  Speaker 1: Sign their name on the thing, so it's done. It's official.
• 0:03
  Speaker 2: Were you on vacation when they called you that it was.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Done, We were we were gonna leave, so it kind
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: of didn't become official, I guess, but greed on everything
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Thursday and that came out, and then we were trying
• 0:15
  Speaker 1: to like push to get done Friday because we were
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: leaving to go on vacation with Marissa's family, so we
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: were like waiting. We were gonna leave in the morning,
• 0:23
  Speaker 1: but then we thought it would get done, so we
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: waited and waited, and then it was a lot of
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: you believe it or not, it's a lot of pages
• 0:28
  Speaker 1: of contract to read through for I didn't read through
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: all of it. I got an agent for that. But
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: it's a lot of paperwork. So we didn't get it
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: done in time. So now here we are, so it's
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: all right. It could wait a few days.
• 0:40
  Speaker 2: That significantly of the anti father's sake gifts her.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: Well, I used the excuse that I haven't signed it yet,
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: so it's I gotta wait till it's done. Now it's
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: a that's a good point it should have, so maybe
• 0:53
  Speaker 1: we need to reconsider that.
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: I think it's grown and grown and grown. Now after this,
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: does it have to grow exponentially?
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, that's a good question for next year
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: because that funny you bring that up. We're actually I'm
• 1:08
  Speaker 1: going to play in the American Century Golf Deal this year,
• 1:11
  Speaker 1: so that's kind of the time we do our trips.
• 1:13
  Speaker 1: So I'm gonna get a couple of guys in town
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: and hang out here and we'll work out and golf
• 1:18
  Speaker 1: and maybe take a boat out or something. But next year,
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: for sure, we'll get back on track and get that going.
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: This has been a crazy offseason obviously trying to get
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: that done, and like I said, the golf deal coming up.
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: But yeah, that's gonna have to get better every year
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: like it had. It has done that already, so we'll
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: have to take another step this year for sure.
• 1:36
  Speaker 3: In terms of I mean, you're tied to Jacksonville now
• 1:39
  Speaker 3: for pre linked and I think you guys are building
• 1:41
  Speaker 3: a house here, right, Does it mean more that you
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: know that it's some sort of financial security for a
• 1:48
  Speaker 3: long time and you're tied to the franchise.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think obviously financially it's it's amazing and really
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: sets us up for the future and for you know,
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: the rest of our lives. So that's that's a huge blessing. Obviously,
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: that's a big deal. But I think even more than
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: that is this stability of, like you said, being here
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: for the long term. I mean, whoever, however many years
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: it ends up being, I guess could be seven, could
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: be however many it ends up being. Is still it's
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: a long time and to be able to say we're
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: going to be here and have confidence and know that
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: that means a lot to us. And we love it here.
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: It's become home. Our families love it, families love visiting here,
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: and we've really settled in this is this is home
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: for us, So we wanted to be here long term. Obviously.
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: You know it's a place we love to live in.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: And we know that because you know, we've had some
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: some good and some bad times as far as football goes,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: so it's you know, we've kind of experienced both and
• 2:40
  Speaker 1: we love being here either way. And obviously the way
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: the organization's going in the direction that we're heading on
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: the football side, that makes it obviously a no brainer
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: for us. Is you know, we're heading the right direction.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: And I want to be the quarterback here. I want
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: to bring a championship to Jacksonville. That's my goal and
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: I really know that we can accomplish that. So I'm
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: excited for that. And you know, it just pairs up
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: to where we happen to love living here too. So
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: is your shoulder now that it's out of the way
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: a little yeah, definitely a little bit of a relief
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: and just you know, I should shouldn't even say relief, obviously,
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: it's a huge blessing or excited, but to have it
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: done and kind of behind us to where you can
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: just move forward and go play and get ready for
• 3:24
  Speaker 1: training camp instead of you know thinking, you know, in
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: the back of your mind that it didn't get done,
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: and you know, I guess that that season obviously, every
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: season's big, but I think it feels good to know,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: like I said, I'm gonna be here and have that stability.
