- 2:53Speaker 1: say thank you to every guest that has been on
- 2:57Speaker 1: my podcast. I greatly appreciate all all of you for
- 3:00Speaker 1: coming on my podcast. But what a lot of people
- 3:04Speaker 1: don't know is I have ten podcasts, okay ten Now,
- 3:10Speaker 1: based on the pre conversation, the person may think they're
- 3:15Speaker 1: only going to be on one podcast.
- 3:17Speaker 2: No, you might be on all ten.
- 3:19Speaker 1: It just depends on the topic, depending on what we
- 3:23Speaker 1: talk about and depending on how the conversation goes. Now,
- 3:26Speaker 1: some pre conversations I have not posted because they didn't
- 3:30Speaker 1: want me to, but some of them I did because
- 3:33Speaker 1: the information was so profound, And I also have it
- 3:38Speaker 1: recorded visually and I have not I have not posted
- 3:43Speaker 1: some of them as of yet, but I plan to.
- 3:47Speaker 1: Now for those of you that have been guessed on
- 3:50Speaker 1: my podcast, I will be reaching out to you very
- 3:53Speaker 1: soon about the post conversations. But as you know, my
- 3:57Speaker 1: father passed away on on February twelfth of this year,
- 4:02Speaker 1: so I am still in the grieving process. I'm also
- 4:08Speaker 1: just became a travel agent, and I'm also gonna talk
- 4:11Speaker 1: about that on this podcast as well. In the upcoming
- 4:14Speaker 1: episode next week, I will be talking about travel agency
- 4:17Speaker 1: and what I've learned and you know, helping people through
- 4:21Speaker 1: that journey as well. But what I want to say
- 4:26Speaker 1: is when you are going through financial struggles and a
- 4:31Speaker 1: lot of you are okay, not just me, also you
- 4:35Speaker 1: I lost my job January ninth of twenty twenty six.
- 4:40Speaker 1: My father passed away February twelfth of this year, and
- 4:45Speaker 1: we have been dealing with his estate. So we've had
- 4:48Speaker 1: a lot on our shoulders and we're still cleaning out
- 4:52Speaker 1: my father's house. We're still trying to get the house situated.
- 4:57Speaker 1: It's a lot. Okay, That's why y'all have not seen me.
- 5:01Speaker 1: That's why nobody has really hurt for me. I've been
- 5:04Speaker 1: doing some things on social media, but I'm just I'm
- 5:07Speaker 1: stepping away from that for a little bit to focus
- 5:10Speaker 1: on my podcast full time. So starting next week, my
- 5:14Speaker 1: podcast will be on time and post it on the
- 5:17Speaker 1: times that you see now, sometimes we as human beings
- 5:25Speaker 1: got to take a very well needed break from everything, jobs, bills, everything,
- 5:34Speaker 1: and unfortunately a lot of people aren't allowed to do
- 5:38Speaker 1: that because when they lose their jobs, they're told to
- 5:43Speaker 1: go right back to work. They're told to get right
- 5:48Speaker 1: back on the saddle and not having time to just
- 5:54Speaker 1: be now.
- 5:56Speaker 2: I will say this on both ends.
- 5:58Speaker 1: I've had people that are very successful business people, and
- 6:03Speaker 1: as you've heard on.
- 6:04Speaker 2: Some of the episodes, as far as the pre.
- 6:06Speaker 1: Conversations, you have heard how how their starts and how
- 6:12Speaker 1: there begins beginnings were. And that's how I always start
- 6:16Speaker 1: every conversation off, what was their path, what was their
- 6:20Speaker 1: journey that got them to where they are. The next
- 6:23Speaker 1: time I talked to the person, it will be about
- 6:27Speaker 1: their journey as of right now, and how they can
- 6:30Speaker 1: help you through your journeys based on their journeys that
- 6:34Speaker 1: they went through as multimillionaires, multi billionaires, things.
- 6:39Speaker 2: Of that nature.
- 6:41Speaker 1: Everybody has a beginning, everybody. There's not one person that's
- 6:45Speaker 1: in business, including Donald Trump himself that didn't have a beginning. Now,
- 6:52Speaker 1: even though some of these people at like everything came
- 6:56Speaker 1: to them, and some of them did because some of
- 6:58Speaker 1: them are related to the rock the Rockefellers, the Joneses,
- 7:02Speaker 1: so on and so forth, and they did not have
- 7:04Speaker 1: to struggle because their parents and their great grandparents and
- 7:09Speaker 1: their family members did all the work and they just
- 7:12Speaker 1: get to reap the benefits of it because their parents
- 7:16Speaker 1: basically gave them money to invest in the business. It's
- 7:20Speaker 1: just like Hilson. The one thing that parents and Nikki
- 7:24Speaker 1: and her kids and their kids' kids, they never have
- 7:28Speaker 1: to worry about number one money and they do not
- 7:31Speaker 1: have to worry about not having a business to fall
- 7:35Speaker 1: back on. Now, as regular people, what we tend to
- 7:40Speaker 1: do is we start a business, it becomes successful, we
- 7:45Speaker 1: end up selling it, and then we're starting over.
