His name 0:01:07.600 --> 0:01:09.639 was Andrew Bogut, and he and I have gotten really close. 0:01:10.920 --> 0:01:13.399 And I learned this from my mother. You know I 0:01:13.400 --> 0:01:13.600 did it. 0:01:13.640 --> 0:01:16.120 I wrote a book, The Six Man and go by 0:01:16.200 --> 0:01:16.800 that if you haven't. 0:01:16.640 --> 0:01:19.080 Read it on Amazon right now. 0:01:19.920 --> 0:01:20.319 I wasn't. 0:01:20.480 --> 0:01:22.120 I never planned on saying that, to be honest, but 0:01:23.000 --> 0:01:24.720 my mother taught me at a young age. I had 0:01:24.720 --> 0:01:27.760 a story in there where my mother had two voices 0:01:27.760 --> 0:01:28.840 and I said this to it one time. 0:01:28.840 --> 0:01:30.240 She looked at me crazy. I was like, Mom, when 0:01:30.240 --> 0:01:31.240 you have on makeup, you're. 0:01:31.160 --> 0:01:35.080 Nice, and when you don't have your makeup, I think 0:01:35.080 --> 0:01:37.760 I'm gonna get a whooping at any given moment. My 0:01:37.760 --> 0:01:39.560 mom is six foot tall, so I was scared of 0:01:39.560 --> 0:01:43.720 her until I was like fifteen, like frightened. And she 0:01:43.800 --> 0:01:46.679 had two voices though, you know, she had the voice 0:01:46.680 --> 0:01:48.200 at home, and then we went out to work, she 0:01:48.200 --> 0:01:51.160 had the other voice. And I think as African Americans, 0:01:51.160 --> 0:01:54.360 we all have that. You got to switch it up 0:01:55.280 --> 0:01:57.440 and the cold switch and thank you. And so Andrew 0:01:57.440 --> 0:01:59.400 Boget was he said to me, He's like, Hundre, why 0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:02.240 do you talk to like your black teammates and then 0:02:02.280 --> 0:02:05.000 you talk different when you're talking to like, you know, 0:02:05.040 --> 0:02:05.600 white people. 0:02:05.680 --> 0:02:06.440 And I couldn't. 0:02:07.480 --> 0:02:11.400 I couldn't quite explain it to him, but I was 0:02:11.400 --> 0:02:13.480 trying to explain to him, like my mother when we 0:02:13.520 --> 0:02:14.680 went to go she. 0:02:14.800 --> 0:02:15.400 Was on the phone. 0:02:15.639 --> 0:02:17.840 I remember the phone conversation talking to this guy about 0:02:17.840 --> 0:02:18.519 a house rental. 0:02:18.680 --> 0:02:20.880 We used to rent the small two bedroom apartment. 0:02:20.960 --> 0:02:23.440 Like I went in there like maybe ten years ago, 0:02:24.080 --> 0:02:26.680 and like I'm like in there like this and I'm 0:02:26.680 --> 0:02:28.359 looking at I'm like, how did my brother and I 0:02:28.800 --> 0:02:30.560 how do we live in this space together? 0:02:30.919 --> 0:02:32.160 You know, he's the same height as me. 0:02:32.840 --> 0:02:36.919 And the guys approved the rental, like, yes, it's available 0:02:36.960 --> 0:02:40.160 to you. She took my brother and myself with her 0:02:40.280 --> 0:02:42.480 to see this, to get the house, and so we 0:02:42.480 --> 0:02:44.000 pulled up knocking on the door. He answered the door. 0:02:44.040 --> 0:02:46.240 It's like, canna help you. She was like, yes, I'm 0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:48.160 the lady you spoke to on the phone, but her 0:02:48.240 --> 0:02:51.040 voice he couldn't he couldn't tell. 0:02:50.919 --> 0:02:51.400 What it was. 0:02:52.919 --> 0:02:56.760 The house is not available. So from that moment, like 0:02:56.840 --> 0:03:00.440 I understood, like how the world works, Like whoa And 0:03:00.520 --> 0:03:03.960 I'm like nine, nine years old? Like who understands that 0:03:04.000 --> 0:03:05.440 at nine years old? And like it's just like what 0:03:05.480 --> 0:03:07.720 you're saying is like how low can you go? When 0:03:07.760 --> 0:03:09.160 you I mean, what can you lose when you don't 0:03:09.160 --> 0:03:12.480 have anything to lose? And so that leads me to 0:03:12.560 --> 0:03:15.360 now I still have to maneuver how I speak. I 0:03:15.400 --> 0:03:18.519 have to be PC more PC in some places. You know, 0:03:18.560 --> 0:03:20.359 I can turn it down to other places. Even when 0:03:20.400 --> 0:03:22.679 we speak, you know, he's always saying, I want to 0:03:22.680 --> 0:03:25.480 see that springfielder in you. But for three of you, 0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:27.320 you know, this is my question. You know, the higher 0:03:27.320 --> 0:03:30.560 you keep moving up, you're going to open doors that 0:03:30.840 --> 0:03:33.560 you know you've never been in before, or doors we've 0:03:33.560 --> 0:03:35.760 never been in before. Like I'm thinking, you know, we're 0:03:35.760 --> 0:03:39.400 seeing entertainers into these billionaire realms and they have to 0:03:39.400 --> 0:03:40.160 maneuver different. 