- 1:21Speaker 2: All right, guys, welcome back e y L at L edition.
- 1:25Speaker 2: Another one, another one, another other one. So for over
- 1:28Speaker 2: eighteen months, this is one of been been one of
- 1:31Speaker 2: the premiere topics that have we been been requested for.
- 1:34Speaker 2: And we actually gonna give you a double dose of
- 1:36Speaker 2: two of the top topics that one we've covered briefly
- 1:40Speaker 2: and one we have not covered yet at all.
- 1:42Speaker 3: Sure, four X, that's the elephant in the room.
- 1:46Speaker 2: I hope you're not listening.
- 1:47Speaker 1: That's a elephant in the room by four X. Man,
- 1:50Speaker 1: it expands us.
- 1:52Speaker 2: It's a very controversial situation. Man, either you love it
- 1:56Speaker 2: or you hate it, but us during Alesia, we just
- 1:59Speaker 2: had to provide information and four X, no matter how
- 2:03Speaker 2: you feel about it, you can't deny that it is
- 2:06Speaker 2: the biggest market in the world, Bigger than the credit market.
- 2:11Speaker 2: Credit market is number two, four X is foreign exchange
- 2:13Speaker 2: currency is number one. So it's a huge, huge, huge marketplace.
- 2:19Speaker 2: A lot of people, uh day trade for X, invest
- 2:22Speaker 2: in four X, make money in for X. So it's
- 2:25Speaker 2: a viable investment option as well, and it's something that's
- 2:28Speaker 2: been around for a long period of time and it's
- 2:30Speaker 2: not going anywhere because currencies aren't going anywhere. But if
- 2:32Speaker 2: it does change and currencies change, it'll go more digital
- 2:38Speaker 2: in the world of crypto currency, which we'll talk about
- 2:42Speaker 2: today also, So we're gonna give you a double dose,
- 2:44Speaker 2: so four X and crypto. So this is going to
- 2:46Speaker 2: be an epic episode. We got the right guy, we do.
- 2:49Speaker 2: We the right So Justin Owens has established himself as
- 2:53Speaker 2: an expert in both fields, and we actually met him
- 2:59Speaker 2: through who's the first person, I think, Alex Alex Alex
- 3:02Speaker 2: shout to Alex. Good energy, that's a fact got so
- 3:06Speaker 2: you know, out in the Atlanta they got the whole
- 3:08Speaker 2: circle of CEOs. Shout out to the whole crew, and
- 3:13Speaker 2: Justin is definitely a part of the circle CEO. So
- 3:15Speaker 2: we met him and just established the relationship with him,
- 3:17Speaker 2: and you know, super super cool dude, extremely knowledgeable, and
- 3:21Speaker 2: when I was talking to him, I realized that, you know,
- 3:24Speaker 2: all investing is pretty much very similar. So he's explaining
- 3:26Speaker 2: to me how he's doing technical analysis with four X
- 3:29Speaker 2: and it's the same thing that we know with stocks,
- 3:31Speaker 2: the same indicators, all of that stuff, and even on crypto,
- 3:35Speaker 2: a lot of it is and we know crypto, but
- 3:37Speaker 2: it's synonymous with you know, investing in stocks next to
- 3:41Speaker 2: that nature. So he was the perfect person to have
- 3:45Speaker 2: this conversation. So I'm excited about it. So first and foremost,
- 3:49Speaker 2: thank you for joining us.
- 3:49Speaker 5: Appreciate it, and I appreciate you all for having me
- 3:52Speaker 5: about it. You know what I'm saying.
- 3:53Speaker 3: Yeah, we hit him up, like, yo, man, you want
- 3:55Speaker 3: to come on the show, I'd be honor. I was like,
- 3:59Speaker 3: let's do it. Just let's do it.
- 4:02Speaker 2: Man.
- 4:02Speaker 6: I love what y'all been doing for the community, the culture,
- 4:04Speaker 6: you know, and leveraging your platform to give people access
- 4:08Speaker 6: to people they can normally touch, like you know, the
- 4:10Speaker 6: Mark Cuban joint that you just had, Like everybody can't
- 4:12Speaker 6: sit down and have a conversation, but y'all didn't keep
- 4:14Speaker 6: it to yourself. You shared it with the world, and
- 4:16Speaker 6: I think that's why you all continue to get blessed
- 4:18Speaker 6: because not only you're doing something for you know, obviously
- 4:21Speaker 6: it's something for your families and for yourself, but now
- 4:22Speaker 6: you're impacting so many more people. So you know, they
- 4:25Speaker 6: say impact before income. You guys are making a big
- 4:27Speaker 6: den So I appreciate you guys.
- 4:29Speaker 2: Thank you, brother, appreciate it. So let's jump right into it.
- 4:32Speaker 2: It's four X. What is for X For people that
- 4:35Speaker 2: might not be familiar, they only see the spam comments
- 4:38Speaker 2: on Instagram.
- 4:39Speaker 5: Yeah, believe it or not. You know, most people have
- 4:41Speaker 5: participated in it. You know, foreign exchange.
- 4:44Speaker 6: The foreign exchange market is the largest financial market in
- 4:46Speaker 6: the world. But if you're ever going to a different country,
- 4:48Speaker 6: you know, Europe, Australia, Mexico, you typically have to trade
- 4:51Speaker 6: your country's currency for that country's currency. That's foreign exchange.
- 4:55Speaker 6: What we show people how to do is instead of
- 4:57Speaker 6: you having to go to these different countries and physically
- 4:59Speaker 6: hold the currency as long as you got to sell phone, laptop, computer,
- 5:03Speaker 6: whatever the case may be, you can actually trade for
- 5:05Speaker 6: in exchange literally as long as you got internet. So
- 5:07Speaker 6: what we show people how to do is make those
- 5:10Speaker 6: similar type of trades like going to Canada and all
- 5:12Speaker 6: these other places.
- 5:13Speaker 5: But you know, laptop computer, you can make the same trade.
- 5:17Speaker 1: What has been the cause for the frenzy over the
- 5:19Speaker 1: past five years, I feel like out of nowhere. I mean,
- 5:21Speaker 1: it's as existed, like you said, for a long time,
- 5:24Speaker 1: over the past five to seven years.
- 5:26Speaker 3: It's like the number one thing people want to talk about.
- 5:29Speaker 5: So good question. It's a couple of reasons.
- 5:31Speaker 6: Number one, up until a few years ago, to trade
- 5:34Speaker 6: for X used to have to have a three million
- 5:35Speaker 6: dollar networth, and to start your trading account used to
- 5:39Speaker 6: have to have a one hundred thousand dollars to open it.
- 5:40Speaker 6: So it was only a wealthy man and wealthy women's game.
- 5:43Speaker 6: So a lot of people that are wealthy, they know
- 5:45Speaker 6: about it. They're like, Okay, I know what for exists?
- 5:47Speaker 6: Whow we just started talking about it, right, And I
- 5:49Speaker 6: just say myself, right, is that you know, you had
- 5:52Speaker 6: something called retail brokers that opened up, So now the
- 5:56Speaker 6: qualifications wasn't so high like you get like today, you
- 5:59Speaker 6: can start a trading account with ten to fifty dollars,
- 6:02Speaker 6: So now the barriers to get in the game is
- 6:04Speaker 6: a totally different game. Now you can start with fifty
- 6:07Speaker 6: dollars account, one hundred dollar account, and you can grow
- 6:09Speaker 6: that to a few thousand, as opposed to you know,
- 6:12Speaker 6: if I wanted to get into it ten years ago,
- 6:14Speaker 6: fifteen years ago, I would have to have three million
- 6:16Speaker 6: dollar networth, which is it easy? And then one hundred
- 6:19Speaker 6: thousand I want to put in there. And then on
- 6:21Speaker 6: top of that, it was really expensive to learn how
- 6:24Speaker 6: to trade. So like you have people like Robert Kiyosaki.
- 6:26Speaker 6: He has a course that will teach people how to trade,
- 6:28Speaker 6: but it's anywhere from forty to fifty fifty.
- 6:30Speaker 5: Five thousand dollars.
- 6:31Speaker 6: So even if I met the qualify, even if it
- 6:34Speaker 6: was ten to fifty dollars to get started, if I
- 6:35Speaker 6: didn't have that large amount of money to get into it,
- 6:38Speaker 6: I'm still not going to invest into it. Well, now
- 6:40Speaker 6: you got you know, people on social media, you can
- 6:42Speaker 6: get started for a few thousand dollars in their courses
- 6:44Speaker 6: hours a couple hundred dollars that people can actually learn
- 6:46Speaker 6: how to trade. So it's the barrier's entry to the
- 6:49Speaker 6: investing side and then the educational side that's made it
- 6:53Speaker 6: more of a frenzy. And then you know, you're adding
- 6:55Speaker 6: a piece where people can get paid to referred. I
- 6:57Speaker 6: think you kind of you read off of this, you know,
- 7:01Speaker 6: So it's uh, it's been it's been a unique combination,
- 7:03Speaker 6: but it's been special because in the midst of it,
- 7:05Speaker 6: I would say you know, being a part of it.
- 7:08Speaker 6: There are people that I would say market it the
- 7:09Speaker 6: wrong way. They market it like, hey, you come over here,
- 7:11Speaker 6: you get rich, you learn how to trade, And that's
- 7:13Speaker 6: not true. You do have to put in time to
- 7:15Speaker 6: learn how to trade and invest. But man, if you
- 7:17Speaker 6: take the time to really learn it and not trying
- 7:19Speaker 6: to get rich, tomorrow is very profitable.
- 7:21Speaker 2: So all right, so let's let's step into it. So,
- 7:23Speaker 2: all right, four x trading. You explained to me that
- 7:26Speaker 2: you have to trade four x in pairs. Can you
- 7:29Speaker 2: talk about that? Yeah?
- 7:30Speaker 6: Absolutely, So to kind of pull back, right, So the
- 7:33Speaker 6: foreign exchange market, you know, we talked about us anywhere
- 7:35Speaker 6: from five point three to six point six trillion dollars,
- 7:38Speaker 6: all right, so by far it's not even up for debate.
- 7:40Speaker 6: It's the largest financial market in the world, the like
- 7:43Speaker 6: the United States. The stock exchange is like twenty two
- 7:47Speaker 6: billion dollars a day, so it's really really big. So
- 7:49Speaker 6: what you're doing is you have the entire worldwide economy
- 7:53Speaker 6: of countries that you're really trading for or again, that's
- 7:57Speaker 6: really what's happened. It's just another form of trading. Like
- 7:59Speaker 6: at the beginning, we had bartering, so you had you know,
- 8:02Speaker 6: if you had some wool, you had a painting. I'm
- 8:04Speaker 6: trying to figure out how to get your painting. We
- 8:05Speaker 6: figure out a way to exchange things. Well, now the
- 8:07Speaker 6: whole world has said, okay, you know what, We're basically
- 8:10Speaker 6: gonna go off of a standard note, and so everybody's
- 8:13Speaker 6: agreed to it. For the most part, most countries have
- 8:15Speaker 6: agreed to it. So now when you're trading in the
- 8:17Speaker 6: foreign exchange market, stocks is when you're trading the evaluations
- 8:21Speaker 6: of companies foreign exchange. I'm looking at countries, so I'm
- 8:25Speaker 6: looking at the economy of the United States. I'm looking
- 8:27Speaker 6: at like what's going on with Brexit and stuff like
- 8:29Speaker 6: that. That affects the British pound, that affects the uro ow
- 8:32Speaker 6: and so there's a lot of things that are happening.
- 8:33Speaker 6: So when I'm trading let's say, for instance, the Australian
- 8:37Speaker 6: dollar versus the euro, I mean the United States Dollar
- 8:40Speaker 6: a U D USD. Well, what I'm saying is, if
- 8:43Speaker 6: I go on to buy, I believe the Australian dollar
- 8:45Speaker 6: is going to be stronger than the US dollar this
- 8:48Speaker 6: period of time.
- 8:48Speaker 5: So every time you enter a.
- 8:49Speaker 6: Trade you're buying and or selling another currency at the
- 8:53Speaker 6: same time.
- 8:54Speaker 2: So it's like, all right, I'm gonna do the Australian
- 8:57Speaker 2: dollar and the US dollar for lack of a better word,
- 9:02Speaker 2: betting that the Australian dollar will outpace the US dollar
- 9:06Speaker 2: today correct in that period of time, and if that
- 9:10Speaker 2: happens today, I make money. If the US dollar outpaces
- 9:13Speaker 2: the Australian dollar today, I lose money.
- 9:16Speaker 5: Correct.
- 9:16Speaker 6: But it's not even just today. It could be like
- 9:17Speaker 6: you could be in a trade for a few minutes.
- 9:19Speaker 6: You can be in there for a few hours. You
- 9:20Speaker 6: can I mean, people hold trades for months, you know,
- 9:22Speaker 6: swing traders. So it really just depends on the time
- 9:25Speaker 6: period that you're going to be trading in.
- 9:27Speaker 5: You know that you can actually be able to make money.
- 9:29Speaker 6: But the thing is, if I say, you know, I
- 9:30Speaker 6: believe the US dollars is gonna get stronger and it
- 9:32Speaker 6: gets weaker, well I'm gonna lose money. But it's the
- 9:35Speaker 6: same principle that we talk about with trading, Like when
- 9:37Speaker 6: we're traveling, So let's say we go to Europe. When
- 9:41Speaker 6: you go to the country, when we're traveling, we're not
- 9:43Speaker 6: really paying attention. It's like Okay, give me a thousand
- 9:45Speaker 6: dollars and give me whatever that is in this country's currency.