- 7:48Speaker 2: Now, don't get me wrong.
- 7:49Speaker 1: Some people can do it, and as you've heard in
- 7:52Speaker 1: some of the episodes, they were able to do it.
- 7:55Speaker 1: They were able to sell the company, move on to
- 7:57Speaker 1: something else and be good. But you also heard in
- 8:02Speaker 1: these episodes how exhausting the long hours, the putting everything
- 8:08Speaker 1: together and building everything and putting everything in place. Whereas
- 8:13Speaker 1: some people buy companies that are already put together and
- 8:16Speaker 1: you think, oh, it's just gonna be easy because it's
- 8:19Speaker 1: already put together.
- 8:20Speaker 2: No it ain't.
- 8:21Speaker 1: It's not because then you got to find out why
- 8:25Speaker 1: there were so many issues. Then you got to go
- 8:27Speaker 1: in and fix the issues, and then you gotta know,
- 8:30Speaker 1: revamp everything and make things into something new, and then
- 8:34Speaker 1: newly turn it into something and then it debuts is
- 8:38Speaker 1: something completely different than.
- 8:39Speaker 2: What it was.
- 8:41Speaker 1: So even though you're re doing or re whatever for
- 8:45Speaker 1: that prefix r E, it doesn't mean that it's not
- 8:49Speaker 1: going to be something new, because that's the whole old
- 8:52Speaker 1: point is to go from something old to something new
- 8:56Speaker 1: and something different. It's never supposed to be the same.
- 9:00Speaker 1: So a lot of you right now have been out
- 9:03Speaker 1: of work, like myself, put applications in, applying for jobs,
- 9:08Speaker 1: and you have been able to get a job. There
- 9:10Speaker 1: are some people living in their cars, living in RVs,
- 9:14Speaker 1: living in campers, living in you know, mini vans and
- 9:19Speaker 1: going to work, taking showers and Planet Fitness stuff like that.
- 9:23Speaker 1: You have people that are no mads that right now
- 9:27Speaker 1: are doing very well for themselves as.
- 9:30Speaker 2: No mads, and I'm not mad at that.
- 9:33Speaker 1: I'm not mad as someone who's a nomad that is
- 9:37Speaker 1: basically essentially figured out how to make money traveling and
- 9:44Speaker 1: you are now making a lot of money. There are
- 9:47Speaker 1: people that have done Patreon and then they do their
- 9:50Speaker 1: social media and everything they do on the Patreon they're
- 9:55Speaker 1: doing on their free content, which I don't necessarily understand.
- 10:00Speaker 2: Also, you have content.
- 10:01Speaker 1: Creators that are for example, the country Wayne community on
- 10:06Speaker 1: TikTok that are doing these conversations and talking about the
- 10:11Speaker 1: Country Wayne skits. But I have not once heard Country
- 10:15Speaker 1: Wayne say thank you to all of the TikTokers for
- 10:19Speaker 1: their commentary. Some of these people are doing social media
- 10:24Speaker 1: and don't have a podcast. Some of these people are
- 10:29Speaker 1: doing social media and they think, because they're getting gifts,
- 10:35Speaker 1: you still got to go back to your regular ninety
- 10:36Speaker 1: five job. You're still working a regular nine to five job.
- 10:43Speaker 1: There are people that are losing their jobs because they're
- 10:47Speaker 1: on social media. There are people that have businesses that
- 10:51Speaker 1: are losing their jobs because their company finds out they
- 10:55Speaker 1: got a business. You have people that took time off
- 11:02Speaker 1: to go on a cruise. It was approved, and then
- 11:05Speaker 1: they turn around and say, well, no, we changed our mind.
- 11:11Speaker 2: You now can't go on this cruise.
- 11:13Speaker 1: And you'd be like, well, first of all, this cruise
- 11:16Speaker 1: is not refundable.
- 11:17Speaker 2: I can't get my money back. They don't care.
