Speaker 1: Everyone, Welcome to another episode of The Market Disruptor Show.
Speaker 1: And I am sitting down today with one of my
Speaker 1: good friends, Jake Doocey. Um. I've done a few videos
Speaker 1: on his channel. We've gotten to know each other really well,
Speaker 1: and I am so happy to bring him and introduce
Speaker 1: him to you guys today. Uh, A lot of good
Speaker 1: stuff we're gonna talk about. Jake, Welcome to the show. Hey,
Speaker 1: thanks for having me Mark. Yeah. So you know, Jacob,
Speaker 1: We've we've talked quite a bit, We've done some stuff together. UM.
Speaker 1: You you have a very interesting story that I want
Speaker 1: you to dig into a little bit. But I know
Speaker 1: you spend a lot of time on the personal development side,
Speaker 1: which is super important. UM. I talk a lot about
Speaker 1: a lot of training that I've done really is about
Speaker 1: the mental side of investing, because the mental side is
Speaker 1: where we always get an edge, no matter if it's
Speaker 1: sports or business or investing. So I talk a lot
Speaker 1: about that, and so I'm interested to talk to you
Speaker 1: about the mental side of that. Um. But also, UM,
Speaker 1: you have been interviewing NonStop some of the best guys
Speaker 1: in the industry, and so I'm interested to learn what
Speaker 1: some of the secrets that you've been picking up and
Speaker 1: then I know you're really focused on, uh specifically kind
Speaker 1: of like mining stocks, uranium, silver, things like that. So
Speaker 1: I want to get into some of that, some predictions
Speaker 1: what you're looking at, where you think things are going.
Speaker 1: So those are some topics that will cover. But um,
Speaker 1: just give us a real quick backstory on your real
Speaker 1: quick You have a pretty interesting story, which I love,
Speaker 1: and just real quick. The reason why I love that
Speaker 1: is because I believe American was built on individualism and
Speaker 1: it's that we are two different people that makes this
Speaker 1: country great because you have different life experiences. I have
Speaker 1: different life experiences, and so it gives us um ways
Speaker 1: to see things differently, which then means we have different
Speaker 1: problems that we see, which means we bring different solutions.
Speaker 1: And so you definitely have a different story. So let's
Speaker 1: let's hear it real quick. Hey, just a real quick
Speaker 1: interrupt to let you know that this video is brought
Speaker 1: to you add free by block Fire. Now they're giving
Speaker 1: you the ability to hodal your bitcoin and your crypto
Speaker 1: as it goes up in value, and at the same
Speaker 1: time you can earn high yielding interest on it, so
Speaker 1: you can basically hold it for all the upside potential
Speaker 1: and then you can make cash flow off of it
Speaker 1: at the exact same time. Now, opening accounts super fast,
Speaker 1: super simple, and they've offered to give me up the
Speaker 1: two fifty dollars for every sign up, but I told them,
Speaker 1: you know what, let's give it back to you. So
Speaker 1: you can now go and you can get the two
Speaker 1: fifty dollars whenever you set up your account, and always
Speaker 1: to do is just check the link in the description
Speaker 1: for details, set up an account, super quick and easy,
Speaker 1: and turn up to two d and fifty dollars brought
Speaker 1: to you by block fire. So check them out. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that was a nice way of saying I'm a weirdo, right,
Speaker 1: Like I'm I'm interested in in so many things, right
Speaker 1: and now I'm just joking. But what I was saying was, um, yeah, man,
Speaker 1: I think that at the core, you're right. You know,
Speaker 1: I've been in the personal development industry for the last
Speaker 1: eight years. I when I was nineteen years old, I
Speaker 1: was a freshman in economics class. My dad showed me
Speaker 1: how the financial system worked during Thanksgiving break freshman year
Speaker 1: of college. And his hair was like all crazy and
Speaker 1: like he just like got red pilled into the matrix
Speaker 1: and was like, oh my gosh, like everything I've done
Speaker 1: and all my taxpayer money in this system I bought
Speaker 1: into is you know, it's a frod. And so I
Speaker 1: went back to class economics and I asked my teacher
Speaker 1: why we couldn't audit the Federal Reserve, and so he
Speaker 1: basically told me to shut up, memorize my textbook. We've
Speaker 1: gotten like a legitimate fight in class, and everyone in
Speaker 1: class wanted me to shut up so they could memorize
Speaker 1: their textbook for their exam too, And so I dropped
Speaker 1: out of college shortly thereafter. Kind of was very angry
Speaker 1: about everything that was happening in the world. You know,
Speaker 1: once I kind of woke up to it, and I
Speaker 1: think that happens a lot when you really see how
Speaker 1: much of a Ponzi scheme this entire financial and political
Speaker 1: system is. And so I decided to drop out of college.
Speaker 1: Everyone said it was crazy, but my dad said, you
Speaker 1: know you should do it. This whole system you're waking up, go,
Speaker 1: how you know, go? So I went in bagabond just
Speaker 1: kind of cruised around and tried to discover what the
Speaker 1: purpose of my life was about. I called the book
Speaker 1: into the Win my six month journey wandering the world
Speaker 1: for life's purpose. So I wrote that book when I
Speaker 1: was like one, and Noma published it. So I self published,
Speaker 1: but I sold twenty thou copies the first ten thousand,
Speaker 1: largely out of the trunk of my car and grilla marketing.
