00:00:06.200 Friday, March 6th to Wednesday, March 11th. Valid in-store and online.
00:00:13.120 Iranians right now are sitting there. The only concern I got right now is while you're looking at the attacks, 1.00
00:00:17.540 let me give you the pros and the cons.
00:00:20.580 If you get into a fight with someone and say eight people are on your side,
00:00:26.220 and you're fighting, the group's coming after you, and then all of a sudden those people that are attacking you,
00:00:34.020 the eight that are on your side are like, listen, leave the guy alone. 0.96
00:00:37.000 You start hitting them with a baseball bat and you shoot at them. Guess what they're going to do? 0.99
00:00:41.680 And then all of a sudden, very quickly, who has your back? Who has Iran's back right now? 0.90
00:00:46.600 Actually, who has Iran's back right now? Who? The Hezbollahs and all these guys that they fund? 1.00
00:00:51.500 That's a different story. Who has their back? Turkey's sitting on the sidelines. 1.00
00:00:56.220 Russia's even sitting on the sideline because they know they need that Zelensky deal with Ukraine.
00:01:00.640 They know they need Trump. China's sitting on the sidelines. Oh, shit.
00:01:04.480 I know we said $400 billion we're going to put into Iran for 25 years, but, dude, that guy's crazy, 1.00
00:01:09.960 and he just lost the tariffs with the Supreme Court. He's capable of doing anything to us,
00:01:13.920 and he's still going to be there for three years. Listen, Iran, we'd love to have your back,
00:01:17.860 but you're on your own right now. Maybe we can help you out with a tweet.
00:01:21.000 Like, stay out of the way. Don't attack anything, but that's about it.
00:01:24.980 Where is Iran right now?
00:01:26.480 Solo. What happens when, in a fight, you end up being all by yourself
00:01:30.320 because you even killed your allies? You hit up your allies.
00:01:35.080 They almost shot up Burj Khalifa. What is that highest?
00:01:38.660 The one in Dubai, right?
00:01:39.680 Yes.
00:01:39.980 And then they have to intersect it.
00:01:41.300 There's a guy in a property that is sitting in his property,
00:01:45.220 and literally a drone attacks four or five stories above him.
00:01:48.380 He's recording this. Have you seen this footage?
00:01:50.240 Rob, I don't know if you have this footage or not. I don't think this is the one.
00:01:52.420 There is one where he's literally sitting there. Oh, is that the one?
00:01:57.320 There is one, Rob. This footage is vicious.
00:02:01.640 It goes right above him and hits the property that he's staying at.
00:02:05.800 I don't think this is the one. It's another one.
00:02:07.800 No, it's out the window, and all the orange sparks.
00:02:09.880 His window, and he starts screaming, crying.
00:02:13.280 Look, where they are right now, they're cornered.
00:02:15.980 So let's kind of process what they do next.
00:02:18.860 That's kind of where I want to go to next.
00:02:20.740 Yep.
00:02:21.380 Now that they're cornered, what happens when somebody is cornered?
00:02:25.260 They lash out.
00:02:26.160 They lash out. I got kids, four of them.
00:02:28.260 If one of the kids is cornered, you know what they'll do?
00:02:31.020 They'll lash out, and they break the other kid's toy.
00:02:34.120 Or they'll throw something that's the other kid's favorite whatever, right?
00:02:38.200 That's the one, Rob. Watch this. Watch this, folks.
00:02:40.680 Go ahead.
00:02:42.700 He's recording it from his apartment, and a few stories above him got hit.
00:02:48.280 Okay? Look at this.
00:02:50.000 So to me, when we go back to Iran, Khamenei,
00:02:53.460 you have to realize these guys, they celebrate when they get killed for their God.
00:03:00.240 To them, that's a celebration.
00:03:01.840 To them, it's the kamikaze model, right? 0.70
00:03:05.040 It's like, listen, I did it for them,
00:03:06.400 and it's not even the 72 virgins we're talking about.
00:03:09.520 Although, you know, by the way, Khamenei, you guys know Khamenei?
00:03:12.760 Very honorable man, right?
00:03:13.880 He was supposed to be Gandhi.
00:03:15.180 You guys want to know what Khamenei once said about what to do to women in prison?
00:03:19.060 Have you ever heard him?
00:03:19.860 No.
