Speaker 2: We are talking to two brothers today that's gonna get
Speaker 2: us out of pop. They got our forty eights and
Speaker 2: a mule, and right now we're going to school the
Speaker 2: youth on some serious things because the one thing for
Speaker 2: the youth, Yeah that's the youth and grownman, because one
Speaker 2: thing for sure, two things for certain people think that
Speaker 2: superheroes only come in to hip hop form or entertainment form.
Speaker 2: And I'm here to tell y'all, superheroes come in the
Speaker 2: form of these brothers.
Speaker 3: Right here. We go.
Speaker 2: So first off, First off, so, okay, I know this
Speaker 2: is something that you get. I was watching y'all ONNESSA
Speaker 2: and which we saw each Yeah, yeah, it's crazy, Yes, yes, yes,
Speaker 2: So I know this is something that you probably get
Speaker 2: every day. Right, you guys are a successful black man
Speaker 2: from the hood. You know what I mean of the
Speaker 2: coach that you guys are cool?
Speaker 3: Like if a person.
Speaker 2: And for lack of a better term, my mom might
Speaker 2: use a person coming from jail, right, person that wants
Speaker 2: to fly straight, has a couple of dollars, what would
Speaker 2: you say to them?
Speaker 3: Should be their first investment? Yeah.
Speaker 4: First, I don't want to be sound cliche, sound corny,
Speaker 4: but I'm gonna be honest with you. The first investment
Speaker 4: in your education, that's the first. It's funny that you
Speaker 4: say jail because I have a cousin. We actually spoke
Speaker 4: at a federal penitentiary earlier this year and they started
Speaker 4: a book club with our book called You Just Had
Speaker 4: to Be Written Inside of Jail, And we was talking
Speaker 4: to them and.
Speaker 2: Their book club and jail, let's make no noise for
Speaker 2: that guy. Just like when I hear a book club,
Speaker 2: I hear a lady named Benny you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: You know what was in the session when we were speaking,
Speaker 4: su sir wo jail Wow. So long story short is
Speaker 4: like so many people are smart, but they focus their
Speaker 4: intelligence on the wrong things. I always say, it's like
Speaker 4: poor kids learn how to gamble, rich kids learn how
Speaker 4: to invest.
Speaker 3: Like if you can learn how.
Speaker 4: To play space, poker, blackjack, tonk c low all of
Speaker 4: these games, there's no reason why you can't learn how
Speaker 4: to invest money in the stock monkey. You just wasn't
Speaker 4: applying yet that energy into it. So the first thing
Speaker 4: that you should do before anything is invest in your education.
Speaker 4: When I say invest in your education, read a book,
Speaker 4: read a.
Speaker 3: Book, watch a podcast, go to college.
Speaker 4: No, you can't go to college for sure, But I'm
Speaker 4: just saying a lot of stuff that you're going to
Speaker 4: learn is going to be outside of college. Like all
Speaker 4: the stuff that we learn it outside of college. So
Speaker 4: most colleges are not going to teach you the stuff
Speaker 4: that we're teaching you or that you need to know,
Speaker 4: Like they're not going to teach you, nine times out
Speaker 4: of ten, how to actually buy real estate the right way,
Speaker 4: like real life applications exactly, or how to invest in
Speaker 4: the stock market, how to trade stocks, how to really
Speaker 4: you know, improve your credit. These aren't things that most
Speaker 4: of the time you learn in college. So the good
Speaker 4: thing about education now is that it's free for the
Speaker 4: most part.
Speaker 3: Right you buy a book is what forty dollars?
Speaker 4: You could go on YouTube and watch thou thousands of
Speaker 4: hours of education for free. You can educate yourself anything
Speaker 4: right now. But for artificial intelligence, everything is changing so quickly,
Speaker 4: you really, really, really really have to invest in your education.
Speaker 3: I think after education is invested in the market, you
Speaker 3: think about the barrier of entry for some of the
Speaker 3: other things that we're thinking, Right, how do I get
Speaker 3: into real estate? You're gonna need some capital for that, right,
Speaker 3: or how do I get along? Well, you're gonna need
Speaker 3: credit card for that. You just coming home. You got
Speaker 3: the education, how do you apply it? What's the lowest
Speaker 3: barrier of entry for you to have maximum game? It
Speaker 3: would be putting in the market, invested in the United
Speaker 3: State's economy. Right, And so we're looking at it. It's growing.
Speaker 3: We understand it because we've been using the technology a
Speaker 3: lot of times. You reading, you hear about it, get
Speaker 3: adapted to it. I remember were talking about people who
Speaker 3: you know, how do I use a cell phone? Right?
Speaker 3: What's the first cell phone that you're getting? And so
Speaker 3: understanding how the world getting associated with it again, but
Speaker 3: realizing that technology is always going to be the growth
Speaker 3: engine for anything that we do. That's going to be
Speaker 3: the growth engine. And it takes five hundred dollars over
Speaker 3: the brokes you account start if it's one share, two
Speaker 3: shares and just keep building.
Speaker 2: Let me ask you something the album that was speaking
Speaker 2: about real estate. I had just learned recently that in
Speaker 2: Puerto Rico, right, they say you never own your house
Speaker 2: right because the people who buy it it goes down
Speaker 2: to the next generation. So even if I sell it
Speaker 2: to you, they is that? Is that something that's normal
Speaker 2: in the United States?
Speaker 4: No, So it's so okay we having a development. We're
Speaker 4: building a real estate development in Ghana.
Speaker 3: And Ghana in Africa. Yeah you have been Oh no,
Speaker 3: I have not. I've been doing your.
Speaker 2: Instagram smell everything smelled it.
Speaker 3: I feel like do your Instagram? Might do you have
Speaker 3: to sit on.
Speaker 2: Like I was like, Yo, I'm good, I'm good, I'm
Speaker 2: cool with y'all brothers.
Speaker 3: I felt like I was with y'all.
Speaker 4: Forget so so One of the things with Ghana and
Speaker 4: a lot of places in Africa is that it's like
Speaker 4: a land lease pretty much, so technically you never really
Speaker 4: own your house outright. It's like you leased the land
Speaker 4: for fifty years at a time, ninety nine years then,
Speaker 4: so people are saying, like in the comments, like why
Speaker 4: would I want to buy a home that I never own.
Speaker 4: I'm only leasing it for ninety nine years, and then
Speaker 4: at the end of the ninety nine years and you
Speaker 4: got to pay another feed and you're leasing it for
Speaker 4: another fifty years.
Speaker 3: Now.
Speaker 2: This is obviously your family members that will take it over.
Speaker 4: But I'm like, you say that, but do you really
Speaker 4: own your house in America? Because if you don't pay
Speaker 4: property taxes, they're gonna take your house away from you.
Speaker 4: And those property taxes every single year, and they increase
Speaker 4: every single year. So it's like even if you this
Speaker 4: is a reason why a lot of people go broke
Speaker 4: because they.
Speaker 3: Don't fully understand real estate.
Speaker 4: So it's like, even if you buy a house in cash, right,
Speaker 4: you still have to be responsible for property taxes. Depending
Speaker 4: on where you live, your property taxes could be more
Speaker 4: than a mortgage. So if you live in Beverly hills,
Speaker 4: or you live somewhere, you got a multi million dollar house.
Speaker 4: You're thinking, Okay, I'm good, I paid this off.
Speaker 3: I'm good.
Speaker 4: Now you get one hundred thousand dollars eighty thousand dollars
Speaker 4: a year property tax that goes up every single year,
Speaker 4: by the way, so in ten years that's going to
Speaker 4: be two hundred thousand dollar property tax. Let alone the
Speaker 4: maintenance that comes with it. Now you got to cut
Speaker 4: the grass. Now you gotta pay for the light bill.
Speaker 4: Now you gotta pay for for boiler breaks. So but
Speaker 4: you could pay for one hundred years. If you miss
Speaker 4: a few years, you're in danger of your house being
Speaker 4: taken away. You missed three years and your house is
Speaker 4: gonna be taken away.
Speaker 3: Fro It happens all the time. It happens all the time,
Speaker 3: especially for healthly people that that don't stay on top
Speaker 3: of that.
Speaker 2: So not in Florida, though, I think Florida got like
Speaker 2: some type of claus that you can keep your shit.
Speaker 3: But we got property taxes though. You see, like the athlete,
Speaker 3: the first thing or anybody entertainment, the first thing they
Speaker 3: want to do is by their mama home. That's what
Speaker 3: everybody says, right, body, mama, home, you get a home, right,
Speaker 3: you mean you're thinking that the home is paid off
Speaker 3: because you paid for it, right, But when them ten
Speaker 3: thousand dollars property tax twenty thousand dollars property tax bills
Speaker 3: come and you're not expecting it, and now you stop
Speaker 3: playing and that house is still there collecting property tax.
Speaker 3: Now your mom's lost the home. Now she's coming back
Speaker 3: to live with you. And so against that education piece
Speaker 3: because we think we're doing the right thing, and it
Speaker 3: feels on the service like we are doing the right
Speaker 3: thing right, Like my parents have done so much for me.
Speaker 3: I want to give back to them. But you don't
Speaker 3: realize you're leaving them. What that means, Bill, You're leaving
Speaker 3: them with that property tax, even if the mortgage just
Speaker 3: paid off. Well, so you got to keep those things
Speaker 3: in my school tax, school tax as well.
Speaker 2: So my friend of mine, Grant Cardon, he said it
Speaker 2: doesn't makes sense to buy. He said, he rents everything.
Speaker 2: He even like rents the money that he's getting getting in.
Speaker 3: What do y'all feel about that?
Speaker 4: I think what he said is it doesn't make sense
Speaker 4: to own your house where you live like you can
Speaker 4: own real estate.
Speaker 3: But it should be renting.
Speaker 4: Rent you rent you where you should be come where
Speaker 4: you live, you should be renting.
Speaker 3: I mean there's some truth to that.
Speaker 4: I would say this, most people in America go about
Speaker 4: it the wrong way. They buy a home that they
Speaker 4: cannot afford if you really think about it, right, here's
Speaker 4: how we taught in America. We're taught to put as
Speaker 4: little money down as possible. It's really a dumb decision
Speaker 4: if you really think about it, because, like I said,
Speaker 4: even in Ghana, they play that they paid the.
Speaker 3: House off in cash.
Speaker 4: Because you go to the bank, the bank will approve
Speaker 4: you for five hundred thousand dollars, right, So you get
Speaker 4: a loan for five hundred thousand dollars, but you over
Speaker 4: extended yourself, so now you're paying you're working just to
Speaker 4: pay your mortgage. Your mortgage is five hundred thousand. By
Speaker 4: the time that you get finished paying it off, you're
Speaker 4: gonna pay three times more because of interest for thirty years.
Speaker 4: So instead of saying, Okay, I got approved for a
Speaker 4: million dollars, but I'm a buy a home for four
Speaker 4: hundred thousand, nobody does that.
Speaker 3: People go to the max.
Speaker 4: You get approved for five hundred, you get a home
Speaker 4: for five hundred, you get approved for two million, you
Speaker 4: get a home for two million. Just because you get
Speaker 4: approved for something doesn't mean that you have to go
Speaker 4: up to that max. That's not an intelligent way to
Speaker 4: go about it, because that's how a lot.
Speaker 3: Of people end up broke.
Speaker 4: They think they're making smart decisions, but they're actually putting
Speaker 4: themselves in a liability financial debt for thirty years.
Speaker 2: So you're saying, if you get a two million out
Speaker 2: a loan, you should get a house for one.
Speaker 3: Point five good a house for one, get a house
Speaker 3: for one.
Speaker 2: Nobody the million stays in your bank account.
Speaker 3: No, you're not getting the two million. They're saying that
Speaker 3: you can get a house up to We're going, okay
Speaker 3: like that. At that two million rate, that's going like
Speaker 3: you're really gonna have to pinch and say how am
Speaker 3: I going to afford this? Right? Rather than saying I
Speaker 3: can afford the two million, they're gonna get me a
Speaker 3: loan for it, Why not just find a home that's
Speaker 3: a million, right, because you can probably figure out how
Speaker 3: am I going to afford that? Right, There's there's less
Speaker 3: of a state strategic plan that's going to be needed.
Speaker 3: If you're in that class. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 3: And most people don't do that. We always talk about
Speaker 3: live below your means, right, but most people live up
Speaker 3: to their means. Right. So if the house, if I
Speaker 3: get a loan for five million, I'm looking for a
Speaker 3: five point two, right, because I could probably sneak. That's
Speaker 3: how most people think it. Right. Other countries, the housing
Speaker 3: situation is a lot different. Right. So in God, for example,
Speaker 3: if the house is three hundred, if you don't have
Speaker 3: three hundred thousand, you're not getting a house in the bank.
Speaker 3: You got to pay for that, or at most, and
Speaker 3: this is most more recently, they'll give you like a
Speaker 3: three month lease. Right, You're where you're paying one month,
Speaker 3: you're paying one hundred thousand, and that's what one thousand.
Speaker 3: They're not giving you a thirty year mortgage. There's no
Speaker 3: such thing. It doesn't exist. America's financing the bank constructure
Speaker 3: is not the same. So because they don't.
Speaker 4: Want you in market mortgage the mortgage was is a
Speaker 4: financial instrument created by the banks to benefit banks. Americans
Speaker 4: are addicted to debt. Like I said, if you really
Speaker 4: think about it, we lease our cars or when we
Speaker 4: even buy our cars.
Speaker 3: What does that mean? We're financing it seven years.
Speaker 4: When we buy a house, we're financing it for thirty
Speaker 4: When we go to college, we go to colleges that
Speaker 4: we can't afford, We get student loan debt.
Speaker 3: We lease it our phones.
Speaker 4: At this point, we're normalized paying as little as possible
Speaker 4: for things that we can't afford. We go to school
Speaker 4: that you go to college and you can't pay for it.
Speaker 4: You can't afford to go there. You buy a car
Speaker 4: and you can't afford to pay for it. You can't
Speaker 4: afford that car. You buy a house, technically, if you
Speaker 4: get a mortgage, you can't afford for that.
Speaker 3: Nobody wants to say that. Nobody thinks about that.
Speaker 4: But if we're being honest, other countries don't think like that.
Speaker 4: That's how that's saying. But these are all financial instruments
Speaker 4: that benefit the banking system because they put interest on
Speaker 4: top of it. So if I can give you a
Speaker 4: loan for thirty years with an eight percent seven percent mortgage,
Speaker 4: how much money am I going to make over the
Speaker 4: course of thirty years. So if I could convince you
Speaker 4: this is the best thing for you, don't worry about it,
Speaker 4: worry about it later. Then you're not even thinking about it.
Speaker 4: And I'm making residual income every single year.
Speaker 3: That's what I'm saying. That's like thirty years rather than
Speaker 3: saying it's a thirty year loan. The bank is looking
Speaker 3: as you're not my thirty year customer. You always you're
Speaker 3: gonna owe me for the next thirty years, and if
Speaker 3: you can't afford it, they just take. You're gonna take
Speaker 3: they no matter what, they're gonna repossess the house. The
Speaker 3: house is going to appreciate and they're gonna take the difference.
Speaker 3: That's like what we see in neighborhood Renascenter. What is
Speaker 3: rena Center.
Speaker 2: Written your furniture because you couldn't afford it?
Speaker 3: Right right, I'm saying, just like payment loans, like by now,
Speaker 3: pay later, it's the same thing we grew up when
Speaker 3: it was laio way. Now they change the term they
Speaker 3: recrafted to say by now, pay later, But we grew up.
Speaker 3: You know you're putting that on lay away, right, you're
Speaker 3: gonna pay over time to real life. And but with
Speaker 3: lay away you couldn't get the product until you finish
Speaker 3: paying now, it was like you could buy it, take
Speaker 3: it now. And continue to pay me over time it up.
Speaker 2: You couldn't take it, right, right, You don't got to
Speaker 2: share it, so you can fucus, I got to.
Speaker 3: Pay the whole shit, exactly. Think about it.
Speaker 4: You think about something when you got to pay for
Speaker 4: it in cash, you think about it. You don't really
Speaker 4: think about something if it's a monthly. If it's ten
Speaker 4: thousand dollars, you're going to make a conscious decision do
Speaker 4: I really want to spend ten thousand dollars on it?
Speaker 3: If you could break it down for five.
Speaker 4: Years and it's one hundred and fifty dollars per month,
Speaker 4: and then.
Speaker 3: All right, it's not that big of a deal until
Speaker 3: you realize them.
Speaker 4: I actually paid more than ten thousand over the course
Speaker 4: of time, but the smaller increments makes it psychologically seen
Speaker 4: it's irrational.
Speaker 3: We live in our lives on a month to month, right, right,
Speaker 3: So that's why we always say, like I have six
Speaker 3: months and twelve US reserves, because you never know what happened.
Speaker 3: The education part is important too, right, because the people
Speaker 3: who are trying to get these loans, if we don't
Speaker 3: have good credit, then interest rate is higher, right, interest
Speaker 3: rates to sit in like six and a half to
Speaker 3: seven percent. That's I mean in our lifetime, that's pretty high.
Speaker 3: In the eighties, that feels like, oh, that's a really
Speaker 3: affordable thing. Right, But there's adjustable rates. I talk about
Speaker 3: it in our book where but my parents lost the
Speaker 3: home because they weren't educated on a fixed rate Morgans
Speaker 3: versus adjustable rate. Right, they bought it, it was six percent.
Speaker 3: In three years it was seventeen percent. We could afford
Speaker 3: it that six We couldn't afford it that seventeen. In fact,
Speaker 3: if we can't afford that seventeen, what happens next year
Speaker 3: when it's nineteen All right, now we lose the home.
Speaker 3: You see what I'm saying. The education piece is important.
Speaker 3: So let me bounce around a little bit, right. I
Speaker 3: was going to get this property in Dominican Republic, right
Speaker 3: just because like it was like, you know, it was
Speaker 3: up my alley, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: It was up my ali And I was like, and
Speaker 2: I went and I asked, you know what I'm trying
Speaker 2: to say. You know what I'm trying to say somewhere,
Speaker 2: but you know what I said.
Speaker 3: Lived on the Russian kids say today, live on the road. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it was one of those. It was one of those things. Right.
Speaker 2: So just as a formality, I met with Jamie Leftfrack,
Speaker 2: you know, the guy who actually ows, and I was like, yo,
Speaker 2: I was adamant about like, yo, you know what I want.
Speaker 3: To He suggested Costa Rica.
Speaker 2: But what he said was a lot of these islands.
Speaker 2: Like we were speaking earlier, you don't own your property,
Speaker 2: but if something happens where the US government and they
Speaker 2: go to war, they can easily take your property.
Speaker 3: The country can, the country can? Is that true? Yeah?
Speaker 4: I mean it definitely depends on the country that you
Speaker 4: that you go to, because whenever you look at the
Speaker 4: country for us, it's definitely the political structure is important
Speaker 4: because you could go to a country and I were
Speaker 4: just so happened with Venezuela, right, Like they just take
Speaker 4: the president.
Speaker 2: You can't see that far, but they taking property too,
Speaker 2: Say is the property.
Speaker 3: Take the president? And right? But not the president. But
Speaker 3: I feel like that's just some Trump like uh, the
Speaker 3: boldness of it. Yeah, And he was doing it like he.
Speaker 4: Was on the block they take.
Speaker 3: Of them in that's right, took but he was foul.
Speaker 3: He was with the c I A. He was following
Speaker 3: it wasn't convenient. He was double yeah. I think we
Speaker 3: just wanted to test some equipment out there. But you
Speaker 3: definitely got to be mindful of like.
Speaker 4: Different like governments with the lawyer is like that, because
Speaker 4: I think that's a big thing when American co overseas,
Speaker 4: they think everything is America. I went to Thailand, I
Speaker 4: went to Singapore.
Speaker 2: Sing I love Singapore. He wasn't smoking to Singapore. You
Speaker 2: know you're give me my stories. Hold on, stop this.
Speaker 2: I go to Singapore. I have no idea I'm going through.
Speaker 3: They pulled me over at airport jail Oh. I had
Speaker 3: two cartons of new ports.
Speaker 2: They said, listen, sir, it's illegal to bring cigarettes into Singapore.
Speaker 3: So they put myself to the side. They ain't thrown
Speaker 3: in the garbage.
Speaker 2: They put myself to the side and made me buy
Speaker 2: two cartons of smiggling cigarette. Cigarettes is a part of Singapore.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, sorry, so singattefore crazy.
Speaker 4: You know, you know when you go to these different
Speaker 4: places and they give you like the pamphlets to read
Speaker 4: about the I never really read it, but for some
Speaker 4: reason this time, like let me actually read this, and
Speaker 4: I'm reading the bylaws and they say drug trafficking of
Speaker 4: any kind is punishable by death. Oh yeah, I'm like,
Speaker 4: what the fuck? Then I get there and we know
Speaker 4: somebody there. So my friend his cousin lived at the time,
Speaker 4: so she was telling us. She's like, yo, there's no weed.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, there's no drugs. You can't even it's a
Speaker 4: crime to spit gum on the street. I respect that,
Speaker 4: but guess what, it's the cleanest place in the worst
Speaker 4: of this. So I'm like, what they mean is punished
Speaker 4: with by death? That oh you know you can that's
Speaker 4: death penalty if you get caught with drugs.
Speaker 3: This death penalty.
Speaker 2: You never see that movie Paradise Lost or something like
Speaker 2: that with a girl get caught. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I say to say, it's like a lot
Speaker 4: of times the Americans go to different countries thinking it's America,
Speaker 4: Like I'm gonna do what I want to do, and
Speaker 4: you end up in jail in Dubai for forty five years.
Speaker 3: After y'all nothing.
Speaker 2: You know, I know, Maldis there's no smoking Dubai, no smoking.
Speaker 3: Saudi Arabia knows.
Speaker 2: I'll get it out of my mind though, Like I'll
Speaker 2: be like, yo, I take cigars, bro, Like you.
Speaker 3: Know, what I mean like and like it like that
Speaker 3: teach y'all out there.
Speaker 2: So I'm sorry I'm bouncing around, but okay, you guys
Speaker 2: are bumping head with sheikhs and ship like that, like
Speaker 2: how like you know, no, no, this is really.
Speaker 3: Not bumping what I mean like this is like this
Speaker 3: is like.
Speaker 2: You know, I heard, I heard y'all say, and this
Speaker 2: is what I was trying to establish it an intro
Speaker 2: is you know, for a long time, people only look
Speaker 2: at entertainment for people that's like that superheroes and people
Speaker 2: like you know, uh.
Speaker 3: Uh what does that ship?
Speaker 5: Uh uh?
Speaker 2: Ball players and ship like that, But guys are actually
Speaker 2: breaking the mold right where you're making it cool to
Speaker 2: be financially aware of what's going on and not only that,
Speaker 2: like like so I want to break it down in
Speaker 2: two questions.
Speaker 3: First off, like how does that feel?
Speaker 2: And then the second off is like how how?
Speaker 3: How?
Speaker 2: Well? Let's answer this first one first stick gro overseas
Speaker 2: because like me seeing y'all in Dubai, me seeing y'all
Speaker 2: and God and me seeing y'all with these people, and
Speaker 2: these people are breaking down all this ship, this ship
Speaker 2: is amazing to me, Like how how? How is that
Speaker 2: and because your word is coming across so many people
Speaker 2: who have been been preaching their world and it just
Speaker 2: doesn't land on people. Y'alls just landing on people not
Speaker 2: only here but abroad.
Speaker 3: So no shit is humbling. Man.
Speaker 4: It's one of these things like our culture is exported
Speaker 4: all the the world and you you realize that when
Speaker 4: you travel, and so it's like the music was exported
Speaker 4: over the world. You got kids in Japan that's been
Speaker 4: breakdowns and doing all of crazy ship with the fashion
Speaker 4: and all that. So it only made sense when we
Speaker 4: really broke through with business and finance and talking about
Speaker 4: it the way that we didn't.
Speaker 3: Doing a cultural standpoint. They was waiting for that.
Speaker 4: So when we go to London Royal Albert Hall and
Speaker 4: thousands of people is lying up there like that, we
Speaker 4: was waiting. We was waiting for this moment, or when
Speaker 4: we go to Canada, or when we go to Ghano,
Speaker 4: or when we go to Kenya, when we go anywhere
Speaker 4: like it's like they was waiting. So many people has
Speaker 4: been left out of this conversation for so long. That's
Speaker 4: one of the blessings with social media. It's a gift
Speaker 4: and the curse, but one of the greatest blessings is
Speaker 4: that social media gave everybody an opportunity to become like
Speaker 4: a celebrity. Right before you morpetizing, you had to be
Speaker 4: an athlete or entertainer. Now you could be a celebrity, chef,
Speaker 4: personal training, anything, yeah, anything exact.
Speaker 3: Speaking a restavoir. Sometimes see people everybody like looking like
Speaker 3: a curse.
Speaker 4: But so it gave us an opportunity to, you know,
Speaker 4: become notable and reach people talking about finance because the
Speaker 4: way that we did it completely different than anybody else
Speaker 4: has really done it at scale, and you know, we
Speaker 4: just had.
Speaker 3: More relatable I told like Dougie Fresh said this to us.