Speaker 1: I would go to every farmer's market, different day of
Speaker 1: the week, rent tables at college campuses, and so that
Speaker 1: was what I did for the last ten years. And
Speaker 1: the reason that's an amazing number. Yeah, we sold a
Speaker 1: lot of that books, man a lot. And then I
Speaker 1: was the first motivational speaker ever on bands Warp Tour,
Speaker 1: which was the largest running you know, you should nod
Speaker 1: your head like you know what it is. So um yeah,
Speaker 1: the at the time, I grew up in southern California. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so at the time, Kevin lyman Um was my manager
Speaker 1: at the time, and so he's the he's the owner,
Speaker 1: or was the owner. It's not in existent anymore, but
Speaker 1: ran for twenty five years. So I was their motivational
Speaker 1: speaker and at my wife and I sold the books
Speaker 1: all over and that was what we did. I didn't
Speaker 1: use the internet, didn't know anything about the internet, and Um,
Speaker 1: you know, I was in the personal development industry because
Speaker 1: you know, once you look into the system more and
Speaker 1: you see Edward Burnet's is kind of the father of
Speaker 1: modern PR. He's the nephew of Sigmund Freud. Used Sigmund
Speaker 1: Freud's discoveries about the subconscious to you know, create this
Speaker 1: modern PR system. And so I believe, at the core,
Speaker 1: basically all my anger, I was able to redirect it
Speaker 1: and do kind of spiritually awakening, finding my purpose. And
Speaker 1: I believe that when we can also wake up mentally
Speaker 1: and we realized, we we break free from all this
Speaker 1: conditioning of the world, you know, taught to believe we
Speaker 1: aren't good enough, smart enough, give up all of our
Speaker 1: authority and power to sources and things outside of ourselves.
Speaker 1: And so that's been my focus. And then, um, my
Speaker 1: business I went online and that took off. Main Channel's
Speaker 1: got six hundred thousand subs. Personal development stuff totally different
Speaker 1: than finance and not it's not totally different. We're going
Speaker 1: to tie that back to together, but go ahead and
Speaker 1: keep going. No, but that's it, man. And then eight
Speaker 1: months ago, you know, I was doing all my investing
Speaker 1: on the side, and I had this other passion. You
Speaker 1: know that originally woke me up, which was you know,
Speaker 1: macroeconomics and social politicals. Yeah, system investing commodities, and so
Speaker 1: I started this channel and that's how you and I met,
Speaker 1: you know, and it ended up taking off in the
Speaker 1: last eight months. But yeah, that's kind of a long story. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a great story. So it's a great story. And
Speaker 1: so for everybody listening. You may not be into this
Speaker 1: non non new new like personal development stuff, but listen, man,
Speaker 1: it is so important as I As I said in
Speaker 1: the intro, like the mental edge is what separates the
Speaker 1: elite and any discipline, and so that's why I spent
Speaker 1: a lot of time doing training for my audience on
Speaker 1: the mental side of investing. So I want to get
Speaker 1: into that because without it, it doesn't matter what you're doing,
Speaker 1: you're not gonna succeed. So we'll tie that back together.
Speaker 1: But I want to go backwards real quick. You said
Speaker 1: that your dad red pilled you, So, uh, for anyone
Speaker 1: who doesn't know at this point, it's a matrix reference, right,
Speaker 1: the blue or the red pill. The red pill you
Speaker 1: see the whole world that you don't want to see,
Speaker 1: and once you see it, you can't un see it unfortunately. Right,
Speaker 1: that's the story that everybody tells, and I've witnessed that.
Speaker 1: But I'm curious if you can remember what was like
Speaker 1: what what what was it that he told you or
Speaker 1: what was your big like epiphany if you if you
Speaker 1: can remember like one thing or a couple of things
Speaker 1: that were like shocking. That was that that red pill
Speaker 1: moment um, the Federal Reserve and the creation of the
Speaker 1: Federal Reserve, you know, nineteen thirteen, and the fact that
Speaker 1: you know they essentially their private corporation that essentially as
Speaker 1: shareholders and there you know, they're they're using it to
Speaker 1: enslave the entire world, you know. And so at the
Speaker 1: court was that and how the print print money out
Speaker 1: of thin air or something? Yeah, like you said when
Speaker 1: you did your Cambridge House International interview, what was the
Speaker 1: title of that. It was like you said that fiat
Speaker 1: currency has created, you know, the majority of all the
Speaker 1: problems in the world, Like at the courts that and
Speaker 1: it's malicious what they're doing. You know, they know this
Speaker 1: is not you can't do this forever. They know that.
Speaker 1: And so it was that, you know, and and at
Speaker 1: the time it just made me angry but then that
Speaker 1: led me to personal development and trying to find more
Speaker 1: optimism and purpose in life. And so you know, I
Speaker 1: think they're both important. Yeah, what's funny is, um I
Speaker 1: have I have two daughters and my youngest is eleven.
Speaker 1: But it was a couple of years ago. She might
Speaker 1: have been nine, Um, nine or ten. Maybe we're driving
Speaker 1: in the car and uh, my kids don't like it
Speaker 1: when I talk about this stuff too much. They like
Speaker 1: roll their eyes. But she was, like, she was sitting
Speaker 1: next to me in the car front seat and I
Speaker 1: was talking to her about the banking system. I was
Speaker 1: talking to her about the photo reserve and how um
Speaker 1: they basically print money out of thin air and the
Speaker 1: more they print it takes value out of other people's
Speaker 1: bank accounts and this and that, right, And she looks
Speaker 1: over and she's like, why don't people know about this?
Speaker 1: Like why are people okay with that? And I'm just
Speaker 1: like it was just for her to have that epiphany
Speaker 1: and for her to say that at nine or ten
Speaker 1: years old, um was was pretty amazing. So uh yeah,
Speaker 1: when you learn about the inner workings, it's pretty amazing. Right.
Speaker 1: So that's that's pretty cool moment. So thanks for sharing that. So,
Speaker 1: um that led you down this path. Now you learned
Speaker 1: about the financial system. You were in an economics class,
Speaker 1: which is obviously to learn about money right at the economy.
Speaker 1: But then you left money to go into personal development,
Speaker 1: which is okay, right. I mean, that's the base of
Speaker 1: of I guess, driving us to become better in all
Speaker 1: areas of life. So tell me how that transition went
Speaker 1: from being focused on money, being shocked about money, and
Speaker 1: then going away from money. Um, you know, basically I didn't.
Speaker 1: I knew that I didn't want to be part of
Speaker 1: the system, and that's what I was training myself to do.