- 11:21Speaker 1: They don't care that you can't get your money back
- 11:25Speaker 1: if you get sick. And let's say, for example, you
- 11:28Speaker 1: have to have surgery, and this has happened to me
- 11:32Speaker 1: where I got really sick, was out for about a
- 11:35Speaker 1: week and then came back and they told me I
- 11:37Speaker 1: didn't have my job. People think that it's easy to just,
- 11:42Speaker 1: you know, leave a job, lose a job, and then
- 11:45Speaker 1: turn around and trying to find no job. No, it
- 11:47Speaker 1: ain't as easy as you might think. Now it even
- 11:50Speaker 1: gets better. I was talking to a woman at Roses
- 11:54Speaker 1: and it's like a little small department store, and went
- 11:59Speaker 1: in there got some stuff because I have a cruise
- 12:02Speaker 1: coming up in October and next week I'm gonna talk
- 12:05Speaker 1: about all of that. But I had to get some
- 12:09Speaker 1: dresses because I did not know how the weather was
- 12:11Speaker 1: going to be around October, around Halloween.
- 12:14Speaker 2: That's where I'm going. Now.
- 12:16Speaker 1: I want people to understand that this woman told me
- 12:21Speaker 1: she retired and now she's back at work because they
- 12:25Speaker 1: raised her rent.
- 12:27Speaker 2: And this woman got to.
- 12:28Speaker 1: Be in her seventies and she said when she retired,
- 12:34Speaker 1: she never thought in a million years she would have
- 12:36Speaker 1: to go back to work, but now she's back at work.
- 12:41Speaker 2: Then we talked.
- 12:42Speaker 1: About how your income, like when you retire, you're being taxed.
- 12:52Speaker 2: So now you have to decide.
- 12:55Speaker 1: Get do you want to get Social Security or do
- 12:59Speaker 1: you want your retire retirement to be taxed. My father's
- 13:02Speaker 1: retirement was being taxed.
- 13:04Speaker 2: It still is.
- 13:06Speaker 1: So if you make over a certain amount, you're happening
- 13:10Speaker 1: to pay for that retirement.
- 13:12Speaker 2: Now.
- 13:12Speaker 1: The only time you don't pay taxes is if you
- 13:17Speaker 1: let them know I'm not working right now, I don't
- 13:22Speaker 1: get SSI as of right now, then they're not gonna
- 13:25Speaker 1: tax it. But if you get unemployment, they're gonna tax
- 13:30Speaker 1: it now. Also, what I learned is that with Social Security,
- 13:36Speaker 1: as far as your parents are concerned, if your child
- 13:39Speaker 1: is over the age of seventeen and or they're not disabled,
- 13:47Speaker 1: or they're not where I forgot the other thing they said.
- 13:54Speaker 1: But all in all, you can't get your parents so security.
- 14:00Speaker 1: You cannot get there so scared, can't even touch it.
- 14:03Speaker 1: So if something happens to my mother, I can't get
- 14:05Speaker 1: her so scared. It used to didn't be that way.
- 14:10Speaker 1: It used to didn't be that you couldn't get there
- 14:13Speaker 1: so secured. So if you were their descendants, you were
- 14:17Speaker 1: allowed to get there, you know, so scared.
- 14:20Speaker 2: Now you can't.
- 14:22Speaker 1: So when I set up the VA for my mother
- 14:26Speaker 1: to get her VA, I went ahead on and did
- 14:29Speaker 1: something where basically essentially that if anything happens to her,
- 14:37Speaker 1: that the retirement automatically comes to me and my sister.
- 14:42Speaker 1: They'll contact es. We gotta fill out some forms and
- 14:44Speaker 1: we get my father's retirement, but he's so security in
- 14:48Speaker 1: hers we don't get it. Now, can my son get
- 14:52Speaker 1: it because he's a disabled probably, So you have to
- 14:57Speaker 1: put things in Please. Now, as far as the house
- 15:01Speaker 1: is concerned, if the house is under the person that
- 15:06Speaker 1: passed away, you now got to figure out to do
- 15:10Speaker 1: something where it either automatically goes to the next of
- 15:12Speaker 1: ken or you have to do in a state. Now,
- 15:15Speaker 1: for those of you that really don't know how in
- 15:18Speaker 1: the state works, I'm gonna talk about this today. If
- 15:22Speaker 1: you do in a state, every single bill that that
- 15:27Speaker 1: person has, you are now responsible for. So if that
- 15:31Speaker 1: person does not make enough money to do in a state,
- 15:35Speaker 1: don't do one. If they have no property, don't do one.
