But I see he's saying, 50 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:48,240 Speaker 2: you know, immediately you want to go before Congress. You 51 00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 2: want to get money for Israel as well as Ukraine. 52 00:02:51,360 --> 00:02:54,200 Speaker 2: So you know, my overall view with those things is, 53 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:55,359 Speaker 2: at the end of the day, war. 54 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 3: Is always bad. 55 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:59,720 Speaker 2: Geopolitical tensions are always bad for the for the stock market, 56 00:02:59,720 --> 00:03:03,160 Speaker 2: for the overall economy, right, And I think obviously when 57 00:03:03,200 --> 00:03:05,680 Speaker 2: he goes before Congress and he's asking for more money, 58 00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:09,000 Speaker 2: that's just a function of saying, the US debt is 59 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:11,800 Speaker 2: only continuing to grow. We had like thirty three trillion, 60 00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:14,240 Speaker 2: like ten years ago, it was like ten trillion, you 61 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:16,959 Speaker 2: know what I mean. So the idea of like three 62 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:19,560 Speaker 2: xing over the past ten years is crazy, and that's 63 00:03:19,639 --> 00:03:22,720 Speaker 2: just gonna have a ripple effect for the years to 64 00:03:22,760 --> 00:03:25,600 Speaker 2: come on. Whether that's the tax rate of what you know, 65 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:28,720 Speaker 2: other different rates in general might be. 66 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 3: So at the end of the day, I think, you. 67 00:03:31,040 --> 00:03:35,000 Speaker 2: Know, war's never good unless unless you own you know, 68 00:03:35,040 --> 00:03:39,000 Speaker 2: some of those you know, defense sector names, et cetera, 69 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 2: oil names, et cetera. 70 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:43,560 Speaker 4: Yeah, I think it's interesting that I think that they know. 71 00:03:43,720 --> 00:03:45,680 Speaker 5: I think the politicians haven't fully. 72 00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:49,680 Speaker 4: I don't think they have a good feel of the 73 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:53,080 Speaker 4: temperature and the climate just from the posts like we 74 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:57,840 Speaker 4: just we've been posting about just news topics, and I 75 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 4: think there's a very anti war sentiment at. 76 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:02,280 Speaker 3: Least are followers. 77 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:06,440 Speaker 4: Yes, right, it's very anti war sediment. And it's a 78 00:04:06,600 --> 00:04:12,080 Speaker 4: very anti give money to other country sediment that has 79 00:04:12,120 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 4: been going on. And then like when I put the 80 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:16,760 Speaker 4: post up that one hundred billion dollars was requested, a 81 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:18,200 Speaker 4: lot some people didn't believe it. They're like, no, you 82 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 4: made a mistake. It's a hundred million. I'm like, no, 83 00:04:20,200 --> 00:04:23,200 Speaker 4: it's really a billion. So today he actually talked about 84 00:04:23,240 --> 00:04:27,160 Speaker 4: that today that he wants to, you know, get money 85 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:30,120 Speaker 4: for Ukraine and for Israel. And like I said, they said, 86 00:04:30,279 --> 00:04:32,640 Speaker 4: they're talking about one hundred one hundred million dollar package. 87 00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 4: So what are your thoughts for when people, you know, 88 00:04:36,920 --> 00:04:40,040 Speaker 4: they a lot of people are concerned because they're like, Okay, 89 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:41,840 Speaker 4: we have student loans. 90 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:44,920 Speaker 5: You denied student loan. 91 00:04:46,560 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 4: Debt relief on a on a wide scale from the 92 00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 4: from on the federal from the federal court situation. But 93 00:04:52,400 --> 00:04:54,720 Speaker 4: now we can go into one hundred million, one hundred 94 00:04:54,760 --> 00:04:59,080 Speaker 4: billion dollars to fund outside wars that the average person 95 00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 4: doesn't see in any benefit in doing that. 96 00:05:02,160 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 3: So what's your thoughts in that? Nah, that's crazy. 97 00:05:05,960 --> 00:05:09,719 Speaker 2: So we you know, we don't really go too heavy 98 00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,720 Speaker 2: into politics, but I shared a sentiment where a lot 99 00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 2: of people have to ask the question, like where's this 100 00:05:15,839 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 2: money going and what's the benefit? 101 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:18,159 Speaker 3: Right? 102 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 2: Like the way that they're going to try to pull 103 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,000 Speaker 2: the wool over certain people's eyes is they're gonna say, well, 104 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 2: you know, we are trying to maintain or I think 105 00:05:28,560 --> 00:05:33,000 Speaker 2: they use a word like for national security. We need 106 00:05:34,000 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 2: Ukraine not to. 107 00:05:34,760 --> 00:05:37,200 Speaker 3: Be taken over, we need Israel or to this that, and. 108 00:05:37,120 --> 00:05:40,159 Speaker 2: I think that national security we don't really understand that. 109 00:05:40,279 --> 00:05:42,480 Speaker 2: So the average person, I'm not even gonna say the 110 00:05:42,520 --> 00:05:45,800 Speaker 2: average person, just anybody for the most part, don't know 111 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:46,600 Speaker 2: what that means. 