<v Speaker 3>you guys all the tools that you need to be

0:02:16.560 --> 0:02:20.840
<v Speaker 3>successful in business. And what's been coming up recently we

0:02:20.919 --> 0:02:26.079
<v Speaker 3>posted on Instagram is, uh, you know, intellectual property cases. Right,

0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:28.880
<v Speaker 3>So we look at card E B and she trademarked

0:02:29.000 --> 0:02:30.440
<v Speaker 3>her signature line you want to say.

0:02:30.280 --> 0:02:38.959
<v Speaker 5>The line I gotta say it, so she trademarke.

0:02:40.320 --> 0:02:43.959
<v Speaker 3>She trademarked that. Then we had the Jordan logo, the

0:02:44.000 --> 0:02:46.920
<v Speaker 3>jump Man logo. That was an interesting situation where the

0:02:47.040 --> 0:02:52.080
<v Speaker 3>original photographer of that photo sued Nike because they pretty

0:02:52.160 --> 0:02:55.520
<v Speaker 3>much kind of copied his photo some people think they did, yeah,

0:02:55.560 --> 0:02:58.080
<v Speaker 3>and he lost the lawsuit on that, and then we

0:02:58.120 --> 0:03:01.760
<v Speaker 3>also have the Fortnite case right where Fortnite, if anybody

0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:03.760
<v Speaker 3>is not familiar, it's the most popular video game in

0:03:03.760 --> 0:03:06.400
<v Speaker 3>the world right now, and they do all these different

0:03:06.480 --> 0:03:10.320
<v Speaker 3>dances and the creators of these dances were never converensated

0:03:10.320 --> 0:03:12.840
<v Speaker 3>for it, so they sued Fortnite and it's actually still

0:03:12.840 --> 0:03:17.679
<v Speaker 3>in litigation, but it's pretty complicated. So it's one thing

0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:20.560
<v Speaker 3>to be a creative and to create, right it's another

0:03:20.600 --> 0:03:23.880
<v Speaker 3>thing to actually own what you create and to be

0:03:23.919 --> 0:03:25.440
<v Speaker 3>able to make money off of it. So we're going

0:03:25.480 --> 0:03:30.080
<v Speaker 3>to talk about today is intellectual property, licensing, copyright, trademark,

0:03:30.160 --> 0:03:34.080
<v Speaker 3>all that stuff. So we thought what better way to

0:03:34.160 --> 0:03:37.120
<v Speaker 3>go into this conversation but to bring an expert in

0:03:37.160 --> 0:03:41.760
<v Speaker 3>the field. So we have an attorney to being Franco.

0:03:43.400 --> 0:03:50.040

<v Speaker 3>She has her own law firm. She has her own

0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.160
<v Speaker 3>law firm called the Franco Law Firm. And that's another

0:03:55.200 --> 0:03:56.400
<v Speaker 3>thing we do with the show too. We want to

0:03:56.400 --> 0:04:00.400

<v Speaker 6>We appreciate thank you so much.

0:04:47.640 --> 0:04:51.440
<v Speaker 3>Yes. Yes, so we're gonna jump right into it. Troy Willing, So.

0:04:51.520 --> 0:04:54.520
<v Speaker 5>I mean, obviously you're gonna share your expertise, and a

0:04:54.600 --> 0:04:54.960
<v Speaker 5>lot of.

0:04:54.960 --> 0:04:58.240
<v Speaker 4>Us are novices in this field, so pretty much.

0:04:58.279 --> 0:05:01.080
<v Speaker 5>What is the difference between a pat a copyright, and

0:05:01.120 --> 0:05:01.680
<v Speaker 5>a trademark.

0:05:01.800 --> 0:05:05.640
<v Speaker 7>Let's start there, Okay, So patent, copyrights, and trademarks are

0:05:05.680 --> 0:05:06.960
<v Speaker 7>all intellectual property.

0:05:07.120 --> 0:05:10.040
<v Speaker 6>And what intellectual property is. It's like something that you.

0:05:10.040 --> 0:05:13.200
<v Speaker 7>Create with your mind, right, It's like a creative expression,

0:05:13.720 --> 0:05:16.919
<v Speaker 7>and those different areas are areas that you could create

0:05:16.960 --> 0:05:21.360
<v Speaker 7>you could protect your your creative expression, right. So a

0:05:21.440 --> 0:05:24.440
<v Speaker 7>patent is a protection that you get for an invention.

0:05:24.880 --> 0:05:27.560
<v Speaker 7>So if you have something that's new, that's innovative, that's

0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:29.920
<v Speaker 7>going to change the way that people you know, live

0:05:30.000 --> 0:05:36.599
<v Speaker 7>and work technology, those things are patentable and they're very technical, right,

0:05:37.000 --> 0:05:39.680
<v Speaker 7>so you actually need to be a patent attorney to

0:05:39.720 --> 0:05:43.640
<v Speaker 7>practice patent law. But those things are going to patent

0:05:43.800 --> 0:05:47.080
<v Speaker 7>are going to protect inventions. Copyrights are going to protect

0:05:47.720 --> 0:05:52.400
<v Speaker 7>literary works. So certain things that you that you create,

0:05:52.440 --> 0:05:54.800
<v Speaker 7>but it has to be expressed so it can be

0:05:54.839 --> 0:05:57.520
<v Speaker 7>an idea. So intellectual property can't be an idea. You

0:05:57.560 --> 0:06:00.800
<v Speaker 7>can't protect an idea, so you have to like express it.

0:06:00.800 --> 0:06:02.800
<v Speaker 7>So if it's a writing a story, you got to

0:06:02.839 --> 0:06:06.280
<v Speaker 7>write it down. If it's a song, you have to

0:06:06.520 --> 0:06:09.560
<v Speaker 7>write the lyrics or you could record the music. If

0:06:09.560 --> 0:06:11.360
<v Speaker 7>it's art, you got to draw, you know, it has

0:06:11.400 --> 0:06:13.279
<v Speaker 7>to be drawn or whatever. It has to be expressed

0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:14.160
<v Speaker 7>so somebody.

0:06:13.800 --> 0:06:20.200
<v Speaker 3>Could that's that's for trademarks, that's for copy copyright, trademarks.

0:06:19.880 --> 0:06:23.760
<v Speaker 7>And trademark is basically it's gonna gonna bring somebody.

0:06:23.360 --> 0:06:26.600
<v Speaker 6>Back to the source of a good or service, right,

0:06:26.640 --> 0:06:27.040
<v Speaker 6>So it.

0:06:27.000 --> 0:06:31.680
<v Speaker 7>Represents your business, your brand, and it's gonna put the

0:06:31.760 --> 0:06:35.279
<v Speaker 7>public on notice to know like where to go for

0:06:35.360 --> 0:06:39.159
<v Speaker 7>that particular product or item. So there's two reasons. One,

0:06:39.440 --> 0:06:43.880
<v Speaker 7>you want to protect your your sort of like your work. Right,

0:06:43.960 --> 0:06:46.159
<v Speaker 7>So you create something, you have a business, you put

0:06:46.160 --> 0:06:49.160
<v Speaker 7>all the sweat equity into it, and you have like goodwill.

0:06:49.560 --> 0:06:52.159
<v Speaker 7>You know, as your brand grows, they expect a certain quality,

0:06:52.279 --> 0:06:55.240
<v Speaker 7>is a certain standard from your brand. So you want

0:06:55.279 --> 0:06:56.960
<v Speaker 7>that to be protected so you can make money off

0:06:57.000 --> 0:07:00.920
<v Speaker 7>of it. And then the government, the Copyright Trademark Office,

0:07:01.040 --> 0:07:02.880
<v Speaker 7>they want to make sure that somebody gets hurt from

0:07:02.920 --> 0:07:05.080
<v Speaker 7>your product on your service, that they know who to

0:07:05.120 --> 0:07:06.599
<v Speaker 7>go to for that, right.

0:07:08.320 --> 0:07:11.080
<v Speaker 3>So like the Fortnite when they were trying to do

0:07:11.160 --> 0:07:14.640
<v Speaker 3>the dance moves, that's a copyright issue, right, yes, And

0:07:14.680 --> 0:07:17.360
<v Speaker 3>it's a copyright issue because I just want everybody to

0:07:17.440 --> 0:07:21.040
<v Speaker 3>understand because legal jargon can be a little confusing, yeah, right,

0:07:21.160 --> 0:07:23.880
<v Speaker 3>and even for like I'm in business and I'm kind

0:07:23.880 --> 0:07:27.040
<v Speaker 3>of confused by like copyrights and trademarks. So all right,

0:07:27.120 --> 0:07:31.800
<v Speaker 3>So well, the dance moves is a copyright because that's

0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:36.120
<v Speaker 3>something that it's like a physical thing that they made up, right.

0:07:35.960 --> 0:07:39.240
<v Speaker 7>So they like they created it and it's yeah, something

0:07:39.280 --> 0:07:40.600
<v Speaker 7>like physical that they did.

0:07:40.680 --> 0:07:42.680
<v Speaker 6>It's like a creative expression.

0:07:42.200 --> 0:07:45.880
<v Speaker 7>Like choreography, you know, dance moves, And there's going to

0:07:45.920 --> 0:07:47.760
<v Speaker 7>be an issue even with that when they go to

0:07:47.840 --> 0:07:51.480
<v Speaker 7>copyright those because from what I understand, all fonds of

0:07:51.680 --> 0:07:56.280
<v Speaker 7>very so he already got denied because they said it's

0:07:56.280 --> 0:07:59.080
<v Speaker 7>only three moves, like it's not enough to be choreography.

0:07:59.640 --> 0:08:01.680
<v Speaker 6>And I I think that's gonna that's gonna sort of.

0:08:01.720 --> 0:08:05.240
<v Speaker 7>Change the way the law is because like now everything

0:08:05.320 --> 0:08:08.320
<v Speaker 7>is media, everyone has a camera, everyone's like creating dances,

0:08:08.400 --> 0:08:10.200
<v Speaker 7>doing all this type of stuff that has to be

0:08:10.240 --> 0:08:11.200
<v Speaker 7>protected somehow.

0:08:11.520 --> 0:08:14.200
<v Speaker 5>So like when black Boy JB he does that move

0:08:14.280 --> 0:08:17.680
<v Speaker 5>and the kids just recreated that's not really choreography what

0:08:17.720 --> 0:08:18.200
<v Speaker 5>they're saying.

0:08:18.360 --> 0:08:20.120
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, so that that that's going to be an it'

0:08:20.240 --> 0:08:21.920
<v Speaker 7>I think that's an issue that's up for discussion.

0:08:22.640 --> 0:08:24.360
<v Speaker 3>And then all right, so then so then so then

0:08:24.400 --> 0:08:28.000
<v Speaker 3>the trademark, like the Jordan logo, that's a trademark, right.

0:08:28.400 --> 0:08:34.640
<v Speaker 7>So in that case they sued for copyright because the

0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:37.480
<v Speaker 7>person who took it was a photographer, So photography, it's

0:08:37.559 --> 0:08:39.560
<v Speaker 7>it's a picture that's going to be something that's going

0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:43.400
<v Speaker 7>to be copyrightable, so they're suing for the photo that

0:08:43.400 --> 0:08:48.040
<v Speaker 7>that what was it that Nike did the comparable comparable photo,

0:08:48.320 --> 0:08:50.760
<v Speaker 7>but also comes into question because now they use that

0:08:51.160 --> 0:08:54.320
<v Speaker 7>as a logo. Right, But he lost because they said

0:08:54.679 --> 0:08:56.680
<v Speaker 7>it's really not substantially.

