• 2:40
  Speaker 1: Listen at this point, Um, anything fifty decides to do,
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: I think it's very strategic. Um, and I think it
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: everything he does has been successful, you know, for the
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: most part, and if telling his story can be told
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: in a series and help him get more and more money,
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: even if even if he is adding a little flavor
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: to it, that's really what a lot of this is about. Okay,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: It's about having a foundation and creating something to get
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: some bread. And that's what this man is doing. That
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: man is going to continue to make money off of
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: his lifestyle for a very lofty listen to boys, smart man.
• 3:16
  Speaker 1: He's not a smart move and he puts the right
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: people around him, just like power. This is gonna be
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: successful as well. So I can't wait for it to
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: come out. Okay, yeah, I think the content creators um
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: really more successful than the artist. I think so personally
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: I can agree with that. And it's more money. He
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: does have one of the best albums of all time.
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: Get rich Trying albums, I'll give you that for sure.
• 3:46
  Speaker 1: I mean, when you think about it, like these movies
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: and all these new series that we're all watching, like
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: that kind of surround this particular type of lifestyle, they're
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: all doing very well. So why not take your story
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: if you've actually lift it and find a cinematic way
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: to tell it. He did. He is doing that alright,
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: Moving right along. Property owners sues the baby for alleged
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: assault after he tried to end an authorized video shoot.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: You know, these rappers these days, there's on these social
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: media platforms. They tend to get an a Airbnb or
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: you know, wherever they go and they shoot videos all
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: the time. And sometimes these owners don't like the bs
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: that goes on in these video shoots. So is that
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: a real thing? Is that a real thing? They're really
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: just going on like Airbnb Venbo getting the house and
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: feel like they just about to shoot me the video
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: or is it just like they're in the house Kei Kian,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: you know it's a party, like see the differences Now
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: it's COVID restrictions. So the man was saying that he
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: agreed to no more than twelve people. This man had
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: a whole shoot there. So about pot Yeah, just outside
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: the COVID. Everybody knows, okay that people want location fees
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: when when you shoot music videos at the slot, like
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: nobody is putting a house on Airbnb to get air
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: BB prices when y'all are shooting million dollar videos, like
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: nobody's doing that well, these I think these videos are
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: TikTok and trailer. Sometimes. I'm not saying that this that
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: was the case for this, but I think sometimes it
• 5:29
  Speaker 1: involves you know, uh TikTok trailer. But from what I
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: read UM, when the owner got there, he went to
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: shut it down, he was knocked on the ground by
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: an unknown person. They also claimed that when the baby
• 5:42
  Speaker 1: got out of the car, uh, they chased him into
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: the house and warned them not to call the police.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: Then sucker punched them in the mouth. Um also says
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: that the baby uh knocked the tooth out and left
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: him bloody. Now I've met the baby, the baby is
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: a nice guy. I don't think the baby is even
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: capable of such a heinous accusation. I mean, I ain't
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: gonna putbody and I don't know what happened because I
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: wasn't Now he's innocent, Okay, well listen, I wasn't there.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: I don't know what happened. What I will say is, yes,
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: the baby is a very nice person. He's a he's
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: a people person. He's somewhat easy to talk to. But
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: do I think that he's not capable of doing what
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: he allegedly did and he seeing what he don't play,
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: shouting man not saying several times, okay, what what do
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: you say for ur? He he a rapper that will
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: really pop off, like stop y'all. He says it in
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: his music all the time. We've seen video of him
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: being help a promoter. You know again, well, it didn't
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: looked like the promoter was laughing at that time. It
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: didn't look funny at all at that time. Now again,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: I say they did it. I don't know. I don't know. People,
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: I wasn't there. I don't know what happened. But don't
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: be sitting here and talking about he's too nice to
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: do something like that, because he's nice with them hands too, Okay,
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: and he has shown us that several times. He's a
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: nice guy with the hands. All right, Let's get serious though,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: because Tiger Woods is recovering playing surgery to repair significant
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: injuries to his right leg. From what I've heard, it's
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: all on espn um that he's even if he makes
• 7:28
  Speaker 1: it out of surgery, which they said it's a nine
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: nine point nine percent chance, and making that surgery, he's
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: gonna have to return daily to clean out the muscle
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: area of the muscle tissues and all that stuff. He
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: got into a pretty bad accident, and uh, Sue Solo.
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: We were talking about that on the radio streets now
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: four five Monday through Friday two pm to six pm.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Roran Sewart two were talking about this, and uh, we
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: were a little nervous because she was like, where is that?
