00:01:56.020
hey i'm extremely depressed uh daily um thinking about taking permanent steps to a temporary solution
00:02:03.960
sort of thoughts if you guys can read between the lines i have to watch my language here
00:02:07.840
my wife has become a psycho and doesn't understand reality i have supported her but also stood my
00:02:14.900
ground on a few things bottom line is she won't sleep with me she won't discuss it she has zero
00:02:21.140
drive she's a vegan and if i ever think of bringing any of these issues up she'll literally kick me out
00:02:26.460
and take away my kid this is not typical in any sense of any woman i've ever met and been with and
00:02:35.020
we are married i'm trying to do this for my family i wasn't going to message you but my i'm going to skip
00:02:39.280
that part uh somebody referred him over to me i think she obviously has a mental issue for real
00:02:45.120
and there's no way i would be able to bring that up i just don't know what to do anymore i'm basically
00:02:49.140
completely out of motivation and i only see one way out uh basically we got married recently she turned
00:02:56.460
vegan had a kid after that uh it's been a nightmare she also put on weight uh will not do any type of
00:03:08.480
workouts okay so dude is married and in a very depressed state uh the kid is small so i'm missing
00:03:19.780
some information here so i'm going to give you something to start with at least something to begin
00:03:23.380
with generally speaking guys things like this are deserved of booking a one-on-one coaching call
00:03:29.500
um let me grab the banner so you guys know where to find me for that i don't put these up very much
00:03:35.100
anymore where are they it's here uh you can also request a video by going to entrepreneursandcars.com
00:03:41.820
forward slash request and i can do the topic on it you can give me some more insight on it but
00:03:46.040
uh with what you've given me here you're married child is small she's pulled the pin on the fact
00:03:53.260
grenade and become large uh doesn't want to hear anything from you and is using sex as a bargaining
00:03:58.980
position um this is the starting point for this is what ryan stone would use uh typically is f you
00:04:07.860
or f me or f you you know it's as simple as that that's a starting point you've of course got to be
00:04:14.480
valuable enough for her to want to uh enter that frame so i don't know enough about you don't know
00:04:21.040
what you do for a living don't know what your physical state in is is looking like i really am
00:04:25.820
missing a lot of information so to offer you realistic advice on a scenario like this is quite
00:04:31.100
difficult but you should definitely do something to remedy the scenario and that might mean leaving
00:04:37.160
the marriage that might mean taking some um interesting steps to motivate her to come back
00:04:45.440
and re-enter who she might have been before you got married i'm assuming things changed dramatically
00:04:50.920
for some reason but um i'll give you that for now so there's a link below if you want to uh book me
00:04:58.480
one-on-one so chris we got some guys piling in here on the chat let me grab the super chat real quick
00:05:04.440
here uh appreciate the donation what does he say here think like the one percent uh what's the best way
00:05:09.680
to get women out of your house that doesn't want to leave and threatens to commit suicide well you
00:05:15.920
guys are coming at me with big problems today um assuming that you haven't lived together that long
00:05:23.640
it should be as simple as changing the locks on the front door when she's out at work and leaving her
00:05:29.320
crap on the front porch there might be some legal consequences if she's common law with you meaning
00:05:34.780
you guys are viewed by the state as a married couple even if you're not married so here for
00:05:40.080
example after a certain period of time i think it's either two or three years i can't recall right now
00:05:43.660
but after you live together with somebody for a certain period of time the state views it as common
00:05:47.620
law and she's entitled to half your stuff and you can't throw her out of the house so there's that to
00:05:53.780
consider um pretty simple if it's under common law check with the family lawyer to make sure first but i would
00:06:01.380
just when she's out get the locks change crap on the front porch and let the police know uh if she
00:06:08.340
becomes a problem to remove her from your property that's what i would be doing um what's up ryan my
00:06:16.140
brother ryan in the chat right there okay chris let me pull you in first because uh you entered the
00:06:21.000
waiting area uh what's up dude hey mate how are you just want to say thanks for uh thanks for your
00:06:29.280
channel really appreciate it i guess um my my thought is and i'm just seeing it recently so
00:06:35.080
much now um will simping get worse or in this pandemic or will it actually do you think it'll
00:06:41.080
get i don't know what where to from here just i don't obviously see it myself but i find it
00:06:46.120
fascinating i guess and um yeah here i know okay hang on a sec let me um can you can you just kill
00:06:54.140
your video feed because i'm having a hard time hearing you yeah yeah sure yeah just kill that
00:06:58.860
see if that cleans yeah that's fine man yeah okay so so what's the question i guess my question is i
00:07:04.620
find the whole simp uh issue really i guess fascinating um and just i don't understand i can't understand why
00:07:11.260
any guy would throw money at women who they don't even know let alone lust over them but during this
00:07:16.940
pandemic i've noticed this in my opinion i've noticed it's gotten worse um but will it ever end
00:07:23.360
or what's your thoughts on that no it's getting worse i was actually thinking about this earlier
00:07:27.860
today like the level of simping has reached biblical proportions um guys are throwing money at women
00:07:34.180
that they have no chance no hope in hell and even meeting face to face um with the intention of
00:07:42.820
hopefully meeting them face to face and maybe exchanging you know their financial interests
00:07:47.900
in them or their donations for a date or maybe more um i mean some guys just want to be financial
00:07:54.940
slaves and they'll just throw money at women because um they get off on it there's actually a a chunk of
00:08:01.020
the male population that actually gets off on being abused by women but it's not big it's it's it's
00:08:05.920
probably single digit percentage or even smaller um see the problem that we have today versus
00:08:13.560
what was happening a thousand years ago we've got more incels today we've got more of these black
00:08:18.200
pill guys we got more of the simping going on because previously in the past it was always the
00:08:24.000
survival of the fittest now we live in a globalist uh liberalist sort of environment and everybody is
00:08:32.040
tried is you know we try to protect and preserve them which is why we have more of these guys doing
00:08:37.960
things like simping you know on biblical levels so i don't think it's going to get any better you
00:08:42.660
know so long as we continue to um support that narrative it's it's going to be like this and
00:08:49.120
probably worse in my view anyway it's an interesting question though yeah i was just uh like this like
00:08:56.180
to be honest i'm being the best version of myself um i met a high quality woman as well uh you know
00:09:01.980
she's she's doing her own thing living her life and we we come together and have something good so
00:09:06.760
um i'm trying to like you know i guess learn have the best of both worlds but to be honest i i know
00:09:12.920
some black pill guys they're like no relationship i don't want a relationship for me i want a
00:09:16.920
relationship but it's got to be i guess my turn so yeah it's it is it's an interesting time to be a
00:09:23.300
man and date and i have also been previously divorced so you know i went through the that and went
00:09:29.680
through the cleaners so i think that's what made me red protect the red pill and be aware because
00:09:34.080
before i was definitely you know the that blue pill now and yeah live in that that full stream
00:09:39.980
environment is if you're a top shelf guy and you're at least in the top 20 ideally 10 5 you know the
00:09:48.580
smaller percentage of the demographic that you're in meaning as far as looks money game status and all
00:09:53.960
that sort of stuff um you're pretty much spoiled for choice it's comply or goodbye you know you're
00:09:58.940
going to set the you know you're going to draw a perimeter around your boundaries and if she steps
00:10:03.460
out of them it's see you later right you know because you don't have any problems as a guy like
00:10:07.480
that so um simping simping will offset that but at the end of the day these women they don't want
00:10:12.900
anything to do with these guys like they're not they're not going to sleep at night pining for
00:10:17.840
like there's no simp that's alpha widowing a hot woman it just doesn't happen you know what i'm
00:10:23.220
saying yeah definitely anyway thanks again for your time um rich and yeah love love the channel and
00:10:30.680
like i said just any advice to any other males out there just and it's i've been listening for
00:10:35.680
again last couple of years two or three years since i did go through that divorce and i'm like wow you
00:10:40.260
know um i live in australia so probably like canada where basically and i and i have a young daughter
00:10:46.600
so i got put i worked hard i had an investment property at 20 years old um always had property
00:10:52.400
but yep go through the cleaners and walked out with basically you know my dignity and you know
00:10:57.680
the shirt on my back per se and you mean and i'm working out to yeah get get back there but you know
00:11:03.880
it is a yeah there's no point hanging around in a bad marriage if you know it's not good and yeah
00:11:10.260

00:11:16.140

00:12:10.640
uh christian let me just make sure i got all these yeah okay christian we'll pull you in next
00:12:15.920
what's up dude what's up brother just want to say uh thanks for all that you've done um love you and
00:12:21.160
what all i'll do and my question to you is uh basically um you seem like a guy that doesn't
00:12:26.360
really give an f about anything you know you've achieved that status and i don't want to the worst
00:12:31.320
thing in my opinion than being blue pill is being a red pill masturbator so to speak so how is it that
00:12:36.520
you put the red pill to action because that's one thing that i want to do while being on my purpose
00:12:41.740
but i have trouble doing so how have you done in the past and how can what would you give a young
00:12:46.140
guy like me at 24 some advice for and that's what do you mean what do you mean by putting it into
00:12:51.740
action like what are you stuck on like what's holding you back here so one of the things i'm very
00:12:56.100
stuck on is like okay i know like i see a girl at the gym or whatever i was one of the guys that
00:13:01.540
puts a lot of stuff in the super chat about gym game from the last rule zero so when you see that
00:13:06.500
girl at the gym how do you like muster the confidence or grab yourself on the ball so to say
00:13:12.040