- 15:40Speaker 1: There is no point of you doing in a state
- 15:44Speaker 1: if that person has no property. If they have property
- 15:50Speaker 1: and you have a willing testament saying it automatically goes
- 15:54Speaker 1: to your child, then it goes to your child. You
- 15:58Speaker 1: don't have to do in a state. Why because it
- 16:01Speaker 1: automatically gets passed down. So if you make sure all
- 16:05Speaker 1: the bank accounts, everything goes to the next of ken
- 16:09Speaker 1: the nests who it goes to. But a lot of
- 16:12Speaker 1: people don't even have time to do that because they
- 16:15Speaker 1: passed away before they get a chance to do that.
- 16:17Speaker 1: Like my dad didn't get a chance to because he
- 16:19Speaker 1: passed away abruptly. Now, when it comes down to an estate,
- 16:26Speaker 1: like I said, when we went to go close my
- 16:31Speaker 1: dad's accounts, as far as the bank, we found out
- 16:36Speaker 1: that basically essentially he still owes money to the bank
- 16:42Speaker 1: and the bank was not going to close that account
- 16:45Speaker 1: until they got their money.
- 16:46Speaker 2: We got what was left.
- 16:49Speaker 1: Now, as far as creditors, when you do the estate,
- 16:54Speaker 1: they have thirty days to basically respond. So what happens
- 16:59Speaker 1: is if they owe any money, they gonna take whatever first.
- 17:05Speaker 1: So for example, if we were to sell the secondary
- 17:08Speaker 1: house that we have and we split it whatever my
- 17:13Speaker 1: father owes, that money gets paid out before we even
- 17:16Speaker 1: get a dime of it. And in the state of
- 17:19Speaker 1: North Carolina, you have to have in a state or
- 17:23Speaker 1: a real estate lawyer in order to change the deed,
- 17:27Speaker 1: which I think is crazy, but you have to have one.
- 17:30Speaker 1: So it's a lot. Now as far as social Security,
- 17:36Speaker 1: when a lot of you retire. Oh, we're gonna get
- 17:38Speaker 1: into that on this channel, because a lot of y'all
- 17:41Speaker 1: don't know when you retire, you actually get paid less money.
- 17:46Speaker 1: You only get paid whatever you put into your Social Security,
- 17:50Speaker 1: which is why a lot of y'all can't retire, because
- 17:52Speaker 1: a lot of y'all didn't stay at jobs for twenty
- 17:54Speaker 1: thirty years. So you can't retire. You're not gonna be
- 17:57Speaker 1: able to when it comes to your for one ks.
- 18:03Speaker 1: You know, if you put money in it and you
- 18:05Speaker 1: left it and you didn't touch it, it grows interest.
- 18:10Speaker 2: It does.
- 18:11Speaker 1: But the problem is for some of y'all that ain't.
- 18:15Speaker 1: She did so it coulda should have, would have don't
- 18:19Speaker 1: matter when now it's already happening. What you could have,
- 18:25Speaker 1: should have, would have done differently don't matter.
- 18:27Speaker 2: You didn't.
- 18:28Speaker 1: So you think, Okay, I'm gonna retire, I'm gonna travel,
- 18:34Speaker 1: I'm gonna see the world. You'll be amazed how many
- 18:37Speaker 1: older people right now are on social media now becoming
- 18:41Speaker 1: travel agents. How many people are building businesses and brands
- 18:46Speaker 1: so they don't have to work no more. You are
- 18:48Speaker 1: never supposed to work past forty, But that's.
- 18:51Speaker 2: What they told you.
- 18:53Speaker 1: At the end of the day, they say, Oh, the
- 18:56Speaker 1: economy is doing well and people got jobs. Do you
- 19:00Speaker 1: know how many people a out of work right now
- 19:02Speaker 1: and how they're making money is through a business. How
- 19:05Speaker 1: many people right now staying with their family members because
- 19:08Speaker 1: they can't move out right now? How many people right
- 19:13Speaker 1: now lost a family member and they had no insurance
- 19:16Speaker 1: and guess what they now.
- 19:17Speaker 2: Gotta pay for everything out of pocket. Yeah, that part.
- 19:20Speaker 1: That's why so many people are cremated because they can't
- 19:24Speaker 1: afford to give them a burial, and it's cheaper to
- 19:27Speaker 1: get the person cremated than it is to basically essentially
- 19:32Speaker 1: have a funeral. So it is said. So all I'm
- 19:40Speaker 1: saying to y'all is it's time that we start being honest.
- 19:44Speaker 1: At this point, this new generation is not gonna be
- 19:47Speaker 1: able to retire. This new generation is not gonna have
- 19:51Speaker 1: with the Baby Boomers and what Gen X and some millennials.
