Speaker 1: get up at that time, because if I get up

29
00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,640
Speaker 1: at six, then I realized that at four to thirty

30
00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,920
Speaker 1: I get up, I kind of stumble around the house.

67
00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:10,840
Speaker 1: the reason I brought you on the show with George

68
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,639
Speaker 1: Georgie Fraser, Doctor George Fraser, is that he's a technical guy.

69
00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:17,880

70
00:03:17,919 --> 00:03:21,480
Speaker 1: style of teaching. Well, you are a common systence no,

71
00:03:21,480 --> 00:03:24,600
Speaker 1: no negative of doctor GEORGEI Frasier. But you break it down,

72
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:28,959
Speaker 1: it's such a common natural way that doesn't throw fear

73
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:29,480
Speaker 1: into people.

74
00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:30,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, talk about that.

75
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:33,360
Speaker 3: Yeah, you know, it's funny because you mentioned I was

76
00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:36,480
Speaker 3: a fifteen year banking executive. So first and foremost I

77
00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:39,840
Speaker 3: grew up in projects, right, And so growing up in

78
00:03:39,880 --> 00:03:43,080
Speaker 3: the projects, really didn't have money hustler you know, you know,

79
00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:46,400
Speaker 3: packing bags at a doing selling mix stats and T shirts.

80
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 2: So I know that entrepreneur life.

81
00:03:48,720 --> 00:03:50,600
Speaker 3: But I was fortunate to get into banking, and I

82
00:03:50,600 --> 00:03:53,280
Speaker 3: started at nineteen years old and did everything in banking

83
00:03:53,320 --> 00:03:56,360
Speaker 3: from personal bank or private banker, branch manager see over

84
00:03:56,440 --> 00:03:59,040
Speaker 3: credit Union, right. And when I realized when I was

85
00:03:59,080 --> 00:04:01,960
Speaker 3: a private bank, I was managing money for wealthy individuals

86
00:04:02,160 --> 00:04:04,400
Speaker 3: and they had a team. But then I thought about

87
00:04:04,400 --> 00:04:06,720
Speaker 3: my people back at home, and I said, we don't

88
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,160
Speaker 3: even got one person teaching about money. So I said,

89
00:04:09,280 --> 00:04:11,680
Speaker 3: you know, in the words of the honorable Sean called

90
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,160
Speaker 3: a jay Z, there's much bigger issues in the world.

91
00:04:14,240 --> 00:04:16,640
Speaker 2: I know, But I first had to take care of

92
00:04:16,680 --> 00:04:17,080
Speaker 2: the world.

93
00:04:17,120 --> 00:04:19,840
Speaker 3: I know, and So for me, I said, listen, if

94
00:04:19,880 --> 00:04:23,640
Speaker 3: I'm a guy who's from the neighborhood, I understand hip hop,

95
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:26,120
Speaker 3: I understand the language. I understand you know what we

96
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 3: need from our community. And you know I was able

97
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:31,120
Speaker 3: to make it to the c suite and from a

98
00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,080
Speaker 3: banking perspective, what if I just took that knowledge and

99
00:04:34,120 --> 00:04:37,120
Speaker 3: I brought it back to our people and as they say,

100
00:04:37,320 --> 00:04:39,839
Speaker 3: put the medicine in the candy, right, and so that

101
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:42,400
Speaker 3: and and that's been my life, like that is my life.

102
00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:44,880
Speaker 2: Mission is exactly what doctor.

103
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,000
Speaker 3: Fraser was saying was really you know, you know, closing

104
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:51,599
Speaker 3: that wealth gap specifically for our people, because we have,

105
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,479
Speaker 3: you know, everything that we need to live the best

106
00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 3: possible life. We just need the education and we need

107
00:04:57,640 --> 00:04:59,960
Speaker 3: we need that education in a way that we can

108
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:03,200
Speaker 3: understand it. And then once we understand it, then there's

109
00:05:03,240 --> 00:05:05,279
Speaker 3: no excuse while we're not implementing it.

110

132
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:09,160
Speaker 2: off a little bit right quick, because you said a

133
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,560
Speaker 2: word that I ever want you to use when you're

134
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:16,120
Speaker 2: talking about your investment, the words scheme. Yes, yeah, see

135

136
00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:20,200
Speaker 1: But we're in the same way. You got you got,

137
00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:23,760
Speaker 1: she said, scheme. I said, I've.

138
00:06:23,560 --> 00:06:26,200
Speaker 2: Never used the word scheme playing in my financial future.

139
00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:28,360
Speaker 2: I'm afraid that somebody go with the logo come in

140
00:06:28,400 --> 00:06:29,680
Speaker 2: through the back door, in the front door.

141
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,280
Speaker 4: I repra.

142
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,320
Speaker 2: I don't do that. Hustle thought, yeah, yeah, yeah, that's

143
00:06:35,360 --> 00:06:37,000
Speaker 2: not better either. That's not better either.

144
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:38,400
Speaker 5: You know.

