Speaker 1: So this just made me think about something because he
0:01
Speaker 1: put a post up yesterday. So you have the top
0:08
Speaker 1: eighty one billionaires in the world have more wealth than
0:11
Speaker 1: fifty percent of the world's population. Combind, that's four point
0:16
Speaker 1: six billion people. So eighty one people have more wealth
0:21
Speaker 1: than four point six billion people. We already know that
0:24
Speaker 1: Elon Musk is planning civilization on Mars. We just covered
0:31
Speaker 1: that Mark Zuckerberg and his wife planning to eradicate all
0:37
Speaker 1: human diseases by the year two thousand and one hundred
0:41
Speaker 1: by using artificial intelligence, and we talked about potential technology
0:47
Speaker 1: to make humans immortal. So it's pretty amazing and discouraging
0:55
Speaker 1: when I go on social media and what I see
0:59
Speaker 1: is debates about fantasy football, said rapper having beef with
1:08
Speaker 1: said rappers husband, food debates, fashion debates, and a bunch
1:17
Speaker 1: of other random nonsense that has no real significance in life.
1:23
Speaker 1: And this is happening in real time right in front
1:26
Speaker 1: of you, and you're being consumed with so much nonsense
1:35
Speaker 1: that you don't even even have any concerns or cares
1:38
Speaker 1: about it at all. And it's like robbing a bank
1:41
Speaker 1: right in front of you. You don't even have to
1:42
Speaker 1: actually hide things. It's done in plain sight when you're
1:46
Speaker 1: looking at that. This is things that are changing the
1:50
Speaker 1: way that the world will operate and directly affect every
1:55
Speaker 1: single human being that's living on planet Earth. And the
2:00
Speaker 1: vast majority of people are concerned with such unimportant things.
2:08
Speaker 1: They wouldn't even register on any of these things that
2:11
Speaker 1: I just talked about levels. So when you're looking at
2:14
Speaker 1: your life and you're not where you want to be, well,
2:19
Speaker 1: that's the reason. Because you're making conscious decisions to consume
2:24
Speaker 1: things that are taking you away from any level of productivity,
2:30
Speaker 1: and you're staying there, and it's being done on purpose,
2:35
Speaker 1: And everybody should be embarrassed, the people that are doing
2:39
Speaker 1: it on the media side, the people that are actually
2:41
Speaker 1: producing the content should be embarrassed, and the people that's
2:44
Speaker 1: consuming the content should be embarrassed. It's like going back
2:47
Speaker 1: to say, Okay, well there's so much alcohol in the hood,
2:50
Speaker 1: Well who made you drink alcohol? You're still making a
2:53
Speaker 1: conscious decision. We already know that the cards are stacked
2:56
Speaker 1: against us. So when you make a decision to consume
3:00
Speaker 1: this content, that's a decision that you're making because there
3:03
Speaker 1: are alternatives. You're watching an alternative right now. But unfortunately,
3:07
Speaker 1: we're never going to have the same level of viewership
3:09
Speaker 1: or interest as any of those things that I just mentioned.
3:12
Speaker 1: So at some point you have to take self accountability
3:18
Speaker 1: and realize that as the world changes, and as we
3:23
Speaker 1: enter a new world you can call it a new world,
3:25
Speaker 1: orthough you could just call it a new world, you
3:27
Speaker 1: will you will be a digital slave, and this time
3:31
Speaker 1: your slavery will be voluntary. You signed up for it,
3:37
Speaker 1: and you gave no fight, and you will continue to
3:43
Speaker 1: stay at the same level that you're at, potentially even worse.
3:47
Speaker 1: Your children also, And that's the decision that you have
3:52
Speaker 1: to make. Are you comfortable with this or do you
3:54
Speaker 1: want better.
3:57
Speaker 2: Choice?
3:58
Speaker 3: The choices you choices.
4:01
Speaker 4: Let me piggyback off that Tesla doesn't talk with Saudi
4:04
Speaker 4: Arabia to open a new factory in their country. Shout
4:07
Speaker 4: out to Jamie Dimond. JP Morgan CEO says that it
4:10
Speaker 4: is a huge mistake to think the economy would boom
4:13
Speaker 4: anytime soon. This is probably one of the greatest bankers
4:16
Speaker 4: since James Pierpont Morgan, who the firm is named after,
4:20
Speaker 4: is telling you the truth. National debt is study three
4:23
Speaker 4: trillion the US government spending that represents about twenty five
4:25
Speaker 4: percent of GDP. Credit card losses are rising at the
4:29
Speaker 4: fastest rate since two thousand and eight, and there have
4:31
Speaker 4: been one hundred and sixteen IPOs on a US stock
4:34
Speaker 4: market in twenty twenty three, twenty seven percent less than
4:38
Speaker 4: the same time in twenty twenty two, and most of
4:41
Speaker 4: them are trash. The trash part was my audition. We
4:45
Speaker 4: have to focus on the parts that really matter.
4:49
Speaker 3: Arm Greate.
4:51
Speaker 4: Kudos to Rashan for being involved in instacart. Instacart and
4:55
Speaker 4: Walmart expects sixty five percent of their stores to be
4:57
Speaker 4: automated by twenty twenty six. I don't care what Sexy
5:00
Speaker 4: said back to even you.
5:03
Speaker 5: Know, I don't care what you got to watch from
5:05
Speaker 5: Like who's sing?
