00:00:00.400 I can stack them hundreds to the roof. I ain't stopping till they stack to the moon.
00:00:04.880 Without me, my family wouldn't have food. Anybody go against me gotta lose.
00:00:12.340 What is up, guys? You're listening to the MFCEO Podcast.
00:00:16.320 Whoops. Fuck that one up. Let's start over. 0.99
00:00:19.620 What is up, guys? You're listening to the MFCEO Project.
00:00:22.680 It is a podcast. My name is Andy, and I am the motherfucking CEO.
00:00:27.220 Guys, today is Thursday Thunder, and I know yesterday we had a podcast,
00:00:32.720 but that's what's awesome is you never know what the fuck you're going to get from me. 0.61
00:00:35.820 One day you might get zero podcasts for two months, and the next time I might just do two in a row.
00:00:40.960 But that is my commitment to you. That is me committing to you
00:00:45.440 to only give you shit that will actually benefit you. 0.84
00:00:50.580 I am not here to sell you tickets to 25 events a year.
00:00:55.500 I am not here to sell you information after information after information.
00:01:01.360 I am here to help, okay?
00:01:05.000 And that's why this podcast exists.
00:01:06.820 A lot of you guys are asking me,
00:01:11.620 Andy, why aren't you at this event?
00:01:14.000 Why aren't you at that event?
00:01:15.860 Why aren't you at this event?
00:01:17.480 Why don't you speak that much anymore?
00:01:19.680 Dude, I'm going to tell you why on this podcast, okay?
00:01:24.000 And the bottom line of why I'm not doing the speaking that I have been doing the last couple years
00:01:31.620 is because I've observed the way that this industry works, the speaking industry.
00:01:38.000 And I'm going to tell you with no confusion that I am 100% anti-speaking circuit bullshit, okay?
00:01:48.740 Here's why.
00:01:50.300 First of all, we got YouTube.
00:01:52.640 We got fucking Facebook.
00:01:54.280 We got Instagram.
00:01:55.740 We got podcasts that are all free, okay?
00:02:00.340 Everything that you want to know is out there for free.
00:02:03.500 You don't need to pay $10,000 for a ticket to go learn some shit,
00:02:07.920 especially whenever the fucking, what you're going to learn when you go to most of these events 0.92
00:02:14.560 is how to buy more shit, all right?
00:02:17.300 And I call it pitch fest, all right?
00:02:20.660 I do not believe in that morally.
00:02:23.180 I do not believe that it's okay to charge somebody thousands of dollars
00:02:26.700 only to sell them more shit when they come.
00:02:29.940 I know because I've been there and I'm not out of touch how important and how valuable $1,000, $2,000, $5,000, $10,000 is, okay?
00:02:43.260 I haven't forgotten that.
00:02:44.520 I remember that.
00:02:46.320 And I think it's morally wrong to charge people that kind of money to come to an event
00:02:50.520 and not learn anything practical.
00:02:52.320 And my experience has been, from my multiple years of doing this,
00:02:58.920 is that I usually am one of the only speakers that teaches any practical shit.
00:03:03.600 Everybody else's game is to throw the fucking little bit of info out
00:03:07.500 and then say, hey, let's buy my stuff, okay?
00:03:10.200 And I'm not down with that.
00:03:11.120 It's not what I'm about.
00:03:11.980 It's not what I want to do.
00:03:13.000 It's not aligned with who I am or what I'm about.
00:03:16.440 So when you're looking at why I'm not on the list of all these events, that's why.
00:03:22.320 I'm fucking, I'm not going to do it.
00:03:23.860 It's not what I want to do.
00:03:24.880 It's not my business.
00:03:26.780 Yeah, I do make a couple million bucks a year from speaking,
00:03:30.220 but it's not worth my integrity to make that.
00:03:33.060 It's just not.
00:03:33.840 It's not what I want to do.
00:03:34.860 So please stop DMing me and asking me why the fuck I'm not at this and this and this fucking event 0.94
00:03:40.020 because I don't want to be there.
00:03:42.620 That's why.
00:03:43.660 Here's the other thing.
00:03:45.600 And this leads into a bigger fucking topic, I guess.
00:03:48.560 I wasn't going to talk about this today, but I guess now that I'm on it,
00:03:51.620 we might as well just stay on it.
