I'm biden. 0:01:30.840 --> 0:01:32.800 You know what they did to land them in jail 0:01:32.840 --> 0:01:34.720 and what they're doing now. A lot of these guys 0:01:34.720 --> 0:01:39.440 are interesting businesses. They're managers at different companies. But they 0:01:39.440 --> 0:01:42.280 didn't let that fella beat them down, you feel me. 0:01:42.400 --> 0:01:44.560 I like that they moving forward and they doing a 0:01:44.600 --> 0:01:47.000 lot of just positive stuff. I like that. I didn't 0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:49.080 have a lot cast I even got y'all on that 0:01:49.160 --> 0:01:53.880 with Bernie fans and talking about fellas and prison reform, 0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:57.160 and that's what I'm moving forward to down in Halladale, 0:01:57.280 --> 0:02:00.520 Hollywood got a lot of the areas. I like that idea. 0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:02.440 But can I ask you a question. Does it matter 0:02:02.520 --> 0:02:04.840 to you what they were convicted of? Like are there 0:02:04.840 --> 0:02:07.920 certain people you're like, yeah, oh no, it doesn't matter 0:02:07.960 --> 0:02:09.919 as long as they have a felony and they're doing 0:02:10.000 --> 0:02:12.120 something positive. Now, if they have a felony and they 0:02:12.200 --> 0:02:14.840 still in the game or whatever, it's like no, I 0:02:14.840 --> 0:02:17.320 don't want to talk to them. But if they're doing 0:02:17.360 --> 0:02:19.839 something positive and they're helping people, and like I said, 0:02:19.880 --> 0:02:22.639 they started a business, no matter what they did to 0:02:22.760 --> 0:02:24.840 go to jail, as long as they changed their line, 0:02:25.360 --> 0:02:27.399 I can help them. I'm even talking to a guy 0:02:27.520 --> 0:02:30.880 right now called Dex third Gun. He's getting ready to 0:02:30.880 --> 0:02:34.440 take a few bus loads of people up to Tallahassee 0:02:34.880 --> 0:02:37.839 on the twelfth and the thirteen to talk to legislation 0:02:38.200 --> 0:02:41.240 somebody men that for and moving forward with guys that 0:02:41.320 --> 0:02:44.880 do have felony conviction. That's dope, that's I love that. 0:02:44.880 --> 0:02:47.239 That's great. Still, you can't even find the what a 0:02:47.320 --> 0:02:51.040 state they have something called no felony. Ever, no matter 0:02:51.080 --> 0:02:52.919 how long a door it was, they could be twenty 0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:56.040 thirty years ago. If you have a felony, you cannot 0:02:56.080 --> 0:03:00.120 live here. That's real. That's why everything you do, when 0:03:00.160 --> 0:03:01.760 it is all part of prison reform. At the end 0:03:01.800 --> 0:03:04.400 of the day, sometimes we have sometimes we have to 0:03:04.440 --> 0:03:06.680 do what our government is not doing, reforming our people. 0:03:06.720 --> 0:03:10.000 You know, we Hello, who's this dust the Marles, North Carolina? 0:03:10.160 --> 0:03:12.480 What's up?