5:09
Speaker 4: Even another leather jacket. Let's talk about the rant era
5:12
Speaker 4: all that I hate. I had it had to even
5:15
Speaker 4: do that to get y'all to watch this information. People
5:18
Speaker 4: like he don't know Crypto. I know I've been financially
5:21
Speaker 4: free since twenty fifteen. You can ask my mom dad
5:26
Speaker 4: when I was broke. I'll tell you I was broke
5:27
Speaker 4: when I was up. I'm gonna tell you I'm up.
5:29
Speaker 4: But I'm free as my baby mama will be good
5:32
Speaker 4: or will be bad. You can see it in Xander's face. Right,
5:35
Speaker 4: we have to stop. And I keep pointing us out
5:38
Speaker 4: to every shop at the math hop I'm going on
5:40
Speaker 4: this week. I ask every podcaster, and I asked every
5:45
Speaker 4: week how many podcasts making million dollars a year more?
5:48
Speaker 4: And retravershot always laugh because they don't want to say
5:51
Speaker 4: most of them it's broke. But I keep asking that
5:54
Speaker 4: question to tell you that having beef in the media
5:57
Speaker 4: does not pay you. Mister Beech just said that five
6:00
Speaker 4: hundred million view No, No, one hundred million view video
6:04
Speaker 4: he did, he got five hundred grand I said, thank god,
6:08
Speaker 4: I'm not in that business. That's a lot of other
6:12
Speaker 4: ways to get five hundred k real quick. That takes two.
6:16
Speaker 4: If I got one hundred million views, I want three
6:18
Speaker 4: hundred million. But watch how YouTube after the strike is
6:22
Speaker 4: fixed with the writers, YouTube ends up being the biggest
6:26
Speaker 4: movie producer in the next ten years. You got a
6:30
Speaker 4: monitor pick from Hey, bring me a movie fully produced,
6:33
Speaker 4: fully edit it, or we'll pay for the movie in advance.
6:37
Speaker 4: Which one you think of? When I'm gonna go with
6:38
Speaker 4: Google a for two hundred focus on the things that matter.
6:42
Speaker 4: That's why I put up the other day. Too many opinions,
6:45
Speaker 4: not enough assets. And if I've had helped you increase
6:48
Speaker 4: how many assets you have on the management in your
6:50
Speaker 4: personal household, please put yes the chat. But we gotta
6:53
Speaker 4: stop focusing on the BS. Drake and Charlomane. Kudos to
6:57
Speaker 4: charlom Mane for not feeding back into the BS. You
7:00
Speaker 4: can't even give an opinion. No more people attacking the
7:02
Speaker 4: yield on a tenure Treasury Scott Rocker to unparalleled heights
7:06
Speaker 4: from two thousand and six. The bob market is now
7:09
Speaker 4: booming after it collapsed since twenty twenty. Even with us,
7:15
Speaker 4: how much fluff conversation do we have? Shout out to
7:18
Speaker 4: the Houston Rockets and New Doku in everybody. We don't
7:20
Speaker 4: have no fluff. Hey, hey, we want to talk about diversification.
7:26
Speaker 4: I ain't said too much. Shout out Dylan Brooks. You
7:29
Speaker 4: know what I mean talking my behaviors, boy boy a
7:35
Speaker 4: hit different. Well you wow for that? I mean not
7:39
Speaker 4: but it's mean you know, it's like wow for that.
7:41
Speaker 4: It's like said.
7:45
Speaker 1: When Jay was like, yo, we ain't get due to
7:47
Speaker 1: you yet. Yeah, you're going to keep. Yeah, yet attention
7:53
Speaker 1: is the most valuable commodity. This is why it's so
7:56
Speaker 1: sought after. So it can never compete with sports, to coignefic,
8:01
Speaker 1: compete with entertainment or celebrity gossip.
8:03
Speaker 3: It's just it's impossible.
8:04
Speaker 1: It's amazing that you know, he even was able to
8:08
Speaker 1: reach this level and still going. But you know, at
8:13
Speaker 1: some point in time, you gotta take self accountability. Like
8:14
Speaker 1: I said, we we can blame other people, and other
8:19
Speaker 1: people are responsible for a variety of different things historically
8:23
Speaker 1: and currently, but ultimately self accountability has to be had,
8:29
Speaker 1: has to And it's like, if you are in a
8:34
Speaker 1: position where you're an adult and you're indulging in these
8:39
Speaker 1: type of mindless entertainment over and over again, it's going
8:43
Speaker 1: to have an effect on your life. It's impossible for
8:46
Speaker 1: it not to. Like, it's impossible for you to know
8:48
Speaker 1: every single thing that's happening on Shape Room, on Academics,
8:52
Speaker 1: on Hollywood and lock and shout out to all of
8:54
Speaker 1: those people teams. But I'm just saying, it's just impossible
8:57
Speaker 1: for you to know every single thing that's happening and.
9:00
Speaker 3: Still be at a highly productive level.
9:02
Speaker 1: It's impossible because I know billionaires, and I don't know
9:05
Speaker 1: any billion and that knows any of this stuff that's happening.
9:08
Speaker 3: So you can't, you can't.
9:10
Speaker 4: You can't negative on it.
9:14
Speaker 1: It is I've never I've never heard Mark Cuban talk
9:17
Speaker 1: about Cardi b and Nicki Minaja's beef. I never heard
9:22
Speaker 1: Robert Smith talk about his fantasy football pick.
