84
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:29,200
Speaker 6: First off, well, I'm originally born in Iran. Came here

85
00:03:29,200 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 6: when I was two. I grew up in Texas, came

86
00:03:31,320 --> 00:03:33,280
Speaker 6: out to Cali fifteen, lived out here in Orange County

87
00:03:33,280 --> 00:03:36,840
Speaker 6: ever since. Oh Orange County, boy, that's bronzo.

88
00:03:37,080 --> 00:03:42,200
Speaker 2: No talking to what you're doing. Starting a high school huntly,

89
00:03:42,520 --> 00:03:47,080
Speaker 2: you know. I went to Elorado for a little bit dude, Tony,

90
00:03:47,280 --> 00:03:50,280
Speaker 2: When and what did got you into the financial game?

91
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,480
Speaker 3: How did you become the financial advisor? What led you

92
00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:54,480
Speaker 3: to go down that path and start learning about it?

93
00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:56,160
Speaker 2: Well, I want to first find out if did he

94
00:03:56,200 --> 00:03:58,600
Speaker 2: have any sports in his life high school? Did he

95
00:03:58,640 --> 00:03:59,200
Speaker 2: play sports?

96
00:03:59,320 --> 00:03:59,360
Speaker 3: No?

97
00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,760
Speaker 4: Man, up, nothing happened. I was too short.

98
00:04:02,480 --> 00:04:09,880
Speaker 3: See that off my life, I believe you.

99
00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:12,400
Speaker 6: So you know why this is happening right because I

100
00:04:12,480 --> 00:04:14,800
Speaker 6: sent the engineer to go get the signs and I

101
00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:18,680
Speaker 6: was like, man, I start.

102
00:04:18,480 --> 00:04:20,360
Speaker 3: To show it now two hours ago, and he did

103
00:04:20,360 --> 00:04:21,960
Speaker 3: some stupid ship So now I'm.

104
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:25,720
Speaker 2: Firing on him a little bit. People waiting around, I mean.

105
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:28,119
Speaker 3: Yeah, everybody walked waiting for him, and I'm like, Tony,

106
00:04:28,160 --> 00:04:30,560
Speaker 3: why would you send the engineer. There's four other gentlemen

107
00:04:30,600 --> 00:04:33,159
Speaker 3: and two other ladies that can go, oh my bad,

108
00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,320
Speaker 3: Joe Uber and sent it straight from there.

109
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 2: I mean, there's all kinds of things.

110
00:04:36,520 --> 00:04:38,440
Speaker 3: But you know, other than that, I still make fun

111
00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:40,159
Speaker 3: of him because he's a buddy of ours. So therefore,

112
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:41,720
Speaker 3: you know you only rip the butet one you love

113
00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 3: that being said, Tony, you didn't play any sports, but

114
00:04:44,880 --> 00:04:46,240
Speaker 3: you did make a lot of money.

115
00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:47,880
Speaker 5: What led you into the financial game.

116
00:04:48,040 --> 00:04:49,440
Speaker 6: Well, you know, I wouldn't say I made a lot

117
00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:51,120
Speaker 6: of money, but I think just like all of us,

118
00:04:51,200 --> 00:04:52,720
Speaker 6: you know, I wasn't born with the silver spoon in

119
00:04:52,760 --> 00:04:54,920
Speaker 6: my mouth. You know, my parents were immigrants. They hustled

120
00:04:54,920 --> 00:04:57,440
Speaker 6: hard to make it out here, and they sacrificed a

121
00:04:57,440 --> 00:04:58,840
Speaker 6: lot for us to make it in this country. So

122
00:04:58,880 --> 00:05:01,440
Speaker 6: I was felt like I owed something or you know,

123
00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:02,880
Speaker 6: as we all did, right. I want to make your

124
00:05:02,920 --> 00:05:05,680
Speaker 6: parents happy. I want to make something in yourself. And uh,

125
00:05:05,760 --> 00:05:09,240
Speaker 6: if you've ever seen that movie Pursuit of Happiness with Yah, Yeah, yeah,

126
00:05:09,240 --> 00:05:11,280
Speaker 6: So that movie was dead on man. That's you know,

127
00:05:11,320 --> 00:05:13,640
Speaker 6: a lot of movies are made up or they're not

128
00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:17,159
Speaker 6: really accurate, but that movie was exact duplicate of my life.

129
00:05:17,200 --> 00:05:19,440
Speaker 6: In fact, Dean Witter was the firm that Will Smith

130
00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:22,040
Speaker 6: portrays in that show. And that's where I started Morgan

131
00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:24,440
Speaker 6: Stanley and I was actually in the World Trade Center

132
00:05:24,440 --> 00:05:26,719
Speaker 6: two weeks before it came down. I was supposed to go,

133
00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:29,920
Speaker 6: well it was. It was kind of mixed feelings because

134
00:05:29,920 --> 00:05:32,400
Speaker 6: Morgan Stanley had the largest number of tenants. So when

135
00:05:32,440 --> 00:05:35,080
Speaker 6: we saw the planes go in, I knew our CEO

136
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:37,400
Speaker 6: was in the building. There's people I've met two weeks before,

137
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 6: and coincidentally enough, a partner of mine that I became

138
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:42,960
Speaker 6: business partners with for the next ten fifteen years was

139
00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:44,599
Speaker 6: actually in the building when the plane came in.

140
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,640
Speaker 4: Wow, and he made it out. Yeah, he made it out?

141
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:48,880
Speaker 2: Is he Okay?

142
00:05:48,920 --> 00:05:51,240
Speaker 4: Now I helped put him in prison?

143
00:05:51,480 --> 00:05:51,640
Speaker 2: Oh?

144
00:05:51,760 --> 00:05:51,960
Speaker 4: Nice?

145
00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:54,360
Speaker 6: Yeah, has helped put him in prison. I helped put

146
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:56,919
Speaker 6: him in prison. That's part of the story.

147
00:05:57,320 --> 00:05:58,880
Speaker 2: Wow, dig into.

148
00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,520
Speaker 3: That first off. No, let's just start early stages. How

00:06:02,520 --> 00:06:03,479

Speaker 6: So I stumbled on an ad online that said learn

174
00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,040
Speaker 6: how to be a financial advisor, and I'd always seen

175
00:07:04,080 --> 00:07:06,240
Speaker 6: the movies Wall Street This then ilways thought it was cool,

176
00:07:06,240 --> 00:07:07,680
Speaker 6: but I thought you had to go to Harvard, your

177
00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,360
Speaker 6: parents had to be white, or you had to like

178
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:11,160
Speaker 6: have like some petitive that way too.

179
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:13,120
Speaker 5: It's so funny you say, I always felt, oh, you

180
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:13,920
Speaker 5: got to be white to do that.

181
00:07:14,320 --> 00:07:15,840
Speaker 6: I don't know why, but I thought it was some

182
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,160
Speaker 6: self perception that I had. It's limiting belief that I

183
00:07:18,200 --> 00:07:18,480
Speaker 6: put in.

184
00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:20,040
Speaker 2: That we've seen, and it's so true.

185
00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 3: I believe that everything we're taught right by what we see,

186
00:07:22,400 --> 00:07:25,240
Speaker 3: what we know and everybody that I ever, not that

187
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,160
Speaker 3: I knew anybody early on, but when I did, they're

188
00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:28,520
Speaker 3: all white folks. You know what I'm saying that that

189
00:07:28,560 --> 00:07:31,480
Speaker 3: did financial advising and in my neighborhood. Nobody was like,

190
00:07:31,600 --> 00:07:33,960
Speaker 3: hey have you thought about your four one K? Like

191
00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:35,200
Speaker 3: my dad, we didn't have that ship.

192
00:07:35,320 --> 00:07:37,760
Speaker 6: So yeah, but in hindsight, like shame on me, you know,

193
00:07:37,800 --> 00:07:39,480
Speaker 6: it became like a limiting belief, like why the shit

194
00:07:39,520 --> 00:07:41,960
Speaker 6: did we think that? Like I had every fucking opportunity

195
00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,520
Speaker 6: anybody else. It's it's something that's put in our head.

196
00:07:45,720 --> 00:07:47,800
Speaker 6: So but we trained ignorance, but it's our ignorance.

197
00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:50,920
Speaker 4: Yeah, we got to own up to it. Yeah, across

198
00:07:52,080 --> 00:07:56,240
Speaker 4: our society, our parents. So I could continue to continue, Yeah,

199
00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:56,680
Speaker 4: no I can't.

200
00:07:56,680 --> 00:07:58,400

Speaker 2: then I knew it was it was. It was game time.

237
00:09:25,720 --> 00:09:27,679

238
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:28,560
Speaker 2: your skills around.

239
00:09:28,679 --> 00:09:28,839
Speaker 4: Yeah.

240
00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:30,600
Speaker 6: No, once I got to him, he appreciated the hustle.

241
00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:32,439
Speaker 6: I said, listen, I just bullshitted you your secretary to

Speaker 6: he says, cool. Where a suit come in?

245
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:37,640
Speaker 4: Now?

246
00:09:37,679 --> 00:09:39,120
Speaker 6: At that time, I didn't know in a suit, couldn't

247
00:09:39,120 --> 00:09:40,280
Speaker 6: afford a suit, and I didn't want to go spend

248
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,320
Speaker 6: six hundred dollars in a suit. So I went to

249
00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:44,840
Speaker 6: where you can return to use condoms NORTMS. I got

250
00:09:44,840 --> 00:09:48,960
Speaker 6: a suit like anything you could literally return to use

251
00:09:49,000 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 6: condom back to North unty'll take it.

252
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:53,360
Speaker 5: I took some Calndar thirty years later that my uncle

253
00:09:53,400 --> 00:09:55,559
Speaker 5: gave me, and they gave me credit for full Pop.

254
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:56,080
Speaker 2: Now.

255
00:09:56,320 --> 00:09:58,800
Speaker 6: Now the thing with the suit, though, is me being

256
00:09:58,840 --> 00:10:02,840
Speaker 6: like vertically and you know, apparently not challenged like Joe.

257
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:06,080
Speaker 5: I'm challenging another week to worry about it.

258
00:10:06,840 --> 00:10:08,840
Speaker 6: You have to hem them, right, so, but once you

259
00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:11,240
Speaker 6: hem them, you really can't return it. So I'm yapling

260
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:13,880

283
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:09,200
Speaker 2: Since I was a.

284
00:11:09,240 --> 00:11:11,679
Speaker 3: Forty eight ways with my fans for so long, I

285
00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:13,120
Speaker 3: was like, okay, I got to do that too.

286
00:11:13,360 --> 00:11:14,240
Speaker 5: I've done that movie before.

287
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:16,560
Speaker 6: I get I give you that background, right because, like

288
00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 6: I said, when you're when you're grown up and you're hustling,

289
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:20,240
Speaker 6: and that's one of the passions I have about talking

290
00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:22,800
Speaker 6: to people now about making money is like everybody's got

291
00:11:22,800 --> 00:11:24,959
Speaker 6: a story and people want to hear that story. Yeah,

292
00:11:25,000 --> 00:11:28,520
Speaker 6: and uh, you know, getting that job was an amazing experience.

293
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,679
Speaker 6: I was so happy they did hire you have they

294
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:33,440
Speaker 6: hired me? I nailed the series seven. It's just like

295
00:11:33,440 --> 00:11:37,320
Speaker 6: in the movies. It's our test. It's the other advisors

296
00:11:37,360 --> 00:11:39,240
Speaker 6: are taking bets if you're gonnail or not, because you

297
00:11:39,280 --> 00:11:41,080
Speaker 6: pack up your cubicle and you go take the test.

298
00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:43,680
Speaker 6: If you fail, you're fired. So it's very cutthroat. You

299
00:11:43,720 --> 00:11:44,920
Speaker 6: study for six months, et cetera.

