SPEAKER_00 0:48

Welcome, everybody. Welcome to the truth ain't in us. I'm Tanya Wilder, your host, and the word is on the streets. Everybody wants to be an influencer. Everybody wants to be an influencer now. And nobody wants to actually work a nine to five. Nobody wants to go to college. That's because everybody wants to do social media. And they've been told that they can get rich posting. But let's talk about that. How many of y'all actually make money from social media? Or are you posting every day looking uh for success uh and you're still broke? Are you looking for success and you're still broke? That's the question for tonight. You know? But all I have to say about this is who actually lied to this generation? Because everybody that's an influencer, you see winning on the internet or pretending that like they're winning on the internet, um, they're not making thousands of dollars behind the scenes. They're not making millions of dollars behind the scenes. All the ring lights, the glitz and the glamour, some of them have no plan, no income on how they're going to be successful in doing this. And I'm just here to say, welcome to the truth ain't in us. We're going to talk about that tonight. And we're here to say what everybody else is afraid to say. And I want to also tell you guys if you're here for the first time, welcome to the show. We thank you for joining us. Please like, subscribe, and hit the notification button. Okay. Please, if you have some time right now, share this with a friend. Ask them to come on. And we're about to get the show starting. Started, I should say, starting, okay. So, guys, drop what you're watching right now and pay attention. I'm about to bring one of my special guests and host uh back. And you know he doesn't hold back. He says what he means, he means what he says. Don D, Don of all Don, welcome to the show. What's going on? Hey, I'm glad to be back.

SPEAKER_07 3:27

Let me have made it off the chopping block. I'm glad to be back.

SPEAKER_00 3:30

Why are you even hold on? Why are you on the chopping block? I don't know. I don't know. But guess what?

SPEAKER_07 3:37

What? Like, subscribe, notify, tell somebody, go next door, tell somebody about the truth ain't in us. Hey, listen, man, get out here. Let's make it happen. Everybody have a great show. What's going on? Welcome back. Hey, thank you for having me back, though. Thank you. We're about to rock it out.

SPEAKER_00 3:53

I'm trying to make you permanent, but I don't know. You keep uh showing up, showing up. But you got to do things behind the scene, too.

SPEAKER_07 4:03

Yeah, yeah. I'm gonna hire somebody.

SPEAKER_00 4:05

I'm gonna hire somebody, and it's not a lot that you have to do, it's just a little. They point me in the right direction. Yeah, it's dealing with posting, making a 30-second clip. Everybody, and I'm glad this goes perfect for what the show is about tonight because people don't realize that it takes a lot behind the scenes when you're doing social media, when you're an influencer, when you have a podcast. It's a lot of work that goes in behind the scenes, especially if you're not getting paid for it. And I again I appreciate you for being here because you and I, we're not making no money right now. One day we do plan on getting there. I make money every day. What are you talking about? I mean from the show.

SPEAKER_07 4:48

I'm talking about don't put that on me. Listen, I get it. Listen, but you gotta understand me. I'm before the internet, I'm really boots on the ground type guy. I'm really out here real life. You know what I mean? I ain't on social media, I ain't sitting back, sitting back Twitter on my fingers, you know, being no chatty patty and or or or lurking or even commenting. Man, I'm out here really in the trenches, I'm really making it happen. That's you see what I'm saying. Now, I can probably get better at making it happen on the internet a little better, you know. I mean, but you gotta understand, I'm before the internet, I was born in the 1900s.

SPEAKER_00 5:26

Straight up, not the 1900s. That's when I was born. Oh my goodness. Well, it's something I I know we got our hot topics coming up, but I wanted to bring this up at the beginning of the show, and I don't know if you know who she is, uh Stormy Wellington. Tell me about her. So she's a network uh marketing guru. And we write it out. Stormy Wellington, but she just got um what's the word I'm looking for? Um, the FTC actually came down on her, right? The alphabet boys, which is all I know. It's the Lord.

SPEAKER_07 6:13

Yes, okay.

SPEAKER_00 6:14

The feds, the alphabet, yeah, yeah, and they were saying that um my ears itching, so excuse me, guys. I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_07 6:22

That means somebody talking about you. That means somebody listening to you. That's good. That's a good sign.

SPEAKER_00 6:28

Yeah, I hope, yeah. Bring me some money, get me some money. But um, so they were saying that she made promises to people to become millionaires, right? Um, to get into the network marketing, and that a lot of people are doing that, but go ahead. But 70, the people that she brought in over the years, 76% of them made no money, and the ones who made money made very little money. And so I was watching her, and it's all been settled now, and she didn't have to pay any money, but I think she has stricter guidelines on what she can say and how she can say things to promote her business. But the one I I was listening to her on an interview this morning, and she was saying how a lot of people, you know, that she brought in didn't actually do the work. They wanted the gratification, they saw her lifestyle, the money, the cars, um, her and her luxury life, but yet they didn't put in the work. And that brings it back to what you and I do, because we come from a sales background, right? And a lot of people see us being successful, and they be like, oh, um I want to do what you do, or I wanna, I wanna, you know, I want to make the type of money you make, but yet they don't put in the work. And all they see is what we have worked for over the years, because it didn't happen overnight, right? And they see what our hard work, blood, sweat, and tears have gotten us, but then when it comes to them putting in the work, they don't want to do the work. And I agree with Stormy when she says that because you and I have experienced this firsthand. I even, you know, I ran a team. Uh, well, let me just let me just say this, guys. Donnie and I both are successful in sales. We worked uh for the same security company, we won't call their names, but and I was one of the top producers on the team, he was one of the top producers on the team, and I went up into management and coaching people and changing people's lives financially. And I had this one particular young lady on my team who was struggling, beautiful young lady, and I hired Don D on the side to actually like coach her some because I think she wasn't grasping what I was what I was giving her, and um I don't think she grasped what you gave her either, but maybe she grasped it, but she didn't want to put in the work. So let's just talk about that for a minute before we move into our hot topics about how people don't actually make an effort to be successful.