145
00:06:38,440 --> 00:06:42,840
Speaker 3: The the here's the here's the thing is that you know,

146
00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:47,640
Speaker 3: focus on what you really want to focus on, and

147
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:51,039
Speaker 3: not necessarily the money aspect of it, right, because like

148
00:06:51,080 --> 00:06:54,040
Speaker 3: you said, you have the nine to five, right, and

149
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:57,240
Speaker 3: then now you're trying to find another way to create

150
00:06:57,279 --> 00:07:00,839
Speaker 3: passive income. I have been in that same spot before,

151
00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:02,800
Speaker 3: and I have been in your spot where I was

152
00:07:02,839 --> 00:07:04,919
Speaker 3: trying different things with my in and this and and that.

153
00:07:05,240 --> 00:07:07,760
Speaker 3: And the thing that happened was I said, you know what,

154
00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:12,080
Speaker 3: forget the money, right, meaning that if I'm only chasing money,

155
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:14,960
Speaker 3: then I am wasting my time because money's.

156
00:07:14,680 --> 00:07:15,240
Speaker 2: Gonna come and go.

157
00:07:15,280 --> 00:07:17,600
Speaker 3: You're gonna realize that money's gonna come and go. But

158
00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:21,840
Speaker 3: if you chase after something that you are aligned with,

159
00:07:22,000 --> 00:07:24,680
Speaker 3: not hustling, right, not a scheme, but I want you

160
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,120
Speaker 3: to be aligned with what you're doing.

161
00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 4: Right.

162
00:07:26,360 --> 00:07:28,920
Speaker 2: So I'll give you an example. So for me, I said, hey,

163
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:29,560
Speaker 2: I want.

164
00:07:29,360 --> 00:07:33,320
Speaker 3: To educate people, but me educating people, I said, how

165
00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,240
Speaker 3: am I gonna pay I got married, I got two kids.

166
00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:38,680
Speaker 3: How am I gonna pay the bills by just educating?

167
00:07:39,000 --> 00:07:41,680
Speaker 2: But my passion. I was going to inner city schools.

168
00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:45,040
Speaker 3: I was teaching financial literacy, and I said, how can

169
00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:48,840
Speaker 3: I turn my passion into a business, right, not a

170
00:07:48,880 --> 00:07:52,360
Speaker 3: side hustle, not a scheme, but actual business? And then

171
00:07:52,360 --> 00:07:54,360
Speaker 3: I said, oh, let me write a book. Then I said,

172
00:07:54,440 --> 00:07:55,960
Speaker 3: let me go, you know, go to schools in and

173
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,480
Speaker 3: become a speaker. Let me go correct, right, And I

174
00:07:58,520 --> 00:08:00,520
Speaker 3: think that that's what you need to find out first

175
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:03,200
Speaker 3: and foremost is what are you passionate about?

176
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:07,160
Speaker 2: And does that passion feel a need? And how can

177
00:08:07,200 --> 00:08:08,000
Speaker 2: you feel that need?

178
00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,200
Speaker 3: Once you do that and you start making money, then

179
00:08:11,280 --> 00:08:14,239
Speaker 3: let's start talking about how we could take that money,

180
00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:17,360
Speaker 3: like doctor Fraser said, and start investing it in different

181
00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,320
Speaker 3: vehicles so that money could grow. But first, but if

182
00:08:20,320 --> 00:08:24,080
Speaker 3: you but if you're after the money first, I personally wouldn't.

183
00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 2: Say to do that.

184
00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:27,360
Speaker 3: I would say, find that passion, find how you that

185
00:08:27,400 --> 00:08:30,080
Speaker 3: passion could feel a need, and once you have that

186
00:08:30,240 --> 00:08:32,679
Speaker 3: need filled that you start making money from it. Now

187
00:08:32,760 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 3: take some of that money and start investing in other places.

188
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,000
Speaker 2: So it could grow and I'm just follow this up chantail.

189
00:08:38,559 --> 00:08:39,400
Speaker 2: Money is interesting.

190
00:08:39,520 --> 00:08:43,200
Speaker 1: Money is really interesting because it makes people make bad

191
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:46,559
Speaker 1: decision and good decisions. Okay, the bad decision is that

192
00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:50,160
Speaker 1: if you invest something that you can't lose, and a

193
00:08:50,160 --> 00:08:51,319
Speaker 1: lot of people don't understand that.

194
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:52,839
Speaker 2: See, you can invest if you.

195
00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:55,800
Speaker 1: If your time is valuable, which it should be, people

196
00:08:55,880 --> 00:08:58,520
Speaker 1: invest it, but they'll understand that investment that you can lose,

197
00:08:58,559 --> 00:08:59,360
Speaker 1: you can't get time back.

198
00:08:59,840 --> 00:09:00,480
Speaker 2: And so when you.

199
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:03,400
Speaker 1: Put it out there, and so people understand that money

200
00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:07,720
Speaker 1: is the same thing. And so I run the opportunity

201
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:09,400
Speaker 1: to route too. I will tell people all the time,

202
00:09:09,440 --> 00:09:11,760
Speaker 1: I said, when I go into the grocery store, my

203
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,640
Speaker 1: goal has always been I just buy what I want.