112 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:46,840 Speaker 3: Right. 113 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,640 Speaker 2: I remember when Silinski came before Congress and at this moment, 114 00:05:50,680 --> 00:05:54,320 Speaker 2: we had gave Brown them like thirty billion, and he like, Yo, 115 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,120 Speaker 2: that's not enough, and we like, wait a minute, bro, 116 00:05:57,279 --> 00:06:00,279 Speaker 2: Like and so the average person is like, one, why 117 00:06:00,279 --> 00:06:02,760 Speaker 2: do we have to always be the person that kind 118 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:05,760 Speaker 2: of interject and say, hey, let's take this side of 119 00:06:05,800 --> 00:06:08,120 Speaker 2: that side. But there's so many other things that we 120 00:06:08,240 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 2: need to do with that type of money, and for me, 121 00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:14,320 Speaker 2: I don't think giving bread to none of them is 122 00:06:14,360 --> 00:06:17,039 Speaker 2: the right answer. However, I'm not privy to the type 123 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:20,000 Speaker 2: of national and security conversation that they might be having 124 00:06:20,000 --> 00:06:21,080 Speaker 2: in an oval office. 125 00:06:22,160 --> 00:06:24,360 Speaker 5: So what do you what are you invested in right now? 126 00:06:24,400 --> 00:06:26,440 Speaker 4: I know you know you you you worked on Wall 127 00:06:26,480 --> 00:06:29,560 Speaker 4: Street and you have the series and we talked to 128 00:06:29,560 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 4: your children in the back of the car about investing 129 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 4: in stocks and stuff like that.

So the 335 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:57,320 Speaker 4: crazy thing is this was probably, uh, it was the 336 00:16:57,400 --> 00:17:00,920 Speaker 4: year that Donovan Mitchell got drafted. I forgot what, Yeah 337 00:17:01,000 --> 00:17:07,119 Speaker 4: that was, but that was probably maybe like twenty spider, Yeah, 338 00:17:07,920 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 4: twenty fourteen or something like that. Yeah, it was a 339 00:17:12,880 --> 00:17:16,640 Speaker 4: while ago, but so I know I know his family. 340 00:17:16,640 --> 00:17:19,520 Speaker 4: I know Donald Mitchell's family, right, So I went to 341 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,639 Speaker 4: I went to It was in the guard of the 342 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 4: draft that year, was in Madison Square Garden. 343 00:17:24,480 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 5: I was already a professional. 344 00:17:25,640 --> 00:17:28,920 Speaker 4: I was already in my twenties working as a financial advisor, 345 00:17:29,680 --> 00:17:32,000 Speaker 4: and I went to the draft and they had a sweet. 346 00:17:32,040 --> 00:17:34,440 Speaker 4: His family had a suite in the draft. I think 347 00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:36,439 Speaker 4: it might have been a bark plays, but regardless that 348 00:17:36,520 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 4: we had a sweet. Right, So I was in the 349 00:17:38,040 --> 00:17:43,480 Speaker 4: suite and we have a mutual family friend where hit 350 00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:47,880 Speaker 4: one of his family friends is a good friend of 351 00:17:47,960 --> 00:17:52,399 Speaker 4: me and Troy as well. So their son went to 352 00:17:53,840 --> 00:17:56,920 Speaker 4: I think he went to Stanford. He went to wanted 353 00:17:56,960 --> 00:17:59,560 Speaker 4: to know he actually was high school. He went to 354 00:17:59,640 --> 00:18:02,679 Speaker 4: like a private high school, right, it is very good 355 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 4: high school in New York. And I met one of 356 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:09,520 Speaker 4: his friends. So this kid was like seventeen years old. 357 00:18:10,080 --> 00:18:12,760 Speaker 4: I'm like twenty six, twenty five years old. He's like 358 00:18:13,560 --> 00:18:18,000 Speaker 4: seventeen years years old. And we was having a conversation. 359 00:18:18,520 --> 00:18:22,160 Speaker 4: White kid, and he was telling me about ethereal. He 360 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 4: was the first person to ever tell me about ethereu. 361 00:18:25,920 --> 00:18:28,720 Speaker 4: This is this coin called ethereal. He was explaining it 362 00:18:28,760 --> 00:18:30,320 Speaker 4: to me. He was explaining to me how it worked 363 00:18:30,320 --> 00:18:34,679 Speaker 4: because at the time I heard a bitcoin. He was 364 00:18:34,680 --> 00:18:37,720 Speaker 4: telling me about extereum and he was telling me how. 365 00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:40,680 Speaker 4: Now this is the part that's interesting. He's seventeen years old. 366 00:18:40,720 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 4: And he just graduated from high school. So he was like, yeah, 367 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:49,720 Speaker 4: you know, my parents they gave me one hundred thousand 368 00:18:49,720 --> 00:18:53,159 Speaker 4: dollars to invest. And he was like, I put thee 369 00:18:53,200 --> 00:18:57,840 Speaker 4: hundred thousand into ethereum, turned one hundred thousand into a million. 370 00:18:58,400 --> 00:19:00,840 Speaker 3: And he was like, now I'm trying to start a 371 00:19:00,880 --> 00:19:01,720 Speaker 3: hedge funtm. 372 00:19:03,040 --> 00:19:08,520 Speaker 4: Sventeen, seventeen years old, right, so that I'll never forget that. 373 00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:13,159 Speaker 4: I'll never forget that conversation because that just put it 374 00:19:13,200 --> 00:19:14,159 Speaker 4: in perspective for me. 375 00:19:14,600 --> 00:19:14,719 Speaker 3: Bro. 376 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:18,160 Speaker 5: That put come on back for me, like like. 377 00:19:18,119 --> 00:19:21,560 Speaker 3: That Mama never even heard of a hands fun at seventeen, Bro. 378 00:19:22,200 --> 00:19:23,720 Speaker 5: So there's there's so many different levels. 379 00:19:23,800 --> 00:19:26,840 Speaker 4: So a the fact that at seventeen he even has 380 00:19:26,960 --> 00:19:30,600 Speaker 4: enough awareness to even be interested in investing, that's one thing. 