00:00:00.340 Lisa, tell them about our new show.
00:00:03.000 We have a new podcast.
00:00:04.320 It's called Don't Lie to Me.
00:00:05.760 I'm Lexi Iwanu.
00:00:06.860 We're two best friends, 22 years apart, but so close at heart.
00:00:11.040 And I'm Lisa DiGiulio, the old one,
00:00:13.200 which means we have wildly different references,
00:00:15.440 occasionally different opinions.
00:00:16.760 And at this point in my 50s, I've lived it all.
00:00:19.600 Now in my 30s, being the founder of New Shoes,
00:00:22.560 Good Taste is my business.
00:00:24.740 Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts,
00:00:27.620 or wherever you get your podcasts.
00:00:30.000 I'm Lacey Mosley, author, actor, stand-up comedian, creator,
00:00:34.920 and host of Scam Goddess Podcast.
00:00:37.200 The true crime comedy podcast, all about robbery, fraud,
00:00:40.420 and those who practice it.
00:00:41.600 Each week I bring on an amazing guest.
00:00:43.500 Ooh, I scammed them.
00:00:44.680 What?
00:00:45.140 I could talk to you for an hour.
00:00:46.680 You're a generational yapper, like me.
00:00:48.680 That's why I had to make yapping a job.
00:00:50.460 And now you can catch full episodes of my show on YouTube.
00:00:53.960 Start listening to Scam Goddess on the iHeartRadio app,
00:00:56.920 Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
00:00:59.080 Let's go, I've got it!
00:01:29.080 You've never seen Italy so quiet as when the Pope gets up to wink on Halloween.
00:01:34.660 Listen to Artists on Artists on Artists on Artists every Thursday on the iHeartRadio app,

00:01:42.960 And I'm Martin.
00:01:43.620 And we're the hosts of Out of Character, the best podcast in the world, is what they said.
00:01:47.820 Wait, they said that?
00:01:48.840 Yeah, yeah, they said that.
00:01:50.020 The best podcast with two best friends who jabber and talk about topical, trendy, funny stuff,
00:01:55.680 give our input on it.
00:01:56.740 That's what you've needed, I think, up until now, listener.
00:01:59.080 Listen out of character on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
00:02:04.540 Sometimes I just feel like a burden.

00:02:10.540 Dude, you messed up the clip.
00:02:12.400 You know, I got to a point where, you know, and I share about this sometimes, it's like I was too afraid to kill myself, but I didn't want to go on living either.
00:02:22.620 Right?
00:02:22.900 And I was 21 years old.
00:02:26.740 She watches every episode.

00:07:23.580 I think it's a palm ski
00:07:25.020 I don't know what it is

00:07:29.100 it was so hard for me 0.99
00:07:30.000 to get a dog growing up
00:07:30.780 and like I said
00:07:31.620 I kind of feel like
00:07:32.960 I got stabbed in the back
00:07:33.980 if I'm being honest 0.91
00:07:34.640 kind of makes me feel disgusting
00:07:35.900 Do you think he's living in your room back home?
00:07:38.700 At this point, probably.
00:07:39.860 He's using my toothbrush.
00:07:40.860 He's taking dumps on your pillow.
00:07:42.240 Yeah.
00:07:42.520 What's the dog's name?
00:07:44.280 Probably Mike.
00:07:45.740 Really?
00:07:46.080 They gave it a human name, huh?
00:07:47.640 I see a lot of that these days.
00:07:49.200 I knew a couple dogs back in Connecticut.
00:07:51.160 Bob and Henry.
00:07:52.120 Is there a dog named Mike?
00:07:54.620 I've never heard of a dog named Mike.
00:07:56.200 That's why it's funny.
00:07:57.160 What do you think my dog is going to be named?
00:07:59.700 Mark?
00:08:00.320 Nope.
00:08:00.640 It's going to be named Mike.
00:08:01.580 Jimmy?
00:08:01.820 It was really easy.
00:08:02.920 You had already pitched the answer up to yourselves.
00:08:04.820 Guys, this is a pretty boring conversation.
00:08:08.180 You'd be surprised.
00:08:08.620 Wait, no, no, but I'm going to spin it.
00:08:10.000 Okay, cool.
00:08:10.740 I'm going to spin it.
00:08:11.680 I was bored on a date this last week.
00:08:14.280 I went on a date.
00:08:15.240 Don't say the girl's name. 0.60
00:08:16.260 You know her.
00:08:17.540 And I knew I was bored because she was—this is so bad.
00:08:21.440 She was talking, and we were outside on our patio,
00:08:24.400 and I looked up at, like, the numbers of the address of the restaurant across the way,
00:08:29.060 and I started adding the numbers.
00:08:32.100 What'd you get?
00:08:32.900 It was 14.
00:08:34.240 Wow.
00:08:34.600 So you didn't go the next step of adding the one plus the four?
00:08:39.440 No.
00:08:40.160 I should have, right?
00:08:40.920 To get five.
00:08:41.320 To get five.
00:08:41.860 Back to five.
00:08:42.540 But once I got 14, I was like, this is bad.
00:08:44.800 I got a board. 1.00
00:08:46.000 And, bro, like, fuck, she's going to know who she is. 1.00
00:08:48.900 We were playing games. 1.00
00:08:49.960 We were playing Connect Four.
00:08:52.420 That's an exhilarating game. 1.00
00:08:53.800 But I realized I am fucking ruthless when it comes to playing games with girls. 1.00
00:08:58.240 I will not let them win. 1.00
00:08:59.440 You know how you're supposed to let girls win? 1.00
00:09:00.920 Not me. 1.00
00:09:01.800 The moment a game's whipped out? 0.99
00:09:03.040 nah man so is my dick and i must i must figuratively i must win the game i love a good 0.99
00:09:09.360 dick joke there's no there's no handouts for me only no handouts just hand jobs nice keep them 1.00
00:09:15.100 going man i'm loving this episode as far as just dicks on dicks which is ironic because this is 0.97
00:09:19.360 actually a really extremely great value-based podcast for any entrepreneurs out there so if 0.99
00:09:24.020 any of you are left uh we've already hit our dick quota so we should probably just move on to the
00:09:28.440 Yeah, that's a good idea. 0.99
00:09:30.940 Dick quota. 0.99
00:09:31.620 Both of them who have dicks as well, which is a strange coincidence. 0.99
00:09:35.200 Well, only one of them is coming on, but there are two of them. 0.98
00:09:37.960 Guys, I want to bring them on.
00:09:38.620 Today's episode is a treat for any of the young entrepreneurs out there.
00:09:41.400 We like to have fun here, but it's more fun to have fun
00:09:43.640 when you have some money in your pocket.
00:09:45.200 I'm just being honest with you.
00:09:46.460 It's true.
00:09:46.820 At one point, our guest was bouncing checks at the supermarket,
00:09:49.200 dead, broken, almost dead from drug addiction.
00:09:52.180 Today, he's built multiple businesses,
00:09:53.920 become a marketing and advertising expert,

00:10:30.560 How do we always just devolve back to genitalia? 0.65
00:10:33.040 Why?
00:10:33.260 Because everything's really close to it, if you think about it at the end of the day.
00:10:36.120 It's where we come from.
00:10:37.020 The one intended.
00:10:37.980 Yeah.

00:11:08.940 Thank you very much.
00:11:09.740 But it wasn't always just race.
00:11:11.780 Just a little sample.
00:11:12.540 No, no, it was definitely not.
00:11:14.220 So you iterated to me outside, just outside there.
00:11:16.980 You had a severe drug addiction.
00:11:19.160 I did.
00:11:19.500 And so did Mike
00:11:20.920 So maybe there's some synergy
00:11:21.960 We should try to connect on a level
00:11:24.080 I feel like we could do that
00:11:24.920 That's what podcasts are for
00:11:25.980 Absolutely
00:11:26.480 You started at the age of
00:11:28.380 What did you say, 12?
00:11:29.540 12, yeah
00:11:30.080 What were you doing at the age of 12?
00:11:32.740 What were you addicted to?
00:11:33.840 Blocks?
00:11:34.520 I was actually
00:11:35.160 I would grind them up
00:11:36.000 Snort them 1.00
00:11:36.620 Candyland or some shit 0.99
00:11:38.560 Yeah, of course 1.00
00:11:39.240 You put in your colon
00:11:40.220 12 is early, dude
00:11:41.340 What is a 7th grader?