00:03:20.180 You want to verify this, Rob? 1.00
00:03:21.500 He once said female prisoners who are virgins must be raped before execution 0.99
00:03:25.180 to prevent them from entering heaven. 0.99
00:03:27.900 Isn't he an amazing guy to say something like that?
00:03:29.900 That's the guy that died.
00:03:31.800 When he died, I was in Iran.
00:03:33.320 June 3rd, 89.
00:03:34.180 I was there when the guy died.
00:03:35.240 They didn't kill him.
00:03:36.040 He died.
00:03:37.000 This guy who was supposed to be a hero for them, 1.00
00:03:40.100 female prisoners who are virgins must be raped before execution. 1.00
00:03:43.060 If you go pull up the craziest thing he said in one of the books that he wrote, 1.00
00:03:47.660 you would sit there and say, no human being.
00:03:49.460 You would never write that.
00:03:50.980 You would never subscribe to that.
00:03:52.360 Our audience, if you're watching this,
00:03:54.020 even though if you're part of the 30% that watches this,
00:03:56.480 20% that maybe you don't agree with that,
00:03:58.560 deep down inside you'll be like, I don't subscribe to that.
00:04:00.980 Well, they did.
00:04:02.220 About women and girls.
00:04:04.200 About women and girls. 1.00
00:04:05.060 Virgin female prisoners should be raped before execution 1.00
00:04:07.260 so they do not go to heaven. 1.00
00:04:09.000 Founding leader of the Islamic regime in Iran.
00:04:11.280 What do you think about this guy?
00:04:12.900 Does this sound like a noble man?
00:04:14.700 Does this sound like a guy you want your son to look up to?
00:04:17.220 Does this sound like a man you want to follow?
00:04:19.080 Does this sound like a man you want to give the book and say,
00:04:20.960 hey son, read this book.
00:04:22.560 Don't read Marcus Aurelius' Meditations.
00:04:25.020 Don't read Thomas Sowell's books.
00:04:27.320 Don't read Lincoln's books.
00:04:28.780 No, no, read Khomeini's book.
00:04:31.200 Because what he said is, 1.00
00:04:32.840 virgin female prisoners should be raped before execution 1.00
00:04:34.920 so they don't end up in heaven. 1.00
00:04:36.280 This is their values and principles.
00:04:37.620 So what does it mean?
00:04:39.380 When you handle somebody like this that's this reckless,
00:04:41.560 you can only handle them one of two ways. 1.00
00:04:44.880 You either have to kill them 1.00
00:04:47.440 and make an example of them publicly in front of everybody. 1.00
00:04:52.700 Everybody.
00:04:53.840 And to put the fear of death,
00:04:56.840 anything and everything to them, their family,
00:04:59.380 everyone around them publicly.
00:05:01.100 You have to do it that way first.
00:05:03.240 Or you have to also realize,
00:05:05.040 because life to them doesn't matter what are they capable of doing.
00:05:08.860 Anything and everything.
00:05:10.180 So let's talk about retaliation.
00:05:12.140 What is retaliation?
00:05:13.220 The typical protocols right now,
00:05:14.780 FBI is giving the typical protocols.
00:05:16.760 Be careful when you're going out.
00:05:17.880 Don't go to large parties.
00:05:19.040 You know,
00:05:19.560 FBI is doing their thing in America,
00:05:21.140 especially if you're living in an area with a lot of Jews or Jewish communities.
00:05:24.800 So certain parts of LA,
00:05:26.420 certain parts of Miami,
00:05:27.420 certain parts of Boca,
00:05:28.360 certain parts of New York,
00:05:29.660 certain parts of whatever, right?
00:05:30.800 Be careful while you're going around,
00:05:32.560 especially maybe if you're going to be too vocal,
00:05:34.020 be careful with that.
00:05:34.740 But you got to go a little bit deeper than that.
00:05:36.820 So they're threatening to hit straight of Hormuz.
00:05:39.100 Let's talk about that, Tom.
00:05:40.040 I'm going to come to you with this one here.
00:05:41.240 Rob, can you pull up right now?
00:05:42.360 What is the price of a barrel of oil today?
00:05:44.840 It was 67 on Friday.
00:05:47.180 What is the price of a barrel of oil today?
00:05:50.080 Markets just opened.
00:05:51.080 So I'm curious to know where it's at.
00:05:52.560 Pre-markets were predicting 72.
00:05:54.880 Okay, great.