300
00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:45,439
Speaker 4: So I nailed that.

301
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:48,000
Speaker 6: Was in the top ten percent. I'm a closet genius. Yeah,

302
00:11:48,240 --> 00:11:50,160
Speaker 6: I don't. I don't like study. I don't buy bucks.

303
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:51,719
Speaker 6: I didn't go to classes, but I would always just

304
00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,160
Speaker 6: at least pass. So when I really apply myself, it

305
00:11:54,280 --> 00:11:56,040
Speaker 6: worked and I made it and I was in the

306
00:11:56,080 --> 00:11:58,560
Speaker 6: top ten. When we were in New York, they said

307
00:11:58,559 --> 00:12:00,920
Speaker 6: that ninety per cent of you will not be here

308
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:02,719
Speaker 6: in twelve months, but of the ten percent of making,

309
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:04,640
Speaker 6: ninety percent of you will make over six figures within

310
00:12:04,679 --> 00:12:05,040
Speaker 6: three years.

311
00:12:05,080 --> 00:12:07,439
Speaker 4: And I was like, boom, that's my path. I did it.

312
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:10,480
Speaker 6: Got recruited to other firms along with that partner that

313
00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:13,760
Speaker 6: was in the World Trade Center, and then, uh, y'all

314
00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:16,760
Speaker 6: ever been cheated on like relationship wise all the time?

315
00:12:16,880 --> 00:12:19,400
Speaker 4: I don't know. I can't say that, but maybe.

316
00:12:19,840 --> 00:12:23,680
Speaker 2: Sometimes it's like cheated on Mary Jane with snow white exactly.

317
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:25,319
Speaker 6: And it doesn't have to be a girl. It could

318
00:12:25,360 --> 00:12:27,480
Speaker 6: be like a business cheating or somebody hurts you or

319
00:12:27,480 --> 00:12:28,120
Speaker 6: stabs in the back.

320
00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:29,520
Speaker 2: Yeah, for sure, all the time.

321
00:12:29,559 --> 00:12:31,880
Speaker 6: And sometimes it's money. And I always asked this from

322
00:12:31,880 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 6: stage when I talk, and I say, you know, if

323
00:12:33,760 --> 00:12:36,400
Speaker 6: you've been cheated on financially been cheated on emotionally, which

324
00:12:36,440 --> 00:12:36,960
Speaker 6: one hurts me?

325
00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:38,760
Speaker 4: And it's almost divided.

326
00:12:38,440 --> 00:12:40,160
Speaker 2: To you, And I'd say it's good my question.

327
00:12:40,679 --> 00:12:42,480
Speaker 6: Yeah, But if you really think about it, it's almost

328
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,160
Speaker 6: the same thing, really is when somebody violates your trust,

329
00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:48,160
Speaker 6: it takes money away from you, it scars you, and

330
00:12:48,240 --> 00:12:51,000
Speaker 6: not to diminish like a sexual assault or whatever. But

331
00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,360
Speaker 6: if that same the reactions that you'll have all of

332
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:53,959
Speaker 6: a sudden.

333
00:12:53,679 --> 00:12:54,840
Speaker 4: You don't trust people anymore.

334
00:12:55,160 --> 00:12:57,760
Speaker 3: You're kind of you know, in the bottle steps to

335
00:12:57,760 --> 00:12:59,120
Speaker 3: get out of it, because you got to think the

336
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:01,120
Speaker 3: same steps to do this again with somebody. Am I

337
00:13:01,120 --> 00:13:03,319
Speaker 3: gonna trust that person again? Am I gonna trust this

338
00:13:03,440 --> 00:13:06,240
Speaker 3: woman again? And that the money could be with a

339
00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:08,600
Speaker 3: man or a woman business, So it doesn't matter right

340
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:10,640
Speaker 3: or obvious saying for me if it would be for

341
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:13,160
Speaker 3: a woman again, if I'm dating somebody, right, So it's

342
00:13:13,160 --> 00:13:14,920
Speaker 3: the same concept. You got to go through the same

343
00:13:15,000 --> 00:13:18,079
Speaker 3: recovery steps of getting past that threshold.

344
00:13:18,120 --> 00:13:19,080

Speaker 3: the Insiders Show here on Financial Fridays Only, you were

358
00:14:00,640 --> 00:14:01,319
Speaker 3: saying such a.

359
00:14:01,280 --> 00:14:02,080
Speaker 2: Deep story, do that.

360
00:14:02,120 --> 00:14:04,960
Speaker 3: It really gets be involved like that because I've never

361
00:14:05,040 --> 00:14:07,679
Speaker 3: heard somebody ask me that question ever in my life.

362
00:14:07,679 --> 00:14:09,920
Speaker 5: And it's such a deep one and you're so true.

363
00:14:10,320 --> 00:14:15,080
Speaker 3: It's very similar from a business transaction tool a love transaction.

Speaker 2: It's crazy. So please continue with your story.

365
00:14:17,880 --> 00:14:19,880
Speaker 6: Yeah, and I kind of, you know, jump to that,

366
00:14:20,040 --> 00:14:22,000
Speaker 6: because this is obviously a longer story and I don't

367
00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:23,720
Speaker 6: want to boor on the audience. And there's a whole

368
00:14:23,720 --> 00:14:25,520
Speaker 6: method behind why I'm here today and what we're doing

369
00:14:25,520 --> 00:14:27,880
Speaker 6: with Financial Fridays. But I think by sharing my story

370
00:14:28,120 --> 00:14:30,400
Speaker 6: and being a little bit more vulnerable, perhaps it'll help

371
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:32,840
Speaker 6: somebody down the line, either not to get screwed or

372
00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:34,720
Speaker 6: it'll inspire him on how to make a little bit

373
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:36,560
Speaker 6: more money not get fucked over by anybody the way

374
00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:39,960
Speaker 6: I did. Right, So going through all that, you know,

00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:42,080

Speaker 2: Yeah.

404
00:15:41,280 --> 00:15:44,200
Speaker 6: So, after after about fifteen seventeen years, I had my

405
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:47,080
Speaker 6: own firm, was doing well, doing remotely well, you know,

406
00:15:47,120 --> 00:15:48,960
Speaker 6: four or five hundred thousand a year, that what most

407
00:15:49,040 --> 00:15:49,960
Speaker 6: average advisors do.

408
00:15:50,520 --> 00:15:52,240
Speaker 2: And uh, that's pretty fucking well.

409
00:15:52,280 --> 00:15:52,520
Speaker 4: Brother.

410
00:15:52,640 --> 00:15:55,640
Speaker 6: Yeah, we opened a restaurant actually here in sant Ana

411
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:58,000
Speaker 6: called Tommy Pastrami Delian Bar, right across from the ron

412
00:15:58,080 --> 00:16:00,240
Speaker 6: Reaguan Federal building down to sant Anna.

413
00:16:00,480 --> 00:16:01,160
Speaker 4: So we built our.

414
00:16:01,080 --> 00:16:03,560
Speaker 6: Restaurant out together, living life. And then the recession hit

415
00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:06,520
Speaker 6: and he decided he want to do real estate. And

416
00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:12,360
Speaker 6: his date huh eight, yeah, exactly want to talk about

417
00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,600
Speaker 6: opening a restaurant at the wrong fucking time, and restaurant's

418
00:16:14,600 --> 00:16:17,480
Speaker 6: already tough. But anyways, the restaurant was I was suffering,

419
00:16:17,640 --> 00:16:19,800
Speaker 6: the businesses were suffering, and he wanted to go do

420
00:16:19,880 --> 00:16:21,720
Speaker 6: real estate. He always had this vision of owning an

421
00:16:21,720 --> 00:16:24,000
Speaker 6: empire and buying, you know, things for pennies on the

422
00:16:24,040 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 6: dollar every time there's a cycle, which there always is,

423
00:16:26,240 --> 00:16:28,440
Speaker 6: by the way, with real estate, and every rich person,

424
00:16:28,480 --> 00:16:30,320
Speaker 6: you mean, it's usually through real estate that they've made

425
00:16:30,400 --> 00:16:32,560
Speaker 6: an enormous amount of wealth. They'll have other side hustles,

426
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,320
Speaker 6: but it's always real estate. So that was something that

427
00:16:34,400 --> 00:16:37,160
Speaker 6: always had appealed to us. He goes into us real estate.

428
00:16:37,200 --> 00:16:39,520
Speaker 6: I stay with the financial advisor firm. I was a

429
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:42,720
Speaker 6: twenty four, could license you to become an advisor, top

430
00:16:42,760 --> 00:16:47,040
Speaker 6: dog right and help Barry. His mother had been thanksgivings together,

431
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:51,960
Speaker 6: took vacations together, medic.

432
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:57,600
Speaker 4: It's calledole. So keep it toes.

433
00:16:57,920 --> 00:16:59,840
Speaker 6: One day, one day, one of our mutual employees comes

434
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:01,440
Speaker 6: to me and he says, hey, I need to talk

435
00:17:01,480 --> 00:17:03,160
Speaker 6: to you. And usually when somebody says I need to

436
00:17:03,200 --> 00:17:05,119
Speaker 6: talk to you, they either fuck somebody you know, or

437
00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,680
Speaker 6: they want to borrow money. Right, it's never it's never

438
00:17:07,720 --> 00:17:08,320
Speaker 6: anything else.

439
00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:10,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what I mean.

440
00:17:10,760 --> 00:17:12,680
Speaker 6: They want to borrow money, need money. In this case,

441
00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:14,879
Speaker 6: he just starts crying and he says, Yo, it's all

442
00:17:14,880 --> 00:17:15,639
Speaker 6: a Ponzi scheme.

443
00:17:16,520 --> 00:17:17,600
Speaker 4: And he told you that.

444
00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:19,720
Speaker 6: He says that this employee is like talking on twenty

445
00:17:19,720 --> 00:17:22,280
Speaker 6: eight years old, twenty years old, and he says what

446
00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:23,960
Speaker 6: you think? And I call him fuck face because I

447
00:17:24,000 --> 00:17:25,399
Speaker 6: don't want to credit his name no more. So I

448
00:17:25,400 --> 00:17:27,600
Speaker 6: called him fuck face. So he says, yeah, fuck face,

449
00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:31,280
Speaker 6: it's all Ponzi scheme. Everything you think you own, it's

450
00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:33,040
Speaker 6: all ship, it's all shit. And I was like, dude,

451
00:17:33,040 --> 00:17:35,800
Speaker 6: I've seen the apartments, I've walked, I've talked to the tenants,

452
00:17:35,840 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 6: I've seen all the laborers and all this. He's like, yeah,

453
00:17:38,760 --> 00:17:40,680
Speaker 6: but ten people think they own the same house. He's

454
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:41,640
Speaker 6: making freak trustees.

455
00:17:41,680 --> 00:17:41,800
Speaker 1: Now.

456
00:17:41,800 --> 00:17:44,640
Speaker 6: Mind you, at this point, my mom's given her entire

457
00:17:44,640 --> 00:17:47,280
Speaker 6: life savings to him. I know that there's clients of

458
00:17:47,320 --> 00:17:49,240
Speaker 6: his that he's taken every last fucking penny.

459
00:17:51,359 --> 00:17:53,280
Speaker 4: Get round of that, like you throw up?

460
00:17:53,960 --> 00:17:54,520
Speaker 2: I just did.

461
00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:57,879
Speaker 4: I literally just it.

462
00:17:58,000 --> 00:18:00,520
Speaker 6: And it's something that, like I said that, it goes

463
00:18:00,560 --> 00:18:03,439
Speaker 6: back to which one's worse, right, and that's something that

464
00:18:03,480 --> 00:18:04,359
Speaker 6: will always haunt you.

465
00:18:04,400 --> 00:18:05,200
Speaker 4: It's always that something.

