00:00:38.220 this neighborhood in new hampshire which is like kind of the dopest neighborhood in the state and

00:00:43.380 when i was still living in that apartment my first car was like this 1988 volvo that i bought for 400

00:00:59.020 house in the neighborhood 2017 my neighbor across the street sells his business which was a staffing

00:01:05.300 company for like 300 million and dude again this like this idea of like showing up of self-education

00:01:13.400 of figuring it out in 2017 like i didn't understand a single thing about selling a business i if you

00:01:20.640 said i didn't know what private equity was i didn't know i knew nothing about any of this

00:01:24.520 but i would just watch this dude cash a 300 million dollar fucking check so what'd you do 0.96

00:13:16.520 people that listen right and they're they're they're listening and they're they're in the process

00:13:20.480 i mean what do you like if you had to like i know this is kind of putting you on the spot a little

00:13:24.620 bit with coming up with some things but like what do you what do you think the most important skill

00:13:29.500 sets like if you had to name like let's say three that you that you personally have that have helped

00:13:36.000 you go from you know basically less than zero okay like really in a really bad spot addicted to drugs

00:13:42.800 where everybody doesn't want to be to where everybody does want to be where you're living

00:13:47.560 in an oceanfront property in miami one of the coolest cities on the earth you're driving the

00:13:52.260 coolest shit you're flying on your own fucking airplane yeah i mean what what if you like if i was 0.98

00:13:58.800 fucking you know 17 bro and i'm my life is a fucking wreck right now or 25 my life is a wreck 0.99

00:14:05.420 what would you say to those people

00:14:08.260 the uncommon path it produces an uncommon life like the amount of decisions that i had to do that

00:14:17.900 when my life was a wreck i had to look you know your life is your life those people that i was with

00:14:22.880 at the time were my friends i had to look at all of them and say i gotta go and i can never speak to

00:14:26.920 you again or it's gonna be a long time before we do and you know i my entire 20s and i got sober

00:14:34.700 almost 22 years old my entire 20s i never went to a nightclub i never went out i never like i just

00:14:42.180 lived in a very unorthodox manner which at the time like i love the stuff you talk about like i

00:14:48.920 started my business before myspace there's no instagram there was no none of that gives you a

00:14:54.140 massive a massive advantage over everybody these days yeah but three attributes i think resiliency

00:14:59.800 right you have to be resilient like resiliency mixed with optimism like getting up and getting

00:15:05.480 punched in the face every fucking day and doing it again tomorrow work ethic which is kind of what 0.93

00:15:10.640 i was talking about about like being able to go the extra mile and and however you want to look

00:15:15.500 at it sacrifice or make the investment in your business and in your future um and back to that

00:15:21.480 ability to learn like you really are limited by your capacity in which you can learn and so like right

00:15:29.300 now i hang out or i i i seek mentorship and guidance from people like you and and guys that are worth

00:15:37.360 hundreds and hundreds of millions of dollars and billions of dollars and they think in an entirely

00:15:43.500 different way a billionaire what i've realized thinks entirely different than someone that just cracked

00:15:49.960 into a hundred million nine figure or a deca millionaire or a millionaire like and so just

00:15:55.840 that self-limiting mindset being able to remove that and continue to learn and grow and self-educate

00:16:03.560 dude i i i really i really like your view on the the self-education part of it because

00:16:11.280 it's funny because we live in this time where we have access to more information than we've ever had

00:16:17.920 but we also live in a time where people are utilizing the information available less less

00:16:24.200 than they ever have isn't that unbelievable it's weird isn't it it's so weird and i i so i did a

00:16:29.720 little coaching thing so i talked to a lot of entrepreneurs and i'm like do you understand

00:16:32.920 i used to go to the fucking library and use what was called the dewey decimal system to find a fucking 0.93

00:16:39.760 book on a shelf to fucking take it home and read it or i would sit in barnes and noble because i 0.95

00:16:46.080 couldn't afford the book like you can literally look in your phone and and have access to all

00:16:50.700 this information and and they just take it for granted dude it's that's i think i think there's a

00:16:56.660 massive advantage for people like you and me who have had to to survive and and thrive as ambitious

00:17:05.140 driven people without the internet i think it's a massive fucking advantage bro me me running my 0.97

00:17:12.420 business that first seven or eight years before like social media really became a thing because

00:17:17.540 remember facebook was just for college kids and it wasn't for the public at first it was for

00:17:22.460 university students yeah instagram wasn't a fucking thing so it was facebook and that was really it my 0.97