00:11:42.960 No, so
00:11:43.340 I started
00:11:44.760 I would skip school
00:11:46.700 And smoke weed
00:11:47.560 or you know um you know i'm jewish so like i had a bar mitzvah like every other weekend that year
00:11:52.300 okay so you just like hit up the open bar uh all the time how are you drinking at 12 i don't know
00:11:58.740 nobody really gave a shit gotcha yeah all right so um so yeah it just it started off like that 0.93
00:12:04.020 man like skip school smoke weed drink when you can look you know i always felt like really 0.93
00:12:08.840 uncomfortable in my own skin man like my whole life right so like every any time that i was able
00:12:12.860 to to use or do anything like that like you know i felt i felt okay you know and that's really all
00:12:18.760 i ever wanted out of life was just to kind of like like feel okay man you know yep and um
00:12:24.240 and like that did it for a while right but that's but i mean like that's extremely fleeting
00:12:31.180 right yeah yeah of course dangerous and yeah yeah absolutely to describe how not healthy that is
00:12:37.020 No, absolutely. So, so I ran with that. And then it's the same that you hear from any other story, like, like this one, right, with where there's drugs and addiction and things that, you know, things involve like that. You know, you you lose jobs, you lose family, you lose friends, you alienate yourself. And it got to a point where, you know, we always I was telling you about this outside. It was like, you get to a point where you see everyone around you in your life kind of move on. You know, eventually people stop giving a shit.
00:13:04.720 you know people stop caring at a certain point and everyone just kind of like moves on with their 0.99
00:13:09.440 life and um and then when you're still there where they leave like that it's a pretty lonely
00:13:17.600 place to be man especially when you don't know how to get yourself out of it right so you know
00:13:23.780 i got to a point where you know i and i and i share about this sometimes it's like i was i was
00:13:29.240 too afraid to kill myself, but I didn't want to go on living either. Right. And I was 21 years old.
00:13:36.260 And, um, and I remember, you know, it's so funny, right. Because I remember,
00:13:41.740 you know, and I had tried to stop a hundred times, man, for like, you know, for a job,
00:13:45.220 for a girl, for a friend, for anything, right. You always try and do it for something that isn't,
00:13:49.220 you know, for yourself. And, um, and every single time I failed every single time.
00:13:55.160 and I remember just getting to this point where I honestly I don't even know why that time was
00:14:02.960 different I I can't like I mean I wish I there was like some profound thing that happened or
00:14:07.260 something but it was just kind of like it was just kind of like I knew that I couldn't keep
00:14:12.040 going that way and I knew like I had made my mind up that like there had to be something more and I
00:14:15.780 didn't want to you know I didn't want to die I'm I'm always so fascinated uh when that put my foot
00:14:21.440 don stopping moment is and and he he described his a couple times i i thought found his really
00:14:27.120 interesting because it sounds a little bit like yours in a way that you're not really sure why
00:14:33.580 that time worked i mean yours was a little more yeah i mean mine mine was i was basically i was
00:14:39.600 on death's door you know what i'm saying so my addiction was was to the worst evils and heroin
00:14:43.980 and crack cocaine and shit that was just you know basically had my foot in the grave and so i was in
00:14:48.480 a really bad place um and i and i felt like i was gonna die any day like i had not slept in almost 0.60
00:14:54.040 three weeks my blood was just crawling like i was having just manic nightmares it was just
00:14:59.580 night tremors it was terrible and uh i got i got court ordered into rehab so it made my life a lot
00:15:06.220 easier they said you're gonna go to rehab you're gonna go to jail one or the other and so that was
00:15:09.660 great i still had to make the decision afterwards to stay clean and a lot of that had to do with
00:15:15.020 my support system and not wanting to hurt people in my life anymore and wanting to meet and to your
00:15:20.240 point wanting to make my life a better place you know what i'm saying like i wanted to do better
00:15:23.680 i didn't want to die with the last thought people had of me as mike the kid that od'd and died yeah
00:15:31.880 i'd never wanted that you know what i'm saying his road was extremely visceral and and violent and
00:15:38.900 just unhealthy every like negative like scary adjective i can use to describe his road he's
00:15:44.880 making a book about it was yours like that in any way i mean look i you know i don't know about you
00:15:50.300 but i i have a couple not yet right so like i was i was never homeless right i always had some
00:15:55.240 assemblance of a roof over my head even if it wasn't the nicest of places right i still had a
00:15:59.280 roof um there was still food in the fridge right but like you know i had od'd several times um
00:16:06.640 you know i'd been in terrible car accidents multiple you know ones um you know if like you
00:16:12.920 know it's it's like kind of a cliche thing to say but it's true man like if life was fair 0.94
00:16:16.620 i wouldn't be here you know and that's and that's that's the fucking truth so um
00:16:23.480 you know yeah i mean i think and look there's there's this there's a story right where they 0.73
00:16:28.780 say um you know because look when i first you know and for me you know i'm not endorsing any
00:16:33.140 fellowship or anything like that but for me i got clean and narcotics anonymous and in august i'll
00:16:37.860 have 14 years clean right congrats so thanks man so you're all i got 10 years in uh coming up in
00:16:46.040 june actually june 23rd was my clean day oh nice man we just passed it sorry nine years nine years
00:16:51.840 nice well i hope i hope you never beat me so yeah exactly exactly but i and i i did 90 90 in na as
00:16:58.760 straight out of rehab and then i didn't stay in it and i i somewhat regret that because it is a
00:17:04.220 great program and once again i'm not promoting just like you're not it's a great program for
00:17:08.120 sure no so what they say is is like you know as far as you know who had it worse or who whatever
00:17:12.840 right that there's this there's a saying that goes you know if uh if a three-year-old girl has
00:17:17.160 like a stuffed animal right and that's that's her thing her everything right that's all she has
00:17:22.360 and then a year later she loses it right the loss of having that is traumatic for that three-year-old
00:17:28.300 pain is pain right exactly it's all relative you have an 80 year old you know an 80 year old man
00:17:33.780 that loses his wife right that pain is still you know pretty intense right but the pain is relative
00:17:39.980 like what's whose pain is more now as now as people we rationally know that like it's you know
00:17:46.160 worse to lose a human being right but in that moment just the feeling of that pain is the same
00:17:50.940 we talked we talked about this a lot multiple times in the past few episodes i can't remember
00:17:56.260 what the last one was but it was basically about whenever this conversation comes up first you know
00:18:01.900 people who are watching this that are going through through things or guests that we have on the show
00:18:05.280 that your pain is always warranted like don't ever don't ever try to hide your pain and use
00:18:11.900 perspective and understand that you do have things very good and if you're watching the show you have
00:18:15.820 things better than people that can't watch the show because they're blind or they can't afford
00:18:19.300 internet or whatever it is but at the same time like understand your pain is warranted like we
00:18:23.240 we understand it and you should you should be aligned with it and it's it's acceptable
00:18:28.860 everyone's stuff is valid dude yeah you know and that's and that's important yep and and so here's
00:18:34.660 why your story is is so interesting is because you you pulled quite the 180 adam uh when you
00:18:40.220 you got off drugs at 21 yep and then when you were 23 what what did you do that made you a
00:18:46.120 multi multi-millionaire or the what would become a huge massive business or multiple yeah so so
00:18:52.600 actually i mean look so you know uh in narcotics and i'm gonna say this thing called h and i right
00:18:58.220 and at the time which stands for hospitals and institutions which um you go into like either a
00:19:02.900 jail or detox and you bring a meeting into you know either adults or kids or whatever so for a
00:19:08.580 little while i was going to a community college because like that's what you're supposed to do
00:19:12.480 right i'm also jewish so like i had to go back to school at some point to be a doctor or lawyer
00:19:15.840 because that's what you're supposed to do yeah you had dropped out originally i did i did how
00:19:20.320 how long did you make it um before i went back or before you dropped out the first time oh man
00:19:25.640 not not long really yeah semester not even uh maybe like two three semesters gotcha yeah and
00:19:31.800 then i went back and um and i was doing h and i at the same time and then i was trying to you know
00:19:37.060 i was thinking about becoming like a clinical psychologist because as we do you get clean you 0.60
00:19:40.160 want to like help you want to fucking help everybody right yeah um you know and i was i 0.69
00:19:44.700 was bringing this meeting into a group of kids man and a detox and um and you're supposed to 0.96
00:19:49.700 be able to like leave there and take it home with you and not take it home with you. And,
