- 0:00[SPEAKER_01]: Yo, Jake, welcome to the table, man.
- 0:02[SPEAKER_01]: Well, thank you for having me.
- 0:03[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, so yes, so I want to get straight into it, because Africa is very dear to my heart now.
- 0:10[SPEAKER_01]: I want to start with your story from the very beginning.
- 0:13[SPEAKER_01]: You went from having like zero interest in Africa to now dual citizenship.
- 0:19[SPEAKER_01]: You've taken thousands of people to Africa.
- 0:22[SPEAKER_01]: You are investing in Africa, right?
- 0:26[SPEAKER_01]: Financial investing into it by in property and your business, happy your business is over there.
- 0:32[SPEAKER_01]: I want to know what changed for you.
- 0:35[SPEAKER_01]: As an American citizen, what made Africa be appealing to you?
- 0:39[SPEAKER_01]: And what was that moment that said, you know what?
- 0:41[SPEAKER_01]: I need to invest into the motherland.
- 0:44[SPEAKER_00]: A couple things happen.
- 0:44[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, talk to them.
- 0:45[SPEAKER_00]: All right, I'm getting older at that point in time, and that was in the rat race.
- 0:50[SPEAKER_00]: I said a rat race, meaning just kind of doing the same old thing, successful.
- 0:54[SPEAKER_00]: but unperfilled.
- 0:56[SPEAKER_00]: So meaning I had the resources but I knew that there was something deeper.
- 1:00[SPEAKER_00]: I said am I going to live my entire life just kind of working and working and working and then at the end of it?
- 1:05[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 1:05[SPEAKER_00]: So I wanted to travel but I will always to busy to travel.
- 1:08[SPEAKER_00]: And at any time travel came up, Europe came up and we were going to Paris, so go to London, no go someplace like that.
- 1:14[SPEAKER_00]: Go to Hawaii.
- 1:15[SPEAKER_03]: Yeah.
- 1:15[SPEAKER_00]: When it came to Africa, it was always presented as a charity case or some place where it was a negative narrative around it.
- 1:22[SPEAKER_00]: And I said to myself, if I don't go and see if I made this out of that, if I don't go see, then
- 1:31[SPEAKER_00]: I'll be listening to someone else's perspective.
- 1:33[SPEAKER_00]: And I decided I was going to go take a trip to Africa, not understanding that it was 50 plus countries.
- 1:38[SPEAKER_00]: I was so African, ignorant.
- 1:41[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
- 1:44[SPEAKER_00]: I went on Google Earth one day.
- 1:46[SPEAKER_00]: Looking, I said, you know, I don't know where to go.
- 1:47[SPEAKER_00]: And everybody was going to South Africa, which is beautiful by the way.
- 1:50[SPEAKER_00]: But I said, I didn't know if I wanted to go to South Africa first.
- 1:53[SPEAKER_00]: I went on Google Earth, and I'm scanning over.
- 1:56[SPEAKER_00]: I said, where do I go?
- 1:56[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know where to go.
- 2:01[SPEAKER_00]: Ignore it's a misinformation.
- 2:03[SPEAKER_00]: I'm looking to see huts and people running around a street So, so here I am People live in the trees.
- 2:13[SPEAKER_00]: All right, he got jokes.
- 2:17[SPEAKER_00]: All right, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm sitting outside your back.
- 2:19[SPEAKER_00]: So I said, well, I'm looking and I saw swimming pools
- 2:25[SPEAKER_00]: And I saw mansions, and it's in God.
- 2:28[SPEAKER_00]: And that's what I knew I had been misled.
- 2:32[SPEAKER_00]: And I made the decision that night to go visit God a first.
- 2:37[SPEAKER_00]: So I went through all of things, nervous, afraid, listening to everybody else.
- 2:40[SPEAKER_00]: I already want to get you this bad thing.
- 2:42[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to happen to you.
- 2:43[SPEAKER_00]: You better hope you come back OK.
- 2:45[SPEAKER_00]: I said I had to push that out of my mind.
- 2:47[SPEAKER_00]: And I went and excited.
- 2:50[SPEAKER_00]: I'd never been on a plane, border five hours, or anything like that.
- 2:53[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 2:53[SPEAKER_00]: I landed in Ghana as soon as I landed in Ghana, I was so ashamed of myself because it took a lifetime to get there.
- 3:00[SPEAKER_00]: Wow.
- 3:01[SPEAKER_00]: And I was listening to people who had never been fast.
- 3:04[SPEAKER_00]: And they were telling me as if they were experts.
- 3:06[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 3:07[SPEAKER_00]: If you go, this is going to happen.
- 3:08[SPEAKER_00]: I saw this on the news and that's what I understood the power of the Western media in propaganda and how we had been conditioned to think.
- 3:16[SPEAKER_00]: And I spent those 10 days and just observed, absorbed the culture.
- 3:22[SPEAKER_00]: I went as a sponge, and goes above, I didn't go as someone trying to tell everybody what they were doing wrong.
- 3:28[SPEAKER_00]: I said, I was the one who had the missing pieces.
- 3:32[SPEAKER_00]: So I spent that time there.
- 3:34[SPEAKER_00]: And I remember I was sitting at a Chinese restaurant in Kumasi.
- 3:37[SPEAKER_00]: Chinese restaurant in Kumasi.
- 3:39[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, you caught that, did you?
- 3:40[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 3:41[SPEAKER_00]: I did.
- 3:41[SPEAKER_00]: Chinese restaurant in Kumasi, Ghana.
- 3:45[SPEAKER_00]: And I said, I'm going to bring a lot of people back.
- 3:46[SPEAKER_00]: Because I know 40, some of my million people where I come from.
- 3:50[SPEAKER_00]: who identifies either black American, African-American, whatever kind of, how do we have a call?
- 3:55[SPEAKER_00]: And I said, if I don't at least offer or become a bridge, then I will be a co-conspirator to this same problem of misinformation and disinformation that we've been dealing with for generations.
- 4:10[SPEAKER_00]: And so that's when I decided that I was going to start bringing folks back and we did our first group in 2019 right before the pandemic pandemic shut everything down, but that's when I continue to go back.
- 4:21[SPEAKER_00]: I climb out Kilimanjaro in 2019.
- 4:23[SPEAKER_00]: So what got me did was unlock all of the fear it broke down the walls and it showed me the importance of now.
- 4:31[SPEAKER_00]: doing it now.
- 4:33[SPEAKER_00]: I could have waited.
- 4:34[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 4:34[SPEAKER_00]: I could have hesitated.
- 4:36[SPEAKER_00]: I could have procrastinated that I'll get to it next year, but I decided in 2019 I was going to climb a Kilimanjaro or never climbed a mountain before, but the lessons that I learned along the way was what was preparing me for this pandemic that was coming up in 2020.
- 4:49[SPEAKER_00]: And so then when the world shut down, I was still going over to the continent.
- 4:54[SPEAKER_00]: I went to Ghana, I went to Tanzania, and this was laying the foundation because I understood the responsibility that I had as a black man.
- 5:02[SPEAKER_00]: to lead the way for others like me and others who had interest like me to go and see.
- 5:08[SPEAKER_00]: And so that's what happened.
- 5:09[SPEAKER_00]: And so the lesson in that was now, not waiting, seeing the opportunity and just seeing the kindness of the people.
- 5:17[SPEAKER_00]: I was told for years that over there in Africa, they're not going to like you, they're not going to accept you.
- 5:21[SPEAKER_00]: You're not one of them.
- 5:22[SPEAKER_00]: What one I went?
- 5:23[SPEAKER_01]: It was a completely different story.
- 5:32[SPEAKER_01]: For those of you all, what is, when you first think of Africa, put in a comment section, what comes to your mind?
