- 0:10Speaker 1: make a new decision that's going to be best for
- 0:12Speaker 1: you and not what somebody told you to do. And

- 0:28Speaker 1: you and maybe the side of your h it's time
- 0:31Speaker 1: to stop reading other people's success stories to start living
- 0:34Speaker 1: your own keep winning. My next guess is truly an
- 0:42Speaker 1: industry decision maker. He's doctor George C. Fraser. He's the
- 0:46Speaker 1: chairman and CEO of Fraser Net, a company he founded
- 0:49Speaker 1: over thirty years ago. Doctor George C. Fraser is a
- 0:52Speaker 1: renowned networking guru, business leader, author and entrepreneur who's regardless
- 0:57Speaker 1: one of the whoemost respected authority on entrepreneurship and building

- 1:06Speaker 1: the Black community. Frash of that vision is to lead
- 1:09Speaker 1: a global networking movement that brings together diverse human resources

- 1:27Speaker 2: to be back with you.
- 1:28Speaker 1: Well, you know, whenever I bring you all, I kind
- 1:30Speaker 1: of like bring my pencil because I learned when I
- 1:32Speaker 1: get doctor George Fraser on the show.
- 1:35Speaker 2: Amen, Well I learned when I listen to you too.
- 1:37Speaker 2: You know you learn, you learn when you listen as well.
- 1:40Speaker 1: Well, you know that the beauty of it. I know
- 1:41Speaker 1: your conference zone was leave last month. And but we
- 1:45Speaker 1: always talked about generational wealth. We always talked about black
- 1:48Speaker 1: people always getting secondhand information. Black people are minorities and period,
- 1:54Speaker 1: especially people of African descent, not understanding the pathway to success.
- 1:59Speaker 1: And there are a lot of pathways. And I brought you
- 2:01Speaker 1: on the show. It's a live show I now do
- 2:03Speaker 1: on WCLK every Tuesday. I wanted to reach more people,
- 2:07Speaker 1: especially people in the Latin market, and that's one of
- 2:09Speaker 1: the reasons I wanted to bring you own the show
- 2:11Speaker 1: to discuss some of your views and also if we
- 2:14Speaker 1: have time, take some questions and some phone calls. Our
- 2:16Speaker 1: phone number is four zero four eight eight zero nine
- 2:20Speaker 1: two five five. That's four zero four eight eight zero
- 2:23Speaker 1: ninety two five five, Doctor George C. Fraser talk about
- 2:26Speaker 1: the importance of building a solid foundation and financial legacy,
- 2:31Speaker 1: and that's your that is your legacy.
- 2:33Speaker 2: Oh yeah, man, that's one of my favorite subjects. And
- 2:36Speaker 2: I love you for covering it, and I love being
- 2:39Speaker 2: on your show because you're you're an expert, and you
- 2:43Speaker 2: reach so many people, and you're so knowledgeable about a
- 2:46Speaker 2: lot of things, and you have a tremendous amount of
- 2:49Speaker 2: energy and passion. So let me just say it as
- 2:52Speaker 2: I said it to you once before and to your audience.
- 2:55Speaker 2: To be black and beautiful in this world means nothing
- 2:57Speaker 2: unless you're black and powerful, whiteful, planning for three generations.
- 3:01Speaker 2: And we're planning for Saturday night. So the goal is
- 3:04Speaker 2: to win, not to look like we're winning.
- 3:06Speaker 3: Right.
- 3:07Speaker 2: I would rather carry a plastic bag with five thousand
- 3:10Speaker 2: dollars in it than to carry a five thousand dollars
- 3:12Speaker 2: Louis Vton' bag with one hundred dollars in it. It's
- 3:15Speaker 2: interesting to Meaver sean the rich day rich by pretending
- 3:18Speaker 2: to be poor, and the poor stay poor by pretending
- 3:21Speaker 2: to be rich. And if we do not change our activities,
- 3:26Speaker 2: if we do not change our understanding of capitalism and
- 3:29Speaker 2: investment in the twenty first century, we are headed into
- 3:33Speaker 2: a second slavery right, and we have to fix this.
