- 1:10Speaker 1: Welcome to Money Making Conversations Masterclass. Josh Jolynski.
- 1:14Speaker 2: How you doing, Josh, great Rashan, thanks for having me.
- 1:17Speaker 1: I'm gonna make some public here, Josh. I'm over sixty, okay,
- 1:20Speaker 1: I'm over sixty okay, And you.
- 1:23Speaker 2: Don't look at day over fifty.
- 1:26Speaker 1: I'm over. I'm over, brother, I'm over. And what happens
- 1:29Speaker 1: is in my peer group, you know, we get to
- 1:32Speaker 1: a certain point fifty, forty, especially forty, we started getting
- 1:35Speaker 1: nervous fifty and we haven't figured out what we're gonna do.
- 1:38Speaker 1: And they think these they think social Security has a
- 1:40Speaker 1: plan waiting on them that's gonna save their lives. Where
- 1:44Speaker 1: has this this false theory that social Security has a
- 1:49Speaker 1: check that you will be able to live on. Where
- 1:52Speaker 1: did they come from?
- 1:53Speaker 3: I have no clue. I was gonna say the devil,
- 1:59Speaker 3: you know. I think the idea was maybe that their
- 2:04Speaker 3: grandparents lived on Social Security after they paid off their house.
- 2:10Speaker 3: You know, maybe the depression era mindset. I remember my
- 2:13Speaker 3: grandmother in North Carolina would live under social Security checks,
- 2:19Speaker 3: so maybe that was where it was. You know, so
- 2:23Speaker 3: I don't know who's living on so old security today though.
- 2:26Speaker 2: You know, maybe it came from twenty forty years ago,
- 2:28Speaker 2: right now.
- 2:29Speaker 3: My grandmother, you know, she passed away in the nineties,
- 2:31Speaker 3: so maybe the eighties, the nineties. But I don't know
- 2:34Speaker 3: anybody living on Social Security today.
- 2:36Speaker 1: You can't. You can't. Let's go, let's clear that up.
- 2:39Speaker 1: On this show. You listening to Josh, she's the financial quarterback,
- 2:43Speaker 1: popular show on Park, popular packcas you get him on
- 2:46Speaker 1: Spotify downloaded. But more importantly, the information that you're giving
- 2:50Speaker 1: me on this show I use. When I heard words inflation,
- 2:54Speaker 1: We're just talking about everyday people, Josh, you know, and
- 2:57Speaker 1: they run for office. You listen to the six o'clock
- 3:00Speaker 1: or seven o'clock news, they talk to the word inflation.
- 3:03Speaker 1: What exactly is inflation? All I know is that my
- 3:06Speaker 1: gas is high, eggs is six dollars. They used to
- 3:09Speaker 1: be cheaper than that. I've shopped with coupons now and
- 3:12Speaker 1: the coupons don't help value like they used to. And
- 3:15Speaker 1: then they come up they talk about, well, you know,
- 3:17Speaker 1: I think it's September. Of September, they said that inflation
- 3:21Speaker 1: was under control. We can drop the interest rate, but
- 3:24Speaker 1: to control interest we have to raise the interest rate.
- 3:27Speaker 1: Please explain to me Rashon McDonald and my audience. You're
- 3:31Speaker 1: the financial quarterback, Josh, what is going wrong? When I
- 3:35Speaker 1: hear interest rate going up to stop something inflation, but
- 3:39Speaker 1: my prices keep going up? How's that working well?
- 3:43Speaker 3: I think the inflation economists say is getting better, right,
- 3:49Speaker 3: But I don't know if we feel that it's getting
- 3:52Speaker 3: better because there was such a jolt of inflation for
- 3:58Speaker 3: the last four or five years due to COVID.
- 4:01Speaker 2: But first, let's talk about what inflation is. Inflation is.
- 4:06Speaker 3: There's so many definitions, but I'll go to Milton Friedman's
- 4:11Speaker 3: definition on inflation. If what is his definition on inflation?
- 4:18Speaker 3: I heard this back in the day, and I remember
- 4:22Speaker 3: inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon. Yes, what
- 4:30Speaker 3: the heck does that mean? And someone said, if velocity
- 4:34Speaker 3: is about well, I don't want to this. That sounds confusing,
- 4:37Speaker 3: but let me make it simple for you. Inflation is
- 4:41Speaker 3: when you go to the grocery store, okay, and you
- 4:44Speaker 3: get that bag of chips and there's half the amount
- 4:46Speaker 3: of chips that there was five years ago. Some people
- 4:49Speaker 3: call that shrink inflation. It's basically your dollar doesn't go
- 4:54Speaker 3: as far as it used to. A stamp was how
- 4:57Speaker 3: much twenty years ago versus today? A gallon of milk
- 5:01Speaker 3: was so much? And any time there is something in
- 5:07Speaker 3: plentiful supply.
- 5:10Speaker 1: I love your.
- 5:10Speaker 3: Questions because they get me to think, like, how do
- 5:12Speaker 3: I make this simple.
- 5:14Speaker 2: For the everyday American? Right, we're like in these bubbles
- 5:18Speaker 2: and you just hear it. You don't even know what.
- 5:19Speaker 3: It is, but I think it's too many dollars chasing
- 5:26Speaker 3: too few goods. So COVID stimulus, