Speaker 1: the master classes about. How did you get in the

44
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 1: business of acting? Well, according to my mama, I was

45
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:31,040
Speaker 1: born um, but I want to say it was when

46
00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:34,239
Speaker 1: I was in the fifth grade and my fifth grade teacher, Mr.

47
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:37,600
Speaker 1: Hornsby asked the class if we wanted to put on

48
00:02:37,639 --> 00:02:41,880
Speaker 1: a play, uh, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, and

49
00:02:42,280 --> 00:02:44,400
Speaker 1: we all wanted to do it. And I got to

50
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:49,560
Speaker 1: play Charlie Um, the lead. And he asked if I

51
00:02:49,600 --> 00:02:52,480
Speaker 1: wanted to change the character's name to Charlene, and I

52
00:02:52,520 --> 00:02:56,760
Speaker 1: was like, no, I can play a boy. And play

53
00:02:56,760 --> 00:02:59,520
Speaker 1: did that. And then my daddy took me and my

54
00:02:59,639 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 1: sister r Uh to the movies to see The Five Heartbeats,

55
00:03:04,520 --> 00:03:09,600
Speaker 1: and I fell in love with that movie so much

56
00:03:09,680 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 1: so that when I watched it at home, I had

57
00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:17,600
Speaker 1: a notepad and I took and I started writing, um,

58
00:03:17,639 --> 00:03:20,440
Speaker 1: the lyrics to the song no matter how hard it gets,

59
00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:23,160
Speaker 1: Like I was just like and so I would perform

60
00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 1: that around the house and I was like, yes, I

61
00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,680
Speaker 1: love this. And so that for me is my first

62
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:34,040
Speaker 1: memory of this whole acting thing. You know, It's interesting because,

63
00:03:34,280 --> 00:03:36,240
Speaker 1: like I said, well, now I remember when high school

64
00:03:36,640 --> 00:03:38,880
Speaker 1: I eventually became a stand up comedian. I became a

65
00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:41,360
Speaker 1: stand up comedian. I fell in love when college just

66
00:03:41,480 --> 00:03:44,720
Speaker 1: opened my mind though it allowed me to see things differently.

67
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 1: In high school, I just want to get out of

68
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:49,400
Speaker 1: high school. But how I always remember this young guy

69
00:03:49,440 --> 00:03:51,760
Speaker 1: in high school. He wanted to be an actor, you know,

70
00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:54,680
Speaker 1: he was. He'd being allowed speaker, doing all the announcements.

71
00:03:54,720 --> 00:03:56,680
Speaker 1: He had all these characters and all these voices. And

72
00:03:56,680 --> 00:03:59,400
Speaker 1: I was like, man, that sounds pretty corny. And I

73
00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:02,080
Speaker 1: say that because you know when you don't when you're acting.

74
00:04:02,280 --> 00:04:05,120
Speaker 1: Is not something normal for a black person to consider.

75
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,240
Speaker 1: And so people when you say that, people started looking

76
00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,440
Speaker 1: at Well, you don't see it on TV. You see

77
00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:12,240
Speaker 1: you know, you see people working at the bank, You

78
00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:15,000
Speaker 1: see people doing normal jobs when you look at television

79
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:18,080
Speaker 1: back then, television now we see a lot more of

80
00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:21,000
Speaker 1: us on. But you were pursuing an opportunity. A lot

81
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,200
Speaker 1: of people doubt it, how did you break through that,

82
00:04:24,720 --> 00:04:28,320
Speaker 1: you know, to be completely honest. By the time I

83
00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,720
Speaker 1: got in high school, I was that person that was like, man,

84
00:04:31,760 --> 00:04:34,680
Speaker 1: this isn't a real job. So what I was going

85
00:04:34,760 --> 00:04:37,040
Speaker 1: to do was be a lawyer who did hair on

86
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:43,800
Speaker 1: the side. Clearly that person belongs in the creative world.

87
00:04:43,880 --> 00:04:45,920
Speaker 1: I think you're gonna be a lawyer and do hair

88
00:04:45,960 --> 00:04:49,960
Speaker 1: on the side. Um. And so when I graduated from

89
00:04:50,000 --> 00:04:52,440
Speaker 1: high school, and I would do plays with my local

90
00:04:52,520 --> 00:04:56,479
Speaker 1: church um throughout high school, but it was still like

91
00:04:56,640 --> 00:05:00,160
Speaker 1: acting isn't a real job. So when I graduate at

92
00:05:00,120 --> 00:05:02,920
Speaker 1: a high school, I went to Xavier University in New

93
00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:06,160
Speaker 1: Orleans because I was going to be a forensic psychologist

94
00:05:06,960 --> 00:05:13,359
Speaker 1: and stayed there for two years. Ace my first chemistry test,

95
00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:18,040
Speaker 1: and that second year I was like, man, I had

96
00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,120
Speaker 1: much rather play a forensic psychologist on TV than being

97
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:25,120
Speaker 1: one in real life. And I made the decision to

98
00:05:25,480 --> 00:05:29,359
Speaker 1: transfer back home to Georgia State and get my degree

99
00:05:29,480 --> 00:05:33,200
Speaker 1: in theater. You know, I think it was just for me.

100
00:05:34,200 --> 00:05:37,719
Speaker 1: I just felt like, this isn't what I feel like

101
00:05:37,800 --> 00:05:41,400
Speaker 1: I'm being called to do, you know, And so I

102
00:05:41,480 --> 00:05:47,000
Speaker 1: had to honor that. And fortunately I had a family

103
00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:50,719
Speaker 1: and still have a family who was so supportive of me.

104
00:05:50,880 --> 00:05:56,520
Speaker 1: My mom. Man, please that woman right there. It was

105
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:58,839
Speaker 1: like all right, if I if I was like, you know, Mom,

106
00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:03,400
Speaker 1: I think I want to try to fly to the moon,

107
00:06:03,480 --> 00:06:05,560
Speaker 1: she'd be like, all right, well should we go to

108
00:06:05,600 --> 00:06:09,520
Speaker 1: home depot? And you know, like that's just the kind

109
00:06:09,520 --> 00:06:12,120
Speaker 1: of woman. My daddy, It's took him a moment to

110
00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 1: kind of come around, And I think that was part

111
00:06:14,200 --> 00:06:19,039
Speaker 1: of my hesitation of like, yeah, I mean, he took

112
00:06:19,120 --> 00:06:22,040
Speaker 1: him a moment, Like I want to say, when I

113
00:06:22,080 --> 00:06:26,400
Speaker 1: went home for Christmas, my daddy for the first time

114
00:06:27,320 --> 00:06:31,120
Speaker 1: to my face was like, you know, you hung in there,

115
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:33,800
Speaker 1: and I'm so proud of you. Like I had my

116
00:06:33,880 --> 00:06:36,719
Speaker 1: doubts I couldn't do it, but you hung in there

117
00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:40,000
Speaker 1: and you did it. And look at you now, like yeah.

118
00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:41,800
Speaker 1: The reason I bring that that because that's one of

119
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,440
Speaker 1: the lines I talked about, you know, when your gifts,

120
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:46,960
Speaker 1: you know, don't let your friends, family, a courtwork and

121
00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,640
Speaker 1: stop you from planning to live in your dreams. Because

122
00:06:49,680 --> 00:06:51,920
Speaker 1: your dreams. I always tell people when you go through life,

123
00:06:52,200 --> 00:06:55,000
Speaker 1: if you live somebody else's life one day, that's gonna

124
00:06:55,360 --> 00:06:58,120
Speaker 1: become uncomfortable. So you have to wake up and have

125
00:06:58,240 --> 00:07:01,000
Speaker 1: that passion and the desire. And that's a really cool

126
00:07:01,040 --> 00:07:03,480
Speaker 1: story you just conveyed us. But another story that you

127
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:06,000
Speaker 1: conveyed in that storytelling was that you was at an

128
00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:10,160
Speaker 1: HBCU and then you went to Georgia State University. Now,

129
00:07:10,200 --> 00:07:12,880
Speaker 1: those are two different environments. To talk to us about

130
00:07:12,960 --> 00:07:16,360
Speaker 1: the HBCU experience that you will enjoy because you were

131
00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:19,440
Speaker 1: doing good academics there, but that wasn't the direction you

132
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:21,520
Speaker 1: wanted to take your life. And then you went to

133
00:07:21,560 --> 00:07:24,800
Speaker 1: Georgia State University. What was the experiences that you shared

134
00:07:24,880 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 1: in both cultures, because there are two different cultures academic cultures. Yeah,

135
00:07:30,200 --> 00:07:36,960
Speaker 1: you know, one being Xavier University in itself, extremely protigious,

136
00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:43,880
Speaker 1: prestigious university. Yeah, in New Orleans. And so even just

137
00:07:44,040 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 1: going to New Orleans was an experience in itself, you know,

138
00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:52,560
Speaker 1: the culture, the food. Um, I was like, yeah, this

139
00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:57,240
Speaker 1: freshman fifty, sophomore sixty is a real thing because this

140
00:07:57,400 --> 00:08:02,600
Speaker 1: food is incredible. But just the energy on that HBCU

141
00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,960
Speaker 1: campus in seeing people that looked like me, um and

142
00:08:07,960 --> 00:08:11,400
Speaker 1: and didn't look like me but we're still a part

143
00:08:11,440 --> 00:08:16,320
Speaker 1: of me, was very um. It was very heartwarming, was

144
00:08:16,400 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: very welcoming. Immediately formed a group of friends that I'm

145
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,560
Speaker 1: still with today. We still have a text chain. Um.

146
00:08:24,600 --> 00:08:28,200
Speaker 1: Although all of my friends there graduated from Xavier when

147
00:08:28,200 --> 00:08:31,520
Speaker 1: I left, we still stayed in contact and so there

148
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:35,960
Speaker 1: was just this camaraderie that we had UM that was like, yeah,

149
00:08:36,080 --> 00:08:39,640
Speaker 1: we're we're family and we're here in it together. And

150
00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:43,880
Speaker 1: then leaving going to Georgia State, which clearly was not

151
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:47,520
Speaker 1: an HBCU, although I hear word on the street is

152
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:50,280
Speaker 1: that Georgia State is about to become an HBCU with

153
00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:55,160
Speaker 1: all of us there now, which is exciting, um, but

154
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:58,640
Speaker 1: it was a different It was a different atmosphere. It

155
00:08:58,760 --> 00:09:02,120
Speaker 1: felt very much like we're here to do work, and

156
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:04,600
Speaker 1: not that that wasn't it. It just felt like more

157
00:09:04,640 --> 00:09:09,719
Speaker 1: of a family there at the HBCU in UH New

158
00:09:09,880 --> 00:09:13,160
Speaker 1: Orleans and at Georgia State it was like, all right,

159
00:09:13,280 --> 00:09:15,760
Speaker 1: we're about business and that's what we that's what we

160
00:09:15,800 --> 00:09:17,760
Speaker 1: need to do. If you want a family, then you

161
00:09:17,800 --> 00:09:21,640
Speaker 1: can join a sorority or a fraternity or other organizations,

162
00:09:22,000 --> 00:09:26,679
Speaker 1: but we're here to work. YEA. Plus, Georgia Stays is

163
00:09:26,760 --> 00:09:30,400
Speaker 1: more like a commuter school, and the size of the

164
00:09:30,440 --> 00:09:33,520
Speaker 1: school was way bigger than it was, but the fun

165
00:09:33,520 --> 00:09:37,440
Speaker 1: part about it. Now you on a fictional school that's based,

166
00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:40,679
Speaker 1: I want to say, in Atlanta, Georgia called Bringston, and

167
00:09:40,760 --> 00:09:45,720
Speaker 1: your professor who basically uh, the word whistle blower, the

168
00:09:45,800 --> 00:09:49,000
Speaker 1: word h a lot of other negative words about your character.

169
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:52,160
Speaker 1: But this is all character development. You you play a great,

170
00:09:52,280 --> 00:09:55,920
Speaker 1: great loving aunt who is very supportive of the students

171
00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:59,559
Speaker 1: who are attending uh this uh, this fantastic university. I

172
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:01,720
Speaker 1: want to of everybody when you watch a series. I

173
00:10:01,800 --> 00:10:03,679
Speaker 1: told her affair, I got to tell her own air.

174
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:07,520
Speaker 1: It felt like different world on steroids where you so

175
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:11,560
Speaker 1: different world in a very sickcomming environment. This is a

176
00:10:11,800 --> 00:10:15,520
Speaker 1: this is a slice of life coming of age individuals.

177
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:17,400
Speaker 1: But I don't want to jump to a head telling

178
00:10:17,440 --> 00:10:20,240
Speaker 1: the story. Tell us your your your your view of

179
00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:25,280
Speaker 1: the series All American Homecoming, which is a spinoff, yes,

180
00:10:25,679 --> 00:10:30,880
Speaker 1: spinoff of uh an amazing show All American, which is

181
00:10:30,960 --> 00:10:34,000
Speaker 1: the number one TV show for the CW. So I

182
00:10:34,040 --> 00:10:36,679
Speaker 1: want to give out all the shout outs and props

183
00:10:36,720 --> 00:10:41,000
Speaker 1: to All American, our flagship show. Um and and the

184
00:10:41,040 --> 00:10:46,360
Speaker 1: foundation for what All American Homecoming is built upon. And

185
00:10:46,760 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: you know the two words that come to mind about

186
00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:54,640
Speaker 1: Homecoming is black excellence in all its forms. You know,

187
00:10:54,920 --> 00:10:59,040
Speaker 1: when we succeed and whatever that definition is, as you

188
00:10:59,080 --> 00:11:03,079
Speaker 1: said earlier, when we have our failures and how we

189
00:11:03,160 --> 00:11:08,000
Speaker 1: respond to those failures, that is still black excellence. And

190
00:11:08,080 --> 00:11:11,080
Speaker 1: so you know, it's just an amazing gift to be

191
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:15,480
Speaker 1: a part of a show that is compared or even

192
00:11:15,559 --> 00:11:18,600
Speaker 1: in the realm of a different world. You know, we

193
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,600
Speaker 1: had our t c A s yesterday and I said

194
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:26,600
Speaker 1: when people were people walk around with Himan on their

195
00:11:26,640 --> 00:11:30,920
Speaker 1: sweatshirts and talk about how they envisioned going to Hillman

196
00:11:31,160 --> 00:11:34,679
Speaker 1: and I'm like, Brinkston is going to be our next

197
00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:38,680
Speaker 1: Hillman um on steroids. As you say, well, you know,

198
00:11:38,720 --> 00:11:42,319
Speaker 1: the interesting part about it was that there is an

199
00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:46,160
Speaker 1: unabashed or it's just bashed. It was just it's a

200
00:11:46,800 --> 00:11:50,040
Speaker 1: it's a very comfortable statement when you say black excellence

201
00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,280
Speaker 1: on this show. I was, you know, it was just

202
00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:55,200
Speaker 1: a different world. Was just the first time out. It was.

203
00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,079
Speaker 1: It was a Bill Cosby show was an incredible hit

204
00:11:58,400 --> 00:12:00,160
Speaker 1: to he had the ability to say we're gonna do

205
00:12:00,240 --> 00:12:01,760
Speaker 1: this show. Has the ability to say we're gonna do

206
00:12:01,800 --> 00:12:04,800
Speaker 1: a black grade generation on this show. An episode around

207
00:12:04,800 --> 00:12:08,120
Speaker 1: there when I watched All American Homecoming. It's a coming

208
00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:10,080
Speaker 1: of age, you know. I remember I was fortunate just

209
00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: to share a little story. I was, I was, I

210
00:12:12,040 --> 00:12:15,839
Speaker 1: was writing, I was supervising producer for the sister sister

211
00:12:15,920 --> 00:12:19,199
Speaker 1: t and Tamara Maori, and we had to get them

212
00:12:19,200 --> 00:12:22,839
Speaker 1: from high school to college. And so because it was

213
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:24,640
Speaker 1: like okay, they got to get out of high school,

214
00:12:24,640 --> 00:12:28,199
Speaker 1: but the experiences are different now. Your role, uh is

215
00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:32,160
Speaker 1: a mentor, your role is a teacher, but your role

216
00:12:32,200 --> 00:12:35,640
Speaker 1: plays a very important role because it centers around the students,

217
00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,720
Speaker 1: giving them structure in a social environment. Talk about your

218
00:12:38,800 --> 00:12:42,440
Speaker 1: character that you play and also, um, why it's so

219
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:46,120
Speaker 1: important for the show to have your character. That's a

220
00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:51,720
Speaker 1: great question, you know. Um, you talked about earlier some

221
00:12:51,880 --> 00:12:54,560
Speaker 1: of the negative words that can be used to describe

222
00:12:54,679 --> 00:12:59,440
Speaker 1: a Mara because of what she did. But I believe

223
00:12:59,559 --> 00:13:04,839
Speaker 1: a mare are Her main goal is to help our

224
00:13:05,320 --> 00:13:09,560
Speaker 1: young black people understand the importance of education. Like, yes,

225
00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:13,000
Speaker 1: we can be great athletes. We can throw a football,

226
00:13:13,080 --> 00:13:15,600
Speaker 1: we can bounce the basketball, we can hit a tennis ball,

227
00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:20,120
Speaker 1: all of those things, and yet education is so important.

228
00:13:20,320 --> 00:13:24,920
Speaker 1: Never to neglect the importance of education, and if that

229
00:13:25,000 --> 00:13:31,560
Speaker 1: means that my character has to say, Yo, something is

230
00:13:31,640 --> 00:13:35,559
Speaker 1: off happening here. I'm going to blow that with so

231
00:13:35,640 --> 00:13:39,040
Speaker 1: at the expense of our young people being able to

232
00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:44,040
Speaker 1: go out into this world that is already stacked against

233
00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,880
Speaker 1: them in so many different areas. And so I think

234
00:13:46,920 --> 00:13:50,760
Speaker 1: the importance of my character, as n K has said

235
00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:56,280
Speaker 1: to me numerous times before, she is the heart um

236
00:13:56,320 --> 00:14:01,200
Speaker 1: of this show because there is no judgment in her

237
00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:04,800
Speaker 1: against the mistakes that may be made or even in

238
00:14:04,840 --> 00:14:08,439
Speaker 1: that situation, it's like I'm presented with a problem and

239
00:14:08,520 --> 00:14:11,520
Speaker 1: there is a solution. Let's get to the solution. I

240
00:14:11,520 --> 00:14:14,600
Speaker 1: don't want to stay focused on this scandal. What I

241
00:14:14,679 --> 00:14:17,040
Speaker 1: want to focus on is how we make this better

242
00:14:17,240 --> 00:14:21,120
Speaker 1: because we need to operate in a standard which is

243
00:14:21,240 --> 00:14:24,480
Speaker 1: black excellence. Absolutely, we'll be right back with more Money

244
00:14:24,480 --> 00:14:34,320
Speaker 1: Making Conversations Masterclass with Rashan McDonald. Now, let's return to

245
00:14:34,400 --> 00:14:38,960
Speaker 1: Money Making Conversations Masterclass with Rashan McDonald. I'm talking to

246
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:41,280
Speaker 1: Kelly jin Rep. She's one of the co stars of

247
00:14:41,360 --> 00:14:45,240
Speaker 1: the will be popular series All American Homecoming and will

248
00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:48,880
Speaker 1: be premiering and airing on on CW. She plays a

249
00:14:48,880 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 1: blood professor on this This fictional school is an HBCU

250
00:14:52,360 --> 00:14:54,880
Speaker 1: school is based in Atlanta, Georgia. Now this is why

251
00:14:54,920 --> 00:14:57,360
Speaker 1: I really really like to show y'all because you know,

252
00:14:57,360 --> 00:14:59,760
Speaker 1: when you go when you think of HBC, you think football,

253
00:15:00,000 --> 00:15:02,520
Speaker 1: think basketball. When you think of HBC, you think of

254
00:15:02,560 --> 00:15:06,560
Speaker 1: the marching band, you think of the girls dancing and everything.

255
00:15:07,000 --> 00:15:10,840
Speaker 1: This series focuses on a couple of sports that you

256
00:15:10,920 --> 00:15:16,640
Speaker 1: don't tie to an HBCU tennis and baseball. And and

257
00:15:16,680 --> 00:15:19,360
Speaker 1: I really loved it, Kelly, because of the fact my daughter,

258
00:15:19,840 --> 00:15:22,480
Speaker 1: she was a tennis prodigy, and so you know, I'm

259
00:15:22,520 --> 00:15:25,160
Speaker 1: really looking at these tennis scenes, you know, real different,

260
00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:27,640
Speaker 1: you know, because my daughters picked up a racings you

261
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,520
Speaker 1: six and and she retired in nineteen because she blew

262
00:15:30,520 --> 00:15:33,200
Speaker 1: out a need and she's on the tour. So I

263
00:15:33,200 --> 00:15:35,880
Speaker 1: I look at tennis and I enjoy and I went, wow,

264
00:15:35,960 --> 00:15:38,600
Speaker 1: this is so cool. And they do a good job

265
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:42,880
Speaker 1: of really making it, making it a sense of reality.

266
00:15:42,920 --> 00:15:45,400
Speaker 1: This is a real tennis team. And of course the

267
00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:47,880
Speaker 1: baseball thing. So when I looked at that, I really

268
00:15:48,040 --> 00:15:49,640
Speaker 1: it really put the spile on my face because it

269
00:15:49,720 --> 00:15:53,200
Speaker 1: wasn't a football player, it wasn't a basketball team, it

270
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:57,080
Speaker 1: wasn't a band. This was about tennis and baseball. Did

271
00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:59,800
Speaker 1: you enjoy that shift in the narrative of how they

272
00:15:59,840 --> 00:16:05,440
Speaker 1: were showing a different slice of life than HBCU. Yes. Absolutely.

273
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:09,760
Speaker 1: My mom is an avid tennis player and has been

274
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:13,880
Speaker 1: for thirty years. She still plays tennis to this day,

275
00:16:14,400 --> 00:16:18,040
Speaker 1: and so my love of tennis comes from her. In fact,

276
00:16:18,120 --> 00:16:21,760
Speaker 1: my sister and I Kimberly is my sister. My mom

277
00:16:21,920 --> 00:16:26,320
Speaker 1: tried to get us into tennis so that we could

278
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:32,280
Speaker 1: be the first Venus and Syria. But according to her,

279
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 1: we we were a little too pressy. We were talking

280
00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,680
Speaker 1: about how hot it was and we didn't want to

281
00:16:37,720 --> 00:16:39,880
Speaker 1: be out there. You know, we were in we were

282
00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:44,400
Speaker 1: in Atlanta. You know that humidity was real. So, you know,

283
00:16:44,600 --> 00:16:48,040
Speaker 1: we we stopped playing tennis at a very early age.

284
00:16:48,040 --> 00:16:51,480
Speaker 1: But she continued on and so I think it is

285
00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:57,119
Speaker 1: so refreshing to see a sport like tennis and baseball,

286
00:16:57,160 --> 00:17:00,240
Speaker 1: which what she said, we don't think of that when

287
00:17:00,320 --> 00:17:02,800
Speaker 1: we think of an HBCU. So I think it is

288
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:07,120
Speaker 1: very refreshing to see like, hey, yes we play tennis

289
00:17:07,119 --> 00:17:09,800
Speaker 1: and we're very good at it. We also played baseball

290
00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,240
Speaker 1: and we're very good at that as well. We can

291
00:17:13,400 --> 00:17:19,080
Speaker 1: do it all well, you know, excellent black excellent. You

292
00:17:19,160 --> 00:17:21,840
Speaker 1: know when we do these series, that's always fun and

293
00:17:21,880 --> 00:17:24,119
Speaker 1: part about these series. And you know, like as I

294
00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:25,760
Speaker 1: go all the way back to when Steve Harvey I

295
00:17:25,800 --> 00:17:28,439
Speaker 1: did ABC is first sitcom Me and the boys, and

296
00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,560
Speaker 1: they always want to insert, you know, white characters or

297
00:17:31,640 --> 00:17:34,240
Speaker 1: characters that are non black so they can make age

298
00:17:34,280 --> 00:17:36,960
Speaker 1: of the viewers can be comfortable. But I love the

299
00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,360
Speaker 1: first I really love the whole thing with the baseball

300
00:17:39,359 --> 00:17:41,159
Speaker 1: players because you have a you have a slice of

301
00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:44,000
Speaker 1: life over there. You know, players from Columbia, white players,

302
00:17:44,200 --> 00:17:47,359
Speaker 1: and it feels organic, it feels natural. And that's what

303
00:17:47,520 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 1: I really enjoy about All American Homecoming is that the

304
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 1: show feels natural. I'm very comfortable. I don't feel as

305
00:17:53,280 --> 00:17:56,359
Speaker 1: a view I'm being forced to participate. I feel like

306
00:17:56,400 --> 00:17:59,080
Speaker 1: this is natural and it all makes sense. Now let's

307
00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:00,960
Speaker 1: go to the character is on the show. Because we've

308
00:18:01,000 --> 00:18:03,080

00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:43,920
Speaker 1: to you. You know, you have the HBC experience, you

321
00:18:43,960 --> 00:18:46,119

Speaker 1: really acting for you. Kelly m h. Yeah, And that's

323
00:18:51,000 --> 00:18:56,199
Speaker 1: what I love. And I tell Jeffrey who plays Simone UM,

324
00:18:56,440 --> 00:19:01,399
Speaker 1: that relationship between Amara and Simone reminds me so much

325
00:19:01,440 --> 00:19:07,360
Speaker 1: of my relationship with my nephew Jonathan. Like Jonathan that

326
00:19:07,520 --> 00:19:11,760
Speaker 1: is my baby. My sister has two kids, Jonathan and Evelyn.

327
00:19:12,320 --> 00:19:15,760
Speaker 1: My I call Jonathan my nephew son and Evelyn my

328
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:19,800
Speaker 1: niece daughter, like they are like my children, and I'm

329
00:19:19,960 --> 00:19:24,479
Speaker 1: very protective over them. So this relationship between Amara and

330
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:29,560
Speaker 1: Simone feels like, oh, yeah, this is this is what

331
00:19:29,640 --> 00:19:33,240
Speaker 1: I do in my real life. Wanting to support her,

332
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:37,040
Speaker 1: wanting to correct her. Um and challenge her and just

333
00:19:37,119 --> 00:19:41,639
Speaker 1: wanting the best for her. And the relationship between myself,

334
00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:45,919
Speaker 1: Kelly and Jeffrey is such a beautiful one. You know,

335
00:19:46,080 --> 00:19:50,360
Speaker 1: we we talk, we text all the time. She's such

336
00:19:50,400 --> 00:19:54,440
Speaker 1: an amazing uh woman, And and you know, you talk

337
00:19:54,520 --> 00:19:58,439
Speaker 1: about tennis. She puts in so much work. You know.

338
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:02,040
Speaker 1: I remember once we got the official pickup and I

339
00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:04,520
Speaker 1: would be texting her and she's like, Hey, so sorry,

340
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:06,680
Speaker 1: I couldn't get back to you. I was at tennis

341
00:20:06,680 --> 00:20:08,840
Speaker 1: practice or she was like, Hey, I'm getting ready to

342
00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:11,000
Speaker 1: go to tennis practice, and you know, she's like, oh,

343
00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:13,760
Speaker 1: I'm so tired because I just got home from tennis practice.

344
00:20:13,800 --> 00:20:17,160
Speaker 1: Like really putting in the work. And the same with

345
00:20:17,320 --> 00:20:21,320
Speaker 1: Peyton and the baseball, like really putting in the work.

346
00:20:21,440 --> 00:20:26,639
Speaker 1: So to see these these characters being brought to life

347
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:31,320
Speaker 1: by these individuals who are so passionate about making it

348
00:20:31,760 --> 00:20:36,320
Speaker 1: look authentic and real, Kelly as well as Amara can't

349
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:40,439
Speaker 1: help but want to be there to support these young people.

350
00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,479
Speaker 1: You know, we know. The beauty of my show is

351
00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:48,080
Speaker 1: it is broadcast on about one HBCU campuses from Texas,

352
00:20:48,119 --> 00:20:54,480
Speaker 1: Southern Howard Clark, Atlanta University FAMU, but Dune Cookman just

353
00:20:54,560 --> 00:20:57,439
Speaker 1: to name a few of these incredible campus that that

354
00:20:57,520 --> 00:20:59,879
Speaker 1: allowed me to air my show on their radio. And

355
00:21:00,000 --> 00:21:02,880
Speaker 1: it works. And but the worry Black Excellence just keep

356
00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:05,879
Speaker 1: screaming out in a positive you know, and it just

357
00:21:05,880 --> 00:21:09,160
Speaker 1: seems organic to the show. That's I think that puts

358
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:10,920
Speaker 1: the biggest smile on your face to be able to

359
00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:14,360
Speaker 1: tell a story, you know, in an environment that feels

360
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,520
Speaker 1: very real. I'm telling you know, television is a real

361
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:21,240
Speaker 1: so how you portray it makes it makes it real.

362
00:21:21,480 --> 00:21:24,280
Speaker 1: And I feel like I'm watching real television play out.

363
00:21:24,680 --> 00:21:27,720
Speaker 1: It just happened to be actors. And I guess I

364
00:21:27,840 --> 00:21:30,280
Speaker 1: may want to go to Brixton tell us about that

365
00:21:30,359 --> 00:21:32,959
Speaker 1: whole field that you that's being created by the director,

366
00:21:33,040 --> 00:21:35,399
Speaker 1: being created by the actors that you guys get to

367
00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:37,800
Speaker 1: meet once a week at your house and have some

368
00:21:38,520 --> 00:21:43,879
Speaker 1: family dinner. Yeah. I think it was so important for

369
00:21:44,400 --> 00:21:49,000
Speaker 1: n k our showrunner and creator to make something that

370
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:53,000
Speaker 1: was authentic, you know, being from Atlanta and then having

371
00:21:53,040 --> 00:21:58,520
Speaker 1: this base in Atlanta. Jeffrey went to Clark Atlanta University,

372
00:21:58,600 --> 00:22:02,520
Speaker 1: graduated from c A. You. Um, yeah, so there were

373
00:22:02,560 --> 00:22:05,480
Speaker 1: there were things that we were like, this has got

374
00:22:05,560 --> 00:22:09,440
Speaker 1: to be on point you know, there are things that

375
00:22:10,040 --> 00:22:15,560
Speaker 1: that are so specific to Atlanta and black culture there

376
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:18,800
Speaker 1: that we want to make sure we hit on and

377
00:22:19,040 --> 00:22:25,480
Speaker 1: our production crew, construction crew. It's just they have created

378
00:22:25,680 --> 00:22:31,120
Speaker 1: a world that feels like Brixton University is a real

379
00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,600
Speaker 1: university and people are gonna be googling like how do

380
00:22:34,920 --> 00:22:40,760
Speaker 1: I send an application and university just because they've done

381
00:22:40,800 --> 00:22:46,080
Speaker 1: such an amazing job from our background performers to what

382
00:22:46,119 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 1: the outside of the university looks like and and even

383
00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,320
Speaker 1: my home. When they get a look at Amara's place,

384
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:55,600
Speaker 1: I was like, you know what, I'm gonna move out

385
00:22:55,600 --> 00:22:58,520
Speaker 1: of where I live right now and I'm going to

386
00:22:58,640 --> 00:23:03,879
Speaker 1: stay in Amara's uh locked on set because just the

387
00:23:03,960 --> 00:23:09,800
Speaker 1: detail that goes into creating this world and the specificity

388
00:23:09,840 --> 00:23:13,760
Speaker 1: that is needed to make it feel like, oh this

389
00:23:14,000 --> 00:23:20,320
Speaker 1: is real, Like wait is this real? Is just it's unbelievable,

390
00:23:20,440 --> 00:23:23,160
Speaker 1: and I think it just lends itself to making it

391
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:26,520
Speaker 1: feel like this is something. This is a world that

392
00:23:26,600 --> 00:23:29,080
Speaker 1: I want to be a part of. And Kelly is

393
00:23:29,119 --> 00:23:33,159
Speaker 1: not lying the entry door because when she closed that

394
00:23:33,240 --> 00:23:35,840
Speaker 1: do I win? What's that wall? What is that? Well?

395
00:23:36,040 --> 00:23:38,800
Speaker 1: I can't. It's just so beautiful and I couldn't figure

396
00:23:38,800 --> 00:23:40,480
Speaker 1: it out. That we was like, I need to find

397
00:23:40,480 --> 00:23:42,560
Speaker 1: out what that wall is. It's just really you know,

398
00:23:42,760 --> 00:23:45,760
Speaker 1: because that's called great set design. That's the person they hired.

399
00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,040
Speaker 1: They designed to set, They lay it out, they go around,

400
00:23:48,080 --> 00:23:50,600
Speaker 1: they take photos, and they wanted to be comfortable with

401
00:23:50,800 --> 00:23:54,520
Speaker 1: room me. It feels like it's a location where she stands.

402
00:23:54,560 --> 00:23:57,760
Speaker 1: She can stay there on a college professor's salary, as

Speaker 1: now tuned into the Money Making Conversations Minute of Inspiration

433
00:25:33,359 --> 00:25:36,720
Speaker 1: with Rushan McDonald. Hi, Rashan McDonald for Money Making Conversations

434
00:25:36,760 --> 00:25:40,080
Speaker 1: Masterclass with your daily minute of Inspiration. During a conversation

435
00:25:40,119 --> 00:25:43,040
Speaker 1: with the CEO and founder of Curls, author and business

436
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:47,159
Speaker 1: mentor Mahesha Dillinger, talked about the importance of budget planning

437
00:25:47,240 --> 00:25:50,400
Speaker 1: when you're starting a business. Budget planning is important because

438
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:52,760
Speaker 1: if you don't have all your costs and know what

439
00:25:52,840 --> 00:25:55,159
Speaker 1: you're gonna spend, you can easily use your shirt. So

440
00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,040
Speaker 1: I think most importantly, UM, you need to get someone

441
00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:00,840
Speaker 1: in your life that can and toy you in the

442
00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:04,080
Speaker 1: space that you're in because they can help you see

443
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:07,040
Speaker 1: those unforeseen cause you don't know about. So that was

444
00:26:07,080 --> 00:26:09,080
Speaker 1: one of things I did early on. UM got a

445
00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:12,320
Speaker 1: mentor that was actually in the hair care industry. So

446
00:26:12,600 --> 00:26:15,240
Speaker 1: I was able to number one saving areas because he

447
00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,280
Speaker 1: connected me to different people in his world. But he

448
00:26:18,359 --> 00:26:20,159
Speaker 1: was also able to show me what to expect him

449
00:26:20,160 --> 00:26:22,440
Speaker 1: what I expect and help me my budgetings. You can

450
00:26:22,480 --> 00:26:25,840
Speaker 1: listen to this poor interview with Mahitia Dillinger. It's available

451

483
00:28:15,440 --> 00:28:17,840
Speaker 1: You know, we just wrapped up January. We're going into

484
00:28:17,880 --> 00:28:20,520
Speaker 1: Black History moth and you know that this is the

485
00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:23,239
Speaker 1: first quarter or you gotta get your taxes right. This

486
00:28:23,280 --> 00:28:25,760
Speaker 1: is when people start applying for the you know, two

487
00:28:25,840 --> 00:28:28,320
Speaker 1: years ago we were about to go into you know,

488
00:28:28,560 --> 00:28:32,160
Speaker 1: a pandemic, you know Marshalls when they shut us all down.

489
00:28:32,560 --> 00:28:35,359
Speaker 1: Now this year we're going in. They're not shutting this

490
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:39,280
Speaker 1: country down. So if you're struggling with financial issues, we

491
00:28:39,280 --> 00:28:41,040
Speaker 1: we gotta get it fixed. And that's why I wanted

492
00:28:41,080 --> 00:28:42,760
Speaker 1: you on the show to try to help. And I

493
00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:44,880
Speaker 1: think it was better that we did wait because people

494
00:28:44,920 --> 00:28:47,640
Speaker 1: got they got to see what what's this government is

495
00:28:47,680 --> 00:28:50,440
Speaker 1: going to offer. They got to see that they're cutting things,

496
00:28:50,440 --> 00:28:52,560
Speaker 1: they're trying to get back to normal and if you

497
00:28:52,640 --> 00:28:55,480
Speaker 1: fall along the side of the road, they might just

498
00:28:55,600 --> 00:28:59,760
Speaker 1: drive past you and leave you there for your thought.

499
00:29:00,080 --> 00:29:04,120
Speaker 1: You know. I'm I'm excited too, because I think everybody thought,

500
00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:07,200
Speaker 1: with this year being so many two you know to

501
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:10,960
Speaker 1: to to, everybody just kind of thought everything from the

502
00:29:11,040 --> 00:29:13,800
Speaker 1: past two years was just gonna be wiped away. But

503
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:16,760
Speaker 1: the truth is we still have work to do. UM.

504
00:29:16,800 --> 00:29:20,040
Speaker 1: Inflation is at an all time high. UM, but hope

505
00:29:20,080 --> 00:29:21,959
Speaker 1: it is also at an all time high. So I

506
00:29:22,000 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 1: think this master class is exactly what people need to

507
00:29:25,080 --> 00:29:27,200
Speaker 1: get to the next level. You know, it's really interesting,

508
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:29,440
Speaker 1: Dr Lyrig. I remember when they you know, when they

509
00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:33,120
Speaker 1: pushed the income tax date in and uh, you know,

510
00:29:33,280 --> 00:29:35,800
Speaker 1: but they pushed from April fifteenth, and they went to

511
00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:39,200
Speaker 1: May in June, and then they didn't push the October

512
00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,760
Speaker 1: fifteenth date. That stayed there, and I still had to

513
00:29:41,800 --> 00:29:43,680
Speaker 1: pay my tax bill and it was a huge tax

514
00:29:43,720 --> 00:29:46,000
Speaker 1: bill now, and I was frustrated because I didn't make

515
00:29:46,000 --> 00:29:49,120
Speaker 1: any money to generate to be able to pay that off.

516
00:29:49,240 --> 00:29:51,520
Speaker 1: And so so it was at the point where this

517
00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:55,040
Speaker 1: government said enough is enough. You know, you either either

518
00:29:55,120 --> 00:29:56,640
Speaker 1: you're gonna be on one side of the winners you're

519
00:29:56,680 --> 00:29:58,640
Speaker 1: gonna be one side of the losers. How did you

520
00:29:58,680 --> 00:30:01,560
Speaker 1: see that whole and the play out for you personally

521
00:30:01,840 --> 00:30:05,920
Speaker 1: and people that you represented financially and also accounting wise

522
00:30:05,920 --> 00:30:10,959
Speaker 1: as well well. Was an interesting year because you know,

523
00:30:11,040 --> 00:30:13,560
Speaker 1: I always speak about getting your money back. I have

524
00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,600
Speaker 1: three basic principles for building wealth. Spend less money, get

525
00:30:17,600 --> 00:30:21,160
Speaker 1: a budget, get more money, will get multiple streams of income.

526
00:30:21,560 --> 00:30:23,760
Speaker 1: But you know when you get more money, the more

527
00:30:23,840 --> 00:30:25,440
Speaker 1: you make, the more the I R s will take.

528
00:30:25,880 --> 00:30:29,200
Speaker 1: So then you have to get your money back by

529
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:32,440
Speaker 1: living your entire life like a business. So if you

530
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:35,120
Speaker 1: drive your car for personal reasons, you don't get your

531
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,400
Speaker 1: money back, But if you drive your car from business,

532
00:30:37,400 --> 00:30:40,160
Speaker 1: you do. If you go out to eat for personal reasons,

533
00:30:40,200 --> 00:30:42,040
Speaker 1: you don't get your money back, but if you eat

534
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:45,200
Speaker 1: for business and have a business discussion, you do. So.

535
00:30:45,320 --> 00:30:49,040
Speaker 1: For for for the pandemic in general, I found that

536
00:30:49,080 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 1: people were able to save more money. So so those

537
00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:56,440
Speaker 1: of us who were able to, you know, stick through depression,

538
00:30:56,520 --> 00:30:59,520
Speaker 1: because I think everybody had about with depression and fear

539
00:30:59,600 --> 00:31:01,760
Speaker 1: and so on and so forth. So for those who

540
00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:06,520
Speaker 1: were able to stick through and and stick together, they

541
00:31:06,560 --> 00:31:09,040
Speaker 1: were able to save more money. We save more money

542
00:31:09,040 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 1: than ever as a country and as a people, in

543
00:31:14,520 --> 00:31:21,120
Speaker 1: more billionaires were made last year than at any other

544
00:31:21,200 --> 00:31:24,600
Speaker 1: time in the history of the world. Something like four

545
00:31:24,680 --> 00:31:29,560
Speaker 1: hundred and ninety three billionaires were made. And so I

546
00:31:29,600 --> 00:31:32,960
Speaker 1: often say, you're eiven gonna be a millionaire, a billionaire,

547
00:31:33,360 --> 00:31:36,000
Speaker 1: or a witness. And we want to make teach to

548
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:38,840
Speaker 1: people are not just witnesses, that they actually get in

549
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,440
Speaker 1: the game. And that's what this whole show is about,

550
00:31:41,520 --> 00:31:44,080
Speaker 1: because I get frustrated. I was a segment at the

551
00:31:44,080 --> 00:31:46,840
Speaker 1: top of the show I call bragging. I'm encouraging people

552
00:31:46,880 --> 00:31:50,320
Speaker 1: to promote themselves because for some reason within the black community,

553
00:31:50,520 --> 00:31:53,280
Speaker 1: especially in the black community, in my community of color,

554
00:31:53,640 --> 00:31:55,480
Speaker 1: you know, we're told not to promote our said, we're

555
00:31:55,480 --> 00:31:57,400
Speaker 1: not told to talk about our success. And I tell

556
00:31:57,440 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 1: everybody we talkeet does it? You know, for it doesn't.

557
00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,200
Speaker 1: Any major corporation doesn't. And that's the way you mark it.

558
00:32:03,360 --> 00:32:06,120
Speaker 1: And you just said it right there, Rashan. You can

559
00:32:06,200 --> 00:32:10,240
Speaker 1: eat personally or you can eat smartly business wise. If

560
00:32:10,240 --> 00:32:12,719
Speaker 1: you smartly business wise, you can write that off. And

561
00:32:12,720 --> 00:32:15,520
Speaker 1: so we have to create our lives and create a

562
00:32:15,560 --> 00:32:18,600
Speaker 1: business model for our lives. And we create a business

563
00:32:18,600 --> 00:32:21,560
Speaker 1: model for our lives, and we can take advantage and

564
00:32:21,600 --> 00:32:25,800
Speaker 1: move up that little thousand there millionaire and billionaire club,

565
00:32:25,800 --> 00:32:29,800
Speaker 1: because that's how they live every day. Correct, this is

566
00:32:29,800 --> 00:32:33,080
Speaker 1: how they are living every single day. They are watching

567
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:36,240
Speaker 1: every single dollar. You know, some say money talk, but

568
00:32:36,320 --> 00:32:38,400
Speaker 1: I say money walks way from you quietly and you

569
00:32:38,400 --> 00:32:43,000
Speaker 1: don't know where it went. I'm about to roll bounce

570
00:32:43,080 --> 00:32:44,560
Speaker 1: up out of here, and when you come fami me,

571
00:32:44,600 --> 00:32:46,520
Speaker 1: I won't be there. It will be nice if it

572
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:49,040
Speaker 1: did talk, but it doesn't. And I say that with

573
00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,480
Speaker 1: last and humor, but it's the truth. We save money talk,

574
00:32:52,600 --> 00:32:55,320
Speaker 1: but it actually walks. And the other thing that happens

575
00:32:55,400 --> 00:32:57,720
Speaker 1: with rason, which is why they show us so important,

576
00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:02,760
Speaker 1: is because people say, it's just it's just ten dollars,

577
00:33:02,760 --> 00:33:05,600
Speaker 1: it's just twelve dollars, it's just a hundred dollars, and

578
00:33:05,640 --> 00:33:08,520
Speaker 1: by the time you add up all of those, it's

579
00:33:08,600 --> 00:33:12,560
Speaker 1: just that's where your wealth is. And so we have

580
00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,960
Speaker 1: to keep preaching. We have to keep teaching because control

581
00:33:16,160 --> 00:33:18,600
Speaker 1: is And the other part of this is that we're

582
00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,920
Speaker 1: doing right now, we're doing a state planners. Unfortunately, we've

583
00:33:21,960 --> 00:33:26,400
Speaker 1: seen many suicide. Unfortunately, we've seen many deaths, and so

584
00:33:26,480 --> 00:33:29,840
Speaker 1: now it's the time for everybody to understand that you

585
00:33:30,040 --> 00:33:33,160
Speaker 1: have an a state, your life insurance, your checond and

586
00:33:33,240 --> 00:33:36,640
Speaker 1: saves accounts, the car you drive, your clothing and all

587
00:33:36,680 --> 00:33:39,960
Speaker 1: of those things need to be in a proper plan

588
00:33:40,440 --> 00:33:43,360
Speaker 1: when you leave here. So so there's so many things

589
00:33:43,360 --> 00:33:46,400
Speaker 1: that this master class is just perfect for. Now, let's

590
00:33:46,400 --> 00:33:49,000
Speaker 1: talk about one of the great stories you always tell

591
00:33:49,040 --> 00:33:52,160
Speaker 1: me about employing your kids, because we got you know,

592
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:55,160
Speaker 1: we've got families out here with children. Uh, they don't

593
00:33:55,200 --> 00:33:57,200
Speaker 1: know what to do with them. But you have a

594
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:02,280
Speaker 1: strategy on how you can take advantage of employing your

595
00:34:02,360 --> 00:34:04,240
Speaker 1: kids and and being able to write it off on

596
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:09,880
Speaker 1: your taxes. Correct. Absolutely, I R S Publications FIS teams

597
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:14,160
Speaker 1: pay thirteen. And I have to say that because here's

598
00:34:14,160 --> 00:34:17,280
Speaker 1: what happens when you start to teach what the wealthy

599
00:34:17,360 --> 00:34:20,839
Speaker 1: do you know? Unfortunately, sometimes in our community we don't

600
00:34:20,880 --> 00:34:23,920
Speaker 1: believe anything. We think everything is a scam. You that

601
00:34:24,080 --> 00:34:27,360
Speaker 1: haters may say its blockers and crack their leg colors.

602
00:34:27,400 --> 00:34:30,080
Speaker 1: So whenever I quote this, I say, go to I

603
00:34:30,280 --> 00:34:34,160
Speaker 1: R S Publication SIS teams pay thirteen and the I

604
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:38,359
Speaker 1: R says that a child can work for parents in

605
00:34:38,400 --> 00:34:42,200
Speaker 1: their home based business. You can pay each child up

606
00:34:42,200 --> 00:34:45,440
Speaker 1: to twelve thousand, five hundred dollars a year. That's a

607
00:34:45,560 --> 00:34:48,799
Speaker 1: complete tax right off to you. Now, if you have

608
00:34:48,880 --> 00:34:52,400
Speaker 1: two children, that's twenty five thou dollars. If you have

609
00:34:52,600 --> 00:34:55,240
Speaker 1: three children, that's thirty seven thos or five hundred dollars

610
00:34:55,280 --> 00:34:59,239
Speaker 1: and tax right offs every year. That money is tax

611
00:34:59,320 --> 00:35:02,239
Speaker 1: free to the show. They pay no taxes on it.

612
00:35:03,320 --> 00:35:06,439
Speaker 1: And now because you have a back right off, they

613
00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:08,759
Speaker 1: can now go and buy all the things that you

614
00:35:08,800 --> 00:35:11,800
Speaker 1: were gonna pay for anyway. You're gonna pay for tuition,

615
00:35:12,080 --> 00:35:14,600
Speaker 1: you're gonna pay for school clothes, you're gonna pay for

616
00:35:14,640 --> 00:35:17,839
Speaker 1: that new I can't. You're gonna pay for that video game,

617
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:20,399
Speaker 1: you're gonna pay for football ms, and you're gonna pay

618
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:23,279
Speaker 1: for all those things. But the difference, now you get

619
00:35:23,280 --> 00:35:26,560
Speaker 1: your money back. Okay, Now I'm mad at you now

620
00:35:26,719 --> 00:35:30,040

Speaker 1: they can eliminate it because twelve thousand five. And it's

627
00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:52,399
Speaker 1: so smart what you just said, because you know it's

628
00:35:52,440 --> 00:35:55,840
Speaker 1: so smart. It's so smart what we because of the

629
00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,799
Speaker 1: fact that here I am, we we're sending kids to

630
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:01,799
Speaker 1: private school or okay, and they can it's a part

631
00:36:01,800 --> 00:36:03,439
Speaker 1: time job, that's what we call. It's just a part

632
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:06,319
Speaker 1: time job. And their parents they're doing part time work.

633
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:09,520
Speaker 1: That money, like you said, it's not taxable. They can

634
00:36:09,560 --> 00:36:12,440
Speaker 1: go and buy their clothes, they can, they can, they

635
00:36:12,440 --> 00:36:15,520
Speaker 1: can even start paying for their car down payment for

636
00:36:15,560 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 1: their education. Really, how did you I'm just gonna say this,

637
00:36:19,360 --> 00:36:21,200
Speaker 1: how did you And you said that when you give

638
00:36:21,200 --> 00:36:23,400
Speaker 1: advice like this, the first thing people give you a

639
00:36:23,400 --> 00:36:26,960
Speaker 1: little squinch eyes? How could that be? You? You got

640
00:36:27,080 --> 00:36:30,000
Speaker 1: to be that nobody does anything like that? How do

641
00:36:30,040 --> 00:36:33,560
Speaker 1: you overcome those nay says, those haters, those disbelievers. They

642
00:36:33,600 --> 00:36:37,440
Speaker 1: think that something that everybody is taking advantage of, they

643
00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:41,360
Speaker 1: don't think it's real. Well, well, the first thing is

644
00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:44,480
Speaker 1: if you show them the successful people who are doing it.

645
00:36:44,640 --> 00:36:48,560
Speaker 1: Because we're so afraid to get ahead, because we think

646
00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:50,960
Speaker 1: we're gonna be audited by the I R. S. So

647
00:36:51,040 --> 00:36:53,719
Speaker 1: we think something is illegal and so on and so

648
00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,480
Speaker 1: forth and so do you have to tell the truth? Yea.

649
00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:00,480
Speaker 1: Do you have to document every single thing? Yes? And

650
00:37:00,520 --> 00:37:04,440
Speaker 1: then people say, well, Lind that's hard work. I said, yes,

651
00:37:06,800 --> 00:37:10,360
Speaker 1: hard work rock here and you could be the CEO

652
00:37:10,480 --> 00:37:14,760
Speaker 1: before company. So now you're gonna take the hard work

653
00:37:15,160 --> 00:37:18,279
Speaker 1: and put it on getting your money back, but really shown.

654
00:37:18,320 --> 00:37:21,640
Speaker 1: And you know this, some people can't be told. They

655
00:37:21,680 --> 00:37:25,640
Speaker 1: have to be shown. And when people don't want to

656
00:37:25,680 --> 00:37:28,799
Speaker 1: follow too, I say, if that's working for you, keep

657
00:37:28,840 --> 00:37:31,399
Speaker 1: doing it. And what we do is we make sure

658
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:35,280
Speaker 1: that we developed good networks. Your network determines your network.

659
00:37:35,520 --> 00:37:39,560
Speaker 1: So I'll surround myself with people who are already who've

660
00:37:39,560 --> 00:37:42,000
Speaker 1: already been where I'm trying to go and who are

661
00:37:42,000 --> 00:37:44,600
Speaker 1: trying to get to where I've been. So that's how

662
00:37:44,600 --> 00:37:47,560
Speaker 1: we're going. Dr Lamb. When you call the show, now,

663
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:49,520
Speaker 1: you every time you call you, you make a dent

664
00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,600
Speaker 1: into this city. Like my producers came around the corner man.

665
00:37:52,719 --> 00:37:56,399
Speaker 1: She's just dropping some information because that we normally don't get.

666
00:37:56,560 --> 00:37:59,200
Speaker 1: And I think that's a that's a tragic thing to say,

667
00:37:59,239 --> 00:38:01,640
Speaker 1: because that's that's your truth. We we we the last

668
00:38:01,680 --> 00:38:03,520
Speaker 1: to get the information, you know, we last to know

669
00:38:03,560 --> 00:38:05,680
Speaker 1: about the COVID. You were the last to know about

670
00:38:05,680 --> 00:38:08,839
Speaker 1: the COVID test, we last to know about taxable the

671
00:38:09,000 --> 00:38:12,040
Speaker 1: tax deductions. Why how can we break that cycle of

672
00:38:12,120 --> 00:38:14,480
Speaker 1: being the last or that's too large a courtion to

673
00:38:14,520 --> 00:38:18,600
Speaker 1: ask you to even answer. No, I think it's a

674
00:38:18,719 --> 00:38:22,200
Speaker 1: very fair question, and I think we have to adjusttionship

675
00:38:22,360 --> 00:38:26,120
Speaker 1: what we're paying attention to, because let's be clear, Um,

676
00:38:26,480 --> 00:38:29,799
Speaker 1: as black people, we have wealth. Now we we are

677
00:38:29,840 --> 00:38:34,799
Speaker 1: spending it on designer gym, shoes, designer purses. Uh, We're

678
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:39,200
Speaker 1: spending on cars, furniture, jewelry. Will go spend hundreds and

679
00:38:39,280 --> 00:38:42,720
Speaker 1: hundreds of dollars for a concert ticket? Uh, and another

680
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:45,160
Speaker 1: several hundred dollars on an outfit anohing a couple of

681
00:38:45,200 --> 00:38:49,040
Speaker 1: hundreds on a pair of shoes. We will we have, Well,

682
00:38:50,480 --> 00:38:54,480
Speaker 1: we have it. It's about what we are doing with

683
00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:58,480
Speaker 1: it and if we're going to pay attention to the

684
00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:02,680
Speaker 1: the advice from people yourself quite correctly, and I think

685
00:39:02,840 --> 00:39:05,200
Speaker 1: you know, they're the saying that if you want people

686
00:39:06,040 --> 00:39:08,640
Speaker 1: too uh, if you want to hide something, put in

687
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:11,359
Speaker 1: a book because people aren't gonna read it. And I think,

688
00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:15,120
Speaker 1: unfortunately for us, we do not realize that. In the

689
00:39:15,239 --> 00:39:18,600
Speaker 1: same way. We can play a baby shower, we can

690
00:39:18,640 --> 00:39:22,360
Speaker 1: play a bridal shower, we play the biggest wedding. We

691
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:25,480
Speaker 1: have all thre of our cousins there eat up all

692
00:39:25,520 --> 00:39:30,320
Speaker 1: the food. But if we put that planning in our finances,

693
00:39:30,400 --> 00:39:32,400
Speaker 1: we could be just as successful. So I think we

694
00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,160
Speaker 1: just have to keep saying it, and keep putting it

695
00:39:35,160 --> 00:39:37,680
Speaker 1: out there and keep making it available to people. We'll

696
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:41,200
Speaker 1: be right back with more Money Making Conversations Masterclass with

697
00:39:41,320 --> 00:39:49,400
Speaker 1: Rashan McDonald. Now let's return to Money Making Conversations Masterclass

698
00:39:49,680 --> 00:39:52,520
Speaker 1: with Rashan McDonald. Well, you know the interesting thing when

699
00:39:52,560 --> 00:39:56,440
Speaker 1: you say that, I'm always always tell people like you know,

700
00:39:56,680 --> 00:39:58,640
Speaker 1: I can remember when you know, I was struggling to

701
00:39:58,680 --> 00:40:00,520
Speaker 1: buy two pac and I made a little more money.

702
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:04,320
Speaker 1: And guess what instead of instead of maintaining that money

703
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:07,920
Speaker 1: income and maintaining that lifestyle, I started accelerating it. I

704
00:40:07,960 --> 00:40:09,799
Speaker 1: mean a little money, got a better apartment. I made

705
00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:11,719
Speaker 1: a little more money, got a better car. You know,

706
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,600
Speaker 1: those are the things you naturally do. You you you you

707
00:40:14,600 --> 00:40:17,320
Speaker 1: you you you tend to reward yourself for your efforts,

708
00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:19,560
Speaker 1: which is a natural way to do, but you also

709
00:40:19,640 --> 00:40:23,000
Speaker 1: have to remember saving setting aside and you just said,

710
00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:26,000
Speaker 1: don't spend it all. Don't just just don't go out there,

711
00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:28,839
Speaker 1: don't have a plan to do on as we say,

712
00:40:28,920 --> 00:40:31,480
Speaker 1: those rainy days. And one of the great principles that

713
00:40:31,520 --> 00:40:35,080
Speaker 1: you talk about is that it limited everything possible. Live

714
00:40:35,160 --> 00:40:37,960
Speaker 1: below your means. Act if you have lost an income.

