Anton and I dive deep into the Red Pill, streaming, making money, and what it takes to be successful as a millennial streaming streamer. We discuss how to deal with the pressures of being a millennial streamer, how to stay on top of your game, and how to balance family and work life.
00:18:37.000But no, guys, all jokes aside, you know, we're chopping up Anton about a bunch of different things behind the scenes.
00:18:42.000And, you know, we're actually, you know, we'll rehash some of it because I do think some of the information we're just discussing is valuable.
00:18:46.000Well, you know, every now and then you get a guest that comes in, which is automatic chemistry.
00:18:50.000You can sit there and talk for hours and there's really no, it is what it just flows.
00:18:54.000And I think one thing we could kick off on, and guys, we're going to be covering a multitude of different topics.
00:18:58.000Red pill, streaming, streaming, making money, becoming making money, becoming successful, et cetera, as you guys know, because Anton came from the corporate field.
00:19:05.000So, you know, it's an opportunity to, you know, get a lot of his insight.
00:19:09.000But the first thing I was going to start with, we know one of the most popular professions that young men want to get into is streaming, getting on the internet.
00:19:17.000And I do think it's important that we need to do our due diligence, kind of let warn guys that getting into this world is great and all, but don't believe everything that you see.
00:19:33.000We see the monopoly clippers, the monopoly on clippers.
00:19:37.000There's like, there's so many things behind the scenes when it comes to this whole streaming thing that I don't want young men to like say, I'm going to do this and not go in at least with their eyes wide open and have like or quit their day job and put themselves in a bad spot trying to chase some type of clout.
00:19:51.000Because I think the barrier to entry when it comes to social media has gone up.
00:19:59.000The thing about it is that the way I got into it was I was going to use social media in order to bring more visibility so that I can make more money in corporate.
00:20:09.000So I just kind of like stumbled into it, but I knew that in order for people to really be able to buy into me, they had to get some, get to know me.
00:20:16.000They had to get the behind the scenes.
00:20:18.000But, you know, I kind of got lucky because we caught a wave during the pandemic.
00:20:46.000They had to go back and get regular jobs.
00:20:48.000Whereas it's funny because I never stopped and I've grown at least 25% year over year over year.
00:20:54.000And it's just because I've been able to get better at what I do because, and y'all got to really understand this.
00:21:01.000Anything that you wind up doing, and I don't care what it is, you're going to have to dedicate your life to it.
00:21:08.000And I think that that's the part of red pill that people don't really take into consideration simply because you can't focus on women while at the same time focusing on what it is that you're great at or what you're trying to build.
00:21:22.000I mean, you got to understand that no matter what it is, and we all in kind of different spaces, I've been married for a while, but at the same time, my focus has never been, to be honest, it has never been my wife.
00:22:15.000It's cool to turn the camera on and talk shit, but like, if you're not getting paid, my friend, it's going to be tough to maintain that for a long period of time.
00:22:20.000Also, keep in mind, other creators want your spot.
00:22:44.000If they're able to, listen, it's a lot of the people that's in the game right now.
00:22:48.000And this is always the way that has been.
00:22:50.000It's a lot of the people that's in the game right now that if they could talk about you and get clout, they would.
00:22:57.000But because you're a cool person, if you give them an opportunity to collab, that same person that will talk about you will collab with you just so they can get the clout.
00:23:09.000Clout in this game is more important than actual money.
00:23:19.000A lot of people is pretending like they really got it.
00:23:21.000People are acting like they don't have a real job.
00:23:24.000Ain't nothing wrong with getting a real job, but as long as you're working on your business and you're working on what it is that you in order to be great as a content creator, really, you're going to have to put in 14 to 16 hours a day, seven days a week.
00:24:01.000And I do want to, and the reason why we're kind of kicking off with this is because I know we got a lot of young guys that are watching us or people that want to get into this thing.
00:24:07.000And I think it's very important that we at least fill you guys in so you go in with your eyes wide open.
00:24:11.000And I'll say if someone does want to get into this type of profession, get a job first, get a skill, get real consistent income.
00:24:17.000And then you can take that and funnel that income into your endeavor with the content creation.
00:24:21.000So if it works out, you make side money.
00:24:23.000If it doesn't, you at least have a job.
00:24:26.000And I warn people all the time: this in-between period of two to five years where you're working your regular job and doing this is going to be some of the most miserable that you're going to have in your lifetime because you're going to be doing both sides.
00:24:39.000And that's really what's going to transition you because the job is what gives you the money to invest into the endeavor while the endeavor is still in the red.
00:25:04.000You're competing with cable TV damn near on YouTube.
00:25:07.000The streaming is just as competitive as the music industry today.
00:25:12.000And if you're getting into streaming, it's almost like you're an independent, like you're an independent artist and you're competing.
00:25:18.000Like you're thinking about all of these guys as bottom.
00:25:20.000You think about all these IRL streamers and stuff like that.
00:25:25.000They are paying people and clippers to push them so that when you discover them, it makes it seem like they're more relevant than they really are.
00:28:06.000What ends up happening is that 10,000 of the people that are watching, it's slowly going to the 1,000 that are watching, they're going to continue to grow and be a higher percentage of that 10K because you start somewhere.
00:28:24.000And then now you actually got 2,000 people watching real.
00:28:27.000And you've basically been able to artificially grow your audience without anybody knowing.