381 00:19:31,600 --> 00:19:34,359 Speaker 4: Seventeen he's in a position to get one hundred thousand 382 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,600 Speaker 4: dollars from his family to invest, because if they give 383 00:19:36,640 --> 00:19:38,439 Speaker 4: you one hundred thousand dollars to invest, that means that 384 00:19:38,480 --> 00:19:42,800 Speaker 4: they have that's not even that's nothing like no, that's 385 00:19:42,840 --> 00:19:46,199 Speaker 4: that's the second thing. The third thing is that he 386 00:19:46,280 --> 00:19:49,800 Speaker 4: has enough information to know what to invest in, right. 387 00:19:50,080 --> 00:19:51,640 Speaker 5: And then the fourth thing is. 388 00:19:51,600 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 4: That he's aware that he turned Most seventeen year olds, 389 00:19:56,160 --> 00:19:57,760 Speaker 4: you make a million dollars when you're. 390 00:19:57,600 --> 00:19:59,840 Speaker 5: Seventeen years old, you're going crazy. 391 00:20:00,000 --> 00:20:02,560 Speaker 4: He understands that that's just the beginning level, and he's 392 00:20:02,560 --> 00:20:04,640 Speaker 4: already on to the next thing, talking about he wants 393 00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:05,400 Speaker 4: to start a hedge funt. 394 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:08,520 Speaker 5: Yeah, So that just blew my mind. 395 00:20:09,000 --> 00:20:11,440 Speaker 4: And I actually invested in Etherorium shortly after he told 396 00:20:11,440 --> 00:20:11,760 Speaker 4: me that. 397 00:20:11,920 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 5: But that just blew my mind. 398 00:20:13,359 --> 00:20:17,159 Speaker 4: That was like I never had conversations like that with 399 00:20:17,240 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 4: anybody in high school or anybody in life up until 400 00:20:20,000 --> 00:20:20,520 Speaker 4: that point. 401 00:20:20,880 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 5: And the first time I'm learned about this is a 402 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:23,840 Speaker 5: seventeen year old. 403 00:20:23,840 --> 00:20:27,040 Speaker 4: So it's like a lot of times because I went 404 00:20:27,080 --> 00:20:29,600 Speaker 4: to public school and private school. I went to public 405 00:20:29,600 --> 00:20:31,240 Speaker 4: school my whole entire life, and I went to private 406 00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:33,199 Speaker 4: school in my last two years of high school. 407 00:20:33,560 --> 00:20:39,080 Speaker 5: And difference is it's like the wealth gap is so disturbing. 408 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:42,680 Speaker 4: For what I realized is that we don't even realize 409 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:46,679 Speaker 4: how far we are behind because it's a very segregated country. 410 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:46,920 Speaker 5: Right. 411 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 4: You usually live in communities similar everybody's similar to yourself, 412 00:20:50,600 --> 00:20:53,679 Speaker 4: your circle is similar. So if you make eighty thousand 413 00:20:53,680 --> 00:20:57,360 Speaker 4: dollars a year, you're communicating with people that make eighty. 414 00:20:57,200 --> 00:20:58,440 Speaker 3: Thousand dollars a year or less. 415 00:20:59,119 --> 00:21:04,399 Speaker 4: Right, all of your problems, issues, aspirations, you'll kind of 416 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:07,960 Speaker 4: have the same. And you create your own algorithm, right, 417 00:21:08,000 --> 00:21:11,240 Speaker 4: you create your own life algorithm where you're you're not 418 00:21:11,320 --> 00:21:15,520 Speaker 4: aware of anything else, really, So three maths down the road, 419 00:21:16,080 --> 00:21:18,760 Speaker 4: people that are making ten million dollars, five million dollars, 420 00:21:18,760 --> 00:21:23,520 Speaker 4: eight million dollars, you're not even aware that this situation 421 00:21:23,640 --> 00:21:26,399 Speaker 4: is even really happening. You have no you have no 422 00:21:27,000 --> 00:21:30,280 Speaker 4: real inner workings of any of that. Right, So it's 423 00:21:30,320 --> 00:21:35,600 Speaker 4: like you don't even really realize how far you are behind, 424 00:21:36,119 --> 00:21:39,520 Speaker 4: because you never really get a real perspective of a. 425 00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:43,080 Speaker 3: Different world until you're in that world. But most people never. 426 00:21:42,920 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 4: Get an opportunity to even be so that you're consume 427 00:21:47,560 --> 00:21:49,560 Speaker 4: with the world that they're in. But like I said, 428 00:21:49,600 --> 00:21:51,960 Speaker 4: you have an interesting perspective because you you're in that 429 00:21:52,119 --> 00:21:54,680 Speaker 4: you're in that world from the Ivy League perspective. And 430 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 4: then for Wall Streets and not now, I would like 431 00:21:56,440 --> 00:22:00,160 Speaker 4: to hear your your perspective on Wall Street. 432 00:22:00,359 --> 00:22:02,879 Speaker 3: Working as a young black man and what did that 433 00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:05,080 Speaker 3: look like? Bro? 434 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:08,160 Speaker 2: Everything you said just hit home because when we think 435 00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:11,879 Speaker 2: about the wealth GAP's only. 436 00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:14,160 Speaker 3: Exacerbated by the exposure gap. 437 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:19,439 Speaker 2: Like like you said, that kid had the information, not 438 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:21,560 Speaker 2: only just the capital, right, but he had the information 439 00:22:21,600 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 2: because it's it's a mods in the hood that could 440 00:22:23,520 --> 00:22:26,439 Speaker 2: get a hundred racks easy, but they don't have the 441 00:22:27,160 --> 00:22:29,919 Speaker 2: easy A lot of them here for about twenty to 442 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:30,920 Speaker 2: forty on the PPP. 443 00:22:31,160 --> 00:22:34,359 Speaker 3: So it's the same. It's the same thing, right, the 444 00:22:34,400 --> 00:22:35,800 Speaker 3: whole hood hit for the PPP. 445 00:22:36,280 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 2: But the idea of actually now having the exposure to 446 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 2: attaining that information, to now taking that capital to the 447 00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 2: next level. 