and actually go up to her talk and even on your purpose just being like i guess on your purpose you
00:13:18.820
know what i mean yeah um okay so i'm a little bit different than you because i'm obviously older
00:13:23.240
um i don't i don't really play games um and we had a difference of opinion on that last rule zero
00:13:31.680
you know myron um myron was big about um going to another gym and scheduling a time that you know
00:13:37.240
i actually agree with you more to be honest so that's why i just don't see it as a good use of
00:13:41.900
your time but i get the strategy that that he's using so i'm not saying that to disparage him
00:13:46.240
i'm just saying that i wouldn't approach it that way if you know what i'm saying
00:13:49.540
um but to your earlier question which is what i wanted to get back to rather than the specifics
00:13:55.640
of the gym thing is you apply it to every area of life you know like yesterday when that chick
00:14:03.500
tommy whatever the hell her name was was going on about guys being boyish men or whatever it was
00:14:08.520
yeah um you you have to understand a lot of guys look at somebody like that and like oh she's a trad
00:14:13.940
con beauty and she's you know like how do i find a woman like that but it's like when you listen to
00:14:18.340
her call all men trash she realized okay there's feminism in all women okay even the ones that say
00:14:24.700
that they're not feminist or that they're traditional conservative or they love donald trump or whatever
00:14:29.680
feminism is very convenient for all women when it's useful for them right let's point and sputter
00:14:37.100
and shame men for not marrying me right so you start to see it in more than just basic areas of
00:14:43.960
life like approaching or you know what motivates women to do sort of things like all that desire
00:14:49.020
dynamic and stuff like that you'll see it in the news you'll see it in the way the financial markets
00:14:54.880
work you'll see it you know the way that bitcoin has has been introduced as a new type of currency
00:15:00.860
that's um i mean it's not fighting with fiat currency right now but fiat currency is still
00:15:06.440
dominant like the u.s dollar is still the reserve currency in the world sort of thing right so you
00:15:11.480
start to apply that lens to many other areas of life and that's where the real use comes in my view
00:15:16.560
right it's it's it it should never be limited to just you know unplugging from the matrix and being
00:15:21.760
like oh now i understand what drives desire with women i know how to approach and i know how to deal
00:15:26.120
you know with you know negging and you know amuse mastery and all these like cool terms that you learn
00:15:32.680
kind of along the way that's just like the tip of the iceberg this is this is a adoption of a new
00:15:39.380
world view that you use for everything does that make sense yeah no especially because i graduated
00:15:46.100
college two years ago and i had to take one of these feminist courses and obviously i was one of
00:15:51.260
the few that wasn't buying their you know their bs and literally when i was listening to everything
00:15:58.060
about the red pill i listened to rolls but probably like three times already everything yeah i've
00:16:02.620
probably listened to it about five or six times there's a lot in there it's dense very much so
00:16:07.160
but i just want to say thank you for everything that you've done man um you're the probably one
00:16:10.900
of those alpha guys out there and thanks for everything that you've done yeah i appreciate it
00:16:14.800
man thank you see you brother all right uh steve i'll pull you in a sec let me grab the super chat

00:18:12.380
i don't even like the labels that uh the guys are using nowadays you know or the the terminology uh
00:18:18.440
i don't get me wrong i love dropping bombs bomber command uh you gotta stick with that but um i just
00:18:24.860

00:18:34.780
them fives and sixes were were wanting they wanted this this six you know all the sixes six foot tall
00:18:42.280
you know six foot long you know whatever but well that's what hypergamy is right like it's dating up
00:18:47.600
right like you'll you'll notice if you watch the video that i did yesterday again on that tommy check
00:18:53.860
she's not that hot oh that was great yeah you know it's like lipstick and makeup on a pig it's still
00:18:58.860

00:19:03.500
woman but well with the makeup on with the makeup with the hair with the clothes like she's not curvy
00:19:08.780
she doesn't look feminine you know to me i wouldn't even swipe right on her you know to be honest with
00:19:13.260
you right but somebody like that she's talking about guys not doing what she wants not valuing
00:19:19.980
value you know it was one of the other things that she says like like guys care what your degrees
00:19:24.120
is guys care that you've got a couple million followers on instagram to me that's a detriment i i don't
00:19:29.800

00:19:34.980
people right i don't know that's what it is it's it's hear me out so you know when you take like

00:19:58.220
like giving me all the screens with the threads and i'm reading this i'm like yeah this chick's
00:20:03.040
solipsistic just like every other woman it doesn't matter that she's a track on whatever
00:20:07.180
and of course hypergamy kicks in and she wants a 10 even though she's not even close to it and she's
00:20:12.360
demanding it and that's just the way that women are they they've always been that way it's just today
00:20:17.520
it's on overdrive right because they have they have one of these in their hand at all times
00:20:22.840
so it's it's it's it's the next swipe it's the next instagram update it's the next dm that she gets
00:20:29.280
it's a box of dicks is what it is and it gives her easy access to as much and early abundant amounts of
00:20:37.980
of guys right so she's you know so you can't you can't fault them for being um a little bit uh
00:20:46.280
you know walking around with an over entitled sense of self-worth it just is what it is so you just
00:20:51.120
kind of roll with it and you have fun with it um at the end of the day you do you you make yourself
00:20:55.440
your own mental point of origin chase your purpose and nice woman you know enters your frame and she
00:21:01.220
compliments your life not like the crazy one that i did your request on but no that was my fault
00:21:07.640
like no and i appreciated that i i needed you know what uh after dealing with the court
00:21:12.700
this this was the guy by the way if you watched the request a couple of weeks ago are you okay with
00:21:18.580
me telling them absolutely i said i said in the comments that that was me absolutely so so this
00:21:24.340
was the guy that he gave the engagement ring from another girl to a crazy ex who stole it from him
00:21:30.660
and he couldn't get it back and she called the cops on you was it uh yeah she uh she lived in toronto i
00:21:36.420
was uh living outside of the city so when i when i went in to see her uh they were basically waiting
00:21:41.140
there for me uh as if i was this you know horrific monster you know whatever you are whatever
00:21:46.820
because you're a man right oh absolutely and you know uh i i was and you know nothing to do with
00:21:52.920
anything i said or did but the fact that because of being a man she was somehow in her mind afraid
00:21:59.880
of me i was done i was done so no it was yeah you're cooking and i do want to say uh you could
00:22:07.660

00:22:56.720
the trash man uh gotta do with me i figured i have been busy as hell since monday yeah so actually
00:23:04.200
good how did that go for you did you get a couple people uh pinging you're looking for some help
00:23:07.720
oh lord it's been very very busy it's been very very busy thank you so much for doing that
00:23:12.300
so what's shaking with you tonight man so the question i had let me see if i can get this to
00:23:17.500
actually focus hold on a little a little tip i use i usually take some mail and i put it in front
00:23:23.480
of the screen i just kind of pull it back boom aha there we go aha figuring out this technology thing
00:23:29.560
so since we're on the the topic of the topic this evening was supposed to be the whole nomad
00:23:33.580
capitalism thing yeah you've obviously got family in canada that you can't really run away from right
00:23:38.300
now yeah but if you had it to do over you didn't have that sort of uh anchor what would you do since
00:23:45.280
you're a uphill guy that's a very good question so let's talk about that because i would definitely not
00:23:49.900
be here um right i was watching a little clip uh of joe rogan talking about why he's leaving
00:23:56.440
california and going to texas and it's it's it's obviously going to be a little more favorable for
00:24:01.600
him but at the end of the day it's guys like you pay a lot of money in taxes for not a lot in return
00:24:08.920
to listen to a bunch of people throw hissy fits all the time about everything not being fair and
00:24:14.220
they're never getting enough and they keep voting for more and more policies that remove my freedoms
00:24:19.380
from me and give away more crap to people that i don't think deserve honestly a lot of the crap that
00:24:25.820
they get that they're not working for they're particularly lazy there's some guys that you know
00:24:30.700
there's some people that need to be looked after and i'm fine with that but i think the vast
00:24:35.960
majority of people that are holding out their hands uh essentially stealing from me by way of
00:24:41.700
the government you know through the state um they don't deserve what they're getting and i have no
00:24:46.520
problems whatsoever with um leaving the country when the time's right it's just the time's not right
00:24:51.340
for me you know i have family here i've got a small kid so i'm gonna you know i'm gonna be there
00:24:56.620
for that because um you know that's that's what i need to do but um i don't know where i would go i
00:25:03.040
mean i was hoping to get some feedback from andrew uh tonight on what he thinks are some of the best
00:25:08.580
countries i've heard him talk a lot about georgia and eastern europe uh i know there's caribbean islands
00:25:14.020
that are that are favorable to um either getting passports visas or even living there on a on a semi-permanent
00:25:22.320
or even a permanent basis but you know his his whole philosophy which is why i like him and his
00:25:27.100
channel is go to where you're treated best um and i've watched quite a few of his videos i've read a
00:25:32.160
few of the articles that he's posted so i got a lot of runway for this i mean i got probably another
00:25:36.980
nine or ten years before i really have to finalize anything but i'd like to kind of work up to that so
00:25:42.620
i'm well prepared but i mean i could very well be doing this in 10 years time from a sailboat
00:25:48.860
somewhere in the caribbean from uh from an island the caribbean somewhere in eastern europe i don't
00:25:54.120
know i don't know where that's going to be i just know that i'm getting tired of cold ass canadian
00:25:58.960
winters i'm getting tired of the liberalist globalist agenda getting tired of having my money stolen from
00:26:04.400
me by way of taxes and they're high um once you factor in income sales tax uh you know the double up
00:26:11.960