SPEAKER_07 9:36

Exactly. You know, a lot of people want to be given, a lot of people want to work for somebody, you know. My big thing is I love freedom, you know. Freedom, you know, freedom. I don't want nobody to tell me when to come, when to go, when I go to lunch, when I'm getting off of work, when I gotta be at work. If I'm 15 minutes late because of the land of traffic, I'm about to get fired. Oh no, man, you know, like come on now. You know, um, if you got two people that die in the same week, you can't you gotta pick which funeral to go to because you can't take too much time off of work. You know, I believe job stands for just over broke. You see what I'm saying? It's just gonna give you enough money to come back. Now, work, I feel like you should want to work now. You need to embrace work, you know. Like I said, a boots on the ground. I think that's the most important thing. You have to get up, and some days you ain't gonna be successful, but then the next day you got to get up and get back after it. You know, everybody wants something easy, you know. And and and but I'm gonna be honest with you, AI is making a lot of things easy. So I would tell people to start learning AI, you know. I mean, because it's made my life easy. I can just say something and they make me a flyer, they make me whatever I need to make, they do all types of stuff. I'm just like it's crazy in this instance, stuff that would have taken three weeks for us to do, stuff that we'd have hired somebody to do, you know. So a lot of the things is just about waking up, getting after it, working hard, you know. I always say this, you know, when when um when Eve ate that apple, right? God came and he said, Hey Adam, what's going on, man? You're gonna have to. I gave you everything, but guess what? You're gonna have to work for everything you get. Now, that's what he gave him. That was his punishment to work for everything he gets. So, as a man, now I don't know about the women's standpoint, but as a man, we gotta work hard, we gotta get after it. We can't expect for somebody to give us some money. We gotta go out and eat what we kill, kill what we eat. It's just what it is. So that's how I feel about work. So when you I'm very passionate about work because I get after it every day, I just need an opportunity, and so many other people just need the opportunity, and not saying that young lady she didn't work hard because she did, because she did want to get out there and do it, you know. I mean, I've made her go out there and show her boots on the ground.

SPEAKER_00 11:57

Hey dog, this is but she wasn't consistent after that, she was doing it because you were with her every day the two days or however long I had her training with you, and as soon as that stopped, she stopped. But a lot of people want the easy way out, don't take and that's my point.

SPEAKER_07 12:15

But don't take people don't want to work for it. Don't take the easy way out. Everybody's over there in line. I don't want to go over there. A lot of people like, oh, everybody's no, let me go over here. Let me see what they're looking at, let me buy whatever they're not what they're buying, but why are they buying what they're buying? And that's what I'm gonna buy.

SPEAKER_00 12:33

But here's the thing, Don D. Let's be realistic. Sales is not for everybody. Okay, but sales happen every day, it does, it does. But let me finish my statement. Okay, go ahead.

SPEAKER_07 12:48

I'm sorry.

SPEAKER_00 12:48

Sales is not for everybody, and what I mean by that is if you're a lazy person, if you have no get up about yourself, um, no ambition, or you're not even a people's person, then it's not for you because it involves building relationships at the end of the day. And those people do need a nine to five because they need structure. You and I know with sales, there's no we you set your own schedule, you work your own at your own pace. Um we work off uncapped um commissions. Um, some sales come some sales jobs do pay you uh a base salary. There's some salaries you can get 100,000, there's some salaries you can get 150,000 in sales, okay. I know because I work it, and it just depends. And that's why I say sales is not for everybody, because if you're lazy, you can't expect everybody to have the same hustle that you and I have.

SPEAKER_07 14:05

But but I I get that entirely, it should be for everybody, and let me tell you the reason why. No, okay, let me just tell you why. Let's just say I work for you and you give me $20 an hour, right? Say, like I wake up with the mindset of hey, I'm when I get the tiny today, I'm gonna work so hard, I'm gonna do everything she tells me to do. I'm gonna make sure I have everything, right? No, I'm just saying this for anybody, right? I'm just saying my mindset, how much are you gonna pay me in that moment? How much you're gonna pay me? $20 an hour, right? That's all you're gonna give me, right? But in sales, there's no cap. Let's just say I wake up with that mindset now, and I say, Oh, I wake up and I say, Oh, when I go to work, I'm gonna work so hard for myself, I'm gonna do everything I need to do. I'm gonna talk to everybody, I'm gonna make everybody love my product, I'm gonna sell as much as I can. Guess how many people don't it's it's not twenty dollars an hour, it's a thousand dollars an hour, it's five thousand dollars an hour.

SPEAKER_00 14:56

How many people we saw come and go at the company we work for? It was a revolving door, and that's because sales is not for everybody, Don D. I think again, you you're you're you're thinking like, and I don't want to call it say closed-minded, but you're just thinking everybody should be like us, everybody should have that mentality and want to make the money. And and guess what? They do want to make the money, they do want to make the money, but they don't want to work, they don't want the money, they don't want to work for the money, terrible, they they don't want to do the work, so that's why them people that's on the internet, Twitter finger talking about making no damn money, and we're gonna talk about that later because I I have I've done my research on that, and I'm gonna break all the numbers down on what these folks are not making on the internet, okay? I guess and I'm so glad. Listen, you want people to be successful, I want people to be successful, but they gotta want it for themselves. And a lot of people they're not gonna like what I'm about to say.

SPEAKER_07 16:10

Say it.

SPEAKER_00 16:13

Your asses are lazy, you're lazy, you have a one-track mind, you don't want to go out there and get it, you don't want to go out there and hustle, and you think that success happens overnight. And in some cases, it don't, it don't, but I'll tell you this.

SPEAKER_07 16:31

When I started in some cases, it don't.

SPEAKER_00 16:33

Well, I'm gonna say this when I worked in the mortgage industry and I first got into sales, I was making $19,000 a year, right? That was back in 2000, yeah, back in 2000. And my first month, or my second month, because my first month, I had it just all fell apart, but I had to learn a lesson, a valuable lesson. But my second month working at the mortgage company as a loan officer, okay, I made it was either between 10 or 20,000. I and I I I don't I don't remember the exact amount because I I know I was making like 20,000 some months and stuff like that. But I'm just saying it was instantly for me because I still put in the work. I I followed the model that was presented to me, and I learned my products, I learned what the company presented to me. And if people and that and what you're saying, if you look at Stormy Wellington, these people weren't making money because they didn't put in the work. She put in the work to become a multi-millionaire.

SPEAKER_07 17:51

You have to put it in the work. There's no other way, there's no other way. They said, let me just say this. They said I watched something. They said if you put take all the money away from everybody and put it all in one pot, they said in seven days it will go right back in the same people's pockets that it was in. Because let me tell you why, because they that mindset, because uh they want they they they been getting after it, you know. I mean, they ain't sleeping in, they waking up in the morning, they working on themselves. You see what I'm saying? They're going multiple streams of income, yeah. They're going to church, yeah. They're going to church, they doing everything they need to do to be successful, and that's what I feel like everybody has the capability to do, you know. So I just feel like what the church have to do with it. I I ring so the thing is when I work for somebody, I ring the alarm every time. You know what ring alarm means? I'm making so much money, they be like, what is he doing? What's he got going on? Like, he gotta be doing something wrong. No, let me tell you what I do. I reach out to my people. I it's word of mouth. Um I get out there every day and I tell them about my product, building relationships at the end of relationships, that's what it's about. But you also gotta be able to be presentable, you have to present yourself in a certain way as well, of course. You know, that's very important. And and everything is sales. I don't care if you're trying to talk to a girl, you're trying to sell her on why she needs to talk to you.