- 19:55Speaker 2: Got to have.
- 19:56Speaker 1: At the end of the day, I feel bad for
- 19:58Speaker 1: this new generation because it's sad that it's not about
- 20:02Speaker 1: the best interests of everybody. It's about the best interests
- 20:07Speaker 1: of the rich and wealthy. The rich and wealthy have
- 20:10Speaker 1: enough money to pay off a deficit, the fact that
- 20:14Speaker 1: you're still putting bills on someone and that person is
- 20:19Speaker 1: gone on their families.
- 20:21Speaker 2: The fact that medical.
- 20:23Speaker 1: Bills that were twenty years they have not been paid.
- 20:28Speaker 1: You're putting back on somebody's credit. Obama and Biden made
- 20:32Speaker 1: it so you couldn't put medical bills on insurance. Now
- 20:36Speaker 1: they are as far as your credit. Now they are
- 20:39Speaker 1: student loans. You're finding out a lot of these student
- 20:42Speaker 1: loans as far as a lot of these schools have
- 20:44Speaker 1: been corrupt, and a lot of people are fighting to
- 20:47Speaker 1: get this stuff off of their credit. I just got
- 20:50Speaker 1: twenty two thousand off of mine. It ain't shown up yet,
- 20:53Speaker 1: but that's what's supposed to come off.
- 20:55Speaker 2: So what I'm saying to you is.
- 20:59Speaker 1: If you don't have something in writing stating that you're
- 21:01Speaker 1: paying your family is not responsible for your debt, then
- 21:06Speaker 1: they cannot charge you or charge you. For example, I
- 21:09Speaker 1: tried to get the was it the gas bill in
- 21:14Speaker 1: my name. They try to charge me for one of
- 21:16Speaker 1: my dad's bills, and I said, I ain't lived.
- 21:18Speaker 2: Here since twenty twenty two.
- 21:20Speaker 1: I had too literally send evidence that I did not
- 21:24Speaker 1: live in the house during the time for them to
- 21:27Speaker 1: take it off because they find that you lived in
- 21:30Speaker 1: a house at any time, they're gonna try to charge
- 21:32Speaker 1: you with the bills that don't belong to you. That's
- 21:36Speaker 1: just what they're gonna do. It's it's sad, but that
- 21:39Speaker 1: is what they will do. All I'm saying to you
- 21:44Speaker 1: is that the older you get, the easier it should be.
- 21:49Speaker 2: But it's not. It's harder.
- 21:53Speaker 1: And for all these people that's working jobs, how in
- 21:56Speaker 1: the world can they advance if the other person can't retire,
- 22:03Speaker 1: If that person cannot retire, if that person cannot be
- 22:08Speaker 1: able to make more money, why are they going to
- 22:10Speaker 1: stay at a job for that would be stupid. So again,
- 22:16Speaker 1: is it easy going through these journeys. No. So I'm
- 22:26Speaker 1: just saying no one deserves to be treated in this manner.
- 22:32Speaker 1: But this is what we're dealing with. And like I said,
- 22:35Speaker 1: when you look past the racism, the discrimination, the diversity,
- 22:39Speaker 1: and the division, this is what you're going to see
- 22:42Speaker 1: the truth. You've been working your whole entire life just
- 22:48Speaker 1: to still be broke. You can't pay off your house
- 22:55Speaker 1: because it's for thirty years unless you pay it off
- 22:57Speaker 1: in all cash.
- 22:59Speaker 2: All as.
- 23:03Speaker 1: A lot of people spend money and they're using credit
- 23:08Speaker 1: cards not paying it back.
- 23:09Speaker 2: Now you got debt. Now your family unfortunately.
- 23:12Speaker 1: Got to live with that debt because it automatically goes
- 23:15Speaker 1: to the spouse. Or I asked somebody, I said, what
- 23:19Speaker 1: if you know my son has autism, we'll go to
- 23:22Speaker 1: your next skin can't give it to them? How are
- 23:24Speaker 1: you gonna get something to them? And they're not related
- 23:27Speaker 1: to me in that way, but that's what they do.
- 23:30Speaker 1: So there's a lot of stuff that ain't right, and
- 23:33Speaker 1: no capacity is it right. But that's the reason I've
- 23:37Speaker 1: been gone for so long, because I've been really evaluating
- 23:42Speaker 1: so many different things based on my father's death that
- 23:47Speaker 1: I really want to share with y'all because I really
- 23:50Speaker 1: want to prepare people to have loved ones that are
- 23:55Speaker 1: leaving this world. What you're gonna be dealing with, you know,
- 23:59Speaker 1: it's not even including the funeral, it's not even including
- 24:03Speaker 1: the after the funeral stuff like that.