00:28:31.000And then it's almost like a snowball where you fake it for long enough, people have this perception, and then they come and collab with you, and then you actually do build a real audience.
00:28:37.000And we've seen a lot of people do this.
00:28:39.000But the reason why I tell y'all this is like, I just want you guys to know that this is what people are doing behind the scenes.
00:28:45.000And this is what you're competing against.
00:28:47.000Like maybe five years ago, this was like unheard of doing this type of shit.
00:29:25.000It used to be I want to be an astronaut.
00:29:26.000Now everyone says I want to be an influencer.
00:29:29.000Growing up, and I know you're a little bit older than me, but like growing up, used to be I want to be a doctor, I want to be an engineer, I want to be an astronaut, astronaut.
00:29:35.000Bro, now, for like the past five years straight, ask young people, what do you want to be?
00:29:38.000All of them say, I want to be an influencer.
00:29:56.000That if you own these platforms and you know, you're not a real movie star, you're not a real, everybody wants to get in the game and be like us.
00:30:04.000Whereas they were talking about that we weren't really relevant and that we didn't really have any pull, you know, listen before they got into the game.
00:30:11.000Listen, I just want to add to this real quick.
00:31:25.000And what people don't realize is like this election was really also like a social test to see who garners more influence in modern America.
00:31:34.000Now, 20 years ago, having these establishment celebs would pretty much be a big fucking deal.
00:31:40.000Eminem or whatever, whatever, like it is.
00:31:42.000But now, Trump not only won the election, but he won it in a fucking landslide.
00:31:47.000Because while Kamala Harris was over here, you know, doing endorsements and having Claymond show like that performer speak on her behalf, Donald Trump was doing Joe Rogan.
00:31:56.000Well, Donald Trump was with Aina Ross on stream.
00:31:58.000The interesting part about that, though, also the nuance in that was the reason why Donald Trump was able to go on those platforms, in my opinion, is because he was authentic, regardless of whether you agreed with him or not.
00:32:10.000Because when you go on the stream, see, even when she started to try to do it, when she went on Shannon Sharp's program, she went on.
00:32:17.000I didn't even know she went on Shannon Sharp's shit.
00:32:34.000And so the streaming actually exposed her for not being as good as she really was.
00:32:40.000Or they couldn't ask certain questions.
00:32:42.000And you can tell that they were nerfed.
00:32:44.000Whereas when Trump sat on Joe Rogan's podcast and they just talked for like three hours and talked for three hours, he even pushed back.
00:32:51.000I think he had like a thing that he had to push back in Michigan where he was flying to Michigan.
00:32:56.000You are able to really grasp who he is to get a better understanding of whether he was authentic and what he really believed.
00:33:01.000So the streaming actually exposes whether or not politicians are who they are, which makes them fearful of even getting involved with playing along with streamers in the first place.
00:33:12.000But in order for you to be successful, a lot of people, no matter what it is that you do, whether you're a politician or whether you're trying to promote a product, you see all of the rappers trying to link with streamers now and all of this stuff in order to do their rollout and their album release.
00:33:25.000The record companies are literally integrated with the streamers now and stuff like that.
00:33:29.000It's legitimately like a strategy now, which is crazy in the music industry.
00:34:20.000The generation that's younger, that are smarter than us, that are using AI, that's the future.
00:34:24.000You know, you talk a lot about your social, your social proof, you know, who you are online and whether or not you have made significant strides in trying to improve your social status online and what your perspective is and what your social profile is.
00:34:39.000I will tell people, and I've been saying this for over 10 years now, who you are online is going to be more important than who you are in real life.
00:34:56.000You're going to have to make sure that your pictures is lit, that you're going to, that, that who it is that you perceive yourself to be, you're going to, you're going to have to really be and live the life, but at the same time, you're going to have to clean up what it is that you're putting out there, right?
00:35:08.000And understand that whatever it is that you do, it's going to live forever.
00:35:13.000You know, for me, my whole brand was, I'm going to show you the journey of how I've evolved from this spot to this spot, even from being liberal, right?
00:35:22.000I remember growing up in a black community, we're all expected to vote a certain way.
00:35:28.000You almost got to, it's so hard to pull yourself off the Democratic plantation.
00:35:32.000And I got to ask you about that because I definitely want to get your like your red pill journey of all what made you go more conservative.
00:35:39.000If you grow up colored in this country, or an immigrant, blue.
00:35:42.000You're auto-voting Democrat no matter what.
00:35:44.000The people that hate me the most are the people that look like me that don't agree with the fact that I'm conservative.
00:35:51.000In a lot of instances, to be honest with you, a lot of black people actually used to, you know, but they used to really live more conservative lives, Even if they voted blue.
00:36:01.000They believe they used to believe in certain things.
00:36:05.000Like, for example, even if you talk about immigration, as much as I don't agree with a lot of the people that's here, when it comes to their liberal views, it shouldn't even be a debate and it shouldn't even be division with the fact that if you are not, if you came over here illegally, then you really need to be held accountable for that.
00:36:23.000Yeah, but that's something that they've made an issue to divide people when in reality, black people have always been more conservative with how it is that they supposed to gatekeep or how it is that they've always gatekeeped, but then they always vote against their own best interests.
00:36:38.000The difference, all right, so let me say this: the difference between Democrats and Republicans should be very simple.
00:36:45.000Democrats want you to depend on them and they want to be able to manage how it is that you do things.
00:36:51.000They want you to give them, or they want to give you your objective of how you're supposed to live your life.