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: And I said, I guarantee you it's in Los Angeles
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: because they got those heels man, those little windy hills
• 8:00
  Speaker 1: that tend to you know, can be prone to bad
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: car accidents if you lose focus for I'd say a second. Now, yeah,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: I mean honestly, when I saw, you know, it kind
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: of just came across the screen. We're at the radio station,
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: and um, they said it was a single car crash.
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: So I'm thinking, okay, Like damn, I hope he wasn't
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: trump driving. I hope he wasn't under the influence of anything.
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: And to see the photo, it does look like the
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: car fell from a hill, like a cliff for one
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: of those windy roads that you were describing. The one
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: thing that I immediately thought about was obviously number one.
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: I hope he's okay. I hope he makes it through.
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: Number two was is he going to be able to
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: play golf as well as he was with a messed
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: up leg. Um. I don't know how intense his injuries are.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: I don't know permanent damage. I don't know anything like
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: that right now, but I could imagine that if there's
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: something wrong, permanently wrong with his legs, because then I
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: have to retrain his body on how to play golf,
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: because you need some sturdy athlete. Yeah, based off I'm
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: a ESPN junkie. Based off the reports, Uh, they said
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: it's gonna be an eight to twelve month recovery. So
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: if I'm not even going to note if he can
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: play golf within until after that time frame. So we're
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: about a year out, you know what. And he's alive.
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: He is well. He's made it through some crazy things
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: in his career, in his life, and I think that
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: he will make it through this just and that's what
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: people are happy about. People are happy that he's alive,
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: more so as the golf park because he's already and
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: they did report that he was not impaired, and it
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: was quite it was like a pretty big road. It
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: wasn't like a little narrow road, and it was he
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: was the only one in the accident. So I'm not sure.
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: We're still you know, waiting for details on this story.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: But he is well, and I feel like he should
• 9:53
  Speaker 1: just relax and just let his body, you know, recover,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: and it may be the time to wrap it up
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: with golf and just be the dad who coaches your
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: son to be another youth. Yeah, you got kids. It's
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: time for him to be daddy Tiger, just daddy Tiger
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: and eventually be Granddaddy Tiger. How about that? I think so.
• 10:10
  Speaker 1: And you know, he was just doing the father's son tournament,
• 10:14
  Speaker 1: I believe, with his son um and his son as
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: a golfer. So I think it's about that time. Listen, y'all, man,
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: check on your mental health, your physical health. Make sure
• 10:23
  Speaker 1: that you know that you are blessed every day that
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: you wake up, Okay, and do not take the ship
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: for granted. Because people are losing their lives at the
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: drop of a dime. I mean, this is a real.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: Death is real, and I don't think that a lot
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: of us, you know, really consider how quickly like to
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: be taken away. So keep your loved ones close. That's
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: all I can say. Speaking of close guys and at
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: home shots of Johnson and Johnson COVID nineteen's vaccine will
• 10:51
  Speaker 1: roll out in New York City. New York's plans to
• 10:54
  Speaker 1: distribute Johnson and Johnson single dose of COVID nineteen vaccine
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: to his senior residences once the vaccine maker receives approval
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: for emergency use authorization. Johnson Johnson Player has pledged to
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: provide twenty million doses of the single dose COVID nineteen
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: vaccine by the end of March. UM they're waiting for
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: the FDA to give it emergency authorization. What do you
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: guys think about to get it? Um? Didn't Johnson Johnson
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: do like a recall because they have like ebola and
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: the baby powder or something like that, Like okay, calm down,
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: go down. So you guys are still not taking the vaccine, right,
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna start researching they're talking about taking the vaccines.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: I will go ahead soon. What do you say, are
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: you gonna take the original vaccine or are you gonna
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: take the vaccine that they tweaked because now they're talking
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: about they're gonna tweak it because of the new strands.
• 11:47
  Speaker 1: Had they tested the tweet vaccine now they have not.
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: They're going to tweak it and inject your ass with it,
• 11:54
  Speaker 1: and you're gonna come to work with a third arm
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: in two eyes that looked the other way. No, I'm
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: not listen. As long as for our as comfortable we're
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: taking it. That's all that matters. That's all that matters. Listen,
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: you do what's right for you. Just know, don't you
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: don't want to be the test dummy. Okay, I don't
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: know if I want to be. No testing method. We're
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: gonna tweak you guys know over I'd say a third
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: of the population just about the vaccine. That's great, that's
• 12:22
  Speaker 1: so great. I hope that by next year these people
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: are still normal and healthy. Speed all right, sou solo.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: We did have get get good news because you told
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: me last week I touched on it. I said, you
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: spoke to your mom. Yes, very quick updates on give
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: you'll very quick update on what's going on with the genocide.