Listen what you're saying. A 0:05:05.560 --> 0:05:09.360 guy who was making minimal rages but everything is still 0:05:09.400 --> 0:05:14.479 with her meaning and a heye his conversations and he 0:05:14.600 --> 0:05:17.320 does not He just don't have a lot of money. 0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:22.200 But where is he working? He worked? He worked that security, okay, 0:05:22.320 --> 0:05:25.560 because curity is a good job. How old is he 0:05:25.200 --> 0:05:28.960 he is in his early forties. But I just don't 0:05:28.960 --> 0:05:31.320 like it's just that when we out, I'm can't have 0:05:31.480 --> 0:05:35.279 to build you know, like he just he just doesn't. 0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:37.480 It's how you know, girls don't really be one love. 0:05:37.560 --> 0:05:39.640 Y'all don't really be one love. Like y'all say, y'all 0:05:39.680 --> 0:05:41.640 dud because you said this man is cool, you got 0:05:41.640 --> 0:05:44.120 everything else, but you're worried about how much money he makes. 0:05:44.240 --> 0:05:45.720 It's how I know y'all really don't be the one 0:05:45.839 --> 0:05:47.880 love and you need to stop lying to yourself. I'm 0:05:47.920 --> 0:05:49.800 just I'm just trying to figure it out. Like what 0:05:49.920 --> 0:05:52.240 you think on what like that is? Well, you are 0:05:52.760 --> 0:05:55.560 and you're happy. The only thing you're not happy about 0:05:55.640 --> 0:05:58.640 is having to pay for stuff all the time. No, no, no, no, 0:05:58.720 --> 0:06:01.159 that's not the only thing. I'm just but if you know, 0:06:01.200 --> 0:06:03.800 if you're coming short, if you're coming short all the time, 0:06:03.839 --> 0:06:05.960 But is that what that become an issue later and 0:06:06.200 --> 0:06:11.799 later in life. I think that concern is more about 0:06:11.839 --> 0:06:13.800 his aspirations and what is it that he wants to 0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:16.960 do for himself? Right, But my goal is pushing him 0:06:17.160 --> 0:06:19.120 to do better or pushing him and here gonna look 0:06:19.120 --> 0:06:21.120 for a better job. He may be content with where 0:06:21.160 --> 0:06:23.480 he's doing and that's the problem right now. Okay, so 0:06:23.640 --> 0:06:26.200 you he okay with making this minimum wage and I'm 0:06:26.240 --> 0:06:28.960 looking like a bigger picture. Have you had the conversation 0:06:29.000 --> 0:06:32.120 with him, of course, and what he's saying, I know 0:06:32.240 --> 0:06:34.560 you can't. You can't. Sports don't want to do something. 0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:36.520 They don't have the willing and will powers to do 0:06:36.600 --> 0:06:38.840 it themselves. You can tell them all they alone. He 0:06:38.880 --> 0:06:42.039 probably don't have an aspiration to do better and looks better. 0:06:42.120 --> 0:06:44.719 But then I pushing to do it. Then you like 0:06:45.160 --> 0:06:48.279 talking to all? But are you willing to lose love 0:06:48.320 --> 0:06:53.599 over some money? Oh my god? I know? And like 0:06:53.640 --> 0:06:56.360 I'm thinking long term though, I'm not like you when 0:06:56.400 --> 0:06:58.880 you're at age. You don't want to freaking you're not 0:06:58.920 --> 0:07:00.920 saying this to me day and you're thinking, like this 0:07:01.080 --> 0:07:05.240 needs to be a husband material. Yeah, And I will say, girl, 0:07:05.400 --> 0:07:07.640 it's not just about the money. It's about his motivations 0:07:07.680 --> 0:07:10.280 in life. Right, So that's my thing, Like, if I 0:07:10.520 --> 0:07:13.680 see that you're eager to do better than how how 0:07:13.760 --> 0:07:15.720 can I see the one terming you? If I see 0:07:15.800 --> 0:07:18.360 that you can take with a video. Job is making 0:07:18.480 --> 0:07:21.200 tendence for alf an hour and you're not pushing them 0:07:21.200 --> 0:07:24.920 for greatness? Like, how is that? And that's my further 0:07:25.040 --> 0:07:27.720 with that, that's my that's my thing. You do realize 0:07:27.760 --> 