1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:04,600
Speaker 1: I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's Up,

2
00:00:04,720 --> 00:00:08,840
Speaker 1: Size Tea? You're listening to The Daily Game, the compilation

3
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:12,440
Speaker 1: of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that I

4
00:00:12,600 --> 00:00:16,640
Speaker 1: found inspiring and helped me through the game of life.

5
00:00:18,600 --> 00:00:22,840
Speaker 1: Today's quote is from Will Rogers, a performer and writer

6
00:00:23,360 --> 00:00:27,200
Speaker 1: known for his political wit. When he died, he was

7
00:00:27,240 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 1: one of the highest paid stars in Hollywood. This sounds

8
00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,840
Speaker 1: like something I said Will Rogers from back in the day.

9
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,199
Speaker 1: Will said, too many people spend money they earn to

10
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:42,720
Speaker 1: buy things they don't want to impress people they don't like.

11
00:00:44,440 --> 00:00:47,440
Speaker 1: I one time was working at an art gallery. Well

12
00:00:47,440 --> 00:00:50,559
Speaker 1: actually my girlfriend was working at an art gallery and

13
00:00:50,920 --> 00:00:54,440
Speaker 1: I was doing shows for them, and the guy said,

14
00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:58,200
Speaker 1: art is something that rich people buy to prove to

15
00:00:58,400 --> 00:01:01,560
Speaker 1: other people that they know something that they don't know.

16
00:01:02,760 --> 00:01:05,920
Speaker 1: So you know, you got this Rembrandt on the wall,

17
00:01:06,240 --> 00:01:09,319
Speaker 1: and somebody walks in and you explain it to them

18
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,399
Speaker 1: and they go, Wow, you knew something I didn't know,

19
00:01:13,959 --> 00:01:17,640
Speaker 1: and it's so valuable. He said. It's also some way

20
00:01:17,640 --> 00:01:21,200
Speaker 1: of hanging your money on the wall to prove you

21
00:01:21,240 --> 00:01:24,559
Speaker 1: don't need it. So you know, if I walk into

22
00:01:24,640 --> 00:01:29,400
Speaker 1: your house and you have a million dollar painting hanging

23
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:32,120
Speaker 1: on the wall. What you're saying is, that's a million

24
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:39,280
Speaker 1: dollars I don't need. It's a flex Okay. Now, people

25
00:01:39,720 --> 00:01:42,319
Speaker 1: take the money they earn and buy things they don't want.

26
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,920
Speaker 1: I don't know about that. Well, they maybe they think

27
00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:48,080
Speaker 1: they want it, but they're buying it to impress people

28
00:01:48,320 --> 00:01:51,720
Speaker 1: that they don't know. That's deep. I think the reason

29
00:01:51,760 --> 00:01:54,680
Speaker 1: they want it is to impress people they don't know.

30
00:01:55,160 --> 00:01:58,720
Speaker 1: So it's things they're buying, things they don't really want,

31
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,320
Speaker 1: and the reason they're buying buying it is to impress

32
00:02:01,440 --> 00:02:05,640
Speaker 1: people that they don't know or even like deep shit

33
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:09,520
Speaker 1: Will Rogers, deep deep deep stuff. But I guess that

34
00:02:09,600 --> 00:02:12,320
Speaker 1: goes for designer clothes and things like that. You know,

35
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:15,680
Speaker 1: people that are buying name brand bags and stuff, they're

36
00:02:15,760 --> 00:02:21,920
Speaker 1: buying it because they are using it to impress other people,

37
00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,520
Speaker 1: but it may not actually be something they really desire

38
00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,920
Speaker 1: or they like. Yeah, that's a fucked up life. I know,

39
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:32,520
Speaker 1: the money I earn, I buy things I want. Now

40
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,320
Speaker 1: I'm trying to ask myself why do I want them? Yeah,

41
00:02:35,320 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 1: he got me in my own head with that one.

42
00:02:37,120 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 1: That was a good one. But I think the key

43
00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,760
Speaker 1: is money you earn should be spent on things that

44
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:47,120
Speaker 1: you truly want and desire. And hey, maybe you do

45
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:49,760
Speaker 1: like Gucci bags, maybe you like that kind of stuff.

46
00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,920
Speaker 1: I know I like fly shit, But why am I

47
00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:56,960
Speaker 1: doing it? Who am I trying to impress? Or am

48
00:02:57,040 --> 00:03:01,000
Speaker 1: I trying to impress anybody? I think I'm past that stage.

49
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:04,200
Speaker 1: I think right now everything I buy is shit. I

50
00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:07,040
Speaker 1: like Bill got me and my own motherfucking head on

51
00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:10,679
Speaker 1: that one. But listen, whatever lifestyle you can afford, make

52
00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:13,400
Speaker 1: sure you're doing it for you and not just to

53
00:03:13,440 --> 00:03:17,000
Speaker 1: impress other people. I think that's the key. I think

54
00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,720
Speaker 1: that's what he's really saying, and that's the way I'm

55
00:03:19,760 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 1: a rock out with. This makes you. You're taking your

56
00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:26,760
Speaker 1: hard earned money and doing it for you, not for

57
00:03:26,880 --> 00:03:30,200
Speaker 1: anybody else's, you know, not trying to make anybody else

58
00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,799
Speaker 1: feel any kind of way. Do it because you want

59
00:03:32,840 --> 00:03:39,680
Speaker 1: to do it. This has been another ice cold fact

60
00:03:39,720 --> 00:03:43,360
Speaker 1: from me iced tea. Listening again tomorrow when I drop

61

62
00:03:47,440 --> 00:03:50,200
Speaker 1: and stay knowing that spending money on things that don't

63
00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:55,560
