Can Money Buy Happiness?

Can Money Buy Happiness?

Money, success, and happiness are often connected — but how much does money actually affect the way we feel about our lives?

In this episode, we dive into the debate about whether money can truly buy happiness or if fulfillment comes from something deeper. We also explore different perspectives on success, financial struggle, and personal growth.

One of the big questions we discuss:
 Would you rather start from nothing and build your way up… or start at the top, lose everything, and have to rise again?

From financial freedom and life satisfaction to the lessons learned through struggle and success, this conversation challenges the way we think about money, happiness, and what it really means to “make it.”

If you enjoy conversations about mindset, success, personal growth, and real-life perspectives on money, this episode is for you.

They about to going downhill for sure. Downhill. I ain't a Lions fan. Y'all know that. We know.

SPEAKER_02 5:12

I ain't gonna lie. I I like the Lions, I do. Like this this year and the line before the year before that, like they had good, they had good chances, good chances, and I was rooting for them. But I feel like they always like that, man. They have all the hype, and then they doing good, and then they sell the bag, or they they fold.

SPEAKER_01 5:31

I say it's gonna come down to coaching. Now, Dan Campbell's gonna have to prove his worth. He's gonna have to save his job. I already told you what his worth was.

SPEAKER_00 5:40

Yeah, I feel like Ben Johnson was the only reason why they was good.

SPEAKER_02 5:44

A facts, a facts, a facts, and Johnson was nice for sure. He is nice for sure. And he proved last year, he proved last year.

SPEAKER_00 5:50

First year head coach winning the conference. Uh not the conference, but division. Man.

SPEAKER_02 5:56

I feel like Dan Campbell, like, he he gotta come with a different aspect this year. That little F Fort going forward on fourth and sixth, and all that shit.

SPEAKER_01 6:04

I like the aggression. It's yeah, it's he needs to let he need to hire coaches and coordinators.

SPEAKER_02 6:09

Yeah, sometimes you just need to kick the field goal, you know, just put some points on the board, punt the ball, you know what I mean? Give y'all some give y'all some space because defense not doing nothing. Yeah, then y'all just gave up Monty David Montgomery, man.

SPEAKER_01 6:24

I I feel like that was a business decision. I feel like he it's money, it's money, man. He a big key player.

SPEAKER_00 6:30

Nah, he they signed him only for three years. He had his three years, so yeah. They got something out of it before he was gonna walk anyways. Facts.

SPEAKER_02 6:37

But they was supposed to they was supposed that's what I'm saying. He's they were supposed to win. They were supposed to at least get middle playoffs. Like, I'm not expecting him to win the Super Bowl. I'm not they paid that many more.

SPEAKER_00 6:46

It was like three years, 33 mil, something like that. What did they do? His third season was up. Yeah. And well, it's not his third season, it was the second season. Yeah. But you know, he was he was requesting to probably leave anyways because Gibbs took over. Yeah, he took over.

SPEAKER_01 7:03

I mean, so we still good right there with Gibbs. No, but I'm saying Gibbs. We don't say NFL, you need two bags, you need at least two bags.

SPEAKER_02 7:11

Do you think Gibbs about to do as good as he was doing when he not getting no breaks?

SPEAKER_00 7:15

Uh, I would say so. Yeah. But it it really is, it don't got nothing much to do with him and got to do with that line of frame.

SPEAKER_01 7:21

Yeah, that line is.

SPEAKER_00 7:26

Not request a trade, but request to be released.

SPEAKER_01 7:29

Come on, man. Decker, man. Thought you was loyal, man. How you feel about your boy Goff?

SPEAKER_00 7:35

Terrible.

SPEAKER_01 7:36

Nah, nah, they gotta they gotta get a better quarterback. Golf, he, he, he. We're not gonna win the Super Bowl with golf. He run out of the game.

SPEAKER_00 7:41

Hey, that year, that year they went to the uh the conference championship. I was saying they would've won it with Justin Fields. Fact, we need a mobile quarterback.

SPEAKER_01 7:49

And that's not a golf game, so he's not gonna with this. They got headed hooker, but with this team, you know. You need a mobile quarterback. With the NFL, really, man.

SPEAKER_02 7:58

They got Hooker, you know, just but he's not a I feel like yeah, I feel like if they got a mobile quarterback with, you know, J Mo in the backfield, you know what I mean? St. Brown. Yeah, you feel me? You got Gibbs, still can, you know, run the ball and catch the ball. Like, if they got a quarterback that can move around, yeah, like say for instance, Lamar Jackson. Like, oh my god.

SPEAKER_03 8:22

That would be a threat team. Oh my god. Man, why are you with Lamar in it, man?

SPEAKER_00 8:26

They don't need two running backs in the backfield.

SPEAKER_03 8:29

He's optional with it. He can he can hit you with a he's a little bit optional.

SPEAKER_00 8:33

All right, put it like this. All right, let's record, man. Let's think inside the inside the division. Okay, yeah, yeah. If they had two other quarterbacks inside the division that they were in, they'd have won the Super Bowl.

SPEAKER_01 8:45

Yeah, if we had Williams or uh Love.

SPEAKER_00 8:47

Yes. Yeah. I ain't gonna say McCarthy because he's terrible. Y'all know that. Oh, yeah, we already know he's the worst quarterback.

SPEAKER_02 8:52

Yeah, go back to a couple episodes before that, man. I tried to give him some. Tried to give him some hope, bro.

SPEAKER_00 8:58

He like, man. He's just not good.

SPEAKER_02 9:02

Hopefully he can do something next year.

SPEAKER_00 9:04

He was not set up for success at that university he went to because all they did was hand the ball, man. Hand the ball off, and he only threw the ball five yards out.

SPEAKER_02 9:13

He made he made uh Jeddah look Jeddah had what six touchdowns on the year?

SPEAKER_00 9:20

That's crazy. How much do he average?

SPEAKER_02 9:22

He averaged way more than he.

SPEAKER_01 9:24

Jeddah is one of the is not the best receiver.

SPEAKER_02 9:26

He didn't get to do nothing last year. He he barely even got yards. Like I remember his over and unders, like just on the sports bed tip. Like his overs, you know, 80-90. He wasn't even getting, he wasn't even getting 40 again.

SPEAKER_00 9:38

Hey man, look, if you compare this season to last season, the team is practically practically the same. It's the same.

SPEAKER_01 9:45

It's the same.

SPEAKER_00 9:46

Besides Sam Darnold. Yep. They let Sam Darnold walk and he went and won a Super Bowl.

SPEAKER_01 9:51

See what he did. He went to another team, won the exact same amount of games and the Super Bowl. Won the ball. Won the big one. Shout out to Sam Darnold. I like Sam Darnold right now.

SPEAKER_00 10:03

Like, like, don't get me wrong. I knew they drafted McCarthy in the first round, but I'm like, you can't let Darnold walk. I don't care if you who you drafted in the first round. You cannot let him walk after this season.

SPEAKER_02 10:12

Thing is, though, golf, I mean not golf, uh Darnold not mobile either, though. He just knows how to throw the ball.

SPEAKER_01 10:18

He knows his timing. He do. He do.

SPEAKER_02 10:20

Golf can't do that.

SPEAKER_01 10:23

He's more mobile than golf, though. He is more mobile than golf though. Yeah, golf. Like, he golf is I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 13:34

I feel like he's even more than that, bro. He is different. More than that? Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 13:39

Oh, y'all like him like that, huh? The killer. You gotta be a killer. He a dog.