00:17:28.780 space okay which was like what 2007 8 8 9 like that wasn't like it wasn't applicable for any sort of

00:17:36.880 business growth that's right it was just your friends right and the which by the way i kind of

00:17:42.360 missed that about social media that was much better social media tom bring it back bro bring it back

00:17:47.020 open the algorithm top friends yeah the bet bro top friends i'll keep you my top friends this time bro

00:17:52.540 poor tom but like dude those those guys i know those guys actually and they should bring it back

00:18:00.440 but anyhow um the point is is that like dude you know i try to explain this to these younger people

00:18:08.600 and they just don't fucking get it like bro i had to go fucking heel toe my fat ass around fucking 0.99

00:18:15.060 springfield missouri knocking on fucking doors bro saying hey guys uh i'm andy who the fuck is andy 0.99

00:18:23.060 like no one gives a fuck who andy is back then oh you're disturbing my fucking whatever right and i'm like 0.98

00:18:28.920 well you know if you ever want to get in shape like we got this like dude i did that for years

00:18:33.020 yeah you know what i'm saying like there it's just different and i'm very thankful that i grew up

00:18:40.800 without it because now i'm like equipped to do whatever the fuck i need to do do you know what also 0.82

00:18:45.620 um falls in the same line of that is the fact that both you and i lived and worked and grinded and

00:18:52.000 hustled through 08 09 yeah through that recession deal and so huge deal right now huge because of

00:18:58.840 everything that is happening now and what's to come yeah i just did a story on this on fucking 0.96

00:19:54.040 of thousands of dollars i know this has got it like i'm sorry but this has to be the dumbest shit 0.93

00:20:02.200 i've ever heard my entire fucking life dude when i saw that happen i was like this is definitely the 0.92

00:20:44.800 what we're having yeah you motherfuckers what the shit's falling apart which it actually is and you're 0.97

00:20:50.920 gonna have to be tactful to move through it but it'll still be there separate the real from the

00:20:55.500 dude and i can't wait i can't either i can't wait i can't either dude when i for the last eight

00:21:01.480 fucking years i've seen on the internet all these fucking guys who don't do shit who don't have a 0.99

00:21:07.320 company they don't ship a product they don't have a real service i've seen them making millions of

00:21:12.920 dollars repeating and regurgitating shit that i've said yeah shit that i've said personally that i 0.87

00:21:19.480 learned from growing actual companies i see them repeating the shit and charging people for it 0.73

00:21:25.160 you motherfuckers are gonna get your fucking ass beat like that's reality like you guys the people 0.99

00:21:30.560 get your teeth kicked in those people are and most of them i'm 38 years old and so in i was 23 in 2008

00:21:39.300 and most 23 year olds in 2008 were not starting businesses right they were all fucking off yeah 0.89

00:21:44.040 whatever it is they did and so you gotta think like everyone younger than me has done not not much

00:21:51.660 recollection of what that was like that's what i'm saying like they don't know like dude they don't

00:21:58.100 know they didn't watch people go out and try to get a job for nine months doing interviews every

00:22:05.300 other day yeah they didn't see people lose their fucking homes because they got laid off they're 0.91

00:22:10.600 still not they're starting feeling that kind of pain yet like it hasn't even started hasn't even

00:22:14.600 started yeah dude and everyone who's been around long enough that i've talked to shares the same

00:22:19.880 thing that we agree upon that this hasn't even started no dude because they never seen it yeah

00:22:24.720 people never saw it like dude i like how much worse can it get a lot fucking worse dude and all 0.92

00:22:29.440 you motherfuckers out there saying well i don't feel like working or i don't feel like you know 0.90

00:22:34.020 going into the office or i don't this or that i hope you fucking starve bro you well they're gonna 0.98

00:22:38.340 starve i know they're these people have we we in the united states of america what we're suffering with

00:22:44.620 right now is an embarrassment of fucking riches okay we've been so fucking financially successful 0.84

00:22:51.060 as a country that a literal moron could make money doing it over the last they were with pictures

00:22:57.860 of monkeys yes dude for real i'm serious i drove me nuts so dude now we're getting back into a

00:23:05.060 competitive atmosphere where people are going to be discerning with where they spend their money

00:23:09.180 yeah they're going to protect their money they're going to be careful where they spend it they're

00:23:13.320 going to spend it with certain people that they like they're going to support causes with their

00:23:17.360 dollars like dude we're moving into a completely different environment and all these spoiled

00:23:23.260 people who fucking you know they're saying shit like oh dude you know i think i'm just going to 0.98

00:23:28.720 travel the world in a fucking van and experience bro you guys are fucked fucked you're so fucked 1.00