00:38:10.000She fucked up because she said she could only do like an hour and she needed to know the questions.
00:38:14.000And he's not going to be able to do that.
00:38:15.000Well, the reason that they said that they could only do an hour is because she didn't want to.
00:38:18.000Kamala Harris got this thing where she just put a lot of word salad in and she talks very long and she's long-winded so that she can prevent you from being able to deep dive further into questions.
00:39:09.000But to an average normie, a lot of people might consider him that.
00:39:12.000And there isn't infrastructure in conservative media to prop people up that the left doesn't have.
00:39:19.000They don't have a Joe Rogan equivalent basically.
00:39:20.000Well, one of the things that they messed up with, in my opinion, was when they brought out Obama and then they brought out Michelle Obama and then Michelle Obama told men or that she told women that they should go against their husbands and voting the opposite way of their husbands if it wasn't voting for Democrats.
00:39:40.000So what she did was she came on and Obama did it too.
00:39:44.000He got mad at black men and tried to say that it was because they were misogynistic as to why it was that they weren't voting for Kamala Harris because they seen the shift in men and younger people actually shifting over into Trump, right?
00:40:05.000They Kamala Harris said, hey, black men, what is it that y'all want in order for y'all to join black women, 92% of black women, in order to vote for Kamala Harris?
00:40:14.000They said, well, we'll legalize, this is the Kamala Harris, we'll legalize on a federal level being able to smoke marijuana.
00:40:24.000Guys, overwhelmingly, this is what they said, though.
00:40:27.000They said, no, we want changes to family court law.
00:41:55.000But also, they don't lose their job, sponsors maybe, or be seen as a bad person to their peers.
00:42:00.000Because remember, if I'm in corporate, as you know, and I'm not liberal to an extent, and I'm more like the alpha type guy, they're like, oh, this guy is not cool.
00:42:27.000Being aware, if a woman says something or if she feels uncomfortable, then you have a responsibility to make sure that she feels good and go and report it.
00:42:35.000You're going to take all of those trainings, right?
00:42:37.000But then when the guys come back together, because I hate to say it and I hate to be honest with y'all, we really don't want women in corporate because they're messing up the game.
00:42:49.000When the guys step back and then we get out of the corporate settings and environments, I just linked back up with the guy that recruited me to come to Flagstar Bank when I worked at Flagstar Bank for the last few years or whatever.
00:43:01.000And I retired from there again in 2000.
00:43:02.000Well, I retired from banking again, but I retired specifically from Flagstar Bank because they got sold or we merged with New York Community Bank, right?
00:43:10.000And I ran into one of my old managers and we ran into each other at a casino and we were talking and who he is and who these people are when they leave corporate America.
00:43:21.000They're straight up alpha men that play the game, but they don't agree with what it is that they got to deal with in corporate America when it comes to women infiltrating men's spaces.
00:43:34.000And leadership traditionally was a men's space.
00:43:36.000Now, that doesn't mean that there aren't women that can't do some of the things that men do if they're willing to make the sacrifices that men make, right?
00:43:45.000Because we dedicate our lives to this.
00:43:49.000Women, they have children, they take maternity leave, they do all of this stuff.
00:43:52.000But in an ideal setting, if you talk to most men in corporate America, they will tell you that they don't agree with most of the liberal policies, most of the equal pay for equal work feminism, even the way that women tend to negotiate their pay packages is they're idiots when they negotiate their pay packages the way that they do it.
00:44:11.000And that's why women make less than men in corporate America is because they're not willing to walk away.
00:44:17.000They don't have absolutely, they're horrible negotiators.
00:44:21.000And so we've not, we took a turn and we overcorrected in making sure that we did diversity, equity, and inclusion to include women in men's spaces.
00:44:31.000That's why you've seen stuff like black women code or stuff like that, right?
00:44:36.000It's because they had to push something that wasn't naturally for them.
00:44:40.000Now, women don't select these particular fields of study and curriculums, whereas men naturally or tend to go into it.
00:44:48.000So I got to ask this question because we're in a unique position where we're in front of someone that actually has been in this world extensively, right?
00:44:56.000Because obviously there's what people think, there's what studies show, then There's people that actually come from that industry that could tell you real talk.
00:45:30.000And we've, it's almost like a marketing tool.
00:45:35.000It was never meant for actually improving the prospects or the bottom line of the company or anything like that.
00:45:41.000It was used as a marketing tool in order to make people feel as though the company was listening to the needs of what was happening in the culture or what was happening in social and social life, right?
00:45:52.000So the more that women became a part of, like, like I'll give you an example.
00:46:22.000What we found out when Trump got in office is that a lot of them really just had a lot of student loans and they had underwater basket weaving degrees, right?
00:46:39.000And so what they would do is they would get government jobs.
00:46:43.000That's why the jobs data was really so messed up and the government was overbloated because what you found was that a lot of women went into the public sector and what they would do is they would try to work for 10 years in those sectors so that they can get their loans forgiven and they would go on an income-based repayment plan.
00:46:59.000Okay, I got to add more credence to that.
00:47:00.000There's something called public service loan forgiveness, guys.
00:47:03.000This is very important to add context for what you're saying so people don't sit there and try to say, oh, he cat, this is 100% true.
00:47:09.000You make 120 qualifying payments over 10 years.
00:47:12.000Based off of your income, not even based off of the amount that you would actually specifically supposed to pay for 10 years.