SPEAKER_00 19:18

You have to look the part, and you know what? I hate when people say fake it till you make it. You can't love that. I don't love that terminology never did exactly because it's gonna come back to bite you at the end. Now we got to get this show moving, and we're gonna move on to hot topics right now, guys. And we're gonna probably come back to this topic anyway, just based on tonight's topic. So, this stuff that people need to hear. This stuff that people need to get into. Well, we're coming back and go. We are coming back to this in just a minute. Oh no, let's go to the hot topic. So, guys, listen. Ring camera catches a man going crazy at someone's doorbell. Okay, y'all, when I tell you this man lost his mind at somebody's front door, whoo! Please watch the clip.

SPEAKER_04 20:12

For what? Uh I just want to make sure that uh everything's okay. There's some going on. What do you mean? I would have shot him already. Uh I don't know. I just figured I'd check on something. I don't know what you want, man. Get out of my house. Open this fucking door. Where's your daughter, man? Where's your daughter, man? Where's your daughter? Who's in there with you? Bro. Bro, if you don't leave this fucking door. Open this door, I'm breaking it fucking down. You understand me? Leave my house.

SPEAKER_03 20:43

You don't are you okay? Is everyone in this house? Everyone's okay. What do you want? Can you leave my house, please? You open the door, please. You have nothing to do with my house. Can you leave my house? You know what my name is? I don't know who you are. You don't belong to this neighborhood. That's for sure. This is my neighborhood, though. Yeah, I live there. I don't know you.

SPEAKER_06 21:42

My name is Harry Dresden, motherfucker. Open the door. This is my neighborhood. Open the fucking door.

SPEAKER_05 21:56

No. Or I will fucking inju. Do you understand me?

SPEAKER_00 22:15

Let's move to the second video.

SPEAKER_01 22:31

Victor, you are not going to be able to do that.

SPEAKER_02 23:13

Give me the fucking chest. Get the fuck out of my house. I'm telling you, get the fuck out of my house. Get the fuck out of my house. There's no one in.

SPEAKER_00 23:24

All right. So it's a long video. And the cops wind up coming. The homeowner was not at home at first. And he got back to the house. The man's already in his house. Don D, I'm gonna let you start start off first on this one.

SPEAKER_07 23:46

Uh well, let me just start off and say you need a security system or anything, man. Give me a call, man. I'll get the camera, outlook camera, automatic door lock, so you'll be able to see what's going on and everything, man. Just give me a call. I'll just I'll take care of that. But but but that's crazy, it's just what it is. Dude looks crazy, you know. I don't know what's going on with him. Um, the way I would approach them, he wouldn't be he wouldn't even got arrested. You come and ask him about my daughter. First of all, you at my door, then you kicking in and stuff. I would have speeded from wherever I was and came and handled that man, like that man did, but he wouldn't have got arrested. He would have had something else wrong with him, just to be honest with you. And I I just gotta say it as plain as day is like that. I'm not threatening nobody, I'm not saying it's just you know, you came to somebody's home, you banged on his door, you said you looking for his daughter, just violation in so many ways, you know. So, but now he's about to go somewhere where people probably gonna, you know, take care of him.

SPEAKER_00 24:51

So, well, uh in this video, he made a statement. We didn't get to that. Uh that uh the guy asked him a question and he said something about being in the military. So I think he's a vet, and he probably suffers with a mental illness at the end of the day. But means nothing. When you say it means nothing, what do you mean by that?

SPEAKER_07 25:20

You put yourself in harm's way by coming to somebody's house and acting that way. So mental illness in that case, you're a grown man, that means nothing. People, I'm gonna I'm gonna act and then ask questions later. And I'm pretty sure 99.9% of other men are gonna do the same thing.

SPEAKER_00 25:37

So let's talk about it. Let's talk about this because mental illness, you know, some people are not taking their meds, which keeps them from out of what do they call it, uh semantic, um, when they're uh activated. And I have a friend of mine who is schizophrenic, bipolar, smart, beautiful, but made a lot of money when she was able to work. But because of her mental illness, uh she can't work anymore. Uh, and it's caused her to do things that I would have never expected her to do, right? So I know mental illness is real, but like, what do we do? Like, how should he be handled at the end of the day? I know he's going to jail, or should he be taken to jail or taken to a mental institution? That is the question. And I'll say this with my friend, um, she was caught walking down the highway butt naked. Let me finish, butt naked here in Georgia, and they didn't take her to jail because once they realized who she was, because she wasn't taking her medication, they took her to an institution. Right? Granted, she didn't do what this guy here did. Because at the end of the day, what if he had a weapon? Right? And caused harm, physical harm to someone, killed someone. I just think it's a thin line when it comes to the mental health, when it comes to that part, breaking the law. And I don't know what needs to be done in this country to help people with mental illness at this point. I don't have the answer. I'm not a psychiatrist, and maybe that's a show we need to do and bring a psychiatrist on here to talk about it.

SPEAKER_07 27:54

I can't, I don't if I speak on that. I'm just gonna say something that's gonna tick a lot of people off.

SPEAKER_00 28:00

Well, let's tick the people off.

SPEAKER_07 28:01

I want to hear about so I can't, I I can't, I don't, I don't really want to. I don't really wanna because in that case, I don't care about mental illness. You asking about my daughter, you come into my house, you kicking my door, you came into my house, free that man. That's what I would say. So he come out as soon as he walk out, I'll punch him right in his shit, you know. So I'm just being I'm just being honest, like, but I don't think it needs to be an excuse to act a certain type of way. If you're harming yourself or something like that, you're yes mental institution, but once you start harming other people, yeah, jail, prison, I agree underneath it, throw away the key. I agree, especially if you're trying to hurt harm harm women and children or somebody because of whatever disability they have, you know. I don't think, but I do want to say this we're not people are not walking around saying that in in high school that they were in the slow class. You see what I'm saying? Yeah, so everybody's walking amongst everybody. That's why you have to be selective about the people that you choose to have in your life, people that you choose to interact with. Yes, it's okay. Nod your head, what's up, baby doll? But I'm not about to go over there and just indulge with everybody because spirit is real, energy is real, you know. So you don't want to put your energy around a lot of certain things, you know.

SPEAKER_00 29:33

Even if that's a family member, even if that's your family member, yeah, even if it's as a family member, that family member gotta stay over there.

SPEAKER_07 29:39

If he's weird and he's touching on children, or he's doing something like that. Man, that's a whole nother situation. Yes, it is, and it's the same thing if he's doing anything to harm anybody for me. I don't think it's mental illness. Look, if you are touching rocking and doing like this, no, it's no problem. But if you're hurting somebody, that's a problem.

SPEAKER_00 29:58

So that's all I said. Here's my thing: anybody that's hurting children and want to use the line that um it's mental illness, I'm not buying that.

SPEAKER_07 30:11

That's the first thing they say.