9:26
Speaker 3: I've never heard Michael nova.
9:28
Speaker 1: Grats talk about my terry cloth choice of outfits. On
9:33
Speaker 1: investments stage. Here as certain things that I've never I've
9:36
Speaker 1: never heard. I have heard them talk about artificial intelligence, cryptocurrency,
9:42
Speaker 1: investing in companies, habits, behaviors. Those these are conversations that
9:46
Speaker 1: I've actually heard. So I just say, you don't have
9:51
Speaker 1: to have the aspiration of being a billionaire, but these
9:54
Speaker 1: are have They're not done by accident. I'm saying that
9:59
Speaker 1: these type of habits are are not caused by accident.
10:01
Speaker 1: So you it's a certain level of self evaluation mm
10:05
Speaker 1: hmm that we all have to do, even us, like
10:08
Speaker 1: you know, sometimes you gotta look at like like them.
10:10
Speaker 1: I'm focusing too much on this is this isn't. I
10:13
Speaker 1: gotta get back to what's really important, right, But you're
10:15
Speaker 1: on YouTube and going through the whole rabbit hole of
10:21
Speaker 1: gangland in America. And you know about the blood set
10:26
Speaker 1: in stocked in Californi. It's not you live in you
10:33
Speaker 1: live in Tampa, Florida. Why are you fascinated with gangster
10:38
Speaker 1: disciples in Chicago, Illinois. It's it's not beneficial to your life.
10:43
Speaker 1: But they programmed us to look at somebody else's struggle
10:47
Speaker 1: as entertainment and even even like even like this rat
10:51
Speaker 1: beef and different than that's somebody else's that's a real
10:53
Speaker 1: life conflict. That's a struggle that somebody has, whether they
10:55
Speaker 1: haven't gotten emotionally atchured enough to know how to handle
10:59
Speaker 1: themselves else publicly, or know how to actually deal with
11:02
Speaker 1: their emotional intelligence. But regardless, these are real problems, and
11:06
Speaker 1: we look at problems as entertainment. Blue facing his baby
11:09
Speaker 1: mom and the kid like this, keeping problems have become
11:13
Speaker 1: our entertainment.
11:14
Speaker 5: That was kind of the premise of the mental health conversation,
11:19
Speaker 5: and it's it is that you're talking about because they
11:20
Speaker 5: were saying we capitalize on struggle, but nobody talks about solutions.
11:24
Speaker 5: In fact, when solutions are made and solutions are highlighted,
11:27
Speaker 5: everybody does them. Down or push them to the side.
11:29
Speaker 5: We're not really trying to hear that. And so when
11:32
Speaker 5: you talk about the mental effect that that has on you,
11:35
Speaker 5: consistently imagine if you're born into that. And a lot
11:37
Speaker 5: of us are like those things that you're speaking of,
11:39
Speaker 5: like going down the rabbit hole on YouTube. But like
11:42
Speaker 5: I can say, we're guilty of it, everybody, right, Like
11:45
Speaker 5: this is the culture that we But there comes a
11:49
Speaker 5: point in time and I guess a growth inside of
11:52
Speaker 5: somebody that you realize that what am I doing, how
11:56
Speaker 5: is this beneficial?
11:57
Speaker 2: And what can I do with my time other than
12:00
Speaker 2: in this And once you.
12:01
Speaker 5: Figure that part out, then these things become more entertainment
12:05
Speaker 5: for you, like market money becomes more entertainment. Leader these
12:08
Speaker 5: type of things that provide information that can actually change
12:10
Speaker 5: your daily life, that becomes more entertain But everybody doesn't
12:14
Speaker 5: get there, and everybody's not gonna get there at the
12:16
Speaker 5: same time, and some people may never get there, but
12:18
Speaker 5: the people who do, we got to make sure that
12:20
Speaker 5: they get the information.
12:21
Speaker 2: At the highest level.
12:23
Speaker 3: People have PhDs in gossip.
12:25
Speaker 4: That's a fact that's funny as hell, but true.
12:28
Speaker 1: An abundance of street credibility will only leave you bankrupt financially.
12:32
Speaker 1: I've never met anybody that was able to cash in
12:34
Speaker 1: any level of street credibility. So it's like, it's not transferable.
12:40
Speaker 4: That's a good quote.
12:41
Speaker 1: Any financial institution. It's not transferable. It's just not nowhere.
12:46
Speaker 1: It's really not. It's not it's only going.
12:49
Speaker 2: To leave you bankrupt. They might get you a section
12:52
Speaker 2: in the club.
12:53
Speaker 3: That's going to leave you bankrupt. So it's just, you know,
12:56
Speaker 3: once again, I just think that.
12:58
Speaker 4: Okay, I'm going to cut you off, but I'm learning
13:01
Speaker 4: to guess what they're gonna say so we can respond
13:03
Speaker 4: to it in advance. What do you say to all
13:06
Speaker 4: the people? But when you guys entertained rappers who promote
13:08
Speaker 4: this culture, and YadA YadA, and that's why, and that's why,
13:11
Speaker 4: thank you. We have to have to, we have to.
13:15
Speaker 4: This is only the Wu Tang has one of the
13:18
Speaker 4: best line.
13:18
Speaker 1: I think it was the he said mostly the dumb
13:23
Speaker 1: are intrigued by the drum. So what he's saying by that,
13:27
Speaker 1: you know, people always say like nas got bad beats.