0:08:56.960 --> 0:09:00.839
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, And it's interesting. I think they said that the tracksuit,

0:09:02.240 --> 0:09:04.600
<v Speaker 3>it was the backdrop in the picture. The track suit

0:09:04.960 --> 0:09:08.640
<v Speaker 3>and the photos are slightly different. And it's interesting too

0:09:08.679 --> 0:09:11.800
<v Speaker 3>because people were saying, well, you can't take credit for

0:09:11.840 --> 0:09:15.000
<v Speaker 3>an image, but you actually can though, because I remember

0:09:15.000 --> 0:09:17.679
<v Speaker 3>when Cameron had the album. I don't know if you're

0:09:17.679 --> 0:09:23.680
<v Speaker 3>a Cameron fan, but we're Cameron fans. Yeah, an album

0:09:23.720 --> 0:09:27.720
<v Speaker 3>called SDE a while ago, and the logo was the

0:09:27.800 --> 0:09:31.960
<v Speaker 3>NBA logo, which is Jerry West, but instead of like

0:09:32.040 --> 0:09:34.600
<v Speaker 3>the basketball, it actually had like a firearm in his hands.

0:09:34.640 --> 0:09:38.520
<v Speaker 3>So the NBA wasn't too happy about that, so they

0:09:38.600 --> 0:09:43.280
<v Speaker 3>shut it down and he couldn't use it. So it's

0:09:43.360 --> 0:09:46.360
<v Speaker 3>just interesting to see that. You know, somebody can come

0:09:46.440 --> 0:09:49.200
<v Speaker 3>up with an idea, but if they don't actually do

0:09:49.320 --> 0:09:52.360
<v Speaker 3>the right legal steps to somebody else can kind of

0:09:52.400 --> 0:09:54.480
<v Speaker 3>take the idea and now they own it.

0:09:54.480 --> 0:09:56.600
<v Speaker 6>Right, And that's what's been happening for years.

0:09:56.640 --> 0:09:59.560
<v Speaker 7>Like people who are ignorant to this type of protection

0:10:00.080 --> 0:10:02.880
<v Speaker 7>that it exists. They just create stuff and people who

0:10:02.920 --> 0:10:05.920
<v Speaker 7>know they take it. And you know, just like all

0:10:05.960 --> 0:10:09.640
<v Speaker 7>of the artists that came like you know in the eighties, nineties, sixties,

0:10:09.679 --> 0:10:12.319
<v Speaker 7>like they didn't know that they had an actual, you know,

0:10:12.600 --> 0:10:14.880
<v Speaker 7>asset that someone else is making money off.

0:10:15.080 --> 0:10:16.719
<v Speaker 3>And that's what we want to really because especially in

0:10:16.720 --> 0:10:19.000
<v Speaker 3>our community, like we're very creative, we're creative people, but

0:10:19.360 --> 0:10:21.960
<v Speaker 3>we don't always understand the business side of things and

0:10:21.960 --> 0:10:24.040
<v Speaker 3>how to monetize it in the legal steps to take.

0:10:24.120 --> 0:10:26.800
<v Speaker 3>So like you said, I mean, we'll make it and

0:10:26.800 --> 0:10:29.040
<v Speaker 3>create it and then somebody else will take it and

0:10:29.120 --> 0:10:32.480
<v Speaker 3>now they actually own it, right. So if somebody wants

0:10:32.520 --> 0:10:35.880
<v Speaker 3>to actually go about setting it up right, like what's

0:10:35.880 --> 0:10:40.640
<v Speaker 3>the steps of legally copywriting something or trademarking or if

0:10:40.640 --> 0:10:43.680
<v Speaker 3>they don't know the difference, should they do it via

0:10:43.720 --> 0:10:47.000
<v Speaker 3>a lawyer? Can they do it themselves online? What's your advice?

0:10:47.240 --> 0:10:49.520
<v Speaker 7>Okay, So, well, one, I have to give a disclaimer,

0:10:49.640 --> 0:10:52.160
<v Speaker 7>so for anybody who's listening, what I say is.

0:10:52.120 --> 0:10:55.079
<v Speaker 6>For information only. I'm not your lawyer unless.

0:10:54.800 --> 0:10:55.360
<v Speaker 3>You've hired me.

0:10:57.040 --> 0:10:59.920
<v Speaker 6>Let's have to say that. But so if they want to.

0:11:00.679 --> 0:11:02.839
<v Speaker 7>So the thing is, you should always hire a lawyer

0:11:02.880 --> 0:11:05.640
<v Speaker 7>because just with anything, like if there's somebody who's an

0:11:05.679 --> 0:11:07.640
<v Speaker 7>expert in the field, you want to kind of rely

0:11:07.720 --> 0:11:10.360
<v Speaker 7>on that person's expertise for nuances and things like that.

0:11:10.640 --> 0:11:13.160
<v Speaker 6>But that being said, you can do it yourself.

0:11:13.360 --> 0:11:17.080
<v Speaker 7>Like for copyrights, you could go on copyright dot Gov

0:11:17.480 --> 0:11:19.280
<v Speaker 7>and you kind of they make it really easy for you.

0:11:19.320 --> 0:11:21.480
<v Speaker 7>So they kind of lay out what are you trying

0:11:21.480 --> 0:11:24.800
<v Speaker 7>to copyright? Is it you know, music, is it a

0:11:24.880 --> 0:11:25.760
<v Speaker 7>book or something?

0:11:25.880 --> 0:11:26.200
<v Speaker 4>Is it?

0:11:26.320 --> 0:11:28.120
<v Speaker 7>So they give you the options and then you select

0:11:28.200 --> 0:11:31.320
<v Speaker 7>and they kind of walk you through the application process

0:11:31.360 --> 0:11:33.439
<v Speaker 7>and you could kind of click on stuff that will

0:11:33.480 --> 0:11:35.640
<v Speaker 7>give you like explanations like if you're confused as to

0:11:35.679 --> 0:11:36.400
<v Speaker 7>what they're asking.

0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:39.600
<v Speaker 6>So that's that with copyright.

0:11:39.640 --> 0:11:44.440
<v Speaker 7>With trademark it's a little bit more technical. So again

0:11:44.520 --> 0:11:46.200
<v Speaker 7>I do think you should get a lawyer, but their

0:11:46.240 --> 0:11:50.120
<v Speaker 7>website has tons of videos on how to do it.

0:11:50.120 --> 0:11:51.000
<v Speaker 6>It gets overwhelming.

0:11:51.040 --> 0:11:52.880
<v Speaker 7>But if you feel like, you know, I want to

0:11:52.920 --> 0:11:54.640
<v Speaker 7>protect my stuff and I just don't have the money

0:11:54.640 --> 0:11:56.960
<v Speaker 7>to invest in an attorney, they have videos that you

0:11:56.960 --> 0:11:59.839
<v Speaker 7>could look at, and it's also sort of like you

0:12:00.080 --> 0:12:03.320
<v Speaker 7>could you could be walked through the process, but the

0:12:03.400 --> 0:12:06.520
<v Speaker 7>search is a little more tricky because it's just so

0:12:06.640 --> 0:12:09.520
<v Speaker 7>much to go through and their website is not really

0:12:09.559 --> 0:12:12.640
<v Speaker 7>set up to give you like comprehensive results, like you

0:12:12.679 --> 0:12:16.280
<v Speaker 7>could type in Starbucks with two s two s's at

0:12:16.280 --> 0:12:18.160
<v Speaker 7>the end, you know, two s's at the end, and

0:12:18.400 --> 0:12:21.160
<v Speaker 7>nothing will come up, you know what I mean. So,

0:12:21.480 --> 0:12:23.720
<v Speaker 7>but if you put it you know exactly how it's spelled.

0:12:23.880 --> 0:12:26.160
<v Speaker 7>Of course tons of stuff will come up, but you know,

0:12:26.200 --> 0:12:28.120
<v Speaker 7>so that's how you can see how it's not that,

0:12:28.559 --> 0:12:32.679
<v Speaker 7>you know, it's not that easy for someone who is

0:12:32.720 --> 0:12:35.000
<v Speaker 7>just a lay person to do it, but it's possible,

0:12:35.160 --> 0:12:35.600
<v Speaker 7>you know what I mean.

0:12:35.679 --> 0:12:38.120
<v Speaker 5>Okay, speaking speaking of a trademarks, we actually behind the scenes,

0:12:38.120 --> 0:12:40.440
<v Speaker 5>we're talking about a trademark case that people may be

0:12:40.559 --> 0:12:43.000
<v Speaker 5>not familiar with, but it involves some like a high

0:12:43.080 --> 0:12:46.440
<v Speaker 5>profile person, Jay Z versus Iconics And for those who

0:12:46.440 --> 0:12:49.559
<v Speaker 5>don't know what who are Iconics brand is? They're actually

0:12:49.559 --> 0:12:51.640
<v Speaker 5>the company he sold Rockaway too. You want to touch

0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:52.440
<v Speaker 5>on that a little bit.

0:12:52.360 --> 0:12:57.000
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, sure, So Jay Z sold his Rockaway brand, his

0:12:57.040 --> 0:12:59.199
<v Speaker 7>clothing brand to Iconics, right, and they're like a big

0:12:59.240 --> 0:13:00.000
<v Speaker 7>clothing company.

0:12:59.840 --> 0:13:02.400
<v Speaker 6>They own a bunch of different you know, clothing lines.

0:13:02.760 --> 0:13:06.360
<v Speaker 7>And so they ended up suing jay Z because he

0:13:06.559 --> 0:13:09.440
<v Speaker 7>has rock Nation and they're like, well, you sold us this,

0:13:09.800 --> 0:13:12.080
<v Speaker 7>you know, it hadds some value to it, and now

0:13:12.160 --> 0:13:14.680
<v Speaker 7>you're still using it essentially like you're using rock Nation,

0:13:14.760 --> 0:13:17.199
<v Speaker 7>so and that that brand is already associated with you,

0:13:17.559 --> 0:13:19.400
<v Speaker 7>so it's diminishing our value.

0:13:19.760 --> 0:13:21.000
<v Speaker 6>And so they.

0:13:20.840 --> 0:13:23.320
<v Speaker 7>Had a lawsuit, you know, and they were going back

0:13:23.360 --> 0:13:24.520
<v Speaker 7>and forth and they actually.

0:13:24.240 --> 0:13:25.400
<v Speaker 4>Ended up in the arbitration.

0:13:26.440 --> 0:13:26.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:13:26.679 --> 0:13:30.240
<v Speaker 5>So the arbitration the arbitration process is like the really

0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:33.000
<v Speaker 5>crazy part of the story because during that process he

0:13:33.080 --> 0:13:36.480
<v Speaker 5>finds out that hey, there's no diversity in the arbitrators

0:13:37.080 --> 0:13:39.280
<v Speaker 5>and he like files a suit.

0:13:39.080 --> 0:13:42.960
<v Speaker 4>For that and he wins yes, and yeah so.

0:13:42.840 --> 0:13:46.280
<v Speaker 7>He so so okay, arbitration process is sort of like

0:13:46.320 --> 0:13:48.160
<v Speaker 7>an outside of court process.

0:13:47.840 --> 0:13:49.120
<v Speaker 3>I was going to say, because people that might not

0:13:49.160 --> 0:13:50.040
<v Speaker 3>know what arbitration is.

0:13:50.120 --> 0:13:54.439
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, so in most contracts, especially like when it comes

0:13:54.520 --> 0:13:56.880
<v Speaker 7>to business, there's going to be an arbitration clause. So

0:13:56.880 --> 0:13:58.520
<v Speaker 7>they don't want to have to go to court like

0:13:58.559 --> 0:14:01.320
<v Speaker 7>the normal avenue go to court and have a judge aside.