- 5:39[SPEAKER_01]: And beyond, it's be transparent, no judgment.
- 5:40[SPEAKER_01]: But when you first think of Africa, when you first thought of Africa, what came to your mind, you know, was so funny.
- 5:48[SPEAKER_01]: before coming to the studio today to record today's show.
- 5:52[SPEAKER_01]: I got a haircut and I told my barber that I invested into real estate in Ghana.
- 6:00[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm going to move out there.
- 6:02[SPEAKER_01]: I live out there for four or five years so that way we can build our school out there.
- 6:05[SPEAKER_01]: And this is a minute.
- 6:07[SPEAKER_01]: You're not scared you don't get robbed or killed.
- 6:09[SPEAKER_01]: And I got upset.
- 6:13[SPEAKER_01]: I went to snap out of my little bit.
- 6:15[SPEAKER_01]: But then I quickly remembered, I said, boy, just two years ago, you made a dumb statement that I knew they didn't live in trees.
- 6:24[SPEAKER_01]: But the statement itself was an ignorant statement for me to even still make in that way.
- 6:32[SPEAKER_01]: And I remember,
- 6:35[SPEAKER_01]: calling you because we was planning to go somewhere else.
- 6:37[SPEAKER_01]: I forgot where we was planning to go to Egypt.
- 6:41[SPEAKER_01]: Egypt, okay, Egypt.
- 6:42[SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, nah man, I haven't never been to the motherland.
- 6:45[SPEAKER_01]: I want to go to Africa.
- 6:46[SPEAKER_01]: When Egypt is in Africa, but I want to go to our motherland, and man, we took, you know, a lot of people over there and I agree with you.
- 6:58[SPEAKER_01]: And when I landed, I never get awalked outside.
- 7:04[SPEAKER_01]: And I said, boy, this is not what they taught me in the classrooms.
- 7:09[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 7:11[SPEAKER_01]: And I said this respectfully because this is not all white people.
- 7:15[SPEAKER_01]: This is not all educational systems.
- 7:19[SPEAKER_01]: But the foundation of the educational system was not designed to teach African American history, of course.
- 7:27[SPEAKER_01]: And African American history, when I look at history and when we got into the
- 7:38[SPEAKER_01]: I said, what did I learn about?
- 7:40[SPEAKER_01]: They only sold me half naked people.
- 7:43[SPEAKER_01]: They only sold me huts.
- 7:44[SPEAKER_01]: They only sold me sleeping in the woods, right?
- 7:48[SPEAKER_01]: They only showed me that primitive living.
- 7:51[SPEAKER_01]: Is that clear?
- 7:52[SPEAKER_01]: But they ain't show me.
- 7:54[SPEAKER_01]: They got a luxury five star hotel over there.
- 7:56[SPEAKER_01]: They didn't show me, but I remember getting when we went, bro, they had a steak house, a five star steak house.
- 8:03[SPEAKER_01]: And a steak was delicious.
- 8:05[SPEAKER_01]: Absolutely.
- 8:06[SPEAKER_01]: What are some of the myths that you've seen and heard from America that after people have traveled with you and even us over to Africa, it just ships and it changes?
- 8:20[SPEAKER_00]: The skewed narrative, and I think that's important to understand.
- 8:24[SPEAKER_00]: It's not that all of the information was completely wrong.
- 8:27[SPEAKER_00]: It was almost like they found certain aspects of it to magnify, yes, sir.
- 8:31[SPEAKER_00]: and then they took the other aspects and just said, well, let's put that to the side.
- 8:35[SPEAKER_00]: So you could take America, if we just went to certain parts of America and projected this narrative to the world, come on man, then everybody would think, oh, America, there's this play.
- 8:44[SPEAKER_00]: Exactly.
- 8:45[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, don't go to America.
- 8:46[SPEAKER_00]: But the beautiful place isn't a merit, but more, so America's a brand master.
- 8:51[SPEAKER_00]: And so when you stop and you think about it, if you have campaigns that are designed to make it look like Africa, it's only a charity case.
- 8:59[SPEAKER_00]: And everybody's over there, sick, starving, corrupt, dying, and pitiful conditions, no.
- 9:05[SPEAKER_00]: And that's it, no.
- 9:06[SPEAKER_00]: Then what that does is it causes you to think, why would I go there to vacation?
- 9:09[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah.
- 9:10[SPEAKER_00]: Why would I even want to go see this beyond?
- 9:15[SPEAKER_00]: charity.
- 9:15[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 9:16[SPEAKER_00]: So, once people come and see for themselves, they're like, wait a minute.
- 9:20[SPEAKER_00]: Now here's what did it for me.
- 9:21[SPEAKER_00]: When I saw all of the people from Europe and Asia, living their best lives, living it, multi-million dollar compounds, building their businesses, I said, wait a minute.
- 9:32[SPEAKER_00]: Now, you know, you're a finance person, anybody with good business sense can say, well, let me follow the money.
- 9:37[SPEAKER_00]: Thanks.
- 9:38[SPEAKER_00]: If everybody else, if I'm looking who owns the businesses, thanks.
- 9:42[SPEAKER_00]: So that told me that there was something else going on.
- 9:45[SPEAKER_00]: And that's what everyone has a chance to see.
- 9:46[SPEAKER_00]: And that's again the importance of the power of now because when you're there, you know, I've waited.
- 9:51[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, who's building these buildings?
- 9:53[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 9:53[SPEAKER_00]: You see all the cranes in the sky.
- 9:54[SPEAKER_00]: You see, all of the opportunity to restaurants, who's doing this?
- 9:58[SPEAKER_00]: Now, of course, there are many people who are indigenous to the continent of Africa who are doing that.
- 10:03[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
- 10:03[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
- 10:03[SPEAKER_00]: They're taking advantage of their own homeland, but then you also see people from Lebanon, who are coming in and dominating.
- 10:11[SPEAKER_00]: You see places like China, Mall, that you're looking and you see, well, what are we missing?
- 10:17[SPEAKER_00]: And why are we as black Americans so often times?
- 10:21[SPEAKER_00]: The last people
- 10:23[SPEAKER_00]: We come in and we consume it.
- 10:25[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
- 10:26[SPEAKER_00]: Versus building it.
- 10:26[SPEAKER_00]: Come on.
- 10:27[SPEAKER_00]: And then you see the parallels between the U.S.
- 10:30[SPEAKER_00]: It is a global system here, a consumption versus development and building.
- 10:36[SPEAKER_00]: So that's the thing I saw and now with when you look at the black American dollar.
- 10:42[SPEAKER_00]: And you say to yourself, well, what can we do with this other than consume?
- 10:45[SPEAKER_00]: What we can invest?
- 10:46[SPEAKER_02]: Yes.
- 10:47[SPEAKER_00]: We can take advantage of it.
- 10:48[SPEAKER_00]: And what you teach as far as debt-free living.
- 10:50[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 10:50[SPEAKER_00]: What happens after you become debt-free?
- 10:52[SPEAKER_00]: Now you can invest and you can build real wealth.
- 10:54[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
- 10:54[SPEAKER_00]: And that's the opportunity that I saw on the continent and Ghana in particular.
- 10:59[SPEAKER_01]: Man, listen, I'm excited because it's been a last two years now.
- 11:03[SPEAKER_01]: You and I, your company, my company has partnered.
- 11:07[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
- 11:07[SPEAKER_01]: to take hundreds of people over to Ghana and y'all this fall of 2026.
- 11:16[SPEAKER_01]: We're doing two trips to Ghana.
- 11:18[SPEAKER_01]: One specifically right around Thanksgiving, right before Thanksgiving, which is a great month and then for the first time, we're going to do Daddy December.
- 11:27[SPEAKER_01]: And so we have two trips schedule.
- 11:30[SPEAKER_01]: We've already pretty much sold out one of them.
