So we started with the kids, 215 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:56,800 Speaker 6: but we quickly realized that it wasn't an age limit 216 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:58,280 Speaker 6: on this. It was like the parents didn't know the 217 00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:00,600 Speaker 6: things we were talking about. And so like when we 218 00:11:00,679 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 6: realize like, all right, we got something here, let's just 219 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:06,000 Speaker 6: multiply this thing to a point where it's like, now 220 00:11:06,000 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 6: we can teach everybody, because like I said, there's no 221 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 6: age limit to learn of financial education. A fourteen year 222 00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:12,760 Speaker 6: old can no more than a twenty five year old 223 00:11:13,080 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 6: and vice versa. 224 00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:16,800 Speaker 4: So yeah, that's how that's That was the must seed 225 00:11:16,840 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 4: that grew into this. 226 00:11:18,720 --> 00:11:22,040 Speaker 1: That's so dope. That's amazing. I think I think that's true. 227 00:11:22,040 --> 00:11:24,520 Speaker 1: I think especially now. I mean I always say, like 228 00:11:24,600 --> 00:11:28,600 Speaker 1: I feel like the younger generation is so much more 229 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:31,480 Speaker 1: connected into like what, first of all, what's happening in 230 00:11:31,520 --> 00:11:36,040 Speaker 1: the world, more open to really trying to understand financial literacy, 231 00:11:36,400 --> 00:11:38,720 Speaker 1: and a lot of young people understand, I mean know 232 00:11:38,760 --> 00:11:40,280 Speaker 1: what a four oh one k is and I know 233 00:11:40,440 --> 00:11:42,839 Speaker 1: that like some thirty four year olds don't even know 234 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:44,920 Speaker 1: what the fuck that is, you know, So I think 235 00:11:44,920 --> 00:11:47,960 Speaker 1: it's just really I think it's so cool that you have, 236 00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:52,120 Speaker 1: you know, your university and like just the programs for 237 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:56,760 Speaker 1: young people and people of all ages to really understand 238 00:11:57,040 --> 00:12:01,960 Speaker 1: and take control of their life life essentially, because I think, 239 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:04,880 Speaker 1: especially as black people, we just kind of we've been 240 00:12:04,920 --> 00:12:06,880 Speaker 1: told what we can have and what we can't have, 241 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 1: and we've accepted it and we don't ask questions.

It's the one thing 249 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:30,560 Speaker 6: we learned was like, Yo, teaching the kids is going 250 00:12:30,600 --> 00:12:32,760 Speaker 6: to be easier than teaching adults because they have already 251 00:12:33,080 --> 00:12:36,400 Speaker 6: had fears and experiences that will cloud their judgment. Whereas 252 00:12:36,400 --> 00:12:38,959 Speaker 6: the kid they just like, wait, I can make money 253 00:12:38,960 --> 00:12:41,200 Speaker 6: doing this and they so they're much more eager to 254 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 6: do it and learn.

It's financial literacy. You know, 272 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,640 Speaker 5: there's no there's no age limit. And you know, everybody's 273 00:13:33,679 --> 00:13:36,720 Speaker 5: at different points in life. So you might be eighteen 274 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:39,640 Speaker 5: and no you know everything, or you might be sixty 275 00:13:39,720 --> 00:13:42,240 Speaker 5: years old or not really know anything, but you know, 276 00:13:42,320 --> 00:13:44,719 Speaker 5: it's always It's a good thing about financial literacy is 277 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:48,080 Speaker 5: that you can always start and it doesn't matter what 278 00:13:48,120 --> 00:13:49,800 Speaker 5: age you are.

College. Everybody knows. 289 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 5: College is a trillion dollar industry, been around forever as 290 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:23,320 Speaker 5: far as education, even going back to the Greeks and Romans, 291 00:14:23,360 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 5: like you know what I mean, everybody learns going back 292 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:29,080 Speaker 5: to Egypt, ancient Egypt, even before that. So what we 293 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,440 Speaker 5: got right now is, like I said, we just put 294 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 5: a different spin on it because this is the first 295 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:37,720 Speaker 5: time that you know, finance has been talked about in 296 00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:39,520 Speaker 5: a man of how we talk about it, like we 297 00:14:39,560 --> 00:14:41,840 Speaker 5: talk about it, how we how we. 298 00:14:41,760 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 2: Talk like you know, it's just regular.

It's not intimidating. Yeah, speaking English, Yeah, 301 00:14:53,440 --> 00:14:55,960 Speaker 1: because like even sometimes, like I was talking like a 302 00:14:56,000 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: few years ago, I was going through my taxes with 303 00:14:58,160 --> 00:15:00,440 Speaker 1: my tax my tax person who's no longer my person 304 00:15:00,440 --> 00:15:02,200 Speaker 1: because he can speak no goddamn English. I was like, 305 00:15:02,240 --> 00:15:04,720 Speaker 1: what the fuck are you talking about? I don't know 306 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 1: what you're saying.

But I have a question. So 312 00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,800 Speaker 1: what do you actually what do you teach at the academy? 313 00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:27,680 Speaker 1: Like is it like college you get to pick and 314 00:15:27,760 --> 00:15:30,880 Speaker 1: choose your courses or like electives?

And we switched the classes 319 00:15:40,040 --> 00:15:41,960 Speaker 5: up so like today we got a class on credit 320 00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:45,600 Speaker 5: on business credit. Last week we had a class on 321 00:15:45,640 --> 00:15:47,960 Speaker 5: how to read stock charts. So we have a class 322 00:15:48,000 --> 00:15:51,520 Speaker 5: on everything budgeting. You know, how to run systems for 323 00:15:51,560 --> 00:15:54,880 Speaker 5: your business everything. So what happens is that the classes 324 00:15:54,920 --> 00:15:58,000 Speaker 5: get archived, so there's over one hundred past classes that 325 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:01,720 Speaker 5: already happened, so you can browse through it at your 326 00:16:01,800 --> 00:16:03,960 Speaker 5: leisure and you know, pick and choose what you want. 327 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,320 Speaker 5: So it's like different columns.

We have a movie club, a 342 00:16:41,200 --> 00:16:43,600 Speaker 5: book club that Troy is the head of. We have 343 00:16:43,640 --> 00:16:46,480 Speaker 5: a private Facebook group which is a like community within itself, 344 00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:48,960 Speaker 5: five thousand people on Facebook and they share different ideas 345 00:16:48,960 --> 00:16:53,040 Speaker 5: and you know, just communicating all kinds of stuff. We 346 00:16:53,480 --> 00:16:56,000 Speaker 5: have promotion for small businesses, like you can go on 347 00:16:56,360 --> 00:16:58,240 Speaker 5: the Facebook group and promote your business. 348 00:16:58,600 --> 00:16:59,640 Speaker 4: Accountability groups. 349 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:04,159 Speaker 6: Yeah, everybody that joins a has a partner or partners 350 00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:05,760 Speaker 6: that keep them accountable because a lot of times we 351 00:17:05,800 --> 00:17:07,359 Speaker 6: have aspirations and. 352 00:17:07,480 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 4: We kind of keep them to ourselves. 353 00:17:08,760 --> 00:17:11,240 Speaker 6: But we've learned, especially being with our university, is like 354 00:17:11,240 --> 00:17:13,520 Speaker 6: when you share that with somebody, they don't have any 355 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:15,080 Speaker 6: judgment on you, they don't know you. They just know 356 00:17:15,080 --> 00:17:17,119 Speaker 6: your aspiration and so they try to hold you accountable 357 00:17:17,160 --> 00:17:18,959 Speaker 6: for it. And so we got like over two hundred 358 00:17:19,119 --> 00:17:21,359 Speaker 6: maybe three hundred people now that are in accountability groups 359 00:17:21,359 --> 00:17:24,600 Speaker 6: where they've met somebody that has a similar aspiration and 360 00:17:24,600 --> 00:17:27,359 Speaker 6: they're just pushing them to reach their goals. 361 00:17:27,359 --> 00:17:28,600 Speaker 4: Which is dope, right, because a. 362 00:17:28,640 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 6: Lot of time you tell your family member something and 363 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:34,359 Speaker 6: it's like whatever, right, they can't see the ambition. But 364 00:17:34,400 --> 00:17:36,520 Speaker 6: like when you tell a complete stranger, they don't know 365 00:17:36,600 --> 00:17:39,440 Speaker 6: anything about you, Like imagine that, like stranger has no 366 00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:41,879 Speaker 6: idea who you are. They just know the ambition and 367 00:17:41,880 --> 00:17:43,920 Speaker 6: so they try to match that and so it's dope. 368 00:17:43,960 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 6: But it goes back to what you said at the beginning, 369 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:47,240 Speaker 6: like school didn't teach us a lot of things. And 370 00:17:47,400 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 6: I worked in education for seventeen years, I say I 371 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,240 Speaker 6: shouldn't even say worked. We still work in education, we're 372 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:54,880 Speaker 6: just educating in a different format. But like, who else 373 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:57,400 Speaker 6: is going to show you how to create an LLC? Right, 374 00:17:57,440 --> 00:17:59,640 Speaker 6: most people don't even know what LLC is. Who knows 375 00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:02,200 Speaker 6: that you can make money as a notary republic? Nobody 376 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:04,840 Speaker 6: knows these things. So like we found a gap in 377 00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:07,960 Speaker 6: a space of finance that nobody was talking about, especially 378 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:09,680 Speaker 6: to our community. And so it was like, we're gonna 379 00:18:09,680 --> 00:18:13,280 Speaker 6: become the encyclopedia the home and act the Dumbo soup 380 00:18:13,359 --> 00:18:13,800 Speaker 6: for this thing. 381 00:18:14,760 --> 00:18:16,440 Speaker 5: And then we got a real estate department too, so 382 00:18:16,480 --> 00:18:18,119 Speaker 5: a shout out to MG the mortgage. 383 00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,560 Speaker 2: Guy, so he put together a whole course on home buying. 384 00:18:21,600 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 5: Like, if you really think about it, you know, buying 385 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 5: a home is the most important thing that most people 386 00:18:25,600 --> 00:18:28,960 Speaker 5: purchase in their life, their biggest purchase, And they don't 387 00:18:29,000 --> 00:18:30,480 Speaker 5: teach you how to buy a home in school. So 388 00:18:30,520 --> 00:18:32,720 Speaker 5: what happens is that you just kind of figure it 389 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:34,240 Speaker 5: out as you go. You go to the bank. I 390 00:18:34,280 --> 00:18:36,280 Speaker 5: hope that you don't get you know a bad deal, 391 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,160 Speaker 5: but nobody even knows that they're getting a bad deal 392 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:38,399 Speaker 5: or not. 393 00:18:38,880 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 2: So there's so. 394 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,480 Speaker 5: Many different things, like when you're go into buying a home, 395 00:18:41,560 --> 00:18:44,520 Speaker 5: like there's different types of mortgages, there's interest raised, there's 396 00:18:44,640 --> 00:18:48,080 Speaker 5: mortgages for self employed people, all kinds of different programs 397 00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:50,600 Speaker 5: and things of that nature. And most of us, you know, 398 00:18:50,720 --> 00:18:52,680 Speaker 5: a lot of us didn't even come from households with 399 00:18:52,760 --> 00:18:55,000 Speaker 5: people where our parents even owned a home. So we 400 00:18:55,080 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 5: got to just figure it out as we go, and 401 00:18:56,920 --> 00:18:58,520 Speaker 5: you know, we just go to the bank and just 402 00:18:58,560 --> 00:19:00,920 Speaker 5: trust whatever they tell us. And you know, that's kind 403 00:19:00,920 --> 00:19:02,480 Speaker 5: of crazy if you think about, like that's like really 404 00:19:02,480 --> 00:19:04,400 Speaker 5: the most important person decision that a lot of people 405 00:19:04,400 --> 00:19:06,199 Speaker 5: are making in their whole entire life. And there was 406 00:19:06,200 --> 00:19:08,200 Speaker 5: no it's no education on how to buy a home. 407 00:19:08,280 --> 00:19:10,760 Speaker 5: So we got that part of the university as well 408 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:14,200 Speaker 5: as a home buying course and bi weekly real estate 409 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:17,280 Speaker 5: calls to you know, learn about real estate and real 410 00:19:17,359 --> 00:19:19,520 Speaker 5: estate investments. So we just try to just encompass every 411 00:19:19,520 --> 00:19:22,440 Speaker 5: single thing that a person that they don't teach in school, stocks, 412 00:19:22,440 --> 00:19:24,560 Speaker 5: phill estate credit, all that stuff. Everything that they didn't 413 00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:28,680 Speaker 5: teach in school gave us an opportunity to teach, and 414 00:19:28,720 --> 00:19:29,360 Speaker 5: that's what we're doing. 415 00:19:30,160 --> 00:19:34,360 Speaker 1: Do you sleep, you know, like when do you do 416 00:19:34,440 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: things for yourself? 417 00:19:37,680 --> 00:19:38,200 Speaker 2: Good? Question? 418 00:19:41,480 --> 00:19:45,159 Speaker 1: Make kids? Like when the fuck you can't work? 419 00:19:45,359 --> 00:19:47,000 Speaker 4: We work in shifts, working shifts. 420 00:19:47,320 --> 00:19:49,320 Speaker 5: It's crazy that you said about to eat thing, because 421 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:51,560 Speaker 5: I didn't. I haven't really ate. I haven't really eaten 422 00:19:51,680 --> 00:19:54,439 Speaker 5: for the last couple of days. Like I wake up 423 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:57,960 Speaker 5: and I just work, and I'm a bachelor. So I 424 00:19:58,119 --> 00:20:00,399 Speaker 5: just like I ordered uber eats. If I'm hungry at night, 425 00:20:00,440 --> 00:20:02,080 Speaker 5: I just or I only eat, like I don't eat 426 00:20:02,080 --> 00:20:05,960 Speaker 5: that much. I'll eat like dinner. I'll drink water, have 427 00:20:06,040 --> 00:20:08,760 Speaker 5: like a custa something like that. Like you're saying, that's it. Like, 428 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:13,280 Speaker 5: so it's definitely in balanced life right now. But hopefully 429 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:14,920 Speaker 5: you know, we have some level of well, I don't 430 00:20:14,920 --> 00:20:16,120 Speaker 5: know the level of balance that he has. 431 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,119 Speaker 4: Yeah, I gotta have a I mean I got a 432 00:20:18,160 --> 00:20:20,200 Speaker 4: wife and two kids. So like he lives that. 433 00:20:20,320 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 6: Like I always say that because like people like, yo, 434 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:24,560 Speaker 6: how y'all do it? 435 00:20:24,600 --> 00:20:25,720 Speaker 4: I'm like, he lives that life. 436 00:20:25,720 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 6: So I can live this life, right, so I could 437 00:20:27,680 --> 00:20:31,080 Speaker 6: be around my kids, so that I could be around 438 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:33,639 Speaker 6: my wife and balance that because that's tough in itself, right, Like, 439 00:20:34,240 --> 00:20:36,960 Speaker 6: my kids expect to see me, that's what they've seen 440 00:20:37,000 --> 00:20:38,560 Speaker 6: their whole life, and so like this is a change 441 00:20:38,560 --> 00:20:40,280 Speaker 6: for everybody. My wife it was like, Yo, I gotta 442 00:20:40,760 --> 00:20:43,159 Speaker 6: really be present. We had this conversation like maybe a 443 00:20:43,480 --> 00:20:46,119 Speaker 6: month ago. It was like, Yo, being present doesn't just 444 00:20:46,160 --> 00:20:48,040 Speaker 6: mean being in the room, right, Like you got to 445 00:20:48,040 --> 00:20:50,600 Speaker 6: be active, you got to be engaged, and so like, 446 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:52,160 Speaker 6: it's more than just being here. A lot of time 447 00:20:52,200 --> 00:20:55,760 Speaker 6: it's spent doing Leisia, of course, and it's a sacrifice 448 00:20:55,760 --> 00:20:59,480 Speaker 6: on my family. But yeah, man, balance is key, So 449 00:20:59,560 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 6: like he lives that life, so I can live this one. 450 00:21:01,400 --> 00:21:05,040 Speaker 6: So that's my brother. So I always am super appreciative 451 00:21:05,119 --> 00:21:07,000 Speaker 6: of that from him. 452 00:21:07,359 --> 00:21:09,720 Speaker 1: So do you how many kids do you have, Troy? 453 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:11,520 Speaker 4: I have too. I have a boy and a girl. 454 00:21:12,080 --> 00:21:14,560 Speaker 4: My daughter is nine and my son is seven. 455 00:21:15,520 --> 00:21:19,120 Speaker 1: Okay, and you have one? You have one? 456 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:19,360 Speaker 3: Right? 457 00:21:19,640 --> 00:21:25,879 Speaker 1: How did your son okay? Ten? Yeah? So because of 458 00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:27,920 Speaker 1: the work that you do, Like, how do you talk 459 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,000 Speaker 1: to your kids about money, Like, how do you teach 460 00:21:30,080 --> 00:21:32,560 Speaker 1: them about money? I'm sure that they probably know more 461 00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 1: than us. 462 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:39,040 Speaker 6: Yep, yeah, I mean they certainly know more than I did. 463 00:21:39,080 --> 00:21:42,480 Speaker 6: At their age obviously, because as I'm learning, I'm teaching, 464 00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,919 Speaker 6: Like that's just a natural thing for me. Being in 465 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:46,560 Speaker 6: education was like as soon as I learn stuff that 466 00:21:46,560 --> 00:21:48,520 Speaker 6: I got to teach it. And so they come in 467 00:21:48,560 --> 00:21:51,160 Speaker 6: contact with it. They have bank accounts right before they're 468 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:55,280 Speaker 6: ten years old. They understand stocks to a certain extent. 