0:07:30.760 most Americans want a better job, right, Most Americans will 0:07:30.760 --> 0:07:33.480 want a career. A lot of those things aren't available. Yeah, 0:07:33.480 --> 0:07:35.840 but if he's not trying, that's really an issue. When 0:07:35.840 --> 0:07:38.880 people are motivated in China going hard. She don't tell 0:07:38.960 --> 0:07:41.560 you all they long to go apply every day for 0:07:41.680 --> 0:07:43.600 a job. I can tell you all they but the 0:07:43.640 --> 0:07:45.000 problem but this is the thing. He might not be 0:07:45.040 --> 0:07:47.440 motivated by money. He might just enjoy life. He might 0:07:47.480 --> 0:07:49.600 not want to work work as hard and work hard. 0:07:49.680 --> 0:07:51.640 He likes his job, he likes the money that he gets, 0:07:51.640 --> 0:07:52.960 and he loves you. Why don't I don't see the 0:07:52.960 --> 0:07:56.280 problem with it about jobs but not low paying. I 0:07:56.360 --> 0:08:00.280 only work with a lot of jobs aren't available. I 0:08:00.360 --> 0:08:03.200 understand all that, I truly do. But if you're looking 0:08:03.280 --> 0:08:06.720 at long term like mortgages and builds and stuff that 0:08:06.840 --> 0:08:09.880 needs to be paid, you got goals in life, and 0:08:09.960 --> 0:08:13.280 you work and you work hard. So I work a 0:08:13.280 --> 0:08:16.240 pretty decent job. So if anything, I'm looking like if 0:08:16.280 --> 0:08:18.840 I stating a situation, I'm gonna be front and most 0:08:18.880 --> 0:08:20.880 of the dorm build. So it shouldn't you know, I 0:08:20.920 --> 0:08:22.960 ain't going front of the money shouldn't matter if you 0:08:23.000 --> 0:08:25.320 love somebody, because then what you're gonna you leave this dude, 0:08:25.480 --> 0:08:27.640 then you find somebody that makes a bunch of money. 0:08:27.800 --> 0:08:30.600 He cheats on you, he doesn't treat you right, but yeah, 0:08:30.760 --> 0:08:32.480 he pays the most of the bills. I hope you 0:08:32.480 --> 0:08:34.199 get laid off. I hope you get laid off, and 0:08:34.720 --> 0:08:37.560 then you'll then you'll understand what love is, all right. 0:08:39.200 --> 0:08:40.800 I hope you get laid off at all. He got 0:08:40.800 --> 0:08:43.679 in that little minimum wage job, all right, and then 0:08:43.720 --> 0:08:45.960 you don't really appreciate that love and what you bring 0:08:46.000 --> 0:08:47.600 to the table. But we can't tell her where her 0:08:47.640 --> 0:08:49.880 priority should be in a relationship. If it's important to 0:08:49.920 --> 0:08:53.720 her that has somebody trouble with somebody, you're always causing troubles. Now, 0:08:53.960 --> 0:08:56.320 I hope I don't get laid off, but I hope 0:08:56.360 --> 0:09:00.280 he finds a better job them to get motivated, all right. 0:09:00.360 --> 0:09:03.400 Right now, you might just enjoy what he's getting. Love 0:09:03.440 --> 0:09:08.000 you more, all right. We got more coming up next 0:09:08.000 --> 0:09:14.200 with a breakfast club the Breakfast Club.

That's 0:10:07.040 --> 0:10:09.240 that's interesting because you're the person that people run too 0:10:09.320 --> 0:10:11.840 for affirmations. So who does who does Damon John go 0:10:11.880 --> 0:10:15.400 to for affirmations? Oh? You know I listen. Well, first 0:10:15.440 --> 0:10:17.040 of all, I read, I read affirmation, but I read 0:10:17.120 --> 0:10:19.080 more like goal setting. Okay, go to night, Go to 0:10:19.120 --> 0:10:21.440 bed tonight. Because um, it's say eighty percent of the 0:10:21.440 --> 0:10:24.400 time that you're sleeping, you're thinking about either what you 0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:26.560 want to accomplish when you wake up or what you 0:10:26.640 --> 0:10:29.160 fear when you wake up. So if you're if you're 0:10:29.200 --> 0:10:30.960 if you're reading things about how you want to you know, 0:10:31.000 --> 0:10:33.840 be healthy, or or how much paper you want to make, 0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:35.280 or how you want to be spending more time with 0:10:35.320 --> 0:10:36.920 your family