13:29
Speaker 1: I never listened to rap music.
13:30
Speaker 4: For beats the lyrics.
13:32
Speaker 1: I only listen for lyrics. But I understand what he
13:34
Speaker 1: was saying. At least that's why he said, mostly the
13:37
Speaker 1: dumb is intrigued by the drum. So once we started
13:40
Speaker 1: getting to the era of beats, that's when hip hop
13:43
Speaker 1: really changed. So now I'm just saying as far as
13:46
Speaker 1: like when you go, I'm gonna when the beat overpowered
13:49
Speaker 1: the lyrics. Beat is important part of the song, for sure,
13:52
Speaker 1: but the lyrics was always the most important part. When
13:54
Speaker 1: the beat became the most important part, this is when
13:55
Speaker 1: mumble rap comes.
13:56
Speaker 3: You don't have to rap. You could just say anything.
13:58
Speaker 1: You just ride the beat or to be So what
14:01
Speaker 1: I'm saying is that now we're in a situation where yeah,
14:05
Speaker 1: we can't fight against a fire with a water gun.
14:09
Speaker 3: It's it's it's just a certain level of intelligence. We
14:11
Speaker 3: have to we have to provide the entertainment for you
14:14
Speaker 3: because if not, you're not gonna listen.
14:16
Speaker 5: Then it's education inside of the entertainment. And that's why
14:18
Speaker 5: it's called editate entertainment. Yeah, that was crazy. Master Kila
14:22
Speaker 5: on Triumphs he said that that's the first time you
14:26
Speaker 5: can't quote it them.
14:27
Speaker 1: You can't feed a baby steak, can't feed the baby
14:30
Speaker 1: steak either. It's you actually end up killing the baby.
14:33
Speaker 1: This is this is wisdom and understanding that there's growth
14:36
Speaker 1: and maturation. So we're still immature as people. We have
14:41
Speaker 1: we have, we have a long way to growing to
14:43
Speaker 1: being mature. So when when a baby is born, you
14:47
Speaker 1: you don't feed it solid foods.
14:49
Speaker 3: You have to feed it apple sauce. You have to
14:51
Speaker 3: feed it, you know, milk.
14:53
Speaker 2: They're gonna be like, no, you can't feed that.
14:55
Speaker 1: I'm just saying an infant. I know that over the
14:57
Speaker 1: course of time. Now this is just serious conversation us. I mean,
15:01
Speaker 1: you got to have a certain level of maturity to
15:03
Speaker 1: even understand, like, you got to be able. If you're
15:05
Speaker 1: immature enough to do that, then you shouldn't be listening.
15:08
Speaker 1: So you have to have a certain around of maturity
15:10
Speaker 1: to even understand what I'm saying. So, it takes time
15:13
Speaker 1: for a baby to grow into a toddler. It takes
15:17
Speaker 1: time for the toddler to grow into a child. It
15:20
Speaker 1: takes time for the child to grow into a teenager,
15:22
Speaker 1: and it takes time for the teenagers to grow into
15:24
Speaker 1: a young adult. It takes time for the young adult
15:26
Speaker 1: to grow into an adult, and it takes time for
15:27
Speaker 1: the adult to grow into a wise person. If you
15:31
Speaker 1: try to force that growth too early, then you'll end
15:35
Speaker 1: up pertingal. You're in the personal. If you try to
15:38
Speaker 1: feed a baby stack, you gonna in the pertenalm if
15:40
Speaker 1: you're if you try to make a five year old
15:42
Speaker 1: drive a car, you're gonna end up pertnalm. If you
15:44
Speaker 1: try to make a twelve year old go out in
15:46
Speaker 1: the world and fin for himself, you're gonna end up
15:48
Speaker 1: pertn them. So as you're as a leader, it's your
15:53
Speaker 1: responsibility to make sure that you're guiding people in the
15:55
Speaker 1: right direction over the course of time in ways that
15:59
Speaker 1: they can understand, in the language that they can understand,
16:02
Speaker 1: and the speed that they can actually keep up with,
16:05
Speaker 1: if not in what we're doing it for.
16:07
Speaker 4: Yeah, but the thing is that we don't have time.
16:10
Speaker 3: Well all we have. Only thing that we have is time.
16:12
Speaker 1: Because if you look at it, it's like we had
16:14
Speaker 1: the conversation with Diddy and he's like, Yo, we gotta
16:17
Speaker 1: make rapid change and give them different things. And he's like, yo,
16:19
Speaker 1: that's not that's not quick enough. Well we got in
16:21
Speaker 1: this situation. This is this isn't even four hundred years slavery.
16:24
Speaker 1: They said four hundred Yet This is actually even longer
16:26
Speaker 1: than that. When you look at the fall of Africa
16:31
Speaker 1: from him all the way to Mali. These is thousands
16:34
Speaker 1: of a year. This white supremacy has been in rule
16:38
Speaker 1: for thousands of years. Yeah, right, So this is something
16:41
Speaker 1: that unfortunately you can't You can't reverse something like that
16:44
Speaker 1: in one year for five years. This is why when
16:47
Speaker 1: Mark Zuckerberg has one hundred year plan, this is important.
16:50
Speaker 1: When CEOs of Japan looking at three or five hundred
16:53
Speaker 1: year plans for that company, that's important. Unfortunately, we are
16:57
Speaker 1: always only thinking about tomorrow and our long term planning
17:01
Speaker 1: is next year.