of sales tax on some items like fuel you know for example um you're paying 55 60 62 percent you know
00:26:19.000
in some cases depending on where the money's going um and that's a lot and they're frivolous with it
00:26:25.200
and they don't behave well with it and i and i don't condone the behavior so it's my choice to leave
00:26:30.180
and i'm going to take my money with me and if they don't like it i don't really care but that's what
00:26:33.760
i'll be doing nice nice i don't know what are your thoughts man you know same question back to you
00:26:39.240
because you're in dc which is a heavily taxed state well i'm actually not in dc i'm in northern
00:26:44.640
virginia so it's not quite as bad um it's it's the least communist communist of the three uh of the
00:26:51.140
three country of the three counties you got district of columbia itself you got maryland to north you got
00:26:54.520
virginia to the south uh it kind of goes in order district of columbia maryland and then virginia in
00:26:59.620
terms of like communists right um because we actually have like concealed carry laws and so
00:27:05.140
i can actually get a concealed carry permit in virginia where you can't really do that in dc
00:27:08.360
and maryland for example but it's a very high cost of living area um it attracts a certain kind of
00:27:16.040
person and for the dating market that's definitely not ideal uh for a guy like very high cost of
00:27:22.400
living what does it cost for a four bedroom 2300 square foot house where you live
00:27:26.460
in a decent area yeah probably half a million maybe more so my townhouse that i bought is 1500
00:27:34.120
square feet this is uh three for for that which i just described it's about 1.2 million
00:27:40.120
and you're paying probably 55 tax on the income that you're using to buy a house at that price point so
00:27:48.280
welcome to i've heard the canadian real estate market is just absolutely insane yeah well there's
00:27:56.060
a lot of immigration here right there's a lot of people coming in and they have there's a lot of
00:27:59.660
foreign money right there's a lot of money a lot of asian money a lot of persian money a lot of
00:28:04.260
uh east asian money that's coming into canada um yeah there's a con there's a economist that i'd
00:28:09.740
like to listen to named mark blythe uh he's actually irish you know i'm sorry scottish and he's at
00:28:14.880
brown university in the u.s and he was asked you're answering a question on the australian
00:28:19.060
uh real estate market and about how it's a bubble he's like well yeah if you're looking at it from a
00:28:24.780
you know a the the idea of the internal demand in australia sure but what there's an external source
00:28:30.620
of demand right all these people in china who don't want to live in china if they can possibly
00:28:35.540
avoid it you know so you've got all this external funds that are pouring into these safe markets right
00:28:40.660
yeah there's a guy in our in our community in the one percent who's from china um i met up with
00:28:47.260
them last fallish he's got he's got a room in his basement and it's basically a gun room um he's got
00:28:55.900
four walls and each wall is covered with guns i don't know if you saw the video that i posted when
00:29:00.060
i was at his place yeah but trudeau basically wants two of his walls now um so when i'm talking about
00:29:07.380
things like personal freedom like not only are you paying more for stuff here and you're paying higher
00:29:11.140
taxes here but trudeau's actually taken away a lot of people's personal freedoms and liberties
00:29:15.980
because that's what the state does they want to be bigger and they want more control
00:29:21.900
um and that's kind of a good one you know for for the state to control i don't think that'll ever
00:29:28.580
happen in the u.s i mean it may or may not but i but it doesn't look like it's going to happen in
00:29:31.880
the near future anyway they they tried actually virginia tried to pass an assault weapons ban which
00:29:36.580
would actually ban um oh they freaking lost their minds you know ban any magazines over 10 10 rounds like
00:29:42.560
all kinds of guns and everybody lost their minds they actually had sheriffs and law enforcement uh
00:29:48.080
you know chiefs saying if this law passes i'm just going to deputize everyone in the city who owns guns
00:29:53.880
so that they're allowed to have the guns okay right and they just basically said no this is just not
00:29:59.980
going to work it's like how do you enforce that right how there's there's no possible way there's no
00:30:04.480
possible way that's not going to end very very badly but that's actually an interesting point when you
00:30:08.820
start looking at like places to live yeah because i've got a few guns myself he wants personal
00:30:13.200
freedom comes to canada and he's losing personal freedoms right but if you move somewhere else like
00:30:18.140
there's a lot of places where you can't own guns the same way you can in the states or even in canada
00:30:22.800
right australia you definitely can't no and that's another thing you know england no i don't i don't
00:30:28.940
even really care about handguns to be honest with you but if i want a long gun for hunting or you know
00:30:33.960
for skeeter chop shooting like they're not very clear about it and he's going about it in a way
00:30:39.740
that like the big argument if you guys don't know i think it was around february march there was a
00:30:45.280
shooting in nova scotia um and the guy used um rcmp i think it was an rcmp uniform an rcmp vehicle
00:30:54.620
um i don't know if he bought it in an auction and it was like previously used with high mileage but it
00:31:00.440
looked like you know basically official um law enforcement type of equipment and the firearms
00:31:07.620
he had they were not acquired legally they were illegally acquired what does he do he uses that
00:31:12.300
as an opportunity to take away everybody that's a licensed firearm owner take away his property so
00:31:17.980
i mean this this sort of thing i've not seen it get better as i get older i've only seen it get worse
00:31:24.360
so why would you want to and you know going to nomad capitalist slogan go to where you're treated
00:31:30.280
well why would you want to stay here if you're not treated well and that's the that's the big
00:31:34.920
question for me in a country where women hate men yes yeah and that's the big question it's like okay
00:31:40.300
fine so where are you actually treated well that's what i'm because that's the other that's what i'm
00:31:44.860
trying to get to the bottom of yeah because you you think about like places like argentina under
00:31:49.760
pinochet or was it chileo to pinochet or argentina back in the day whenever things started really
00:31:55.020
getting bad what they do they freaking got it all the foreigners right took all their stuff took all
00:31:58.720
their shit took all their money i don't know yeah you go to these places that don't necessarily have
00:32:04.220
a stronger rule of law like things get a little bit dicey if you're not if you're not wired into
00:32:09.160
the local local system so there's that piece of it too but on the same hand on the other hand like
00:32:13.980
if you're a savvy guy you're kind of you can tell which way the wind is blowing and so you got that
00:32:19.920
spidey sense to get the hell out of dodge when it's about time right and you put out a video on this
00:32:24.560
about the whole uh god what news was news story was it that you were talking about
00:32:28.440
this is about a two three months ago that you put out talking about uh being a bias and stuff like
00:32:35.220
that but oh is it the blm george floyd like all that movement going down this is this is before that
00:32:41.140
this is about like some nuclear incident or something like that i don't know but anyway i have to go back
00:32:47.000
point being it was a bit ago it's about four five six months ago it's before the whole like
00:32:51.120
right around the same time that covid started blowing up and things like that but anyways oh
00:32:55.000
yeah i know the one a lot of people got really upset at me because i was saying that this that
00:32:58.560
this whole covid thing is a big play for control and it's like no it's a safety thing you got to
00:33:03.660
wear a mask to be safe it's like oh really you still think yeah yeah but point being like if you if
00:33:09.060
you've got the you know so when you can kind of see which things are going which things are going
00:33:13.240
which way things are going and you can exit when it's the right time right when things start going south
00:33:17.900
then i think your options are pretty limitless honestly and it comes down to a what kind of
00:33:24.320
culture what kind of infrastructure do you need right well structure your life in such a way that
00:33:29.300
makes sense a lot of people are like you know when guys say to me um and ryan see i see you in the
00:33:34.320
waiting area so i'll bring you in next if you can just in the private chat just let me know what
00:33:37.560
your question is just so i can get some frame before i pull you in oh andrew made it i got andrew in
00:33:43.420
the green room so oh shit i'm gonna get the hell out of the way so you can do that
00:33:48.240
thanks ryan i'll see you later man yeah mr henderson we're live by the way i'm sorry we are live now by
00:33:56.900
the way great to be live with you we must have got the got our times off because um i had it scheduled
00:34:04.380
with your assistant for nine but i'm glad you made it because i was just talking to my friend ryan from my
00:34:10.340
community about where do you go where you're treated best and you know your essential slogan
00:34:16.200
your lifestyle so welcome yeah how are you tonight oh great to be with you and uh apologize for this uh
00:34:23.360
time zone issue no worries you're in kuala lumpur i am in kuala lumpur yeah i had um i had a couple of
00:34:31.240
guys that were uh really interested in hearing your take on your lifestyle choices and how you got there
00:34:38.020
and um i don't know if you've watched any of my videos i mean we exchanged some tweets back and
00:34:43.460
forth over the last couple weeks leading up to this when i was booking this yeah we did yeah um
00:34:48.580
where did this all begin for you like like how did you get into this i'm done with the west i'm i'm
00:34:54.240
going to go where i'm treated best was there a was there a straw that broke the camel's back for you
00:34:59.100
like where did this begin for you yeah i gradually i think um you know i think for some people it's
00:35:05.000
it's all financial for some people it's financial and and personal uh for me it was a blend of all
00:35:10.220
the above it was um you know uh basically getting a permission slip when i was 12 years old from my
00:35:19.340
father saying listen you don't have to stay in the same city state even country as your parents are
00:35:23.780
you have to take care of you know your family we're making sure what that's going to happen
00:35:27.640
should go where you're treated best and i didn't realize for a long time how few people get that
00:35:33.240
permission uh and so as i became successful in business as i did not heed the advice in my early
00:35:39.360
teen as my teens and early 20s starting a business and i uh you know became increasingly successful in