0:03:40.240 --> 0:03:41.400 You know, we're in this room. 0:03:41.840 --> 0:03:44.320 We don't have a the black Elon Musk whatever you 0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:46.160 want to call it, or the Zuckerberg Like when are 0:03:46.160 --> 0:03:48.600 we going to have our own tech companies that are 0:03:48.640 --> 0:03:50.680 you know, trillion dollar market caps? 0:03:51.200 --> 0:03:52.280 But we're inching closer. 0:03:52.600 --> 0:03:55.680 And so as you move up, you say you want 0:03:55.680 --> 0:03:58.080 to stay yourself, like we always want to stay ourselves. 0:03:58.480 --> 0:04:02.440 But are you thinking about how you plan on maneuvering 0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:05.560 once you get into certain places, and like, what's your 0:04:05.560 --> 0:04:06.000 thoughts on it? 0:04:06.680 --> 0:04:08.040 I think the only thing I can change. 0:04:08.120 --> 0:04:12.080 Is like I probably curse less in certain places, but 0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:14.960 that's just the truth. But like anything else, because you know, 0:04:15.080 --> 0:04:17.039 sometimes you might walk in the rooms and you might 0:04:17.080 --> 0:04:18.920 be like, man, am I am I sure I'm supposed 0:04:18.960 --> 0:04:21.560 to be here? And one thing always says, like I've 0:04:21.600 --> 0:04:23.480 been told, it's look for the signs. And when you 0:04:23.520 --> 0:04:27.119 talk to other people, shout out to everybody. You guys 0:04:27.120 --> 0:04:30.320 are very talented, accomplished people, and so am I. And 0:04:30.360 --> 0:04:32.520 like when you talk to other people, you see the 0:04:32.600 --> 0:04:35.760 confidence the individuals have and sit in front of you 0:04:35.880 --> 0:04:38.520 have and all the things they can do, and it's like, okay, 0:04:38.520 --> 0:04:40.120 you guys are able to do that. You're able to 0:04:40.160 --> 0:04:42.599 do Like you said, what I was able to do 0:04:42.680 --> 0:04:44.480 is one in a million, and you know, you can 0:04:44.520 --> 0:04:45.960 be a teacher and be a lot of different things. 0:04:46.000 --> 0:04:48.520 And it's like I try to find, you know, the 0:04:48.560 --> 0:04:51.479 one little you know, spec that I can take to 0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:53.720 really build from. So when I sit there and I see, 0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:55.880 you know, great people speak with confidence, I'm like, well, 0:04:56.640 --> 0:04:59.480 I came from a situation of you know, poverty where 0:05:00.120 --> 0:05:02.840 you know, single parent, wasn't supposed to make it out, 0:05:02.960 --> 0:05:05.039 wasn't supposed to be in this situation, I was able 0:05:05.080 --> 0:05:07.039 to do it with you know, a tenth of a chance. 0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:09.400 So every time I look there, I'm like, all right, 0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:10.960 if these people can do it, I can leave here 0:05:10.960 --> 0:05:13.120 and do it. Because I've done some amazing stuff. Then 0:05:13.200 --> 0:05:17.560 most people can't even fathom. We talked about a lot 0:05:17.560 --> 0:05:20.200 of situations, even just for career or like mistakes. It's like, 0:05:21.080 --> 0:05:22.880 you're worry about how people judge you. But a lot 0:05:22.920 --> 0:05:25.280 of people stopped their mission a long long time ago 0:05:25.360 --> 0:05:27.600 and just went to the sideline and started pointing like, yo, 0:05:27.680 --> 0:05:29.960 that ain't him. And it's like, no, I'm your superior, 0:05:30.200 --> 0:05:33.080 I'm him. Worry about yourself, you know what I mean. 0:05:33.800 --> 0:05:36.000 And then from there I move on and just keep going. 