204
00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,520
Speaker 1: I technically don't even look at the price. Now I

205
00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:20,760
Speaker 1: do shop with coupons. If I have some coupons, I

206
00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,160
Speaker 1: go in there make sure if I got two eggs

207
00:09:23,240 --> 00:09:25,920
Speaker 1: or seventy five cents off of of milk or I

208
00:09:25,960 --> 00:09:26,520
Speaker 1: will do that.

209
00:09:26,520 --> 00:09:28,600
Speaker 2: That's when I'm looking for a price. But technically I'm

210
00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:29,199
Speaker 2: just going in there.

211
00:09:29,200 --> 00:09:31,400
Speaker 1: But I'm also a guy who will take advantage of

212
00:09:31,480 --> 00:09:34,160
Speaker 1: an opportunity. And I'm just telling you, is that just

213
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:37,960
Speaker 1: reframe your thought process. Don't use words like hustle, don't

214
00:09:38,040 --> 00:09:41,080
Speaker 1: use words like scheme, because you need to articulate your

215
00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:43,640
Speaker 1: conversation to people who appreciate the value of a plan.

216
00:09:44,280 --> 00:09:47,760
Speaker 1: And right now, just put your plan in action. Realize

217
00:09:47,920 --> 00:09:51,000
Speaker 1: your time is an investment, and then you should outline

218
00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 1: your time with a schedule, and that schedule has to

219
00:09:54,040 --> 00:09:56,800
Speaker 1: be consistent. And when it's consistent, like I said earlier,

220
00:09:56,800 --> 00:09:58,400
Speaker 1: I get up at four thirty every day.

221
00:09:58,240 --> 00:10:00,360
Speaker 2: Monday through Friday. That's my winning time.

222
00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,760
Speaker 1: Your winny time might be five thirty, your windy time

223
00:10:02,800 --> 00:10:05,040
Speaker 1: might be six thirty. But what your winning time can

224
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:08,760
Speaker 1: be four thirty on Tuesday, six o'clock on Wednesday, seven

225
00:10:08,800 --> 00:10:12,199
Speaker 1: o'clock on Thursday, three o'clock on Friday. Your body and

226
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:14,920
Speaker 1: your mind be whack. And so so I just want

Speaker 2: Is that all right, Chantell?

234
00:10:32,480 --> 00:10:35,360
Speaker 4: Most definitely, I guess I want to say to be

235
00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:37,800
Speaker 4: able to put back into my four one. My dad

236
00:10:37,840 --> 00:10:39,839
Speaker 4: had to break it down. I was cooeless and didn't

237
00:10:39,840 --> 00:10:43,320
Speaker 4: know that investing into your four one is not only

238
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:45,640
Speaker 4: coming out of a paycheck. I thought. I didn't know

239
00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:47,040
Speaker 4: that it could just come out of your pocket and

240
00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:50,760
Speaker 4: be put back into investing in retiring. I was new

241
00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,040
Speaker 4: to that, Like, oh really, I didn't. I wasn't just

242
00:10:53,080 --> 00:10:54,480
Speaker 4: made away, you know, you don't learn these things in

243
00:10:54,559 --> 00:10:56,720
Speaker 4: high school. And all my passion is to have the

244
00:10:56,760 --> 00:10:59,960
Speaker 4: business and to have different entities under it. That'll be

245
00:11:00,120 --> 00:11:03,360
Speaker 4: my my my, and to help out others, you know,

246
00:11:03,440 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 4: where I can maybe we can split and go on

247
00:11:05,640 --> 00:11:08,600
Speaker 4: to the next ATM or the next endeavor I want

248
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:10,640
Speaker 4: to give back as well, or you know, kind of

249
00:11:11,480 --> 00:11:14,800
Speaker 4: put somebody onto you know, the business as well, so

250
00:11:14,920 --> 00:11:17,400
Speaker 4: they're they're able to make pass income.

251
00:11:17,559 --> 00:11:17,760
Speaker 2: Yeah.

252
00:11:17,760 --> 00:11:19,680
Speaker 3: And the one the one thing I would say, chantel

253
00:11:19,840 --> 00:11:23,319
Speaker 3: is really about the research, you know, because you know,

254
00:11:23,360 --> 00:11:27,520
Speaker 3: whatever you focus on, there's somebody right now who's making

255
00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:31,160
Speaker 3: millions of dollars by by selling plastic pins, right and

256
00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:33,719
Speaker 3: so it's really what you focus on, and so understanding

257
00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:36,240
Speaker 3: what it's going to take to to invest in the

258
00:11:36,280 --> 00:11:38,920
Speaker 3: ATM business. Uh, you know what time you have to

259
00:11:38,960 --> 00:11:41,520
Speaker 3: dedicate to it, and then also you know what the

260
00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:44,400
Speaker 3: returns are and if you're willing to do what it

261
00:11:44,480 --> 00:11:46,880
Speaker 3: takes or are you going to have to hire someone?

262
00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:49,600
Speaker 3: So really, as Rashaun mentioned, it's really the plan and

263
00:11:49,640 --> 00:11:51,760
Speaker 3: making sure you have the plan first. And then once

264
00:11:51,800 --> 00:11:54,200
Speaker 3: you have the plan, and and once the plan is

265
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:57,480
Speaker 3: sound and it's viable, I would say execute.

266
00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:01,400
Speaker 1: And then and then you execute with the whole idea

267
00:12:01,440 --> 00:12:03,880
Speaker 1: that you cannot lose. But if you lose, don't let

268
00:12:03,960 --> 00:12:07,280
Speaker 1: it traumatize you. Because I have lost. I have lost,

269
00:12:07,559 --> 00:12:09,520
Speaker 1: and I tell people all the time. That's why we're

270
00:12:09,520 --> 00:12:11,520
Speaker 1: trying to share my flaws when I talk to people,

271
00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:13,640
Speaker 1: because if you look at a person who always says

272
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:16,120
Speaker 1: he's successful all the time, he's lying. And if you

273
00:12:16,120 --> 00:12:18,360
Speaker 1: look at the person who don't want to share their flaws,

274
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:20,400
Speaker 1: stop talking to him. And I want to thank you

275
00:12:20,440 --> 00:12:22,640

292
00:13:21,080 --> 00:13:23,199
Speaker 1: But my ass cast, you know, like I was saying earlier,

293
00:13:23,200 --> 00:13:26,120
Speaker 1: you know, you're one of the nationest top financial educators,

294
00:13:26,320 --> 00:13:30,880
Speaker 1: personal finance expert, business coach, and motivational speakers. And that

295
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,880
Speaker 1: whole motivational speaking part is what I want to get

296
00:13:33,920 --> 00:13:36,520
Speaker 1: into right now because so many people want to hear

297
00:13:36,679 --> 00:13:39,400
Speaker 1: the word like in church now they want to hear

298
00:13:39,640 --> 00:13:41,920
Speaker 1: the Bible. So many people want to hear how to

299
00:13:41,960 --> 00:13:44,000
Speaker 1: be successful, but don't want to put the work in

300
00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:46,200
Speaker 1: or follow the rules of the Bible. It's the same

301
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:47,800
Speaker 1: thing in the financial world that you in.

302
00:13:48,320 --> 00:13:49,400
Speaker 2: You people come.

303
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,400
Speaker 1: Up with you, take photos with you, say, man, how

304
00:13:51,400 --> 00:13:53,920
Speaker 1: can I want to give you the business card? What

305
00:13:54,080 --> 00:13:58,360
Speaker 1: frustrates you most when people don't do what you're advising

306
00:13:58,440 --> 00:14:00,480
Speaker 1: to do because you can't tell them what you advise.

307
00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:02,960
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I think I think the most frustrating part

308
00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:07,560
Speaker 3: is uh, just people complaining, you know, uh, because because

309
00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,560
Speaker 3: here's the deal, because uh, we all have a choice,

310
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:17,680
Speaker 3: right Uh. Being broke is difficult, being successful is difficult.

311
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:20,240
Speaker 2: You just gotta choose the difficult that you want.

312
00:14:20,480 --> 00:14:22,680
Speaker 3: And so if you choose the difficult, that says, hey,

313
00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:24,760
Speaker 3: I'm gonna be broke, I'm not gonna know how to

314
00:14:24,880 --> 00:14:26,160
Speaker 3: you know, take care of my family.

315
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:28,600
Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'm gonna worry about how to make ends

316
00:14:28,640 --> 00:14:29,800
Speaker 2: meet and things of that nature.

317
00:14:30,000 --> 00:14:33,440
Speaker 3: And there's somebody who's taking time to show you, you know,

318
00:14:33,520 --> 00:14:35,360
Speaker 3: how to you know, how to do that, how to

319
00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:38,000
Speaker 3: get to the next level of life, and just to

320
00:14:38,200 --> 00:14:41,080
Speaker 3: you know, be somebody who is taking up that knowledge

321
00:14:41,120 --> 00:14:43,640
Speaker 3: and not implementing. I think that's the most frustrating part

322
00:14:44,120 --> 00:14:47,240
Speaker 3: because there's a lot of people out there that want

323
00:14:47,280 --> 00:14:51,120
Speaker 3: the information, who would love to have somebody give them

324
00:14:51,120 --> 00:14:54,440
Speaker 3: the information. And so if you are, you know, you know,

325
00:14:54,520 --> 00:14:56,960
Speaker 3: wasting time, you're you're in the you're in the way

326
00:14:57,280 --> 00:15:00,360
Speaker 3: of somebody else who is willing to implement. So other

327
00:15:00,400 --> 00:15:02,120
Speaker 3: than that, I think that's the frustrating part. But the

328
00:15:02,120 --> 00:15:05,360
Speaker 3: truth of the matter too is I also know that

329
00:15:05,400 --> 00:15:07,960
Speaker 3: it doesn't happen overnight, right, right, And so I know

330
00:15:08,080 --> 00:15:11,880
Speaker 3: that there are people who, you know, what we're saying

331
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:15,640
Speaker 3: is shaking up their mindset, right, Like doctor Fraze just says,

332
00:15:16,200 --> 00:15:17,280
Speaker 3: don't waste.

333
00:15:16,920 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 2: Your time on savings.

334
00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:18,560
Speaker 6: Right.