before you go to bed, those are the 0:10:36.920 --> 0:10:39.520 things you're gonna dream about and if you read them 0:10:39.520 --> 0:10:41.240 again when you wake up, which I said is the 0:10:41.240 --> 0:10:43.480 praying and or the meditating, is you're gonna take one 0:10:43.520 --> 0:10:46.360 action towards each one of those goals most likely, and 0:10:46.400 --> 0:10:48.120 before you know it, they'll compound over the course of 0:10:48.160 --> 0:10:50.880 six months or what are the cases? So those goals 0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:54.560 that I said, I reset them every six months. This 0:10:54.720 --> 0:10:56.840 is interesting because every time I see you, the first 0:10:56.840 --> 0:10:59.000 thing I always think about is Fooboo, and then I 0:10:59.000 --> 0:11:02.000 think about Shark Tagh And now you have this album 0:11:02.520 --> 0:11:07.160 U that's coming out visualized its more like spoken word. Okay. 0:11:07.360 --> 0:11:09.559 I called Chris Brown and be on it and um, 0:11:09.600 --> 0:11:11.320 you know he gave me because you know how tight wheel, 0:11:11.360 --> 0:11:13.560 he gave me his answer machine to his guest house 0:11:14.240 --> 0:11:15.679 and he didn't call me. So I think that he 0:11:15.800 --> 0:11:17.640 decided to put out of an album at the same time. 0:11:17.720 --> 0:11:19.920 Just you know what I'm saying, because you just knew 0:11:19.920 --> 0:11:22.240 all the traction was gonna be there that day. Yeah. 0:11:22.480 --> 0:11:25.400 Why an album though? You know because when I was 0:11:25.440 --> 0:11:26.839 I was driving on the street one day and I 0:11:26.840 --> 0:11:28.440 think it was MLK day and I was listening to 0:11:28.480 --> 0:11:31.120 obviously one of the greatest speeches that was ever ever 0:11:31.760 --> 0:11:35.200 written in or performing. It was by doctor Marl Luke 0:11:35.320 --> 0:11:37.640 King and somebody yeah, and somebody threw a beat to it, 0:11:37.640 --> 0:11:38.839 and I was like, man, I want to work out 0:11:38.840 --> 0:11:40.360 to this. I want to go to the gym. I 0:11:40.400 --> 0:11:42.400 want to listen to this. So when you see my speeches, 0:11:42.520 --> 0:11:44.160 you know I have I have obviously a lot of speeches. 0:11:44.200 --> 0:11:47.480 I'm out there on the circuit here. One time. You've 0:11:47.520 --> 0:11:51.200 heard it enough. But one of my young cats named 0:11:51.200 --> 0:11:54.320 Noble Producers, said, let me just put some music underneath 0:11:54.360 --> 0:11:57.240 these things, because somebody wants to listen to this thing 0:11:57.240 --> 0:11:59.040 and work out and make that day about them. It's 0:11:59.080 --> 0:12:01.280 not it ain't talking about smacking jicks and this. And 0:12:01.320 --> 0:12:03.760 then he's talking about what's in a few goal settings, 0:12:03.760 --> 0:12:06.280 talking about visualized, talking about being a boss, and they 0:12:06.360 --> 0:12:08.960 want to get ready to go to work or be 0:12:09.040 --> 0:12:11.640 on the subway or driving the car on the treadmill. 0:12:11.679 --> 0:12:13.280 So I said, all right, we'll just do it, you know, 0:12:13.360 --> 0:12:15.439 because you know, you got this rhythmic thing to this 0:12:15.559 --> 0:12:18.120 is hooked by other people and things that nature. And 0:12:18.120 --> 0:12:19.720 then we decided to put it out and sort of grow, 0:12:19.800 --> 0:12:22.960 sort to grow. People started requesting it, and it's out 0:12:23.080 --> 0:12:24.880 and it got fat man scoop on one of them, 0:12:24.880 --> 0:12:27.120 and uh, you got Wallow all over it. We got 0:12:27.200 --> 0:12:29.920 Wallow all over it. Yeah, Wallow and uh and and 0:12:29.920 --> 0:12:31.880 it's doing well. But a lot of people are downloading 0:12:31.920 --> 0:12:33.680 and talking about it. So I felt good about it. 0:12:33.720 --> 0:12:37.160 What about Wallow? Did you gravitate to war? So if 0:12:37.160 --> 0:12:38.840 you don't know him, A wallow was to six seven, 0:12:40.760 --> 0:12:43.199 young young man. I mean, I go down the street 0:12:43.200 --> 0:12:44.640 with him in Philly and a lot of people hollow 0:12:44.640 --> 0:12:47.440 at me. But this dude's a superstar. And he came 0:12:47.480 --> 0:12:51.080 home after doing all, you know, doing his time and right, 0:12:51.240 --> 0:12:53.240 I think he did like twenty years, and he is 0:12:53.320 --> 0:12:55.839 he's just the energy. He's the street. You know, you'll 0:12:55.840 --> 0:12:58.720 see him. He'll run across a busy highway and he'll 0:12:58.760 --> 0:13:00.840 just start yelling at the camera. But he's saying it 0:13:00.880 --> 0:13:02.520 in a way that you know, a lot of the 0:13:02.600 --> 0:13:04.480 young brothers and sisters when I talk out there, you know, 0:13:04.800 --> 0:13:07.080 I don't I don't say I don't, I don't get 0:13:07.080 --> 0:13:09.480 in your ass like that. He just really just says 0:13:09.520 --> 0:13:11.480 in a real, real way. And a lot of people 0:13:11.520 --> 0:13:14.040 resonating with him. He is energy, he's the streets. And 0:13:14.080 --> 0:13:16.280 they look at it like he's been through I've been 0:13:16.320 --> 0:13:18.280 through it. I mean, dude, dude, dude put in whatever 0:13:18.360 --> 0:13:20.920 ten or twenty years and he came out and you know, 0:13:20.960 --> 0:13:22.960 he got probably more follows than I do, you know, 0:13:23.040 --> 0:13:25.160 and uh, but people are resonating with him, and I 0:13:25.200 --> 0:13:26.760 just think that so many people in the streets. Don't 0:13:26.800 --> 0:13:28.240 realize I ain't gonna come to your house and take 0:13:28.240 --> 0:13:30.640 you off the couch and say I'm gonna make you rich, right, 0:13:30.800 --> 0:13:32.719 you know you gotta you're gonna go out and get it. 0:13:32.880 --> 0:13:35.360 That's why I watched Stark Tink because as an entrepreneur, 0:13:35.400 --> 0:13:38.120 I think anybody who's starting a business should watch that 0:13:38.160 --> 0:13:39.920 show because it's helped me out a lot. As far 0:13:39.960 --> 0:13:42.800 as when I have to pitch my business to, you know, 0:13:42.880 --> 0:13:45.600 get new clients and things like that. I pay attention 0:13:45.640 --> 0:13:47.840 so much to how people go in there, and sometimes 0:13:47.840 --> 0:13:50.360 they're not prepared. Yeah, so I pay attention to that. 0:13:50.640 --> 0:13:53.319 How important numbers are because at the end of the day, 0:13:53.320 --> 0:13:55.760 when you're partnering with somebody, it's not just an emotional thing. 0:13:55.800 --> 0:13:58.360 It's also the business. Am I going to make some 0:13:58.400 --> 0:14:00.640 money off of? This? Might be a great idea, it 0:14:00.720 --> 0:14:03.880 might be something that's beneficial, but is it lucrative? Yeah? 0:14:04.120 --> 0:14:06.600 What's your objective? Is there going to be an exit? 0:14:06.640 --> 0:14:09.120 Who's your customer? Do your customer pay seventy nine for 0:14:09.160 --> 0:14:11.360 this or ninety nine for this? Where do your customer live? 0:14:11.400 --> 0:14:13.360 Why do they resonate with you? And you know what 0:14:13.440 --> 0:14:15.480 we learned too you know, because if I wasn't on 0:14:15.559 --> 0:14:17.600 Shark Tank, I'd have been doing business the same way 0:14:17.640 --> 0:14:19.440 that I was doing business twenty years. I've been making 0:14:19.440 --> 0:14:21.840 a shirt hopefully hopefully Macy's buys it, and I don't 0:14:21.840 --> 0:14:23.600 know who walks by and purchase it or not, and 0:14:23.640 --> 0:14:25.920 I don't even know where the person is, right. So 0:14:25.960 --> 0:14:27.800 I learned from all the young people coming up on 0:14:27.840 --> 0:14:30.960 Shark Tank as well, because as you know, anybody in business, 0:14:30.960 --> 0:14:35.040 you gotta constantly learn that. I mean, the dynamic of 0:14:35.080 --> 0:14:37.840 business is changing every single day, right especiating to me 0:14:37.880 --> 0:14:39.560 too sometimes when I'll watch it, because I'll be like, 0:14:40.080 --> 0:14:42.040 that's a great idea when they're pitching, and then y'all 0:14:42.240 --> 0:14:45.440 would be like, I'm out. You know