466
00:18:05,400 --> 00:18:07,240
Speaker 3: I think, the financial one you want to kill though,

467
00:18:07,560 --> 00:18:09,399
Speaker 3: Like sometimes I get this, I want to kill you,

468
00:18:09,400 --> 00:18:11,400
Speaker 3: but I wouldn't won't, but I speak.

469
00:18:11,119 --> 00:18:13,280
Speaker 6: That first and makes the problems worse. Yeah, and believe me,

470
00:18:13,280 --> 00:18:14,840
Speaker 6: you have those moments, you have those dark you first

471
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:17,120
Speaker 6: want to kill yourself, so dark. Yeah, I remember thinking,

472
00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:17,960
Speaker 6: if this is true.

473
00:18:17,800 --> 00:18:19,359
Speaker 5: Relationship to you, kind of want to kill yourself.

474
00:18:19,560 --> 00:18:21,480
Speaker 2: Yeah. They're both really hard, they're both terrible, and I

475
00:18:21,520 --> 00:18:22,600
Speaker 2: never want to kill myself Jack.

476
00:18:24,080 --> 00:18:28,040
Speaker 4: I never that one. I don't ever feel like girl

477
00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:28,960
Speaker 4: ever made me feel that way.

478
00:18:29,160 --> 00:18:31,560
Speaker 2: But but I think I think what you're basically saying,

479
00:18:31,760 --> 00:18:34,200
Speaker 2: and you know what I've gathered and I've I've seen

480
00:18:34,200 --> 00:18:36,639
Speaker 2: a lot of this. You know, I've watched people in

481
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,639
Speaker 2: the financial world play games. I've even had conversations with

482
00:18:39,680 --> 00:18:41,520
Speaker 2: people and trying to try to lure me into do

483
00:18:41,640 --> 00:18:44,560
Speaker 2: things that are unethical and don't have a certain standard.

484
00:18:44,560 --> 00:18:47,120
Speaker 2: And it sucks because you know, it takes the same

485
00:18:47,119 --> 00:18:48,720
Speaker 2: amount of energy to do the right thing as it

486
00:18:48,760 --> 00:18:51,160
Speaker 2: does to do the wrong thing. And you know, I've

487
00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:55,800
Speaker 2: you know, had many times and and challenges of people

488
00:18:56,119 --> 00:18:59,160
Speaker 2: wanting to take what they believe is a shortcut, and

489
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:01,919
Speaker 2: that shortcut he leads to a collapse, you know, and

490
00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:04,359
Speaker 2: I know that. So I think as a young someone

491
00:19:04,359 --> 00:19:05,960
Speaker 2: at twenty eight years old, you said he was.

492
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:09,720
Speaker 6: Who the guy or you at So the whistleblower is

493
00:19:09,760 --> 00:19:12,320
Speaker 6: twenty eight, but the dude fuck face was like a

494
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:14,960
Speaker 6: year older than me. Oh, so he was a he

495
00:19:15,000 --> 00:19:17,879
Speaker 6: was a whistleblower. Yeah, the whistleblower tells me that this

496
00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:20,639
Speaker 6: is all fraud. He's ratting out, he's rating out my partner,

497
00:19:20,680 --> 00:19:21,040
Speaker 6: my business.

498
00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:22,000
Speaker 2: When you're like fifty seven.

499
00:19:23,680 --> 00:19:28,680
Speaker 6: How old were you at the time, though, forty thirty

500
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:29,159
Speaker 6: years or two?

501
00:19:29,320 --> 00:19:33,000
Speaker 2: Yeah, years ago. He's older than me, you know that, right,

502
00:19:33,680 --> 00:19:34,200
Speaker 2: like four.

503
00:19:34,040 --> 00:19:35,560
Speaker 4: Weeks by all of us too.

504
00:19:36,720 --> 00:19:38,959
Speaker 3: So you didn't kill him, obviously, but you did help

505
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:41,720
Speaker 3: put him in prison. You're just devastated at this point. Yeah,

506
00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,960
Speaker 3: I think at that point, did you believe the whistleblower

507
00:19:44,000 --> 00:19:45,480
Speaker 3: or did you like, wait a minute, how can you.

508
00:19:45,520 --> 00:19:48,240
Speaker 3: I've walked, I've done this, I've touched this. It's hard

509
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,040
Speaker 3: to believe something like that, let alone, how can you

510
00:19:51,119 --> 00:19:52,200
Speaker 3: even fathom going?

511
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:55,159
Speaker 2: Is it true? Because in your eyes your partner, like

512
00:19:55,200 --> 00:19:57,639
Speaker 2: you said, somebody t You've seen it, you touched it.

513
00:19:57,640 --> 00:20:00,600
Speaker 6: You survived the World Trade Center like you literally jumped

514
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,639
Speaker 6: over dead bodies, like you came down the building fucking fell.

515
00:20:03,880 --> 00:20:06,120
Speaker 4: How do you survive that and go fuck people over?

516
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:09,280
Speaker 6: And I remember when he told me that, I'm like,

517
00:20:09,359 --> 00:20:11,320
Speaker 6: if this is true, I need to find the tallest

518
00:20:11,320 --> 00:20:13,679
Speaker 6: building and jump. And I've never felt suicidal. I've been

519
00:20:13,680 --> 00:20:15,240
Speaker 6: too much of a pussy to want to kill myself.

520
00:20:15,440 --> 00:20:17,000
Speaker 6: But for the next three years after that, it was

521
00:20:17,040 --> 00:20:17,560
Speaker 6: dark times.

522
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:17,719
Speaker 4: Man.

523
00:20:17,760 --> 00:20:20,760
Speaker 6: I remember, you know at the time, I had like everything.

524
00:20:20,800 --> 00:20:22,919
Speaker 6: I'm like leveraged to the hilt now trying to protect

525
00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:26,720
Speaker 6: my reputation. I have four attorneys at finra attorney, sec attorney,

526
00:20:26,760 --> 00:20:29,560
Speaker 6: a civil attorney, a criminal attorney. Now he tried to

527
00:20:29,560 --> 00:20:31,080
Speaker 6: even sign a snitch deal and try to blame it

528
00:20:31,119 --> 00:20:33,119
Speaker 6: all on me, but the Feds aren't stupid. It was

529
00:20:33,119 --> 00:20:35,199
Speaker 6: twenty two million dollars and I'd got less than eight

530
00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:37,160
Speaker 6: hundred thousand over fourteen years, and he tried to say

531
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,119
Speaker 6: the payments for the restaurant were like commissioned to me,

532
00:20:39,560 --> 00:20:40,280
Speaker 6: but the Feds didn't.

533
00:20:40,280 --> 00:20:41,200
Speaker 4: By he ended up.

534
00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:44,959
Speaker 6: Getting the maximum penalty, which seventy victims, most of them

535
00:20:45,000 --> 00:20:48,560

00:20:48,600 --> 00:20:50,679
Speaker 6: half years, got out good behavior three forty eight.

537
00:20:51,040 --> 00:20:52,800
Speaker 2: You can steal twenty two million dollars.

538
00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:54,719
Speaker 4: He's out now, exactly.

539
00:20:54,960 --> 00:20:55,399
Speaker 2: I don't think that.

540
00:20:55,400 --> 00:20:57,840
Speaker 4: I think they get him on the show just fucking it.

541
00:20:59,240 --> 00:20:59,879
Speaker 2: I do think it.

542
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:01,600
Speaker 4: Want you guys are talking out on here that I

543
00:21:01,640 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 4: did love to have that.

544
00:21:03,200 --> 00:21:09,800
Speaker 5: Ladies and gentlemen, dude, can you imagine that conversation?

545
00:21:09,880 --> 00:21:11,520
Speaker 3: Hey, hold on, you sit over there, and you sit

546
00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:14,720
Speaker 3: over here, Oh you asked whole when you decided to

547
00:21:14,760 --> 00:21:15,800
Speaker 3: take everyone's money?

548
00:21:15,880 --> 00:21:19,040
Speaker 5: Is was your idle Bernie made off fucking goon.

549
00:21:19,920 --> 00:21:22,600
Speaker 6: Yeah no, And you know, shame And you know I

550
00:21:22,640 --> 00:21:24,639
Speaker 6: share a lot of this sometimes because I think sometimes

551
00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:26,680
Speaker 6: it could help somebody else, because no, it does. So

552
00:21:26,760 --> 00:21:29,359
Speaker 6: there's decisions that I made that could have hurt other people.

553
00:21:29,400 --> 00:21:31,439
Speaker 6: I would get so fucked up out of maseraety that

554
00:21:31,560 --> 00:21:34,119
Speaker 6: was like about to get foreclosed on. I go to

555
00:21:34,160 --> 00:21:37,240
Speaker 6: the casino I'd get belligerent, drunk. I'd win a lot

556
00:21:37,240 --> 00:21:39,000
Speaker 6: of money, but i'd give I felt dirty, like I

557
00:21:39,040 --> 00:21:42,000
Speaker 6: felt bad having money anymore, because it's like almost like

558
00:21:42,040 --> 00:21:44,320
Speaker 6: survivors guilt, Like how did I not know I'm a

559
00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,879
Speaker 6: financial advisor and my best friend who's a financial advisor

560
00:21:46,880 --> 00:21:48,720
Speaker 6: just fucked me and my family and my clients and

561
00:21:48,760 --> 00:21:51,200
Speaker 6: my friend's over, you know. So I would I would

562
00:21:51,200 --> 00:21:52,639
Speaker 6: get behind the wheel of a car. I'd go one

563
00:21:52,720 --> 00:21:56,240
Speaker 6: hundred and ten coming home belligerent, wanting to die, but

564
00:21:56,480 --> 00:21:58,359
Speaker 6: not shame on me for not realizing I could have

565
00:21:58,440 --> 00:22:00,800
Speaker 6: killed somebody else. And I say, now I have an

566
00:22:00,880 --> 00:22:02,919
Speaker 6: army of Guardian angels. I get goosebum. I'm saying that

567
00:22:02,960 --> 00:22:04,720
Speaker 6: because I feel like I owe it to somebody else

568
00:22:04,760 --> 00:22:07,000
Speaker 6: now to share the story, to keep talking about it,

569
00:22:07,200 --> 00:22:10,080
Speaker 6: become a better version of myself and make a message

570
00:22:10,080 --> 00:22:12,440
Speaker 6: out of the mess. Because this was a fucking mess, dude,

571
00:22:12,480 --> 00:22:14,399
Speaker 6: and it literally wiped out three or four years of

572
00:22:14,400 --> 00:22:17,120
Speaker 6: my life. But after that, and the reason we're talking

573
00:22:17,119 --> 00:22:19,040
Speaker 6: about this is not to get everybody else suicidal, but

574
00:22:19,880 --> 00:22:22,320
Speaker 6: is there is a path out. And then once I

575
00:22:22,359 --> 00:22:25,280
Speaker 6: became vulnerable, I put myself out in the personal development space.

576
00:22:25,320 --> 00:22:26,760
Speaker 6: I started talking to other people that weren't going to

577
00:22:26,840 --> 00:22:28,639
Speaker 6: judge me based on how much money I had, but

578
00:22:28,680 --> 00:22:30,720
Speaker 6: they wanted to hear the story. And I had a

579
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,560
Speaker 6: good friend of mine, Ryan Stuman, who's the first mentor

580
00:22:33,600 --> 00:22:36,080
Speaker 6: that I met. And this dude is it's got a

581
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:38,680
Speaker 6: double felon and he've been to prison several times, divorced

582
00:22:38,680 --> 00:22:39,800
Speaker 6: three times.

583
00:22:39,800 --> 00:22:40,560
Speaker 4: And he's a mentor.