Speaker 1: And you know, it's ten years later, it's worked out
Speaker 1: so well with multiple businesses that have done really well
Speaker 1: and leverage the internet. But it was almost like the
Speaker 1: universe brought me to them. I just I always say
Speaker 1: it's better to appear strange to others than to be
Speaker 1: a stranger to yourself. And it was either, you know,
Speaker 1: I was gonna go get do my life and just
Speaker 1: do little random hustle jobs or be a yoga teacher.
Speaker 1: I knew I didn't want to go back to school
Speaker 1: and go I thought I was gonna major in economics,
Speaker 1: and I don't I would go be a salesperson for
Speaker 1: some company, you know, UM, And I realized that I
Speaker 1: wanted to do the things that you know, it inspired me.
Speaker 1: And at first it was backpacking around the world and
Speaker 1: writing a book about it. And then you know, I
Speaker 1: didn't know where that was leading. Like I said, no
Speaker 1: one would publish my books. So I printed five thousand
Speaker 1: copies and I filled my whole sedan up with my
Speaker 1: boxes of books and I just sold them. And then
Speaker 1: that led to selling enough where you know, I did
Speaker 1: a ted X talk and then that led to meeting
Speaker 1: Jack Campfield and my book agent, which led to getting
Speaker 1: a book deal with paying in random house, which you know,
Speaker 1: at twenty two years old, my books were like on
Speaker 1: the shelf. And then like that led to another book,
Speaker 1: which led to the Internet. And and I can't say
Speaker 1: I planned it all, but I'm now looking back and
Speaker 1: studying people like you and Robert Kiwasaki and all these things,
Speaker 1: like you need to have a business to escape this
Speaker 1: system in this world. Um, having um constantly being able
Speaker 1: to raise your income ceiling is really essential. And then also, um,
Speaker 1: you know, if you can have a scalable business. But
Speaker 1: we've all that leverages the Internet. We've seen the government
Speaker 1: take people's businesses away, and so that's kind of what happened. Um,
Speaker 1: I wish I could say I was like twenty years
Speaker 1: old and I was like, you know, the perfect way
Speaker 1: to do your business is to do all these things
Speaker 1: and then let you're gonna leverage youtubeen, you're gonna write books,
Speaker 1: and like it just kind of happened whereas you know,
Speaker 1: and that's why I wanted to make my new channel, was,
Speaker 1: you know, to talk to people like you, guys that
Speaker 1: have helped me. You know, let's let's let's unpack that
Speaker 1: just a little bit, because I want there's a lesson
Speaker 1: in here that I want everybody to get. And so
Speaker 1: you've you've become a great investor and you talked to
Speaker 1: some of the highest level investors in the world, and
Speaker 1: there's a lot of information I want to get from
Speaker 1: you on that regard. So everybody, painted everybody listening right now,
Speaker 1: make sure you stay tuned for that. But there's a
Speaker 1: lesson right here that I kind of want to unpack,
Speaker 1: and so um we you and I we've had several
Speaker 1: conversations right where, um, I see so many people coming
Speaker 1: into my world that UM want to learn about investing,
Speaker 1: that they think they can quit their job and become
Speaker 1: a full time investor. And we've talked about how really
Speaker 1: we need to focus on wealth creation first. Now you
Speaker 1: did that, but you talk about it like you just
Speaker 1: happened into it, right, But you didn't really write you
Speaker 1: you were given opportunities, but you continue to take advantage
Speaker 1: of those opportunities. People have opportunities every day that they
Speaker 1: don't take, they don't say yes to, they don't take
Speaker 1: advantage of. So you were like a happy, go lucky like,
Speaker 1: oh I just kind of shucks, I got into this,
Speaker 1: but not really right because you continue to push you
Speaker 1: continue to do that. UM. I mean do you see
Speaker 1: it that way? I mean that that's one question. The
Speaker 1: second question I would say is, UM, do you see
Speaker 1: it that it wasn't just happenstance? I mean, you were,
Speaker 1: you know, were actively taking action on that building that out.
Speaker 1: But also the other thing I would ask you is, UM,
Speaker 1: you didn't know in advance that you wanted to have
Speaker 1: this YouTube channel and start interviewing investors. UM, but you
Speaker 1: were open to those opportunities of building that business out
Speaker 1: and kind of following where those passions took you. So
Speaker 1: tell me how those two things kind of came together. Yeah,
Speaker 1: to be honest, it all came from YouTube. At first.
Speaker 1: When I went I did all the platforms with my
Speaker 1: personal development and my books and everything. But um, then
Speaker 1: I started using YouTube, and you know, my main channel
Speaker 1: got six hundred thousand subscribers in a couple of years,
Speaker 1: and that led to millions of website visits and I
Speaker 1: learned how it worked. And so first of all, I
Speaker 1: would say that, you know, because then I was just
Speaker 1: able to apply the same model over But but but
Speaker 1: it's but it started with you, like finding something that
Speaker 1: you had interest in or you had passion in, and
Speaker 1: then pursuing that. Right. So I think that's where a
Speaker 1: lot of people get stuck, is like shoot on making
Speaker 1: fifteen bucks an hour or fifty bucks an how or
Speaker 1: whatever it is, and I'm stuck. I'm in a job,
Speaker 1: I'm a slave. I want to do something different. I
Speaker 1: don't know what to do. And I think the lesson
Speaker 1: here is that you didn't know that it was going
Speaker 1: to lead to here, But you knew what you were
Speaker 1: doing wasn't what you wanted, and so if you followed
Speaker 1: what your interests and passions were it would lead you
Speaker 1: to where you wanted to go. I guess that's kind
Speaker 1: of what I'm thinking, because so many people today they're
Speaker 1: stuck and they don't like where they're at, and they
Speaker 1: and they want to change, but they don't know what
Speaker 1: to do. And I think it always goes back to, well,
Speaker 1: what do you want to do? Where do you spend
Speaker 1: your time, where do your interests, what are your passions?
Speaker 1: And now figure out a way to use those to
Speaker 1: take you to the next level. And that's that's what
Speaker 1: I see that you did. Am I getting that right? Yeah?