SPEAKER_00 14:05

I ain't gonna say he's the best in the league, but he's a dog for sure.

SPEAKER_01 14:08

He's the best player in the league. Oh, yeah. If he ain't the best, then it's gotta be Cade. Nah, stop it. Whatever. Cade ain't nah. That's because you went to a bad game, man.

SPEAKER_00 14:24

I mean, don't get me wrong. Cade Cade, Cade is what Detroit needs. Facts. But I'm not gonna crown him the NBA's best because of that.

SPEAKER_01 14:37

Cade mark okay, Kate market Detroit real well, but you know. Yeah, he's tough. So y'all say Wimby is the best player of the league? Yes, absolutely.

SPEAKER_00 14:46

He's the best player we're gonna ever see in this lifetime. When you crazy. Who else is doing what he's doing?

SPEAKER_01 14:52

Ant. Well, no, no, no, but he's like he's 7'4.

SPEAKER_00 14:57

Exactly. Wimby, look, people, people, people doing this.

SPEAKER_02 15:01

They say I ain't gonna lie. Like when I was watching the game, he ended the game off with a double double, but he wasn't doing nothing the whole game. He just snatched blocking stuff. Like, he had like nine. No, he ain't had nine. He had like, I think he had like probably like nine, nine, ten rebounds. He had like six blocks. I'm like, bro.

SPEAKER_01 15:19

Heck yeah. And he could run.

SPEAKER_02 15:23

He he brought me.

SPEAKER_00 15:25

Hey, all I'm saying is I was just watching the game on Thursday. They they out of bounds. They had to pass it in from the sideline. It was like two seconds on the clock. They passed to my man. He shot a three from like 30.

SPEAKER_01 15:39

Like two seconds?

SPEAKER_00 15:40

Yes, with the shot clock left. That boy is tough. We'll be different, man. He's going to be the best player we've ever seen in our lifetimes.

SPEAKER_01 15:47

Ever? Yes. Okay, y'all go too far, man. Come on with that.

SPEAKER_02 15:52

I'm about to get off this topic, but the ever? I was about to get I was about to change the next topic, too. But yes, he is. I believe that too.

SPEAKER_00 16:00

He's huge. Nobody's doing what he put it like this. They compare Wimby to, they put they compare Wimby to Joker. They said Wimby just surpassed Joker in blocks, and Joker played eight more seasons. No, no, that's eight more seasons as a big man. Were you playing in the paint?

SPEAKER_01 16:18

Joker's I gonna say he's out of shape, but he's not an athletic guy.

SPEAKER_00 16:22

I don't care. And Joker is considered one of the best players in the league.

SPEAKER_01 16:26

Oh, yeah, it's out.

SPEAKER_00 16:28

He's better than Cade, by the way.

SPEAKER_01 16:30

Definitely. Definitely. Nah, he's gonna raise baby.

SPEAKER_00 16:34

That's the truth. Will be better than Cade? Yes. Will be better than Cade. Yes. When's the last time you ever seen somebody get a triple double with blocks?

SPEAKER_03 16:47

He's 7'5. I don't care.

SPEAKER_00 16:50

That plays into it. Now look, now look. Put it like this. People talk about it. No, I ain't trying to hear it. No, put it like this. Why do people call KD one of the best scores ever? Because of his height. It's not that he's doing nothing nobody else is done. He's deficient.

SPEAKER_01 17:06

Yes, he's efficient, but so is Wimby.

SPEAKER_00 17:08

But I'm not trying to.

SPEAKER_01 17:10

I'll give Wimby that he's efficient.

SPEAKER_00 17:11

I'm saying, though, people call KD the best scorer ever. Not just because of what he does, because what he does is never is not really that significant. He's just seven foot doing it.

SPEAKER_01 17:23

And he's smooth doing it all. So is Wimby. Right. But how you can say he's the best ever. Alright, bro. He's gonna be the. He's saying he will. Like he's gonna be.

SPEAKER_00 17:33

He's going to be that.

SPEAKER_02 17:34

He got something.

SPEAKER_00 17:36

He's three years in. Yes, exactly. And he already did stuff that he's never seen.

SPEAKER_01 17:42

What is he, 24? No, Wimby. He's like 20. Yeah, he's like 21, 22. This is his third year, right? Or it's his fourth year. This is his third year.

SPEAKER_02 17:50

He's not even 21.

SPEAKER_01 17:52

No. No, he's young. He's young, young.

SPEAKER_02 17:55

So that means he got another 15 years. Yes, he's gonna be one of the dogs.

SPEAKER_01 17:59

You know how he gonna recover. He gets that big. I hope he don't know. No injuries. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_00 18:05

Yeah, we ain't seen that in a minute, bro.

SPEAKER_01 18:08

You know, guys, seven footers, they got a lot of things.

SPEAKER_00 18:11

A lot of those seven-footers got those problems because a lot of their heights came from tumors. He ain't got no tumor height. Yeah, he just natural.

SPEAKER_01 18:20

He ain't like, he just naturally that tall. He ain't like one woman to get hurt. No, no, no, no, no. No, the off history basically. No, yeah, I feel you though. He is like just big on the side.

SPEAKER_00 18:30

He ain't got he ain't got no weight or nothing on his body.

SPEAKER_01 18:32

Yeah, he is slim too. So he's straight. Yeah. He is one of the healthiest seven footers I ever see. Besides him and Shaq. Shaq, Shaq is just naturally big like that.

SPEAKER_02 18:45

It looked like when he was playing a lot, he just jogged down the court. Like his legs so long, like he ain't even got a sprint or nothing.

SPEAKER_01 18:51

I do go on to see him. I want to see him in person. So that's huge. That's gonna be a goal.

SPEAKER_00 18:55

He's huge. Alright, man. I felt that way when I watched uh Giannis play at LCA. When they played the Buffalo. It was right before COVID. In 2020, February. Yeah, see, I got to see the unicorns. And now not only is Giannis seven feet seven one, that man's built like a brick.

SPEAKER_01 19:18

I was like, yeah, so yeah, alright. That's our sports talk so far. Man, what you got? What you got, man?

SPEAKER_02 19:28

I feel like I feel like yeah, I got a couple questions. I'm gonna start off with this question first. But I feel like I know what y'all answer is gonna be to the question, but I'm gonna still ask it later something else about it. But do y'all feel like happiness is more important? Let me let me read it the right way. Hold on. Is money or happiness more important? Which one y'all going with?

SPEAKER_00 19:46

Both.

SPEAKER_02 19:48

No, you gotta pick one. Y'all pick one. I think we so good.

SPEAKER_00 19:52

Uh nah, don't get me wrong.

SPEAKER_02 19:53

Is money or happiness more important?

SPEAKER_00 19:56

In today's economy, money is very important. I love being happy. Don't get me wrong. Like, I ain't I ain't really got a lot of money, but I'm I feel like I'm genuinely a happy person. But it's like, dang, I wish I had some money because it'll help everything, bro.

SPEAKER_03 20:12

No, really. It changes your mood.

SPEAKER_02 20:21

So do you feel like money. So do you feel like so it's it's insane out there that that money doesn't bring happiness?

SPEAKER_00 20:28

No, no. Alright, but it sure does help though. You ain't like, I'm not gonna say, I'm not gonna say money itself brings happiness. Yeah. I'm not gonna say that. But it does take a lot of my problems away if I had it. Yeah. So I'm you feel me. I don't know. I'm genuinely a happy person. I feel like I'm a like I'm a joyful person.