335
00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:21,240
Speaker 3: He didn't say that verbatim, but he's saying, listen, you

336
00:15:21,320 --> 00:15:24,200
Speaker 3: are wasting your time on you know, if you're saving

337
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,640
Speaker 3: your month for percent, right, half a percent, right, so

338
00:15:26,680 --> 00:15:30,040
Speaker 3: it's not even one percent, it's half of eight percent, right.

339
00:15:30,400 --> 00:15:33,160
Speaker 3: And so as a former fifteen year big and executive,

340
00:15:33,520 --> 00:15:36,440
Speaker 3: I approve that message. But you gotta think, right, you

341
00:15:36,480 --> 00:15:39,000
Speaker 3: gotta think in our neighborhood that like, like that's what

342
00:15:39,080 --> 00:15:42,080
Speaker 3: they told us, they said, to go to work, work hard,

343
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:44,720
Speaker 3: save your money. But if you save your money, you're

344
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:46,680
Speaker 3: losing money. And I think that, you know, it's a

345
00:15:46,680 --> 00:15:50,480
Speaker 3: whole big paradigm shift that's happening. And so I get it.

346
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 3: We're shaking up people's world.

347
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:52,680
Speaker 2: That's all they knew.

348
00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:57,120
Speaker 3: They grandmothers and parents are telling them save, save, save, safe, save,

349
00:15:57,440 --> 00:16:00,680
Speaker 3: And now the paradigm is invest invest in. That's and

350
00:16:00,720 --> 00:16:03,120
Speaker 3: so people might not get it on the first time.

351
00:16:03,440 --> 00:16:07,080
Speaker 3: And so for me, I'm happy that the conversations are happy,

352
00:16:07,200 --> 00:16:10,240
Speaker 3: the money making conversations are happening. Uh and and and

353
00:16:10,480 --> 00:16:12,560
Speaker 3: I know eventually we got we just gotta make it.

354
00:16:12,600 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 3: We gotta keep having a conversation until it becomes cool.

355
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:16,640
Speaker 2: It like what Chanteraira was talking about the four one k.

356
00:16:16,880 --> 00:16:20,160
Speaker 1: Yeah, your your employer pays some, she pays some, take

357
00:16:20,160 --> 00:16:21,960
Speaker 1: it out of your check fifty dollars a month. It

358
00:16:22,000 --> 00:16:25,520
Speaker 1: adds up in a big way. I got Eric from Shamblee.

359
00:16:25,760 --> 00:16:28,480
Speaker 1: He has a banking with a basic investment conversation.

360
00:16:29,000 --> 00:16:30,560
Speaker 2: Question. Eric from Shamblee.

361
00:16:30,680 --> 00:16:34,480
Speaker 1: You're on the call with Shan McDonald and financial guru

362
00:16:34,640 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 1: and a motivator, mister Ashcash.

363
00:16:37,560 --> 00:16:38,200
Speaker 2: What's your question?

364
00:16:38,600 --> 00:16:44,760
Speaker 7: Okay, Well, I mean I'm an artist and I also

365
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:48,480
Speaker 7: want to try to work on licensing my art and promoted.

366
00:16:48,600 --> 00:16:54,280
Speaker 7: But that's my passion to make money. But I know

367
00:16:54,640 --> 00:16:57,480
Speaker 7: all the things that you're talking about, I don't know

368
00:16:57,560 --> 00:17:01,200
Speaker 7: anything about. I can't I don't know a pic of it,

369
00:17:01,280 --> 00:17:04,720
Speaker 7: you know, to say, Okay, I'm gonna add water and

370
00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:07,320
Speaker 7: sugar and I just start making a money take yep.

371
00:17:08,240 --> 00:17:10,880
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, So Eric, thank you, thank you for that.

372
00:17:11,320 --> 00:17:13,880
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, now for sure, and thank you for that vulnerability.

373
00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:14,160
Speaker 2: Right.

374
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:17,040
Speaker 3: What I would say is this, I would say, make

375
00:17:17,119 --> 00:17:19,440
Speaker 3: sure that you have a financial plan.

376
00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:20,200
Speaker 2: And what does that mean.

377
00:17:21,160 --> 00:17:23,879
Speaker 3: You know, when you get paid, whatever you do, whether

378
00:17:24,440 --> 00:17:26,440
Speaker 3: you still have a nine to five, whether it's your art,

379
00:17:26,480 --> 00:17:28,640
Speaker 3: whenever you get paid, what I want you to do

380
00:17:29,160 --> 00:17:32,720
Speaker 3: is put a certain amount aside, right, And so whether

381
00:17:32,840 --> 00:17:36,680
Speaker 3: it's thirty percent, ten percent, find out.

382
00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:39,400
Speaker 2: An amount that you're comfortable with. Put that aside.

383
00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:41,400
Speaker 3: And the first thing you're gonna do is you're gonna

384
00:17:41,600 --> 00:17:43,679
Speaker 3: you're gonna start building what I like to call your

385
00:17:43,720 --> 00:17:47,119
Speaker 3: financial freedom fund. And what that means is start to

386
00:17:47,200 --> 00:17:50,399
Speaker 3: build up an account that's six to eight months of expenses.