0:14:01.360 --> 0:14:03.520
<v Speaker 7>They just they rather go to like basically like a

0:14:03.559 --> 0:14:06.839
<v Speaker 7>boardroom and have someone who's an arbitrator sit and listen

0:14:06.880 --> 0:14:09.760
<v Speaker 7>to everybody who's like specializes in that area or whatever.

0:14:10.080 --> 0:14:12.400
<v Speaker 6>So the parties get to choose who that.

0:14:12.400 --> 0:14:14.720
<v Speaker 7>Arbitrator is going to be, right, they get a list,

0:14:14.760 --> 0:14:16.880
<v Speaker 7>they get to vet and agree on who that person

0:14:16.960 --> 0:14:19.200
<v Speaker 7>is going to be, or maybe a few people they'll choose.

0:14:19.520 --> 0:14:21.480
<v Speaker 7>And so what jay Z said is that, wait, there's

0:14:21.480 --> 0:14:24.400
<v Speaker 7>nobody of color on this list. There was like I

0:14:24.400 --> 0:14:27.080
<v Speaker 7>think there were like two people of a hundred, yeah,

0:14:27.240 --> 0:14:29.040
<v Speaker 7>something like that. And so he was like, no, I'm

0:14:29.040 --> 0:14:31.040
<v Speaker 7>not doing this. So he basically said I'm not going

0:14:31.120 --> 0:14:34.240
<v Speaker 7>to go forward with the arbitration, went to court, and

0:14:34.560 --> 0:14:37.080
<v Speaker 7>actually before the judge made of decision, the company was like,

0:14:37.320 --> 0:14:39.040
<v Speaker 7>you know what, We're going to make sure that we

0:14:39.160 --> 0:14:41.440
<v Speaker 7>do right and go out and get more you know,

0:14:41.480 --> 0:14:44.600
<v Speaker 7>African American and other people of color to be able to.

0:14:44.600 --> 0:14:47.760
<v Speaker 4>Make indirectly providing opportunities for people.

0:14:47.520 --> 0:14:50.520
<v Speaker 6>Of absolutely like he changed the game, like he does.

0:14:52.160 --> 0:14:57.200
<v Speaker 3>Every time we j to the rescue. Again, We've kept

0:14:57.280 --> 0:15:04.560
<v Speaker 3>our streak. I'm talking about everything. We've been consistent, mandatory. Yeah, yeah,

0:15:04.840 --> 0:15:06.480
<v Speaker 3>all right, Well one other thing before we go to

0:15:06.520 --> 0:15:08.920
<v Speaker 3>the next segment, can you just briefly talk about licensing

0:15:09.400 --> 0:15:09.720
<v Speaker 3>with that.

0:15:10.600 --> 0:15:16.160
<v Speaker 7>So when you own these different types of intellectual property, patent, copyright, trademarks,

0:15:16.720 --> 0:15:19.320
<v Speaker 7>the way that most people kind of really make money

0:15:19.360 --> 0:15:21.400
<v Speaker 7>from him is that they license them to other people

0:15:21.400 --> 0:15:24.040
<v Speaker 7>to use them. So as you build your brand, your

0:15:24.040 --> 0:15:26.960
<v Speaker 7>brand kind of has cloud, you know, like for instance,

0:15:27.160 --> 0:15:31.760
<v Speaker 7>who was it, Jeff Bezos just brought the Washington Washington Yeah,

0:15:31.800 --> 0:15:34.960
<v Speaker 7>so we know newspapers are dying, right, so you can

0:15:34.960 --> 0:15:37.640
<v Speaker 7>get news everywhere now, so but that name has a

0:15:37.640 --> 0:15:39.840
<v Speaker 7>certain amount of status. So like if something's in the

0:15:39.880 --> 0:15:42.920
<v Speaker 7>Washington Post, you believe it, right, So that's what people

0:15:43.240 --> 0:15:46.560
<v Speaker 7>you know, once their brand creates value or has a

0:15:46.640 --> 0:15:48.680
<v Speaker 7>value to it, you could license that to other people

0:15:48.720 --> 0:15:51.640
<v Speaker 7>because like say if they put out a story on

0:15:51.800 --> 0:15:54.240
<v Speaker 7>now on the Washington Post, say it was a license

0:15:54.320 --> 0:15:56.720
<v Speaker 7>and they licensed the name to him, he puts out

0:15:56.720 --> 0:15:58.520
<v Speaker 7>a story, people are gonna believe it. So that's why

0:15:58.520 --> 0:16:02.000
<v Speaker 7>people want a license established brands, And so you can

0:16:02.080 --> 0:16:05.360
<v Speaker 7>do it in terms of allowing them just to use

0:16:05.400 --> 0:16:07.920
<v Speaker 7>it for a certain purpose or in a certain area,

0:16:08.600 --> 0:16:12.640
<v Speaker 7>or to do you know, in connection with something specific,

0:16:12.960 --> 0:16:15.000
<v Speaker 7>So you could do it broad or narrow, and you

0:16:15.040 --> 0:16:17.080
<v Speaker 7>could get royalties from it, or you could just charge

0:16:17.120 --> 0:16:17.840
<v Speaker 7>your fee for it.

0:16:17.880 --> 0:16:19.440
<v Speaker 6>And that's going to be through like a contract.

0:16:19.800 --> 0:16:22.640
<v Speaker 3>Okay, all right, all right, well okay, so now you

0:16:22.720 --> 0:16:27.160
<v Speaker 3>have one oh one of intellectual property. So the next segment,

0:16:27.200 --> 0:16:30.200
<v Speaker 3>we are going to go into my favorite part of

0:16:30.240 --> 0:16:33.880
<v Speaker 3>the show, which is Storytime. All right, boys and girls,

0:16:34.200 --> 0:16:38.080
<v Speaker 3>So we are back for another edition of story Time.

0:16:38.160 --> 0:16:40.840
<v Speaker 3>So usually storytime is the last segment of the show

0:16:40.880 --> 0:16:43.560
<v Speaker 3>if you're a loyal follower. But the good thing about

0:16:43.600 --> 0:16:44.880
<v Speaker 3>having your own show is that you can do whatever

0:16:44.880 --> 0:16:49.800
<v Speaker 3>you want. So we decided to push it up. So

0:16:49.840 --> 0:16:54.560
<v Speaker 3>we're going to follow up with the explanation of trademarking,

0:16:54.640 --> 0:16:57.000
<v Speaker 3>and we're going to tell you, guys a story. So

0:16:57.040 --> 0:16:59.040
<v Speaker 3>we're going to go into storytime.

0:17:00.040 --> 0:17:03.160
<v Speaker 2>Here's a little story that must be told. Listen up,

0:17:03.200 --> 0:17:04.960
<v Speaker 2>gangsters and honeys, with your head done.

0:17:05.000 --> 0:17:07.639
<v Speaker 5>The best storytellers now right down must say pray down,

0:17:07.680 --> 0:17:08.679
<v Speaker 5>its gray down, its free down.

0:17:08.800 --> 0:17:12.520
<v Speaker 3>All right. So this is a very interesting story, right,

0:17:12.840 --> 0:17:18.360
<v Speaker 3>So it involves the Beatles in Apple right. Two things

0:17:18.400 --> 0:17:21.400
<v Speaker 3>you may know a thirty year a thirty year court

0:17:21.480 --> 0:17:27.280
<v Speaker 3>case between the Beatles in Apple right. Crazy? So the

0:17:27.400 --> 0:17:33.960
<v Speaker 3>Beatles right and seventies, mid seventies, nineteen seventy eight, Well,

0:17:34.080 --> 0:17:39.280
<v Speaker 3>I think before that they started a company called Apple Corp. Right.

0:17:39.720 --> 0:17:42.480
<v Speaker 3>Apple Corp. Was a holding company. It had a couple

0:17:42.560 --> 0:17:46.440
<v Speaker 3>different uh uses, but the main thing it was like

0:17:46.480 --> 0:17:49.119
<v Speaker 3>there in house record label. Right. They I don't know

0:17:49.160 --> 0:17:50.600
<v Speaker 3>why they decided to name Apple, but that was the

0:17:50.720 --> 0:17:51.360
<v Speaker 3>named Apple Corp.

0:17:51.640 --> 0:17:52.199
<v Speaker 6>That's interesting.

0:17:53.400 --> 0:17:57.320
<v Speaker 3>So in nineteen seventy seven, George Harrison you know what

0:17:57.359 --> 0:18:00.760
<v Speaker 3>George Harrison is the Beatles, of course, well nobody really

0:18:00.800 --> 0:18:05.600
<v Speaker 3>knows him. He's the Beatle that you never heard of, right,

0:18:05.840 --> 0:18:09.200
<v Speaker 3>most people never heard of him. So he hits ironic

0:18:09.200 --> 0:18:11.359
<v Speaker 3>because nobody's heard of him, and he heard of a

0:18:11.440 --> 0:18:13.680
<v Speaker 3>company that nobody's heard of that's just started out in

0:18:13.760 --> 0:18:17.879
<v Speaker 3>nineteen seventy seven around that time, called Apple Inc. So

0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:20.879
<v Speaker 3>he says, okay, this is pretty interesting. Is a company

0:18:20.960 --> 0:18:23.879
<v Speaker 3>called Apple? Right, So he goes to Apple Corp. The

0:18:23.960 --> 0:18:27.160
<v Speaker 3>Beatles company, and he tells them about a company called

0:18:27.240 --> 0:18:33.800
<v Speaker 3>Apple Inc. Right, So the Beatles' Apple Corp. Suits Apple Inc.

0:18:34.440 --> 0:18:38.440
<v Speaker 3>Because they're using the trademark name Apple. They already trademarked

0:18:38.440 --> 0:18:42.040
<v Speaker 3>the name Apple can't use it. So in nineteen eighty

0:18:42.080 --> 0:18:46.080
<v Speaker 3>one they settled a lawsuit for eighty thousand dollars. Right.

0:18:46.200 --> 0:18:48.800
<v Speaker 3>An interesting thing is that part of the settlement is

0:18:48.920 --> 0:18:53.840
<v Speaker 3>that Apple Corp. The Beatles Company, agreed to never go

0:18:54.000 --> 0:18:59.159
<v Speaker 3>into the computer business. Apple Inc. Steve Jobs Company agreed

0:18:59.240 --> 0:19:00.679
<v Speaker 3>to never go into the music business.

0:19:00.840 --> 0:19:03.159
<v Speaker 4>We're gonna to stay in your lane. Close in your

0:19:03.240 --> 0:19:04.199
<v Speaker 4>lane is all.

0:19:04.680 --> 0:19:06.880
<v Speaker 3>They could both use Apple, but they have to stay

0:19:06.880 --> 0:19:10.680
<v Speaker 3>in there in your lane. Okay. So it's going pretty

0:19:10.680 --> 0:19:13.800
<v Speaker 3>good for a couple of years, and then nineteen eighty

0:19:13.920 --> 0:19:20.800
<v Speaker 3>six Apple comes out with musical instrument Digital Interface. Right, Yes,

0:19:21.440 --> 0:19:21.920
<v Speaker 3>I was good.

0:19:22.520 --> 0:19:23.120
<v Speaker 4>I was good.

0:19:23.440 --> 0:19:25.080
<v Speaker 3>So that you want to talk about that?

0:19:25.359 --> 0:19:28.920
<v Speaker 5>Now I can briefly touch on it those or not

0:19:29.040 --> 0:19:31.800
<v Speaker 5>in So that's just a sound chip in the computer.

0:19:31.920 --> 0:19:34.520
<v Speaker 5>So this is before you gotta think with eighties now,

0:19:34.680 --> 0:19:37.760
<v Speaker 5>so like this is like computers. They're not even in color.

0:19:37.760 --> 0:19:40.080
<v Speaker 5>It's just like the green typing. So he's putting a

0:19:40.160 --> 0:19:42.640
<v Speaker 5>sound chip in the computer. They're looking at it like wait,

0:19:42.960 --> 0:19:44.920
<v Speaker 5>sound that could be music.

