Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: So here's the thing, and this goes back to you know,
- 0:03Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago made a controversial statement about
- 0:07Speaker 1: the jay Z thing and it was like five hundred
- 0:09Speaker 1: thousand dollars of jay Z and then you know, everybody
- 0:11Speaker 1: was up in arms and Ish, it'sh don't don't come
- 0:15Speaker 1: from you, Ish, So it's all love, keep life, community.
- 0:18Speaker 1: But absolutely, you know, the whole thing with the jay
- 0:21Speaker 1: Z and the five hundred dollars and all that, it's
- 0:23Speaker 1: a bigger issue than that because that's the hypothetical situation.
- 0:26Speaker 1: It's not it's never really going to happen, right, But
- 0:29Speaker 1: the issue is that if you have no value to
- 0:32Speaker 1: bring to somebody, of course you should take the money.
- 0:34Speaker 1: Why would you take a dinner with somebody that you're
- 0:36Speaker 1: not gonna able to benefit though, But the whole point
- 0:40Speaker 1: in life is that you shouldn't work every single day
- 0:44Speaker 1: to make yourself as valuable as possible, because when you
- 0:48Speaker 1: meet somebody that can change your life, it's important for
- 0:52Speaker 1: you to be in a position to actually take advantage
- 0:56Speaker 1: of that. Right. So it's like, for me, this dumb
- 0:59Speaker 1: people's thing is a is a real full service moment
- 1:02Speaker 1: because you know, I met Don peoples fifteen years ago
- 1:05Speaker 1: and I read his book and he was coming to
- 1:08Speaker 1: New York and he was doing something and at the time,
- 1:10Speaker 1: I was just starting out as a financial advisor. I
- 1:12Speaker 1: was probably like twenty something years old. And I went,
- 1:15Speaker 1: I was in Manhattan. I went and he spoke and
- 1:17Speaker 1: I waited afterwards, and I introduced myself to him. I
- 1:20Speaker 1: told him, you know, I read your book, Da Da Da.
- 1:23Speaker 1: I'm a big fan of everything that you have. And
- 1:24Speaker 1: he was like, you know, just keep working, and that's
- 1:28Speaker 1: what I did. And then the next time that we
- 1:30Speaker 1: meet him, now it's a whole different situation because now
- 1:33Speaker 1: we actually have real value to bring to the situation.
- 1:36Speaker 1: So now we're prepared to take advantage of it. And
- 1:39Speaker 1: I always tell people it's like, at some point in time,
- 1:41Speaker 1: you're going to meet somebody that can change your life.
- 1:44Speaker 2: Yep.
- 1:45Speaker 1: The thing about it is most of the time you're
- 1:47Speaker 1: not ready. So when you when you meet jay Z,
- 1:51Speaker 1: when you meet Don Peebles, what you're going to do
- 1:54Speaker 1: is ask for a picture.
- 1:56Speaker 3: You ask for a picture mistake.
- 1:59Speaker 1: And it's like, because at that moment, that's the only
- 2:03Speaker 1: thing that you can really conjure in your brain, right,
- 2:06Speaker 1: I guarantee you, at some point in time, you're going
- 2:08Speaker 1: to meet somebody that can change your life. If you're
- 2:11Speaker 1: not ready, then that's on you because you haven't put
- 2:14Speaker 1: yourself in a position to add value. So from the
- 2:18Speaker 1: time that I met Don Peebles to the next time
- 2:20Speaker 1: that I met on fifteen years later, I worked every
- 2:22Speaker 1: single day for fifteen years. I didn't know exactly what
- 2:25Speaker 1: I was going to do, but I knew at some
- 2:26Speaker 1: point I was going to be in a position to
- 2:28Speaker 1: add value. And the next time I met him, it
- 2:31Speaker 1: was a completely different conversation because now I'm not just
- 2:35Speaker 1: asking for a picture. I'm not just saying, hey, I
- 2:38Speaker 1: like your book. Now we have a whole media impire
- 2:41Speaker 1: that is behind us, So now he sees the value.