448 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,480 Speaker 3: And so that's why I said, when I got. 449 00:22:46,359 --> 00:22:50,880 Speaker 2: Him at my school, it was crazy, right, because now 450 00:22:50,920 --> 00:22:55,359 Speaker 2: I'm exposed to so many different avenues and thought processes 451 00:22:55,359 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 2: when it came to attaining wealth. People that are running 452 00:22:58,800 --> 00:23:01,280 Speaker 2: you know, websites like well okay, people that are working 453 00:23:01,320 --> 00:23:05,919 Speaker 2: on startups this said eighteen. Right, it's a different conversation 454 00:23:06,240 --> 00:23:08,959 Speaker 2: when you're seeing people, you know, Asian kids that are 455 00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:09,800 Speaker 2: coding and stuff. 456 00:23:10,200 --> 00:23:11,480 Speaker 3: What the hell is that? You know? 457 00:23:11,520 --> 00:23:14,120 Speaker 2: I mean, the coolest kids for us was guys who 458 00:23:14,160 --> 00:23:16,879 Speaker 2: getting the girls, the athletes. You might be cool, you 459 00:23:16,880 --> 00:23:20,320 Speaker 2: get a nice car, But now it's a different conversation. 460 00:23:20,480 --> 00:23:22,280 Speaker 3: Guys are working on apps, et cetera. 461 00:23:22,600 --> 00:23:24,960 Speaker 2: And so the crazy thing when I got to Wall Street, 462 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:26,639 Speaker 2: it's like, oh, in my mind, I made it. I 463 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:30,199 Speaker 2: felt like an athlete. But I just realized that it 464 00:23:30,320 --> 00:23:34,320 Speaker 2: was a small stepping stone to what else the world 465 00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,399 Speaker 2: had to offer. Because you know, I got on the 466 00:23:36,440 --> 00:23:39,240 Speaker 2: desk in twenty twelve and Morgan Stanley and I was 467 00:23:39,280 --> 00:23:41,920 Speaker 2: the first black guy on this trading desk in the history. 468 00:23:41,960 --> 00:23:45,639 Speaker 2: That's crazy twenty twelve. But the greatest thing once again 469 00:23:45,680 --> 00:23:46,520 Speaker 2: about the. 470 00:23:46,240 --> 00:23:48,400 Speaker 5: First person Morgan Stanley's trading desk. 471 00:23:48,640 --> 00:23:49,639 Speaker 3: No, no, no, no, no, no no. 472 00:23:50,000 --> 00:23:52,760 Speaker 2: On my particular desk, I was on the high Yeld desk, 473 00:23:54,480 --> 00:23:56,359 Speaker 2: on the High Yeo desk, it was other brothers on there, 474 00:23:56,400 --> 00:24:00,199 Speaker 2: you know, one guy over there Ig of Muni's and 475 00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:03,840 Speaker 2: one dude upstairs and in rates and uh yeah yeah, 476 00:24:03,840 --> 00:24:08,720 Speaker 2: but no on my particular I yield leverage loans distressed. 477 00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,840 Speaker 3: I was the first and working full time. They might 478 00:24:12,880 --> 00:24:14,640 Speaker 3: have had one that was an intern, but that wasn't 479 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 3: you know. 480 00:24:15,240 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 2: But now now to really talk about the exposure, because 481 00:24:19,320 --> 00:24:21,760 Speaker 2: if anybody's ever been on the trading desk, you're side 482 00:24:21,800 --> 00:24:25,119 Speaker 2: by side, back and back to back to people and 483 00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:27,840 Speaker 2: it's just long rolls and everybody got you know, six 484 00:24:27,880 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 2: computer screens and three to four whatever. Right, And the 485 00:24:31,359 --> 00:24:35,200 Speaker 2: greatest thing was one of the conversations that you're exposed to, right, 486 00:24:35,240 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 2: You hear people talked about what they're investing in, and 487 00:24:38,080 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 2: then things that you just see where people checking their 488 00:24:42,040 --> 00:24:44,600 Speaker 2: their four one K. And I remember the first time 489 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:48,800 Speaker 2: I seen real bread was I'm walking down my aisle 490 00:24:49,280 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 2: and one of the mds he wasn't even ahead on 491 00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:54,600 Speaker 2: the desk, he was just an MD managing director. He 492 00:24:54,720 --> 00:24:56,880 Speaker 2: checked his four to one K. He had like three 493 00:24:56,920 --> 00:24:59,720 Speaker 2: million in there, so he rebalanced and stuff, and I'm 494 00:24:59,720 --> 00:25:02,199 Speaker 2: sitting like what is that? And at that moment you 495 00:25:02,240 --> 00:25:04,200 Speaker 2: think about it, like the average person from the inner 496 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:07,960 Speaker 2: city they won, right, people don't even even understand benefits, 497 00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:11,159 Speaker 2: so they don't know like, okay, my full Like they 498 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:13,719 Speaker 2: don't even know what they're for. One kids being invested in. 499 00:25:14,119 --> 00:25:16,080 Speaker 2: Half of them it might be a target day fund. 500 00:25:16,320 --> 00:25:18,360 Speaker 2: Some of them is getting the money market fund, which 501 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:21,919 Speaker 2: is cash equivalent, so your money really ain't growing. And 502 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:26,439 Speaker 2: so just he the exposure made me want to yearn 503 00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:29,240 Speaker 2: and learn more because I'm like, bro, how Sam got 504 00:25:29,280 --> 00:25:31,800 Speaker 2: two three million, and why is he rebalancing? 505 00:25:31,880 --> 00:25:34,119 Speaker 3: So now I'm thinking about how he's doing that. Oh 506 00:25:34,160 --> 00:25:35,320 Speaker 3: I'm hearing these. 507 00:25:35,080 --> 00:25:37,560 Speaker 2: Guys on the desk talked about Oh I'm looking at 508 00:25:37,600 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 2: this mining drilling company and YadA YadA. But like just 509 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:45,040 Speaker 2: the conversations, right one guy telling me about why he 510 00:25:45,080 --> 00:25:47,400 Speaker 2: got an LLC and how he's writing off his dry 511 00:25:47,440 --> 00:25:48,640 Speaker 2: cleaning and all. 512 00:25:48,440 --> 00:25:50,360 Speaker 3: Of his his suits. 