Speaker 1: You know what always really amazed me in the working
Speaker 1: personal development, You know, with all the all the things
Speaker 1: that we've done, how few people actually even know what
Speaker 1: they I want? And I had never asked myself that
Speaker 1: question my whole life, and I think waking up to
Speaker 1: the financial system and seeing a lot of what I
Speaker 1: thought was true was wrong, And thus then it made
Speaker 1: me go, well, why why the heck are we alive?
Speaker 1: Might as well do something that you care about? And
Speaker 1: I think it goes back to what you said is
Speaker 1: individuality and thinking for ourselves. You know, it's almost become
Speaker 1: trendy after Steve jobs said to follow your passion, and
Speaker 1: is Stanford peach Stanford speech. Excuse me? There were people
Speaker 1: that said, no, don't follow your passion. You know, that
Speaker 1: doesn't make you any money. You have to think strategic,
Speaker 1: and it's like good luck trying to like spend fifteen
Speaker 1: years building a business that you don't have any passion
Speaker 1: or interest in. Yeah, it won't work. So I think
Speaker 1: that's that number one. You know. It was like, that's
Speaker 1: what changed my life is asking myself, Yeah, what do
Speaker 1: I really want? And it was personal development, studying psychology,
Speaker 1: the subconscious mind. How do we have the hop how
Speaker 1: do we have the operating system that controls our whole
Speaker 1: life with all of our habits, How we interact with money,
Speaker 1: what we do and do not achieve in our life,
Speaker 1: how we think of ourselves. You know. That led me
Speaker 1: down that rabbit hole and ended up writing books and
Speaker 1: it turned into something. But you're right, I mean, it's
Speaker 1: I guess step number one is we've got to reclaim
Speaker 1: our sovereignty, right, Yeah, So I just want to nail
Speaker 1: this topic home and then we'll move on. But so
Speaker 1: the lesson that I'm seeing, Um, there's a show that
Speaker 1: I'm watching with my kids right now. It's an amazing
Speaker 1: show and everybody should go watch it. I might have
Speaker 1: mentioned to you the other day Undercover Billionaire. I don't
Speaker 1: know if I mentioned to you that. Yeah, you were
Speaker 1: telling me all about it. So anybody watching this that's
Speaker 1: interested in what we're talking about right now, just go
Speaker 1: onto your whatever platform and just search for Undercovered Billionaire
Speaker 1: and watch that. I'm not going to go deep into that,
Speaker 1: but everybody should go watch it if you're interested in
Speaker 1: creating wealth. But anyway, back to the lesson that I
Speaker 1: want to nail down here is that one you chased
Speaker 1: your passion. Now at individuals, we all have different passions
Speaker 1: and we all see different problems. A couple of things
Speaker 1: that are important with that one is that, Um, if
Speaker 1: you're not passionate about it, as you said, you're never
Speaker 1: going to put the amount of time in that's required.
Speaker 1: And it's not easy to succeed in anything, and so
Speaker 1: it requires a lot of time and effort. And if
Speaker 1: you don't love it, you won't ever be able to
Speaker 1: put the time and effort and required to do it.
Speaker 1: So that's why I have to start with your passion. Now, Um,
Speaker 1: you might have a bunch of different passions. So for me,
Speaker 1: surfing is a passion big time. I want to surf
Speaker 1: all the time. Um, but I also love business. I
Speaker 1: also love investing so well, even though surfings passion is
Speaker 1: probably the best way to make money, so why don't
Speaker 1: I focus on another passion that has a better path.
Speaker 1: So there is some strategy there, because as humans, right,
Speaker 1: we should have lots of interest and passions. So that's
Speaker 1: that's the less that's the lesson I want to pull
Speaker 1: out of what you're saying because it's super important. The
Speaker 1: other thing that I would say is that a lot
Speaker 1: of times people are waiting for that boat to come in.
Speaker 1: That's the quote, right, waiting for my boat to come in.
Speaker 1: You didn't sit around and wait for a book deal
Speaker 1: and someone to give you money to write a book. No,
Speaker 1: you went and wrote the book, put them in your
Speaker 1: frigging trunk and drove around the country and sold them yourself.
Speaker 1: And so what I love the quote is if your
Speaker 1: boat isn't coming in, swim out and get that boat.
Speaker 1: And so that's what you did. And so that's the
Speaker 1: lesson that I that I'm hearing, and it encourages me
Speaker 1: and I want more people to to hear that. So
Speaker 1: am I getting that all right? Yeah? I mean I
Speaker 1: agree with everything you're saying. You know, I learned from
Speaker 1: Napoleon Hills book Thinking Grew Rich. He goes through the
Speaker 1: Latin definition of the word decide, and it's to kill
Speaker 1: off of any other alternatives, to to kill off any
Speaker 1: all other outs d side. And you know, I think
Speaker 1: that's obviously life changing at least I found. And for me,
Speaker 1: I was kind of thinking about what you said that
Speaker 1: I think it just goes to a couple of things, right,
Speaker 1: you said there's numerous passions or areas of interest. It
Speaker 1: might be that, um, you know, you have something that's
Speaker 1: in landscaping, or it might be something in finance, or
Speaker 1: something in massage. But then I think the next question,
Speaker 1: you know, I guess to be more uh grounded in it,
Speaker 1: is is there a sellable market in it? Um? Then
Speaker 1: the next question is, are you can you ultimately um
Speaker 1: sell this without directly trading your your time for money?
Speaker 1: Is there a scalable element to it? And then can
Speaker 1: you use the internet for an additional scalable element? And thankfully,
Speaker 1: uh you're able to do that with all I mean,
Speaker 1: technically you could do it with surfing. I mean there
Speaker 1: are ways to do it. I mean you could build
Speaker 1: a you know, so obviously there's there's more money and
Speaker 1: strategically investing and things like that. But yeah, I think
Speaker 1: those are important things that that helped me a lot.
Speaker 1: There's a whole lesson just in that. And if anybody
Speaker 1: wants to know more about that, specifically identifying businesses, building
Speaker 1: that out, building up passions, leave comments down below, and
Speaker 1: maybe Jake and I will get back together and we
Speaker 1: can just talk just about that. This show isn't gonna
Speaker 1: be spent talking about that, but leave comments, send me
Speaker 1: messages if you want us to dig in. Maybe we'll
Speaker 1: do another one talking about that. But um so, moving
Speaker 1: on a little bit from there, I'll say one more thing.