00:19:53.140 and man, I just fucking sucked at that. You know, every time I came home, like I couldn't sleep 0.99
00:19:58.420 that night. Like it was, I mean, you hear just the worst things imaginable, you know? And then
00:20:04.080 I thought to myself, like, this isn't what I want to do for the rest of my life. You know,
00:20:07.320 like I thought that I had to go this route of like going to college and getting a degree in
00:20:12.160 something professional. And that had to be it. Right. Because like, what else do you do? And
00:20:18.360 so I went ahead and I decided that it was, you know, it wasn't for me. And, you know, I
00:20:26.380 kind of left. Well, I didn't leave school just yet. Right. So what I did was like, but I wasn't
00:20:31.920 really going either. Yeah. I figured if I stayed enrolled, then maybe like I had still had the
00:20:36.880 option or something. Did you feel like, so sorry for drawing or attempting maybe to draw like
00:20:42.660 parallels between your guys journey but um mike's iterated to me that like he sort of
00:20:48.680 had felt like maybe a part of his life was taken or however you want it was lost to to drugs and
00:20:56.500 drug addiction drugs alcohol whatever you want to call it and so maybe now i mean maybe it's who you
00:21:01.720 were i mean your whole family's like bubbly and like young and spry but maybe the reason we get
00:21:06.740 along so well is because he has the life experience of a 34 year old but in a way he's still living
00:21:10.940 the life of a 24 year old oh i know i know you're trying to actually relate to that because i'm 35
00:21:16.440 and i feel the same fucking way so i was gonna say do you feel like a 25 year old oh i mean look i 0.85
00:21:21.360 um you know i got two kids man i got i got a wife so like i like but yeah i still can't believe they 0.98
00:21:26.660 let me leave the hospital with those fucking kids you know what i mean i'm joking no that's how i 0.95
00:21:31.540 feel the the point that he's he's referring to is uh science science has has started to prove that 0.99
00:21:38.820 those who suffer through a long bout of addiction uh stop developing at the age that they become
00:21:44.760 addicted to drugs because it takes over their entire life they don't develop mentally emotional
00:21:48.800 or in any kind of intelligent manner right and so i was addicted from the age of 18 to 26 daily
00:21:53.760 addiction to opiates it was the only thing in my life i didn't do school i didn't do family i didn't
00:21:57.680 do anything else besides use drugs using cell drugs is the only thing i cared about yep when
00:22:01.980 i turned 26 it was almost like i just turned 18 when i got clean you know what i'm saying so now
00:22:07.000 i'm 34 but a lot of times i feel like i'm 25 26 yeah um and so that said the one the one note i'll
00:22:14.040 say on it and i'm sure you'll say the same thing is everything i got out of that time i wouldn't
00:22:20.440 trade it for shit i wouldn't trade that that life experience that wisdom that i got from all those 0.99
00:22:26.720 mistakes i made the street smarts i took from that life i don't want anyone to go through it but damn 0.99
00:22:32.300 it's my basis for everything 0.94
00:22:35.380 I do now
00:22:36.080 but also button don't do drugs 0.97
00:22:39.220 don't ever fucking do drugs 0.97
00:22:40.520 it really is 0.99
00:22:41.740 y'all got lucky by the way
00:22:44.060 I really want to make that very clear
00:22:46.540 there are 99.999%
00:22:49.320 of people who are either not here anymore
00:22:51.200 or are the exact opposite
00:22:52.840 position of you
00:22:54.080 you're still obviously working and growing
00:22:56.420 soon you'll be a macro influencer
00:22:58.240 but I'm sure you too man
00:22:59.980 how many people I'm sure have you been
00:23:02.260 i'm sure you've been to funerals of people they don't stop yeah they don't stop i get i get calls
00:23:06.580 every week yeah about another od especially dependent where are you from miami okay upward
00:23:12.920 up we have we have a similar i think we're probably about in the same way florida's obviously got one
00:23:18.400 of the worst pill problems ever opiates was my drug of choice for a long time yeah oxycon yeah
00:23:23.720 but why do you still live in miami because we were just talking like every time we go it takes years
00:23:27.540 off our life you know um my my father's still down there my wife's parents are down there
00:23:32.680 makes it easier when you have kids yeah are you able to are you able to uh to have a cocktail
00:23:38.140 no i don't so you're completely sober yeah yeah yeah is there any way you can transfer that
00:23:42.280 knowledge to my friend mike well here's the thing right so like i think about it sometimes right so
00:23:45.840 like i just um like give you an example you know i've been you know in uh in my clean time i've
00:23:50.860 been to amsterdam for business i just got back from a vacation to italy with my wife where where'd
00:23:55.920 you go in italy yeah uh malfe coast uh greece um uh what else we went to i'm gonna butcher the
00:24:03.220 name but like bologna or whatever yeah that's right yeah you didn't go to florence no florence
00:24:08.780 is the best consider it on the planet but yeah what's what's so uh so so i was there and like
00:24:12.740 you see everyone having like a glass of wine right because like that's what you're supposed
00:24:15.500 to do out there and i thought to myself and i was sharing this with a buddy of mine i was thinking
00:24:20.440 to myself you know i mean i got like 14 years clean i have all these things that are that are
00:24:23.640 going for me and everything else and i remember like thinking about you know seeing someone having
00:24:29.060 like a glass of wine and they didn't finish it yeah and i was like it's still after all this
00:24:33.520 time dude with everything to lose i'm like why didn't they finish it you know like like we got
00:24:39.320 so crazy like we got a soldier down yeah yeah yeah why didn't you finish it yeah you know and 0.94
00:24:43.720 then i thought well shit you know i'll probably have some of that and then have to go rob a cvs 0.98
00:24:46.960 wow but that's and you say and you say wow but that's the path that it it goes a lot of times 0.99
00:24:53.000 You know, like you start real small.
00:24:54.860 I was very blessed, I guess, to get a couple of years clean.
00:25:00.220 And now I'm able to socialize and go.
00:25:02.280 I don't promote it.
00:25:03.200 I don't like it for anyone.
00:25:04.920 Sometimes I don't even like it for me.
00:25:06.340 But, you know, I'm able to go out and have drinks.
00:25:08.380 You think it's healthy?
00:25:08.920 You think that's healthy?
00:25:09.620 It's not my place.
00:25:10.380 Yeah, it's not.
00:25:10.840 You know, it's a personal journey.
00:25:11.920 I mean, it's your place to have an opinion.
00:25:13.460 I know that for me, it's not healthy.
00:25:15.080 I'm not him.
00:25:15.860 I don't know.
00:25:16.600 And by the way, I don't know the answer.
00:25:18.060 I'm just wondering.
00:25:19.120 Look, I know for me that it's not healthy.
00:25:21.300 because for me, when I think about having one,
00:25:22.860 it doesn't stop there in my head.
00:25:24.840 He can, he's pretty good.
00:25:25.900 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly.
00:25:27.040 So, you know, for the most part. 0.99
00:25:28.760 You know, so it's kind of like, why fuck with it, you know? 0.99
00:25:31.900 Yeah. 0.99
00:25:32.360 Okay, so, all right.
00:25:33.340 Yeah.
00:25:33.800 Here we go.
00:25:34.140 Back to 23.
00:25:35.540 Why did you get rich?
00:25:37.380 So what happens is, is that, so I ended up,
00:25:40.220 I ended up trying to figure out other stuff to do, man.
00:25:43.920 Like trying to figure out what I was interested in.
00:25:45.440 Because like you said, you know, you got to kind of grow up
00:25:48.140 and figure out what it is that you want to do.
00:25:50.700 and um you know i started uh you know my buddy and i were coming up with these ideas and we were
00:25:56.820 just being funny about it right so we thought well be funny to create like this website you
00:26:02.000 know and none of us had ever built a website before and we thought it'd be funny to create
00:26:05.080 this website where it was like um you know like pornhub meets like maxim magazine and like we
00:26:10.300 had this section penned out where it's going to be from like jew to tattoo as far as all these
00:26:15.320 like different formats right so we thought it'd be funny so like that night i went home and i had 0.71
00:26:20.040 this old fucking compact desktop computer in my room that like i hadn't turned on in forever 0.56
00:26:24.900 and um and i turned it on and you know i knew how to like download you know music or whatever so i 0.97
00:26:31.400 went ahead and i downloaded a um a copy of photoshop and i started and i started messing
00:26:37.400 with that and just the ability to like be creative you know and and the ability to you know just
00:26:44.300 mess around with like what was going to be this this website even though i had no idea what i was
00:26:48.700 doing like that process that night I kind of fell in love with it like I didn't sleep that night
00:26:53.480 you know like like I stayed up I stayed up I tried to figure out how to like make different
00:26:58.420 graphics on there and like that kind of triggered a lot of it that's not easy and I'm surprised did
00:27:03.480 you not have a creative outlet before that like you didn't know you like to paint no perhaps or
00:27:08.080 no I didn't he's on a bike or nothing nothing really wow how did that help you in your recovery
00:27:15.120 I mean, you know, look, I mean, I don't know how it helped me in my recovery, but it it helped me like look, the recovery is all part of it.