- 2:44Speaker 1: Now the conversation is how can we work together? How
- 2:47Speaker 1: can we collaborate right? That's not done by accident. So this,
- 2:51Speaker 1: like I said, this goes back to this dinner situation.
- 2:53Speaker 1: Of course, the situation that we're in right now in
- 2:56Speaker 1: life is a lot different than most, but that's because
- 2:58Speaker 1: we worked the whole life to get here. So we
- 3:01Speaker 1: work the whole life, so now we have enough value
- 3:04Speaker 1: add that anybody that we sit down with is going
- 3:06Speaker 1: to be a productive conversation. So just keep that in
- 3:09Speaker 1: mind because it's like relationships ultimately are more valuable than money.
- 3:14Speaker 1: And this goes back to even the Michael roberts If
- 3:18Speaker 1: you don't know who Michael Robertson Senior is, you should
- 3:20Speaker 1: look them up. Guy's worth over probably five hundred million,
- 3:24Speaker 1: close to a billion dollars, who's counting black billionaire. So
- 3:28Speaker 1: took three companies public Telecommunications. It took three companies public.
- 3:35Speaker 1: But it's like, you know, these are the these are
- 3:38Speaker 1: the type of people that you want to network with,
- 3:40Speaker 1: right But the only way you're going to be able
- 3:42Speaker 1: to network with them is if you're just as valuable
- 3:44Speaker 1: as they are. That's the part that nobody tells you.
- 3:47Speaker 1: Networking is not just getting a room and just being
- 3:50Speaker 1: a room. Networking is getting a room, but you have
- 3:52Speaker 1: to add value to be in a room. Getting the
- 3:55Speaker 1: room is only half the battle. Then you're just be
- 3:57Speaker 1: in a room. It's a lot of people just in
- 3:58Speaker 1: the room, and people are saying why you here. But
- 4:00Speaker 1: it's like, now, if you have enough value to bring,
- 4:03Speaker 1: then you understand that your your resources, your network is
- 4:07Speaker 1: much more valuable than money and The last thing I
- 4:09Speaker 1: say about this is shot out that Derek Falcon he
- 4:11Speaker 1: has said something a while ago, and he was like,
- 4:14Speaker 1: you know, you talked about middle class. I'm talking about
- 4:16Speaker 1: poor people. When people say, okay, I'm gonna fall off people,
- 4:20Speaker 1: you think about falling off, right, what's your first thought
- 4:23Speaker 1: if you lose everything today, what's your first thought. I'm
- 4:25Speaker 1: gonna hustle. I'm gonna get it back. I'm gonna go
- 4:27Speaker 1: back on the ground, he said, No, rich people. How
- 4:30Speaker 1: I'm thinking it, Like, my first thought is I'm gonna
- 4:32Speaker 1: call my friends. We'll call my friends and it's like
- 4:35Speaker 1: they're gonna help me. Now, that's the whole point of
- 4:38Speaker 1: cultivating relationships, right, And I thought about it. I'm like, damn,
- 4:41Speaker 1: you're right, You really right. That's what I'm gonna do,
- 4:43Speaker 1: Like God forbid, if everything falls apart today, I feel
- 4:46Speaker 1: like I have enough resources where I'm gonna call them people.
- 4:49Speaker 1: I'm not even gonna call them to ask them. It's
- 4:50Speaker 1: not about asking them for money, but it's to ask.
- 4:52Speaker 1: It's gonna yo, I need this to I need to
- 4:54Speaker 1: get put back in position.
- 4:56Speaker 3: The real was gonna send it right away too.
- 4:58Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's like, no, I'm not even gonna ask
- 5:00Speaker 1: im gonna ask to get put back in position. You
- 5:01Speaker 1: need this, I need you to introduce me to this person.
