What is up guys, it's Andy Priscilla and this is the show for the realists, say goodbye
00:00:20.640
to the lies, the fakeness and delusions of modern society and welcome to motherfucking
00:00:24.440
reality guys today. We have Q and AF, Q and AF is where you submit the questions and I
00:00:30.840
answer them. DJ, where can they submit their questions? Guys, email those questions into
00:00:36.860
askandy at andypriscilla.com. Yeah, do that. Okay. Make them about how to get better in
00:00:43.860
any which way, whether it be with your business, whether it be with your personal development,
00:00:47.600
whatever it is. Okay. Because we have a special recipe here at the show. And all of these little
00:00:54.280
formats that we do within the show work together to solve a collective problem, which is the
00:00:59.340
world is fucked up and somebody has got to fix it. So with Q and AF, which is what you're
00:01:03.900
listening to now, you're going to get my extensive success, entrepreneurship experience, life
00:01:11.120
experience answers. Okay. They're going to help you figure out how the fuck to become whatever
00:01:15.960
it is you're trying to become. Other times when you tune in, we're going to have CTI.
00:01:19.700
This is like, well, it's called CTI. We cruise the internet. We put up three headlines. We make
00:01:25.440
fun of them. Okay. We have senses of humor on this show. And we talk about the problem that is going
00:01:33.320
on in the world with each specific scenario. And then we talk about what can be done collectively
00:01:38.220
to solve this. And that goes back to what this show is about, which is how do we make ourselves
00:01:42.740
individually stronger? We combine those two together to fix the world's problems. Now we also have two
00:01:47.840
other formats. Sometimes I get on here and do a real talk. Real talk is five to 20 minutes of real
00:01:53.300
talk. All right. I'm going to, I'm going to hit you with what I think is important. Something that
00:01:57.080
I see needs to be addressed. Uh, basically it's all about how we need to be better or how you need
00:02:02.080
to think better or think different to get where it is you want to go. And then we have full length
00:02:07.080
and full length is like the 40 gazillion other podcasts out there where we bring people on and we
00:02:11.940
interview them. Uh, and we talk about how they got where they are, what they do, and basically try to,
00:02:18.500
uh, extract the theme of these motherfuckers are no different than you. Okay. Because the biggest
00:02:25.260
problem that you face is that you believe that these people who are doing great shit don't have
00:02:29.680
the exact same things that you have inside of you. And it's not true. All right. So our show is all
00:02:35.960
about improving culture, improving the world, uh, through individual responsibility and individual
00:02:42.460
growth. All right. Nobody's going to do that for you. Okay. I'm not doing it for you. I'm going to
00:02:46.360
give you the fucking information and you got to do it. Just listening to the show. Isn't going to do
00:02:50.180
a fucking thing for you. All right. So you're supposed to go out and put this into action. But
00:02:54.320
anyway, that is the gist of the show. We have a fee for the show. Okay. I don't run ads on the
00:02:59.200
show. And the reason I don't run ads on the show, um, there's a couple of reasons. One, I don't like
00:03:05.240
the fact that, you know, these podcasts have become 30 minutes of fucking ads, 30 minutes of
00:03:10.420
content. It's annoying. Uh, and it's overkill. And I could make eight figures a year based off
00:03:16.880
the traffic of the show, just running ads on it, but I'm not going to do it. And the other reason
00:03:20.580
I'm not going to do it is because I'm not going to be told, uh, things to say or not say to you
00:03:27.560
guys. Okay. I want you to understand that the message is pure comes from a place of me giving a
00:03:32.600
fuck. And a lot of people are confused why I get so passionate. Well, the reason I get so
00:03:36.740
passionate about the subject is because I am the American fucking dream. Okay. I started out with
00:03:43.140
little made it into a lot, created a whole bunch of good shit from our amazing country that we all
00:03:48.400
live in here in this, in this part of the world. And I want you to have the, at least the same
00:03:55.400
opportunities that I had. Okay. And we're not having that right now. Those are those freedoms are
00:04:00.460
being restricted and it pisses me the fuck off. So when I get angry, I understand that
00:04:04.840
I'm angry because they're taking your opportunity from you right in front of your fucking face
00:04:10.380
and you don't realize it yet. So get on board with that shit. Anyway. Yeah. What's up? What's
00:04:16.760
going on? Other man, like, like, you know, people are always, people are always like, dude,
00:04:21.640