00:05:55.440 So 72.
00:05:55.960 So if they attack the Strait of Hormuz,
00:05:59.880 you could potentially,
00:06:01.280 and even if they block it,
00:06:02.640 every day it's about 15 to 20 million barrels a day.
00:06:06.300 It's about $1.2, $1.3 billion a day.
00:06:08.860 About 20% of the world's oil goes through here.
00:06:12.440 So don't be surprised if gas prices go up 30 to 50 cents
00:06:15.620 in the next week or two.
00:06:16.840 Don't be surprised.
00:06:17.780 If they do anything to this area
00:06:19.820 and they lock it up for 30 days,
00:06:22.000 do not be surprised if a price of a barrel of oil
00:06:24.920 goes up to $120 to $200
00:06:26.520 and gas prices go up $1 to $1.50.
00:06:29.760 That's the pain of what they could do.
00:06:32.140 Right, Tom?
00:06:32.600 I'll pause.
00:06:33.440 Rob, what is this clip that you have here?
00:06:35.020 This is the IRGC announcing
00:06:36.880 that the Strait of Hormuz was being closed.
00:06:38.640 Go for it.
00:06:39.160 Attention all ships.
00:06:40.960 This is Sefah Navy,
00:06:43.040 Iran's Islamic revolutionary God-served Navy. 0.85
00:06:47.160 From now on,
00:06:49.360 all navigating through the Strait of Hormuz
00:06:52.260 is forbidden.
00:06:53.020 No ships in every type
00:06:55.920 is not allowed to pass
00:06:57.680 from a Strait of Hormuz
00:06:59.420 till next notice.
00:07:01.380 This is Sefah Navy, out.
00:07:03.920 Tom.
00:07:05.440 Right.
00:07:06.600 So why do you think
00:07:08.180 President Trump said,
00:07:09.880 drill, baby, drill? 0.99
00:07:11.000 He said it on the campaign trail.
00:07:12.560 He said it at the inauguration.
00:07:14.020 To create energy independence
00:07:16.080 and to make the United States
00:07:17.940 an exporter
00:07:19.380 and an exporter
00:07:20.640 to its friends
00:07:22.000 and its allies
00:07:23.260 who need energy.
00:07:24.620 The Strait of Hormuz
00:07:25.800 is where a lot of
00:07:27.180 Middle East oil
00:07:28.100 is trafficked.
00:07:29.860 It's as important
00:07:30.660 as the Panama Canal.
00:07:32.540 And so it is very important
00:07:33.700 to keep it open.
00:07:34.780 But it's also important
00:07:35.960 to understand
00:07:36.500 the broader energy strategy.
00:07:38.500 This is why drill, baby, drill. 1.00
00:07:40.260 Do you know where Europe gets,
00:07:42.180 I believe it's 60%
00:07:43.760 of its natural gas
00:07:44.960 from us,
00:07:46.180 from the United States,
00:07:47.800 not from the Middle East.
00:07:49.340 The gas comes
00:07:50.000 from the United States.
00:07:51.480 And so when you look at this,
00:07:53.060 is this big?
00:07:53.980 Yes, it's big.
00:07:54.940 But you know what?
00:07:56.080 Who's closing it?
00:07:57.900 Who are you?
00:07:58.800 Where are you?
00:07:59.600 What installation do you have?
00:08:01.620 What fleet do you have there?
00:08:03.800 This will not take very long
00:08:05.560 to incapacitate
00:08:06.840 anybody that wants
00:08:08.040 to come out there
00:08:08.680 and hold up their hand
00:08:09.440 like a stop sign.
00:08:10.640 This is not,
00:08:11.360 we are not talking
00:08:12.300 about embargo right now.
00:08:13.880 We are talking
00:08:14.520 about these strikes.
00:08:16.120 And if you want 1.00
00:08:16.580 to put your ass 1.00
00:08:17.340 in the Straits of Hormuz 1.00
00:08:18.540 and try to interfere
00:08:19.680 with tankers,
00:08:21.000 you're going to go
00:08:21.700 the way of the Somali pirates.
00:08:23.480 Right?
00:08:24.080 You're going to be fish food.
00:08:25.380 Tom, question for you.
00:08:26.600 Question for you.
00:08:27.980 How much of
00:08:29.280 taking on Maduro first
00:08:30.880 was part of the strategy
00:08:32.580 to go after Iran 1.00
00:08:33.580 that if something happens,
00:08:34.780 the oil reserves
00:08:35.520 were protected.