Speaker 3: He was like, yo, y'all are the last piece of
Speaker 3: the infinity stone. He was like, hip hop has five
Speaker 3: core elements, right, Like it's the DJs, the mcs, breakdancing
Speaker 3: is graffiti, he said, it was the beat box, which
Speaker 3: is obviously his part. And then he was like, y'all,
Speaker 3: y'all making it cool to be smart, Like, imagine if
Speaker 3: we had all six of those in the age from
Speaker 3: the beginning, right, and.
Speaker 2: You know what's fucked up about that? And this is
Speaker 2: real talk. I've been in this industry twenty five years,
Speaker 2: maybe more. Maybe I'm shaving a year two.
Speaker 3: I'm not sure we're approaching thirty years for the war.
Speaker 3: The war. War was definitely hit about the hit thirty.
Speaker 2: I have never as many checks as I've got, as
Speaker 2: many deals of I've closed. No one has never said, hey, man,
Speaker 2: you think you want to invest in such and such,
Speaker 2: or you think you want to like you know you're
Speaker 2: getting this and you're getting this up front, you want
Speaker 2: to take a piece of that.
Speaker 3: Yeah, No one has never told me that. Did you
Speaker 3: ever work with Burke Pide? I was just about to
Speaker 3: bring that up, and how the are you? In my mind?
Speaker 3: I got to me, you've been that's been something cool one.
Speaker 3: So here's no.
Speaker 2: But he was.
Speaker 3: He was good by Harris Horace Madison. I heard him
Speaker 3: this black black. I believe he's.
Speaker 6: Urged right by the artists, like he was trying to
Speaker 6: give you all solve the advice.
Speaker 7: Oh.
Speaker 2: I ain't work with Burke myself. I was in the
Speaker 2: office when Biggie was working with people. I was shopping
Speaker 2: for my account when and uh yeah, yeah, so I
Speaker 2: didn't get to work with him direct.
Speaker 3: But yeah, but that language is how we forget who
Speaker 3: these people are like when Big said stash more cash Burverde,
Speaker 3: I was like, all right, who's that? When the lots
Speaker 3: are saying, oh fuss being violenced to get stocks and bonds,
Speaker 3: it's like you listening to it and I'm like, oh, ship,
Speaker 3: that there it is. I feel like that was a
Speaker 3: common theme that we had amongst each other, was we
Speaker 3: was hearing that ship differently than everybody else. We're hearing
Speaker 3: it like oh that Oh that's advice, right, like subtractive
Speaker 3: links from out the chaining ridse and start ringing. All right,
Speaker 3: we got to keep our crew together. If every nigga
Speaker 3: and your clickers rich, your clickers rugget no one because
Speaker 3: every wanted to be each other's crutches. I bet that
Speaker 3: goes to principles. You see what I'm saying, And now
Speaker 3: you're right, you're right, But even.
Speaker 4: The perfect because like when Ross was like handle is
Speaker 4: handling money, they never come across and it was crazy
Speaker 4: because like that era, I don't know if it was
Speaker 4: like correct me if I'm wrong, you had to go
Speaker 4: to your accounting to get money. Absolutely, like yo, I
Speaker 4: need to fit the thousand wired to me. And like
Speaker 4: he said, I remember him saying that to me all
Speaker 4: the time. You I got to go get.
Speaker 3: Money, sound with it.
Speaker 4: But if you really think about it, right, it didn't
Speaker 4: feel weird back then. But if that's that's why that
Speaker 4: line is so crazy, He's like managers handling money. They
Speaker 4: never come across they themselves have never made that much money,
Speaker 4: and they're giving you a permission slip on.
Speaker 3: You can take this no weight, that's too much you're.
Speaker 4: Doing and everybody was okay with it, and you'd be
Speaker 4: the biggest gangster in the world and talk all types
Speaker 4: of crazy shit. They have to acts a eight year
Speaker 4: old white man. Can I get an allowance that was
Speaker 4: trained to hip hop that you don't. You can't be
Speaker 4: a owner. You're not responsible. You're not even responsible to
Speaker 4: manage your own money. We got to give you your money,
Speaker 4: but let alone ever think about getting ownership and asking
Speaker 4: for equity or your publishing or masters or none of that.
Speaker 4: Ship Like, so it's like now it's like our responsibility
Speaker 4: to bring the culture out the dark ages as far
Speaker 4: as like we've already mastered sports, entertainment, speaking a variety
Speaker 4: of different things, but now we really got to master
Speaker 4: this finance thing. Because it's like nobody respects you. If
Speaker 4: you can't control your money, that's the biggest thing in
Speaker 4: the world. So it's like, we still don't have control
Speaker 4: of our resources now, like they would say, we go
Speaker 4: to Africa and they be like, damn, it's a shame Africans.
Speaker 4: They don't have control of their resources. We all got
Speaker 4: control of our resources. What's our resources? Our talent? Like,
Speaker 4: we don't have control of our talent. We don't have control. Like,
Speaker 4: if you really think about it, all of these record labels,
Speaker 4: all of these sports teams, they no ownership. How many
Speaker 4: NBA teams are owned by black people?
Speaker 3: None? How many NFL teams are owned by a black person? None?
Speaker 4: How many major record labels are owned by the black
Speaker 4: person is gonna kill you? Gods and magic ownership?
Speaker 3: How many?
Speaker 4: How many record labels is owned by black people? They
Speaker 4: give you a subsidiary record label. That's a psychological play
Speaker 4: to make you feel like you have powers. It's like
Speaker 4: putting a manager in a position at Walmart. You don't
Speaker 4: own Walmart. You yourself feel like you're better than the employee.
Speaker 4: So now you can get on you can go on
Speaker 4: video and shit on you like, yeah, you broke motherfucker,
Speaker 4: I got a label, but your label is under a label,
Speaker 4: So do you really have a label? Are you a
Speaker 4: manager for somebody else's company? Yeah, it was never a label.
Speaker 3: That'd be the thing and the idea of education and finance.
Speaker 3: It feels like, yes, our community needed it. But when
Speaker 3: we travel they look at us. I remember the first
Speaker 3: time we was in Africa, they were like, I've never
Speaker 3: heard black men speak so freely, like meeting meaning that
Speaker 3: you guys get to say what you want. You have
Speaker 3: to educate people, and people are gravitated into the masses
Speaker 3: of it, like we need that here. And so our
Speaker 3: thing was like, all right, bet, this isn't a domestic issue.
Speaker 3: This is a global issue, right, So that's why when
Speaker 3: you see it's traveling, it's always from a standpoint of like,
Speaker 3: all right, what can we learn from this area? How
Speaker 3: can we find business here, How can we find entrepreneurs here?
Speaker 3: How can we find opportunities here? And less help shape
Speaker 3: narrative and show people this is opportunity. So when we
Speaker 3: are gone opportunity, when we in Kenya were looking for opportunity,
Speaker 3: when we in Rwanda, the same thing. It's crazy the movies.
Speaker 3: So that's the thing, like in our mind That's all
Speaker 3: we remember is hotel. They they suck us up with that.
Speaker 3: They took us up with that cleanest place in the
Speaker 3: on the entire continent.
Speaker 2: Beautiful, absolutely beautiful, And all I see is the movie.
Speaker 6: It's a long way from that at that time in
Speaker 6: a short period of time.
Speaker 3: Remarkable turn remarkable. Yeah, chain of events for sure. Yeah,
Speaker 3: but America once was had a I mean, it still
Speaker 3: has a crazy history, but it still has a dark history.
Speaker 3: But we don't tie to like I'm never going there
Speaker 3: because it's dark history. We say, oh, okay, that was
Speaker 3: the past. When it comes to Africa, it's like, I
Speaker 3: don't know, you.
Speaker 2: Know, it is what I really really, really really want
Speaker 2: to go to Africa for. Told to me to train
Speaker 2: with the Kenyans running. No, I never said yeah, but
Speaker 2: I wanted like like longstance run like you know, like
Speaker 2: you know, I ran a marathon running again this year,
Speaker 2: oh yeah again this year but New York City.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm doing I'm only second with New York City.
Speaker 3: I'm sorry, I'm sorry.
Speaker 2: So uh so what I want to do, what I'm
Speaker 2: doing this time is because I did this ship raw
Speaker 2: with just me, my homie, Mitch, my homie Lows and
Speaker 2: a bunch of us and you know they have ran marathons.
Speaker 3: But you know, we hire no real trainer.
Speaker 2: Like it's like, yo, we got access to all this ship,
Speaker 2: Like what that's that's like you know, having Michael Jordan
Speaker 2: and have him on the.
Speaker 3: Bench, like you know what I'm saying. So I'm gonna
Speaker 3: do that.
Speaker 2: But then the last part to that puzzle is to say,
Speaker 2: you know what before it like four weeks away from it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm going.
Speaker 2: I'm gonna I'm gonna go to Kenya though, I'm hiring
Speaker 2: the dudes that live here.
Speaker 3: I'm hiring the two people that I know that one
Speaker 3: the marathon.
Speaker 2: I think one is an Ethiopia and one is a Kenya,
Speaker 2: but they live in America.
Speaker 3: So I'm hiring them. Yeah yeah, yeah yeah.
Speaker 2: But but then I'm gonna go to the real deal.
Speaker 2: I want to go to the dirt. Yeah, I'm gonna
Speaker 2: go to.
Speaker 6: When you guys go to these countries, does it always
Speaker 6: translate the same knowledge of what you do?
Speaker 3: Does it translate always? I think people they hear the
Speaker 3: information and they can interpret it, but so much right
Speaker 3: because the laws are different, governments are different, policies are different,
Speaker 3: and so it's that that need for it right there,
Speaker 3: Like again, somebody's at least speaking about financial education. I
Speaker 3: know some of those things don't apply, but maybe I
Speaker 3: can use this in terms of entrepreneurship to get my
Speaker 3: business off the ground, which is part of the reason
Speaker 3: why we kind of go there because we understand that.
Speaker 3: But if we were able to do this in America
Speaker 3: with Earn Elijia, what happens when we go to Africa
Speaker 3: and we go to a crowd and we find entrepreneurs
Speaker 3: that are doing it, and I'm saying like, hey, we
Speaker 3: want to give everybody this story so that the people
Speaker 3: here can now find opportunities in this story. Right. It's
Speaker 3: one thing to hear us do it, but it's even
Speaker 3: a better story when I hear people that are from
Speaker 3: where they're from actual doing it with the step of us.
Speaker 3: Because I think the most important thing for us is,
Speaker 3: yes we have intelligence, right, Yes we have a voice,
Speaker 3: Yes we have a platform, but most importantly we build trust. Right,
Speaker 3: Like every week we're talking to people, every day we're
Speaker 3: talking to people, and so when people build up that trust,
Speaker 3: they feel like, Okay, what are they going to do next?
Speaker 3: Because if they do something, I know they're going to
Speaker 3: give us to realist information possible so that we can
Speaker 3: benefit from it.
Speaker 4: And that's why we started Eyo Africa too for localized content,
Speaker 4: because the entrepreneurship aspect, people can always draw inspiration, but
Speaker 4: it's a lot of nuances. So we actually started a
Speaker 4: new division called Eyo Africa and that's local like not
Speaker 4: one clopt local content. It's about six countries right now.
Speaker 4: We're looking to expand it.
Speaker 6: Not to welcome to in one of these countries by
Speaker 6: a government, like is there anybody like that doesn't necessarily
Speaker 6: like you said that, they were surprised at people speaking
Speaker 6: so openly.
Speaker 3: One government.
Speaker 4: I won't mention the name, okay, because you know politics
Speaker 4: is tricky. Well, we was affiliated with a person and
Speaker 4: we was about to go and they was like, wait,
Speaker 4: they had to figure out the affiliation Andrew Tate.
Speaker 2: That would.
Speaker 3: That's great.
Speaker 4: But I'll say this though, one thing is like another thing.
Speaker 4: In America. A lot of countries in the world, you
Speaker 4: just can't talk about the government like that's one thing
Speaker 4: in America.
Speaker 3: I think we take for granted you say anything.
Speaker 4: About the president, about Congress for the most part, for
Speaker 4: the most part, for.
Speaker 3: The most part, now.
Speaker 4: You go to some of these other countries, you say
Speaker 4: something about the leader.
Speaker 3: Yeah, for sure.
Speaker 2: I avoid speaking about politics, so good would person say
Speaker 2: to me, you're from America, Yeah, he goes, you're president?
Speaker 3: All right? Man sniggers over there. I changed the subject
Speaker 3: so bad. And I don't know. I can't lie to you.
Speaker 3: When Obama was in office, I would live. I would
Speaker 3: speak so freely about the like of them. I'm about
Speaker 3: Obama was cool to these people. You don't know.
Speaker 2: You don't know, like you don't know what out of
Speaker 2: the friend of it is with Trump. You don't know
Speaker 2: if they might be an agent, might be somewhat thinks
Speaker 2: damn it the aar and like.
Speaker 3: They like in Russia. Yo, you know, and it's crazy.
Speaker 2: So I'm sorry to get political, but let me let
Speaker 2: me ask you.
Speaker 3: Do you have a stance on Trump? Is he good
Speaker 3: because he's known for last term? This is water right?
Speaker 2: Yeah, last term people he gave out the Stemmys.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I ain't gonna lie. I'm not. I don't listen.
Speaker 3: You know.
Speaker 2: I was like, Yo, I wasn't paying for dinners like
Speaker 2: my brother friends.
Speaker 3: You ain't get broke. Christmas Miami were created. Everybody talking
Speaker 3: about Miami let meat.
Speaker 2: It was during the BBB joint, right, so we have
Speaker 2: to film, we have to film, so.
Speaker 3: We rushing. We just go get some Moet.
Speaker 2: We didn't have the ace of Spade, which is the
Speaker 2: the you know, you know, the.
Speaker 3: Best on the planet.
Speaker 5: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: We didn't have it when we went and got some
Speaker 2: some Moett real quick, right just before Jay had made
Speaker 2: the deal.
Speaker 3: So you know, everyone's bored in the crib, so that he.
Speaker 2: Must he must have saw this ship and he's like, yo, man,
Speaker 2: I thought you would be like, you know, you funk
Speaker 2: with the owners. And I'm like, He's like, do you
Speaker 2: know mister Moett. I'm like, no, I don't. I do
Speaker 2: not know, mister Moett.
Speaker 3: No I don't.
Speaker 2: And he's like, I was like, yo, but they ran
Speaker 2: out of ace out here. He's like, Nori, they don't
Speaker 2: run out of a I said, I'm gonna go with
Speaker 2: and I had to literally go to each store and
Speaker 2: be like, yo, what's your aspade that they're like, yo,
Speaker 2: we ran out, We ran out. We ran out, ran out.
Speaker 2: I swear to God, That's what I'm giving you that
Speaker 2: I'm saying. How much money was being splent out here.
Speaker 3: I'm talking about ran the hood.
Speaker 2: Why do you even got Miami, Cody, That's what I got.
Speaker 4: Got number number one COVID city and in America was Atlanta.
Speaker 2: That was Atlanta never closed. Brother, that was the best
Speaker 2: time in the work was I was. I was out
Speaker 2: in Atlanta, back and forth like nothing. That never happened.
Speaker 2: But the number, the number two was Miami. You know,
Speaker 2: I know we spent a lot of time in Miami
Speaker 2: during COVID, bro it was a great time. Granted I
Speaker 2: did catch COVID in Miami for the first time.
Speaker 3: Goddamn it. You gotta leave a suthing coming from Miami.
Speaker 3: I'm leaving vacation Lea never it was like twenty people dinners.
Speaker 3: But so Trump, let's get up Trump.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So I think that Trump is an opportunist and he's
Speaker 4: making the most of this opportunity right now.
Speaker 3: Man, he said, how much you make three billion dollars? Man?
Speaker 4: Since he became president this time eighteen Like yo, he's
Speaker 4: bringing up I've actually never seen somebody take full advantage
Speaker 4: of an opportunity like this, Like that's that's part.
Speaker 3: And that's hard. That's no, no, no, no, no, no
Speaker 3: no no.
Speaker 2: I'm just saying, that's the one thing I wish would
Speaker 2: have did. I wish he would have went out with
Speaker 2: a bang like I wouldn't I would is legal for
Speaker 2: you to something like that?
Speaker 3: Like that is the thought process exactly. But you're looking
Speaker 3: at it like, yo, how was he able to do
Speaker 3: all these things and still fall in a kind of
Speaker 3: legal category? Trump? What he's doing now? And you're think about,
Speaker 3: like all the presidents have come before him, they never
Speaker 3: tried any of these things.
Speaker 4: Now, he don't give a Let me give you all.
Speaker 4: Let me give y'all a quiz. So, how many stock
Speaker 4: trades do you think that? That's not a clip about
Speaker 4: this so I know the answer? Stock clays? How many
Speaker 4: stock trade do you think that President Clinton took during
Speaker 4: his eight years of being a president?
Speaker 3: I don't even know.
Speaker 2: Take a guess fifteen?
Speaker 3: Zero? Okay.
Speaker 4: How many stock trades do you think George Bush took
Speaker 4: during his eight years of being a zero? How many
Speaker 4: stock trades do you think that Joe Biden took during zero?
Speaker 4: Barack Obama?
Speaker 3: Zero? How many stock trades do you think that Donald
Speaker 3: Trump to in the first two years? Two years? What's it?
Speaker 3: What's it?
Speaker 1: You know?
Speaker 3: Eleven? Thirty six hundred what two years? Now, imagine that
Speaker 3: the guy who.
Speaker 2: Waits you'd talk about, right, so what is he taking
Speaker 2: stocks out on everything?
Speaker 6: He knows what policy is about to inside trade?
Speaker 3: I love it likely, right if a company like palent
Speaker 3: here which has defense contracts, which has government contracts, and
Speaker 3: you know they're signing off on those contracts, and stock
Speaker 3: is trading at thirty four dollars and you know they
Speaker 3: about to sign a six billion dollar deal in two
Speaker 3: months once you invest in that, h right, Well the
Speaker 3: policy that with Mark Stewart with the jail for yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, right,
Speaker 3: So that's what I'm saying. You think, like all those
Speaker 3: presidents did nothing, this guy has done thirty six hundred
Speaker 3: in the past two years. It feels like it's illegal.
Speaker 3: The people who are making policy right and changing laws
Speaker 3: and changing restrictions are actually the people that are investing
Speaker 3: in the companies that are doing it. That's like twenty
Speaker 3: that's like twenty trades a day.
Speaker 6: It's more like and to be fair, it's not just him,
Speaker 6: it's the whole of Congress on both sides of the aisle.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but nobody doing that follow that he's doing it? No, No, conflict, prediction, trading, prediction,
Speaker 3: market the market mar The last part is on this
Speaker 3: right because number one, he makes three billion in crypto
Speaker 3: and some becomes a billionaire from crypto. He's a crypto
Speaker 3: friendly president. They're going to again change policy to make
Speaker 3: sure that the crypto economy the flourishes, right, because they
Speaker 3: want to be out of that. But the next part
Speaker 3: is like what he's done recently where he has true
Speaker 3: social his own social media platform, and he's watching this
Speaker 3: pattern when he says the company the right, the company
Speaker 3: appreciates He's done this like three or four times over
Speaker 3: the past year. But he's saying now, like look, if
Speaker 3: you want that type of like tweet to go directly
Speaker 3: to you pay one hundred thousand.
Speaker 2: Wait, you could pay him to the tweet for you know,
Speaker 2: if you join the subscriptions of marketing, if you join
Speaker 2: a subscription in his social media information before, you.
Speaker 3: Will get the information before the rest of the world.
Speaker 4: But you know what's so crazy, It's like John Morgan
Speaker 4: is Morgan. He said something that was l the hardest
Speaker 4: working people in America make the least the hardest working
Speaker 4: people in America. The harder you work, the broker you're
Speaker 4: going to be. That's the harsh reality of it. These
Speaker 4: people is finding new ways to make money out of dinner.
Speaker 4: From the stock market. They turned that shit into a
Speaker 4: casino with gambling. Now they actually the prediction market is
Speaker 4: so crazy, like you could predict anything. You you could
Speaker 4: predict Donald Trump is gone, say I ran in his speech.
Speaker 4: And if he says I ran in his speech, you
Speaker 4: can make fifty thousand dollars. Like they just finding ways
Speaker 4: to make money that you don't do it, you know,
Speaker 4: I'll be seeing are playing going crazy?
Speaker 3: They just do what he's saying right now. The speech
Speaker 3: writer actually did that, of course because he wrote the speech.
Speaker 3: He been, yeah, it's crazy, bro, And then he went
Speaker 3: on polograph problem market market. I was like, yo, I
Speaker 3: wonder if they're gonna make it by four and you
Speaker 3: say no, he says yes yes. I said, yea, let's
Speaker 3: let's put the odds on it. Just do that without
Speaker 3: even knowing we can just natural thing. How can we
Speaker 3: make money from that?
Speaker 4: And it's like okay. Jeffrey Epstein said this in one
Speaker 4: of them when they was leaking the file. They said, look,
Speaker 4: we don't we don't work for money, we don't work
Speaker 4: for money, like, that's that's beneath us. We just invent
Speaker 4: ways to make money. These motherfuckers are inventing ways to
Speaker 4: make money. That's what the whole subprime mortgage shit was about, right,
Speaker 4: They just making mortgages out of nowhere, subprime mortgages and
Speaker 4: let's let's credit security back loans and fucking like I said,
Speaker 4: now you've got stocks and derivatives, and now you got
Speaker 4: prediction markets, and then and then they got the ship
Speaker 4: where you can do an IPO without actually IPO and
Speaker 4: a company like they just come up with different formulas
Speaker 4: to make money in front of a computer doing nothing,
Speaker 4: while somebody that's actually working in the farm and literally
Speaker 4: breaking it back is getting paid thirty dollars.
Speaker 3: For the day.
Speaker 6: But doesn't that make it feel like our whole financial
Speaker 6: system is on thin ice if that's the way that
Speaker 6: everybody's operating at the top at least one.
Speaker 3: Hundred percent, Yeah, one hundred percent. Absolutely. That's why I said,
Speaker 3: I think the predictive market is like when they say
Speaker 3: the fitting stones, like that's the last fun tea, But
Speaker 3: you said, would say, what the predictive market so cal
Speaker 3: she's the polyly markets of the world. Because when you
Speaker 3: think about, like who's doing that, that's amost feels like
Speaker 3: it's game of five. Like you and I might have
Speaker 3: the education and say we're not gonna do it. Nory
Speaker 3: say he's already gonna do it right, But like kids,
Speaker 3: kids are gonna do it right. It's the same. It's
Speaker 3: the thirty year mindset. Right. If I can get a
Speaker 3: kid to start doing that at fourteen, I'm gonna keep
Speaker 3: him for life. Right. You can get into that habit
Speaker 3: of saying, I think Joe Burrow is going to throw
Speaker 3: a touchdown in the first quarter and I'm just thinking
Speaker 3: that it's fantasy football. But that translated into later in
Speaker 3: life when you're doing it for anything, right, Like you're
Speaker 3: talking about somebody that's writing a speech to say that
Speaker 3: I know what he's gonna say. I remember during the
Speaker 3: Super Bowl, who were sitting like, are you think Cardi
Speaker 3: B's gonna come out? I'm looking on polymarket like there's
Speaker 3: a sixty percent chance. I'm getting phone calls like yo,
Speaker 3: she's not coming out.
Speaker 4: I'm like, sure, you know what I'm saying now, people,
Speaker 4: I mean there's people that knew that she was not
Speaker 4: coming out, right, Like if you're around her. You know
Speaker 4: she's coming out or she's not coming out. Now, let's
Speaker 4: say that you bet what you're saying. Okay, okay, okay,
Speaker 4: now people you know, people be like, yo, you have
Speaker 4: made content for a living, y'all do that's not real work?
Speaker 4: Once again, well, the hardest working people in America make
Speaker 4: the least so tight you should find a way to work.
Speaker 3: So what's that shit on Netflix?
Speaker 2: It's like a thirty six six minute documentary. It's about
Speaker 2: this shit, just sort of ship and social. No, I
Speaker 2: don't think it's that name, but it's a guy he
Speaker 2: invested and then he knew like someone knew inside, and.
Speaker 3: He pulled all his money out because of that percent.
Speaker 3: It is that illegal?
Speaker 2: So if they say with Shad, it's going to go
Speaker 2: to Blimpe's and order a turkey and cheese, and I
Speaker 2: know you don't eat.
Speaker 3: Turkey and cheese, is that illegal for me to go
Speaker 3: on bet and say he's going to order? It's not illegal.
Speaker 4: If you know that, it's illegal. If I tell you yo,
Speaker 4: I'm not going okay, okay. If you just use what
Speaker 4: you know, okay, then that's not illegal. But if you
Speaker 4: have what we call inside information, you know for a fact,
Speaker 4: it's impossible for me to go heare, because I'm here
Speaker 4: with you.
Speaker 3: So now you have information at.
Speaker 4: The public is not privy too, but Congress, so two
Speaker 4: weeks before COVID hit the stock market crash, when COVID
Speaker 4: hit two weeks before COVID hit, like sixty percent of
Speaker 4: the stock of Congress sold all their stocks because they
Speaker 4: had the information before we did. So they knew that
Speaker 4: the world was about to shut down. They acted on
Speaker 4: that information. Think about that.