- 24:08Speaker 2: It's a lot and I want to talk about those things.
- 24:12Speaker 1: But I also want to talk about the people that's
- 24:14Speaker 1: not working, the people that don't have health care, the
- 24:18Speaker 1: people that basically essentially are really really struggling right now.
- 24:22Speaker 1: So financial recovery is important because financial recovery determines a
- 24:27Speaker 1: roof over your head, a card to drive, your relationships,
- 24:31Speaker 1: your health and wellness, your emotional your stress levels, your trauma.
- 24:35Speaker 2: All of that.
- 24:36Speaker 1: Centers around money. You don't have money, you will not survive.
- 24:42Speaker 2: You just won't. You won't make it.
- 24:46Speaker 1: And building a business, yes, don't get me wrong, if
- 24:50Speaker 1: it becomes successful, is a good thing. But then you
- 24:53Speaker 1: also got to take care of your employees because without them,
- 24:57Speaker 1: there's no you.
- 24:58Speaker 2: You're nothing without them.
- 25:00Speaker 1: So if you don't take care of your employees and
- 25:02Speaker 1: make sure they're good and making sure they can survive,
- 25:06Speaker 1: then pretty much none of it matters. If people don't
- 25:09Speaker 1: have enough money to go shopping, if people don't have
- 25:12Speaker 1: enough money to do certain things, then America's screwed.
- 25:16Speaker 2: But you can't be.
- 25:16Speaker 1: Mad because people spending their money on cruises. You can't
- 25:20Speaker 1: be mad because people are spending their money on vacations.
- 25:24Speaker 1: You can't be mad that people are now don't even
- 25:27Speaker 1: care about these jobs. The more these these people that
- 25:31Speaker 1: basically essentially are not putting up with the way their
- 25:33Speaker 1: supervisors are treating them, you can't.
- 25:35Speaker 2: Be mad about that. You cannot be mad because these
- 25:37Speaker 2: jobs don't wanna work. These people don't wanna work.
- 25:40Speaker 1: McDonald's are fast food because I'm only getting paid step
- 25:43Speaker 1: to twenty five. My rent is thirteen hundred dollars a month.
- 25:47Speaker 1: Now you're trying to make it where when it go
- 25:49Speaker 1: to college, it ain't even worth it because if you
- 25:51Speaker 1: graduate college, they gonna tell you don't have the experience.
- 25:55Speaker 1: And depending on where you live, is college really gonna
- 25:58Speaker 1: be worth it. No, you'd have to leave and go
- 26:01Speaker 1: to another city that's gonna be a bigger city. Then
- 26:04Speaker 1: you're gonna have a overcrowding of cities because these are
- 26:07Speaker 1: the only places you can go where you can make
- 26:09Speaker 1: some type of money. For example, I live in North Carolina.
- 26:13Speaker 1: The most I make is a medical biller will be
- 26:15Speaker 1: probably about thirteen to fifteen dollars an hour, maybe even eighteen.
- 26:20Speaker 1: When I was in Florida, I was making twenty four
- 26:21Speaker 1: dollars an hour working from home. Now it's gonna be
- 26:25Speaker 1: where you're gonna have staffing companies that are gonna be
- 26:29Speaker 1: staffing these jobs, and you won't even be working for
- 26:33Speaker 1: the companies themselves. Do you know how many staffing companies
- 26:37Speaker 1: have called me? How many staffing jobs I work from
- 26:40Speaker 1: twenty sixteen all the way to twenty twenty six and.
- 26:44Speaker 2: That's ten years. Ten years.
- 26:49Speaker 1: So a lot of these jobs if you work staffing jobs,
- 26:52Speaker 1: and i'm'a talk about this as well. The the things
- 26:56Speaker 1: that y'all don't know about staffing jobs. For starters, you
- 27:00Speaker 1: don't get PCO. Some of them you do, not very many.
- 27:04Speaker 1: You don't get sick leave, you don't get holiday pay,
- 27:09Speaker 1: you don't get paid. So now you have to make
- 27:12Speaker 1: up hours. Some of them will let you make the
- 27:15Speaker 1: hours up, some of them won't. It's gonna be really
- 27:18Speaker 1: hard for you to go on vacation because you don't
- 27:21Speaker 1: have PCO time. Now, and then the crazy part, you
- 27:25Speaker 1: gotta have people on vacation working while they're on vacation.
- 27:28Speaker 1: Then what's the what's the point of going on vacation.