17:04
Speaker 3: Like Friday, that's our long term planning. You know what
17:06
Speaker 3: I'm saying.
17:07
Speaker 1: But that's not that's not a formula that's sustainable. That
17:11
Speaker 1: might be, that might be beneficial for individual person, but
17:15
Speaker 1: when you look at a collective, we have some we
17:18
Speaker 1: can't even agree on one particular issue, Like there's not
17:21
Speaker 1: one issue that as a collective Black people really agree
17:25
Speaker 1: even even reparations people can't even agree on that.
17:29
Speaker 2: And that analogy this is important.
17:31
Speaker 5: So in that analogy, where would you say that we're
17:33
Speaker 5: at Are we still in the infancy stage or are
17:36
Speaker 5: we looking at our compartmental lives. And what we're saying,
17:39
Speaker 5: this financial revolution is at the infancy stage or as
17:43
Speaker 5: I shouldn't say Black.
17:44
Speaker 2: Culture, but our community. Where would you say that we're at.
17:48
Speaker 5: I guess that over the last decade that would be
17:50
Speaker 5: fair honestly, Yeah, where we are.
17:52
Speaker 1: What you gotta do think we got to be in
17:53
Speaker 1: the infancy stage. We just had the rights to vote
17:57
Speaker 1: sixty years ago. Like we technically wasn't even as equal
18:00
Speaker 1: human beings in this country until recently. So we are
18:06
Speaker 1: just now learning about this financial literacy information that we're providing.
18:10
Speaker 1: It's so revolutionary because the vast majority of people have
18:12
Speaker 1: never even they don't even know anything about it.
18:14
Speaker 3: You never knew about stocks or real estate or let
18:17
Speaker 3: alone private equity, venture capital, so.
18:21
Speaker 5: You know what, you know what's interesting. I'm just going
18:22
Speaker 5: to add to this point of what you're saying is
18:23
Speaker 5: very important. The higher we go and the more people
18:26
Speaker 5: that we meet, let's say up stature and of certain
18:29
Speaker 5: levels of financial freedom, the less knowledge. There's something at
18:35
Speaker 5: the top that have the knowledge. But as we go
18:37
Speaker 5: with meeting people, and I never knew what that was.
18:39
Speaker 5: I never knew what that was. I had no idea
18:41
Speaker 5: Thank you guys. That's why you guys are so important.
18:43
Speaker 5: So it's even interesting as we come because I know
18:45
Speaker 5: that's something Even in the financial planning world. I would
18:48
Speaker 5: meet people of a certain level intelligence, you would think, oh,
18:51
Speaker 5: they should know that, but their discipline is not in finance.
18:55
Speaker 5: Their discipline is in health or it's in medicine, and
18:58
Speaker 5: they didn't have the discipline to know what finances. And
19:00
Speaker 5: so the higher we climb, we're starting to see like
19:03
Speaker 5: this thing is really something that's been absent from a
19:06
Speaker 5: lot of different disciplines.
19:07
Speaker 2: So I've got that I want to.
19:09
Speaker 1: Be fifty year plan They gotta be at least a
19:11
Speaker 1: fifty year planning. This is why it's like, are you
19:12
Speaker 1: start with education? Like you got to understand too. I
19:15
Speaker 1: think Frederick Douglass said it's a lot easier to train
19:19
Speaker 1: I'm paraphrasing it's a lot easier to build strong boys
19:22
Speaker 1: than to rebuild program men. So and that goes for
19:25
Speaker 1: men or women, but I'm just that's what he said.
19:28
Speaker 1: So it's you got to start all right now if
19:30
Speaker 1: we implement this program and it starts with somebody that's
19:34
Speaker 1: five years old now, because even the problem with the
19:37
Speaker 1: five year role is that even if their parents are
19:39
Speaker 1: going to be negative influences. So you got to really
19:42
Speaker 1: it's a whole generation that has to of negativity that
19:45
Speaker 1: has to be replaced before our next generation can even
19:48
Speaker 1: get in a position to teach their children.
19:50
Speaker 5: So this is this becomes the new compounded interests. Right
19:54
Speaker 5: where we look at the time the information is now
19:56
Speaker 5: the rate that we got to look at, Right, they
19:57
Speaker 5: get it at five, at ten, they but then there's
20:01
Speaker 5: a generation that they're going to learn even faster. Yeah,
20:04
Speaker 5: in a sense, that is the compounded interest of the future.
20:07
Speaker 4: But in the investment, you gotta look to threats. Like
20:10
Speaker 4: if she wouldn't have came on, most people wouldn't even
20:12
Speaker 4: known that they're actively fighting. So even when when I
20:15
Speaker 4: bring up the rants and stuff, like I tell people
20:16
Speaker 4: all the time, like there's a reason for AI to
20:18
Speaker 4: get your attention, but there's a message I'm trying to
20:20
Speaker 4: also sneak in even when they have to the conversation
20:23
Speaker 4: about diversity inclusion. And that's why I'll shout out to
20:26
Speaker 4: the cole I to been with JP Morgan next month.
20:29
Speaker 2: I believe.
20:33
Speaker 4: There's a lot of interest in US post George Floyd.