SPEAKER_00 30:12

Well, that's a lie because you know, right from wrong, you know you're not supposed to be touching little girls, little kids, little boys, whatever the case may be. I agree at the end of the day. I agree, and I was about to say this a lot of people use mental illness to get out of damn trouble, and that's what I wanted to say too. You said what you took it out of the camera. That's what I was saying. And I don't know, and that's why I say we need a psychiatrist to really dissect this because if I to be honest with you, I am not here for someone that wants to use mental illness and they robbed a bank, they robbed somebody, or they hurt somebody, or they've molested a kid or raped a woman. I don't want to hear shit about your mental illness at the end of the day. Because I believe a lot of people try to use mental illness as an excuse to commit crime. That's my belief.

SPEAKER_07 31:22

And they think it's just an easy way to get out when it's time to go to court, you know what I mean, or whatever. Oh, they're they're not even getting out of trouble.

SPEAKER_00 31:31

They're not getting out of trouble, and guys, please drop in the chat um what you believe when it, you know, do you believe a lot of people use mental illnesses to um to make an excuse for their bad behavior or breaking the law?

SPEAKER_07 31:52

But but let's not get it twisted. Some people are throwed off, some people are so because let me just tell you, it's all right to be a little. I tell people this it's okay to be a little sick in the head, right? Why is it okay to be sick but but but but what makes you a piece of shit is when you're when you sick right here in the heart, you know what I mean? Because the heart ain't gonna allow you to do certain things, the heart ain't gonna allow you to raw that pain, a heart ain't gonna allow you to do certain things, you know. I mean, it's not gonna allow you to do it, so that's what you know that that like people gotta have a heart, people gotta have well. They're demonic, and that's what demons, and that's it. You just asked, you just said about I said about 18 minutes ago. You said, What does God got to do with it? Oh, church. I didn't say nothing about though, don't misinterpret my words.

SPEAKER_00 32:40

I said, What does church have to do with it? Yeah, what a church got to do with it because your church is in your heart, first of all. That's that's what I mean.

SPEAKER_07 32:47

That's what I mean. So church is everywhere. You see what I'm saying? Church is not a building, we go to the building to fellowship. That's what I meant, and that's why I knew we were standing on that together. Okay, so that's what I'm that's what I was trying to get to. So I was being to say God, I meant to say church, you know what I mean? Because church should be right here, you know what I mean? And but you also but the gym is right here too, right? But right, right, the gym is right here too. You can do the gym at home, you can do the gym, but you still want to go to the gym, you still want to go to the gym every once in a while and work out. So that's why church is so so good, because you need that. You need some people go to the gym and don't even work out.

SPEAKER_00 33:25

You need people go to the gym to chat. But let me tell you something, they ain't even working out, they ain't losing no weight, they're not getting in shape.

SPEAKER_07 33:32

80% of success is showing up, missing me with that. But eventually they're gonna do 10 of them, they're gonna do 10.

SPEAKER_00 33:38

But if they was at home, they wouldn't have done 10. I got a friend, her husband goes to the gym every damn day, and he's getting bigger and bigger. He might he's not he's not he's not going to the gym. Yes, he is. He's going to the gym. But guess why he's going there? He's gonna socialize. No, he goes to sit and talk with the fellas and laugh, and he ain't doing no workout. Well, next time you talk to him, next time you get in the meeting with him or something.

SPEAKER_07 34:05

You all you need to say, you need to do some reps when you go talk. You need to jump in, like for real. Jump in, but but at least he goes, at least he has the mindset to go, you know. So eventually he's gonna start doing something.

SPEAKER_00 34:21

He's been doing this for 20 years.

SPEAKER_07 34:23

So I'm trying to help you, big dog. Try to help you, okay.

SPEAKER_00 34:29

So let's move on to the second topic of the night. I mean, this yeah, hot topic of tonight. Lord have mercy. I think it's a photo we have. Okay, so I don't know how many of you guys are watching uh Beverly Hills Housewives, but I know a lot of us well, the women we wear Rachel Zoe's clothing. Love Rachel Zoe. She is a Rachel Zoe um designer, and she's on um the Beverly Hills Housewife now. But there was a situation where her um husband at the time, I believe he's his her ex now, uh, started dating uh, I believe it's his secretary because that's who he's with now, uh allegedly. And we talked about this last week. How these women, or not even women, these side pieces aren't afraid to be in public with these married women or married men. And I thought I had a quote on there, I can't see it, where the side piece, that's the side piece on the left-hand side. Rachel Zoe is the one with the crown. I I love that. She's wearing that crown, baby. That's what I'm talking about. And I love her style, I love her fashion, and I think the lady who's seeing her husband on the left-hand side, uh, or her ex-husband now, uh, she is a what do you call the um oh my god, a stylist. And I guess they had some words because the same thing Kim Kardashian was. Yes, and they always stealing somebody's man. So she might turn into a billionaire. Well, Rachel's old husband, he he's very prominent, but Rachel is self-made.

SPEAKER_07 36:33

I'm talking about the mistress, might turn into a billionaire. She's taking Kim Kardashian that's all I'm saying.

SPEAKER_00 36:40

So I just want so I brought this up to say, like, again, we talked about this last week. People, society today has no shame when it comes to dating a married man or dating a married woman. And should we hold the side pieces just as much accountable as we should the person that's cheating on the spouse? Yeah, to take a drink to that, huh? Oh, you asking me? Yes, oh, you're ready for me to go.

SPEAKER_07 37:23

Okay, listen, yes, okay, but it it but the woman said what women are gonna sit back and say they're gonna say they didn't know a lot of the times that he didn't give them a choice, so that's why if he gave them a choice, and that's why I tell men a lot to be very upfront with women, they'll really rock with you if you're up front. You can say whatever you want sometimes. If a woman likes you, she's gonna rock with you. So, you know. So I think if that was the case, yes, the side chick should be accountable the same way as everybody else. She knew so. Yes, she should be accountable because because women think what you're doing, you're messing with a union, but no telling what the man's doing. He might be lying, saying, I'm leaving her, she's divorcing me. And and what's her name again, Rachel. What's her name? Rachel Zoe. Rachel Zoe could probably be giving this man hell too, and making his household a hell hole where he has to reach out to this woman, so it's a lot of different scenarios.

SPEAKER_00 38:24

He has to reach out to this woman because she's talking about leaving them, she ain't letting them get so that makes it right. So, does that make it does that make it right for him to cheat? Because his house, they have issues in the household. We need to also have they also have children, put the man up there beside them.

SPEAKER_07 38:44

The man ain't up there. I didn't see what he what he got going on, man.

SPEAKER_00 38:47

Talk to him he got money, man. That don't mean nothing. Well, it means something to a lot of these women. It means something these women are out here chasing the bag, like this.

SPEAKER_07 38:59

That's why in a situation like this chasing the bag. If if I had a situation, oh, I agree, man. Like that's why they're in a situation like this, because them guys are lame, lame with money. That's why I want to see him put him up there, man. I'm just uh you gotta put him up there.