- 11:32[SPEAKER_01]: I think we had like maybe like five, six seats left on that one.
- 11:36[SPEAKER_01]: But we're opening up another one where you can go spend new years with this in Ghana, a Cragana.
- 11:44[SPEAKER_01]: And man, it's going to be amazing, it's going to be a lot of, it's not just going to be touring of Ghana, but we're honestly also going to have some educational moments to learn how to invest, to learn, you know, what are some good things over there you can put your money into.

- 12:15[SPEAKER_01]: You see, I just purchased a condo in a cross and I want you to see why I'm betting big on the motherland called Africa.
- 12:22[SPEAKER_01]: You see, most people think wealth is only built in America, but the smart money individuals are moving globally.
- 12:30[SPEAKER_01]: Ghana's real estate, businesses and lifestyle opportunities are exploding and the doors wide open for us to get in early.
- 12:37[SPEAKER_01]: Don't let fear or old myths keep you from the next big wealth move.

- 13:54[SPEAKER_01]: I've been working with them for a while, managed to be an excellent, excellent, excellent experience.
- 14:00[SPEAKER_01]: Jay, I want to talk numbers, ma'am.
- 14:01[SPEAKER_01]: You're a song numbers.
- 14:02[SPEAKER_01]: I want to talk numbers.
- 14:03[SPEAKER_01]: I want to get to real numbers here.
- 14:05[SPEAKER_01]: Why is going to such a powerful, well-to-moved right now?
- 14:10[SPEAKER_01]: What trends are you seeing now that you believe Americans, whether you're African or why?
- 14:20[SPEAKER_01]: Good.
- 14:21[SPEAKER_01]: I think everybody needs to go over there.
- 14:24[SPEAKER_01]: specifically more of us, but specifically more of us.
- 14:27[SPEAKER_01]: We need to go back home.
- 14:28[SPEAKER_01]: But for everyone watching right now, why does such a powerful wealth move right now?
- 14:32[SPEAKER_00]: Because it's developing and when you get into something when it's on the ground level, then you see where the opportunity for growth is.
- 14:41[SPEAKER_00]: And again, I mentioned the cranes in the sky.
- 14:44[SPEAKER_00]: And I see this in other parts of Africa, as well, out of Savabi, Ethiopia is another place, but in particular, Cragana for West Africa.
- 14:51[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, many people are leaving Nigeria and going down on them because they see what's happening.
- 14:56[SPEAKER_00]: So if you get into something or an investment early,
- 14:59[SPEAKER_00]: we go back to somebody early stocks and some of the other investments that are out here if we got into it early see too often I hear people say I should have taken advantage of this so good when I had the opportunity so good now the opportunity is before us yes and I see the building that's it's like you see the new restaurants that are coming yes
- 15:21[SPEAKER_00]: You see the new hotels that are now opening up, yes, to that's why this is so attractive because we have the ability and you can get into an investment or an opportunity now while it's early and then let it appreciate.
- 15:36[SPEAKER_00]: So for example, I'm purchasing two luxury condos in the heart of a
- 15:45[SPEAKER_00]: When I initially signed up, $150,000 for $122,000 for the other.
- 15:51[SPEAKER_00]: So now, what they're selling for, still pre-construction, right, $250,000 or $60,000 for the money you bought for $1.50?
- 15:58[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
- 15:58[SPEAKER_00]: So you can already see the appreciation has happened before completion.
- 16:01[SPEAKER_00]: Now, of course, everybody's results are going to be different.
- 16:05[SPEAKER_00]: So it can tell you what's going to happen in particular.
- 16:07[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm looking at this and I'm saying you're so one, because sometimes we're sitting on money in the US.
- 16:12[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
- 16:13[SPEAKER_00]: we don't know what to do with it.
- 16:14[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
- 16:15[SPEAKER_00]: But if now we become sophisticated global investors, we how many we learn and understand that it's not that difficult.
- 16:22[SPEAKER_00]: And this is what I tell everyone.
- 16:23[SPEAKER_00]: If you have the proper information, the proper education, it's not difficult to get into global and international markets.
- 16:30[SPEAKER_00]: But it just takes a little bit of time to put the time, it's to do diligence and learning and traveling and going to see.
- 16:36[SPEAKER_00]: That's why going with you this November and this December.
- 16:39[SPEAKER_00]: So important, because now you're going with a different mindset.
- 16:42[SPEAKER_00]: Of course, we're going to have a great time.
- 16:43[SPEAKER_00]: For sure, it is part of time.
- 16:44[SPEAKER_00]: Be some of the time you get the night life, the food, the vibe, and the food is a vibe.
- 16:49[SPEAKER_00]: The food is a vibe.
- 16:50[SPEAKER_00]: Everything is a vibe.
- 16:51[SPEAKER_00]: That's what makes it so attractive.
- 16:52[SPEAKER_00]: And people go and you see them posting and talking about it.
- 16:56[SPEAKER_00]: And that's not just hype.
- 16:57[SPEAKER_00]: You know, it's not just romanticizing.
- 16:59[SPEAKER_00]: It is really saying, this is the transformation is happening for so many people.
- 17:03[SPEAKER_00]: There's a transformation that occurs in conjunction with the investment.
- 17:09[SPEAKER_00]: So there is a deeper component.
- 17:11[SPEAKER_00]: It's not just going in investing.
- 17:12[SPEAKER_00]: Now you are investing into yourself.
- 17:15[SPEAKER_00]: Now there's a transformation that's occurring inside of you and you benefit financially.
- 17:19[SPEAKER_00]: And so that's the potential there for the potential financial benefit.
- 17:23[SPEAKER_00]: So you look at this and you said, wow, why wouldn't I go and see for myself when I'm watching everyone else have this encounter?
- 17:30[SPEAKER_00]: Man, listen.
- 17:32[SPEAKER_01]: I do that when I was in Ghana a couple of months ago.
- 17:37[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
- 17:38[SPEAKER_01]: One of my good friends, she's getting married there here in a few months to a very influential guy and Anna, I won't name drop, and she saw that I was there.
- 17:53[SPEAKER_01]: And she said, hey, oh, we about to come by the hotel.
- 17:57[SPEAKER_01]: There was only a way to a gathering.
- 17:59[SPEAKER_01]: And they said, I'm going to come by the hotel and they taught him to have a conversation with me and you flew a while.
- 18:03[SPEAKER_01]: And then when you left, we sat down.
- 18:05[SPEAKER_01]: A conversation that should have been maybe about 15 minutes turned into about two hours.
- 18:11[SPEAKER_01]: From that conversation, this is why I tell you all relationships are key because I would not be in Ghana if it wasn't for Jay.
- 18:20[SPEAKER_01]: getting to Ghana and building relationships.
- 18:23[SPEAKER_01]: Now I have so many relationships in the Ghana area.
- 18:26[SPEAKER_01]: But from that one conversation, I told them I was like, man, I want to start investing here.
- 18:31[SPEAKER_01]: And so a luxury condo came available.
- 18:34[SPEAKER_01]: I remember you told me.
- 18:35[SPEAKER_01]: He has like five.
- 18:37[SPEAKER_01]: He's purchased five of them.
- 18:39[SPEAKER_01]: They had none available for sale, because they had all a sold out.
- 18:44[SPEAKER_01]: Well, one became available.
- 18:48[SPEAKER_01]: He called me, literally, he was at me.
- 18:51[SPEAKER_01]: And he said, A.O.
- 18:53[SPEAKER_01]: 140 grand.
- 18:55[SPEAKER_01]: I said, wait, what?
- 18:56[SPEAKER_01]: He said, and then, bro, 140 grand is my buy-in, right?
- 19:01[SPEAKER_01]: They were selling at that time.