what, what do you care so much? Well, fuck man. Like, I know what it's like to come from
00:04:27.460
fucking a two man operation to build a bunch of different companies that employ a whole bunch of
00:04:33.620
people that create a whole bunch of good. The ripple effect of that is immeasurable. And we're
00:04:39.780
having it taken from us by these corrupt politicians day in and day out. We're having it taken from us
00:04:45.680
because a lot of people, a lot of people that even listen to this show. Okay. Don't understand the
00:04:51.520
implications of, uh, the, the socio political environment on the ability for us to grow and
00:04:57.860
be successful. It's a symbiotic relationship. Right. That's right. So they look away and this
00:05:01.940
is why, you know, sometimes people are, well, I listen to all your Q and a S, but I don't listen
00:05:05.360
to real talk or I don't listen to a CTI. Well, you're making a mistake because the reason that we're in
00:05:11.780
this, this contentious scenario for success and growth is because a lot of you motherfuckers have
00:05:17.480
never paid attention to what's going on in the world, which has allowed a bunch of corrupt, evil,
00:05:21.520
uh, you know, predatory people to, to get into power and steal from us. Yeah. They're not just
00:05:30.000
stealing money. They're stealing opportunity and they're stealing the future plans for you and
00:05:33.580
your children. And I give a fuck about that. Yeah. So you could take all the fucking tools and
00:05:38.760
lessons, but you go try to run those ways. Like, why the fuck isn't this shit working? Well, bro,
00:05:42.740
that's because we're in communism. It doesn't work. It listen, we need fresh soil of fucking
00:05:49.360
freedom here. Yes, man. And we need people to care. Like the solution of all of this is going
00:05:55.020
to be the entrepreneur. Okay. It's not going to be the politician. It's not going to be Elon Musk.
00:06:01.260
It's not going to be these, it's going to be the small to medium size entrepreneurs that gather
00:06:06.240
together and decide we are fucking done with this shit and take the culture back through our own
00:06:12.200
companies. That is exactly how it's going to be done. And until entrepreneurs start to understand
00:06:17.740
that they need to live this shit every single fucking day, nothing's going to change. Yeah.
00:06:22.240
That's real. And the entrepreneurs should get behind that shit. That's right.
00:06:25.640
So anyway, I see it very clearly. Yeah. You know, it's real shit, man. Yeah. Anyway,
00:06:31.320
we got Q and AF today. Yeah. I got some good ones for you. Good. All right. Uh, let's get into this,
00:06:35.980
Andy. Question number one, uh, Andy, I believe, uh, that I am a high functioning individual,
00:06:41.060
but I'm surrounded by people with low frequency at my workplace, uh, heavy drinkers, non-gym goers.
00:06:47.360
I am a top performer at our brokerage and I'm proud of the strides I've made in my career.
00:06:51.640
But at the end of the day, there's a void, uh, that's left from a sense of culture that I felt
00:06:57.660
that I, like, I, I feel like I'm playing in a minor league baseball. Is there any advice to remedy this?
00:07:04.540
Well, yeah. Are you a real leader? Are you not a leader? Real leaders fix the culture,
00:07:09.740
fake ass leader, individualists fucking complain about it. Real leaders pull people with them.
00:07:15.700
Real leaders take people to the gym, real people, real leaders sit down with people in the office
00:07:20.340
who want to be better and show them how real leaders fucking create the culture. It's action.
00:07:24.840
They don't cry about the culture. Okay. So what it sounds like to me is that you have done very
00:07:30.960
well in your own leading yourself. And now it's time to grow into becoming a leader of men and women.
00:07:36.180
And that's great. Yeah. Oh, no, no, no. I'm not. Listen, don't take that as I'm knocking you.
00:07:40.900
Yeah. This is a normal process. Nobody comes out of the gate fucking leading everybody else. Right.
00:07:46.180
The first step to becoming a great leader is what you got to lead yourself. All right. So you cannot,
00:07:51.780
this is the, this is why the saving that Vince Lombardi said, fucking whatever, 70 years ago,
00:07:57.360
uh, leading by example is not the, not the best way to win. It's the only way to win.
00:08:01.680
Yeah. It's the only way to lead. You know what I'm saying? Like, dude, but that has to be
00:08:06.040
individually first. Yeah. Right. And then it grows into the people. And so like, this is something
00:08:11.840
that a lot of people mistake because they get a title of leadership or they think they're a leader
00:08:16.820
because they're winning in one area of their life. Right. They're, they're, they're setting records
00:08:21.400
at work, but the rest, you know, they, they're fucking 30 pounds, 50 pounds, a hundred pounds overweight.
