SPEAKER_00 37:38

It's a process.

SPEAKER_02 37:39

It's a process, yeah, but the people who are Hispanic is and the system American system, and they say no, this is a session is not.

SPEAKER_00 37:52

But as you said, it's difficult, it's a process, but it would be a gentleman or don't. And what I think is one who does is that the people involve their dinner. So you get this to invent their dinner, because it's one of the compras that you have in such a life. And second, you have 30 years paying a casa. So one does have a good inversion.

SPEAKER_02 38:44

And not only does a big inversion, that you can, and in the future, you can compare more cases, or the Latina, if you want to compare and invest, or there are people who have 20, 30, 40 years and say, I can return, I can see you like the casa. And the cases vendor 800, 900,000.

SPEAKER_00 39:15

I have clients of Isampt who have been 20, 30, and all these are bastard, 1.2 million, 1.3 million.

Entonces, pues la idea es también vender, digamos, usted quiere invertir in lugares who are touristic. And auristic para que usted lo vaya a alquiler por Airbnb. Sí, sí, claro. Entonces, this is como uh tourism reality. Yeah, pues bacana.

SPEAKER_02 40:52

For my gente latina who can compare, invertible, or vendor, I tire the flecha, parcero que I conceived at much time. What is it? The empresa. No, parce bacano, and you're a person who you admire, and for me in this negotiation and parse, sincerely recommend, because you know that you have a year doing this, and for what you watch, they are very good at the people.

SPEAKER_00 41:22

No, the historians that have made of rent of proprietors and all this, there are gentlemen who are. And not only, who are cases in a year, and the cases 1 million, 2 million dollars. There are stories of success, okay, and various that have empresas grandes.

SPEAKER_02 41:58

There are people who have empresas, and for example, construction, and so they compromised and what you have to ask in Colombia or in another place, Mexico, Ecuador, who might be a law? What consequence they do for empezar the process American, because it's a golpe?

No, ese frío ya. Y este último invierno fue brutal. Mucha nieve, Mario. Fue brutal, no, el frío y la nieve y todo. El encerrado. Sí. Entonces yo dije, no, sinceramente, sinceramente, sí. Ya me quiero ir. Ya me quiero ir al calor.

SPEAKER_01 45:38

Sí, claro, Maricay, no.

SPEAKER_00 45:40

No, y no hay nada más bacano que uno estar en la playa. Sí, parchado. Tranquilo, sí me entiendes. Pero yo creo que yo eventualmente sí me voy a ir a Colombia, pero yo me quiero ir a Cartagena. A Cartagena, la chica. Sí, yo compré unos lotes allá. Sí.

SPEAKER_02 46:01

Chimba, bro, real.

SPEAKER_00 46:02

This is a project grande that se va a hacer, pues obviamente le muestro y les muestro a la gente if you can. It's a project of cases of playa. Bacana, weon. Sí, because it's always from the mar and so. For example, the casa, you had one in Hampton Base, and this and remodeled and it vendors. But this is a quadruple of the player. So I was, and now when I'm in Isco, I'm certain. No, literally. You vote, I'm gonna in the center, relajar uno. But I mean almost. Me parece muy bueno uno vivir cerca del mar.

SPEAKER_02 47:25

Well, antes de terminar, I have unas carticas, we're gonna connect more. Quiero que escoja una, weón. A ver. Santi, dime, esa, pásmela. No, la leo. Eso está bueno. Que más me inspira y me motiva. Pues no tiene que ser hoy en día, digamos, en el pasado.

SPEAKER_00 47:59

Pues no, en realidad yo digo que mi papá. Sí, porque mi papá, como les conté, él tenía sus fincas, sus empresas in Colombia.

SPEAKER_02 48:12

Y para venir acá y empezar de cero.

SPEAKER_00 48:14

Y en realidad, sí, nos tocó empezar de cero, basicamente. Y hacer todo el cambio, andó duro para que uno saliera adelante. And then ve los frutos, because three of my friends graduated from the university. My hair. Claro, claro. Y ellos se ven acá o se ven en Colombia, si se quieren ir. Ellos se quieren ir, pero es que los nietos. Los jalan mucho. Sí, y fuera de eso que mi hermano tiene tres más que están chiquitos, ¿no? Entonces ellos, pues, siempre que los nietos, que los nietos, entonces no se quieren ir todavía. Sí. Pero ellos van mucho a Armenia, tienen su apartamento. Armenia es muy bonito. Me encanta. Yo sí voy más a Pereira, cuando voy más a Pereira.

SPEAKER_01 49:29

Y claro, estamos aparchados, hace dos años estamos ahí.

SPEAKER_00 49:34

Sí, claro, los parches por ahí de vez en cuando. Sí, y Pereira, pues hay más movimiento. Armenia es más tranquilo, ¿no? Sí. Pero Perez sí, sí, claro. Entonces, no, yo lo que pues pienso ando es invertir algo in cerritos. En Cerritos, claro, Cerritos is a little bit. I think what you can do, where I invent, but for now it's an idea normal.

SPEAKER_02 50:09

No, but I want to agree. I want to agree for a motivation for me, a person that I admire, and I comment, for the people who can invest, compared, or vendor, and thank you for starting here in Arepa Meets Bego, bro.

SPEAKER_00 50:33

It's good because I'm in reality.

SPEAKER_02 50:42

And when I go to Colombia, literally, for six or six years, I'm a chucho that's a little bit of a arepawn.

SPEAKER_00 50:49

No, but restaurant. El gaucho.

SPEAKER_02 50:56

El gaucho, ¿dónde?

SPEAKER_00 50:57

Ahí in Pereira. Sí, pero ¿dónde?

SPEAKER_01 51:06

No, no, y es mejor.

SPEAKER_00 51:09

But it's a carne and the arepa that ellos.

SPEAKER_02 51:22

Ah, bueno, fan. No, entonces ahí, como le digo, muchas gracias. Capitolo 3. Arepa Miss Vegas, bro. Thank you, bro. Thank you, bro.