513 00:25:50,600 --> 00:25:54,560 Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, so, but the exposure is just one 514 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 2: at that level. And then I went to a fund 515 00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:01,320 Speaker 2: when I moved back to Chicago. Crazy thing is just 516 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:04,240 Speaker 2: being in and obviously y'all doing it in front of 517 00:26:04,280 --> 00:26:07,560 Speaker 2: the world by being on on on stage with the 518 00:26:07,640 --> 00:26:10,840 Speaker 2: Robert Smiths and the Kathy was in the Novgrats, But 519 00:26:11,000 --> 00:26:13,920 Speaker 2: like I'm I was in a few, not a few. 520 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,560 Speaker 2: I was in meetings every day with hedge fund managers, 521 00:26:16,880 --> 00:26:20,440 Speaker 2: portfolio managers and people that ran hedgephones. And now you're 522 00:26:20,520 --> 00:26:23,119 Speaker 2: just doing the backwards math for how much that worth 523 00:26:23,520 --> 00:26:26,800 Speaker 2: and on top of that, how they think. And one 524 00:26:26,800 --> 00:26:29,040 Speaker 2: of the dopest means I was it was with Ken Griffin. 525 00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:34,800 Speaker 2: He's Citadel. He one of the richest dudes out here. 526 00:26:34,880 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 2: He gotta be over nine nine bees. But Fam didn't blink, Bro, 527 00:26:39,920 --> 00:26:43,639 Speaker 2: And what was crazy to me was just how machine 528 00:26:43,800 --> 00:26:46,320 Speaker 2: like he was before there was ai that we knew. 529 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 2: How just he didn't blink the whole meet meeting FAM. 530 00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,880 Speaker 2: If you level watch an interview of Ken Griffin, see 531 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:57,520 Speaker 2: how we talked. We blink as we with our expressions, 532 00:26:57,720 --> 00:27:00,320 Speaker 2: you can get one of the things I love when 533 00:27:00,320 --> 00:27:02,840 Speaker 2: I do public speaking, I count how many times people say, 534 00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:06,520 Speaker 2: just randomly I do that. I was trying to count 535 00:27:06,520 --> 00:27:08,520 Speaker 2: how many times he blink, brought on blink. He a 536 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:12,919 Speaker 2: him machine Bro. But going to that point though, now 537 00:27:13,200 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 2: talking about exposure, Now, I was thinking about different alternative 538 00:27:17,720 --> 00:27:19,800 Speaker 2: methods of what people. 539 00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:20,320 Speaker 3: Are investing in. 540 00:27:20,760 --> 00:27:22,720 Speaker 2: Right, So I remember having a meeting with a specialty 541 00:27:22,760 --> 00:27:26,200 Speaker 2: finance company and this what was a true turning point 542 00:27:27,200 --> 00:27:31,879 Speaker 2: was they were invested. They own a portfolio of cash 543 00:27:31,920 --> 00:27:33,880 Speaker 2: advanced loan places. 544 00:27:34,320 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 3: So when you sit. 545 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:39,119 Speaker 2: There one, it's a phenomenal investment if you on the 546 00:27:39,160 --> 00:27:42,240 Speaker 2: other side, right, Oh, it's uncorrelated to the market. 547 00:27:42,880 --> 00:27:46,280 Speaker 3: It's in black and brown neighborhoods. They charging five hundred 548 00:27:46,320 --> 00:27:47,080 Speaker 3: percent return. 549 00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:50,520 Speaker 2: I'm sorry, they charging five hundred percent interest on the 550 00:27:50,600 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 2: money they borrowing at this and they're doing this. So 551 00:27:53,119 --> 00:27:56,560 Speaker 2: now you look at you say, bro one, us as 552 00:27:56,600 --> 00:27:59,760 Speaker 2: a community, we don't pray, right, we're getting prayed on. 553 00:28:00,560 --> 00:28:03,400 Speaker 2: And even more importantly, was like, wow, there's so many 554 00:28:03,440 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 2: different investment strategies. 555 00:28:05,560 --> 00:28:05,720 Speaker 3: Right. 556 00:28:05,760 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 2: I was sitting across from several portfolio managers for reinsurance. 557 00:28:14,800 --> 00:28:14,960 Speaker 3: Right. 558 00:28:15,000 --> 00:28:17,679 Speaker 2: So to your point when you talked about the the 559 00:28:17,760 --> 00:28:21,919 Speaker 2: burking bag, there's nothing wrong with having these uncorrelated investments 560 00:28:22,160 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 2: because it's people making millions of dollars purely buying the 561 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:31,000 Speaker 2: flood insurance and the hurricane insurance that you have through 562 00:28:31,600 --> 00:28:34,040 Speaker 2: your insurance companies. And so I think at the end 563 00:28:34,080 --> 00:28:37,240 Speaker 2: of the day, bro exposure is something that before the 564 00:28:37,960 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 2: power of social media, sometimes you just needed to be 565 00:28:41,520 --> 00:28:47,880 Speaker 2: in those you know, being at a white firm and 566 00:28:47,920 --> 00:28:51,840 Speaker 2: a white school. You know, I didn't I didn't really 567 00:28:52,040 --> 00:28:55,120 Speaker 2: get to pick and choose, kind of like social media, 568 00:28:55,200 --> 00:28:57,720 Speaker 2: who you follow, because you're you're in the halls with 569 00:28:57,760 --> 00:28:58,760 Speaker 2: these people every day. 570 00:28:59,400 --> 00:29:04,000 Speaker 3: And I say, I wouldn't be where I was. 571 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 2: I wouldn't been investing in two thousand and eight if 572 00:29:06,880 --> 00:29:10,320 Speaker 2: it wasn't for sitting next to a guy he had 573 00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:12,880 Speaker 2: twenty five racks. To your point, to your homie who 574 00:29:12,880 --> 00:29:15,680 Speaker 2: got one hundred racks. This Asian guy had got twenty five, 575 00:29:15,800 --> 00:29:18,520 Speaker 2: and that's that's how he started investing with twenty five. 576 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:23,320 Speaker 2: And it's just different conversations that our community ain't privy to. 577 00:29:23,880 --> 00:29:25,400 Speaker 3: And that's why it's important. 