00:08:36.500 So if Iran all of a sudden 0.96
00:08:37.800 goes crazy
00:08:38.500 and locks up
00:08:39.060 the Straits of Hormuz,
00:08:40.140 his team sat there
00:08:40.900 and said,
00:08:41.120 don't worry.
00:08:41.680 We have Venezuela already.
00:08:42.780 We're locked
00:08:43.100 and they can do
00:08:43.540 whatever they want to do.
00:08:44.580 We have enough supplies.
00:08:45.680 We won't be desperate
00:08:46.960 and we'll also be able
00:08:48.520 to help our allies
00:08:49.820 sell oil to them
00:08:51.340 if Iran decides
00:08:52.200 to go crazy.
00:08:53.060 You are exactly right.
00:08:54.540 When the book
00:08:55.240 is written
00:08:55.820 about this chapter
00:08:57.040 of history
00:08:57.640 and how these dominoes
00:08:59.440 were arranged
00:09:00.080 and fell,
00:09:01.580 credit to Trump
00:09:02.720 and to Rubio
00:09:05.020 is going to be
00:09:06.080 very, very clear.
00:09:07.420 And Whitcoff,
00:09:08.100 those are the three
00:09:09.000 are going to get
00:09:09.720 a tremendous amount
00:09:10.920 of credit
00:09:11.580 for actually stabilizing
00:09:13.960 the world's energy
00:09:15.400 and neutralizing
00:09:17.880 the black market
00:09:18.860 shipments
00:09:19.400 to people
00:09:19.980 like China 0.66
00:09:20.980 who we wanted
00:09:22.000 to neutralize
00:09:23.060 on an economic basis.
00:09:24.360 This is 3D chess
00:09:26.520 and I believe
00:09:27.660 you are correct
00:09:28.740 that the first dominoes,
00:09:30.420 as soon as you do that
00:09:31.320 to Venezuela
00:09:31.880 and you stop
00:09:33.180 the illicit oil
00:09:33.980 going on there,
00:09:34.900 you know where
00:09:35.240 that heavy crude's
00:09:36.020 going, Vinny?
00:09:37.140 Houston.
00:09:38.080 You know where
00:09:38.460 the heavy crude
00:09:39.340 is the type of oil
00:09:40.380 that comes out of,
00:09:41.540 there's this huge valley
00:09:42.700 in Venezuela.
00:09:43.840 It's called heavy crude
00:09:45.160 and the largest
00:09:47.040 concentration
00:09:47.820 of refineries
00:09:49.060 that handle heavy crude
00:09:50.680 is in the American
00:09:52.080 Gulf Coast.
00:09:52.780 Isn't that odd?
00:09:55.680 Like it was always
00:09:56.420 set up to be that way
00:09:57.560 and it was this
00:09:58.280 communist regime
00:09:59.180 over the last 15,
00:10:00.600 20 years in Venezuela
00:10:01.660 that interrupted that.
00:10:02.760 That was always the play.
00:10:04.800 But that's the part
00:10:05.840 where, listen,
00:10:07.820 you know I always say
00:10:08.560 there's five phases
00:10:09.260 you go through
00:10:09.780 in business.
00:10:10.960 If you want to win
00:10:11.760 in life at the highest level,
00:10:12.840 I'll talk about it
00:10:13.620 on the business side
00:10:14.320 but this is political side.
00:10:15.580 First phase is the shadow phase.
00:10:17.640 You work under somebody
00:10:18.820 and you shadow them,
00:10:20.080 you see how they work.
00:10:21.460 Okay?
00:10:21.620 Then you either become
00:10:22.900 a leader in that company
00:10:24.040 so the next phase is what?
00:10:25.460 Leadership phase.
00:10:26.400 You learn how to make
00:10:27.180 tough choices.
00:10:28.500 Leadership, accountability,
00:10:29.660 pushing them, driving them.
00:10:31.200 Then you go through
00:10:32.120 the next phase
00:10:32.760 which is the process
00:10:33.520 and issues phase.
00:10:34.920 You learn how to process issues,
00:10:36.320 bigger decisions
00:10:36.900 we got to make.
00:10:37.800 So instead of buying
00:10:38.700 one camera,
00:10:39.400 you're not making
00:10:39.920 a $600,000 decision.