387
00:17:50,520 --> 00:17:50,720
Speaker 2: Right.

388
00:17:50,960 --> 00:17:53,720
Speaker 3: And so so we're not saying savings accounts are bad.

389
00:17:54,080 --> 00:17:57,199
Speaker 3: We're saying that actually good because they can save you,

390
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,800
Speaker 3: you know, in case of an emergency. So start building

391
00:17:59,840 --> 00:18:02,760
Speaker 3: a financial freedom fund. But then also what you need

392
00:18:02,800 --> 00:18:05,879
Speaker 3: to start doing is is after or while you're building

393
00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:08,879
Speaker 3: that financial freedom fund. The truth of the matter is

394
00:18:08,880 --> 00:18:12,159
Speaker 3: that no one's gonna become financially free if they don't invest,

395
00:18:12,240 --> 00:18:15,680
Speaker 3: if they don't change their relationship with money. Because right now,

396
00:18:15,720 --> 00:18:18,520
Speaker 3: our relationship is that we're gonna work hard for money.

397
00:18:18,720 --> 00:18:21,200
Speaker 3: But the true relationship should be money should work hard

398
00:18:21,200 --> 00:18:23,719
Speaker 3: for you. And the only way that happens is if

399
00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:26,440
Speaker 3: you invest right. And so as you're building your financial

400
00:18:26,480 --> 00:18:29,520
Speaker 3: freedom fund, start to put money aside that you're gonna

401
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:33,320
Speaker 3: start investing. And the good thing about doing it every

402
00:18:33,320 --> 00:18:35,840
Speaker 3: time you get paid is that you're not just taking

403
00:18:35,840 --> 00:18:36,520
Speaker 3: a lump sum.

404
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:38,920
Speaker 2: You're doing what's called dollar cost averaging.

405
00:18:39,080 --> 00:18:41,800
Speaker 3: So whether you're investing in crypto, if you're investing in

406
00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:44,760
Speaker 3: the stock market, whatever you're investing in, you're actually doing

407
00:18:44,800 --> 00:18:47,240
Speaker 3: it on a periodic basis. And as you do it

408
00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:50,600
Speaker 3: on that periodic basic it's actually gonna grow for you.

409
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:53,560
Speaker 3: But the number one thing before you invest a dollar

410
00:18:54,400 --> 00:18:59,240
Speaker 3: is to understand, you know, to have the information, the

411
00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:01,800
Speaker 3: knowledge on how to invest. And so there are tons

412
00:19:01,840 --> 00:19:05,560
Speaker 3: of podcasts out there, there's a lot of you know,

413
00:19:06,160 --> 00:19:10,399
Speaker 3: financial shows, out there. There are free resources on YouTube

414
00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,600
Speaker 3: that can actually teach you the basics of how to

415
00:19:13,640 --> 00:19:16,520
Speaker 3: get into it. I would start there and then and

416
00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:18,400
Speaker 3: and and then you start to build, you know, build

417
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,720
Speaker 3: from there. Absolutely. I was just want to say.

418
00:19:20,520 --> 00:19:22,240
Speaker 2: This on my nd rate.

419
00:19:22,359 --> 00:19:25,560
Speaker 8: Now I've got I've got a little bit of money

420
00:19:25,680 --> 00:19:28,040
Speaker 8: right sitting in the drawer doing nothing.

421
00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:30,360
Speaker 2: I hope it's not really sitting in the drawer. It's

422
00:19:30,359 --> 00:19:32,480
Speaker 2: not really in a drawer, is It's not really in

423
00:19:32,560 --> 00:19:35,400
Speaker 2: the drawer? Okay? Cool? We really need to talk.

424
00:19:35,240 --> 00:19:38,440
Speaker 1: Offline and don't let nobody at track this phone either

425
00:19:38,680 --> 00:19:40,679
Speaker 1: because I'm done. I don't need to be on Channel

426
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:43,720
Speaker 1: five tonight because somebody didn't sixty nine on my number.

427
00:19:44,720 --> 00:19:46,879
Speaker 8: You said it's doing you know what I'm saying. This

428
00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:50,639
Speaker 8: money is just doing nothing. I mean it's only like

429
00:19:50,720 --> 00:19:52,679
Speaker 8: fifteen hundred dollars, but it's doing nothing.

430
00:19:52,800 --> 00:19:54,719
Speaker 2: Right, But that's money though they could be stuff. Did

431
00:19:54,760 --> 00:19:57,760
Speaker 2: you not hear? What? What just take three hundred dollars

432
00:19:57,800 --> 00:19:58,919
Speaker 2: to go to cryptocurrency?