578 00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 4: No, education is extremely important, you know, Like we come 579 00:29:28,560 --> 00:29:31,280 Speaker 4: from working class neighborhood and I'll never to get like 580 00:29:32,440 --> 00:29:34,600 Speaker 4: first time we used to work at a community center 581 00:29:35,080 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 4: at a camp and when we got the first pay check, 582 00:29:39,000 --> 00:29:43,240 Speaker 4: everybody went to. It was a check cashing place right 583 00:29:43,320 --> 00:29:46,560 Speaker 4: next to a Chinese restaurant. And we went to the 584 00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:50,680 Speaker 4: check cashing place and save two hundred dollars and they 585 00:29:50,720 --> 00:29:52,560 Speaker 4: give you like one hundred and ninety dollars and they 586 00:29:52,640 --> 00:29:55,400 Speaker 4: cash a check for you, and nobody ever questioned it. 587 00:29:55,800 --> 00:29:58,280 Speaker 4: But the crazy thing is that there was actually a bank, 588 00:29:59,200 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 4: probably two hundred yards away from a check cashing place, 589 00:30:04,760 --> 00:30:10,200 Speaker 4: exactly easily could have opened a bank account, but nobody 590 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:12,920 Speaker 4: even thought about that. It was just like, yo, this 591 00:30:13,120 --> 00:30:15,160 Speaker 4: is just cold. This is how you get your money. 592 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:16,600 Speaker 4: When you get a check, you give it to them 593 00:30:16,640 --> 00:30:18,840 Speaker 4: and they give you the money for the check. And 594 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:24,520 Speaker 4: it's predatorory lending bro and it is something that like 595 00:30:24,560 --> 00:30:26,600 Speaker 4: I said, I've never seen a check, never see a 596 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 4: check cashing place. 597 00:30:27,320 --> 00:30:28,120 Speaker 5: In the white neighborhood. 598 00:30:29,200 --> 00:30:31,360 Speaker 3: No, never checks. 599 00:30:34,960 --> 00:30:37,320 Speaker 5: I've never seen a check gash place in the white neighborhood. 600 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:38,800 Speaker 5: I've never seen it before ever in life. 601 00:30:39,880 --> 00:30:42,440 Speaker 4: But these once again, this goes back to education is 602 00:30:42,440 --> 00:30:45,440 Speaker 4: being educated, right, And it's like so many things when 603 00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:49,360 Speaker 4: you just look back on life and it's like information 604 00:30:49,520 --> 00:30:52,040 Speaker 4: is just everything, man, because it's like these these bits 605 00:30:52,040 --> 00:30:55,600 Speaker 4: of information could literally life changing.

And so when you're sitting there looking 671 00:34:53,400 --> 00:34:57,759 Speaker 2: at that, it's not until you like take the blinders off. 672 00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:02,160 Speaker 2: You like, wait a minute, game we at the dinner table, 673 00:35:02,320 --> 00:35:04,280 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. And so to your point, 674 00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:08,160 Speaker 2: like information not only could change your life in the 675 00:35:08,160 --> 00:35:10,880 Speaker 2: trajectory or your family, but it's so important to understand 676 00:35:10,920 --> 00:35:14,440 Speaker 2: what we consume because a lot of stuff be you know, propaganda, 677 00:35:14,480 --> 00:35:14,880 Speaker 2: et cetera. 678 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:18,240 Speaker 3: But it's important to understand what we're doing with our free. 679 00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 2: Time because we get lost the way on scrolling and 680 00:35:22,719 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 2: following different things, or lost the way on Netflix. Netflix 681 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,520 Speaker 2: crazy because they give you five seconds to say that 682 00:35:28,600 --> 00:35:30,799 Speaker 2: you want to watch the next episode and then it's 683 00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:33,239 Speaker 2: just instantly on and so you look up. You then 684 00:35:33,320 --> 00:35:37,200 Speaker 2: bends five hours and not understanding the world that's around us. 685 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:39,080 Speaker 2: That for the most part, we don't have a seat 686 00:35:39,120 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 2: at the table, we're not owning nothing, and so like 687 00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 2: having going to that school, And that's something that I 688 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:49,400 Speaker 2: go back and forth with because all my siblings for 689 00:35:49,440 --> 00:35:53,040 Speaker 2: the most part, want to HBCUs and so I'll be thinking, like, 690 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 2: you know, what I want to want my kids go 691 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:57,360 Speaker 2: to HBCU, or what I want them to be exposed to, 692 00:35:57,440 --> 00:36:00,200 Speaker 2: what I was exposed to or granted because now I 693 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:03,279 Speaker 2: was exposed to maybe they can go to an HBCU 694 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,239 Speaker 2: or so I kind of go back and forth. For 695 00:36:05,280 --> 00:36:07,760 Speaker 2: the most part, I want them to go to Canada 696 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:11,920 Speaker 2: route I went to. But like the conversations is different, 697 00:36:12,280 --> 00:36:12,839 Speaker 2: you know what I mean. 698 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:16,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, you have you have kids, you have young children, right, 699 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,200 Speaker 4: So this is something that a lot of parents struggle with, 700 00:36:20,320 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 4: especially like when you start So a problem with the 701 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:25,880 Speaker 4: problem with when you start to make money as a 702 00:36:25,880 --> 00:36:32,799 Speaker 4: black person is that you're faced with some dilemmas. It's 703 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:36,040 Speaker 4: a very weird situation to have money as a black 704 00:36:36,040 --> 00:36:40,000 Speaker 4: person because in most parts of the country, if you 705 00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 4: want to move to a really nice neighborhood, be predominantly white. 