SPEAKER_01 20:52

Oh, you really?

SPEAKER_00 20:52

Yes. But I feel like if I had if I if I just had like a million dollars handed to me today, I'm straight.

SPEAKER_01 21:00

Who's handing over a million dollars, Corey?

SPEAKER_00 21:02

You never know. You never know. If you beat that person, yeah. I wouldn't be sure to I would say I'd be sure to never tell y'all about it.

SPEAKER_01 21:12

I bet you won't, man.

SPEAKER_02 21:14

I wouldn't tell us all anyway.

SPEAKER_01 21:15

It's gonna be signs, though. You are gonna be signs. It's gonna be signs. I would say happiness, man. Amen. Yeah. Even though I've never experienced having money, so I can't really say, but Cory did like it does change your mood, you know. So answer questions too.

SPEAKER_02 21:34

So do you do you feel like it's the saying out there, money doesn't bring you happiness. Do you feel like it'll bring you happiness? If you just I'm not saying like a million dollars or something like that. What if, you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_00 21:45

If I had 10,000, I'm happy.

SPEAKER_02 21:47

Let's say enough money to where you don't gotta live, you you could change your life, basically. You ain't gotta live where you at. You can pick where you wanna live at. Man, you can pick not to work no more, you can pick whatever you want to do. Do you feel like that'll bring you? All the happiness you need. I'ma say no.

SPEAKER_01 22:02

I'ma say, you know what? I'm my answer is no. I mean, my answer is that, yeah, no. I mean, because me being basically I grew up without money. So I'm a happy person regardless, you know what I'm saying? So I'm like, I'm just, I find, I found, I found, man, ways to have joy in other things besides money. You know what I'm saying? And then coming up, I I I never I never shied away from how I came up. You know what I'm saying? I came up not as fortunate. I ain't gonna say I came up poor because we always had a roof over our head. We may not have transportation growing up or whatever, but but we still found ways to be happy. Me and my siblings, and still found ways to have fun, still had good family times. We, you know what I'm saying, and things that we could lean back on today, like even not having money or going through rough times, you know, when you have losses and stuff like that. But we can still find joy. So I I I mean, and I find myself like being happy in those moments. I'm happier in those moments, even though, like I said, I never experienced having uh massive amount of uh money or whatever, but I found myself to find happiness in those. So I I I don't think you need money to be happy. I think happiness is more than a chance. I think money I think is more happiness is more important, yeah, for sure.

SPEAKER_02 23:27

Okay, okay man, I'll tell you this though.

SPEAKER_00 23:29

Yeah, like I said, I'm genuinely a happy person, I'm joyful, like I'm I'm good, I'm good without it. I'm good without it. Okay. But if I had it though, man, it does.

SPEAKER_01 23:41

It'd be different.

SPEAKER_00 23:41

But then for a lot of people, money brings problems.

SPEAKER_01 23:45

Facts. More money, more problems. Big said it best. Man. More money, more problems.

SPEAKER_00 23:50

Oh, so yeah, for sure. Like, yeah, I would say, I'm because I know like some people like you can have all the money in the world and it's still not gonna change a thing.

SPEAKER_04 24:01

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 24:02

Like you can't, you can't buy somebody's love. You can't you can't buy connections or relationships. You can't, you know, you could be, you could pay people from the throat, but it's not gonna be genuine.

SPEAKER_01 24:12

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 24:12

So I don't know. I I'm I'm good being happy, but you feel me, if if I had some money though, you feel me? Yeah. All you gotta do is hand me hand me a hundred dollars. I'm straight.

SPEAKER_01 24:22

Man, for real, man. Him, me, hand me a thigh. I didn't earn, you know what I'm saying? You just want to give tax. That I don't gotta pay taxes on. Have you something I don't gotta pay taxes on? You just genuinely want to give it to me, like just pause. Yeah. Come on, man. See, you can't say nothing about these young dudes. I it just crazy pause.

SPEAKER_02 24:52

Crazy. All right, so I feel like mine would be my answer would be I'm gonna answer the question. I feel like my answer would be is that yeah, I agree with you, uh, Corey, that we in a different time now. Like money is is it's very important right now. Money is money is revolved around everything, like everything is revolved around money right now. Yeah, but yeah, I definitely agree with you, Twan. We, you know what I mean? We ain't grow up at all, you feel me? Like, we don't even know what life, you know what I mean? Say if we all was at a meal just put up, you know what I mean? Hey, I'm I'm trying to get there, bro. The whole thing with this money don't bring you happiness. Only reason I was just saying about that is I don't I don't think that's true.

SPEAKER_03 25:36

But like I'll be I'll be happy as hell.

SPEAKER_01 25:39

Hey, money does stage a move.

SPEAKER_00 25:41

Money does stage a mood. Money will like for me, I'm not gonna say my happiness is gonna be rooted in me. No, it's not rooted in it. There you go. But perfect, yeah. But I'm gonna be happy that I got it. Facts. So, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 25:54

And I think anybody would be.

SPEAKER_00 25:55

But my money isn't gonna be isn't going to be rooted in that. No, no. It's my money, my happiness isn't gonna be rooted in that. Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_03 26:04

Got another one, man. I got a couple, I got a couple we just gotta talk about.

SPEAKER_02 26:07

Uh why do y'all feel like some people don't succeed in life? Like, I feel like for me, like it's you know what I mean, you see a lot of people like, you know what I mean? When you growing up, you see a lot of older people and stuff like that. People that was, you know, in your corner or something like that, people you knew. You know what I mean? Why do you think them certain people didn't succeed in life, or you know what I mean, still might be doing the same thing or I could have gone farther, stuff like that.

SPEAKER_01 26:33

Yeah. Yeah, um, I mean true. I would say work, work ethic for sure is one of them. And sometimes your environment uh plays a big part too, but like man, when they say when you be you can become a product of your environment, like yeah, that's that's what you're saying, man. Like whoever you surround yourself with rather rather like-minded people, or you just find yourself find yourself in like certain areas where I mean like the mood is down or not not motivational, or you know, you know what I'm saying? You you can you can adapt to that. Yeah, man. So it's like man, I mean, but you can also overcome that. Some people got drives, some people got you know motivation. I don't want to be that anymore. So I mean, I I'd say my to answer the question, I'd say the work ethic for sure. That's uh that's what causes that.

SPEAKER_02 27:32

Yeah, that's what I I agree with that for sure. I agree with that. I feel like, yeah, what you said, environment, everybody different. Environment's big, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 27:40

Yeah, you gotta certain people that just that just are I'll add to that though, yeah, with your environment is you gotta be surrounded. You surround yourself by people who want that for you, but also for themselves. Facts. There you go. People who got the same goals. Common goals, yeah. Yep. Yep. That's definitely big on environment. It's like, yeah, like they want the best for you, but they also striving to do the you know the same thing for them. Common goals. Ain't no button heads, ain't nobody battling, trying to one up each other. Exactly. I mean, you can always have a little friendly competition.

SPEAKER_01 28:14

Yeah, friendly competition, friendly, yeah, yeah. I bet you won't do this.

SPEAKER_00 28:18

You know, but like not people who like generally spiteful or don't want the best for you. Right, right. So I say, yeah. Yeah, just surround yourself by people who are like-minded, want the best for you, genuinely like care for you as a person.