- 5:03Speaker 1: I need this. I need to be I need to
- 5:04Speaker 1: be on your show. I need to do this, I
- 5:06Speaker 1: need to do that, like and they're probably going to
- 5:09Speaker 1: say yeah, because I've helped them the way the way,
- 5:12Speaker 1: So it's like that's the difference. It's like who do
- 5:16Speaker 1: you have to call on right that shit network. That's
- 5:18Speaker 1: why I say relationship is worth more than money, because
- 5:21Speaker 1: ultimately money goes up, it goes down. It's something that
- 5:25Speaker 1: you know is a byproduct of what you've built. But
- 5:28Speaker 1: relationships are here forever and you really can't and put
- 5:31Speaker 1: a value on that. You can't put a value on
- 5:34Speaker 1: having done peoples on speed Down, You really can't, Like
- 5:37Speaker 1: what's the price what's the price point that it is
- 5:40Speaker 1: to have a person relationship with Robert Smith? Is it
- 5:42Speaker 1: worth one million? Is it worth ten million? Is I
- 5:44Speaker 1: don't like you know what I'm saying, like, how do
- 5:45Speaker 1: you how do you even measure that qualify because you
- 5:47Speaker 1: don't know how much money can actually come from that,
- 5:50Speaker 1: Like how much money can come from Steve Harvey to
- 5:53Speaker 1: have a relationship with him, right, Like, these are things
- 5:55Speaker 1: that you have to understand. So all of that to say,
- 6:00Speaker 1: Don Peebles a gentleman and a scholar, But I just
- 6:04Speaker 1: really want to hammer that in because it's like we
- 6:07Speaker 1: can talk about our takeaways, but I guarantee you you're
- 6:10Speaker 1: going to meet somebody that's gonna be able to change
- 6:12Speaker 1: your life. I guarantee you. If you live in LA,
- 6:14Speaker 1: you're gonna run across somebody. Just wait. On every day
- 6:18Speaker 1: it's waiting to Beverly Center, Just go.
- 6:21Speaker 2: To lunch on sunset, just people the sunset.
- 6:23Speaker 1: You're gonna run the Stevie one like it's gonna happen
- 6:26Speaker 1: for You're gonna run into Tyler Perry, Like just wait.
- 6:28Speaker 1: If you live in LA, just wait outside. Like I'm
- 6:31Speaker 1: being honest. If you live in New York, just like
- 6:33Speaker 1: La Atlanta. If you don't live in those places, go
- 6:37Speaker 1: to those places and just wait. You're gonna at some
- 6:39Speaker 1: point in time you're going to meet somebody. Or you
- 6:41Speaker 1: could be intentional like me. When I was intentional about
- 6:44Speaker 1: meeting Don Peebles, I went and I met him. I
- 6:46Speaker 1: didn't have enough to offer him at that time, but
- 6:48Speaker 1: if I had enough to offer him at that time,
- 6:50Speaker 1: I might have changed my life fifteen years ago. So
- 6:53Speaker 1: it's like I guarantee you, at some point in time,
- 6:55Speaker 1: you're going to meet somebody that can change your life.
- 6:58Speaker 1: Are you prepared? If you're not prepared. If you're not prepared,
- 7:02Speaker 1: start preparing yourself day in day, night, day and night,
- 7:07Speaker 1: and when the time comes, take advantage of it.
- 7:10Speaker 4: Every moment prepares you for the next one.
- 7:13Speaker 2: Every moment.
- 7:14Speaker 4: We never skipped any steps. No steps were skipped, no
- 7:17Speaker 4: battles were not for like. We grinded, literally grinded for
- 7:20Speaker 4: years we had. I mean, I remember conversations we used
- 7:22Speaker 4: to have before we started teaching. Before you a financial advisor,
- 7:25Speaker 4: we were sitting in the car, like, Yo, what we're
- 7:26Speaker 4: gonna do?
- 7:27Speaker 2: This is my plan? This yep? All right, let's let's
- 7:29Speaker 2: go after it.
- 7:30Speaker 4: Let's go like fitlessly. Let's just go after it. Let's
- 7:33Speaker 4: create this business after that, Let's see if this works.