0:19:44.960 --> 0:19:47.119
<v Speaker 3>It could be music because the music it's about to

0:19:47.119 --> 0:19:48.439
<v Speaker 3>say something I was going to say.

0:19:48.440 --> 0:19:50.879
<v Speaker 7>I think it also allowed them to the computers to

0:19:51.440 --> 0:19:52.800
<v Speaker 7>communicate with music land.

0:19:52.920 --> 0:19:55.840
<v Speaker 3>Yes, yes, yes, yes it did, so it allowed it.

0:19:56.080 --> 0:19:58.440
<v Speaker 3>It's kind of like the beginning stages of putting music

0:19:58.560 --> 0:20:02.280
<v Speaker 3>on a computer. So say, hey, you're not so fast.

0:20:02.320 --> 0:20:05.920
<v Speaker 3>You you promise, you promised not to do. Oh, you

0:20:06.080 --> 0:20:08.600
<v Speaker 3>got your problems. So now they suit them again, right,

0:20:09.320 --> 0:20:11.440
<v Speaker 3>nineteen eighty six, they suit them. So in nineteen ninety

0:20:11.520 --> 0:20:16.680
<v Speaker 3>one they settled for twenty six million dollars. Right, but

0:20:18.600 --> 0:20:20.400
<v Speaker 3>they did something that was very petty at the time,

0:20:20.520 --> 0:20:27.440
<v Speaker 3>So they the nineteen ninety one Macintosh alert. The name

0:20:27.600 --> 0:20:32.800
<v Speaker 3>is Sumo and it's pronounced so sue me. So it's

0:20:32.880 --> 0:20:35.919
<v Speaker 3>like a kind of like you know, and it predicts

0:20:35.960 --> 0:20:37.520
<v Speaker 3>what's going to happen in the future, right, like saying

0:20:37.560 --> 0:20:38.120
<v Speaker 3>like soon.

0:20:38.600 --> 0:20:41.920
<v Speaker 5>So that was part of the sampling of sound on

0:20:42.040 --> 0:20:44.440
<v Speaker 5>an operating system. So like they had a new operating system.

0:20:44.800 --> 0:20:48.320
<v Speaker 5>Now you can sample sound again that sounds like music.

0:20:49.040 --> 0:20:50.280
<v Speaker 5>We're gonna have to suit yeah.

0:20:50.480 --> 0:20:54.080
<v Speaker 3>No, So then this is where the big cakes comes in, right.

0:20:54.359 --> 0:20:57.679
<v Speaker 3>Two thousand and three, the launch of Itol. So they

0:20:57.840 --> 0:20:59.639
<v Speaker 3>just said, okay, we're not even gonna play around anymore.

0:20:59.640 --> 0:21:03.520
<v Speaker 3>We're going in the music business right soon. Too much

0:21:03.560 --> 0:21:07.320
<v Speaker 3>money out here not to be get We're not going

0:21:07.359 --> 0:21:09.840
<v Speaker 3>to be stopped by the Beatles, right, so they go

0:21:09.960 --> 0:21:14.080
<v Speaker 3>into full fledged with iTunes. So of course Apple Corp.

0:21:14.160 --> 0:21:15.760
<v Speaker 3>The Beetle company, right.

0:21:15.800 --> 0:21:17.879
<v Speaker 4>But they suit them this time because of the logo.

0:21:18.160 --> 0:21:21.159
<v Speaker 5>So like, their logo is an actual green apple, and

0:21:21.280 --> 0:21:24.119
<v Speaker 5>the iTunes logo was an Apple that had like a

0:21:24.160 --> 0:21:25.359
<v Speaker 5>little piece bitten out of it.

0:21:25.920 --> 0:21:27.760
<v Speaker 4>So it was like, wait, that looks like our.

0:21:27.680 --> 0:21:30.360
<v Speaker 3>Logo partially the logo but also the music is well

0:21:30.480 --> 0:21:35.600
<v Speaker 3>yeah yeah. So but that case lasted to two thousand

0:21:35.640 --> 0:21:39.399
<v Speaker 3>and seven and Apple actually won that case, right, So

0:21:39.600 --> 0:21:43.639
<v Speaker 3>now Apple Inc. Owns the trademarks to Apple, right, but

0:21:43.760 --> 0:21:46.720
<v Speaker 3>they licensed out a certain you know, they licensed out

0:21:47.160 --> 0:21:51.960
<v Speaker 3>trademarks back to Apple Corp. Nobody really knows the terms

0:21:52.000 --> 0:21:54.359
<v Speaker 3>of the deal, but it's said that they settled for

0:21:54.480 --> 0:21:58.200
<v Speaker 3>five hundred million dollars. So Apple Ink paid Apple Corp.

0:21:58.520 --> 0:22:02.000
<v Speaker 3>Five hundred million dollars and they finally were done with

0:22:02.080 --> 0:22:05.639
<v Speaker 3>it after thirty years. And it's ironic because now the

0:22:05.800 --> 0:22:09.560
<v Speaker 3>Beatles when so when Steve Jobs, he used he was

0:22:09.560 --> 0:22:12.520
<v Speaker 3>a big Beatles fan, right, huge, and he was disappointed

0:22:12.560 --> 0:22:15.159
<v Speaker 3>that they couldn't get the Beatles on iTunes because of

0:22:15.320 --> 0:22:18.680
<v Speaker 3>this thirty year case. Right. So now when I think

0:22:18.720 --> 0:22:21.680
<v Speaker 3>it was his two thousand and seven speech.

0:22:21.520 --> 0:22:24.640
<v Speaker 5>It's Keno address in two thousand and seven. He intros

0:22:24.680 --> 0:22:27.040
<v Speaker 5>it by coming into the Beatles music. So the crowd

0:22:27.200 --> 0:22:29.240
<v Speaker 5>is like, oh wait, we're about to get Beatles music.

0:22:29.320 --> 0:22:30.200
<v Speaker 3>He has Paul McCartney.

0:22:30.600 --> 0:22:34.320
<v Speaker 5>February two thousand and seven. They settle and they released

0:22:34.320 --> 0:22:37.040
<v Speaker 5>Beatles Music, but as a solo artist. So Joege Harrison's

0:22:37.119 --> 0:22:40.920
<v Speaker 5>solo music. John Lennon Paul McCartney. I don't think Ringo

0:22:40.920 --> 0:22:42.800
<v Speaker 5>had it out. Did Ringle have al I don't know.

0:22:42.920 --> 0:22:43.560
<v Speaker 4>He might, I don't know.

0:22:43.920 --> 0:22:48.800
<v Speaker 5>So their solo catalogs were released, and then three years later,

0:22:48.920 --> 0:22:52.159
<v Speaker 5>in twenty and ten, I believe November twenty ten, the

0:22:52.240 --> 0:22:55.240
<v Speaker 5>Beatles catalog comes to iTunes, which is like a big

0:22:55.400 --> 0:22:58.159
<v Speaker 5>moment because that catalog is ridiculous.

0:22:58.160 --> 0:23:04.000
<v Speaker 3>You know, Michael Jackson owned the Beatles logev. It's another conversation,

0:23:04.400 --> 0:23:07.159
<v Speaker 3>So why are we telling your story? Because it's interested

0:23:07.160 --> 0:23:12.040
<v Speaker 3>in a and also it is highlights the power of trademarks. Right,

0:23:12.280 --> 0:23:15.560
<v Speaker 3>So the Beatles made almost six hundred million dollars they

0:23:15.640 --> 0:23:18.000
<v Speaker 3>made between the three cases, they made five hundred and

0:23:18.040 --> 0:23:22.000
<v Speaker 3>twenty nine million, right, kind of by accident because they

0:23:22.160 --> 0:23:24.520
<v Speaker 3>just randomly picked the name Apple, I'm pretty sure, right,

0:23:25.160 --> 0:23:28.800
<v Speaker 3>And they didn't really have any intentions of Apple Corp.

0:23:28.880 --> 0:23:31.200
<v Speaker 3>To like be a multi billion dollar company. They was

0:23:31.240 --> 0:23:32.280
<v Speaker 3>like the in house thing, right.

0:23:32.400 --> 0:23:34.639
<v Speaker 4>I'm not sure what music came out on Apple Records.

0:23:34.840 --> 0:23:36.000
<v Speaker 3>I don't think any music came out.

0:23:36.400 --> 0:23:39.520
<v Speaker 7>I think they just ended up owning all the Beatles' music,

0:23:39.960 --> 0:23:42.600
<v Speaker 7>And like you said, they had other businesses underneath their

0:23:42.720 --> 0:23:45.040
<v Speaker 7>like tax shelter exactly.

0:23:45.480 --> 0:23:48.880
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, So just from having the luck of the draw

0:23:49.080 --> 0:23:52.040
<v Speaker 3>and picking and picking a good name. But more importantly

0:23:52.080 --> 0:23:54.800
<v Speaker 3>than picking a good name, they trademarked the name, right,

0:23:54.840 --> 0:23:57.000
<v Speaker 3>because they could have picked the name and then trade, like,

0:23:57.080 --> 0:23:59.479
<v Speaker 3>so how many businesses and companies and we're going back

0:23:59.520 --> 0:24:03.240
<v Speaker 3>to the fortite. We have good ideas, but that one

0:24:03.320 --> 0:24:08.320
<v Speaker 3>step changes the dynamic five hundred million dollars, right, So

0:24:08.400 --> 0:24:10.920
<v Speaker 3>people say a lot of times it's like, well it's

0:24:10.960 --> 0:24:13.960
<v Speaker 3>expensive to trademark, or I don't have the money. Well,

0:24:14.920 --> 0:24:17.880
<v Speaker 3>you either spend five hundred dollars to trademark or five

0:24:17.960 --> 0:24:20.240
<v Speaker 3>hundred million recorder could do that you could have gotten

0:24:20.280 --> 0:24:21.320
<v Speaker 3>if you did trademarket, right.

0:24:21.320 --> 0:24:23.600
<v Speaker 5>I think like that's what we saw fifty did that.

0:24:24.200 --> 0:24:26.880
<v Speaker 5>When he started to get the Strap campaign, it was like, wait,

0:24:28.880 --> 0:24:31.080
<v Speaker 5>this episode is brought to you by P and C Bank.

0:24:31.480 --> 0:24:34.200
<v Speaker 5>A lot of people think podcasts about work are boring,

0:24:34.480 --> 0:24:38.280
<v Speaker 5>and sure they definitely can be, but understanding a professionals

0:24:38.400 --> 0:24:41.600
<v Speaker 5>routine shows us how they achieve their success little by little,

0:24:42.040 --> 0:24:45.640
<v Speaker 5>day after day. It's like banking with P and C Bank.

0:24:46.160 --> 0:24:48.920
<v Speaker 5>It might seem boring to safe plan and make calculated

0:24:48.960 --> 0:24:52.040
<v Speaker 5>decisions with your bank, but keeping your money boring is

0:24:52.119 --> 0:24:55.359

<v Speaker 4>is mine.

<v Speaker 6>Yeah, somebody want to use it.

0:26:25.680 --> 0:26:29.879
<v Speaker 3>Going back to Cameron, he's notorious for that. He trademarks everything.

0:26:30.040 --> 0:26:31.080
<v Speaker 3>Remember when him and Jim.

0:26:31.000 --> 0:26:34.000
<v Speaker 4>Jones had to you know what that that that's a

0:26:34.080 --> 0:26:34.639
<v Speaker 4>sad story.

0:26:35.080 --> 0:26:36.800
<v Speaker 3>Well they made it, they rectified it.

0:26:37.040 --> 0:26:39.080
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it was over Burgag.

