Speaker 2: it's never gonna happen. You guys know about me, I'm
Speaker 2: not cocky. I'm not. I'm not I'm not conceited. I'm
Speaker 2: actually a little bit unsure of myself. I'm always nervous
Speaker 2: when I speak. But that's okay because that's the credit dude,
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. Like, I'm not going to
Speaker 2: go up there and start flashing and black. That's not me.
Speaker 2: But I'm telling you guys right now, whatever industry you're
Speaker 2: trying to do, right, if your credit is messed up,
Speaker 2: don't let your credit being messed up to tear you
Speaker 2: from starting that business. Because I started the business with
Speaker 2: a little bit of credit. And if I'll bankruptcy a year,
Speaker 2: like a year after I quit my job, and for
Speaker 2: five years I had bankrupcy in my credit report, you
Speaker 2: know what I mean. So don't look at things like
Speaker 2: you might have to leave this behind and get back
Speaker 2: to it later, you know what I mean. You know what, guys,
Speaker 2: I would have to leave my family in the back
Speaker 2: burner for a little bit. Not immediate family, but like
Speaker 2: my friends and everybody everybody at the club, pop and
Speaker 2: bottle like guys, truth be told, swear to God all
Speaker 2: my life. My first pair of Jordans that I bought
Speaker 2: was for the Jacob Javic Center seminar. I think that
Speaker 2: was December of twenty nineteen. That was my first pair
Speaker 2: of Jordan's, first pair of air Jordans. And I didn't
Speaker 2: even buy my wife did. I said, what are you doing?
Speaker 2: You crazy? Are you crazy? But yet everybody that I see,
Speaker 2: oh they got Jordans, but they got a five sixty
Speaker 2: credit score. Like I literally was that person that was like,
Speaker 2: I'm not buying any pair of Jordans because I don't
Speaker 2: deserve it. You know what I mean. You're going into
Speaker 2: a relationship, You're going into a marriage, You're going into
Speaker 2: something like it was in the Breakfast Covey to day.
Speaker 2: It was crazy. It was like, if you don't have
Speaker 2: at least twenty five thousand dollars in the bank, you
Speaker 2: shouldn't be with them. You shouldn't. What can you offer?
Speaker 2: It makes sense to a certain extent, you know what
