- 1:51Speaker 3: What's the biggest financial mistake that people should avoid in
- 1:55Speaker 3: twenty twenty five?
- 1:56Speaker 1: You alluded to it earlier, but I think.
- 2:00Speaker 4: Even like some of the conversations I have on social
- 2:02Speaker 4: I can tell the people who are really locked in
- 2:05Speaker 4: and invest in, and I know some like I got
- 2:07Speaker 4: a message from a guy yesterday who commented about, you know,
- 2:11Speaker 4: Kendrick destroyed your man Drake on the Super Bowl and
- 2:15Speaker 4: his last comment to me in DM was twenty twenty one,
- 2:19Speaker 4: And I'm like, you joined stock club in twenty twenty one.
- 2:23Speaker 4: Let me see the game, so I quit executed, and
- 2:25Speaker 4: you know I didn't have time for it. How do
- 2:27Speaker 4: you not have time to get risk to take care
- 2:29Speaker 4: of your family? Regardless of what y'all think. Y'all used
- 2:33Speaker 4: that glazing word too heavy, and you got a glaze
- 2:36Speaker 4: over that network first for you have some of these conversations.
- 2:39Speaker 4: But Kendrick and Drake are good. The boy may be
- 2:42Speaker 4: a little bit sensitive, but PG.
- 2:45Speaker 1: Lane and everybody, I'll talk to you. All of y'all
- 2:47Speaker 1: they good.
- 2:48Speaker 4: Focus on you, like, eliminate all distractions and focus like
- 2:54Speaker 4: my kid just turned ten, Like I remember what I
- 2:56Speaker 4: wore when he was born. We're halfway into the decade.
- 3:01Speaker 4: Some of you are going to look up and it's
- 3:02Speaker 4: going to be twenty twenty eight and you're going to
- 3:04Speaker 4: be like, I don't know what I did with eight
- 3:05Speaker 4: years in my life. Lock the fuck in all of
- 3:10Speaker 4: these wars and rap beefs, and that's the distraction from
- 3:15Speaker 4: your real life. I don't care what you invest in Bitcoin, pallunteer,
- 3:22Speaker 4: jail stool coin shot the old boy from Barsool getting
- 3:26Speaker 4: that meme coined off trump coin and pick an asset
- 3:30Speaker 4: class and invest into it and perpetuity. People you know
- 3:36Speaker 4: how you work so hard, yo, if you're actually a
- 3:38Speaker 4: responsible dad, you're going to put it in work every
- 3:41Speaker 4: day to provide for your family.
- 3:42Speaker 1: I don't care what asset class it.
- 3:44Speaker 4: Is, crypto equities, private equity, real estate, your business. Put
- 3:48Speaker 4: something and invest into it forever. And if you're not
- 3:51Speaker 4: doing that, I know people love to tell you money
- 3:54Speaker 4: is not everything, and those will be the same people
- 3:57Speaker 4: when you need something, won't give you a fucking dime
- 3:59Speaker 4: to help you.
- 3:59Speaker 1: In your family.
- 4:02Speaker 4: Cost of living is going up, crazy people at eleven
- 4:05Speaker 4: dollars eggs okay, then the car and jury conversation and
- 4:10Speaker 4: even buying into startups, all of those costs. The cost
- 4:13Speaker 4: for the Super Bowl ad was eight million. I remember
- 4:16Speaker 4: when two point five was a big number. In four
- 4:19Speaker 4: years they have that number being at twelve million dollars.
- 4:23Speaker 4: What so much so the Starlink and T Mobile had
- 4:27Speaker 4: to partner together, which they already had for that ad.
- 4:31Speaker 1: To help drum up what so lock In, lock In
- 4:37Speaker 1: is the reason why we do.
- 4:38Speaker 4: The show every week to give you this information which
- 4:41Speaker 4: other networks don't do. I think we've made invest in
- 4:45Speaker 4: the easiest for anybody in the world because the other
- 4:48Speaker 4: networks were not giving you the companies where they were
- 4:51Speaker 4: going to fall to and where to exit. So for
- 4:56Speaker 4: you for twenty twenty five football to what is the
- 4:58Speaker 4: biggest lesson?
- 5:00Speaker 3: The biggest lesson, Well, the biggest mistake I think that
- 5:03Speaker 3: people could make is buying a home that they can't
- 5:05Speaker 3: afford or just buying a home that they're not prepared for.
- 5:08Speaker 1: That's that's that's the one that prepared for it. Yes,
- 5:14Speaker 1: that's that's.
- 5:14Speaker 3: Gonna hurt you more than anything in life, for sure.
- 5:19Speaker 3: Seen it happen a lot of different places. I just
- 5:22Speaker 3: saw Cash Doll on Shannon Sharp Show. Yes, her worst
- 5:26Speaker 3: financial decision ever was buying a home two million dollar mansion.
- 5:29Speaker 3: I think it was in Atlanta, I'm not sure. So
- 5:34Speaker 3: that's that's a tricky one because you think that you're
- 5:36Speaker 3: doing something productive, you think that you're actually doing something
- 5:39Speaker 3: beneficial when you're buying a home, and and if you're not.
- 5:45Speaker 3: That's how we did the episode with Keanu Watson. You
- 5:46Speaker 3: should definitely watch it. Things to Know before buying a home. Yeah,
- 5:50Speaker 3: if you don't fully know what you're getting yourself into.
- 5:54Speaker 3: What you think, what you think is actually productive is
- 5:59Speaker 3: actually extremely harmful for you in your future.
- 6:03Speaker 1: Yeah, out of hidden costs. There's a lot of him costs. Yeah,
- 6:08Speaker 1: definitely go watch that episode.