00:27:23.320 Right. But like it helped me. It helped me feel, you know, like it like like inspired, you know what I mean?
00:27:31.260 Like, I don't I don't I'm trying to think of the right word, you know, but it helped me feel it helped me feel inspired.
00:27:36.000 And that that feeling that night is what I ran with this entire time.
00:27:39.820 Was it that you needed to put the same energy you had in kind of that addictive nature to something productive and creative and tap into like, you know, I feel like the majority of people I hear that have addictions, just it's just you're misguiding that that energy.
00:27:58.880 I mean, that's true too, but look, I'm sure there's some element of that.
00:28:02.800 I can tell you today, like a hundred percent, I'm addicted to, you know, building the next
00:28:07.900 company or building the next deal or creating the next whatever.
00:28:11.320 Right.
00:28:13.060 For sure today, but then, you know, and even today, but like then really it was, there
00:28:18.680 was no money, there was no success.
00:28:20.080 There wasn't any of that stuff.
00:28:21.300 And none of that was front and center in my head.
00:28:24.000 It wasn't, you know, and then, so what I did was, and then I taught, you know, long story
00:28:28.020 short over the next year year and a half i basically locked myself in a room and taught
00:28:33.860 myself how to do like web design web development photoshop and like i you know at that time like
00:28:38.900 youtube was just kind of you know people were just putting uh like the tutorial videos on youtube so 0.69
00:28:44.400 you couldn't just search for that shit expert village i don't think that existed then dude
00:28:48.500 way back early early days well i was talking to uh evan the other day and we were talking about 0.96
00:28:55.940 tutorials and how when we were young there were some tutorials on how to do some stuff but now
00:29:01.340 you can find anything on youtube i remember what expert village was like the thing for how to's
00:29:07.000 like you know how to how to replace a muffler on a car yep um i remember trying to have to bounce
00:29:12.440 a video and premiere for the first time there was no videos on youtube yeah and like i that video
00:29:17.800 was like uh it had like a big black box around it i couldn't figure out how to make a 1080 video
00:29:23.420 it took me like literally weeks well because i mean i know for me the the word export and the
00:29:30.880 word file what does that mean makes no sense you have to learn the programming of a computer and
00:29:36.400 i didn't understand any of it and so yeah it's it's fucking hard especially like i'm really
00:29:41.560 impressed that you were able to not only learn photoshop but web design because i try to do the
00:29:45.120 same thing i gave up my first website ever was called evone it was everyone and everything evone
00:29:50.080 E-E-V-O-N-E
00:29:51.180 The first article
00:29:52.740 like I was
00:29:53.300 I was like
00:29:53.980 pretending to be a journalist
00:29:55.000 and I wrote about like
00:29:55.640 Britney Spears I think
00:29:56.480 Really?
00:29:57.080 E-vone yeah
00:29:57.620 How do I not know this?
00:29:59.680 That's incredible
00:30:00.440 I sat in my room
00:30:01.520 for like a week
00:30:02.220 and I was like
00:30:02.620 I'm gonna do it
00:30:03.360 I'm gonna be Richard Vimes
00:30:04.300 but it sounds like
00:30:05.340 you actually 0.99
00:30:05.840 fucking made it happen 0.99
00:30:06.900 I gave up 1.00
00:30:08.260 I gave up
00:30:08.900 Yeah
00:30:09.480 No I mean
00:30:10.460 I guess I kind of
00:30:11.020 E-voned the situation
00:30:12.280 Yeah
00:30:12.560 So
00:30:13.040 I probably have
00:30:15.660 No we have a satisfaction
00:30:16.940 Anyways
00:30:17.460 No so
00:30:18.160 So what happened was
00:30:19.480 is that I
00:30:20.060 I started my own little web design business,
00:30:22.600 and I had no idea what I was doing.
00:30:23.840 Most of the things that I've done that have been successful, 0.93
00:30:26.300 I had no fucking clue what I was doing. 0.99
00:30:28.120 You were faking it. 1.00
00:30:29.700 100%.
00:30:30.060 Was this after?
00:30:32.640 That's the best way to do it.
00:30:34.100 I mean, never mind.
00:30:36.260 We can't talk about it.
00:30:38.020 I'd like to.
00:30:38.800 Can you give me a hint?
00:30:39.700 No.
00:30:40.160 I mean, it's the kid in the house.
00:30:42.200 Oh, yeah.
00:30:42.700 The other one that we can't talk about.
00:30:44.600 Yes.
00:30:44.880 Oh, yeah.
00:30:45.200 Go ahead.
00:30:45.480 No, go ahead.
00:30:45.960 Were you, were you already out of college when all of this started?
00:30:50.960 I actually ended up dropping out of college. So a year into this,
00:30:53.980 I'm still going to school kind of. And then I get into a year of it.
00:30:58.020 And I'm just like, you know what? I love this, you know?
00:31:01.500 And I wasn't making that much money.
00:31:02.940 I had a couple of small clients for like a thousand bucks a month or
00:31:05.560 something. It wasn't a lot, whatever it was. And, um,
00:31:09.120 and I remember thinking to myself, like, this is it.
00:31:12.220 Like maybe it's not it as far as like web design or whatever, but like,
00:31:15.960 this being creative and building my own stuff like that is it got it yeah you know and uh and
00:31:21.680 i left school which was a really unpopular decision in my family yeah yeah the reason i
00:31:26.500 asked about school is because you said you went to a community college i did go into a community
00:31:29.880 college i went to a community college as well and i found that it offered a robust selection
00:31:37.680 of courses that lent themselves towards things i wanted to do and if i wanted to take them i
00:31:42.440 like i didn't know if i was even going to graduate and i didn't know if i really cared because what's
00:31:46.340 a what's a two-year liberal arts you know associate really worth but while i was there i took a
00:31:52.300 photoshop course and i started to take different courses in computer programs different computer
00:31:57.940 programs and i learned a lot dude and so like if you're at a community school and you have these
00:32:01.880 electives take like a take like a class that lends itself to yeah to like youtube or like
00:32:07.580 production or like video or whatever you actually want to do like use it for just in case you don't
00:32:12.600 use your degree learn some stuff that you probably will use if you don't who doesn't use their degree
00:32:17.600 man doesn't know how how old were you when you made your first million i was uh 28 okay so we're
00:32:28.140 fast forwarding a bit here yeah and then how was that like how did that happen i um i remember
00:32:34.220 i remember the year before i had made like 962 000 and i was pissed oh hell yeah because it was 0.53
00:32:42.140 right there yeah yeah and i was like i was like fuck yeah and um and i remember the year that i 0.53
00:32:48.200 um the first year that i did it was a year after i got married and i was like okay nice and ever 0.83
00:32:53.700 and since then it's been a it's just it's come a lot easier right so like getting to that first
00:32:58.940 million was was tough but was that through one of the one of the domains you have because you have
00:33:03.560 a lot of, a lot of domains. So, so what I do now is I market and, um, and advertise and create
00:33:10.880 awareness for a lot of publicly traded companies, especially those in the, in the cannabis and the
00:33:14.680 marijuana space. We own a marijuana stocks.com and some other websites. And you know, the thing
00:33:21.000 is, is that like that that's become like the, the, you know, like all of that business has
00:33:28.020 become like the bread and butter of what has really taken, you know, taken off and allowed
00:33:32.020 me to like kind of live the life that i live today but from that we've we've been able to
00:33:36.820 spawn out a lot of other things that you know allow us to continue to build uh as well yeah
00:33:43.740 and you're doing one of those currently right or setting up for it in the podcast yeah because you
00:33:48.280 just started a podcast of your own yep so by the way congrats i hope you get more sponsors than we
00:33:53.040 do i'm sure i'm sure you guys will do just fine what's it called entrepreneur yeah so it's uh
00:33:58.800 it's called entrepreneur. And, uh, the premise of it is, is that we want to have on, it's, uh,
00:34:03.340 uh, we want to have like in-depth conversation with, uh, entrepreneurs and people that are up
00:34:07.260 and coming influencers, celebrities, and regular people, man, just people that are, you know,
00:34:12.760 kind of like get the idea of where they're coming from, what struggles they're going through and
00:34:17.520 where, where they are in their journey and how they made it to the other side.