- 19:02[SPEAKER_01]: And if it just would have been an average person, it was 175, but because it was him, is able to give it to him if he could lock in today.
- 19:10[SPEAKER_01]: And so, I wanna have a conversation with you on,
- 19:16[SPEAKER_01]: One, two things, two things.
- 19:20[SPEAKER_01]: Number one is, where in America can you spend $140,000 on a brand new property and flip it?
- 19:29[SPEAKER_01]: Two, it's, what is the process?
- 19:33[SPEAKER_01]: Because the process in a Cragana or in Africa is different from the states.
- 19:39[SPEAKER_01]: And I think, and I want to rewind.
- 19:47[SPEAKER_01]: you know, a pay-cast for the condo.
- 19:50[SPEAKER_01]: I'll say about coming back home and doing something else with that money.
- 19:53[SPEAKER_01]: And I said there and I said, boy, this money gonna make you more money.
- 19:58[SPEAKER_01]: Because by the time the condo was done next year, I paid 140, it's gonna be like your math.
- 20:03[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.
- 20:04[SPEAKER_01]: It's gonna be worth $2,500,000.
- 20:05[SPEAKER_01]: And it's paid four.
- 20:09[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm, it says nine minutes from the hotel.
- 20:12[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, nine minutes from the airport, it's in a heart of a crock.
- 20:19[SPEAKER_01]: Doesn't know, Brenner.
- 20:21[SPEAKER_01]: What's the process, man?
- 20:23[SPEAKER_01]: Like, when people, okay, I hear you Anthony, I hear you jail, I wanna invest, but what do I start?
- 20:28[SPEAKER_01]: What is the process?
- 20:29[SPEAKER_00]: Well, the first start is to go see.
- 20:31[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir, hey, y'all gotta come with it.
- 20:34[SPEAKER_00]: Link will be in the bio.
- 20:35[SPEAKER_00]: That's the first thing, and I think that's the part when you get there, because you wanna know the culture that you're investing in.
- 20:42[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 20:43[SPEAKER_00]: And you wanna have that encounter, but after you do that, you meet with,
- 20:47[SPEAKER_00]: a developer, a builder or broker depending on what you're looking for because you have land options, you have new construction, you have properties that are already built, so there are a lot of different opportunities that you can invest into.
- 21:01[SPEAKER_00]: But first you do that, but you have to find reputable people just like into U.S.
- 21:06[SPEAKER_00]: The system is really not much different from the U.S.
- 21:09[SPEAKER_00]: It's just making sure that you conduct with the right people and that's where I see
- 21:16[SPEAKER_00]: and then they talked to the wrong people.
- 21:18[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah.
- 21:18[SPEAKER_00]: And that's why we have the pathway.
- 21:19[SPEAKER_00]: That's one of the things when you come in November and December with us with you.
- 21:24[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 21:25[SPEAKER_00]: Then we can, this would us, point.
- 21:28[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 21:28[UNKNOWN]: Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
- 21:31[SPEAKER_00]: We can point you in the right direction to at least have a conversation with people that I have relationships with that I know do good work.
- 21:39[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 21:40[SPEAKER_00]: I'm investing with some of them myself.
- 21:42[SPEAKER_00]: And so I've seen the testimonials that the reputation is there.
- 21:47[SPEAKER_00]: One of them is a top CEO in God.
- 21:49[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 21:49[SPEAKER_00]: So that's the first step.
- 21:50[SPEAKER_00]: Make sure that you go and have the proper pathway to get you set up the right way in God, sir.
- 21:56[SPEAKER_00]: The next step is understanding the different systems they have.
- 22:00[SPEAKER_00]: So, for example, we used to a mortgage system in the US.
- 22:04[SPEAKER_00]: Well, because you talk about being debt-free, well, one of the good things is that the way they have it set up is where you can be, quote unquote, debt-free, you don't have to take out a mortgage.
- 22:15[SPEAKER_00]: Unless you really want to.
- 22:16[SPEAKER_00]: But you don't have to take out a mortgage.
- 22:17[SPEAKER_00]: So they do have payment plan options.
- 22:19[SPEAKER_00]: It's almost kind of like lay away.
- 22:21[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
- 22:21[SPEAKER_00]: So when you take possession after it's paid for.
- 22:24[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
- 22:24[SPEAKER_00]: So now I've worked for a lot of people who are saying, okay, you know what?
- 22:27[SPEAKER_00]: I want to have a debt for your approach to this.
- 22:29[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
- 22:30[SPEAKER_00]: And so that's another way to look at it.
- 22:31[SPEAKER_00]: So they have different payment options.
- 22:35[SPEAKER_00]: Some people just pay out right?
- 22:36[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 22:37[SPEAKER_00]: because they realize, wait a minute, I'll sit on a couple of million dollars.
- 22:40[SPEAKER_00]: I can just, this 150 here, 150 here, it can, the return on the investment can be this after they've done their due diligence.
- 22:47[SPEAKER_00]: So all of that is a part of what we present to give people the ability to make fully informed decisions.
- 22:53[SPEAKER_00]: So that's the first step.
- 22:54[SPEAKER_00]: Go see and connect with people reputable people on the ground.
- 22:58[SPEAKER_00]: and really understand what you're looking to invest into but then also seeing the results.
- 23:05[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 23:05[SPEAKER_00]: You see the results of others who've had success stories and that's what I focus on.
- 23:09[SPEAKER_00]: Success stories talking about the folks and that way the landing is much smoother.
- 23:15[SPEAKER_00]: Then if you just kind of go over there, I'm just going to send my money.
- 23:18[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, I watched a YouTube video and I just felt good and I just sent my money.
- 23:21[SPEAKER_00]: It's like, I just pumped the brakes a little bit.
- 23:25[UNKNOWN]: Yeah.
- 23:25[SPEAKER_00]: get some folks who are investing.
- 23:27[SPEAKER_00]: You're investing.
- 23:28[SPEAKER_00]: You're putting your money up.
- 23:29[SPEAKER_00]: I'll put my money out.
- 23:30[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 23:30[SPEAKER_00]: I'm a dual citizen.
- 23:32[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 23:32[SPEAKER_00]: Done the groundwork.
- 23:33[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 23:34[SPEAKER_00]: Taking over 2,000 people.
- 23:35[SPEAKER_00]: So these are things that kind of speak for itself.
- 23:38[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, no, no.
- 23:40[SPEAKER_01]: I, I, I, I, I love what you just said right there.
- 23:43[SPEAKER_01]: You got to get there to check it out.
- 23:46[SPEAKER_01]: And you have to be very careful.
- 23:48[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
- 23:51[SPEAKER_01]: because doing my research too, as well, I can't say I met, no, I won't say that, because I won't say it about the motherland, but I didn't feel comfortable with some of the people who I was talking to.
- 24:01[SPEAKER_01]: I'm just kidding, you know?
- 24:02[SPEAKER_01]: And it was because of you and my other friends, I was like, okay, cool, I trust that person.
- 24:08[SPEAKER_01]: I can make the deal, but the process is so much different.
- 24:14[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I forgot they don't call it a a agreement they call it as something.
- 24:20[SPEAKER_01]: I forgot the name of it.
- 24:22[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I don't know.
- 24:23[SPEAKER_01]: I might pull up on my phone.
- 24:24[SPEAKER_00]: All right.
- 24:24[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, okay, because I want people to understand like this is a, this is for real for real.
- 24:32[SPEAKER_00]: No, while you're pulling it up, a point, there are again, folks from Europe, Asia, Middle East, they're all throughout Africa making billions of dollars.
- 24:43[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
- 24:45[SPEAKER_00]: So they understand something.
- 24:47[SPEAKER_00]: I remember I was going to Kenya one time, and Kenya is in East Africa.