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: But yeah, I mean it doesn't really change too much,
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: but it does feel good to have it done. That
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: was a goal that you know, the team and myself
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: and my team wanted to get done. Is to have it,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: you know, finished by the time training camp came around,
• 3:49
  Speaker 1: so we could just you know, put everything towards this
• 3:52
  Speaker 1: year and and getting ready to go bring a championship.
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: Here was the moment, like when you got to call
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: either from grade or whoever. It said, Okay, it's done.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: Where righty you go?
• 4:01
  Speaker 3: Like were you here working out?
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: Like where were I was was not my house? It
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: was last It was a week ago today that it
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: kind of got and it was head that way all week.
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: You know, I was getting updates from my agent and
• 4:11
  Speaker 1: we were talking about where it was. I knew we
• 4:12
  Speaker 1: were getting pretty close, so I felt confident that it
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: would get done. Didn't know exactly when you know, those
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: things kind of it's weird. It's kind of like nothing, nothing, nothing,
• 4:21
  Speaker 1: and then ramps up like last minute. So it's interesting
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: how it kind of works out. But I felt good
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: we were gonna get done that, you know, not necessarily
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: last week, but that week I knew that we were
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: heading in the right direction. So yeah, it was really
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: exciting when when he told me, all right, here's here's
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: where we're at, and you know, I think this is
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: we're about done with it. So yeah, I was super
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: super pumped. And it feels good to obviously I say
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: accomplished that. It feels good to to really be backed
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: by the organization and you know, mister Kahn and and
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: Trent and everyone involved and making these decisions of you know,
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: who you sign long term, who you keep around. Just
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: grateful for them and that they, you know, see that
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: in me and they want me to be the quarterback here,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: and obviously that's what I want, and but it takes
• 5:06
  Speaker 1: two to tango. So I'm grateful that they see the
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: value in me, and I really feel confident in what
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: we can accomplish here.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: It's an added pressure that comes with it.
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: Obviously, right, I think it is what you make it.
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: I think I'm playing quarterback in this league is pressure anyways.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: So yeah, I guess on the outside, there's going to
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: be a bigger expectation, you know, with the you know,
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: with the long term deal and being the franchise quarterback
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: and you know, having the contract to I guess say
• 5:33
  Speaker 1: that it might change how other people look at it,
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: But for me, I think I've had that. I've kind
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: of carried that responsibility anyways. Being a starting quarterback in
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: this league is a big responsibility and the team goes
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: as you go, and I know that, and that's a
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: big responsibility. So I'm not going to add any pressure
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: to myself just based on getting this this contract, it
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: doesn't really change what I expect of myself and what
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: the team expects to me. I mean, whether this got
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: done or not, you know, mister Kahn, Trent Doug, everyone,
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: all the coaches expect me to play well and too,
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: and like I said, to bring a championship here eventually.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: So I know that's the that's the end goal and
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: that's what I'm here for. So now this is done,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: it doesn't really change that. But you know, like I said,
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: maybe from the outside of it will a little bit,
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: but not for me.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: Did anyone reach out to you that meant something to you, uh,
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: you know, to congratulate you anything like that, former teammates,
• 6:28
  Speaker 2: coaches or anything.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: Yeah, a lot of you know, current teammates here that
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: you know had some had some really nice things to say,
• 6:37
  Speaker 1: and we're just congratulating me family. Former coaches, Like you said,
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: a lot of former coaches reached out and it's cool
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: to you know, you don't there's so much going on
• 6:48
  Speaker 1: you don't always think about It's hard to think about
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: every single person that has helped you along the way.
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: But having people reach out kind of like triggers little
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: memories of whether it's quarterback coach and high school, or
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: quarterback coach in college, or coach Sweeney or am a
• 7:02
  Speaker 1: head coach in high school or whatever it is. You know,
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: you kind of think about all the people that have
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: helped you accomplish everything that you've accomplished and to get
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: to this point. So it is kind of cool getting
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: those texts and thinking back on some good memories with
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: them and everything they've done for you.