00:08:26.240
Something's lagging. Right. Their relationship or bullshit, you know, they're out drinking all the time.
00:08:30.560
They're fucking broke. Look, this is a process and not everybody goes through it at the same pace.
00:08:36.280
So I'm not trying to knock whoever asked that question, the valid question, but you need to
00:08:40.960
understand that if you want to be a real leader and you want to take your value to the next level,
00:08:44.760
right, you're doing well. Okay. I'm doing good. Yeah. And you want to get to that better level.
00:08:49.040
You have to learn to lead because there's only two fucking skills that pay big bucks, bro.
00:08:53.460
And that's fucking sales and management or leadership. And it sounds like you've got the sales part,
00:08:59.260
maybe down, but the leadership part is weak. And I can tell by the way you're asking the question, right?
00:09:04.660
Yeah. Like I'm going to walk in a room, you see how I operate. I'm going to walk in a room and I'm
00:09:09.460
going to fucking say, Hey, this is why you fucking suck. And by the way, this is why you suck. And this
00:09:14.420
is why you suck. And you know what? I got this to work on. This is my shit that I suck on. So let's all
00:09:19.240
fucking, let's all fucking work together to get all of our, our standards up. Yeah. Right.
00:09:23.960
So like it's, it, you cannot lead people until you lead yourself, which this guy's in a good
00:09:29.500
position or whoever this is, a woman, I don't know. Um, and, and you've got that settled. So
00:09:35.480
now you're in a great position, a great platform to leap off into the leadership in your culture.
00:09:40.160
Right. And by the way, um, if you can lead the culture inside of an organization,
00:09:44.880
you're extremely valuable. Yeah. Right. Yeah. So now you got a team that's fucking winning.
00:09:51.380
That's correct. Team in great shape. Yeah, bro. And now, and you know what the most valuable
00:09:54.320
school skill is being inside of a company, the most valuable skill is being able to replicate
00:09:59.980
winners. If you can take people inside of a company and you can replicate yourself in them
00:10:06.200
and create them a bunch of winners, bro, you're fucking invaluable. You're in valuable because
00:10:11.480
you're like a winner machine, right? Like, like it's real common to get one or two individuals
00:10:17.440
who are really good. It's very rare to have one of those two individuals be able to replicate
00:10:22.160
their winning in person after person, after person, after person, because people's egos get
00:10:26.740
involved, right? People, people don't like to bring people up to their level because they they're
00:10:32.500
threatened by it. When in reality, if you actually bring people up to your level, they will lift you
00:10:37.560
up higher. So you have to get over your own ego. If you want to be a leader and understand that the
00:10:42.380
laws of reciprocity are at play there, when people understand that you created their skill set,
00:10:48.680
they will never try to, you know, occasionally they'll try to challenge you or whatever.
00:10:52.520
Yeah. But like, dude, those are one, that's one out of fucking every 500, right? You're going to
00:10:57.040
have that over the course of your time. You're going to build someone up and they're going to try to
00:10:59.960
fuck with you because of it. But those people aren't, they're not picking up the real lessons.
00:11:04.240
You know what I'm saying? Right. That's ego. Right. So like you, you deal with those one or two
00:11:09.380
people every five fucking years and then you move the fuck on and you keep doing it, you know? But
00:11:14.940
at the end of the, the end of the day, the answer is how good of a leader do you want to be? Do you
00:11:21.040
want to be the guy that comes to work and, you know, feel superior because you're in better shape
00:11:27.120
and you're earning more money and your life is in order? Or do you want to be the person that
00:11:31.180
comes to work and makes everybody fucking better? Because that's the, that's the decision that this
00:11:35.520
person has. Opportunity. Yeah. And the opportunity, there's massive opportunity there
00:11:39.280
because if you can learn the skill of replicating leadership, bro, it does, you, you might be able
00:11:44.060
to take that fucking skill and elevate your career 10 fold or a hundred fold because it's so rare.
00:11:50.860
It's so rare because humans let their ego get in the way and they start feeling threatened, bro.
00:11:56.120
This is why I do, this is why I do this show. This is why I do our tape, bro. I give away every
00:12:01.320
motherfucking piece and there's nothing I hold back. Right. Because I know if I give you the information
00:12:06.620
and you get good enough to come with me, bro, we're going to figure out a way to work together.