00:34:21.260 And, you know, the, you know, the goal is to, is to do it in a way that people can find humor in
00:34:25.200 and you know hopefully be inspired by is is that uh it's guest-based it will be yeah are you sure
00:34:30.160 let me ask you this are you sure that you want to come in the podcast space and compete with the
00:34:34.680 number one podcast in the world that being impossible of course no i mean look i understand
00:34:40.960 he just said he had to warn you i do want to let you know okay so entrepreneurs so you want if you
00:34:47.320 listen to your podcast what is it where you get rich all of a sudden you know how because my
00:34:51.680 question is, will it get redundant? How many stories are, if you boil it down, essentially
00:34:58.860 the same story about like rags to riches or is that, can you find those kernels of wisdom in
00:35:04.800 each one that may provide some sort of different value for the listener? So I think what's important
00:35:10.200 is, is that it doesn't just become about how to make money. Right. Because that wasn't my
00:35:15.640 experience. My experience wasn't, I'm going to wake up one day and just make money. Right.
00:35:20.580 my experience was is that i found something that i loved and i ran with it and i continue to build
00:35:25.820 it out so i think that there of course will be episodes where we talk to people that have a lot
00:35:31.380 of money and that are successful and there will also be people that we talk to in conversations
00:35:34.880 that we have about finding what it is that you love to do man what gives your life purpose yeah
00:35:40.060 you know what i mean like like i can tell you for me personally i haven't felt like i've gone to
00:35:44.040 work in many years yeah same bro yeah what gives your life purpose wow yeah that's it it's deep
00:35:52.060 that's a deep question it's a deep question what gives you your life purpose i would say
00:35:57.660 just seeing other people find their purpose put them in the game coach he's our coach he's like
00:36:05.980 when i when i see someone become passionate about something that they do and i'm able to like help
00:36:10.880 get them to that point yo that fuels me who have you helped get to that point thus far anyone
00:36:16.300 yeah i would say quite a few people who like i i at content i put out like what i stand for with
00:36:23.360 my brand like i get dms all the time for people that are getting into triathlons and that gets
00:36:28.040 you that gets you going yeah keeps you going keeps me going for sure what about you mike what's your
00:36:31.980 life purpose i like uh i like laughter that's a good thing i like people it's great i like people
00:36:39.380 to exhibit laughter as well yeah man you're so good at that and also i like randomness and i
00:36:46.260 like random things that make people laugh you wouldn't expect me to talk about chocolate fudge
00:36:51.460 right now would you but i bet you like it i bet you two out of three people on the podcast laugh
00:36:55.500 right now fall three he was right i mean it's just like a gift for four there's oh i didn't
00:37:02.000 laugh at my own joke that's good question for you yes sir well i'm in this relaxed fudge state
00:37:07.280 let's talk more there is a subset of people that watch this show okay that are interested in
00:37:15.960 business correct so that's my background okay i just happen to be very funny but i also am a brand 0.96
00:37:22.900 and digital media expert at the highest level speak on panels type shit do you uh so let me
00:37:30.520 get what you did straight really quick you built distribution platforms you built websites and now 0.97
00:37:35.920 you serve programmatic ads for companies on those sites. Is that what you're doing or?
00:37:40.600 Yeah. So we serve programmatic ads for companies on those sites. We also,
00:37:44.240 um, you know, we build up retargeting pools and have different newsletters. Um, we put together
00:37:49.860 complete branded decks and, um, you know, investor relations kits, uh, you know, everything from A
00:37:57.140 to Z. And, and so you do this, uh, you do this, the majority in the weed industry for marijuana,
00:38:03.180 but also for other brands for every single industry so i've done stuff in precious metals
00:38:08.180 i've done stuff in tech uh cannabis uh biotechnology all of it is there still value
00:38:15.160 in banner ads what's a banner ad for those if you go on his website marijuanamarket.com
00:38:23.380 marijuanastocks.com and all marijuanastocks.com and you see a little banner at the top right do
00:38:28.780 you ever look at the banner you just say oh shit it's a banner i do i do you look at the
00:38:33.060 most people do not there's a thing called banner blindness in the digital media space really yeah 0.98
00:38:38.360 whoa people are have trained their brains to completely ignore banners so desensitized wait
00:38:43.560 but also also if it's a if you got cookied and it's a brand you like like how could you ignore
00:38:47.980 like if the maverick logo pops up and someone from the low gang seat like they're not it's
00:38:51.840 gonna catch their eye what's called retargeting right so that's where his direct response is
00:38:55.700 called so that's where his retargeting there was already an interest okay they're just seeing it
00:39:00.180 and it's validating that interest in other places.
00:39:02.640 Are you able to sell advertising?
00:39:04.860 We do more native advertising.
00:39:06.720 Oh, you do a lot of native articles?
00:39:08.740 Yeah, a lot of advertorials, different native articles.
00:39:11.200 Infographics?
00:39:12.340 Yeah, when the time calls for it.
00:39:14.100 Do you believe in infographics?
00:39:15.600 I'm not asking selfishly because we're working.
00:39:17.500 We just paid $50,000.
00:39:18.720 I'll tell you what, actually.
00:39:19.680 So we spend almost seven figures a month on marketing, right?
00:39:24.700 Definitely you.
00:39:26.140 I'm going to apologize for that one, man.
00:39:28.200 Seven figures, you say?
00:39:29.340 want to reroute any of that over here of other of brand money brand money and i can tell you that
00:39:37.880 um we've you know look the i'm sure you've seen it too man you just said it the market right now
00:39:43.620 for people that are advertising online it's extremely saturated right so everyone's doing
00:39:47.760 what they you know the hot word is like clicks right like everyone's doing clicks and most
00:39:51.740 people don't know what that means or how to do it properly and what we're seeing is that we thought
00:39:56.900 well the way to maybe stand out would be to make where they're going more interactive or pop out
00:40:03.320 more maybe that's the way to do it because there's only so much you can do you know with a banner ad
00:40:08.780 or anything else so native so that's where native comes so we thought so we did a you know we did a
00:40:13.380 split test which is which means that like you you know see what one work right what one works as
00:40:18.300 opposed to another and i thought for sure that the infographic when someone hits it would capture
00:40:24.700 someone's attention they'd stay longer right there'd be less of a bounce rate and um and i was
00:40:29.120 wrong so one last question on this because i don't want to i don't know if logan cares about any of
00:40:34.860 this but i know there are some business people out there they're always in the comments like we love
00:40:37.980 what you talk about business if you were a small brand because we do have some small brands that
00:40:42.000 watch the show like clothing brands um that have like you know 10k on instagram or like these new
00:40:47.180 up-and-comers what do you think the core metric they should be concerned with when it comes to
00:40:53.080 running digital ads is it ctr click-through rate cpc cost per click like what is what is the or
00:40:58.760 awareness just based on cost per thousand impressions like what's it or does or does
00:41:03.180 it vary well i think i think first and foremost for any business that's out there and they're
00:41:07.160 spending money on marketing their brand or whatever before you spend a dollar on what it
00:41:11.600 is that you're doing because everyone's like oh i want to get followers well why why do you want
00:41:15.300 to get you can monetize followers i mean that that should be the answer but the monetization
00:41:19.200 of the follower means that you have some form of a goal you know some form of an acquisition in mind
00:41:24.880 for that follower or for that person looking at your thing or whatever it is your widget your