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: Let's be very clear, it is a genocide happening Integrae, Ethiopia,
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: which is the northern region of Ethiopia where my family
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: is from, where my mother currently lives. Um, So what
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: has been happening. It was about a hundred days there
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: was absolutely no power. There was a communication blackout. These
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: people could not work, could not get medical attention, They
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: could not go to the grocery stores, couldn't access their
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: money to the bank. Let me stop saying couldn't. They
• 13:08
  Speaker 1: still cannot, Okay, but it was. It was a hundred
• 13:11
  Speaker 1: days of absolutely no communication with my mom whatsoever. No Facebook,
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: no text messages, no emails, no phone calls, no none
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: of that. Um. So, I had absolutely no idea if
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: she was still in her town. I had no idea
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: that she had walked hundreds of miles to Sudan as
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: a refugee. I didn't know she was dead or alive.
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: And by the grace of God, by the grace of
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: the ancestors who kept her this entire time, my mom,
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: as of and I really hate to to talk like this,
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: but as of last week, is alive and well. Um.
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: I did hear that the power and the communication has
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: been shut back off in some areas of the region.
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: I have not spoken to my mom for the past
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: three or four days at this point, so I'm concerned,
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: but that the blackout maybe back in effect in her area.
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: But um, it was a big relief to talk to
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: her and to know that. Um, you know she she
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: my mom has always been a person that prepared for
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: the worst. Um, she's never kept all of her money
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: in the bank. She's never you know, she she's just
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: always made sure to have a stash of whether it
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: was food supplies. And I never understood going up why
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: my mom was like this, and you know, it really
• 14:30
  Speaker 1: didn't come to it really didn't make sense until this time.
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: I have to remember that, you know, my mom also
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: survived a famine, you know, as a child. So, UM,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: the warm tap, right is still very serious. We still
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: need attention. So please you guys. I've been seeing y'all.
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: Y'all have been deeming me. Um, you guys have been

  Speaker 1: But I also need you guys to make sure that
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: you are tweeting about it. I know it sounds crazy,

  Speaker 1: but tweeting actually does get a lot of attention. Um.

  Speaker 1: The proper people and the proper positions of power really
• 15:07

  Speaker 1: former more House College student who is a twenty four
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: year old entrepreneur, Bryce Thompson. What's up, Let's do what's

• 17:00
  Speaker 1: Let's do it. What are you doing out here in
• 17:02
  Speaker 1: the streets that got your ass on the Baller Alert
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: Show podcast? Um, you know we just did, uh, we
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: just did a scholarship tour just recently a few weeks ago,
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: where we we went to about five to seven different
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: cities and you know, personally handed out scholarships to attend
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: were actually eleven different HBC Unit HBCU students around the
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: country work. I mean, you know, let me tell you
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: Black History Month. Okay, this is black people loving on
• 17:32
  Speaker 1: black people. Of course you're being a former more House
• 17:36
  Speaker 1: College student, you know, it gives a little spice because
• 17:39
  Speaker 1: you know we are here in Atlanta, so we under
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: a little extra credit, little extra flavor for for that
• 17:44
  Speaker 1: more House College. Now, how did you determine like where
• 17:48
  Speaker 1: these college uh scholarships were going? I mean, so you know,
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: everything that's been going on in the world over the
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: last twelve months with the Black Lives Matter more mint um,
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: I went to an HBCU hbc myself, and I think
• 18:05
  Speaker 1: HBCUs are unique and what they offered, just from my
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: own experience, I wanted it to be catered specifically specifically
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: to h b c US. Now, you know, this is
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: the first one we've ever did. I'm not you know,
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: that's that's not me saying that. You know, later down
• 18:20
  Speaker 1: the road or years from now, we may expand it,
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: you know amongks other college institutions outside of hbc US
• 18:28
  Speaker 1: as well. But you know, the first one specifically for
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: HBCU students. So I had to pay how much continue
• 18:37
  Speaker 1: to pay how muche to hbc S. Okay, I think
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: it is so important that not only we continue to
• 18:44
  Speaker 1: show support to hbc U s, but that we do
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: that even when we leave Okay, Now I didn't go
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: to HBCU, but I'm gonna say we because I feel
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: like like I'm a part of the team. Okay, definitely.