469 00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,199 Speaker 6: They understand real estate to a certain extent. Like when 470 00:21:58,200 --> 00:22:00,360 Speaker 6: I go to pay the mortgage, I bring my son 471 00:22:00,440 --> 00:22:02,639 Speaker 6: with me, so he understands, like, yo, this money's for that. 472 00:22:03,000 --> 00:22:05,040 Speaker 6: And so it's just about exposing them at a level 473 00:22:05,080 --> 00:22:07,560 Speaker 6: that they'll understand it. And as they grow they'll learn 474 00:22:07,600 --> 00:22:10,320 Speaker 6: more and understand more. But the best part is just 475 00:22:10,359 --> 00:22:12,480 Speaker 6: showing them this. They get to see this, right, they 476 00:22:12,520 --> 00:22:14,600 Speaker 6: get to see me working. Like I woke up yesterday 477 00:22:14,640 --> 00:22:16,320 Speaker 6: and my son was like, Daddy, you're not working yet, 478 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,199 Speaker 6: because he understands, like this is. 479 00:22:18,200 --> 00:22:19,720 Speaker 4: Something that he owns and I own right. 480 00:22:19,800 --> 00:22:21,600 Speaker 6: So if I asked him every morning, here who's the boss, 481 00:22:21,640 --> 00:22:24,199 Speaker 6: and he's like, I am right, because he is. He's like, 482 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:25,840 Speaker 6: Ernie Leis is mine and my daughter the same thing. 483 00:22:25,920 --> 00:22:27,919 Speaker 6: Ernie Lei's mind, I'm sure the same thing. They got 484 00:22:27,920 --> 00:22:30,440 Speaker 6: their own little click. Our kids got their own little clique. 485 00:22:30,480 --> 00:22:32,639 Speaker 6: But it's something that we can give to them. Whereas 486 00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 6: when I was teaching, I'll go to work, I miss them. 487 00:22:35,880 --> 00:22:38,159 Speaker 6: I can't go to you know, parent teacher back to 488 00:22:38,200 --> 00:22:40,320 Speaker 6: school nights because I'm doing my own back to school nights. 489 00:22:40,320 --> 00:22:41,080 Speaker 4: So I miss those things. 490 00:22:41,119 --> 00:22:42,680 Speaker 6: And now it's like I have that freedom to do it, 491 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:44,560 Speaker 6: and I couldn't pass that to him. Like I could 492 00:22:44,600 --> 00:22:46,800 Speaker 6: work for twenty five years in the school district and 493 00:22:46,840 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 6: I couldn't guarantee my son or daughter anything but that 494 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:50,600 Speaker 6: I was able to retire. 495 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 4: I couldn't guarantee that they would get an interview or 496 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:54,040 Speaker 4: a job at that school. 497 00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:56,160 Speaker 6: And so passing on ownership to them is something that's 498 00:22:56,160 --> 00:22:57,359 Speaker 6: important they get to witness STFF. 499 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:00,440 Speaker 1: So when you say passing on ownership to your own 500 00:23:00,440 --> 00:23:03,159 Speaker 1: a portion of or in your leisure then or that 501 00:23:03,320 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 1: like here or do like are they on payroll?

That's something 532 00:24:24,359 --> 00:24:27,400 Speaker 5: that any entrepreneurs to take advantage of if you can, 533 00:24:27,560 --> 00:24:31,359 Speaker 5: so you can actually pay you pay your child is 534 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:35,560 Speaker 5: six thousand, twelve thousand, six hundred twove thousand, six hundred, 535 00:24:36,920 --> 00:24:41,879 Speaker 5: and it's tax deductible to the employer and it's tax 536 00:24:41,960 --> 00:24:44,480 Speaker 5: free to the to the child as long as the 537 00:24:44,600 --> 00:24:48,640 Speaker 5: child is a reasonable working age and can perform some 538 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:52,040 Speaker 5: level of reasonable job. So like my son is, like 539 00:24:52,119 --> 00:24:54,560 Speaker 5: you know, he's real big on YouTube. He watches YouTube 540 00:24:54,600 --> 00:24:55,439 Speaker 5: all the time and all that. 541 00:24:55,520 --> 00:24:56,680 Speaker 2: So that's his. 542 00:24:56,760 --> 00:24:59,119 Speaker 5: Job to kind of give me different ideas on social 543 00:24:59,200 --> 00:25:02,560 Speaker 5: media and things of that. So paid him twelve thousand 544 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:04,400 Speaker 5: dollars at the end of the year. Twelve thousand, five 545 00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:06,520 Speaker 5: hundred I think was exactly. At the end of the year. 546 00:25:06,560 --> 00:25:10,200 Speaker 5: We all took distribution, so you know, I put twelve thousand, 547 00:25:10,240 --> 00:25:13,359 Speaker 5: five hundred into his account. But then even bigger than that, 548 00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,720 Speaker 5: we put it in a what's called the UTMAH, which 549 00:25:15,800 --> 00:25:18,919 Speaker 5: is a it's an investment account. So saving money, we 550 00:25:18,920 --> 00:25:20,840 Speaker 5: all know, saving money is kind of like losing money 551 00:25:20,880 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 5: because with inflation, you're not if you're not earning money. 552 00:25:23,800 --> 00:25:25,399 Speaker 5: If you're not making money on your money, then you 553 00:25:25,440 --> 00:25:28,400 Speaker 5: actually lose money because the dollar is devalued every day. 554 00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:31,680 Speaker 5: So from there, you know, now his money is invested 555 00:25:31,680 --> 00:25:34,600 Speaker 5: in stocks, so you know he has a stock account. 556 00:25:34,640 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 5: So not only do we get a tax deduction as 557 00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:38,719 Speaker 5: a company, he doesn't have to pay taxes on it. 558 00:25:39,000 --> 00:25:41,280 Speaker 5: He can it actually grows. It's grown in an account 559 00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 5: for him. So you know, by the time he's twenty 560 00:25:44,119 --> 00:25:47,000 Speaker 5: years old, you know he'll have a nice lump sum 561 00:25:47,040 --> 00:25:49,399 Speaker 5: of money that will be in a a in a 562 00:25:49,480 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 5: stock account, and you know he can just live his 563 00:25:52,880 --> 00:25:54,760 Speaker 5: life however he wants to live. So that's really big 564 00:25:54,800 --> 00:25:56,919 Speaker 5: for me. It's just like I feel like, you know, 565 00:25:57,000 --> 00:26:00,840 Speaker 5: we just people being an entrepre It just allows you 566 00:26:00,880 --> 00:26:03,320 Speaker 5: to do things your way. And that's something that's real 567 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:05,679 Speaker 5: big to me. And just try to impress on my 568 00:26:05,760 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 5: son for sure, like you know, there's no rules to life, 569 00:26:08,520 --> 00:26:10,040 Speaker 5: Like you know, they try to put rules on you, 570 00:26:10,119 --> 00:26:11,800 Speaker 5: like you gotta get up at a certain time, you 571 00:26:11,840 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 5: gotta eat at a certain time, you gotta do this. 572 00:26:13,960 --> 00:26:16,040 Speaker 5: But he sees me, I get up whenever I want, 573 00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:18,119 Speaker 5: I go to sleep, whenever I want, I eat, whenever 574 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:20,719 Speaker 5: I want because I just do whatever I want to do. 575 00:26:20,960 --> 00:26:23,760 Speaker 5: So you know, he already has that impression. So if 576 00:26:23,800 --> 00:26:26,480 Speaker 5: he wants to go to school, cool, If not, if 577 00:26:26,520 --> 00:26:28,480 Speaker 5: he has something better to do, at least he'll have 578 00:26:28,520 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 5: some money put aside for him so he can start 579 00:26:30,720 --> 00:26:32,119 Speaker 5: a business, he can start a real estate, he can 580 00:26:32,119 --> 00:26:34,320 Speaker 5: do whatever you want to do. So these are things 581 00:26:34,320 --> 00:26:37,240 Speaker 5: that we just learned. We're learning as we go. Like 582 00:26:37,280 --> 00:26:38,919 Speaker 5: even with the trucking, you know, we had to learn 583 00:26:38,960 --> 00:26:41,000 Speaker 5: about that, like this a six thousand pound rule, Like 584 00:26:41,040 --> 00:26:43,720 Speaker 5: if you buy a truck or a vehicle over six 585 00:26:43,760 --> 00:26:46,000 Speaker 5: thousand pounds, you can write off the whole entire amount. 586 00:26:46,359 --> 00:26:48,840 Speaker 5: So when we brought that truck, you know, it's one 587 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:51,280 Speaker 5: hundred percent tax deductible to the company. We did it 588 00:26:51,280 --> 00:26:54,280 Speaker 5: in the company's name, brought it from the company's bottom line. 589 00:26:54,320 --> 00:26:56,199 Speaker 5: So now we get to take a deduction for that 590 00:26:56,240 --> 00:26:58,679 Speaker 5: whole amount. I think the truck will like all together 591 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:01,560 Speaker 5: probably like something like that. Yeah, so that was like 592 00:27:01,560 --> 00:27:04,840 Speaker 5: a ninety thousand dollar tax deduction. So you know, it's 593 00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:06,600 Speaker 5: so many different things. We can go on and on 594 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:08,960 Speaker 5: and on, but these are all things that, like I said, 595 00:27:08,960 --> 00:27:11,680 Speaker 5: you never learned. I never write these things in school. 596 00:27:11,720 --> 00:27:14,159 Speaker 5: I never even learned these things out of school. I 597 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:16,960 Speaker 5: just learned these things from just our network, our show 598 00:27:17,080 --> 00:27:18,560 Speaker 5: and the relationships that we building. 599 00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:20,639 Speaker 2: It's just like, oh, this is crazy. Learn this knowledge 600 00:27:20,680 --> 00:27:21,000 Speaker 2: is power. 