• 7:18
  Speaker 2: The contract is sort of the final leadership component. Obviously
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: playing quarterback as a major part of that too. But
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: does this now give you full confidence that the message
• 7:27
  Speaker 2: has been clearly said that when you talk, teammates need
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: to listen.
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: I think I've you know, I think I've earned that
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: respect over time here anyways, But you know, not really.
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: I think that I look at myself as that anyways,
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: as a franchise quarterback, and that's how I've tried to
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: carry myself the last few years. And I'm a firm believer.
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: And you have to earn respect and you have to
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: prove it on the field in this sport. I mean,
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: end of the day, there's a lot of guys. I mean,
• 7:56
  Speaker 1: you can you can respect people, but you're only going
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: to listen to someone so much if they're not holding
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: up there into the deal in the field. So I
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: understand that those two things go hand in hand. Is
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: there anything respect and having the work ethic to back
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: it up and then producing. So those are two things
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: that you know, I want to do more consistently, But
• 8:15
  Speaker 1: I feel like I have done and I have proven
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: myself to my teammates and proven the leader that I am.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: So I have a lot of confidence in that, and
• 8:23
  Speaker 1: I know my teammates respect me. And we have a
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: lot of leaders on the team. And it's obviously being
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: the quarterback is a big one and you looked at
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: as the leader, but we have other guys too that
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: whether it's on the defensive side of the bar or whatever,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: that have to carry their weight. And we have a
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: great leadership group. Actually that's kind of been talking a
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: lot this offseason and we know kind of the next
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: step we need to take to get us to where
• 8:44
  Speaker 1: we want to go.
• 8:44
  Speaker 3: What does it mean you to see teammates say how
• 8:47
  Speaker 3: hard do you work to earn your deal? That's kind
• 8:49
  Speaker 3: of inspiring them to maybe take that next step. What
• 8:51
  Speaker 3: does that mean to you?
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: Means a lot? You know, I think it's, like I
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: was just saying it, just it proves that I guess
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: the way I look at things and the way I
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: try to handle my business works, and that it, you know,
• 9:04
  Speaker 1: it shows to my teammates, and that's something that's important
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: to me more so than obviously the contract or anything.
• 9:10
  Speaker 1: Is just earning the respect of the people that you
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: work with, and whether it's coaches or players. That's a
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: huge piece of this is having that respect, and I
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: you know, it shows that I'm doing something right. Obviously
• 9:23
  Speaker 1: I'm not perfect, you know, you gotta always get better,
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: and I know I can do things better on the
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: field and be more consistent. But to show that, you know,
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: I'm handling myself the right way off the field, and
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: that I have I have made an impact on some
• 9:35
  Speaker 1: of my teammates does mean a lot to me.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: To you what was maybe one of the funniest things
• 9:42
  Speaker 2: someone says, the funniest things, I know, like high school
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: buddies must have been all over you know what I mean.
• 9:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm kind of think of the funniest thing someone
• 9:52
  Speaker 1: said to me. I mean, there's been there's been a
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: lot of We're just like I said in vacation with
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: mrsus family, and obviously there's a lot of a lot
• 10:00
  Speaker 1: of jokes around and I think one of my buddies
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: said he was like, congrats on your new two dollars
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: an hour raise or something like that, Like he texted
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: me right when it was done, one of my good buddies.
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: So stuff like that is just just funny. Our teammates
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: are gonna, oh Man training camp is like they're gonna
• 10:19
  Speaker 1: they're gonna kill me in the first few days back
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: for it.
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: The nature of the contract fever is interesting because it
• 10:25
  Speaker 2: won't go into a fact until basically two years from now.
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: So I'm not sure how involved you were with number
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: of years. Was this something you said to your agent,
• 10:33
  Speaker 2: like we're looking at a ten year, we're looking at
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: a five year If you had any involvement in.