Speaker 3: So they get it. So if they know, imagine what
Speaker 3: the presidents go. Look at in February of this year
Speaker 3: and right before we go to conflict with Iran, which
Speaker 3: is kind of out of nowhere, Marcus at the all
Speaker 3: time high. Look what it does for the next three weeks. Right,
Speaker 3: if you look at the Defense secretary, well was he called,
Speaker 3: it's not even the Defense secretary secretary of war. Look
Speaker 3: at the things that he's invested in, right, he's invested
Speaker 3: in the war technology companies, defense companies. RTX is the
Speaker 3: company he's invested in companies world. Why you think he
Speaker 3: doesn't know anything that we're about to go to conflict
Speaker 3: with the company.
Speaker 6: Trump partnered all of them already he already said, do't
Speaker 6: where you're all gonna be pardoned.
Speaker 2: That's another gangster shit he did too. He part of
Speaker 2: the whole, the whole white boy grew, but.
Speaker 3: Already the rest of Yeah, he parted his whole staff,
Speaker 3: like everybody, you're good, don't worry about it. Keeping out.
Speaker 3: But he can't even as a sitting president, Like there's
Speaker 3: certain limitations that he cannot be found liable for, right,
Speaker 3: and he's made sure that that's happened, and he's put
Speaker 3: a Supreme Court in place, right, Like, he's put justices
Speaker 3: on that court that hopefully are going to ruin his paper.
Speaker 3: And now they haven't always done it, but the likelihood
Speaker 3: it is, like you got a better chance if they didn't.
Speaker 3: Like this ship.
Speaker 4: Remember we was in Dubai. But what was the name
Speaker 4: of the card that card? Credit card? Dude showed us,
Speaker 4: Oh oh so that was it. He was like the
Speaker 4: black He's like, you hurt a black card. I'm like yeah,

Speaker 3: the ship. Wow. So you got to be invited to
Speaker 3: get the black card as well. You gotta spend a certain.
Speaker 4: Hundred percent hundred percent. But we heard about the black card.
Speaker 4: I never heard of it, and this was this was
Speaker 4: from a retail American bank that issues it.
Speaker 3: Wow. Like he's just a guy in Dubaidom.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, he's in Dubais So I'm just like, yo,
Speaker 4: this is just crazy man. It's like, you know, say, ignorance, ignorance,
Speaker 4: it's bliss. Yeah, true because when you when you're ignorant,
Speaker 4: you can go through life kind of care free. But
Speaker 4: when you start to know things, then you have a
Speaker 4: burden of responsibility. There's a burden of responsibility that comes
Speaker 4: with the truth.
Speaker 3: When you know, you just eat.
Speaker 4: Fast food with McDonald's all types of shit. You ignorant,
Speaker 4: you're a little kid. Then you start to do the
Speaker 4: knowledge and you're like, damn, this is causing how blood
Speaker 4: pressure and do betes is fucking up my brain cells.
Speaker 3: Dad.
Speaker 4: Now it's like, not only do you feel bad about it,
Speaker 4: you feel bad when somebody you love now you got
Speaker 4: to teach them. Now they getting mad at you, they
Speaker 4: don't want to be around you. But it's a responsibility
Speaker 4: that comes with education.
Speaker 3: That's what we have.
Speaker 4: It's a responsibility that comes with education. Like I said,
Speaker 4: we know that people have been ignorant for a long time.
Speaker 4: So now when you see some shit, you can't unsee it.
Speaker 4: So now you change your life. But now you got
Speaker 4: to change other people's lives and it's like what Jay said,
Speaker 4: we ain't get through to you yet. We still got
Speaker 4: to deal with the fucking idiots that still don't fully
Speaker 4: understand it, like while investing is gambling, or like fuck
Speaker 4: it yolo, or while whatever I life insurance, if I
Speaker 4: don't fuck my kids, like you know what I'm.
Speaker 3: Saying, I ain't thinking about them, Like I'm not thinking
Speaker 3: about dying. Why would I get Like and sure that's
Speaker 3: the ship, but like when people see it, they're like, oh,
Speaker 3: what are these guys doing again? Like we go to Dobbles,
Speaker 3: They're like, what the hell a y'all doing in Dobbles.
Speaker 3: I'm like, well, that's where two hundred and eighty one
Speaker 3: billionaires meet every year. Who want to know what they're
Speaker 3: talking about? Oh no, they probably a little nati. I
Speaker 3: have to get sacrificed in the mountains. I'm like, what
Speaker 3: they're talking about? Because once we hear what they're talking about,
Speaker 3: we come back. We'll be sitting there like, oh shit,
Speaker 3: like they have no idea what these dudes are making
Speaker 3: the decisions for the entire world right, and we're coming
Speaker 3: back to tell y'all like, Yo, this is what's happened.
Speaker 3: They're like, nah, Broyo, you at that freestyle?
Speaker 2: Though?
Speaker 3: All right? Cool?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 3: You almost feel like shit, should I tell these people?
Speaker 3: Are they ready to handle what we're about to tell them?
Speaker 3: From what we're hearing? And most times the ain't not
Speaker 3: earlier And I was in La working with Donna, Dre.
Speaker 2: See everybody telling it saying that this was like the
Speaker 2: greatest concert.
Speaker 3: On earth the three days. But then I saw what you, yep,
Speaker 3: you was like to rock.
Speaker 4: We was he went all three days. I went Saturday
Speaker 4: and I went Sunday. Sunday to me was the best
Speaker 4: concept I've ever been in. And that's the one that
Speaker 4: started at two am. That's twelve am. Twelve Yeah, it
Speaker 4: was technically Monday morning fast.
Speaker 3: Okay. It was the best show I've ever been to
Speaker 3: in my life.
Speaker 4: It's also the worst logistical ship I've ever seen in
Speaker 4: my whole entire life.
Speaker 3: Both days can be true.
Speaker 4: Leaving, yo, Leaving on Saturday took me two and a
Speaker 4: half hours to get out of the Bronx and you
Speaker 4: know Yankee Stadium, the bridge to Manhattan is right there.
Speaker 4: Hours to cross the bridge. Logistical night man, Yo, we
Speaker 4: was outside, he was inside. I got there A little
Speaker 4: later on Sunday, we was outside for four and a
Speaker 4: half hours and ten thousand people. Yeah, was outside a
Speaker 4: Yankee stadium, filthy four. I've never seen nothing, you know.
Speaker 3: Like Okay, but wasn't it because people rushed the doors.
Speaker 3: That's what they said. That's what they said. I've seen
Speaker 3: it online, so they said side, we don't know that. Inside,
Speaker 3: we're just waiting, and I'm like, yo, d nice he
Speaker 3: went off a long time ago because the.
Speaker 2: Nice because you know why the Bronx wasn't being the
Speaker 2: Bronx Friday and Saturday.
Speaker 3: Like you had, like it's the last day. We let
Speaker 3: y'all know, y'all in the Bronx.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying, because a lot of the
Speaker 2: Bronx people didn't get tickets so that this is their way.
Speaker 4: But you know what, it was an older crowd, which
Speaker 4: was help help because most people that was that's great
Speaker 4: critic It was thirty forty fifty wow, so nobody really
Speaker 4: trying to fight, and if it was young.
Speaker 3: Just fucked up. Yeah, aggrevated, but nobody really wanted. Nobody left.
Speaker 3: But everybody say nobody. It didn't get violent, nothing like that.
Speaker 3: We never even felt like old niggas. Old niggas ain't
Speaker 3: got it exact exactly. It's a mature crowd. At a
Speaker 3: certain point, everybody got that same feeling like this is
Speaker 3: gonna be something historical. It just had that feeling like
Speaker 3: this is the night where we already know that the
Speaker 3: Night one was for reasonable doubt. We know Night two
Speaker 3: was for blueprint. We kind of don't know what Night
Speaker 3: three is. But it feels like it's gonna be a
Speaker 3: Melloy or wild card. You feel like he's going to
Speaker 3: bring some people back. You can start to see that
Speaker 3: people in the city, I mean, New York City is
Speaker 3: going crazy, right. You got all of these events happening.
Speaker 3: The next started, the nixt started it, you had obviously
Speaker 3: the World Cup ended there.
Speaker 2: Trying to bite off down. I ain't gonna lie like
Speaker 2: they saw, sorry, they trying to like what we did
Speaker 2: at times.
Speaker 3: Not one was like that, nothing like that. I'm sorry.
Speaker 3: Remember what you was talking about all the things that
Speaker 3: happened in New York at the time, So you felt
Speaker 3: like everybody's there, like you was there. I was there
Speaker 3: Friday night. You saw the people that would attend this
Speaker 3: Saturday night, same people. I'm like, yo, this bron there
Speaker 3: like everybody's there, and so Sunday kind of felt like that,
Speaker 3: and during the time where everybody's waiting, I'm just like, shit,
Speaker 3: I'm starting to think about from an event standpoint, like
Speaker 3: if he doesn't get on stage by time or they
Speaker 3: gonna start, you know that this is gonna be a fine.
Speaker 3: If he doesn't get get off about eleven, well, if
Speaker 3: he doesn't get off by twelve, or maybe they're gonna
Speaker 3: pay the fine. Meanwhile, he's asking, like from outside, yo,
Speaker 3: what the fuck's going on? I'm like, yo, bro, I
Speaker 3: don't know what. He was like, Yo, they just shut
Speaker 3: down the gates. I'm like, what you mean? And you outside? Yeah,
Speaker 3: I'm like, I'm like, they shut down the gates. I'm like,
Speaker 3: oh shit. I'm like, if they shut down the gates
Speaker 3: and there's people outside, he can't start to show because
Speaker 3: if he started to show, they about to bump rush
Speaker 3: the ship. That would have been so And I get
Speaker 3: a lot of credit to him and his team for realizing,
Speaker 3: like we told it, we cannot do this because he
Speaker 3: knows the Reaper cousins. If he gets on that microphone
Speaker 3: and they hear like that, this whole shit gonna get
Speaker 3: shut down. Now. The credit to the people that were
Speaker 3: inside because again they sat there. People were patient, it
Speaker 3: wasn't too hot outside. People just waiting because they wanted
Speaker 3: to be part of the moment. And we just sat
Speaker 3: there for four hours. Right, Nobody wants to get out
Speaker 3: because you're like, yo, if I go get something, they
Speaker 3: start to show I don't even it's so crowded. I
Speaker 3: might not get back. I'm miss something. So we're just
Speaker 3: sitting there like get you know what's so crazy?
Speaker 4: Though I was outside, it wasn't that bad because it
Speaker 4: was a vibe. I'm just running into random people that
Speaker 4: I hadn't seen, people like y'all fuck with the show.
Speaker 4: We have a conversations, We're trying to go from one
Speaker 4: place to another place to get like it became like
Speaker 4: a whole scavenger hunt of how to try to get
Speaker 4: in and outside. But it was so crazy because it's like,
Speaker 4: here's my thing, because we do events, right, so we
Speaker 4: know that you work with the facility. So Yankee Stadium,
Speaker 4: that shit was terrible. They had a complete failure. They
Speaker 4: had like eighty year old men and like sixteen year
Speaker 4: old kids. Yeah, their security was completely unequipped at all. Right, NYPD,
Speaker 4: I don't know what the fuck they did because they
Speaker 4: changed the whole route. They came in Sunday, they blocked
Speaker 4: the bridge off. You know the bridge from Halllem to
Speaker 4: Yankee Stadium. They blocked that bridge off. I knew we
Speaker 4: was in trouble from that point because that wasn't blocked
Speaker 4: off on Saturday. They blocked the bridge off. They got
Speaker 4: cops there. They're the ones that called the Yankee Stadium
Speaker 4: security inside. Imagine this, so we outside because I got
Speaker 4: there right before they closed the doors. We had the
Speaker 4: entrance for the suite. They had closed the doors. Yankee
Speaker 4: Stadium security is already like undermanned and not trained. They're
Speaker 4: not even real security guards. NYPD comes. They completely undermanned. Also,
Speaker 4: they call all Yankee Stadium security inside. That's a dumb
Speaker 4: ass decision. After ten minutes, people realized there's no security
Speaker 4: inside and they bump bushed the barrier so that I'm like,
Speaker 4: oh shit, this should get ugly.
Speaker 3: Luckily they didn't get too crazy.
Speaker 4: But NYPD, I don't know what the fuck they did,
Speaker 4: Like they were completely clueless and helpless, and if they
Speaker 4: actually made it worse. So the rock Nation thing, I'm
Speaker 4: just saying Live Nation, Rock Nation, have it worked that together?
Speaker 4: They might have just been Live Nation. You got to
Speaker 4: coordinate with the venue because they was like, well the
Speaker 4: venue had just entrance closed, and they well, you should
Speaker 4: have coordinated that. You I'm sure you've been speaking with
Speaker 4: Yankee Stadium for months. You got to go through, how
Speaker 4: many interests do we have open? We're gonna need all
Speaker 4: interests open. We're gonna need this da da da. The
Speaker 4: event planner got to take some responsibility for that. Yankee
Speaker 4: Stadium one hundred percent take responsibility. But you can't have
Speaker 4: logistical failure three nights in a row. One night, okay,
Speaker 4: fuck it, Saturday, we're gonna get it right.
Speaker 3: You fucked up Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It felt like
Speaker 3: it was almost a sabotage, like they wanted it to
Speaker 3: be crazy. They wanted something to happen, and that's kind
Speaker 3: of what it created.
Speaker 2: Like that was an advocate. What if it's just something
Speaker 2: that they wasn't prepared for it, like you said, but
Speaker 2: they want to be you. You said, like you said,
Speaker 2: you do events right, and there's been there's been times
Speaker 2: you you probably estimate this certain amount of honey coming
Speaker 2: and then you know, like like again there's there's there's
Speaker 2: there's people that that's tagle laws like like me, I'm sorry,
Speaker 2: I'm sorry, like some people like related, right, Like they
Speaker 2: used to call me a come up artist, right, like
Speaker 2: meaning like I used to get there and once I
Speaker 2: get there, people call and get the tickets like they
Speaker 2: want to know that I'm there, right, So what if
Speaker 2: it was like a situation like that where it's like
Speaker 2: you know what you know the first night, you know
Speaker 2: what I mean, and all these crowds and it was.
Speaker 3: Just unbearable, like they wasn't prepared for day two. Day
Speaker 3: have it figured out? Day two, you should have it
Speaker 3: finished figured out. But like he set the attendance for
Speaker 3: a live event, right, So he's done tours when Yankee
Speaker 3: Stadium was part of it, right, like when he was
Speaker 3: with eminem when they did justin Simbolate. So this is
Speaker 3: not something that's not unfamiliar to them. In fact, when
Speaker 3: the Yankees playing they got a playoff game. It actually
Speaker 3: holds more people than what Jay had that those those nights,
Speaker 3: and so you're looking from a sheer population standpoint, it
Speaker 3: can hold up to fifty two thousand and his max
Speaker 3: he had forty four thousand, so that means that there
Speaker 3: was less people. Logistically, it was just not mapped out right.
Speaker 3: I don't know that I can only enter through Gate
Speaker 3: two if I have this ticket, or I can only
Speaker 3: introduce Gate eight if I got this ticket, and so
Speaker 3: you start getting people piled up. You got a VIP
Speaker 3: line that's converted. It was just logigically confusing. The reason
Speaker 3: why I wasn't chaos is because the love for ja Yeah,
Speaker 3: but people love him so much that they were like,
Speaker 3: we're not going to fuck this up for him. This
Speaker 3: is and it could have been. I think the people
Speaker 3: that came yes, that made historic. I don't think it
Speaker 3: was his best show, but I think the night was
Speaker 3: so historic. But it could have been something that was
Speaker 3: I mean, the would be talked about forever. Still, it
Speaker 3: would have been different if that doesn't happen. But people
Speaker 3: love him so much since they didn't want to fuck kurby.
Speaker 2: Your enthusiasm, Yeah, yeah, Remember the episode with Larry David
Speaker 2: and he kept asking him, he goes, he goes in
Speaker 2: the rest of way, he goes, your food has been
Speaker 2: delayed because there was a small a small I forget
Speaker 2: what he called it.
Speaker 3: In the back.
Speaker 2: It was a small something in the back right. And
Speaker 2: my point is do we blame gay because, like I.
Speaker 3: Said, I don't blame jay Z.
Speaker 4: He actually he I think he knew he had to
Speaker 4: perform at the highest level possible and he gave a
Speaker 4: hell of a show all the guests that was there.
Speaker 4: But you could just tell he didn't take no breaks
Speaker 4: throughout the whole show. Once he got on, he knew,
Speaker 4: like I got to make sure I give these people
Speaker 4: what they paid for. So they stayed, and they stayed
Speaker 4: and it was a great show. Kudos to him. Like
Speaker 4: to me, that was the best concert I've ever been to.
Speaker 3: But but I'm just but I'm just saying, but everybody
Speaker 3: makes mistakes.
Speaker 4: But I'm just saying from a Live Nation standpoint, Rock
Speaker 4: Nation Live Nation, Yankee Stadium, n YPD, they just that
Speaker 4: was a logistical failure. I don't think he's the one
Speaker 4: that's in a meeting of Rock Nation Live. Like you know,
Speaker 4: I'm saying, I don't think so. So you know, they
Speaker 4: could just they just gotta do better next time. It's
Speaker 4: not it's nothing that you know, learning experience, L.
Speaker 2: See. This is the reason why like those first like
Speaker 2: I believe if he would have did like almost like
Speaker 2: a residency like Bad Bunny. I think I think he
Speaker 2: could have sold it out every single time, every single time,
Speaker 2: and I think he would have got like like the
Speaker 2: first couple of shows. I believe Bad Bunny had like
Speaker 2: someone of the same type of problem. But by the
Speaker 2: time I got there, I got there like maybe like
Speaker 2: a month into his ship. No no, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: I was I was in the middle. I was in
Speaker 2: the Joe went to last week. Joe went to last week,
Speaker 2: and he went to the last three weeks.
Speaker 3: I went the third week. It was tight.
Speaker 1: Like that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I might go to the Paris show. Think
Speaker 2: about London is what is that? It's on Beyon's birthday level.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying. I think something, You know
Speaker 3: what I mean. Paris is not eleven, the tenth.
Speaker 2: Paris is the tenth year. I'm supposed to be out
Speaker 2: there anyway. So I'm about it around and we'll we'll
Speaker 2: get back. So another thing, my friend Jamie Leftfrackt told
Speaker 2: me where it's like, you know, I was asking him
Speaker 2: like and he said, invest in rich enrich rich, like
Speaker 2: like like if I wanted to buy property like that,
Speaker 2: I want to keep like, you know, enriched communities, like
Speaker 2: and like like you know what I'm saying. And I
Speaker 2: thought about it, right because uh, for the friend of
Speaker 2: my Eric, everybody knows Eric. Eric kept sending me things
Speaker 2: and I was trying to do the flip ship, right,
Speaker 2: go get a house, a sixth bedroom. I was gonna
Speaker 2: get a six six where's that said, six family house?
Speaker 2: Get it, get a property manager, do all that ship
Speaker 2: multi family, and the multi family didn't go, and then
Speaker 2: I was going to get another joint that I wanted
Speaker 2: to rent out, but I wanted to like live in there,
Speaker 2: like so I wanted to some fla ship.
Speaker 3: Is that something that you guys agree with? I think?
Speaker 4: I mean, you're getting a rich neighborhood is going to
Speaker 4: appreciate over the cost of time.
Speaker 3: I appreciates, I think, all right, but.
Speaker 4: The entry level is harder to get into, and then
Speaker 4: it's a really bad neighborhood and there's a lower price
Speaker 4: point obviously, but you're gonna have to deal with issues.
Speaker 4: The slightly dangerous neighborhood is probably the sweet spot because
Speaker 4: that's the one that's changing.
Speaker 2: Almost middle class, lower middle class, lower low lowers.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like the one is about to be gentrified. Yeah,
Speaker 3: the one that's just about it planning.
Speaker 2: There's no arguments that they got the Starbucks with no cappucinos.
Speaker 4: In ten years, you're going to say, oh, ship best
Speaker 4: died now looks like Fort Green right when Fort Green
Speaker 4: now looks like soh.
Speaker 3: But this area was winning with this was yo yah. Yeah.
Speaker 4: You know when I first came to Winwood, wow yo
Speaker 4: when what was so dangerous?
Speaker 3: It was like dangerous night.
Speaker 4: It was like Night of the Living zombies where it
Speaker 4: was so many crackheads on. I hadn't seen no ship
Speaker 4: like that because I was born in the eighties. I
Speaker 4: didn't grow up in the eighties. I grew up in
Speaker 4: the nineties. So I heard stories about how there used
Speaker 4: to be one hundred fiends lined up on the street
Speaker 4: shit like that. I have physically never seen that before.
Speaker 4: But I was like, holy shit, this is what this
Speaker 4: is what looks like like you know what I'm.
Speaker 3: Saying, Like I was, And then I came back four
Speaker 3: years later and it's art bozo. It was so dangerous.
Speaker 6: The only people that would do arn't out here was
Speaker 6: a graffiti artist because the cost wasn't fucking with them.
Speaker 6: So that's why it became all these murals and that
Speaker 6: started to so how how did they because this ship
Speaker 6: just changed. This was the mick of like hip hop
Speaker 6: in Miami, Like we would have all our hip hop parties,
Speaker 6: everybody from Miami would come.
Speaker 4: Out, so nation was out here. They would they would do.
Speaker 4: How did they clean the shit up so quickly? It
Speaker 4: was it was big money that came eventually, but it
Speaker 4: was the galleries. So it happens all the graffiti artists
Speaker 4: in the city. They had these things called pennance.
Speaker 6: So it's all these walls where they all agreed, we're
Speaker 6: gonna all do our murals here. We won't fight here,
Speaker 6: but the cops aren't fucking with us because it's this
Speaker 6: neighborhood is like off limits even to the cops.
Speaker 3: So you start to see all this art here. And
Speaker 3: then these warehouses were.
Speaker 6: They were just warehouses, you know, abandoned warehouses, car body shops.
Speaker 6: And then they started to do galleries popping up around
Speaker 6: the fact that there was like all this graffiti and
Speaker 6: art like that became like the cool factors. So these
Speaker 6: little mini galleries started popping up, and they started doing
Speaker 6: little art walks where you would go to the galleries
Speaker 6: serve you free wine. And then you would have like
Speaker 6: these like people that were like trying to be cool
Speaker 6: into the art world, but they was just like like
Speaker 6: on the ground level it was different. But it was
Speaker 6: the graffiti artists that really had this going. And then
Speaker 6: going back into the nineties, we would come out here
Speaker 6: and there was this area called Well Women was like
Speaker 6: a predominantly Puerto Rican area, like a little Puerto Rican
Speaker 6: pocket in Miami, and they had Virtual Clemented Park and
Speaker 6: Zoos Nation was pretty heavy out here, and they would
Speaker 6: do a lot of hip hops out here, yeah in Miami.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, it had like a chapter in Miami. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and so they would they would do security out here. Well. Yeah,
Speaker 3: it was that.
Speaker 6: This is like late eighties, early nineties. Going into the
Speaker 6: mid nineties, they had the thing called Hoodstock that this
Speaker 6: dude DJ Raw, he was infamous out here in Winwood.
Speaker 6: He did this huge concert free to the whole neighborhood
Speaker 6: out here with all the top hip hop artists, and
Speaker 6: it was.
Speaker 3: It was rivalry.
Speaker 6: When how can I be down? If you guys know
Speaker 6: that convention that used to happen in the nineties. Yeah,
Speaker 6: Peter Thomas def Jam was a big hip Hop convention. Yeah,
Speaker 6: so that was what was That's what really started this
Speaker 6: whole area. But then what happened is it started to
Speaker 6: rise in value, and then people started.
Speaker 2: Selling property here like like you feel like I feel
Speaker 2: like from Brickle.
Speaker 3: They stopped building, they started building, and everything starts moving on.
Speaker 4: Like even Brickle in the early nineties was crazyhood too. Yeah,
Speaker 4: well they said, now it's like a little Haiti.
Speaker 6: It's been getting Yeah, it take time because there it's
Speaker 6: like little Havana.
Speaker 3: There's so much culture that they're fighting. They're trying to
Speaker 3: fight a little bit. Yeah, it's like someone story.
Speaker 4: One dude we actually ran into a few times. I
Speaker 4: guess he's like one of the community leaders, and he
Speaker 4: was saying, like theyre trying to fight against it because
Speaker 4: they even tried to change the name I think like
Speaker 4: Lemon City.
Speaker 3: I think or Lemon City, something like that, Brigle West.
Speaker 2: So so let me ask you that's crazy. This is
Speaker 2: the reason why I asked. Right, you know, I'm from
Speaker 2: New York City. I love pizza, and I went to
Speaker 2: cut the slices the other day, Right, I was the
Speaker 2: one in Manhattan, right boom so.
Speaker 3: Just out the blue.
Speaker 2: I had a photo shoot right by the Brooklyn Bridge,
Speaker 2: right somewhere. I was like, right over the Brooklyn Bridge.
Speaker 2: So I wanted to cut the slices again. So I
Speaker 2: was like, all right, cool. It was like, where's the
Speaker 2: closest one? It was in Brooklyn, right, I didn't even
Speaker 2: check the neighborhood, Like you know what I'm trying to say,
Speaker 2: Like back in the days, you like going to Brooklyn?
Speaker 3: What part of Brooklyn part of that?
