WEBVTT - Impressing People

0:00:00.160 --> 0:00:04.600
<v Speaker 1>I See's Daily Game. It's a production of iHeartRadio. What's Up,

0:00:04.720 --> 0:00:08.840
<v Speaker 1>Size Tea? You're listening to The Daily Game, the compilation

0:00:08.960 --> 0:00:12.440
<v Speaker 1>of motivational quotes I've collected over the years that I

0:00:12.600 --> 0:00:16.640
<v Speaker 1>found inspiring and helped me through the game of life.

0:00:18.600 --> 0:00:22.840
<v Speaker 1>Today's quote is from Will Rogers, a performer and writer

0:00:23.360 --> 0:00:27.200
<v Speaker 1>known for his political wit. When he died, he was

0:00:27.240 --> 0:00:31.080
<v Speaker 1>one of the highest paid stars in Hollywood. This sounds

0:00:31.120 --> 0:00:34.840
<v Speaker 1>like something I said Will Rogers from back in the day.

0:00:35.360 --> 0:00:38.199
<v Speaker 1>Will said, too many people spend money they earn to

0:00:38.280 --> 0:00:42.720
<v Speaker 1>buy things they don't want to impress people they don't like.

0:00:44.440 --> 0:00:47.440
<v Speaker 1>I one time was working at an art gallery. Well

0:00:47.440 --> 0:00:50.559
<v Speaker 1>actually my girlfriend was working at an art gallery and

0:00:50.920 --> 0:00:54.440
<v Speaker 1>I was doing shows for them, and the guy said,

0:00:54.600 --> 0:00:58.200
<v Speaker 1>art is something that rich people buy to prove to

0:00:58.400 --> 0:01:01.560
<v Speaker 1>other people that they know something that they don't know.

0:01:02.760 --> 0:01:05.920
<v Speaker 1>So you know, you got this Rembrandt on the wall,

0:01:06.240 --> 0:01:09.319
<v Speaker 1>and somebody walks in and you explain it to them

0:01:09.959 --> 0:01:13.399
<v Speaker 1>and they go, Wow, you knew something I didn't know,

0:01:13.959 --> 0:01:17.640
<v Speaker 1>and it's so valuable. He said. It's also some way

0:01:17.640 --> 0:01:21.200
<v Speaker 1>of hanging your money on the wall to prove you

0:01:21.240 --> 0:01:24.559
<v Speaker 1>don't need it. So you know, if I walk into

0:01:24.640 --> 0:01:29.400
<v Speaker 1>your house and you have a million dollar painting hanging

0:01:29.480 --> 0:01:32.120
<v Speaker 1>on the wall. What you're saying is, that's a million

0:01:32.240 --> 0:01:39.280
<v Speaker 1>dollars I don't need. It's a flex Okay. Now, people

0:01:39.720 --> 0:01:42.319
<v Speaker 1>take the money they earn and buy things they don't want.

0:01:42.360 --> 0:01:44.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't know about that. Well, they maybe they think

0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:48.080
<v Speaker 1>they want it, but they're buying it to impress people

0:01:48.320 --> 0:01:51.720
<v Speaker 1>that they don't know. That's deep. I think the reason

0:01:51.760 --> 0:01:54.680
<v Speaker 1>they want it is to impress people they don't know.

0:01:55.160 --> 0:01:58.720
<v Speaker 1>So it's things they're buying, things they don't really want,

0:01:58.920 --> 0:02:01.320
<v Speaker 1>and the reason they're buying buying it is to impress

0:02:01.440 --> 0:02:05.640
<v Speaker 1>people that they don't know or even like deep shit

0:02:05.760 --> 0:02:09.520
<v Speaker 1>Will Rogers, deep deep deep stuff. But I guess that

0:02:09.600 --> 0:02:12.320
<v Speaker 1>goes for designer clothes and things like that. You know,

0:02:12.400 --> 0:02:15.680
<v Speaker 1>people that are buying name brand bags and stuff, they're

0:02:15.760 --> 0:02:21.920
<v Speaker 1>buying it because they are using it to impress other people,

0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:25.520
<v Speaker 1>but it may not actually be something they really desire

0:02:25.840 --> 0:02:29.920
<v Speaker 1>or they like. Yeah, that's a fucked up life. I know,

0:02:30.000 --> 0:02:32.520
<v Speaker 1>the money I earn, I buy things I want. Now

0:02:32.520 --> 0:02:35.320
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to ask myself why do I want them? Yeah,

0:02:35.320 --> 0:02:37.080
<v Speaker 1>he got me in my own head with that one.

0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:40.080
<v Speaker 1>That was a good one. But I think the key

0:02:40.200 --> 0:02:43.760
<v Speaker 1>is money you earn should be spent on things that

0:02:43.800 --> 0:02:47.120
<v Speaker 1>you truly want and desire. And hey, maybe you do

0:02:47.280 --> 0:02:49.760
<v Speaker 1>like Gucci bags, maybe you like that kind of stuff.

0:02:50.000 --> 0:02:52.920
<v Speaker 1>I know I like fly shit, But why am I

0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:56.960
<v Speaker 1>doing it? Who am I trying to impress? Or am

0:02:57.040 --> 0:03:01.000
<v Speaker 1>I trying to impress anybody? I think I'm past that stage.

0:03:01.080 --> 0:03:04.200
<v Speaker 1>I think right now everything I buy is shit. I

0:03:04.360 --> 0:03:07.040
<v Speaker 1>like Bill got me and my own motherfucking head on

0:03:07.080 --> 0:03:10.679
<v Speaker 1>that one. But listen, whatever lifestyle you can afford, make

0:03:10.720 --> 0:03:13.400
<v Speaker 1>sure you're doing it for you and not just to

0:03:13.440 --> 0:03:17.000
<v Speaker 1>impress other people. I think that's the key. I think

0:03:17.120 --> 0:03:19.720
<v Speaker 1>that's what he's really saying, and that's the way I'm

0:03:19.760 --> 0:03:22.440
<v Speaker 1>a rock out with. This makes you. You're taking your

0:03:22.560 --> 0:03:26.760
<v Speaker 1>hard earned money and doing it for you, not for

0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:30.200
<v Speaker 1>anybody else's, you know, not trying to make anybody else

0:03:30.280 --> 0:03:32.799
<v Speaker 1>feel any kind of way. Do it because you want

0:03:32.840 --> 0:03:39.680
<v Speaker 1>to do it. This has been another ice cold fact

0:03:39.720 --> 0:03:43.360
<v Speaker 1>from me iced tea. Listening again tomorrow when I drop

0:03:43.440 --> 0:03:47.160
<v Speaker 1>some wisdom on your ass till then, stay safe, stay smart,

0:03:47.440 --> 0:03:50.200
<v Speaker 1>and stay knowing that spending money on things that don't

0:03:50.240 --> 0:03:55.560