• 10:37
  Speaker 1: That started as a fifteen year No, no, no, uh yeah,
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: being a walker going out of here. Uh no, it
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: was it kind of I guess, I don't know. For us,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: it was always the same range. It was, you know,
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: just full transparent. It was four to five years somewhere
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: in there. Obviously, there's been some deals that have been long,
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: like you know, look at Patrick's or even Josh Allens
• 11:04
  Speaker 1: was I think six years or something like that, But
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: I knew we wanted to be here, and there's always
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: like a balancing act of however many years you do
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: sometimes that can put the team in a better position,
• 11:16
  Speaker 1: which is great. You know, that was our goal, which
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: I'm glad I feel like we were able to accomplish.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: Was obviously there was a certain amount that as a player,
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: you know, you want to make and you want to
• 11:27
  Speaker 1: be in the market value all of those things, but
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: you also want to keep the team in a good
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: position to where we can, you know, pay other guys
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: and have players around me and do all those things
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: and from a salary cap perspective, and I don't know,
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: I don't know how all that works, but just felt
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: like my agent and trenton the whole front office did
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: a good job of kind of maneuvering all those things
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: where it felt like felt like we all won in
• 11:49
  Speaker 1: the end, and it puts us in a position to
• 11:51
  Speaker 1: where we can still have a lot of talent here.
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: We can bring guys in, or we can keep the
• 11:55
  Speaker 1: guys that we have. That was something that was important
• 11:58
  Speaker 1: to me because I didn't want to I wasn't worth
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: it to me to sacrifice, you know, being able to
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: have a good team just so I can make some money.
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: So I felt like it was we were able to
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: balance that, and you know, really, I thought we did
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: a good job of getting to a point to where
• 12:13
  Speaker 1: I felt like in the future, we we have some
• 12:16
  Speaker 1: room and we can really still continue to have good
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: players around you know, myself and then defensively on that
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: side of the ball too, So I'm excited about that.
• 12:23
  Speaker 3: What is it about the direction.
• 12:25
  Speaker 2: Of the organization that makes you feel comfortable signing on
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: for so long?
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: You know, I love I love our head coach, Coach
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: Pearson's done a great job press our offensive coordinator, you know,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: the staff that we have in place. I feel really
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: confident in the system. I feel like every year, you know,
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: I've gotten better and better in the system, and I
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: know this year is going to be a big year
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: to keep improving. But I feel really confident in that.
• 12:48
  Speaker 1: Like I said, just the overall team that we have,
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: the leadership on the team. As far as players, we
• 12:55
  Speaker 1: have such a good group and I think the group
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: that we a lot of the guys we brought in
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: two years ago was their first year. You talk about
• 13:01
  Speaker 1: like Evan and Christian and trying to think of who
• 13:04
  Speaker 1: else was in that class. Those are two guys on
• 13:06
  Speaker 1: the Sheriff Yeah, Sheriff was there, Foyer on the defensive side,
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: all those guys name a bunch more. That kind of
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: felt like we started to build this thing from the
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: ground up in twenty two, and then last year continue
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: to grow and then this year, like I said, the
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: free agents and the draft that we got, I'm really
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: excited about. I think this is definitely the best team
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: that we've had here in my eyes, just at this
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: point in the year from what I've seen if, I
• 13:34
  Speaker 1: feel very confident in that. So yeah, I think all
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: those things and the building blocks that we have and
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: the I guess players that you build around, the type
• 13:43
  Speaker 1: of leaders and the type of people, that's what I
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: feel the most confidence and really is the we have
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: good people here, and I think that's important to having success.
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: You and Josh long term deals in the same offseason.
• 13:54
  Speaker 3: Does that kind of point to that building toward the
• 13:57
  Speaker 3: future and the vision for the franchise.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's huge obviously to get those done,
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: and what Josh I mean, I think it's just big
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: to reward guys for you know, playing really well, especially
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: in a situation like Josh. You know, he had to
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: have a great year last year and he did it.