Speaker 2: Like we're going to best stop, a best stop like
Speaker 2: like Jennifications.
Speaker 3: So comfortable happens quick.
Speaker 2: I didn't even realize what I was doing. I was like,
Speaker 2: this is still Brooklyn. Like, so I'm asking, is justification
Speaker 2: a good thing?
Speaker 4: The definition of gentrification is a positive thing. It's turning
Speaker 4: lower income neighborhood into a middle class neighborhood to improve
Speaker 4: the residence, lives and infrastructure. That's the definition Dictionary definition.
Speaker 4: The condentation is negative. The condentation is pushing people out,
Speaker 4: pushing people out, changing the culture that was once there
Speaker 4: and now reframing it.
Speaker 3: So it's like.
Speaker 4: Anybody should want to improve their neighborhood. I think what
Speaker 4: people don't appreciate is like the colonization aspect of it.
Speaker 4: Of like we've been doing block parties here for twenty
Speaker 4: years and nobody ever gets hurt. And then you are
Speaker 4: one person you move here, and now you call the
Speaker 4: cops because you don't like the sound of the music. Well,
Speaker 4: you should have never moved here if you didn't like
Speaker 4: the sound of the music, because it happens every Sunday, right.
Speaker 2: So advocate real quick, right because a lot of people say,
Speaker 2: then why didn't you buy the neighborhood?
Speaker 3: Right? No, one hundred percent. And I think that because
Speaker 3: because when you say you, I think that's part of
Speaker 3: it too. I'm gonna let you finish it. But I
Speaker 3: think when we hear gentrification, we think that white, wealthy
Speaker 3: people coming into black neighborhoods. That's what we can take.
Speaker 3: That's what we think. They already owned the properties though,
Speaker 3: but we don't. We're not doing it. And that's the
Speaker 3: problem too, to own the hood. It is, but you
Speaker 3: got it, and two different questions at one.
Speaker 4: This is it's like it's like don't they say, like,
Speaker 4: don't sell Grandma's house, right, like don't sell your home.
Speaker 4: And because it's like, okay, sell your home and you
Speaker 4: move to the suburbs. But then when you moved to
Speaker 4: the suburbs. Somebody from the suburbs is moving into your neighborhood.
Speaker 4: So now it's the reverse situation that that's happening. So
Speaker 4: you can look at it from a few different standpoints,
Speaker 4: But I think the first thing is that you got
Speaker 4: to have pride in in your community. That's why I
Speaker 4: love Rwanda so much because Rwanda not only is the
Speaker 4: cleanest country in Africa, it's also one of the safest
Speaker 4: countries in Africa.
Speaker 3: I think that it's a direct correlation. How you do
Speaker 3: one thing is how you do everything.
Speaker 4: Direct correlation to what Okay, if you feel comfortable throwing
Speaker 4: trash on a tree on the street, pissing on the alley,
Speaker 4: treating your shit like you're gonna feel comfortable robbing somebody,
Speaker 4: you're gonna feel that may seem like an extreme, but
Speaker 4: it's true. If you feel if you feel like I
Speaker 4: got to leave this place cleaner than what I saw it,
Speaker 4: You're gonna think twice about any level of crime about
Speaker 4: It changes the whole.
Speaker 3: It changes the whole dynamics. It changed the whole dynamics.
Speaker 4: I always said at a lot of our problem in
Speaker 4: America is our mindset. Because even if you go. I
Speaker 4: remember the first time I went to South Central and
Speaker 4: they was driving us through and I was like, when
Speaker 4: are we going to get to Crenshaw because I had
Speaker 4: seen it in the movies. They like, we were actually
Speaker 4: in Crenshaw. It looked like a suburb because it's manicured lawns,
Speaker 4: it's private homes. But of course it is dangerous and
Speaker 4: it's gang activity and all of that. But what I'm
Speaker 4: saying is that people will come from another country and
Speaker 4: see what we have as a mansion as an unbelievable
Speaker 4: opportunity because they was literally sleeping in a hut.
Speaker 3: We don't have.
Speaker 4: Fully, the idea of air condition is something that half
Speaker 4: the world's population doesn't even understand, even.
Speaker 3: In England right now. That's why people are dying with lights. Lights.
Speaker 4: There's four hundred million people in Africa that don't have lights.
Speaker 4: They don't like seven o'clock at night. The night's over,
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying, Like the night's over when
Speaker 4: when the sun goes down. Literally, So it's like the
Speaker 4: mindset is a big, big thing. A lot of a
Speaker 4: lot of times we don't We can go to Beverly
Speaker 4: Hills and turn into a hood because of our mindset,
Speaker 4: like you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: So it's like we got it.
Speaker 4: It wasn't that that style was a bad neighborhood because
Speaker 4: obviously they turned into what it is, the Halem.
Speaker 3: They saw the value in it.
Speaker 4: So it's like a lot of times we are not
Speaker 4: necessarily in the worst geographic area.
Speaker 3: It's the mentality that we have.
Speaker 4: And like I said, it's just little things like throwing
Speaker 4: shit on the street or you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 4: like just taking pride in something. You see something that's broken,
Speaker 4: fix it right. Like how you do one thing is
Speaker 4: how you do everything. And it's a trickle down effect.
Speaker 4: And now the whole community rally behind it. So nothing
Speaker 4: in Rwanda. Every Sunday they walk as a country and
Speaker 4: the president walks with them. No cars on Sundays. You
Speaker 4: would appreciate that run chance they walk every single Sunday.
Speaker 3: It's like and they get out and clean every get what.
Speaker 3: They go outside and clean and clean, like the whole
Speaker 3: country does community service, community service. They get out. You
Speaker 3: see people sleeping right in front of it wherever they live.
Speaker 3: They sweep in the street. It's pristine, right because everybody
Speaker 3: buys into that mentality. They take president, right, they take
Speaker 3: They believe that there's value and where they're at. We
Speaker 3: don't see where we're living as value. You know, when
Speaker 3: we see value. Somebody puts up a skyscraper, they're like, yea,
Speaker 3: what they're doing here. They're looking at it like, Yo,
Speaker 3: you've been here this whole time. Y'all didn't evaluate it.
Speaker 3: We're going to actually show you the value. Then it
Speaker 3: becomes on affordable and we're like, yo, what happened. Right,
Speaker 3: let's start Yankee Stadium. You dropped out of the Yankee Stadium.
Speaker 3: You look at Mount Haven, right, you got Mount Haven
Speaker 3: and then you've got twenty new buildings going up. Wow.
Speaker 3: They're looking at it like a luxury, luxury apartment. They
Speaker 3: look like that's water fun property. Right long out of
Speaker 3: the city.
Speaker 2: Wow, long out of city is the city's little manhattan.
Speaker 5: Right.
Speaker 3: Queens, it's not queens. They're looking at it like that's
Speaker 3: how water fund property. We can put luxury buildings here,
Speaker 3: we can change the narrative of how this this this
Speaker 3: place is going to be looked at, fly fly, But
Speaker 3: how long has it been there? And they're looking at
Speaker 3: like always those warehouse, those warehouses, like they're looking at
Speaker 3: that's how we're seeing it. They looking at it as opportunity.
Speaker 4: But that's why ownership is so important too, because you
Speaker 4: don't appreciate what you don't own. Think about it like
Speaker 4: you lived in an apartment. You live somewhere, you don't
Speaker 4: you buy a home. It's a difference. Ship breaks in
Speaker 4: an apartment, call it super break.
Speaker 3: Into your crib. You breaking in your crib exactly. So
Speaker 3: it's like your strong inflection of you.
Speaker 4: If you own that home on the street, you're gonna
Speaker 4: be looking at everything that happens on the streets, the dogs, ships,
Speaker 4: If you just have an apartment, you might not care
Speaker 4: you it. I'm just gonna go, I'm gonna look. So
Speaker 4: that's why ownership is so important too, because when you
Speaker 4: don't own it, your mindset is different. When you own
Speaker 4: some ship, you have a different level because you fully invested,
Speaker 4: you got skin in the game.
Speaker 3: You look at it differently, and you're watching everybody. You're
Speaker 3: watching the neighbors. That's when you really invested in the kids,
Speaker 3: Like what they're doing outside, Hey, they're playing outside, Like
Speaker 3: let me go talk to them, can we go help them?
Speaker 3: Community watch? That's it right, It was a community neighborhood community.
Speaker 3: We got the neighborhood h ab be strict. Of course,
Speaker 3: this guy if the kids on a motorcycle, like, there's
Speaker 3: a whole neighborhood. Watch, Yo, did y'all see that bike?
Speaker 3: Like what y'all talking about? Did you see the bike? Like? Yeah,
Speaker 3: I mean that they're they're driving pretty fast on our street.
Speaker 3: Maybe we should put speed bumps.
Speaker 2: I'm like, I want to get down with neighborhood, but
Speaker 2: there's value in conversations.
Speaker 3: I'm not there yet. I'm like, yo, if y'all can
Speaker 3: waste my time on another one of these fucking texts,
Speaker 3: Like you know what I'm saying, Like it's a kid,
Speaker 3: he's on he's testing his bike out. Why do we
Speaker 3: need speed bump that? It'd be the most random thing,
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. But that's part of it,
Speaker 3: because again, we're all homeowners in that in that space,
Speaker 3: and we're looking like can this devalue the neighborhood or
Speaker 3: is it going to keep the appreciation the neighborhood up?
Speaker 3: But schools are important too, Okay, that's important. We should
Speaker 3: get that part. But like, I'm not moving to somewhere
Speaker 3: if the schools aren't great. Why because my kids got
Speaker 3: to go up there, they got to grow up. We
Speaker 3: got to figure out how the education system because if
Speaker 3: that's not great, and that again goes into the taxes
Speaker 3: as well. If we're not having those type of conversations,
Speaker 3: then we're really being missing formed. Right. So like when
Speaker 3: you're looking at in the city schools, they're like, oh,
Speaker 3: they're not the best schools, Well, who's doing the rating
Speaker 3: on it? Who's giving them the resources? Right? Like how
Speaker 3: making sure that our kids are going to even wherever
Speaker 3: they live, are going to the best places that are
Speaker 3: going to help them out in the future. So let
Speaker 3: me ask you, right.
Speaker 2: I actually this earlier, but in a different way. Now,
Speaker 2: I'm a guy who's never been to Africa, but everyone
Speaker 2: is telling me, including a kon Akon Akon has been.
Speaker 2: He's been waving the Africa flag. I only been the
Speaker 2: whole continent. I don't even know if they got a flag.
Speaker 3: We're gonna make it one the whole concept.
Speaker 2: Big fact he's telling, you know, go back to Africa
Speaker 2: the best, Like you know what I mean?
Speaker 3: And I believe he said it on this show.
Speaker 2: He said every if every African American was to go
Speaker 2: back to Africa. They would live ten times better over there.
Speaker 3: This is what this is.
Speaker 2: According to the right.
Speaker 3: So now taking y'all advice, taking his advice.
Speaker 2: Now asking y'all if a person never been to Africa,
Speaker 2: they want to go there, they want to own their
Speaker 2: house or invest in their house and maybe AIRBNBA when
Speaker 2: they're not there, and what will be the place? What
Speaker 2: will replace you?
Speaker 3: Guys?
Speaker 4: Recommend first the entry to Africa is Ghana. That's the
Speaker 4: entry to Africa. It's one of the closest places because
Speaker 4: it's on the west coast. It's very familiar. You feel
Speaker 4: like you're in the Caribbean. It's a vibe. Everybody speaks English.
Speaker 4: You won't feel like out of place. It's very safe,
Speaker 4: it's not aggressive. People are not aggressive, you know, running
Speaker 4: up on you every ten minutes asking for money.
Speaker 3: Ghana is the entry to Africa.
Speaker 2: Okay, what do you mean entry level?
Speaker 4: If you first going to Africa, first place, my recommendation,
Speaker 4: that should be.
Speaker 3: The first place you go to, like to acclimate to
Speaker 3: the on the ground.
Speaker 4: Now opportunities, the opportunities there. Kenya is where it's at.
Speaker 4: Kenya is where it's at. Man Kenya is so dope
Speaker 4: Brow Road by Kenya is a vibe, bro, like some
Speaker 4: of the best food. It's very metro Politan area. Then
Speaker 4: you got the Safari like twenty minutes away. So you
Speaker 4: got the animals, you got the skyscrapers, you got people
Speaker 4: from all over the world.
Speaker 3: It's super diverse within an eight mile stretch. You got
Speaker 3: the Serengetti and you got them Samara right, like two
Speaker 3: of the most prestigious places on Earth that you can
Speaker 3: think for wildlife in the same country. That's crazy. Right.
Speaker 3: You got white sand beaches right like you said it's
Speaker 3: a tech hub. It's Kenya, Nairobi specifically, you got white
Speaker 3: sand beaches on the coast right, think of the coastal properties.
Speaker 3: Like you said tech hub. Is when my ears starts
Speaker 3: sparking because I'm like, wait, if they're thinking about tech,
Speaker 3: they're thinking about growths. Talking about affordability. We went to
Speaker 3: a luxury building, Bro, this is no Joe, no Joe.
Speaker 3: Pool on a balcony, thirty three hundred square feet pool
Speaker 3: on your balcony. Were looking at each other like, Yo,
Speaker 3: how much you think this is. I'm like, nah, it's
Speaker 3: probably like maybe a mill. We asked the lady. She
Speaker 3: was like, yeah, this is going for twenty five hundred
Speaker 3: a month. It's two hundred and fifty to buy. It's
Speaker 3: a pool on a balcony, not hot. A pool pull
Speaker 3: on your balcony around three sixty balcony Yo.
Speaker 2: Okay man.
Speaker 3: Tomorrow crazy bro super and then and then you.
Speaker 4: Know it's we gotta go to Ethiopia, haven't. That's the
Speaker 4: next place we gotta go. So I've been hearing great
Speaker 4: things about Ethiopia. Also Nigeria. Nigeria is very aggressive. Shot
Speaker 4: shot Nigeria. Shot to Nigeria, you know, David Oh, the
Speaker 4: whole team. We connected with them out there. But Nigeria
Speaker 4: is like, all right, if you first come to America
Speaker 4: and you go to Brooklyn, that's the first place you
Speaker 4: go to, you might not be fully acclimated to deal
Speaker 4: with that.
Speaker 3: Like you know what I'm saying. That's the whole thing. Yeah,
Speaker 3: this is exactly how New York City is exact.
Speaker 4: Nigeria is very you know how I said, Ghana is
Speaker 4: not aggressive. Nigeria is very aggressive and very fast paced.
Speaker 4: So it's two different things. I mean you, Nigeria has
Speaker 4: over two hundred million people, right like by twenty I
Speaker 4: think by twenty fifty you'll have more people in the
Speaker 4: country than the entire United States, Like the population is increasing.
Speaker 3: It's crazy. So I mean Legos is very fast paced.
Speaker 3: There's a lot going with the Beato from yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: there are a lot of good things about that.

Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 3: Elon Musk or just Bezos n Jeff Bezos. Yeah, I'm
Speaker 3: going with Joff. Any reason why you would say Jeff
Speaker 3: Elon must be Elon Waller? Yeah? He doing too much ship,
Speaker 3: He's doing too much crazy shit.
Speaker 4: Now he's saying, like, hysse you heard about that ship?
Speaker 3: Wait the movie Oyssey? Yeah? What about it? What he said?
Speaker 4: Something about it got Lupita younger in the Odyssey, and
Speaker 4: he was on the whole thing of like, why is
Speaker 4: she in the Odyssey? You don't understand the Africans came.
Speaker 4: The Africans civilized Europe before when they was in the
Speaker 4: Dark Ages, like Europeans, that's one of them. But the Europeans,
Speaker 4: the Greeks and the Romans came to Egypt to learn.
Speaker 4: The Egyptians called them children's and their mystery. Like, there
Speaker 4: was black people in Europe way before you got to tell.
Speaker 3: You about Spain. It was colonized exactly for six hundred years. Yeah.
Speaker 2: The Mafia Coast apartment for cutting you off. In the
Speaker 2: Mafia Coast is a whole area of statues, and they're
Speaker 2: all black, all black, And I was like, holy shit.
Speaker 4: That in America and America people know about Man Samusa,
Speaker 4: but they don't know about his brother. That's the richest
Speaker 4: man on earth right ever, Okay, ever, his brother was
Speaker 4: the King of the Sea. His brother was the first
Speaker 4: one of the first explorers to actually come to America.
Speaker 4: There was Africans in America before Christopher Columbus. Wow, on
Speaker 4: their own, not on the slave trade, they on their
Speaker 4: own as explorers.
Speaker 3: Wo.
Speaker 4: So it's like I can't rock with Elon Musk, like
Speaker 4: he's doing too much crazy shit. But history lesson If
Speaker 4: anybody that's interested history is important. There's a lot of context.
Speaker 2: I was just in Greece and they showed them the
Speaker 2: statues of black people too.
Speaker 3: You tried to say like this was this was Ai,
Speaker 3: that was how crazy AI is. That's a good lesson everybody.
Speaker 3: I sat down with an author and he said something
Speaker 3: that was like they stuck with me forever. He was like,
Speaker 3: people think of indoctrination, and when we think of it,
Speaker 3: it's a negative connotation, right, And he was like, indoctrination
Speaker 3: could be good. We just have to change the doctrine.
Speaker 3: In order to change the doction, we have to have education.
Speaker 3: And so if we tell people the right thing and
Speaker 3: the true stories, then that becomes the doctrine, so it
Speaker 3: won't be indoctrination, you know what I'm saying. So like
Speaker 3: that's why the education pieces is like vital, because if
Speaker 3: you don't tell that story, then people forget the history,
Speaker 3: which is kind of like part of that process of
Speaker 3: trying to figure out, hey, let's erase the history. Let's
Speaker 3: not teach from history was wor the Moors came through Spain.
Speaker 3: That's standable, Barker.
Speaker 4: But the crazy thing about white supremacy is like it
Speaker 4: just funks up your mind so crazy. People is just
Speaker 4: so indoctrinated. They'll tell you it was no Africans in
Speaker 4: Greece and no black people in Rome, and then they
Speaker 4: have no problem having Elizabeth Taylor playing Nepher.
Speaker 3: Titi and Egypt.
Speaker 1: We was in.
Speaker 4: We went to Egypt. We saw, we saw the Valley
Speaker 4: of the Kings. We go to the we go to
Speaker 4: inside the tombs, and these people is darker than me.
Speaker 4: These are the original opinions from three thousand and five
Speaker 4: thousand years ago. You know what's so crazy is like
Speaker 4: even that if you put a black man as a pharaoh,
Speaker 4: the people will be like, that's that, that didn't happen.
Speaker 4: The painting is on the wall. Literally, I'm looking at
Speaker 4: the pinion. I don't need no interpretation. The Egyptians that's there, now,
Speaker 4: those aren't the original Egyptians. Those are people that came.
Speaker 4: So it's like we could look at a picture and
Speaker 4: people will still say that's not real. It's like the
Speaker 4: white Jesus, how you gonna have You have a white
Speaker 4: man that lived in in the Middle East?
Speaker 3: What have you do? You know, any blonde hairl our.
Speaker 8: Person and describes what he looked like in the Bible's
Speaker 8: but if you put if you put that picture up there,
Speaker 8: people will be like, this is bullshit, It's not real.
Speaker 3: Why would you do this? Why would you?
Speaker 2: Bro?
Speaker 3: How is it going to be a white person?
Speaker 4: And it's described as different way and geographically it don't
Speaker 4: even make sense.
Speaker 6: Damn near Stockholm syndrome. Like you ever, you know I
Speaker 6: pressed you or kidnapped you. You start to like them
Speaker 6: and believe them.
Speaker 3: You see that every day. Yeah, that's crazy, all right,
Speaker 3: Damon John and Mark Cuban, man shout Damon.
Speaker 4: You know he's he's the bro. He actually came to
Speaker 4: invest fast. But Mark Cuban did our show twice too,
Speaker 4: so got love for him. I got to go with
Speaker 4: Mark Cuban. I mean just he's a legend in the
Speaker 4: game from a few different reasons, and he wear.
Speaker 3: T shirts number one reason. Now I'm going with I'm
Speaker 3: going with Damon just because outside of what he's done
Speaker 3: from the business side, what he meant I still like.
Speaker 3: I told him when we met him and interviewed him.
Speaker 3: I remember being the kid watching video Music Box with
Speaker 3: Rob McDaniel. I told Rod McDaniels this, and he went
Speaker 3: to Queen's and sat down with these dudes on the
Speaker 3: step and I was like, who are these guys right?
Speaker 3: And when they created, when they was doing football, I'm
Speaker 3: just like, Yo, this is crazy. And then to watch
Speaker 3: that brand grow, to see what it meant and to
Speaker 3: see what he's done with it, obviously being on Shock Team,
Speaker 3: but the businesses that he's been able to create, and
Speaker 3: he's I mean, he's a solid dude, like a really
Speaker 3: good human being. And not to say that Mark Cuban
Speaker 3: is it. He's done amazing things as well. But I'm
Speaker 3: gonna go with Damon just because I watched him involved
Speaker 3: into what I I'll go with Damon too. Been oppositely,
Speaker 3: we would have had to drink college. It's three.
Speaker 4: It's three for one if you black, because it's three
Speaker 4: times harder. So if you make a hundred million dollars
Speaker 4: when you black, technically you worth half a billion dollars.
Speaker 3: That's how I look at it. Like jay Z.
Speaker 4: Jay Z been at two billion dollars for fifteen years.
Speaker 4: Jay Z's supposed to be worth thirty billion if you
Speaker 4: really think about it, that's crazy. Open everybody that's black
Speaker 4: at worth two billion? Oh Lebron James, Michael Jordida. You
Speaker 4: never realized, like I remember Templand told me that at
Speaker 4: our bossle You're like, yo, you ever think about this shit?
Speaker 3: Everybody, you got to be.
Speaker 4: The most incredible person in the world to be black,
Speaker 4: to be worth a billion dollars. Sam Bank mcfree, nobody
Speaker 4: even knew who he was, was worth thirty billion dollars
Speaker 4: and he was thirty one years old.
Speaker 3: No, you're about to get a text. He's gonna be
Speaker 3: like wrong shot Champ and again, how even ten billion?
Speaker 4: It's like, look, it's true booky that you've never heard
Speaker 4: of in life, that's worth eighty billion dollars. This about
Speaker 4: Bucker's got to be the most impactful, most sell out
Speaker 4: Yankee Stadium ten times, do crazy shit. And it's like
Speaker 4: to get eight billion and everybody is worth the same amount.
Speaker 3: His intrinsic value is what we can't count, right, Like
Speaker 3: how many people have he sparked the idea to create something?
Speaker 3: So Yeah, on a monetary standpoint, like, yeah, we can
Speaker 3: say he's worth three point eight or whatever Forbes says,
Speaker 3: and that's whatever he reports, but his intrinsic value is
Speaker 3: so much more. The really interesting thing is that the
Speaker 3: wealthiest black man is in Africa and nobody talks about them, right,
Speaker 3: but technically we interview him, Yeah a Lincoln Dangodi.
Speaker 4: Robert Smith Okay, yeah Rob Smith with Rich's Blackmans.
Speaker 3: So he's actually number two. Now David Stewart's number one.
Speaker 3: They go back and forth, but the last three years
Speaker 3: has been David Stewart. But legal Dangodi triples them in worth, right.
Speaker 3: And what he's about to do in Africa, Yeah, what
Speaker 3: he's about to do with his oil refinery in Nigeria
Speaker 3: potentially can have him at the sixty to seventy billion
Speaker 3: dollar rate. Some people have him estimated at one hundred billion, right,
Speaker 3: But like that's how that needs to be studied, and
Speaker 3: nobody talks about that. Like we follow entertainment so much
Speaker 3: that we forget that the business world where it's actually happened.
Speaker 3: He could care less about music, right. His thing is
Speaker 3: like natural resources? Is it rice? Is it flower? Is
Speaker 3: a cement? Is it oil? All those things are part
Speaker 3: of his ecosystem. And now his daughters are doing it too, right,
Speaker 3: So like that what he's doing is going to change
Speaker 3: the entire trajectory of his country, not his like city,
Speaker 3: now his neighborhood, his entire country where they go from
Speaker 3: a place that used to they got oil, they exported
Speaker 3: it out to get it refined, and then had to
Speaker 3: pay to get it back.
Speaker 2: Isn't that something with Kadaffi wanted to do.
Speaker 3: K wanted to do a lot of.
Speaker 4: You wanted to have a unified African dollar backed by goal.
Speaker 4: He wanted to have the United African Nations like. He
Speaker 4: wanted to do a lot of stuff. But you know
Speaker 4: the crazy thing about the richest black people in America.
Speaker 4: They could walk through any black neighborhood in America and
Speaker 4: nobody would know who they are.
Speaker 2: And I saw this, Huh, that's dope, right, No, not really.
Speaker 2: He wanted to be famous.
Speaker 3: Yeah, because you got That's what you got a little inspiration.
Speaker 2: Like Robert somebout the image be famous, but not them
Speaker 2: because they want to protect We don't.
Speaker 3: Know the image. If I showed you a picture, you
Speaker 3: wouldn't who is definitely I'm saying Robert Smith.