601 00:27:21,080 --> 00:27:23,040 Speaker 5: You save so much money, you make so much money, 602 00:27:23,280 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 5: and you realize that, you know, the way that we 603 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:28,199 Speaker 5: was taught to actually make money is flawed. That's not 604 00:27:28,240 --> 00:27:29,879 Speaker 5: actually the best way to go about it. 605 00:27:30,160 --> 00:27:32,960 Speaker 6: So yeah, it's crazy. So due to matter, So somebody 606 00:27:33,000 --> 00:27:34,360 Speaker 6: write and knowes. So like, if you do that math 607 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:37,360 Speaker 6: on that, right, you put twelve six or twelve five 608 00:27:37,400 --> 00:27:39,520 Speaker 6: into your account when they're seven years old. By the 609 00:27:39,520 --> 00:27:42,040 Speaker 6: time they ten, you already have one hundred and twenty 610 00:27:42,040 --> 00:27:44,919 Speaker 6: five thousand or more for your child. Imagine that, Like 611 00:27:44,960 --> 00:27:47,280 Speaker 6: how many of us had one hundred and twenty five 612 00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:49,679 Speaker 6: thousand waiting for us when we were eighteen? Right that, 613 00:27:49,800 --> 00:27:51,399 Speaker 6: now the decision becomes do I want to go to 614 00:27:51,480 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 6: college or do I want to start something different? Right, 615 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 6: And it's not like oo, I got to take out 616 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:58,199 Speaker 6: student loan and being that for thirty more years, I 617 00:27:58,240 --> 00:28:00,400 Speaker 6: have money to go to college if I want, right, 618 00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:02,639 Speaker 6: it's on me. And that that's just if we just 619 00:28:02,680 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 6: put it in the account. That's not even what outside 620 00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:07,600 Speaker 6: of the compound of interest if you put it in 621 00:28:07,640 --> 00:28:10,440 Speaker 6: the UPMA and growing on stocks like it's just things 622 00:28:10,440 --> 00:28:13,160 Speaker 6: that like again, we never knew and our parents probably 623 00:28:13,480 --> 00:28:16,440 Speaker 6: didn't know either, and so now it's time to change 624 00:28:17,080 --> 00:28:22,240 Speaker 6: the conversation and the level of literacy for our culture. 625 00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:26,600 Speaker 3: I have a question in the UTMA that type of account. 626 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,360 Speaker 3: Are you choosing the type of stocks that are there 627 00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:33,080 Speaker 3: being invested in or is it just like distributed amongst 628 00:28:33,240 --> 00:28:35,040 Speaker 3: different types of stocks and you have no saying that, 629 00:28:35,080 --> 00:28:35,840 Speaker 3: how does that work? 630 00:28:36,400 --> 00:28:38,240 Speaker 5: Yeah, you can choose it. You choose whatever you want. 631 00:28:38,840 --> 00:28:40,680 Speaker 5: So I just brought some stocks for my son today 632 00:28:40,680 --> 00:28:45,840 Speaker 5: in his account. I brought a gaming ETF so it's 633 00:28:45,840 --> 00:28:49,200 Speaker 5: like video games companies because he plays video games. 634 00:28:49,040 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 2: All the time. 635 00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:50,880 Speaker 5: So I figured it'd be a good idea for me 636 00:28:50,920 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 5: to actually buy some video games companies like Nintendo, things 637 00:28:53,880 --> 00:28:54,400 Speaker 5: of that nature. 638 00:28:54,760 --> 00:28:58,640 Speaker 2: I brought Apple for him. 639 00:28:57,400 --> 00:28:59,160 Speaker 5: So I might buy a Tesla. I'm waiting for it 640 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:01,120 Speaker 5: to pull back a little bit. But yeah, you can 641 00:29:01,160 --> 00:29:02,600 Speaker 5: do whatever you want. You can buy any stock you want. 642 00:29:03,800 --> 00:29:08,440 Speaker 1: That's cool. My question is okay, So like yes, putting 643 00:29:08,440 --> 00:29:11,160 Speaker 1: twelve twelve thousand five hundred dollars in your kid's account 644 00:29:11,240 --> 00:29:13,720 Speaker 1: at the end of the year is ideal, right, but 645 00:29:13,800 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 1: like for like, for me as a single parent, do 646 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:20,520 Speaker 1: I have twelve thousand dollars five hundred dollars twelve thousand, 647 00:29:20,560 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 1: five hundred dollars to put in my my my kids 648 00:29:22,960 --> 00:29:25,480 Speaker 1: account at the end of the year, like that? Is 649 00:29:25,520 --> 00:29:28,520 Speaker 1: that like the maximum in order to get that. 650 00:29:28,040 --> 00:29:29,440 Speaker 4: That that's the max. 651 00:29:29,480 --> 00:29:30,040 Speaker 2: That's the max. 652 00:29:30,080 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 1: But that's not so you don't have you don't have 653 00:29:31,960 --> 00:29:33,440 Speaker 1: to put that amount right now. 654 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,160 Speaker 5: You could do whatever you want. And that's just if 655 00:29:35,160 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 5: you own a business to get a tax reduction. But 656 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,200 Speaker 5: anybody can open an utmah, you could put fifty dollars 657 00:29:40,200 --> 00:29:41,960 Speaker 5: a month, and you could put twenty five dollars a 658 00:29:41,960 --> 00:29:44,320 Speaker 5: month whatever.

You know, obviously, you know, we had 662 00:29:51,560 --> 00:29:53,200 Speaker 5: we had a good year, so he was fortunate. 663 00:29:53,240 --> 00:29:55,280 Speaker 1: But no, no, yeah, no, I'm just I'm just trying 664 00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:56,800 Speaker 1: to I'm just trying to for the people that are 665 00:29:56,840 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 1: listening that you know, are like, oh shit, well wait, 666 00:29:59,120 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 1: how am I can I do I even can I 667 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:05,160 Speaker 1: even do this?

Because you know, if you're if 680 00:30:35,240 --> 00:30:37,480 Speaker 1: when your child turns eighteen and they have this lump 681 00:30:37,480 --> 00:30:39,360 Speaker 1: sum of money, like and they decide they don't want 682 00:30:39,400 --> 00:30:41,920 Speaker 1: to go to college, is that something that you, as 683 00:30:41,960 --> 00:30:45,080 Speaker 1: an educator Troy would be disappointed in? Or like would 684 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,680 Speaker 1: you would you encourage your child to go to school 685 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:51,160 Speaker 1: or would you be more like, you know what, I've 686 00:30:51,200 --> 00:30:55,959 Speaker 1: given you the tools, you don't really need this business. 687 00:30:55,520 --> 00:30:55,960 Speaker 4: You know what? 688 00:30:56,080 --> 00:30:58,560 Speaker 6: I think my goal is to have them have a 689 00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:01,600 Speaker 6: free choice, right and not feel burden right, Like I 690 00:31:01,640 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 6: remember going to school, it was like, how am I 691 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:03,640 Speaker 6: going to go? 692 00:31:03,960 --> 00:31:05,160 Speaker 4: Even if I want to go, how am I going 693 00:31:05,200 --> 00:31:05,400 Speaker 4: to go? 694 00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 6: Like my parents can't afford this, And so for them 695 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:09,920 Speaker 6: to have the choice to say, you know what, I 696 00:31:09,960 --> 00:31:13,000 Speaker 6: want to go to school great, or like that I've 697 00:31:13,040 --> 00:31:15,360 Speaker 6: learned so much from what you're doing. Can I run 698 00:31:15,400 --> 00:31:17,040 Speaker 6: one of the companies for you? Or can we start 699 00:31:17,040 --> 00:31:19,440 Speaker 6: our own business together. I think those are the type 700 00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:20,760 Speaker 6: of conversations I'm looking forward to. 701 00:31:21,160 --> 00:31:21,760 Speaker 4: And so like. 702 00:31:21,960 --> 00:31:25,840 Speaker 6: Obviously working in education and understanding the system, and then 703 00:31:25,880 --> 00:31:29,160 Speaker 6: now having earn your leasure, realizing like, wait, I paid 704 00:31:29,160 --> 00:31:31,760 Speaker 6: all that money and I didn't learn any of these things. 705 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:34,320 Speaker 6: It's like it's kind of double as sport. It's like 706 00:31:34,600 --> 00:31:36,240 Speaker 6: I don't want to force them to do anything. And 707 00:31:36,280 --> 00:31:39,840 Speaker 6: I think that's what happens when you have the education. 708 00:31:39,960 --> 00:31:42,000 Speaker 6: It's like you can make an educated choice. 709 00:31:42,560 --> 00:31:42,720 Speaker 4: Right. 710 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:44,600 Speaker 6: A lot of times it was like the goal was 711 00:31:44,640 --> 00:31:47,360 Speaker 6: like go to school four years, get a good job, 712 00:31:47,480 --> 00:31:50,600 Speaker 6: work twenty five years, retire, And now they're looking at 713 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:53,200 Speaker 6: me and I'm not even forty yet and they're like, wait, 714 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:57,320 Speaker 6: my dad doesn't go to work anymore. Like it's a difference, 715 00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:02,520 Speaker 6: And so I encourage them to make their own choice, 716 00:32:02,600 --> 00:32:04,040 Speaker 6: but I'm gonna give them the tools. 717 00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:06,760 Speaker 4: As as they grow so that that is a good choice. 718 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 3: I love that because I definitely felt like I had 719 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 3: to go to college. I felt like that was the 720 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:15,640 Speaker 3: only option. I felt like if I didn't go, where 721 00:32:15,680 --> 00:32:17,760 Speaker 3: would I what would I do later? Well, and like 722 00:32:18,800 --> 00:32:20,920 Speaker 3: and it didn't serve me. It didn't serve me unl 723 00:32:21,000 --> 00:32:22,840 Speaker 3: Luckily I didn't take out any student loans. 724 00:32:22,920 --> 00:32:23,960 Speaker 1: I didn't finish either. 725 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:26,040 Speaker 3: But I was just talking to my homegrow about this, 726 00:32:26,160 --> 00:32:29,320 Speaker 3: Like school, like you said, it really trains you to 727 00:32:29,400 --> 00:32:31,959 Speaker 3: be a worker, be you know.