00:41:29.920 podcast whatever you you want them to take some sort of an action from that so what i you know
00:41:35.420 my advice would be find out what your acquisition is you know find out what is going to back out
00:41:40.700 for me for you and work your way backwards so then you can determine well this is a good return
00:41:47.600 on investment for me if i spent like for example i have uh you know i've sold a good amount of
00:41:52.300 digital products online if you sell a product for 500 bucks and it cost me 120 to get someone
00:41:57.640 in the door then like that's not that's not terrible right yeah that's a great right margin
00:42:01.560 okay so so so for me that's based on a cpa basis for other times where i'm creating you know when
00:42:07.960 people are focused on awareness for me i'm looking at bounce rate you know i yeah so for me i'm like
00:42:14.680 i don't care if they sign up quality quality exactly yeah and it all comes down to the content
00:42:18.920 man your content has to be content is you know look when i first started in this business in
00:42:24.020 online marketing and all that content was king then and it's king now yeah you know and it always
00:42:29.300 will be you can try any little trick you want at the end of the day you have to provide value to
00:42:33.600 whoever's on the other end of that are you overseeing uh the the content creation when it
00:42:39.300 come see your businesses like are you are you a touch point at least yeah yeah i am for for some
00:42:45.860 for i would say about 80 percent of it now got it you know we you know we have a lot of different
00:42:50.020 brands that we've you know gone out with and and we have a really good staff in-house that that we
00:42:56.080 use to how many employees we have about 15 employees right now and then about 16 different
00:43:00.520 freelancers out there so i i try and put my hand on as much as i can but like we're also expanding
00:43:06.420 so like we just uh we just opened up an office in hong kong oh wow congrats it's expensive out
00:43:12.060 there how much was that that cost it was the most expensive real estate in the world yeah i mean i
00:43:16.500 didn't buy it i rented it okay yeah it's still the most expensive right it was still it was not
00:43:21.060 cheap and it's not a very big office okay but it was it was more expensive um there's a lot of
00:43:27.880 really great opportunity in the hong kong uh stock market right are you getting into foreign stock
00:43:33.060 markets or just chinese yeah no i mean we're we're delving in a little bit my diet going into
00:43:38.880 some secrecy here we're not ready yet i see some hesitancy so you're give me involved
00:43:45.680 that's all right i don't need your money so you work as give me your money uh how much weed do
00:43:52.760 you smoke i don't dude no at all bro what he just talked about being sober some some everybody's
00:43:59.380 is different yeah but did you not just hear here a little brain fart it's been a long day
00:44:05.000 not gonna catch me slipping yeah he was testing it was a test it was very strategic no no it was
00:44:13.340 good it was good mistake yeah no i knew it which is why so so you so you run uh basically act as
00:44:20.380 an agency to to brands correct in the weed space and other spaces and then you you have a market
00:44:24.780 touch point as well or you bring back uh brands public or you have some sort of no no so the
00:44:28.740 brands are already public they come to us and they say um we're looking to increase awareness
00:44:32.900 we want to market and advertise so we take in their story and a lot of them are startup
00:44:39.060 um you know some of them um you know maybe right in the middle and we work with them you know and
00:44:45.000 we try and work with them long term and you know for long term for us is anywhere between i don't
00:44:49.140 know six months and a year how did you here's a i try to keep bringing it back to the audience
00:44:54.440 much possible how did you get here and the the main question i would ask you is who was the first
00:44:59.400 client because that's always the most exciting one how did you make that step 100 and this is
00:45:04.480 actually a funny story so i don't know about funny but you know it's probably a story it's it is
00:45:09.280 definitely 100 it's a story that's good we'll start there yeah all right so i could add funny
00:45:14.400 in if you want at some point right no you are fudge funny so we're good that's true so um
00:45:20.640 no so what it was is that i started the web design stuff and then i was working for a dental office
00:45:25.560 i was doing like their website and um they had tried a bunch of different marketing tactics and
00:45:30.240 this is when like social media marketing was like just starting to really blow up so i convinced
00:45:34.300 them to give me a little extra money to do marketing on twitter and facebook like at the
00:45:38.580 beginning and i ended up doing uh two hundred thousand dollars in organic patient referrals
00:45:43.880 for them without them having to spend any money on um like paid at just organic organic posting
00:45:51.080 so i got them like on the first page of google for everything organically yeah this is back when
00:45:56.960 these companies didn't charge like tons of money no way you couldn't do that today with the same
00:46:02.040 strategy could you or could you i mean i do it for my own stuff today i don't do it for other
00:46:06.220 companies today got it yeah yeah i was just gonna say in order to get that done now that's that's
00:46:12.400 probably what the majority of your freelance is is it article writing for seo purposes not just
00:46:16.500 for seo purposes but it i mean the a lot of the seo stuff i still want to put my hand on because
00:46:21.100 there's so many things changing in that landscape and the littlest mistake or even the the smallest 0.97
00:46:27.720 inference that you're doing something wrong you know google doesn't give a shit man they'll just 0.57
00:46:31.560 penalize you have an seo person in house i have several yeah seo stands for search engine 0.93
00:46:36.220 optimization there you go there you go how did you track they did through a crm oh the dental
00:46:44.100 office had a crm yeah no the guy that read so it was a it was a oh hold on we got some beef here
00:46:49.900 well because i called you out what's good man you guys let's handle this handle this no i mean
00:46:56.100 we're gonna do it we're gonna do it well you so who had said that seo doesn't stand for search
00:47:00.060 You gon' make me act up.
00:47:02.780 Sit down.
00:47:03.720 Lucky you are.
00:47:05.440 Who said that SEO does not stand for search?
00:47:07.620 Spencer did.
00:47:08.360 No, I know he, in a certain way, knows it does.
00:47:12.200 But at the same time, what do you think it stands for?
00:47:14.320 Spencer did Vima.
00:47:15.160 Spencer did Vima, and that's why he's flawed.
00:47:17.660 Spencer did Vima.
00:47:18.500 He sold.
00:47:18.960 If you don't know what Vima is, oh, you know.
00:47:21.700 Remember that one kid at your high school would go around and be like,
00:47:24.160 I have this drink.
00:47:25.380 Here, sign up under me, and you can sell the drink, too.
00:47:27.580 and if you sell enough, you can get a Mercedes
00:47:29.640 with Vima. Did anyone get the
00:47:31.780 Mercedes? I met a person
00:47:33.860 who got the Mercedes and actually
00:47:35.580 introduced Spencer to Jake
00:47:37.880 and then Spencer introduced to me, so
00:47:39.520 shout out Christian Sager, but also 0.99
00:47:41.540 the Mercedes was fucking whack. 0.99
00:47:43.880 Oh, was it awesome? 0.99
00:47:45.720 There was a Vima, or
00:47:47.280 what was it? It was Vima Verve, a Verve
00:47:49.600 like a watermark on the side of, by the way,
00:47:51.760 the cheapest version of the Mercedes.
00:47:53.860 And I remember seeing it, I was like,
00:47:56.100 it's all a facade.
00:47:57.580 Even if you get the Mercedes, it's a pyramid scheme.
00:48:00.480 Ready for this?
00:48:01.160 No, it's not a pyramid scheme.
00:48:02.340 Even our cameraman is from the old Vima squad.
00:48:05.080 They're all from the old Vima squad.
00:48:06.900 I've never heard of this.
00:48:07.620 It's a network.
00:48:08.200 Well, I'm glad you did it.
00:48:09.520 You ever heard of Bernie Madoff?
00:48:11.100 Yeah.
00:48:11.640 Imagine he was an energy drink. 1.00
00:48:13.080 That's fucked up. 1.00
00:48:13.980 It's fucked up. 1.00
00:48:14.640 That's not an energy drink you want to drink. 0.99
00:48:16.600 You explained to me, and I'm going to tie this together.
00:48:21.260 You explained to me you're doing some sort of workshop, correct?
