Valuetainment - Drug Dealers Business Model Used By Media

00:00:00.000 So you know when you were a teenager, your parents, maybe your mom or dad sat you down

00:00:25.360 and had the drug conversation with you.

00:00:26.860 Do you remember that?

00:00:27.800 What if I told you, as bad as drug dealers are, to you and I or to kids, there's a dealer

00:00:33.840 that's 10 times worse than drug dealers, and we'll get to that in a minute.

00:00:37.580 But let me go back to the drug dealer business model, and let's talk about how this works

00:00:41.340 out.

00:00:41.560 You know, a couple weeks ago, I'm going home, and I see this guy on the side, the homeless

00:00:46.280 guy, and he's sitting there with the son, and I see him there all the time.

00:00:49.820 I said, I'm not going to give you money, but are you hungry?

00:00:52.420 He said, yes.

00:00:52.860 I said, I want you to get in the car.

00:00:53.700 He gets in the car, I take him to the Wendy's, and we eat at the Wendy's.

00:00:58.040 I said, what do you want?

00:00:58.680 He says, this is what I like.

00:00:59.620 I said, you want to get some stuff for your friends?

00:01:00.860 He says, yes.

00:01:01.320 I get him some other stuff.

00:01:02.620 He gets in the car, and I said, listen, so how'd you get here?

00:01:04.860 He says, heroin.

00:01:05.760 He says, how old are you?

00:01:06.460 I said, he said, 28.

00:01:08.000 I said, what was the decision?

00:01:09.560 What was the turning point?

00:01:10.800 He tells me I was just dating a girl, and she started using it, and we used it to have sex,

00:01:14.280 so I used it as well.

00:01:15.080 And the next thing, you know, I got hooked.

00:01:16.660 I said, man, when are you going to change?

00:01:18.080 He says, this year.

00:01:18.840 I said, when is this year?

00:01:19.920 Anyways, we had a great conversation together.

00:01:22.140 Here's a kicker.

00:01:23.240 I drop him off.

00:01:24.980 Here's what he says.

00:01:26.120 Thanks, Patrick.

00:01:27.500 I said, what?

00:01:28.700 He says, thanks, Patrick.

00:01:30.340 This guy knows the content, and he's a heroin addict, and he's going out to Wendy's with

00:01:35.920 me, and he says, thanks, Patrick.

00:01:38.040 Okay?

00:01:38.680 There's nothing where my name was mentioned or see anything for him to be able to say,

00:01:42.800 thanks, Patrick.

00:01:43.580 He gets that.

00:01:43.920 I'm like, wow.

00:01:45.060 Here's a guy that has access to some information, but heroin completely changes life.

00:01:49.220 Now, let's go back and look at the business model of drug dealers.

00:01:52.200 Here's how it works.

00:01:53.340 If you ask the average person who they use drugs with the first time, what will they tell

00:01:58.180 you?

00:01:58.640 Probably a friend, right?

00:01:59.800 Oh, my friend or girlfriend or something like that, all this other stuff.

00:02:02.820 Now, there are some that will tell you, a drug dealer offered me some weed for free,

00:02:07.520 or a drug dealer gave me a little bit of cocaine, or a little bit of crack, or a little

00:02:10.620 bit of acid, or a little bit of LSD, or a little bit of something.

00:02:13.600 Here's a half a pill of ecstasy, tried, and then you get what?

00:02:16.960 Hooked.

00:02:17.560 Now, the business model of a drug dealer.

00:02:19.920 What kind of a customer does a drug dealer want?

00:02:22.200 The one that buys one time, or B-backs?

00:02:24.220 They want B-backs. 1.00

00:02:25.300 And what kind of B-backs do they want? 1.00

00:02:26.840 They want the B-back that has friends, that brings other people that also buy with them.

00:02:32.260 For example, I'm going to a nightclub.

00:02:34.100 Man, I got to go get some Coke.

00:02:35.580 I got to go get some X.

00:02:37.060 I got to go get some, you know, I got to go get some Special K, whatever it is.

00:02:41.860 Hey, you guys got to try this?

00:02:43.020 Boom, I come and I get it, right?

00:02:44.400 I'm a B-back customer.

00:02:45.260 He keeps making money off of me, and I keep coming back.

00:02:47.500 Now, say friends that find out I'm an addict, and I'm using too much, and you start noticing

00:02:54.460 certain changes.

00:02:55.260 I remember when I was offered drugs, and I was a kid coming up.

00:02:58.400 There's always the one friend that wants to help the other friend out.

00:03:01.060 Do you remember that friend?

00:03:01.740 There's always the one friend that always comes out and says, dude, you got to stop, man.

00:03:05.580 I remember you.

00:03:06.720 I'm not seeing this going on the right.

00:03:08.120 Oh, dude, just leave me alone. 0.58

00:03:09.680 You sound like my dad.