• 14:16
  Speaker 1: I mean he had what seventeen sacks, I don't know
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: what the number was, and to really be able to
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: do that and put his best foot forward this point
• 14:24
  Speaker 1: in his career, and I feel like he's getting He's
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: gotten better every year. It's exciting and I think he
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: built around that. And like I said, Josh, there's Foyer, Evan,
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: Christian Sheriff. I mean, there's so many guys that you
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: could point to, Cisco, Tyson, Campbell that all over the
• 14:40
  Speaker 1: all over the field that I think bring something unique
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: to the table that we need. But of course Josh
• 14:45
  Speaker 1: is a big one on defense and having a guy
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: that for us two, we're gonna be here and we've
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: you know, got the contract where we're kind of gonna
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: align as far as the time we're gonna be here,
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: and we know we can we can count on that,
• 14:56
  Speaker 1: and I think it's important for us to be on
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: the same page, which we have been of just eating
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: and kind of what the message is for the team
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: and how we want to how we want to carry
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: ourselves because we're going to be here for a while.
• 15:06
  Speaker 3: Remember, be aside that you and Doug in an American's effort.
• 15:09
  Speaker 1: We need to go. That's a great idea. Actually I
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: need to before I do that, I got to make
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: sure I'm playing well because he's pretty good.
• 15:17
  Speaker 3: So we'll just just just to motivate you. Last year
• 15:21
  Speaker 3: he finished ahead of my home's Josh Allen.
• 15:24
  Speaker 1: So oh yeah, okay, yeah, all right, that's good to know.
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: Did I beat him? Did I beat coach Augusta? Uh No,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: I don't think so. It was close, though, I think yeah,
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: I think I think we tied the second day he
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: beat me. I think he beat me by one stroke.
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: The first day though, it's as close. But yeah, didn't
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: have to bring that up.
• 15:47
  Speaker 3: Crept Generational wealth is a phrase that comes up, right,
• 15:50
  Speaker 3: So is there anyone you've maybe taken advice from or
• 15:52
  Speaker 3: anyone that's reached out to you to kind of better
• 15:54
  Speaker 3: understand how to handle that, especially with all the money
• 15:58
  Speaker 3: and the next things that are going to change in
• 16:00
  Speaker 3: your life outside of the field.
• 16:02
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I think I have a great financial
• 16:05
  Speaker 1: team around me that's done a good job of you know,
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: I've been I've been really blessed to make a decent
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: amount of money even before this, so I feel like
• 16:14
  Speaker 1: that was important to have in place already. So I
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: really have a lot of faith and trust in that,
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: and just I think having family, good family and friends
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: around you too. That's the biggest thing is people that
• 16:26
  Speaker 1: you trust, that are around you for the right reasons,
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: and that love you and care about you. Regardless of
• 16:32
  Speaker 1: how much money you make. It doesn't really I mean,
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: I've always said it's a blessing, and you know it's
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: don't want to sound insensitive because to people that maybe
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: don't have the finances, it is a big deal and
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: it means a lot, and it gives you freedom. But
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: at the end of the day, it's just money. I mean,
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: it's you can you can buy stuff with it, I
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: mean other than that, and you can help people, but
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: it doesn't change you are as a person. So yes,
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: it's amazing and I'm very grateful. And you would think,
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: I guess it's It's interesting how you would think you'd
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: feel more when you get I guess you accomplished this
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: and you're you're gonna make a bunch of money, but
• 17:10
  Speaker 1: it doesn't change who you are in any way, So
• 17:13
  Speaker 1: it just kind of, I guess, can exaggerate or amplify
• 17:16
  Speaker 1: who you already are. So I've always believed in that.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: And it's just money at the end of the day,
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: you know, you can what are you gonna do? Just
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: you can buy more stuff with it. I mean, that's
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: it's not you know, I'm grateful though I don't want
• 17:28
  Speaker 1: to sound insensitive to you know, people that might struggle
• 17:31
  Speaker 1: and don't have the finances, But at the end of
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: the day, I think that's a good perspective to keep