20:36
Speaker 4: But now that that has been eradicated. I've had a
20:39
Speaker 4: couple of talks with some companies and they're like, hey,
20:41
Speaker 4: that was the first thing that got cut, especially with
20:44
Speaker 4: Marcus turnaround, the marketing budget and diversity inclusion. Well, let's
20:48
Speaker 4: do the hell with that. The only part that troubles
20:52
Speaker 4: me is that while we are slow to get off
20:55
Speaker 4: the blocks, those that don't want us to have this information,
20:59
Speaker 4: they're moving really, really really fast to make sure that
21:01
Speaker 4: we don't have it really fast. Gotta move faster, And
21:05
Speaker 4: this is always my point. I never have to tell
21:08
Speaker 4: a guy get the courage to go talk to a girl,
21:11
Speaker 4: go By balenci yaka go By. I never have to
21:13
Speaker 4: push that Nike shit company right now. Infiflation goes up
21:18
Speaker 4: and consumers have less suspend, it won't be a great stock.
21:23
Speaker 4: I don't want to keep talking about the same seven
21:24
Speaker 4: eight companies, but there is a reason why. So I'm
21:28
Speaker 4: gonna be honest and say we have to move faster.
21:30
Speaker 4: Because when I woke up and saw that Charlemagne and
21:33
Speaker 4: Drake post, I saw thousands of comments of commentary and
21:36
Speaker 4: people are right think pieces. And you're not monetizing and
21:39
Speaker 4: making no money.
21:42
Speaker 2: You're obsessed with me, bro.
21:46
Speaker 4: Bro.
21:47
Speaker 3: I mean, but once again, that's their personal thing that
21:49
Speaker 3: they have going on.
21:50
Speaker 4: But why, but why is everybody commenting so much headline?
21:54
Speaker 3: Why is that a headline of trending topic?
22:00
Speaker 5: And what can you do? And it's going to court tomorrow,
22:03
Speaker 5: Let's talk about that. Yes, let's talk about that.
22:07
Speaker 1: I mean, we could just it's human species. Is it
22:09
Speaker 1: always meant for a select group of people to have knowledge,
22:12
Speaker 1: wisn'm to understanding and then the masses of people just
22:14
Speaker 1: to be ignorant. That's how That's how it always has
22:16
Speaker 1: been throughout human civilization. So I think that you might
22:19
Speaker 1: get frustrated when you're trying to uplift the masses and
22:22
Speaker 1: make them enlightened. They don't want to be enlightened. If
22:25
Speaker 1: the vast majority of people, if one hundred thousand people
22:28
Speaker 1: watch market mondays, those are one hundred thousand people that
22:30
Speaker 1: want to get and like if a million, if a
22:33
Speaker 1: three million people is gonna watch academics talking about Chicago
22:37
Speaker 1: Drill and Drake and whoever beef whatever, Charlomagne, then it's
22:45
Speaker 1: hard to really advocate for those three million people because
22:47
Speaker 1: they're making conscious decisions.
22:49
Speaker 2: Mhmm.
22:50
Speaker 1: You could say now they're not educated enough to even
22:52
Speaker 1: make a decision. But at a certain point, it's hard
22:57
Speaker 1: to it's getting increasingly hard hard to make that argument
23:01
Speaker 1: because there's so much access to information. There wasn't always
23:03
Speaker 1: access to information. Back previously it was it was illegal
23:07
Speaker 1: to read. Previously, information was hidden. You didn't even have
23:10
Speaker 1: an opportunity to be educated, so you you were purposely
23:14
Speaker 1: left ignorant. Now it's it's becoming increasingly difficult to have
23:21
Speaker 1: that same level of empathy for adults because at some
23:26
Speaker 1: point you see something on social media and you decide
23:29
Speaker 1: not to watch it. You see something you it's somebody's
23:33
Speaker 1: giving you some level of information at some point, everybody
23:36
Speaker 1: at this point, and you're you're making a decision to
23:39
Speaker 1: be like, nah, that's not for me.
23:41
Speaker 5: The access to information, the barriers a solo at this
23:45
Speaker 5: point that it is a conscious decision that you're making
23:47
Speaker 5: to not be educated straight up there. I don't know
23:51
Speaker 5: how many entrepreneurs that we've spoken to who have become
23:53
Speaker 5: successful who haven't said, I watched you to TV, but
23:58
Speaker 5: prior to earn your leisure right, I watched you.
24:00
Speaker 2: I did this. I was for free, for free, just
24:02
Speaker 2: to learn. I just happened to watch it, or I
24:05
Speaker 2: could watch Bad.
24:06
Speaker 4: Buddies video shout out to beneath a shout out.
24:10
Speaker 2: I'm knocking.
24:11
Speaker 5: Got a bunch of billion viewge videos. But like, these
24:13
Speaker 5: are choices, we're making them.
24:15
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, at what point, what age do you think
24:17
Speaker 4: we should make the cut off from being entertained to
24:21
Speaker 4: learning to make our lives better.
24:25
Speaker 3: It's difficult.
24:26
Speaker 4: What would you tell your son, Let's say that.
24:28
Speaker 3: I mean, you got to understand certain level.
24:30
Speaker 1: It's hard to for me personally, I was I never
24:33
Speaker 1: I was always on that my whole entire life.
24:36
Speaker 3: I always was on I was I always obviously listen
24:39
Speaker 3: to music. I listen.
24:40
Speaker 1: I'm in the culture, so I'm not like a you know,
24:42
Speaker 1: a monk, but I was always I always had a
24:44
Speaker 1: more serious demeanor since I was young.
24:48
Speaker 3: I always was on that type of time.