- 9:47Speaker 6: And then when you leave the country, you either the
- 9:51Speaker 6: country's currency is either gone up or going down. That's
- 9:53Speaker 6: why when you go to the foreign exchange booth at
- 9:54Speaker 6: the airport, y'all, notice that the value is always changing.
- 9:57Speaker 6: It's not sitting. It's always changing. Currency is always moving.
- 10:01Speaker 6: So when you have those movements in the market, we're
- 10:03Speaker 6: able to make money on those movements, just like you
- 10:05Speaker 6: would traveling, except for now don't have to travel to
- 10:08Speaker 6: Europe or travel to Canada to make that profit.
- 10:10Speaker 5: I can do it from my home.
- 10:11Speaker 1: So in terms of time, right, because I'm thinking right
- 10:15Speaker 1: Far East Asia, obviously the economy starts with four hours.
- 10:20Speaker 1: How do you supplement for that, right, Because if it's
- 10:23Speaker 1: daytime there, it's probably midnight here. How are we factoring
- 10:26Speaker 1: that into the equation.
- 10:27Speaker 6: You have different trading times, like the market is open,
- 10:31Speaker 6: so you have the Tokyo session, the Australian session, you
- 10:34Speaker 6: have the London session, which is one of the biggest,
- 10:36Speaker 6: actually the biggest, and then you have the New York
- 10:38Speaker 6: session that's the United States Seestion session.
- 10:41Speaker 5: So all of these sessions.
- 10:42Speaker 6: Each country is moving at different times, and so that's
- 10:46Speaker 6: the cool part about trading for X. It's twenty four
- 10:48Speaker 6: hours a day, five days a week, so as opposed
- 10:51Speaker 6: to like my trade stocks as well. You know, if
- 10:54Speaker 6: I'm not available from nine to basically four thirty five o'clock,
- 10:57Speaker 6: I can't trade it as opposed to four X. If
- 11:00Speaker 6: I'm a night out, well maybe I want to trade
- 11:02Speaker 6: the Tokyo session, you know, maybe I want to trade
- 11:04Speaker 6: the Australian session. And then you know, like the London
- 11:07Speaker 6: session starts at our time about three am, So if
- 11:09Speaker 6: a person wants to trade that, then they want to
- 11:11Speaker 6: wake They got to wake up at three am in
- 11:13Speaker 6: the East Coast time to be able to trade that.
- 11:15Speaker 6: So it really depends upon what time of day that
- 11:18Speaker 6: your most I tell people that you're most productive. But
- 11:21Speaker 6: once you find a currency period that you really rock
- 11:23Speaker 6: with and you really understand how it works, I.
- 11:25Speaker 5: Tell people, stick with it.
- 11:26Speaker 6: You only need two or three currency payers to really
- 11:28Speaker 6: understand how they move, to understand how to be able
- 11:31Speaker 6: to make money, similar to stocks, like you know, there's
- 11:33Speaker 6: certain options. I'm sure you guys know, I know how
- 11:35Speaker 6: this moves. And then whence you understand how it moves, like, okay, cool,
- 11:38Speaker 6: let me just follow this. All right, it's pulled back here,
- 11:40Speaker 6: but I know there's another opportunity for me to buy.
- 11:43Speaker 6: So because I've been following it so long, I'm not
- 11:45Speaker 6: freaking out about movements in the market.
- 11:47Speaker 1: So if I like the time, if I'm like the
- 11:48Speaker 1: British pound and waking up at three am, I'm fighting
- 11:51Speaker 1: a trading pair at that time to actually say, all right,
- 11:55Speaker 1: I'm staying in this market for the day or the
- 11:56Speaker 1: minute of the hour or whatever.
- 11:57Speaker 6: Okay, yeah, And the best time is to really traders
- 12:00Speaker 6: when you have like an overlap of markets, So when
- 12:03Speaker 6: you have the London session overlapped and overlapping with the
- 12:07Speaker 6: New York session like the United.
- 12:08Speaker 1: States overlapping meaning open versus closing, verse open, open and
- 12:12Speaker 1: open open and the same time.
- 12:14Speaker 6: Because remember this is the world wide market of money,
- 12:16Speaker 6: so that means all these countries over here that's doing business.
- 12:19Speaker 6: Everything that has to happen, Like even when the government
- 12:21Speaker 6: has to buy something from another country, they got to
- 12:23Speaker 6: exchange the currency first. So everything that has to happen
- 12:26Speaker 6: with the worldwide economy, they have to This is this
- 12:29Speaker 6: is where they have to play at. So now like
- 12:31Speaker 6: if if Australia's open and let's say London is not,
- 12:35Speaker 6: well it's not that much going on because it's only them, right,
- 12:38Speaker 6: But when you got the United States open, you got
- 12:41Speaker 6: London open at the same time, where there's a ton
- 12:43Speaker 6: of movement that's happening in the market.
- 12:45Speaker 2: So that's interesting in people might not be familiar that
- 12:48Speaker 2: actually currencies do fluctuate. But like you said, if you
- 12:51Speaker 2: go to that booth in the airport, or if you
- 12:54Speaker 2: just watch the booth and you see those numbers, it's
- 12:56Speaker 2: not like it's moving like stocks like up and down,
- 12:59Speaker 2: like you know, crazy amounts, but those little it might
- 13:03Speaker 2: be you know, a tenth of one percent.
- 13:05Speaker 5: Yeah, pips, that's what we call this movements in the market. Yeah,
- 13:07Speaker 5: so that's how we calculate movement in the market.
- 13:11Speaker 6: And then your lot size, that's your risk, that's determines
- 13:14Speaker 6: how much money you're gonna be making per pip.
- 13:17Speaker 2: So explain the pips and lot size.
- 13:19Speaker 6: So a pip is just basically the movement. So it's
- 13:22Speaker 6: a little bit different. But if you if you looked
- 13:24Speaker 6: at a chart like a four x shart, you would
- 13:25Speaker 6: have like a price that's gonna be talking about like
- 13:28Speaker 6: the main pair, right, and then as that is that
- 13:30Speaker 6: fluctuates in the.
- 13:31Speaker 5: Market, is it moves, that's the pip.
- 13:33Speaker 6: That's its just how we calculate movement in the market pips.
- 13:36Speaker 2: Like for stock market, they call basis points, which is
- 13:39Speaker 2: a point of one percent correct, So like if it
- 13:42Speaker 2: moves one basis point, that's point that's one percent of
- 13:46Speaker 2: one percent correct. So if it's ten basis points is
- 13:49Speaker 2: point ten? Is it similar to that?
- 13:51Speaker 6: Yeah, that would kind of get into like the lot size, right,
- 13:54Speaker 6: So because like now like yeah, I guess it moves
- 13:57Speaker 6: by a certain amount of pips. So you can have
- 13:58Speaker 6: one hundred pit move, you can have a thousand pit moves.
- 14:00Speaker 6: When you say, when you hear people say that they're
- 14:03Speaker 6: talking about the movement in the market, but that doesn't
- 14:05Speaker 6: mean like, like let's say on cryptocurrency, bitcoin may move
- 14:09Speaker 6: a thousand pips, but it may have only dropped a
- 14:12Speaker 6: couple of dollars in real life, because it's just different
- 14:15Speaker 6: movement in the market.
- 14:18Speaker 1: Now, I will say it sounds similar to ticks in
- 14:21Speaker 1: the future's market. Yeah, I think that was equal to
- 14:23Speaker 1: like one cent or something like that. So it sounds
- 14:25Speaker 1: like pretty similar.
- 14:26Speaker 6: And then your lot size is just you have like
- 14:30Speaker 6: a point zero one, so that's like ten cents a lot, right,
- 14:34Speaker 6: then you have a.
- 14:36Speaker 5: Yeah point one and then that's.
- 14:37Speaker 6: That's a dollar a lot, and then you have a
- 14:40Speaker 6: standard lot, which a lot of people want to try
- 14:42Speaker 6: to get to.
- 14:42Speaker 5: That's like a one point zero.
- 14:43Speaker 6: So if that that's telling you, based on the lot size,
- 14:47Speaker 6: how much money is going to be made on that
- 14:49Speaker 6: move based on what you put in. So even if
- 14:51Speaker 6: I had a ten thousand dollars account, but I only
- 14:54Speaker 6: said I want to make a dollar per pip, if
- 14:58Speaker 6: it moves one hundred pips, I made hundred dollars. But
- 15:01Speaker 6: if I would have been on that same trade and
- 15:03Speaker 6: said I want to make ten dollars a pip, well,
- 15:05Speaker 6: then I would have made what is that one thousand
- 15:06Speaker 6: dollars on that same trade. So it's not just the
- 15:09Speaker 6: trade that's happening, it's also the risk that you set
- 15:12Speaker 6: up on that particular trade.
- 15:13Speaker 2: So what the what's something like all right, if you
- 15:15Speaker 2: want to start trading, what's the format, Like, what's the platform.
- 15:19Speaker 5: That medi traded for?
- 15:20Speaker 6: It's a few of them, I mean meditrade for is
- 15:22Speaker 6: what a lot of people use Trading View is a
- 15:25Speaker 6: good place to look at charts. If you want to
- 15:26Speaker 6: be independent of a company, like you know where you
- 15:29Speaker 6: could just look at it yourself. You could do that
- 15:31Speaker 6: as well, but you've got to have a broker that
- 15:33Speaker 6: you're going to be attached to.
- 15:35Speaker 5: So it's a ton of brokers out there.
- 15:37Speaker 6: I tell people just choose a reputable one because you
- 15:39Speaker 6: know there's scam brokers as well too. That's one of
- 15:41Speaker 6: the benefits to having like stocks because you don't have
- 15:43Speaker 6: to worry about somebody just you know, there's things that
- 15:46Speaker 6: regulate the market right well four X. If you don't
- 15:49Speaker 6: have a reputable broker, you could be in the trade
- 15:51Speaker 6: and they said, hey, you know you you look at
- 15:53Speaker 6: the chart and you won, but they're like, no, we
- 15:55Speaker 6: got to spread and you lost. And that happens sometimes
- 15:57Speaker 6: in the market. That's why you want to try to
- 15:59Speaker 6: find like reputable brokers. And then once you get a
- 16:01Speaker 6: reputable broker, then what you want to do is you
- 16:03Speaker 6: want to connect it to your medi trader, for that's
- 16:05Speaker 6: where you're going to really execute your trades. So what'dra
- 16:07Speaker 6: four it's just a it's a platform for you to
- 16:09Speaker 6: be to execute your trades. So it also has charts,
- 16:11Speaker 6: but most people normally mark it up on like Trading
- 16:14Speaker 6: View or some other like charting software, and then you
- 16:16Speaker 6: just execute your trades from either your phone or your
- 16:19Speaker 6: laptop there. So that's where that's where it's kind of
- 16:21Speaker 6: like a almost like an e trade, except for it's
- 16:23Speaker 6: not the broker as well. So it's like you find
- 16:26Speaker 6: somebody that the broker that you're going to enter the
- 16:28Speaker 6: trades through meditradeor four allows you to execute those trades
- 16:31Speaker 6: for yourself.
- 16:32Speaker 1: So for a lot a long time, especially documenting, people
- 16:34Speaker 1: felt like for us is illegal and I'm wondering now
- 16:37Speaker 1: obviously we know it's not, but what role do government
- 16:40Speaker 1: banks play?
- 16:40Speaker 2: Right?
- 16:41Speaker 1: Because if the currencies drop when they be trying to
- 16:43Speaker 1: purchase them, like, what role are they having.
- 16:45Speaker 6: They're one of the big players in the market. So
- 16:47Speaker 6: you've got I mean, it's a lot of players in
- 16:48Speaker 6: the market. You got governments, you got banks, the other
- 16:52Speaker 6: financial institutions, hedge funds, believe it or not, a lot
- 16:54Speaker 6: of hedge funds actually trade for it.
- 16:56Speaker 3: I saw that one.
- 16:58Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, Like if you look at
- 16:59Speaker 6: like show billions, a lot of people watch a lot
- 17:02Speaker 6: of stuff they're trade Like you look at truck Okay,
- 17:03Speaker 6: they're really trading for It's if you look at the
- 17:05Speaker 6: money show on TV. At the bottom, you'll start seeing
- 17:08Speaker 6: like now that you know, you'll start seeing you know, USDCAD,
- 17:12Speaker 6: it's a whole bunch of currency piers at the bottom.
- 17:14Speaker 5: That's for X. It's right in front of people the
- 17:16Speaker 5: whole time. So it's not a scam.
- 17:17Speaker 6: It's just perceived that way because they see people the
- 17:20Speaker 6: way they market it seems scammy or spamish, and some
- 17:24Speaker 6: people are Now I'm not messing with that because the
- 17:25Speaker 6: person that's shown it to you it's a scam, right,
- 17:28Speaker 6: And so sometimes it's because of who brought it to
- 17:31Speaker 6: you that makes you feel that way. But if you
- 17:32Speaker 6: have a professional on somebody that's making a lot of money,
- 17:34Speaker 6: now you're gonna listen, like, man, how do you make money?
- 17:36Speaker 5: How do you do this?
- 17:36Speaker 6: I'm like, okay, trade for X now, people listen. So
- 17:39Speaker 6: what I've seen is it just depends on who brought
- 17:41Speaker 6: it to you. You know, like somebody on the side
- 17:43Speaker 6: of the street that looks a little ragged and say,
- 17:44Speaker 6: hey man, what you do trade for?
- 17:45Speaker 5: She's like, oh no, brother, leave it. That happened.
- 17:48Speaker 2: You know what?
- 17:49Speaker 1: A girl, a girl was actually in our program, no joke,
- 17:51Speaker 1: no joke, a girl that was in a summer program.