00:12:10.340
Right. So that's, there has to be a selflessness and a confidence to real leadership. And you have
00:12:19.040
to give without feeling like you're have to hold the secrets back because so-and-so might like,
00:12:25.220
you know what I'm saying? Use that shit on me. Yeah. Like, dude, I get asked that all the time.
00:12:28.060
They're like, bro, I want to meet with you and like pick your brain. I'm like, why?
00:12:31.040
Hmm. Well, you know, I just want to pick your brain. Well, first of all, bro, uh, a cup of
00:12:36.200
coffee with me is worth about fucking $10 million. Okay. So you're going to fucking pay me. Right.
00:12:40.660
Cause I'm going to give you all this. Like, I can't fucking stand when people do that. Oh,
00:12:44.260
Hey, can I take y'all for a cup of coffee? Oh, that's all my time is worth a cup of coffee.
00:12:48.180
Exactly. Motherfucker. I'm going to give you information. I'm going to show you how to
00:12:50.440
build a fucking empire. Right. Okay. Right. So stop doing that. It's an amateur move. Okay.
00:12:55.880
Secondly, you don't need to do that with me because I tell you motherfuckers that right,
00:13:00.520
because this I'm mission-based and my mission is we all need to win to restore the culture of
00:13:06.120
greatness to this fucking country. So like, I give you the shit. All right. Anyway, become a better
00:13:14.440
fucking leader, change the culture. That's, that's the, that's the next step for this individual.
00:13:19.140
Yeah. Andy, question number two, Andy, my husband started his major construction business three
00:13:26.700
years ago. And by all means, he's killing it. During all of the COVID BS, I left the medical
00:13:32.240
field as a nurse and helped my husband with his business. I love having his back and supporting him.
00:13:37.220
However, I've had a calling to start my own business of which he is very supportive. My question is,
00:13:43.140
how can I start this new business venture for myself and still support him? Uh, even though I
00:13:48.520
won't be able to be as hands-on as I once was, look, man, you got to go where the fucking gold is.
00:14:01.120
Okay. This is reality. Entrepreneurship is not about fun. It's not about passion. It's not about
00:14:08.180
feeling good. It's about producing a fucking result. And none of you out there are so good that you could
00:14:16.400
just start a whole bunch of shit and produce the result. Okay. I just want you to understand that
00:14:20.680
a lot of people fuck this up and, and I'm not shitting on anybody. Okay. I need you to understand
00:14:26.420
this very clearly. We, this is an energy, uh, capital issue. All right. Everybody only has so much
00:14:34.940
energy to pour into things. All right. And if you have a hundred units of energy and I have a hundred
00:14:40.660
units of energy and I'm only putting in 70 units because I'm distracted by this other thing over
00:14:46.160
here, even if I'm more skilled than you and you're putting a hundred units of energy into the
00:14:51.520
project, you're going to defeat me. Right. This is, this is real shit. Okay. This is a law of,
00:14:57.980
this is fucking natural order. This is how it works because no, and people will say, well,
00:15:02.720
you know, there's room enough for everybody. Yeah. That's what losers say, bro. Okay. Like for real,
00:15:06.660
nobody winning fucking says that. Okay. Now is there really room enough for everybody? Yeah,
00:15:12.040
there is. But remember, I'm talking about the perspective from trying to be the absolute
00:15:16.120
fucking best. I'm not talking about just being effective or making a little bit of money or
00:15:20.740
existing talking about being fucking great. That's where I speak from. So when you have the
00:15:26.920
perspective of, I want to dominate, you have to be dedicated and focused. That's something to
00:15:33.300
understand. And the reason I want to preface the answer with that explanation is because I see a lot
00:15:38.400
of people fuck this up. Right. And it comes from this attitude that we see online that always comes
00:15:44.320
from motherfuckers that aren't, haven't done shit that say, Oh, the average millionaire is fucking
00:15:48.540
got seven streams of fucking income. Right. And they make all these kids feel like if you don't
00:15:52.720
have seven streams of income, you can't fucking. And what ends up happening is these people end up
00:15:57.960
watering down their focus and their energy and their efforts and their resources across the spectrum of
00:16:02.760
many different projects, which allows none of their projects to materialize. So with that being said,
00:16:10.080
if your husband is killing it and he's not where it depends on how far off of what killing it is
00:16:18.160
for you guys, because I'm, I'm talking from a perspective. I'm, I'm speaking from a platform of,
00:16:25.020
I want to be the best. Okay. That is always my goal. And they have, I accomplished that goal.