- 3:37Speaker 2: It was the great doctor Amos Wilson, you can see
- 3:41Speaker 2: his videos on YouTube, who said, our refusal as black
- 3:45Speaker 2: people to confront the issue of money and wealth is
- 3:48Speaker 2: going to end up with our very lives being threatened
- 3:51Speaker 2: as people on this earth. So we have to get
- 3:55Speaker 2: our act together, and we have to become financially educated.
- 4:00Speaker 1: When you say financial educated, what do.
- 4:01Speaker 2: You mean When I say financial education, I mean learning
- 4:07Speaker 2: the rules and the game of capitalism. It is educating
- 4:13Speaker 2: ourselves around all of the elements that drive capitalism and
- 4:21Speaker 2: how we can leverage those opportunities and build assets beyond
- 4:28Speaker 2: the very conservative ways that we have built assets over
- 4:32Speaker 2: the last two generations. And what I'm suggesting is that
- 4:38Speaker 2: we really need to look in the latest opportunity of cryptocurrency.
- 4:45Speaker 1: Because cryptocurrency is something that I hear a lot. I'm
- 4:49Speaker 1: going to I know nothing about from a standpoint of
- 4:51Speaker 1: how I can participate because it feels very foreign to me,
- 4:56Speaker 1: and it feels like it's not a valid currency because
- 4:59Speaker 1: I'm so used to putting my money in the bank,
- 5:01Speaker 1: I'm so used to sing to the stock market. I'm
- 5:03Speaker 1: so basically buying a home or buying a car. When
- 5:06Speaker 1: I hear word cryptocurrency, what what is blocking me? What
- 5:10Speaker 1: information am I missing that I'm not participating in? Doctor Fraser?
- 5:14Speaker 2: Well, I think the first question that we have to
- 5:16Speaker 2: ask ourselves so that we will we will be motivated
- 5:20Speaker 2: to take an interest in to take a deep dive
- 5:22Speaker 2: into study what this whole cryptocurrency movement is about. Is
- 5:26Speaker 2: we've got to ask why crypto? Right? Why crypto and
- 5:30Speaker 2: not you know, savings accounts, five us CDs, mutual funds
- 5:33Speaker 2: for one case, and stock market as the s and
- 5:37Speaker 2: P five hundred market, real estate and goal Right, those
- 5:41Speaker 2: are the things that we understand. Those are the things
- 5:44Speaker 2: are hard and paper assets, and those are the things
- 5:48Speaker 2: that we're comfortable with. But they're not going to allow
- 5:51Speaker 2: us to get economic equity. And what I mean by
- 5:54Speaker 2: economic equity, uh, the rates in which those assets pay
- 5:59Speaker 2: us are not allow us to close the income and
- 6:01Speaker 2: wealth gap between black folk and white folk. Right, white
- 6:05Speaker 2: folk have ten times the household median wealth as black people.
- 6:11Speaker 2: So we've got to do some things that will help
- 6:14Speaker 2: us close this gap, and we've got to think outside
- 6:17Speaker 2: of the box. Yes, we're going to have to take
- 6:20Speaker 2: some risks, there's no question about that. But no risk,
- 6:24Speaker 2: no reward. We have got to find ways, Rashaan to
- 6:30Speaker 2: leverage and compound the stacked and assets that we have.
- 6:34Speaker 2: These assets are stagnant. There the small percentage of interest
- 6:39Speaker 2: that we're making on Let's say, let's look at some
- 6:41Speaker 2: interest rates on some of the traditional investments that black
- 6:44Speaker 2: folks have made historically, including myself savings accounts. All right,
- 6:49Speaker 2: they're very, very safe, but the annual interest rate on
- 6:53Speaker 2: a savings account is a half a percent. That's not
- 6:56Speaker 2: even keeping up with inflation. So a half a percent
- 7:00Speaker 2: annually on your money. I just got a document from
- 7:03Speaker 2: a good friend who had eighty nine thousand dollars in
- 7:06Speaker 2: Wells Fargo in his savings account, and he wanted me
- 7:09Speaker 2: to see it because I was talking about it, and
- 7:12Speaker 2: he showed me his December to twenty twenty statement of
- 7:17Speaker 2: this interest he ranked he earned on eighty nine thousand dollars.
- 7:21Speaker 2: I'm looking at him. He earned seventy six cents on
- 7:25Speaker 2: eighty nine thousand dollars in a year from Wells Fargo.
