23,119 --> 00:24:27,960
Speaker 2: ninety nine point nine percent success rate. Every kid went

447
00:24:28,080 --> 00:24:31,879
Speaker 2: to college for our program, and the only one that

448
00:24:31,960 --> 00:24:35,600
Speaker 2: didn't go to college they went to culinary school. But

449
00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:41,639
Speaker 2: all of our kids went to congradulate. So that's what

450
00:24:41,680 --> 00:24:46,800
Speaker 2: I did, and I've given every spring break and every

451
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,879
Speaker 2: summer as an educated to those kids. We've had some

452
00:24:50,920 --> 00:24:52,200
Speaker 2: great times, some great buses.

453
00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:56,040