00:23:33.580 it's going to get so fucking hard to earn money because money is going to become scarce scarce and

00:23:38.740 people are going to protect it they're not going to spend it on your fucking bullshit coaching if you 0.96

00:23:43.520 don't have real shit because dude the real killers they see this as an opportunity 100x they see it 0.69

00:23:49.160 as like fuck like dude most of these people are saying well we're gonna we're gonna show you how 0.90

00:23:53.640 to survive motherfucker no if you're thinking about it the right way this is where you leverage up and

00:23:58.840 you level from where you are to maybe maybe two or three levels higher than you are because everybody

00:24:04.360 else stops everybody else goes in their turtle shell and says fuck dude it's scary out there and 0.91

00:24:10.480 and dude what happens is they never come the fuck back out they never come out you know a lot of the 0.68

00:24:15.200 stuff that you talk about with politics and what's going on in the world and all of that is so spot on

00:24:19.840 and it really it it makes me think of when we came through 2008 9 10 the world was never the fucking 0.95

00:24:26.840 same again yeah it was this transitioning period that a lot of things fucking changed and we're going 0.93

00:24:33.040 into another winter another dark time that the same thing's going to happen and what what has happened

00:24:38.620 is the separation of wealth and the death of the middle class and so like is it wrong yeah like

00:24:46.080 there's so many principles of philosophy and ideologies that we could fucking stand on and be

00:24:50.700 pissed off and fucking bang the table over of our you know patriotism and all this stuff but at the 0.98

00:24:56.880 end of the day the game's the game yeah and you better learn how to fucking play to win yeah and 0.91

00:25:01.380 you're gonna get caught out there yeah and you're gonna fucking die and you have to learn how to do it in 0.93

00:25:06.200 an environment that's the rules that apply five years ago do not apply anymore yeah they don't

00:25:11.280 apply anymore and you're still seeing people say the shit they were saying five years ago not

00:25:16.020 understanding that we're moving into a completely different environment dude it's easy to fucking 0.88

00:25:20.280 sell widgets when everybody's got money to waste on widgets yep it's a completely different thing to

00:25:25.480 sell widgets that nobody fucking needs when nobody has any money you're gonna start great example of 0.92

00:25:32.520 that is i'm in miami and i got all these people that are fucking printing money during this good 0.96

00:25:37.660 times this last few years in the airbnb space either renting or owning fucking spaces putting them out 0.94

00:25:44.380 on airbnb and blah blah you know how many times i've heard about the missed opportunity that i've had

00:25:49.440 bro you know what i own i own fucking b-class residential fucking real estate c fuck single family 0.99

00:25:56.320 homes and apartments most of it's section eight yeah i'm doing just fine yeah because there's always

00:26:03.500 a need for that there's always a need for that that's what i'm trying and i'm in health care

00:26:06.960 services like that's what i'm thinking into this yeah it's also that's sort of vertically integrating

00:26:11.440 your business yeah if we're being real i know most of the drug problem is in those communities so

00:26:17.140 well the drug problem that we see there's a completely different drug problem at the top and nobody

00:26:21.880 talks about at all levels yeah yeah um but the you know when when we really think about it dude

00:26:30.180 you know you guys who are out there selling bullshit like like and dude you could see it like you can 0.59

00:26:36.240 see it coming and unraveling because you're seeing people who at least i'm seeing it i'm pretty perceptive

00:26:44.060 and i think i'm more perceptive than the average person when it comes to this but you're seeing people

00:26:48.980 who have been around on the internet for a while starting to like come up with all these different

00:26:54.300 ways to sell shit like it's this shit that they weren't doing before and what i see is panic i see 0.76

00:27:01.060 okay what they were doing isn't selling quite the same way because there wasn't real value in it

00:27:05.880 because they were taking advantage of the uh the good weather economically right like people had cash

00:27:11.900 they're willing to throw a little bit over here even if it doesn't have a whole lot of value

00:27:14.940 i'll try this out now we're dealing with entire protected class of currency right like people have

00:27:21.540 less money so they spend their it's not that they spend less it's that they're more selective on where

00:27:26.140 they spend the money and so i'm seeing all these people now trying to like adjust what they do

00:27:30.560 like i'm seeing dudes who sold like coaching now all of a sudden talk like shit that they there's not 0.77

00:27:36.320 their core thing all of a sudden they're they're selling it you're seeing a lot of these influencers for

00:27:40.640 the last seven years who were making big money representing other products and then got too big

00:27:46.400 to fucking really like be a part of those things and you're seeing them go back to their roots and 0.76