- 7:35Speaker 4: It didn't, We're all right, well what do we learned
- 7:36Speaker 4: from it? All right, let's attack the next thing. We
- 7:38Speaker 4: didn't skip any steps. That's why I always tell people,
- 7:40Speaker 4: they're like, yo, man, this happens so fast. Five years,
- 7:42Speaker 4: four years and I'm like, nah, bro, Like we was
- 7:44Speaker 4: really in a band room ninety seven degrees, like people
- 7:48Speaker 4: on vacation in Costa Rica. You know what I'm saying.
- 7:51Speaker 4: I spent it two months a day summer, just on vacation.
- 7:53Speaker 4: We would teenagers in a band room with cafeteria tables
- 7:57Speaker 4: just get into it and really just trying to encourage
- 7:59Speaker 4: them helped him learn.
- 8:01Speaker 2: It's a fact.
- 8:01Speaker 1: He's one of the best stories of that Big Sean
- 8:04Speaker 1: Big Sean if anybody doesn't know Big Sean's story. So
- 8:07Speaker 1: how he got Outsider West was in Detroit for a
- 8:10Speaker 1: radio run. He went to the radio station and Big Sean,
- 8:14Speaker 1: you know, he knew he was coming to the radio station.
- 8:15Speaker 1: He stayed outside the radio station and he saw him walking.
- 8:18Speaker 1: He's like, yo, I could rap. I'm sure that happens
- 8:21Speaker 1: every single day all day. Right, He's like, I got rap,
- 8:23Speaker 1: I got bars, so yay, Like all right rap And
- 8:26Speaker 1: as he's walking yay, still walking like a rap for me,
- 8:28Speaker 1: And he said he rapped for ten minutes straight and
- 8:31Speaker 1: at the end of it, he's like, all right, what's
- 8:34Speaker 1: your information? And then the rest is history. The bottom
- 8:37Speaker 1: line is that how long do you think it took
- 8:40Speaker 1: him to prepare himself for that moment. He didn't know
- 8:43Speaker 1: exactly when that moment was going to happen. You know,
- 8:46Speaker 1: he didn't know when it was gonna happen. He didn't
- 8:47Speaker 1: even probably know who it was going to be. It
- 8:48Speaker 1: could have been jay Z, it could have been probably
- 8:51Speaker 1: could have been anybody. But he was preparing himself for years.
- 8:55Speaker 1: Not only just from a talent standpoint, were from a
- 8:58Speaker 1: psychological standpoint as well, because it's how much how many
- 9:01Speaker 1: people are going to have enough courage to do that.
- 9:05Speaker 1: That's another thing.
- 9:06Speaker 2: You only get one shot, you got to go after it.
- 9:09Speaker 4: That's from the church, like you only get one shot,
- 9:11Speaker 4: don't miss your chance to blow Like that's the microcosm.
- 9:14Speaker 4: Like if we had to put paraphrase this, do not
- 9:17Speaker 4: miss your shot.
- 9:19Speaker 1: It's gonna happen.
- 9:19Speaker 3: I ask you guys a question, don't miss your shot.
- 9:22Speaker 5: How many people do you do you know actually works
- 9:24Speaker 5: seven days a week, even when they say that we
- 9:25Speaker 5: in Bungalow, everybody's.
- 9:26Speaker 3: Sending texts trying to get deals done.
- 9:29Speaker 1: That's a fact.
- 9:30Speaker 5: How many people do you see actually working seven days
- 9:32Speaker 5: a week?
- 9:34Speaker 1: The entrepreneurs, The entrepreneurs, because when you're entrepreneur. There's no
- 9:37Speaker 1: days off, so the entrepreneurs working seven days a week.
- 9:40Speaker 1: But I feel that.
- 9:43Speaker 3: Even out of them, how many.
- 9:49Speaker 1: Know?
- 9:49Speaker 3: Man?