a lot of 0:14:45.440 --> 0:14:48.320 times we're all because of the person. We don't like 0:14:48.480 --> 0:14:50.440 the person. See a lot of people want to have 0:14:50.440 --> 0:14:52.720 with this great business idea, but if we don't like you, 0:14:53.080 --> 0:14:55.120 So whether you're going today and you're going to get 0:14:55.120 --> 0:14:57.240 a job somewhere or you're going to get an investment, 0:14:57.560 --> 0:15:01.000 can I stand sitting next to you for eight hours 0:15:01.000 --> 0:15:03.200 a day, five days a week, but maybe the next 0:15:03.240 --> 0:15:05.000 five years of my life. I don't If I don't 0:15:05.040 --> 0:15:07.840 like you, it's not gonna work. That's a great, a 0:15:07.960 --> 0:15:09.480 great point. And I think people will look at you 0:15:09.480 --> 0:15:11.280 and be like, well, that's because you already got money 0:15:11.640 --> 0:15:13.920 and you got them with them. But no, I think 0:15:13.920 --> 0:15:15.680 even when you're young and you don't have it, I 0:15:15.680 --> 0:15:19.800 think character matters more than whatever that idea. You can't listen. 0:15:19.800 --> 0:15:21.520 You can be the geek all you want, but I 0:15:21.560 --> 0:15:23.000 don't need to sit next to you. I'll just give 0:15:23.000 --> 0:15:25.000 you as a virtual assistant. You know, I don't never 0:15:25.120 --> 0:15:27.560 need to talk to you. But it's being a problem solving. 0:15:27.560 --> 0:15:28.760 You want to walk in the room. We all know 0:15:28.800 --> 0:15:30.480 people who walk in the room and they always got 0:15:30.560 --> 0:15:33.160 a problem. Yes, right, And we also know the people 0:15:33.160 --> 0:15:35.400 coming room. They're always smiling, they're always trying to tell you, yo, 0:15:35.520 --> 0:15:37.520 here's how we're gonna figure this thing out. And those 0:15:37.560 --> 0:15:39.280 are the people that you want to be around, whether 0:15:39.320 --> 0:15:41.280 you are employing them or you want to have an 0:15:41.320 --> 0:15:43.640 investment with them. We got more with Damon John when 0:15:43.640 --> 0:15:45.760 we come back, don't move. It's the breakfast Club. Good morning, 0:15:46.120 --> 0:15:53.520 the Breakfast Club, just wring. Everybody is DJ Envy, Angela Yee, Charlomagne, 0:15:53.560 --> 0:15:55.440 the guy. We are the Breakfast club. We have Damon 0:15:55.520 --> 0:15:57.800 John in the building. Charlomagne No. In the song of 0:15:57.880 --> 0:15:59.960 Power of Words, you say that the seven thousand words 0:16:00.040 --> 0:16:02.400 said they dictate our life. So what are the top 0:16:02.400 --> 0:16:04.960 five words you use on a daily basically like maintain 0:16:05.000 --> 0:16:07.840 a positive mindset? I wouldn't know if the top five, 0:16:07.880 --> 0:16:09.520 but you know I'm using the words love, I'm using 0:16:09.520 --> 0:16:18.320 the word power, excel, grow, scale, um, you know, money, family, health, invest, wisdom, invest. Yeah, 0:16:18.360 --> 0:16:20.200 it's true. If there's one hundred thousand words in the 0:16:20.200 --> 0:16:22.480 English language and we only use around five to seven 0:16:22.480 --> 0:16:24.640 thousand of them, if every one of them is can't, 0:16:24.720 --> 0:16:27.440 won't or nobody loves us, can't get it done, then 0:16:27.720 --> 0:16:29.800 nobody's gonna love you absolutely. Now. You also have a 0:16:29.840 --> 0:16:32.840 song about haters on the album Yeah, you feel like 0:16:32.840 --> 0:16:36.160 you have haters still at this point in time.

Mark Keuban really hates you. 0:16:40.800 --> 0:16:42.800 Mark Cuban hates me because he always says he's the 0:16:42.880 --> 0:16:45.440 luckiest man on the planet. He alway says somebody's gonna 0:16:45.440 --> 0:16:47.000 be the luckiest man, glad it's him, but he knows 0:16:47.000 --> 0:16:49.800 it's me. Man, I don't believe in luck. You don't 0:16:49.800 --> 0:16:52.440 believe in luck. It's right because it is this desire 0:16:52.480 --> 0:16:56.080 and opportunity meets you know, drive, you know. But but yeah, 0:16:56.160 --> 0:16:57.920 now Mark hates me.