- 7:30Speaker 2: You know how much Wells Fargo made on his eighty
- 7:33Speaker 2: nine thousand dollars, and he only made seventy six cents. Now,
- 7:38Speaker 2: it's safe, there's no question about that. The FDIC protects
- 7:43Speaker 2: you in case the bank goes down, but it's going
- 7:46Speaker 2: to take you thirty years to get your money back.
- 7:48Speaker 2: That's on average, what it takes if if a bank
- 7:51Speaker 2: fails you and you're protected by FDIIC. But most importantly,
- 7:55Speaker 2: you're only you're only earning less than a half a
- 7:58Speaker 2: percent a year on your heart money. The principle is
- 8:01Speaker 2: to put your money to work harder for you than
- 8:03Speaker 2: you did for it. Take a five year CD. A
- 8:07Speaker 2: five year CD certificate of depositive only pays one third
- 8:12Speaker 2: of a penny, right, one third zero point three one
- 8:17Speaker 2: percent annually. Right, that's less than a savings account. A
- 8:23Speaker 2: mutual fund pays you about ten to fourteen percent annually
- 8:28Speaker 2: on average, four one K about ten to eleven percent annually.
- 8:34Speaker 2: The stock market about nine point two percent annually. The
- 8:39Speaker 2: s and P five hundred market if you're if you're
- 8:42Speaker 2: investing in the best stocks, is about thirteen point six
- 8:46Speaker 2: percent annually. Real estate pays ten to eleven percent annually,
- 8:51Speaker 2: and goals, if you invest in goal, is about ten
- 8:54Speaker 2: point six percent annually. So let me tell you what
- 8:57Speaker 2: I've done with crypto and just nine months. I started
- 9:01Speaker 2: in the crypto space after studying it for a year,
- 9:04Speaker 2: and I started by entering one opportunity, one platform after
- 9:10Speaker 2: studying that platform. All right, so I started my crypto
- 9:15Speaker 2: journey nine months ago. This is the truth. I could
- 9:18Speaker 2: show it to you, I could verify. I started with
- 9:21Speaker 2: about ten thousand dollars in cash. Where did I take it?
- 9:25Speaker 2: I took it from my savings account, which was paying
- 9:28Speaker 2: me a little or nothing. Yeah, yeah, absolutely, not less
- 9:35Speaker 2: than five percent, less than a half a percent.
- 9:38Speaker 1: Apologize, I'm giving it too much.
- 9:39Speaker 2: Credit, less than a half of this tent right. So
- 9:44Speaker 2: I started with ten thousand dollars cash, which I took
- 9:47Speaker 2: for my savings account, which would pay me less than
- 9:49Speaker 2: a half a percent, of which I had sixty thousand
- 9:52Speaker 2: dollars in because we were always taught to say for
- 9:54Speaker 2: a rainy day, right, So that was my rainy day money.
- 9:58Speaker 2: I took ten thousand dollars cash out of that. In
- 10:01Speaker 2: January of this year, I invested in a crypto platform
- 10:08Speaker 2: called for Sage, which was really an ethereum.
- 10:12Speaker 3: Uh.
- 10:13Speaker 2: You know, there's ethereum, there's bitcoin. Bitcoin is the is
- 10:17Speaker 2: the number one cryptocurrency, and Ethereum is the number two cryptocurrency.
- 10:23Speaker 2: Bitcoin is at about forty six thousand dollars a coin,
- 10:26Speaker 2: and Ethereum today is about thirty four thousand dollars a coin.
- 10:31Speaker 2: But when I invested in it, let's see nine months ago. No,
- 10:38Speaker 2: it's actually a little bit more than that, is about
- 10:40Speaker 2: twelve months ago. But a year ago, Ethereum was one
- 10:43Speaker 2: hundred and ninety seven dollars a coin.
- 10:46Speaker 1: Today, okay, okay, okay, got doctor, you're about to get
- 10:50Speaker 1: me mad now now you just say it. It's thirty
- 10:53Speaker 1: four thousand dollars a coin, and you invested when it
- 10:56Speaker 1: was one hundred dollars a coin, right, that's what you
- 10:58Speaker 1: just said.