- 24:52[SPEAKER_00]: It is chocolate city, if you will, it's so, there's so much melanin in Kenya that it's unbelievable, beautiful melanin.
- 25:01[SPEAKER_00]: However, when I was on that plane and when I was going through the queue, I was the only person with melanin in the line going through customs.
- 25:09[SPEAKER_00]: Wow.
- 25:09[SPEAKER_00]: I was the only person.
- 25:11[SPEAKER_00]: So if it was so bad, and if it was so primitive and everything you need to be fearful of, yeah, why are so many people?
- 25:22[SPEAKER_00]: from other places, going to this land, the resources are there, the natural resources, the human resources, but then describe overall, just the peaceful way of life.
- 25:35[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
- 25:35[SPEAKER_00]: And sometimes pieces will valuable in money.
- 25:38[SPEAKER_00]: That's the fact.
- 25:39[SPEAKER_00]: Sometimes you say, you see, it's a piece.
- 25:41[SPEAKER_00]: And that's what I've discovered.
- 25:43[SPEAKER_00]: I have never felt safe.
- 25:46[SPEAKER_00]: I'm Wendy's here right now, sir.
- 25:48[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 25:49[SPEAKER_00]: You don't know which drive-by, which car jacking, you don't know, there is a safe in Africa.
- 25:54[SPEAKER_00]: I'm saying to myself, it is a safe in Africa.
- 25:57[SPEAKER_00]: It is.
- 25:58[SPEAKER_00]: It is.
- 25:59[SPEAKER_01]: It is.
- 26:01[SPEAKER_01]: What you talking about?
- 26:01[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, now, based upon what our president said, we're in the safeest city in the world right now.
- 26:05[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, come on, man.
- 26:06[SPEAKER_01]: That's another sub-secret for another day.
- 26:09[SPEAKER_00]: You know what you call with that for anyway, I'm his credibility anyway, so that's a whole That's the fucking down that road because it's I mean when you start thinking Right, I thought thinking to yourself you're like Safety say now don't get me wrong right there are challenges and issues on the content everywhere everywhere Everywhere there's challenges and issues though, but it's part of the gas lighting To say well if what the news comes on
- 26:36[SPEAKER_00]: Nine to ten.
- 26:37[SPEAKER_00]: The first story is going to be something negative that happened in your city in the United States of America.
- 26:43[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
- 26:43[SPEAKER_00]: And just it will.
- 26:44[SPEAKER_00]: There's nowhere.
- 26:45[SPEAKER_00]: It's not nearly as bad as such.
- 26:46[SPEAKER_00]: That's what I'm riding around a Cragana.
- 26:48[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not thinking about getting shot.
- 26:50[SPEAKER_00]: No.
- 26:50[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not thinking about it.
- 26:51[SPEAKER_00]: Drive by.
- 26:52[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not thinking about getting carjacked.
- 26:53[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not thinking about a home invasion.
- 26:55[SPEAKER_00]: No.
- 26:55[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not thinking about any of this.
- 26:57[SPEAKER_00]: No.
- 26:57[SPEAKER_00]: And the things, the challenges that you do deal with there are miniscule compared to some
- 27:04[SPEAKER_00]: when you're walking around, I'm at the gas pump, just looking around, I've been trained mentally to say, you know what?
- 27:11[SPEAKER_00]: Let me look around, because if I get caught slipping, somebody's going to roll up on me, that's in the US.
- 27:18[SPEAKER_01]: Come on now.
- 27:19[SPEAKER_00]: Not thinking about that.
- 27:20[SPEAKER_00]: Come on.
- 27:21[SPEAKER_00]: In God.
- 27:21[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 27:22[SPEAKER_00]: And so those who tell you now, again, I'm not saying there aren't challenges, but those who tell you that, oh, these bad things are going to happen?
- 27:29[SPEAKER_00]: No.
- 27:30[SPEAKER_00]: Nine times out of ten, they've not been there and they've not had the experience.
- 27:34[SPEAKER_00]: No, no, no, no.
- 27:35[SPEAKER_01]: I found the name of it's called SPA assels and purchase agreed.
- 27:40[SPEAKER_00]: Okay, SPA.
- 27:41[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and I was like, what do y'all hide it?
- 27:43[SPEAKER_01]: She said, can you send me SPA point again?
- 27:44[SPEAKER_01]: I was, oh, what was that?
- 27:46[SPEAKER_01]: But yeah, it's the sales and purchase agreement man.
- 27:47[SPEAKER_01]: And this, I mean, my attorney read over is, it's simple direct straight to the point.
- 27:54[SPEAKER_01]: I just feel so good.
- 27:55[SPEAKER_01]: Like, when I tell you, I'm excited.
- 27:58[SPEAKER_01]: I can feel like I got me to talk about moving.
- 28:01[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I am because we're going to be launching a school out there, a Christian-based financial leaders' school on a bus, and we're talking to, well, you know who we're talking to.
- 28:11[SPEAKER_01]: I'm going to put too much out there for that, but, man, I'm just really, really, really excited about it.
- 28:17[SPEAKER_01]: So one of the things that I want to talk about
- 28:19[SPEAKER_01]: with your two properties are you going to air being be one of those can you both of them yes okay cool so that's what I'm going to be doing well when I'm living there I'll live in a condo and then when I come back to the states I will air being be it out what I'm curious what is that process there
- 28:37[SPEAKER_00]: It's the same as in the US, just the same way you sign up for Airbnb in the US is the same way that you would do in Ghana.
- 28:45[SPEAKER_00]: I've used Airbnb many times throughout Africa and many of the people who are only these Airbnb's coming from Europe, India, of course India is an Asia, different East Asia West Asia, but when it comes to us,
- 29:03[SPEAKER_00]: we're largely absent, that's changing because we're getting more information, we're having more conversations like this and we're having more thorough conversation so it's not emotional based conversations.
- 29:14[SPEAKER_00]: It's where we're actually sitting down and saying, okay, let's look at the numbers.
- 29:17[SPEAKER_00]: We're embracing the culture, we're understanding the history, but then we're saying, you know what, let me look at this from a business standpoint.
- 29:25[SPEAKER_00]: And more and more of us are understanding our power when it comes from an economic perspective.
- 29:30[SPEAKER_00]: And we're saying we can stretch our dollars further if we look at it from an international or a global standpoint.
- 29:36[SPEAKER_00]: And we're starting to see this.
- 29:38[SPEAKER_00]: That's why this conversation is so important.
- 29:40[SPEAKER_00]: This is why we need to share this conversation with other people that we know because someone's watching right now.
- 29:45[SPEAKER_00]: And they're saying you know what I never thought about that.
- 29:47[SPEAKER_00]: And so but now you go and you share this with your family and friends.
- 29:50[SPEAKER_00]: have a conversation and next thing you know, you have now created another pathway to generational wealth.
- 29:55[SPEAKER_00]: Yes.
- 29:56[SPEAKER_00]: Just because of us tearing down misinformation walls because we're becoming more astute when it comes to international investments.
- 30:05[SPEAKER_01]: Man, I love it.
- 30:06[SPEAKER_01]: I was talking to my builder and I said, hey, I really want to make sure this is a good investment and a place to be alive.
- 30:11[SPEAKER_01]: I said on the investment side, do you all have any help with?
- 30:16[SPEAKER_01]: you know, house cleaning and Airbnb and management while I'm not there.
- 30:21[SPEAKER_01]: Well, they said majority of builders knew the builders what honestly helped me with that.
- 30:25[SPEAKER_01]: They'll provide the services for you.
- 30:27[SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, well, how much is that?
- 30:28[SPEAKER_01]: 2%.
- 30:30[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, yeah.
- 30:30[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, what?
- 30:32[SPEAKER_01]: 2% to manage it, clean it up and down.