706 00:36:47,120 --> 00:36:51,279 Speaker 4: Mm hmmm, well that's an issue because now you're the 707 00:36:51,320 --> 00:36:55,480 Speaker 4: only black person in the neighborhood, and that's weird. And 708 00:36:55,520 --> 00:36:57,719 Speaker 4: then you have to send your kids to school with 709 00:36:57,920 --> 00:37:04,319 Speaker 4: all white children, and especially when they're young, that's a 710 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:08,919 Speaker 4: very dangerous situation to put a child in because they're 711 00:37:08,400 --> 00:37:12,480 Speaker 4: never going to be fully accepted as a white person 712 00:37:12,600 --> 00:37:15,279 Speaker 4: because they're not white. And they're going to lose a 713 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:17,880 Speaker 4: level of cultural identity because they're never going to be 714 00:37:17,920 --> 00:37:21,160 Speaker 4: able to fully identify with the vast majority of black 715 00:37:21,200 --> 00:37:24,319 Speaker 4: people because they become out of touch. So now they 716 00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:28,000 Speaker 4: become kind of like they walk a very thin line. 717 00:37:28,080 --> 00:37:30,040 Speaker 4: I've noticed this with a lot of black kids that 718 00:37:30,239 --> 00:37:33,880 Speaker 4: grew up in white neighborhoods where they do like weird 719 00:37:34,000 --> 00:37:39,600 Speaker 4: cultural like they try to overdo it sometimes. 720 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:40,840 Speaker 3: Try to just it's it's a weird it's it's a 721 00:37:40,880 --> 00:37:41,560 Speaker 3: weird space. 722 00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:48,799 Speaker 4: But then it's like, okay, do you put them in 723 00:37:48,840 --> 00:37:54,160 Speaker 4: a black environment, right. Problem with that, unfortunately is that 724 00:37:54,520 --> 00:37:56,759 Speaker 4: a lot of times the educational system or just the 725 00:37:56,840 --> 00:38:03,720 Speaker 4: environment is not the greatest. But now now when you 726 00:38:03,760 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 4: put somebody who is obvious that the kid has a 727 00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,920 Speaker 4: level of wealth, right or advantages. 728 00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:11,320 Speaker 5: So when you put. 729 00:38:11,560 --> 00:38:14,759 Speaker 4: It's hard to be the richest kid, to be the 730 00:38:14,800 --> 00:38:17,680 Speaker 4: richest kid, right, because now it's like there's a certain 731 00:38:17,800 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 4: level of envy, jealousy, and it's just a certain level 732 00:38:22,680 --> 00:38:25,719 Speaker 4: of just not at a certain point in time, you're 733 00:38:25,800 --> 00:38:29,600 Speaker 4: not going to be able to relate. And that can 734 00:38:29,640 --> 00:38:32,759 Speaker 4: cause issues, right, because then do you start to do 735 00:38:32,840 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 4: you start to do things to self sabotage yourself to 736 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:40,240 Speaker 4: fit in with your friends who are or a socio 737 00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:44,799 Speaker 4: economic environment, right, And that causes challenges for the growth 738 00:38:44,880 --> 00:38:48,360 Speaker 4: of a child because now they can potentially hurt their 739 00:38:48,400 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 4: growth by trying to fit in in a situation that 740 00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:54,759 Speaker 4: they're not familiar with, Like they wasn't raised like that, 741 00:38:54,760 --> 00:38:57,839 Speaker 4: they're not from that environment, but now they're trying to 742 00:38:57,880 --> 00:39:03,560 Speaker 4: fit into that environment to make themselves comfortable with their friends. 743 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:08,839 Speaker 4: Very interesting dynamic that parents have to consider. None think 744 00:39:08,880 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 4: in fact, what's best for your child, right, So what's 745 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:14,120 Speaker 4: your what's your thoughts on that? 746 00:39:14,840 --> 00:39:17,720 Speaker 3: You know what's crazy? And because I went to school 747 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:18,560 Speaker 3: on the East Coast. 748 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:22,200 Speaker 2: I understand that dilemma is even harder for y'all because 749 00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:24,960 Speaker 2: for the most part, you're asking the difference between private 750 00:39:24,960 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 2: school and public school, right ps, and you all the 751 00:39:28,120 --> 00:39:29,719 Speaker 2: name of y'all school's got a number on. 752 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:30,680 Speaker 3: It, type shit. 753 00:39:30,840 --> 00:39:35,160 Speaker 2: And Chicago, lucky enough, there are a few good enough 754 00:39:35,239 --> 00:39:38,920 Speaker 2: public schools that are diverse where you might have twenty 755 00:39:38,920 --> 00:39:42,520 Speaker 2: five is thirty, that twenty is fifteen, where it's like 756 00:39:42,680 --> 00:39:46,799 Speaker 2: really diverse. And that was my that was my experience 757 00:39:46,800 --> 00:39:49,520 Speaker 2: in Chicago, and thanks to Mom's because I didn't go 758 00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:51,759 Speaker 2: to my neighborhood school, I went to a school I 759 00:39:51,800 --> 00:39:53,919 Speaker 2: had to test in for elementary school. If I would 760 00:39:53,920 --> 00:39:55,879 Speaker 2: have went to my neighborhood school, one hundred percent black, 761 00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 2: one hundred percent underfunded, right, But luckily I went to 762 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:03,360 Speaker 2: a schoo school where it was very diverse and white friends. 763 00:40:03,840 --> 00:40:05,680 Speaker 2: I don't remember him coming over to my house, but 764 00:40:05,719 --> 00:40:08,720 Speaker 2: I went over to his, you know what I'm saying. 