00:10:42.220 Then you're making
00:10:42.620 a $5 million decision.
00:10:43.820 Then making a $50 million decision
00:10:45.260 so you become better
00:10:46.300 at making decisions.
00:10:47.280 Fourth phase
00:10:47.900 is sequencing phase.
00:10:50.040 First we do this,
00:10:51.320 then we do this,
00:10:52.020 then we do that,
00:10:52.720 then we do.
00:10:53.160 So everything becomes
00:10:53.880 about sequencing
00:10:54.480 and last but not least
00:10:55.860 is solving bigger problems.
00:10:57.500 I mean,
00:10:58.000 to sit here
00:10:58.920 and think about
00:10:59.680 the fact that
00:11:00.380 they went and got
00:11:01.080 Maduro first
00:11:01.860 before attacking Iran,
00:11:04.160 you know,
00:11:04.460 when I think about Iran,
00:11:05.400 I think about Venezuela
00:11:06.220 because those are two oils.
00:11:08.260 Venezuela,
00:11:08.980 Saudi,
00:11:09.500 Iran.
00:11:10.620 By the way,
00:11:11.040 I'm convinced
00:11:13.400 that was intentional
00:11:14.540 on the way they did it.
00:11:16.180 So let me continue
00:11:16.740 the next threat
00:11:17.260 that they could have.
00:11:18.240 One is oil,
00:11:19.300 okay,
00:11:19.560 which we're seeing
00:11:20.200 what's going on right there.
00:11:21.020 Brent crude oil
00:11:22.120 global benchmark
00:11:22.760 right now,
00:11:23.200 approximately $79
00:11:24.100 to $80 a barrel
00:11:25.120 amid training
00:11:26.100 on March 2nd,
00:11:26.840 2026,
00:11:27.560 up sharply
00:11:28.400 due to geopolitical tensions.
00:11:30.740 Rob,
00:11:30.880 can you ask,
00:11:31.340 what was it on Friday?
00:11:32.520 I think on Friday,
00:11:33.480 that same exact
00:11:34.240 crude oil price
00:11:35.320 on Friday,
00:11:36.500 the Brent crude oil price,
00:11:38.420 was that $67?
00:11:40.000 So that's a quick spike
00:11:41.780 that went up,
00:11:42.440 okay?
00:11:42.800 So you folks,
00:11:43.800 you're going to feel
00:11:44.920 gas prices going up here.
00:11:47.980 Number two,
00:11:49.340 what else is Iran
00:11:50.340 7248?
00:11:51.480 Okay,
00:11:51.720 so it's up what?
00:11:52.520 About 10%.
00:11:53.440 It's up.
00:11:54.460 In a span of two days,
00:11:55.920 it's up 10%,
00:11:56.980 okay?
00:11:57.900 So now watch this.
00:11:58.840 What's the next way
00:11:59.620 they're going to attack,
00:12:00.340 Tom?
00:12:01.020 What other ways
00:12:01.760 can Iran attack?
00:12:03.060 Cyber warfare?
00:12:04.140 We've never experienced that.
00:12:06.000 Shutting down
00:12:06.480 economical systems,
00:12:08.180 shutting down
00:12:08.660 the internet,
00:12:09.840 shutting down
00:12:10.420 different electrical grids
00:12:11.940 that we have,
00:12:12.860 you know,
00:12:13.100 hitting military bases.
00:12:14.300 They're already focused
00:12:15.040 on all the military bases
00:12:16.140 around.
00:12:16.500 What they don't realize,
00:12:17.840 I think we have a military base
00:12:19.140 down the street from Iran,
00:12:20.440 not in Iran,
00:12:21.480 outside of it
00:12:22.120 with our nuclear weapons
00:12:23.200 there just waiting
00:12:24.020 in case Iran does something.
00:12:25.520 Rob,
00:12:25.860 can you type in
00:12:26.560 where are military bases
00:12:28.960 closest to Iran
00:12:30.540 where we have nuclear weapons?
00:12:33.360 Nuclear weapons.
00:12:34.360 Which ones are they?
00:12:35.720 They know that.
00:12:36.480 Iran knows this.
00:12:37.540 If they play with fire,
00:12:38.720 what capabilities
00:12:39.500 they're dealing with as well.