00:35:44.900
the u.s paid more taxes uh didn't find a lot of people that i enjoyed uh you know being around didn't
00:35:51.640
find a lot of people who were inspiring me the way i wanted to be inspired didn't find the social scene
00:35:55.280
the way i wanted to be i started traveling almost immediately started meeting people who shared my
00:35:59.760
values and ideals more and were more supportive and just gradually got more and more into this and
00:36:05.840
as i traveled more and more and as i was encouraged to travel more and more it was uh eye-opening in the
00:36:12.100
sense of well this bank treats people better it seems because they pay higher interest rates in this
00:36:16.480
country or you know why is uh real estate a better deal over here or uh why are the girls nicer over
00:36:23.240
here or you know whatever it may be you know finding these kind of arbitrage opportunities
00:36:26.600
um and uh and that was really uh where it started i think just kind of going more and more and more
00:36:34.280
and more to the point of saying i'm going to leave the u.s uh full time later uh you know giving up the
00:36:40.040
citizenship and uh it's all how long ago was that like when did one of the flip switch uh on the
00:36:47.740
citizenship the the you know like i'm done with the u.s and oh well i'm somewhere else yeah i i think
00:36:55.180
that uh for me the i mean over 10 years ago it was let me figure this out i didn't know what to do
00:37:03.440
but i if i cannot live here i won't yeah i've um i've i've had your youtube channel for those of you
00:37:11.840
that don't know uh andrew's youtube channel is nomad capitalist i've had it recommended by uh two
00:37:17.820
of my other friends who are entrepreneurs and i think caleb jones says he's worked with you as well
00:37:21.700
do you know caleb no i do know caleb am i allowed to say that yeah yeah um so we're like
00:37:29.460
i want to ask your opinion of this because i live in the toronto suburbs so very liberal country
00:37:36.200
very globalist agenda our prime minister uh is a self-proclaimed male feminist you know blah blah
00:37:42.640
blah sort of thing so um there's there's a slow progressive deterioration of my country the west
00:37:50.520
in general i've noticed i know a lot of guys like you that have left that have said i've had enough
00:37:55.320
i'm tired of paying taxes i'm tired of seeing my money go to uh agendas and ideologies that i don't
00:38:02.160
support that i don't want to get behind um how have you seen things change where you're at with
00:38:09.600
your travels because i because i've heard you mention that you've got a place in georgia
00:38:12.900
montenegro and kuala lumpur so um you've traveled around quite a bit um i've seen videos that you've
00:38:20.100
recorded in the middle east as well and in some cases the caribbean i believe um are there any
00:38:25.780
countries that you haven't been to or any continents that you haven't been to is it easier to start
00:38:29.620
there and say well i haven't been to antarctica i haven't done as much of africa i think africa's
00:38:34.720
very interesting but i also know we've had people from africa uh that we've worked with not a lot but
00:38:39.660
some and you'll have the guy who has the mozambique cement factory and the and the angola you know
00:38:46.060
logistics company and he'll say you know you're really it really helps to be from africa and to know
00:38:51.320
how people work around here um if you're going to be successful in these in these businesses and
00:38:56.440
there's there's huge returns if you do i find that uh most people aren't going to move to africa
00:39:02.000
and at this point part of where i go is dictated by what i think people would be interested in and i
00:39:06.120
don't imagine most people are interested in moving to benin um but yeah i've been to to most other
00:39:11.900
parts of the world not every exact country but most of their parts and and some parts of africa
00:39:16.940
also which but how do you how do you compare these other places that that you visited and lived in
00:39:23.060
um where you've been treated better to the united states like well i think the state of the u.s today
00:39:29.800
is so bizarre to me it's it is bizarre and i'm just looking and i'm thinking to myself there's no room
00:39:35.320
for someone like me who's kind of uh stuck in the middle as a pragmatist in some ways you know as a
00:39:40.060
business owner as a pragmatist i made a video talking about uh what happens if joe biden gets elected
00:39:44.640
you know the name is nomad capitalist right and we must have gotten i'm told of you know a thousand
00:39:50.300
comments of people you know you sound like a left-wing communist i mean you know this or that
00:39:54.640
because i simply said listen there's not going to be a huge difference in who wins um and that's
00:40:01.120
blasphemy to people in the u.s you know it's as if the u.s is going to be is going to become angola
00:40:05.980
tomorrow if joe biden wins uh your taxes are going to go up and maybe you lose a few freedoms
00:40:11.720
um you know it might happen under trump too um but i i i just think that uh yeah the u.s has become
00:40:19.520
such a crazy place i think the western world i don't i'm not as connected to it anymore i try and
00:40:25.200
stay away i pretty much realize the western world with maybe a few exceptions uh has just gone mad
00:40:32.740
and you know the juice back in the states what's that do you have any family and friends still back
00:40:38.400
in the u.s or have they all mostly left too no no they don't left okay um do they do they envy
00:40:46.920
your lifestyle at this stage like do they look at you and go gee andrew i wish i could be like you or
00:40:51.360
i'm gonna i'm gonna be doing what you're doing in five or ten years i mean family and friends uh
00:40:57.420
yeah some but you know i i've gotten used to uh and i respect this but i've gotten used to in this
00:41:03.400
business and probably a lot of others people who just come and it's there's a there's a romance
00:41:07.320
about it for them right one of my friends who is in the u.s who i helped him get his second passport
00:41:11.980
at least he said uh what you're doing in your in your articles and your videos is kind of like
00:41:17.660
writing romance novels for men uh sometimes where you know it's a fantasy how many people come through
00:41:23.420
on it so i don't know if they envy me or not i mean we all vote with our feet
00:41:26.920
um what is your what is your top uh like what is your favorite uh locales right now where you're
00:41:39.660
where you find guys are treated best like the top five countries let's say if you could
00:41:44.260
if you could share that well i mean the covet situation is is kind of trying to wrench in
00:41:49.680
things um but it's interesting because i think that this is this is going to keep happening more in
00:41:54.720
the future now that they've set the status quo where they've conditioned people to stay home
00:42:00.260
and wear masks and social distancing is now like a a soundbite that everybody's very familiar with
00:42:06.440
i suspect that they're going to pull this again in the future it's going to be for some other
00:42:10.520
pandemic or some something else but i don't think that this is just a one-time thing now
00:42:15.260
well i mean i think governments are always looking to exert power i mean through whatever means that
00:42:20.360
is convenient it's a good way to do it yeah i don't know their their genius isn't coming up
00:42:24.720
with ideas um but i do i have said i think you'll see some of these people who are you know the health
00:42:30.400
director or something will enjoy the publicity and maybe some one of them will become the president
00:42:34.460
or something in some country um i mean i think mexico has been very interesting um and i have a lot
00:42:40.560
of friends actually in mexico who say that it's very free there malaysia has been extremely free
00:42:45.960
you know here in asia things are largely back to normal um you're not traveling although you're
00:42:51.500
traveling internally you can't get a hotel room anywhere here i'm taking a trip next week during
00:42:56.320
the week because you can't get anything on the weekends anywhere um so i think that malaysia has
00:43:02.520
always been a hidden gem i think places like mexico have been interesting colombia has disappointed me
00:43:06.160
a little bit i own a home there and i think it's a great place but they've disappointed me a little
00:43:10.720
bit and i think eastern europe um not hasn't been perfect during this time um but you know georgia
00:43:17.540
had a very low caseload and i think they're they're at least moving in the right direction
00:43:21.380
i think you want to look for places that are moving in the right direction and anyone
00:43:24.780
that is too wealthy at this point is probably moving in the wrong direction what do you mean by that
00:43:31.140
if they're too wealthy they're moving in the wrong direction well so i noticed i went to chile last year
00:43:35.980
chile chileans are the one country in south america that can visit the u.s without a visa
00:43:40.560
it's about 41 countries i think so it's a small club that can visit the u.s and my theory is once
00:43:45.680
you have that u.s visa waiver program uh your country starts to go downhill because it reaches
00:43:50.720
this this pinnacle of now we're wealthy and now let's look for things to uh you know take people's
00:43:56.940
money uh let's look for you know all sorts of these things that make a country you know what you're
00:44:02.620
talking about in canada uh and so i think once a country becomes too successful there is that
00:44:07.080
temptation uh to say how do we screw this up because they forget you know i mean you talk to
00:44:12.160
people who work for me in places like serbia they remember what it was like they don't want to go
00:44:16.460
back to that uh georgia the same you know uh but these countries once it becomes too distant a memory
00:44:22.480
the adversity i think it's um and they start doing bad stuff what's um i mean for a guy like me that
00:44:29.740
lives in toronto and i've got an 11 year old and i might want to plan a exit at some point but still
00:44:38.840
be reasonably close to the country like not a 12 hour flight away i mean is there a place in the
00:44:44.000
caribbean or you know within about a five hour flight that i should be looking at well so i look
00:44:50.800
at a couple different things i mean one of them is tax benefits um certainly there's a you know if the
00:44:55.140
caribbean is your lifestyle and that's what you want then yeah i mean you've got the bahamas you've
00:44:59.700
got the cayman islands you've got uh anguila you've got antigua and barbuda um i don't know that you
00:45:06.780
want to live on the island of nevis and st kitson nevis with a kid and going to school that seems a
00:45:11.060
little uh small but that's probably the better island of the two uh and so those are all very
00:45:15.440
tax-friendly uh islands uh depending on what you're doing depending what about bermuda that's in the
00:45:20.800
north of 20 yeah it's expensive it's uh it's probably not at the top of my list um it's not
00:45:27.340
so not so uh warm either mexico you said is uh friendly to foreigners to expats yeah mexico is
00:45:36.360