- 11:00Speaker 2: On ethereum. Ethereum is thirty four hundred dollars a coin.
- 11:05Speaker 2: I invested in it about a year ago when it
- 11:07Speaker 2: was one hundred and ninety seven dollars a coin, and
- 11:10Speaker 2: My investment today is worth eighty seven thousand dollars cash money.
- 11:17Speaker 2: Then I invested in my second platform, this is no
- 11:20Speaker 2: PS for Sean and it was called cash. It was
- 11:24Speaker 2: called CFX All Cash FX. That was an investment in
- 11:28Speaker 2: the foreign exchange market. You get in with bitcoin and
- 11:31Speaker 2: you get paid in bitcoin. I invested seven thousand dollars
- 11:36Speaker 2: in CFX. Today, my seven thousand dollars is worth ninety
- 11:41Speaker 2: six thousand dollars. My third investment was in hyperfund, which
- 11:48Speaker 2: is investment in the crypto ecosystem, and that investment I
- 11:53Speaker 2: invested about five thousand dollars. That investment is worth fifty
- 11:59Speaker 2: thousand dollars. Right. So when you look at the money
- 12:03Speaker 2: that I invested about ten thousand dollars right right, I
- 12:08Speaker 2: have earned two hundred and thirty six thousand dollars or
- 12:12Speaker 2: a twenty four hundred percent return on my investment in
- 12:17Speaker 2: less than a year.
- 12:19Speaker 1: And that's on the market that I said earlier that
- 12:22Speaker 1: I have refused to sit down to learn about. And
- 12:25Speaker 1: that's what so many African Americans are, people of color
- 12:27Speaker 1: or minoritists are refusing to educate themselves. And that's why
- 12:30Speaker 1: I really started this show because I wanted to start.
- 12:32Speaker 1: I want to engage more people, doctor Fraser, because my
- 12:35Speaker 1: fear shouldn't be your fear. If you want to call
- 12:37Speaker 1: and make a comment, please do. I'm presently talking to
- 12:39Speaker 1: doctor Georgey Fraser. He is a chairman and CEO of
- 12:42Speaker 1: Fraser Net Inc. The company founded over thirty years ago.
- 12:46Speaker 1: The person I met twenty years ago when I was
- 12:48Speaker 1: with Steve Harvey. That's how long I've known this brother,
- 12:51Speaker 1: and he's a great brother. He's providing information on because
- 12:53Speaker 1: we want to hear you on the phone, or we
- 12:55Speaker 1: want to hear some more from doctor Georgey Fraser.
- 12:59Speaker 4: Please tell me anywhere. We'll be right back with more
- 13:02Speaker 4: money Making Conversations Masterclass. Welcome back to the money Making
- 13:09Speaker 4: Conversations Masterclass hosted by Rashan McDonald. Money Making Conversations Masterclass
- 13:15Speaker 4: continues online at Moneymakingconversations dot com and follow money Making
- 13:20Speaker 4: Conversations Masterclass on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
- 13:24Speaker 1: Welcome back to money Making Conversation. I am your host,
- 13:26Speaker 1: Rashan McDonald. Money Making Conversations a platform are created to
- 13:30Speaker 1: supply everybody with information, not just a few people. The
- 13:33Speaker 1: problem with this world, especially in the minority community, is
- 13:36Speaker 1: that information is kind of like precious. You know, a
- 13:39Speaker 1: few people get in and don't want to share. And
- 13:41Speaker 1: what I've been doing for the longest, since i started
- 13:44Speaker 1: money making conversation at twenty seventeen, is to bring individuals on.
- 13:48Speaker 1: I have ash cash he's own. After this break, he's
- 13:50Speaker 1: going to be on the show in studio talking about
- 13:52Speaker 1: motivating people to success. But I felt there was no
- 13:55Speaker 1: one that could do it better. That started today with
- 13:57Speaker 1: doctor GEORGEI. Fraser, because that's a certain honest about him. Plus,
- 14:01Speaker 1: you know, he's been through decades. You know, you want
- 14:04Speaker 1: somebody to have been through a lot of decades. He's
- 14:06Speaker 1: been through the Civil Rights decade. He had been through
- 14:08Speaker 1: the big Afro decades.