00:12:41.180 And by the way,
00:12:41.640 as much as Israel says
00:12:42.560 they don't have nuclear weapons,
00:12:43.560 we all know Israel
00:12:44.960 has nuclear weapons.
00:12:46.380 But it'll be our secret
00:12:47.560 that you don't have
00:12:48.140 nuclear weapons.
00:12:48.860 We know you got
00:12:49.280 nuclear weapons.
00:12:50.380 Turkey.
00:12:50.820 There you go.
00:12:51.780 So at Turkey,
00:12:52.460 historically known to host
00:12:53.560 U.S. B-61
00:12:54.940 nuclear gravity bombs
00:12:55.920 under NATO's
00:12:56.760 nuclear sharing arrangement.
00:12:58.420 That's the closest
00:12:59.000 known NATO nuclear storage
00:13:00.260 location geographically
00:13:01.660 to Iran
00:13:02.120 at present.
00:13:03.260 Rob,
00:13:03.400 can you go to maps
00:13:04.180 and see what that looks like?
00:13:06.840 Can you go to,
00:13:07.740 by the way,
00:13:08.040 go a little bit lower
00:13:08.720 to see what else it says.
00:13:09.820 Other,
00:13:10.680 Belgium,
00:13:11.120 but these are not nuclear,
00:13:12.580 right?
00:13:12.740 These are nuclear sharing sites 0.52
00:13:14.300 in Europe,
00:13:14.760 not in the Middle East,
00:13:15.600 but part of a Western nuclear
00:13:16.720 deterrent posture.
00:13:18.600 Belgium,
00:13:19.020 Germany,
00:13:19.380 Italy,
00:13:19.760 Netherlands.
00:13:20.360 Okay,
00:13:20.560 and Turkey is the one 0.94
00:13:21.460 that we looked at.
00:13:22.220 Go to the map
00:13:22.920 with Turkey and Iran,
00:13:23.880 Rob.
00:13:25.560 If you just go to map Turkey,
00:13:28.620 zoom out a little bit,
00:13:29.680 keep going,
00:13:30.120 keep going,
00:13:30.540 keep going,
00:13:31.480 keep going,
00:13:32.260 keep going,
00:13:32.880 keep going.
00:13:34.200 Okay,
00:13:34.960 so zoom out.
00:13:36.260 Where is Iran?
00:13:36.940 Turkey?
00:13:37.800 Right there.
00:13:38.640 Okay,
00:13:38.880 so that's not a log like they know.
00:13:43.360 And by the way,
00:13:44.220 Turkey's friendly with Iran.
00:13:46.280 They're neutral.
00:13:47.320 They're not supportive.
00:13:48.360 They didn't want this war to start.
00:13:49.760 They said,
00:13:50.160 don't do it.
00:13:51.200 Don't attack them.
00:13:52.100 Right?
00:13:52.280 So that's kind of Turkey's position.
00:13:53.820 They know that.
00:13:54.760 And you know what?
00:13:55.440 Iran's one of the biggest strengths
00:13:56.800 they have in Iran.
00:13:57.840 They are one of the,
00:13:59.020 by the way,
00:13:59.380 their drones,
00:14:00.420 they produce,
00:14:00.960 they sold to Russia to attack Ukraine.
00:14:02.700 So they know how to produce drones
00:14:04.640 like no other.
00:14:05.900 I think the only other country
00:14:06.900 that produces better drones than Iran 1.00
00:14:08.840 is probably Ukraine.
00:14:10.680 Rob,
00:14:10.880 can you tap in the top five best countries
00:14:12.720 in producing military level drones?
00:14:15.880 Okay,
00:14:16.100 top five countries for producing.
00:14:17.680 We're one of the worst countries in the world
00:14:19.300 for producing drones.
00:14:20.820 You know why?
00:14:21.260 Because we have all these FAA regulation.
00:14:23.660 It's not easy.
00:14:25.200 The regulation here is pretty bad.
00:14:27.360 Who is number one?
00:14:28.200 U.S.
00:14:28.820 Keep going.
00:14:30.160 Okay.
00:14:30.820 China? 0.73
00:14:32.200 Keep going.
00:14:33.960 Turkey?
00:14:34.440 Keep going.
00:14:35.240 Israel? 0.53
00:14:38.000 Iran and Ukraine are on that list.
00:14:39.840 Can you type in what?
00:14:40.640 Okay,
00:14:40.800 Iran? 0.79
00:14:42.400 Matt,
00:14:42.680 a low,
00:14:43.160 low cost.