Speaker 4: Robert Smith had a press conference in Harlem because he
Speaker 4: had an initiative of like prostate cancer because like, black
Speaker 4: men get prostate cancer at a much higher rate. This
Speaker 4: is a couple of years ago, so we went. It
Speaker 4: was in the middle of the projects. I think it
Speaker 4: was in whack then projects the middle of the projects
Speaker 4: they had Steve Harvey did Charlotte Mane all that body.
Speaker 4: It was nothing nobody like maybe one hundred people, no
Speaker 4: shoutout top.
Speaker 3: But if Cardi B was there, O, bro, if you.
Speaker 4: Understand, it would be five thousand people there that would
Speaker 4: be asking for autographic picture and yo, can you listen
Speaker 4: to my music?
Speaker 3: All that type of shit. That's what I'm saying.
Speaker 4: We don't even know who are the people to actually
Speaker 4: look up to, Like you know what I'm saying, like
Speaker 4: this dude is worth twenty billion dollars, fifteen billion dollars, but.
Speaker 3: Is that how you market it? Hey man come to
Speaker 3: see me and knows what I would do, saying it's
Speaker 3: like this is the part, right, this is going to
Speaker 3: go all the way back to again. And this is
Speaker 3: when I'm listening to a reasonable Doubt and I'm listening
Speaker 3: to Kid not the Hustle and he says like all
Speaker 3: black God is sports, it entertainment until we even yep,
Speaker 3: I'm like, yo, that's prophetic, right, because he's saying, like
Speaker 3: all we look up to are people in sports and entertainment,
Speaker 3: and that's how we're going to get to wealth, and
Speaker 3: then you look at the wealthiest people and none of
Speaker 3: them come from sports entertainment. Wow, you see what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: But if I showed you a pit literally did this
Speaker 3: for fourteen year olds. If I showed him a picture
Speaker 3: of Beyonce, they know it. But that I show a
Speaker 3: picture j they know it. Dre they know right like
Speaker 3: Oprah they know. They don't know Dango they don't There's
Speaker 3: so many names that they don't know. If I show
Speaker 3: hi Robert Smith, they would have no idea. If I
Speaker 3: showed you Dave Stewart, you wouldn't know. Dave Stewart doesn't
Speaker 3: speak a lot. So how do we know? Like, we
Speaker 3: can't emulate what he's done. We can't say like that's aspiration.
Speaker 3: We can look at the Dollar Mount and say like
Speaker 3: I would love to get there. The how is that
Speaker 3: we don't know, right, So if they never tell their
Speaker 3: story and if we don't know who they are, then
Speaker 3: we can't emulate. We can't aspire, we can't inspire to
Speaker 3: be that. That's why it's important. That's real, all right.
Speaker 3: Russell Simmons are Lyric Cohen. I got Russell Simmons. I'm
Speaker 3: rolling with Russ about you know what I'm saying from
Speaker 3: a business, I'm not sure what he has. I would

Speaker 3: think Rockaway was just trying to find a credit line,
Speaker 3: so he was working with them. He was like, Yo,
Speaker 3: jay Z's going to be the guy. I was like,
Speaker 3: I'm listening to the Nooy right now, right now, like
Speaker 3: the War report had just dropped and he's coming. You
Speaker 3: had just did the freestyle. We were talking about the
Speaker 3: freestyles of the night, the Hot ninety seven freestyles.
Speaker 4: Ray Daniels, but he never heard of a freestyle before.
Speaker 4: I'm like, nah, that's the guy. Bro and his clue
Speaker 4: freestyles were classic. And then the album band from TV.
Speaker 4: First I'm like, oh, it's over. And then what what
Speaker 4: was like, No, you can tell me that the Cannabis
Speaker 4: d m x Nory freestyle argument about we had a
Speaker 4: whole conversation.
Speaker 3: I said, you know they jumped me. You were prepared.
Speaker 3: You know they didn't.
Speaker 2: I didn't know them each other. It was just naturally
Speaker 2: the day we became friends. After that, you know, if
Speaker 2: you listen to the to Flex. At some point he
Speaker 2: keeps saying your pun stopped calling pun was downstairs.
Speaker 3: To her, I'm not sure.
Speaker 2: I'm not one hundred cent positive, but about cam but
Speaker 2: one baby, they were coming today to come up.
Speaker 3: Yeah, like because this is all the freshman class, Like
Speaker 3: they got me goosebumps. Jesus Jesus to me, I was like,
Speaker 3: we had this argument because he was cannabis is nice.
Speaker 3: We're not gonna if one some rappings. He was all
Speaker 3: the blue tat. He was the master.
Speaker 2: Let me tell you so the Cannabis was the only
Speaker 2: dude that I see. I have a laptop and rhyme students.
Speaker 3: This is back then bad not not so X was
Speaker 3: up there. And then when you were spitting, I'm like, yo,
Speaker 3: this ship. I'm like, yo, no, he got he killed it.
Speaker 3: He was the best one up there. And then we
Speaker 3: heard the album, like yo, oh that was he was
Speaker 3: just like giving us what he had. I think he
Speaker 3: was in that n E molt already ma in the album.
Speaker 3: I'm like, oh, so like when the album dropped, I'm like, oh,
Speaker 3: I know some of these verses it made even more enjoyable,
Speaker 3: like oh yeah, yeah, let's do this for some stuff too.
Speaker 3: We listened to that we listened to that tape so much.
Speaker 4: That was when radio you actually had to catch it
Speaker 4: because if you didn't catch it when it actually happened,
Speaker 4: you might not actually hear it, and then you had
Speaker 4: to get a tape. So when that freezed, I remember,
Speaker 4: I was actually it's like when I Hate Me Now
Speaker 4: came out wow flex oh yeah, two hours.
Speaker 3: Hours. That's why I hate me now? Man hate me now.
Speaker 4: That's the most bombs I ever heard in my life.
Speaker 4: But I remember you when you freazed out with fabul.
Speaker 3: That's the reason why.
Speaker 2: This is the reason why him and Yaloe's argument is
Speaker 2: so like it's so like legendary because he says that,
Speaker 2: you know, QA.
Speaker 3: You was my favorite. I said you're my favorite. He
Speaker 3: didn't like that he was at the top of my list.
Speaker 3: And then he can we say something? Just let me
Speaker 3: just say something artist. This is what Yayo said.
Speaker 2: He was like and and I had to like fil
Speaker 2: him so much because he was like, was you in
Speaker 2: the city with big drums and it was like it
Speaker 2: changed the detectory of our homes. So I like Yayo
Speaker 2: saying that. I'm like, damn, I was dead. I remember
Speaker 2: that ship. But people don't remember home.
Speaker 4: It's like, okay, listen, okay, let's have this hip hop conversation. Okay,
Speaker 4: Myth Bleak, we can't discredit history. Myth Bleak has a
Speaker 4: lot of Greek verses. He does that ship when he said, man,
Speaker 4: my favorite Myth Bleak verse screw good and I pitched
Speaker 4: in the pj's little if the DJ split does you
Speaker 4: with my ring finger you find it's that only kaream
Speaker 4: Binger black things from bing. I got off between a
Speaker 4: citizen concert. That's why I packed the Johnson and Johnson
Speaker 4: for the nonsense. Who wants I go to sleep with
Speaker 4: a picture of my portion on my wall. We used
Speaker 4: to listen to that. We used to listen to that.
Speaker 4: That was the intro to the Hard Knock Life album.
Speaker 4: Hard Knocked Life is with Change. Jay Z's Life sold
Speaker 4: five million records. Bleak is the first thing you hit
Speaker 4: on that album Celebration a thousand bars. I don't know
Speaker 4: what this narrative came that Bleek is a one hit
Speaker 4: wonder or he not. Bleak has a catalog of music
Speaker 4: that we was actually listened to, Like, we can't, we
Speaker 4: can't rewrite this.
Speaker 3: It's all right because a lot of people don't know history.
Speaker 3: That's what's happening. Now you can write it. That's an
Speaker 3: unfortunate part of podcast.
Speaker 6: Yeah, people coming, they're looking like an authority, and then
Speaker 6: they're rewriting history and then their.
Speaker 3: Audience is like, okay. When he said, like, yo, cop
Speaker 3: to Jordan's two weeks before they came out, that was
Speaker 3: so real because that was a thing. In high school.
Speaker 4: It was always the one kid that had the Jordans
Speaker 4: a week before everybody else had it, and he was like,
Speaker 4: how did you get it.
Speaker 3: A week in advance? That was the thing.
Speaker 4: So it was like when he was saying a copy
Speaker 4: Jordan two weeks before he came out that ship was
Speaker 4: so relatable because that's what he was.
Speaker 3: Trying to do.
Speaker 4: We were trying to get the phone. I remember when
Speaker 4: the phone pauses came filled. The first sneakers that cost
Speaker 4: two hundred dollars two hundred dollars was the Pennies. Yes,
Speaker 4: that was an amazing thing that sneakers cost two hundred dollars. Now,
Speaker 4: fucking Air Force once cost one hundred.
Speaker 3: Ten dollars up there on the Morrow.

Speaker 4: was the craziest shit in the world.
Speaker 3: So it's a.
Speaker 4: Letout and everybody's talking to girls, everybody's doing I don't
Speaker 4: know what I said, but apparently I said something that
Speaker 4: was a trigger word because there's about fifty different people
Speaker 4: that stopped what they were doing and started looking at
Speaker 4: me like one got here, one got here. It was
Speaker 4: like he had the secret service and they all scattered around.
Speaker 4: It wasn't like they was together, but I could feel that.
Speaker 4: It's like a movie like Scared they stopped playing music.
Speaker 4: Everybody's pointed at me.
Speaker 3: So I looked. He took the air piece off. He said.
Speaker 4: So, I'm like, I look back and we was I
Speaker 4: had six people with me. When I look back, I
Speaker 4: didn't see anybody.
Speaker 3: That's not.
Speaker 2: That is not.
Speaker 3: That try some point because we got to change the doctor.
Speaker 3: The truth is the shout the man man was there
Speaker 3: and I was there.
Speaker 4: Tuesday there was Tesdaye. I looked in the wrong corner,
Speaker 4: the corner because he he says something and he ain't respond.
Speaker 3: He ted told the glass and he said something again,
Speaker 3: and everybody started looking. Now I'm like a ship. This
Speaker 3: could get dangerous. And then he said, Chris Gotti christ
Speaker 3: So that that was so I'm gonna get to that point.
Speaker 2: So now.
Speaker 3: Chris Gotti is our middleman to the situation.
Speaker 2: So this.
Speaker 4: It's looking shaky, and I'm like, I'm like, this is
Speaker 4: financial literacy, Like I'm not about financial literacy, Like this
Speaker 4: is this is looking this isn't looking good, right, it's
Speaker 4: not looking good because he's swirling a glass of I
Speaker 4: don't know how he got his glass outside. He's He's
Speaker 4: still had the same glass swirling the glass of wine
Speaker 4: and there's people that's like looking like just waiting for
Speaker 4: a cute you know what I'm saying, get him. So okay,
Speaker 4: So now like I got to de escalate this situation quickly.
Speaker 4: So then that's why I'm like, Chris Gotti. Throw the
Speaker 4: first name, and he's like, oh yeah, oh Chris Gotti,
Speaker 4: Chris Guy. Yeah, okay, my man. So I'm like, yo,
Speaker 4: we do a podcast, but I'm still having I'm still
Speaker 4: having the conversations coming, like we do a podcast. We
Speaker 4: want to get you on the show. He's like, okay,
Speaker 4: we're gonna get that ship done. We're gonna get that
Speaker 4: ship done. Like okay, he turned around. He turned around
Speaker 4: and looks.
Speaker 3: At me and says, let's get the funk out of here.
Speaker 3: He said, let's let's get the I'm thinking, okay, yo,
Speaker 3: let's get the funk out of here now. And I'm like, yeah, okay,
Speaker 3: time ago.
Speaker 2: He agreed, agreed.
Speaker 3: I'm like, okay, let's literally, this doesn't look like a situation.
Speaker 3: We need to stay at this. It's time to go.
Speaker 3: Somebody got crazy.
Speaker 4: So the crazy thing is the whole day happens and
Speaker 4: the next day we leave. We got like a one
Speaker 4: o'clock we got like a one in the afternoon flight,
Speaker 4: and then I noticed that you got the interview though, no,
Speaker 4: so we didn't get the interview. I'm like, god, cool.
Speaker 4: But at five o'clock in the morning, I had a
Speaker 4: miscall from Chris Gotti. So I hit him back at
Speaker 4: like twelve, I'm yo, bro.
Speaker 3: So on the way to the airport, He's like yo,
Speaker 3: he was.
Speaker 4: He was ready to do the interview. He called me
Speaker 4: at five. He said some on the address. I said
Speaker 4: at five o'clock in the morning, He's like yeah, he
Speaker 4: was all. He's like, okay, look, I'm ready to do it.
Speaker 4: Have them come to the compound, because everybody kept talking
Speaker 4: about the compound.
Speaker 3: Apparently apparently he has a compound in Houston in the middle.
Speaker 4: Everybody knows, y'all. That's like a like it's like a
Speaker 4: fortress in the middle of Houston. I could imagine it.
Speaker 4: I don't know, but it was synonymous. So he's like,
Speaker 4: send him the address to the compound.
Speaker 3: I can avoid it. Go stret show.
Speaker 4: We never got to take Prince interview, but that's what
Speaker 4: I'm saying. And then his son told us to come
Speaker 4: to the ranch. No, that was That's what I said.
Speaker 4: Before the day before she was like, come to the ranch.
Speaker 3: We're thinking like, we're not thinking, oh, like that's what
Speaker 3: they call his crib, the ranch. He has a compound
Speaker 3: in the city. And then like, yeah, they ride horses
Speaker 3: out there. But then I'm thinking, like, ain't got an island.
Speaker 3: Let's not forget that. When I'm thinking the ranch, I'm like, yo,
Speaker 3: what they're doing in the ranch, I'm like, I'm not thinking,
Speaker 3: like that's where we're going. Then I'm like, I don't
Speaker 3: know why Silence of the Lambs came to mind Part two.
Speaker 3: When he got the ranch, I'm like, nah, I ain't
Speaker 3: going to the ranch. But we go on our way
Speaker 3: to the plane. When we realized that damn, he really
Speaker 3: just wanted like four am. He was trying to shoot
Speaker 3: that interview. And then we found out later like that's
Speaker 3: just part of like the process with him.
Speaker 4: I tell you, go tell me, I never saw somebody.
Speaker 4: I never saw somebody with that much power in real time.
Speaker 4: Because he didn't say anything. I said something that apparently
Speaker 4: soldiers was on point. They stopped, they were talking to girl.
Speaker 4: They they stopped. Everybody stopped, and he didn't have to
Speaker 4: call he had to say nothing. He have to whistle.
Speaker 4: He's looking at me swirling the wine glass, and there's
Speaker 4: people in every direction. They he didn't have to say anything.
Speaker 4: They was and it was at least fifty people. I
Speaker 4: personally had never before or after seen anything like that
Speaker 4: ever in my life. So what I was telling and
Speaker 4: this is what Chris gott he told me. Chris Gotty
Speaker 4: was like, yeah, I've been around prem I've been around
Speaker 4: you know. He said, nobody is as strong as j
Speaker 4: Prince on that type shit. He's like, nobody's as strong as.
Speaker 3: Him like that. I don't know. I don't know what
Speaker 3: it is.
Speaker 4: But that ship, it's not a myth. It's not like
Speaker 4: I saw it. I saw my own eyes. Yeah, so
Speaker 4: you chose po right, well, master.
Speaker 3: P shipout out the peak, all right?
Speaker 1: Uh?
Speaker 6: Jordan Lebron, Jordan Bron, greatest ever and now we got
Speaker 6: to drink because they witches.
Speaker 3: It's not even Jordan's not close. No, no, no, no,
Speaker 3: for me, it's not close. Right from Jordan from what
Speaker 3: he's want to the game of Bron is I think
Speaker 3: it's one A one B. I'm not saying like Lebron
Speaker 3: isn't the next best player. I just think what what
Speaker 3: He's meant to the game of basketball. I don't think
Speaker 3: can be ever replicated by anyone who Jordan's Yeah, just
Speaker 3: different and just from like a share determination. You watch
Speaker 3: Kobe become who he is because he was emulating somebody
Speaker 3: of that greatness. I think it's just Jordan, but Bron
Speaker 3: what he's done is phenomenal on the court. We'll never
Speaker 3: see it again. I think he's had the best career
Speaker 3: that we've ever seen. I think Jordan's the best basketball
Speaker 3: player to the John going going to the East Coast
Speaker 3: Nixon Foster Nick said five.
Speaker 2: Still, that's what I text Wallow and Gilly the kids.
Speaker 2: I swear to God, I do know that. I said,
Speaker 2: Nixie vib like, get the fuck out of here, NIAI.
Speaker 2: Wallow got to call me and cursed me out. I
Speaker 2: was like a got one ship.

Speaker 3: He put on both. Yeah, I can't loose cougie rap
Speaker 3: or slick Rick. Oh, actually, I'm gonna choose slicker. Real
Speaker 3: one g rapper is one of the illis rappers of
Speaker 3: all time. The event is a slick Rick. You remember
Speaker 3: when you have to order CDs out the magazine you
Speaker 3: could buy like ten for it was a Columbia Columbia. Yeah,
Speaker 3: my brother did that. We got up with those joints.
Speaker 3: We got The Adventures of slick Rick and that was it. Man.
Speaker 3: I think that was a five mic album and the
Speaker 3: so it's too like when they when they went back
Speaker 3: and revised. So just a slick Wrick. Damn sure it
Speaker 3: is in my life.
Speaker 4: That's as life one of my favorite songs of all time.
Speaker 3: Does he have a classic white Boy Johnny That's that's
Speaker 3: God in the hook. Yeah, it's incredible. But you know,
Speaker 3: you know they do these AI videos of like old
Speaker 3: hip hop story they fucking me up. Should be good.
Speaker 3: I see that videos. I'm thinking I'm in this ship.
Speaker 3: Like I'm like, they got an animated one, but they
Speaker 3: got one.
Speaker 10: Where they like making me and nas like I had
Speaker 10: to look like I had Like I was like, wait
Speaker 10: a minute, always did have to drink you all, remember yo,
Speaker 10: I know I'm talking about like really because because they
Speaker 10: got my haircut from that from that era, you know,
Speaker 10: I changed my shit up, you know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: So I was like one of them, and I was
Speaker 2: just like, holy shit, Okay, get ready, Yeah, let's do it.
Speaker 2: Thirty eight Special or styles p Let's have this. Can
Speaker 2: we have this conversation. Let's have this conversation?
Speaker 3: No, Like, what are we talking about?
Speaker 4: I think Okay, you guys hold an important role in
Speaker 4: hip hop. I told Mickey Fax this as well. They
Speaker 4: should have a hip hop council. I'm a fan of
Speaker 4: hip hop. You guys are figures inside of hip hop.
Speaker 5: Right.
Speaker 3: We gotta have bylaws that we live by.
Speaker 4: Everybody, Okay, somebody in the G League can't just play
Speaker 4: one on one with Lebron and be taken serious by
Speaker 4: the fans. It's disrespectful to the work that Lebron James
Speaker 4: put in. I like thirty eight specially. I like his music,
Speaker 4: but nobody knows his music, so for him to even
Speaker 4: battle for him to even and people are actually saying well, no,
Speaker 4: it's hip hop.
Speaker 3: They should get in the ring. Oh yeah, you gotta
Speaker 3: battle that. How does Jadakiss battle somebody that we? Okay?
Speaker 4: If I put a gun to most people's heads and
Speaker 4: asks them name your favorite thirty eight Special song, they're
Speaker 4: gonna die.
Speaker 3: But no respect seriously speaks. But Jadakiss has thirty years
Speaker 3: of classic verses. E did ship with Big jay Nas.
Speaker 4: His freestyles is on iTunes, like you know what I'm saying,
Speaker 4: like the verses like he's battle tested. He don't went
Speaker 4: through the ship with State Property, Beanie seguel with jay
Speaker 4: Z like fifty bro.
Speaker 3: It's a certain you can't fight versus forget it? Yeah
Speaker 3: you can't. He certified?
Speaker 4: When did we even gets how did we get to
Speaker 4: this point? How did we get to this point in
Speaker 4: hip hop to say he's thirty eight Special? Because even styles?
Speaker 4: How can we even How is it comparable? What's the
Speaker 4: album has he has? What classic verse has he had
Speaker 4: that feature that he's referring to. I never even heard
Speaker 4: the song. We never heard the song. I never heard
Speaker 4: the song. No, it was never a conversation like we
Speaker 4: heard conversations of like who has a better verse on
Speaker 4: who runs this Town, jay Z or Kanye Who got
Speaker 4: a better verse on Brooklyn's finance? Jay Z are Big?
Speaker 4: Those were topics of this. Uh, it was never a
Speaker 4: topic of discussion. Who had a better verse, Benny the Butcher,
Speaker 4: Jada Kiss or him. I never heard anybody in life
Speaker 4: talk about this. It does hip hop with this service,
Speaker 4: That's what I'm trying to say. And I don't want
Speaker 4: to discredit the brother, because I'm sure he worked hard,
Speaker 4: he's independent, and I do think he can wrap. But
Speaker 4: if there's no bylaws, it lowers the value of hip hop.
Speaker 4: Like you know what I'm saying, Like you just can't
Speaker 4: come in and fucking just challenge Lebron James. And it
Speaker 4: gets taken seriously on Sports Center, like you know what
Speaker 4: I'm saying like that you can't just come in just
Speaker 4: say okay, I want to fight Terrence Cowford and you
Speaker 4: a Golden Glove fighter, And then ESPN is seriously having
Speaker 4: conversations about it, and fans is seriously taking the shit serious.
Speaker 4: It discredits like there's certain things that you have to
Speaker 4: do to fit to certain criterias to be able to
Speaker 4: battle or have conversations with certain people's that's not a
Speaker 4: conversation that should.
Speaker 3: Ever happen in life. Yeah, I don't know what record.
Speaker 3: So it's I mean for us that's born in New
Speaker 3: York City, raising West just for us anything now on four,
Speaker 3: we're going to support that one for right, that's our
Speaker 3: area of code. So like growing up and it's the lots.
Speaker 3: There's nothing you're going to tell us about the lots.
Speaker 3: It's like you're not going to tell us anything about X.
Speaker 3: Like we ride on with that. If it's married, we
Speaker 3: ride with that. When it was heavy D we ride
Speaker 3: with that. So like especially when it comes to kiss
Speaker 3: chic and styles, like those are the guys and they're
Speaker 3: still the guys. Like what they've done throughout their career
Speaker 3: since ninety five ninety six to now, what they've shown
Speaker 3: right still being relevant even you know from the podcast
Speaker 3: based making music, Yeah, the documentary documentary. We actually their
Speaker 3: documentary at a vestpest this year. Because the loyalty that
Speaker 3: they've shown each other, but the dedication that they've shown
Speaker 3: to the rap being their contribution. Like when we talk
Speaker 3: about like everything you just said, if I'm thinking about
Speaker 3: what has been your contribution, I can't name too many
Speaker 3: people that have the resume that they have, especially like
Speaker 3: people who are trying to make themselves the name and
Speaker 3: trying to have a career. I don't know what those
Speaker 3: other people's contribution has been. I know what that contribution
Speaker 3: has been, right, Like we've seen big on On. You'll
Speaker 3: see going back and forth with them, even to the
Speaker 3: point where he's dissing them and they realize, I'm like, yo,
Speaker 3: this dude's actually talking about us. Niggas talking for Chris
Speaker 3: some citizen and listen ship Jady Kiss.
Speaker 2: You know, they had to convince me that they were
Speaker 2: the biggest talk about that.
Speaker 3: We still where did they get like the information from.
Speaker 6: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I guess they justlter.
Speaker 4: But I will say that, yeah, Jadaykiss hometown hero for sure.
Speaker 4: But even if he wasn't a hometowl hero for us,
Speaker 4: I still I just I just think it's disrespectful, and
Speaker 4: especially the way that he went about it.
Speaker 3: Because he didn't he didn't give you a verse. You
Speaker 3: you calling him.
Speaker 4: Out of his name, and you disrespecting and doing all
Speaker 4: this shit, and you're making the videos and doing all
Speaker 4: this ship. It's like it's like Dylan Brooks that Dylan
Speaker 4: Brooks is whack. To me, Bro like you disrespected one
Speaker 4: of the greatest players of all time for clout Like
Speaker 4: you know what I'm saying, Like Dylan Brooks bro Like,
Speaker 4: I don't do that.
Speaker 3: Course I don't like, but I don't like. I don't
Speaker 3: you have him a little bit because at least Deler
Speaker 3: Brooks is in the league. Yeah, but I don't like
Speaker 3: the way. I don't like it. I don't like when
Speaker 3: people disrespect legends and I don't appreciate that for no reason.
Speaker 3: And it's it's like, but you can't. Here's why. Here's why.
Speaker 3: I'm a competitor the other greatest. I'm gonna talk as
Speaker 3: much as I can to get into side of your head.
Speaker 3: But I'm in the league. When guys that are not
Speaker 3: in the league doing it, then that's different. But he's
Speaker 3: thirty eight specialist in the league. He's a rapper, but
Speaker 3: he's not in the same class as the Jakis, the
Speaker 3: G League, some league. He might be in someer league.
Speaker 3: But all I'm saying is this.