- 9:50Speaker 5: I don't know when the opportunity is there, and people
- 9:52Speaker 5: can feel when you're prepared.

- 12:51Speaker 5: feel like, oh, I'm tired.
- 12:53Speaker 3: Go people from Citadel chick more like you have to be.
- 12:57Speaker 5: And then I'm talking to the market maker who trays
- 13:00Speaker 5: the most amount of shares for Exxon and I'm telling
- 13:02Speaker 5: them where I would get in. I'm not qualified technically.
- 13:05Speaker 5: That had a conversation, but me not missing any days
- 13:08Speaker 5: in the market made me really confident. Me and Rossmack
- 13:11Speaker 5: was just there chopping it up, and he's talking about
- 13:13Speaker 5: what he did at Morgan Stanley amazing interview by the way,
- 13:16Speaker 5: and a black box tradeing, and like you have to
- 13:19Speaker 5: stay on your ish every shout out to my brother
- 13:22Speaker 5: and Shed he want to come on and.
- 13:23Speaker 3: Debate too, by the way, So we got to set
- 13:25Speaker 3: that up. But I'm like, but even for the five hundred,
- 13:28Speaker 3: five hundreds is not a lot.
- 13:29Speaker 1: You go.
- 13:29Speaker 3: You can get a car, jury, put away, some tuition, taxi.
- 13:33Speaker 5: The five hundred be going in a year less less
- 13:38Speaker 5: bro got to have a real conversation about like what
- 13:40Speaker 5: it really takes to keep And I know my twenty
- 13:42Speaker 5: eight million dollar numbers sounded crazy a couple of years ago.
- 13:46Speaker 5: You can blow through five hundred thousand in LA or
- 13:48Speaker 5: New York, New Jersey. Shout out to Jersey in a year.
- 13:53Speaker 5: Getting the house and a car and tuition and taking
- 13:55Speaker 5: care of your is the way they should be taken
- 13:56Speaker 5: care of.
- 13:57Speaker 3: You got to set the bar higher.
- 14:00Speaker 1: So this this next time, take next time out of
- 14:02Speaker 1: your vocabulary. Take next time out of your vocabulary, because
- 14:06Speaker 1: it's like that one of the biggest crutches and escapegoats
- 14:11Speaker 1: that you people use, they're like I'm doing next time.
- 14:13Speaker 1: I'm going next time. Next time. I remember that. I'll
- 14:16Speaker 1: tell you story. That's what happened when we met Jay
- 14:18Speaker 1: Prince in Houston and the girl was telling me. She
- 14:21Speaker 1: was like, now, it's not a good time. It's the
- 14:24Speaker 1: only time.
- 14:25Speaker 3: Yeah, we gotta make sure it happens.
- 14:27Speaker 1: Only how are you going to tell me it's not
- 14:29Speaker 1: a good time when he's here. It is the only time.
- 14:35Speaker 2: That's a valuable lesson.
- 14:36Speaker 1: What are you talking about.
- 14:37Speaker 4: We're not gonna get another chance. We got to maximize
- 14:39Speaker 4: this opportunity because we're not guarantee you.
- 14:40Speaker 2: That was a lesson.
- 14:41Speaker 4: Again, some of these things we learned, like when and
- 14:43Speaker 4: shout out to bigs, you know, like I'm a big
- 14:45Speaker 4: Rockefeller guy. We had an opportunity to interview him in
- 14:49Speaker 4: our first year of doing Ernie Lisia, and I was like,
- 14:52Speaker 4: you know what, he's coming to New York. We'll do
- 14:54Speaker 4: it when he gets there. I didn't seize that moment.
- 14:57Speaker 4: Four years later, four years later, we still haven't sat
- 14:59Speaker 4: down with it. And no disrespect to him, and you know,
- 15:02Speaker 4: we've we've met him a few times. It just hasn't happened.
- 15:04Speaker 4: But I realized in that moment that will never happen again.
- 15:07Speaker 4: When we have an opportunity to do something, we're doing it.