SPEAKER_00 39:15

I'm just saying, I just thought Colin's gotta find, I'm just talking crazy. I just you gotta find her, find her ex-husband and put a picture of him up there, but um, yeah, I I I feel like whether it's a man or a woman that's the side piece, they are responsible as well because eventually you're going to know about it if that man has somebody, even if he's lying to you at first, okay, because nine times out of yeah, nine times out of out of ten, a man, if he if you can't call him while he's at home, he's probably got somebody. Um, if he's not spending the night over at your house, he's probably got somebody. Okay. If you, if he has to sneak around and not be in photos with you because you're out on a date with him or whatever, he's got somebody. So there are many ways. There, and I think that the men give off the signs that they're married, and so do the women. So you have to miss me with all of that I did not know. And we are in what 2026? Women know what are the what are the number one excuses married men give to these women that they're cheating with?

SPEAKER_07 40:39

Oh, I'm about to get divorced, we're sleeping in separate beds, we got businesses together, we got we got businesses, the kids.

SPEAKER_00 40:48

I gotta wait until the kids graduate. Like, we've like if you're that dumb and that lame, it's because you want to be dumb and lame.

SPEAKER_07 40:56

I I ain't gonna tell you what I do. What do you do? I it's not what I do, I'm not married, but if you know, I wouldn't do it if I was married because I know I mess with God, and God, it ain't nothing good gonna happen from it when you when you when you mess with a uh a union, you know. I mean, so y'all just need to go ahead and divorce or do whatever y'all gonna do, and so y'all can do what it is that y'all want to do, or yeah, go ahead and get all your blessings, stay together and get all your blessings and grow and you know, and and work through all the hard times. That's what a lot of people do.

SPEAKER_00 41:31

And people aren't gonna like what I'm about to say. These married men who are cheating, and married women who are cheating. You are stopping your blessings. It's a fact, you are stopping your blessings when you that's a fact, and your blessings may yeah, if you're married, and when I say blocking your blessings, you it could be something that affects your children, your bloodline.

SPEAKER_07 41:57

If you ain't telling the truth, you're gonna stop your blessings, period. Yeah, if you're lying, there you go. And you hiding behind something, and you being conniving, and you sneaky, and you you know, you ain't gonna get your blessings that way anyway. And the truth always comes to light. What you do in the dark gonna come to the light. You might win for that moment in the long run. Ain't nothing good gonna come to you, and it's just what it is, you know. It's just and it never lasts, they get together.

SPEAKER_00 42:24

Her and that man ain't gonna.

SPEAKER_07 42:25

I won't even talk about relationships, I'm talking about anything in life.

SPEAKER_00 42:29

Anything you gotta be truthful about everything, absolutely, absolutely, and so I want you guys to please drop in the chat what you believe when it comes to these side chicks and side dicks. Um that was funny how they uh should they be held accountable just like the person that's cheating that's married, okay? And so we're gonna get into tonight's uh show, guys. Okay, yeah, I'm with you. Um, influencers, dreams, uh broke reality. Who lied to this generation? Who lied to this generation?

SPEAKER_07 43:18

Nobody lied to them. Nobody lied to him. No, let me tell you who lied. Let me know, nobody lied to him. Nobody, nobody, nobody. And let me tell you why nobody lied to him because they these this generation is flying. I heard JC say I was listening to my president's black the other day, and J Z said a rhyme on there that just just just was crazy. He said, What he said, he said, Rosa Parks sat, rosa parks Rosa Parks sat so Martin Luther can run. Barack Barack Rama ran so all the children can fly. He said something like that. I can't tell you what he said, but it was fine. Go listen to it, okay and What I mean by that is these kids don't want to work nine to fives, these influencers don't want to do that. These influencers are seeing the bigger picture, they see and they jumping. I heard Steve Harvey tell me something, and this is what made me quick the nine to five. I swear to god, I heard Steve Harvey say this. I put this in everything I love, and Steve Harvey. I never thought I would say Steve Harvey, the comedian, would make me do something, but he did. And he might look at this. Matter of fact, tag Steve Harvey and then so you can look at this. Steve Harvey, I was looking at Steve Harvey one day, and Steve Harvey said, Hey man, if you really want to go somewhere, you gotta jump. You gotta jump off the cliff. You gotta jump. You can't you can't sit back and stay comfortable. You gotta jump. And he said, When you jump, it's called the leap of faith. And that's what he said. He said, You're gonna and he said he's gonna hit your back on the curb, I mean on the side or on the branches, and everything. But what he said, God ain't gonna hit you, let you hit rock bottom. You're gonna end up starting soaring like an eagle. And when Steve Harvey said that I walked in my job so confident, I said, They told me something to do. I don't know what they told me to do, but they told me they probably said, God, this is what I need you to do. And I said, Stop kissing my ass. I'm 30 years old, I retired from working in 95, and I never worked in 95 a day in my life after that because of Steve Harvey. So, Steve Harvey, I appreciate you for that. And you can go back and probably Google what he said. So I know I didn't say it right, but a lot of if you go back and look at it, it's very inspirational, and and you'll fly like an eagle, too. And I ain't never missed a BO or Mio, as you can see, at all.

SPEAKER_00 45:47

So, how many followers do you need to actually become an influencer? One a hundred thousands, millions, so fluencer, and before you answer, and before you answer that, are people faking their success so they can look successful? That's what because we just talked about faking it until you make that's what internet is, you know what I'm saying?

SPEAKER_07 46:15

That's what Instagram is, that's what tick tock is. That's them people's highlight reel. They ain't showing you the struggling, they ain't showing you the crime, they ain't showing you the how I'm gonna pay this bill next week, they showing you the ocean view, they show, but they they ain't tell you that they're down on a uh a cheerleading tournament with their daughter, so they was going anyway, but they showing you the ocean and the lovely lifestyle and uh everything, they ain't showing you the struggle on the internet, they're not showing you that show the struggle, and that's why the people that show the struggle. That's why Casa Nat's making nine million dollars a month when he was streaming. He's made speed's making four million dollars a month. When we tell you why, because they showed the struggle. Cassina showed a uh a rat running through his house, and that blew him up, blew him through the roof.