super friendly um not only that but if you live there for uh five years you can become a citizen
00:45:41.720
and uh it's one of the best citizenships nobody knows it's one of the best citizenships in the world
00:45:46.420
as someone who that's my thing uh it's a great one and i love the i love the diversity for someone
00:45:51.980
who doesn't want to be stuck on the cayman islands i love the fact that you can live in the beach live
00:45:56.420
in the big city there are plenty of places in mexico that are safe like merida palanca in mexico city
00:46:01.700
um you know i've been all over i never had any problems so i think mexico is a great choice too
00:46:07.180
not you got to do some work to get the tax savings but uh it can be done
00:46:11.200
um i've i've been following a couple of youtube channels it's like one of those things where one
00:46:19.140
day youtube algorithms recommend something that they think i'll like and i go into this rabbit hole
00:46:24.060
and i've been following these sailing videos and i see these guys on like a 53 foot sailboat just
00:46:30.800
sailing around the world they're doing like 90 000 miles sometimes they have a few people on the boat
00:46:35.080
sometimes they've got 10 um and they kind of go to where the wind takes them and they just tend to
00:46:40.960
try to avoid hurricane season they pluck a lot of their fish out of the water um how would how
00:46:47.160
would somebody use the nomad capitalist lifestyle or the strategies that um you talk about often in a
00:46:54.260
mobile sort of environment where they don't actually have rooted real estate citizenship in one country
00:47:00.060
like yeah well so the challenge is if you're an american that's going to be hard because the tax
00:47:07.080
exclusion for americans that at least you know allows you to exempt your salary and that gets
00:47:10.920
you out of the system for some of the savings foreign or an income exclusion uh frowns on things
00:47:16.060
like sailing if you're in international waters uh they want you to be on land and so i've had
00:47:21.240
americans come to me who work on yachts or they own yachts and they have a very hard time saving on
00:47:25.340
taxes on their business for everyone else uh what you'd want to do is you'd want to have someplace on
00:47:30.980
land that you've established in a country here's my home here are my utility bills here is my tax
00:47:36.360
residence my tax home so that in your case for example canada wouldn't come after you and say
00:47:41.500
well you're designing kind of like a long vacation i mean i think the tax authorities in a lot of
00:47:45.780
countries probably look at sailing as kind of like a long vacation rather than a home uh they like you
00:47:50.940
know and so does your bank by the way or your crypto exchange or whatever it is it's doing kyc
00:47:55.760
uh they would really want to see you know where is the home even if you're not there and you're out
00:48:02.120
sailing what's your um what are your future plans with your um known by capitalist lifestyle like over
00:48:10.800
the next five years like are you are you planning to set some roots down and pick a place and kind of
00:48:15.700
stay or do you like the ability to maneuver whenever you need to i like the ability to maneuver um you
00:48:24.420
know it's challenging because there's so many great places out there in latin america i've gotten
00:48:28.260
it down to mexico city uh into bogota where i have a home i don't in mexico city i think i could probably
00:48:34.200
live without the rest of the i mean there's a lot of great places there but i could live just you know
00:48:38.180
taking a vacation but there's so many great places uh so i got married about a year ago and uh you know
00:48:44.140
she's pretty supportive but but i already wanted to be slowing down and so i think it'll be who knows
00:48:50.060
exactly right now it's in kuala and poor for most of this year and i think it's a great place to be
00:48:55.100
i think in the future we'll probably continue to adapt where we spend our time so montenegro won't
00:49:00.300
be four months a year as i had at one point thought it's probably a month you know i also have teams
00:49:05.180
around the world so going and spending time with them will be important i can't see a time in the
00:49:09.720
immediate future when i'm just going to say i'm staying in one place and i'm never leaving
00:49:12.760
it sounds like there's um you don't i mean like maybe some guys have this notion that if they pick
00:49:21.520
up and leave home country and they go set up residency let's use something like uh bahamas you
00:49:27.660
know for example um you still have tax liabilities that you've got to pay um there's still required
00:49:35.440
like there's still rules that you have to follow right like you don't have uh supreme personal freedom
00:49:40.880
right like you've like you've got to comply with local laws in some cases you've got to buy real
00:49:45.980
estate to get a visa perhaps like i guess it all depends on where you're going this is something
00:49:50.940
that you guys will specialize in breaking down well yeah so i mean what you're perhaps mentioning is is
00:49:58.300
the the perpetual tourist right or the digital nomad who's constantly just going in and out on tourist
00:50:03.460
visas um you can do that again unless you're an american you're going to want to have some tax home and
00:50:09.400
not be seen as just a tourist because canada or australia or whatever else is going to look at
00:50:13.480
you and probably be less forgiving um if you have any other mistakes in your tax plan um so yeah i mean
00:50:22.020
i if you want to find one place or two places or three places what i call my trifecta you can go and
00:50:28.200
get a residence permit now in many latin american countries it's merely a matter of showing income
00:50:32.400
i make a thousand five hundred dollars a month and here's six months of bank statements to prove it
00:50:36.720
uh or in asia it's sometimes simply a matter of saying i have two hundred thousand dollars to my
00:50:42.020
name and here i'm going to put a hundred thousand dollars in your bank uh but yeah in other countries
00:50:46.080
it could be buying real estate there's there's often many different programs people look at
00:50:49.660
uh some of the european countries with these expensive real estate investment programs they don't
00:50:53.760
realize if you're a freelancer with two thousand euros a month you can get in
00:50:56.720
um the only difference is they require you to spend more time in the country than the golden visa
00:51:01.780
uh in order to keep your residence so there's there's a whole ton of options are there are
00:51:06.800
there countries that you're vehemently opposed to traveling to like you're like you want nothing to do
00:51:11.640
with because they're too hostile towards you uh i i wouldn't visit the united states and maybe they
00:51:18.320
don't want me to be maybe it's a mutual feeling but uh i wouldn't i get all nostalgic on rare
00:51:23.740
occasion uh but i wouldn't i don't particularly trust them um canada i think i mean i love canadians
00:51:30.380
and and all that uh i don't know entirely how connected they are to the us they seem to do a
00:51:36.460
lot of the same stuff the us does they seem to borrow a lot of their stuff and uh it does seem
00:51:41.020
like the more i've traveled through what i call the kuna countries the big four canada u.s new zealand
00:51:45.820
australia add the uk to the list they are becoming a bit more um difficult you know used to be you're
00:51:52.620
an american going to canada and it's just like come on in the last time i went through canada it's
00:51:56.860
like what are you doing i'm like i'm flying through i'm going to el salvador from europe
00:52:01.340
and they were it was really uh scrutinous so i you know what do i need that for
00:52:06.780
how many how many passports do you have uh coming up on the fifth and is it really that useful to
00:52:16.380
you to have five passports like what's the actual benefit to guys to get five passports
00:52:24.940
i imagine for the average person five is probably too many um obviously most people aren't giving
00:52:31.740
up their u.s citizenship so that would make it six um but here's how i look at it if an opportunity is
00:52:37.420
available to you uh in this world you should take it whether it's you know if you believe in keeping
00:52:42.780
money in the bank and you're not entirely crypto or entirely gold or whatever you know if there's
00:52:46.780
a bank account that's affordable get it and when it becomes more expensive you'd be locked in if
00:52:50.860
there's a passport because uh you know you married someone or you have descent or whatever else you
00:52:57.340
know take it um so you know visa free travel is good right now you know during the whole coronavirus
00:53:03.660
situation i've got you know one or two passports they can get into europe and you know one i think they
00:53:08.780
can't um so i think that you know being able to uh you know go to different countries you know engage
00:53:16.140
with different people on investments you know it's a good idea do you need five no probably not one of
00:53:20.700
them is probably just sitting in the safe for the most part um but you know it also it's a place to go
00:53:26.300
and live you know if you're a citizen that's the highest level of being able to get into a country and
00:53:30.140
so uh it is a call option on what could happen in the future and having more places to be able to go
00:53:35.340
um you've mentioned banking quite a few times already uh and it kind of breezed over crypto
00:53:42.780
what's your view on the fiat banking system versus a cryptocurrency style of economy
00:53:50.460
well again i'm somewhat of a pragmatist uh i do have money in the bank i also like crypto i'm not a
00:53:57.820
put everything in crypto kind of person i'm a very diversified person um so i mean if you look at
00:54:03.260
the u.s dollar just in the last month i mean it's been a disaster and i think you'll see more of
00:54:08.220
that um but you know i'm a business person most people want to pay in u.s dollars or their local
00:54:14.860
currency and so i take that keep some of it pay my expenses in it uh you know buy real estate with it
00:54:21.740
uh and i think that again you know having numerous banks is a call option as you know on reputational
00:54:29.500
reasons you know where's your money coming from um you know asset protection reasons i think that um
00:54:36.220
you know having some of each category is a good idea so uh maybe it's not very exciting to say you
00:54:42.540
know be diversified but it's what i do um here's my chat here's my challenge with crypto here's my
00:54:50.620
challenge with christmas i mean you need you need adoption yeah you need adoption and i don't know
00:54:56.460
that you know it's it's to me part of the crypto movement um is kind of the same thing as the
00:55:03.980
libertarian movement and it's just it's it's i feel like it's it's if we stick to doing that you're
00:55:12.060
going to challenge getting adoption because most people aren't libertarians most people just want
00:55:15.020
a way to pay and so when they talk about you know case studies of people in africa you know who have
00:55:19.020
zimbabwe dollars that are falling to the floor or they have a hard time you know you know holding local