584
00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,800
Speaker 6: Yeah, and he tells me and yeah, and now this

585
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,040
Speaker 6: dude's got a life, beautiful wife, four kids, you know,

586
00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:50,000
Speaker 6: literally pillar of the community, multiple exotic cars, this and that.

587
00:22:50,520 --> 00:22:52,560
Speaker 6: And he's like, dude, I can't get a job at McDonald's.

588
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:55,480
Speaker 6: What's your fucking excuse? And that that's something triggered me

589
00:22:55,520 --> 00:22:57,040
Speaker 6: when he told me that, because I was like, all right,

590
00:22:57,119 --> 00:22:58,879
Speaker 6: I don't have a criminal record, never got a DUI

591
00:22:59,080 --> 00:23:01,040
Speaker 6: didn't kill anybody, I don't know anybody.

592
00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:01,280
Speaker 4: Shit.

593
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:03,720
Speaker 6: Yeah, I just lost every fucking penny. I got to

594
00:23:03,720 --> 00:23:04,960
Speaker 6: figure out what the fuck I want to do. But

595
00:23:05,880 --> 00:23:07,679
Speaker 6: you know, it could be worse. And then I realized

596
00:23:07,680 --> 00:23:10,280
Speaker 6: there's people like literally on their deathbed wishing for one

597
00:23:10,320 --> 00:23:12,600
Speaker 6: more day, and here I am pissed off about money.

598
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:13,480
Speaker 4: And things started.

599
00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:15,920
Speaker 6: Things started to change you know half the people here

600
00:23:15,920 --> 00:23:18,399
Speaker 6: in the studio audience, like I've known some of them

601
00:23:18,440 --> 00:23:20,600
Speaker 6: since fifteen sixteen. And when you go through shit like that,

602
00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:22,560
Speaker 6: you realize who your friends were. Sure, when I was

603
00:23:22,560 --> 00:23:24,359
Speaker 6: the big baller at the casinos, I could bring my

604
00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:26,240
Speaker 6: friends on jets and have the bottle service and this

605
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,679
Speaker 6: and that, the phone was ringing every week. When you

606
00:23:28,760 --> 00:23:31,320
Speaker 6: lose everything and they know you're going through shit, that

607
00:23:31,440 --> 00:23:33,680
Speaker 6: phone didn't ring. I wouldn't leave the house for a week.

608
00:23:33,680 --> 00:23:35,120
Speaker 6: I do or dashed three times a day. I waited

609
00:23:35,160 --> 00:23:36,719
Speaker 6: like twice as much as I do now. I wouldn't

610
00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:39,359
Speaker 6: take a shower, But nobody called, nobody checked out. Maybe

611
00:23:39,400 --> 00:23:41,560
Speaker 6: five six people, some of them are here today.

612
00:23:41,800 --> 00:23:42,159
Speaker 2: Sure.

613
00:23:42,200 --> 00:23:44,240
Speaker 6: And then all the new friends that I have now

614
00:23:44,280 --> 00:23:46,280
Speaker 6: that circle me, I've all. I've met them all in

615
00:23:46,320 --> 00:23:49,480
Speaker 6: the past four years. All my old friends I don't

616
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:51,800
Speaker 6: even know them.

617
00:23:50,920 --> 00:23:54,400
Speaker 2: You know. So it's safe to say that you know

618
00:23:55,160 --> 00:23:59,680
Speaker 2: you're you're a true believer and being mentored, right yeah,

619
00:24:00,080 --> 00:24:00,240
Speaker 2: you know?

620
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:02,800
Speaker 6: And again right now I'm no longer a financial advisor.

621
00:24:02,840 --> 00:24:04,640
Speaker 6: I actually has a whole other episode. But I told

622
00:24:04,840 --> 00:24:08,200
Speaker 6: Finnra and Thes to go fuck off because they literally

623
00:24:08,240 --> 00:24:10,240
Speaker 6: are not there to protect the investors, and I didn't

624
00:24:10,240 --> 00:24:12,280
Speaker 6: want to jump through. They wouldn't let me have these conversations.

625
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:14,000
Speaker 6: I can have social media, I can speak from stage,

626
00:24:14,000 --> 00:24:15,720
Speaker 6: I can write a book, I can have a podcast.

627
00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,240
Speaker 6: So I told them to go fuck off, take all

628
00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:18,919
Speaker 6: my licenses. I want to tell my story. You're not

629
00:24:18,960 --> 00:24:21,840
Speaker 6: going to silence me anymore. And I think when people

630
00:24:21,920 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 6: ask me, now, what should I invest? And I have

631
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,160
Speaker 6: ten twenty grand, I'm like, that's all you got? Yeah,

632
00:24:25,160 --> 00:24:28,879
Speaker 6: I'm like, investing in yourself. You're your single best investment. Sure,

633
00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 6: go sign up for a mastermind, join a networking group,

634
00:24:31,400 --> 00:24:34,199
Speaker 6: hire a personal coach, get in fucking shape. Yeah, do

635
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:36,679
Speaker 6: shit like that, and everything else will fix itself. But

636
00:24:36,720 --> 00:24:38,760
Speaker 6: if you're focused on how can I turn my ten

637
00:24:38,840 --> 00:24:40,640
Speaker 6: grand into a million with bitcoin and all that shit,

638
00:24:40,680 --> 00:24:43,200
Speaker 6: you're going to fucking be miserable. But once you're happy

639
00:24:43,240 --> 00:24:45,239
Speaker 6: with yourself and you surround yourself with good people, good

640
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:46,280
Speaker 6: shit just starts to happen.

641
00:24:46,400 --> 00:24:48,879
Speaker 2: Well, it goes with this the bear of life, you know.

642
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,760
Speaker 2: And I try to preach this amongst our whole team.

643
00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:55,720
Speaker 2: It's believe energy, action, results be ear If you believe

644
00:24:55,720 --> 00:24:58,200
Speaker 2: in something, there's energy with energy. There's action. With action,

645
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:01,280
Speaker 2: there's results, the fortunes and follow up. You know, it's

646
00:25:01,280 --> 00:25:03,439
Speaker 2: a race to be great. Don't be late. Once your

647
00:25:03,440 --> 00:25:05,600
Speaker 2: mind expands from its original form, it will never come

648
00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:09,800
Speaker 2: back right. And then be unrealistic because wealthy people were

649
00:25:09,840 --> 00:25:12,640
Speaker 2: very unrealistic. We do unrealistic things. We have unrealistic things

650
00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:16,159
Speaker 2: we do, you know, everything, and then care and communicate,

651
00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:18,679
Speaker 2: you know, and and just be fucking honest. You know,

652
00:25:18,880 --> 00:25:22,879
Speaker 2: it's pretty simple, but it does start with a belief system.

653
00:25:22,960 --> 00:25:25,240
Speaker 2: I believe that if you believe in yourself and you

654
00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,399
Speaker 2: believe in what you're trying to achieve, you know, I

655
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:30,600
Speaker 2: think you can go anywhere. And sometimes I don't believe

656
00:25:30,600 --> 00:25:33,240
Speaker 2: the people around you believe it. And and it's hard

657
00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,760
Speaker 2: because you're looking at them going like, this is where

658
00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:38,639
Speaker 2: I'm going, and there's going nah, dude, you know, and

659
00:25:38,880 --> 00:25:40,680
Speaker 2: they may not even say that, but you could read

660
00:25:40,680 --> 00:25:43,000
Speaker 2: it all over their fucking face. And then when you

661
00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,760
Speaker 2: do it, they you know, they they believe more. And

662
00:25:45,800 --> 00:25:48,280
Speaker 2: then sometimes you know, it's it's a person next to

663
00:25:48,320 --> 00:25:50,200
Speaker 2: you that makes you great, you know, or the person

664
00:25:50,240 --> 00:25:51,640
Speaker 2: next to you they're trying.

665
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:53,800
Speaker 4: To pull you down.

666
00:25:54,119 --> 00:25:56,800

707
00:27:35,600 --> 00:27:36,399
Speaker 5: business with.

708
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:39,840
Speaker 3: Somebody that is the watch out for this, because I

709
00:27:39,880 --> 00:27:42,320
Speaker 3: didn't see this and this is how I and my

710
00:27:42,480 --> 00:27:44,480
Speaker 3: family and my clients were hurt.

711
00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:47,560
Speaker 6: Great, great question, man. I don't get that asked too

712
00:27:47,560 --> 00:27:49,520
Speaker 6: often or often enough. And I think one of the

713
00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:53,040
Speaker 6: reasons I've started multiple education platforms now like Insider Investor

714
00:27:53,040 --> 00:27:56,040
Speaker 6: Club or Financial Fridays is because if that question was

715
00:27:56,040 --> 00:27:59,320
Speaker 6: asked more and if people heard these little tips, it'll

716
00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:01,320
Speaker 6: it'll that on time you're about to get fucked. Your

717
00:28:01,320 --> 00:28:03,159
Speaker 6: Grandma's gonna get fucked you Like, wait a second, I

718
00:28:03,200 --> 00:28:06,320
Speaker 6: remember that, right, So the premise of the show that

719
00:28:06,359 --> 00:28:08,520
Speaker 6: we're doing right now is to give people that knowledge.

720
00:28:08,600 --> 00:28:11,040
Speaker 6: So the answer to your question, man, the first thing

721
00:28:11,080 --> 00:28:14,879
Speaker 6: I remember is this dude. He'd met his wife at Denny's.

722
00:28:14,880 --> 00:28:16,760
Speaker 6: He was an illegal immigrant, he was a dishwasher. So

723
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,359
Speaker 6: they had history twenty years. He put her through law school,

724
00:28:19,480 --> 00:28:21,600
Speaker 6: she put him through financialising school, et cetera, et cetera.

725
00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:23,600
Speaker 4: So they had a tight knit relationship. What a great story.

726
00:28:23,640 --> 00:28:26,760
Speaker 4: Two boys and they had two boys. Really we really

727
00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:28,600
Speaker 4: should though, I mean, I just love that, you know,

728
00:28:28,640 --> 00:28:29,359
Speaker 4: I'll be honest with you.

729
00:28:29,359 --> 00:28:31,359
Speaker 6: I thought about that many times, and we really should

730
00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:34,479
Speaker 6: want The one time I called him out, I attacked him.

731
00:28:34,480 --> 00:28:36,600
Speaker 6: And you ever seen scarface when his when his sister

732
00:28:36,600 --> 00:28:38,120
Speaker 6: goes to the bathroom and he sees red, and you

733
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:39,880
Speaker 6: just know, that's what happened to me.

734
00:28:39,920 --> 00:28:40,840
Speaker 4: Apparently I threw ship.

735
00:28:40,920 --> 00:28:42,560
Speaker 6: I tried to, like, I can only imagine That's what

736
00:28:42,560 --> 00:28:44,920
Speaker 6: I'm saying, And I only think it for you.

737
00:28:45,240 --> 00:28:46,760
Speaker 2: I mean, because you have to let the hanger go.

738
00:28:46,920 --> 00:28:50,880
Speaker 4: It's like an episode of You're done because I feel

739
00:28:50,880 --> 00:28:52,440
Speaker 4: you and I was. I'm joking saying we should have

740
00:28:52,480 --> 00:28:52,680
Speaker 4: them on.

741
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:56,040
Speaker 3: There is another, bigger, deeper But although there's a real

742
00:28:56,120 --> 00:28:58,560
Speaker 3: side of I can still see how you wouldn't and

743
00:28:58,640 --> 00:29:01,600
Speaker 3: couldn't because there's the I couldn't do it, But please

744
00:29:01,640 --> 00:29:02,880
Speaker 3: continue with your story.

745
00:29:03,000 --> 00:29:04,400
Speaker 6: It would have been easier while he was in prison.