Speaker 1: If you don't know what your passions are, you don't
Speaker 1: have enough passions, then you need to go expand your world.
Speaker 1: And so Jake went and traveled the world. And so
Speaker 1: because he went and traveled the world, because he was
Speaker 1: in college, he was out of college, he read books,
Speaker 1: he traveled the world. It expanded his worldview, which then
Speaker 1: gave him more interests and more passions. And so if
Speaker 1: you find yourself like I don't have an interest for passions,
Speaker 1: Turn the freaking TV off, put your phone down, start
Speaker 1: reading books, start driving, even just in your local area
Speaker 1: like you have to, like, start getting experiences. Now moving
Speaker 1: on from that, UM, I can tell that you can
Speaker 1: really grab information and then and synthesize it very well. Um,
Speaker 1: and then put out new information. And I can see
Speaker 1: that because of how your dad gave you information and
Speaker 1: you synthesize it and it changed your worldview. UM, and
Speaker 1: you've continued to move on from there. So UM, Now,
Speaker 1: the last you said eight months, you've you started a
Speaker 1: second channel. I love Prosperity. I'm gonna link to it
Speaker 1: down below. Everyone should watch it. But you've been interviewing
Speaker 1: some of the highest level investors in the game, mainly
Speaker 1: around mining stocks and stuff like that. I think. But
Speaker 1: I've built my career on a quote that I think
Speaker 1: Tony Robbins said that success leaves clues. So I'm always
Speaker 1: trying to Hey, just another quick interruption to let you
Speaker 1: know that this video it's brought to you add free

Speaker 1: is the future of finance. Just check the link in
Speaker 1: the description for all the details of how to claim
Speaker 1: your two fifty dollars today. Find um. I'm always trying
Speaker 1: to aud successful people to find out what I can
Speaker 1: learn from them. Right, so you've been interviewing these people,
Speaker 1: You've been synthesizing this data. I'm just curious, one, how
Speaker 1: much of an impact do you think that's made on
Speaker 1: your life over the last whatever six eight months? And
Speaker 1: maybe what a couple of some of the lessons that
Speaker 1: maybe you think that you've learned. Yeah, man, my whole life,
Speaker 1: to be honest, ever since I dropped out of college
Speaker 1: was changed by mentors um in the personal development industry.
Speaker 1: It was Bob Proctor and Jack Canfield, my agent, Bill Gladstone,
Speaker 1: those three people and I and I was so young
Speaker 1: that I think, you know, I didn't even try to
Speaker 1: pretend like I knew what I was doing. I would say,
Speaker 1: I have so much energy, you know, I have that
Speaker 1: competitive stuff from sports, but I have no idea what
Speaker 1: do I do? What do I do? Just tell me
Speaker 1: what to do and I'll do it. And Bob Procter
Speaker 1: used to say that, um, follow what or follow what
Speaker 1: I'm doing until you find out that I don't know
Speaker 1: what I'm talking about or I'm lying, and I do
Speaker 1: know what I'm talking about, you know. And so that
Speaker 1: was always my path and it really changed my life.
Speaker 1: You know. All throughout I just would find the top
Speaker 1: one percent and try to develop a relationship where you know,
Speaker 1: they wanted to help. And so, um, when I started
Speaker 1: the Prosperity Channel, I really started that because I was
Speaker 1: investing heavy on my own and I was like, this
Speaker 1: is a whole another passion that doesn't really make sense
Speaker 1: to put content out with my main brand, um, because
Speaker 1: it's different types of content, and I had no idea
Speaker 1: it was going to take off. I was like, I
Speaker 1: could probably just leverage my existing you know, brand on
Speaker 1: YouTube to land some huge interviews, you know, and so, um,
Speaker 1: you know, I've learned a lot about silver, I've learned
Speaker 1: a lot about um uranium. I've learned a lot about
Speaker 1: trying to control my emotions better, you know, like you said,
Speaker 1: you know, one of the investing you know, one of
Speaker 1: the most important things is still the mindset. And so
Speaker 1: I've it's interesting my personal development journey, but then getting
Speaker 1: a real world experiencing with it, you know, going through
Speaker 1: you know, volatile markets obviously you know crypto, silver, uranium, um,
Speaker 1: these are pretty volatile markets. So I've learned a lot
Speaker 1: about trying to control my emotions. I learned about putting
Speaker 1: proper asset allocations, which has greatly diminished my emotional instability. Uh.
Speaker 1: And so I've learned a lot. Let's talk about that. So, um,
Speaker 1: you've you've learned a lot from them about handling your
Speaker 1: emotions and how even asset allocation helped you handle your emotions.
Speaker 1: And so, uh, maybe a couple of things that they've
Speaker 1: given you, like long term perspective or patients or um
Speaker 1: by not risking it all in one instead diversifying so
Speaker 1: you're you're not so involved or what are some of
Speaker 1: the things that have helped you with that specifically, Yeah,
Speaker 1: allocation on um that I've learned from Rick Rule. Sorry,
Speaker 1: I got my son, I got the sun coming in
Speaker 1: right now from Rick Rule. I learned to before right
Speaker 1: when I started, I didn't really have I didn't even
Speaker 1: have even allocations between actual stocks within the class. And
Speaker 1: now what I've tried to do that I've learned from. Also,
Speaker 1: another guy interviewed, his name's Trader for I just used
Speaker 1: my interviews like I'm trying to get mentors, you know,
Speaker 1: and I know that's why I want to know what
Speaker 1: That's why I want to know what they're learning. And
Speaker 1: so one to five percent on all my different So
Speaker 1: like if I if I put a position into a
Speaker 1: mining stock, or I put a position into anything, I
Speaker 1: try to keep it all within one to five. A
Speaker 1: lot of my emotional I had, like I would have
Speaker 1: in my perfection. When you say one to five, you
Speaker 1: mean don't risk more than five percent of your portfolio
Speaker 1: in any one position. Mac So one one percent to
Speaker 1: five percent of your total portfolio in any one position. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's what I learned from this guy that I interviewed
Speaker 1: named Trader for that I had on and that's helped
Speaker 1: me a lot emotionally. So that's one thing that I've learned.