00:47:18.000Because see, most student loan repayment plans are 10 years, right?
00:47:24.000And so whatever it is that your student loan is and whatever interest rate that you have, whether it's a private student loan or whatever, it's a 10-year payment, right?
00:47:32.000So the government says, or whatever the public sector says is, well, if you make payments for 10 years, whatever it is that you owe, we'll forgive.
00:47:39.000You're not going to get the state or the federal government.
00:47:41.000But the women didn't care about how much they took out in student loans because what would happen is they would go on an income-based repayment plan.
00:47:48.000So it was based off of how much you made.
00:47:51.000So they were still able to pretend like, hey, we're buying homes.
00:47:58.000The reality was that they were pretending and they were on income-based repayment plans.
00:48:02.000Then you came, Biden comes in and he says, well, listen, guys, you vote for me.
00:48:06.000I'm going to make sure that I forgive your student loans.
00:48:10.000So they incentivize you in the same way that they tied you back to the federal government to give you food stamps, to give you welfare, to not, you know, build strong families.
00:48:19.000They keep you dependent on the liberal side or the Democrat plantation in order for you to vote a certain way.
00:48:25.000When in reality, all of these women, the same way that they try to say that men were faking, they were faking it.
00:48:34.000They were doing things, but then they were getting the jobs that men weren't seeking because they were going into the public sector, which traditionally makes less money than the private sector.
00:48:43.000They couldn't compete in the private sector.
00:48:44.000Once they infiltrated the public sector, what they started to do was then say, listen, equal rights, equal pay, diversity, equity, and inclusion.
00:48:53.000We need y'all to substantiate how it is that we need to move in these other spaces.
00:49:05.000But we had a reset once Trump got into office because he said, listen, now we're going back to merit-based.
00:49:11.000You got to be good enough and compete.
00:49:13.000No matter who you are, whether you're woman, man, black, white, whatever it is, you got to be good enough to compete.
00:49:18.000We're not just bringing you in based off of the fact that we need enough black women or we need enough women, whatever.
00:49:24.000And white women was really good at this, right?
00:49:27.000Because white women partnered with all other women, black women, whatever, Indian women, whatever, in order to designate themselves as a minority.
00:49:58.000They were so stupid that they felt as though partnering with women to designate themselves as another class would actually help them when in reality, all it did was exacerbate the fact that they were breaking up their families and dividing themselves against the very men that they should have been marrying.
00:50:16.000And so now they got left holding a bag because that's why they say over 300,000 black women since the beginning of the year have been laid off and they can't find another job because they can't compete in the marketplace.
00:50:27.000So, okay, this is fascinating because I never thought about this from the angle of student loan repayment, getting into the public sector.
00:50:33.000So they infiltrated the, and this makes sense because, bro, there's a lot of women in government.
00:50:47.000I mean, you don't, you never needed this many.
00:50:50.000We were never supposed to be this bloated as a government.
00:50:52.000We're basically giving out handouts and we're subsidizing the general population and acting like women are more successful than men.
00:51:02.000But that's why you see them not being able to compete once you got to get into it merit-based instead of getting based off of diversity equity.
00:51:22.000But what they did was they took the blueprint that we use in the public sector and they tried to make it applicable in the private sector, right?
00:51:30.000In the corporate world, where you had to actually, but what you're actually seeing is a lot of these women getting laid off.
00:51:35.000Now, women are not looking to get promoted.
00:52:36.000You would be great because it's about whether or not you likable.
00:52:39.000It's whether or not you're a cultural fit.
00:52:41.000It's whether or not they actually want to do business with you, if they want to be around you.
00:52:45.000It's not about whether or not you are so great or doing this.
00:52:49.000And some of y'all ask yourself the question, why am I not able to get promoted?
00:52:52.000How come I'm not, I'm better than her?
00:52:54.000Well, actually, you're not because she is better at sales.
00:52:58.000She is better at making herself likable and she fits the corporate mold.
00:53:02.000So to answer your question about how feminism affected it, it was popular to promote women in corporate America, which is one of the reasons why they infiltrated it so high when it came to the higher technology.
00:53:18.000Because I've always said that I think the Obama era is what ushered in this fucking stupid woke ideology that we're trying to get rid of now.
00:53:30.000Like the whole, you know, LGBT stuff, the, you know, the mass acceptance of degeneracy, whatever, I always pin it back to I think the Obama administration culturally was probably one of the most potent presidencies because we saw so many things change.
00:53:46.000And that's why he was able to get so much done when it comes to our social and society, gay marriage, you know, pushing ideologies, making sure minority representation holding corporate America accountable for whether or not they're like even today, when he goes on a podcast, why aren't universities standing up to this administration?
00:54:10.000Why isn't Harvard, Harvard was supposed to be MIT, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, all of these, all of these, you know, institutions were supposed to be of higher learning and of the best of the best.
00:54:20.000It wasn't supposed to be woke ideologies.
00:54:35.000Even the University of Michigan, right?
00:54:37.000One of the best institutions, one of the best research institutions, they were having trouble because a lot of their identity was tied into diversity, equity, and inclusion.
00:54:47.000And so that's why they had so much trouble adjusting to the Trump administration because he was saying, hey, we're getting rid of that and we're going merit-based.
00:54:55.000So even when it came to people don't want to say it, and I'm going to say the uncomfortable truth.
00:55:00.000You know, a lot of these foreign students, they're paying higher tuition.