00:03:54.600 When is enough enough?
00:03:56.480 All right.
00:03:56.880 When is enough enough?
00:03:59.140 When is going to be enough programs for you?
00:04:03.380 When's going to be enough coaching for you?
00:04:05.460 When's going to be enough books for you?
00:04:07.320 I'm all for education.
00:04:09.680 I'm all for spending money to learn from people who have actually done what the fuck
00:04:17.600 they say they're going to teach you.
00:04:20.460 I'm all for that.
00:04:21.660 That's what you should be doing.
00:04:23.640 What I'm not for, and by the way, I'm also for you purchasing tools that will help you do this.
00:04:30.280 I was talking to my great friend, Dan Fleischman, this morning.
00:04:34.460 We were talking about Russell Brunson's product, ClickFunnels.
00:04:37.820 Amazing product.
00:04:39.340 No question.
00:04:41.600 Extremely valuable.
00:04:43.120 Changed the landscape of entrepreneurship.
00:04:45.920 But an argument could be easily made that that particular product is hurting a lot of you guys as well.
00:04:52.960 And let me tell you why.
00:04:54.000 This does not mean that I don't believe in Russell or his product because I do.
00:04:58.760 I think he's one of the most brilliant entrepreneurs out there right now, and I think his product's amazing.
00:05:03.540 And it's taking people from zero to paying their mortgage or buying cars, and I understand that that shit is important for you guys.
00:05:12.540 But a lot of you guys are missing the boat on how you could use this product.
00:05:17.520 And because of that, what you're doing is creating a stream of income that can never be scaled.
00:05:22.880 You're selling this widget or that widget, and you're pushing it through a funnel, and you're making some money.
00:05:29.280 Good for you.
00:05:30.140 That is awesome.
00:05:31.360 In my opinion, that is not entrepreneurship.
00:05:34.000 That is the base, base level.
00:05:35.680 I mean, technically, yes, it's entrepreneurship.
00:05:37.840 But that is the base level of entrepreneurship, okay?
00:05:42.420 What real entrepreneurs could teach you is literally everything that goes into running a real company.
00:05:48.300 A company that has value.
00:05:49.740 Nobody's coming to you and buying your fucking Amazon store for $100 million fucking dollars or a billion dollars, okay?
00:05:59.140 And I understand.
00:06:00.840 When you start out in business, the goal, you know, making an extra $1,000, $2,000, $5,000 a month, that is a huge fucking deal when you're starting.
00:06:12.360 Totally understand that.
00:06:14.260 Totally relate to that.
00:06:16.580 Totally get that.
00:06:17.760 But that should not be the end point.
00:06:20.760 That should not be where you want to end up.
00:06:23.620 You should be doing something that is going to create something that creates cash flow for you but also has value.
00:06:32.500 For example, when you invest in a multifamily unit or you buy real estate, that real estate can produce a stream of income,
00:06:40.680 but the real estate itself also has a value.
00:06:43.680 When you own a big company or a small company, you produce a paycheck, but the company itself actually has value and later on can be purchased for actual money.
00:06:56.320 All right?
00:06:56.540 And a lot of you young bucks, a lot of you people who are working and trying to become, you're getting caught up in the Instagram bullshit.
00:07:07.720 You're getting caught up in the fucking Lamborghini.
00:07:10.000 You're getting caught up in the fucking jet.
00:07:12.280 And I love that shit.
00:07:13.340 But listen, me and you are completely fucking different.
00:07:17.440 All right?
00:07:17.920 I'm 20 years in.
00:07:19.260 You're fucking one year in.
00:07:20.520 You're two years in.
00:07:21.740 All right?
00:07:22.060 Some of you guys are 10 years in.
00:07:24.040 But the point of the matter is this.
00:07:25.520 The point is not to look wealthy.
00:07:28.260 It's to be wealthy.
00:07:29.980 And a lot of you guys are caught up with trying to keep up with all these other fucking clowns on the internet when most of these guys don't have 10 grand in their fucking bank account.
00:07:38.940 They could be driving Lamborghini on fucking Instagram, but they don't have 10 grand.
00:07:43.800 They don't have fucking five grand.
00:07:46.480 They don't have real freedom.
00:07:48.360 They don't have real leverage.
00:07:49.900 They don't have real power.