433
00:19:59,240 --> 00:20:00,959
Speaker 1: I just want to give this advice to you and

434
00:20:01,000 --> 00:20:03,119
Speaker 1: everybody because we want to go to some more callers

435
00:20:03,160 --> 00:20:05,240
Speaker 1: and thank everybody for calling in on the show, and

436
00:20:05,320 --> 00:20:08,720
Speaker 1: especially thank you, because you're being honest about yourself, and

437
00:20:08,760 --> 00:20:10,639
Speaker 1: the only way you can move ahead is being honest

438
00:20:10,680 --> 00:20:15,119
Speaker 1: about your situation. What always drives me is about people

439
00:20:15,119 --> 00:20:18,280
Speaker 1: who go to church they tied. We see, God teaches

440
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:21,280
Speaker 1: you how to save. He gives you the discipline to save,

441
00:20:21,320 --> 00:20:23,159
Speaker 1: but you do it for the church, but don't do

442
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:25,440
Speaker 1: it for yourself. So you take that same discipline. So

443
00:20:25,800 --> 00:20:27,760
Speaker 1: when I tell people who in the church put a

444
00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:29,440
Speaker 1: little money inside, they look at me like, I ain't

445
00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,480
Speaker 1: got no money, but you got money for church though.

446
00:20:31,880 --> 00:20:34,680
Speaker 1: So I'm telling you take that same principle, that same

447
00:20:34,720 --> 00:20:37,800
Speaker 1: discipline that you have for church, and apply to yourself,

448
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:42,160
Speaker 1: and you'll win twice the God blessing and the personal blessing.

449
00:20:42,359 --> 00:20:43,240
Speaker 2: That's all I'm saying.

450
00:20:43,359 --> 00:20:45,119
Speaker 1: And so if you take advantage of that knowledge that

451
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,040
Speaker 1: we're trying to give you, and what you want to

452
00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:48,040
Speaker 1: win with is that.

453
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:49,440
Speaker 2: I value your call.

454
00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:52,560
Speaker 1: I value your knowledge, But the discipline is what most

455
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:54,760
Speaker 1: people make a mistake on. And I just wanted to

456
00:20:54,800 --> 00:20:56,320
Speaker 1: do a shout out to the people who go to

457
00:20:56,400 --> 00:20:58,720
Speaker 1: church to the people who do tie. Those are the

458
00:20:58,760 --> 00:21:01,480
Speaker 1: same people. And you know, we'll tell you. I don't

459
00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:03,359
Speaker 1: know how I'm gonna do that. I don't know how

460
00:21:03,359 --> 00:21:06,080
Speaker 1: I'm gonna pull together twenty dollars a week when you

461
00:21:06,160 --> 00:21:08,320
Speaker 1: give it twenty dollars to the church every week, and

462
00:21:08,400 --> 00:21:10,880
Speaker 1: that's forty dollars. All I'm saying is fifty dollars a month,

463
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:12,960
Speaker 1: So you can get to that fifty dollars. And so

464
00:21:13,400 --> 00:21:16,680
Speaker 1: all I've ever said, and all Ash Cash is always saying,

465
00:21:16,800 --> 00:21:19,399
Speaker 1: is common sense. That's why I love this brother. He

466
00:21:19,480 --> 00:21:22,239
Speaker 1: talks from a commonsense perspective. Now we have Donald and

467
00:21:22,320 --> 00:21:25,280
Speaker 1: Conyer's he's a disabled veteran. How you doing and thank

468
00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:26,560
Speaker 1: you for serving our country? How you doing?

469
00:21:26,600 --> 00:21:26,879
Speaker 2: Donald?

470
00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:29,280
Speaker 5: I'm good, I'm good.

471
00:21:29,840 --> 00:21:31,440
Speaker 7: Are you I'm really good?

472
00:21:31,440 --> 00:21:33,040
Speaker 1: You're on the call with Ash Cash, and of course

473
00:21:33,080 --> 00:21:35,200
Speaker 1: i'm Rasean mcdonne's what's your what's your question?

474
00:21:36,760 --> 00:21:40,240
Speaker 5: Yes? I was asking, as a veteran on a income,

475
00:21:41,320 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 5: how would I get into the game. I'm unemployable, so

476
00:21:44,359 --> 00:21:47,840
Speaker 5: I'm not able to work. I just get faced income

477
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:50,480
Speaker 5: every month. So how would I be able to get

478
00:21:50,480 --> 00:21:54,439
Speaker 5: into that and not injure myself financially to take care

479
00:21:54,480 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 5: of my other financial obligation.

480
00:21:56,520 --> 00:21:58,879
Speaker 3: Yeah, now that's a great question, and thank you for

481
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:01,840
Speaker 3: your service. So what I what I would say is

482
00:22:02,160 --> 00:22:05,000
Speaker 3: similar to what I was telling mister Eric was really

483
00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:06,400
Speaker 3: you know, really about you know.

484
00:22:06,400 --> 00:22:08,280
Speaker 2: Taking money from the side, right.

485
00:22:09,240 --> 00:22:11,320
Speaker 3: And what happens is though when you are on a

486
00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,000
Speaker 3: fixed income, there's only two two ways, right, that you

487
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:16,760
Speaker 3: could or three ways to increase your bottom line. You

488
00:22:16,880 --> 00:22:21,920
Speaker 3: either decrease expenses, increase your income, or do both things.

489
00:22:22,000 --> 00:22:22,200
Speaker 2: Right.