0:26:39.320 --> 0:26:43.560
<v Speaker 3>He trademark Bergen just in case, Yes, just in case.

0:26:43.760 --> 0:26:45.639
<v Speaker 3>So if anybody's a Diplomat fan, you know.

0:26:45.680 --> 0:26:48.080
<v Speaker 4>What, anybody's from the early two thousands, so it was

0:26:48.119 --> 0:26:48.640
<v Speaker 4>like something.

0:26:48.480 --> 0:26:50.600
<v Speaker 3>That they were just saying. It was like it wasn't

0:26:50.680 --> 0:26:54.119
<v Speaker 3>like an official thing because they would Dipset diplomat. Then

0:26:54.160 --> 0:26:56.080
<v Speaker 3>the burg game was like just something that they just

0:26:56.160 --> 0:26:59.480
<v Speaker 3>came up with. Right. But then Jim Jones actually had

0:26:59.560 --> 0:27:03.720
<v Speaker 3>a crew, like a offset of Dipset that he was

0:27:03.760 --> 0:27:06.000
<v Speaker 3>calling burg Gang, right. I think he had like bird

0:27:06.040 --> 0:27:09.480
<v Speaker 3>Gang records and oh he's going full Fletchers and Cameron

0:27:09.600 --> 0:27:11.439
<v Speaker 3>without actually notifying him.

0:27:11.640 --> 0:27:12.320
<v Speaker 4>Catches windows.

0:27:12.320 --> 0:27:17.440
<v Speaker 3>It trademarks the name. So Jesus, he's no longer allowed

0:27:17.480 --> 0:27:19.280
<v Speaker 3>to use burg Gang unless he pays Cameron.

0:27:19.760 --> 0:27:24.440
<v Speaker 5>That's what friends are for, exactly when something of It's

0:27:24.440 --> 0:27:26.760
<v Speaker 5>also rumored that he trademarked jelly fan.

0:27:27.400 --> 0:27:29.720
<v Speaker 4>That's yeah, yeah, yeah recently recently.

0:27:29.440 --> 0:27:30.520
<v Speaker 3>I'm not sure if that's true or not.

0:27:30.640 --> 0:27:33.800
<v Speaker 4>Shout the jelly fan. He just actually transferred from Minnesota

0:27:33.800 --> 0:27:36.000
<v Speaker 4>when he's going I don't know yet. He just left.

0:27:36.040 --> 0:27:38.520
<v Speaker 4>He did two years at Minnesota and now he's.

0:27:38.400 --> 0:27:41.240
<v Speaker 3>Transferring Isaiah Washington. If anybody is not a basketball fan

0:27:41.560 --> 0:27:44.080
<v Speaker 3>New York City street ball legend, not even a street

0:27:44.119 --> 0:27:48.000
<v Speaker 3>ball legend, no, not just a legend. Saint Raymond's basketball

0:27:48.240 --> 0:27:55.520
<v Speaker 3>basketball legend who he he he had a crew called Jellyfan, huge.

0:27:55.600 --> 0:27:59.560
<v Speaker 4>Trademark by his the move man that layup that opening

0:28:00.080 --> 0:28:00.879
<v Speaker 4>finger rolled layup.

0:28:01.160 --> 0:28:04.119
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well people might not be basketball fans, but I

0:28:04.240 --> 0:28:06.320
<v Speaker 3>heard that Kim On because the interesting thing about that,

0:28:06.359 --> 0:28:07.720
<v Speaker 3>So the kid was in high school, right, and he

0:28:07.840 --> 0:28:10.800
<v Speaker 3>created a huge buzz for himself in high school, like

0:28:10.920 --> 0:28:12.760
<v Speaker 3>all throughout the city. Then it went national. Now what

0:28:12.840 --> 0:28:14.600
<v Speaker 3>social media went all over the world where you got

0:28:14.720 --> 0:28:18.159
<v Speaker 3>kids saying jelly famine. It's like a finger roll and

0:28:18.920 --> 0:28:22.760
<v Speaker 3>it's like it just went viral. So then Nike started

0:28:22.840 --> 0:28:26.359
<v Speaker 3>printing up shirts with the jelly Fan right, and of

0:28:26.440 --> 0:28:28.720
<v Speaker 3>course he's not getting paid for he's in high school.

0:28:28.960 --> 0:28:32.159
<v Speaker 5>I think Nike might be a sponsor for Saint Raymonds,

0:28:32.240 --> 0:28:33.760
<v Speaker 5>so like they felt like we had a connection.

0:28:33.800 --> 0:28:34.679
<v Speaker 4>He plays with Saint Raymonds.

0:28:34.800 --> 0:28:37.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but he came up with the idea. So it's

0:28:37.920 --> 0:28:40.720
<v Speaker 3>all going back to Apple, right, whereas we can relate

0:28:40.800 --> 0:28:44.200
<v Speaker 3>this on small level, like that's a perfect example jelly fan. Right.

0:28:44.760 --> 0:28:46.560
<v Speaker 3>I don't know the rules if he could actually trademarket

0:28:46.720 --> 0:28:48.880
<v Speaker 3>not since he's in high school and his rules against

0:28:48.960 --> 0:28:52.240
<v Speaker 3>the basketball players. But long story short, Nike did that

0:28:52.360 --> 0:28:55.600
<v Speaker 3>and they made money off of it, right, so if.

0:28:55.480 --> 0:28:57.560
<v Speaker 6>He didn't protect it, then he can't really do that

0:28:57.680 --> 0:28:58.160
<v Speaker 6>until police.

0:28:58.160 --> 0:28:59.080
<v Speaker 3>Again, now it's too late.

0:28:59.840 --> 0:29:02.360
<v Speaker 7>Well if he can, if they didn't protect it, he

0:29:02.400 --> 0:29:04.920
<v Speaker 7>could still protect it and then they would still have

0:29:05.040 --> 0:29:07.200
<v Speaker 7>to pay him for using it if they're still continuing

0:29:07.240 --> 0:29:10.080
<v Speaker 7>to make money off of it. Right, But if you

0:29:10.160 --> 0:29:12.200
<v Speaker 7>don't protect it, then you have no way of really

0:29:12.920 --> 0:29:14.520
<v Speaker 7>so what what registration does.

0:29:14.680 --> 0:29:17.880
<v Speaker 6>It allows you to basically sue and be able to recover.

0:29:18.120 --> 0:29:20.360
<v Speaker 7>So like with the Fortnite case, how they had to

0:29:20.440 --> 0:29:22.720
<v Speaker 7>pull out of the case because they didn't copyright anything,

0:29:23.240 --> 0:29:26.120
<v Speaker 7>and so it's like, Okay, the government's like or the

0:29:26.520 --> 0:29:28.840
<v Speaker 7>federal court is like, well, if you didn't copyright it,

0:29:28.880 --> 0:29:30.880
<v Speaker 7>then you can't police against it, so you need to

0:29:31.000 --> 0:29:33.560
<v Speaker 7>go do that, and so they pulled out. But if

0:29:33.560 --> 0:29:35.959
<v Speaker 7>they do, if they are successful with their copyright, then

0:29:36.000 --> 0:29:36.800
<v Speaker 7>they will be able.

0:29:36.680 --> 0:29:40.959
<v Speaker 5>To sue them for you see, like celebrities are doing

0:29:41.000 --> 0:29:42.800
<v Speaker 5>that like when they have children. Now it's like the

0:29:42.880 --> 0:29:44.840
<v Speaker 5>person thing they do is I'm copyrighting that name, I think.

0:29:46.480 --> 0:29:48.560
<v Speaker 5>But they lost that because there was an event planning

0:29:48.640 --> 0:29:49.760
<v Speaker 5>company called Blue Ivy.

0:29:50.560 --> 0:29:51.320
<v Speaker 6>They're still fight it.

0:29:51.400 --> 0:29:54.240
<v Speaker 7>Though they're still fighting doesn't. There's an event planner. She

0:29:54.560 --> 0:29:57.120
<v Speaker 7>she has a company named Blue Ivy, and so you know,

0:29:57.240 --> 0:29:58.200
<v Speaker 7>Beyonce's a beast.

0:29:58.080 --> 0:29:58.440
<v Speaker 5>With her.

0:30:01.160 --> 0:30:04.480
<v Speaker 7>She has she has her own company that just has

0:30:04.520 --> 0:30:06.080
<v Speaker 7>her trademarks and that's the best way to do it.

0:30:07.720 --> 0:30:11.800
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well, there you have it, the power of trademarks.

0:30:11.880 --> 0:30:14.880
<v Speaker 3>You have to understand the law of people is one thing.

0:30:14.960 --> 0:30:16.640
<v Speaker 3>To play the game is another thing. To play the

0:30:16.720 --> 0:30:19.720
<v Speaker 3>game smart and efficiently. You don't have to be the

0:30:19.760 --> 0:30:23.120
<v Speaker 3>smartest player to win, but you have to know who

0:30:23.240 --> 0:30:26.600
<v Speaker 3>to work with, who to contact, and you have to

0:30:26.760 --> 0:30:29.840
<v Speaker 3>know opportunities when you see it. And I'm sure these

0:30:29.880 --> 0:30:32.200
<v Speaker 3>guys that made these dances up before they never knew.

0:30:32.240 --> 0:30:34.600
<v Speaker 3>They just doing their neighbors, especially Culton things. I don't know,

0:30:34.680 --> 0:30:40.480
<v Speaker 3>that's shame on him, but the Millie Rocket, this is

0:30:40.600 --> 0:30:42.520
<v Speaker 3>they're just doing it in their community, like they're not

0:30:42.600 --> 0:30:44.520
<v Speaker 3>thinking this is going to go viral to the world.

0:30:45.200 --> 0:30:52.040
<v Speaker 3>But you never know you have so yeah, well we'll see.

0:30:54.160 --> 0:30:54.480
<v Speaker 4>All right.

0:30:54.560 --> 0:30:57.160
<v Speaker 5>So for our final segment, we're going to talk about

0:30:57.200 --> 0:30:59.880
<v Speaker 5>something that we don't have to look too fartify it

0:31:00.800 --> 0:31:05.200
<v Speaker 5>and that is a life insurance. We recently posted that

0:31:05.400 --> 0:31:08.920
<v Speaker 5>series had canceled ninety thousand life insurance policies for its employees,

0:31:09.520 --> 0:31:11.840
<v Speaker 5>and it begs the question like, should people be going

0:31:11.920 --> 0:31:16.320
<v Speaker 5>through their jobs to gain life insurance? Over the past

0:31:16.840 --> 0:31:20.800
<v Speaker 5>I guess twenty to thirty years, America has kind of switched.

0:31:21.200 --> 0:31:23.840
<v Speaker 5>One hundred and eight million people have gone through the

0:31:23.920 --> 0:31:26.800
<v Speaker 5>group route, while one hundred and two million people have

0:31:26.960 --> 0:31:31.320
<v Speaker 5>gone through the private method of life insurance, which is like.

0:31:31.400 --> 0:31:35.640
<v Speaker 4>The first time that that's happened in history. So we

0:31:35.760 --> 0:31:39.560
<v Speaker 4>have our own expert and two thousand give me if

0:31:39.600 --> 0:31:40.120
<v Speaker 4>I'm wrong with the.

0:31:40.160 --> 0:31:42.800
<v Speaker 3>Year two thousand and six, I think two thousand and seven.

