It might 27 00:01:27,560 --> 00:01:30,440 Speaker 3: seem boring to save, plan and make calculated decisions with 28 00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,520 Speaker 3: your bank, but keeping your money boring is what helps 29 00:01:33,520 --> 00:01:36,640 Speaker 3: you live or more happily fulfilled life. P and C 30 00:01:36,760 --> 00:01:41,920 Speaker 3: Bank Brilliantly Boring since eighteen sixty five. Brilliantly Boring since 31 00:01:41,959 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 3: eighteen sixty five is a service mark of the PNC 32 00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:48,680 Speaker 3: Financial Service Group, Inc. P and C Bank National Association 33 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:49,840 Speaker 3: Member FDIC. 34 00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:53,720 Speaker 2: You spoke about the seven streams. I want to talk 35 00:01:53,720 --> 00:01:57,560 Speaker 2: about that your series, your docu series that you're working on, 36 00:01:57,600 --> 00:02:00,840 Speaker 2: but also what's your thesis on seven streams of income? 37 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:03,320 Speaker 2: Because you broke it down the first time. People here 38 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:07,560 Speaker 2: seven streams and it's confusing and everybody has different ideas 39 00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 2: of what's seven streams of income? But from your personal perspective, 40 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:14,880 Speaker 2: how did you get seven streams and what's your viewpoint 41 00:02:14,919 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 2: on that whole seven stream straate. 42 00:02:16,840 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 1: Definitely, I think the goal is to take one thing 43 00:02:21,400 --> 00:02:25,639 Speaker 1: and matched it at one thing and then find services 44 00:02:25,639 --> 00:02:28,440 Speaker 1: and products that are a byproduct of that one thing. 45 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: So like for example, like I'm gonna talk about my streams, 46 00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:34,880 Speaker 1: and we started with a donut shot, which was the 47 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: first stream, which we focused on the three essays saving 48 00:02:38,360 --> 00:02:41,440 Speaker 1: plus sacrifice eqal scaling. That allowed us to now stay 49 00:02:41,480 --> 00:02:44,880 Speaker 1: down in stack. You see all the assets saving plus 50 00:02:44,880 --> 00:02:47,600 Speaker 1: sacrifice equal scaling, and you stay down in stack until 51 00:02:47,600 --> 00:02:49,239 Speaker 1: you save sacrifice and you scale. 52 00:02:49,360 --> 00:02:49,560 Speaker 2: Right. 53 00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 1: So we had the one shot and we just saved. 54 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 1: I drove a Mini Cooper. I drove a Mini Cooper. 55 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:58,280 Speaker 1: I lived in a studio apartment. And then I got 56 00:02:58,280 --> 00:03:01,359 Speaker 1: another shot, and then we just and then we got 57 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 1: a truck, and then we just saved. And then I 58 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:06,239 Speaker 1: got another truck. I mean, you know, then I got 59 00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 1: another shop, and then I got another shop. So that's 60 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 1: five shops. But two of the shops that I got 61 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:13,000 Speaker 1: I own and they have residential units. So that's the 62 00:03:13,040 --> 00:03:16,160 Speaker 1: seven streams, right. So it was really this mindset of 63 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,640 Speaker 1: how can I take this one ability that I have 64 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,960 Speaker 1: not be distracted we're doing other things, not try to 65 00:03:21,960 --> 00:03:24,560 Speaker 1: become a DJA or sell heir on the side. Now 66 00:03:24,600 --> 00:03:27,120 Speaker 1: I try to sell bundles of body wraps. Just focus 67 00:03:27,160 --> 00:03:30,640 Speaker 1: on the donuts, get seven streams. And if those seven 68 00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:33,000 Speaker 1: things could just make me one thousand dollars a week, 69 00:03:33,680 --> 00:03:36,680 Speaker 1: that's two million dollars a year. That was it for me. 70 00:03:37,480 --> 00:03:39,680 Speaker 1: If I made two million dollars a year, I know 71 00:03:39,760 --> 00:03:42,000 Speaker 1: I could easily live in a two million dollar house. 72 00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:44,400 Speaker 1: I know I could easily afford a four million dollar 73 00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:46,880 Speaker 1: house with a mortgage. So I comped my life out 74 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: by saying, if I can just take this and get there, 75 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,960 Speaker 1: So like, think about that one lady who got that salon, 76 00:03:51,960 --> 00:03:53,840 Speaker 1: who making three thousand a week, and how goal is 77 00:03:53,920 --> 00:03:57,600 Speaker 1: nine thousand. Just get two more salons. Don't try to 78 00:03:57,800 --> 00:03:59,720 Speaker 1: be a DJ on the side, and don't start selling 79 00:03:59,760 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: dinner place. Get you more salons. It might take you longer. 