00:07:51.460 They really don't have anything except a fucking cool picture on the gram.
00:07:55.900 And that's not where you want to be.
00:07:57.500 So you have to understand that building a great company, building a great brand is entirely different than just creating some income.
00:08:08.020 The goal here for you guys, and I'm not against you creating some income, but the goal here should be to create the income so you can build a brand.
00:08:15.940 Not create the income and then just fucking floss hard on the gram until you're 50 years old.
00:08:20.960 Because when you're 50 years old, you're going to have shit.
00:08:23.980 Okay?
00:08:24.240 And the reason that this mentality is perpetuated is because of events that are put out that say, hey, pay this money and you'll be rich.
00:08:34.300 And everybody goes to the event and what do they do?
00:08:37.380 They get sold for four fucking days or five days or two days or a whole day.
00:08:41.500 It doesn't matter.
00:08:42.660 They get asked to buy more shit over and over.
00:08:45.380 Really, dude?
00:08:46.740 Why wouldn't they just tell you that shit when you pay for the ticket to go to the fucking event?
00:08:50.380 But that's my problem with not – that's why I'm not doing events.
00:08:53.740 I'm not picking on anybody's event.
00:08:55.340 They can do whatever they want.
00:08:57.060 My personal mission does not align with that.
00:09:01.660 My integrity and my morals do not align with that.
00:09:04.860 Okay?
00:09:05.500 So that's why I pick and choose where the fuck I'm going.
00:09:08.180 Now, I am doing an event, a small event.
00:09:11.640 I think it's 100 or 200 people in Vegas on the 15th, 16th, 17th weekend with Heavy D from Diesel Brothers.
00:09:21.560 The reason I'm doing that event – and guess what?
00:09:23.720 Those tickets are expensive.
00:09:25.180 But the reason I'm doing that event is because it's two full days of practical teaching.
00:09:29.640 When you come to that event, you're going to pay some money.
00:09:32.080 Then you're going to learn a whole bunch of shit that you can actually utilize in your business when you leave.
00:09:36.960 Okay?
00:09:37.260 And you're going to learn it directly from people who have done it.
00:09:41.220 It's not conceptual.
00:09:42.840 It's not maybe.
00:09:43.980 This is how these people have became wealthy.
00:09:46.860 Okay?
00:09:47.180 And I'm all for that.
00:09:48.420 But I can't be someone who stands by and just keeps my mouth shut and lets all of you young guys think that it's so cool to go to these fucking events and spend money to be sold more shit.
00:10:01.100 You're being made a fool.
00:10:03.120 Period.
00:10:04.180 You're being taken advantage of.
00:10:06.040 Period.
00:10:07.260 Okay?
00:10:07.760 And you need to be smarter.
00:10:09.380 Period.
00:10:10.540 All right?
00:10:12.180 It's the success zombie syndrome.
00:10:14.820 I've talked about it many times in my podcast.
00:10:17.580 I've talked about it lots and lots of times.
00:10:19.940 What's a success zombie?
00:10:22.020 Well, a success zombie is people who do what the fuck I'm talking about.
00:10:25.440 These are people who buy tickets to every motherfucking event that there is, every entrepreneur gathering, every success conference or summit or whatever the fuck you want to call it.
00:10:36.860 They go there.
00:10:38.120 I see it because I've been on the circuit for two fucking years straight.
00:10:42.180 They're the same people.
00:10:44.640 The same people.
00:10:45.800 It's the same fucking people.
00:10:46.980 It's pretty sad that I can recognize the same motherfuckers at all these events.
00:10:50.920 Because if these events were worth a shit, why the fuck would you need to go to all of them?
00:10:55.260 You don't.
00:10:57.100 All right?
00:10:57.460 There is no secret.
00:10:59.020 There is no magic.
00:11:00.740 There is no product.
00:11:02.260 There is no shortcut.
00:11:03.820 There is no shrinking the time frame.
00:11:06.660 That shit is all shit that you have access to for free if you're willing to look and listen.
00:11:15.460 There are lots of people who are very successful who are dedicating their entire lives to helping you.
00:11:22.620 And just because they're not charging, see, I actually feel like I would do a lot better if I charged $50,000 to learn from me.
00:11:30.660 Because then maybe people would listen.
00:11:32.420 But because it's fucking free, people discount it.