0:05:36.200 --> 0:05:37.560 But you know, I. 0:05:37.480 --> 0:05:40.440 Gotta keep it. Dre does a great job of smoothing 0:05:40.440 --> 0:05:42.719 it and out, but my mission, my delivery, can be 0:05:42.720 --> 0:05:45.960 a little bit more aggressive. But I definitely earn earn 0:05:46.000 --> 0:05:47.560 the right to know I'm in that room and gain 0:05:47.640 --> 0:05:50.479 confidence from comprehending that if you can do great things, 0:05:50.480 --> 0:05:52.520 I can do great things. And I take it from there. 0:05:53.040 --> 0:05:55.320 Yeah, I think you spot on with the confidence and 0:05:55.400 --> 0:05:58.680 Drake that story you told about your mother, it hit 0:05:58.760 --> 0:06:03.200 me dead in the heart because I remember calling my dad. 0:06:03.200 --> 0:06:05.520 I work. My parents are from Jamaica straw. 0:06:05.680 --> 0:06:15.280 Yeah, okay, now then we said that, now that's not 0:06:15.360 --> 0:06:17.800 the way. So I would call him, and you know 0:06:17.880 --> 0:06:21.120 that he has a he has a heavy patois at dialect. 0:06:21.640 --> 0:06:22.600 But that's changed over the years. 0:06:22.640 --> 0:06:24.760 When I would call him, he worked in Manhattan at corporate, 0:06:24.960 --> 0:06:26.279 and I told the story. I really never know what 0:06:26.320 --> 0:06:28.279 he did, but I would call him and he would 0:06:28.320 --> 0:06:30.040 answer it, and my brothers used to laugh, I'll do 0:06:30.080 --> 0:06:31.760 it for y'all. He'd be like hello. 0:06:35.080 --> 0:06:37.120 I'd be like that, it's me. 0:06:38.760 --> 0:06:40.039 And then you know, he would talk to me in 0:06:40.040 --> 0:06:42.240 his regular voice. And when I'll call my mom, she couldn't. 0:06:42.279 --> 0:06:45.000 She never did it. But it used to irk me then, 0:06:45.200 --> 0:06:47.320 but it irks me even more so now. It's like 0:06:47.360 --> 0:06:50.160 somebody calls the house. He'll do that, And it's because 0:06:50.360 --> 0:06:52.560 I'm fighting for him to never have. 0:06:52.520 --> 0:06:54.320 To do it right. 0:06:54.400 --> 0:06:56.919 And so when we show up in these rooms, I 0:06:56.960 --> 0:06:59.600 show up exactly who I am right now, right that 0:07:00.160 --> 0:07:02.800 guy used to stand in front of the classroom who 0:07:02.800 --> 0:07:06.919 couldn't curse.

I think a lot of times 0:10:20.200 --> 0:10:25.320 people feel intimidated because they don't know what they're talking about, right, 0:10:25.400 --> 0:10:27.520 And so that's our thing, is like I'm a constant learner. 0:10:27.559 --> 0:10:29.439 So every day, like I told you, I just read 0:10:29.480 --> 0:10:31.800 the Wall Street Journal before I got here. Let's have 0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:35.720 a conversation, right, I'm gonna be part of the conversation 0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:37.440 because it's my point. I make it my point to 0:10:37.800 --> 0:10:39.679 I don't ever want to walk into a room where 0:10:39.960 --> 0:10:40.959 I'm gonna feel like. 0:10:40.960 --> 0:10:44.000 I don't feel confident. Right, We sat down. 0:10:43.760 --> 0:10:46.319 In some procedures rooms over the past month and it 0:10:46.440 --> 0:10:48.920 was like, I feel like, yeah, we supposed to. We've 0:10:49.000 --> 0:10:54.679 earned every aspect of respect and determination and dedication to 0:10:54.840 --> 0:10:57.240 be in these rooms. So it starts with the confidence, 0:10:57.280 --> 0:10:59.920 but it also goes into that part of having an education, 0:11:00.080 --> 0:11:02.080 the feeling like you know what I belong. 0:11:02.559 --> 0:11:04.600 I want to answer this. I'll try to speed it up. 0:11:04.600 --> 0:11:06.319 But two parts. 