- 17:54Speaker 1: She had to be like seventeen eighteen. She was like, Troy,
- 17:57Speaker 1: can I speak to you? I'm like, yeah, what's going on?
- 17:59Speaker 1: She was like, nah, counk come over here and like
- 18:00Speaker 1: with one on one and I'm like, what's up? And
- 18:03Speaker 1: she was like what are you doing? Like tomorrow at
- 18:06Speaker 1: three o'clock. I'm like, what you mean? It was like,
- 18:09Speaker 1: I want you to come to this meeting about some
- 18:10Speaker 1: making money. I said, asked you if you don't get
- 18:12Speaker 1: out of here, like I pay you.
- 18:15Speaker 5: Right right right, right right right. But you know, people
- 18:18Speaker 5: got to start somewhere.
- 18:19Speaker 3: That's the fact.
- 18:20Speaker 6: I feel like if I would say this, y'all wouldn't
- 18:23Speaker 6: be sitting I started doing this three and a half
- 18:24Speaker 6: years ago, y'all would have be sitting there with justin
- 18:26Speaker 6: three and a half years ago.
- 18:27Speaker 2: You know.
- 18:27Speaker 6: But because I study got better, you know, people pay
- 18:31Speaker 6: attention now, you know, But at the beginning, it was
- 18:33Speaker 6: like is it real?
- 18:34Speaker 5: Now? It's a lot of risks that goes with it.
- 18:36Speaker 6: You know that you know, I tell people, as much
- 18:38Speaker 6: money as you can make, you can lose them for its.
- 18:40Speaker 6: And so you know you've got to have you know,
- 18:43Speaker 6: understanding and understanding of like proper risk management you get
- 18:46Speaker 6: into the trades because a lot of people what happens
- 18:47Speaker 6: when they get into forests. Another reason why it feels
- 18:49Speaker 6: like a scam is they really don't want to learn it.
- 18:52Speaker 6: They just want to put their money in and they
- 18:53Speaker 6: just want to grow it. How do I make money?
- 18:55Speaker 6: Like I had a pastor, big time pastor. They got
- 18:58Speaker 6: started not too long ago. He was like, look, I
- 18:59Speaker 6: got quarter million dollars I want to put in the market.
- 19:01Speaker 6: I'm like, no, you're not doing that because you don't.
- 19:04Speaker 5: Know what you're doing.
- 19:05Speaker 6: Because it sounded like a quarter million sounds like a
- 19:07Speaker 6: lot of money. But when it's a six point six
- 19:09Speaker 6: trillion dollar market depending on the day, that ain't no money.
- 19:12Speaker 5: They'll suck that up in a few minutes. Big shocks,
- 19:15Speaker 5: big time because.
- 19:16Speaker 6: Like to move this market, you got to be a
- 19:18Speaker 6: bank or financial institution, you know, like retail traders.
- 19:21Speaker 5: That's us, Like.
- 19:22Speaker 6: We we make up a very small percentage. I think
- 19:24Speaker 6: it's something like less than five percent of the entire market.
- 19:27Speaker 6: It might be less than that, so it's not a
- 19:29Speaker 6: lot of money that all the retail traders that you
- 19:32Speaker 6: see are.
- 19:32Speaker 5: Putting in the market.
- 19:33Speaker 6: So yeah, I think that's where they get that reputation from.
- 19:38Speaker 6: It's who was bringing in how people are marketing, but
- 19:40Speaker 6: it's people get better, their confidence gets better. I think
- 19:42Speaker 6: one of the things that's cool about it is you
- 19:45Speaker 6: don't need people to make money. Okay, you know, like
- 19:48Speaker 6: I can just trade. I don't have to recruit nobody, don't
- 19:50Speaker 6: have to sell nothing to nobody. I understand how any
- 19:52Speaker 6: links I can make money by myself, and that to
- 19:55Speaker 6: me was really cool, especially when look at last year
- 19:57Speaker 6: when people were really shut down investing and stuff like that.
- 19:59Speaker 6: That's that's a that's a powerful skill, especially if you
- 20:03Speaker 6: understand what to do with it. When you look at
- 20:05Speaker 6: what some of the things that happened in stock which
- 20:06Speaker 6: we were just talking about, and what happened to digital currency.
- 20:09Speaker 5: Knowing what we know now, I would have I would.
- 20:12Speaker 7: Have I would nothing last year and just put it
- 20:17Speaker 7: all in the market, because I mean it would be
- 20:21Speaker 7: it would be a wrap that fact.
- 20:24Speaker 2: So let me ask you this as far as like stocks, well,
- 20:26Speaker 2: obviously you know people have their favorites, whether it's technology
- 20:29Speaker 2: companies Apple, Microsoft, Google, and all stocks aren't the same.
- 20:33Speaker 2: Like I mean, if you invest in, you know, a
- 20:35Speaker 2: penny stock is not the same as investing in Tesla.
- 20:38Speaker 2: So currencies is it the same, Like are they like
- 20:41Speaker 2: some currencies that are like the premier currencies or do
- 20:45Speaker 2: you have a favorite that you like to actually trade it?
- 20:48Speaker 6: There are, but it's all it's all Uh, it's all personal,
- 20:51Speaker 6: you know.
- 20:51Speaker 5: I tell people all the time, trading is personal.
- 20:53Speaker 6: Because what it is is really like you got to
- 20:56Speaker 6: look at the chart and it's got to make sense
- 20:58Speaker 6: to you, you know, at the end of the day.
- 20:59Speaker 6: Because like, for instance, my personal favorite is aud usd
- 21:04Speaker 6: It's not the top.
- 21:05Speaker 5: Moving currency, period but it flows for me.
- 21:08Speaker 2: I'm like a chill Australian dollars.
- 21:10Speaker 6: Australion dollar US dollar right, and so Australian dollar versus
- 21:13Speaker 6: US dollar.
- 21:13Speaker 5: But for me, I'm like a chill guy. I travel
- 21:15Speaker 5: a lot, so I don't.
- 21:15Speaker 6: Need a ton of movement to be able to make
- 21:18Speaker 6: the moves that I need to make in the market.
- 21:19Speaker 6: There's some people that are like USDJPY the United States
- 21:22Speaker 6: dollar versus the Japanese in moves a lot. Some people
- 21:25Speaker 6: like like now there's a new one that you can
- 21:28Speaker 6: trade on four, which is US thirty, which is the
- 21:30Speaker 6: top US top thirty US companies that are in that
- 21:35Speaker 6: currency period, and that's really volatile, so.
- 21:38Speaker 2: It's thirty companies.
- 21:39Speaker 6: The dollar is just thirty companies, right, the top thirty companies,
- 21:42Speaker 6: and I don't even know which ones. I don't trade
- 21:44Speaker 6: it because it's too for me. But I had a
- 21:46Speaker 6: friend last year. He made three point three million dollars
- 21:49Speaker 6: on it just trading US thirty. But it's very risky,
- 21:52Speaker 6: so they'll be in trades for a short period of time.
- 21:54Speaker 6: But the year before that, you know, DL made I
- 21:57Speaker 6: think it was like one hundred and eighty thousand dollars
- 21:59Speaker 6: just regular for it, and he really studied US thirty
- 22:02Speaker 6: and get into it. Made over three million dollars last
- 22:05Speaker 6: year trading it, so it's very risky.
- 22:08Speaker 5: You can a lot of people don't even know.
- 22:10Speaker 6: You can trade gold and silver on in the foreign
- 22:13Speaker 6: exchange market, so you can trade commodities in there.
- 22:15Speaker 5: So there's a lot of ways to play in the
- 22:17Speaker 5: game of forks.
- 22:18Speaker 6: You just got to find a currency pair or a
- 22:21Speaker 6: commodity or something that really rocks that you really rock
- 22:24Speaker 6: with and resonate with, and you really understand some people
- 22:27Speaker 6: don't know. You can trade digital currency in there, so
- 22:30Speaker 6: you can trade the bitcoin versus the US dollar or
- 22:34Speaker 6: XRP or theoreum and things of that nature. So there's
- 22:36Speaker 6: so many ways for a person to really get into
- 22:39Speaker 6: the market. It's not just you know, for x is
- 22:41Speaker 6: just the title of you know, the market. There's so
- 22:46Speaker 6: many ways that you can actually make money inside of.
- 22:48Speaker 1: It after you've made your selection of your pair. Are
- 22:50Speaker 1: there like some strategies or technical things that you should
- 22:53Speaker 1: be looking at when you go into this, because I
- 22:55Speaker 1: know we've had a conversation before about doing the analytics
- 22:58Speaker 1: and the technicals when it was coming to the stock mark.
- 23:00Speaker 1: So what are some of those things that we're using
- 23:02Speaker 1: for us?
- 23:02Speaker 6: Yeah, So, I mean there's a lot of tools some
- 23:04Speaker 6: people trade with indicators. Personally I don't, but they work
- 23:07Speaker 6: for people. Again, it all depends on what works for
- 23:09Speaker 6: you and what you see when you look at the market.
- 23:12Speaker 6: You know, some of the basics that are really important.
- 23:14Speaker 6: It is like supporting support and resistance, understanding you know,
- 23:17Speaker 6: the floor and the ceiling on a certain currency. Prayer
- 23:20Speaker 6: that helps you with your entry point understanding, like druing
- 23:23Speaker 6: trend lines so you can see where the market is going.
- 23:24Speaker 6: When it breaks the trend, maybe it's a good time
- 23:26Speaker 6: to get into the Marketibonacci, right, using fibonacci looking for
- 23:33Speaker 6: retreacement levels and when okay, is this a good time
- 23:35Speaker 6: to get back in. All of those things really kind
- 23:38Speaker 6: of come in and so a lot of people use
- 23:40Speaker 6: is a combination of a few things, and that's kind
- 23:42Speaker 6: of become their strategy.
- 23:43Speaker 2: Yeah, all of that stuff and stuff that we talk
- 23:45Speaker 2: about on market Mondays with stocks Oh wow.
- 23:47Speaker 6: So yeah, once we start talking like you be like
- 23:51Speaker 6: I think we were talking about binary options, and I said,
- 23:54Speaker 6: use like a call and to put stuff like that,
- 23:56Speaker 6: like a lot of stuff is very similar. And in fact,
- 23:58Speaker 6: I think it is in the options. I think it's
- 24:00Speaker 6: called that I don't personally trade. I have a lot
- 24:02Speaker 6: of people in my group that trade it. I actually
- 24:04Speaker 6: believe it's the same terminology that people use.
- 24:07Speaker 5: So it's all very similar.
- 24:10Speaker 2: What is the binary options binary options?
- 24:12Speaker 5: It is still for X, but it's time for X.
- 24:15Speaker 6: So like with regular forks, I could be in the
- 24:17Speaker 6: trade a couple of days, a couple hours, months, whatever
- 24:20Speaker 6: I want to choose, whenever I want to close out
- 24:22Speaker 6: and call my profit or my loss. When it comes
- 24:25Speaker 6: to binary options, it's time for it. So you're literally
- 24:30Speaker 6: looking at the market to go above a certain point
- 24:34Speaker 6: in a certain time period, whether the it's a minute,
- 24:36Speaker 6: where there's three minutes, or if you want to continue
- 24:38Speaker 6: to roll it over and so it's literally the same
- 24:41Speaker 6: thing except for as time forks. A lot of people
- 24:42Speaker 6: call it money and minutes because your decision, your ability
- 24:47Speaker 6: to make money is done in three minutes. So one
- 24:49Speaker 6: thing I like about it is that you get your response,
- 24:54Speaker 6: your feedback really quick, either lost or you want you know,
- 25:00Speaker 6: you know, as opposed to like sometimes you know sometimes
- 25:03Speaker 6: like we were talking these days, you make a lot
- 25:05Speaker 6: of money, lose a lot of money, and you can
- 25:07Speaker 6: do the same thing there, but it's it's quick. It's
- 25:08Speaker 6: either like, hey, close us out. I made fifty dollars
- 25:12Speaker 6: or I lost fifty dollars. Close this out in a
- 25:14Speaker 6: minute or three minutes. I either lost five thousand, I
- 25:17Speaker 6: made five thousand. It's literally that quick.
- 25:19Speaker 2: So you you're you're doing daily like what's your what's
- 25:23Speaker 2: your personal strategy?
- 25:24Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm more of like an entry day trader.
- 25:26Speaker 6: So a lot of trades I have, I'm going to
- 25:28Speaker 6: hold it for a few hours, maybe a couple of days,
- 25:31Speaker 6: and I'm out of the trade. You know, like some
- 25:34Speaker 6: people they hold them for a few hours. That's literally
- 25:36Speaker 6: it a lot of people. It's like like some people
- 25:38Speaker 6: have strategies where it's like ten pips in dip. As
- 25:40Speaker 6: I get my ten pips, I'm out.
- 25:42Speaker 5: You know, we have a.
- 25:45Speaker 6: Calculator in our group as well, like you just some
- 25:47Speaker 6: people just go off percentage points. When I grow my
- 25:49Speaker 6: account by ten percent or twenty percent, I'm out. So
- 25:51Speaker 6: it really just kind of depends on your strategy when
- 25:53Speaker 6: it comes to trading, because you know, greed is you know,
- 25:57Speaker 6: it's you know, and I think I think one of
- 25:59Speaker 6: the things you find out about yourself through.
- 26:02Speaker 5: Trading is if you're a greedy person.
- 26:03Speaker 6: You know, because I've been in trades, been up with
- 26:06Speaker 6: a couple of thousand dollars, I'll be like, all right, no,
- 26:07Speaker 6: maybe go to ten thousand, and then it go down,
- 26:10Speaker 6: you know, a couple thousand dollars.