00:27:50.660 try to like really hustle again and dude so i'm starting to see the panic start to happen but like

00:27:55.560 bro you guys you have no idea how bad that's going to get because it's going to get way worse and it's

00:28:00.220 going to get to the point where you know this is why i say like if you're a small business and you can

00:28:05.020 stay on the gas right now there's a tremendous opportunity for you to pick up quality talent

00:28:09.700 because a lot of the quality talent at some of these other businesses that aren't managed or

00:28:13.700 thought or philosophically uh led properly strategically led properly those people are

00:28:19.740 being laid off or they're leaving so like dude i'm looking at it as a massive opportunity for

00:28:24.440 everything that i'm in it's like pick up quality people gain massive market share uh go in when

00:28:30.260 everybody else pulls back you know like yeah it's i'm excited i think it's i know it's going to be hard

00:28:36.080 but like dude i'm built for the fucking fight i i love the fight bro when shit's good i get bored 0.99

00:28:40.740 like like when it like when shit like for the last six or seven years where it was just like 0.71

00:28:45.780 it was just easy it was boring like i'm a fucking fighter bro like i'm built for the fucking battle 0.98

00:28:52.280 so like to me dude like i'm looking around and i'm like there's not much i like more than a gun to

00:28:56.940 the head situation that's what i'm saying bro the truth is is that that's when your best shit comes 0.67

00:29:02.260 100 for me my best shit comes out when it has to come out it's for the love of the game it's like

00:29:08.200 fuck i have to do this yeah like i think that's true for everybody but most people avoid it's like 0.78

00:29:13.000 a gambling sickness almost it's like everything all the chips are in well do you think about it

00:29:17.860 like this bro most people avoid those high pressure situations i love that most people avoid the daily

00:29:24.120 discomfort yeah you know most people don't eat right they don't train hard they don't fucking take 0.96

00:29:28.940 care of themselves yeah and the reason that they don't do any of these things is because they're

00:29:32.400 trying to avoid the pain they don't understand that the pain that you actually experience by doing the

00:29:38.680 difficult things actually is what brings out the best shit inside of you i i cannot be my ultimate

00:29:46.020 creative self unless my back is on the wall yep and that's why i talk so much about cultivating

00:29:51.460 zero option mentality you have to cultivate that mentality of not having any options even when

00:29:57.340 things are good and i've been fortunate enough to be able to keep that the entire time yeah but now

00:30:03.740 a lot of you guys are going to learn it by default because you're going to get pushed up against the

00:30:07.140 wall and we're going to find out who actually can respond under pressure and who doesn't and like

00:30:13.440 dude my personal opinion i don't know what you think but i think there's a lot of people out there

00:30:17.740 because statistically you know entrepreneurship is seven to eight percent of the population

00:30:23.420 that's that's been the that's been from for the last 50 years one percent of those is successful

00:30:30.460 so we're dealing with a small mind isn't that a crazy statistic it is crazy but here's the thing

00:30:36.520 how many people do you see calling themselves entrepreneurs now all everybody it's the fucking 0.97

00:30:43.280 cool thing and reason it's getting the reason you're starting to see all these knuckle fucks that 0.71

00:30:47.800 don't have any experience starting to coach people in business is not because they're good at

00:30:51.800 business it's actually because they're not good at business and they're trying to fucking create 0.64

00:30:55.680 cash flow to fund their business no doubt so that they can stay alive and you don't see it as easy

00:31:00.980 money and a lot of you guys dude like you're paying like bro let me tell you something if you're paying

00:31:06.180 someone to fucking coach you or you're a part of a coaching group and that motherfucker hasn't built 0.98

00:31:10.280 a real company that's what you're wasting your fucking money check the resume yeah you have what have 0.94

00:31:14.700 you done what have you actually built what have you actually sold how many employees like in detail what is

00:31:20.100 the fucking resume of the people that that you're doing this you know it's going to be an interesting 0.92

00:31:24.060 time because the market is the biggest gangster of them all yeah and it's gonna fucking purge itself

00:31:31.200 over these next couple years and so the people that have bullshit products bullshit quality that you 0.81

00:31:38.640 know really little trends and trinkets and not like dude who's gonna who's gonna thrive in this

00:31:44.920 best-in-class operators people that know how to build real companies that have real quality that have

00:31:50.640 real people that understand the value of brand and know how to build a fucking actual brand they're 0.92

00:31:56.980 gonna fucking survive and they're gonna thrive and do incredibly well people that understand how to pivot

00:32:02.660 and move into stuff and products and services that are necessities over luxuries it's like the exact reason