So like, if you 766 00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:08,480 Speaker 6: think of the Industrial Revolution, everybody worked in a factory, 767 00:34:08,480 --> 00:34:11,359 Speaker 6: and so that's the same model that they built schools around. Right, 768 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:13,960 Speaker 6: you go into a building, you don't come out of 769 00:34:13,960 --> 00:34:16,600 Speaker 6: that building to a certain time. When the bell rings, 770 00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:18,720 Speaker 6: that means the shift is over. When the bell rings, 771 00:34:18,719 --> 00:34:21,040 Speaker 6: that means the period's over. Everybody goes to lunch at 772 00:34:21,080 --> 00:34:23,080 Speaker 6: the same time. There's a specific space. You need to 773 00:34:23,120 --> 00:34:25,040 Speaker 6: go to the bathroom, you have to sit in your desk. 774 00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:27,759 Speaker 6: There's all these rules and they haven't realized and I 775 00:34:27,760 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 6: think Corona is really amplified it. Like there needs to 776 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:33,359 Speaker 6: be reformed in education because the way that kids learn 777 00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:35,640 Speaker 6: and the things they didn't learn, it will not resonate 778 00:34:35,760 --> 00:34:36,440 Speaker 6: in their future. 779 00:34:36,719 --> 00:34:37,759 Speaker 4: I mean, they don't resonate now. 780 00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:40,560 Speaker 6: Like you said, when you started saying like math, I'm like, 781 00:34:40,600 --> 00:34:42,799 Speaker 6: I remember like being pissed. I didn't know what the 782 00:34:43,200 --> 00:34:45,040 Speaker 6: pythagon ring in theorem was. I'm like, yo, when am 783 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 6: I ever going to use this again? And I never have, 784 00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:49,040 Speaker 6: And it was just like, so what was the point 785 00:34:49,040 --> 00:34:51,920 Speaker 6: of all this, and so like being in that environment 786 00:34:52,040 --> 00:34:54,759 Speaker 6: and knowing that this is flawed, I felt like, yo, 787 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:58,160 Speaker 6: I'm complicit. I just was overwhelmed by complicity. I'm like, yo, 788 00:34:58,440 --> 00:35:00,879 Speaker 6: I'm getting paid to help ki. It's not really learned 789 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:02,960 Speaker 6: anything for their future. And so that's why it was 790 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:04,920 Speaker 6: so important that we did the summer program. And now 791 00:35:04,920 --> 00:35:07,040 Speaker 6: that we're doing this, it's like, Yo, this is way 792 00:35:07,080 --> 00:35:10,360 Speaker 6: more fulfilling because these things that we're teaching now they 793 00:35:10,440 --> 00:35:12,520 Speaker 6: can apply and they can execute on and it can 794 00:35:12,640 --> 00:35:13,920 Speaker 6: change and it could create legacy. 795 00:35:14,000 --> 00:35:16,920 Speaker 1: Like what you said, do your kids have any side hustles? 796 00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:21,239 Speaker 5: Yeah, my son is a YouTuber, so you're not really 797 00:35:21,280 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 5: looking at it like to make money. 798 00:35:22,680 --> 00:35:25,000 Speaker 1: Yet what does he doing playing video games? 799 00:35:25,160 --> 00:35:25,960 Speaker 2: Yeah? 800 00:35:26,000 --> 00:35:27,440 Speaker 5: So you know, I thought it was a good idea 801 00:35:27,520 --> 00:35:30,560 Speaker 5: to have something if you're gonna play, like you know 802 00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:32,960 Speaker 5: what I mean, being creative about it and actually, you know, 803 00:35:33,200 --> 00:35:36,719 Speaker 5: learn how to upload videos and edit videos and things 804 00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:40,240 Speaker 5: of that nature. So he definitely has his own YouTube channel. 805 00:35:41,160 --> 00:35:43,960 Speaker 5: He's a YouTuber, so yeah, I guess that would be 806 00:35:43,960 --> 00:35:46,120 Speaker 5: his side hustle. Like I said, it's not and I 807 00:35:46,120 --> 00:35:48,319 Speaker 5: think that that's important too. It's like everything is not 808 00:35:48,320 --> 00:35:50,640 Speaker 5: always about making money, especially when you're a kid. It's like, 809 00:35:51,160 --> 00:35:53,640 Speaker 5: you know, it's difficult for a regular person to start 810 00:35:53,680 --> 00:35:55,759 Speaker 5: a business, so definitely a kid, but if they can 811 00:35:55,840 --> 00:35:58,839 Speaker 5: actually get into the idea of thinking outside the box 812 00:35:58,880 --> 00:36:00,840 Speaker 5: and thinking like a business, like YouTube is a billion 813 00:36:00,880 --> 00:36:03,920 Speaker 5: dollar business, and even us, like you know what I'm saying, 814 00:36:03,920 --> 00:36:04,560 Speaker 5: we're on YouTube. 815 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:06,319 Speaker 2: We get a nice YouTube check every month. 816 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 5: So now instead of just thinking about it as a 817 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:12,279 Speaker 5: consumer and just going on YouTube to watch it, he's 818 00:36:12,320 --> 00:36:14,640 Speaker 5: actually uploading content on his own and now he's on 819 00:36:14,680 --> 00:36:17,840 Speaker 5: the other side of it where he's actually a content creator. 820 00:36:18,320 --> 00:36:21,120 Speaker 5: So you know, he might have his own YouTube channel 821 00:36:21,560 --> 00:36:23,799 Speaker 5: ten years from now that has a million subscribers, or 822 00:36:23,840 --> 00:36:25,080 Speaker 5: you know, even a couple of years from now that 823 00:36:25,120 --> 00:36:27,640 Speaker 5: has a million subscribers. But even if he doesn't, at 824 00:36:27,719 --> 00:36:30,880 Speaker 5: least he's getting trained to think like, you know, a 825 00:36:30,920 --> 00:36:34,279 Speaker 5: business and an entrepreneur, not just you know, somebody that's 826 00:36:34,320 --> 00:36:37,000 Speaker 5: just a consumer just consuming the content. 827 00:36:37,440 --> 00:36:39,839 Speaker 6: My kids don't have a side hustle yet, and I'm 828 00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,960 Speaker 6: cool with that. I kind of love it because I'm 829 00:36:42,960 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 6: West Indian. My parents are from Jamaica, and so like 830 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:47,000 Speaker 6: there was like three things we had to be. You 831 00:36:47,080 --> 00:36:49,000 Speaker 6: have to be one of those three things. And so 832 00:36:49,120 --> 00:36:50,880 Speaker 6: like to see my kids say like, yo, Daddy, I 833 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:53,000 Speaker 6: want to do a cooking channel on YouTube, and then 834 00:36:53,080 --> 00:36:56,000 Speaker 6: the next week it's something different. And now you know, 835 00:36:56,040 --> 00:36:58,320 Speaker 6: they come down when I'm recording something down here and 836 00:36:58,360 --> 00:37:00,440 Speaker 6: they're like, what buttons do I press? Want to learn 837 00:37:00,440 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 6: how to do that? Or they'll see me editing something 838 00:37:02,560 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 6: they're like, oh, how do you do that? And so 839 00:37:04,239 --> 00:37:06,440 Speaker 6: their mind just runs all over the place, Like right 840 00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:10,400 Speaker 6: now he's in a coding program for roadblocks. So I 841 00:37:10,400 --> 00:37:12,879 Speaker 6: mean every two months it changes. But it's great because 842 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:14,640 Speaker 6: it's like if their minds are spinning, whereas it was 843 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:16,879 Speaker 6: like yo, Troy, you're gonna be a doctor, You're gonna 844 00:37:16,880 --> 00:37:21,040 Speaker 6: be a lawyer.