80 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,880 Speaker 1: We vastly underestimate what we can accomplish in the long run, 81 00:04:08,520 --> 00:04:10,880 Speaker 1: but we always overestimate what we can accomplish in the 82 00:04:10,920 --> 00:04:14,200 Speaker 1: short run. My marathon been going on six years. I've 83 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,680 Speaker 1: been doing it. I started ten years ago. But I 84 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:18,960 Speaker 1: got it though. See that's where I'm at with it. 85 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 1: I got it. I'm not in a position where I 86 00:04:21,520 --> 00:04:23,760 Speaker 1: got a bunch of debt out on awe, A bunch 87 00:04:23,760 --> 00:04:26,680 Speaker 1: of people, and I could control it. So any given moment, 88 00:04:26,720 --> 00:04:28,840 Speaker 1: I could activate the seven streams, and as long as 89 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:31,480 Speaker 1: I now maintain it, which is a different mindset, I 90 00:04:31,480 --> 00:04:34,159 Speaker 1: can always have the option to perpetuate it. But what 91 00:04:34,200 --> 00:04:36,359 Speaker 1: we got to understand is Black people is that yo, listen, 92 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:39,280 Speaker 1: sit down and focus on maintenance. Got people who want 93 00:04:39,320 --> 00:04:41,280 Speaker 1: to do a podcast, they want DJ and they want 94 00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:44,880 Speaker 1: to do hair. Figure out the DJ in first, whatever's 95 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:46,400 Speaker 1: going to make you the most money. Then I always 96 00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: tell another person this, once you get over the good look, 97 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:51,760 Speaker 1: you get some good money, right, stop focusing on everything 98 00:04:51,760 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 1: that you specifically passionate about. Focus on what's going to 99 00:04:55,000 --> 00:04:57,840 Speaker 1: bring that number in. That's what white folks do. They 100 00:04:58,000 --> 00:05:01,240 Speaker 1: not passionate about owning three thousand buildings. Trust me, they 101 00:05:01,360 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 1: know that that port fully won't get them what they 102 00:05:03,279 --> 00:05:05,640 Speaker 1: want out of life. So it's about giving it everything 103 00:05:05,680 --> 00:05:07,840 Speaker 1: you got and it'll give you everything you want. 104 00:05:07,880 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 2: And then also, so when you came first time, you 105 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:14,240 Speaker 2: talked about even having multiple streams off of one business. Yeah, 106 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,760 Speaker 2: so it's like as far as the restaurant, you could 107 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:19,599 Speaker 2: cater you can have your eads, you can have a 108 00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:20,200 Speaker 2: cooking show. 109 00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:22,400 Speaker 1: So let me break down the substreams that I got. 110 00:05:22,560 --> 00:05:24,880 Speaker 1: So this is this is how my industry works. 111 00:05:24,960 --> 00:05:25,039 Speaker 4: Right. 112 00:05:25,120 --> 00:05:26,760 Speaker 1: Typically, when you see a donut shop, you think, and 113 00:05:26,760 --> 00:05:28,719 Speaker 1: they make the most money from a person walking in 114 00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:32,120 Speaker 1: and buying a donut, not me. We get our money 115 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:34,400 Speaker 1: from brand collaborations day at the top, because we can 116 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 1: be our natural selves and the company will give you 117 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 1: a bag. Right And after brand collaboration, we got what 118 00:05:38,880 --> 00:05:41,719 Speaker 1: we call corporate pickup and drop off, where a company 119 00:05:41,760 --> 00:05:44,080 Speaker 1: can call us and they can establish a weekly catering, 120 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:47,040 Speaker 1: not an annual catering, but a weekly catering, so it's 121 00:05:47,080 --> 00:05:49,920 Speaker 1: like a subscription package. After the catering, we also got 122 00:05:49,920 --> 00:05:52,120 Speaker 1: the truck. With the truck, events we got we could 123 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: do private events, so we could also pull up with 124 00:05:54,000 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 1: the truck and do street venting. After the truck events, 125 00:05:56,720 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: we got people walking in the store. Then we still 126 00:05:59,360 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: got the seven st where we educate people about all 127 00:06:01,400 --> 00:06:03,520 Speaker 1: the things that we've done. And then on top of that, 128 00:06:03,560 --> 00:06:06,160 Speaker 1: we got digital product that we can ship that's six 129 00:06:06,200 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: strings within one string. So now it's just it's a 130 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: domino effect, and I'm telling you it don't bring I 131 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:14,560 Speaker 1: don't make a lot of money off of each stream. 132 00:06:14,839 --> 00:06:16,920 Speaker 1: I make a little off of each stream. I might 133 00:06:16,960 --> 00:06:19,200 Speaker 1: get one cater in a week, but that's one thousand dollars. 134 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: People might come into the store this weekend, but that's 135 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,920 Speaker 1: three thousand dollars. I might get a brand that called 136 00:06:23,920 --> 00:06:26,080 Speaker 1: me and give me ten thousand dollars. And what I 137 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:28,240 Speaker 1: do is I can bind all of that, and I 138 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,240 Speaker 1: cumulate wealth and I stay in my life. 139 00:06:30,480 --> 00:06:34,159 Speaker 4: An illegal alien from Guatemala charged with raping a child 140 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:38,000 Speaker 4: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from Al Salvador 141 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:42,359 Speaker 4: accused of murdering a Texas man of Venezuelan charged with 142 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:46,320 Speaker 4: filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just 143 00:06:46,440 --> 00:06:50,200 Speaker 4: some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President 144 00:06:50,240 --> 00:06:53,760 Speaker 4: Donald J.