00:16:29.980
Absolutely not. I have a long way to go, but that's where I, that's my mentality. Yeah.
00:16:35.360
A lot of people, it's not that way. A lot of people, they just want to, they want to make a,
00:16:39.140
you know, a good living. They want to be comfortable and they want to have more balance.
00:16:42.200
And because of that, they will make less money and that is okay as well. All right. But you have
00:16:46.940
to understand the game before you get in the game. All right. So, so if your goal is to build that
00:16:51.440
construction business, to be the best fucking construction business ever, or the best in your town,
00:16:56.160
that might require some sacrifices, his own personal dreams, right? If he's doing good and
00:17:03.740
you guys are good where he's at, my advice would be to, to keep aggressively growing the company with
00:17:08.980
as much effort as he and his team can put in and then work to create a team that will help pick up
00:17:16.640
the slack of where you won't be able to put your attention on it. Okay. And then you, you, you are free
00:17:23.840
to go do what you want to do, which by the way, if it's, if it's, maybe it's a better idea than the
00:17:28.680
construction company. So like, I want to make, I want to make sure I'm not like shitting on your
00:17:33.380
idea. I'm just making you understand the reality of how you can fuck up by spreading yourself too
00:17:39.660
thin because then we have an energy resource that has a limit every single day. Okay. So, uh, what I
00:17:46.460
would do here, if you are assuming you are bent on making sure that your dreams happen and the
00:17:52.860
construction company does the best it can is I would scale out a team with the construction
00:17:58.160
company that is very well trained, that does everything that you do. Um, and then help that
00:18:03.760
supplement that. And then you are free to go. No, you got more units. That's correct. Yeah. And
00:18:08.260
that's how you leverage the energy. Yeah. That's, that's fucking right. And I, that's exactly what
00:18:12.480
you did when you scaled from, you know, one business to now two business. Once, once you start
00:18:17.080
moving up, that's exactly how you do it. Yeah, bro. I'm going through it. Like with my personal
00:18:20.340
brands now, like we're getting ready to launch all this new shit that you know about, we've
00:18:23.560
been talking about on the show. Like there's, I've been kind of laying dormant and focusing
00:18:28.200
all my energy on the socio political game. And this, this particular podcast, I haven't
00:18:32.880
been doing content on YouTube. I haven't been doing content on IG, by the way, that's all
00:18:36.760
intentional. Um, because I knew what the fuck I was going to do with this. So, uh, you
00:18:43.520
know, now I'm launching, we're launching many different projects, right? So I have to supplement
00:18:49.640
an Emily, by the way, who runs all of that. See, people don't understand that she runs
00:18:55.280
all my personal brand shit. She has her own business. Okay. So one of the things that we're
00:19:01.820
dealing with now is how to build, I want like, I'm, and by the way, you guys are the ones that
00:19:07.800
answer to her. How hard is it to replace that? Oh, it's fucking very difficult because she's
00:19:12.400
very good at what she does. So we're going to have to start to work to create, it's not
00:19:16.820
bad. Yeah. No, it's, it's real shit. Like even if she, if we weren't married, it would
00:19:21.800
be the same value. Yeah. So we have to replace that with some quality people that are trained
00:19:29.080
properly. This is a discussion that her and I have consistently so that she's not fucking
00:19:33.460
run to the ground and she can focus on her things like freedom reads and her paper and
00:19:37.940
plan co and things like that. You see what I'm saying? So we have to supplement it out
00:19:42.360
and it really, it comes down to building the team properly. Um, but also like if we
00:19:49.340
were in a lesser position, right? Like let's say, let's say we weren't, uh, where we are
00:19:54.500
with my personal brand, or let's say, uh, my other companies were way less, uh, successful
00:20:00.720
than they are. And we were still in that, like, Holy fuck. We're, we're, we're, we're just
00:20:04.440
hanging on phase, which lasted for fucking 12 years. Um, I would tell her, Hey, we can't
00:20:11.140
afford to do this, this yet this other thing yet. Yeah. You know what I'm saying? And
00:20:15.340
by the way, we had that discussion 10 fucking years ago. Right. You see what I'm saying?