• 18:58
  Speaker 1: So what's what's in your near future or what what
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: else do you plan to do to help HBCUs. For me,
• 19:04
  Speaker 1: I was, you know, I want to get to a
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: point where you know, I can do with Robert A.
• 19:07
  Speaker 1: Smith did for more House just recently, where you paid
• 19:11
  Speaker 1: all the student loans off for you know, all of
• 19:13
  Speaker 1: the graduates. I think it was foren which was you know,
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: huge major. But you know, as of right now, you
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: know we we actually just made the decision to go
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: go ahead and pay it forward and you know, do
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: this again for next year. So you know that gives uh,
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: you know, even more students opportunity to apply and you know,
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: be granted a scholarship through our foundation. Now, tell me
• 19:40
  Speaker 1: how happy did it make you to be able to
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: be a part of something so strong and so motivating.
• 19:47
  Speaker 1: I mean, if somebody would have gave you some me
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: it would have been like if somebody has tell you
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: to you're you're you are a young man doing this.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: No for sure, I'm you know, I'm I'm gonna be honest,
• 19:57
  Speaker 1: I've you know, I've had a lot of things make me,
• 20:00
  Speaker 1: you know, make me feel good and make me, make
• 20:02
  Speaker 1: me happy. I've been you know, I've been blessed financially
• 20:06
  Speaker 1: over the last years to being able to buy myself
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: certain things and do certain things for my family. But
• 20:12
  Speaker 1: you know, it's it's it's a lifer. It's a little different,
• 20:15
  Speaker 1: Like I think, it's different tiers. Like one one you're
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: able to do for yourself. Second phase you're able to
• 20:20
  Speaker 1: do for like your family and the people that you know.
• 20:22
  Speaker 1: And then that her phase, it's like you you're able
• 20:25
  Speaker 1: to do stuff for people that you don't know, um,
• 20:28
  Speaker 1: you know, And I think that that that's probably been
• 20:31
  Speaker 1: the best feeling I've ever experienced, like being able to
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: you know, impact and affect people personally that I've never
• 20:39
  Speaker 1: I've never met before. And a real quick right, what
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: is it that you do? I know you're young, Like
• 20:45
  Speaker 1: you said, you you've done so much. Uh can you
• 20:49
  Speaker 1: explain to people what you do exactly? What's your job description? Sir? No? Right, So,
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: so I run in the run an investment group. So
• 20:57
  Speaker 1: a few years ago, me and uh few of my
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: college friends we got we got acclimated with an educational
• 21:03
  Speaker 1: platform called Iron Academy, and basically, you know, they help us,
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: they help us learn how to actually invest in the
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: foreign exchange market, the cryptocurrency market, um as well as
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: other financial markets as well. So you know, we built
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: a massive group over the last few years of seventy thousand,
• 21:25
  Speaker 1: seventy thousand plush people like we have. We have organizations
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: and you know, multiple countries now, and you know, outside
• 21:32
  Speaker 1: of that, I've I'm also an investor. So a lot
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: of the money, you know, you know, you can see
• 21:38
  Speaker 1: in we we've been in a pendent. We were still
• 21:41
  Speaker 1: in a pandemic, and you know, people people don't want
• 21:44
  Speaker 1: to use paper money. A lot of things are happening digitally.
• 21:47
  Speaker 1: Like even the other days, I didn't even know you
• 21:50
  Speaker 1: can tap your credit card. You don't even gotta stick
• 21:52
  Speaker 1: it in, you gotta swipe it. You can literally type,
• 21:55
  Speaker 1: you can just tap. I just I just realized that
• 21:58
  Speaker 1: like a few days ago. So a lot of you know,
• 22:00
  Speaker 1: a lot of different things are happening digitally, which is
• 22:03
  Speaker 1: making you know, the price of cryptocurrencies skyrocket up, you know, tremendously.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: Financially was my my biggest year and the bulk of
• 22:13
  Speaker 1: my income came from, you know, investing in cryptocurrency. So
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: by the end of the year or closer than the year,
• 22:20
  Speaker 1: that's when I made the decision. It's like, wow, you know, financially,
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: I'm in a position to where I can, you know,
• 22:27
  Speaker 1: not only help myself or my family, but I can
• 22:29
  Speaker 1: directly help, you know, even the people that I don't know,
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: you said cryptocurrency. Could you touch on this dodge coin,
• 22:38
  Speaker 1: uh frenzy that I see people were talking about talking
• 22:42
  Speaker 1: to it? Yeah, is it a long haul play? I don't.