0:31:42.880 --> 0:31:46.480
<v Speaker 5>Two thousand and seven, I sat down with a financial

0:31:46.560 --> 0:31:49.960
<v Speaker 5>planner who was starting in the business. He needed a client,

0:31:50.520 --> 0:31:54.840
<v Speaker 5>and he looked across and he said, Detroit, you gotta

0:31:54.880 --> 0:31:59.320
<v Speaker 5>get life insurance now. At twenty five, I'm thinking, come on, man,

0:31:59.600 --> 0:32:01.880
<v Speaker 5>why do I life insurance? And then we had a

0:32:01.920 --> 0:32:04.800
<v Speaker 5>deeper conversation. I'm like, oh, with shot, it's pretty serious

0:32:04.840 --> 0:32:05.160
<v Speaker 5>about this.

0:32:05.840 --> 0:32:08.960
<v Speaker 4>So we went through the process and I got life insurance.

0:32:09.000 --> 0:32:11.160
<v Speaker 5>And maybe you could talk to people why it's so

0:32:11.400 --> 0:32:14.920
<v Speaker 5>valuable and so that's really important and how we've seen

0:32:14.960 --> 0:32:18.400
<v Speaker 5>some cases where people didn't have life insurance and the

0:32:18.560 --> 0:32:21.560
<v Speaker 5>outcome of what it left their family with, right, because

0:32:21.560 --> 0:32:23.680
<v Speaker 5>it's not really for the people who dies, for the

0:32:23.760 --> 0:32:25.400
<v Speaker 5>people who remain living, right.

0:32:26.000 --> 0:32:27.720
<v Speaker 4>So yeah, and you want to talk about that, yeah

0:32:27.760 --> 0:32:28.080
<v Speaker 4>for sure.

0:32:28.720 --> 0:32:33.400
<v Speaker 3>So yes, So anyway, that's not familiar. I'm a financial advisor.

0:32:33.440 --> 0:32:36.000
<v Speaker 3>That's what I do for a living, right. So I started,

0:32:36.280 --> 0:32:40.520
<v Speaker 3>you know, eleven years ago around that timeframe, and yes,

0:32:41.120 --> 0:32:45.600
<v Speaker 3>my first week in the business, my first client was

0:32:45.680 --> 0:32:51.200
<v Speaker 3>Troy Truly. Yes, I sold him a life insurance policy.

0:32:51.840 --> 0:32:55.160
<v Speaker 3>That's my and then eleven years later, still got it.

0:32:55.240 --> 0:32:57.640
<v Speaker 3>He's still a client of mine. So yeah, So I do.

0:32:57.920 --> 0:32:59.640
<v Speaker 3>I do a few different things, you know. I help

0:32:59.640 --> 0:33:03.080
<v Speaker 3>people in less money retirement, and life insurance is one

0:33:03.120 --> 0:33:05.280
<v Speaker 3>of the things that I do as well. So before

0:33:05.320 --> 0:33:09.000
<v Speaker 3>I start, I'm not taking a side on any policy.

0:33:09.880 --> 0:33:14.960
<v Speaker 3>Life insurance is very debatable people have They're very passionate

0:33:15.160 --> 0:33:19.360
<v Speaker 3>about this. I've noticed online you have very strong opinions.

0:33:19.880 --> 0:33:22.160
<v Speaker 3>So I'm not here to tell you which is the

0:33:22.240 --> 0:33:25.680
<v Speaker 3>best policy, which you should do, just provide information. You

0:33:25.760 --> 0:33:29.040
<v Speaker 3>can make your own decisions for yourself, right. But it

0:33:29.160 --> 0:33:32.880
<v Speaker 3>is interesting that SEA has canceled ninety thousand policies for

0:33:33.040 --> 0:33:38.000
<v Speaker 3>retirees because it does highlight something that is important. Is

0:33:38.520 --> 0:33:41.320
<v Speaker 3>you know, a lot of times people have insurance at

0:33:41.360 --> 0:33:44.480
<v Speaker 3>their job and they think that that's sufficient. Right. Like

0:33:44.600 --> 0:33:47.479
<v Speaker 3>most things when it comes to finance, people aren't properly

0:33:47.640 --> 0:33:49.920
<v Speaker 3>educated a lot of times, right, so they don't really

0:33:49.960 --> 0:33:53.880
<v Speaker 3>fully understand life insurance or even why it's important how

0:33:53.960 --> 0:33:56.440
<v Speaker 3>to get it, you know, they don't really know, so

0:33:56.680 --> 0:33:58.240
<v Speaker 3>they just say, Okay, I have it at my job,

0:33:58.400 --> 0:33:59.960
<v Speaker 3>and whatever it is what it is.

0:34:00.280 --> 0:34:00.360
<v Speaker 2>Right.

0:34:01.000 --> 0:34:04.840
<v Speaker 3>So now is to say, okay, which is better the

0:34:04.920 --> 0:34:06.960
<v Speaker 3>insurance at your job or the insurance that you can

0:34:07.040 --> 0:34:12.880
<v Speaker 3>get privately through institution or company. Right, I always recommend both, right,

0:34:12.960 --> 0:34:16.000
<v Speaker 3>Because the insurance at your job. The good thing about

0:34:16.080 --> 0:34:19.040
<v Speaker 3>that is that it's usually very low as far as

0:34:19.120 --> 0:34:22.879
<v Speaker 3>premiums are concerned, or sometimes it's even free, so it's

0:34:22.960 --> 0:34:26.560
<v Speaker 3>not really costing you anything. So it's always good to have, right.

0:34:26.920 --> 0:34:29.799
<v Speaker 3>But the problem with having it as your only type

0:34:29.840 --> 0:34:33.160
<v Speaker 3>of insurance is what we just saw, right, is that

0:34:33.239 --> 0:34:35.200
<v Speaker 3>a lot of times it's not portable, meaning that you

0:34:35.239 --> 0:34:38.440
<v Speaker 3>can't take it with you when you retire, or if

0:34:38.520 --> 0:34:40.440
<v Speaker 3>you can take it with you, then the premium may

0:34:40.880 --> 0:34:43.200
<v Speaker 3>go up because now you're no longer part of that group.

0:34:43.280 --> 0:34:45.080
<v Speaker 3>It's like health insurance, right, Like if you leave your

0:34:45.200 --> 0:34:47.920
<v Speaker 3>job now, you can still keep your health insurance for

0:34:47.920 --> 0:34:50.680
<v Speaker 3>a certain amount of time, but you're on what's called cobra, right,

0:34:50.800 --> 0:34:53.200
<v Speaker 3>So now your health insurance premiums go up. So sometimes

0:34:53.320 --> 0:34:54.839
<v Speaker 3>life insurance is the same, or even if the life

0:34:54.840 --> 0:34:58.360
<v Speaker 3>insurance premiums stay the same, it's still subject to the company.

0:34:58.640 --> 0:35:00.560
<v Speaker 3>You know, they can change it. So just like what

0:35:00.680 --> 0:35:04.319
<v Speaker 3>Saias did, right. So okay, first of all, we need

0:35:04.360 --> 0:35:06.840
<v Speaker 3>to talk about and understand why life insurance is important. Right.

0:35:07.480 --> 0:35:11.520
<v Speaker 3>So it's important for a few different reasons, but the

0:35:11.640 --> 0:35:14.880
<v Speaker 3>main reason obviously, is that you want to provide a

0:35:15.000 --> 0:35:17.960
<v Speaker 3>certain level of comfort, and you want to leave a legacy,

0:35:18.280 --> 0:35:19.759
<v Speaker 3>and you want to be able to take care of

0:35:20.040 --> 0:35:23.480
<v Speaker 3>your financial responsibilities when you're no longer here. I always

0:35:23.480 --> 0:35:27.439
<v Speaker 3>say all the time, it's nobody's responsibility to take care

0:35:27.480 --> 0:35:31.200
<v Speaker 3>of your family except for you, right. And that's men

0:35:31.560 --> 0:35:34.239
<v Speaker 3>and women, right, because we live in a society where

0:35:34.680 --> 0:35:38.080
<v Speaker 3>men and women work, and a lot of times women

0:35:38.520 --> 0:35:41.000
<v Speaker 3>make more money than the men. Right. They're the bread

0:35:41.080 --> 0:35:44.400
<v Speaker 3>winners in the home, or they may be single parents

0:35:45.000 --> 0:35:47.000
<v Speaker 3>on both sides, or even if you don't have a children,

0:35:47.040 --> 0:35:50.040
<v Speaker 3>you still have responsibilities, right, so I equate. You know,

0:35:50.080 --> 0:35:51.920
<v Speaker 3>it's unfortunate a lot of times, especially in our community,

0:35:51.920 --> 0:35:56.239
<v Speaker 3>when somebody passes away and other people have to raise

0:35:56.360 --> 0:35:58.520
<v Speaker 3>money for them, right, like go fund me pages and

0:35:58.600 --> 0:36:01.360
<v Speaker 3>things like that. That would be kind of like, and

0:36:01.480 --> 0:36:03.360
<v Speaker 3>this is no shame on anybody, because you have to

0:36:03.400 --> 0:36:04.440
<v Speaker 3>do what you have to do. But I'm just saying

0:36:04.480 --> 0:36:06.840
<v Speaker 3>as far that that person didn't plant properly, right, that

0:36:06.920 --> 0:36:10.120
<v Speaker 3>would be the equivalent of somebody coming into your home

0:36:10.360 --> 0:36:13.080
<v Speaker 3>and having to pay your bills for you. Right, It's

0:36:13.120 --> 0:36:16.160
<v Speaker 3>your responsibility to take care of that, right. So that's

0:36:16.200 --> 0:36:19.640
<v Speaker 3>what Life Insurance does, right. It allows your family to

0:36:20.080 --> 0:36:23.680
<v Speaker 3>go on and to take care of your responsibility when

0:36:23.760 --> 0:36:27.160
<v Speaker 3>you pass, as far as just the basics of burying yourself,

0:36:27.320 --> 0:36:30.400
<v Speaker 3>but also you know, putting your kids in school and

0:36:30.840 --> 0:36:33.080
<v Speaker 3>making sure that they have clothes to wear and that

0:36:33.200 --> 0:36:34.879
<v Speaker 3>they can go to college and things of that nature.

0:36:34.960 --> 0:36:35.080
<v Speaker 6>Right.

0:36:35.200 --> 0:36:37.839
<v Speaker 3>So, and it's important that we start to think long

0:36:38.000 --> 0:36:40.399
<v Speaker 3>term too, because when we talk about generational wealth, that's

0:36:40.480 --> 0:36:42.960
<v Speaker 3>like a real popular term, but what does that really mean? Right?

0:36:43.360 --> 0:36:45.680
<v Speaker 3>That means that you want to create wealth for generations.

0:36:46.160 --> 0:36:48.560
<v Speaker 3>So One of the easiest ways to create wealth for

0:36:48.760 --> 0:36:51.719
<v Speaker 3>generations is to have a life insurance policy, right, because

0:36:51.719 --> 0:36:55.080
<v Speaker 3>what you're doing is actually buying money, right. So that's

0:36:55.120 --> 0:36:57.760
<v Speaker 3>one of the most efficient, one of the easiest ways

0:36:57.840 --> 0:37:01.120
<v Speaker 3>to create generational wealth because it's it's a trendy term,

0:37:01.760 --> 0:37:04.200
<v Speaker 3>but the average person doesn't have a multi million dollar

0:37:04.280 --> 0:37:06.920
<v Speaker 3>business that they can leave. The average person doesn't have

0:37:07.239 --> 0:37:09.880
<v Speaker 3>five million dollars in a bank that they can lead, right.

0:37:09.960 --> 0:37:12.200
<v Speaker 3>The average person might not even have a home. They

0:37:12.320 --> 0:37:15.560
<v Speaker 3>might not even own a home. But you can own

0:37:15.560 --> 0:37:18.000
<v Speaker 3>an insurance policy. You can have one hundred thousand dollars,

0:37:18.320 --> 0:37:21.279
<v Speaker 3>half a million, a million dollars. That's realistic, right, So

0:37:21.440 --> 0:37:23.959
<v Speaker 3>this is something that can actually be obtained in real life,

0:37:24.040 --> 0:37:25.840
<v Speaker 3>not just to catchy phrase.

