1 00:00:00,440 --> 00:00:02,880 Speaker 1: Do you think Duvall posted this and I want to 2 00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:04,400 Speaker 1: ask you, do you think they killed off the middle 3 00:00:04,400 --> 00:00:08,080 Speaker 1: class in twenty twenty? Was the printing of that money 4 00:00:09,080 --> 00:00:12,280 Speaker 1: and COVID that way to destroy and widen that gap, 5 00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: to erase the middle class? 6 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:18,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean the middle class I think has been 7 00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 2: destroyed maybe before twenty twenty, but yeah, definitely not accelerated it. 8 00:00:23,400 --> 00:00:30,600 Speaker 2: I think that was definitely an acceleration of that. Even 9 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:34,440 Speaker 2: going back to two thousand and eight financial crisis, and 10 00:00:34,479 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 2: we could talk about that on Blackout, but as far 11 00:00:36,479 --> 00:00:40,040 Speaker 2: as you know, how many people lost their homes in 12 00:00:40,080 --> 00:00:44,639 Speaker 2: that and that's when housing really became a forefront issue 13 00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:50,560 Speaker 2: and made a permanent class of renters. Collapsed, people's for 14 00:00:50,760 --> 00:00:54,040 Speaker 2: one cage, people panicked and sold. They have market Monday, 15 00:00:54,080 --> 00:00:55,560 Speaker 2: so a lot of people don't have the full education. 16 00:00:56,200 --> 00:01:01,320 Speaker 2: People got liquidated out of their positions. So I think 17 00:01:01,360 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 2: that was the start of it. The pandemic definitely probably 18 00:01:06,880 --> 00:01:09,520 Speaker 2: accelerated it with the amount of money that was printed. 19 00:01:12,360 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 2: But the middle class I think has been at least shrinking. 20 00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:21,640 Speaker 2: It has been shrinking, yeah, for the last twenty years 21 00:01:21,760 --> 00:01:26,280 Speaker 2: or so. And then you add inflation. That's the killer 22 00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 2: because even when Epstein, that's what he said. That was 23 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:32,360 Speaker 2: one of the things that he said. It was like paraphrasing, 24 00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:40,120 Speaker 2: he said that we we make money from trading stocks 25 00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:44,520 Speaker 2: and investing. It's not we're not doing real work. The 26 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:47,240 Speaker 2: other people they got they gotta do real manual labor 27 00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:50,720 Speaker 2: for work. That's not that's not what we do. We don't. 28 00:01:50,800 --> 00:01:54,280 Speaker 2: We don't. We're not doing real which is ironic because 29 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:56,080 Speaker 2: a lot of people were like, your content creators, you 30 00:01:56,080 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 2: guys aren't really contributing. He and he set several times 31 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:02,400 Speaker 2: he was like Wall Street, what are they what are 32 00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:04,880 Speaker 2: they really doing? What are they doing? They're not doing anything. 33 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:11,040 Speaker 2: They're making billions of dollars just by trading on aarbertrage concepts. 34 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, price disparities. 35 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:17,920 Speaker 2: They're not doing anything to contribute. They're not doing anything physically, 36 00:02:18,320 --> 00:02:21,080 Speaker 2: and they're not doing anything to really contribute to society. 37 00:02:21,480 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 2: They're not doing anything. 38 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:27,400 Speaker 1: Especially when they deregulated derivatives and posts two before two 39 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:29,919 Speaker 1: thousand and eight, it was a free for all. 40 00:02:30,520 --> 00:02:32,240 Speaker 2: But that's the world that we live in. That's the 41 00:02:32,600 --> 00:02:34,480 Speaker 2: I mean, you know, that's the that's the game that's 42 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,200 Speaker 2: being played at the highest level. But the middle class 43 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,200 Speaker 2: is not doing that. Put it like that, the middle 44 00:02:40,200 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 2: class is not taking part in that. In that situation 45 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:47,920 Speaker 2: for the most part, they're still working for money. And 46 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,600 Speaker 2: it's just getting to the point now between the creative economy, 47 00:02:51,919 --> 00:02:56,840 Speaker 2: Wall Street and AI. That's what Robin Vlaf said to us. 48 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,880 Speaker 2: He's like, he's gonna get to a point the idea 49 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 2: of work is not even gonna it's going to it's 50 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,239 Speaker 2: not even going to look the same in twenty years, 51 00:03:05,280 --> 00:03:11,680 Speaker 2: Like how we even conceive work. People that's actually still 52 00:03:11,720 --> 00:03:13,160 Speaker 2: trying to I mean, I guess you still got the 53 00:03:13,200 --> 00:03:16,000 Speaker 2: trade electricians and stuff like that, but the people that's 54 00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 2: still trying to hold on to that we need more, No, 55 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 2: we really don't really don't need more. Really, I just to. 56 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: You, for every job loss, you only need ten in 57 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:29,080 Speaker 1: video GPUs to replace the efficiency of an office worker. 