00:55:24.540
currency uh that's a great use and that should be trumpeted more i don't know that the average
00:55:30.380
person wants to hear about to end the fed i don't think that's what's going to get them on board um
00:55:35.900
and so i think more of the actual you know use cases uh is helpful um yeah i agree there's there's
00:55:43.980
a serious problem with the um adoption curve and i don't think it's it's ever going to go big i mean
00:55:49.660
i had a friend of mine uh 2011 we sat down and we had lunch and he was just pivoting out of a
00:55:54.860
business and he said something to me about bitcoin he's like i'm going all in on bitcoin and i just
00:55:59.180
heard about it a few months prior to that and i'm like you sure about that man because i ran a business
00:56:03.020
and financial services for a while and i saw how pissed off the banks and the government get
00:56:07.340
when you do something that um infringes on their ability to control the public and he's like oh yeah
00:56:15.660
it's going to blow up it's going to blow up and i mean it's it's it's worth a lot more than what it
00:56:19.900
was in 2011 but i'm kind of with you on that right like until the world really adopts it it's
00:56:25.180
i'm just kind of like all right i got something yeah for sure i i i i i don't want to be i don't want
00:56:31.340
to be a you know miserable person but i don't want to be overly idealistic and saying you know here's
00:56:36.540
a great solution if only people will see the truth i mean people are sheep yeah i mean anything yeah
00:56:44.140
um speaking of sheep you you seem to get criticized a lot for encouraging people to
00:56:50.620
go to where they're treated better and pay lower taxes um i'm sure that's been going on for a while
00:56:56.060
like which surprise you um no not really but i think that for some people watching this that don't
00:57:03.020
know who you are um and the fact that the vast majority of the population is plugged into societal
00:57:09.100
conditioning and lies and they are pretty much sheep i mean you must get that a lot
00:57:15.980
i i don't know i mean define a lot i guess uh i you know sir people uh people like to comment uh as
00:57:23.260
we get bigger uh you get more haters uh you get more haters from within the community because you're
00:57:27.980
doing it the wrong way or uh you know you're you're more in favor of gold than crypto or crypto than
00:57:33.100
gold or whatever but yeah i mean you have an increasing number of people coming and saying
00:57:37.020
why aren't you paying you're a coward why are you leaving you know here's the reality um number one
00:57:44.140
i can handle it uh i was never the most popular guy in school that's why i became an entrepreneur i
00:57:48.540
wanted to build something uh so i'm used to it it's okay uh but you know i'm not really going to be too
00:57:55.420
concerned about the opinions of people who think that uh you know they're born in a place and
00:58:00.060
therefore they're indebted for for life you know where people in the community people again the
00:58:05.740
libertarians perhaps would criticize me is you know you're not going to change the way us or canadian
00:58:10.700
tax policy works if you live there i'm not all for hiding in the underground economy and you know
00:58:16.860
dealing in the black market listen you live there at a certain point you have agreed to the social
00:58:21.500
contract um but i'm saying you know what no i'm not going to sign that it's like clicking uh don't
00:58:28.940
install the software i don't agree to the end user you know license agreement and if you leave and
00:58:35.100
you're not using the roads and the bridges and all that i don't really see what the issue is but
00:58:39.660
yeah i mean you've got a lot of people who think that they're entitled and you know what i've realized
00:58:43.100
right is recently in hiring and in developing friends and all that that's my one big word now that i
00:58:49.260
avoid is entitlement i don't need it um a lot of guys ask me this question i think this is right up
00:58:57.820
your alley because it sounds like you had to deal with this yourself something along the lines of how
00:59:02.860
do you how do you give fewer f's about people's opinions about their judgments about their control in
00:59:11.660
your life because i see a guy here before me that i've never spoken to before until i mean we've covered
00:59:18.860
like 30 minutes so far but you clearly don't care what other people think you came from a place where
00:59:25.580
it's it's basically bred into from day one they they like beat you with the kool-aid you they're
00:59:31.180
force-feeding you it how do you how do you walk away from that old world belief and adopt the new one
00:59:38.060
that serves you better like how did you do that by doing it i i i don't know that there's some great
00:59:47.180
uh uh you know theory i i was i think how do you give fewer fewer and fewer over time uh is maturing
00:59:55.900
in your business maturing in your wealth um i think the more successful you are the more confidence you
01:00:02.220
build whether it's you know with with dating whether it's with business whatever it is you know i like
01:00:07.100
to study people that we've worked with you know that have 100 million 200 million a billion dollars and
01:00:12.700
you look at how how they've developed and i see okay that's that's the trajectory for me kind of
01:00:16.860
looking back when i was over here and now i'm here you know the closer i get to them you just kind of
01:00:22.220
drop some of the apps that you you want to give uh but how do you how do you get to the system i i my
01:00:29.020
entire thing uh that i'm finally slowing down on has just been let's do it right now let's go let's
01:00:34.220
just book the plane ticket i'm leaving in a week um one of the things that happened to me early on
01:00:41.180
that uh actually it was a girl i met along my early travels that inspired me she would just go
01:00:46.220
she said all my friends in wherever she was living would never uh take the time off to go and
01:00:52.060
travel with her they always had an excuse she's like i'm just going to be a 23 year old girl
01:00:55.340
traveling alone and i'm not going to be embarrassed and i'm going to learn to feel comfortable eating
01:00:59.100
alone and traveling alone i'm just going to feel comfortable alone certainly men are perhaps more
01:01:05.980
used to doing that um but i think that's something that people need to do it's just immersion therapy
01:01:14.140
what are some big takeaways from some of the high net worth individuals that you've worked with
01:01:19.100
like what do they do differently than what the vast majority of the north american population do
01:01:25.340
that that provides that personal freedom fewer f's to give the ability to maneuver when they want
01:01:32.220
you know like what have you learned from all these high net worth individuals that you've worked with
01:01:37.260
well it's quite simply they've done it right so you know i talked to a guy recently we're doing some
01:01:42.140
some screening for a citizenship program he said you've ever been sued he's like yeah we get sued
01:01:45.980
all the time workplace you know wrongful termination someone doesn't work we've got a thousand employees
01:01:50.460
we fire someone you know it's in the u.s of course they come after us and i think it's just kind of
01:01:55.260
building up uh a shield around them but what i've also found is number one they care a lot less about
01:02:01.580
money than anybody ever thinks they do number two there's some of the nicest people and what's
01:02:06.860
interesting from a business point of view is you know if someone wants to start a business i've always
01:02:12.060
suggested um deal with the absolute you know uh poorest people or deal with the wealthiest people and
01:02:18.300
since i increasingly see dealing with the poorest people in a way that makes money is predatory i'm
01:02:22.540
going to deal with the wealthiest people and i'm going to charge a premium price for that
01:02:26.300
get flack for that too i suppose but um uh you know they are easier to deal with they're more
01:02:34.860
understanding uh and they're just looking to get the result and they're not looking to make you know
01:02:39.420
a business interaction about you know how do i extract a certain amount of time to justify the value
01:02:43.980
that kind of thing and so it's just about you know how do we collaborate um so i think that you know it's
01:02:48.700
it's it's very nice they're not responding to people's comments they're not leaving stupid
01:02:54.060
comments you know when you look at some of these comments that you mentioned earlier you know how
01:02:57.020
do you give fewer f's you look at it i think you reach a certain point in life where you say there's
01:03:00.780
no way that any of these people have a higher net worth than i do there's no way any of them have a
01:03:04.300
higher income than i do or else they wouldn't be doing it yeah it's almost physically impossible
01:03:10.380
correct correct i'm getting feedback from somewhere um hang on a second i'm going to pull you out of the
01:03:19.260
stream and then bring you back in see if that fixes it no i got echo from you still um do you have
01:03:26.060
a set headphones you can plug in like something with a cord that comes from a cell phone or anything
01:03:30.620
do we have something with a cord from a cell phone should just clean up the audio a little bit
01:03:34.540
yeah bring the let's get the earpods will earpods work yeah yeah and i will just uh stops the feedback
01:03:40.940
going back to the microphone not sure we suddenly have an echo
01:03:43.980
it's a new introduction to this stream unfortunately no let me let me plug in these
01:03:52.060
earpods here thanks hopefully they're they're well charged all right here we go number one number two
01:04:00.620
and uh let's try that again how's that all right the echo's gone perfect let's see here
01:04:11.340
oh well it's still there it's a little bit smaller we'll make it work all right well we'll work um
01:04:18.060
you've got a conference that that you run can you tell us a little bit about that and
01:04:22.540
what the uh what the speakers bring to the table what the general theme is
01:04:27.900
yeah so i decided after about four years let's host another conference uh called nomadic capitalists
01:04:33.980
live um robert kiyosaki um roger bear from the crypto world who also renounced u.s citizenship that
01:04:42.700
was one of the reasons i wanted him to come robert kiyosaki obviously wrote rich dead poor dead
01:04:47.580
i don't think we agree in absolutely everything but i think he sees that the world is changing and
01:04:51.260
he sees the value in following wealthy people uh mikhail sakashvili was the president of georgia
01:04:58.220
a controversial guy you know i spent a lot of time in georgia certainly people in georgia being
01:05:03.900
new to democracy some don't like him anymore there's been kind of a political campaign against
01:05:08.460
him but here's a guy who took a soviet hellhole and turned it into the sixth easiest place to do
01:05:13.100
business in the world uh in a matter of less than a decade fired the entire police force rebuilt almost
01:05:19.820
singapore levels of corruption practically um and so incredible transformational story