Speaker 1: It's also so typically on a trade, you would maybe
Speaker 1: want to risk about one percent. On a good researched investment,
Speaker 1: you might want to risk up to five percent. Is
Speaker 1: that kind of what you're saying. Yeah, that's kind of
Speaker 1: what I got out of or what I applied the
Speaker 1: way that I did it. Um, obviously I didn't learn
Speaker 1: anything ever about investing. I didn't learn anything about it
Speaker 1: in school, and you know, I realized there was good
Speaker 1: opportunities in these commodities. But learning just I think probably
Speaker 1: a healthier but that's Asian to it has helped me
Speaker 1: a lot. That's such a powerful lesson just right there. So, UM,
Speaker 1: I was just watching this documentary, really good. It's called
Speaker 1: The China Hustle, really powerful documented, well done. You should
Speaker 1: check it out, anyone should. But um, how Chinese companies
Speaker 1: were fraudulent and sucking money out of the US company markets.
Speaker 1: And the interviewed at the end these these retired people,
Speaker 1: these old old people, and they lost all their money.
Speaker 1: And this guy is like, I lost all my money.
Speaker 1: I bought the stock at nine dollars it was only
Speaker 1: a worth ten cents. Someone was done, and I was like,
Speaker 1: who would put all their money into any stock period,
Speaker 1: much less some unknown Chinese company right regardless, But like,
Speaker 1: don't they know you don't risk more than five percent
Speaker 1: of your portfolio and anyone stock. And so I was
Speaker 1: just watching this just a couple it's going. That was
Speaker 1: the thought I had. Exactly what you're saying. And I've
Speaker 1: seen the same thing. Um. I wrote a cryptocurrency newsletter
Speaker 1: for four years and we put out over over twenty calls.
Speaker 1: That went up a percent, but people were still losing
Speaker 1: money and it was because of that allocation piece. So
Speaker 1: it's super powerful. But go ahead and keep going. What else?
Speaker 1: What else? Maybe a couple of You're right, man, I
Speaker 1: mean that's uh, it's been a game change. It's actually
Speaker 1: I've actually made more money since i've I've reallocated properly
Speaker 1: as well. Um, So you know it's think by people
Speaker 1: like you are important is because you know, we don't
Speaker 1: know any of this stuff. So I'd say that's really
Speaker 1: changed my life then. Also, so I was number one,
Speaker 1: was you know by physical silver and gold bullying was
Speaker 1: how I ever made my first investment into anything other
Speaker 1: than fiat currency, and I invested primarily in silver over gold,
Speaker 1: and you know, in hindsight, looking back at it, I
Speaker 1: really did it at first because my bullying dealer, I
Speaker 1: didn't know that much about it, and he said, I'm
Speaker 1: not letting you buy gold. Silver just has so much
Speaker 1: upside was like sixteen bucks, you know, and he's so
Speaker 1: he said to be there. So learning a little bit
Speaker 1: in real world um quote unquote investment about supply and demand.
Speaker 1: Then when I got more interested, um in investing into
Speaker 1: mining stocks, in silver mining stocks because of the upside.
Speaker 1: That's why I learned more about uranium. And after March
Speaker 1: they were so cheap. So that's really changed my life.
Speaker 1: I've done amazing in in uranium. I mean, anyone's done
Speaker 1: amazing in uranium. I mean a lot of these stocks
Speaker 1: have went up two it's February now, since December. I
Speaker 1: mean some of them went three since December. And I'm
Speaker 1: not talking the year before, in the last two months,
Speaker 1: and so like that's kind of dumb luck, you know.
Speaker 1: It's like I just kind of got into it, and
Speaker 1: then I started interviewing a bunch of people, and that's
Speaker 1: been amazing, is having uranium exposure, Um talking to other
Speaker 1: Can we talk about that uranium for a minute. So, UM, yeah,
Speaker 1: I know you follow that quite a bit. I know
Speaker 1: you've talked to a bunch of uranium people, and it's
Speaker 1: a market that I kind of have my eye on.
Speaker 1: I've looked at a little bit, um, And so it
Speaker 1: seems like it seems like uranium is or nuclear power,
Speaker 1: I should say, in my opinion, seems like it's the
Speaker 1: only viable option for us moving forward. If we want
Speaker 1: clean energy, um, carbon free energy, I should say, Right,
Speaker 1: we have clean natural gas, and I would imagine we
Speaker 1: could make it cleaner if we invested a little bit
Speaker 1: of money into it. But if we want to go whatever,
Speaker 1: carbon free or or whatever, nuclear seems to be the
Speaker 1: only option. But at the same time, it seems it's
Speaker 1: very hated today. And I understand we want to buy
Speaker 1: what's hated when it has potential upside, right, get there first.
Speaker 1: But it seems to me that uranium is still in
Speaker 1: the downward hated model. And and what I mean by that,
Speaker 1: I know you just left California me too. Um. We
Speaker 1: had three nuclear reactors to have been shut down. There's
Speaker 1: still another one schedule to be shut down. So it
Speaker 1: seems like most countries are still scheduling to shut the
Speaker 1: nuclear reactors down. Um are other countries opening them up
Speaker 1: very fast? Like, how do you see that hated and
Speaker 1: supply demand thing working out? If if you've figured it out, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's uh, it's hated maybe on a more uh social level,
Speaker 1: but on a political level. It's actually one of the
Speaker 1: only things that Democrats and Republicans agree on. And that's because,
Speaker 1: of course, is the amount of UM electrical needs that
Speaker 1: our world has that are going to keep going up
Speaker 1: or seeing instability and in grids in many places in
Speaker 1: the world, and nuclear is the only viable option. China
Speaker 1: pollutes a lot, China knows they need to go more nuclear.