0:37:26.160 --> 0:37:28.040
<v Speaker 5>So at twenty five, when you told me that, and

0:37:28.120 --> 0:37:30.359
<v Speaker 5>I was in my mind I'm not even thinking about

0:37:30.360 --> 0:37:32.160
<v Speaker 5>life insurance, but when I saw how serious you were

0:37:32.200 --> 0:37:34.719
<v Speaker 5>about it, I'm like, wait, this makes perfect sense. I

0:37:34.760 --> 0:37:36.480
<v Speaker 5>mean you probably you detailed it it just like how

0:37:36.520 --> 0:37:38.719
<v Speaker 5>you did now straight from me, and I was like, wow,

0:37:39.120 --> 0:37:39.520
<v Speaker 5>I have to.

0:37:39.560 --> 0:37:41.239
<v Speaker 3>Get this as early as possible. And you planned for

0:37:41.320 --> 0:37:43.400
<v Speaker 3>the future because when you got the insurance, you were

0:37:43.640 --> 0:37:47.080
<v Speaker 3>single right, No, yep, But now you have a family,

0:37:47.239 --> 0:37:49.399
<v Speaker 3>you have kids, you have a wife, you have a home,

0:37:49.920 --> 0:37:51.520
<v Speaker 3>so now you really need it, right, it.

0:37:51.560 --> 0:37:54.320
<v Speaker 4>Makes more sense. I'm like, wow, I've had that's a

0:37:54.360 --> 0:37:56.279
<v Speaker 4>good thing. I've had this for eleven years now, right,

0:37:56.400 --> 0:37:58.480
<v Speaker 4>Like it meant so much. I just want to go

0:37:58.600 --> 0:38:00.640
<v Speaker 4>back because you said the previous so low.

0:38:00.760 --> 0:38:02.400
<v Speaker 5>When you do it at your job, one of the

0:38:02.480 --> 0:38:06.000
<v Speaker 5>things that studies are shown is that the assurance.

0:38:05.600 --> 0:38:08.560
<v Speaker 4>Amounts are a lot lower than when you do it

0:38:08.640 --> 0:38:09.080
<v Speaker 4>with a group.

0:38:09.160 --> 0:38:11.520
<v Speaker 5>So it ranges from twenty five thousand dollars policy to

0:38:12.120 --> 0:38:14.840
<v Speaker 5>maybe a fifty thousand dollars policy, whereas that might not

0:38:15.080 --> 0:38:17.440
<v Speaker 5>even cover what you need as far as your financial

0:38:17.480 --> 0:38:19.840
<v Speaker 5>responsibilities in the event that something happens to you.

0:38:20.160 --> 0:38:22.720
<v Speaker 4>So, like you want talk about the difference in the amounts.

0:38:22.400 --> 0:38:24.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so I'll talk about the amount, but first I

0:38:24.200 --> 0:38:26.000
<v Speaker 3>want to actually just talk about the different types of policy.

0:38:26.239 --> 0:38:29.319
<v Speaker 3>There's different type of policy. So there's really a few

0:38:29.360 --> 0:38:31.120
<v Speaker 3>different types of policies, but it comes down to two

0:38:31.760 --> 0:38:34.640
<v Speaker 3>term policies and a permanent policy. Right, And there's different

0:38:34.640 --> 0:38:38.000
<v Speaker 3>types of permanent policies. But a term policy is a

0:38:38.080 --> 0:38:40.840
<v Speaker 3>policy that lasts a term right, So like ten to fifteen,

0:38:40.960 --> 0:38:43.719
<v Speaker 3>twenty year term, right, so you have life. This is

0:38:43.719 --> 0:38:45.320
<v Speaker 3>what most people think abou when think about likee insurance.

0:38:45.320 --> 0:38:46.880
<v Speaker 3>It's the most basic form of insurance where you have

0:38:46.960 --> 0:38:50.480
<v Speaker 3>an insurance policy, you pay a premium, and if you die,

0:38:50.600 --> 0:38:52.520
<v Speaker 3>somebody gets money. So it's a term. So let's say

0:38:52.520 --> 0:38:54.239
<v Speaker 3>it's a twenty year term, right, So you're paying your

0:38:54.280 --> 0:38:57.239
<v Speaker 3>premium for twenty years. If you die before that twenty

0:38:57.320 --> 0:39:00.080
<v Speaker 3>year mark is up, then your family gets money. You

0:39:00.200 --> 0:39:03.000
<v Speaker 3>outlive that term that you can reapply for the insurance anymore,

0:39:03.040 --> 0:39:04.600
<v Speaker 3>you can let it last you don't have it anymore,

0:39:04.640 --> 0:39:07.560
<v Speaker 3>but it's just a certain period of time. That's the term.

0:39:07.880 --> 0:39:10.800
<v Speaker 3>And then most group insurance is if your jobs for

0:39:10.920 --> 0:39:13.320
<v Speaker 3>as long as you work at that job, or sometimes

0:39:13.360 --> 0:39:16.399
<v Speaker 3>it could be extended in retirement. But so that's one

0:39:16.520 --> 0:39:18.960
<v Speaker 3>form of it where it's just a premium a death

0:39:19.000 --> 0:39:22.680
<v Speaker 3>benefit and that's it. Another the flip side to that

0:39:22.760 --> 0:39:25.600
<v Speaker 3>coin is what's called permanent insurance. Right, So permanent insurance

0:39:26.600 --> 0:39:29.040
<v Speaker 3>most of the time most commonly known as what's called

0:39:29.080 --> 0:39:31.320
<v Speaker 3>whole life insurance. There are different types of permanent but

0:39:31.360 --> 0:39:34.160
<v Speaker 3>we'll just keep it basic. Whole life insurance right, whole

0:39:34.200 --> 0:39:37.400
<v Speaker 3>life insurance lasts your whole life, you pay a premium,

0:39:37.440 --> 0:39:39.480
<v Speaker 3>you have a death benefit, but it also builds what's

0:39:39.480 --> 0:39:43.040
<v Speaker 3>called cash value. Cash values money that grows inside of

0:39:43.120 --> 0:39:45.839
<v Speaker 3>the life insurance policy. Right And the money that goes

0:39:45.880 --> 0:39:48.239
<v Speaker 3>inside of the life insurance policy, now you can use

0:39:48.360 --> 0:39:51.640
<v Speaker 3>that a line and you can borrow from the policy.

0:39:51.719 --> 0:39:53.759
<v Speaker 3>Right Now, that's the benefit that you can use while

0:39:53.760 --> 0:39:54.240
<v Speaker 3>you're alive.

0:39:54.480 --> 0:39:57.200
<v Speaker 7>So, and that's good for people who say, well, some

0:39:57.320 --> 0:39:59.400
<v Speaker 7>people don't really care what they leave for their family

0:39:59.680 --> 0:40:01.719
<v Speaker 7>or you know whoever else, if they're single, they have no.

0:40:02.120 --> 0:40:06.200
<v Speaker 3>Life, right Because so now you're actually saving money as well.

0:40:06.280 --> 0:40:07.960
<v Speaker 3>So it's a double edged sword. Right. So now some

0:40:08.040 --> 0:40:11.879
<v Speaker 3>people say, okay, well only by term insurance, don't buy

0:40:11.960 --> 0:40:14.719
<v Speaker 3>whole life insurance, or some people say only buy whole

0:40:14.800 --> 0:40:18.400
<v Speaker 3>life insurance, don't buy term insurance. I'm of the mindset

0:40:18.520 --> 0:40:22.960
<v Speaker 3>that no shoe is ever going to fit any all foots, right,

0:40:23.200 --> 0:40:27.160
<v Speaker 3>so you have to, you know, see what's best for

0:40:27.239 --> 0:40:30.560
<v Speaker 3>you and your family, because they both have advantages, and

0:40:30.640 --> 0:40:33.719
<v Speaker 3>they both can be beneficial, and they both have things

0:40:33.760 --> 0:40:36.880
<v Speaker 3>that may not be attractive. Right. So, but one thing

0:40:37.000 --> 0:40:39.840
<v Speaker 3>that I want to keep in mind for our listeners

0:40:39.960 --> 0:40:41.879
<v Speaker 3>is that one of the bigges things why people say

0:40:42.000 --> 0:40:44.640
<v Speaker 3>buy term and don't buy whole life is that it's

0:40:44.680 --> 0:40:47.960
<v Speaker 3>what's called buy term and invest a difference, Whereas they're

0:40:47.960 --> 0:40:50.359
<v Speaker 3>saying that, well, whole life isn't a good investment because

0:40:50.360 --> 0:40:53.080
<v Speaker 3>if you invested your money in stock or an investment,

0:40:53.239 --> 0:40:55.800
<v Speaker 3>it would earn more than the rate of return that

0:40:55.800 --> 0:40:57.640
<v Speaker 3>it woul get in a whole life policy. That's true,

0:40:58.440 --> 0:41:01.080
<v Speaker 3>but it's not an investment. It's life and right. So

0:41:01.200 --> 0:41:03.719
<v Speaker 3>it's like it's apples to orange. It's apples to orange

0:41:03.760 --> 0:41:06.840
<v Speaker 3>in comparison. So you can do both. You don't have

0:41:07.000 --> 0:41:08.759
<v Speaker 3>to do one or the other. Right, You can have

0:41:08.800 --> 0:41:11.239
<v Speaker 3>an investment where you're actually growing money. You can have

0:41:11.320 --> 0:41:14.479
<v Speaker 3>a life insurance policy where it's a permanent policy. Because

0:41:14.480 --> 0:41:16.880
<v Speaker 3>the thing about the life insurance also is that hopefully

0:41:16.920 --> 0:41:20.719
<v Speaker 3>you don't die in twenty years. I mean you have

0:41:20.920 --> 0:41:23.200
<v Speaker 3>term insurance. Most of the term policies don't pay out

0:41:23.280 --> 0:41:25.960
<v Speaker 3>because most of the time people don't die within that term.

0:41:26.520 --> 0:41:28.239
<v Speaker 3>So if I have a twenty year term policy, I

0:41:28.280 --> 0:41:32.400
<v Speaker 3>don't want to die in twenty years, you know. I

0:41:32.480 --> 0:41:35.840
<v Speaker 3>mean it's good to have just in case, But the

0:41:35.920 --> 0:41:38.640
<v Speaker 3>whole life. Everybody's going to die eventually, so it doesn't

0:41:38.640 --> 0:41:40.680
<v Speaker 3>matter whether I'm ninety or one hundred years or I

0:41:40.719 --> 0:41:44.399
<v Speaker 3>can still leave a legacy for my family. So these

0:41:44.440 --> 0:41:47.680
<v Speaker 3>are things that you know, people have to understand, and

0:41:48.680 --> 0:41:51.360
<v Speaker 3>a lot of times in our community it's unfortunate. Especially

0:41:52.280 --> 0:41:55.279
<v Speaker 3>you know, we talk about like Aretha Franklin, right, she

0:41:56.680 --> 0:42:01.360
<v Speaker 3>passed away last year and her state it was a

0:42:01.480 --> 0:42:04.480
<v Speaker 3>mess because she never planned for her estate, right. And

0:42:04.760 --> 0:42:06.000
<v Speaker 3>one of the things I don't know if this is

0:42:06.000 --> 0:42:08.120
<v Speaker 3>true or not, but I heard that she said that

0:42:08.280 --> 0:42:10.720
<v Speaker 3>she never really wanted to do a state planning because

0:42:10.760 --> 0:42:13.600
<v Speaker 3>she didn't want to jinx herself. And it's like, you're

0:42:13.640 --> 0:42:18.160
<v Speaker 3>gonna die, It's not yeah, nobody, Look newsflash, you're not.