00:20:19.940
Absolutely. So, so it's all about being smart and strategic and planning. Um, but understand,
00:20:27.040
and this is the fundamental thing when you're competing with someone who's a hundred percent
00:20:32.160
focused and you're not focused in the same way you're going to lose no matter how much
00:20:35.480
better you are than them. And that's the important thing to understand here. Yeah. I love
00:20:39.480
it. Uh, guys, Andy, our third and final question, uh, question number three, I opened my own
00:20:47.640
business in 2016. When I was 23 years old, I ran the business until March of 2020 when
00:20:54.220
sales went to virtually zero and I was forced to close our doors. I'm now almost 30 with
00:21:00.220
a huge amount of personal debt, but I'm determined to get into business for myself again, but I feel
00:21:06.980
paralyzed by the debt and I'm unsure how to move towards that goal. What are some actionable
00:21:11.320
steps that you would recommend to start moving again towards my goal?
00:21:15.200
Well, first of all, realize that like you're the fact that you did that before you were 30
00:21:19.800
is amazing. Okay. The fact that you grew and lost a business before 30 is amazing.
00:21:26.720
Most people would fucking hear like, this sounds crazy.
00:21:29.020
Let me finish what I was going to say. Um, I failed eight fucking businesses before my first
00:21:33.180
one fucking started. You know how many, you know how many things I did through high school
00:21:37.060
that failed? Like I all, I tell you guys like, bro, I was a kid who was out selling fucking
00:21:41.960
lemonade, snow cones, popsicles, light bulbs, but bro, this shit is in me. Okay. So all through
00:21:48.680
high school, I was trying to do these different things, none of which were, and one of which
00:21:53.400
lost, I lost, um, one of which I lost $8,000 that I didn't have. It put me in $8,000 debt.
00:22:00.740
The other one, I lost 60,000, which I didn't have. And the way I got to 60,000 was someone
00:22:06.080
gave me $2,000 for high school graduation. I invested in fucking AOL stock market. Uh,
00:22:15.080
And then I went on spring break and while I was listening, while I was on spring break,
00:22:18.620
the market crashed because I wasn't watching. I lost it all. And I had that money accounted
00:22:23.180
for to fucking do these other things I was doing. And I had to eat the shit. Okay. So
00:22:27.760
yeah, especially a fucking 18 years old. Yeah. Okay. So, so I was lucky enough to have those
00:22:36.700
experiences like literally in my teenage years so that I, and this is what I'm talking about.
00:22:42.280
I learned so much through those fucking failures and looking like at the time they felt insurmountable
00:22:49.900
because like, dude, when I started fucking S2 back in 1999, I had 60 fucking thousand dollars
00:22:55.920
of credit card debt, 60 at fucking 19 years old. People don't think about that. Yeah. You know,
00:23:01.620
that, that dude, you know, you don't think I was fucking scared, bro. I let the fear make me the fear
00:23:07.760
is what made me not quit because I knew I had to pay the shit back. Yeah. You know? Yeah. So
00:23:13.840
the fact that, that you've learned it. And by the way, I was ultra fucking fortunate to learn those
00:23:20.420
lessons before I was 20. Okay. But when you're 30, you're still fucking super young. Yeah. So
00:23:26.660
you, what you just did, bro, was you learn a shit ton in a very short amount of time,
00:23:34.100
which if you could sit down and talk about all the things you learn and write them down and think
00:23:38.840
about all the things you learn and continue to put productive things in your brain and build upon
00:23:44.100
those lessons and add to the skills that you learn, that's only going to make you that much more
00:23:49.360
equipped to win. See, the problem is, is that when these things happen to people, most people just
00:23:54.000
fucking roll over and they're done for life. Yeah. Right. This most, and this is, I would say
00:23:58.860
upwards of 90% of people would tell that story for the rest of their fucking lives. It just stops
00:24:05.820
there. Fuck yeah. Dude, bro. Real talk. Real talk. How many people do you know like that? Yeah. How
00:24:13.220
many people do you all know like that? I'm talking to the guys in the studio that had the one thing
00:24:17.260
and they, and they were like, yeah, back, back in 82, man, fucking stock market went south and
00:24:23.260
that was it. That was it, man. So here I am. It's like, bro, it's 2022. Right. You know,
00:24:28.680
but yeah, bro, we see this with the 2008 crisis, right? Like how many motherfuckers still talk
00:24:33.580
about 2008, how they lost all the shit a lot. Oh bro. I got killed in that. And you know,
00:24:40.460
yeah, but we just have four years, a great fucking economy. That was fucking 12 years ago,
00:24:46.020
bro. We could fucking start our own country and invade the rest of the country and take
00:24:49.600
them over in 12 fucking years. Like, bro, get the fuck out of here with that shit. Okay.