00:11:35.680 But I'm going to tell you right now, everything you need to know, every single thing that you need to know can be found on this podcast and Ed My Let's podcast.
00:11:44.280 And I'm not just saying that because Ed's my partner in other business, but because I believe in Ed and he does the right thing and he talks the right things and he talks about the right concepts of success in business.
00:11:55.160 Between those two podcasts, that's it.
00:11:58.240 All the information you need is there.
00:12:00.660 All right?
00:12:01.720 Now, with that being said, you guys have to look in the mirror and decide what it is that you want to do.
00:12:09.100 Do you want to be one of these success zombies and go around and buy everyone else's shit?
00:12:14.260 Or do you want to become the person who's actually successful?
00:12:19.280 It's a big difference.
00:12:21.140 Because actually successful people are working while you're playing entrepreneur and traveling around the fucking speaker circuit.
00:12:29.780 They're building companies.
00:12:31.040 They're doing things.
00:12:32.300 There's not one person on this fucking earth that went to any of these fucking conferences and automatically became a fucking millionaire.
00:12:38.360 It didn't happen.
00:12:40.660 All right?
00:12:41.340 So go to the things if that's what you want to do.
00:12:44.400 If you want to go hang out with your friends, go hang out with your friends at these events.
00:12:47.680 That's fine.
00:12:48.540 But stop thinking that it's going to be the solution.
00:12:51.200 Stop thinking that it's going to fix all your problems.
00:12:53.320 Stop thinking that, oh, I'm going to be rich if I go to this event.
00:12:56.840 No, you're actually going to be poorer because here's what's going to happen.
00:13:00.400 One, you're going to go.
00:13:02.000 Two, you're going to get sold a bunch more shit.
00:13:04.560 Three, it's going to be the same shit you already heard a hundred fucking times everywhere.
00:13:09.000 Four, you're going to have less money in your bank account because you paid for all this shit.
00:13:13.180 Five, that means you have less money to actually invest in your fucking company.
00:13:17.300 So while you may be sitting there thinking, oh, Andy, you're just hating.
00:13:21.740 No, I'm not hating.
00:13:22.340 I'm helping you to fucking declutter the nonsense.
00:13:27.480 All right?
00:13:28.220 There's too much bullshit out there.
00:13:30.520 There's too many fucking events.
00:13:32.820 There's too many fucking conferences.
00:13:35.400 There's too many people out there that understand that you guys are willing to pay this shit
00:13:41.720 and be taken advantage of that are willing to take advantage of it.
00:13:45.260 And I don't agree with that.
00:13:46.360 It's not my fucking way.
00:13:47.940 It's not what I do.
00:13:49.080 It's not what I built my business around.
00:13:51.080 It's not who I am.
00:13:52.100 And guess what?
00:13:53.720 I ain't going to do it.
00:13:55.340 Period.
00:13:56.180 So stop fucking asking.
00:13:57.960 Now, with that being said, you have to understand that the value of learning doesn't mean go out
00:14:06.500 and buy every resource possible.
00:14:08.960 That's what fucking losers do.
00:14:10.600 That's what fucking success zombies do.
00:14:12.580 That's what wannabes do. 1.00
00:14:14.320 They dabble in every little thing, hoping that the answer will somehow materialize
00:14:20.840 and they will just become one of these people.
00:14:23.300 You know, they think that if they go to every event, everybody, they're going to be recognized
00:14:26.800 and they're going to get in the group.
00:14:27.940 No, it's not like that.
00:14:29.020 You want to be recognized?
00:14:29.960 You want to get in the group?
00:14:30.900 Go out and become somebody who deserves to be recognized.
00:14:34.680 Go out and build a real company.
00:14:36.420 The fucking cart does not come before the horse.
00:14:40.780 Okay?
00:14:41.040 You guys are, like, trying to, like, go wide on this.
00:14:47.080 You're trying to find the fucking shit at the surface level.
00:14:49.580 But that's not what a value is.
00:14:51.500 The value and the resources that are going to help you are going to be deep.
00:14:56.340 They're going to be the things that you dig through, that you work through, that you push through,
00:15:02.220 that are not sexy.
00:15:03.920 They're the fundamentals, man.
00:15:05.820 Three-pointers don't win basketball games.
00:15:08.460 Fucking layups do.