- 6:10Speaker 2: And we're speaking from experience, like like like that's one
- 6:15Speaker 2: of the things that we get to actually live these things,
- 6:17Speaker 2: learn from these things, and then teach these things where
- 6:19Speaker 2: most people won't even tell you that it happened, and
- 6:22Speaker 2: then you'll just see the outcomes of it. So it's like, hey,
- 6:25Speaker 2: hold the data, so hopefully you'll have to go through
- 6:26Speaker 2: that like we've always lived by that. I think the
- 6:28Speaker 2: biggest mistake is and this goes into investing, This goes
- 6:32Speaker 2: in life.
- 6:33Speaker 1: Don't let people trick you out of your position. Yep.
- 6:37Speaker 2: The people that are in your ear, the people that
- 6:39Speaker 2: are feeding you information, the people that are doing things
- 6:42Speaker 2: they want to be in your position. And a lot
- 6:45Speaker 2: of times right, and that goes in business. Like I
- 6:48Speaker 2: said in investment, right, let's move the market down, let's
- 6:52Speaker 2: pull the rug if it's crypto, to get better positions
- 6:56Speaker 2: for bigger people with bigger pockets to get in invest
- 6:59Speaker 2: and make more money. And when we see it, we
- 7:02Speaker 2: leave positions and we say we're never going back, and
- 7:04Speaker 2: then we wonder what happened in two years I was invested,
- 7:09Speaker 2: so never let anyone trick you out of your position.
- 7:12Speaker 2: And I wrote this quote and it kind of fits
- 7:14Speaker 2: what we were talking about earlier when we talked about
- 7:18Speaker 2: like stay hungry and stay like we always hunting. Never
- 7:21Speaker 2: let your achievements block your vision.
- 7:24Speaker 1: M hmm great.
- 7:28Speaker 2: Never be satisfied with with what's happened. Right, made a
- 7:31Speaker 2: few deals, but it's operating like it's one thing to say,
- 7:34Speaker 2: it's another thing to live it it. Yeah yeah, those
- 7:38Speaker 2: would be mine.
- 7:41Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, there you have it.
- 7:44Speaker 4: There you haven't because I think as we have a
- 7:48Speaker 4: desire to, and that's why I always bring up the
- 7:51Speaker 4: bank and a crypto point. If three years ago I
- 7:54Speaker 4: would have told you that the White House will happen,
- 7:56Speaker 4: cryptos are you.
- 7:57Speaker 1: Would have called me crazy.
- 8:00Speaker 4: Kudos to Sacks for making that move and on the
- 8:04Speaker 4: entrepreneurship level, but we just saw an entire retail community
- 8:10Speaker 4: of crypto advocates get tricked out of their spot by.
- 8:13Speaker 1: The banking elite in one year. I never thought, like
- 8:20Speaker 1: I knew the little you.
- 8:21Speaker 4: Know takeovers gonna happen with JP Morgan, I didn't think
- 8:24Speaker 4: at scale that this would happen.
- 8:27Speaker 1: Stay locked in, Stay locked in. But what do I know?
- 8:30Speaker 1: You don't know nothing about crypto. I knew that part
- 8:34Speaker 1: for in that new twenty K, but we've been here
- 8:38Speaker 1: for it all.
- 8:38Speaker 2: It's crazy like we've been here when it was that
- 8:40Speaker 2: twenty we was here when it was sixteen. So like
- 8:44Speaker 2: people who took advantage of that information and actually was like,
- 8:47Speaker 2: all right, what they're saying kind of makes sense, or
- 8:50Speaker 2: here comes a pull back, This might be a good
- 8:51Speaker 2: time to invest. Like the people who took advantage of that,
- 8:54Speaker 2: Oh my god, like they're out of here. You're out
- 8:56Speaker 2: of here.
- 8:57Speaker 4: I ask you, guys, you guys, have you met one
- 9:00Speaker 4: billionaire who came to you and said, I can't wait
- 9:02Speaker 4: to sell off these group assets never and they do
- 9:09Speaker 4: it in a contract in perpetuity. Shot all the talent side.
- 9:12Speaker 4: For those who sound talent contracts, you got to look
- 9:15Speaker 4: for those terms and perpetuity that means a whole time
- 9:20Speaker 4: frame forever, forever.
- 9:23Speaker 5: An illegal alien from Guatemala charged with raping a child
- 9:26Speaker 5: in Massachusetts. An MS thirteen gang member from Al Salvador
- 9:31Speaker 5: accused of murdering a Texas. Man of Venezuelan charged with
- 9:35Speaker 5: filming and selling child pornography in Michigan. These are just
- 9:39Speaker 5: some of the heinous migrant criminals caught because of President
- 9:43Speaker 5: Donald J. Trump's leadership. I'm Christy Noman, the United States
- 9:46Speaker 5: Secretary of Homeland Security. Under President Trump, attempted illegal border
- 9:51Speaker 5: crossings are at the lowest levels ever recorded, and over
- 9:55Speaker 5: one hundred thousand illegal aliens have been arrested. If you
- 9:58Speaker 5: were here illegally, your next you will be fine nearly
- 10:02Speaker 5: one thousand dollars a day, imprisoned, and deported. You will
- 10:06Speaker 5: never return. But if you register using our CBP home
- 10:10Speaker 5: app and leave now, you could be allowed to return legally.
- 10:13Speaker 5: Do what's right. Leave now. Under President Trump, America's laws,
- 10:18Speaker 5: border and families will be protected.
- 10:21Speaker 1: Sponsored by the United States Department of Homeland Security.