24:49
Speaker 1: Like I read Rich Da Boy Dad when I was seventeen,
24:51
Speaker 1: eighteen years old, Like that was like a whole you know,
24:54
Speaker 1: Bible for me. As far as education is concerned, that's
24:57
Speaker 1: probably like what a lot of fifty year old don't know.
25:00
Speaker 1: But even before that, I was always interested. I was
25:03
Speaker 1: interested in stocks, I was interested in business, you know,
25:07
Speaker 1: it's you know that somebody's making money. That's how I
25:11
Speaker 1: always look at like somebody's making money, so I'm interested
25:13
Speaker 1: to know who's making money, and then how can I
25:15
Speaker 1: make money? So to answer your question, it's difficult, I think,
25:21
Speaker 1: you know, because you can't have those same level of
25:23
Speaker 1: expectations for kids.
25:24
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I think there's an intersection.
25:29
Speaker 5: I think what makes us unique, and I think it's
25:31
Speaker 5: what's made us unique since we were younger, was that
25:33
Speaker 5: we were able to find information inside of the entertainment.
25:37
Speaker 5: I think we got this. Yeah, I think we would
25:40
Speaker 5: have the ability to decode some of the messages. I
25:44
Speaker 5: think we were able to break down and have, you know,
25:47
Speaker 5: a common understanding when it came to music, especially when
25:51
Speaker 5: it came to sports, it was yes, this is entertainment,
25:53
Speaker 5: but yes this is business.
25:55
Speaker 2: Why do you get this contract? Who's who's his advisor?
25:59
Speaker 2: Who's his age?
26:00
Speaker 4: Like?
26:00
Speaker 5: Those are the kind of conversations that we were having,
26:02
Speaker 5: on top of having the ones that obviously in the barbershop,
26:06
Speaker 5: you know when you're in school, so you can't alienate
26:09
Speaker 5: them from it because there's lessons to be learned inside
26:12
Speaker 5: of it. We had the conversation with Lauren, and she
26:15
Speaker 5: was talking about roadblocks and like, there's an intersection there,
26:17
Speaker 5: and we've said just plenty of times, yes, kids enjoyed,
26:21
Speaker 5: let's meet the winner at let's tell them that this
26:23
Speaker 5: is a publicly traded company.
26:24
Speaker 2: So it's just about finding the intersections.
26:26
Speaker 5: I don't think we can cut off the age and say,
26:28
Speaker 5: you know what at thirteen, you know longer watching this.
26:30
Speaker 5: Can you put time restrictions on some of it?
26:32
Speaker 2: Yeah?
26:33
Speaker 5: Can you incorporate education inside of some of it, of course,
26:36
Speaker 5: and then you're going to have the real world experiences
26:38
Speaker 5: that you can provide for them as well.
26:40
Speaker 2: So I think it's a mixture.
26:41
Speaker 5: I don't think it's a cutoff because had that been
26:43
Speaker 5: cut off for me and I can maybe I could
26:46
Speaker 5: speak for him as well.
26:47
Speaker 2: I don't know where we would be without music. I
26:49
Speaker 2: don't know where we would be without sports.
26:51
Speaker 1: I mean, I just said it's the last thing I'll
26:52
Speaker 1: say about this. I just don't understand how you don't
26:54
Speaker 1: want to just take your life serious. And like I said,
26:56
Speaker 1: even for me, it wasn't like I was in business
26:57
Speaker 1: my whole life. When I was playing basketball, like that's
26:59
Speaker 1: what I was doing all day. I was going to
27:01
Speaker 1: I was trying to better myself because I felt like
27:03
Speaker 1: that was a pathway to me. Never I never was
27:07
Speaker 1: a gamer. Not not to knock that, but I'm just
27:09
Speaker 1: saying that's not what I was doing. I was never
27:11
Speaker 1: a gamer. I was never somebody that was just smoking
27:14
Speaker 1: weed like I. Of course you get introduced to that
27:18
Speaker 1: and that's a decision that's easy to make. But I
27:20
Speaker 1: was always serious, Like I always was serious about my life,
27:22
Speaker 1: like I want to do something I want I want
27:24
Speaker 1: to just be a regular person. I want to be
27:26
Speaker 1: a special person. So I don't understand how you can
27:29
Speaker 1: just have so much complacency. It's just it's difficult for
27:34
Speaker 1: me to comprehend because it's just so much serious stuff
27:37
Speaker 1: that's going on. Like I said, no matter what you
27:39
Speaker 1: want to do, like whatever you want to do with
27:41
Speaker 1: your life, you only get one shot at it. So
27:44
Speaker 1: why would you not take it serious? Like why would
27:46
Speaker 1: you get an opportunity to breathe every single day?
27:50
Speaker 3: It's a blessing?
27:51
Speaker 2: Is that the defense mechanism that kicks in? Right?
27:54
Speaker 5: If I pretend that does not happening, If ignor that's
27:57
Speaker 5: what it is, that's not happening because my life is
28:00
Speaker 5: there's so much real happening in my life that I
28:02
Speaker 5: need to be distracted by the realness of it.
28:04
Speaker 2: Now you feel like it's a mechanism.
28:05
Speaker 3: I don't know if it's a defense mechanism.