- 27:30Speaker 1: You're working while you're on vacation, Cause if you got
- 27:34Speaker 1: excursions to do, you can't even do the excursions because
- 27:37Speaker 1: you have to work. You can't even enjoy yourself because
- 27:43Speaker 1: you're working while you're on vacation.
- 27:45Speaker 2: Now, here's the thing. It is one thing.
- 27:49Speaker 1: If you're now most people that own their own businesses
- 27:52Speaker 1: that are coaches will say I'm on vacation and that
- 27:57Speaker 1: unless it's an emergency, my calendar is pretty much full. Now,
- 28:03Speaker 1: if I'm doing a speaking event, can I still see
- 28:07Speaker 1: my clients?
- 28:08Speaker 2: Yeah?
- 28:08Speaker 1: Why because it's before the event, so I can still
- 28:13Speaker 1: see my clients. But if I'm on vacation, I'm on vacation.
- 28:21Speaker 1: But that doesn't mean that there's not an emergency that
- 28:23Speaker 1: I won't talk to my clients. But if you know
- 28:27Speaker 1: that you have six clients, then like I said, what
- 28:33Speaker 1: I would do is while I'm on vacation, I will
- 28:37Speaker 1: go ahead and see them people all the week before
- 28:41Speaker 1: and then if I'm on vacation and less emergency, then
- 28:44Speaker 1: I'll see them.
- 28:45Speaker 2: Other than that, I won't.
- 28:47Speaker 1: There's a lot of different topics that I'm gonna talk
- 28:49Speaker 1: about on this platform that's probably gonna be eye opening,
- 28:54Speaker 1: but I want to introduce you to what healing your
- 28:56Speaker 1: recovery is when it comes to financial because financial recovery
- 29:00Speaker 1: is not something that's talked about. It's not you're not
- 29:04Speaker 1: talked about the things that are hindering you and how
- 29:09Speaker 1: you're really supposed to recover from financial healing and recovery,
- 29:13Speaker 1: And as someone that's actually doing it, as we speak.
- 29:16Speaker 1: I'm going to talk about that on this platform. I'm
- 29:19Speaker 1: really looking forward to doing this and for all the
- 29:22Speaker 1: guests that's coming on here, that's what my that's what
- 29:27Speaker 1: healing and recovery financially means. How to not only not
- 29:31Speaker 1: work for someone else, but to be able to build
- 29:33Speaker 1: a business and a brand, to have financial freedom, to
- 29:37Speaker 1: be able to do the things you want to do
- 29:40Speaker 1: and have a work life balance, to have a family,
- 29:43Speaker 1: to be able to settle down, and to be able
- 29:45Speaker 1: to spend more time with your children. So that being said,
- 29:48Speaker 1: I just wanted to give y'all an overview of what
- 29:51Speaker 1: these next coming seasons are going to be like. And
- 29:54Speaker 1: until then, I appreciate y'all. I thank y'all for all
- 29:58Speaker 1: the support. I appreciate everybody who has still blocked with
- 30:03Speaker 1: me through this, especially through the medical conditions that I
- 30:06Speaker 1: was going through and asked for that. I am doing
- 30:09Speaker 1: a lot better. I am, I'm getting I'm getting much
- 30:12Speaker 1: much better. So I'm really excited about what I'll be
- 30:16Speaker 1: talking about on all ten of my podcasts, and for
- 30:19Speaker 1: those of you that have done the pre conversations, I
- 30:22Speaker 1: will be reaching out very soon. Matter of fact, this
- 30:26Speaker 1: week coming because I've posted everybody's pre conversations and once
- 30:32Speaker 1: they air, they can listen to it, and then, like
- 30:36Speaker 1: I said, the conversations will be from where they left off. So,
- 30:41Speaker 1: like I said, I'm looking forward to doing the post
- 30:43Speaker 1: conversations with all the people that I've done the pre
- 30:46Speaker 1: conversations with, and I hope you guys are enjoying those conversations,
- 30:50Speaker 1: and I can't wait to do the new conversation. So
- 30:55Speaker 1: with that being said, I appreciate you guys, and without you, guys.
- 30:58Speaker 2: There is no me. I'll be nothing without y'all. And
- 31:01Speaker 2: I am eternally grateful.
- 31:03Speaker 1: And I'm hoping from each conversation that I have that
- 31:08Speaker 1: all of you that are listeners will be able to
- 31:11Speaker 1: learn from these conversations and.
- 31:15Speaker 2: Really take the marketing and.