- 26:11Speaker 5: You be like, let me just wait to get back
- 26:13Speaker 5: to where it was. And then you know what I'm saying, like,
- 26:15Speaker 5: why did I just take it.
- 26:16Speaker 3: You get back to thousand.
- 26:19Speaker 2: So you say you don't you don't do technical analysis
- 26:21Speaker 2: too much?
- 26:21Speaker 6: No, No, I don't use I don't use a lot of indicators,
- 26:25Speaker 6: you know, because what do you use? I just use
- 26:27Speaker 6: basically technical analysis, bro, I'll use supporting resistance, I'll draw
- 26:30Speaker 6: my trend lines, and I'm just looking at good entry
- 26:32Speaker 6: points on the market.
- 26:33Speaker 2: That's it.
- 26:34Speaker 5: That's it for me.
- 26:35Speaker 6: It works because what I trade now a lot of times,
- 26:38Speaker 6: just like we were talking before, is digital currency. And
- 26:40Speaker 6: so I mean, I like to keep things simple. I've
- 26:43Speaker 6: seen people charts and they got all these indicators, they
- 26:45Speaker 6: got all these waves and all this kind of stuff,
- 26:47Speaker 6: And can't it be helpful for a newer person absolutely
- 26:50Speaker 6: to find a good point to get in. But I've
- 26:51Speaker 6: been trading now three and a half years, so a
- 26:53Speaker 6: lot of times I know what I'm looking for, and
- 26:54Speaker 6: a lot of a lot of times that stuff on
- 26:56Speaker 6: the charts really make it more, it messes it up
- 26:58Speaker 6: for me.
- 26:59Speaker 5: So I don't I don't really get.
- 27:00Speaker 1: What's the level of time commitment we need to be
- 27:02Speaker 1: successful because a lot of times we talk to people like, yo,
- 27:05Speaker 1: do your research, do your homework, But this is different
- 27:08Speaker 1: because it's twenty four hours. So what's the level of
- 27:10Speaker 1: commitment that we should have allocated to, you know, if
- 27:13Speaker 1: we want to be successful, if we're trying to do
- 27:15Speaker 1: the fifty or sixty pips in a day or something
- 27:18Speaker 1: like that.
- 27:18Speaker 5: Yeah, so that's a good question.
- 27:20Speaker 6: A lot of times, what I tell people is you
- 27:22Speaker 6: want to give yourself, you know, an hour a day,
- 27:25Speaker 6: five days a week over ninety days, and you're not
- 27:27Speaker 6: gonna be an expert, but you'll be pretty proficient to
- 27:29Speaker 6: start calling out your own trades yourself. Now that's a
- 27:32Speaker 6: different question from when can a person start making money?
- 27:35Speaker 6: Because the good thing the thing about fortes, you can
- 27:38Speaker 6: be making money on accident. I have a lot of people.
- 27:39Speaker 5: I've had people that have had incredible days, but it
- 27:41Speaker 5: wasn't on purpose.
- 27:42Speaker 6: And I think that's what a person has to be
- 27:44Speaker 6: honest with themselves is when they get into it, like
- 27:45Speaker 6: did you really know what you were.
- 27:47Speaker 5: Doing or was it an accident.
- 27:49Speaker 6: Now I've got a sergeant a military he just retired
- 27:52Speaker 6: from the military, but you know, his one of his
- 27:54Speaker 6: first trads he made, he made like eleven hundred dollars
- 27:57Speaker 6: on his way to work. So that was like his
- 27:59Speaker 6: first time making money without working, which I think is
- 28:01Speaker 6: really cool. I think that's why we got to talk
- 28:02Speaker 6: about investing more because most of us have never experienced
- 28:06Speaker 6: making money without working. I tell most of us have
- 28:08Speaker 6: been training how to work from the neck down. What
- 28:10Speaker 6: trading and investing does teach you how to work from
- 28:12Speaker 6: the neck up. And so he got in the market,
- 28:15Speaker 6: he made, you know, eleven hundred dollars and he was like, ooh,
- 28:19Speaker 6: this is crazy. Everybody ran in his office. He's like,
- 28:20Speaker 6: but I did it on accident. He said, justin what
- 28:22Speaker 6: made me start studying? And said, what happens if I
- 28:24Speaker 6: can learn how to do this on purpose? Now Gilberto's
- 28:27Speaker 6: had thirty.
- 28:28Speaker 5: Thousand dollar days, forty thousand dollar days, He's.
- 28:30Speaker 6: Had people that made more money. But it's all because
- 28:33Speaker 6: he started learning it and saying, okay.
- 28:35Speaker 5: I got to do this thing on purpose.
- 28:36Speaker 6: But he started out like everybody else. You're watching videos,
- 28:39Speaker 6: going through it, you know, taking the time. And so
- 28:42Speaker 6: for most people, I say, look, ninety days, you'll be proficient.
- 28:46Speaker 6: Twelve to eighteen months you'll really get it, and then
- 28:49Speaker 6: you know the level of being a master trader. I
- 28:51Speaker 6: don't even know if I'm a master trader yet, because
- 28:53Speaker 6: I think you have to see so many things in
- 28:55Speaker 6: the market to call yourself that. Like, you know, you
- 28:58Speaker 6: can have a good year trading, you a master trader.
- 29:00Speaker 6: I mean, you just had a good year. But when
- 29:02Speaker 6: you can go through two thousand and seven, two thousand
- 29:04Speaker 6: and eight, you can go through twenty and twenty, you
- 29:05Speaker 6: can go through whatever's about to come, and you can
- 29:07Speaker 6: still be consistent. Okay, now you're a master trader. So
- 29:10Speaker 6: that that's the goal that everybody wants to get to.
- 29:12Speaker 6: You know, some people call themselves that that. I'm not
- 29:15Speaker 6: there yet, so I don't profess to be, but I
- 29:17Speaker 6: can hold my own.
- 29:18Speaker 2: You said something earlier before, Cam when you was like, uh,
- 29:23Speaker 2: you can never work your way towards financial freedom.
- 29:26Speaker 5: Now you can't. I mean, I think that's that's a
- 29:27Speaker 5: trick that we've been taught.
- 29:29Speaker 6: And I think now that we realize investing, you realize
- 29:32Speaker 6: there was really no way to catch up with people
- 29:34Speaker 6: that are millionaires and billionaires by just working, because when
- 29:37Speaker 6: you start realizing the kind of money you make without working,
- 29:39Speaker 6: Like bro, I've woken up like I woke up some
- 29:44Speaker 6: days and be like I remember I used to try
- 29:46Speaker 6: to make this in a year.
- 29:47Speaker 5: Yeah, and I made it. The fact, we call it
- 29:49Speaker 5: our sleeping bag. You wake up to money, you know
- 29:51Speaker 5: what I'm saying.
- 29:51Speaker 3: But now I like that sleep.
- 29:55Speaker 6: Yeah, gave over that, But it's sleeping bag. That's what
- 30:00Speaker 6: we call it is because you can make money in
- 30:02Speaker 6: your sleep. And most of us have only been taught
- 30:04Speaker 6: how to make money by working. And to me, that's
- 30:07Speaker 6: the trap, because that ain't how you do it. How
- 30:09Speaker 6: many people like I didn't go to college. That wasn't
- 30:12Speaker 6: my lane. But here's what I thought about, and I do.
- 30:14Speaker 6: I'm not education because I think it is valuable. I
- 30:16Speaker 6: said all this because but but here's the thing what
- 30:22Speaker 6: I looked at before I was going to go to college.
- 30:23Speaker 5: It was two things.
- 30:24Speaker 6: When I was going to go to school for business,
- 30:26Speaker 6: my parents took me to all these schools and I
- 30:29Speaker 6: asked the professor that was running the courses, how many
- 30:31Speaker 6: of them ever ran a business? They none of them
- 30:33Speaker 6: ever had, So I was like, that was a not
- 30:36Speaker 6: And then I looked at how many people do you know?
- 30:38Speaker 6: And I asked all this, how man people you know
- 30:40Speaker 6: that worked a job their entire life and they're financially free.
- 30:45Speaker 2: Very few? I don't know.
- 30:47Speaker 5: I don't know anybody, but it's very few.
- 30:49Speaker 6: So it's like, if that's the lane, if that was
- 30:51Speaker 6: the route, I had never saw anybody do it in
- 30:53Speaker 6: my life. I say, it's got to be another way
- 30:55Speaker 6: for me to be able to do this. So I
- 30:56Speaker 6: got into business, and so I started doing well. And
- 30:59Speaker 6: you know, I wasn't poor growing up, like I had
- 31:02Speaker 6: a lot of things that I needed, but not everything
- 31:04Speaker 6: I wanted, if that makes sense. And so my parents
- 31:06Speaker 6: great parents, incredible parents. I learned a lot of my
- 31:08Speaker 6: work ethic from them. My personality comes from my mom,
- 31:11Speaker 6: it comes from my dad. But when I saw a
- 31:14Speaker 6: lot of things they did, I was like, Okay, I
- 31:15Speaker 6: got in business. I started making money, and then what
- 31:17Speaker 6: do you go? Do you go buy all the stuff
- 31:18Speaker 6: you couldn't afford when you.
- 31:20Speaker 5: Had no money. So I started doing the trips.
- 31:21Speaker 6: I started having the shoes and all this kind of stuff,
- 31:23Speaker 6: And then I realized how much money was just sitting
- 31:26Speaker 6: in my closet.
- 31:27Speaker 5: And then when you get broke, eventually, you.
- 31:28Speaker 2: Know some.
- 31:31Speaker 6: You'd be like, Dad, I really need that seven hundred dollars, right,
- 31:34Speaker 6: I could sell these kicks too, right. But a mentor
- 31:38Speaker 6: came to me and he was like, listen, justin You've
- 31:39Speaker 6: done pretty well for yourself. But he said, man, you
- 31:41Speaker 6: got to learn how to start having money work for you.
- 31:43Speaker 6: And so the key is you got to have money
- 31:45Speaker 6: start working for you harder than you're working for it.
- 31:48Speaker 6: He said, look, why don't you have your money go
- 31:49Speaker 6: out and bring your profit every day instead of you
- 31:52Speaker 6: send your money in traffic, have it go to work
- 31:54Speaker 6: every single day, and then you then, you know, like
- 31:56Speaker 6: the richest man of Battleland talks about, your goal is
- 31:58Speaker 6: to have your money, have kids and then grand kids
- 32:03Speaker 6: and then great grand kids. What most of us do
- 32:06Speaker 6: is we get make our money and we spend it.
- 32:09Speaker 6: And then the last three letters of the word spend
- 32:11Speaker 6: is what every time you spend your money, it ends
- 32:14Speaker 6: for you, but it starts working for the person that
- 32:17Speaker 6: you just gave it to. And that's the thing that
- 32:19Speaker 6: we've been we've been caught up with, you know, is
- 32:22Speaker 6: people get.
- 32:22Speaker 5: All their money.
- 32:23Speaker 6: We saw last year with the stimulus checking all that stuff,
- 32:26Speaker 6: d R Line was out to sit out the buildings
- 32:29Speaker 6: to this day so that even if you get the money,
- 32:34Speaker 6: like and people weren't even going out, were in quarantine
- 32:36Speaker 6: you're getting a fresh outfit to be by yourself.
- 32:39Speaker 5: But what do we do.
- 32:39Speaker 6: We get the money and we go spend it instead
- 32:41Speaker 6: of taking it and investing it. The only thing I've
- 32:45Speaker 6: seen with most of us, and it don't matter to
- 32:47Speaker 6: me if you do four x digital currency stocks, is
- 32:50Speaker 6: you gotta learn how to invest, because if you're not
- 32:53Speaker 6: saving or investing, you're not even on.
- 32:54Speaker 5: The road to creating wealth. And that's that's just the fact.
- 32:57Speaker 6: We got to learn how to have our money workingforce
- 32:59Speaker 6: in the market place, and if we don't, there's no
- 33:02Speaker 6: way we're gonna win.
- 33:03Speaker 2: When you spend money, you in money. That's definite, spend
- 33:05Speaker 2: it it is. That's a fact. So let's talk about
- 33:08Speaker 2: crypto a little bit. Yeah, this is what everybody has
- 33:11Speaker 2: been feeding for crypto currency conversations. So all right, crypto. Right,
- 33:17Speaker 2: we got the big dog, big coin YEP, which I
- 33:20Speaker 2: think makes up like seventy percent of the marketplace shortage.
- 33:22Speaker 3: It's as sixty four today.
- 33:23Speaker 2: Sixty four dominant. And then you have the other coins ethereum,
- 33:28Speaker 2: light coin, XRP, things of that and data say.
- 33:32Speaker 1: This episode is brought to you by P and C Bank.
- 33:35Speaker 1: A lot of people think podcasts about work are boring,
- 33:37Speaker 1: and sure they definitely can be, but understanding of professionals
- 33:41Speaker 1: routine shows us how they achieve their success little by little,
- 33:45Speaker 1: day after day. It's like banking with P and C Bank.
- 33:49Speaker 1: It might seem boring to save, plan and make calculated
- 33:52Speaker 1: decisions with your bank, but keeping your money boring is

- 34:22Speaker 1: tipping is a breeze, and you're out the door before

- 35:23Speaker 5: Now took XR piece, but a lot of them took
- 35:26Speaker 5: XR piece by now.
- 35:32Speaker 2: So all right, let's start. We'll have a broad range conversation.
- 35:36Speaker 2: But let's start with bitcoin, the granddaddy of them all right, bigcoin,
- 35:42Speaker 2: household name, people hated and love it.
- 35:45Speaker 5: Top performing asset for the last couple of years in fact.