765 00:40:09,560 --> 00:40:11,000 Speaker 2: And then the same with high school. I went to 766 00:40:11,000 --> 00:40:13,759 Speaker 2: Whitney Young, same school Michelle Obama went to, and it's 767 00:40:14,000 --> 00:40:16,080 Speaker 2: one of the more diverse. But I think that's a 768 00:40:16,160 --> 00:40:20,160 Speaker 2: real crazy question because even there, right, you kind of 769 00:40:20,200 --> 00:40:22,719 Speaker 2: know who the rich kids. 770 00:40:22,000 --> 00:40:23,200 Speaker 3: Sons and daughters is. 771 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:27,960 Speaker 2: And I think to a level of comfort, you can 772 00:40:28,040 --> 00:40:30,080 Speaker 2: ask yourself, right, because I got homies here that went 773 00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:33,640 Speaker 2: to you know, private schools, et cetera, and those where 774 00:40:33,680 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 2: you're gonna be one of only one of a few 775 00:40:35,600 --> 00:40:38,240 Speaker 2: on the black side. But I think that that dilemma 776 00:40:38,360 --> 00:40:40,719 Speaker 2: is way harder on the East Coast because we. 777 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 3: Got a few decent schools here. 778 00:40:44,920 --> 00:40:46,799 Speaker 2: That's on the on the public side, So you ain't 779 00:40:46,800 --> 00:40:50,120 Speaker 2: gotta pay no bread, and it's gonna give your kid 780 00:40:50,239 --> 00:40:54,920 Speaker 2: the ability to be able to almost be more chameleon like, 781 00:40:55,000 --> 00:40:56,839 Speaker 2: because at the end of the day, my kids will 782 00:40:56,920 --> 00:40:59,400 Speaker 2: not be able to relate to my upbringing. They just 783 00:40:59,480 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 2: want now they not gonna necessarily be able to relate 784 00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:07,120 Speaker 2: to some of their white counterparts upbringing either, especially if 785 00:41:07,120 --> 00:41:10,040 Speaker 2: I move to a like you say, a predominantly white 786 00:41:10,040 --> 00:41:11,120 Speaker 2: neighborhood and we go to that. 787 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:12,800 Speaker 3: To that neighborhood school. 788 00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:16,360 Speaker 2: But to actually have that self identity and ensure my 789 00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:19,280 Speaker 2: kids don't have that imposter syndrome, I think it's important 790 00:41:19,360 --> 00:41:23,359 Speaker 2: to one let them continue to know their cousins, let 791 00:41:23,400 --> 00:41:27,560 Speaker 2: them continue to hoop in those in them tournaments, you know, 792 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:31,640 Speaker 2: in those basketball tournaments, and you know, do those type 793 00:41:31,640 --> 00:41:36,480 Speaker 2: of things. But that's a crazy question, only because I 794 00:41:36,600 --> 00:41:39,839 Speaker 2: know what you're thinking about, because like the people that 795 00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:42,640 Speaker 2: live in New York, that's a big question. You got 796 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:44,880 Speaker 2: to pay thirty forty rats to get a good school, 797 00:41:45,320 --> 00:41:50,759 Speaker 2: whereas here, you know the politics. Hopefully my kids make 798 00:41:50,800 --> 00:41:52,640 Speaker 2: it into the school. If not, we're gonna have to 799 00:41:52,840 --> 00:41:56,040 Speaker 2: figure out who palms. We got agrees. But you know, 800 00:41:56,280 --> 00:42:01,480 Speaker 2: I think that, come on, come on that what's what's 801 00:42:01,520 --> 00:42:04,200 Speaker 2: the famous people that that that was at Stanford? The 802 00:42:04,239 --> 00:42:07,439 Speaker 2: actress that got into I don't I don't feel bad 803 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,520 Speaker 2: for you know, she did the right thing. But I 804 00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:13,520 Speaker 2: think that's a crazy thing though, because that identity, that 805 00:42:13,600 --> 00:42:17,359 Speaker 2: identity crisis is real, and especially in Chicago, because what 806 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:20,560 Speaker 2: we see is perceived or other many inner cities is 807 00:42:20,640 --> 00:42:24,640 Speaker 2: like this, don't make you black because you know what 808 00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:27,759 Speaker 2: I'm saying, you're drilling and all that. Like nah, So 809 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:30,759 Speaker 2: it's a it's different elements that you definitely want to 810 00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:34,399 Speaker 2: ensure that you want protect your kids from too getting 811 00:42:34,440 --> 00:42:37,759 Speaker 2: them the best education. But like I get what you're saying, 812 00:42:37,800 --> 00:42:40,279 Speaker 2: and and and once again, I plan to live in 813 00:42:40,280 --> 00:42:41,200 Speaker 2: the best neighborhoods. 814 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,440 Speaker 3: However, I want them to be in a position to 815 00:42:43,560 --> 00:42:44,759 Speaker 3: go to a mixed. 816 00:42:44,520 --> 00:42:47,040 Speaker 4: School though, Like I'm very big, I don't want to 817 00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:48,040 Speaker 4: live in a white neighborhood. 818 00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:51,160 Speaker 5: I would feel I don't. I don't think I would 819 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:51,920 Speaker 5: feel comfortable. 820 00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:54,520 Speaker 4: I do want to get that, I want to I'm 821 00:42:54,640 --> 00:43:00,400 Speaker 4: comfortable in a diverse community. Diverse, but this not a 822 00:43:00,400 --> 00:43:03,440 Speaker 4: lot of diverse communities. So there are diverse communities out there, 823 00:43:03,480 --> 00:43:05,120 Speaker 4: you just have to seek it. But yeah, if you're 824 00:43:05,160 --> 00:43:08,239 Speaker 4: fortunate enough to live like in PG County, that's a 825 00:43:08,400 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 4: pretty affluent black sub and that's that's good. Or like 826 00:43:13,680 --> 00:43:16,080 Speaker 4: Baldwin Hills in Los Angeles. 827 00:43:16,280 --> 00:43:17,680 Speaker 3: Ye, in Atlanta. 828 00:43:19,120 --> 00:43:21,160 Speaker 4: There's a lot of places in Atlanta right where you 829 00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:28,360 Speaker 4: have like thriving black upper class. That's important.

Chicago Skyline 1155 01:00:25,160 --> 01:00:29,640 Speaker 2: in Chicago's summertime is a real argument to had when 1156 01:00:29,680 --> 01:00:31,080 Speaker 2: it comes to comparing it to New York. 1157 01:00:31,600 --> 01:00:36,000 Speaker 4: And I'll leave it at that. Art touching the skyline 1158 01:00:36,040 --> 01:00:41,280 Speaker 4: is beautiful for sure.