00:32:10.940 why all these airbnb people are gonna fucking die yeah you know how many people this is interesting do 0.91

00:32:15.140 you know how many people in the last six months have come to me with airbnb businesses and asked me how

00:32:21.500 to turn them into halfway houses and sober livings probably a lot fucking 50 yeah what happened i thought 0.92

00:32:27.740 you were killing it bro they see dude it's it's the new it's the new easy fucking sparkly shiny thing 0.82

00:32:35.460 and like you know they they hear you just like you heard your neighbor exit they hear you exit and they're

00:32:40.280 like well fuck dude i got all these things i can do what spotford's doing they think it's fucking easy 0.95

00:32:44.220 but yes but it's also because they're not booking airbnbs oh for sure because people aren't spending money

00:32:51.080 next that's 100 yeah that's dude that's what you're it's the same thing as what i was saying a minute ago

00:32:56.040 you're seeing all these people who were typically doing other things now they're trying to do all these new things

00:33:01.520 and it's like dude the reason they would if this is working spot on if this was fucking working they 0.92

00:33:06.760 wouldn't be doing all these new things yep and it's just like that's exactly what you're saying

00:33:10.480 yeah it's the same thing i think there's a lot i think we're going to be surprised too i think we're

00:33:14.220 going to be surprised to see that there's going to be uh some very big uh very famous people eat a

00:33:21.300 fucking dick what's going on no i'm being real dude yeah being real like i see it coming dude 0.99

00:33:26.940 a lot of these people are overextended a lot of these people are fucking highly leveraged uh in 0.86

00:33:32.440 every area their cars are leveraged their houses leveraged their businesses leveraged how much how

00:33:36.560 much of going through 2008 recession impacted decisions over the last 10 12 years in your

00:33:45.120 business building it in safety for the next all of it exactly all of it exactly all of it i didn't

00:33:51.980 i never you knew there was never there was never a drop of intensity or urgency for me

00:33:57.540 to grow our brand and build a secure brand um like for example like i was talking to a investment banker

00:34:03.740 guy yesterday and he was we were talking about valuation of businesses and you know we're a debt

00:34:08.640 free company so like i don't owe fucking anybody a dollar and he was like yeah most investment bankers 0.96

00:34:14.660 would think you're an idiot i said yeah they would until they saw that ebita until they saw that 0.86

00:34:18.440 fucking equity until they saw that fucking 10x fucking value that i my companies weren't for 0.97

00:34:23.920 this for the top line sales that we do because of the way i built it over the last 12 years

00:34:28.240 it's probably worth 10 times more than this company with the same top line do you know what's so

00:34:32.540 we own all our customer fucking information like dude we we sell direct to the consumer because 0.97

00:34:36.980 and people don't understand that most companies are strapped with so much debt and so if you sold

00:34:40.840 there's a waterfall structure of who gets paid first yeah and that debt when i sold my we were

00:34:45.540 debt free i've never had a dollar in debt i never took a dollar the reason i never had a dollar in

00:34:49.400 debt bro is because no one would give me any money it turned out to be a blessing yeah you didn't have

00:34:53.060 a choice yeah i didn't have a choice yeah bro in 2010 or 2007 right before the banking collapsed

00:34:58.980 i went to fucking 30 banks over the course of a month and a half bro in my fucking men's warehouse 0.99

00:35:04.240 suit fucking you know bro no that was the answer was no from everybody it was greatest thing that 0.97

00:35:10.880 ever happened yeah because i had to figure out how to fucking do it without bootstrapping yeah that's 0.90

00:35:14.900 exactly it you know i started in 2008 and i you know because i was so new to business and new to

00:35:21.680 acclimating to real life and not the drug world like i didn't understand what banking had looked

00:35:27.040 like prior to that like i couldn't i remember walking into bank of america in 2009 maybe early 2010

00:35:33.260 with 100 grand cash in the bank which for 22 3 4 however old i was was a lot of fucking money back then 0.94

00:35:41.040 and i remember asking them i said hey listen you know i fucked my credit up because i'm in recovery 0.90

00:35:45.300 i made some bad decisions back in the day i haven't done that in a long time i got a bunch of money in

00:35:49.020 your bank can i get a credit card like i got you i understand you have your secured credit card

00:35:54.020 program for like people trying to build credit you give me a card worth 500 you lock up 500 of my money

00:35:59.600 there's zero chance for you to fucking lose anything no they denied me yeah that's right like that's how 0.89

00:36:05.140 hard it got yeah people don't realize that dude my dad we had after after a couple years of my