Speaker 1: Japan has just talked recently about bringing all the reactors
Speaker 1: back online. It's needed just that. Yeah, it's also twenty
Speaker 1: of the United States based power load that's going to
Speaker 1: increase UM. You know, And the story doesn't seem like
Speaker 1: the U. S and I know, like Germany they're like
Speaker 1: trying to shut down nuclear reactors or you think you're
Speaker 1: starting to see they're not gonna be They're not. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but they're not going to be able to twin you
Speaker 1: cannot go down on the baseload. Most of the world
Speaker 1: is closer to ten percent. From from what I've learned
Speaker 1: from all the people that I've been uh interviewing and
Speaker 1: and and such, that's a lot, you know, And there's
Speaker 1: a supply and demand deficit story that you know is
Speaker 1: a different story, but it's needed. It's one of you know,
Speaker 1: Republicans obviously they're down for whatever types of energy, whereas
Speaker 1: Democrats have been more conservative and saying they want to
Speaker 1: renewable and so you know, they're not as hey, we're
Speaker 1: doing natural gas. They prefer to avoid that, but they're
Speaker 1: on board with with nuclear as well. There's dozens and dozens.
Speaker 1: I sent you a chart a long time ago about
Speaker 1: every single nuclear reactor that's being built or planning to
Speaker 1: go online. By It's crazy what I saw was within
Speaker 1: this decade by the end of twenty um the biggest
Speaker 1: company is um Kaza Prom and it's like the biggest
Speaker 1: that's the that's the Russian company, and they've got all,
Speaker 1: you know, the biggest producer in the world. It said
Speaker 1: that and I'm butchering their name and it said, uh
Speaker 1: KP is their tick or symbol. That two more of
Speaker 1: them of their all of their production need to come
Speaker 1: online this decade to meet the coming um demand for
Speaker 1: nuclear and the price is only thirty bucks. It needs
Speaker 1: to go to about fifty or so to incentivize more
Speaker 1: minds to come online because it's about fifty dollars with
Speaker 1: financing or so per pound to bring more uranium on online.
Speaker 1: And so whether some people in the public don't like
Speaker 1: it or not, its the fact is it's gonna be
Speaker 1: It's gonna be needed, and it's a misunderstood subject, you know.
Speaker 1: So I think as people understand it, it's actually actually
Speaker 1: one of the only things where you see Democrats and
Speaker 1: Republicans agreeing on, you know, it's one of the only things.
Speaker 1: And so um, I think that's gonna be changing drastically,
Speaker 1: especially as you know, there's more and more third world
Speaker 1: countries that want more and more of the luxuries of
Speaker 1: the first world. That is a you know, more more
Speaker 1: the electrification of the world. And one of the most
Speaker 1: or the most import important component of the electrification of
Speaker 1: the world and that we have, especially on a safety level,
Speaker 1: is because so many countries want to lower their carbon emissions.
Speaker 1: I mean China's I think they're the biggest polluter in
Speaker 1: the world. They've they've agreed because they've got people just
Speaker 1: like dropping dead in the street in China, like you
Speaker 1: do not know, their air quality is so bad and
Speaker 1: they've been using coal and um, so they know that,
Speaker 1: like they can't just like have people dropping dead in
Speaker 1: the streets. And when it was really bad, when when
Speaker 1: I know, when I was younger, there's like certain days
Speaker 1: where you weren't allowed to go out side, and like,
Speaker 1: you know, so this is just right now, it's it's
Speaker 1: it coexists perfectly with the renewables that the Democrats want,
Speaker 1: which they control both aspects, and it's something you know,
Speaker 1: Republicans also are on board with because they know it's dependable.
Speaker 1: You know, we know we're not going to have powers,
Speaker 1: you know, problem powers. Yeah, yeah, I agree. I think
Speaker 1: you know, I made a video talking about the California
Speaker 1: blackouts that happened a few months ago that went kind
Speaker 1: of viral, I think half a million views something like that,
Speaker 1: and I said it's coming for the rest of the
Speaker 1: country at that end that video. And of course now
Speaker 1: we see it happening in Texas, and the reason why
Speaker 1: it's because it's it's policy, right, So they're choosing to
Speaker 1: shut down production for renewables, but renewables aren't reliable. Renewables.
Speaker 1: It's not always sunny, the wind doesn't always blow. Sometimes
Speaker 1: it's so cold the propellers freeze up. Like it's just
Speaker 1: not reliable. Um And so you know, going back to
Speaker 1: fossil fuel is more reliable, or I think going to
Speaker 1: nuclear um So anyway, I kind of I kind of agree.
Speaker 1: I was just curious where you're at. I know, in
Speaker 1: California we still scheduled to shut one of our our
Speaker 1: third and only last one down, So but it makes
Speaker 1: sense other parts of the world will pick up the man.
Speaker 1: California has just got to get a little bit more
Speaker 1: used to losing their power on regular basis. You know,
Speaker 1: it's California. They're the most dinosaur primitive in their understanding
Speaker 1: of how to create a stable society. So you know,
Speaker 1: by the time they get back on the price of
Speaker 1: uranium is going to be a hundred bucks a hundred
Speaker 1: bucks a pound, they'll be they'll be the last to
Speaker 1: the club. Of course. Yeah, well, man, there's so much
Speaker 1: more I wanted to talk to you about, but um,
Speaker 1: I know we're running short on time. I guess The
Speaker 1: last thing I would say is, I'll just ask you
Speaker 1: a question based off that comment you made about California. UM,
Speaker 1: they do seem to be pretty backwards in their policies,
Speaker 1: and maybe, UM, maybe from your personal development world, you've
Speaker 1: learned that sometimes people aren't ready to make change until
Speaker 1: they reach rock bottom, and so maybe California does have
Speaker 1: to hit rock bottom before before there's changed. But UM,
Speaker 1: you've you've recently left California. I have as well. UM,
Speaker 1: I think we both subscribed to the policy that we
Speaker 1: should go well retreated best right, Like why would we
Speaker 1: sit here and be treated poorly and overtaxed when we
Speaker 1: can go somewhere else that we're treated better. UM. I
Speaker 1: believe that is is how the world improves in the
Speaker 1: future is through an open competition. So that um, we're
Speaker 1: we're moving to the steady trend of more totalitarianism. And
Speaker 1: no government's gonna wake up tomorrow and say we have
Speaker 1: too much power as good freedom back. No, they'll never
Speaker 1: do that, but only through competition they're gonna have to
Speaker 1: do so. For example, both of you and I have
Speaker 1: left California and we're small fish, but big fish have left.