SPEAKER_01 28:34

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 28:34

Uh, I mean, don't get me wrong, some people's success came because they had a little head start, but we ain't gonna talk about that.

SPEAKER_02 28:40

But I was gonna say, I was gonna say something about that. Like, some people, some people, you know, just got people got it. Some people just got blessed, and you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_00 28:49

Some people got a headset. You know what I mean? Some people gotta grind for it. But really, I mean, like, nah, just because just because you start off successful don't mean you're gonna stay successful.

SPEAKER_01 28:57

See, and that that that that answers kind of answers the question that we just answered. Does money brings uh happiness? Because some some people some people grew up not want needing a thing. They always have money, but they just they can't find happiness.

SPEAKER_00 29:11

I say it success is really um relative, because like let's say we get to a point now people look at us like, oh, you're successful, but to me, I'm like, I haven't done anything yet. Right, right. So it's like I have goals to go here. Yeah, I have goals to go here, but you looking at me like I'm just success based on what I've done already. And to me, to myself, I'm like, I'm gonna be. So, I mean, it's it's it depends, it's based on perspective. It's definitely based on perspective. But if you want to talk like a success amongst ourselves, uh definitely I don't know what I'm saying. I'm I'm not gonna lie. This this I'm no I'm having to say that this this leading to my this leading to my next question, though.

SPEAKER_02 29:55

Like, so basically we just gonna think like hypothetically or whatever, but like what would you rather go with if you you know started off not really having anything, basically, you know, poor. We're not gonna say we poor or not, but just starting off poor and you know, eventually being financially free, wealthy, and all that type of stuff, or you know, growing up being wealthy, and then going broke or poor.

SPEAKER_01 30:22

Oh, you oh say you was going to be.

SPEAKER_02 30:26

You know what I mean? You gotta work for it again. How would you know what I mean? We speaking hypothetically.

SPEAKER_00 30:29

Alright, nah, I would say nah, it's a lot of movie plots who be doing that for that. So like they came from a rich family, separate themselves from the family because they want to get it themselves and not learn how to get it on their own. Uh so I mean, I I I would rather come up uh lesser and then get the feeling of making it to the top just because um I don't know, I feel like that brings a lot of joy. Yeah, feeling like feeling like you made it, but then also the mindset's a little bit different. Yeah, because level headed. Yeah, because yeah, because you already know this, you know what it's like to be at the bottom. Yeah, but then also with that same thing, is like a lot of people who start at the bottom and they ended up working their way up, they bring people with them. Yeah, and either they give back to the community or they got they they little circle and be like, because I'm eating, y'all eat too.

SPEAKER_01 31:15

Yeah, so and they and they a little more humble, yeah, a little more humble, they got a little more appreciation.

SPEAKER_00 31:22

At least while they at least while they're grinding though, because who knows how they're gonna get when they make it to the top because they never tasted that before. Facts, facts, yeah. But it's different though.

SPEAKER_02 31:29

You start at the top, you might be you might be cocky, you might be, yeah, you know what I mean? So then you come down, you might get humble, but yeah, like I said, I agree with you, Corey. I would like I would start from the bottom, come up.

SPEAKER_01 31:42

And also those people that uh start from the top, then come back down, and then they go back into the top, with them is no excuses. Because they like, man, I seen it from this both sides. I seen it from being at the top, and I know what it what it like what it's like to have uh also some people who start at the top and they go down, and they might not make it back up.

SPEAKER_00 32:05

No, but if they do make it back up, they could be like, I will never do that again. Yeah, facts. Oh, they're gonna stay hungry to never make sure that they they got a ground like that again. Like they want to stay up.

SPEAKER_01 32:14

And like I said, their tolerance level is not as high. They like, man, yo, yo, man, hey, I sympathize with you for a minute, but yo, you gotta pick yourself up.

SPEAKER_02 32:24

I feel like once you get to that level though, you might get comfortable.

SPEAKER_01 32:27

Yeah. You might get comfortable. Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 32:30

So I feel like, yeah, I agree with that. I'll I'll start from the bottom for sure.

SPEAKER_01 32:34

But that also that also helps answer, I don't know. It helps answer your first question. That first question was here. Are you happy? What was it? Happy or with money. Uh money is happy. Money, do you think money brings happiness? Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, I mean, yeah, I mean. Some people like to some people like the journey too. I ain't gonna lie. Some people like the process, some people like the work. Twine a journey, man. I am, though. I am, man. I really am, man. I'm one of those people. I ain't gonna lie, that's why I like that's why I love Kobe. Like, Kobe, he loved the work. Kobe loved, he loved the grind. Like, man, that's why he's like my favorite player because it's like favorite athlete regardless. Cause, man, that was him. He's like, man, at 4 a.m. in the morning, you know, getting up. People didn't like to do that, but he liked that here.

SPEAKER_02 33:26

That's a grind.

SPEAKER_01 33:27

He liked that. I mean, I ain't saying he was up to it all the time, but he's like, Yeah, yo, he liked the process. He's like, man, because he knows what nobody else was doing that. So I I yeah, I'm kind of like that. I like that. Oh so yeah, I don't like I I've been offered like jobs to sit in the office where you don't have to do nothing. I I like to get my hands dirty.

SPEAKER_00 33:47

Yeah, Tuan, hey, listen, Tuan drives seven hours to work, work ten hours, and drive seven hours back home. He don't go to sleep. He be doing seven hours, work ten, come back, then he get he get home for two minutes, gotta turn around and go back to work.

SPEAKER_02 34:03

He takes cat naps. Man, cool.

SPEAKER_00 34:08

That ain't no bad thing.

SPEAKER_03 34:09

That's dope. You don't sleep, he take cat naps. I swear it is.

SPEAKER_00 34:13

That man said, wake up and go get it.

SPEAKER_01 34:17

Yeah, silly. Yeah, I'm kind of like that, man. Well, that's kind of a problem though, man. Cause I'm kind of I'm sleep deprived right now because of that. Yeah, it's like a whole.

SPEAKER_00 34:28

I've been sleeping good these last few nights. I bet you have, man. Because most of you don't know. I got hurt working out. So my body's been recovering, boy. I've been sleeping, dog. I ain't gonna hold you. Boy, I tell you, so I got hurt on Wednesday. Oh, for real? Yeah. Did you pull the muscle or something? Uh seemed like I pulled a muscle. I was I was doing a bench and felt it pop in my chest. I thought I tore my pack. I ain't gonna hold you because I couldn't move my arm. You can move your arm. But nah, um, it looks like it's looking like it's just a bad strain. Yeah. Or um I I could have partially ruptured it. Um, which is better than a better jar. Yeah. But did that Wednesday, couldn't move my arm. It was cool Wednesday. I did what I had to do, but then what's it? No, it was Wednesday night, slept like a baby. But then I got home, did work on Thursday, only had a half day. Went home. I was so tired, but I slept so long. You slept? I didn't do nothing all day for real.

SPEAKER_02 35:29

That's how I was Wednesday and Thursday. I went out to try to take a little nap. Oh, yeah, because you got no schedule.

SPEAKER_01 35:34

That turned into a yeah, that turned into an all-night thing. Yeah, you got them scheduled, you gotta adjust. Yeah, sleep.

SPEAKER_00 35:40

Hey man, I just want to say sleep is very important. Make sure that get y'all sleep, man. It is, man. For sure.