00:03:10.860 You sound like my mom.

00:03:11.680 I don't want to hear it.

00:03:12.340 Dude, I'm not your dad or mom, bro.

00:03:13.940 I'm just telling you.

00:03:15.300 This isn't good.

00:03:16.280 Dude, you're a good basketball player.

00:03:17.920 You're good in class.

00:03:18.980 You're good baseball.

00:03:19.800 What are you doing, bro?

00:03:21.820 Eventually, a person has a moment, and they leave.

00:03:24.880 Now, here's the other side.

00:03:26.640 There's also stories of how, eventually, that drug addict pushes the individual to a breaking

00:03:32.000 point where it costs them their lives.

00:03:33.860 How do most drug dealer stories end up?

00:03:38.040 Think about that question.

00:03:40.080 How do most drug dealer stories end up?

00:03:42.820 What happens to most drug dealers that hurt a lot of people?

00:03:46.280 They either end up in jail, or somebody eventually retaliates.

00:03:49.980 Why?

00:03:50.860 Because there's only so much you can do when you take someone's life.

00:03:53.520 Listen, I've had my friends where one committed a suicide, drugs, emotional.

00:03:58.060 I've had my friends that use a lot of drugs that got off of it.

00:04:00.560 And I've had friends who never used anything, all of them, right?

00:04:04.020 You know what typically happens with that drug dealer?

00:04:06.060 Jail, somebody retaliates, comes after them.

00:04:08.420 They can't stay like that for too long.

00:04:09.920 So here's the point.

00:04:11.280 What is the lifespan of an addict?

00:04:13.500 Let me say it one more time.

00:04:14.760 What is the lifespan of somebody who likes using cocaine?

00:04:18.540 What is the lifespan of somebody who uses ecstasy?

00:04:21.400 What is the lifespan?

00:04:22.680 It's typically in your youth, right?

00:04:24.780 They say married people have better lives, and they make more money. 0.87

00:04:28.580 Why?

00:04:28.700 Because the distractions are gone.

00:04:30.560 If you settle down, and you get married, and you have kids, what typically happens to you?

00:04:35.660 You start thinking about what?

00:04:37.100 Would I want my kids to use drugs, or what do you stop doing?

00:04:40.200 You stop using drugs.

00:04:41.400 Hypothetically, let's just say that's the scenario, right?

00:04:44.820 Remember how earlier I told you there's something worse than a drug dealer?

00:04:47.780 Let me tell you what's worse than a drug dealer.

00:04:49.480 Here's what's worse than a drug dealer.

00:04:51.720 Fear dealers.

00:04:53.340 Now, what is a fear dealer?

00:04:54.660 Let me explain to you what's a fear dealer.

00:04:55.940 Fear dealer is somebody who sells you fear non-stop, all day, all night.

00:05:05.380 And you know what's the business model of a fear dealer?

00:05:07.540 They sprinkle it with a little bit of entertainment.

00:05:09.860 They get you in.

00:05:10.980 They give you a little bit of fear.

00:05:12.440 You go spread it to your friends.

00:05:14.040 They get the fear.

00:05:14.980 Where did you get the fear from?

00:05:16.180 From such and such network.

00:05:17.520 They get attracted to that network.

00:05:19.080 They buy more fear, more people business, come back and watch it.

00:05:22.880 Next thing you know, I'm recruiting for my fear dealer, right?

00:05:26.180 Now, here's the difference.

00:05:27.500 Typically, when somebody's on drugs, you can tell it on their eyes.

00:05:30.660 You can tell by the way they're constantly itching, heroin.

00:05:33.980 You can typically tell while they're going like this all the time.

00:05:36.820 Or, you know, one of these things.

00:05:38.580 You know what it is when somebody's typically on drugs, right?

00:05:40.900 You know the mannerisms if you've seen it.

00:05:42.860 Or somebody who's on Xanax or, you know, they can't even talk to you.

00:05:49.640 I've been around all of it.

00:05:50.540 So, I know all of it.

00:05:51.380 Hey, you know, the paranoia.

00:05:52.960 I've been around all of it.

00:05:54.080 You can tell.

00:05:56.000 There is no side effect of fear that's public or visual that you can see.

00:06:03.540 Because it's all here.

00:06:04.840 You can't see it here.

00:06:06.520 Like, when you're afraid, people don't go like this.

00:06:08.640 Like, they don't roll their words when they're coming out.

00:06:11.740 You can't tell.

00:06:13.280 And what happens to most people?

00:06:14.840 Most people's entire lives, they become addicted to fear.

00:06:18.360 What gets taken away from them?

00:06:20.140 Dreams, capacity, potential, sanity, their freedom.

00:06:24.680 They're arrested for the rest of their lives.

00:06:27.220 And then one day, they wake up.

00:06:30.100 One day, they wake up.