58 00:03:29,400 --> 00:03:32,160 Speaker 1: That's scary as hell. And we were just at a video. 59 00:03:32,880 --> 00:03:35,120 Speaker 1: Trust me, for those who said, oh no, they can't 60 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:40,120 Speaker 1: replace it. Some of the work that we saw in 61 00:03:40,200 --> 00:03:42,080 Speaker 1: those side conference rooms. 62 00:03:42,440 --> 00:03:46,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, but they got a garage for each unit, so 63 00:03:46,640 --> 00:03:49,400 Speaker 3: we saw all the time in this garage. But there's 64 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 3: a healthcare tector like yeah, happening like what are you 65 00:03:53,880 --> 00:03:54,160 Speaker 3: like in. 66 00:03:54,080 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: Another housing, it was hundreds of robots in the warehouse 67 00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:01,600 Speaker 1: that they're simulating. And this crazy part, even if we 68 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:07,560 Speaker 1: make it to outer space or above Earth, they've calibrated 69 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 1: the AI to know the differences in gravity for the 70 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:18,279 Speaker 1: robots to deliver goods and outer space. Yeah, that's scary. 71 00:04:18,360 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: Like they know the weight of Mars and Jupiter Earth too, 72 00:04:22,920 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 1: and it only takes a day or two for the 73 00:04:25,440 --> 00:04:30,200 Speaker 1: entire robot force to recalibrate to deliver supplies on other planets. 74 00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:35,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, the GPU that goes inside that that robot, Yeah, 75 00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:37,279 Speaker 3: it takes a day. If they know the level of 76 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:40,000 Speaker 3: gravity on a specific place, they can train it to 77 00:04:40,400 --> 00:04:43,080 Speaker 3: balance itself inside that gravity. Right, So the first time 78 00:04:43,120 --> 00:04:45,000 Speaker 3: you train it, it falls to the ground. Then you train 79 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:47,479 Speaker 3: it to Earth's gravity, it begins to learn how to 80 00:04:47,520 --> 00:04:51,800 Speaker 3: walk on Earth's But it's in the stuff you see, 81 00:04:51,800 --> 00:04:54,760 Speaker 3: it's just like, oh, it's not it's a different level, 82 00:04:55,080 --> 00:04:55,599 Speaker 3: different level. 83 00:04:57,960 --> 00:05:00,800 Speaker 1: And then of course Tesla, I mean you line announced 84 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,279 Speaker 1: that SpaceX is merging with x AI. 85 00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:04,000 Speaker 2: Yo. 86 00:05:04,080 --> 00:05:06,039 Speaker 3: Yeah, talk about time. 87 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:11,720 Speaker 2: Oh yeah, it's not the time to play follow the 88 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 2: money mm hmmm, follow the money. We do need more plumbers. 89 00:05:16,120 --> 00:05:18,120 Speaker 2: But everybody that's telling you we need more plumbers, they're 90 00:05:18,160 --> 00:05:21,440 Speaker 2: not a plumber. You ever think about that? That's a 91 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,360 Speaker 2: good point. Gary V shot him. I mean he's a 92 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,839 Speaker 2: genius obviously, but he's like, Yo, we need electricians. Gary 93 00:05:26,880 --> 00:05:27,800 Speaker 2: V is not electrician. 94 00:05:28,240 --> 00:05:29,040 Speaker 1: Mm hmmm. 95 00:05:31,000 --> 00:05:31,400 Speaker 4: Mm hmm. 96 00:05:31,800 --> 00:05:35,240 Speaker 3: Go get it over there. I'm gonna get it over there. 97 00:05:35,279 --> 00:05:39,039 Speaker 2: I hate, I hate to be a bad guy, but 98 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:41,480 Speaker 2: let's just be honest.

But show them how to 109 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:09,640 Speaker 1: make ten or fifteen million a year. 110 00:06:10,839 --> 00:06:13,760 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's good money there. That's good money there, ye for. 111 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,560 Speaker 2: Sure, if you own a plumbing company. Yeah, let's be honest. 112 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 2: But what I'm saying, they tell you one thing, and 113 00:06:22,760 --> 00:06:26,800 Speaker 2: then they're not telling their children that they're not.

Like I said, sometimes 116 00:06:33,160 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 3: in life, people earn money from the neck down and 117 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:38,360 Speaker 3: some people earn money from the neck up. 118 00:06:38,760 --> 00:06:42,880 Speaker 2: Yo. Hey yo, I said. Earning money from the neck 119 00:06:42,960 --> 00:06:44,440 Speaker 2: up is wild. 120 00:06:44,520 --> 00:06:54,320 Speaker 4: Crazy, and that's going down people, I said, some people people.