SPEAKER_00 47:05

Show the struggle if you're gonna show the good stuff, show the bad stuff, show the bad stuff, and a lot of people don't want to do that, they want to be fake, and a lot of these influencers, yeah. But a lot of these influencers are renting these outfits because you know you can go online nowadays and rent rent the bowls, rent the rent the purses about it, okay, and send that shit back. That's a lot of these, yeah. But a lot of these young people see all of this and they believe in the hype, right? And so they believe in the hype. I'm telling you, they are believing the hype. And what I did was I did some research, okay. So I'm gonna pull up my research here because this, yes, this is this like really knocked me off my feet because a lot of people me right off from my feet. Oh, now you're a singer. Lord have mercy. Oh my god. That save that for your um for your lady, okay. So we all see these people that they say they're millionaires and all that. Okay, so with me doing my research, it says only about four percent of influencers are making real money. That means if you have you take a hundred people, okay, that quit their job and become influencers, four people, not 96 of them are struggling or are broke. Don't do it. Okay, and that's because they're not put first of all, the people who are at the top, they're putting in the work. They're putting in the work. And like you stated, they're keeping it real, they're being 100 about their lives, their lifestyle. They're not trying to sugarcoat shit uh for the internet. And my thing is a lot of these kids aren't going to college because they want to be influencers. And I'm gonna say this, and I'm gonna say this out loud. You cannot take an educated person, you can't take that education away from their mind. A mind is really and truly a terrible thing to waste. And what I mean by all of this is once you're educated, you got the skill set, the mindset, and you want to go out there and be an influencer on the side, fine, but you still gotta pay bills, you still gotta live. Okay, you're still gonna have bills every day or every month, so there's no way around it. And a lot of them are being lied to by these people on the internet. They see them living uh a fabulous life, but like you stated earlier, AI, right? You can go on AI, take a picture. Well, you can take a picture of yourself, ask AI to put you in a three-piece suit, a two-piece suit, put you in an office, put you on a plane. AI can put you anywhere you want to be, dress you however you want to be dressed, and make people think that you got it going on. And some of these people are living in apartments, okay, ain't got no furniture. Okay, ain't got no car, or they're renting cars. I've heard about that too. I don't know about you, Don Di. A lot of people rent cars. I'm just being no, no, no. Well, you rent do you rent cars just to go to the club? No, no, like Ferraris. I rent a toy on the camera yet. I already're renting Ferraris to go to the club.

SPEAKER_07 51:04

Because I drive around so much and I'll be in different places. We ain't on, we're not talking about the same thing. Oh, for Ferraris, no, I don't rent stuff like that. No, no, I don't rent escalate. But I'm just saying, now if I I buy a black truck every once in a while, you know, if I got you know, like to go somewhere or something like that, that's how I kind of do it. Just get black, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 51:26

But a lot of these people are faking it, but uh they are and what do you tell your young kids? What do you tell your young boys who see all of this? Don't care about it, don't care.

SPEAKER_07 51:37

Like, what if they cut off Wi-Fi? What you gonna do? Period. What if they cut the internet off? What you gonna do? I'm still gonna eat, I'm still gonna strive like it ain't nothing. I wouldn't even care, I wouldn't even know probably until four o'clock p.m. that internet was cut off every day. Yeah, I'm just being honest. Like, I wouldn't know until I go try to check to see something. That's it. But other than that, you know, I'm actually living life, like I told you, it's boots on the ground. People are lying to you, people like, but at the same time, it's like that in everything, you know. I mean, I don't care what you do, uh, out of a hundred people of what you do, 96 four percent are only gonna make it because four percent are only willing the ones that are willing to have what it takes to put in the work and do what it takes, and that's what I was telling you. And the other 96 are gonna be like, uh, I ain't gonna go there. I'm gonna go the easy way, right? I'm gonna go the easy way. Like the easy way, the easy way is not there's no such thing as the easy way. I want to go the hard way. I rather go, I'd rather fight the bully first. I'm just being honest, I don't want to fight the weak person, I'll fight the bully just to show you that even if the bully beat me up, nobody else is gonna bother me because I did something 96 of y'all would never ever do was step up to this man. Well, so that's why I win.

SPEAKER_00 53:03

That's what social media now has people quitting their jobs. Yeah, well, people are quitting their jobs to chase something that statistically won't even pay them.

SPEAKER_07 53:14

Well, it's not it's not about paying them sometimes. Some people just enjoy so how you gonna pay your bills.

SPEAKER_00 53:20

I enjoy doing this, but I know I'm not making money out there. People doing this right now on Instagram, so it don't matter if they get money or not out there, yeah. It does matter because they're at home living with their damn parents because they can't afford to go out there and live um on their own. But even the people that don't make it. Let me be very clear. Let me be very clear when I say this, okay? Let me be very clear. These young kids go get an education because there are jobs out there that will pay them a hundred thousand, that will pay them two hundred thousand, will even pay them three hundred thousand. And not everybody's gonna be rich, not everybody's gonna be millionaires. But so if you're telling me you're making two to three hundred thousand or four hundred thousand dollars a year, and you got a spouse, and together y'all making about a half a million a year that you can't live a good life, you can live a great life for that, but guess what?

SPEAKER_07 54:24

Exactly. Guess what, you're still talking about one percent of the um the population.

SPEAKER_00 54:28

Yeah, but if you but there are jobs out there that will pay them, they they think they think it's all on the social media know about them.

SPEAKER_07 54:36

Who will pay me four hundred thousand dollars uh uh uh a year right now? What job if I go to school? What do you mean if I go to school for four years right now? What school? There's tech there's tech jobs, okay.

SPEAKER_00 54:47

Okay, there are jobs what we do in sales, there they're all types of jobs, but you don't have to give you a lot of people. You have to go to school to be in sales. No, you don't, but you do need an education, and I'm not I'm I mean, our forefathers they fought for us to be to be able to go to school, okay. And I'm never going to um talk bad about someone becoming educated, um, going to college, getting a degree, or anything like that. I think it's very important.

SPEAKER_07 55:23

But I would say, can I say something? Can I cut you off?

SPEAKER_00 55:25

And I know that, and I do know college is not for everybody. Don't don't I'm not saying that, okay, because if if your child just isn't cut out for college, but still they can go get a trade. Okay, they still can take a trade and still be successful. They're welding jobs where they can become a welder, they can own their own company, uh learn uh electrician. There's so many other jobs and things out there. So I'm not going to dismiss um getting an education.

SPEAKER_07 56:00

But you said a lot of stuff you said was a trade, they could go to trade school and do that. Well, education, yes, they can do that as well.

SPEAKER_00 56:07

Yes, exactly, you're right.

SPEAKER_07 56:08

So I get what you're saying. I get what you're saying. You ain't saying college, you said sometimes just education, just just the know-how, the knowledge.

SPEAKER_00 56:17

Exactly. I agree. But do something, just don't rely on social media, is what I'm saying.

SPEAKER_07 56:26

Because social media obviously ain't paying or rely on social media, but but but I I I think people enjoy social media. I think social media makes people feel good. Social people, social media gets just from a positive standpoint. But let me tell you what social media.

SPEAKER_00 56:42

What social media make you feel good? You gotta do it.

SPEAKER_07 56:45

Can I tell you what's not not because you get to see people, you get to see your auntie, you get to see your family, you get to see little kids grow up from six years old, and they hitting the baseball over the fence, and it's a lot going on, and you see the cheers, you see a kid. So that's what, but let me tell you something about social media. What social media has ruined, it has ruined the 10-year, 20-year, 30-year reunions at school. Because oh, yes, because you already know how many kids that person got, what it looked like, how many pounds they gain. Oh my god, they buy, you know, everything about them before they even say that back in the day. You didn't know that type of stuff. You're like, oh, they're gonna stuck this up.