28:07
Speaker 1: You think that it's just a it's a thing where
28:09
Speaker 1: people don't have that same level of urgency. Like I said,
28:13
Speaker 1: if you look at it from a standpoint of like
28:14
Speaker 1: it's a blessing. You're actually blessed to be able to walk,
28:18
Speaker 1: stand up and breathe. That's a blessing. There's a lot
28:21
Speaker 1: of people that are incarcerated, there's a lot of people
28:24
Speaker 1: that's dead. There's a lot of people that aren't physically
28:26
Speaker 1: able to even operate or mentally able to operate. So
28:30
Speaker 1: if you have a sound mind and a sound body,
28:33
Speaker 1: that's that's a blessing. I think it's disrespectful to just
28:36
Speaker 1: take that blessing and just do nothing with your life
28:39
Speaker 1: or do minimum amount.
28:41
Speaker 3: Everybody.
28:41
Speaker 1: Everybody has the ability to be great in certain areas.
28:44
Speaker 1: So you could be the best carpenter, you could be
28:46
Speaker 1: the best investor. Like they said, the master investor, what
28:49
Speaker 1: is he gonna say? The average investor? Like, why would
28:52
Speaker 1: you say? Why would you why would you strive for mediocrity?
28:57
Speaker 1: Like we say we're the biggest, what we're supposed to
28:59
Speaker 1: say with the smallest, Like people get offended at or
29:02
Speaker 1: they say they arrogant. They saying he's arrogant. He's saying
29:05
Speaker 1: he's a master investor, Like well, what are you saying
29:08
Speaker 1: you're you're your best thing?
29:09
Speaker 4: Because why weren't you putting out the information before I
29:12
Speaker 4: did it? They drugged me on. I didn't even want
29:15
Speaker 4: to be show my face on camera. They're like, no,
29:16
Speaker 4: you gotta like if you're gona do a YouTube show,
29:18
Speaker 4: you gotta put up a camera. You should have made
29:22
Speaker 4: two tech and that never show your face killing last year.
29:29
Speaker 4: But it's like even when I put up that post,
29:31
Speaker 4: shout out to my Guyso I was like, yo, stand
29:34
Speaker 4: aside for two years. That's a small sacrifice. Like when
29:37
Speaker 4: I asked Kyrie like how long were you playing to
29:39
Speaker 4: get to the league, He's like, bro, what you mean
29:42
Speaker 4: every day since age? That's what I dreamed about When
29:45
Speaker 4: I met Kyrie. He was doing Trooper thread in front
29:47
Speaker 4: of me and I'm like, I ain't playing, I ain't
29:49
Speaker 4: not sold from a butter friend. You got me, I
29:51
Speaker 4: can hur you what It shows the level of passion.
29:57
Speaker 4: And the thing that we're really trying to convey is
29:59
Speaker 4: like you have to have passion for something every day,
30:04
Speaker 4: you have to get after it. Even when we were
30:06
Speaker 4: traveling around, these are still our talks. Yeah, your one life,
30:12
Speaker 4: you choose, And this is what I will say for
30:13
Speaker 4: everybody who goes outside all the time, who parties a lot,
30:17
Speaker 4: and y'all, like, I'm seeing a bunch of people looking
30:20
Speaker 4: like they're happy when they're out. When I see you
30:22
Speaker 4: in real life, you look miserable. It's better to have
30:27
Speaker 4: the real life that you're really happy about when you
30:29
Speaker 4: don't got a post, than to pretend like you're posting
30:32
Speaker 4: for somebody else's media. And I'm telling you like this,
30:35
Speaker 4: the media that you're posting on don't make that much
30:37
Speaker 4: money for the people who own the media.
30:39
Speaker 1: The last thing I want to say about this because
30:40
Speaker 1: you brought up a good point and I've been meaning
30:42
Speaker 1: to talk about this for a while because we spend
30:43
Speaker 1: a lot of time in Atlanta and we go out
30:45
Speaker 1: all the time. But I think a celebration is meant
30:49
Speaker 1: to celebrate something. So when Drake said, drink it every night,
30:52
Speaker 1: because we drink some my accomplishments. There's some truth to that,
30:55
Speaker 1: right he actually has he can actually celebrate every single
30:58
Speaker 1: night because he's worked hard enough to put himself in
30:59
Speaker 1: a position and financially where it's not hurting them. And
31:01
Speaker 1: then also he's earned his leisure on that certain level.
31:05
Speaker 1: How many black businesses do we need for night clubs
31:08
Speaker 1: and we're not even owning the nightclubs or bars or
31:10
Speaker 1: hookah lounges, And how many parties can we have?
31:13
Speaker 3: Right?
31:14
Speaker 1: How many? Like it's every single day. It's a variety
31:17
Speaker 1: of different options to celebrate. And this is globally. When
31:22
Speaker 1: we went to Lagos, Nigeria, when we went to Jamaica,
31:27
Speaker 1: black people party at unprecedented levels. This might go back
31:33
Speaker 1: to a thing of like suppressing the pain because you
31:36
Speaker 1: know that financially globally, we're in the last place globally,
31:40
Speaker 1: so everybody's not rich. Everybody that's buying these bottles can't
31:43
Speaker 1: afford these bottles. So is it a thing of just saying, like,
31:47
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna just have fun in this moment, because I.
31:49
Speaker 3: Know when I wake up tomorrow is back to you know, pain.
31:53
Speaker 1: At some point we got it like and like I said,
31:56
Speaker 1: I have fun I'll go to clubs all the time.
31:59
Speaker 1: But I'm just a pattern with this where this has
32:03
Speaker 1: become an industry once again, going back, we don't even
32:06