Speaker 4: All I'm saying is this, There's no way we should
Speaker 4: have a comparison of thirty eight special in styles or Jadakiss.
Speaker 4: That's disrespectful to the cloth, the sacrifice of thirty years
Speaker 4: of pioneers if you really think about.
Speaker 3: It, and Joe, but even Joe, like disrespecting Joe. I'm like, yo, bro,
Speaker 3: what they don't even make sense. They really don't even
Speaker 3: make sense. I'm like, yo, you're talking about another guy
Speaker 3: thirty years plus, like you gotta flow Joe, Like that's
Speaker 3: ninety four, ninety five. They just it's still probably even
Speaker 3: more relevant than he was then. And I don't and
Speaker 3: I don't like that's something you can emulate. And I
Speaker 3: don't like how people just are so quick to be like, no,
Speaker 3: well Jady kiss he got a battle. It's rapped and
Speaker 3: he don't have to Yeah, you don't got a battle,
Speaker 3: You don't gotta's he's earned the right. Yeah he got level.
Speaker 3: He's like nahs.
Speaker 4: People say creative about knas all the time. Don't respond
Speaker 4: they niggas. They' not on NAS's level. Like I hate
Speaker 4: when I hate that part about our culture. We don't
Speaker 4: have no respect for Founding, all of us. We don't
Speaker 4: have no respect for Founding follows and his ageism. Shit,
Speaker 4: I don't like that either.
Speaker 3: Yo.
Speaker 4: They fifty years, oh you're forty, like we all are adults,
Speaker 4: Like you know what I'm saying, like, and the goal
Speaker 4: is to age exactly.
Speaker 3: That is the goal there actually doing something that you
Speaker 3: can replicate, right, because the further they go, the further
Speaker 3: you'll be able to go. We shouldn't be knocked. It's
Speaker 3: like I was watching Mav Carter and he was talking
Speaker 3: about he just had to go see the Rolling Stones perform,
Speaker 3: and he're like why he was like, Yo, think about this.
Speaker 3: They're eighty one years old and they're still on stage
Speaker 3: doing what they love. Right. So the further they go,
Speaker 3: the next band can still tour at fifty, at sixty,
Speaker 3: at seventy, potentially at eighty. If you start discrediting the
Speaker 3: guys that are actually creating new lanes and new revenues
Speaker 3: for you at fifty, what happens to you at forty five? Right,
Speaker 3: Like it does make sense. We grew up in the eighties, right.
Speaker 3: Kr Rest didn't get to have the career that like
Speaker 3: a jay Z has had, right because he had to
Speaker 3: put down the fourth filling steps to get to that point.
Speaker 3: We can't knock him. He didn't get to tour the world.
Speaker 3: I mean he's doing it now, but not at the
Speaker 3: same level. If he's still on the ship yeah, he
Speaker 3: doesn't like to fly. So now it's like like if
Speaker 3: Jay can perform at fifty five, then a boogie potentially
Speaker 3: perform at forty five or fifty. It should be endless.
Speaker 4: You want to do so much you out if Jennakiss
Speaker 4: is just like your fuck thirty expected, all right, it's
Speaker 4: a sport. Now you got to defend your manhood. But
Speaker 4: from my knowledge, it wasn't about no ship. He didn't
Speaker 4: give you a first Okay, you taking it this far?
Speaker 3: All right? Dre or Riza, doctor dre Rizza, doctor dre
Speaker 3: or the Risa. I think we're going to disagree here.
Speaker 3: Get up shot ready, Yeah, make it make sense though.
Speaker 3: All right, So I'm a huge Riser fan. I'm a
Speaker 3: huge reris Of fan. Like I said, just Blu tag
Speaker 3: was was everything down to, like obviously getting every album
Speaker 3: that they made, probably when they I remember when they
Speaker 3: had to w on the cover of the Source and
Speaker 3: like it was the Red and that was it was
Speaker 3: the first time there wasn't a person on the cover.
Speaker 3: It was just a symbol of how they were moving
Speaker 3: at that time. I don't think there'll have be another
Speaker 3: movement like that. The fact that he was able to
Speaker 3: make all that music and have all that music and
Speaker 3: lost some of the music and still have that impact
Speaker 3: was incredible. Obviously, Dre is a legend. Most people put
Speaker 3: him as the best producer at that time. I was
Speaker 3: probably a bigger Rizz fan up until I think when
Speaker 3: Life After Death when I started looking at the credit,
Speaker 3: so I'm like, yo, damn Rizzi produce on that, right,
Speaker 3: And then I looked at and then I looked at
Speaker 3: Twisted Dogs Fantasy. I'm like, damn Risid produce on that.
Speaker 3: I'm like, yo, this, so the under I've taken the underdog.
Speaker 3: Obviously we know Dre's career and the catalog he's had,
Speaker 3: but I'm gonna take Risid.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean as far as a global person, doctor Dre.
Speaker 4: As far as what I was listening to impactful for me,
Speaker 4: it was it was Rizid Purple Tape. Specifically, Purple Tape
Speaker 4: changed everything for us and we was listening to it.
Speaker 4: It was a few albums, the infamous Purple Tape. It
Speaker 4: was written, that's like the Holy Trinity for me. So
Speaker 4: that Purple Tape. So you're picking Rizz, so we are
Speaker 4: for me personally. If I'm saying non objectively, the world
Speaker 4: of course is doctor Drek. Yeah, I'm so confused.
Speaker 3: Now I'm taking I'm taking Ris taking. Yeah. I mean
Speaker 3: Purple Tape was incredible, but even I mean you think
Speaker 3: about thirty six Chambers. That's a classic, right, Purple Tape classic.
Speaker 3: I love Liquids Swards like I thought, I thought that's
Speaker 3: what yeh, I thought that was when I thought that
Speaker 3: joint labels ridiculous and that was that was That song
Speaker 3: was like two years prior to Iron Man. I mean
Speaker 3: you're thinking about a guy that is like, he's making
Speaker 3: these songs, like I remember when he did the verses
Speaker 3: it was him verse. It was a classic verses too,
Speaker 3: was it premier? I think it was him verse permit
Speaker 3: it was it was rizz I think you about it
Speaker 3: was like before it became something else, and I was like, damn,
Speaker 3: rizk got a bunch. The man is another one that's
Speaker 3: just out of control, like in terms of catalog, but
Speaker 3: I'm like, yo, that catalog that had it slept on
Speaker 3: so track, yeah, called raizor Bumps. It was the Cols though,
Speaker 3: I think people sleep on to night cough Man. Yeah,
Speaker 3: all right, Scarface of ice Cube, Damn I go Scarface,
Speaker 3: I go Scarface. I'm probably leaning towards Scarface because I
Speaker 3: think The Fix is what I'm thinking catalogs. To Fix
Speaker 3: is one of my favorite albums, the first death jam
Speaker 3: album right Fix in Classic. Bought the CD and it
Speaker 3: came with Yeah, and I bought the vinyl and the
Speaker 3: vinyl came with the little dope bag inside of it.
Speaker 3: To Fix It was a mature album from artist that
Speaker 3: we watched grow from Ghetto Boys and my mom's paying
Speaker 3: tricks on me to The Fix. When you're hearing a
Speaker 3: man who's having reflection, who's talking about out that part
Speaker 3: of his life, but also talking about him finding God.
Speaker 3: The drum with faith on there is crazy. It's a
Speaker 3: great fix. Yeah.
Speaker 2: That remind me like a Donald's Goings book visualized everything
Speaker 2: that he said, Like you know when you read it
Speaker 2: Donald's Going Book, like you can see what he's saying.
Speaker 3: That that my block. I guess who's the Zach is
Speaker 3: on there?
Speaker 2: Uh?
Speaker 3: Is Kelly Price on? Kelly Price on it?
Speaker 7: Right?
Speaker 3: I think she's on it. That that's that's one of
Speaker 3: them and Cube From a music standpoint, I loved him
Speaker 3: in n w A loved them America's most Wanted West
Speaker 3: Side Connection I kind of was like it was to
Speaker 3: me it was the injection was it was the predator,
Speaker 3: lethal injections. Those are all to me up to that point.
Speaker 3: And then it changed when when we did Westside Connection,
Speaker 3: which I was like, all right, cool, I'm rocking with
Speaker 3: the guys out that L A L A.
Speaker 4: C Luis got you. All right, big your Big l
Speaker 4: G gotta go with Biggie. But Big L is he's
Speaker 4: one of the dopest he was.
Speaker 3: He would have done.
Speaker 4: I had an argument with Mickey Facts who said that
Speaker 4: Big L essentially was overrated.
Speaker 2: I don't agree.
Speaker 3: He said that he didn't live up to He literally
Speaker 3: didn't live so four song. His argument was like, when
Speaker 3: now he's assigning to Colombia, L was there right before
Speaker 3: before true he was. So you think about the time
Speaker 3: span by the same person, Faith Faith Newman. So you think,
Speaker 3: like ninety three to ninety he passes in ninety nine, right,
Speaker 3: he's maurder in ninety nine, So that's a six years span.
Speaker 3: In that same six year Spanns puts out it was
Speaker 3: written in ematic. Big puts out ready to die and
Speaker 3: life after death. Ja even puts out reasonable doubt. So
Speaker 3: he's his thing was like, and that's time span where
Speaker 3: these guys are creating what ninety three to ninety nine.
Speaker 3: I understand he didn't live up to his potential. Understand
Speaker 3: what Yeah, and then we could agree to that.
Speaker 6: It doesn't mean it changes, but he could have been
Speaker 6: like ninety eight right in ninety eight in his ninety right.
Speaker 3: So I'm saying, like, in those two years, you could
Speaker 3: still this cemented classics in that catalog. When they're saying,
Speaker 3: like from ninety three ninety seven outside of maybe his
Speaker 3: thing was like five songs, does he have that classic
Speaker 3: body of work? And I don't even think it's about
Speaker 3: the songs.
Speaker 6: I think we focused on what Viggo was as a
Speaker 6: lyricist as oh, no, for sure, that's what he.
Speaker 3: Did on the underground, Like well.
Speaker 6: No, yeah, And then they're saying the rumor was he
Speaker 6: was gonna sign I think we even asked what that
Speaker 6: could have been?
Speaker 3: Been crazy? That was his state. That was his argument,
Speaker 3: right in all fairness, b I g is b ig
Speaker 3: No Yeah, yeah, MJ or Prince.
Speaker 4: I got Michael Jackson shout the prince though we stay
Speaker 4: in his villain yeah, you.
Speaker 1: Know right, like yeah, let me tell you something. Wait,
Speaker 1: like wait a minute, I'm a married man. God, this

Speaker 3: like man, man.
Speaker 2: Said, man, Man, I don't know remember it was it
Speaker 2: was the manager at first, and then it was like
Speaker 2: basically like, yo, if Normy ain't rhyming on the beat,
Speaker 2: don't send me to beat.
Speaker 3: Michael Jackson, Yeah, did you wrong on it? No? No, no,
Speaker 3: if I wouldn't want nor wouldn't why I want to beat?
Speaker 2: Like he wants he wants.
Speaker 3: Beats, so.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you give me the ship that that whatever, because
Speaker 2: like I'm up in the middle. I think I was
Speaker 2: in the strip club or somewhere.
Speaker 3: He was like, you know.
Speaker 2: I was like, what's up about He's like, yo, man,
Speaker 2: Michael Jackson just told me. Like I was like, that
Speaker 2: was one of the best calls in my life. Dad
Speaker 2: and Biggie, Like when you see Biggie movie. You remember
Speaker 2: the Biggie movie and he was in l a and
Speaker 2: he makes those phone calls. Like I cried because I
Speaker 2: was one of those phone calls. He called me and
Speaker 2: he was split a verse Ma tilla and why And
Speaker 2: I was like, how did you get Instead of me
Speaker 2: being like happy, I was like, how did you get
Speaker 2: the record? Because I forgot bad Boy produced the record.
Speaker 3: My ricks before it came out. Yeah the first y'all,
Speaker 3: yeah this is gonna be yeah, this is going to
Speaker 3: be the remix.
Speaker 2: And I was just like, holy ship, and he was like,
Speaker 2: don't tell nobody. So I'm walking around with.
Speaker 3: Like possibly a big verse, the biggest dude, and I
Speaker 3: got to shut up. And then like two days later
Speaker 3: he is murdered. He got killed. You remember the verse?
Speaker 3: Hell no, like he kicked over the phone.
Speaker 2: Season remember this, Yeah, crazy, it was pretty diverses crazy.
Speaker 3: It was.
Speaker 2: The big vers especially had it been crazy from and
Speaker 2: and to take the truth and this is real talk.
Speaker 2: I've never really like said this part. I could tell
Speaker 2: like he was competing with with with nas. He wanted
Speaker 2: to compete with nas. He was like together, yeah, so
Speaker 2: he was like, yo, he wanted to like why happened
Speaker 2: to be it? Because I believe it was out like
Speaker 2: on like like a lower level, like a stretched armstrong
Speaker 2: and like that. But he had the instrumental like we
Speaker 2: didn't drop no instrumental.
Speaker 11: Like he that and then he wanted to sign poone right.
Speaker 11: He played he he he he, he played you the
Speaker 11: first to here. But he laid down.
Speaker 3: No, he did not lay he just he was like, yo,
Speaker 3: gough the room and then he just was and I
Speaker 3: was just like, that's crazy.
Speaker 2: He was like, yo, don't tell nobody. And I'm sitting
Speaker 2: there like he didn't write down there. I'm sure you
Speaker 2: know everybody that was with me, even though he said
Speaker 2: was like like that was.
Speaker 3: But imagine big Ones. I'm trying.
Speaker 4: I'm trying to imagine because I don't even picture his voice.
Speaker 2: Gotta that's the same person who made who shot you?
Speaker 3: Not my ricks? And why yeah?
Speaker 2: And why this same brothers as Carlos Bardway and that
Speaker 2: my ricks, the same people.
Speaker 4: Who may you know, you know what I gotta do.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna go to a I and be like, yo,
Speaker 4: put it, put it up, say imagine it, yeah, imagine
Speaker 4: to put it on that.
Speaker 3: What are you gonna use? Oh no, I gotta see
Speaker 3: what chat she saw? Right, they're right the round you
Speaker 3: ship rock might say, some wild ship all right, l
Speaker 3: A or Miami? Oh tough choice right now.
Speaker 4: In twenty twenty six, Miami shot to l A, but
Speaker 4: l A kind of changed a little bit after COVID
Speaker 4: it changes.
Speaker 3: It seems like all those expensively live in Miami. It
Speaker 3: seems like it's way.
Speaker 2: There.
Speaker 3: We just created. Yeah, number umber one, so number one
Speaker 3: New York question from San Francisco number one. Before you
Speaker 3: answer your question, right, remember what question of this? Right?
Speaker 3: I sent that to y'all the other day. He explained
Speaker 3: the whole thing. Yeah you did, so, so what did
Speaker 3: he explain? Explained? He said, that's a clip of a guy.
Speaker 4: Because you know, the headline was New York takes Miami
Speaker 4: takes New York.
Speaker 3: It is more expensive. So they were saying, it's not a.
Speaker 4: Fair comparison because New York they they're using a wider spectrum.
Speaker 4: In Miami they're using a smaller spectrum. So it's like,
Speaker 4: technically the greater Miami if you do the greater Miami
Speaker 4: area versus New York's greater New York are all the
Speaker 4: birs rounding areas Long Island, Westchester that they're comparing. No,
Speaker 4: I think they was only comparing versus Miami. I think
Speaker 4: something like that where it was the smallest case size.
Speaker 3: So it was like, it's kind of a misleading study
Speaker 3: because it's not showing entirety. It's showing like New York City.
Speaker 3: That's what it was. It was showing New York City,
Speaker 3: just New York City.
Speaker 4: But you know, okay, Manhattan, it is super expensive, but
Speaker 4: you still got the bronx that brings the price down
Speaker 4: some parts of Queens even. Like so it's like, but
Speaker 4: if you had all the surrounding areas, But they didn't
Speaker 4: just do the city of Miami.
Speaker 3: They did the surrounding areas.
Speaker 4: They had like Fort Lauderdale, they had Boca. Yeah, so
Speaker 4: it wasn't it was the greater Miami region versus just
Speaker 4: New York City here.
Speaker 3: But isn't that the Boro versus the great Miami area.
Speaker 3: So if you took Westchester County, if you took Long Island,
Speaker 3: Long Island, Nasau County, that you added those things in,
Speaker 3: then it's going to be different. So that's what they
Speaker 3: were saying, is the home prices. If you take a
Speaker 3: place like Scarsdale, which is one of the wealthiest cities
Speaker 3: in terms of home value and definitely in New York
Speaker 3: but maybe in the country, that's going to change the
Speaker 3: way we look at New York City, right because those
Speaker 3: homes twenty thirty million dollar homes, you add that into
Speaker 3: the mix, that it changed the conversation.
Speaker 4: So yeah, but I mean, of course, but long story
Speaker 4: show at Miami is still an expensive place, but it's
Speaker 4: not as expensive as New York when you look at
Speaker 4: it in totality. But Miami's cost of living has going
Speaker 4: up crazy. Just looking at apartments.
Speaker 3: I remember.
Speaker 4: Angela Ye told us she got an apartment and it
Speaker 4: already doubled where it's not built yet. It's like one
Speaker 4: of these new construction here in Miami.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's not even built yet and it's double trying
Speaker 3: to get down. So it's like new constructs. So are
Speaker 3: they comparing square footage like the price of square footage? Yeah, so,
Speaker 3: but Miami, you know they get you with the hoa
Speaker 3: fees out here a lot too crazy. I'm taking Miami too.
Speaker 3: I'm taking Miami over Miami's I always love Miami. My
Speaker 3: wife said, this is how happy, happy place. She like
Speaker 3: looking at the manatees. You got to live by the
Speaker 3: river White and Brooklyn. You see them joints in the morning,
Speaker 3: the rivers. Not almost lived by the river. That's what
Speaker 3: that's what the river. That's what I learned that dolphins getting.
Speaker 1: The river.
Speaker 2: I've seen dolphins running the whole shops on the ways.
Speaker 3: Better weather it gets cold in l A. Yeah, I
Speaker 3: forge about the better weather raised them out here.
Speaker 6: It raised the summer here is horrendous right now and
Speaker 6: it's more studying this morning.
Speaker 3: It was hard. It's human too, right. It's like because
Speaker 3: from both areas.
Speaker 6: I'm from l A originally moved to Miami, and I
Speaker 6: have family out there, so I know the weather both
Speaker 6: areas and actually like I like steady in la the weather.
Speaker 3: I like the l A. I like here in the
Speaker 3: cool night. Yeah, I hate humidity. Hurricanes, hurricanes I'll tell
Speaker 3: you what you got, hurricane over earth quakes.
Speaker 2: When it comes to business, I like l a a
Speaker 2: lot more Sure Miami, everybody's a scamma and nobody works.
Speaker 3: Everybody's That's why Young Miami made that record. Well right here,
Speaker 3: lie right here, they're right here, the regional record that
Speaker 3: turm global Thursday. This nigga worked for you, Pat Miami Saturday,
Speaker 3: that nigga got a Ferrari? What the fuck happened on Friday? Product?
Speaker 3: It was a good Miami.
Speaker 6: It's a very transient city, but it's also very global city,
Speaker 6: which I think is the positive side, you know, but
Speaker 6: it's it's a wild city.
Speaker 3: Miami is always above real estate or the stock market,
Speaker 3: the stock market, stock marks, stock market.
Speaker 6: Now, I have a question for the stock market for
Speaker 6: novice investors, right, Like people would think, okay, I'll invest right,
Speaker 6: But how do you equate that into your every day
Speaker 6: like pocket for yourself? Like you'd be like, okay, I'm
Speaker 6: investing it, but I never want to take the money
Speaker 6: out because I want to keep growing and if it dips,
Speaker 6: you definitely don't want to take it out.
Speaker 3: So how do you equate that into everyday normal spending value?
Speaker 4: Well, you can sell stock if you want to, right,
Speaker 4: but you don't want you don't want to. So here's
Speaker 4: what they're really rich people do and smart people do.
Speaker 4: They take loans from their portfolio. So, okay, you have
Speaker 4: ten million dollars in the stock market, right, But like
Speaker 4: you said, why would you sell that? Because even if
Speaker 4: you send.
Speaker 6: Ten million dollars in stock market, let's bring it down
Speaker 6: to the people that don't have ten mins. Let's freak
Speaker 6: it out to the guy who has five thousand dollars
Speaker 6: in the stock market.
Speaker 4: Well, well, I got, I got, I gotta give you
Speaker 4: that comparison, because no, but that's too crazy.
Speaker 3: Nobody but you. I gotta give you inspiration. I gotta
Speaker 3: give you inspiration. Okay, million average person doesn't have ten million.
Speaker 4: But the average person didn't have a yacht on the
Speaker 4: Hamafi coast when we was listening to Jay the average person,
Speaker 4: they have a ten million dollars chain, and we was
Speaker 4: listening to Baby the average person they have a phantom
Speaker 4: when we were seeing Knaves in Queensbridge with the Rose Royce.
Speaker 6: So let's take baby steps, please, because even what you're
Speaker 6: saying right now, even though you're inspiring, they're still like,
Speaker 6: I don't think I can get there yet.
Speaker 4: Good, I'm gonna all right, I'll get I'm gonna give
Speaker 4: you one side, He'll give you all the side.
Speaker 3: Let's bring it, let's let's take it. Let's let's do
Speaker 3: a million dollars.
Speaker 4: Okay, you have a million dollars in the stock market
Speaker 4: right now, even at of ten percent a year, right,
Speaker 4: which isn't crazy. You're making one hundred thousand dollars a
Speaker 4: year right doing nothing, just having your money. So like
Speaker 4: you said, why would you want to take your money
Speaker 4: out when it's making a hundred thousand and it's going
Speaker 4: to keep compounding so that one hundred thousand's going to
Speaker 4: turn to one hundred and ten thousand to one hundred
Speaker 4: and twenty thousand to two hundred thousand over the court,
Speaker 4: Like it's just just leave the money in. But you
Speaker 4: need money, so you're kind of like in a catch
Speaker 4: twenty two now with wealthy people do with that, they'll
Speaker 4: take a loan on their portfolio. So now you could
Speaker 4: you could take a lot of credit. They'll give you
Speaker 4: a lot of credit, which is better than a regular loan. Yeah,
Speaker 4: it's actually it's actually not a long it's a lot
Speaker 4: of credit. So you take you take a lot of
Speaker 4: credit on your portfolio. You get approved within a week
Speaker 4: at opposed to like refinancing the house, which takes everything
Speaker 4: you do an application online. They'll give you like, let's
Speaker 4: say sixty percent of your portfolio available at an interest
Speaker 4: rate that's like three percent. So now they'll give you
Speaker 4: six hundred thousand dollars. So now you have six hundred
Speaker 4: thousand dollars at your disposal that you can take a
Speaker 4: lot of credit on. So if you need fifty thousands,
Speaker 4: take fifty thousand. You pay it back on a monthly basis.
Speaker 4: You don't sell no stocks, so your stocks are still growing.
Speaker 4: So now you're accessing it. But the best part about
Speaker 4: it is tax free, So now you're not paying no tax.
Speaker 4: If you sell stocks, you pay taxes on it on
Speaker 4: the capitol show term. So because the credit of the
Speaker 4: loan is a liability, exactly exactly, so that's what people
Speaker 4: say it then Richard, people will be like, all right,
Speaker 4: so now that thing is like damn, you got to
Speaker 4: pay it back. Well maybe maybe not, because it if
Speaker 4: you don't pay it back, then when you when you
Speaker 4: pass away, it gets inherited to your to your descendant
Speaker 4: to your your inheritance. So now your beneficiaries get the money,
Speaker 4: but the portfolio has grown, so even if they got
Speaker 4: to take a portion out, your money has made money.
Speaker 3: Or what you do is you get a life insurance.
Speaker 4: So now if you have a five hundred thousand dollars loan,
Speaker 4: you've got a million dollar life insurance policy. The life
Speaker 4: insurance is taxed for you also, so now you're using
Speaker 4: that money to wipe it off. And it's like it's
Speaker 4: like it never happened. You never took you never, you
Speaker 4: never touched the money. The money kept growing. You was
Speaker 4: able to access money from that and the best part
Speaker 4: about it was tax free.
Speaker 6: And I think we should tell people like the line
Speaker 6: of credit. The thing that I found positive aout line
Speaker 6: of credits is as you pay it off, you're opening
Speaker 6: up more.
Speaker 3: Exactly, you get.
Speaker 4: More so you can use that your portfolio goals you
Speaker 4: get you get more credit as well.
Speaker 3: Right, so in your portfolio piece, that's the number that
Speaker 3: you're getting the loan at. But again, the portfolio is
Speaker 3: going to rise, right if we're invested in the right
Speaker 3: companies that are going to grow that you think five
Speaker 3: to ten, twenty years what does that look like? Right?
Speaker 3: So I mean and it's non taxtable, which is the
Speaker 3: most important part for the person who's trying to start, right,
Speaker 3: I think the foundation is important, So like owning shares
Speaker 3: is important, right. If you don't own shares, you can't
Speaker 3: do that, right, So if you get five ten shares.