00:15:09.340 Three-60 slam dunks don't win basketball games.
00:15:12.700 They get you on SportsCenter.
00:15:14.240 Layups win basketball games. 0.83
00:15:16.260 Okay?
00:15:16.540 And a lot of you guys are out there trying to figure out what's going to make you win,
00:15:20.540 when in reality, what's going to make you win is the thing that you're avoiding the most,
00:15:25.480 which is doing the fucking work, which is building the actual shit,
00:15:29.200 which is taking that widget that you use on your Amazon store to create some income
00:15:34.960 and building an entire brand that is worth tens of millions of dollars off of it,
00:15:41.980 not just in sales, but it's an actual company, right?
00:15:45.940 We've become this society as entrepreneurs of, and not me, but you guys,
00:15:51.480 have become this society of entrepreneurs who are just looking for the next thing.
00:15:56.880 And, dude, if you're always looking for the next thing, you're going to be that mouse
00:16:00.760 who's always looking for the cheese.
00:16:02.720 And what happens to the mouse that's always looking for the cheese?
00:16:05.320 Eventually, the motherfucker gets snapped, and you're done.
00:16:08.580 And that's what's going to happen when you jump from thing to thing to thing to thing to thing
00:16:12.280 to finance your bullshit Instagram lifestyle.
00:16:15.940 You know, dude, oh, R&D, but you got those cards.
00:16:18.360 Yeah.
00:16:18.960 And you know what?
00:16:19.860 I spend one fucking tenth of what I make on fucking my lifestyle.
00:16:25.200 That includes everything.
00:16:26.340 My cars, my houses, my travel, everything.
00:16:29.240 One tenth of what I make.
00:16:31.240 One tenth.
00:16:32.860 That's my budget.
00:16:36.260 Think about that.
00:16:38.120 I'm not saying that to brag.
00:16:39.260 I'm saying that so some of you guys snap out of your fucking brains what you need to do to succeed.
00:16:44.500 I went for ten fucking years without basically getting paid at all.
00:16:48.260 Ten fucking years.
00:16:50.160 How many of you right now, how many of you in your heart of hearts are willing to go ten years
00:16:58.260 without getting fucking paid?
00:17:01.920 I went three years with zero paychecks.
00:17:04.360 I went seven years after that making $695 a month.
00:17:11.640 How many of you are willing to do that?
00:17:14.020 Because those are going to be the people that are able to build a brand.
00:17:17.920 It wasn't that we weren't making money, guys.
00:17:20.020 We were making some money.
00:17:21.820 See, a lot of you guys say we weren't making any money.
00:17:23.460 We were making money.
00:17:24.640 But what was I doing?
00:17:25.860 I wasn't out buying fucking cars.
00:17:27.580 I wasn't out buying fucking houses.
00:17:29.380 I was reinvesting the fucking money into our company.
00:17:32.840 Everything.
00:17:33.560 Every fucking dollar.
00:17:34.940 Every dollar I had into the companies.
00:17:37.900 And I did that for a long fucking time.
00:17:40.520 But you young guys, you got this huge advantage in front of you, man.
00:17:43.920 You got this internet.
00:17:45.640 You've got social media.
00:17:47.200 You've got the ability to sell product through amazing products like Russell's product, ClickFunnels.
00:17:51.860 Amazing fucking product.
00:17:53.980 Okay?
00:17:55.080 But here's the thing you don't understand.
00:17:57.440 The goal isn't to sell $2,500 a month worth of shit and then fucking have an extra fucking $1,500 in profit.
00:18:07.100 That's not doing it.
00:18:09.660 The goal should be to take that $1,500 instead of going out and buying a $1,000 a month car to show off on the gram.
00:18:16.680 But take that $1,000 a month and roll it in and roll it in and roll it in month after month after month after month after month.
00:18:22.720 That's how you build something.
00:18:25.280 There's no conference.
00:18:26.820 There's no fucking event.
00:18:28.580 There's no fucking book.
00:18:30.060 There's no course out there that is going to do this for you.
00:18:36.560 And a lot of you guys get tired of the same message.
00:18:39.700 Work hard.
00:18:40.740 Have grit.
00:18:41.760 Have perseverance.
00:18:43.540 Do what other people aren't willing to do.
