Speaker 2I mean that's the main thing.
Speaker 1I don't want to work for nobody. I don't want nobody to tell me kind of, you know, I mean I can take you know, orders and stuff like that, but I always kind of wanted to do my own thing. So that's just. You know where that kind of stops it, you know, and I don't want to put my money on like an hourly thing. I wanted to do my own thing when I you know, when I wanted to. So that's where that kind of worked out. But I've always been like a hustler, like even as like a little kid selling candy at elementary schools and you know, hogs and all that. Oh yeah, hogs, hell yeah. So you had the candy house. So you had the candy house. No, I just had the. I didn't have the candy house, I just had the candy duffel bags.

Like something you had, like Just be wary about, like hiring family, okay, so you'll just bump heads. You know what I'm saying. Not saying that they're you know wrong or right. It's just like they've known you for your whole life.

Speaker 1They definitely try to take advantage of the tie.
Speaker 3Yeah, they try to, yeah, they try to. That's why them are the ones you got to watch out for.

Is that like closer towards the Texas border? Yeah, about two hours from El Paso? All right, yeah, ain't too far from there. They used to drive big rigs too, so they used to hit a lot of them.
Speaker 3I don't recommend that to you.
Speaker 2Big rigs. That's good money, I know, but I don't recommend it.
Speaker 1Yeah, you just had it for a backup plan. That's why I still got my CDL. If you didn't know, these are the big rig nigs.
Speaker 3Y'all get it in then, huh yeah.
Speaker 1I mess with that. Yeah, I've been having my CDL for a while too, so you know it's just a backup plan. You know what I'm saying. Like you can always fall back on that.
Building Multiple Business Ventures
Speaker 2That's what's up, man.
Speaker 1Yeah, just a safety net.
Speaker 2That's a hell of a backup.
Speaker 1Hell yeah shit. You can get homeless, you can live in a truck.
Speaker 2All that, that's facts.
Speaker 1What you saying? Microphones to the shirts, to the headphones, everything that you see on the inside of this studio has been moved with a truck, so gotta get some money off. That, this is true. This is true. Uh, how many, uh, how many siblings do you have? Seven of us, seven, yeah, and I got like about 37 nieces and nephews. Oh yeah, we deep bro you ever meet with the.
Speaker 1Wayans. I mean, they could try. You know what I'm saying. Like shit, that's a dope answer. Yeah, they could try. You know shit, reddit. You know what I'm saying. Come on, wayans, we with it. You know when you at. In the age order, though, I'm third. I got two older sisters and it's twins, and then my younger sister and younger brother.
Speaker 3Okay, so you're the oldest, so he went to school with the twins jessica and joseph, and she went to school with oh, you did as well, yeah I'm all three as well.
Speaker 2Yeah, checked up.
Speaker 1Yeah, I think joe was over here at one point when I first moved here oh, my brother joe, yeah, oh yeah, wow boy somewhere.
Speaker 1Then he was like we was talking about. He was like oh, this is a different part of Beaumont, I'm over here, oh yeah. Yeah, he was living out here for a while too. I think he was out here for maybe like five, six years. Yeah, that's when we bumped into each other somewhere. We were like home people or some shit doing something. So how, just a lot of it, though, man, what with being the oldest boy, like how's that? Like you got a whole lot of game to trickle down, yeah.
Speaker 2But I mean, like everybody, we all kind of bounce stuff off each other, yeah because so much of us is just like, yeah, making a whole business out of it.
Speaker 1We all bounce ideas off of each other and all that other stuff or whatever we all motivate each other to do. You know, positive shit. You know what I'm saying. It's not all good, but I mean you know, yeah, we work together as much as possible.
Speaker 1So you know, moms and pops kind of put us in a situation like Us Against the World, type shit. So you know, so that's where you think you guys get it from, Because you got it's a lot of, like I said, you do a lot of community, like the giveaways and stuff Driven and stuff like that. Like, is that where you think you get that from? Yeah, I mean, with the thrift store stuff, man, I get so much stuff that the community pours in to me it's like why not just give?
Speaker 2the stuff back Because I'm going to get it 10 times over. You know what?