0:11:06.960 --> 0:11:09.360 So I never really had to worry about coast. I 0:11:09.360 --> 0:11:12.120 grew up radical so and I never had a job, 0:11:12.559 --> 0:11:18.280 so I never really had to worry about code switching 0:11:18.400 --> 0:11:20.559 because you only cod switch when you're not in a 0:11:20.600 --> 0:11:24.960 position of power. Elon Muskin curse on TV and it's okay, 0:11:25.880 --> 0:11:26.480 that's a fact. 0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:29.320 So, but that they got fingersnaps on that joint, that 0:11:29.400 --> 0:11:32.880 was crazyssance. 0:11:33.040 --> 0:11:36.840 But what I did realize when so when I was 0:11:36.880 --> 0:11:40.400 working as a financial advisor in my office, you know, 0:11:40.559 --> 0:11:43.000 everybody in my office was pretty much older white man. 0:11:43.360 --> 0:11:46.280 And in the beginning part of like the training, they 0:11:46.320 --> 0:11:48.840 will make you watch videos of yourself like we have 0:11:48.960 --> 0:11:53.720 like a practice sale, and and I never really realized 0:11:53.800 --> 0:11:56.400 that I actually had a New York accent until I 0:11:56.400 --> 0:12:00.760 actually watched myself speak, and then then I started to 0:12:00.800 --> 0:12:04.400 realize it. And I kind of became a little self 0:12:04.559 --> 0:12:07.040 conscious of how I spoke because I know that I 0:12:07.040 --> 0:12:10.240 didn't have the best the best diction. I know that 0:12:10.440 --> 0:12:13.040 you know, I had an accent, and I didn't sound 0:12:13.080 --> 0:12:17.120 like anybody else in the office. But I realized that 0:12:17.800 --> 0:12:21.079 what I thought might have been a disadvantage was actually 0:12:21.080 --> 0:12:24.680 a superpower. And that's actually helped us is that there's 0:12:24.720 --> 0:12:27.360 millions of people that actually talk like I talk and 0:12:27.600 --> 0:12:30.400 relate to how I like communicate as opposed to how 0:12:30.400 --> 0:12:32.800 somebody else communicates. Those people were left out of the 0:12:32.840 --> 0:12:36.280 conversation for a long period of time. So never run 0:12:36.320 --> 0:12:38.760 away from who you are. Embrace who you are, because 0:12:38.800 --> 0:12:43.040 that's actually a superpower. Now, you do have to be intelligent, 0:12:43.760 --> 0:12:47.680 and it is important to have a strong mastery of 0:12:47.720 --> 0:12:51.960 the language that you speak. So you know, it's like 0:12:52.080 --> 0:12:54.800 you don't wear a jumpsuit to a wedding. It's just 0:12:54.840 --> 0:12:58.560 common sense. So how you communicate in a barbershop might 0:12:58.600 --> 0:13:00.840 not be how you community said. 0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:01.319 I don't know. 0:13:03.320 --> 0:13:05.400 You're talking about the Batman too, that Jaden. 0:13:05.120 --> 0:13:08.960 Will you know it's I think it's just a matter 0:13:09.040 --> 0:13:12.200 of just knowing how to communicate properly, not necessarily cold switching. 0:13:12.240 --> 0:13:14.559 I don't like cold switching. I'm not I'll never cod switch. 0:13:15.480 --> 0:13:18.120 But Steve Stouts told us something that was extremely important. 0:13:18.160 --> 0:13:20.559 I think that this has been the key to earn 0:13:20.600 --> 0:13:25.200 your Leasha's success. It's the thinnest slice strategy. When you're black, 0:13:25.240 --> 0:13:26.840 you have to deal with a variety of different things 0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:28.320 that other people don't have to deal with it don't 0:13:28.320 --> 0:13:32.360 worry about. So for us, we walk a very thin 0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:36.000 line because most people that are on TV that are 0:13:36.040 --> 0:13:39.880 communicating finances that are black are They're not relatable to 0:13:40.400 --> 0:13:43.080 the majority of black people right, how they talk, how 0:13:43.080 --> 0:13:46.920 they look, whatever. And then there's a variety of different 0:13:46.920 --> 0:13:50.280 people in our culture of hip hop that aren't taken 0:13:50.400 --> 0:13:56.400 serious in the business world. Right. So we have to 0:13:56.440 --> 0:13:59.560 be articulate enough to be respected at the highest levels 0:13:59.559 --> 0:14:03.120 of finance to be here, right, but we also have 0:14:03.200 --> 0:14:07.320 to be edgy enough