Speaker 1: The big corporations have left. Texas is out competing, right,
Speaker 1: Nevada is out competing, and now the governor is being
Speaker 1: recalled and now to Motz put his hat in the
Speaker 1: ring and he says he'll lower state taxes down to
Speaker 1: zero present. So they've realized too many people are leaving.
Speaker 1: The governor is being recalled, and they have new policies
Speaker 1: coming back in place to bring people back. And it's
Speaker 1: that competition that can settle that. I'm curious what your
Speaker 1: thoughts are on how maybe that plays out only for
Speaker 1: the country but also for the world. Do you see
Speaker 1: that as a as a big trend that do you
Speaker 1: think could really accelerate more freedom. I guess yeah, First
Speaker 1: News will probably hold it up in courts until he's out,
Speaker 1: and he'll be like, you know, we need need to
Speaker 1: verify these are valid ideas and valid people, and so
Speaker 1: probably and I saw to that point. I saw Biden
Speaker 1: already came in and started campaigning with him and said
Speaker 1: they're gonna do everything they can to keep him in power,
Speaker 1: regardless of what the people want, of course, right, But
Speaker 1: he's yeah, he's a he's definitely a new World order
Speaker 1: cut psychopath type of guy that will do anything for power, so, UM,
Speaker 1: but I think that. UM, I'm sorry, dude, what was
Speaker 1: your question. I was just curious, like, do you see
Speaker 1: this this trend of competition, like you and I leaving
Speaker 1: out competing California, they're starting to lighten up. Do you
Speaker 1: see that trend of competition between states but even countries
Speaker 1: as maybe something that reverses this trend of totalitarianism? That
Speaker 1: it's my only hope for the world. Mark, I told
Speaker 1: you that when you and I it legitimately is you know,
Speaker 1: we didn't really get into where things really are headed,
Speaker 1: and you know, there's not There's a lot to be
Speaker 1: optimistic about opportunities and investments in business and things like that,
Speaker 1: but for the stability of the world and having a
Speaker 1: six month year old, I'm not optimistic at all. And
Speaker 1: one of the things that makes me optimistic if I
Speaker 1: can shift my focus is countries competing. And you know,
Speaker 1: many guests have suggested I said that to me, and
Speaker 1: I had never really thought about it until people started
Speaker 1: saying it more and more. You know, I pray to
Speaker 1: I pray to God that, Um. You know, there are
Speaker 1: there are leaders and political movements in the world, these
Speaker 1: types of politicians and some countries that wake up and say,
Speaker 1: you know, we need UM to have a real surplus
Speaker 1: and savings. Uh, we need to UM compete for high
Speaker 1: income earners that are low crime people that will uplift
Speaker 1: our economy. And we're not gonna uh suppress their freedoms.
Speaker 1: We're not going to invade their private life. We're not
Speaker 1: gonna over tax them. We're not going to um try
Speaker 1: to control what they say. Because they recognize it, they
Speaker 1: do it, they'll live a better life, their budgets will
Speaker 1: be bigger, they'll be able to bring more and more
Speaker 1: enterprise around the world. And and they could save in
Speaker 1: gold or they could save in bitcoin. They could have
Speaker 1: surpluses and resources like you hope that will happen and
Speaker 1: a happy society because they're not being overly tax the
Speaker 1: government's not doing all these shady things. So I pray
Speaker 1: to God that it happens, because I wonder what type
Speaker 1: of world. You know, I've birthed the kid into, you know,
Speaker 1: when she's twenty five years old. So I pray to
Speaker 1: God that like they realize that there's a really good
Speaker 1: opportunity if you do these things, if you don't over tax,
Speaker 1: if you give people their freedoms. You you know, Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: I I'm I'm in the same sentiment. And I was
Speaker 1: probably one of those people in your show that gave
Speaker 1: you that idea. But yeah, I agree. I have a
Speaker 1: couple of kids, and it is scary to think about that.
Speaker 1: But I I just believe that human uh, the dry
Speaker 1: for freedom of humans is always gonna win. And I
Speaker 1: also believe and we didn't talk about this, and I'm
Speaker 1: kind of running out of time, but I also believe
Speaker 1: up you know, and you know, we could dive deep
Speaker 1: into this, but you know, the difference in mindset from
Speaker 1: an abundance mindset to a scarcity mindset. And there's no
Speaker 1: limit to the amount of wealth in the world. A
Speaker 1: thousand years ago, we all live in the dirt. Everything
Speaker 1: in the world has been created. There's no limit to
Speaker 1: the amount of wealth that can be created. And I
Speaker 1: think most unfortunately, most politicians stay have the scarcity mindset.
Speaker 1: And I think when that shifts, and it will, and
Speaker 1: the drive for human freedom, it's going to change that
Speaker 1: the course of that and so um, I have a
Speaker 1: lot of hope for that. So I believe that the
Speaker 1: drive for human freedom will win. I believe competition is
Speaker 1: always gonna win. Now. Unfortunately the gap from here to
Speaker 1: there might not be so comfortable. But um, anyway, so
Speaker 1: I'm praying to God with you and I think I
Speaker 1: think we'll win. So anything else that you want to
Speaker 1: say before we close it out? Mark? Amen, your your
Speaker 1: see lick Mark. You know that's why you and I
Speaker 1: started vibe and I felt like you were just that.
Speaker 1: You know, you're delivering those wise words, and I think
Speaker 1: you're right. I think people are they're starting to wake
Speaker 1: up and the more the government shows their hand, the
Speaker 1: more people are waking up and reclaiming their freedoms and
Speaker 1: their sovereignties and so, uh, yeah, I think I'm with
Speaker 1: you and I think that's where we're headed. Awesome, Jake, Well, um,