SPEAKER_01 35:45

For sure. Oh, it's important, especially for us. Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 35:49

Black men for sure. Or men dead. Get your sleep, drink a lot of water. Yeah. A lot of water. Man, I had to love it.

SPEAKER_02 36:00

These the last ones. These last ones, these last ones. Easy one. These good, this might hit y'all on the spot, though. Y'all might not know. Pause.

SPEAKER_03 36:10

Why'd you pause it everything? No, that wouldn't pause worthy. No, no, no. Nah.

SPEAKER_01 36:17

You pause everything.

SPEAKER_02 36:18

This is a life lesson people learn too late. If y'all can just give me one, I'm gonna just say one for, you know, probably start it off, probably uh just taking it, just taking life seriously. It can be from any different aspect or whatever, but I'll probably say just probably taking life seriously. You know what I mean? Facts. Just like when somebody just said I woke up today, like, you know what I mean? Some people ain't, you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_00 36:39

Yeah, priorities, yeah. Not taking it for granted.

SPEAKER_02 36:42

Yeah, stuff like that. I'll probably just say some people might, you know what I mean, take that.

SPEAKER_00 36:48

I I would say learn that too late. When opportunities come, even though it may not seem um like even though it's not comfortable, like definitely jump outside your comfort comfort zone, take chances. Because I can't I don't know how many people look back, like, man, I wish I would have taken a chance when I was like, so like get out get out of your comfort zone. I'm not saying you gotta stay out of it, but like just it's it's good to get out of it every now and then. Uh take chances, and if those don't work out, you can still bounce back from it. Cause you'll I'm sure people would rather be like, I wish I took a chance on this versus living in their comfort zone and then being conservative and being like being regretful.

SPEAKER_02 37:33

Yeah, I don't want to be regretful, think back 10 years. Like, I wish I would have done that. I probably could have been here, here. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, that's yeah, I agree with that for sure. I know a lot of people. About to get canceled already. I don't say nothing. You don't be canceling.

SPEAKER_01 37:46

I'ma say I'ma say these women, man. What about these relationships, man? What about? Oh my gosh, man.

SPEAKER_03 37:53

What about what they learned too late about that? Well, you never you never learned them.

SPEAKER_01 38:01

You never learned them, man. You never gotta figure it out, man.

unknown 38:04

Fact.

SPEAKER_01 38:06

You never gotta figure it out. Oh they don't they don't got themselves figured out, man. Oh yeah, you can't see it. You about to get it now. What man?

SPEAKER_03 38:15

I'm telling the truth, man.

SPEAKER_01 38:17

They gonna got themselves figured out, man. They say they want one thing.

SPEAKER_00 38:25

No, wait, wait, wait, wait. How does that tie into Jermaine's question?

SPEAKER_03 38:31

He said, What's the life lesson that you look at? I said, what let me let me get in with this question again. What is a life lesson people learn too late? He said he's women. What do you do? Too late. What is too late about it? You still you still don't gotta figure it out. You still learn though. It's too late.

SPEAKER_01 38:50

It's always gonna be too late.

SPEAKER_00 38:54

I understand him now.

unknown 38:55

Exactly.

SPEAKER_00 38:56

I understand him now.

SPEAKER_03 38:56

It's always gonna be too late.

SPEAKER_00 38:58

I understand him now. Oh see. He done been through it. He done been married, he done been married for a lot of times.

SPEAKER_02 39:06

I think a lot of times you should have the script by now. Like I got the script.

SPEAKER_00 39:12

You should have the playbook. You should have the other you should have the other team playbook, man.

SPEAKER_01 39:16

You playing around.

SPEAKER_00 39:17

You call it off in the place.

SPEAKER_01 39:19

You not cheatin'. I don't want to play the game right now. I want to I'm cheating.

SPEAKER_00 39:23

What they be saying, if you ain't cheating, you ain't trying. You need to cheat like whoa, whoa.

SPEAKER_01 39:28

You need to cheat like a cheater, man. I didn't say cheat on your woman. I said cheat like oh, you said I'm spy gate. I should be spy gate right now. Or deflect gate or something like that.

SPEAKER_00 39:38

Start popping BBLs out here.

SPEAKER_01 39:43

Man, no, man. He said he's just I'm speaking on behalf of the men. You know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_00 39:52

You still ain't, I don't I kind of understand you, but I'm not saying but like so so what do you feel like is too late?

SPEAKER_02 40:00

Like, like what's too late?

SPEAKER_01 40:02

Let's see, let's see. What's too late? Man, I mean What's too late for you to learn the lesson? Like, what's too late? I didn't mean to mess up the mic, man.

SPEAKER_02 40:09

I mean, they want you to be a mind reader, but then when you also read the room, we gotta put a time, we gotta put a time span on this or something. What do you mean?

SPEAKER_03 40:20

It's too late. It's it's too late. No.

SPEAKER_00 40:25

Yeah, you're not making sense no more, bro. I tried to understand where you're coming from, but I don't get it no more.

SPEAKER_01 40:32

You never got them figured out. Uh nah, bro.

SPEAKER_03 40:34

So my gosh.

SPEAKER_01 40:37

I'm just being messy. I don't know what you're talking about, though, bro. I'm just being messy, man. I tried to understand. I'm just being messy. I think I got another one. Hold on. No, no, no one second.

SPEAKER_00 40:47

I don't know what you're talking about, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 40:49

No, my my my original answer was like relationships. Some people figure out relationships too late when they go on, you know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_00 40:58

So, so like, so like, are you saying, are you saying, let's say I'm with this woman? Some people mess up, yeah. Let's say I'm with this woman, you did something.

SPEAKER_01 41:06

Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 41:07

Now it's necessary to say it's wrong, but let's say y'all both moved on, but then years later, you figure out where you messed up at.

SPEAKER_01 41:14

Yeah, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 41:15

Facts. Yeah. Is that because you love the person, you love that person, or you found out more about yourself. You found out you found out more about yourself.

SPEAKER_01 41:22

More about yourself and where your flaws is, where you where you where you can improve yourself.

SPEAKER_00 41:27

Alright, so is that predicated based on that person, or do you feel like you won't be able to apply that to the next person?

SPEAKER_01 41:35

Of course not.

SPEAKER_00 41:36

Because I'm saying if you really feel like it's too late, that's because you really wanted to be with that person, other than feeling like you It's not necessarily true, man. Why is it too late then?

SPEAKER_02 41:46

Do you feel like it's just men or woman though? Oh, it's both. I think it's both. You just you threw them, you threw them. Alright. Not but what?

SPEAKER_00 41:54

Why is it too late then if that's the case? Because I'm saying, like, just because my my now I'm and now I'm interested. Is it because you say you find out more about yourself, but you say it's too late. So like it's too late with that person or too late in your life, because I feel like you can always find another person and then apply. Yeah, that's why people be getting in relationships as soon as they get out of one.

SPEAKER_01 42:19

Yeah. But I'm saying that's well, that's where I'm not. Uh I don't like to rush into relationships.

SPEAKER_00 42:25

Yeah, me either. But I'm saying, like, but now I'm like, it's too late. I'm I'm trying to I'm trying to understand you. Okay. You say it's too late. Is it for too late to apply it to the person that you were once with a couple years ago? Because you truly, because you truly love that person, or do you feel like it's too late because you can't apply yourself like that to the next?