00:14:44.400 Yeah,
00:14:44.740 that's the thing.
00:14:45.480 We make that,
00:14:46.220 we make the complicated,
00:14:47.820 the big one.
00:14:48.580 you saw that.
00:14:49.240 That's what we just saw.
00:14:50.740 Iran and Ukraine
00:14:52.240 produce the small,
00:14:54.580 cheap,
00:14:55.100 and fast.
00:14:56.200 Investing is all about the future.
00:14:58.200 So,
00:14:58.700 what do you think is going to happen?
00:15:00.220 Bitcoin is sort of inevitable at this point.
00:15:02.400 I think it would come down to precious metals.
00:15:05.240 I hope we don't go cashless.
00:15:07.480 I would say land is a safe investment.
00:15:09.980 Technology,
00:15:10.620 companies,
00:15:11.120 solar energy.
00:15:12.120 Robotic pollinators might be a thing. 1.00
00:15:14.740 A wrestler to face a robot,
00:15:16.420 that will have to happen.
00:15:18.020 So,
00:15:18.780 whatever you think is going to happen in the future,
00:15:21.520 you can invest in it at Wealthsimple.
00:15:23.760 Start now at Wealthsimple.com.
00:15:26.620 And they can,
00:15:27.460 Ukraine was making them thousands at a time,
00:15:29.740 is what they were producing.
00:15:30.920 So,
00:15:31.100 but the question becomes,
00:15:32.100 how can they retaliate?
00:15:33.180 That's the question.
00:15:33.860 Adam.
00:15:34.560 Well,
00:15:34.820 I think this Strait of Hormuz,
00:15:36.380 closing it down,
00:15:37.060 is going to backfire dramatically.
00:15:38.600 Because as we always say,
00:15:40.220 follow the money.
00:15:40.980 Who goes through there?
00:15:41.900 There's a big shipping area.
00:15:44.060 Who are the biggest exporters? 0.67
00:15:45.440 Who's shipping things out of that area?
00:15:47.380 Well,
00:15:47.560 it's all of Iran's neighbors.
00:15:49.160 Saudis. 0.98
00:15:49.740 Who they conveniently attacked.
00:15:51.480 Well,
00:15:51.600 it's all addressed.
00:15:52.720 So,
00:15:52.920 the biggest exporters out of the Strait of Hormuz,
00:15:54.660 follow the money.
00:15:55.620 Saudi,
00:15:56.580 Iraq,
00:15:57.580 the UAE,
00:15:58.760 Qatar,
00:15:59.380 and then obviously Iran.
00:16:00.940 But who are the biggest importers?
00:16:03.040 Who's basically saying,
00:16:04.020 yes,
00:16:04.140 we want your goods? 0.58
00:16:05.160 China,
00:16:06.460 India,
00:16:07.500 Japan,
00:16:08.620 South Korea,
00:16:09.300 and the EU.
00:16:10.020 Who's not on that list?
00:16:11.380 The United States.
00:16:12.260 Who's also not on that list?
00:16:13.800 Israel.
00:16:14.280 So, 0.96
00:16:14.800 it's like cutting your nose off to spite your face.
00:16:17.200 So,
00:16:17.420 that's that.
00:16:17.840 I don't think,
00:16:18.080 I think that's going to backfire dramatically.
00:16:20.000 But speaking of following the money,
00:16:22.440 who the hell are Iran's friends at this point?
00:16:27.360 Show me your friends,
00:16:28.180 I'll show you your future.
00:16:28.920 You know,
00:16:29.080 you are the five people that you surround yourself with the most.
00:16:32.040 Where's China?
00:16:33.440 Nowhere to be found.
00:16:34.780 Where's Russia?
00:16:35.900 Nowhere to be found.
00:16:37.040 Why?
00:16:37.680 Ask yourself,
00:16:38.280 why?
00:16:38.720 Why are they not showing up?
00:16:40.080 I thought World War III was going to happen.
00:16:41.580 I thought they had each other's back.
00:16:42.860 Because they're not real friends.
00:16:44.860 They're transactional friends.
00:16:46.300 Oh,
00:16:46.420 we want your oil. 0.59
00:16:47.460 We want your drones. 1.00
00:16:48.600 But China needs energy.
00:16:51.160 See what's happening in Venezuela?