to still be likable, appealable and 0:14:07.400 --> 0:14:10.920 relatable to the masses. That's extremely difficult. Very few people 0:14:10.960 --> 0:14:13.800 have been able to pull that one off, and that's 0:14:13.800 --> 0:14:17.040 something that we do. This is just a blessing that 0:14:17.040 --> 0:14:20.520 we've been blessed with. But this is something that when 0:14:21.120 --> 0:14:25.520 you're thinking about you know your pathway forward. It's important 0:14:25.760 --> 0:14:28.240 because a lot of times when we get isolated in 0:14:28.440 --> 0:14:32.560 circles that we're in, but we can never forget about 0:14:32.640 --> 0:14:37.480 the overarching theme of black people. And no matter how 0:14:37.520 --> 0:14:41.800 good we're doing individually, nobody is successful if the vast 0:14:41.840 --> 0:14:46.160 majority people are unsuccessful and the vast majority of people 0:14:47.000 --> 0:14:52.320 are struggling. So it's important to keep relatability. It's important 0:14:52.520 --> 0:14:57.240 to be able to communicate to the masses while still 0:14:57.360 --> 0:15:00.880 having your integrity and being able to up the ladder. 0:15:01.120 --> 0:15:03.840 Like I said, Elon Muster doesn't have to worry about that. 0:15:04.560 --> 0:15:06.640 Mark Zuckerberg doesn't have to worry about that. They can 0:15:06.720 --> 0:15:09.080 just communicate and they just live freely. They don't have 0:15:09.120 --> 0:15:12.040 to worry about street credibility. They don't have to. 0:15:12.600 --> 0:15:13.400 But we do. 0:15:13.840 --> 0:15:14.000 Right. 0:15:14.200 --> 0:15:17.960 So this is a very interesting conversation that you just 0:15:17.960 --> 0:15:19.680 brought up. But I just feel like, you know, in 0:15:20.520 --> 0:15:24.000 the world of media and communications and just everything, it's 0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:27.040 important that people have other people to look up to. 0:15:27.280 --> 0:15:29.360 That's why every kid wants to be a rapper and entertainer, 0:15:29.560 --> 0:15:33.600 because those are jobs that they see as attainable. Because 0:15:34.080 --> 0:15:38.360 the architect, the doctor, they're not visible. They haven't made 0:15:38.360 --> 0:15:41.080 themselves visible in a lot of times, and they're so 0:15:41.400 --> 0:15:45.800 far unrelatable that nobody's even gonna try to be that, right. 0:15:45.880 --> 0:15:48.760 So if we have to a make ourselves more visible, 0:15:49.040 --> 0:15:52.240 and we have to make ourselves more relatable as well, 0:15:52.640 --> 0:15:56.520 that way we can inspire more people, more kids to 0:15:56.600 --> 0:15:59.360 want to be more than just what they see on television. 0:16:00.200 --> 0:16:04.200 Alien from Guatemala charged with raping a child in Massachusetts. 0:16:04.560 --> 0:16:07.960 An MS thirteen gang member from Al Salvador accused of 0:16:08.080 --> 0:16:12.080 murdering a Texas. Man of Venezuelan charged with filming and 0:16:12.160 --> 0:16:16.000 selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just some of 0:16:16.040 --> 0:16:19.760 the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President Donald J. 0:16:19.840 --> 0:16:23.600 Trump's leadership. I'm Christy nom the United States Secretary of 0:16:23.640 --> 0:16:28.440 Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border crossings are 0:16:28.480 --> 0:16:31.840 at the lowest levels ever recorded, and over one hundred 0:16:31.880 --> 0:16:35.800 thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If you are here illegally, 0:16:36.280 --> 0:16:39.600 your next you will be fined. Nearly one thousand dollars 0:16:39.640 --> 0:16:43.760 a day. Imprisoned and deported, you will never return. But 0:16:43.840 --> 0:16:47.360 if you register using our CBP home app and leave now, 0:16:47.760 --> 0:16:50.880 you could be allowed to return legally. Do what's right. 0:16:51.440 --> 0:16:56.960 Leave now. Under President Trump America's laws, border and families. 0:16:56.600 --> 0:16:57.400 Will be protected. 0:16:57.520 --> 0:16:59.600 Sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security,