SPEAKER_01 42:44

I guess you could say I guess some people have regrets with a uh certain uh somebody, but then also you're like, dang, man. I'm gonna say maybe I I either I might I don't know if I'm using the right word. Status or your rep, your rep, your rep. You know what I'm saying? As a man in a relationship or a woman in a relationship. You know what I'm saying? Some people like, dang man, if I did that, I'd I wanna be, you know, sometimes labeled this as a cheater or something like, you know what I'm saying? Something like that. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_00 43:20

I got you.

SPEAKER_01 43:21

Yeah. Yeah, I'm not I'm not good at explaining this why that's why I become a teacher.

SPEAKER_00 43:26

Because I'm still going based off of that.

SPEAKER_01 43:28

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 43:30

Do you think sometimes the the feeling of it is too late comes because let's say you've been hurt in a relationship and then you no longer feel like you should apply yourself like that anymore? Because you know, some people they they avoid certain things because they don't want the feeling of being hurt.

SPEAKER_01 43:47

Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. So is that it? Yeah, I think so.

SPEAKER_00 43:49

I think that has a lot to do with it. I mean So So it's like it's like your very first relationship, you give everything you got, but then you end up getting hurt, so then you just like for the nice Next person, I'm not gonna do it as much.

SPEAKER_01 44:01

Yeah, a lot of people, yeah, they they shut, they they shut down and like they hold back. You gotta be more deserved. Yeah, you're holding back. They're more guarded. That's that's the word. They're more guarded, and they they don't want to let nobody in that space. You know what I mean? To protect themselves, yeah. Yes, yes. Okay. So or they they don't want to feel that feeling, that feeling again. So it's like, I mean me, I'm I'm I'm not for that, but I'm I'm all open, but I just like me. I'm like me and you, Corey, we we both relate to this a lot. What you mean? You know, May knows still new, you know.

SPEAKER_02 44:35

Uh-huh, uh huh. Uh-huh.

SPEAKER_01 44:37

We don't rush into relationships, you know what I'm saying? You know, just uh say you two. You young that's crazy.

SPEAKER_03 44:44

He just made it seem like I'm just no you you said this man of relationships. You this got out of high school, man. All right, bro. Alright, so you bring up teachers. Okay, yeah. We we we go into because you trying to throw me off.

SPEAKER_00 45:01

Oh bruh.

SPEAKER_02 45:07

Talking about this earlier, yeah. Uh fine. Hold on, give me one second. Like speaking of high school, let's let's talk about these. Yeah, yeah, right, yeah.

SPEAKER_01 45:16

Man, that's crazy. He just threw me under the bus, didn't he? I did not throw you under the bus, bro. I just said you just got out of high school, though. You know, you only got out of college, man.

SPEAKER_00 45:26

Man, it's 25.

unknown 45:28

Yeah, man.

SPEAKER_00 45:28

He's been out of high school seven years.

SPEAKER_01 45:30

He's been out of high school seven years. Try messy for a minute. Seven. Damn, it's been that long. Oh, you might be up.

SPEAKER_03 45:38

Man, what are you looking like? What?

SPEAKER_01 45:40

Dang, I forgot. It's been two years of Corey already. Yeah, it's my tenure to this year. He's seven.

SPEAKER_02 45:46

Yeah, that's crazy. That is wild. I remember walking down J High Halls, like opening my locker, going to the gym. Yeah, that's wild.

SPEAKER_00 45:54

I still I still do that.

SPEAKER_02 45:56

Oh, yeah, because you still work in this school, you graduate. Do you feel like uh athletes should make more money than teachers? We're talking about school teachers. Yes. School teachers.

SPEAKER_00 46:09

Why, Corp? They're entertainers.

SPEAKER_01 46:11

Okay, that's it.

SPEAKER_00 46:12

Okay. I get more joy out of an athlete winning the championship than a teacher getting the championship.

SPEAKER_01 46:20

This question gets deep, though. It's more poly, it's more, it's more glorified.

SPEAKER_00 46:25

All right, let's let's take off athletes. Do entertainers deserve to get paid more than teachers? No. Okay.

SPEAKER_02 46:32

No. I feel like they should they should be paid uh similar. Like they should be paid, you know. You know, I understand somebody got to get paid more than the other, but I feel like it's it's a big, big difference in the pay. Like, teachers don't make money at all. I don't I don't believe, you know what I mean? And why? Why? I don't they I don't think, you know, I mean it's it's it's it's not a full year-round job.

SPEAKER_00 46:58

They get paid for the summer off, though.

SPEAKER_02 46:59

Yeah, they do get paid for the summer off, so it is kind of like a good look. And they don't deserve the summer off. You get the summer off. Like you get they get paid for the summer.

SPEAKER_00 47:05

They get the summer off, but they get paid for that summer off.

SPEAKER_01 47:07

They don't deserve that though? No, I'm saying like what you don't think they deserve it to get paid for that summer off after they spend all these.

SPEAKER_02 47:14

No, they definitely just I think they deserve it. Yeah, I'm saying, I'm saying, like, the money, money-wise, like as them getting paid, is you know, entertainers or athletes getting paid more than teachers. So like I feel like they should be getting paid around the same, you know what I mean? Uh teachers don't make money for, I don't think. I don't think they don't. You know what I mean? You know what I mean? They're going to college, they don't make money for it.

SPEAKER_00 47:36

Like, make a good, a good lot.

SPEAKER_02 47:38

Not more money than entertainers or athletes. Just making billion.

SPEAKER_01 47:41

I mean, don't give me wrong. Don't don't give me wrong. The entertainers, the athletes, they're a bigger draw. But the teachers.

SPEAKER_02 47:48

But the teacher is the one that's about to teach your son how to tie his shoes. Which one you want? Which one you feel? You want you want the I'm saying it you're shaping the future. So if they're not, if the teacher's not getting paid enough money, they not finna want to come in the classroom with the biggest, you know what I mean? The biggest, I mean like the greatest attitude to teach your kids, the new generation. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_00 48:09

So Alright, so if we if we doing that then, if I feel like, because athletes and entertainers, same type of thing. They're getting paid based on results.

SPEAKER_01 48:19

Okay.

SPEAKER_00 48:19

So teachers, teachers get paid based on results, then, if that's the case.

SPEAKER_01 48:22

Okay, so what are before they are entertainers or athletes, what are they first?

SPEAKER_00 48:28

They're students, right? Not necessarily. I mean, you can you can be a student, like I'm thinking like college level, but yeah. Okay, okay, okay. Some people drop out of high school and become successful.

SPEAKER_01 48:38

That's true.

SPEAKER_00 48:39

Drop out of college and become successful.

SPEAKER_01 48:42

But I know what he's talking about.

SPEAKER_02 48:43

He's talking about just going all the way up, not yeah.

SPEAKER_01 48:45

You're talking about college, but just going to be a good idea. There's some there's this everybody remember a teacher in their life. All right.

SPEAKER_00 48:52

I would say, I would say this though. There's different levels to it. So should high school teachers be paid more than elementary schools?

SPEAKER_02 48:58

See, that's when it gets tricky. That's when it gets tricky, but everyone's a nice.

SPEAKER_00 49:01

No, because at the same time, some high school teachers are getting paid more than that. But who's really teaching more valuable lessons, the elementary school teacher or the high school one? In in today's time, in today's system.

SPEAKER_02 49:13

Yeah, that's where the that's where everything is messed up because it's some stuff that we learn in high school that's that is pointless.