- 35:48Speaker 2: So if somebody right now is thinking, Okay, what is
- 35:52Speaker 2: this bigcoin thing I keep hearing about it? Is it safe?
- 35:55Speaker 2: Should I put money into it? Is it gonna just
- 35:58Speaker 2: disappear overnight? Like, where do we start with the conversation
- 36:01Speaker 2: with bitcoin?
- 36:02Speaker 5: Yeah, I think.
- 36:03Speaker 6: I think the biggest thing is to understand the technology,
- 36:06Speaker 6: you know, with blockchain, and that's something i'm still I
- 36:08Speaker 6: still study it to this day because it's so I'm like, man,
- 36:10Speaker 6: there's a lot of stuff to this, to this entire
- 36:12Speaker 6: ecosystem that's been built, but in my opinion, it's here
- 36:16Speaker 6: to stay and you can see it, you know, like
- 36:18Speaker 6: it's funny. A couple of years ago, JP, Morgan and
- 36:21Speaker 6: Chase was saying, don't touch it as a scam. Now
- 36:23Speaker 6: we believe it's going to get one hundred thirty thousand.
- 36:25Speaker 6: They put it that one hundred and thirty thousands because
- 36:28Speaker 6: they when it took off in twenty and eighteen, it's
- 36:31Speaker 6: twenty seventeen, yep, December, the big money wasn't in the game.
- 36:34Speaker 6: So what do they have to do. They had to
- 36:35Speaker 6: talk about it driving down because Okay, this thing might
- 36:37Speaker 6: be real. Let's talk about it real quick. Now we
- 36:39Speaker 6: build the infrastructure. Now you've got banks getting involved, youve
- 36:41Speaker 6: got countries getting involved. That's now because they're like, this
- 36:44Speaker 6: thing is going to be around, so let's figure out
- 36:45Speaker 6: how we can be a part of this growth. And
- 36:47Speaker 6: now you see companies and institutions that are now making
- 36:51Speaker 6: a part of their portfolio. Not like they're not getting
- 36:53Speaker 6: super aggressive yet, but you know, ten percent of the
- 36:56Speaker 6: hedge fund is now going into crypto. It's starting to
- 36:58Speaker 6: show you that money is now starting to get into it.
- 37:01Speaker 6: And once they get into it, you know, it's it's
- 37:03Speaker 6: almost that that that's saying that it becomes too big
- 37:06Speaker 6: to fail?
- 37:06Speaker 2: Do you view it more as I think the word
- 37:09Speaker 2: cryptocurrency is a little misleading because digital currency, really, I
- 37:12Speaker 2: think even currency is a little misleading because it's not
- 37:15Speaker 2: being used as I think people's using it more as
- 37:18Speaker 2: an investment store value more's goal. So do you see
- 37:21Speaker 2: it in the future as actually being used as currency
- 37:25Speaker 2: or more so as like a store value goal?
- 37:28Speaker 6: I do I think I think it depends on which one.
- 37:30Speaker 6: But I think bitcoin is more of a like people
- 37:33Speaker 6: are storing money in it. But like and I hate
- 37:36Speaker 6: the XRP is going through what it's going through. We'll
- 37:38Speaker 6: see how it pans out. You know, the guy filed
- 37:40Speaker 6: a suit and then step down the next day, so
- 37:43Speaker 6: we'll see. But XRP is an example. It's utility is
- 37:46Speaker 6: to help with international payments and making it cheaper, so
- 37:49Speaker 6: That's why you had companies like Western Union and money
- 37:52Speaker 6: Gramming them partnering with them because you know how it
- 37:54Speaker 6: used to be to send money money graham was expensive
- 37:56Speaker 6: and it took a lot of time. Well, now you
- 37:58Speaker 6: can send millions of dollars in a matter of seconds.
- 38:01Speaker 6: So that's the utility that it serves. So I think
- 38:03Speaker 6: they're going to have depending on the currency. The use
- 38:06Speaker 6: that it serves in the marketplace is where is where
- 38:08Speaker 6: it's going to make sense for you to invest. So
- 38:10Speaker 6: what I would say to anybody, even if it's bitcoin,
- 38:12Speaker 6: before you invest into it, research it, Like, don't buy
- 38:15Speaker 6: bitcoin just because you've heard it's time, because typically by
- 38:18Speaker 6: the time you heard about it, the move's already been made.
- 38:20Speaker 6: Like you should have been buying it that when it
- 38:23Speaker 6: was like March thirteenth or eleven.
- 38:25Speaker 5: Last year, it was thirty eight hundred dollars a coin. Yeah,
- 38:28Speaker 5: you know.
- 38:28Speaker 6: Now it's thirty five thousand, you know, and it's been higher.
- 38:33Speaker 6: Now people are trying to get into it, and I'm like, well,
- 38:35Speaker 6: you know, now for your money to double, it's got
- 38:37Speaker 6: to go from thirty five thousand it's seventy thousand. Maybe
- 38:40Speaker 6: you want to look at putting some money in there.
- 38:42Speaker 6: I tell people that if you want to, because you
- 38:44Speaker 6: can buy fractions up. You don't have to buy a
- 38:45Speaker 6: whole thing, you know. Maybe I always have like my portfolios,
- 38:48Speaker 6: half of it is bitcoin, and then you diversify with
- 38:52Speaker 6: all coins because bitcoin is the it's the brand.
- 38:55Speaker 5: A COMEP got to have that, you know.
- 38:57Speaker 6: But then you have things like ethereum ness at all
- 38:59Speaker 6: time high right now XRP, even though it's had what
- 39:01Speaker 6: is going on.
- 39:03Speaker 5: The majority of their usages.
- 39:04Speaker 6: Is out of the United States anyway, so they only
- 39:06Speaker 6: shut down the United States, which is like ten percent
- 39:08Speaker 6: of their uses, but it's still up. It was eleven
- 39:09Speaker 6: cents last March, it's thirty something since today xl them.
- 39:13Speaker 6: That was super low. I don't remember what it was.
- 39:16Speaker 6: I bought up three cents, right, thirty cents.
- 39:18Speaker 3: Twenty eight.
- 39:21Speaker 2: That's stellar sells. Stelling's back by IBM.
- 39:25Speaker 6: So it's like all of these things. It's like, man,
- 39:28Speaker 6: what's the percentage of growth on that? Though in a
- 39:30Speaker 6: matter of months. So what starts happening is as the
- 39:34Speaker 6: bitcoin grows. That's happened in twenty and seventeen would have happened.
- 39:37Speaker 6: If people will start taking profit. That's why some of
- 39:39Speaker 6: it's pulling back right now, and people are starting to
- 39:41Speaker 6: invest into these art coins. So when they start taking
- 39:43Speaker 6: money from here, then they put in these art coins.
- 39:45Speaker 6: Now they start growing because people are like, oh, man,
- 39:47Speaker 6: I can take the man stell what do you call it?
- 39:50Speaker 6: Etheroereums of a thousand? Man, if he gets to two
- 39:52Speaker 6: thousand and three thousand, well now just triple my money again,
- 39:56Speaker 6: triple my money and bitcoin at this point, I gotta
- 39:58Speaker 6: take it in ninety thousand, which.
- 39:59Speaker 5: Again will it could happen, you know.
- 40:02Speaker 6: So that's why what they'll do is what people will
- 40:04Speaker 6: do because you think about it, Bitcoin's kind of been
- 40:06Speaker 6: a the stalemate for the last week and a half
- 40:08Speaker 6: or so, right it hasn't really been a lot of growth.
- 40:11Speaker 6: So well, man, I could take my money out of here,
- 40:14Speaker 6: put it in etherean real quick. That's growing right now.
- 40:16Speaker 6: Some of these other coins make my profit and then
- 40:18Speaker 6: flip it back into bitcoin. So now I got more
- 40:21Speaker 6: bitcoin than what I had initially. And so that's what
- 40:23Speaker 6: that's what a lot of us are doing, you know,
- 40:25Speaker 6: in the marketplace, and it's been real profitable. Another thing
- 40:29Speaker 6: with trading digital currency on the Forest platform is it's
- 40:34Speaker 6: open twenty four hours a day, seven days a week.
- 40:36Speaker 6: Four x is only open twenty four hours a day,
- 40:38Speaker 6: five days a week.
- 40:38Speaker 1: Oh yeah, yeah, that was and that was the thing
- 40:41Speaker 1: we were encountering. It was like we started taking shifts.
- 40:44Speaker 1: This thing don't close. It was like you know, like
- 40:46Speaker 1: you know, at four o'clock you can rest if you
- 40:47Speaker 1: do watching the stockroll, like all right, well tomaw's a
- 40:49Speaker 1: new death right. And then crypto currency it was like, yo,
- 40:52Speaker 1: it's Sunday at three am, Like yo, somebody got to
- 40:55Speaker 1: watch the charts man, Like you know, you get that
- 40:57Speaker 1: text match. It's like yo, we're up one hundred percent.
- 41:00Speaker 1: It's like, how do I get more money in there?
- 41:01Speaker 1: But you gotta wait for the banks. So it was crazy,
- 41:04Speaker 1: but it's the same discipline, right, like you by low
- 41:08Speaker 1: so high. The problem is when we see crypto go
- 41:10Speaker 1: or we see bitcoin go to forty one thousand, it's
- 41:12Speaker 1: like I better get it now for a gets two hundred.
- 41:14Speaker 5: Right, And that's the worst time to buy something.
- 41:16Speaker 6: This is at it all time high because it's always
- 41:19Speaker 6: gonna pull back nothing just And that's the thing, the
- 41:22Speaker 6: thing that makes us people up in business too, because
- 41:23Speaker 6: people psychologically, we want something that just just goes up.
- 41:27Speaker 5: And nothing just goes up in life. It has time.
- 41:30Speaker 5: What goes up and it comes back down, goes up
- 41:32Speaker 5: and comes back down.
- 41:33Speaker 6: And I think if we start understanding the philosophy more
- 41:35Speaker 6: so of investing, we can become more successful investors. And yeah,
- 41:41Speaker 6: I mean, I look, I'm not a wizard when it
- 41:45Speaker 6: comes to this stuff, but I believe digital currency, cryptocurrency,
- 41:47Speaker 6: whatever you want to word it as, is here to stay.
- 41:49Speaker 2: And so.
- 41:52Speaker 5: It's for me, you gotta learn it.
- 41:54Speaker 6: I would hate to be that person like in our
- 41:56Speaker 6: parents generation of the dot com earand's like, oh, that's
- 41:58Speaker 6: a scam, it's not gonna be here.
- 41:59Speaker 5: And it's like, well we're.
- 42:01Speaker 6: Wrong about that one, Like why not at least why
- 42:05Speaker 6: not at least learn about it? It don't take up. I
- 42:08Speaker 6: read something. I read something and that don't quote me
- 42:10Speaker 6: on this, but it was something like, if you got
- 42:12Speaker 6: a little bit of money, you can make a few
- 42:14Speaker 6: thousand dollars. If you got millions right now, you could
- 42:18Speaker 6: be a multi millionaire. With digital currency, you got multi
- 42:21Speaker 6: millions right now, you could be completely done financially. Because
- 42:24Speaker 6: of what's happening with the growth in it. So I
- 42:26Speaker 6: think for anybody that just puts it aside as a
- 42:28Speaker 6: scamra it doesn't work or it doesn't make sense. I
- 42:30Speaker 6: think it's just naive to say something about something that
- 42:34Speaker 6: most people haven't even really looked into.
- 42:36Speaker 5: Why not look into it? And I have friends.
- 42:38Speaker 6: I had them put one hundred dollars in bitcoin last year.
- 42:40Speaker 6: They called me like, man, I got a couple hundred
- 42:42Speaker 6: dollars a year.
- 42:42Speaker 5: How do I do this again? I'm like, I thought
- 42:44Speaker 5: you was gonna keep doing it. This whole process is.
- 42:46Speaker 6: Going on so you can make money on accident. Well, man,
- 42:49Speaker 6: what happens if we started learning what to do it?
- 42:51Speaker 6: And then you know, one of the principle I teach
- 42:53Speaker 6: people is you know you got to get some cash,
- 42:55Speaker 6: take it by build a grown asset that's gonna.
- 42:57Speaker 5: Make me some more cash.
- 42:59Speaker 6: And if we start spending this money as opposed to
- 43:01Speaker 6: this money will never be broke. The whole thing is like,
- 43:04Speaker 6: y'all got you know what assets of reliabilities? The goals
- 43:07Speaker 6: have some assets that are paying for everything in your life.
- 43:10Speaker 6: Investments are just like that.
- 43:12Speaker 2: So what about GBTC.
- 43:15Speaker 6: GBTC that's so I don't know the exact name of
- 43:17Speaker 6: it's like Gray Scale Bitcoin Trust. I think that's the
- 43:20Speaker 6: name of it. I invested in that. That's you can
- 43:22Speaker 6: buy it on e trade or on the trade on
- 43:26Speaker 6: the stock market. It's not it's not like a it's
- 43:29Speaker 6: not like a stock stock, but it is you can
- 43:31Speaker 6: buy it on e trade, and I like that because
- 43:33Speaker 6: it follows bitcoin's growth, and so a lot of us
- 43:36Speaker 6: we follow bitcoin. We've been watching it for a while,
- 43:38Speaker 6: and so we buy it on both stocks. Were just
- 43:40Speaker 6: trying to be a part of it all. That'll just
- 43:41Speaker 6: be transparent with you. If I can get over here,
- 43:44Speaker 6: buy it over here too, Great Scale, which is really cool.