And it's kind of 887 00:39:16,040 --> 00:39:18,960 Speaker 1: like scary. Yeah, it's scary. It feels like every man 888 00:39:19,080 --> 00:39:20,719 Speaker 1: for himself because you know. 889 00:39:20,680 --> 00:39:22,920 Speaker 3: Like you know, people say that everybody is an entrepreneur 890 00:39:23,320 --> 00:39:24,680 Speaker 3: and that's not true. 891 00:39:24,719 --> 00:39:26,440 Speaker 1: You know, that's obviously not true. 892 00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:30,239 Speaker 3: But like even prior to I'm an esthetician and I 893 00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 3: worked for myself. But but even prior to that, like 894 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,600 Speaker 3: in college or like when I dropped out of college, 895 00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:37,640 Speaker 3: I was being a waitress. 896 00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:41,560 Speaker 1: I was a waitress in Atlanta, and I was making. 897 00:39:41,280 --> 00:39:43,799 Speaker 3: Hella bread, but like just spending that shit as quickly 898 00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:45,600 Speaker 3: I was making it, you know, like making a thousand 899 00:39:45,640 --> 00:39:47,960 Speaker 3: dollars a night and literally just spending it, fucking it 900 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:52,160 Speaker 3: off because I just didn't have any idea about financial literacy, 901 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:54,680 Speaker 3: and so sometimes people like we're in this the age 902 00:39:54,680 --> 00:39:58,360 Speaker 3: of Instagram, or like being an entrepreneur and being your 903 00:39:58,400 --> 00:40:00,719 Speaker 3: own boss is so heavily glorified and you could have 904 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:03,960 Speaker 3: a million great ideas, but if you can't maintain that 905 00:40:04,080 --> 00:40:06,800 Speaker 3: business and you can't monetize it, it doesn't fucking matter. 906 00:40:07,120 --> 00:40:08,799 Speaker 1: People are having to get a lot more have gotten 907 00:40:08,840 --> 00:40:10,920 Speaker 1: a lot more scrappy. I'm sorry to see people get 908 00:40:10,960 --> 00:40:15,239 Speaker 1: really more so into cryptocurrency and because you know, you 909 00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,400 Speaker 1: kind of don't have to rely on the bank anymore. 910 00:40:17,520 --> 00:40:21,640 Speaker 1: And it's like, I'm so new to it.

Get your ass over here. And I went 918 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:39,520 Speaker 1: over to our house one day and then she was like, Okay, 919 00:40:39,680 --> 00:40:41,560 Speaker 1: you need to download this app. Then you gotta download 920 00:40:41,560 --> 00:40:43,000 Speaker 1: this app, you gotta connect and I was like, yo, 921 00:40:43,080 --> 00:40:44,839 Speaker 1: this is hard. And but then once I got in, 922 00:40:44,960 --> 00:40:48,960 Speaker 1: I was like, okay, and I don't she's still learning, 923 00:40:49,000 --> 00:40:50,319 Speaker 1: so I don't know if she did get me all 924 00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:52,400 Speaker 1: the wund Well, let me look, I can open up 925 00:40:52,440 --> 00:40:54,560 Speaker 1: my what is the app that I have on my 926 00:40:54,600 --> 00:40:55,400 Speaker 1: phone yet? 927 00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:56,560 Speaker 4: Bro? 928 00:40:56,719 --> 00:41:01,200 Speaker 1: I got coinbased Pro, I got Cracking Pro, I got 929 00:41:01,280 --> 00:41:07,520 Speaker 1: robin Hood, I got all I bought some current, I 930 00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:11,320 Speaker 1: bought some currency and under the coin based Pro app. 931 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:15,120 Speaker 1: So it's going it's been going up. Ethereum is going up. 932 00:41:17,200 --> 00:41:20,080 Speaker 1: But I but I still feel like I have so 933 00:41:20,160 --> 00:41:22,960 Speaker 1: much to learn, and I'm like, I didn't even I 934 00:41:22,960 --> 00:41:24,840 Speaker 1: didn't even put that much money down because I was scared. 935 00:41:24,840 --> 00:41:27,239 Speaker 1: I was like, I looked at her account, I was like, the. 936 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:27,760 Speaker 4: How much. 937 00:41:30,360 --> 00:41:33,040 Speaker 1: She's like I made two thousand dollars yesterday. I was like, wait, 938 00:41:33,040 --> 00:41:35,800 Speaker 1: hold on, let me let me reevaluate my little, measly 939 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:38,200 Speaker 1: little few hundred dollars I put in here. 940 00:41:38,680 --> 00:41:42,520 Speaker 5: Financial services industry always does well in during recessions because 941 00:41:42,560 --> 00:41:45,759 Speaker 5: people understand that, you know, this is education is the 942 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:47,399 Speaker 5: only thing that could really save them. At this point, 943 00:41:47,800 --> 00:41:49,880 Speaker 5: you know you can't get a job even trying to 944 00:41:49,880 --> 00:41:51,839 Speaker 5: get just no job interviews. You got to interview through 945 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:55,360 Speaker 5: zoom and who's hiring during a global pandemic and you know, 946 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 5: waiting for a stimulus check to save you, Like that's 947 00:41:58,280 --> 00:42:03,600 Speaker 5: that's a joke. So learning these resources is essential. And 948 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 5: it was crazy because it's like you know, in March hit, 949 00:42:06,000 --> 00:42:08,400 Speaker 5: everybody had to stay home unless she was an essential worker, 950 00:42:08,480 --> 00:42:11,440 Speaker 5: Like you couldn't work. Everything got shut down unless she 951 00:42:11,480 --> 00:42:14,080 Speaker 5: was an essential worker. So I feel like for us, 952 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:17,719 Speaker 5: you know, we got deemed essential workers, not by the government, 953 00:42:17,760 --> 00:42:20,399 Speaker 5: by the people because the people propelled us and they 954 00:42:20,560 --> 00:42:22,440 Speaker 5: let us know that we was essential because they just 955 00:42:22,920 --> 00:42:25,320 Speaker 5: flocked to us. A lot of other professions, like a 956 00:42:25,360 --> 00:42:27,439 Speaker 5: lot of rappers stopped doing shows they couldn't make any 957 00:42:27,480 --> 00:42:31,120 Speaker 5: money because they wasn't essential. What they were saying wasn't 958 00:42:31,200 --> 00:42:34,239 Speaker 5: essential and it wasn't really offering any real value that 959 00:42:34,239 --> 00:42:37,000 Speaker 5: could really change somebody's life. It was good entertainment, but 960 00:42:37,200 --> 00:42:39,480 Speaker 5: when you're down on your luck, sometimes you don't want 961 00:42:39,520 --> 00:42:41,600 Speaker 5: to be entertained. Sometimes you want to just figure out 962 00:42:41,600 --> 00:42:42,879 Speaker 5: how I can make some money so I could feed 963 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:46,239 Speaker 5: my family. So this is why I think not just us, 964 00:42:46,239 --> 00:42:49,840 Speaker 5: but the whole financial literacy space just boomed, and it 965 00:42:49,920 --> 00:42:53,040 Speaker 5: helped that the stock market skyrocketed as well. So it 966 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,720 Speaker 5: was a perfect storm as far as for people getting 967 00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,880 Speaker 5: interested in financial literacy. And what we see now is that, 968 00:42:59,000 --> 00:43:02,920 Speaker 5: especially in our culture, the appetite for investing in financial 969 00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:05,839 Speaker 5: literacy is that in all time, how I've never seen 970 00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:10,360 Speaker 5: this many people interested in stocks, crypto, real estate, business, 971 00:43:10,480 --> 00:43:13,040 Speaker 5: everything like that. So definitely, you know, when you look 972 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:14,520 Speaker 5: at investing, the first thing you want to do is 973 00:43:14,680 --> 00:43:17,399 Speaker 5: educate yourself. You know, you never really any if you're 974 00:43:17,400 --> 00:43:19,520 Speaker 5: investing something that you're not educating on, that's more of 975 00:43:19,520 --> 00:43:21,759 Speaker 5: a gamble or a guest. You're just going off a 976 00:43:21,800 --> 00:43:24,640 Speaker 5: speculation on which somebody told you, like you know, it 977 00:43:24,640 --> 00:43:26,360 Speaker 5: could work out, it could not work out, you know 978 00:43:26,400 --> 00:43:28,239 Speaker 5: what I mean. But if you are educated and you 979 00:43:28,360 --> 00:43:31,680 Speaker 5: understand what you're actually doing, then it becomes a game 980 00:43:31,800 --> 00:43:35,280 Speaker 5: of actual knowledge and now you actually have a such strategy. 