SPEAKER_00 49:18

Exactly.

SPEAKER_02 49:19

And then it's some stuff that we learn in you know middle school that you know I mean that we might use every day or something like that. Just, you know what I mean? The alphabet, you know what I mean? Like letters in the alphabet, you know, how to put words together, how to count, you know what I mean? That's that could be more valuable than stuff we learned in high school. But like what I said, like what do you what do y'all think? Like the what do you think would be fair?

SPEAKER_01 49:39

Like who athletes or so why why would you say elementary teachers uh need to get paid more?

SPEAKER_00 49:45

Because they're they're they're they're teaching more of the basis of skills that you would need in life more than math or science or something like that.

SPEAKER_02 49:54

Yeah, like how to allow how to read a clock. Like, you know, some like you know what I mean. My last job, I had to, you know, talk to certain you know, kids and stuff like that. They don't know how to pay on the colour.

SPEAKER_00 50:03

Read a clock. Okay. Because I can tell you this. This kids at the high school now that's illiterate. They know how to read or write. They know how to speak, they don't know how to read or write. So it's what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_01 50:13

Is that the teacher's fault or is that the parent's fault?

SPEAKER_00 50:15

Who knows? Both.

SPEAKER_01 50:16

But it could be, it can be the yeah, it could be the teacher's fault.

SPEAKER_02 50:19

Because they're not getting paid this type of money, so why would they come in here and like you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_00 50:23

I'm gonna say, why you passing this kid if you know he can't do this? You're right, schools do that. They just want to get rid of them, get out of my face, go let the next teacher do it. You're right. Now they graduate in high school, can't read or write, and then they're gonna be in the real world, not being leader of them.

SPEAKER_02 50:39

I done ran into a lot of people that don't know how to read a clock. Oh, facts. Like, you know what I mean? Stuff like that. Like facts. Don't know, don't know, like, you know what I mean, times table, stuff like that. Like, so that y'all proved my point on how vital teachers are. No, I'm saying it is like that, but that's how the that's how stuff is messed up. Like, it's messed up. They don't make, you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_00 51:00

But then again, I feel like you don't really need a teacher for that, bro. You can just go read a book. If you know, if you know how to read, like if you know the basis of reading, like obviously you're gonna learn how to read somewhere. Yeah. But parents should be taking their time to teach their kids how to read when they not in school, which is why our kids be at terrible reading levels now. They should be doing more reading when they get home, not just at school. But if you know how to do that and you get to the late the age where you actually start understanding stuff, you'll probably learn more stuff reading a book than you will actually being in a classroom.

SPEAKER_01 51:30

So is it better or more effective becoming a teacher or an entertainer?

SPEAKER_02 51:35

I mean, I feel like in today's world, it'll probably be an enter. Entertainer is everybody on the other side.

SPEAKER_00 51:41

No, you can also say it's more stability being a teacher.

unknown 51:44

Facts.

SPEAKER_00 51:45

Because, like I said, being an entertainer is based on results. If you're not producing, you're not getting paid. So for sure.

SPEAKER_01 51:52

So that's why you think entertainers should get paid more.

SPEAKER_00 51:55

It's more risk. Higher the risk, the higher reward.

SPEAKER_01 51:58

Yeah, you're right. You're right.

SPEAKER_02 52:00

Yeah, when you put it like that, yeah, it is it is a higher risk because you you definitely gotta have results. You definitely gotta have to have it. I'm right with the gotta keep putting yourself out there as something, you know what I mean, that you're accomplishing something. So Yeah.

SPEAKER_00 52:13

Cause I think like in football, if you're not producing, they're gonna get somebody else who will. Then you out of a job.

SPEAKER_01 52:20

Man, the most vital man teachers are man, like elementary school teachers. Period, teachers, period. Nah, bro.

SPEAKER_03 52:28

High school.

SPEAKER_01 52:29

So you don't think high school teachers are essential.

SPEAKER_00 52:33

I mean, they're they're good, but they're good, but it's like what it's.

SPEAKER_02 52:36

Yeah, it is good, but like it's go back to what you say, like I learned I learned a lot of pointless stuff in high school, like stuff that I'm not using today, stuff that I didn't forgot.

SPEAKER_00 52:48

They get you because the curriculum is like, yeah, they they get you the base, they get you the base of what what you're probably going to need to, you know, move into your career. Yeah. Because like once you get to college and you start actually, you know, focusing on that. It's like, it's like, okay, let's say I'm I'm going into engineering. All the math stuff I learned all throughout high school, I'm gonna have to apply it now. I'm not gonna have to apply the history lesson or the science or anything. Yeah, so it's you know, yeah, just uh it's I don't know. Curriculum is terrible though. Curriculum is definitely terrible, it has to change.

SPEAKER_01 53:18

It has to change. It has to adapt to this time.

SPEAKER_00 53:21

Now, if you're talking about in high school, they teach you, they got personal finance classes. I guess now they do, but it's not like if you if you teaching people how to really handle money or how to file taxes or how to go through their daily life of applying themselves to something you're actually going to do every single year, yeah, I got you. But if you just sticking to your base subjects, math, science, history, social studies, how to write a check.

SPEAKER_02 53:45

It's a reason why it's like that, though. They yeah, it's just I don't like it. It's a reason why it's like that. Like they they, you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_00 53:54

They want to keep the it's not the it's not the teacher's fault for that. I say that's not the teacher's fault. Okay, okay. But until that change, no, they should still be getting paid what they get. Some teachers is getting paid a lot of money.

SPEAKER_02 54:09

Yeah, it depends on what it is.

SPEAKER_01 54:13

I didn't know. I didn't know it's getting paid.

SPEAKER_00 54:15

Nah, if you really want if you really want to be a teacher, if you want to be a teacher and make money, go be a professor somewhere. Go to a college, you're making six figures. Easy.

SPEAKER_01 54:24

Yeah. Guaranteed.

SPEAKER_00 54:26

Guaranteed. Yeah, okay. You're making six figures.

SPEAKER_01 54:30

But you gotta start it at some level though.

SPEAKER_00 54:31

You have to at some point. Yeah, yeah. You got enough knowledge where you can be a professor and go to a college or wherever else and teach there, do it because you will be getting paid. And you're probably doing a lot less work too.

SPEAKER_01 54:43

Oh, yeah, I believe that in college for sure. But I still I believe that the entry level should be the teaching entry level.

SPEAKER_00 54:52

Where where do we where do y'all think that the base level teaching salary is?

SPEAKER_02 54:58

Uh I said uh yearly? Like annual? Uh what is you just saying any what they're making per year? What what what grade is we talking about though? Like what type of what type of teacher?

SPEAKER_00 55:14

Like, just entry level. Just in general, yeah. I would say I was gonna say first, like I think teachers get paid their salary based on experience. So like if this is your first or second year, like obviously this is your entry.

SPEAKER_02 55:26

I say like I say like maybe like 65, 65,000.

SPEAKER_00 55:30

So can you live a life?

SPEAKER_02 55:32

65,000, maybe, you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_00 55:34

Maybe can you can you live on it?

SPEAKER_02 55:36

Maybe lower than that.

SPEAKER_00 55:40

Okay, now if you're married.

SPEAKER_02 55:42

I mean, it it depends. It depends on it I most teachers is is is married.

SPEAKER_00 55:46

Yeah.