Speaker 1I'm saying so it's not going to stop, it's going to keep coming, keep coming. So it's like why not a couple times a year, just open up the thrift store doors and just whoever wants something, just get it. So you know, and I and I'm not the type of person to like blast it out, like, oh, hey, this guy came and got such and such or whatever. I just keep everything low-key. They message me and I'll be like come and get it.
Speaker 1You know, I'm saying I have my workers open up the thrift store. Hey, this person is coming in to get a full bedroom set or couches and all that other stuff, whatever. And I don't, like I said I tell people when I, when I gun and start giving away the stuff. But I don't blast them out like, oh, especially came over and they didn't have no refrigerator, so I gave them refrigerator. Yeah, I don't care about that. You know what I'm saying. And then a lot of times I don't even care if if people come in and they get the stuff and they resell it. I've seen that a lot too which is kind of shady.
Speaker 2Yeah, yeah, but I don't care though because it's like once I get you?
Speaker 1hey, you might have needed some money to do that. You know what?
Speaker 2I'm saying it's like blocking your blessings yeah, yeah. So that's why you're blessed, so it ain't it ain't?
Speaker 1you know it's shady, but it's like oh well, I ain't worried about it, so you know yeah, y'all need something.
Speaker 3So you know, do you?
Speaker 1receive donations. I love see seeing yeah, we receive donations, okay, yeah.
Speaker 3I'm going to be moving soon, so I will have some like relatively new furniture that I can donate to you.
Speaker 1Yeah, and we're going to get that.
Speaker 3Excuse me nigga, what do you want? We're going to sell that shit.
Speaker 1I mean, before you donate, can I come through until I want? Yeah, but we got everything, though, man. Everything. Like we get a little bit of everything, that's what's up. That's what's up, man. I like that. I like that. What's something in the beginning stages that you wish, like say something you know now that you wish you knew in the beginning stages. Probably, just like if you starting a business man, not necessarily like save your money, but don't go cheap with equipment that you're going to be needing. Like there was so many different trucks that I've purchased.
Speaker 2Oh okay, Bullshit trucks.
Speaker 1Yeah, trying to save a couple dollars here, a couple dollars there or whatever, Just get the stuff that you're going to need for your business to run smoothly the first time, because you're going to get a headache man. Investment first, yeah, the first time. Yeah, the trucks I was getting back in the day was just you know.
Speaker 1you know it was working, but it was, you know, a little more work than it needed to be getting towed on the side of the road and you know, and them tows ain't cheap, yeah exactly, go get some bullshit tires and now you gotta blow out, now you gotta you know what I'm saying like, just put you up some money to make it run smoothly. You know what I'm? Saying Because you're going to run into different headaches, but you just don't want your equipment to be. Yeah, why give?
Speaker 2yourself that headache when you could avoid it. Okay, that's a good one, that's a good one. And then with the thrift store stuff man.
Speaker 1I used to accept everything. Now I don't because, like you know, you'll get some stuff that's not even People try to, you'll get some stuff that's not even People are trying to throw stuff away.
Speaker 1Yeah, you just had me come over here and clean out your house, and now it's just all trash or whatever. But I'm getting paid off of that stuff too, though. So you know what? I'll tell the world how y'all can do it. Y'all can do the same thing. So, with the delivery service, a customer said, for instance a customer will call me from Costco. They'll get like a couch, so the employers will give them my business card. I'll deliver the sofa for X amount of dollars. Once I get to their house they have like an old sofa I'll charge them to take the old sofa, and then I'll just resell it inside of my thrift store.
Family Business Lessons Learned
Speaker 1Once it's at my thrift store. I'll charge you to deliver it from my thrift store to your house.
Speaker 2Most from my thrift store to your house, and then, most likely, you might have an old couch at your house that need to get dumped because it's trash. And I just dump it in trash, yeah, and everybody can do it. Bro, that's a dope puzzle, right yeah?