- 14:10Speaker 2: He hadn't been through you know, seventy seven, absolutely decades.
- 14:15Speaker 2: Something made a lot of mistakes. I failed my way
- 14:19Speaker 2: to success. But I was curious, right I was, And
- 14:22Speaker 2: that's the key. And you've got to be intellectually curious.
- 14:25Speaker 2: You got to do their study, take the deep dive
- 14:27Speaker 2: so that you could do some critical thinking and then,
- 14:29Speaker 2: as Bernie Mac would say, bust the damn move, do
- 14:32Speaker 2: something different. You know, an.
- 14:34Speaker 1: Interesting thing about that doctor Georgey Fraser, is that we
- 14:37Speaker 1: know what I listened listen to you. First of all,
- 14:39Speaker 1: people are always worried about their age, and I always
- 14:41Speaker 1: say that at the top of my show because I
- 14:43Speaker 1: really didn't find out who I was until I was
- 14:45Speaker 1: in my forties. Accept the responsibility of what I could accomplish,
- 14:49Speaker 1: you know, because a lot of people waiting for this
- 14:51Speaker 1: magic or they hit fifty to just stop, and they
- 14:54Speaker 1: hit sixty and they think the government is going to
- 14:56Speaker 1: take care of them with something in retirement. And we
- 14:59Speaker 1: all know that's a lot that's worse than they. And
- 15:03Speaker 1: so the reason I've always looked at you because you
- 15:06Speaker 1: remain topical and it's not like you're trying to be young,
- 15:09Speaker 1: just like I'm not trying to be young. But the
- 15:11Speaker 1: information you always gave my audience and me was so relevant.
- 15:15Speaker 1: What what guides you down that line of being saying
- 15:18Speaker 1: you know some I'm just I'm just a sponge, but
- 15:21Speaker 1: I'm not going to act like I know more, but
- 15:23Speaker 1: I want to share more, talk about you for a
- 15:25Speaker 1: little bit true.
- 15:26Speaker 2: Yeah, you know. My goal is to give back the
- 15:32Speaker 2: knowledge that the Creator has allowed me to learn, that
- 15:37Speaker 2: he has poured into me, that I have learned, and
- 15:41Speaker 2: my moral responsibility and spiritual responsibility is to give it
- 15:46Speaker 2: back because that is the purpose of life. Rashon the
- 15:50Speaker 2: purpose of life is very simple. God doesn't make anything complicated.
- 15:53Speaker 2: We make things complicated. We make things complicated so we
- 15:56Speaker 2: don't have to do it. The more complicated we make it,
- 15:58Speaker 2: the more reasons we have doing it. And we make
- 16:01Speaker 2: things complicated to control power. If I am the only
- 16:04Speaker 2: one that knows a certain thing, and I have power
- 16:08Speaker 2: over you. So my job is to keep it simple
- 16:11Speaker 2: and to share it. That is the reason God has
- 16:14Speaker 2: given me more and more and information, because the more
- 16:18Speaker 2: He gives me, the more I share, and that is
- 16:20Speaker 2: congruent with the purpose of life. The purpose of life
- 16:22Speaker 2: is very simple. It is to love, to give, to serve,
- 16:26Speaker 2: and to add the highest value to somebody or something
- 16:30Speaker 2: every single minute of every single day. That is why
- 16:33Speaker 2: we are living. There is no other reason for you
- 16:35Speaker 2: to be sucking up this good air. It's loving, serving
- 16:38Speaker 2: and adding value. So I want to add value. I
- 16:41Speaker 2: want to get to heaven right, and I'm going to
- 16:43Speaker 2: get to heaven by giving away. When I say this,
- 16:46Speaker 2: metaphorically giving away that which I have been giving, so
- 16:50Speaker 2: that it can be leveraged, right, and more of our
- 16:53Speaker 2: people can benefit from the assets and the knowledge and
- 16:58Speaker 2: the successes that I have achieved. That's really what it's
- 17:01Speaker 2: all about. That's really Let me give you a metaphor.
- 17:06Speaker 2: It's called teamwork. Okay, let me give you a metaphor.