746
00:29:04,440 --> 00:29:06,200
Speaker 6: We all have ways to, you know, do that, and

747
00:29:06,240 --> 00:29:08,800
Speaker 6: I think I had to kind of like I had

748
00:29:08,800 --> 00:29:10,680
Speaker 6: to kind of like think I want to be above that,

749
00:29:10,800 --> 00:29:12,560
Speaker 6: and at some point I don't want to go down

750
00:29:13,240 --> 00:29:16,160
Speaker 6: for his shit or put myself into the same category

751
00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,560
Speaker 6: as him, right, you get it could be religious, it

752
00:29:18,560 --> 00:29:19,080
Speaker 6: could be whatever.

753
00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:21,440
Speaker 4: You kind of got to let go, and.

754
00:29:20,920 --> 00:29:22,280
Speaker 6: It felt a little bit more freedom when I was

755
00:29:22,320 --> 00:29:25,040
Speaker 6: just more focused on me than the past. But not

756
00:29:25,160 --> 00:29:26,840
Speaker 6: to say that if he wasn't here, I would fucking

757
00:29:26,840 --> 00:29:28,240
Speaker 6: strangle him with the scord. I can't tell you that

758
00:29:28,280 --> 00:29:31,360
Speaker 6: I wouldn't do that. But the answer to your question,

759
00:29:31,440 --> 00:29:34,320
Speaker 6: Joe is a the first sign for me now that

760
00:29:34,440 --> 00:29:36,360
Speaker 6: in respect, when I look back and I do judge,

761
00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,760
Speaker 6: and I do look at my friends. Sometimes we all

762
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:41,440
Speaker 6: have friends that are loyal, We have some of the

763
00:29:41,520 --> 00:29:45,520
Speaker 6: cheat right. And this dude had two boys, married for

764
00:29:45,520 --> 00:29:50,320
Speaker 6: twenty years, and he's not just cheating one time twice strippers, hookers,

765
00:29:50,480 --> 00:29:53,680
Speaker 6: this that right? And I was single, I'm a bachelor,

766
00:29:53,840 --> 00:29:55,479
Speaker 6: like we just go to strip clubs, this and that.

767
00:29:55,640 --> 00:29:57,640
Speaker 6: It wasn't my vibe. But he's doing it, and he's

768
00:29:57,640 --> 00:30:02,480
Speaker 6: doing it. He's cheating on his mistress, right, So character,

769
00:30:02,720 --> 00:30:05,040
Speaker 6: you're gonna cheat on your wife of twenty years, who's

770
00:30:05,080 --> 00:30:06,240
Speaker 6: the mother of your two boys.

771
00:30:06,480 --> 00:30:08,840
Speaker 4: Who's to say you won't cheat on me? Who the fuck? Am? I?

772
00:30:09,080 --> 00:30:09,200
Speaker 6: Right?

773
00:30:10,320 --> 00:30:11,560
Speaker 5: Great, that's a great point.

774
00:30:11,680 --> 00:30:13,600
Speaker 2: I looked. I like that too, and I look at

775
00:30:13,680 --> 00:30:16,160
Speaker 2: characters like that. But you gotta look at this man.

776
00:30:16,320 --> 00:30:19,080
Speaker 2: You know, I agree with you. That's a great you know,

777
00:30:19,200 --> 00:30:21,920
Speaker 2: tell tell, But you can't say that in finances, you know.

778
00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:23,960
Speaker 2: I mean wealthy people out there that aren't cheating people

779
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:26,680
Speaker 2: in business or cheating all over their wives. Man. So

780
00:30:26,840 --> 00:30:30,440
Speaker 2: it's character. I'm just saying, it's character. Doesn't matter your character.

781
00:30:30,560 --> 00:30:31,960
Speaker 2: You do that to your wife, are going to do

782
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:34,280
Speaker 2: that to me? What you can? If my wife did

783
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,720
Speaker 2: it five times too, and we have a whole relationship,

784
00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:38,440
Speaker 2: so be about it, so be it. But I'm just

785
00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:41,080
Speaker 2: saying it's character. It's a way to judge someone. It

786
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:43,320
Speaker 2: is a way to judge someone. I'm saying, I'm saying,

787
00:30:43,760 --> 00:30:45,560
Speaker 2: this is Tony's story. It looks like you're taking it

788
00:30:45,560 --> 00:30:48,960
Speaker 2: defensive right now. What's the problem is, I'm single, you know,

789
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:50,240
Speaker 2: I don't know what you're like.

790
00:30:50,520 --> 00:30:52,680
Speaker 5: Nobody attacks you.

791
00:30:53,800 --> 00:31:01,960
Speaker 3: But I'm just saying, I'm just nobody's making shorts.

792
00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:05,560
Speaker 2: I want to play Devil's advocate with him. Be like, yo,

793
00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,040
Speaker 2: there's a lot of people there in business that are

794
00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:11,600
Speaker 2: in this room kidding. You're hurting some feelings right now.

795
00:31:11,880 --> 00:31:14,360
Speaker 6: Chris is like the astra said, though, yes, I have

796
00:31:14,400 --> 00:31:17,280
Speaker 6: plenty of friends who cheat. But the wife's a bitch,

797
00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:19,360
Speaker 6: you know, and she's probably not putting out or there's

798
00:31:19,400 --> 00:31:22,240
Speaker 6: plenty of reasons why people have bad marriages. Sure, there's

799
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:25,280
Speaker 6: a difference between that. Right when she's cheating, he's cheating.

800
00:31:25,320 --> 00:31:27,680
Speaker 6: They have an open million. This is different when you're

801
00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:30,920
Speaker 6: putting your as the pta parent, you're holding her hand,

802
00:31:30,920 --> 00:31:34,080
Speaker 6: you're going to anniversaries, you're pretending. That's a different story.

803
00:31:34,200 --> 00:31:35,960
Speaker 6: But if you're miserable and you want to cheat, cool,

804
00:31:35,960 --> 00:31:37,400
Speaker 6: she's probably cheating too, like you said.

805
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:39,240
Speaker 4: But again, that's one example. Right.

806
00:31:39,640 --> 00:31:42,680
Speaker 6: The other thing is when somebody starts acting completely uncharacteristic

807
00:31:42,760 --> 00:31:44,880
Speaker 6: of themselves. Right when he got his first trophy wife,

808
00:31:45,000 --> 00:31:46,640
Speaker 6: all of a sudden, he went from I was the

809
00:31:46,640 --> 00:31:48,400
Speaker 6: flashy one. I was the one with the maserati. He'd

810
00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:50,400
Speaker 6: buy a used Beemer. You know, I was the one

811
00:31:50,400 --> 00:31:52,600
Speaker 6: that wanted. He didn't know what a fucking Pheragrahama was right,

812
00:31:52,640 --> 00:31:55,600
Speaker 6: he's wearing and all of a sudden he's rolling up

813
00:31:55,600 --> 00:31:57,720
Speaker 6: with custom suits and asked in and this and that

814
00:31:58,040 --> 00:31:59,760
Speaker 6: to keep up with the trophy wife and keep up

815
00:31:59,760 --> 00:32:00,400
Speaker 6: with the zones.

816
00:32:00,560 --> 00:32:00,880
Speaker 2: Yeah.

817
00:32:01,120 --> 00:32:02,880
Speaker 6: Yeah, when you make money, you start spending and you

818
00:32:02,920 --> 00:32:05,560
Speaker 6: stall philosoph that's a different thing. But when your pole

819
00:32:05,640 --> 00:32:08,120
Speaker 6: persona starts to change all of a sudden, it's not

820
00:32:08,200 --> 00:32:08,720
Speaker 6: the same person.

821
00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:08,920
Speaker 2: You know.

822
00:32:08,960 --> 00:32:11,520
Speaker 6: That's why divorces happened. Just because you met somebody at twenty,

823
00:32:11,400 --> 00:32:13,600
Speaker 6: They change when they're thirty. They changed when they're forty,

824
00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:16,480
Speaker 6: whether it's a girl or a guy. And then I

825
00:32:16,480 --> 00:32:18,640
Speaker 6: think the final one man is and I think this

826
00:32:18,760 --> 00:32:21,040
Speaker 6: is like a Reagan lines, But trust but verify. You know,

827
00:32:21,400 --> 00:32:24,280
Speaker 6: he was given me trusteeds to these properties, he just

828
00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:26,680
Speaker 6: wasn't filing them. I just believed him because I'm signing him.

829
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:28,360
Speaker 6: I see his signature. I just didn't think he's not

830
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:32,080
Speaker 6: going and filing with the recorders. And then if that's trust,

831
00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:35,880
Speaker 6: verify trust, but verify, you know, let me see that

832
00:32:35,920 --> 00:32:36,400
Speaker 6: other part.

833
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:39,200
Speaker 2: Please get receipts. Maybe I need the receipts.

834
00:32:39,440 --> 00:32:40,080
Speaker 4: I need to see it.

835
00:32:40,360 --> 00:32:41,960
Speaker 2: I'll tell you there's there's a you know, for me,

836
00:32:42,120 --> 00:32:44,720
Speaker 2: I've seen a lot of janky shit, you know. And

837
00:32:44,720 --> 00:32:46,719
Speaker 2: and you know, I was part of the big real

838
00:32:46,800 --> 00:32:48,640
Speaker 2: estate boom, and I did the you know TV show

839
00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:50,680
Speaker 2: Flipped this house on A and E with our Monday

840
00:32:50,720 --> 00:32:53,560
Speaker 2: months long ago, and and taught for him and did

841
00:32:53,560 --> 00:32:56,480
Speaker 2: some public speaking for them, and you know, you know,

842
00:32:56,520 --> 00:32:58,720
Speaker 2: I used to sit in the room and and and

843
00:32:58,800 --> 00:33:01,920
Speaker 2: sometimes I felt like, you know, we were bringing in

844
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:04,960
Speaker 2: people for education, you know. And I used to sometimes

845
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:06,640
Speaker 2: be in the room and we'd collect three hundred and

846
00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:09,960
Speaker 2: fifty thousand a weekend, you know, and I'd look in

847
00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,040
Speaker 2: the room and I'd say, fuck, man, you know, half

848
00:33:13,080 --> 00:33:15,440
Speaker 2: these people there's no fucking way, you know, there's no

849
00:33:15,480 --> 00:33:18,520
Speaker 2: fucking way they're gonna make it. And I was like,

850
00:33:18,560 --> 00:33:20,200
Speaker 2: but we're signing them up in the back of the

851
00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:23,560
Speaker 2: room for thirty thousand dollars packages to do mentors and

852
00:33:23,760 --> 00:33:28,160
Speaker 2: educate them, and I remember having this feeling. I literally

853
00:33:28,240 --> 00:33:30,480
Speaker 2: look at them and go, these motherfuckers are never gonna

854
00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:32,640
Speaker 2: make it. And I started feeling really bad about it.

855
00:33:33,000 --> 00:33:36,800
Speaker 2: And then half of them would no, no, not even that.

856
00:33:36,920 --> 00:33:39,200
Speaker 2: There was one day that there was like I was like,

857
00:33:39,280 --> 00:33:40,800
Speaker 2: I was sitting in front of this person and I

858
00:33:40,840 --> 00:33:42,520
Speaker 2: was like, dude, You're not even gonna make this, you know.

859
00:33:42,600 --> 00:33:47,160
Speaker 2: And honestly, what it was is I was that same person,

860
00:33:47,720 --> 00:33:49,600
Speaker 2: you know. I was that same person that was sitting

861
00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:52,360
Speaker 2: in that room, going, you know, I probably ain't gonna

862
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:54,320
Speaker 2: make this, you know what I mean, I shouldn't be

863
00:33:54,360 --> 00:33:56,480
Speaker 2: signing up to this shit. I probably ain't gonna do it.