00:55:04.000They out-competing people here in the United States of America when it comes to them coming into universalization.
00:55:55.000So she took out a bunch of student loans.
00:55:57.000She couldn't compete when it came to actually, you know, going through the program and actually meeting the same expectations as all of the guys that was in there.
00:56:37.000Oh, listen, corporate America gave away billions, if not trillions of dollars over the last 15 years, acquiescing and making women feel comfortable.
00:57:07.000So would you say that also strains the corporate world where, you know, camaraderie might go down or people are worried about what they're doing or what they're saying.
00:57:16.000We didn't even do the things that we were.
00:57:19.000Usually when you go into corporate America, and you know this, they do what they call team building.
00:57:43.000We didn't even do team building the same, right?
00:57:45.000We can't say the things that we would normally say when it's just the guys, right?
00:57:49.000Or when you're just comfortable outside of you have to watch your language.
00:57:52.000Now, there's somebody and some people that's probably watching this that will say, good, because guys shouldn't be talking like that anyway.
00:57:59.000No, that's exactly what we're supposed to be talking about.
00:58:02.000Like we talk about all the things that we want to talk about, but you had to be a lot more careful because you didn't want women to get offended because they were pushing more women in corporate America because, and the reason that companies spent more money on this was not necessarily because it added more value.
00:58:16.000They wrote it off as a part of marketing.
00:58:49.000You know, the Gillette commercial, which, if I'm not mistaken, it was a woman that made that decision and gave the green light to put that commercial out.
00:58:54.000And for those of you that don't know, there's a Gillette commercial.
00:58:56.000We can actually even pull it up real quick because I think it shows perfectly what you're saying that women infiltrating corporate America leads to strategies that might actually be counterproductive long term in the pursuit of inclusivity.
00:59:11.000So they're losing money to be more inclusive.
00:59:14.000And in this commercial, what Gillette basically did was they demonized toxic masculinity.
01:00:13.000Men were so scared to even, like, let's say, for example, I'm an executive and I go and I got to go talk to this woman or I need to, you know, do a review with her or I need to do her annual review or something like that.
01:00:26.000Guys then had to go and find another woman to go and sit with them to do a review just to have a conversation with the woman because guys were so scared at the fact that they could possibly get accused of something.
01:00:42.000It was Skip Bayless that was against Skip Bayless inside of the lawsuit.
01:00:46.000Joy Taylor herself wasn't necessarily being sued.
01:00:49.000However, in the lawsuit, what you found was that they were saying that, and this is what was an accusation from a woman inside of the actual paperwork that was filed against Skip Bayless and Fox Force One.
01:00:59.000Was she said that if she was to ever get held accountable, get held accountable and lose her job, what would she do?
01:01:06.000She would accuse the guy that was above her that hired her of sexual, you know, unwanted sexual events.
01:01:14.000So it's so problematic that managers have, I guess, strategies to mitigate inevitable potential.
01:01:22.000They had to create an entire different culture by which people, men could have conversations with women in corporate America in order to protect the men from being accused of something that they didn't do for giving her a bad review.
01:01:32.000Or if a woman felt like she was under duress and about to lose her job or she wasn't getting the promotion that she wanted, then she could leverage that and accuse a man of something that she didn't do.
01:01:42.000And this is why it was very when we start to look at the corporate culture, corporate culture in America in itself, women infiltrating men's spaces completely changed the dynamics of how men had to operate and do their jobs.
01:03:12.000You just can't because you can't mix business with pleasure.
01:03:15.000That's how you find yourself in a situation where a woman, you already got, you're already behind the eight ball because they can accuse you of something without any kind of due process and you didn't even have to do anything.
01:03:56.000When you have a clearance or whatever, franchisation is a bit more acceptable because it's like, at least you're marrying someone on the job, whatever.
01:04:00.000But in the corporate world, it seems like it's completely fair.
01:04:03.000So would it be fair to say that, like, just from what you're saying, women would use this as a very viable strategy to prevent being terminated?
01:04:10.000They would use this and it was basically.
01:04:32.000Just because you was a chick that fucked him.
01:04:36.000That's incredible that a woman can kind of go in with the strategy and almost like kind of fail-safe set up where they can never get rid of her.
01:04:44.000Man, listen, women have leveraged pussy since the beginning of time, bro.
01:04:51.000And it is taking place in corporate America at a level that people have no clue.
01:05:35.000If you're just getting in, you're going to be first level.
01:05:38.000When you start to play into it a little bit differently, the thing that they probably do is that they start to associate themselves with the guy right above the guy that's on them.
01:05:46.000So let's say, for example, if I'm a woman and it's so funny.
01:05:52.000If I'm a woman and you go through, let's say you got a first-level supervisor, right?
01:05:56.000The first level supervisor possibly want to fuck her anyway.
01:05:59.000But the guy that she should be targeting is his boss.
01:06:03.000So you want to do drive-bys past the office of the guy that's right above you in order to get more visibility.
01:06:48.000So that's why it's important for guys, like you, if you get motion in any way, whether you win in financial, corporate America, or whatever, for you not to be so smitten by the first woman that compliments you is important because it'll preserve your bag.
01:07:05.000It'll preserve your ability to continue to win and make money.
01:07:29.000What I'm saying is don't go and fuck the chick that's your direct direct report on the job.
01:07:34.000That's what I'm saying because it's going to mess up your bag.
