Dan Martell - I gave my brother all my money

00:00:00.000 My brother calls me up and he goes, you can't come home.

00:00:02.140 The police are waiting.

00:00:03.100 He tells me where to meet him.

00:00:04.320 And he pulls out all the money he had, emptied his pockets, $63.50.

00:00:10.260 And he says, it's not much, but you got to get out of town.

00:00:12.740 He never knew for years how much it meant to me.

00:00:15.200 And then you fast forward.

00:00:16.480 I'm two years into my first successful company, close to being a millionaire.

00:00:20.220 And my brother calls me up and decides to quit his job.

00:00:23.400 He worked at this place for six years.

00:00:24.880 He was a mechanic.

00:00:25.560 He wanted to buy the shop.

00:00:26.600 The guy lied to him.

00:00:27.600 And I go to his house.

00:00:28.580 He goes, I think I want to be a home builder.

00:00:31.020 I said, I got you.

00:00:32.080 And I wrote him a check for everything I had in my savings account, $173,000.

00:00:36.240 And I said, bro, I don't care if you ever pay me this back.

00:00:39.520 Just always make the right decision and I'll never be upset.

00:00:42.640 That is incredible.

00:00:44.020 We ended up doing personal development together.

00:00:46.360 We were reading books.

00:00:47.640 We were going to seminars.

00:00:49.180 Looking back and just talking to so many people that didn't have that kind of relationship with their brother.

00:00:53.320 It's one of the things I'll always cherish.