864
00:33:56,520 --> 00:33:58,560
Speaker 2: But then went out and started flipping a fucking bunch

865
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,760
Speaker 2: of houses and changed my whole entire zip code, my

866
00:34:00,800 --> 00:34:04,800
Speaker 2: lifestyle and everything and so so. But but I couldn't

867
00:34:04,800 --> 00:34:06,680
Speaker 2: believe it while I was taking their money, you know.

868
00:34:07,160 --> 00:34:09,240
Speaker 2: And then it came to a point where I started

869
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:11,760
Speaker 2: to see success stories and then I see the people

870
00:34:11,760 --> 00:34:13,719
Speaker 2: that you were like, this guy's gonna make it, And

871
00:34:13,760 --> 00:34:15,759
Speaker 2: it was usually the people that had the money that

872
00:34:15,880 --> 00:34:18,000
Speaker 2: didn't make it, and the guy that didn't have shit

873
00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:20,640
Speaker 2: that actually did because the guy that had the money,

874
00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:22,359
Speaker 2: he had to expend the income to go ahead and

875
00:34:22,360 --> 00:34:26,280
Speaker 2: lose that shit and not go through and discipline themselves

876
00:34:26,400 --> 00:34:28,279
Speaker 2: enough because they had the shit going on. But the

877
00:34:28,320 --> 00:34:30,480
Speaker 2: guy that was starving, that put his last thirty fucking

878
00:34:30,480 --> 00:34:32,680
Speaker 2: thousand in was the guy that was like, you know,

879
00:34:32,760 --> 00:34:34,759
Speaker 2: at least on the treadmill long enough to one make

880
00:34:34,800 --> 00:34:38,120
Speaker 2: their money back or to you know, get something out

881
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:41,239
Speaker 2: of it, right. And sometimes I don't think you get

882
00:34:41,280 --> 00:34:42,920
Speaker 2: you know, what you think you're going to get out

883
00:34:42,920 --> 00:34:47,240
Speaker 2: of out of you know, you know, mentoring or education,

884
00:34:48,200 --> 00:34:49,960
Speaker 2: but you get what you need, you know. And I

885
00:34:50,320 --> 00:34:55,000
Speaker 2: say that because I thoroughly believe that mentoring is the

886
00:34:55,040 --> 00:34:57,719
Speaker 2: reason I'm here, still alive today, you know. I mean,

887
00:34:57,760 --> 00:34:59,919
Speaker 2: I I was the kid that had a bald head,

888
00:35:00,040 --> 00:35:04,480
Speaker 2: fifty two you know, pants that were stapled down the

889
00:35:04,480 --> 00:35:07,920
Speaker 2: middle to keep them, to keep them, you know, creased because.

890
00:35:07,880 --> 00:35:10,000
Speaker 5: It was a size thirty probably four ways.

891
00:35:10,640 --> 00:35:14,239
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was skinny, bitty, you know, and and and so,

892
00:35:14,440 --> 00:35:16,520
Speaker 2: and I grew up in probably one of the neighborhood,

893
00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:18,880
Speaker 2: one of the roughest neighborhoods in Los Angeles, you know,

894
00:35:19,360 --> 00:35:21,080
Speaker 2: and and I didn't even know that growing up. I

895
00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:23,120
Speaker 2: just fucking there was just home, you know. And then

896
00:35:24,040 --> 00:35:26,400
Speaker 2: you know, I, I, you know, ran across mentors and

897
00:35:26,400 --> 00:35:29,239
Speaker 2: found this in my life, and I realized that, you know,

898
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:33,720
Speaker 2: it's it's language. You know, language is how I I,

899
00:35:33,800 --> 00:35:36,040
Speaker 2: you know, pay attention to people around me, right, what

900
00:35:36,120 --> 00:35:38,880
Speaker 2: they say, how they talk, because I believe that you know,

901
00:35:39,160 --> 00:35:41,279
Speaker 2: everything that comes out of your mouth is is you

902
00:35:41,320 --> 00:35:44,480
Speaker 2: know exactly what you'll get. And and so I watched

903
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:46,759
Speaker 2: people's language, and and and I and I tend to

904
00:35:46,800 --> 00:35:50,600
Speaker 2: see people's negativity, and I sent see people's positivity. And

905
00:35:50,680 --> 00:35:54,120
Speaker 2: people that lead with positivity, and and they believe, and

906
00:35:54,160 --> 00:35:56,359
Speaker 2: they have the belief systems, they generally win.

907
00:35:57,040 --> 00:35:57,239
Speaker 4: You know.

908
00:35:57,480 --> 00:35:59,239
Speaker 6: You know the other thing that comes with mentoring too,

909
00:35:59,239 --> 00:36:00,719
Speaker 6: it's not just the men. And there's a lot of

910
00:36:00,719 --> 00:36:02,520
Speaker 6: bad gurus. There's a lot of bad mentors. You want

911
00:36:02,520 --> 00:36:04,400
Speaker 6: to kind of take the little nuggets out from each one, right,

912
00:36:04,440 --> 00:36:06,560
Speaker 6: Anthony Robbins does some cool ship and some of us hokey.

913
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:08,279
Speaker 6: You know, you don't need to be a personal power

914
00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:09,680
Speaker 6: for eight days to get what you need out of it,

915
00:36:09,719 --> 00:36:12,520
Speaker 6: but some people need it. So some people resonate towards

916
00:36:12,520 --> 00:36:14,319
Speaker 6: certain type of people. Some of them are in your face,

917
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:16,080
Speaker 6: some of them are a little bit more subdued. But

918
00:36:16,120 --> 00:36:19,000
Speaker 6: it's not just that, it's the network you're creating around it. Right,

919
00:36:19,000 --> 00:36:21,640
Speaker 6: there's thirty other people there that obviously are vulnerable enough

920
00:36:21,640 --> 00:36:23,440
Speaker 6: to put themselves in a place where they want to

921
00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:25,640
Speaker 6: pay for that mentorship. But now all of those people

922
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:27,560
Speaker 6: you have a common bond with, and there's people that

923
00:36:27,560 --> 00:36:29,680
Speaker 6: have put their walls down. They're not flossing, they're not

924
00:36:29,680 --> 00:36:31,360
Speaker 6: trying to brag about what they own, and all of

925
00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:33,440
Speaker 6: a sudden, you now have a support system that's not

926
00:36:33,520 --> 00:36:35,200
Speaker 6: your core friends who are judging you because all of

927
00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:36,680
Speaker 6: a sudden you made it and they didn't, or all

928
00:36:36,680 --> 00:36:38,040
Speaker 6: of a sudden, you don't have money and they do.

929
00:36:38,239 --> 00:36:40,719
Speaker 6: But it's brand new people that are all aligned and

930
00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:43,120
Speaker 6: they actually protect each other. So now it's kind of

931
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:45,080
Speaker 6: like you've built a network and you've built a pipeline

932
00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:46,520
Speaker 6: of people that you can hey, what do you think

933
00:36:46,560 --> 00:36:47,880
Speaker 6: of this guy? What do you think of this investment?

934
00:36:47,880 --> 00:36:49,319
Speaker 6: They protect each other and they kind of push each

935
00:36:49,320 --> 00:36:49,640
Speaker 6: other out.

936
00:36:49,800 --> 00:36:49,960
Speaker 1: You know.

937
00:36:50,160 --> 00:36:51,880
Speaker 2: One other thing too, is is I want to just

938
00:36:51,920 --> 00:36:55,319
Speaker 2: share not really for you, Tony, because You've probably heard

939
00:36:55,360 --> 00:36:58,040
Speaker 2: this story in Joe's probably as well, but mainly for

940
00:36:58,080 --> 00:37:02,120
Speaker 2: the people listening is you know, my biggest mentor of

941
00:37:02,120 --> 00:37:06,920
Speaker 2: all times, you know, was you know, a guy by

942
00:37:06,960 --> 00:37:08,560
Speaker 2: the name is Scott Bell. I'll just say his name,

943
00:37:09,680 --> 00:37:14,560
Speaker 2: Scott Bell. And and it wasn't because he it was because.

944
00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:15,359
Speaker 4: He taught me something right.

945
00:37:15,440 --> 00:37:17,640
Speaker 2: And what he taught me is is I rolled out

946
00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:21,600
Speaker 2: an education platform, grow and Grow Rich, and it was

947
00:37:21,600 --> 00:37:23,920
Speaker 2: for the cannabis industry, and I was the first to market.

948
00:37:24,400 --> 00:37:26,919
Speaker 2: It was my idea, my invention. I wrote the fucking book,

949
00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:30,320
Speaker 2: I went out and publicly spoke in twenty four different states.

950
00:37:30,320 --> 00:37:33,719
Speaker 2: I traveled the world every single freaking day. Damn near

951
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,400
Speaker 2: lost my you know, my wife probably lost my wife

952
00:37:36,440 --> 00:37:39,000
Speaker 2: to this day because of it. My whole family at risk.

953
00:37:39,600 --> 00:37:41,440
Speaker 2: And in the belief said I was going to be

954
00:37:41,440 --> 00:37:43,800
Speaker 2: making more money than I ever had. And I'm literally

955
00:37:43,840 --> 00:37:46,319
Speaker 2: watching more money come into this machine that I ever had.

956
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:49,000
Speaker 2: And I remember there was a point where, you know,

957
00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:51,360
Speaker 2: I walked away from the company. And the reason I

958
00:37:51,400 --> 00:37:53,880
Speaker 2: walked away is I hadn't taken a time, but everybody

959
00:37:53,880 --> 00:37:55,880
Speaker 2: thought that I was just rolling heavy because I was

960
00:37:55,880 --> 00:37:58,800
Speaker 2: selling so much fucking weed that. You know, I had money,

961
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:01,200
Speaker 2: you know, so I wasn't worried about the money I was.

962
00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:03,239
Speaker 2: I was worried about building this machine. And he kept

963
00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,360
Speaker 2: telling me we're gonna, you know, we have to reinvest

964
00:38:05,360 --> 00:38:07,879
Speaker 2: everything and this, and that the company is not profitable yet.

965
00:38:08,080 --> 00:38:10,400
Speaker 2: And it wasn't until I was like, fuck, dude, we

966
00:38:10,440 --> 00:38:12,440
Speaker 2: just collected eight thousand. We just collected this, We just

967
00:38:12,480 --> 00:38:14,840
Speaker 2: collected that. We just collected this. And I'm watching it

968
00:38:14,880 --> 00:38:17,160
Speaker 2: and I'm going, damn, dude, we have to be profitable.

969
00:38:17,400 --> 00:38:19,320
Speaker 2: There's no fucking way. And I got with Chris and

970
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,480
Speaker 2: I started reverse engineering it, and I went back. Before

971
00:38:22,520 --> 00:38:24,200
Speaker 2: I'm gonna call this guy a crook or a liar,

972
00:38:24,840 --> 00:38:26,680
Speaker 2: I thought, I have to go back and do all

973
00:38:26,680 --> 00:38:28,360
Speaker 2: my numbers. You know, I'm not gonna call you a

974
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:31,160
Speaker 2: crook or a liar unless I got facts. So I

975
00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,680
Speaker 2: went back and I did every single number, flights, hotels,

976
00:38:35,000 --> 00:38:38,600
Speaker 2: you know, payrolls, you know, commissions, this, that, every everything,

977
00:38:38,880 --> 00:38:41,120
Speaker 2: you know, food and beverage, everything. I did it all,

978
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:43,560
Speaker 2: and I had to right in order to come back

979
00:38:43,560 --> 00:38:46,360
Speaker 2: and be like, bro, there's you know, several million dollars missing.