00:18:46.900 But I'm sorry.
00:18:48.220 That's the fucking truth.
00:18:50.360 That's what it takes.
00:18:52.560 And you guys have traveled around all this fucking bullshit and act like you're something for being there.
00:19:00.340 Get the fuck out of here, man.
00:19:03.080 The last event I did last year, the last event that I, well, it was actually the second last event.
00:19:09.380 But the second to last event I did in 2018, I got hundreds of emails of people pissed off.
00:19:17.340 Hundreds of emails.
00:19:19.200 Hundreds of emails people pissed off.
00:19:21.820 They spent fucking big money to go to an event and all they got was sold more shit.
00:19:26.920 And you know what I decided?
00:19:28.140 That ain't for me.
00:19:28.840 And you know what?
00:19:30.060 It isn't for me.
00:19:31.120 It's not for me because they bitch. 1.00
00:19:32.920 It's just not for me because it's not the truth.
00:19:35.220 It's not the truth.
00:19:36.380 It's not right.
00:19:37.420 It's not okay.
00:19:38.500 And it's not something I want to associate with.
00:19:40.920 I'm sorry.
00:19:41.580 So, if that's what you're down with and that's what you want to do and you want to travel all over the country and drop your fucking hard-earned money and listen to all these motherfuckers say the same fucking shit year in and year out, day in and day out, month in and month out, and that's fun for you, then do it.
00:19:58.260 But that's not what I'm about.
00:20:00.620 I'm about helping you guys get real fucking growth.
00:20:04.480 I'm about helping you guys build a real fucking company.
00:20:07.340 I'm about helping you guys become people who don't have to constantly chase the cheese.
00:20:14.720 Okay?
00:20:15.040 Because that's not what life should be like for you.
00:20:18.280 Life should be sacrifice up front, work hard up front, learn the skills that are going to make you effective long-term, and execute.
00:20:29.900 Okay?
00:20:31.040 And you can't do that without doing it.
00:20:34.280 A lot of you guys, dude, it's just frustrating for me.
00:20:37.360 Just, you know what?
00:20:39.180 I wasn't even going to talk about this shit today, but just don't fucking email me.
00:20:42.340 Why am I not here?
00:20:43.260 This is why I'm not there.
00:20:44.520 This is why I'm not there.
00:20:45.720 This is why I'm not here.
00:20:46.680 This is why I'm not there.
00:20:47.480 This is why I'm not going to be fucking anywhere.
00:20:49.800 Because I don't fucking want to be.
00:20:53.220 Okay?
00:20:53.760 And I love to speak, but I like to teach.
00:20:56.660 A lot of people don't want to learn.
00:20:58.020 They want to get rah-rah-d. 1.00
00:20:59.400 They want to walk out and say, oh, I'm the fucking man, and beat their chest for half an hour.
00:21:03.620 And then go to their little networking group and talk about how successful they're going to be.
00:21:07.680 And then, you know, what do they do after that?
00:21:10.100 Oh, they go get high and watch fucking TV.
00:21:12.600 Or they go get fucking fucked up.
00:21:14.520 Or they go right back to the habits that they were fucking doing.
00:21:17.660 Guys, that's not what I'm about, man.
00:21:19.600 That's not what I'm about.
00:21:20.620 That's not what I support.
00:21:21.680 That's not what I'm about.
00:21:22.700 And guys, you guys out there just an FYI who are out there running fucking dropshipping bullshit companies, 0.55
00:21:28.280 and you think you're an entrepreneur, guess what?
00:21:31.020 Facebook is changing in 2019.
00:21:33.140 You guys are going to be fucked.
00:21:34.780 How do I know that?
00:21:35.620 Because I spend more money on Facebook than probably all of you guys combined.
00:21:39.500 That's the truth.
00:21:40.640 And you know what they're going to start doing?
00:21:42.100 They're going to start sending out follow-up emails the day or two or three days afterwards
00:21:45.720 so that you guys can, so people can rate the experience.
00:21:49.140 And guess what happens with dropshipping companies?
00:21:50.760 When it takes two or three weeks to get your fucking shit, people are going to be pissed.
00:21:54.320 And they're going to delete your fucking count, okay?
00:21:57.640 They're going to shut down your ads.
00:21:59.900 You guys are being short-sighted, okay?