981 00:43:35,360 --> 00:43:37,800 Speaker 5: So yeah, I mean, you know, we are a big proponent. 982 00:43:37,840 --> 00:43:39,680 Speaker 5: So of its just long term investing. So if you 983 00:43:39,719 --> 00:43:42,480 Speaker 5: buy you know, a stock, stock is a lot less 984 00:43:42,560 --> 00:43:45,080 Speaker 5: volatile than cryptocurrency. But if you buy a stock like 985 00:43:45,320 --> 00:43:49,600 Speaker 5: Apple or Amazon, those companies are going to be here 986 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:51,520 Speaker 5: nine times out of ten, they're gonna be here for 987 00:43:51,560 --> 00:43:54,080 Speaker 5: the next ten twenty years. So hold it by it 988 00:43:54,080 --> 00:43:55,839 Speaker 5: and hold it right and just keep buying it. Then 989 00:43:55,880 --> 00:43:57,880 Speaker 5: you can educate yourself. You can you know, get a 990 00:43:57,880 --> 00:43:59,680 Speaker 5: little bit more risky. You can do trade, you can 991 00:43:59,719 --> 00:44:02,840 Speaker 5: do options, you could do crypto. But for me personally, 992 00:44:03,000 --> 00:44:06,200 Speaker 5: the question about the cryptocurrency, I wouldn't start out with crypto. 993 00:44:06,200 --> 00:44:07,839 Speaker 2: I would start out with stocks first. 994 00:44:08,000 --> 00:44:11,280 Speaker 5: And you know, educate myself, become familiar with stock market, 995 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:16,839 Speaker 5: and dan ben shit into crypto. I feel like if 996 00:44:16,880 --> 00:44:20,239 Speaker 5: I feel like if every cryptocurrency went away today, the 997 00:44:20,280 --> 00:44:23,520 Speaker 5: world wouldn't change, right, It's still a new technology. It 998 00:44:24,080 --> 00:44:26,319 Speaker 5: still has a lot of things like there's no real 999 00:44:26,400 --> 00:44:29,080 Speaker 5: utilization for it yet. And you know, bitcoin is strong, 1000 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,560 Speaker 5: but the vast majority of cryptos probably won't be here. 1001 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:32,920 Speaker 2: They're highly speculative. 1002 00:44:33,160 --> 00:44:35,920 Speaker 5: They're not really based on strong fundamentals as far as 1003 00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:39,160 Speaker 5: they're coin. The technology is firm, blockchain technology is here 1004 00:44:39,200 --> 00:44:42,440 Speaker 5: to stay, but we don't know about these cryptocurrencies. The 1005 00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:45,480 Speaker 5: platforms are still evolving. There's issues with different platforms. It's 1006 00:44:45,480 --> 00:44:48,120 Speaker 5: a lot of different stuff. Where stocks, it's like if 1007 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:51,080 Speaker 5: the stock market went away, then the world would probably 1008 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:56,120 Speaker 5: so correct because that's like all of these companies like Apple, Google, Microsoft, 1009 00:44:56,200 --> 00:44:58,440 Speaker 5: So these are real tangible companies. So you know, if 1010 00:44:58,480 --> 00:45:01,279 Speaker 5: Apple falls apart, it's ripples all across the world. So 1011 00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:03,760 Speaker 5: I would say that investing in the stock market first, because 1012 00:45:03,800 --> 00:45:05,239 Speaker 5: a has been around. 1013 00:45:04,920 --> 00:45:07,680 Speaker 2: A lot, a lot longer, it's a lot less riskier. 1014 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:10,640 Speaker 5: It's way more tangible as far as you're actually investing 1015 00:45:10,680 --> 00:45:15,160 Speaker 5: in solid companies that you know have revenue, have employees, 1016 00:45:15,520 --> 00:45:17,840 Speaker 5: have operations, have systems in place, where a lot of 1017 00:45:17,840 --> 00:45:19,600 Speaker 5: cryptos don't have any of that in place. You don't 1018 00:45:19,600 --> 00:45:21,640 Speaker 5: even know who, Like people still don't know who found 1019 00:45:21,680 --> 00:45:24,920 Speaker 5: it a bigcoin. So I'm not knocking. I'm not knocking cryptocurrency, 1020 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:27,000 Speaker 5: but I just don't think I think that that should 1021 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:27,239 Speaker 5: be a. 1022 00:45:27,200 --> 00:45:28,960 Speaker 2: Part of your portfolio. If you're going to invest in, 1023 00:45:29,280 --> 00:45:29,800 Speaker 2: you shouldn't. 1024 00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:32,920 Speaker 5: Just if you never invested in anything in life, it 1025 00:45:33,000 --> 00:45:34,920 Speaker 5: probably is not the best idea to just put all 1026 00:45:34,920 --> 00:45:37,080 Speaker 5: your money in crypto. It's probably better I did to 1027 00:45:37,080 --> 00:45:39,560 Speaker 5: put some money in stocks and then put a portion, 1028 00:45:39,960 --> 00:45:43,040 Speaker 5: the one that you feel comfortable with into into cryptocurrency. 1029 00:45:43,360 --> 00:45:46,120 Speaker 6: Yeah, and once you start trading in the stock market, 1030 00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:49,920 Speaker 6: you're going to be using this the same uh procedures, 1031 00:45:50,000 --> 00:45:53,160 Speaker 6: the same fundamentals that you learned to trade stocks can 1032 00:45:53,200 --> 00:45:56,800 Speaker 6: be applied to cryptocurrency. So whether we're looking at charge 1033 00:45:56,920 --> 00:46:00,000 Speaker 6: or we're looking at the market caps, it's the same principles, 1034 00:46:00,120 --> 00:46:00,759 Speaker 6: just applying it. 1035 00:46:01,040 --> 00:46:03,760 Speaker 4: Like you said, it's a lot more violet. And that's true. 1036 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:07,680 Speaker 6: Like if dodgecoin disappears tomorrow, it'll be an article and 1037 00:46:07,719 --> 00:46:10,120 Speaker 6: then about a month nobody will be talking about it. Well, 1038 00:46:10,160 --> 00:46:14,240 Speaker 6: that can't happen. Like if a Microsoft disappears, we're in trouble. 1039 00:46:14,400 --> 00:46:16,360 Speaker 6: Something catastrophic has happened. 1040 00:46:18,640 --> 00:46:26,480 Speaker 1: I'm like, right, invest in Amazon, Microsoft? Maybe stop first, Robinhood, 1041 00:46:26,680 --> 00:46:31,760 Speaker 1: delete coin based get while you're ahead, curse Ashley out. 1042 00:46:35,640 --> 00:46:37,600 Speaker 1: So you guys just have an episode about the hottest 1043 00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:40,200 Speaker 1: sectors to invest in? Where do you think? Like, you know, 1044 00:46:40,360 --> 00:46:44,040 Speaker 1: our people are mostly our demographic, mostly women. We do 1045 00:46:44,080 --> 00:46:46,120 Speaker 1: have some men that listen. I don't really think it matters, 1046 00:46:46,120 --> 00:46:48,880 Speaker 1: but like, where would you tell our tribe maybe that 1047 00:46:48,880 --> 00:46:50,800 Speaker 1: they should start investing in right now? 1048 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:55,359 Speaker 6: I mean we always say tech because it encompasses everything. Right, 1049 00:46:55,440 --> 00:46:58,359 Speaker 6: If you look at any company, technology is the root 1050 00:46:58,400 --> 00:47:00,200 Speaker 6: of it. And like most people don't look at it 1051 00:47:00,040 --> 00:47:02,920 Speaker 6: that way, but like a company like Amazon, we think 1052 00:47:02,960 --> 00:47:03,520 Speaker 6: of it as tech. 1053 00:47:03,600 --> 00:47:05,239 Speaker 4: When we say Apple, we think of it as tech. 1054 00:47:05,280 --> 00:47:07,160 Speaker 6: Even like a Dominos, most people think like, oh, it's 1055 00:47:07,160 --> 00:47:08,040 Speaker 6: a great food company. 1056 00:47:08,040 --> 00:47:10,200 Speaker 4: Now they've grown so much money. 