490
00:22:22,400 --> 00:22:24,520
Speaker 3: And so if you're on a fixed income, what I

491
00:22:24,520 --> 00:22:26,560
Speaker 3: would say is the first thing is to look at

492
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:29,480
Speaker 3: your expenses and see, you know, what ways that you

493
00:22:29,520 --> 00:22:32,239
Speaker 3: could cut back some right, what ways can you use

494
00:22:33,760 --> 00:22:36,440
Speaker 3: I said, I said, what ways that you could cut

495
00:22:36,520 --> 00:22:40,880
Speaker 3: back on expenses? Because as you're as you're cutting back

496
00:22:41,000 --> 00:22:44,240
Speaker 3: on expenses, you now make you know, make way for

497
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:46,840
Speaker 3: some income and then you use that income.

498
00:22:46,880 --> 00:22:48,800
Speaker 2: Because what happens is this, once.

499
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:50,920
Speaker 3: You cut back, and even if you're cutting back on expenses,

500
00:22:50,960 --> 00:22:53,680
Speaker 3: it doesn't have to be permanently. It could be temporarily.

501
00:22:53,760 --> 00:22:56,119
Speaker 3: So that way you can gain you know, some money

502
00:22:56,119 --> 00:22:59,080
Speaker 3: to invest. And while you're investing and making your money

503
00:22:59,119 --> 00:23:02,120
Speaker 3: work for you, and that money starts to grow. Now

504
00:23:02,200 --> 00:23:05,280
Speaker 3: you're building money that you have access to that you

505
00:23:05,320 --> 00:23:08,679
Speaker 3: could either put back into the investment and let it

506
00:23:08,760 --> 00:23:11,359
Speaker 3: keep growing. Or if you wanted to supplement that that

507
00:23:11,440 --> 00:23:13,920
Speaker 3: expense you can. But so so I would say start

508
00:23:13,960 --> 00:23:17,440
Speaker 3: with decreasing your expense. See what you know, what things

509
00:23:17,480 --> 00:23:21,239
Speaker 3: you're spending money on that could potentially be decreased, and

510
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:24,080
Speaker 3: then you know, start to look into investing money.

511
00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:25,399
Speaker 1: And I'm gonna add this to you, a lot of

512
00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:28,280
Speaker 1: people don't realize that sometimes you don't try to invest

513
00:23:28,280 --> 00:23:31,399
Speaker 1: by yourself. Get a group of people together and start

514
00:23:31,480 --> 00:23:32,119
Speaker 1: educating yourself.

515
00:23:32,160 --> 00:23:33,960
Speaker 2: Four or five people. If you got fifty dollars.

516
00:23:33,760 --> 00:23:35,320
Speaker 1: That means five of y'all have two hundred and fifty

517
00:23:35,320 --> 00:23:38,160
Speaker 1: dollars that can be invested as a group. Now you're

518
00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,119
Speaker 1: not you're investing two hundred fifty dollars, So you're not

519
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:42,400
Speaker 1: investing in your two hundred and fifty dollars.

520
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:43,400
Speaker 2: Plus you have.

521
00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:46,800
Speaker 1: Other people doing research for you also invest in their

522
00:23:46,800 --> 00:23:49,000
Speaker 1: time because they're fifty dollars means something to you. So

523
00:23:49,040 --> 00:23:51,159
Speaker 1: I would say take the advice and ask gave you.

524
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:54,560
Speaker 1: But also if you have some people start, don't get

525
00:23:54,600 --> 00:23:57,320
Speaker 1: in the game quick. There's no rush. What bothers me

526
00:23:57,359 --> 00:23:59,280
Speaker 1: about people that get a certain age, they feel like

527
00:24:00,000 --> 00:24:01,960
Speaker 1: I gotta hurry up and get there. No I don't

528
00:24:02,000 --> 00:24:05,520
Speaker 1: care if you sixty seventy eighty, take your time. If

529
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:08,040
Speaker 1: you rush life right, life will in for you because

530
00:24:08,040 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 1: you're in a hurry. I am not in a hurry

531
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:13,200
Speaker 1: to do nothing. I drive slow, I eat faster.

532
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:15,679
Speaker 2: You eat faster because I come from a big family,

533
00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:17,800
Speaker 2: six sisters, two brothers. You come from a big family.

534
00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:20,480
Speaker 2: You learn to eat fast. Brother. But I tell you this,

535
00:24:21,640 --> 00:24:25,200
Speaker 2: You're a blessing in this conversation because you're the typical

536
00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 2: person who comes in who says I don't have enough.

537
00:24:28,400 --> 00:24:30,119
Speaker 1: Will you do if you have friends, if you have

538
00:24:30,240 --> 00:24:33,720
Speaker 1: relatives who are willing to sign a contract, don't ever

539
00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:38,160
Speaker 1: just give somebody your money? Oh everybody. I find my brother, fied,

540
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:40,280
Speaker 1: my sister. I find a lot of relatives because I

541
00:24:40,320 --> 00:24:42,080
Speaker 1: went down that route, thought they loved me, and then

542
00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:43,800
Speaker 1: they didn't want to show up for work. So I

543
00:24:43,880 --> 00:24:46,040
Speaker 1: know what you have to do to get people committed.

544
00:24:46,160 --> 00:24:47,399