01:07:37.000And a lot of times it'll also mess up your career because it's directly tied to, and the further up you get, the more it's just like concentration.
01:07:45.000Because in a content creator world, the more motion you get, the smaller it is.
01:07:51.000And really, it's all a lot smaller the further up you go.
01:07:54.000You start knowing who people are, you start being associated with people, you start being categorized with the same people.
01:07:59.000You're going to meet people that's in your sphere.
01:08:02.000And it's the same thing in corporate America, especially in certain sectors.
01:08:05.000The further up you go, the more they're all associated.
01:08:08.000And your reputation is everything when you get into corporate America.
01:08:11.000That's why, that's specifically why I wouldn't talk about certain things until after I retired the first time.
01:08:18.000Then that's when I started having certain conversations because I knew that my reputation was directly tied to what my online image is, which is the thing that I was selling in corporate America.
01:08:28.000So I couldn't do the same stuff and have the same conversations unless I was 100% sure that I was never probably going to corporate America again.
01:09:04.000And I'm showing you guys this as an example of this is what happens when you bring woke ideology that's that's typically brought in by women.
01:09:10.000Because if I'm not mistaken, it was a woman that directed and approved this higher up at Gillette.
01:11:06.000Because obviously you coming from that world.
01:11:09.000What are your thoughts on that commercial?
01:11:10.000I think that companies try to start to market to women.
01:11:15.000And more importantly, what they also did was they lost the core of their audience by starting to try to participate in politics altogether.
01:11:23.000Getting involved in diversity, equity, inclusion, and hiring people just because of their gender or hiring people because they were black was getting involved in politics.
01:11:32.000And they just went further into it when it came to their marketing.
01:12:05.000And the reason that is long-term value, the way that executive compensation is set up is that you can't, you're incentivized to add long-term value because you can't even move your options, the equity that they pay you in, you can't move in your options until later on, even after you retired.
01:12:24.000So if you're not adding long-term value, not just short-term, long-term value, then your financial compensation will be affected long-term as a result of it also.
01:12:36.000Obviously, this is a publicly traded company.
01:12:38.000The execs from that side are going to be a bit more, I guess they're going to make, they might have a different strategy than a company that's not publicly traded.
01:12:45.000Can you kind of give us the difference between that?
01:12:46.000Not necessarily because a lot of, well, it depends.
01:12:51.000I think that it's different because when you're okay, I'll give you an example.
01:12:56.000When you talk about a Chick-fil-A, a lot of times Chick-fil-A has largely been marketed as a company that is more of a right-leaning company that closes on Sundays, all of that type of stuff, right?
01:13:07.000But they don't answer to anybody because it's not a publicly traded company.
01:13:31.000So they control the dynamics, but also they're marketing themselves without marketing themselves as a company that shuts down on Sunday, their traditional, you know, but they've also created a cult following because people actually like the fact that they stand on what it is that they stand on.
01:13:48.000I remember they tried to open up in Canada somewhere and people were protesting and shit like that, saying that they don't like gay people and they're bigoted.
01:13:54.000Even though they've never said anything like that, right?
01:13:56.000But it's easy for liberals to market to liberals because, you know, that's the way that they get themselves riled up.
01:14:02.000Whereas if you talk about a publicly traded company, any company that you can invest in in the stock market, the shareholders are your boss.
01:14:10.000The board is put together as a result of the amount of shares that they own in the company.
01:14:15.000And so they may give you a board seat to help direct who it is or how it is that you supposed to move from a corporate perspective.
01:14:21.000So the CEO answers to the board members.
01:14:23.000When a lot of people say, yo, you, you know, getting to the CEO, you determine, no, the board is the ones that determine what happens.
01:14:30.000They are the ones that approved Elon Musk compensation.
01:14:34.000It had go had to go directly and get approved by the board.
01:14:36.000Elon Musk answers to the board, who also answers to the shareholders.
01:14:40.000And so the point is, is that you have to bring value to the company.
01:14:45.000I personally believe the reason why Elon Musk started pulling back, and I think that it was a strategic thing.
01:14:51.000I don't even think that him and Trump really hate each other, to be honest with you.
01:14:54.000I think that it was strategic for him to start pulling back because him getting more involved in politics actually affected the bottom line of the company itself.
01:15:02.000So when they start reporting quarterly earnings and then that starts to affect the valuation of the company, well, now you're starting to mess up the money and we got to start having some conversations because it is a publicly traded company.
01:15:14.000How much stock do you need to hold or what percentage, I guess to keep it simple, would you need to actually be able to sit on the board where you're actually affecting?
01:15:20.000It's different for different companies.
01:15:32.000Or it's through a pension fund or it could be a lot of different.
01:15:37.000When Tim Walls was talking shit about Elon Musk and Tesla, what he didn't realize was that the pension fund and the retirees and the system itself was directly invested in Tesla.
01:15:48.000So they were affected by the very things and the protests that was happening against the company itself.
01:15:53.000But because politicians are dumb and they're ignorant and they don't really understand business a lot of times, what they don't realize is that they're actually shooting themselves in the foot by being against American companies because his very pension and the government employees is directly affected by Tesla's stock.
01:16:12.000A lot of times, a lot of times individual investors, they'll go in and they'll try to buy more shares in order to control what happens in the company and get more board seats.
01:16:22.000So they can start to say, hey, listen, we don't want to do this or you need to be more focused on this or you need to be more focused on that.