• 22:47
  Speaker 1: I don't. I don't think it's a long haul play
• 22:48
  Speaker 1: at all. Me personally, um, you know, And that's just
• 22:52
  Speaker 1: that's just my full on opinion. I'm not personally well,
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: I'm not heavily invested in in dodge Coin. I am
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: heavily invested in you know, the other more mainstream cryptocurrencies
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: that have been around, like the big point, light coin, Etherorium,
• 23:09
  Speaker 1: those are those are more long term, safe, safer investments,
• 23:12
  Speaker 1: safer investments as spar as cryptocurrencies are concerned, for sure.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: I was just gonna ask you, you know, what would
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: your advice be for college kids go on your route
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: to you know, make it out of life. Oh man.
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: Financial literacy. Uh, financial literacy is a big thing, especially
• 23:30
  Speaker 1: for you know, young millennials like myself. I think financial
• 23:34
  Speaker 1: literacy is more important than finances itself. Um you know,
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: because you know, you one thing worse than not having
• 23:43
  Speaker 1: finances is actually getting finances and losing it because you
• 23:47
  Speaker 1: don't know what to do with it. So, you know,
• 23:50
  Speaker 1: I think, you know, I think a lot of you know,
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: young individuals, they they're so caught up on you know,
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: making money and you know, get into a certain place
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: financially to do this that or the third when in reality,
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: but you know, they should put we all should put
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: more focus on actually learning what to do with a
• 24:07
  Speaker 1: certain amount of money that we desire, that we want
• 24:10
  Speaker 1: so when it comes, we won't just have it for
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: a year, We'll have it forever. Yeah, I know that's
• 24:17
  Speaker 1: why you got to say that. Listen, ladies, he is young, Okay,
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: he is educated. He got some money from from to
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: sound like Okay, I don't know if he got a
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: girl or what the case is, but please tell everybody
• 24:30
  Speaker 1: where they can find you so we can continue to
• 24:32
  Speaker 1: keep up with the amazing work that you're doing. No
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: for sure. You know. I'm on a few different platforms,
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: but I think it's it's best, you know, easier to
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: contact me or reach out to me through Instagram, be
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: Thompson the pictrol on Instagram, a lot of my other platforms.
• 24:49
  Speaker 1: You can get to me through there. So be so proud.
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: It's just so exciting to see black people do what
• 24:55
  Speaker 1: you are doing right now. We love it, man, I'll
• 24:58
  Speaker 1: see y'all. Let the talk back with more of the message. Yo, Rory,
• 25:06
  Speaker 1: I just broke up with my lady man. She created
• 25:09
  Speaker 1: a fake Instagram page to catch me cheating. I wasn't cheating,
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: so I called on it was her and decided to
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: go forward with the exchange all the way into the
• 25:17
  Speaker 1: meet up when she walked Then she walked in trying
• 25:21
  Speaker 1: to go off on me, only to walk in on
• 25:23
  Speaker 1: all the proof that I had that she was trying
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: to play me. I felt like I won the championship problem,
• 25:30
  Speaker 1: but afterwards I felt terrible for putting all this energy
• 25:33
  Speaker 1: and to proving myself to be innocent and breaking up
• 25:36
  Speaker 1: with her. Should I have done it easier and stayed
• 25:39
  Speaker 1: with her or did she deserve what she got? Side?
• 25:42
  Speaker 1: And note we are we are back in the talking
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: stages again. But I'm not trying to deal with all
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: that b s again. Player. Player. The keyword of this
• 25:56
  Speaker 1: whole thing was uh and energy. You spent all that
• 26:02
  Speaker 1: energy to prove your lady wrong, and I'm gonna give
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: you a man to man tip. Sometimes when you just
• 26:10
  Speaker 1: prove your lady wrong, you wrong too. Okay, when you
• 26:15
  Speaker 1: try to make it that your your lady lose the argument,
• 26:20
  Speaker 1: you also lose the argument. My brother, you should have
• 26:25
  Speaker 1: just did what your ass was supposed to do and
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: ignore the DM, don't even reply, don't even circumb to
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: the d M or whatever the play it was she
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: was trying to do to catch your ass. You should
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: have just left it alone and y'all probably would have
• 26:42
  Speaker 1: it still together. But instead you created a whole mess,
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: a headache, and she could even feel a certain way
• 26:51
  Speaker 1: because you did play along with it even though you
• 26:54
  Speaker 1: was playing a game. Like how immature is that? That's
• 26:58
  Speaker 1: kind of immatured. All that's just my personal opinion. Now,
• 27:02
  Speaker 1: would I get back with her? I probably would not.