0:42:19.280 --> 0:42:21.200
<v Speaker 3>It's going to happen, right, So either you plan for

0:42:21.400 --> 0:42:23.080
<v Speaker 3>it or you don't plan for it, but it's going

0:42:23.160 --> 0:42:24.960
<v Speaker 3>to happen either way. Right, So I just want to

0:42:25.000 --> 0:42:26.840
<v Speaker 3>take like a couple of minutes. We talked about the

0:42:26.840 --> 0:42:29.640
<v Speaker 3>state planning because part of it is on the financial side,

0:42:29.680 --> 0:42:31.520
<v Speaker 3>like life insurance stuff like that, but it's also it's

0:42:31.719 --> 0:42:35.000
<v Speaker 3>very important to plan on the legal side as well, right,

0:42:35.440 --> 0:42:39.840
<v Speaker 3>So like a will. You're a lawyer, so what is

0:42:39.880 --> 0:42:42.399
<v Speaker 3>a will? And why should people have a will? Because

0:42:42.440 --> 0:42:43.920
<v Speaker 3>I think that everybody should have a will. A lot

0:42:43.960 --> 0:42:46.319
<v Speaker 3>of times people have the misconception that if they're not rich,

0:42:46.880 --> 0:42:48.960
<v Speaker 3>they're not wealthy, they don't need to have a will,

0:42:49.040 --> 0:42:50.759
<v Speaker 3>they can wait to have a will. I think that

0:42:50.920 --> 0:42:52.800
<v Speaker 3>everybody should have a will, and a will can be

0:42:52.960 --> 0:42:55.640
<v Speaker 3>revised as time goes along. Can you just briefly talk

0:42:55.680 --> 0:42:56.560
<v Speaker 3>about like what a will is.

0:42:56.880 --> 0:42:59.399
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, So basically a will is just like a plan

0:42:59.560 --> 0:43:01.560
<v Speaker 7>for what's going to happen when you pass away. So

0:43:01.640 --> 0:43:03.560
<v Speaker 7>you're basically going to say, for all the stuff that

0:43:03.640 --> 0:43:05.920
<v Speaker 7>I own, that's a value, I want it to be

0:43:06.239 --> 0:43:10.000
<v Speaker 7>given out according to this in this manner. And if

0:43:10.080 --> 0:43:12.880
<v Speaker 7>you have small children, which is really really important, if

0:43:12.880 --> 0:43:14.600
<v Speaker 7>you have small children, to have a will, you're gonna

0:43:14.920 --> 0:43:17.560
<v Speaker 7>dictate who's going to take care of your child, because

0:43:17.760 --> 0:43:21.200
<v Speaker 7>if you pass away and you don't have anyone in

0:43:21.320 --> 0:43:23.799
<v Speaker 7>place to take care of your child, like a godparent

0:43:23.880 --> 0:43:26.200
<v Speaker 7>is not a legal guardian. So some of us you

0:43:26.560 --> 0:43:28.960
<v Speaker 7>appoint a godparent and you say this person, but that's

0:43:29.040 --> 0:43:29.720
<v Speaker 7>not good.

0:43:29.680 --> 0:43:30.200
<v Speaker 3>Enough, you know.

0:43:30.320 --> 0:43:33.719
<v Speaker 7>Basically, so a will is a legal document that as

0:43:33.800 --> 0:43:36.400
<v Speaker 7>long as it's executed like signed in the proper manner,

0:43:36.840 --> 0:43:39.160
<v Speaker 7>is gonna basically be able to say, this is what

0:43:39.280 --> 0:43:41.880
<v Speaker 7>this person wanted, you know, when they passed away with

0:43:41.960 --> 0:43:42.719
<v Speaker 7>their stuff, Okay.

0:43:42.760 --> 0:43:44.200
<v Speaker 3>And then also, I think it's important to have a

0:43:44.239 --> 0:43:48.240
<v Speaker 3>living will, right, So a living will, from my understanding,

0:43:48.920 --> 0:43:51.080
<v Speaker 3>you have a health care proxy and you have the

0:43:51.160 --> 0:43:54.040
<v Speaker 3>power returney, yes, right, So can you just brief talk

0:43:54.040 --> 0:43:54.320
<v Speaker 3>about that.

0:43:55.960 --> 0:44:00.040
<v Speaker 7>So the healthcare proxy, basically, if you get sick and

0:44:00.160 --> 0:44:03.120
<v Speaker 7>you're in the hospital, your loved ones will not be

0:44:03.160 --> 0:44:06.040
<v Speaker 7>able to make medical decisions for you, right, So the

0:44:06.320 --> 0:44:08.120
<v Speaker 7>hospital is not going to really take their word for it.

0:44:08.200 --> 0:44:11.320
<v Speaker 7>And it's also difficult even if you're a spouse, you

0:44:11.440 --> 0:44:13.960
<v Speaker 7>may not be able to dictate what happens to that

0:44:14.200 --> 0:44:16.640
<v Speaker 7>person or how the hospital takes care of her him

0:44:16.719 --> 0:44:16.920
<v Speaker 7>or her.

0:44:17.239 --> 0:44:19.960
<v Speaker 6>And so the healthcare proxy will say, you know, if

0:44:20.040 --> 0:44:20.680
<v Speaker 6>I'm sick, I.

0:44:20.760 --> 0:44:23.000
<v Speaker 7>Want this person to make the decision and I want

0:44:23.040 --> 0:44:25.600
<v Speaker 7>them to be able to do these particular things. And

0:44:25.800 --> 0:44:27.880
<v Speaker 7>a living will kind of goes even further into that.

0:44:28.040 --> 0:44:31.680
<v Speaker 7>It gives like details of like treatment, like say, God forbid,

0:44:31.760 --> 0:44:34.560
<v Speaker 7>you have cancer. It will say like you know, you know,

0:44:34.640 --> 0:44:37.120
<v Speaker 7>I don't want chemo or you know, whatever the case.

0:44:37.160 --> 0:44:40.320
<v Speaker 7>It you can detail exactly what type of treatments that

0:44:40.360 --> 0:44:42.200
<v Speaker 7>you have and give direction to the person who you

0:44:42.280 --> 0:44:44.360
<v Speaker 7>gave the health care proxy to so they have some

0:44:44.520 --> 0:44:49.439
<v Speaker 7>understanding on how to act on your behalf. So power

0:44:49.440 --> 0:44:53.440
<v Speaker 7>of attorney is also extremely important because if you're incapacitated,

0:44:53.480 --> 0:44:55.960
<v Speaker 7>like you're still alive, but you can't make decisions for

0:44:56.040 --> 0:44:58.920
<v Speaker 7>yourself the healthcare I'm sorry, the power of attorney is

0:44:59.000 --> 0:45:02.799
<v Speaker 7>going to allow you to appoint somebody to take all

0:45:02.840 --> 0:45:06.680
<v Speaker 7>your finances, your insurance, your bank accounts, your homes, your

0:45:06.719 --> 0:45:11.040
<v Speaker 7>real estate taxes, anything, and if you're taking care of somebody,

0:45:11.120 --> 0:45:13.359
<v Speaker 7>it allows you to it allow that person who has

0:45:13.480 --> 0:45:16.640
<v Speaker 7>your power of attorney to continue giving like customary gifts

0:45:16.719 --> 0:45:19.359
<v Speaker 7>that you normally give to somebody, or that you're taking

0:45:19.400 --> 0:45:21.799
<v Speaker 7>care of somebody, so they can handle all those things

0:45:21.840 --> 0:45:24.600
<v Speaker 7>to make sure that your affairs are in order. And

0:45:24.719 --> 0:45:26.960
<v Speaker 7>so like sometimes people go God forbid into a coma,

0:45:27.040 --> 0:45:28.880
<v Speaker 7>but they come out. You know, you're not necessarily going

0:45:28.920 --> 0:45:31.359
<v Speaker 7>to die, but you can't make decisions or you're just sick,

0:45:31.760 --> 0:45:33.000
<v Speaker 7>So that kind of covers that.

0:45:33.239 --> 0:45:35.160
<v Speaker 3>Now it's extremely important, and just so quick, I'll take

0:45:35.160 --> 0:45:38.440
<v Speaker 3>a minute just to tell a personal story. So my grandmother.

0:45:39.200 --> 0:45:43.040
<v Speaker 3>She had twelve kids, right, so she had Alzheimer's disease.

0:45:43.200 --> 0:45:46.360
<v Speaker 3>So when she was in the last stages of her

0:45:46.440 --> 0:45:50.600
<v Speaker 3>life and she was in a coma and she was

0:45:50.600 --> 0:45:53.359
<v Speaker 3>in a hospital, so long story short, half of her

0:45:53.600 --> 0:45:56.480
<v Speaker 3>kids wanted to keep her alive. The other half of

0:45:56.560 --> 0:45:58.560
<v Speaker 3>the kids like, this isn't a quality of life, like

0:45:58.760 --> 0:46:01.120
<v Speaker 3>you need to pull a plug. There fighting with each other.

0:46:01.800 --> 0:46:04.320
<v Speaker 3>Who really knows what she wanted, right, But if she

0:46:04.360 --> 0:46:06.520
<v Speaker 3>would have done that and britten it out like look,

0:46:06.560 --> 0:46:08.640
<v Speaker 3>I don't keep me alive like you know, or keep me,

0:46:09.000 --> 0:46:11.200
<v Speaker 3>it wouldn't be an argument. So regardless of how you feel,

0:46:11.719 --> 0:46:14.479
<v Speaker 3>you can't make a decision because it's already put in place.

0:46:15.640 --> 0:46:16.080
<v Speaker 5>This is just.

0:46:16.239 --> 0:46:20.040
<v Speaker 3>And also, she owned a home and once again she

0:46:20.080 --> 0:46:22.560
<v Speaker 3>didn't have a will, right, So now you have twelve

0:46:22.640 --> 0:46:25.040
<v Speaker 3>kids that have different ideas of what they want to

0:46:25.080 --> 0:46:27.200
<v Speaker 3>do with the home. Someone to rent it out, someone

0:46:27.280 --> 0:46:31.320
<v Speaker 3>to sell it. So now it just causes fights. You

0:46:31.440 --> 0:46:35.000
<v Speaker 3>break up families, brothers and sisters stop speaking to each other.

0:46:35.680 --> 0:46:38.680
<v Speaker 3>It happens all the time. It's pretty common, right, So

0:46:39.280 --> 0:46:41.360
<v Speaker 3>this is an unfortunate situation and this is something that

0:46:41.400 --> 0:46:45.640
<v Speaker 3>we have to plan for. So thank you for coming

0:46:45.880 --> 0:46:51.440
<v Speaker 3>and giving your expertise, because, like I said, it's important,

0:46:51.520 --> 0:46:54.880
<v Speaker 3>especially in our communities where we don't know a lot off.

0:46:55.120 --> 0:46:57.719
<v Speaker 5>It's not a conversation would happened, we're not right, So

0:46:57.840 --> 0:47:01.960
<v Speaker 5>it's like hopefully like this conversation and here open eyes, like, hey,

0:47:02.000 --> 0:47:03.799
<v Speaker 5>this is something we should playful because like what you said,

0:47:04.000 --> 0:47:09.560
<v Speaker 5>nobody uh is planning I mean doesn't, but we should

0:47:09.680 --> 0:47:11.719
<v Speaker 5>right because like we said, it's not for the people

0:47:11.719 --> 0:47:13.839
<v Speaker 5>who live. It's for the people, not for the people

0:47:14.200 --> 0:47:16.720
<v Speaker 5>who die, for the people who live on with our legacies.

0:47:17.000 --> 0:47:17.440