980
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:50,480
Speaker 2: And so he became my mentor because he fucked me,

981
00:38:51,440 --> 00:38:54,400
Speaker 2: you know what I'm saying, And it forced me to

982
00:38:54,480 --> 00:38:57,920
Speaker 2: go start my own education platform. And you know, we

983
00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:01,480
Speaker 2: did seven million dollars a year ourselves without them, you know,

984
00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:05,239
Speaker 2: but without losing my ass. You know, there's no way

985
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:07,839
Speaker 2: I would have learned everything I had to learn by

986
00:39:07,920 --> 00:39:10,560
Speaker 2: him not fucking me. So I found the beauty in

987
00:39:10,920 --> 00:39:11,919
Speaker 2: getting the You know.

988
00:39:11,920 --> 00:39:13,520
Speaker 6: It's funny to say that, man, because my mom I

989
00:39:13,560 --> 00:39:16,520
Speaker 6: remember at the deepest, darkest times and she's like, you know,

990
00:39:16,640 --> 00:39:19,440
Speaker 6: I lost my personal wealth. Thankfully, none of my clients

991
00:39:19,440 --> 00:39:21,719
Speaker 6: lost everything. You know, I only put ten or twenty

992
00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:23,799
Speaker 6: percent of anybody's money into the real estate and refer

993
00:39:23,880 --> 00:39:24,680
Speaker 6: to them over to him.

994
00:39:25,120 --> 00:39:25,960
Speaker 4: He was heartless though.

995
00:39:25,960 --> 00:39:27,840
Speaker 6: At the victim impact statements, like there was people that

996
00:39:27,840 --> 00:39:29,680
Speaker 6: would show up to say we took we buy to

997
00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:32,239
Speaker 6: ply toilet paper and split it in two because we

998
00:39:32,239 --> 00:39:34,600
Speaker 6: don't have enough money for toilet paper. There's like people

999
00:39:34,640 --> 00:39:37,520
Speaker 6: crying saying their dad passed away because he couldn't afford

1000
00:39:37,520 --> 00:39:39,960
Speaker 6: the metal care because fuck face had taken every penny.

1001
00:39:40,000 --> 00:39:43,120
Speaker 4: So so yeah, man, you learn a lot from that.

1002
00:39:43,160 --> 00:39:45,320
Speaker 4: But going through all that, I remember my mom asking

1003
00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:46,880
Speaker 4: me once, She's like, you know, you lost it. How

1004
00:39:46,920 --> 00:39:48,480
Speaker 4: does it feel like? How do you wake up every day? No?

1005
00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:51,000
Speaker 6: And you lost five million dollars And I was like,

1006
00:39:51,080 --> 00:39:53,080
Speaker 6: you know, maybe God did this to me so that

1007
00:39:53,160 --> 00:39:55,319
Speaker 6: I lost five millions so I could save fifty million

1008
00:39:55,400 --> 00:39:56,000
Speaker 6: down the line.

1009
00:39:56,080 --> 00:39:56,239
Speaker 2: Right.

1010
00:39:56,239 --> 00:39:58,880
Speaker 6: I still kept thinking big, I've never had a scarcity mindset.

1011
00:39:59,160 --> 00:40:00,879
Speaker 6: Now it hasn't MATERI realize that I'm sure as fuck

1012
00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,359
Speaker 6: they don't have fifty million, But I will say that

1013
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:05,000
Speaker 6: there's something that I'm really proud.

1014
00:40:04,840 --> 00:40:06,200
Speaker 2: Of, is fifty two.

1015
00:40:06,960 --> 00:40:08,680
Speaker 6: A good friend of mine's have a mastermind, and I

1016
00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:10,680
Speaker 6: found out there's another guy doing a Ponzi scheme. So

1017
00:40:10,680 --> 00:40:13,400
Speaker 6: I started blasting them out, and I called it out early,

1018
00:40:13,480 --> 00:40:15,959
Speaker 6: and I'd help these people get almost half a million

1019
00:40:15,960 --> 00:40:18,080
Speaker 6: dollars back by doing the certain things and calling them

1020
00:40:18,120 --> 00:40:19,759
Speaker 6: out and ask for the money. Backer I can read it,

1021
00:40:19,840 --> 00:40:22,480
Speaker 6: so now I can see that that shit did happen

1022
00:40:22,520 --> 00:40:24,440
Speaker 6: for a reason. Maybe I'm going to say of other people,

1023
00:40:24,480 --> 00:40:27,359
Speaker 6: fifty million aggregate because sharing the story being a bullet

1024
00:40:27,440 --> 00:40:30,319
Speaker 6: bull telling the story, not hiding from it. American greed

1025
00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:32,520
Speaker 6: actually reached out to me when this first happened, and

1026
00:40:32,560 --> 00:40:34,520
Speaker 6: they offered me. I believe it was like one hundred

1027
00:40:34,520 --> 00:40:36,279
Speaker 6: and eighty three thousand dollars at the time, and there

1028
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:37,640
Speaker 6: was a lot of fucking money. And it was a

1029
00:40:37,680 --> 00:40:40,960
Speaker 6: sub syndicate of those type types of shows, and it

1030
00:40:41,040 --> 00:40:42,760
Speaker 6: was more money than I had because I'd lost.

1031
00:40:42,560 --> 00:40:43,560
Speaker 4: Everything was gone.

1032
00:40:43,640 --> 00:40:47,120
Speaker 6: Everything was to attorneys and paying other people's mortgages that

1033
00:40:47,160 --> 00:40:48,719
Speaker 6: I didn't have to, but I felt guilty they were

1034
00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:50,279
Speaker 6: going to like go out on the streets. To this day,

1035
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,480
Speaker 6: I still pay people five hundred thousand dollars a month

1036
00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:54,320
Speaker 6: just because they were eighty five year olds that I

1037
00:40:54,360 --> 00:41:01,280
Speaker 6: had introduced to him. So anyways, I just it looking

1038
00:41:01,320 --> 00:41:04,160
Speaker 6: back now, you know what, I still wish it hadn't happened, absolutely,

1039
00:41:04,400 --> 00:41:04,640
Speaker 6: you know.

1040
00:41:04,719 --> 00:41:06,520
Speaker 4: But but I think.

1041
00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:09,839
Speaker 2: The mentor mentor bro I mean sometimes.

1042
00:41:09,560 --> 00:41:12,200
Speaker 6: That's I would have never met you had this not happened.

1043
00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:14,239
Speaker 6: I don't I don't know if Joe knows the story

1044
00:41:14,280 --> 00:41:14,440
Speaker 6: or not.

1045
00:41:14,920 --> 00:41:15,400
Speaker 4: Story.

1046
00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:16,440
Speaker 5: You guys met at a bar.

1047
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:18,600
Speaker 4: If I'm not mistaken, Yeah, it wasn't a gay bar.

1048
00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:19,319
Speaker 4: It wasn't like.

1049
00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:21,200
Speaker 2: Say that.

1050
00:41:21,239 --> 00:41:23,160
Speaker 4: I don't get that. I'm just lining up for the

1051
00:41:23,239 --> 00:41:23,759
Speaker 4: jokes now.

1052
00:41:24,239 --> 00:41:25,880
Speaker 5: I would never say that joke. I don't know what

1053
00:41:25,920 --> 00:41:26,200
Speaker 5: you mean.

1054
00:41:26,600 --> 00:41:29,440
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's you know, both of you, guys. I've made

1055
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:30,680
Speaker 2: out with both of you, so it doesn't matter.

1056
00:41:30,840 --> 00:41:32,480
Speaker 5: That is true, but I would never I don't think

1057
00:41:32,480 --> 00:41:33,000
Speaker 5: that's it.

1058
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:35,160
Speaker 6: But this is where like, yeah, you know, it doesn't

1059
00:41:35,160 --> 00:41:37,040
Speaker 6: matter what religious person you believe in, but I do

1060
00:41:37,080 --> 00:41:39,160
Speaker 6: believe there's a higher power. I believe shit's happened to

1061
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:39,680
Speaker 6: me for a reason.

1062
00:41:39,760 --> 00:41:43,320
Speaker 3: I remember the day you guys actually met. I remember

1063
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:45,400
Speaker 3: Blue calling me from there. Actually, if I'm not mistaken

1064
00:41:45,440 --> 00:41:47,040
Speaker 3: or I called him and you guys were, oh my god,

1065

00:41:56,239 --> 00:41:57,480
Speaker 4: is empty, it's like four point thirty.

1072
00:41:57,719 --> 00:42:00,560
Speaker 6: There's some wilderbe's bartender that I don't want to talk to,

1073
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:02,279

Speaker 6: You guys don't miss platform. It's built around cannabis. You

1195
00:47:09,480 --> 00:47:12,400
Speaker 6: guys were the pioneers. You're the number one source for cannabis.

1196
00:47:12,440 --> 00:47:15,279
Speaker 6: You just launched the magazine. We're doing events. There are

1197
00:47:15,400 --> 00:47:18,320

1198
00:47:18,360 --> 00:47:20,439

1201
00:47:25,960 --> 00:47:28,520
Speaker 6: You guys did not have to agree to do Financial Fridays.

1202
00:47:28,520 --> 00:47:29,120
Speaker 4: We really have but it.

1203
00:47:36,120 --> 00:47:36,880
Speaker 2: You ain't lying.

1204
00:47:36,960 --> 00:47:37,640
Speaker 4: This is something.

1205
00:47:37,719 --> 00:47:40,560
Speaker 6: But it's a testament to what you guys feel about

1206
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:43,040
Speaker 6: the audience because I feel like, you know, there's a

1207
00:47:43,040 --> 00:47:45,719
Speaker 6: way that we can marry. You know, financial wise can

1208
00:47:45,760 --> 00:47:47,719
Speaker 6: be boring. It's like we're not selling ship. But what

1209
00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:49,680
Speaker 6: if we just had a safe place where we could

1210
00:47:49,680 --> 00:47:51,440
Speaker 6: talk about money. When we were growing up, money was

1211
00:47:51,480 --> 00:47:53,120
Speaker 6: a dirty word to talk about. But it's good to

1212
00:47:53,160 --> 00:47:55,759
Speaker 6: talk about money. It's good to tell people tips, it's

1213
00:47:55,760 --> 00:47:58,600
Speaker 6: good to share your story. And I think next Financial

1214
00:47:58,640 --> 00:48:00,560

Speaker 6: here with with you guys to give something back to

1217
00:48:06,400 --> 00:48:08,399
Speaker 6: every listener that's listened for you guys. So you guys

Speaker 2: You know. I I keep very few people around my

1224
00:48:28,880 --> 00:48:32,560
Speaker 2: inner circle. You know, I'm very standoffish because you know a.

1225
00:48:32,480 --> 00:48:34,440
Speaker 5: Lot sounds like you met him in the bar by asking.

1226
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:40,399
Speaker 2: A movie stand stand off when they know who I am,

1227
00:48:40,719 --> 00:48:42,879
Speaker 2: when they don't know me, I'm more. You know, you're

1228
00:48:42,880 --> 00:48:44,399
Speaker 2: gonna get to know and then I'll push your way.

1231
00:48:50,800 --> 00:48:54,520
Speaker 2: in in you know, in in work mode, it's very

1232
00:48:54,560 --> 00:48:57,200
Speaker 2: hard to figure out whether you know what their intentions are,

1233
00:48:57,280 --> 00:48:59,080
Speaker 2: what their wants, what their needs are. You know. So

1234
00:48:59,160 --> 00:49:01,600
Speaker 2: I'm very you know I I I hold posture. I

1235
00:49:01,640 --> 00:49:03,480
Speaker 2: just I stand away from people a lot, and I

1236
00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:06,680
Speaker 2: protect myself at all all the time, probably more than

1237
00:49:06,719 --> 00:49:08,880
Speaker 2: anybody in here. You know Joe, Joe, you know, they

1238
00:49:08,920 --> 00:49:13,439
Speaker 2: don't even recognize his ass. So don't matter the punch.

1239
00:49:13,480 --> 00:49:13,839
Speaker 2: I don't care.