00:06:32.800 And they say, man, what the hell happened to my life?

00:06:34.560 I'm 76 years old.

00:06:36.040 But, you know, at that point, what they're typically doing?

00:06:38.720 At that point, they've already typically sold their kids.

00:06:41.260 Who are now selling their grandkids.

00:06:43.680 Who are selling their great-grandkids.

00:06:45.960 And they're sitting there saying, holy freaking moly.

00:06:50.060 Fear dealers converted me.

00:06:52.400 And I bought their drugs for 50 years.

00:06:54.640 And guess what I did?

00:06:55.560 I sold that drug to my kids and my grandkids.

00:06:59.180 My entire family is now afraid.

00:07:01.520 How the hell did this happen to me?

00:07:03.580 This is why it's so subtle.

00:07:05.520 You don't have any network or statistic or Huffington Post article or BuzzFeed article or Washington Post article to read about the consequence of fear.

00:07:14.120 Because you cannot see it, right?

00:07:16.660 But the damages are so ugly.

00:07:20.200 It pretty much takes your life away.

00:07:22.280 Now, we may go bury somebody six foot under because they became a cocaine addict.

00:07:25.960 And I've been to many, many funerals.

00:07:27.560 One I just went to.

00:07:28.700 Many of them.

00:07:29.500 I have relatives right now that can't give up certain drugs.

00:07:32.680 And you call them at night.

00:07:34.180 Their roommate says, they've been missing all night from 12 o'clock to 6 o'clock.

00:07:37.720 Why are you missing 12 o'clock to 6 o'clock?

00:07:40.780 And you're not somebody in your 20s and 30s.

00:07:42.740 You're somebody in your 50s.

00:07:44.220 What are you doing being missing at that time?

00:07:46.300 Okay, and then they come back and they're sleeping throughout the day.

00:07:48.920 And, hey, I need my money.

00:07:50.180 My car broke down.

00:07:51.020 My disc broke down.

00:07:51.880 People are not night.

00:07:52.980 People know what's going on.

00:07:54.460 And you go to their funeral.

00:07:56.180 Painful, right?

00:07:57.740 But there's nothing real difference between physically dying and your dreams dying.

00:08:03.260 You're just existing.

00:08:04.880 You ain't doing anything crazy with your life.

00:08:07.480 Because somebody got a hold of your fear and they took all your dreams away.

00:08:10.860 You may say, Pat, you sound like you're high right now.

00:08:13.580 No problem.

00:08:14.800 You sound like you're crazy right now.

00:08:16.280 What are you talking about?

00:08:17.500 This makes no sense to me.

00:08:18.920 Don't worry about it.

00:08:20.040 Go to a different network that'll sell you exactly what you're addicted to.

00:08:23.420 All I'm telling you is start questioning everything.

00:08:27.460 Think for yourself.

00:08:29.340 Every single time somebody sells you fear, push back.

00:08:32.160 This is not a message you can only hear one time.

00:08:35.040 This is a message I can do 100 episodes in a row with this topic over and over and over

00:08:41.700 again with a different story.

00:08:43.060 It still is not going to get enough people to convert.

00:08:45.940 But eventually enough of you are going to say, this makes a lot of sense.

00:08:49.460 And if you have experienced losing somebody to drugs, if you have experienced losing somebody

00:08:55.920 to fear, if you have seen people completely lose their dreams because they got sucked into

00:09:01.740 fear, afraid of starting a business, afraid of chasing their dreams, afraid that they can't

00:09:04.900 be afraid of all, afraid that all these other people are better than them because they have

00:09:07.560 degrees.

00:09:08.420 If you want to put a stop to it, share this with people.

00:09:11.400 Let's see if we can get 10,000 shares.

00:09:13.280 Say, you know what?

00:09:13.700 I'm so sick and tired of fear dealers.

00:09:15.660 Then go on Twitter and post and say, I am no longer going to allow fear dealers to sell

00:09:20.900 me their garbage. 0.86

00:09:22.220 I'm done.

00:09:23.340 You can't sell it to me anymore.

00:09:25.020 And spread that language to other people as much as possible until people start saying,

00:09:29.580 you know what?

00:09:30.060 Man, I am addicted to fear and I need to put a stop to this.

00:09:33.440 And once you do, it's like life opens up.

00:09:36.940 It goes from black and white to color.

00:09:38.900 You start seeing things you never saw before.

00:09:40.540 But you got to put a stop to it and you got to stop using the drug that these dealers

00:09:44.820 are selling to you.

00:09:45.860 It's called fear.

00:09:47.060 It's just as dangerous as all the other ones.

00:09:49.560 Except this one takes your dreams away and your potential away.

00:09:53.400 And once you do that, expect some exciting things to happen to your life very soon.

00:09:57.380 Thanks, everybody, for listening.