00:24:54.360
And, and, and so I commend whoever this is for understanding like, Hey dude, I want to
00:25:00.260
go again because that's what it's about. That's really what it's about. It's about fucking picking
00:25:05.000
yourself up off the ground saying, you know what? I learned a whole bunch of shit. Now these
00:25:09.420
people are in fucking deep shit. Yeah. Right. Yeah. And that's how, that's how I look at every
00:25:13.500
dude, dude, you guys got to understand when the bigger you get, the harder the punches are going
00:25:19.000
to, are going to be the big bro. People hate success. They hate people that win. They hate
00:25:24.920
people that have a big mouth. They, they fucking bro. I got all the fucking checkbox.
00:25:31.500
You know what I'm saying? Like bro, some people fucking hate me just because I'm me and that's
00:25:37.460
reality. And they do things to fuck with me and fuck, you know, fuck my shit up. But every time I
00:25:42.380
learn a new lesson about how to fucking be better, you know, you know, like it's a choice. Yeah,
00:25:46.720
dude, that's it. It's how you look at it. And, and dude, uh, you know, how, how do you practically
00:25:53.360
move forward? Like you said, practical tips and, uh, wake up tomorrow and fucking go at it.
00:25:58.780
Yeah. Right. Okay. Start working, start, you know, have a plan to start moving that debt down
00:26:03.260
by becoming wealthier and making more money and becoming successful because dude, like, you know,
00:26:09.240
I was saying a minute ago, what, what felt devastating for me at 19 years old, you know,
00:26:15.700
now in my forties, I'm like 60 grand. Like that's it. You see what I'm saying? Yeah. Like
00:26:22.840
that's where, like, I agonized over that for years. Like it probably fucked like, and now
00:26:30.040
I'm like, because I kept moving and I kept, now I'm like, bro, you were really dumb for getting
00:26:35.040
that worried about it. Yeah. You see what I'm saying? Like, so if you keep moving, dude,
00:26:38.800
it's going to work out, but you have to be smart enough not to make the same mistakes that you made
00:26:43.580
the first time. You have to be able to identify the lessons of your failure and you have to be
00:26:48.280
willing to get up and fucking go. And like most people won't get up and go again because they're
00:26:52.060
embarrassed because their friends saw them fail or their family saw them fail or the internet saw them
00:26:56.560
fail. And the reality is, bro, people love a fucking comeback. They love it more than a fucking
00:27:01.080
regular success. So you got an opportunity here that, uh, many people never get. And I,
00:27:07.460
I actually think you're super fortunate to have had that experience so young with so much
00:27:11.660
fucking future ahead of you. Yeah. That's fine. I love it. Yeah. Guys, Andy, that's three. Yeah.
00:27:20.080
Share the show. Don't be a hoe. That's right. And by the way, this is Monday. Uh, you're supposed
00:27:26.560
to vote tomorrow. And if you don't vote tomorrow, um, and you think there's a big red wave or there's
00:27:32.080
a bunch of people coming to save you or somehow everybody else is going to take care of it,
00:27:36.200
you were sorely mistaken because it is my opinion that these people will cheat if the elections are
00:27:41.520
close. So if you are tired of all the bullshit, if you were tired of the economic destruction,
00:27:46.320
if you're tired of all the intentional destruction going on in this country, and it is intentional,
00:27:50.340
okay, wake the fuck up. All right, go fucking vote. Get your fucking mom, get your dad,
00:27:55.780
get your grandma, get, dig them out of the graves like they do. Listen, I don't give a fuck. I'm
00:28:00.860
being dead serious, bro. We better get every motherfucking person out there to go vote. I don't
00:28:05.260
give a fuck. I don't give a fuck. They fucking do the shit. Whatever we, we, they cannot stay in
00:28:11.200
power. We will lose this fucking country. And all the shit I just taught you about success
00:28:14.740
will not matter. So get your fucking people and go fucking vote.
00:28:19.200
Yeah. Went from sleeping on the floor. Now my jewelry box froze. Fuck a bowl. Fuck a
00:28:25.080
stove. Counted millions in the cold. Bad bitch. Booty's woke. Got her on bankroll. Can't