- 43:47Speaker 6: You the initial and a lot of their funds. You
- 43:50Speaker 6: have to be an a credited investor anyway to be
- 43:52Speaker 6: able to take advantage of it. They've opened up that
- 43:54Speaker 6: fund because there's been more millennials that have been wanting
- 43:57Speaker 6: to take part in it, but they couldn't, you know,
- 44:00Speaker 6: really understand the crypto side. But like right now, I
- 44:03Speaker 6: think it's at you know, thirty five maybe thirty one
- 44:06Speaker 6: dollars a share, and so it follows bitcoin's growth. So
- 44:09Speaker 6: when bitcoin grows, it'll grow.
- 44:12Speaker 2: You know.
- 44:12Speaker 6: When I first started looking at it. It was between five dollars,
- 44:15Speaker 6: seven dollars, nine dollars. I was buying all the way up.
- 44:17Speaker 6: And you know, it's got is high. I think it's
- 44:18Speaker 6: like forty something dollars over the last couple of weeks.
- 44:21Speaker 6: So to me, that's another way to get into it.
- 44:23Speaker 6: If you just kind of want to play around with it,
- 44:25Speaker 6: you can dive into there and you can start making
- 44:27Speaker 6: money there as well. I think matter of fact, I
- 44:29Speaker 6: think Friday they just bought another three hundred million of bitcoin.
- 44:33Speaker 2: So and it's and it's you know regulated.
- 44:35Speaker 5: It is like regulating all that stuff.
- 44:37Speaker 2: You don't have to go.
- 44:38Speaker 6: You gotta worry about nobody's stealing it, you know, because
- 44:40Speaker 6: you know, think about you know, digital currency. I mean
- 44:42Speaker 6: we've seen all the reports like the guy that remember
- 44:44Speaker 6: you posted a guy lost two hundred million.
- 44:47Speaker 2: I was crazy.
- 44:47Speaker 6: I would be going through the trash can too, because
- 44:50Speaker 6: you find it, it's a year of your whole life.
- 44:52Speaker 6: But you know, you got you know, I buy my
- 44:54Speaker 6: digital currency now only the coin based coin base pro,
- 44:57Speaker 6: and then I trade it. I transferred to something called Ledger.
- 45:00Speaker 2: Talk about that. But what's coinbased pro coinbas pro.
- 45:03Speaker 6: It's just like coinbase but it has lower fees. You
- 45:07Speaker 6: gotta it's pros because it's a little like events, a
- 45:10Speaker 6: little bit more events, but the fees are lower, so
- 45:12Speaker 6: you're able to keep more your money when you're when
- 45:14Speaker 6: you're buying a lot of the currency.
- 45:15Speaker 3: You always start on Coinbase or did you try these
- 45:17Speaker 3: other platforms.
- 45:18Speaker 6: I try to Binance a little bit at the beginning Binance.
- 45:21Speaker 6: Of course, in the United States they shut down all business.
- 45:23Speaker 6: There are a few now other ones that you can
- 45:25Speaker 6: buy it on. Of course cash app that you can
- 45:28Speaker 6: buy it on now, Semini Semini, and it's somewhat it's
- 45:32Speaker 6: a new one that everybody just started talking about. I
- 45:34Speaker 6: have to look out. I'll after this, but it's a
- 45:36Speaker 6: few of them that you can buy it on. Coinbase
- 45:38Speaker 6: is kind of like the brandy you know, standard, especially
- 45:41Speaker 6: here in the United States, and they're starting they're trying
- 45:43Speaker 6: to go public as well, so that's something I'll probably
- 45:46Speaker 6: look at too, you know, if they can get through
- 45:47Speaker 6: that process.
- 45:49Speaker 5: But yeah, it's a great place to buy it.
- 45:51Speaker 6: I don't store it there because there's a lot of
- 45:53Speaker 6: things that happens when you're storing it on there. A
- 45:56Speaker 6: lot of times you'll see when there's big moves in
- 45:58Speaker 6: the market, a lot of those platforms, they'll stop working conveniently,
- 46:02Speaker 6: you know what I'm saying, which.
- 46:03Speaker 5: Again is why they need regulation.
- 46:05Speaker 6: You know, because a couple of weeks ago, XRP literally
- 46:09Speaker 6: went from like forty or fifty cents one night to
- 46:11Speaker 6: like almost ninety cents in coinbase froze, so you couldn't
- 46:19Speaker 6: take money out. You can buy it or you can
- 46:21Speaker 6: sell it. Because there was people that's trying to take bitcoin.
- 46:22Speaker 6: They're like, oh man, we could move all this bitcoin
- 46:24Speaker 6: in here now and it's gonna keep going. Because xrp's
- 46:27Speaker 6: biggest high it was like three thousands some change. So
- 46:29Speaker 6: people are like, man, I can flip my money really quick.
- 46:31Speaker 3: Remember that.
- 46:33Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 46:34Speaker 6: So it's like now like I put my stuff on Ledger.
- 46:37Speaker 6: And if you get a ledger like nano nano accident
- 46:40Speaker 6: really matter which when you get just make sure you
- 46:42Speaker 6: get it from their website.
- 46:43Speaker 2: So what can you explain what a ledger is? A
- 46:45Speaker 2: nano ledger.
- 46:46Speaker 5: It's it's like it's a secure wallet. It's not on
- 46:49Speaker 5: an exchange.
- 46:49Speaker 6: It's like that is your exchange, so you know it
- 46:51Speaker 6: doesn't hold all of them, Like I can't send XLM.
- 46:54Speaker 5: I can't see Stellar.
- 46:55Speaker 6: There because it doesn't have like a wallet for it yet,
- 46:58Speaker 6: so they're still building out support. But a lot of
- 47:00Speaker 6: the major ones Bitcoin, like coin Ethereum, XRP, you can
- 47:04Speaker 6: store them there.
- 47:05Speaker 5: And so when your wallet on your own person, it
- 47:07Speaker 5: looks like.
- 47:08Speaker 3: A USB drive.
- 47:08Speaker 5: Yeah, that's exactly what it is, just like a USB drive.
- 47:11Speaker 1: And obviously it has codes and each coin all coin
- 47:14Speaker 1: and some people I don't want it to go over
- 47:16Speaker 1: there head and all coin is any coin that is
- 47:19Speaker 1: not Bitcoin, so it's an alternative to a Bitcoin. And
- 47:21Speaker 1: so the nano ledgers will come preloaded with a wallet
- 47:24Speaker 1: for specific ones, and so if you have XRP, it'll
- 47:27Speaker 1: have the transcript for XRP where you can store it.
- 47:30Speaker 1: So some people are like in the past it was like, yo,
- 47:33Speaker 1: well I'll trust that, but what if I lose that?
- 47:35Speaker 1: And so you can go to like an XRP and
- 47:37Speaker 1: actually upload the wallet to it. The problem is if
- 47:40Speaker 1: you upload it to it and somebody hacks your code
- 47:44Speaker 1: on your computer, it's like all right, well, now have
- 47:46Speaker 1: access to your XRP and one day you may come
- 47:48Speaker 1: and it's going, which is why you have the nano ledger,
- 47:51Speaker 1: and you should never lose the nano ledger.
- 47:52Speaker 6: Yeah, because you know you've heard those hor storys of
- 47:54Speaker 6: people taking their phone to like Rise on the eighteenth
- 47:56Speaker 6: and getting it fixed, and they came back and then
- 47:58Speaker 6: wallet was wiped out.
- 47:58Speaker 3: Yeah we know front that I have it to. Yeah,
- 48:00Speaker 3: it's Google Authenticator.
- 48:02Speaker 1: Yeah he's got he switched phones.
- 48:05Speaker 2: So let me ask you this because some people say
- 48:06Speaker 2: that actually the most secure thing is to write down.
- 48:10Speaker 2: Is that more secure than the nan no leedger? How
- 48:12Speaker 2: does that work?
- 48:12Speaker 5: Write it down?
- 48:13Speaker 6: I never wrote it down, you know, like all the
- 48:15Speaker 6: people I know in crypto told me to get the ledgers.
- 48:17Speaker 1: So because you can write it down, right, you mean
- 48:20Speaker 1: like as like your hand like handwritten, like you have
- 48:23Speaker 1: your cold.
- 48:24Speaker 3: Oh yeah, you can write it. Yeah, absolutely.
- 48:27Speaker 5: But the ledger is like it has its own address.
- 48:29Speaker 6: So what what I like about it is, let's say
- 48:31Speaker 6: bitcoin goes to one hundred thousand. Everybody's trying to cash
- 48:34Speaker 6: out right now in coin base. It may just lock
- 48:37Speaker 6: you up for you can't do nothing where on the ledger.
- 48:40Speaker 6: What I could do is I could send it to
- 48:42Speaker 6: another exchange that's working or someplace else and take my
- 48:46Speaker 6: money out exactly. So that's the kind that's that's the
- 48:49Speaker 6: benefits of that. The security of it is pretty good too.
- 48:52Speaker 6: You don't have to worry about I mean, I mean
- 48:54Speaker 6: unless somebody you gave somebody all those codes.
- 48:56Speaker 1: That you're bringing us down class backs.
- 49:00Speaker 2: I lost five hundred dollars in bitcoin. I sent it
- 49:02Speaker 2: to the wrong actress one time. That's something you gotta
- 49:04Speaker 2: be careful of.
- 49:05Speaker 1: Now you can scan it, though before we have to
- 49:07Speaker 1: do the copy and paste or write it down. But
- 49:10Speaker 1: now I'm thinking like that flashback of when we got
- 49:13Speaker 1: the now Legends. We came to your house and it
- 49:15Speaker 1: was like four of us and it was like a
- 49:16Speaker 1: twenty question survey. It was like, how am I gonna
- 49:20Speaker 1: even remember all these answers.
- 49:21Speaker 5: You got put in?
- 49:21Speaker 6: To say someone, I got a couple of different locations
- 49:24Speaker 6: where I got it.
- 49:25Speaker 2: I also, I can't get into finance right now. I
- 49:28Speaker 2: got like three thousand dollars in binance. That's just like
- 49:31Speaker 2: in like Tron and Car Dannel.
- 49:35Speaker 3: We made some money on Tron. I was big on truing.
- 49:37Speaker 3: I was big on Justice Son.
- 49:38Speaker 2: And then good thing is that I moved all of
- 49:40Speaker 2: my major I moved most. I moved like all of
- 49:42Speaker 2: my real money off of finance into Coinbase, but some
- 49:46Speaker 2: of them, like I don't think Carden, well, Tron's definitely
- 49:49Speaker 2: not supported on coinbase, and I don't think Stellar is either.
- 49:52Speaker 2: It is. I think my Stellar is still on binance.
- 49:55Speaker 2: But how can I get that out?
- 49:58Speaker 5: I would if you can't get it out, how can
- 50:00Speaker 5: I do that? You got to send it to your wallet.
- 50:02Speaker 6: So if you've got Coinbase, yeah, if you open it up,
- 50:04Speaker 6: there's a wallet that you can see.
- 50:06Speaker 2: They won't let me do it. But they won't let
- 50:08Speaker 2: me send money out.
- 50:11Speaker 5: They are a scam.
- 50:12Speaker 6: Now what happened for them, Now what happened for them
- 50:18Speaker 6: is for the US they shut down services. So a
- 50:21Speaker 6: lot of people like they send out emails. It was like,
- 50:22Speaker 6: if you have money in there, you gotta get it out.
- 50:24Speaker 6: So that may be one of the things that happened.
- 50:26Speaker 6: Because the problem with the US right now when it
- 50:29Speaker 6: comes to digital currency is we're so far behind. So
- 50:32Speaker 6: the regulations are so heavy on it because really, you know,
- 50:34Speaker 6: the banks and stuff didn't want it to happen, you know,
- 50:37Speaker 6: So we're all the other countries a little bit more
- 50:40Speaker 6: open with it, or a lot of the other countries
- 50:42Speaker 6: are a little bit more open with the United States
- 50:43Speaker 6: is not. So Binance didn't shut down operations, They just
- 50:46Speaker 6: stopped service in the United States because they're like, okay, y'all, y'all, y'all,
- 50:51Speaker 6: ain't even a big pool of money right now. It's
- 50:53Speaker 6: a lot more money that's out here other than the
- 50:54Speaker 6: United States. So similar to what's happening with XRP, they're
- 50:58Speaker 6: only running into regulatory issue US in the United States.
- 51:00Speaker 6: And it's not even they're not even being fine as
- 51:02Speaker 6: being like a scam. They're they're their their lawsuit against them.
- 51:08Speaker 6: Is it kind of what you're saying, is it's an
- 51:10Speaker 6: actual investment vehicle that people are looking at it as
- 51:13Speaker 6: and they're like, Okay, well you've already said that bitcoins not.
- 51:17Speaker 6: You've already said that Ethereum's not, and you're saying that
- 51:20Speaker 6: we are. So that's what their whole their whole piece
- 51:23Speaker 6: is about.
- 51:25Speaker 1: The crazy part is that when they did that, and
- 51:28Speaker 1: just being in the tech background right away, we were like, yo,
- 51:30Speaker 1: we got to get a VPN, Like we got to
- 51:32Speaker 1: get the VPN because now it'll say that and VPN
- 51:36Speaker 1: is a virtual position network.
- 51:38Speaker 5: Is that what virtual private network?
- 51:40Speaker 3: Private Network Virtual private network.
- 51:42Speaker 1: So if I'm in Atlanta, my VPN will tell you
- 51:46Speaker 1: that I'm in Rio dejan Eo, and so now I
- 51:49Speaker 1: can trade on those platforms. But that's the whole process
- 51:51Speaker 1: in itself. It's not recommending that. I'm just saying that
- 51:54Speaker 1: that's what people were doing in those days.
