this building over here was closed because people kept on killing themselves off of it
00:00:12.780
this building is very famous here you might have seen it on instagram you might have seen it on
00:00:22.120
tiktok but only a couple weeks after it was built they had to refuse people from entering because
00:00:26.520
they kept killing themselves on it since then it's this spirally weird useless building that takes up
00:00:32.180
a lot of space and is a stark reminder that you can kill yourself on it there's a lot of dark
00:00:37.980
aspects of the city that people don't talk about one of my favorites is washington square park you
00:00:42.200
know that park with street interviews and skateboarders and liberals with tables yeah
00:00:46.580
100 years ago that was a graveyard for poor people who couldn't afford graves they just buried them
00:00:51.800
and now it's a park and now we have this weird spirally suicidal building it's a close second

00:09:47.620
to come this is a day in the life usually i'm home by like 3 or 4 now it's time to eat bagel cream
00:09:53.180
cheese i need some protein then i'm gonna meet with the viro team because launching the software
00:09:58.400
product very soon ai software on how to make thumbnails been working on it all year long
00:10:02.960
finalizing touches right now if i got free time in the afternoon might do some reading
00:10:07.240
preparing might do some writing i'll watch a documentary or something because i do edit all
00:10:12.200
these videos people think that i hand it off to somebody i have somebody that helps chop it up but
00:10:16.240
it's pretty much all my doing i got some time to look at twitter and see what's trending and i like
00:10:21.560
looking at my home page and seeing that 900k that looks pretty good we need 1 million very soon
00:10:26.380
and it's bull run time so i probably spend an hour or a day looking at the charts when it's slow
00:10:32.040
i don't look at it at all i don't want to see it when it's low during a bull run i don't do anything
00:10:36.140
too crazy i sell a little bit off the top just to make sure that i have actual profits mostly because
00:10:41.400
mentally i know that i need to recuperate some of the losses i made when i was younger but i'm in for
00:10:46.240
the long term i don't sell a lot i just sell enough to make sure and guarantee that i'm making
00:10:50.620
good profit i don't do too many meme coins but if i hear about something good that i make sure to share
00:10:55.400
and i've been right about every single call so far i called solana at 120 i called brett at about
00:11:01.400
12 cents ethereum and bitcoin were extremely obvious to most people but what i love about being
00:11:06.560
back in manhattan is you can jump between so many different worlds in just one day it's the day's not
00:11:11.820
even halfway over i used to wake up at this time in miami i'd say the most underrated part of my day
00:11:16.140
since being back in new york city is trying to get some sort of artistic inspiration again streaming
00:11:20.860
is creating but not like it is on video and i'm preparing to make a movie in a couple years or
00:11:26.680
maybe even sooner so i spent a lot of time watching movies and writing ideas and making sure that my
00:11:31.920
headspace is in the right space to create because i've been back in new york i haven't really been
00:11:36.040
socializing that much i still haven't seen a lot of my friends all i've been doing is just work and
00:11:41.200
people have asked me is that okay are you are you okay mentally and i'm great i have a lot of the
00:11:46.660
luxuries that i didn't have before i'm able to have money to spend on good food good heating
00:11:51.520
systems i have a bathroom that's bigger now a lot of the inconveniences i used to have being in
00:11:56.540
harlem or brooklyn are gone now so i can prioritize my energy on doing what i want to do being back in
00:12:03.700
new york i'm definitely realizing the luxury of having luxury i never wanted to have money to have
00:12:09.540
flashy things i always wanted to have money just to have the convenience of being able to skip lines and
00:12:15.620
get an ubers whenever i need so that you could have more time that's something i didn't understand
00:12:20.300
when i didn't have money being able to spend money on convenience so you have more time is an
00:12:25.320
investment in and of itself i get to save time by not only watching one of my favorite movies raging
00:12:29.640
bull but also catching up on the economic political state of society by the way i have a meeting in two
00:12:35.440
oh my god thank you it's cold huh yes it's a little cold there's no one in history whose story
00:12:54.200
has successfully ended and them ending their own life there's always going to be another opportunity
00:12:59.380
no matter what situation you're in i've been through so many ups and apr in 2025 i've been seen
00:13:04.680
publicly yet i always seem to bounce back i've been in every tax bracket i've been a quarter million in
00:13:10.280
debt i've lived in hoods all over the city i've lost everything that i've built and got it back
00:13:16.120
twice i told the truth about covid and they proceeded to take my entire life's work away from me
00:13:22.360
and i never decided to kill myself it's one of the most taboo subjects in the world because
00:13:28.540
everybody thinks about it but if you mention that you're thinking about it they say that you have
00:13:33.060
suicidal ideation in my apartment in miami i have a large balcony that i could overlook the city and
00:13:38.400
every time i step on there i do think about it part of the reason why i wanted my apartment in
00:13:42.800
manhattan to have a balcony just as big so i can look out and think about why it's stupid to even
00:13:49.320
consider that which technically is having suicidal thoughts but people never understand it i never
00:13:55.020
fantasize about doing it but i like to put myself in the shoes of people who get to that point because
00:14:00.540
all of us can understand how they got there whether or not you like to admit it i truly believe with the
00:14:05.460
brain i have i could very easily be the person who walked up there and looked down and never looked
00:14:10.920
down again the way i keep myself from walking to the top of that building and jumping off is keeping
00:14:15.440
myself so busy i have no time to fantasize about anything else than what i'm working on i have too
00:14:20.860
many goals too many plans jumping off that building just doesn't fit into my schedule and there are
00:14:26.060
plenty of people who like to justify why someone would do it but i still have yet to see any valid
00:14:31.320
excuse at no point in this life has any person been somewhere that's irredeemable and if you can't
00:14:37.080
understand that view your life like a movie everybody loves when the main character goes through a
00:14:45.000
last meeting of the day i hope this one's worth it another one of these management meetings i've been
00:14:54.660
working with this guy for several years haven't seen him in a while if this goes well i might get a
00:15:02.880
how are you good to see you i fantasize about this back in chicago mercy mercy me that murcielago
00:15:12.600
that's me the first year that i blow how you say broken spanish mean no i blow