1240
00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:15,560
Speaker 4: I don't care what you're saying right now. It doesn't

1241
00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:16,080
Speaker 4: even bother me.

1242
00:49:17,320 --> 00:49:20,680
Speaker 2: Play it, no, but google me.

1243
00:49:19,960 --> 00:49:20,400
Speaker 4: There you go.

1244
00:49:21,000 --> 00:49:28,239
Speaker 6: Mind you the board would not work.

1245
00:49:22,360 --> 00:49:30,200
Speaker 2: If you mean, Joseph Lee, what you see.

1246
00:49:32,160 --> 00:49:35,400
Speaker 4: There? You go, You've been around sixty two years.

1247
00:49:35,440 --> 00:49:36,160
Speaker 6: I don't.

1248
00:49:37,520 --> 00:49:37,840
Speaker 2: Google.

1249
00:49:38,680 --> 00:49:40,520
Speaker 5: I was even more famous before Google.

1250
00:49:40,560 --> 00:49:44,720
Speaker 2: Actually that's the worst part about the story.

1251
00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:45,400
Speaker 4: It is true.

1252
00:49:47,560 --> 00:49:50,799
Speaker 2: But listen, No, it's a pleasure to have you, you know.

1253
00:49:50,960 --> 00:49:53,640
Speaker 2: And and I look forward to, uh, you know, just

1254
00:49:53,680 --> 00:49:56,080
Speaker 2: serving a lot of people, man. And I really think

1255
00:49:56,160 --> 00:49:58,960
Speaker 2: that this is going to be an asset to the show, uh,

1256
00:49:59,000 --> 00:50:01,640
Speaker 2: to the to the gre of individuals around us in

1257
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:04,239
Speaker 2: our inner circle. And I look forward to, man, So

1258
00:50:04,480 --> 00:50:04,960
Speaker 2: I really.

1259
00:50:04,840 --> 00:50:07,000
Speaker 3: Look forward to hopefully the people that you bring on

1260
00:50:07,400 --> 00:50:11,440
Speaker 3: will be as vulnerable as you are and share their experienced, strength,

1261
00:50:11,560 --> 00:50:14,640
Speaker 3: knowledge and hope with people on how they can you know,

1262
00:50:14,760 --> 00:50:19,120
Speaker 3: be smart with their intentions, let alone their money their

1263
00:50:19,160 --> 00:50:23,239
Speaker 3: situations because like you said, and I really like what

1264
00:50:23,280 --> 00:50:26,279
Speaker 3: you said, by the way, because I use that as

1265
00:50:26,320 --> 00:50:27,760
Speaker 3: a measuring stick with people.

1266
00:50:28,080 --> 00:50:30,320
Speaker 5: I'll never forget being in a room one day.

1267
00:50:30,239 --> 00:50:31,719
Speaker 3: And I was just saying I was at an AA

1268
00:50:31,760 --> 00:50:33,840
Speaker 3: meeting and it was a menstag and I was like,

1269
00:50:33,880 --> 00:50:36,640
Speaker 3: you know, I don't like to hang out with over

1270
00:50:36,680 --> 00:50:39,439
Speaker 3: twenty four years, twenty five years, and it's over twenty

1271
00:50:39,480 --> 00:50:41,200
Speaker 3: four plus years study around them.

1272
00:50:41,160 --> 00:50:44,279
Speaker 4: That's five years, ain't twenty five.

1273
00:50:44,239 --> 00:50:45,719
Speaker 2: Year, but it'll be in a few days.

1274
00:50:45,760 --> 00:50:49,840
Speaker 3: But my point is to that point, I remember saying

1275
00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:51,960
Speaker 3: on this on the I was called to speak, and

1276
00:50:52,200 --> 00:50:53,840
Speaker 3: you know, I don't like hanging around dudes that are

1277
00:50:53,920 --> 00:50:55,799
Speaker 3: cheating on their wives and this and that, because I'm

1278
00:50:55,800 --> 00:50:56,759
Speaker 3: not trying to be that dude.

1279
00:50:57,080 --> 00:50:58,680
Speaker 5: And you know what, when I was younger, I cheated

1280
00:50:58,719 --> 00:50:59,680
Speaker 5: on every girl I was with, so.

1281
00:50:59,680 --> 00:51:02,040
Speaker 3: I'm not above it, but I don't want to hang

1282
00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:04,640
Speaker 3: out with people like that, right, And I said that,

1283
00:51:04,719 --> 00:51:06,400
Speaker 3: and then a guy that I hang out with came

1284
00:51:06,480 --> 00:51:07,759
Speaker 3: up to me. Dude, he was like, Joe, I'm just

1285
00:51:07,760 --> 00:51:09,319
Speaker 3: going to tell you I'm having a bad marriage. And

1286
00:51:09,360 --> 00:51:11,400
Speaker 3: I know we hang out, and you know, I've been

1287
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:13,200
Speaker 3: known to blah blah blah blah blah. And I'm like, hey, dog,

1288
00:51:13,200 --> 00:51:16,120
Speaker 3: well that you thank you, but I'm you know, But

1289
00:51:16,160 --> 00:51:19,120
Speaker 3: my point to that story is I do the same thing.

1290
00:51:19,200 --> 00:51:22,280
Speaker 3: I will judge a character by what I see as well.

1291
00:51:22,600 --> 00:51:24,680
Speaker 3: And I love that you are vulnerable enough to say

1292
00:51:24,719 --> 00:51:27,560
Speaker 3: that because those are real reasons for you.

1293
00:51:28,239 --> 00:51:30,799
Speaker 5: And I'm related to you, and I related to you

1294
00:51:30,880 --> 00:51:32,239
Speaker 5: and what you said that And not only did I

1295
00:51:32,280 --> 00:51:32,719
Speaker 5: relate to you.

1296
00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:35,480
Speaker 3: I shared my experience with everybody right now where I

1297
00:51:35,520 --> 00:51:37,960
Speaker 3: said it verbally in front of two hundred men, and

1298
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:43,879
Speaker 3: then somebody came up to me afterwards, I apologizing to me, Joe,

1299
00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:45,960
Speaker 3: I've done this, you know, I wanted you to know

1300
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:48,360
Speaker 3: this from me, and I'm like, I'm cool, dog, ye,

1301
00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:49,440
Speaker 3: thank you for telling me.

1302
00:51:49,480 --> 00:51:50,839
Speaker 2: But you know, I'm not chicking rocks.

1303
00:51:51,640 --> 00:51:53,200
Speaker 3: I just don't be doing that ship around me, like

1304
00:51:53,239 --> 00:51:55,520
Speaker 3: I don't knowing that I hang out with dudes like that,

1305
00:51:55,600 --> 00:51:57,799
Speaker 3: and I'm not cool like that, and I don't need

1306
00:51:57,800 --> 00:52:00,560
Speaker 3: to be around that, you know. And and I have

1307
00:52:00,680 --> 00:52:02,200
Speaker 3: friends that I grow up with that are that have

1308
00:52:02,239 --> 00:52:04,759
Speaker 3: done that, and don't get me wrong, but you know,

1309
00:52:04,880 --> 00:52:06,920
Speaker 3: I don't need to go to those things that they do.

1310
00:52:07,000 --> 00:52:09,920
Speaker 3: And so my point too, that is I hope and

1311
00:52:10,040 --> 00:52:13,000
Speaker 3: pray that we get vulnerable people on here to say

1312
00:52:13,080 --> 00:52:16,320
Speaker 3: true stories like that on how they view things, how

1313
00:52:16,360 --> 00:52:20,000
Speaker 3: they see things, because these are the inside looks on

1314
00:52:20,040 --> 00:52:24,120
Speaker 3: the insiders show that I want to hear inside your eyes,

1315
00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:28,000
Speaker 3: your mind, your thoughts, because that right there was information

1316
00:52:28,200 --> 00:52:30,799
Speaker 3: that comes from the heart of my viewpoint, right, and

1317
00:52:30,800 --> 00:52:33,320
Speaker 3: it's not right or wrong. Because Blue made a perfect

1318
00:52:33,320 --> 00:52:35,080
Speaker 3: point too, and I'm not gonna I was joking with them, going,

1319
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:36,120
Speaker 3: oh shut up, it's personal.

1320
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:38,880
Speaker 2: But it's a great point. There's a lot of professional people.

1321
00:52:38,880 --> 00:52:41,719
Speaker 3: The fucking President of the United States cheated, lied, did

1322
00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:43,560
Speaker 3: everything at one point, you know what I mean, And

1323
00:52:43,680 --> 00:52:46,520
Speaker 3: so many others have the current the last one did

1324
00:52:46,960 --> 00:52:49,200
Speaker 3: a few before that, and I'm sure every other one

1325
00:52:49,239 --> 00:52:51,920
Speaker 3: has too. But so even the biggest leaders of our

1326
00:52:51,960 --> 00:52:54,600
Speaker 3: country have lied about it. I'm not saying that I

1327
00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:56,439
Speaker 3: don't hang out with them, but my point to your

1328
00:52:56,520 --> 00:52:59,840
Speaker 3: story is, if you're doing business with someone, it is

1329
00:52:59,880 --> 00:53:01,560
Speaker 3: a good thing to look at.

1330
00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:03,920
Speaker 6: You can count you can count on having that on

1331
00:53:03,960 --> 00:53:05,239
Speaker 6: the show man. That was the whole premise of the

1332
00:53:05,280 --> 00:53:07,160
Speaker 6: Insider Show when I started it, and why we're bringing

1333
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:08,840
Speaker 6: it here. And you can tell from some of the

1334
00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:11,440
Speaker 6: people here there will be guys. I mean, I've realized

1335
00:53:11,480 --> 00:53:13,440
Speaker 6: that you are who you surround yourself with. Now, right,

1336
00:53:13,480 --> 00:53:15,640
Speaker 6: I raised my feor you walk with. I raised my

1337
00:53:15,719 --> 00:53:17,520
Speaker 6: thermostat of who I wanted to hang out with. I

1338
00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:19,040
Speaker 6: didn't want to be at seventy no more, I want

1339
00:53:19,040 --> 00:53:21,640
Speaker 6: to be at seventy five. And then you start attracting

1340
00:53:21,680 --> 00:53:23,839
Speaker 6: those type of people, and now I find the types

1341
00:53:23,880 --> 00:53:26,120
Speaker 6: of people that I find. They're vulnerable, they all have

1342
00:53:26,160 --> 00:53:28,799
Speaker 6: a story. Nobody fucking made it rich. Almost everybody that

1343
00:53:28,880 --> 00:53:30,799
Speaker 6: I know has lost everything at one point in their life.

1344
00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:32,400
Speaker 6: Literally all the people that I have in my circle

1345
00:53:32,440 --> 00:53:34,920
Speaker 6: now that have decent enough wealth or somebody that I

1346
00:53:34,920 --> 00:53:36,600
Speaker 6: would put on a mentorship roll, or somebody that I

1347
00:53:36,640 --> 00:53:38,440
Speaker 6: would want to interview, but I've been blessed.

1348
00:53:38,440 --> 00:53:39,640
Speaker 4: We've all been blessed. Unfortunate.

1349
00:53:39,840 --> 00:53:42,520
Speaker 6: Somehow I attract amazing people from all walks of life,

1350
00:53:42,520 --> 00:53:45,319
Speaker 6: from Super Bowl winners to mister Olympias that you guys

1351
00:53:45,360 --> 00:53:48,160
Speaker 6: have met, to people who have lost everything, been to prison,

1352
00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:50,319
Speaker 6: came back and are killing it but now helping others.

1353
00:53:50,440 --> 00:53:51,600
Speaker 4: So that's the message.

1354
00:53:51,600 --> 00:53:53,120
Speaker 6: And I really think that on Friday we're going to

1355
00:53:53,160 --> 00:53:54,799
Speaker 6: be able to help people and still have fun doing it,

1356