- 51:56Speaker 2: I mean even now it's like coin Base, like depending
- 51:59Speaker 2: if you live in New York, like the regulations is crazy,
- 52:02Speaker 2: and if you go to Connecticut and Jersey you can
- 52:04Speaker 2: actually do something.
- 52:06Speaker 6: That's what it's the United States, bro, And that's like
- 52:09Speaker 6: Coinbase had to get rid of XRP only because they're
- 52:12Speaker 6: working on becoming public in the United States.
- 52:14Speaker 5: So they're like, we can't be to this company.
- 52:17Speaker 6: Which I think that's smart too, because sometimes in life
- 52:19Speaker 6: you got to associate, disassociate yourself and people that's going mad,
- 52:21Speaker 6: Like hey, you know my man, let's just make sure
- 52:23Speaker 6: to see how that work out and then come back together.
- 52:25Speaker 6: You know what I'm saying, Because they're still saying, hey,
- 52:27Speaker 6: it may come back on because you can still it's
- 52:30Speaker 6: still there. But you know they just you got a
- 52:33Speaker 6: you know, time wtel so you know this is right now.
- 52:35Speaker 6: It's the wild wid West, and I think that's exciting,
- 52:39Speaker 6: you know for me, because everything that's created a lot
- 52:42Speaker 6: of millionaires in America has started off and then the
- 52:44Speaker 6: world started off being the wild wld West until there's
- 52:46Speaker 6: some things that came to place. I would say for
- 52:49Speaker 6: anybody that's investing in any of these things, it's just
- 52:52Speaker 6: learning how.
- 52:52Speaker 5: To get to the right side of money. That's literally it.
- 52:55Speaker 6: Because most of us we have money, and we feel
- 52:57Speaker 6: like we don't have enough money to invest, but we do.
- 52:59Speaker 5: We're just on the wrong side of it.
- 53:00Speaker 6: Like I was talking with my buddies and I was like,
- 53:02Speaker 6: you know, how many of us have had.
- 53:03Speaker 5: Netflix for how many years? I don't know, five years
- 53:07Speaker 5: or more.
- 53:08Speaker 6: And you know, even if you just look at the
- 53:10Speaker 6: five ten or like the eight ten or twelve dollars
- 53:12Speaker 6: I think now pay like eighteen dollars a month, But
- 53:14Speaker 6: how much you've been paying for the last five years
- 53:17Speaker 6: versus what would happen if you would invested that same
- 53:20Speaker 6: money that you spent into Netflix. How much money would
- 53:24Speaker 6: you have. So what's happening for most of us is
- 53:26Speaker 6: we got the money, we're just on the wrong side
- 53:28Speaker 6: of it.
- 53:28Speaker 5: Everywhere.
- 53:28Speaker 6: Instead of investing in Apple, man, we had every single
- 53:30Speaker 6: Apple phone. It's then investing into Tesla. We dropped, we
- 53:33Speaker 6: got a couple of them. It's like, but why not
- 53:35Speaker 6: learn how to put our money on this side? First,
- 53:37Speaker 6: have it make us some money, and then get on
- 53:38Speaker 6: the other side. And I think platforms like you are,
- 53:41Speaker 6: where you're showing people and teaching them education and teaching
- 53:43Speaker 6: them how to mash the markets can be life changing
- 53:47Speaker 6: for a lot of people if they take it serious.
- 53:49Speaker 2: Now that's the fact, and it's one of these things
- 53:51Speaker 2: where a lot of investments are related. Like you said,
- 53:53Speaker 2: like when you learn about how to read charts, you
- 53:55Speaker 2: can read the same charts for crypto, for four x
- 53:58Speaker 2: for stocks. So it's not as complicated as it made sound.
- 54:03Speaker 1: Like.
- 54:03Speaker 2: When you first heard about this stuff for the first time,
- 54:06Speaker 2: it's like you're speaking Spanish, you know what I'm saying.
- 54:08Speaker 2: But the more you become familiar with it, it's like, Okay,
- 54:11Speaker 2: I'm catching on, I'm getting it. Yeah, you know.
- 54:13Speaker 6: That's like my mentor David, he's the one that told
- 54:16Speaker 6: me about GBTZ.
- 54:17Speaker 5: Okay, I mean he's I was like, and he but he.
- 54:19Speaker 6: Had to show me how to buy because it's not
- 54:20Speaker 6: like regular stocks, so you gotta you could just push
- 54:22Speaker 6: by market.
- 54:23Speaker 5: I think you had to do like a limit order
- 54:24Speaker 5: on it and stuff like that.
- 54:25Speaker 6: But I'm like, man, it's the same type of stuff
- 54:27Speaker 6: that I was learning these other areas.
- 54:29Speaker 5: But like, man, you just learn how to invest in the.
- 54:31Speaker 6: Stuff, how to write people in your ear that you
- 54:34Speaker 6: can make money on, Like you gave me a call
- 54:35Speaker 6: and some stuff.
- 54:35Speaker 5: I'm like, man, I didn't even have to.
- 54:37Speaker 6: That's the benefit of being around people that are like
- 54:39Speaker 6: learning and stuff and teaching it. You don't even have
- 54:42Speaker 6: to be the expert, right, but you can still get
- 54:45Speaker 6: the benefit of being the expert.
- 54:47Speaker 2: Yeah, So how did you get into investing four x crypto?
- 54:53Speaker 2: And you do some stocks too? Like what made you do?
- 54:56Speaker 2: Were you always into investing in your whole life?
- 54:58Speaker 6: Oh?
- 54:58Speaker 5: Nah, Man, I had a I had a mentor.
- 55:00Speaker 6: Initially I was kind of say at the beginning that
- 55:02Speaker 6: was like, you know, you've done well for yourself, but
- 55:04Speaker 6: you got to start having money work for you.
- 55:05Speaker 2: You did well for yourself, what were you doing?
- 55:07Speaker 6: I had an actually my own network marketing company, So
- 55:09Speaker 6: I had a netw marketing company myself before that, and
- 55:12Speaker 6: then I had that for like three and a half
- 55:14Speaker 6: four years. Then before that, I had a call center,
- 55:16Speaker 6: so it was the company I would call you. So
- 55:18Speaker 6: I had a contract with eight and T Verizon Direct Energy,
- 55:21Speaker 6: which is like with deregulation of energy, but on the
- 55:23Speaker 6: commercial side, merchant processing. I did that for like four
- 55:28Speaker 6: and a half years, and then I started off like
- 55:31Speaker 6: door to door seals, so you know whatever, I could
- 55:33Speaker 6: sell door to door, so you know, through those things,
- 55:36Speaker 6: I made good money. And I had a year and
- 55:40Speaker 6: a half that was real tough, like financially, and I
- 55:43Speaker 6: was like, dang, all that money that I had to
- 55:45Speaker 6: go through my hands, and I'm like, you know, and
- 55:47Speaker 6: I was like twenty two twenty three. That was the
- 55:51Speaker 6: first time I seen like seventy thousand months, eighty thousand
- 55:54Speaker 6: dollars months and stuff like that when I was selling,
- 55:55Speaker 6: and I was like, man, this is crazy. So I'm
- 55:57Speaker 6: just buying stuff, but I didn't know I had to
- 56:00Speaker 6: learn how to do the right things with my money
- 56:02Speaker 6: and be more disciplined. I didn't realize that just because
- 56:04Speaker 6: I make the money, it wasn't on mine. And so
- 56:06Speaker 6: I had to realize, Okay, you know what, just because
- 56:08Speaker 6: you make XYZ, that's not all yours. You gotta invest it,
- 56:11Speaker 6: you gotta pay taxes, you got to do all this stuff.
- 56:13Speaker 6: And so a gentleman came to me. He was like, listen,
- 56:15Speaker 6: you got learn this. And then my mentor, now David,
- 56:18Speaker 6: he came to me and he was like, listen, you know,
- 56:20Speaker 6: this is what we're doing with four X. And I
- 56:22Speaker 6: had me and my best friend we had went to
- 56:24Speaker 6: a like an online seminar. I forgot the name of
- 56:27Speaker 6: that company and they went out of business, now online
- 56:31Speaker 6: trading academy. They were really big. They were run ads
- 56:33Speaker 6: and stuff, and I was like, man, I really like
- 56:34Speaker 6: that for X thing. But it was like I think
- 56:36Speaker 6: their course was like thirteen thousand to thirty thousand, depend
- 56:39Speaker 6: on which one you got. And I was like, man,
- 56:40Speaker 6: I'm not really ready to put that kind of money
- 56:42Speaker 6: into it. So I just kind of put on a
- 56:44Speaker 6: whole And so when he came to me about this
- 56:45Speaker 6: investing thing, I was, I know, I got to learn investing.
- 56:47Speaker 5: It doesn't matter what I do.
- 56:49Speaker 6: It don't matter if I get into cars or anything else,
- 56:52Speaker 6: no matter, I got to take the money I'm making.
- 56:54Speaker 5: I got invested.
- 56:55Speaker 6: I knew that was a critical part of my life
- 56:57Speaker 6: because I didn't do that. The first time, I said,
- 56:59Speaker 6: I can't just spend it at all, and so I
- 57:01Speaker 6: got serious about it. So initially I was just doing
- 57:03Speaker 6: stuff like with my financial advisor, mutual funds, bonds.
- 57:06Speaker 5: And stuff like that, and you know, it's really good.
- 57:08Speaker 5: You know, it's safe. You know, like you know, if
- 57:10Speaker 5: she has a fifteen percent year, it's incredible. You know.
- 57:14Speaker 5: I'm like, Okay, that's great. But you know, you know,
- 57:16Speaker 5: stuff that we invested in, that's a good day. I'm saying.
- 57:20Speaker 6: I'm like, all right, it's not bad, but it's it
- 57:24Speaker 6: could be better, you know. But in that world, you know,
- 57:26Speaker 6: that's when I started looking at for us and like
- 57:28Speaker 6: people don't understand it because you know, I would have
- 57:30Speaker 6: people that were starting account with one hundred dollars and
- 57:32Speaker 6: they would make ten dollars and they're like, man, that's
- 57:34Speaker 6: no money. I'm like, but you make ten percent in
- 57:36Speaker 6: a day. My financial advisor might be trying to do
- 57:40Speaker 6: that for the whole year, and it's like, man, we do.
- 57:43Speaker 6: Most of the market went down by a lot and
- 57:45Speaker 6: we still managed to get ten percent. So when I
- 57:47Speaker 6: start seeing the potential in it, I was like, man,
- 57:49Speaker 6: what if what if a person could just learn to
- 57:50Speaker 6: be really consistent at getting ten percent or or fifteen
- 57:54Speaker 6: percent in a day in the market and grow it
- 57:57Speaker 6: in compound to be disciplined. That all that just trigued
- 58:00Speaker 6: me to really get serious about it, and so, you know,
- 58:02Speaker 6: growing from there to not really knowing.
- 58:04Speaker 5: That much about it.
- 58:05Speaker 6: The first wave of crypto, I didn't really have a
- 58:08Speaker 6: lot of money to invest into it. You know, I
- 58:10Speaker 6: had a few thousand in it, but I didn't have
- 58:12Speaker 6: a lot, and I was like, man, two things I
- 58:14Speaker 6: wanted to have happened the next market collapse because I
- 58:17Speaker 6: knew it was coming. I wanted to have money to
- 58:19Speaker 6: get into the market because I was you know, we
- 58:21Speaker 6: said it happened two thousand and seven. I was twenty
- 58:23Speaker 6: years old, so I didn't really have a ton of money.
- 58:25Speaker 6: Then I was just getting started. And then I was like, man,
- 58:27Speaker 6: this crypto thing come back around, I really want to
- 58:29Speaker 6: be able to take part in it. Because I was
- 58:31Speaker 6: at the beginning of it, I didn't know what I
- 58:32Speaker 6: was doing. So that's what got me interested in in
- 58:36Speaker 6: triggering into it. And I think I'm always going to
- 58:38Speaker 6: be with it now because like we said, man, I
- 58:40Speaker 6: don't know of a place you can make this kind
- 58:41Speaker 6: of money with no work, Like we literally get paid
- 58:44Speaker 6: to think, you know, like you put money out there
- 58:47Speaker 6: and cook up and you know that's what happens.
- 58:50Speaker 5: And I'm just I'm more now.
- 58:51Speaker 6: I've become passionate about teaching people about the mindset and
- 58:55Speaker 6: the philosophy of investing in business and stuff like that
- 58:59Speaker 6: versus just making the money, because I think if you
- 59:01Speaker 6: get anything just to make money, you'll feel we start
- 59:05Speaker 6: that way, you know, everybody starts away, but you got
- 59:07Speaker 6: I think you got to get passionate about really diving
- 59:09Speaker 6: into like you when I was talking to you, like
- 59:10Speaker 6: really diving into these companies.
- 59:12Speaker 5: And what everybody wants to hear is, man, how you.
- 59:14Speaker 6: Made fifty thousand a day? You made whatever today? Yeah,
- 59:16Speaker 6: but how did I get it? How did I know
- 59:19Speaker 6: to make that decision? And that's where the studying comes from,
- 59:21Speaker 6: That's where the time comes from. And so if you're
- 59:24Speaker 6: looking to get into force anything else for that matter,
- 59:26Speaker 6: you're just trying to get rich, I would say, get
- 59:28Speaker 6: excited about the education and the knowledge, because that's what's
- 59:31Speaker 6: going to bring you to money.