00:48:23.760 uh or you do some sort of business uh seminar conference learn how to be a business person
00:48:30.120 yeah we're so we're developing that product now is what we're doing and we tried it out on uh
00:48:34.520 three different uh three different individuals and um and it and you know look one of one of
00:48:40.480 the individuals thought that you could just you know like like a lot of people i feel think that
00:48:45.660 you can just pay something and have a business overnight yes and that's and that's what the most
00:48:50.660 the majority of people think and and and not to i mean ty lopez was a guest on the show but are you
00:48:55.980 familiar with the ty lopez business i i sometimes fear when you sign up for like a ty lopez thing
00:49:00.560 and we asked him i'm like is this a scam and he goes what you're probably gonna say is as long
00:49:04.720 as you put in the work it it i mean it could work yeah no no look i i think that i think it depends
00:49:11.480 on on what you're interested in and what and what people uh and and the effort but that's true for
00:49:16.860 anything you know if you have a hobby or something you're interested in or something you're going to
00:49:20.480 school for whatever it's it that you have to want to put in the work you know you can't I mean
00:49:26.600 obviously man like you probably know better than anyone you didn't just show up here and have a
00:49:29.700 podcast you know you had you had to put in the work I'm putting so so just because somebody is
00:49:34.580 willing to teach you something or put a product on the table that has some tool to help you get 0.88
00:49:40.500 into something new or something else if you don't put the work in that's fucking on you yeah we had 0.90
00:49:45.520 we had some kid uh show up actually it's happened twice in the past couple weeks this kid showed up 0.94
00:49:50.300 somewhere where we were at and he came up to me he's like i gotta talk to you and logan i gotta
00:49:55.220 talk to you i want to let you know you you guys have really really inspired me you have inspired
00:50:01.660 me so much you have given me a dream and i've had this dream now for the past six months it's great
00:50:08.360 it's a great dream and i said you gonna do anything or what what what have you what steps
00:50:15.500 have you taken so far to accomplish that dream and i said for example his dream by the way was
00:50:21.740 to become a youtuber and i said okay where's your camera can you imagine if you had exercised that
00:50:29.500 dream and when you came up to me and logan you were able to say logan mike what's up you guys
00:50:34.440 inspired me you just got a video on youtube with 250 000 views because me and logan are in it
00:50:39.580 where's your camera and he's like well i uh the dream so far has been really good but 0.98
00:50:44.580 the camera hasn't been part of the dream i'm like bro leave right now go get a fucking 0.99
00:50:49.980 i'm like leave right now go get a fucking camera i'll even i'll even let you hit me 0.98
00:50:56.020 up on instagram and come meet me again with the camera in a few hours yeah mike really 0.96
00:50:59.760 try to help him out i always do i'm gonna take it a step further because the first camera that
00:51:05.580 i ever shot on was a butthole was it a flip compared to this oh yeah oh yeah that's true
00:51:12.780 oh my god 60 frames like even and it texts anybody it accesses the internet you can ask
00:51:20.220 any question and have it answered like if you are complaining about getting started today
00:51:26.320 do you know what my first do you know what my first camera was it was a kit it was a tripod
00:51:32.940 like Andre's using
00:51:33.920 and then it was a box
00:51:35.060 with a hood
00:51:35.620 you had to put your head under it
00:51:36.520 and turn a crank 1.00
00:51:37.260 shut the fuck up 1.00
00:51:38.200 you're lying 1.00
00:51:38.580 and it went like this
00:51:40.180 I think he's making a joke
00:51:41.000 it went like this
00:51:41.480 like the one in King Kong
00:51:43.500 right
00:51:43.920 this is like
00:51:44.820 this is from the early 1900s
00:51:46.760 yeah that's not accurate
00:51:47.640 unless
00:51:48.640 do we know Mike's 34
00:51:52.140 I could be 76
00:51:53.780 340
00:51:54.920 I'm just glad that I'm not
00:51:56.420 the only one in my 30s
00:51:57.420 oh it's been happening
00:51:58.960 more and more often
00:51:59.820 because to be honest with you
00:52:01.120 with the exception of these two
00:52:02.560 a lot of times it takes a few years before you got a really cool story to tell and so like a lot
00:52:07.640 of people we've been having on now are like 30 plus these two are the exceptions because 0.88
00:52:11.200 fucking this dude's a classic vegan just man all of a sudden and this guy over here is just a 0.94
00:52:17.560 freaking controversial youtuber yeah look at him so controversial i got a question when i start 0.99
00:52:22.920 making guap or when somebody let's just say i'm chilling in illinois and i start making some guap
00:52:28.500 what do i do do i save what do i do with my money oh that's a really good question go to 0.74
00:52:34.680 pennysocks.com found it by me adam haven't what's what's fucked up is that i actually 0.67
00:52:41.420 own that domain right no i know i know that's why i use the example i know i know that but 0.80
00:52:46.440 so um penny stocks jordan belford so i got started yeah yeah but you know hopefully not
00:52:51.420 the same ending right so believe it or not things are pretty good no and god bless man
00:52:56.640 did you see his episode with us god bless but uh yeah no i i was there's like a whole part in
00:53:01.380 there i kind of want to fast you know skip yeah for sure so it's pretty rare yeah yeah yeah so
00:53:05.940 far so good you know been in the business 12 years so far so good yeah um that's a good question
00:53:12.180 right so so here's what happened at the beginning when i started to make some money right some money
00:53:18.760 because when i first you know when i first started like my wife co-signed my first car
00:53:23.400 you know and like i had like no credit and all that stuff and i you know all those things have
00:53:27.840 built up over time but when i started to make some money you know what's the first thing you
00:53:33.140 do when you start to get a little bit of money you buy a hundred a what g-wagon nah i'm not a 1.00
00:53:38.620 g-wagon guy yeah i'm sorry um you buy shit you buy shit bro i went fucking nuts with the cars 0.99
00:53:46.980 anything what'd you get what'd you get too much no what'd you get a lot like what name one of 0.99
00:53:53.620 the coolest one you got all right one of the coolest the coolest one that i have now
00:53:57.500 is if you're a porsche guy i am okay so i have i have uh i think it's number 314 of 500
00:54:05.260 um for the 911 turbo s exclusive spider no the exclusive i don't so when the when the 918 came
00:54:14.420 out there was a bunch of like uh like other cars that came out with it so yeah it's that gold one
00:54:19.340 right there you and oh my god yeah how much was this car uh too much 330 when i got it
00:54:27.100 what's it valued at now 360 or something it went up but mine is wrapped in like a black satin wrap 0.99
00:54:34.080 wow with like a custom titanium exhaust i went nuts with it you just drive that shit down collins 0.76
00:54:38.780 or what no no i said they sit in my they all sit in my garage yeah cars aren't the best investment 0.98
00:54:44.120 no it's not good right so like but that's when i first started right and like to this day i'm still
00:54:48.500 kind of fucked up with it like i just um what else did i got um i've had like a bunch of 911
00:54:53.800 turbo s's i've had an aventador i just traded the aventador for the ferrari if you need me to whip 0.87
00:55:00.320 it uh yeah spencer can drive well yeah yeah you're done buying cars or probably not no no i think one
00:55:08.760 one piece of advice that and i'm sure you'll recognize this that could go out to someone who
00:55:13.520 has started to make a little bit of money right like i think some of the people watching our show
00:55:17.580 may have just made their first 50 60 grand you know what i'm saying the the wisest advice from
00:55:23.760 somebody like buffett or some like in that level would say is get rid of any high interest debt you
00:55:30.380 have before you save any money i mean like yes you want a small nest egg to rest on but if you
00:55:35.560 are saving all your money and you have 18 apr on your interest on your credit cards and you're
00:55:40.500 spending all that in interest you have to pay all that debt off before you're saving all your money
00:55:45.720 well so here's the thing with the with the car thing just going back for one second what i
00:55:49.520 the way i looked at it right was that you know i used to buy so i've always loved cars man you 0.58
00:55:55.800 know um and i used to buy 500 cars off craigslist you know until they would fucking die then i used
00:56:02.120 to like uh put the screwdriver in the car to turn it on we had one that we called the rim rider 0.54
00:56:06.280 because it would just bounce up and down like a basketball um and i always thought to myself like
00:56:10.760 if i ever fucking did well man like i'd want to you know get a couple nice cars right that was
00:56:14.640 just my thing but when i first started to buy them i thought to myself like like i kind of use 0.89
00:56:21.380 it as a motivator so like you know i got it and then i and then i was like all right i'm gonna
00:56:25.720 work twice as hard to make sure that i continue to earn it yes in in a roundabout way i i would
00:56:32.500 i think i think when i got the g-wagon i had like a pretty solid amount of money to buy it's like a
00:56:39.420 three hundred thousand dollar i had i had a i was definitely like safe and stable but it was
00:56:44.360 my business managers said straight up like you should not buy this car because you know they're
00:56:48.420 being safe and conservative you should not buy this car it's not a great investment um but it 0.98