- 17:09Speaker 2: This is and it's a true story. I'm gonna ask
- 17:12Speaker 2: you a question, simple question. Who holds the world record
- 17:17Speaker 2: for one hundred meters? Who holds the world record for
- 17:22Speaker 2: one hundred meters? The answer to that is Usain Bolt
- 17:27Speaker 2: from Jamaica, right right. He did it at nine point
- 17:32Speaker 2: five eight seconds. He holds the world record four hundred
- 17:37Speaker 2: meters at nine point five eight seconds. Now, the next
- 17:40Speaker 2: question is who owns the four by one hundred relay
- 17:45Speaker 2: world record? Who holds that? It is the Jamaican track team,
- 17:49Speaker 2: the men's Jamaican track team, of which usein Bolt runs on.
- 17:56Speaker 2: They finished the four by one hundred in thirty six
- 18:00Speaker 2: point eight four seconds. Now, if you do your math,
- 18:07Speaker 2: that's nine point two one seconds or thirty one seconds
- 18:13Speaker 2: faster than the world record. And Hussein Boat was on
- 18:17Speaker 2: that relay team and they ran four one hundred meters
- 18:21Speaker 2: faster than he ran a single one hundred meters. So
- 18:24Speaker 2: what does that mean? That means when we work together,
- 18:27Speaker 2: when we collaborate, when we share, when we run share,
- 18:30Speaker 2: when we run together, none of us is as good
- 18:33Speaker 2: as all of us put together. So we've got to
- 18:36Speaker 2: run together. We've got to run as one. That means
- 18:38Speaker 2: we have to share. If I have good knowledge and
- 18:41Speaker 2: good information, right, I will share it with you. If
- 18:45Speaker 2: you want to do something I'm doing, I make it
- 18:47Speaker 2: easy for you to do that.
- 18:49Speaker 1: Cool.
- 18:49Speaker 2: That's the phrasier.
- 18:51Speaker 1: We have a call here, or like I said, Warren
- 18:53Speaker 1: from Atlanta, he has he called and answer a question
- 18:56Speaker 1: on money made conversation. Warren, how are you doing that?
- 18:58Speaker 2: I'm good?
- 18:59Speaker 1: How are you, doctor George? See Fraser on the call here?
- 19:02Speaker 1: What was your question? My friend? Thank you for calling
- 19:04Speaker 1: in on money making Conversation on WCLK.
- 19:07Speaker 3: Sure, doctor Fraser, how are you deceivening?
- 19:10Speaker 2: I'm doing wonderful.
- 19:10Speaker 3: Thank you good. With thirty years of experience with entrepreneurship
- 19:18Speaker 3: among the black community, how would you prioritize the cryptocurrency
- 19:23Speaker 3: you mentioned among the other opportunities that exist for entrepreneurs
- 19:28Speaker 3: to do well in the community. We have an absence
- 19:31Speaker 3: of media, We have food, deserts and the like. How
- 19:36Speaker 3: would you rank cryptocurrency.
- 19:40Speaker 2: Well, I think the number one thing that Black folks
- 19:45Speaker 2: have to focus on in the twenty first century is
- 19:47Speaker 2: building wealth that will come through financial literacy and financial education.
- 19:52Speaker 2: What's the first thing slaves did when they became free.
- 19:54Speaker 2: They start building small schools or classrooms in small schools,
- 19:58Speaker 2: the largest schools and the more than one hundred years, we
- 20:00Speaker 2: had an entire system of historically black colleges and university.
- 20:04Speaker 2: So education, education, that's the number one priority. Is financial
- 20:10Speaker 2: education that will lead to building wealth and closing the
- 20:14Speaker 2: income and wealth gap and then ultimately creating working jobs
- 20:18Speaker 2: for our people, as hopefully we will become the number
- 20:21Speaker 2: one employer of our own people by the end of
- 20:24Speaker 2: the twenty first century, which means that we end also
- 20:26Speaker 2: have to engage in business building. So if I was
- 20:31Speaker 2: to categorize under the headline of financial education and economic development,
- 20:41Speaker 2: under the headline which is number one, that's the number
- 20:45Speaker 2: one thing under that headline would be business building, business building,
- 20:55Speaker 2: and then number two would be taking advantage of the
- 21:02Speaker 2: newest economic opportunity for closing the income and wealth gap,
- 21:08Speaker 2: and that is cryptocurrency. That's the number one of the
- 21:14Speaker 2: area of interest that we need to be fold if
- 21:18Speaker 2: we really really want to close this gap cryptocurrency.