SPEAKER_02 55:47

Uh there's a lot, there's a lot of young ones. There's a lot of ones that are single, yeah. Okay, okay. Uh that don't mean I'm dating. Yes, I can say you can live off that. Would it be a uh, you know what I mean, a lavish lifestyle? Maybe not, but you definitely live off that.

SPEAKER_00 56:04

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 56:06

I feel like they make, I feel like they don't make enough though, but facts.

SPEAKER_01 56:10

I I always thought that. I always thought that's it.

SPEAKER_02 56:12

But it makes sense though. Entertainers definitely should make more for Corey, so it's more of a risk. It's more of a risk, you gotta get it.

SPEAKER_01 56:17

Right, because they get paid by production. Yeah, by the way.

SPEAKER_02 56:22

Teachers are getting paid by the hour, you know what I mean? Days they putting in the streets.

SPEAKER_01 56:27

But I feel like the kid learn or not.

SPEAKER_02 56:29

Teachers should be a little, little, you know what I mean?

SPEAKER_01 56:31

Yeah, they I think they I still think they cut them. They they undercut them.

SPEAKER_00 56:35

Yeah, I'll tell you this, based on just looking at this now, it says in the state of Michigan is one of the lowest ranked hands-down states in the nation as far as teaching salaries. But the average is in Michigan still 69,000.

SPEAKER_01 56:52

Oh, that's average?

SPEAKER_00 56:53

Average.

SPEAKER_01 56:54

Okay.

SPEAKER_02 56:55

Yeah, that's more than I thought.

SPEAKER_00 56:57

Yeah, that's that's average.

SPEAKER_02 56:58

What's the highest state they're paying in?

SPEAKER_00 57:00

Uh I don't know the highest state.

SPEAKER_02 57:03

Probably down south.

SPEAKER_00 57:04

Nah, they're they're dumbest. Never mind.

SPEAKER_01 57:07

No, man, don't do that, man. How they need to show you. You must hey man, don't talk about what people know. It's gotta be north, man.

SPEAKER_00 57:18

I'm gonna look. Hold on.

SPEAKER_02 57:20

Probably way up north. I got another question, too. It's gonna slide right into this. So pause. Uh that's crazy.

SPEAKER_03 57:28

See, baby, he got paused the other day, man. Okay, you gotta pause yourself around core.

SPEAKER_00 57:35

He put you on the spot. You gotta say, life is good. Pause. Here we go. Here we go. The highest average teaching salaries, this is 24, 25, not 25, 26. California. Yeah, I figured. I figure. Clearly. Average is 100,000.

SPEAKER_01 57:49

Clearly. But that's because of the cost of living. Cali is crazy to labor.

SPEAKER_00 57:54

New York, 95,000. Okay, I can see that. Massachusetts, 92,000. The state of Washington, 91. D.C., 86. D.C., I figured. Connecticut, 86. Jersey, 81. Maryland, 79. Rhode Island, 79. Maryland don't do it like that? Yeah.

SPEAKER_01 58:10

Wow.

SPEAKER_00 58:11

And Alaska, 78.

SPEAKER_01 58:14

Alaska. I can see Alaska.

SPEAKER_00 58:16

There's nobody.

SPEAKER_01 58:18

Just because of population. Yeah, I can see Alaska.

SPEAKER_00 58:22

Yeah, Michigan's lowest.

SPEAKER_01 58:24

Maryland, that's that should be Maryland up there.

SPEAKER_02 58:25

That's crazy. Yeah, Michigan is the lowest. That's what they're like.

SPEAKER_00 58:28

Michigan's ranked 44th in the nation.

SPEAKER_02 58:30

That's crazy. Damn, man. I'm sorry. I knew teachers didn't make money. I knew that. Like I just knew. Like you would tell by the channel. For real. Because that'd just change the whole thing. You know what I mean? Teachers getting paid good money. They're gonna want to come in with a good attitude. They're gonna, you know, be able to deal with the bad kids. You know what I mean?

SPEAKER_01 58:47

That's why I think they should get paid private school. Yeah, dude. I mean that's the last question that we got.

SPEAKER_02 58:55

Do y'all think uh nine to five is outdated?

SPEAKER_01 58:58

Nah.

SPEAKER_02 58:59

In the life we live in right now.

SPEAKER_01 59:01

You gotta need it.

SPEAKER_02 59:02

I'm saying though, like with just you know, internet technology, stuff like that. You know what I mean? Say, nah. You move somewhere, you on your phone all day. Do you think a nine to five is outdated rather than back in the day? You know, and back in the day, they get a job, get married, buy a house.

SPEAKER_00 59:19

I'm gonna say no, just because without those nine to five jobs, our country wouldn't run it off. Yeah, it wouldn't run it off.

SPEAKER_02 59:26

I'm saying though, but AI technology shapes America. When AI get taking over humans, then what?

SPEAKER_00 59:31

I mean, AI, you got AI, but they're not gonna do the physical like that. No. Another 15 years old.

SPEAKER_01 59:36

You're gonna always need with AI, yeah, it's gonna take a lot of the tech jobs, but you're gonna always need somebody to operate it.

SPEAKER_02 59:42

Yeah, but what happens when you got the little AI dog operating it?

SPEAKER_01 59:47

You're gonna need somebody to operate that AI dog.

SPEAKER_03 59:49

No, it's dog.

SPEAKER_01 59:50

Corey's gonna be sitting in the control room pressing the button, that's gonna be operating it. You're gonna need a technician for everything. I'm saying, man. You're gonna need everything that our world is the technical world. So we're gonna need somebody who can operate that world. So 95, and like Corey said, 95 shapes America. This is this is what that the country is built off of. So it's like, no, they're not the same as back then when they first like created after, you know, everything was hard labor. After we were free, yeah, after slavery and all that. You didn't brought up slavery. No, no, no. I said after slavery. After slavery. Because that's when we was able to work, so now you know you got more nine to five.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:33

No, we was working during slavery.

SPEAKER_01 1:00:34

We know, but we were here. We weren't like we were getting paid to five. According to them, it was just billing that uh somewhere asleep, but no, we wouldn't get paid. Like we get money to provide for our families to go out. That's getting five cents a day talking about. They probably weren't even getting that. Yeah, so they're not the same as today, but you're gonna nine to five is just work a hundred days just to get 95 is one day.

SPEAKER_02 1:01:02

I just know if I was never mind, we ain't gonna get too deep into that.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:05

I just know if I was back in the day if you was in it, if you were to oh man, bro. I wouldn't have mad it.

SPEAKER_01 1:01:13

I would have been I would have been mad. It's all you'd have been in the house. House Negro.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:19

I'm in the house negro.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:34

And you see, you see how Antoine wearing his hat? That's how he like the sun coming from the coming from the east.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:40

Oh man, come on.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:43

I was thinking. I'm gonna have to bleep that out. I'm gonna have to bleep that out.

SPEAKER_03 1:01:52

For real, man.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:54

Alright, bruh. Come on. Let's do it, man. Yeah, man.

Kind of want to start this month all right. I did hit the gym this week. Yeah. Yeah. I did fall off. It's hard being consistent, man. I'm gonna keep it. I'm just be transparent. It's hard being consistent, especially when you got stuff, life coming in the middle of everything. Yep, yep. Still got bills due. You know what I mean? Yeah, stuff like that. So I uh I'm trying to start the month off right, still being consistent and just trying to be trying to keep myself motivated. Yeah. So I say that's my out will being motivated, keep myself on track.