00:22:03.540 Stop thinking about what's going to fucking get you the Lambo
00:22:06.600 and start thinking about what's going to pay for your fucking kids and your grandkids 1.00
00:22:11.840 and their kids' fucking college education or whatever education 0.79
00:22:17.040 because the truth is I think college is bullshit anyway.
00:22:19.400 But, for most people, but it should be generational wealth, not Lamborghini wealth.
00:22:27.060 That's coming from a dude that owns, I don't know, three Lamborghinis right now?
00:22:31.320 I'm telling you the truth, guys.
00:22:33.100 You don't need it.
00:22:34.480 You're wasting it.
00:22:36.300 And here's the fucking truth.
00:22:38.200 This is the truth.
00:22:39.520 Most of the people that go to these events are broke as fuck.
00:22:43.000 Most of them.
00:22:44.080 Most of them have gone into debt to be there.
00:22:46.200 So, when you're out there thinking you're networking with fucking hot shots,
00:22:49.800 just remember everybody's got a story.
00:22:52.020 And their story definitely isn't, hey, I went into debt $7,000 to come to this event.
00:22:56.360 That ain't what you hear.
00:22:57.620 You hear about all the fucking Instagram life, okay?
00:23:01.380 So, when you're networking with people, remember that.
00:23:04.640 Remember who you're surrounding yourself with.
00:23:06.560 Look around when you go to these events.
00:23:08.380 The people in the crowd, most of them are fucking broke.
00:23:11.180 That's a fact.
00:23:12.220 Most of them are the people who are success zombies.
00:23:14.900 All they want is to think that they're an entrepreneur, but they don't want to be an entrepreneur.
00:23:20.000 And guys, let me end with this.
00:23:22.040 And this is very basic logic.
00:23:24.200 When you worry about making the two, the one, the two, to five, $10,000 a month, okay?
00:23:29.800 And that gets shut down.
00:23:31.020 And then you have to apply for a new account.
00:23:33.980 And you have to start doing that again and build it up again.
00:23:36.220 And then you get shut down.
00:23:37.540 And then you got to build it up again.
00:23:38.600 And then you get shut down.
00:23:39.620 And then you got to build it up again.
00:23:40.480 And then you got shut down.
00:23:41.920 And you do that for your whole fucking life.
00:23:45.620 You're still doing the same amount of work that it would take for you to build a real fucking brand.
00:23:51.900 You're still doing the same amount of work.
00:23:53.660 It's not any less work.
00:23:54.780 It's more work.
00:23:56.380 What if you took the money that you were making on your widget or whatever the fuck it is that you're running through this fucking funnel.
00:24:02.620 And you reinvested it and reinvested it and reinvested it and reinvested it and evolved and learned and learned and hired and became a leader, became a manager, became a marketer, became somebody who knows what the fuck they're doing in all aspects of business.
00:24:18.220 Where are you going to be in 20 years versus continuing to chase the motherfucking cheese every day?
00:24:23.900 You're going to be in a much, much better spot.
00:24:30.240 So quit letting people fucking take advantage of you and smarten the fuck up now.
00:24:36.020 I'm not saying don't go to an event.
00:24:38.380 I'm not saying don't buy a course.
00:24:40.700 I'm not saying any of that.
00:24:42.200 But what I am saying is pick and choose wisely.
00:24:46.480 Go to events where people teach shit.
00:24:48.800 Go to events where people are committed to teaching you shit, not selling you shit.
00:24:55.760 And go to events where you're going to learn from people who have done it.
00:25:00.120 Okay?
00:25:00.720 That is the two things that I ask from you.
00:25:03.680 Buy courses from people who have done it.
00:25:07.180 Buy shit from people who have done it.
00:25:09.900 Do your homework.
00:25:10.880 The whole fucking industry of entrepreneur shit is geared to take money out of your pocket and put it in their pocket.
00:25:19.840 And that's only okay if they're offering something that's genuinely going to help.
00:25:24.200 And unfortunately, there's not many people out there who are doing that.
00:25:28.580 So choose wisely.
00:25:30.320 Do your homework.
00:25:31.680 Think where you want to be.
00:25:32.740 And execute the way that you need to.
00:25:36.860 That's going to get you where you want to be in 20 years, not in fucking 20 months.
00:25:41.680 Do your homework.