00:56:54.320 lit a fire under my ass because now i wasn't safe anymore right after i spent it i was like i was 0.95
00:56:58.580 like okay like i do gotta work a little harder to to make sure i i don't lose all my money and to be 0.98
00:57:04.080 able to put gas in it well you know what you know yeah it's like 120 yeah it's super expensive it's
00:57:09.200 crazy you know you know what's worse than feeling um than feeling like uneasy or whatever is feeling
00:57:14.460 safe bro oh feeling safe feeling safe sucks man i get my most anxious when i feel like oh man i 0.55
00:57:21.440 can just coast yep because that that's so i was on that way for a little bit now i'm back in this 0.97
00:57:27.140 shit do you think what's your youtube the people that say oh i'm gonna wait to do that until i'm 0.95
00:57:34.800 safe and comfortable is that a mental trap for people so you know i mean it depends you know 0.99
00:57:42.060 for me you know look it was easy for me to to take certain risks man like i didn't you know
00:57:47.300 at the time i wasn't married like i would you know we were engaged or whatever but like we had no kids
00:57:51.640 like so if i failed i wasn't going to be any worse than i heard he was yeah true you know what i mean
00:57:56.900 so like if but if you have like a family and kids and and responsibilities and you're like oh i just 1.00
00:58:01.740 made a little bit of money let me go buy a hundred thousand dollar car you're kind of an asshole 0.99
00:58:05.040 yeah you know um you know here's what i would say do you know spend your money on what you know on 1.00
00:58:14.300 on the things that you want because you work for it and you can't fucking take it with you 0.76
00:58:18.040 you know but don't be so financially irresponsible that if the world blew up tomorrow you'd be 1.00
00:58:24.220 fucked yeah yeah find the balance hey this is a this could be a stupid question i don't know 1.00
00:58:30.660 i was thinking about it in the shower let her rip yeah like if i make a million dollars 0.99
00:58:34.960 and uh obviously i have to pay taxes on it let's say let's say half a million for sake of math
00:58:41.100 i pay half a million dollars worth of taxes if i invest a hundred thousand of that into a company
00:58:48.300 is that considered a write-off or do i have to no no that's like that's after taxes one hundred
00:58:54.560 thousand dollars out of my pocket yeah so your money that you're putting in and depending and
00:58:58.420 actually depending on how long and i'm not an accountant right but depending on how long you
00:59:01.500 leave it in that investment you either pay short-term or long-term capital gains on it
00:59:05.940 which is massive it's like 34 so like anything that you invest in you want to leave it there
00:59:10.820 for like it's just my experience i leave it there as long as possible really okay because long-term
00:59:14.500 gains attacks substantially less short-term short-term gains are like no i i told you this
00:59:19.900 before we started the podcast i um something about business even some of the stuff you were
00:59:25.000 talking about in this podcast like 10 of it i'm not gonna lie i it's almost like you're speaking
00:59:28.600 another language which is odd for me because i'm a smart kid and i know it but business specifically
00:59:33.740 one one thing i like that i think is interesting is that to think about is like people's for me
00:59:41.420 like i was always like i can't wait to make a hundred thousand dollars yeah i was like i'm so
00:59:44.720 excited about that and so something to think about about the the investment number you just
00:59:51.840 uses is if you could ever get a million dollars into an investment plan and expect to take a
00:59:57.920 pretty moderate return on it let's call it 10 annual that i know that's that's actually that's
01:00:03.720 slightly aggressive but i think i think it's doable with the right with the right people right
01:00:07.780 you can potentially make a hundred thousand dollars a year for the rest of your life
01:00:13.720 off that million dollars potentially potentially yeah you'll have bad years but you'll have good
01:00:19.340 years i mean yeah eight to ten percent is not unheard of right no but but normally people are
01:00:24.580 making that money when they're putting in a lot more right yeah um but i mean look it depends you
01:00:30.140 know some people put their money in like a like an interest uh you know a high interest account
01:00:34.600 that gives you back that kind of return right whatever um you know for me i've always taken a
01:00:40.560 lot of the money that i've invested like i've put it into real estate recently um you know like i
01:00:45.420 have uh two homes in miami um rent stuff out or not yet i'm still trying to make my peace with
01:00:52.580 the fact that someone else would live there so i'm like back and forth between like you know i
01:00:56.500 fix it up i'm thinking about selling it but it's just kind of sitting there for sale right now i
01:01:00.400 got i got a chick living in my house right now back in connecticut nice shout out shout out emily
01:01:05.460 yeah every day right on time every single day you're me i don't even ask her i just get a
01:01:09.820 first of the month i get a venmo that's fantastic send it right over to the bank to pay the mortgage
01:01:13.800 taxes suck dude yeah bro you're telling me so he knows all about that and you know what and 1.00
01:01:19.960 there's and honestly like you have two choices you either you either pay it or get fucked 1.00
01:01:23.260 and trust me 0.99
01:01:25.660 my mom taught me at a young age
01:01:27.740 FBI you could finagle
01:01:30.060 with sometimes you could even mess with

01:04:04.440 Yeah, yes, exactly. Yes, I understand.
01:04:06.220 It doesn't need to be said. No, I'm not going to say it. That's why
01:04:08.260 I didn't say it. But do you think you have to cut your fingernails?

01:04:46.400 I get it.
01:04:46.940 I got some trimmers if you need them.
01:04:48.320 So do I.
01:04:48.960 Hey, it's ironic that you're sober and you own Marijuana Stocks.com.
01:04:52.480 Yeah.
01:04:53.900 Yeah, I know.
01:04:54.740 How did that come about?
01:04:57.580 I just feel cooler with the headphones on.
01:04:59.340 I know, and you sound cooler.
01:05:00.400 I get hot.
01:05:01.260 My ears, bro, can only stand a certain temperature.
01:05:03.680 Sex appeal went through the roof.
01:05:05.220 No, so look, I feel like I'm kind of an opportunist, right?
01:05:07.640 So like I saw, um, we were getting until in 2014, we were getting a lot that that's kind
01:05:13.240 of when this whole like thing, this craze happened with like cannabis companies and
01:05:16.800 like, it was just becoming like medically legal.
01:05:18.560 And so we were getting a lot of public companies that were coming to us at that time and saying
01:05:24.040 like, Oh, like we, we want to go ahead and, and market with you.
01:05:27.640 And there was just like this crazy influx.
01:05:30.640 And at the time we had never really, we hadn't like made a huge investment back in the business.
01:05:36.040 And I was like, you know what?
01:05:37.640 We need to go out there and get a premium domain and build a brand around it.
01:05:43.280 Did you pay extra for the domain?
01:05:45.880 I did.
01:05:46.340 How much?
01:05:46.760 I ended up paying $75,000 for the domain, the website.
01:05:51.520 It came with the Twitter, the Facebook, everything that had the vanity URL.
01:05:55.140 Which site was it?
01:05:56.480 MarijuanaStocks.com.
01:05:57.360 Dude, the guy didn't know what he had.
01:05:59.240 It came with 10,000 double opt-in subscribers.
01:06:02.380 The SEO placement already done.
01:06:05.800 So it was on the first page for everything.
01:06:07.640 at that time it was so popular it was getting like 30 40 000 hits a day and for that niche
01:06:12.880 of a site that's big that's massive you know so what so what is he kicking himself was he was he
01:06:18.260 high i don't even know dude to this day i made 75k bro i could buy with that this dude when made
01:06:25.340 75 million in the next six months bro to this day i don't even know his real name his name was just
01:06:30.220 roots that's what he called himself it was really tommy chong dude i just i literally i just remember
01:06:35.660 like i i sent some wires like an escrow account and then we got all the stuff that's that's a
01:06:40.680 way that's a massive home run and penny stocks i like these stories how do you get penny stocks
01:06:45.460 dot com that's a big one so i tracked so you know that was always like because look we we try and
01:06:50.360 get a lot of leads uh online from from that type of stuff so we've had um you know free penny stock
01:06:55.740 alerts.com like all these other older domains that we don't have anymore whatever and i thought
01:07:00.180 like that was always the holy grail of like domains for that niche so we so i go ahead and i i've
01:07:07.060 bought a couple of higher-end domains and i work with a domain broker and and i said i go
01:07:11.500 um we were talking about potentially me buying stockmarket.com right which like i'm still like
01:07:17.860 entertaining that conversation you know what the price tag is i do what is it um it's north of 5
01:07:23.560 million yeah um so i'm so we're still like negotiating that conversation but like i don't
01:07:28.340 think that it's necessarily worth that much but whatever so um so i said i go what else do you
01:07:34.700 what other higher quality domains do you have access to so he came back with a couple and then
01:07:38.560 he's like oh we have penny stocks.com and i was like that one you know um and yeah so i he put
01:07:44.980 me in touch with the owner and the owner and i um worked out uh worked out a deal with the owner
01:07:50.220 timothy sykes no no no no damn have you ever what's uh the highest level of schmoozing you've

01:08:58.160 Oh, no. We all did.

01:09:04.960 He is literally
01:09:06.460 550 steps
01:09:09.580 ahead of whatever you're going to say next to him.
01:09:11.320 The dude is a strategic mastermind.
01:09:14.060 I've been told that.
01:09:15.100 I compare him to Megamind