01:16:29.000Or, hey, listen, I think that we should break off this part of the company and sell it and have this and put the debt over here.
01:16:37.000a lot of companies, for example, just from a business perspective, what they'll do is, let's say, PayPal, right?
01:16:44.000PayPal and eBay used to be directly tied to each other.
01:16:47.000And what happened was once they broke off, then they actually separated the companies because they were integrated with each other and then they pushed the debt onto one side.
01:17:27.000Well, it depends because I got a different audience for different things.
01:17:30.000So, for example, what we talk about on After Hours or what I talk about on the Anton Daniels channel is much different than what it is that I talk about on a Millionaire Morning Show.
01:17:39.000The Millionaire Morning Show, I kind of use that as kind of like a morning show itself.
01:17:44.000Whereas the Anton Daniels channel, it kind of was like an inside look into what it is that I am.
01:17:51.000But it's also the pioneer channel that I then have all of the offshoot channels created from.
01:17:55.000So, you know, you have different channels for different things.
01:17:57.000And then, you know, that's the way I kind of run my ship itself.
01:18:01.000I don't want everything on one channel because I want to tap into different audiences.
01:18:05.000And sometimes, and I'll also tell you this.
01:18:10.000And this is a little bit of game for y'all.
01:18:12.000Every channel was not created equal when it comes to how much money that you make per channel because of the type of content that you put on there.
01:18:20.000So if I'm talking about relationships, the CPMs and the amount that I make per impression in the watch time is a completely different financial breakdown from what it is when I'm talking about finances and politics and money and credit cards and what is happening with advertisement and artificial intelligence.
01:18:44.000So you make way, I make way more money, you know, per view, per watch hour on the Millionaire Morning Show than I do on the Anton Daniels channel.
01:18:53.000Takes way more views to meet the same expectation as far as what it is that I'm making per live stream.
01:19:01.000Steele Wall again says, Inthana Danos, when you had to restart everything back at your mom's basement, what were the key things you were doing to progress from that situation?
01:19:10.000Also, what is the biggest thing you learned from that situation in your life?
01:19:12.000That I didn't have to spend money in order to...
01:19:19.000The biggest thing that I learned is that once I started making money, I didn't have to increase my lifestyle.
01:19:24.000A lot of people, they increase their lifestyle according to how much money that they make.
01:19:38.000And it's because they increase their lifestyle to reflect how much money that they make.
01:19:42.000And so what I learned in that situation was that the more money I made, the more I just needed to invest instead of spending it on things in order to make sure people make sure, you know, keeping up with the Joneses, making sure that people like me.
01:19:54.000When people say that they have a money problem, more importantly, they're really telling you they got a spending problem.
01:20:01.000I realized that I previously had a spending problem.
01:20:39.000Like, I'm not saying don't get your own place, but what I am saying is put your own long-term objectives and the things that you want to do before you put it before the hoes.
01:22:05.000Myron leaned heavily into his background, especially when it came to law enforcement.
01:22:10.000It gives him way more credibility when he's breaking down different subjects from his lens of a person that really understands it from a federal level, right?
01:22:18.000When you talk about Fresh, Fresh really is involved in this lifestyle.
01:22:22.000So when he has these conversations, he's looking at it from a completely different lens.
01:22:26.000I think that the problem with most streamers is that they try to duplicate what somebody else is doing instead of being authentically them and looking at it from your perspective.
01:22:35.000So we can all talk about the same subject.
01:22:38.000We're going to have a different breakdown depending on who we are and what our lens is.
01:22:42.000You looking at it from a caseworker's perspective and understanding alcoholism, you're going to have a whole nother conversation.
01:22:49.000Let's just say, for example, just throw something out there to Diddy case, right?
01:26:31.000Top three names from our interviews in a movie.
01:26:35.000Bruce IED Vin Laden or Johnny Twin Jets.
01:26:39.000Hey, man, don't quit your day job, bro.
01:26:41.000Mario, do you pick up from last show that one Indian chick who was complaining that did he had a power imbalance on a woman just because they're billionaires?
01:26:47.000All these women and future women who make more money than her bosses them around.
01:26:50.000Yeah, bro, you're trying to bring logic to the illogical female arguments of Me Too Era and them wanting autonomy while simultaneously not wanting to be held accountable for their bad sexual decisions.
01:27:02.000She said she feels like he had the power.
01:27:04.000So anybody that sat there in that courtroom, bro, will know that this is a nigga that was a pervert.
01:27:13.000And, you know, realistically speaking, if we're going to be all the way at 1,000, bro, is about to do Fed time for flying in a bunch of male prostitutes.
01:28:40.000Well, there's another layer there as well that people don't realize the board is the board, but then there's the people that fund the enterprises and all those also those corporations.
01:28:52.000It's kind of like they have like another tier that are being told what to do and they fund the establishment.
01:29:03.000You got to look at companies a little different, right?
01:29:05.000So there are some companies that are established that have a profitability model.
01:29:10.000So they actually have real profits coming in.
01:29:12.000And then there's other companies that are growth, right?
01:29:15.000Growth companies are companies that's not necessarily making money, but they're looking to get a higher valuation so that they can ultimately either get sold.
01:29:52.000It's a risk that they may not be successful.
01:29:54.000But if they do decide to go public and they do get rich, then a lot of the times the early investors, the early people that come into it, they wind up making a lot of money.
01:30:02.000Open AI, the company that owns ChatGBT, when Microsoft came in and said, hey, we want to make a capital investment in you, it basically started to blow up their valuation.