- 21:24Speaker 1: When you say that, doctor Fraser, that also means you
- 21:26Speaker 1: have to lend yourself to education. And uh that's and
- 21:29Speaker 1: also and walk into the valley of the unknown, because,
- 21:33Speaker 1: like you said earlier, my whole thing about the show,
- 21:35Speaker 1: and I'm glad people are calling in. If we've got
- 21:37Speaker 1: enough number of calls, we want to talk to you
- 21:38Speaker 1: today on the show. And thank you for calling again
- 21:41Speaker 1: coming in on my show today to discuss this, Doctor
- 21:43Speaker 1: Georgeie Frasier.
- 21:44Speaker 2: Is that all right?
- 21:45Speaker 1: Thank you, Thank you my friend, Thank you Warren for

- 21:49Speaker 1: important people on the show that's going to lead you
- 21:51Speaker 1: to areas that are going to give you information to
- 21:53Speaker 1: win with. It's by money making conversations. But what I
- 21:56Speaker 1: want to say about cryptocurrency, what I like to always
- 21:58Speaker 1: tell people about I have flaws and what I won't
- 22:01Speaker 1: do no matter what house you see I live in,
- 22:03Speaker 1: or what you see me post on social media, what
- 22:06Speaker 1: car you see me drive. That doesn't just mean a
- 22:08Speaker 1: perfect person that's driving that vehicle. It's a person who
- 22:10Speaker 1: has fear as a person who has doubts about himself,
- 22:14Speaker 1: but he overcome that because of the fact I have
- 22:16Speaker 1: relationship and mentors and people who are conturned to for advice.
- 22:20Speaker 1: This show is like your advice show. You call in,
- 22:22Speaker 1: we give you advice. You go do your research. Please
- 22:25Speaker 1: do not hold us accountable if you don't do your research.
- 22:28Speaker 1: And even if you do your research, don't hold us
- 22:29Speaker 1: accountable because you have them. In other words, could be
- 22:33Speaker 1: a lady or man. Listen to me, Man up. I'm
- 22:35Speaker 1: just using a general statement about your life. If you
- 22:38Speaker 1: want to stay play it safe and keep your money
- 22:40Speaker 1: in saving, keep it there, keep it there. But don't
- 22:44Speaker 1: be mad if your friend does not play it safe
- 22:49Speaker 1: and they invest a little bit of money like he is,
- 22:51Speaker 1: say one hundred thousand dollars. He didn say a million dollars.
- 22:54Speaker 3: He said.
- 22:54Speaker 1: He broke it up ten thousand dollars in three different ways,
- 22:57Speaker 1: and he came back a happy man. Now I'm mad
- 22:59Speaker 1: at him because he didn't tail me. That's all I
- 23:03Speaker 1: say about the job. He didn't tell me because he
- 23:05Speaker 1: got my number. He got my number everybody, but he
- 23:07Speaker 1: didn't tell me though.
- 23:08Speaker 2: All Right, So I'm gonna I'm gonna put this out.
- 23:10Speaker 2: I love what. I love you for saying that. I
- 23:12Speaker 2: love you for saying that because because it makes a
- 23:15Speaker 2: very very very important point. We cannot not do something
- 23:22Speaker 2: because either we fear it, or we're operating out of
- 23:26Speaker 2: a scarcity mentality or fear mentality, or we don't know.
- 23:31Speaker 2: There are brothers and sisters that do know. So I
- 23:35Speaker 2: have five hundred people in my network who were interested
- 23:40Speaker 2: in crypto, and we bring in the experts. We try
- 23:45Speaker 2: to understand what are the best, blessed best platforms to
- 23:48Speaker 2: invest in. So, because you don't know, or the people
- 23:51Speaker 2: in your audience may not know, if they got in
- 23:54Speaker 2: touch with me, I do know, and I can prove
- 23:59Speaker 2: that I know, and then I could help it along
- 24:01Speaker 2: with my team raw experts in this space help you
- 24:06Speaker 2: make the right and the safest investment. Doesn't mean that
- 24:09Speaker 2: it still isn't risk. Of course, it's all risk. Everything
- 24:14Speaker 2: is risking you invest in the stock market is all risk.