01:05:26.220
uh viedlica is just kind of an interesting guy building this uh uh little seven square kilometer
01:05:32.780
island in the danube called leaper land and trying to make that its own country so that's kind of
01:05:37.100
interesting and i think you'll see a few more to come the idea is uh and by the way the main speakers
01:05:42.300
are going to be people on our team who are the ones doing the work on citizenship options banking
01:05:47.100
options you know what to do with your crypto taxes all that kind of stuff um but i think it's important
01:05:53.580
for people to hear you know winning voices as well as get the information and so uh we're having we're
01:05:59.980
looking at a few other names and it's probably just going to be a jammed in like don't don't go to
01:06:05.340
the bathroom kind of thing because we got too much to present okay interesting i got um i got my friend
01:06:11.820
john here in the green room i'm going to add him to the stream he's he's also in asia um did you have
01:06:17.820
a question john you're yeah i'm in tokyo where are you where are you in asia in kuala lumpur malaysia
01:06:24.940
oh nice nice yeah i just wanted to ask you um about the feasibility of giving up your american
01:06:34.940
citizenship in order to let's just be frank not get financially extorted by the united states
01:06:41.100
government by receiving zero benefits as we live abroad but we pay taxes back home to a place that
01:06:47.260
we're literally receiving zero benefit for is it feasible or is that stupid or what do you say
01:06:51.900
well they would say the benefit is you get a u.s passport to travel the world on and so it shows
01:06:57.500
that a country it's not really a home as i've said it's a transaction and that's what now some
01:07:02.540
people in canada are saying and so it's no longer you're one of us we believe the same blood is it
01:07:07.340
feasible yeah i mean it's feasible i always encourage people to look at it from an roi
01:07:11.260
perspective now you know in my case and i've got a gentleman right now who feels the same way we just
01:07:16.380
don't like the country we don't feel connected we don't like showing the passport when we go places
01:07:20.460
that i think is our bigger reason but certainly you're right most people do it for financial
01:07:24.460
i think that um you know is it worth going out and getting a second passport um you know do you have
01:07:30.860
heritage from someone do you have a parent a grandparent a great grandparent that you can
01:07:34.860
qualify for a passport for practically free that makes it a lot easier because everyone i've had who
01:07:39.580
became you know new zealand citizen uh because their dad was new zealand or their grandfather was irish
01:07:45.500
or whatever um they were able to renounce they've all been able to visit the us again they've
01:07:50.300
suffered no loss of travel around the world now you know some of those other western countries might
01:07:55.420
start adopting the same tax policies i think in the next 10 years uh where they tax you worldwide at
01:08:00.940
least to some degree but anyway i mean i think that's feasible if you have to go down to the caribbean
01:08:05.500
for example and buy a citizenship for a hundred thousand dollars just run the simple roi but from a
01:08:10.780
feasibility standpoint i mean the u.s government really doesn't gonna they're not gonna try and stop you
01:08:15.420
from renouncing um and so it's just a matter of how good of a passport do you have uh to replace
01:08:20.860
it i had a guy recently qualified for a vietnamese passport you're probably not going to renounce just
01:08:25.180
be vietnamese unless you only want to live in asia um or only want to live in one place where you get a
01:08:30.540
visa so that would be the biggest feasibility issue to me is how are you going to exist in the world and
01:08:35.180
that really depends on you know how do you want to travel i guess you could have the world's worst passport
01:08:40.540
if you said i'm only going to live in portugal and i'll get a residence permit and i'll never leave
01:08:45.260
and that's very feasible even if you were iranian or something um but very financially feasible the
01:08:50.860
other issue that comes into mind that i've had is had a guy who raised 600 but well he raised money
01:08:57.500
at a 600 million valuation he owns 47 of this company you know his basis is basically zero his
01:09:04.700
feasibility for renouncing is he has to sell whatever number of shares 50 million dollars 60 million
01:09:09.980
dollars in shares to add to his cash position to pay the exit tax because he's going to have a big
01:09:15.020
exit tax so those are the two issues that i think you'd want to consider but you know from just a
01:09:19.900
purely structural standpoint it's very feasible to do um and and yeah i think that the countries are
01:09:26.620
in the west are only going to become more focused on how do we take your money because you have the
01:09:31.980
privilege of being one of us again i have a follow-up question if you're okay yeah sure uh kind of
01:09:38.860
not as related but um i'm heavily involved in the cryptocurrency space and i've been uh purchasing
01:09:45.180
bitcoin since quarter four of 2016. went through the 2017 bull rush it was insane in tokyo i don't
01:09:53.500
know if you know about uh the japanese and their acceptance of bitcoin but basically it's like a super
01:09:58.620
super friendly cryptocurrency um atmosphere over here you could pay like if you were to get a car like a
01:10:04.700
ticket for like beating or whatever you can pay it with bitcoin in japan you can pay all your legal
01:10:09.420
debts and get bitcoin um right now we're obviously seeing a pretty jump a pretty big jump highest point
01:10:17.100
for the price all year um some friends of mine we have a little mini show that we do about cryptocurrency
01:10:24.140
we believe that this is like the beginning of the second bull run are you in that like train of thought
01:10:32.220
are you that in involved in crypto or what's your stance on the current price because we have between
01:10:37.980
august 12th and 18th we think the cycle high is going to come in at about 12 500 for for bitcoin um
01:10:45.580
are you that involved with it are you more of like an investor what do you say i'm not a great prognosticator
01:10:51.260
on on cryptocurrency or probably on on any particular you know asset class um it's quite possible uh you know
01:10:59.660
where i where i focus on on a personal level where i focus is like a lot of the people that we're
01:11:04.460
working with right now that have crypto i ask them you know what's your opinion where is it going how
01:11:08.380
do we plan around this i think i recently i have 400 000 in crypto i said is it going 100x is it going
01:11:13.900
50x this is a big part of our tax plan i don't know it's a hedge you know i'm a big i like gold i mean
01:11:20.940
it's a hedge i mean right now it's also doing very well um so it's a way to to insulate against fiat i don't
01:11:28.060
you know i don't know if it's going to 12 500 or 125 000. um you know really my focus is on what's
01:11:35.500
the the policy implications of that and if i you know if i felt that it was going up substantially
01:11:41.660
i feel pretty good being saint lucian and and others uh rather than being american canadian australian
01:11:48.300
what have you yeah i'm friends with roger veer the founder and creator of uh yeah bitcoin cash and he
01:11:54.540
has like what you just said he has a saint kid's passport he renounced his uh american citizenship
01:12:00.380
so awesome dude that's all i wanted to say thanks john hey thanks man thanks and that's why by the way
01:12:05.980
yeah have a good day uh people have said you know why roger veer out of all the people in crypto well
01:12:11.020
you know roger veer is the guy who in my world at least walked the walk was a u.s citizen gave it up
01:12:19.020
they won't let him back in now uh it seems so i'm not sure i think it's an interesting story yeah like
01:12:24.860
i'm not sure he actually cares that much to be honest with you i got i got chris here that's uh
01:12:29.660
gave me a little uh private chat question uh you wanted to ask him a question about where things are
01:12:35.020
improving was it something like that chris yeah where do you think things are getting better because
01:12:38.860
right now it does seem like the west is going nuts and you know i was i was happy to see that in
01:12:44.220
serbia they rioted and in germany they had you know berlin they had that giant protest i mean it
01:12:49.660
seems like the people in eastern europe because they used to have this they get it
01:12:54.860
improving in terms of what just going away from socialism and you know and you know i'm hoping
01:13:01.980
that maybe the world learns something from this year that maybe this is the bottom but i don't think
01:13:07.740
we're going to see a learning lesson out of this yeah yeah i mean to your much earlier
01:13:12.940
question i mean people have short memories uh which could be good or bad um you know i think
01:13:18.300
asia parts of asia are good here's the thing learning lessons aside you have countries like malaysia
01:13:24.620
you have other countries in this kind of belt around the equator where people are just pretty
01:13:28.860
laid back and you may not have a constitution or a bill of rights with these kind of things that
01:13:34.220
you see in a place like the us but what you have is people who just want to leave you alone
01:13:39.500
i do think eastern europe is interesting the balkans are kind of a mixed bag for me
01:13:44.220
because they do the riots um there's certain things that they're more accepting of i think that
01:13:51.740
the caucasus is interesting armenia george in particular um i think those are places that have
01:13:57.980
learned the lesson again we talked about president sakashvili so i think that serbia montenegro are good
01:14:03.980
places to live um i think people are so they just so want to be left alone there they're a little
01:14:09.660
bit apathetic in parts of the balkans um and so whether that allows people to kind of tiptoe back
01:14:14.700
in and do something i guess if they do they'll they'll do these riots so yeah i i think if you've seen
01:14:19.420
some adversity in your life in any regard i think that's a good thing if your country's seen some
01:14:23.900
adversity that's a good thing for making sure that you're doing things right but um yeah i think
01:14:30.140
those are the best places latin america is also kind of a mixed bag um and so i don't know that
01:14:35.420
that's the best example even though i like it from a lifestyle perspective you know uruguay was one
01:14:41.820
country that didn't go didn't go crazy during all this and i think they were the only one in south
01:14:46.620
america that didn't yeah chile is when it's thrown around a lot i find that to be rather overrated
01:14:53.180
quite frankly um heading in the wrong direction not particularly interesting um yeah uruguay is
01:14:59.340
an interesting option hard for me to get people to get excited about uruguay i'm always suggesting
01:15:03.740
that to folks and is one of a series of options and people and it's it's far away it's you know
01:15:11.180
uh but yeah that's potentially a good one all right thanks chris thanks bye-bye all right um