- 30:36[SPEAKER_01]: It was like, yeah.
- 30:38[SPEAKER_01]: And so I'm like, what am I doing?
- 30:41[SPEAKER_01]: That's like,
- 30:43[SPEAKER_01]: Where are you going to get a brand new development?
- 30:46[SPEAKER_01]: Where are you going to get 2% of management?
- 30:51[SPEAKER_01]: And then also, she told me Anthony, if you would have had our older condo during Daddy December, yes.
- 30:57[SPEAKER_01]: You probably would have made $10,000 in condo.
- 30:59[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, for sure.
- 31:00[SPEAKER_01]: Easy.
- 31:01[SPEAKER_01]: She's not because if it was, if your size condo, you could have ridden it out for $2 to $3,000 a night.
- 31:06[SPEAKER_01]: For not notice where she said, if you would have had,
- 31:10[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't have it.
- 31:11[SPEAKER_00]: I was so upset the power of now exactly if you would have had so who's going to be the person that watches this later?
- 31:18[SPEAKER_00]: It's if I would have had But you could take advantage of it now, and that's the thought because
- 31:25[SPEAKER_00]: you see everything appreciates inflation happens global inflation just like U.S. domestic inflation has happened.
- 31:31[SPEAKER_00]: So in three years it's going to cost more.
- 31:33[SPEAKER_00]: It's not going to cost less and obviously unless there's some sort of collapse in the market.
- 31:37[SPEAKER_00]: But when you start seeing this you said why don't take advantage of this now?
- 31:41[SPEAKER_00]: Why don't I get educated now?
- 31:43[SPEAKER_00]: Why don't I go see now so that I'll be in position even if you're not in position at this moment.
- 31:50[SPEAKER_00]: you can start preparing yourself to get into precision.
- 31:53[SPEAKER_00]: And that's what we're saying as far as thinking ahead.
- 31:56[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, people have wealth strategies for generations.
- 31:59[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 32:00[SPEAKER_00]: They're thinking about wealth a hundred years from now.
- 32:02[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, sir.
- 32:03[SPEAKER_00]: We have been conditioned in many parts of our culture to survive.
- 32:07[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, sir.
- 32:08[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 32:08[SPEAKER_00]: But we're getting more information.
- 32:10[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 32:11[SPEAKER_00]: We're starting to turn that tide.
- 32:13[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 32:13[SPEAKER_01]: You know, have you done anything with, uh, like, the stocks
- 32:20[SPEAKER_00]: No, I haven't done anything with stocks yet.
- 32:22[SPEAKER_00]: Now, the Ghana Stock Exchange is a little different, a little bit more conservative.
- 32:25[SPEAKER_00]: It is.
- 32:25[SPEAKER_00]: It's not quite as glam and glitz say as a US market, but there are opportunities there.
- 32:32[SPEAKER_00]: So it's definitely something to look at.
- 32:33[SPEAKER_00]: I'm kind of like a real estate guy because they're like that tangible kind of, I can get in and see, but I will be looking to move into building, so getting land.
- 32:44[SPEAKER_00]: and building.
- 32:45[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
- 32:45[SPEAKER_00]: So now I'm in the process of vetting builders and going through that whole process.
- 32:49[SPEAKER_01]: One of the things I do want to definitely talk about when we go over there is I open up a fixed deposit account over there.
- 32:56[SPEAKER_00]: Okay.
- 32:57[SPEAKER_01]: And, um, man, I really want to do some more education and really teaching our people on that.
- 33:01[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, so this is why you all got to come because I don't want to say too much now, because I'm still learning that.
- 33:06[SPEAKER_01]: So I don't want to teach wrong with that one, uh, but, uh, man, it's paying good.
- 33:11[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
- 33:13[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 33:13[SPEAKER_00]: Well, you know what's interesting is the currency.
- 33:16[SPEAKER_00]: This is another come on, man.
- 33:18[SPEAKER_00]: Thank you, come on.
- 33:19[SPEAKER_00]: because currencies are in essence like stocks.
- 33:22[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 33:23[SPEAKER_00]: And so you see what the god name and cd has gained on the US dollar.
- 33:27[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 33:28[SPEAKER_00]: Last year, if we would have, oh my god.
- 33:32[SPEAKER_00]: I'll go back to if we would.
- 33:33[SPEAKER_00]: We would have.
- 33:34[SPEAKER_00]: It was trading at 17 to one.
- 33:36[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 33:37[SPEAKER_00]: Today is 10.5 to one.
- 33:39[SPEAKER_00]: So that is almost a 40% appreciation.
- 33:43[SPEAKER_00]: Imagine had you just invested in currency currency what it would look like today.
- 33:49[SPEAKER_00]: Oh my god So if someone the power of now we don't want to look back and see now a seven to one or six to one Yeah, when I first went to Ghana in 2018 it was food point five.
- 34:00[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah So it could easily get back to that.
- 34:04[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, yeah, but if you have Ghanaian cities next to the dollar now It appreciates
- 34:10[SPEAKER_00]: It's one of these things again, understanding.
- 34:14[SPEAKER_01]: And that's why I want to get people over there.
- 34:16[SPEAKER_01]: Yes.
- 34:16[SPEAKER_01]: Because the fixed deposit over there is what we call CDs here.
- 34:20[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, I've got to say.
- 34:21[SPEAKER_01]: And the fixed deposit there is paying more than what we call CDs in America.
- 34:26[SPEAKER_01]: And so I'm enjoying this journey of just really learning more about
- 34:31[SPEAKER_01]: The mudland because it's making it's making my company good money.
- 34:37[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, but I want to talk about the lifestyle there Oh, you're that's important.
- 34:42[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we got to talk about that because I think a lot of people Have this question of
- 34:50[SPEAKER_01]: That's where how I want to say this, how I want to say this.
- 34:52[SPEAKER_01]: It's going to fall off.
- 34:53[SPEAKER_01]: It's going to fall off one and two, how does the cost of living compare to the states?
- 35:00[SPEAKER_00]: It depends.
- 35:01[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 35:02[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, you can live luxury if send just as much, depending on where you are.
- 35:07[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 35:08[SPEAKER_00]: But when you look at the day-to-day, so you can balance it out.
- 35:11[SPEAKER_00]: Meaning, if you, again, you're still taking a consideration to say 10 to 1.
- 35:15[SPEAKER_00]: So there is going to be that difference.
- 35:18[SPEAKER_00]: If you get a, say, $150,000 property, yep, whatever it was as a condo, you can go further on to the suburbs, if you will.
- 35:27[SPEAKER_00]: Yep.
- 35:28[SPEAKER_00]: And you take $150,000, as you can build a massive combat.
- 35:32[SPEAKER_00]: That's a lot that you can do with $150,000.
- 35:34[SPEAKER_00]: People struggling on social security, fixed income.
- 35:37[SPEAKER_00]: There's always going to be there.
- 35:38[SPEAKER_00]: They could go to Ghana and all of those worries that they have in the US.
- 35:45[SPEAKER_00]: They could eliminate just by with the right strategy.
- 35:47[SPEAKER_00]: Of course, with the knowing the right people, fixed income.
- 35:51[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, sir.
- 35:51[SPEAKER_00]: So security.
- 35:53[SPEAKER_00]: they could take that and go to another level.
- 35:55[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm meeting a lot of retirees that say, I was struggling trying to make it in Atlanta or Chicago or DC.
- 36:02[SPEAKER_00]: And I went to Ghana and I found the right situation.
- 36:06[SPEAKER_00]: And you can't eliminate, I mean, you can set up your own water source.
- 36:10[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, I'm not trying to make it.
- 36:12[SPEAKER_00]: You can have everything set up between you with all of the amenities.
- 36:16[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 36:17[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 36:17[SPEAKER_00]: And be just fine, yes, sir.