- 24:16Speaker 1: A question about it, Hey, doctor George, I want to
- 24:20Speaker 1: get in one more call before we go to break
- 24:22Speaker 1: rodrigaz in Atlanta has another crypto currency. Like I said,
- 24:25Speaker 1: you don't fire today, you don't fire today. I love it.
- 24:27Speaker 1: I love it, Rodriguez. This is Rashan McDonald speaking to you,
- 24:30Speaker 1: and on the call is also doctor GEORGEI Fraser. What's
- 24:33Speaker 1: your question?
- 24:37Speaker 3: Hello?
- 24:37Speaker 1: Are you still there? What's the next question? We at okay,
- 24:42Speaker 1: turnbot and decata. You had a question about an investment
- 24:45Speaker 1: turnbull turnbile? Is it turnbull or turnbou turn turnbo? Okay?
- 24:52Speaker 1: Thank you for calling money Making Conversation. What is your
- 24:54Speaker 1: question that you want to ask on Money Making Conversation today?
- 24:58Speaker 5: My question is what about We're talked about cryptocurrency and
- 25:06Speaker 5: it sounds really good, but what about for those folks
- 25:09Speaker 5: who don't have, you know, a large amount of money
- 25:14Speaker 5: to invest in cryptocurrencies or something like that? Is there
- 25:18Speaker 5: another level below that where we can start to get
- 25:21Speaker 5: in and see some uh some good returns on?
- 25:26Speaker 2: Yes, of course there is. You could start with as
- 25:30Speaker 2: little as three hundred dollars. I started with ten thousand
- 25:33Speaker 2: dollars because ten thousand dollars is like three hundred dollars
- 25:36Speaker 2: to me, so if I lost it tomorrow, it wouldn't
- 25:39Speaker 2: make one damn bit of difference in my life. You
- 25:41Speaker 2: could start with three hundred.
- 25:43Speaker 1: Dollars, absolutely, you know the beauty of what I would
- 25:47Speaker 1: would you just say it is people tend to put
- 25:49Speaker 1: value on what I can start. You know, don't look
- 25:51Speaker 1: at imagine if you if you need to be starting
- 25:53Speaker 1: in an apartment. Now I would tell people, you know,
- 25:56Speaker 1: if you make one hundred thousand dollars, you're not going
- 25:58Speaker 1: to live a lifestyllar a ten times dollars person, because
- 26:01Speaker 1: I wish I could still keep buying the same two pays,
- 26:04Speaker 1: keep buying the same because you don't elevate your game.
- 26:06Speaker 1: That's all he said. If he had three hundred dollars,
- 26:09Speaker 1: he would invest it, but he got ten thousand dollars.
- 26:11Speaker 1: So you took it the wrong way. You took it
- 26:13Speaker 1: like he had a lot of money and you had
- 26:14Speaker 1: a lot of money to participate. This is money making conversation.
- 26:19Speaker 1: We're just breaking it down to everybody who's listening. Listen
- 26:22Speaker 1: to me right now. You can be part of the
- 26:24Speaker 1: big dream, but you have to stop shutting yourself down
- 26:28Speaker 1: and hearing what you want to hear. And that's when
- 26:31Speaker 1: I go back to the point. Education and what stops
- 26:34Speaker 1: people for investing in themselves or in the stock. They
- 26:38Speaker 1: are fearful. You can buy five dollar stock you can
- 26:41Speaker 1: buy penny stock, you can buy anything you want. But
- 26:44Speaker 1: what you do is you look. You look on TV
- 26:47Speaker 1: and you see, you know, you see the Amazon CEO,
- 26:50Speaker 1: billion dollar man. You see the guy going to space.
- 26:53Speaker 1: You know, all of a sudden you say, I can
- 26:54Speaker 1: never go to space because I can't afford one hundred
- 26:56Speaker 1: and twenty five thousand space. C Well, you want supposed
- 27:00Speaker 1: to be trying to get in that seat. What you
- 27:01Speaker 1: were supposed to be doing is looking at how he
- 27:03Speaker 1: got there. Do your research so you can get there.