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: It depends on what stage y'all was in the relationship.
• 27:07
  Speaker 1: Seems like you guys are kind of young. This seems
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: like very college issue because they're no grown lady doing
• 27:13
  Speaker 1: all that. I mean, correct me if I'm wrong. I know. Uh,
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: Tunisia ain't doing all that. Okay if she if she
• 27:21
  Speaker 1: thinks I'm cheating her, it's gonna get up out of there.
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: Uh let me just say this quick, Okay, sir. You
• 27:31
  Speaker 1: put all that energy into it because you wanted to
• 27:35
  Speaker 1: prove the one time that your ass is actually innocent.
• 27:38
  Speaker 1: That's why you did all that. That's the only reason
• 27:41
  Speaker 1: why you're considering getting back with her, because you proved
• 27:44
  Speaker 1: her wrong one time. Okay, relax, that's the only reason
• 27:52
  Speaker 1: he put all the energy into it because oh, I know,
• 27:54
  Speaker 1: I'm I ain't cheating this time. Let me get all
• 27:58
  Speaker 1: the proofs a guy that make her feel sill with it.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: And then after you made her feel stupid, you sat
• 28:02
  Speaker 1: back and said, damn, my bits really be known. And
• 28:05
  Speaker 1: then look you said, I felt like I would a
• 28:07
  Speaker 1: championship chrophy. Come on, bro, but what to be right? Nah,
• 28:12
  Speaker 1: I ain't have a relationships should work that ain't because
• 28:15
  Speaker 1: you got away with it this time. That's why, and
• 28:17
  Speaker 1: and that's why you feel how you feel. That's why
• 28:20
  Speaker 1: you want to take her back because if she was
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: really uh, this woman who was nagging you and you
• 28:26
  Speaker 1: ain't been doing nothing wrong, you're not taking her back,
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: just going I think y'a should just go y'all separate ways. Uh,
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: you're trying to look like y'all trying to be with
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: each other out of convenience this second go around. Uh
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: seems like you're kind of young, because this is some
• 28:39
  Speaker 1: young folks ship. Uh, this generation Z mix, this is
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: definitely some generation Z ship. So just leave it alone. Uh,
• 28:48
  Speaker 1: and then just don't do that again. Just don't do
• 28:51
  Speaker 1: it again. You were right cool, that's what's up. But
• 28:54
  Speaker 1: you also lost because you lost she like okay, So
• 28:58
  Speaker 1: if she especially if she was a good you know
• 29:00
  Speaker 1: what I'm saying, she's a good woman, and she she
• 29:02
  Speaker 1: made a mistake, and she made a mistake, you don't
• 29:04
  Speaker 1: gotta rubber face in it, you know what I'm saying.
• 29:06
  Speaker 1: So I mean, I just think, just grow up a
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: little bit, uh, and just don't do that again. I
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: think next time, if that were to happen, you don't
• 29:13
  Speaker 1: know what to do and what not to do. Just
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: be like na bad or just ignore it. I ignore
• 29:18
  Speaker 1: d M all the time you did. I don't even
• 29:21
  Speaker 1: reply to the d M. Matter of fact, I don't
• 29:23
  Speaker 1: even put. I don't even open up the d M
• 29:25
  Speaker 1: so you can put so you can even see that
• 29:28
  Speaker 1: I saw the DM. You did what I'm saying, So
• 29:30
  Speaker 1: don't even that thing. Do that again, bro, Just all
• 29:33
  Speaker 1: back wise words, Ferrari, take us up out of here,
• 29:38
  Speaker 1: flower man. I actually had something today and just crossed

• 29:52
  Speaker 1: of people holding some seats. Uh, you're holding seats. You're
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: holding seats because you're intimidated by the young study intimidate
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: by the people that are younger than you. You are
• 30:01
  Speaker 1: also intimidated by the people who may be better than you.
• 30:06
  Speaker 1: You're holding seats because you're scared. If you, if you didn't,
• 30:10
  Speaker 1: if you, if you recommend it a youngster or someone
• 30:14
  Speaker 1: who's younger than you were, you paid it forward. That
• 30:17
  Speaker 1: actually makes you look good. It adds to your blessings