Speaker 3: The other part is like, after we've gotten some shares
Speaker 3: and we've created our foundation, we trade derivatives, right, And
Speaker 3: so derivatives, options markets, futures markets, commodities which we don't
Speaker 3: really do too much of, which is inside the futures market.
Speaker 3: So if I'm in a company like Nvidia, right, and
Speaker 3: I'm going to have ten shares, twenty shares, one hundred shares,
Speaker 3: then I'm going to go to the derivative side and
Speaker 3: try to figure out if I can make option calls
Speaker 3: right puts and calls right options, meaning that I'm making
Speaker 3: a predictive price point that's an expiration date on what
Speaker 3: it's going to get to. And this is the price
Speaker 3: which is the right price of where it's going to
Speaker 3: be at a certain time. And so why is that
Speaker 3: important in terms of your idea? Because that expires, right,
Speaker 3: So there's going to be a certain time that that's
Speaker 3: going to expire either I've made money on it, I
Speaker 3: can sell it, or it's going to expire worthless. Now
Speaker 3: hopefully you've done it. You obviously educate yourself in that space.
Speaker 3: But those that type of income is going to be
Speaker 3: maybe yearly or it's going to be maybe every two years.
Speaker 3: Why is that important? Because that, again is short term
Speaker 3: capital games is long term capital gains. You're going to
Speaker 3: have to pick capital gains on it. Right, If you
Speaker 3: do it for a year in a day, that's going
Speaker 3: to be long term. Anything under that is going to
Speaker 3: be short term. That's the difference between maybe thirty six
Speaker 3: percent and twenty percent. Right. So the person was saying,
Speaker 3: how do I can I build capital? Now I don't
Speaker 3: have a million dollars, I don't have ten thousand dollars.
Speaker 3: Let's start with shares, it's a company you believe in,
Speaker 3: then let's maybe look into derivatives. If I'm invested in
Speaker 3: the video and it's had one hundred and ninety five dollars,
Speaker 3: and I believe in this company, and I know that
Speaker 3: they're going to have three earnings reports, and I know
Speaker 3: that they have new technology, and they have different types
Speaker 3: of initiatives, and I can see that global expansion. So
Speaker 3: I think that company gets to two hundred and five
Speaker 3: dollars by July of next year or August of next year. Yeah,
Speaker 3: So I'll take out a contract on that, and as
Speaker 3: that company gets to that strike price, we're gonna make
Speaker 3: money on that. If it goes past it, we make
Speaker 3: even more. Right, but that's going to expire in a
Speaker 3: certain time. Now you can continue to do that. You
Speaker 3: can take the profit from that and say, hey, I'm
Speaker 3: just going to reinvest it. I might say, all right,
Speaker 3: got to two o five, Well let me give myself
Speaker 3: another two years, kind of get to two ten and
Speaker 3: when we just rint and repeat. Now you've generated income
Speaker 3: from a derivative and you kept your shares right, you
Speaker 3: still believe in it. Or you might take some of
Speaker 3: that income and say, I'm gona buy more shares so
Speaker 3: I have the foundation because I never have to sell
Speaker 3: the shares. Like you just said, I never have to
Speaker 3: sell them. They're going to continue to appreciate it. But
Speaker 3: I'm gonna do that in strong companies, and that can
Speaker 3: create income force in the intermedia. You mentioned in video.
Speaker 6: I want to shut out you guys and Ian that
Speaker 6: couldn't make it because of you guys Ian specifically he
Speaker 6: mentioned in video a lot years ago, and I went
Speaker 6: ahead and took that advice and invested in video and
Speaker 6: it's been very profitable.
Speaker 3: So shut out. When we came here today, we were like, look,
Speaker 3: we heard e f and said we're here to collect
Speaker 3: our reparations. No, but that's dope, Like that's information, right,
Speaker 3: Like most people have never even heard of the company.
Speaker 3: It's was a five trillion dollar company up until recently,
Speaker 3: but people don't know about it because it's not in
Speaker 3: your house.
Speaker 6: Well, if you if you're watching what's going on with Ai, yeah,
Speaker 6: when you hear you guys explained it, and I did
Speaker 6: the research after I didn't just blindly exactly.
Speaker 3: I looked.
Speaker 6: I was like, oh yeah, this is the future. This
Speaker 6: is what's running this whole thing, the chips and everything.
Speaker 6: Then I said okay, and then I actually invested in
Speaker 6: it and forgot about.
Speaker 3: It and went back. I said, oh shit, exactly. So
Speaker 3: I'm waiting for that moment for people because once they
Speaker 3: see that that money's made money, Oh, let me do
Speaker 3: that again. The problem is people say, all right, I
Speaker 3: watched that dude, Big three thousand dollars yesterday. I'm a
Speaker 3: day trader. I'm gonna buy it today and hopefully we'll
Speaker 3: make money by next week. And I'm like, nah, no,
Speaker 3: you gotta invest it, you gotta believe in it, and
Speaker 3: you just gotta let it, right, Like, we're gonna let
Speaker 3: that bubble. We're gonna let it. And then when you
Speaker 3: come back, you're like, oh shit. Once you've had that
Speaker 3: moment that you've seen your money make money and be like,
Speaker 3: why what else would I do but have my money
Speaker 3: make money, it becomes contagious, like, and that's what we
Speaker 3: got to get to people too. So the first part
Speaker 3: is I had this conversation the other day. I'm like,
Speaker 3: have you ever heard of a video? And they were like, no,
Speaker 3: I've never heard of it. I'm like, okay, all right,
Speaker 3: so we you have you've heard of Apple? Yeah, you
Speaker 3: have a phone. All right, Well let's start there. Let's
Speaker 3: look at it. This company. Now, this is a five
Speaker 3: trillion dollar company, right, And so most people it's easy
Speaker 3: for me to break down Apple because number one, if
Speaker 3: they're using the phone. Number two, they got the MacBook,
Speaker 3: they got the iPod, they got the You've already been
Speaker 3: a customer of this company, then they've never been an
Speaker 3: owner of it, and so that mindset shift changes everything.
Speaker 3: All right, let's see, we're almost done with these guys.
Speaker 4: Loyalty or respect, Oh, that's the that's that's the big
Speaker 4: one that you guys ask everybody and loyalty, all respect.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna I'm gonna take loyalty. I'll take loyalty. Yeah.
Speaker 3: I think respect. I mean I think that that waves right,
Speaker 3: and we're seeing it now with the ballets you talked about.
Speaker 3: I'm sure at some point these guys were highly respected.
Speaker 3: You looked at them as highly respected, and as you
Speaker 3: grow that kind of phase like, oh I can do
Speaker 3: what they do now matter fact, let me challenge them,
Speaker 3: and then all respect goes out the window. I think
Speaker 3: loyalty is something that if you have loyalty, if people
Speaker 3: and your around people are loyal, that stays.
Speaker 4: I'll take respect, because what you're speaking of the people
Speaker 4: that lost respect for a person if as long as
Speaker 4: you keep I don't I need loyalty from a few
Speaker 4: people in my life. I don't need loyalty from more
Speaker 4: than everybody, five people, probably maybe even less than that.
Speaker 4: I don't need loyalty from every single person that I know.
Speaker 4: I do need respect from every single person that I know.
Speaker 3: I got to count it to that. So if you
Speaker 3: respect me, we can have a great relationship. You don't
Speaker 3: got to be loyal to me, like you know what
Speaker 3: I'm saying, Like, I don't even you got I'm not
Speaker 3: expecting you to be loyalty. Like if I don't like somebody,
Speaker 3: loyalty would be like you don't like them either, But no,
Speaker 3: I don't. I wouldn't feel no way if I saw
Speaker 3: you with some person that I didn't like, Because you
Speaker 3: know what I'm saying, that thought our relationship. But we
Speaker 3: respect each other.
Speaker 4: So if somebody speaking bad about me, you would be like, yo, nah,
Speaker 4: you know, let's not do it in front of me,
Speaker 4: or you let me know, or you just kind of corrected.
Speaker 3: That's respect. So I'm big on respect.
Speaker 4: I think that respect for me is higher on the
Speaker 4: total pole for most people than loyalty.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'll say even in terms of business, like loyalty
Speaker 3: plays a bigger part like look at your phone, right,
Speaker 3: look his phone, my phone, probably yours yours. That's not
Speaker 3: a respect factor. You're loyal to them. Oh you do
Speaker 3: respect apple to but you respect Samsung. You appreciate what
Speaker 3: they do, but your loyalties to that brand or you
Speaker 3: would have chose Samsung five years ago, you would have
Speaker 3: chose it last year, you would have chosen ten years ago.
Speaker 3: But you're loyal to Apple. Would you call that loyalty though,
Speaker 3: or just you're familiar with this brand and that's what
Speaker 3: they bank it on. It's not even familiarity because it's
Speaker 3: been at one point. At one point, at one point
Speaker 3: you would next, hell was a phone?
Speaker 2: Right?
Speaker 3: Or like when they had the Scott Pages that was
Speaker 3: that was anything? Right? But they're banking on that loyal
Speaker 3: to every year because that's the carrier. But here's the thing,
Speaker 3: that phone has been the same for the past seven
Speaker 3: years and you never left, right. But I don't know
Speaker 3: if I already quit that with loyalty, it's brand loyalty,
Speaker 3: you see what I'm saying.
Speaker 6: I think familiarity is like you're just familiar with the device,
Speaker 6: you know how to use it, you don't want to
Speaker 6: switch it.
Speaker 3: You might even know that why better why you're just
Speaker 3: familiar with it.
Speaker 6: But that's what I don't know if that's loyalty, I
Speaker 6: wouldn't consider that loyalty.
Speaker 3: See why you ll because real brand. Look to the
Speaker 3: point where at one point we were like, look if
Speaker 3: I get a green text, they're not with us. I
Speaker 3: said that before you know why you're right.
Speaker 6: I'm gonna tell you why you're right because my son,
Speaker 6: my son was came into my office and he's like
Speaker 6: and I never talked to him about devices or nothing.
Speaker 3: He doesn't have a device himself. We Apple, what it
Speaker 3: got you?
Speaker 6: He's like Apple, Apple, He points, he points that the
Speaker 6: computer everywhere in your house.
Speaker 3: And I'm like you, Yet, you could have chose another computer.
Speaker 3: You could have chose another headphone company. You could have
Speaker 3: chose another of violence. It's called the tablet. But we
Speaker 3: know you got to iPad. You could have chose another tablet,
Speaker 3: but you didn't.
Speaker 4: I'm saying as a okay, as a counter argument, when
Speaker 4: you said you talked about these countries that you went
Speaker 4: to Satia Arabia, you can't smoke in Singapore. You can't smoke.
Speaker 4: And you know, loyalty is I'm holding a flag, I
Speaker 4: pledge allegiance. I have a deep reverence for this country.
Speaker 4: Respect is I respect the laws of the land. You
Speaker 4: don't got to be loyal to a country to respect
Speaker 4: the lawyers of the land. When you go places, how
Speaker 4: do you establish law in order to respect? So the countries,
Speaker 4: they don't need you to be loyal to the country,
Speaker 4: but not being respectful is not optional.
Speaker 3: Loyalt loyalty is a choice. Respect is not negotiable, right.
Speaker 6: Because loyalty doesn't have to even be evident. But awkwardly,
Speaker 6: arrest of my case, how many countries are there? Every country?
Speaker 3: America? America loyalty respect? You think people coming That's why
Speaker 3: people are getting locked up and doing all types of
Speaker 3: getting harassed for not standing up during you just said,
Speaker 3: like I can go on any media right now and
Speaker 3: talk about the President United States, but that's part of
Speaker 3: the American bylaws. That's what I'm saying. They does not
Speaker 3: respect anymore. Hold on the finish, it's not respect anymore.
Speaker 3: And I can say that about the Vice President. I
Speaker 3: can say that about the Secretary of War. I don't
Speaker 3: have to respect them because that's my freedom of speech.
Speaker 3: There are some companies that's not you don't have to write.
Speaker 3: But go back to the World Cup. What do you
Speaker 3: see loyalty to their country? It's different. We can't we
Speaker 3: can't fathom it because we look at it differently. We
Speaker 3: have the freedom to say, like, yeah, I ain't fucking
Speaker 3: with that, and I don't have to funk with that.
Speaker 3: Fucking up right now, I'm blurring up the line respect.
Speaker 4: That's not a disrespect because America was founded on free speech.
Speaker 4: So what I'm saying is the respect is the by
Speaker 4: laws of the country. What are the Republicans saying. If
Speaker 4: you want to come here, you got to do it
Speaker 4: this way. You got to respect the country. You gotta
Speaker 4: speak English. This is a thing, this freedom of speech
Speaker 4: thing is not disrespectful in America because it's part of
Speaker 4: the American fabric. But there are some things that are
Speaker 4: disrespectful in America, right that you can do it that
Speaker 4: you can't do America, that you could do all other places.
Speaker 4: But I wouldn't necessarily say talking bad about a politician
Speaker 4: is disrespectful because it's in the bylaws of the country
Speaker 4: that you can talk bad about the country.
Speaker 3: It's like when you come to my house, take your
Speaker 3: shoes off.
Speaker 4: If you purposely know that I have a rule to
Speaker 4: take my shoes, your shoes off and you wear your
Speaker 4: boots in my house, that's disrespectful.
Speaker 3: But when you go to somebody else's house. They don't
Speaker 3: have that rule.
Speaker 4: So me wearing shoes in their house is not disrespectful
Speaker 4: because to them, that's not their rule. But they might
Speaker 4: have a set standard. Take your hat off. Now if
Speaker 4: I wear my hat, that's disrespectful. So every when you
Speaker 4: go to somebody's house, we all have rules. And the
Speaker 4: respect in one person's house is different from the respect
Speaker 4: and different person's house. But the common denominated is every
Speaker 4: house has some level of normalized respect that people follow.
Speaker 3: I think I think England would be the idea of
Speaker 3: what loyalty looks like when England fucked up loyalty. This
Speaker 3: is what I'm saying. I'm not saying it's good. I'm
Speaker 3: not saying Brexit no, no, no, in terms of I'm
Speaker 3: not saying it's a good thing. But like if you go,
Speaker 3: especially like growing up in like sixties seventies, like people
Speaker 3: honor the Queen of England. This is a Jamaican background
Speaker 3: coming out right, this is true. But go to Canada,
Speaker 3: same thing, right, they're loyal to that that it ain't
Speaker 3: even about respect. You know, we were loyal to the kingdom.
Speaker 6: What do they call that with the queen in every country?
Speaker 6: What do they call that the way that they they're
Speaker 6: a part of the Kingdom. What do they call it again,
Speaker 6: the common Wealth? Common They are the Commonwealth and they're
Speaker 6: going to be long to.
Speaker 4: That's that's crazy to me. I know that the Commonwealth
Speaker 4: is still hold brot.
Speaker 3: It's not. One of one of my mom's greatest moments
Speaker 3: is when the Queen of England flew into Jamaica and
Speaker 3: she was waiting there as a child at the airport
Speaker 3: to watch the plane land. She'll tell you that and
Speaker 3: I'm like, yo, just why for the plane in the land. Well,
Speaker 3: I mean it's the Commonwealth, so she's the queen, right,
Speaker 3: So like they're like, oh my gosh, they had all
Speaker 3: the kids that said the Queen of England is. I
Speaker 3: know they had dominance, but I didn't realize that that
Speaker 3: was a colony of talenty.
Speaker 4: Wow, Australia, I mean even places, even when you go
Speaker 4: to Canada, they got and Canada got the French.
Speaker 3: Side and the English and which is yeah, and they
Speaker 3: don't like each other. They Canadian. That's what these conversations.
Speaker 4: Look at their money, they still have the Queen of
Speaker 4: England's face on their money.
Speaker 3: Well it's the king now they print dollars. They have
Speaker 3: the Royal family England, Royal family face on their money.
Speaker 3: So Charles on the on the on the currency now
Speaker 3: and then Prince well he'll be King William will be
Speaker 3: on the face of the money. But the homie that
Speaker 3: was messing with the black girl, they got him.
Speaker 2: Out of there.
Speaker 3: He's not even thinking ruling car Damn. You know no
Speaker 3: more used to be a just Los stripes. Harry break
Speaker 3: yeah said he married him.
Speaker 12: Man, Yeah, I know, trust me, we know Sonny got
Speaker 12: Sonny got a pitch. So let's get cool, let's get it.
Speaker 12: Let's hold relax. You're getting ahead of yourself before.
Speaker 2: We get to that.
Speaker 3: Our shows about giving people they flowers. They to us
Speaker 3: what the appreciate You get flowers the first time? Right now?
Speaker 2: That one, not that one.
Speaker 3: You give it to that Yeah, get his flowers? Oh
Speaker 3: wow that yeah? Yeah, yeah, I got this in the
Speaker 3: crib right now. This is fine, Thank you too. Tom.
Speaker 3: This is a two time until he now he gotta
Speaker 3: gotta make it to the next one. That's what you
Speaker 3: were saying about. Got the suitcase from the yalla.
Speaker 6: As you run out, I'm like listen, So last time
Speaker 6: Sonny gave a pitch. It was damon right, Yeah, he
Speaker 6: did this we called the drunk tank. It's different and
Speaker 6: it didn't go well, right, And I hope he came
Speaker 6: more serious with his pitch. We want to see that
Speaker 6: his business idea makes sense to y'all. So go ahead, Sonny, let's.
Speaker 3: Get it to the microphone.
Speaker 5: But yeah, he already went in with the shirt. Everything
Speaker 5: is business, everything's passed. When somebody gets a it will
Speaker 5: be you. Actually, you know, you're kind of like your
Speaker 5: own business whatever, because you know.
Speaker 3: Whether you make fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 5: A year working for somebody, your business makes fifty thousand dollars,
Speaker 5: it's the same ship, right, my differences in taxes.
Speaker 3: I'm doing this for a lot of people. By the way,
Speaker 3: just saying you're doing work for a lot of people.
Speaker 3: Where I'm going with this pitch. You're representing a lot
Speaker 3: of people.
Speaker 5: But I don't have around aspire on to be happy
Speaker 5: with people, right, because only fifteen percent of the population
Speaker 5: in America have a business, So what about that?
Speaker 3: Yeah, because it's true like six percent. Yeah that knowes
Speaker 3: he knows only.
Speaker 2: Six percent of man and blow up.
Speaker 5: You know it's my numbers. What I'm saying, if eighty
Speaker 5: five percent of people are working, why don't people who work?
Speaker 3: And I know a lot of it has to do
Speaker 3: with discipline. Why fits right? You just feeling I haven't
Speaker 3: You guys don't know my point? Listen to my friend.
Speaker 5: That's about what I got.
Speaker 3: Yes, are you going to pitch your business? Are you
Speaker 3: going to ask question? I am not going to put
Speaker 3: your business? The point, bro, that's one of that. But
Speaker 3: the start, the start is great. That that idea, that
Speaker 3: mindset where I'm going with you. You know what I'm saying,
Speaker 3: since I started, these are my friends. They gotta big
Speaker 3: pres ship. He's righting his mentality in his mindset. I
Speaker 3: was teaching for fourteen years. I was working you guys
Speaker 3: eight thirty eight o'clock to like three thirty most days. Right.
Speaker 3: So the idea of like being an employer is important, right,
Speaker 3: But the idea of looking at it like the school
Speaker 3: district at that time was my investor, right, investor in you.
Speaker 3: They invested in me, and they got return on their investment.
Speaker 3: They pay me for that service, but they got return
Speaker 3: on the investment. I always say, like, how I was
Speaker 3: respected inside of that school community, How I was received
Speaker 3: by the children. Right, the rapport that I built with
Speaker 3: my colleagues inside that space, there's a return on the investment. Right,
Speaker 3: I'm pouring back into that community. What I do with
Speaker 3: that investor's money, well, that would be up to me, right,
Speaker 3: Obviously if I make more, If I do more, I
Speaker 3: get paid more. In that system. Most people think, I'm
Speaker 3: just getting paid for my job and I'm going to
Speaker 3: pay my bills with that and I'm going to live
Speaker 3: my life. And I'm looking at it from a standpoint. Okay,
Speaker 3: they're going to invest money, and me, what am I
Speaker 3: going to do with this money? Obviously I have to
Speaker 3: live somewhere, or obviously I have to invest. Maybe I
Speaker 3: can start a business. I got good friends who are
Speaker 3: doing things in that space that entrepreneurs is. That's something
Speaker 3: I can pursue. But most people don't think like that.
Speaker 3: So I like where you started with the mindset piece
Speaker 3: because that's the most important part. It was all point
Speaker 3: from the shirt man.
Speaker 5: But why is it that the average millionaire in America's
Speaker 5: at the average age is in the sixties. Everyone wants
Speaker 5: it in their twenties, and people don't think they could
Speaker 5: work and be able to invest their way twenty five years,
Speaker 5: thirty years down the line and have the seven figure
Speaker 5: portfolio via investing every time.
Speaker 3: They get paid, which is not much.
Speaker 5: I mean, it's very minimal to invest if you're in
Speaker 5: your twenties and then the thirty in your thirties.
Speaker 3: It goes up a little bit in your forties.
Speaker 5: That's kind of like the time between you know, twenty
Speaker 5: five years forty fifty years old against real deep because
Speaker 5: now you have to invest a lot monthly time. Why
Speaker 5: don't people do the long game? Because people really don't
Speaker 5: think they could get rich from work in a job.
Speaker 5: And I don't know why people think that when all
Speaker 5: you have to do is have the discipline and take
Speaker 5: advantage of a four to one and do the employer match.
Speaker 5: Give even more if you have to keep your bills low,
Speaker 5: forget Louis Vaton by Nike. You know, play your position,
Speaker 5: and the younger the younger you start, the less you
Speaker 5: have to invest the month. I don't know why people
Speaker 5: don't think like that when eighty five percent of the
Speaker 5: country works for someone else.
Speaker 3: It's a good point, man. You you said everything right there,
Speaker 3: But I can't answer his own question. No, I know
Speaker 3: what I'm talking you know, because why don't we don't
Speaker 3: talk business with the guys. A lot of people talk
Speaker 3: to them about business people started businesses.
Speaker 5: They want to know this, but we forget about the
Speaker 5: eighty five percent when I want the eighty five percent.
Speaker 3: To be inspired to know that this is the lake round.
Speaker 3: You can start working.
Speaker 5: You don't even have to make that much money to
Speaker 5: the average millionaire in America never made one hundred grand
Speaker 5: gold on.
Speaker 3: I'm just telling y'all stuff.
Speaker 5: The average millionaire, the majority of millionaires in America never
Speaker 5: made one hundred grand in their life.
Speaker 4: And then now you put up a lot of good points,
Speaker 4: you did a lot of great research. I think it's
Speaker 4: the lay gratification. Nobody everybody wants to get rich quick
Speaker 4: or get rich in a moment. They don't want to
Speaker 4: wait thirty years, but they gonna wait thirty years to
Speaker 4: be broke anyway. So if you're gonna wait thirty years
Speaker 4: and still be broke, you might for wait thirty years
Speaker 4: and be rich if you think about it, right, Because
Speaker 4: the only thing of waiting, the only thing worse than
Speaker 4: waiting thirty years to get rich is spending thirty years
Speaker 4: and still being broke.
Speaker 3: So the only the only thing worse than because that's
Speaker 3: what you hit that all the time.
Speaker 4: So you're telling me I gotta wait thirty years to
Speaker 4: get it like millions of dollars.
Speaker 3: You buther, you out your fucking mind.
Speaker 4: The only thing worse than waiting thirty years to get
Speaker 4: rich is spending thirty years being broke, right Like when
Speaker 4: Big said being broken thirty give a niggata chills? Okay,
Speaker 4: how you think it feels being broken seventy working at
Speaker 4: Walmart because you have to.
Speaker 6: I think, really most of it has been lack of education.
Speaker 6: I think, like for example, and there's also I come
Speaker 6: from the era of predatory lending. Yeah, I had no
Speaker 6: money coming in and I had credit cards, but actually,
Speaker 6: to be honest with you, I leveraged those credit cards
Speaker 6: to start building my business. But I found myself in
Speaker 6: debt and I had issues.
Speaker 3: Down the line.
Speaker 6: I was able to finally fix them down the line,
Speaker 6: but that caused me a problem other people might be.
Speaker 3: A problem that can never come back from. So I
Speaker 3: think it's education.
Speaker 6: There's issues like predatory lending or other things that could
Speaker 6: happen like that that stop people from from.
Speaker 3: All those things play play a role. It's the mindset,
Speaker 3: right it's the immediate gratification. It's gotten worse because now
Speaker 3: we're seeing more, right, Like I didn't know how somebody
Speaker 3: in Miami was living on a daily basis. Now I
Speaker 3: can't run from it. It's on my phone every day,
Speaker 3: and so people are chasing that. Like we come from environments,
Speaker 3: but we haven't had for so long that we want
Speaker 3: it fast. But like fast money don't last long, right,
Speaker 3: we know that, Right, You're always gonna have to chase it.
Speaker 3: And so we got to get to that mindset where
Speaker 3: it's like, Okay, can I hold something for five years?
Speaker 3: People only have relationships out of five years, I think
Speaker 3: they're gonna have money that's going to be in an
Speaker 3: account for five years. Right, we want things now, we
Speaker 3: want it, But that's not how wealth works. Like I
Speaker 3: don't even want people to get rich, I want them
Speaker 3: to be wealthy, Like that's right for the rich, just
Speaker 3: get wealthy. Who else gonna fee?