SPEAKER_00 57:24

Now you're like, you be shocked as hell that I'll put on uh 50, 80 pounds. Like, what the hell's going on?

SPEAKER_07 57:30

Now it's like you know already, you already know who this person is, and you haven't said a word to them in 30 years, and you know exactly who that person is.

SPEAKER_00 57:39

No, that's a true statement. Social media has its good and its bad, so that's why I'm just really good, honestly, you know, and I think a lot of people maybe they're tired of you know being underpaid on their jobs, and they turn to social media, but again, when you're uh because you because you are underpaid, okay, that that sounds like a personal problem. You need to do something.

SPEAKER_07 58:08

You need to what's happening in these workplaces is that the employees are better than the managers, so and people that are doing interviews, not everybody's cut out to be a manager doing the interviews are better than the managers, so the managers don't want to lose their job, so they're not hiring the certain people that need to be done to hit their quota. Because a lot of managers are late, yeah, because and they're gonna fear that this person's gonna take their job, and there's some people like me that will come in bold, like, I'm gonna take your job, and I'll tell you. So they fire me before I even step in the building. So, and like I said, I ring the alarm. I tell you, I ring the alarm everywhere I go, and you should ring the alarm when unjustice happening, when people ain't right, when people lazy, when people ain't working hard for you.

SPEAKER_00 58:53

Get them out of there, you are not supposed to let your right hand know what your left hand is doing. Man, I'll let my right hand and my left hand know what I'm gonna do with and then do it, and then show everybody. Well, you just said it got you fired.

SPEAKER_07 59:06

You just said it got you fired. I've been fired for two or three jobs, right? I can be fired, but I've been fired for ringing the alarm for busting to be like, what's this dude doing to be so successful? You know, and then not letting unjust happen, not letting somebody hate on me, not letting somebody I'm with you. I'm with you on that. I'm gonna stand up for it. I'll lose a job every single day. I don't care about that because guess what? I'm willing to go sell fruit, you know.

SPEAKER_00 59:35

I mean, I'm willing to go sell fruit and make fruit cups, but you but you have that mentality. Some uh people don't have that, they don't have that drive. If you so there you if you want to be successful, you can't tell these people to get it when they don't have it within your heart. If you want the money, if you want the if you don't have that within your heart, if you don't have hard work, dedication, if you can't even motivate your damn self, you gotta you gotta learn, you gotta start. Listen, let me tell you something.

SPEAKER_07 1:00:03

I struggle too. These folks ain't doing this. I struggle too. I struggle to sometimes you'll be down on myself, and sometimes I be down, but then guess what I do? I listen to somebody who's up, and guess what it does? It brings me right up, it makes me say, Yes, that's you, yes, I am Superman. Yes, I can. Yes, I can. Yes, yes, I can him. Yes, I am that okay. What's your kryptonite? Yes, I am that guy. Yes, I can make it happen. Yes, there's nothing that can stop me. Can I go out and make ten thousand dollars this week? Of course I can. Now, guess what? I might I might fall a little short, but hey, is $7,500 good in a week? Is fifty five hundred dollars a good in a week? It's more than the average person, but I'm reaching.

SPEAKER_00 1:00:48

But a lot exactly, and a lot of people don't have that mindset, they want it, they want it, they won't, they don't even know how to do it.

SPEAKER_07 1:00:58

Listen to me, come listen to truth ain't in us, and we'll take you there. Call us, ask us what your problem is, and we'll tell you I'll tell you from a man's standpoint, Tanya will tell you from a woman's standpoint, and we'll turn the world up. Listen to us, come to us.

SPEAKER_00 1:01:14

That's all.

SPEAKER_07 1:01:16

I will definitely say we both are successful when it comes to sure, and they even sales, but we're successful in life, we're successful in our families, we're successful in our careers, we take care of our children, we love God, we get after it, you know. I mean, that's why, that's why, that's why it is we do the right, we do the right things when nobody's watching, and that's what everybody else needs to start doing. That's character, not don't be a character, and a lot of these people don't have character, character, but build character, you know what I'm saying? Absolutely, don't be a character, absolutely, and watch what happened to your lifestyle. Yes, you probably ain't got nothing today, yes, you ain't got nothing this week. But I tell you what, by May, watch what you have. If you buckle down and you buckle your bootstraps and you really go get out, get off the internet for a minute and go out there and make it happen, Captain, and you and they don't realize, they don't realize too.

SPEAKER_00 1:02:15

I think that self-perverance is very important. You gotta believe in yourself to first of all. If you don't believe in yourself, how do you expect me to believe in you? How do you expect me to believe in you and you don't even believe in God made you you? Why do you think God made you you? Okay, I tell people that, and that's why I go back to the young lady on the team. And I you know, I had to fire some people too, because again, sometimes you can fire, but guess what? You can always do you can always rehire. What that's the beautiful thing. Oh, if I fired them, uh I know if I fired them, it was for a reason, they have no self-motivation. Came the biggest thing in being a manager, one of my pet peefs, is dealing with grown ass people who are kids who are children. They're like kids. Hey, listen, let me tell you they're like kids, they got problems, they got an excuse why they can't work, they got an excuse why they ain't making no money, they got an excuse uh for every damn thing going on in their lives, except except why aren't you closing deals? Listen, can I why aren't you building relationships? Can I piss a lot of people off? Piss them off because damn it, if I'm making $20,000, $30,000 a month and you saying you want to make it work, put in the work, and you know what we did was so damn easy.

SPEAKER_07 1:03:45

I don't know if you gotta get out there again, but you said something that that that that that triggered me. You you you you you says people are like grown folks are like children. And and let me and let me say this, and I'm not gonna say this about every teacher, but teachers, the people that are leading our generation, I would say 45 and under, they're they're they're glorified students, and let me tell you why they're glorified students, because they act like children, and let me tell you why they act like a child psychologically, because they're waiting on three o'clock bell like a kid, they're waiting on spring break like a kid, they're waiting on summer break, like oh summer, like a kid. You see what I'm saying? They're they're they're dealing with kids all single day, so just like the cops need to get psychological evaluations every Friday. The teachers need to get psychological evaluations every Friday. Do we need to pay our teachers more? Of course, absolutely, of course, but if you're gonna, but also you can't take that same energy you had in high school hating on people back into the school when you come back. You hating on that kid because he's walking into school with new Jordans every Friday, the same way you was hating on them 20 years ago when you was in school, you hating on that pretty girl that's the the the head of the cheerleading squad, and you're a fucking teacher, you're a coach, you're a principal, you're a counselor, and then because guess what? Open up the put a window in every in every counselor's window.

SPEAKER_00 1:05:27

I go into a counselor's house, uh office, and I have no problem with it. You're so passionate about this. I have to I gotta ask you, are you having problems with the teachers?