01:15:18.620
um what uh culture do you find most fascinating uh from your travels
01:15:27.420
it's an interesting question uh because there's so many i i and why you know i think
01:15:34.140
asian cultures you know coming from the us are very exotic uh if i had to say totally a fascinating
01:15:40.300
culture i'd say india um you've got a culture where you've got so many people who are what i would
01:15:46.700
call forced entrepreneurs you've got you know the poorest country probably i've ever been to in
01:15:51.500
terms of the look and the feel of it and you've got so many people who are really you know striving
01:15:56.380
every day um you've got this you know very incredible exotic culture from our perspective
01:16:02.620
with beautiful you know places in a very interesting way of operating um and i think an interesting
01:16:10.060
not perhaps perfectly even but interesting growth story ahead of it
01:16:14.860
um so i'm not saying that i've spent a lot of my time in india but if i had to say what's the most
01:16:19.500
fascinating to me i think india is probably it um as you've gotten older what's become more important
01:16:26.940
and what's become less important for you it's a really good question um one of the things that's become
01:16:36.060
more important is is building there's a good paradigm that builder versus hustler paradigm
01:16:42.140
and nothing wrong with being a serial entrepreneur i started and sometimes sold a couple of
01:16:46.700
businesses earlier in life but i'm really more focused on building at this point if i weren't
01:16:51.340
doing this as a business i'd still be doing it in my personal life so i might as well have the business
01:16:56.300
and and have the uh the ability to go in and be treated well by people in the industry and the
01:17:02.540
government what have you um i don't know what the act is after this and so i think building to me is
01:17:07.500
really important uh you know some of us here might disagree on what that building looks like
01:17:11.420
it could be a family it could be building your business bigger and bigger but i think it's
01:17:15.020
sticking with certain things that has become increasingly important to me um what are some
01:17:20.780
of the challenges that you've had to overcome uh with this new lifestyle versus you know the
01:17:25.900
conventional set down your roots you know raise your 2.1 kids white picket fence go get your corporate
01:17:32.460
job pay your taxes like what are some of the challenges that you've had to deal with
01:17:40.300
uh packages not getting delivered on time um you know stores closing 28 minutes earlier than
01:17:47.980
they're supposed to i mean i can't say there's been some kind of great uh challenges there's there's
01:17:53.580
consumer inconveniences which is part of why age is a great place because you have a lot of consumer
01:17:59.340
conveniences but um now you have to adapt and you have to understand how people operate
01:18:05.100
um and cultures are different and so you know when you go to a restaurant in most places in the world
01:18:11.100
you're not going to have a friendly chit chat back and forth with the waiter you know you kind of miss
01:18:15.580
that from time to time it's very much uh you know what do you want off i go uh sometimes they
01:18:21.500
misunderstand but i think it's just a lot of minor things like that rather than some large systemic issues
01:18:28.860
have you have you done any any kind of language work like have you tried to learn some local
01:18:33.740
languages or you just stick to english or large cities where they speak some some or enough english
01:18:39.820
yeah i i've i've been focusing a little bit more lately um not as much as i should have quite
01:18:45.980
frankly you know when i was following a matic there was times i was in 30 countries a year and
01:18:49.740
most were pretty off the wall i'm not going to learn you know burmese or something um i can get
01:18:55.820
around in spanish it's much easier when they're just in the environment it kind of comes back to
01:18:59.820
me i've been trying to increase my my russian it's not great um but i think those are two good you know
01:19:06.700
universal languages we got a super chat here i'm going to deal with and then we'll uh and then we'll
01:19:12.860
get to wrapping it up uh james said uh thoughts on becoming a georgian citizen second citizenship
01:19:18.460
i'm an american investing over half a million usd at least thanks for your time i'm not sure what he
01:19:23.580
means by that do you have to invest half a million into the country or buy real estate or a business
01:19:27.740
or something well in some countries you can if you invest much so there's the the citizenship by
01:19:33.180
investment programs in the islands where it's a pretty streamlined procedure a hundred thousand
01:19:37.020
dollars you get a donation you get a passport in other countries if you are particularly if you're
01:19:41.980
a westerner if you're what they view as a good nationality you know sometimes making large
01:19:45.980
investments can get you on a fast track i think in the case of georgia um the current government is
01:19:51.980
less favorable towards uh that kind of thing um so it's a constantly changing landscape now you know
01:19:59.580
the question is if i'm going to invest half a million dollars um now i had a guy who sold 150
01:20:05.580
million dollars worth of hotels in the us and we were looking for places where hey open one or two new
01:20:10.780
hotels in this european country we can talk to the minister of finance we'll give you citizenship
01:20:15.660
because they they want a particular type of investment or in a particular area or whatever
01:20:21.500
um so if you were to invest 500 000 that's not a lot but i would ask myself do i like the investment
01:20:26.940
otherwise um i think georgia after this current situation will probably going back go back to being
01:20:33.820
a good deal it was not wasn't a bad deal before uh so i i'm still relatively bullish on the country in
01:20:39.740
general i think there's a lot of untapped opportunities there i'm doing it for the purpose of
01:20:44.460
immigration i'm not convinced that now is the right time okay um before we go i just want to
01:20:51.420
uh share some of your resources so people know where to find you uh you can find his uh channel on
01:20:59.260
youtube it's called nomad capitalist uh there's also a website called nomad capitalist so you can
01:21:05.900
definitely learn more about uh his services your typical customer is a high net worth individual um
01:21:13.420
what's the line in the sand for them to get a consult from your company
01:21:19.340
well so what we generally look for is is do you make half a million dollars a year or more
01:21:23.900
or do you have a million dollar net worth or more generally it's in the income because even the other
01:21:27.740
high net when people have the income yeah but one or the other um i will say i'm not really in
01:21:31.820
the consult business what i've done is i've honed over the years a process of four or five phone calls
01:21:36.860
um totaling you know eight nine ten hours of time with a whole bunch of questions that are both stock
01:21:43.820
questions and things that we come up with for each individual person and we go through a whole thing
01:21:48.060
you know i was talking to a guy in the citizenship business the other day and you come in here's
01:21:52.460
pictures of five beaches which one do you like the best you know that's a consult um i think that
01:21:57.980
when you look at combining your finances your immigration your investments and making it all work
01:22:03.500
so that canada plays nicely with portugal plays nicely with uae plays nicely with hong kong
01:22:08.460
uh you know you don't want to consult uh you want a real strategy okay um i did get on your
01:22:16.540
website a couple weeks ago when i was looking to schedule this time and uh with you and i've got
01:22:21.500
something in my inbox so i'll be i'll be doing one of my own um because i want to learn a little bit
01:22:26.620
more um do i end up speaking to you or is it somebody else on your team so what we've done now is
01:22:32.060
is before you you engage we have my senior most person who's uh ivana bakovich and she talks to
01:22:37.580
everybody and then once they're on boarded we generally have capacity for about nine or ten
01:22:41.740
people a month and then you start talking to me and i'm pretty involved in the strategy process
01:22:46.060
gotcha all right well andrew i want to thank you for uh your time um you know having a chat and getting
01:22:52.300
to know you a little bit better this is this is something that i think guys should be considering
01:22:57.180
or be interested in western countries do not treat men well um i've i've come to realize this
01:23:05.100
over the last few years especially since i've been red-pilled and um i like what andrew talks about
01:23:10.780
i like the ideas that he has about um you know if if a if a country or a government or the state or
01:23:18.300
a region doesn't give you what you need does not fill you cup does not allow you to behave in such a
01:23:24.540
way where you treat yourself as your own mental point of origin it's okay to leave you don't have
01:23:29.340
to stay somewhere and i think the notion of you know putting up with crap is something that some
01:23:35.260
guys are starting to realize that they don't need to do anymore um and that's fine so i'd invite you to
01:23:41.340
check out his resources i think he's got a great channel he puts out interesting content and thank you
01:23:46.460
again andrew mike can i speak to that for one second i appreciate it yeah yeah i mean so i've
01:23:53.020
talked once or twice about the you know the the social side of things i agree with what you're
01:23:58.140
saying i think i've been misinterpreted in the past because what i'm what my opinion on is is you know
01:24:03.740
for the red pill community uh you don't have to spend your life in misery i understand there's a lot
01:24:09.500
of bad stuff going on in and where you are in the us and what have you i understand it's uncomfortable
01:24:14.060
for a lot of guys but you know the opportunity is we've talked about all the financial and the
01:24:18.860
immigration benefits here i can promise you that the social world is different in other countries too
01:24:24.380
and you know if you want to stay where you're at and you want to make excuses uh and you want to you
01:24:29.980
know not do anything about this that's certainly your option i i decided one thing you said you know
01:24:34.540
about as i get older i don't want to be angry i don't want to be frustrated i don't want to be
01:24:38.380
picking fights with people i don't want to be like angry at the us government i just want to be free
01:24:42.540
and doing my own thing and i think that if you're not being treated well in your personal life
01:24:47.900
there are also places where you can go and you can find people who appreciate you find people who
01:24:52.140
share your values um and and that's what i've said historically that i think it's been sometimes
01:24:57.900
taken out of context by people who who just want to be frustrated you don't have to be and you
01:25:03.740
probably shouldn't be yeah that's uh that's a really great closing point so on that note i think