- 36:18[SPEAKER_00]: There are people who are winning.
- 36:20[SPEAKER_00]: And that's the part, you know, you're here people who are, oh, because a lot of
- 36:26[SPEAKER_00]: and they're romanticizing it.
- 36:28[SPEAKER_00]: But when you go with the plan and a strategy and you have the right coaches to walk you along the journey, then that's when you hear, oh, I was great.
- 36:36[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't have that problem because I followed the plan.
- 36:39[SPEAKER_00]: I learned.
- 36:40[SPEAKER_00]: I did my due diligence.
- 36:41[SPEAKER_00]: I didn't just show up in Ghana and just wait for everybody roll out the red carpet.
- 36:45[SPEAKER_00]: I actually,
- 36:47[SPEAKER_00]: when I visited.
- 36:48[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah.
- 36:49[SPEAKER_00]: I learned about the culture.
- 36:50[SPEAKER_00]: I tasted the food.
- 36:51[SPEAKER_00]: I got to understand, I learned some of the language, hung on with the people, and that was a gentleman who traveled with me.
- 36:59[SPEAKER_00]: He, he, he joined me for his first, he had never been to Africa before.
- 37:04[SPEAKER_00]: There's 2021.
- 37:05[SPEAKER_00]: He won my Mercedes into James.
- 37:07[SPEAKER_00]: And he had never been to Africa.
- 37:09[SPEAKER_00]: He was trying to get to Africa.
- 37:10[SPEAKER_00]: Been all over the world.
- 37:11[SPEAKER_00]: You have heard us there.
- 37:12[SPEAKER_00]: I've been everywhere else, but I've never been to Africa.
- 37:14[SPEAKER_00]: His wife passed away right before they were supposed to visit Egypt for the first time.
- 37:18[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah.
- 37:19[SPEAKER_00]: He was watching me on YouTube and he said, well, Jay, you know, I think I want to go to Africa.
- 37:23[SPEAKER_00]: And I think I want to go with you.
- 37:24[SPEAKER_00]: I said, go, let's do it.
- 37:25[SPEAKER_00]: I want to take you on this journey.
- 37:27[SPEAKER_00]: He took his first trip.
- 37:29[SPEAKER_00]: He hit me last week.
- 37:31[SPEAKER_00]: Wow.
- 37:32[SPEAKER_00]: He said, hey, man, you got to come visit me when you come back to Ghana.
- 37:35[SPEAKER_00]: I have my place now when I'm all set up.
- 37:38[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm sitting there like, from never having never been.
- 37:41[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, sir.
- 37:42[SPEAKER_00]: He's in his mid 70s.
- 37:43[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 37:44[SPEAKER_00]: And so now he's excited that I can bring my grand babies over.
- 37:48[SPEAKER_00]: And he's been with us in a couple other place on the continent.
- 37:51[SPEAKER_00]: But now he's settled in Ghana.
- 37:53[SPEAKER_00]: I said, you and Ghana for real, sir.
- 37:55[SPEAKER_00]: But everyone from that group, they purchase land, purchase properties, and they're still in the state, but they have a place.
- 38:03[SPEAKER_00]: And they have settled and they have been able to do it the right way.
- 38:06[SPEAKER_00]: And that's what I'm talking about.
- 38:07[SPEAKER_00]: That's why December is so important.
- 38:08[SPEAKER_00]: That's why November is so important.
- 38:09[SPEAKER_00]: That's why what you do is so important.
- 38:11[SPEAKER_00]: And I want to say this, I want to say this publicly.
- 38:14[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 38:16[SPEAKER_00]: When I got that text from you, when the whole video thing went viral, I understood the moment that you were in.
- 38:23[SPEAKER_00]: And I believe it was a divine moment.
- 38:25[SPEAKER_00]: I think so too.
- 38:26[SPEAKER_00]: Because in that moment you have so many people who follow you and they were learning right along with you.
- 38:33[SPEAKER_00]: but also the people in Ghana were learning in other parts of Africa.
- 38:37[SPEAKER_00]: They were learning as well.
- 38:39[SPEAKER_00]: But by you taking a complete, by you being willing to go learn and your perspective is growing and maturing, that speaks volume to your character.
- 38:50[SPEAKER_00]: It speaks volume to who you are and it says for others.
- 38:55[SPEAKER_00]: we didn't know.
- 38:56[SPEAKER_00]: I was on Google Earth.
- 38:58[SPEAKER_00]: I took it all the time and this is what I'm looking for.
- 39:01[SPEAKER_00]: There are other people like me and you who are sitting and watching right now and they're clueless, but they're peace in their freedom and so many are missing pieces.
- 39:10[SPEAKER_00]: awaiting for them in Ghana or the parts of Africa, yes.
- 39:13[SPEAKER_00]: But because, again, the various systems not all of them bad, but the way that they've been skewed have caused many of us to have disinterested, or even even contempt towards the continent, and we don't even know why.
- 39:26[SPEAKER_00]: But once we get there, we see for ourselves in the transformation occur.
- 39:30[SPEAKER_00]: So transformation occurred in you and now you're leading others towards that transformation.
- 39:34[SPEAKER_00]: And I believe that is much deeper than any of us could understand.
- 39:37[SPEAKER_01]: And I appreciate you saying that, but transformation is still happening in me.
- 39:44[SPEAKER_01]: Because every time I go back, I learn more.
- 39:46[SPEAKER_01]: And when I come back home to the States, I'm always Googling, I'm always learning, and I'm steady, okay, like I'm steady and a currency there, I'm studying how money really works there because
- 39:58[SPEAKER_01]: Now we're building this, this financial literacy school out there and I'm really excited about it because we're going to be taking we bought a bus and we're building, uh, taking all the seats out of the bus and returning it into a financial literacy bus.
- 40:15[SPEAKER_01]: And our goal is we will go to each school in the Ghana and a cry, Ghana area.
- 40:21[SPEAKER_01]: And even commas the area and teach financial literacy to the students there.
- 40:26[SPEAKER_01]: but in a way to where it relates to them there, but then also why she's giving them a little heads up in an American dollar.
- 40:33[SPEAKER_00]: Really?
- 40:33[SPEAKER_01]: To where they can learn both and hopefully they can land a job in America, understand a math in America while supporting their families in Ghana.
- 40:42[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 40:43[SPEAKER_01]: And so I'm excited about that because I'm going to be living there.
- 40:47[SPEAKER_01]: And one of the things that I had I was huge concerned about.
- 40:50[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, man, I like my lifestyle.
- 40:52[SPEAKER_01]: in America.
- 40:53[SPEAKER_01]: That's beyond it.
- 40:53[SPEAKER_01]: You know, it's like, I could get in and anyone's like, get married.
- 40:57[SPEAKER_01]: I, you know, health access here.
- 40:59[SPEAKER_01]: My team is here when I was sitting down with people there.
- 41:02[SPEAKER_01]: Um, there's a half thing.
- 41:04[SPEAKER_01]: You can get services in and Ghana.
- 41:06[SPEAKER_01]: Sure.
- 41:06[SPEAKER_01]: For Americans, it's going to be way cheaper.
- 41:11[SPEAKER_01]: And because you have such a good heart, you'll pay like a nanny and, and, and, and Ghana more than what they'll probably get from someone else in Ghana.
- 41:20[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 41:20[SPEAKER_01]: So you're being a blessing to them while saving a lot of money that you wouldn't in America.
- 41:26[SPEAKER_01]: So it was like, you're a lifestyle that's not going to change.
- 41:28[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, you can have a shelf, you can have a nanny, you can have a driver, and you're not going to spend no more than $1500 to $2,000 for all of that.
- 41:35[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, where are you?
- 41:36[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
- 41:36[SPEAKER_01]: And it was like, you get a cheaper, but it's like, we just know you're heart.