Speaker 1and everybody can do it. Yeah, you know, all I thought was this nigga washing money. No, yeah. Yeah. He's an MC. Yeah, so every everybody can do it. And you know I'll tell everybody the game. And it's like you know, I've had a couple of friends who who've done the same process, not necessarily to like the full extent of it, but you know they they've been able to do it and they've been successful as well.
Speaker 1So yeah, I like that I've been trying to figure out something to do at the end of this year. I'm like I need some extra income and yeah, okay, a second.
Speaker 3No, oh, oh my God, you should be advertising, bro.
Speaker 1I don't know why you ain't advertising. You said it yeah, these mics. They need to be a little advertising on there, or something like that. Be like NASCAR, right For real, I'll get tatted up, I'm going to be fine.

Like, if it ain't working, switch it up. Yeah, but if you're passionate about it, then you just keep going like it's gonna be. You know turbulence, going through shit. You know what I'm saying. Oh yeah, but just going through shit. You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 1But, just keep going, be happy. I think I said something on Facebook because I went to this big ass house in Utah, I think, and I was like damn, I wish this house was mine. He was like well, nigga didn't work harder to get it.
Speaker 1Damn that nigga spitting facts. I was like I can't even argue with that. Yeah, yeah, he's preaching to the choir Shit. I was like, yeah, I don't want to move to Utah though. Nah, but it's, I don't know, it's cool. You know, it's definitely like I said, it's a blessing to be able to do that stuff.
Speaker 3So all right.
Speaker 1Before I get to the main squeeze what do you got? You guys got anything.
Speaker 3You about to ask him who his favorite rappers are?
Speaker 1You have to ask him if you have a question before that, because somebody needs to know. She don't know how to. I just want to make sure we get there Okay. I got a question Do you like, every time you started a new venture, did you anticipate some type of learning curve or some type of loss to happen before you reached success, or were you going right in and saying, no, this is for this.
Speaker 1I'm in here, jump in, fuck it yeah just go straight in there and a lot of shit ain't work. Some shit do work, Some stuff just don't work. But shit don't be scared to do it.
Speaker 2Shit. I had a question With your ventures. How involved is your wife in as far as the business side of it?
Speaker 1Nah, hell nah, you keep that separate, bro, like initially. Initially it was like, um, yeah, I want you to, you know, help me out with this, this and that, or whatever, but nah, okay, nah, separate the two. Like you know what I'm saying. Like it was just too much clashing. So it's like you know what I love this and I love that I can love that. Two separate. You know what I'm saying. So you know, if you try to push it in there, then it's, you know, sometimes it ain't gonna work. So, and I found that it don't work, so I'd rather just love you this way.
Speaker 1And then my business is that way I found out that I love my wife, but I can't afford afford her oh. Jesus, I can't, I can't employ her. It's hard. Yeah, she still, she still helps, but, you know, not to the, not to the full extent of what I would probably want. Yeah, and because I'll put too much pressure on as well, yeah, so she'd be like no, fuck out of here with that, but kudos to you for recognizing that and not wanting to put too much pressure on her.
Speaker 1Yeah, well, I mean we've been together. What 15 years. This going to be our 10th year wedding anniversary.
Speaker 2Congratulations With.
Speaker 1September. So yeah, nah, man Shit. First couple years was rough and then it was just smooth sailing after that. So yeah, she just she know, yeah, she just she believed in what the fuck I had.
Speaker 1Going on, you know, I'm saying like, and that'd be the hardest part, it's like nigga you want to do deliveries, nigga, get the fuck out of with that shit, regular job, yeah like yeah, go, yeah, like like real talk, like no, you probably need to go get your warehouse driver go to ups or something like that and, you know, not knocking that because everybody has their own, you know but yeah, you know for to stick with it. That was kind of cool.
Speaker 2No, I just think women like shit that they know is concrete. Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 1It takes a special type of woman to be able to deal with the abstract Like oh, nigga, this may work.
Speaker 3may not work, it's because by the time we got to you, we done went through so many different relationships that wasn't concrete.
Speaker 1But I'm not your past, so don't hold your past against me, against me. That's a whole different episode.
Speaker 3Oh, we gonna go there on another episode. Absolutely, absolutely. I need another drink.
Speaker 2You're gonna need the bottle.