00:16:52.400 We need our oil.
00:16:53.480 Oh,
00:16:53.760 we can't get it from Venezuela now.
00:16:55.200 We need Iran. 1.00
00:16:56.000 Oh my God,
00:16:56.440 what are we going to do?
00:16:57.440 Maybe we got to do a deal with Saudi. 0.99
00:16:59.480 Oh,
00:17:00.120 Russia,
00:17:00.640 we're in a war with Ukraine.
00:17:01.620 Who's funding Ukraine?
00:17:02.540 What's going on here?
00:17:03.480 Oh,
00:17:03.700 all of a sudden,
00:17:04.180 we don't have your back.
00:17:05.400 Iran and Russia,
00:17:06.120 we're supposed to have the back of Syria. 0.84
00:17:08.500 Syria,
00:17:08.940 when it fell,
00:17:09.740 these people don't have each other's backs.
00:17:12.200 So America,
00:17:13.000 we should remember,
00:17:13.700 we have friends.
00:17:14.740 We have friends in high places.
00:17:16.100 We have friends in low places.
00:17:17.640 So,
00:17:18.040 and last but not least,
00:17:19.520 Iran,
00:17:21.100 they didn't attack the U.S.
00:17:23.620 They barely even attacked Israel.
00:17:25.480 They started attacking their neighbors.
00:17:27.600 Oh yeah?
00:17:28.400 Oh yeah,
00:17:28.860 UAE,
00:17:29.440 boom.
00:17:30.060 Oh yeah,
00:17:30.440 Bahrain,
00:17:30.940 boom.
00:17:31.480 Oh yeah,
00:17:31.800 Qatar,
00:17:32.140 boom.
00:17:32.520 So now you have Arabs, 1.00
00:17:34.000 the Arab Gulf states.
00:17:35.540 They woke up to this war.
00:17:37.860 They were upset with who?
00:17:39.200 The United States and Israel.
00:17:40.760 And by the time they went to bed,
00:17:42.520 they were upset with Iran.
00:17:44.040 Walk me through your logic. 0.94
00:17:45.780 This is a complete buffoonery out of Iran. 1.00
00:17:48.820 Listen, 0.90
00:17:49.420 as we're going through this,
00:17:51.100 the one thing that we can't recognize enough
00:17:54.940 for what they do is the armed forces,
00:17:57.560 the folks in the army,
00:17:58.800 navy,
00:17:59.160 marines,
00:18:00.300 you know,
00:18:00.760 air force,
00:18:02.340 every one of these guys on what they're doing.
00:18:04.200 Without them,
00:18:04.880 you and I wouldn't have the freedom that we have
00:18:06.580 to be safe,
00:18:08.140 to go out there and do what we're doing.
00:18:09.420 Sometimes you forget about the military,
00:18:10.900 but if you're somebody that served in the military
00:18:12.780 and you believe the future looks bright,
00:18:15.560 or you have a friend or family that does,
00:18:18.200 and you want to recognize them,
00:18:19.480 Rob,
00:18:19.680 if you can go up,
00:18:21.040 VT merch,
00:18:21.640 we have an armed force collection.
00:18:22.920 If you can go down a little bit,
00:18:23.980 there's two hats that every time we get them,
00:18:26.200 we can't keep them on.
00:18:27.060 That's one of them,
00:18:27.680 but keep going down,
00:18:28.460 keep going down,
00:18:28.940 keep going down,
00:18:29.600 keep going down.
00:18:30.580 That one to the right,
00:18:31.620 you see that one zoom in?
00:18:33.040 This one,
00:18:33.960 whenever it comes in,
00:18:35.220 it goes just as quickly.
00:18:36.920 I love that.
00:18:37.360 It's an incredible,
00:18:38.560 by the way,
00:18:38.860 if you want to get,
00:18:39.680 yeah,
00:18:39.980 the future looks bright,
00:18:40.920 green camo,
00:18:41.800 and then also,
00:18:42.940 Rob,
00:18:43.200 go back if you can.
00:18:44.400 There's another one as well on the bottom left.
00:18:46.080 Keep going,
00:18:46.540 keep going,
00:18:46.980 keep going right there.
00:18:48.280 Those two,
00:18:49.080 those two are two of the most popular hats
00:18:50.760 that we have for folks in the military
00:18:52.860 that wear with future looks bright
00:18:54.160 on the right side.