- 41:40[SPEAKER_01]: And I was like,
- 41:41[SPEAKER_01]: What?
- 41:42[SPEAKER_01]: How come this stuff is not taught to us?
- 41:44[SPEAKER_00]: Well, I think they're too full because everybody's not ready for that.
- 41:49[SPEAKER_00]: You were ready for that.
- 41:50[SPEAKER_00]: And what I say ready for it, meaning the realities of exploitation can come in yes sir.
- 41:55[SPEAKER_00]: And you talked about your heart.
- 41:56[SPEAKER_00]: And then being willing to come in and say, you know what?
- 41:59[SPEAKER_00]: Because that's what I believe in is creating mutually beneficial opportunities.
- 42:03[SPEAKER_00]: And looking at the talent, because the same talent this there, it's the same talent this year.
- 42:08[SPEAKER_00]: Facts.
- 42:09[SPEAKER_00]: And one of the reasons why, because people have to jail, you always own a torsion where I'm like, well, no, I have teams, but I also respect the people, their goals, and what they're looking for.
- 42:20[SPEAKER_00]: And when you merge the two together,
- 42:23[SPEAKER_00]: that's unstoppable.
- 42:25[SPEAKER_00]: And when you talk about taking the financial literacy and helping, this is something you're already doing here, you're doing globally.
- 42:32[SPEAKER_00]: But when you go to Ghana and you say, okay, let me help you understand both sides of this.
- 42:38[SPEAKER_00]: Or all sides of it, now that's empowerment where it's not, it's where you're able to see where it's reciprocated.
- 42:46[SPEAKER_00]: So now it's not just this one way path, because sometimes we go with the one way path.
- 42:50[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 42:51[SPEAKER_00]: Let me bring y'all some clothes and some shoes.
- 42:53[SPEAKER_00]: No.
- 42:54[SPEAKER_00]: But what now, when it's like, back this way, we can now work together.
- 42:58[SPEAKER_00]: Come on, man.
- 42:59[SPEAKER_00]: That forge is something that when I sleep at night.
- 43:03[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah.
- 43:03[SPEAKER_00]: These teams have my back, because they know I have their back.
- 43:07[SPEAKER_00]: And so now it's equal.
- 43:08[SPEAKER_00]: And so now we're working back and forth.
- 43:10[SPEAKER_00]: There are people who have completed the education.
- 43:13[SPEAKER_00]: We're one of our team members.
- 43:14[SPEAKER_00]: She's going for a Ph.D. now, she had never been on a plane before.
- 43:19[SPEAKER_00]: I quite a few people have never been on a plane before, but they're building homes.
- 43:23[SPEAKER_00]: I said, what are your goals?
- 43:25[SPEAKER_00]: That's what I'm focused on because my goals, I'm not, I don't mean you're worried about it so much.
- 43:29[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 43:30[SPEAKER_00]: What are your goals?
- 43:31[SPEAKER_02]: Yes, sir.
- 43:31[SPEAKER_00]: And the loyalty comes in because they know I don't see them as charity.
- 43:35[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah.
- 43:36[SPEAKER_00]: I'm looking at them.
- 43:37[SPEAKER_00]: I think we're no different.
- 43:38[SPEAKER_00]: And that's the beautiful part about and then when the respect comes, that's why there's so much respect on the continent.
- 43:44[SPEAKER_00]: because it's like, well, you all aren't better than us, and no, we're not.
- 43:48[SPEAKER_00]: I'm not even trying to come, you know, what, how can we work together?
- 43:51[SPEAKER_00]: Because it's been 500 years, facts.
- 43:54[SPEAKER_00]: When the Portuguese first landed in West Africa, yes, sir.
- 43:57[SPEAKER_00]: When the Portuguese first came, then all of that stuff started.
- 44:00[SPEAKER_00]: When the whole European transatlantic slave trade and all of that.
- 44:03[SPEAKER_00]: So how do we chip away at that?
- 44:06[SPEAKER_00]: And say, because...
- 44:07[SPEAKER_00]: The intention was that you and I would never go back.
- 44:10[SPEAKER_00]: The intention was that we would always see a problem with it and see and have, again, contempt, yes, or towards that part of the world with an actuality, the whole design was to make sure that pieces were taken away that we never had.
- 44:23[SPEAKER_00]: And then vice versa, pieces were taken away from them that they never had.
- 44:27[SPEAKER_00]: But what we're doing is going back and saying, hey,
- 44:29[SPEAKER_00]: Here's how we can work this together.
- 44:31[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, yeah.
- 44:31[SPEAKER_00]: So that's what I said, man, I'm excited.
- 44:34[SPEAKER_00]: And everybody who goes, they feel it, they know it.
- 44:36[SPEAKER_00]: It's deeper than anything that we can share with you on this video.
- 44:40[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, sir.
- 44:41[SPEAKER_01]: It is much deeper as we close our way over time.
- 44:46[SPEAKER_01]: It's just a good show.
- 44:47[SPEAKER_01]: And I didn't want to rush this one.
- 44:50[SPEAKER_01]: Two things.
- 44:51[SPEAKER_01]: Then Bacitor there.
- 44:52[SPEAKER_01]: She says something to me.
- 44:54[SPEAKER_01]: When I first got there and I said, how can I help my people?
- 44:59[SPEAKER_01]: She said, that was your mistake right there.
- 45:00[SPEAKER_01]: Hmm, okay.
- 45:01[SPEAKER_01]: She said, we don't need your help.
- 45:03[SPEAKER_01]: We need your partner, she said, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.
- 45:08[SPEAKER_01]: So that partner with us, hmm, because we can help you.
- 45:12[SPEAKER_01]: You can help us.
- 45:13[SPEAKER_01]: We can partner together.
- 45:15[SPEAKER_01]: But we need your saving.
- 45:16[SPEAKER_01]: Hmm.
- 45:16[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, whoo.
- 45:19[SPEAKER_01]: So now it was like, when I hear people say, oh, man, I'm gonna donate the Africa.
- 45:22[SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna go in and bring some closes and they don't need that.
- 45:24[SPEAKER_01]: any partnership.
- 45:26[SPEAKER_01]: How do we bring our resources our intellect, what what we gather, what we have, how do we go with air and partner with that smart individual over there, their gifts and their towns and their whist and we come together, help them help us and we help in each other.
- 45:39[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.
- 45:40[SPEAKER_01]: And that's why I'm like, you know what, I want to go help those students who are already smart.
- 45:44[SPEAKER_01]: who are already intellectually there and give them the skills and the talents that God has given me and partner with them to help them to rest their goals.
- 45:52[SPEAKER_01]: Rest help them accomplish their things, which is why I'm so, so, so excited, which is why the disease went to the second thing.
- 45:59[SPEAKER_01]: Y'all, you've got to come.
- 46:02[SPEAKER_01]: You got to get there.
- 46:04[SPEAKER_01]: One, two learning to grow and evolve and expose and and one thing I am disappointed within my particular groups is we haven't had kids come.
- 46:13[SPEAKER_01]: Okay.
- 46:14[SPEAKER_01]: I want kids.
- 46:15[SPEAKER_01]: I want parents to bring their kids and expose them and middle school in high school because what they're learning inside of middle school in high school is not what we're seeing over there in the continent.
- 46:36[SPEAKER_01]: You'll be able to see the trip for November.
- 46:39[SPEAKER_01]: Let me go like five or six seats on that one and then you come in December.
- 46:42[SPEAKER_01]: Now December is going to be more of a night life type fill in the evening, but we're still into the tour.
- 46:47[SPEAKER_01]: Still going to expose you to the business opportunities and investment opportunities out there.
- 46:52[SPEAKER_01]: But that's over the new years.