- 59:31Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 59:32Speaker 1: I think that was one of the best things in
- 59:33Speaker 1: during our comms it was like a two hour conversation,
- 59:35Speaker 1: but it was like your knowledge was like, Yo, thank
- 59:39Speaker 1: you for teaching me this. Now I got to go
- 59:41Speaker 1: do the work. And then true trust and fashion you
- 59:44Speaker 1: ran to play. Yeah, you ran to play. And so
- 59:47Speaker 1: that's empowering. And I know one of your goals for
- 59:50Speaker 1: the past couple of years is like, Yo, I want
- 59:51Speaker 1: to create more people that are making these type of
- 59:55Speaker 1: decisions and actually running plays. And so I know you
- 59:57Speaker 1: said you want to create a one hundred chairmen and
- 1:00:00Speaker 1: how many six figures?
- 1:00:01Speaker 5: Yeah, and six figure traders, yeah, one hundred, one hundred.
- 1:00:04Speaker 3: One hundred hundred. Yeah, talk about that.
- 1:00:06Speaker 2: Yeah.
- 1:00:06Speaker 6: You know, for me, it's it's uh, it's it's I
- 1:00:10Speaker 6: think you got to have an environment where people really
- 1:00:13Speaker 6: believe things can happen for them. And so that's what
- 1:00:15Speaker 6: we've been able to create, you know, with our company,
- 1:00:17Speaker 6: and we gotta we got a simple, you know platform
- 1:00:20Speaker 6: that teaches people the skill set. I'm personally really passionate
- 1:00:23Speaker 6: about teaching people about leadership because I think you you know,
- 1:00:26Speaker 6: leadership sets the tone for everything, you know, in every company,
- 1:00:30Speaker 6: every country, as we just saw here in America, there's
- 1:00:32Speaker 6: a lot of things that you know, just leadership is
- 1:00:35Speaker 6: really important. So I teach people a lot about that.
- 1:00:37Speaker 6: I'm working on like an ebook that come out for
- 1:00:39Speaker 6: that as well. So people have really been able to
- 1:00:40Speaker 6: learn the stuff that I've learned because I learned it.
- 1:00:42Speaker 6: It wasn't I didn't come in as a leader, But
- 1:00:45Speaker 6: it's teaching you know, people the right things because what
- 1:00:48Speaker 6: a lot of times what people don't understand what leadership
- 1:00:51Speaker 6: is that you can be. You have good leaders and
- 1:00:52Speaker 6: bad leaders. And I'm not saying poor leaders, but like
- 1:00:55Speaker 6: you know, Hitler was a great leader, he was a
- 1:00:57Speaker 6: bad person, and so you've got to learned the right
- 1:01:00Speaker 6: skill sets, but you've also got to make sure you
- 1:01:02Speaker 6: got the right principles to go with it. And so
- 1:01:04Speaker 6: teaching people those things. And then as we're getting the money,
- 1:01:08Speaker 6: I'm really you know, I stayed down for a long time.
- 1:01:10Speaker 6: Like a lot of things I'm doing now I could
- 1:01:12Speaker 6: have did a long time ago real, but I really
- 1:01:16Speaker 6: couldn't afford it, though, I like I could have from
- 1:01:19Speaker 6: the money I was making. But I remember I talked
- 1:01:21Speaker 6: to my financial a Virs, and we was just talking
- 1:01:22Speaker 6: about this Rolex and she was like, you can't afford it,
- 1:01:25Speaker 6: And at the time, I was making like thirty some thousands.
- 1:01:28Speaker 5: I canna afford it. It's only twenty two thousand.
- 1:01:30Speaker 3: We got this conversation the other day.
- 1:01:32Speaker 5: It was like, no you can't. I'm like, I can't.
- 1:01:35Speaker 6: She's like, no, you can't, and then she started breaking
- 1:01:37Speaker 6: it down and telling me why. I was like, man,
- 1:01:38Speaker 6: I needed somebody in my ear like this before. And
- 1:01:41Speaker 6: then when I did it, I felt great about it.
- 1:01:43Speaker 6: I was like, man, Okay, now I really I really
- 1:01:45Speaker 6: could have did it because now it's easy for me
- 1:01:48Speaker 6: to be able to do and so I think that's
- 1:01:50Speaker 6: the thing we got to start teaching people. It's like, yeah,
- 1:01:53Speaker 6: there's a time and place to do stuff, and you
- 1:01:55Speaker 6: know a lot of the flash and all that stuff,
- 1:01:57Speaker 6: that stuff ain't going anywhere. But you know, like I
- 1:02:00Speaker 6: was talking to somebody early, I was like, man, how
- 1:02:02Speaker 6: many of y'all spent three thousand, four thousand hours on
- 1:02:05Speaker 6: something last year?
- 1:02:05Speaker 5: And everybody raised the hand. I'm like, if you would
- 1:02:07Speaker 5: have knew.
- 1:02:07Speaker 6: That, if you would have put that three that four
- 1:02:09Speaker 6: thousand into bitcoin, it could have turned to forty. So
- 1:02:14Speaker 6: now what you didn't realize is that the outfit that
- 1:02:16Speaker 6: you bought that cost forty four thousand. It didn't really
- 1:02:18Speaker 6: cost you four thousand. It really cost you forty because
- 1:02:21Speaker 6: you missed out on that growth that you.
- 1:02:24Speaker 3: Opportunity, growth potential on.
- 1:02:25Speaker 6: Yeah, and so that's the thing if we start understanding
- 1:02:28Speaker 6: that as a group and the people like I. My
- 1:02:31Speaker 6: first four x account I took, it was a two
- 1:02:33Speaker 6: hundred dollars account. In the two and a half weeks,
- 1:02:36Speaker 6: I grew up to three thousand, and at the time,
- 1:02:39Speaker 6: my friend I was really big into video games. I
- 1:02:41Speaker 6: don't know if y'all play video games. I'm on video
- 1:02:43Speaker 6: games though, Like Madden, I listen, I was a beast.
- 1:02:49Speaker 3: No, no, I was not NBA Live.
- 1:02:50Speaker 5: Okay, okay, NBA Like, yeah, that was cold too.
- 1:02:52Speaker 3: But Madden matt All was top thousand. I got to
- 1:02:54Speaker 3: a top thousand.
- 1:02:55Speaker 6: Okay, strong, but like, you know what you got to
- 1:02:57Speaker 6: go to to get to the elite level a year?
- 1:03:00Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, and that's why I stopped playing. Yeah, No,
- 1:03:02Speaker 1: I couldn't be leading anymore.
- 1:03:04Speaker 6: I got rid of my Xbox and my friend was like, bro,
- 1:03:06Speaker 6: you can afford the Xbox.
- 1:03:07Speaker 5: I'm like, you know, you don't understand.
- 1:03:09Speaker 6: It's not about the two hundred dollars that it costs
- 1:03:11Speaker 6: three hundred dollars at the cost is.
- 1:03:13Speaker 5: What it could have been if it was in my
- 1:03:14Speaker 5: investment account.
- 1:03:16Speaker 6: And I think if we start getting people on that now,
- 1:03:17Speaker 6: like I ain't gonna lie I bought a controller, you
- 1:03:19Speaker 6: know what I'm saying. So so I go to my friends,
- 1:03:21Speaker 6: I got a controller. But I was like, man, I
- 1:03:23Speaker 6: gotta I gotta really start teaching people to stuff. But
- 1:03:25Speaker 6: I had to be the example of it in my
- 1:03:26Speaker 6: own life. And so now my groups starts seeing like
- 1:03:29Speaker 6: people that work with me, people in my business, they say, man,
- 1:03:31Speaker 6: Justin could have really did this a long time ago,
- 1:03:33Speaker 6: but he waited. Now makes you feel uncomfortable doing something early,
- 1:03:38Speaker 6: like the stuff my mentor has done, Like it was
- 1:03:39Speaker 6: I was telling y'all like man, he' said million dollar
- 1:03:41Speaker 6: day and stuff. I'm like, man, this is crazy, Like
- 1:03:43Speaker 6: how can I even brag by the stuff I'm doing
- 1:03:45Speaker 6: when you know what I'm saying, like you chilling with levels?
- 1:03:48Speaker 6: It's levels, And that's what I think. We got to
- 1:03:51Speaker 6: keep getting people around Like I'm looking at your investments like, okay, yeah,
- 1:03:54Speaker 6: we got to keep doing this, but it's not me.
- 1:03:58Speaker 6: But but think about it, what did this conversations used
- 1:04:00Speaker 6: to be like, oh, let me look at your fitt
- 1:04:01Speaker 6: Oh man, you got Jay's, I gotta go get those.
- 1:04:04Speaker 6: What if we made those conversations where it's like, man,
- 1:04:06Speaker 6: your investment account and I gotta get that. Man a knowledge,
- 1:04:09Speaker 6: I got to go get that, and that becomes the
- 1:04:10Speaker 6: thing that's cool and that's popular. I believe, entrepreneurs, investors,
- 1:04:16Speaker 6: we're gonna be the people over the next few years
- 1:04:17Speaker 6: getting the shoe deals, getting the endorsements, because that's where
- 1:04:21Speaker 6: everything is really going. We have a platform where, you know,
- 1:04:26Speaker 6: that's trying to be funny.
- 1:04:27Speaker 5: You don't have to be.
- 1:04:27Speaker 3: An athlete, rapper, athlete.
- 1:04:30Speaker 6: You know, and really like even the clothing line came
- 1:04:32Speaker 6: from living in Atlanta being I'm six five and you
- 1:04:36Speaker 6: got a nice car.
- 1:04:37Speaker 5: That's the first thing people ask, Hey, man, you play ball? No,
- 1:04:41Speaker 5: you rap? No, what do you do? And they're thinking
- 1:04:45Speaker 5: sell drugs? That's us.
- 1:04:47Speaker 6: I'm like, no, But you know, there's people that don't
- 1:04:51Speaker 6: look like me, and if they have a nice car,
- 1:04:52Speaker 6: that's not what the first.
- 1:04:53Speaker 5: Thing they think.
- 1:04:53Speaker 6: And I think one of the things that we got
- 1:04:56Speaker 6: to do and we're doing, is changing the stereotype of
- 1:04:58Speaker 6: what successful's like in our community and that you can
- 1:05:01Speaker 6: be an investor, you can be smart, and you can
- 1:05:02Speaker 6: still have a hoodie and some jeans. But you you
- 1:05:04Speaker 6: got this and that's the piece nobody can ever take
- 1:05:06Speaker 6: away from us.
- 1:05:08Speaker 2: That's a fact. That's a fact. So what's up? What's
- 1:05:11Speaker 2: next for you? We're showing your vision board for twenty
- 1:05:14Speaker 2: twenty one. What projects are you working on? Yeah, talk
- 1:05:19Speaker 2: about that.
- 1:05:19Speaker 5: Yeah, a couple of things. Bro, I got you know,
- 1:05:22Speaker 5: I got the clothing line me and mister two weeks
- 1:05:25Speaker 5: out I think.
- 1:05:27Speaker 3: I love my God.
- 1:05:28Speaker 6: So we're grown the entrepreneurship clothing line and so we're
- 1:05:32Speaker 6: investing a lot into that. Actually just invested into some
- 1:05:36Speaker 6: medical transportation companies. So but probably by the time this
- 1:05:39Speaker 6: is out, you know, I have that that'll be like public.
- 1:05:42Speaker 5: So you know what I'm saying, say so that that's
- 1:05:45Speaker 5: gonna be uh, that's gonna be dope.
- 1:05:48Speaker 6: And uh yeah, now I'm gonna get more into like
- 1:05:51Speaker 6: I'm not I don't of course is not really gonna
- 1:05:53Speaker 6: be my thing, but like, I got a leadership playbook
- 1:05:55Speaker 6: that's gonna be coming out because everything's like roun to play.
- 1:05:57Speaker 5: I got a leadership playbook that's gonna be coming out
- 1:05:59Speaker 5: just teach people.
- 1:06:00Speaker 6: It's a lot of things I learned, and like building businesses,
- 1:06:02Speaker 6: working with people, communicating with people, because that's that's a
- 1:06:05Speaker 6: skill that's that's necessary, you know, because I've seen people
- 1:06:08Speaker 6: that had great talent, but they were terrible with people
- 1:06:10Speaker 6: and they still fail. And so it's helping people become
- 1:06:13Speaker 6: better with communication, better with leadership.
- 1:06:15Speaker 5: And so I've got a whole, a whole.
- 1:06:18Speaker 6: Line up of things that are coming out and then
- 1:06:19Speaker 6: just just grown this investment portfolio.
- 1:06:21Speaker 2: Bro that said shot out to the circle of CEOs,
- 1:06:24Speaker 2: want to talk about that?
- 1:06:25Speaker 5: Yeah?
- 1:06:25Speaker 6: Man, you know, it was organic, you know, I think
- 1:06:27Speaker 6: that's the thing that was best about it. Nobody was
- 1:06:29Speaker 6: trying to come together. It wasn't even a thing that
- 1:06:32Speaker 6: we were trying to come together and do. It was
- 1:06:34Speaker 6: just brothers that was doing well and we're like, hey, man,
- 1:06:36Speaker 6: let's meet every week and let's just brainstorm sheer ideas.
- 1:06:39Speaker 5: And it just became something that was really cool.
- 1:06:41Speaker 6: And so now we got a circle of CEOs that
- 1:06:46Speaker 6: literally totally different lines of business, Like nobody does the
- 1:06:49Speaker 6: same thing, but everybody's went in their own right, but
- 1:06:52Speaker 6: we had the same heart for people and that was
- 1:06:53Speaker 6: helping them and pouring into the community giving back, but
- 1:06:57Speaker 6: not just being examples in business. We want to be
- 1:07:01Speaker 6: examples when it comes to being a great father and
- 1:07:03Speaker 6: the great you know, significant other or whatever the case
- 1:07:05Speaker 6: may be.
- 1:07:05Speaker 5: It's just it's just making sure that we become a
- 1:07:07Speaker 5: leader on all levels.