01:30:10.000The company became a lot more higher valued and a lot more profitable because of the product that they was putting out.
01:30:16.000And then they figured out how to monetize later.
01:30:19.000When Instagram first came out, they wasn't running ads.
01:30:21.000But the value of Instagram exploded when Meta wound up buying them, and then they figured out how to monetize it later and they brought them into the ecosystem.
01:30:29.000So, just so I make sure I understand this, because obviously we're kind of in a unique situation here.
01:30:34.000So, they have an obligation, obviously, when they're public, especially to make their investors money.
01:30:40.000But the strategy for how they're going to make money differs because they may not necessarily be making money in the short term.
01:30:49.000But if their strategy for marketing the company, Perplexity is an AI company that just made a proposition to buy Google Chrome for $34.5 billion.
01:30:59.000They know that Google that is valued at $2.46 trillion is not going to take that deal.
01:31:05.000However, what Perplexity did was they didn't do that because they thought that Do Google was going to take the deal.
01:31:12.000They made that proposition because they wanted more visibility for their product so that they can get more app downloads.
01:31:20.000So sometimes companies make smart marketing plays that bring more visibility to the company.
01:31:25.000And sometimes they mess up by making bad ads that they think is going to tap into the diversity, equity, and inclusion or the feminist crowd that fall flat on their feet.
01:31:35.000They have a fiduciary obligation to do what's best for the shareholders, but it don't always work.
01:31:42.000So when you see bad ads like that, we look at it in hindsight and say that that was a bad idea.
01:31:47.000Somebody up in marketing or somebody in the executive offices said, this will be a great idea to come out here and get more visibility for the company and maybe get more female buyers of Gillette.
01:32:43.000They were in competition with each other to gather more market share because ultimately the goal was that they would be able to monetize more effectively if they can push out the other one, right?
01:32:52.000When you talk about Tesla, Tesla was never really more profitable than Toyota.
01:32:57.000But Tesla's valuation, how much the company was worth, is now not just based off of the fact that Tesla was selling cars.
01:33:04.000It's because Tesla is a technology company.
01:33:06.000That's a company that they can monetize full self-driving.
01:33:12.000They're going with automation of large trucks and they're going to change the trucking industry and electrification and buying into government subsidies and the Biden chips act, right?
01:33:24.000All of that stuff factors into the valuation of the company.
01:33:27.000So if somebody is looking at it and they're saying, man, how high is a stock going to go or how low is a stock going to go?
01:33:32.000Or if it's properly valued, well, you don't just look at it from whether or not they're profitable.
01:33:37.000You look at the prospects of what the company is going to do long term.
01:33:40.000And if it's a growth stock or if it's a stock of a company that's actually going to go down because it's not profitable and it's a company that's easily disrupted.
01:33:49.000Can another competitor come in and do and take over?
01:33:52.000A lot of what Elon Musk is doing or a lot of Elon Musk's dependencies is on the fact that they're dependent on the Trump administration and before that, the Biden administration from preventing electric cars from China from coming over here in the United States of America.
01:34:05.000As long as they can keep Chinese cars pushed out of the United States of America, which they are subsidized by the Chinese government, then they can compete more effectively inside of the United States of America.
01:34:16.000Their valuation is based off of what happened in politics, is based off of what happens as far as the future technologies.
01:34:24.000Grock, they got that integrated into the Tesla vehicle.
01:34:28.000They're using camera systems to basically map out everything of America to ultimately push out full self-driving to where they can sell a subscription service and not just sell cars.
01:34:51.000But what we don't know is their valuation might have gone up because now they're broader and they've opened doors for them.
01:34:58.000Though we're looking at it like you niggas are stupid.
01:35:00.000They might know, look, we're going to run this ad.
01:35:02.000We're probably going to lose a couple billion on the front end because people are going to get mad and not buy butt light.
01:35:06.000But what we are doing is we're increasing our valuation.
01:35:09.000So that, okay, that's different companies take different strategic risks based off of what they're trying to do and bring long-term value to the shareholders.
01:35:18.000So it's not black and white with are you operating the, there's so many other plays.
01:35:23.000But see, that's why I honestly, and I'm not pushing or promoting, this is the type of breakdowns that I do a lot more inside of my Patreon.
01:35:33.000When I say the eight things that I look for when I'm looking to invest in a company, I'm going based off of the charts, the valuations, the long-term strategy, the leadership, politics.
01:35:42.000Everything takes a play in what's happening and whether or not you want to invest in a company long-term.
01:35:46.000So a Normie might look at who owns Butlight, Anheuser-Busch or whatever.
01:35:50.000I'm sure they probably have a, they're publicly traded.
01:35:52.000Someone like me, who is aware of this stuff, might say, I ain't buying that.
01:35:56.000They're going viral for the wrong reasons.
01:35:58.000But someone like you might say, nah, it's going to go down, but it's going to come back up because the valuation is going to be a lot more.
01:36:03.000So, for example, when the tariffs hit, that was the biggest buy-in opportunity ever because people that don't understand the market, the short-term play was, oh my God, everything is messed up.
01:36:21.000Especially for certain companies in America because they're going to capitalize about what's going to happen with a lot of these trade deals.
01:36:28.000That's why NVIDIA is now valued at $4 trillion because we have a vested interest in making sure that they build more chips and become more profitable because that's built into everything that we do in AI related.