715
00:40:38,200 --> 00:40:40,120
Speaker 1: Can you talk about that? Just give some people those

716
00:40:40,280 --> 00:40:42,799
Speaker 1: drop some more nuggets that you can live a great life,

717
00:40:42,920 --> 00:40:45,480
Speaker 1: but act like it like you've lost your income and

718
00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:49,400
Speaker 1: you can live a longer great life. First of all,

719
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:53,400
Speaker 1: this is so good, Thank you for this question. People

720
00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:57,600
Speaker 1: do not understand that money will work harder for you

721
00:40:58,040 --> 00:41:02,000
Speaker 1: then you can ever work for it. On everybody who's

722
00:41:02,040 --> 00:41:04,120
Speaker 1: listening right now, to think about how hard you work,

723
00:41:05,040 --> 00:41:07,400
Speaker 1: how many days a week you have to work to

724
00:41:07,560 --> 00:41:11,200
Speaker 1: produce the income and and some hopefully it's enough, but

725
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:15,200
Speaker 1: many times it's not. Money is saying if you respect me,

726
00:41:16,080 --> 00:41:19,759
Speaker 1: if you learn about me, and if you protect me,

727
00:41:20,840 --> 00:41:24,080
Speaker 1: then I will work harder for you, then you can

728
00:41:24,120 --> 00:41:28,799
Speaker 1: work for me. We are not protecting our money when

729
00:41:28,960 --> 00:41:31,239
Speaker 1: it's been sitting in a bank account, or sitting in

730
00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:34,279
Speaker 1: a savings account, or we're constantly going out and spending it.

731
00:41:34,640 --> 00:41:37,919
Speaker 1: But money says, if you pay attention to me. Then

732
00:41:38,239 --> 00:41:42,880
Speaker 1: I will go out and duplicate and multiply and triple

733
00:41:43,120 --> 00:41:47,200
Speaker 1: and quadruple. I earned any six percent of anything. Percent

734
00:41:47,239 --> 00:41:51,839
Speaker 1: return on my investments last year was sean. And I

735
00:41:51,840 --> 00:41:55,440
Speaker 1: didn't even do any I didn't do any cryptocurrency. I

736
00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:58,880
Speaker 1: didn't have any other wild investments. I didn't even buy

737
00:41:58,960 --> 00:42:04,560
Speaker 1: when the stock market crash. But because we implemented a strategy.

738
00:42:04,640 --> 00:42:08,200
Speaker 1: And what everybody needs to know if you can implement

739
00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:10,560
Speaker 1: a strategy, so the first thing you do, it's spend

740
00:42:10,640 --> 00:42:13,160
Speaker 1: less money. I say, live by the ten, ten, thirty fifty.

741
00:42:13,239 --> 00:42:14,920
Speaker 1: The first tish per cent of every dollar you get,

742
00:42:14,960 --> 00:42:18,760
Speaker 1: you tied. The next ten percentce you save. The next

743
00:42:19,440 --> 00:42:24,200
Speaker 1: is cash on a separate debtor card for incidental like groceres, gas,

744
00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:27,040
Speaker 1: hair nails. If it doesn't fit, get rid of it.

745
00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:30,440
Speaker 1: Do not spend more money than you have available to spend.

746
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:34,400
Speaker 1: And the remaining fifty percent says, and you're checking account

747
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:38,200
Speaker 1: for your bills. If you have more than enough money,

748
00:42:38,840 --> 00:42:41,160
Speaker 1: that's not a license to go get a bigger house,

749
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:44,120
Speaker 1: a bigger car, bigger everything else. Because if you get

750
00:42:44,120 --> 00:42:46,919
Speaker 1: a raise and raise your expenses, you have more debt

751
00:42:46,960 --> 00:42:51,399
Speaker 1: and less freedom. You should first attack your debt, pay

752
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:53,360
Speaker 1: off your credit cards and so on and so forth.

753
00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:56,080
Speaker 1: Take a portion of your extra money, uh, you know,

754
00:42:56,200 --> 00:42:59,160
Speaker 1: save for a vacation, which really I say a business

755
00:42:59,160 --> 00:43:01,719
Speaker 1: trip where I can vacation on the businesship. So now

756
00:43:01,800 --> 00:43:04,760
Speaker 1: I can get that money back. So put us trying

757
00:43:04,800 --> 00:43:07,399
Speaker 1: to be in place for the extra money. And if

758
00:43:07,440 --> 00:43:10,319
Speaker 1: you don't have enough money to pay your bills, then

759
00:43:10,360 --> 00:43:14,040
Speaker 1: you must attract. You might have to take those kids

760
00:43:14,080 --> 00:43:16,480
Speaker 1: out of private school I did. You might have to

761
00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:18,839
Speaker 1: take them out of ballet I did. You might have

762
00:43:18,920 --> 00:43:21,880
Speaker 1: to put them in uh free programs at the search

763
00:43:21,960 --> 00:43:24,040
Speaker 1: I did. You might have to get a smaller place

764
00:43:24,040 --> 00:43:26,719
Speaker 1: to live. So so that's what we do. And then

765
00:43:26,800 --> 00:43:29,400
Speaker 1: when we can start to make our money work for us,

766
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,279
Speaker 1: we san. I love my money working for me. I

767
00:43:32,360 --> 00:43:34,279
Speaker 1: love it all we have. We have Lawrence on the

768
00:43:34,360 --> 00:43:37,600
Speaker 1: call here at large, and welcome to a reverend uh

769
00:43:37,719 --> 00:43:45,720
Speaker 1: Dr Lynn Richardson, Lawrence. Lawrence. She's preaching today, Lawrence, she's preaching,

770
00:43:45,920 --> 00:43:48,640
Speaker 1: so welcome to the altar. Brother. We're not asking for

771
00:43:48,680 --> 00:43:50,719
Speaker 1: no money, but we're giving advice. What you got what's

772
00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:56,480
Speaker 1: your question you're speaking of for your home based business?

773
00:43:57,000 --> 00:44:05,080
Speaker 1: What's the age limits. Is that that I absolutely love

774
00:44:05,280 --> 00:44:08,279
Speaker 1: this question because there has been a debate about the

775
00:44:08,280 --> 00:44:12,200
Speaker 1: age limit. People say, well, they have to be no

776
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:15,640
Speaker 1: younger than seven years old, and I say that is

777
00:44:15,680 --> 00:44:20,040
Speaker 1: completely untrue because the I R. S says that your

778
00:44:20,200 --> 00:44:23,719
Speaker 1: child can do any job that any other child can

779
00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:27,680
Speaker 1: do for a reasonable wage. So tell me what does

780
00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:31,279
Speaker 1: the Hudgee baby do? What does the Pampers baby do?

781
00:44:31,400 --> 00:44:36,080
Speaker 1: What does the Gerber baby do? Those babies models and

782
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:41,280
Speaker 1: they appear in commercials. The Department of Labor also says

783
00:44:41,320 --> 00:44:45,479
Speaker 1: that a child of any age. It specifically says any

784
00:44:45,520 --> 00:44:51,200
Speaker 1: age can work in TV, film, UM as a babysitter,

785
00:44:51,840 --> 00:44:55,279
Speaker 1: UM and their parents home based business without violating any

786
00:44:55,360 --> 00:44:58,800
Speaker 1: labor laws. So as long as the work isn't dangerous,

787
00:44:58,920 --> 00:45:02,759
Speaker 1: they can do it. So if you are in a

788
00:45:02,840 --> 00:45:05,800
Speaker 1: business and you need to promote your business on social media,

789
00:45:06,600 --> 00:45:10,000
Speaker 1: then your younger children can model. You're five and six

790
00:45:10,080 --> 00:45:12,680
Speaker 1: years old year old, they can help you with social media.

791
00:45:13,000 --> 00:45:15,040
Speaker 1: Your eight, nine and ten year olds can help you

792
00:45:15,080 --> 00:45:18,080
Speaker 1: with your databases. Your older children can help you at

793
00:45:18,080 --> 00:45:20,799
Speaker 1: events and planners on and so forth. So in my

794
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:23,480
Speaker 1: class how to hire your kids and get your money back,

795
00:45:24,040 --> 00:45:27,320
Speaker 1: I go through jobs, the prisons for children of every

796
00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:29,920
Speaker 1: age and different things that they can do to not

797
00:45:29,920 --> 00:45:32,520
Speaker 1: only help you in your home based Chrism, but also

798
00:45:32,680 --> 00:45:38,040
Speaker 1: learn important entrepreneurial skills. Lawrence, did they help you out? That?

Speaker 1: The reverend help you out? Reverend Dr Land Richardson, did

00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:44,680