SPEAKER_07 1:05:37

My kids are 19 and 18. I admit I lived it through, but y'all are going through it. Okay, a lot of other people are going through it, oh and they're dealing with it now with their kids. You see what I'm saying? Yes, dealing with a teacher that's hating on their kids. Now be a teacher, yes, be a be a be a you know, don't worry about what a parent looks like or what a parent got going on. The parent is the one that that birthed this kid, but y'all got them just as much as the parent. So we need to put more on these teachers and educators and counselors and principals because they're the one leading the next generation. They got fake pages and shit like that. Well, trying to follow us.

SPEAKER_00 1:06:18

I feel like I feel like a lot of them, because they're underpaid, they don't care as much.

SPEAKER_07 1:06:26

Well, get them out of there and get the ones who care out. So because you're dealing with the youth, you're dealing with our kids, you're dealing with uh uh dealing with the new generation. Get them out of there. If you got any back and they're very dealing with our babies, I will say get them out of there. Any bad any bad situation, get them out of there because you're dealing with our babies, you're dealing with uh the next generation, regardless about his daddy, because that kid probably ain't got no daddy, that kid probably ain't got it, mama. So he's coming to you. You need to just teach him, yeah.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:01

But that's not the teacher's responsibility to be these kids' parents nowadays.

SPEAKER_07 1:07:06

Man, you got them 10 hours a day, you got them longer than the armed parents.

SPEAKER_00 1:07:09

Okay, you gotta be and then they gotta regardless, they gotta they gotta deal with these parents. The parents want to come there and fight and do all this extra stuff. It's a lot they have to deal with, they don't happen a lot. Ask about the PTA meeting. Uh, there are a lot of things that don't even make the news that we don't even know about the teacher started it and it's in the parent life, and guess what? Now you've lost me. Now you've lost me. The teacher, listen, listen, you're dealing with some badass kids, suspend them. Okay, and I'm not saying all the kids are bad at the end of the day, but you do in any race, we have good and bad, right? We got good and bad teachers, too. Exactly, exactly. That's why we see some of them going to jail for having sex with uh this their stuff.

SPEAKER_07 1:08:01

Psychologically, or whatever they're terrible.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:03

So, this is some of the mindsets that we got teaching our new generation. We got bad apples in every everywhere, yeah.

SPEAKER_07 1:08:11

Every single get rid of a lot of people are defending the bad apples, they defending them.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:16

Who's defending that? Who's defending that?

SPEAKER_07 1:08:18

Let me get into it. I'll tell you about three, four stories. We ain't gonna get into that.

SPEAKER_00 1:08:22

No, we're not getting into your long stories tonight. Not right now, because we got to get ready to go. So I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm just telling you about it. Oh my god. Well, guys, it is time for us to sign off. But before we go, I'm getting ready to pull up my truth bomb so we could talk about it. I just love that, don't you, Don D? I think, are you on your phone?

SPEAKER_05 1:09:00

I was on my phone, sorry.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:03

You just like the kids. You're talking about the people on social you are you on air and you are on your own.

SPEAKER_07 1:09:11

What you're gonna be a bad teacher sitting in prison? Tell the police only uh we get in trouble for having for having for having a uh attention span of a i'm just saying like that's what's happening.

SPEAKER_00 1:09:23

You can't even put your phone down. You want the kids to put their phone down, but you can't put your phone down.

SPEAKER_07 1:09:28

I'm not gonna sit in the water school's office right now, right?

SPEAKER_00 1:09:31

I'm just saying I can't we gotta practice what we preach. That's all I'm saying. Practice what we preach. So it's truth mom time. So I'm gonna ask a few questions and we're gonna then sign off. Would you rather make 80k stable or chase one million online with no guarantee? If you can make a hundred thousand dollars versus chasing one million dollars on the internet, what you gonna do? And I want you guys to answer in the comments are you going after the million that's not guaranteed, or are you gonna take a hundred thousand dollars a year?

SPEAKER_08 1:10:15

I'm going after both.

SPEAKER_00 1:10:17

That's not the question, it's either or. Um, I don't want to.

SPEAKER_07 1:10:22

I know you're going after both, but I'm just saying thousand dollars a year. I don't want it. So you're gonna chase the one million not on the internet, but I'm gonna chase the internet with my boots on the ground, like I'm supposed to. Okay, I'm just I'm just saying that's like I'm gonna without with my boots on the ground, yeah. For sure.

SPEAKER_00 1:10:43

Okay, so you may be you're gonna be starving for a while.

SPEAKER_07 1:10:45

If it's if you got if you sit and tell me what if you got little kids, so you got little kids and you just gonna starve. No, no, no, no. Check this out. This is what I'm gonna do. This is what I'm gonna do. This is what I'm gonna do. So you said 80,000. And that's I come to work every day. You tell me when I come to go, you tell me, you tell me where to go, you tell me when I can come, you tell me if I can go to my son PTA meeting, you tell me if I can go on Saturday morning to my son. Oh my god, why can't you keep it simple, sir? Um, but for a million, I'm chasing, I'm chasing it for my dream. No guarantee chasing a million, I might just fall short of the million. If you reach for the moon, you land somewhere in the stars. So I might just get 65, 60 or 500,000.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:32

I like, I like you might just make nothing, and you may make nothing. I might I might die, so I might make nothing anyway. So okay. Next, next question is being an influencer a real career or a temporary change?

SPEAKER_07 1:11:47

Man, Casa Nat making nine million dollars a month. Speed making okay, of course it is.

SPEAKER_00 1:11:54

You better get a twitch or something or do something. There are 200 plus influencers today on the internet. 200 200 million million plus plus, you gotta work hard at it.

SPEAKER_07 1:12:10

You gotta start doing some push-ups, you gotta start going to the gym, you gonna start thinking nothing but social media and goddamn world and twitch. You gotta get on everything, you gotta make you gotta do a tiny time, comment on everything, subscribe, motivate.

SPEAKER_00 1:12:25

And you and and guess, and guess what, guys? He won't even do it. I'm saying it no, you talk all yet, you not even putting it. Okay, okay, but you don't even want to get to where he is a proven my point tonight. Damn it, you've proven my point. Okay, let's keep it going. Okay, and are we raising kids to work or to be seen?

SPEAKER_07 1:12:51

I'm raising mine to work, get out there because when you work, you're gonna beat everybody out. You know what I mean? If you lie to 10 people and you work, there's only gonna be one person in that line and probably gonna work as hard as you. The other eight, you're gonna be straight up, okay.

SPEAKER_00 1:13:05

So, what's worse? A job you hate or a dream that ain't paying you, a job you hate. I I agree with that. A job you hate, I agree with you.

SPEAKER_07 1:13:15

A dream that ain't paying you, keep going, keep waking up, keep getting out there, keep goddamn fighting, keep doing everything you're supposed to do, keep grind your goals out, keep showing up every day, outdo whatever it takes to fight for your dreams because that at the end of the day, that's gonna make you happy, that's gonna make you live the way you want to live. But living somebody else's dream is not the way.

SPEAKER_00 1:13:38