Speaker 2: Wee?
Speaker 3: Like, we got to get to that point, and the
Speaker 3: only way to do that is to have time on
Speaker 3: your side. It's the most valuable asset that we can
Speaker 3: have because we've seen and you brought out those stats
Speaker 3: where historically the market has given us thirteen percent and
Speaker 3: each year. But we grew up in especially me, we
Speaker 3: was like, yo, put your money in a Savers account
Speaker 3: and that Savi's account going that you points zero three
Speaker 3: percent and you made nothing on it. But that's what
Speaker 3: we're taught. That's lack of education. The mindset, the education,
Speaker 3: those go hand in hand. And then you got to
Speaker 3: figure out all the factors that are contributing to us
Speaker 3: not learning right. And it's just to be fair, I
Speaker 3: mean to I'm saying lack of financial education. Fincial think
Speaker 3: about what what has entertained us and pretty much taught
Speaker 3: us right. It was music, it was sports, it was movies.
Speaker 3: We didn't get these lessons from people that look like us,
Speaker 3: and so now in this day, and that's why I like, now,
Speaker 3: I'm like, there is no excuse, right, there's education everywhere.
Speaker 3: Now who you're getting it from, yeah, you should vet
Speaker 3: that out, but there's education has really available that you
Speaker 3: should be taking advantage of. Because there was an error
Speaker 3: where there wasn't that and we just have to learn
Speaker 3: on our own, and sometimes it crippled us. We never
Speaker 3: were able to come back. Sometimes it worked out in
Speaker 3: that benefit. A lot of times it didn't most people
Speaker 3: are just trying to how can i's about today?
Speaker 4: Right, And that's and that's what invest FST is for
Speaker 4: invest Fest August seventh through Knife in Atlanta. That's August
Speaker 4: seven through the Knife, so soon this week, yeah, this week, Yeah,
Speaker 4: for sure, that's the institution because we it's one thing
Speaker 4: to learn things virtually, it's another thing to actually have
Speaker 4: a set community. So school is a reason why schools
Speaker 4: will never die because you need that communal feel. You
Speaker 4: need to be around other people, you need to see
Speaker 4: be motivated inspired learn like in person events, in person learning,
Speaker 4: in person education, it's still unparallel. Even though virtual education
Speaker 4: is great, we do both. But you know's that was
Speaker 4: the whole idea why we created invest Fest is to
Speaker 4: actually create something that's never been done before. Because we've
Speaker 4: seen music festival at the highest level, We've seen you know, fashion,
Speaker 4: we've seen so many different things about culture, but we've
Speaker 4: never really seen a business event that every year, people
Speaker 4: come from really all over the world at this point
Speaker 4: migrate to the city of Atlanta and for three days
Speaker 4: they only talking about stocks, crypto, real estate, How can
Speaker 4: you how can we get better? How can we improve
Speaker 4: my credit? You're doing the deal, let's work. Let's let's
Speaker 4: figure out how we could do something people. That's the
Speaker 4: number one thing people say is like, my friends are
Speaker 4: not on what I'm on, or my city is limiting.
Speaker 4: This is that's you need to change your environment. You
Speaker 4: need to change your social circle. It's hard to make
Speaker 4: new friends as an adult. That's why you got to
Speaker 4: step outside your comfort zone. Get an environment. So that's
Speaker 4: when we put together that work, that that ecosystem in
Speaker 4: the in person experience of invest Fest, and it's just
Speaker 4: grown every single year.
Speaker 3: So that's why. But that's why because I like, you know,
Speaker 3: they're not going to listen to the lead, not the people.
Speaker 5: Yet everyone in the business, every single one of my
Speaker 5: friends there has a business.
Speaker 3: That's not true. I mean, you're you're being very kind
Speaker 3: of that's okay, we have for ten businesses, let's go.
Speaker 5: But what I'm saying is back to the working person.
Speaker 5: If you're twenty years old, and I want people to
Speaker 5: understand and believe this.
Speaker 3: Is like in twenty year olds. Man, let's get back
Speaker 3: to that's my chops all the time. I don't even
Speaker 3: that's what you know? Man, you got right? You know,
Speaker 3: stay and I'm with these guys, And I'm with these guys.
Speaker 5: Yeah, if you're twenty years old, how much would you
Speaker 5: have to invest for the thirty years to become seven figures?
Speaker 3: Were don't do that? I know the numbers. What's the numbers?
Speaker 3: You tell us, No, it's not it's less than five
Speaker 3: hundred bucks a month. Yeah, I would have said seven
Speaker 3: figures the time you sixty five thinking, you said, you know,
Speaker 3: thirty years, thirty, thirty, twenty, forty years, fifty, will you
Speaker 3: be a millionaire at five hundred dollars a month? Probably?
Speaker 6: Yeah, definitely, yeah, Yeah, you.
Speaker 3: Know ten percent of Yeah?
Speaker 2: How that?
Speaker 3: Yeah, you're putting five hundred away in your bank. You
Speaker 3: said investment, let's see become invest The S and P
Speaker 3: on average over the past hundred years is need thirteen percent.
Speaker 3: So you figure and you're doing that monthly, right, so
Speaker 3: there might be months you got mon months. There might
Speaker 3: be months where it's close to nineteen percent, right on average,
Speaker 3: So you figure you do that one hundred and seventy nine.
Speaker 3: So if you do that on an average, yeah, I
Speaker 3: mean you could be closes. The problem is that over
Speaker 3: that thirty years, inflation is still a factor, right, So
Speaker 3: it's just good that's why the percentage, right, So, like
Speaker 3: the million dollars is not the same value in thirty years,
Speaker 3: it's more than we have. You're gonna be better than
Speaker 3: you have.
Speaker 4: You so in thirty and thirty years, if you put
Speaker 4: away five hundred dollars and it earns ten percent a year,
Speaker 4: in thirty years, you have one point one.
Speaker 3: One point one three actually, to be exact, one point
Speaker 3: one point three million dollars.
Speaker 4: And that's and that's so the interest return on that
Speaker 4: is nine hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
Speaker 3: So what you mean you made that's all interest, so
Speaker 3: you're pretty much all of the money. Also, money is
Speaker 3: about what you put in, yeah, for that type of return,
Speaker 3: what that return is.
Speaker 5: And then there's a there's an amount at thirty years
Speaker 5: old which will be less than.
Speaker 3: What you're gating on that, like.
Speaker 4: Under now one hundred and fifty thousand, So you would
Speaker 4: your principle, Your principle is one hundred and eighty thousand mills.
Speaker 3: That's how much money. So thirty years you put in
Speaker 3: one hundred and eighty thousand and you made nine hundred
Speaker 3: and fifty thousands. Feels like it breaks well, I mean
Speaker 3: five hundred five hundred is actually a lot for the
Speaker 3: average person a month. A month, that's not well to
Speaker 3: two hundred. Whatever you can do two fifty you can
Speaker 3: do is positive, right, But we're gonna spend a hundred.
Speaker 3: We're gonna spend two hundred fifty thouars on the most
Speaker 3: ridiculous nonsense every month. We don't do it. It's just
Speaker 3: a choice. They don't think they have. But you know
Speaker 3: what it is.
Speaker 5: It's the Yolo mentality, like you might die tomorrow, so
Speaker 5: let me live it up right, right, But that's what
Speaker 5: I'm saying.
Speaker 3: Then you get stuck being alive at fifty something, you're like,
Speaker 3: oh fuck, yo, happened Now you're still right and you
Speaker 3: got and you got no money? Yeah, people living longer, right,
Speaker 3: So the fifty year olds looking at it, like, damn
Speaker 3: do I have fifty fifties? The new thirty?
Speaker 4: If you ain't think about it, man, I'm fifty one
Speaker 4: and I'm happy exactly.
Speaker 3: Like then as you get older, you stay making more. Yeah,
Speaker 3: so so like, no, right, you don't have to do
Speaker 3: a five hundred. He's made more you could make. You
Speaker 3: can put dollars. You shortened the time because you double
Speaker 3: the money. They could put a fact. You know what
Speaker 3: I'm saying. You put a thousand dollars. Now you don't
Speaker 3: wait thirty years. Now that fifty you got it at
Speaker 3: sixty five. Now it's play to make it something. I'm like, not,
Speaker 3: you know what I'm saying. Thirty But that's what I did.
Speaker 3: I said, let me speed up what I didn't do
Speaker 3: before me.
Speaker 5: I got to go in now and now you're and
Speaker 5: now you have muscle to now say you know what,
Speaker 5: Now it's time to start a business because I got
Speaker 5: some capital. Everyone wants to start a business now because
Speaker 5: they see everyone got a business. Why don't you get
Speaker 5: you some money for business? What you say, I'm just
Speaker 5: curious money, because you know what, my business will be
Speaker 5: called shacking up.
Speaker 3: Ship break this down. Shacking up would.
Speaker 5: Be like a business where I'm trying to get young people.
Speaker 3: I don't care if you're in your if you're you're
Speaker 3: not gonna laugh business. My friends. You could be If
Speaker 3: you're in your twenties, then I'm gonna keep twenty one.
Speaker 5: And if you're in your thirties, I'm gonna keep your
Speaker 5: people in your and I'm gonna show.
Speaker 3: Them it's hot up. This is shacking up right, shacking up.
Speaker 3: This is the direction the country is going. The country
Speaker 3: shacking up. You know, open up a site.
Speaker 5: App and then they all they hit me and then
Speaker 5: I get you all to become roommates.
Speaker 3: You and you respond.
Speaker 5: Everybody listen, so you to the website with shot there
Speaker 5: and I'm gonna put people together in local areas. I'm
Speaker 5: going to help them live together because so they can
Speaker 5: save money.
Speaker 3: It's like Airbnb now now but they living together. So
Speaker 3: this is more like he's trying to combat the housing
Speaker 3: crisis because affordability is out of it's right. But this, sorry,
Speaker 3: it's crazy. You can't even get a couple of words.
Speaker 5: And they.
Speaker 3: That's crazy. Bunks is crazy because they got to save
Speaker 3: money for their fut But that's you saving the money
Speaker 3: because you're finding a bunk bed. No, you gotta get
Speaker 3: them at least they're paying. Come with a lot of
Speaker 3: them from the service. It's crazy. They got hot house
Speaker 3: and questions before the room the roommate.
Speaker 5: The roommate they're saying, is I'm putting people together, shocking up,
Speaker 5: background check on them, real talk.
Speaker 3: You would have to do back like you have to
Speaker 3: do a profile, so you take in commonalities and all
Speaker 3: that men and women.
Speaker 5: You're putting them together real world so that they could
Speaker 5: save money for me. They're saving money where they live.
Speaker 5: You could put a bunk better in this room. Two bedrooms,
Speaker 5: four people. It's called New York City.
Speaker 3: That's a fashion. They got those pods. Positive bedroom, four people.
Speaker 3: How do you how you gonna make money? Though? How
Speaker 3: do you make money? Take a commission?
Speaker 5: They're coming to me for the service, and I'm propratuker.
Speaker 5: It's like a person putting two people together to date.
Speaker 5: They make the money.
Speaker 3: Shack what shocking?
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 4: It's actually honestly, it's a good idea because affordability is
Speaker 4: so high that people have to live with roommates. But
Speaker 4: people who want to live with just a random motherfucker.
Speaker 4: If I have the mimistry, if you know it's.
Speaker 3: Actually connection, you have to question. You got to say,
Speaker 3: like what religion are you?
Speaker 2: Do?
Speaker 3: You eat me? Do you do? It's just like it's
Speaker 3: like we got to clean it up. We got to
Speaker 3: clean it up, but we got to clean it up.
Speaker 3: But I'm just trying to get this thing. Might I
Speaker 3: might changing this? It's good, it's a good I like
Speaker 3: shocking up, shaking shocking up is good marketing one. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I like you get shocked in a fool you talking
Speaker 3: about shock the commercials. Remember the name is clever, right
Speaker 3: and we got to now. I like it. I like it.
Speaker 3: I like the whole point is like you were going
Speaker 3: because you understood where I was going. We got you.
Speaker 5: It's for people to one save money. But it's web
Speaker 5: because then maybe there's a dating.
Speaker 2: That's a reality show.
Speaker 3: It's the reality show the Urban edition.
Speaker 7: No, this is.
Speaker 3: Yeah wow wow the little shocked after just shocked up after.
Speaker 3: This is not the real that the premium the premium package.
Speaker 3: This is like the streaming. You know, yo, we got
Speaker 3: back crab chicks. But you might love you might. You
Speaker 3: know it can go and by floor you can if
Speaker 3: you don't follow like your first floor, you go up
Speaker 3: to the top. Yeah you know. Listen, I'm saying fun
Speaker 3: with it. You have to die with it. Think it's
Speaker 3: I try to give them into that blong. You have
Speaker 3: no so you don't got none that you know that
Speaker 3: the best mom English program. So I got one. I
Speaker 3: got one right, you can stay here, bron shack up
Speaker 3: with us real quick.
Speaker 2: When I first started, like, like you know, people like
Speaker 2: for me to our and things like that, and I
Speaker 2: you know, I wasn't really into that, right, But what
Speaker 2: I did get into was watch this, right. So I
Speaker 2: was fortunate enough to like nice walk have thank you
Speaker 2: yeah too? Yeah yeah to sunny too.
Speaker 3: Oh you don't like mine? Not really really. I'm a
Speaker 3: loyal customer, yea loyal people, but so many people, right,
Speaker 3: So when I when I first there's no flaws. But
Speaker 3: when I first started getting into it, I didn't want
Speaker 3: to I didn't want to lose money, right, like.
Speaker 2: Because you do sometimes you can buy something that depreciates,
Speaker 2: that goes down, and so I would call a whole,
Speaker 2: I would call Warburg and I would call Kevin Harklass.
Speaker 2: I said, I'm not trying to flow, but I'm just
Speaker 2: saying what you want to be live, and we're saying
Speaker 2: you gotta do it. That's your truth, man, Mister Lee
Speaker 2: fucking has to sound like I was spending a certain
Speaker 2: amount checking up.
Speaker 3: But then what happened. So what happens is you're starting
Speaker 3: to get that and then I get lucky. I get lucky, right,
Speaker 3: meaning like I'll spend.
Speaker 2: Something like this amount on this and then this ship
Speaker 2: will go on and then like without knowing without knowing,
Speaker 2: you recommend people like because it was one wise that
Speaker 2: I bought right, I swear to guard it was seventy nine,
Speaker 2: and that shit is two sixty nine right now, So fbjong.
Speaker 3: I do that in the back of my safe, I
Speaker 3: mean in the back like like like this is just
Speaker 3: like do you recommend people like like the same way art?
Speaker 2: Right, you could buy art from somebody, maybe it's ten grand.
Speaker 3: The artist dies and shit, I'm sorry, what bro it happens?
Speaker 2: And then this fucking artist worker fucking a million, two million,
Speaker 2: ten million dollars? Do you recommend like people to invest
Speaker 2: in watches?
Speaker 3: Both of y'all?
Speaker 4: Yeah, the watch thing is interesting. I kind of fell
Speaker 4: off the whole watch thing. I was heaving the watches
Speaker 4: for a little bit. I got turned off because I
Speaker 4: just don't like the elitism of it. Like I went
Speaker 4: to AP, I got I got a AP in Atlanta.
Speaker 3: I tried. I had to wait a year to get it,
Speaker 3: and then they invite there.
Speaker 4: The first watch was cool watch that I wanted, but
Speaker 4: they I wanted another one. So I had a meeting
Speaker 4: with the AP store in New York City and I
Speaker 4: had to make enough appointment. Man, and you know, they
Speaker 4: talked to me for like an hour and a half
Speaker 4: and showed me the things and did the whole thing.
Speaker 4: I'm like, okay, like you know, we're gonna put you
Speaker 4: at the top priority and then you you know, just
Speaker 4: I'm just like, yo, send me the watch man.
Speaker 3: You know what I'm saying, buy it. I'm over it.
Speaker 2: I'm over it, just just from that little thing. Person
Speaker 2: once you would one a p you should stick with them.
Speaker 3: But I did that. But I did that, okay, so
Speaker 3: like you got to wait it out.
Speaker 2: Man.
Speaker 3: I learned how to drink coffee.
Speaker 2: From just going there and just hang it on because
Speaker 2: I was always told.
Speaker 4: I was always tolt and I don't and I don't
Speaker 4: disrespect any jewelers, but I don't trust jewelers.
Speaker 3: I don't trust jewelers. Damn, my bad, my bad. So
Speaker 3: so they was like, you always get all I said.
Speaker 3: I was raised. I always get authorized, deal me to
Speaker 3: roll leg store, you know, ship like that. So I'm
Speaker 3: a go. But like I said, I don't want to
Speaker 3: have to buy a bullshit watch.
Speaker 4: Wait eight months doing that, Get on the waiting list,
Speaker 4: go to this, go to the private event, talk to
Speaker 4: the manager, stay in contact.
Speaker 3: That's too much. Yeah, it's too much. Man, I'm going
Speaker 3: to wait list. It's two years too much. I'm not interested,
Speaker 3: but you might. You gotta be into that's you're into
Speaker 3: the culture into it, man, I want to.
Speaker 2: I want to eat up at that party talking about Yeah,
Speaker 2: I want to eat up Dirs, Little Cavio Crackers.
Speaker 3: I'm into that. I'm into that. I want to. I
Speaker 3: think it's the education in that as well, right, because
Speaker 3: like you, like you said, like you might go to
Speaker 3: the dealer and they might sell you, Hey, you got
Speaker 3: to get this one of those to get that one, right,
Speaker 3: so now you buy that one six months later, you
Speaker 3: know the rule you can't vibe within six months. And
Speaker 3: if you go to another dealer then they find out
Speaker 3: that to each his own, man, yeah, yeah, but the
Speaker 3: process is like, didn't do that with me picking the
Speaker 3: right watch, right, like finding the watches that appreciate over time,
Speaker 3: of the ones that have like specifications that others don't,
Speaker 3: which makes it rare, which is going to increase the value.
Speaker 2: See, that's the reason why when people ask me, right,
Speaker 2: like when I was asking Whole and I was asking
Speaker 2: Mark and I was asking keV, I.
Speaker 3: Was pretty much asking like should I get this.
Speaker 2: Right, But people come to me, they don't ask me that,
Speaker 2: like why you They asked me, yo, is this a
Speaker 2: good investment?
Speaker 3: And I'm sitting back like that's just hard to tell.
Speaker 2: You get like, I don't think you should buy a
Speaker 2: watch as anybody says the art.
Speaker 4: Like by art that you like, because honestly my personal opinion,
Speaker 4: I'm not the biggest watch expert by any means, but
Speaker 4: I feel like that is hype. Richie Milly. I feel
Speaker 4: like Richie Milly just got popular. I don't think it
Speaker 4: got to the point that it got to because of
Speaker 4: the movement and like I think motherfuckers start talking about it,
Speaker 4: it became popular and supplying the man they just played
Speaker 4: that game.
Speaker 2: But it is there is really watched enthusiasts and really
Speaker 2: will argue horology like like like listen, I went to
Speaker 2: Watches and Wonders.
Speaker 3: I felt stupid, like I thought I knew about.
Speaker 2: Watches because I had the complications and I had that
Speaker 2: when you sit down with people like like you know,
Speaker 2: we went out there with washing roon across the team.
Speaker 7: They flew us out so right, that sounds expensive, so
Speaker 7: they again, but they they they showed us the most
Speaker 7: complicated watch in the world.
Speaker 2: Right, So when I sat there, I thought I knew that.
Speaker 2: What is it called horology the study of.
Speaker 3: Something like that? So I thought I knew that, right.
Speaker 3: But when they start.
Speaker 2: Breaking it down, like the most complicated watch in.
Speaker 6: The world did not only that, but like like uh,
Speaker 6: like they're showing you the mechanics, the mechanics of the watch.
Speaker 2: Yeah, like when you when it actually breaks down like so,
Speaker 2: so then they bring me to another room.
Speaker 3: I gotta put it on like a hazmats suits. Yeah,
Speaker 3: I gotta put on one of those.
Speaker 2: So once a year they picked one of their clients
Speaker 2: or like their store owners. So I'm able to bunch
Speaker 2: of store owners like and my homies, and I was
Speaker 2: the coolest dude there. So they picked one person to
Speaker 2: like to like design to watch. Obviously they picked me
Speaker 2: because I'm you know, that's what even even like to
Speaker 2: when you like sit and you know, this is an
Speaker 2: old school company, so even like to like like like.
Speaker 3: Like like like to like play around.
Speaker 2: Obviously they're making I'm making a watch in front of everybody.
Speaker 3: But it's like even a place like these movements, these.
Speaker 2: Ships, and so I know what you're saying with the
Speaker 2: hype and I really understand that, but like and this is,
Speaker 2: this is, this is, this is how I got my
Speaker 2: Richard Mill. If you're interested, I called for around, I
Speaker 2: called for a real right and I said, I said
Speaker 2: you're interested.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, I said for reund.
Speaker 2: You know, I don't ask for much me and we
Speaker 2: we had history, we have sure history, sure, but so
Speaker 2: I don't know if he's thinking about to ask him
Speaker 2: for a beat. And I'm like, listen, I just want
Speaker 2: I want to rich it Bill, but I wanted from
Speaker 2: rich Hard. He's like, all right, cool. Three days past
Speaker 2: they don't call me, and then like the fourth day
Speaker 2: for calls me. He goes, all right, cool, he said,
Speaker 2: you know they wanted to do like the main guy,
Speaker 2: to take care of you like some boom. So anyway,
Speaker 2: let me bring you up my point. When I walked
Speaker 2: through the this was a Richard Many factory. I can't
Speaker 2: say where was at going through it. They maybe taking
Speaker 2: the ship down and there they may be taking ship
Speaker 2: down there. First he told me the film and then
Speaker 2: I filmed and I put it up that's a hit
Speaker 2: world started. He was like wait a minute, no, no, no,
Speaker 2: So anyway, so when I went to see this ship.
Speaker 2: The guy was fixing this other guy's richard. He knew
Speaker 2: at the time that the ship got bumped, Like he
Speaker 2: knew exactly that. I guess the dude was drunk or
Speaker 2: something and he fucked up his richard.
Speaker 3: He must have hit the ship.
Speaker 2: He knew at the exact moment, like like, so that's
Speaker 2: when I started to realize, Oh, this is these complications.
Speaker 3: Ships are real, like you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: So I'm not trying to convince you that, but so
Speaker 2: so again it's true, like don't don't invest in that
Speaker 2: by what you want and if you happen to do it, because.
Speaker 3: All of them don't go off sometimes education but when
Speaker 3: I got my AP that year, AP's.
Speaker 4: Went down, so even Rolexes. Rolex has been down since COVID.
Speaker 4: So it's a lot but the time, but you educated
Speaker 4: us a lot, and even I want to say this
Speaker 4: too before before we wrap, because you know this show
Speaker 4: is about giving your guest their flowers. I want to
Speaker 4: give you guys your flowers because not only are you
Speaker 4: pioneers in the space of podcasts and content to your.
Speaker 3: And you and you and you've been very consistent and
Speaker 3: you have a broad range.
Speaker 4: Of people that you bring on right from politics to
Speaker 4: people like us to musicians, and it's helpful. Your platform
Speaker 4: is very influential. Last time was on here to this day,
Speaker 4: people still here us like y'all, I see y'all, drain
Speaker 4: chance whatever. So I think that you actually paved the
Speaker 4: way for this new generation of podcasts that we're seeing,
Speaker 4: especially the hip hop space where you you you you've
Speaker 4: given people a second chance in life.
Speaker 3: Yes, right, because before it was like damn, I got
Speaker 3: to still try to write a song. I don't.
Speaker 4: I don't want to write a song forty nine years old.
Speaker 4: I don't want to be in I'm saying.
Speaker 6: So it's like you've actually you want to write a
Speaker 6: song for the check. You want to write exactly another
Speaker 6: exactly so you have to do it.
Speaker 4: You actually are very influential, and sometimes in life our
Speaker 4: impact will never be known you You yourself don't even
Speaker 4: know all the people that you've impacted that started the
Speaker 4: show and changed their life because they watched you.
Speaker 3: I like that.
Speaker 4: So I want to give you, guys your flowers, and
Speaker 4: I want to thank you for having us on your
Speaker 4: platform twice, yes, because.
Speaker 2: You don't take me for playing and I want to
Speaker 2: thank y'all man, because you know what, teaching financial literacy literacy,
Speaker 2: it's not easy because it's like it's really necessary. It's
Speaker 2: really like it's really like a person that has to
Speaker 2: go to the gym, right and you know you could
Speaker 2: you can go and get you know, your your your
Speaker 2: blood work and they'll tell you like it's six months.
Speaker 2: You'll be like in a tip top of shape ever,
Speaker 2: but you don't see it that first week. So that
Speaker 2: first week is like you know, like like with result,
Speaker 2: I said, like, has somebody came to me and been
Speaker 2: like you know what I mean? Like when I first
Speaker 2: got my first check, my first check, I'm sure I
Speaker 2: went and got.
Speaker 3: Jewey No, I was like I'm sure, Like I can't remember,
Speaker 3: but I know it. I know you know what I mean,
Speaker 3: like like no one no, hell no, hell nod. But