1057 00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:12,560 Speaker 6: Because of the technology that they implement it. Right, if 1058 00:47:12,640 --> 00:47:14,680 Speaker 6: you look at what they've done with how you deliver, right, 1059 00:47:14,680 --> 00:47:16,640 Speaker 6: they were the first ones really to say, like, I 1060 00:47:16,800 --> 00:47:18,839 Speaker 6: order it, I can watch the track it when it's 1061 00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:20,960 Speaker 6: being made, I can watch when it's coming, I can 1062 00:47:20,960 --> 00:47:23,680 Speaker 6: watch that it's at my house being delivered. Their technology 1063 00:47:23,680 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 6: has propelled them to a point where now like you 1064 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:27,600 Speaker 6: can get an order standing in the middle of the park. 1065 00:47:28,440 --> 00:47:29,560 Speaker 4: That changes for them. 1066 00:47:30,680 --> 00:47:34,200 Speaker 6: Yeah, So technology is always, always is a good idea 1067 00:47:34,960 --> 00:47:37,879 Speaker 6: and I love and I think will attest to it too. 1068 00:47:37,960 --> 00:47:40,160 Speaker 4: Is semiconductors, which are like microchips. 1069 00:47:40,160 --> 00:47:41,879 Speaker 6: If you watch like the news today over the past 1070 00:47:41,960 --> 00:47:44,440 Speaker 6: couple of weeks, they're like, yo, it's a microchip shortage. 1071 00:47:44,560 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 6: That's because most of the things we use need those ships. Right, 1072 00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:50,279 Speaker 6: whether it's a computer, whether it's a car that we're buying, 1073 00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:53,799 Speaker 6: where it's the iPad, whether these mic everything has chips. 1074 00:47:53,840 --> 00:47:57,920 Speaker 1: And that's my conspiracy theory. I'm like, whether it's the 1075 00:47:57,960 --> 00:47:59,840 Speaker 1: needles they're putting into our body, with the tiny micro. 1076 00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:08,440 Speaker 5: Chip, Microsoft, everybody's head by Elon Musk every single day, Tesla, Google, Facebook, Like, 1077 00:48:08,520 --> 00:48:12,319 Speaker 5: you know, these are not really even complex situations, honestly. So, 1078 00:48:12,800 --> 00:48:15,800 Speaker 5: like he said, technology definitely, and in different sectors in technology, 1079 00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:19,239 Speaker 5: biotech with Corona, you know, that might be something that's 1080 00:48:19,280 --> 00:48:23,600 Speaker 5: really going to spike up biotech, he said. Chips. Those 1081 00:48:23,600 --> 00:48:27,960 Speaker 5: are you know, the chips inside of computers. Cyber technology, 1082 00:48:29,719 --> 00:48:34,160 Speaker 5: cybersecurity technology. Cybersecurity is gonna be big because of you know, 1083 00:48:34,239 --> 00:48:36,360 Speaker 5: computer hacking and things of that nature. So you gotta 1084 00:48:36,960 --> 00:48:38,680 Speaker 5: invest in cybersecurity companies. 1085 00:48:38,680 --> 00:48:42,200 Speaker 6: So cloud service too, cloud service, cloud services, right, that's that. 1086 00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:44,200 Speaker 6: I mean even now when we were talking before, how 1087 00:48:44,280 --> 00:48:47,680 Speaker 6: is this getting saved? Oh, it's gonna go into the cloud, right, 1088 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:49,360 Speaker 6: Like there's no physical domain anymore. 1089 00:48:49,360 --> 00:48:50,880 Speaker 4: Everything is stored into a cloud. 1090 00:48:50,880 --> 00:48:53,680 Speaker 6: So having something that's in the cloud space where Microsoft 1091 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:56,359 Speaker 6: is doing that, Salesforce is doing that. There's a bunch 1092 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:59,480 Speaker 6: of companies doing it. Amazon obviously the number one in 1093 00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:01,520 Speaker 6: the game. Like most people think, like, how does Amazon 1094 00:49:01,600 --> 00:49:03,960 Speaker 6: make money? They think that they gross it because you're 1095 00:49:04,080 --> 00:49:06,040 Speaker 6: ordering deliver every day. No, they make most of their 1096 00:49:06,040 --> 00:49:09,080 Speaker 6: money from their clouds servers. AWS is probably part of 1097 00:49:09,120 --> 00:49:11,440 Speaker 6: the largest corporations in the world use it and so 1098 00:49:11,480 --> 00:49:13,760 Speaker 6: like that. They generate sixty five percent of the revenue 1099 00:49:13,800 --> 00:49:16,360 Speaker 6: from the KLOUD, So definitely clouds. 1100 00:49:16,680 --> 00:49:17,520 Speaker 4: I'm glad you said that. 1101 00:49:19,160 --> 00:49:20,360 Speaker 1: Do you have any more questions? You know what I 1102 00:49:20,360 --> 00:49:21,919 Speaker 1: wanted to do with you, guys. I wanted to play 1103 00:49:21,960 --> 00:49:24,680 Speaker 1: a game called Trigger that we plan on our show. 1104 00:49:24,719 --> 00:49:27,480 Speaker 1: We're like, just still a little detour off of finances, 1105 00:49:27,560 --> 00:49:29,520 Speaker 1: because you know that's what we do. 1106 00:49:31,360 --> 00:49:33,880 Speaker 3: I was with this, I'm like, yeah, money is so 1107 00:49:33,920 --> 00:49:37,360 Speaker 3: important anyway, finness. 1108 00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:38,839 Speaker 1: No, this is about to be money too. But we're 1109 00:49:38,840 --> 00:49:41,879 Speaker 1: gonna ask some questions too, you know. So we game 1110 00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:46,279 Speaker 1: on our show called Trigger, and it's basically, we say 1111 00:49:46,280 --> 00:49:48,600 Speaker 1: a word and y'all say the first thing that comes 1112 00:49:48,640 --> 00:49:51,319 Speaker 1: to mind.

Starts with education. 1358 01:02:33,320 --> 01:02:35,600 Speaker 5: So I will say, you know, there's plenty of podcasts 1359 01:02:35,600 --> 01:02:37,280 Speaker 5: if you want to check our platform out. You know, 1360 01:02:37,280 --> 01:02:41,040 Speaker 5: I think it's a great resource, you know, books, Instagram, 1361 01:02:41,120 --> 01:02:43,800 Speaker 5: things of that nature. And just take a little A 1362 01:02:43,800 --> 01:02:45,960 Speaker 5: lot of times it could be like overwhelming, but just 1363 01:02:45,960 --> 01:02:47,320 Speaker 5: take like a half an hour a day and just 1364 01:02:47,320 --> 01:02:49,360 Speaker 5: trying to educate yourself on something. Just pick a topic 1365 01:02:49,400 --> 01:02:51,600 Speaker 5: like this month, I'm just gonna learn about stocks. I'm 1366 01:02:51,600 --> 01:02:53,000 Speaker 5: not even gona focus on nothing else. I'm just gonna 1367 01:02:53,040 --> 01:02:55,400 Speaker 5: learn about stocks from the beginning level. To you know, 1368 01:02:55,400 --> 01:02:57,000 Speaker 5: whatever it takes me at the end of the month, 1369 01:02:57,040 --> 01:02:58,600 Speaker 5: and then you don't focus on real estate. Thinks that 1370 01:02:58,680 --> 01:03:01,240 Speaker 5: nature of what never feel like you can't do something. 1371 01:03:02,080 --> 01:03:04,640 Speaker 5: It all starts with a baby step. So I would 1372 01:03:04,640 --> 01:03:08,800 Speaker 5: say everything just starts with education. Properly educates yourself. Of course, learn, 1373 01:03:08,960 --> 01:03:12,760 Speaker 5: learn to save, learn that you know, budget is extremely important. 1374 01:03:12,880 --> 01:03:15,200 Speaker 2: Don't live beyond your means. You know things that we 1375 01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:16,400 Speaker 2: all know, but you know, we. 1376 01:03:16,480 --> 01:03:19,920 Speaker 5: Just a lot of times never really follow. But investing 1377 01:03:20,000 --> 01:03:23,920 Speaker 5: is extremely, extremely important, and the hardest part is to start. 1378 01:03:24,120 --> 01:03:26,680 Speaker 5: So once you start, and it actually becomes very addicting, 1379 01:03:26,800 --> 01:03:29,040 Speaker 5: like you know, once you see some success and then 1380 01:03:29,080 --> 01:03:31,120 Speaker 5: it's like, oh this is like it's like anything else. 1381 01:03:31,160 --> 01:03:34,400 Speaker 5: Like once you realize it's not like that hard, then 1382 01:03:34,800 --> 01:03:36,400 Speaker 5: you just want to just put more money in it, 1383 01:03:36,480 --> 01:03:39,040 Speaker 5: because nothing's better than just making money from not. 1384 01:03:39,000 --> 01:03:39,880 Speaker 2: Doing nothing at all. 1385 01:03:40,480 --> 01:03:43,560 Speaker 5: So learn to making money work for you, and that 1386 01:03:43,680 --> 01:03:46,200 Speaker 5: all starts for education. So that would be my advice. 1387 01:03:46,200 --> 01:03:47,680 Speaker 5: That would be my tibot. And like I said, way 1388 01:03:47,680 --> 01:03:50,960 Speaker 5: to get information.