- 31:18Speaker 1: The social media and the seos and everything that each
- 31:24Speaker 1: person brings on this channel and any other channel that
- 31:29Speaker 1: I do for healing and recovery and addiction and mental
- 31:32Speaker 1: health and health and wellness, that you guys learn something
- 31:37Speaker 1: from it and find what works for you. We're just
- 31:40Speaker 1: giving you the basic tools. Whether you take the tools
- 31:44Speaker 1: or not, it's up to you. Whatever works for you
- 31:47Speaker 1: works for you. I'm just giving you many options of
- 31:50Speaker 1: what to look at when it comes to building a business,
- 31:53Speaker 1: building a brand.
- 31:54Speaker 2: The ups and downs are building a brand.
- 31:56Speaker 1: The ups and downs are working really nine to five jobs,
- 32:00Speaker 1: but finding an equal millium medium.
- 32:02Speaker 2: That works for everybody.
- 32:04Speaker 1: So again, some people are meant to work rather than
- 32:06Speaker 1: nine to five jobs. Some people are meant to build,
- 32:09Speaker 1: some people are meant to lead. But either way it go,
- 32:13Speaker 1: you're always gonna have the haves and have nots always.
- 32:17Speaker 1: But if you're sick and tired of working for other
- 32:20Speaker 1: people and you want something more, then this channel's gonna
- 32:25Speaker 1: help you do that. For those of you that are
- 32:28Speaker 1: working regular jobs, how to work on regular job and
- 32:31Speaker 1: be respected and knowing what you're gonna be getting into,
- 32:34Speaker 1: that's what this channel is for. But again, I just
- 32:38Speaker 1: want you to do what makes you happy.
- 32:40Speaker 2: I want you to.
- 32:41Speaker 1: Be able to make money and being able to know
- 32:46Speaker 1: that you're gonna be able that there is a light
- 32:48Speaker 1: at the end of the tunnel. Is a tunnel gonna
- 32:51Speaker 1: be easy, No, of course not. But at the end
- 32:54Speaker 1: of the day, as someone that's going through it, as
- 32:57Speaker 1: someone that's been down the road that's building a business
- 33:00Speaker 1: and a brand, as someone who doesn't want to work
- 33:03Speaker 1: for anybody anymore as someone that want to help people
- 33:07Speaker 1: and want to motivate people, and to seeing people successful
- 33:12Speaker 1: based on their talents, based on their mental capacity. That's important,
- 33:20Speaker 1: very important. So I just wanted to come on here
- 33:23Speaker 1: and tell y'all that I will be back next week
- 33:26Speaker 1: full time, and I'm looking forward to all of the
- 33:29Speaker 1: topics that I'll be discussing on this podcast. And I
- 33:32Speaker 1: hope that the guests that I would be having coming
- 33:35Speaker 1: back and then the guests that will be coming on
- 33:38Speaker 1: in the future. I hope each person takes something from
- 33:43Speaker 1: those conversations and apply it in your own life as
- 33:47Speaker 1: far as you're healing and recovery in all aspects, regardless
- 33:51Speaker 1: of what aspect that it is, because healing and recovery
- 33:55Speaker 1: doesn't stop because there may not be a bruise there,
- 34:00Speaker 1: or because you get back on your feet. Because at
- 34:01Speaker 1: any time you can hit rock bottom more than one time.
- 34:06Speaker 2: You can.
- 34:07Speaker 1: That stuff can be stripped away from you many different times.
- 34:11Speaker 1: But now it's about maintaining what you have, maintaining everything
- 34:16Speaker 1: that you built, maintaining your healing and recovery, your health
- 34:19Speaker 1: and wellness. It's about maintaining that and if you don't
- 34:23Speaker 1: know how to maintain it, then it doesn't matter.
- 34:25Speaker 2: None of it matters.
- 34:26Speaker 1: If the bruise comes back, the cancer spreads, it doesn't matter.
- 34:32Speaker 1: So it's about preventing permanent solutions to help these problems,
- 34:37Speaker 1: and without that, that's it.
- 34:39Speaker 2: Nothing works.
- 34:40Speaker 1: So that being said, I just wanna say thank y'all
- 34:42Speaker 1: for joining me for this episode. I appreciate it. I'm
- 34:45Speaker 1: your host, Gottish Ausha, Maria, i'maa. May peace be with
- 34:48Speaker 1: all of you, May you continue to throve and be
- 34:50Speaker 1: the best versions of yourselves. And I really greatly appreciate
- 34:54Speaker 1: the support, and I look forward to the up and
- 34:56Speaker 1: coming guest and a new stuff on this channel. And
- 34:58Speaker 1: until then, I guess
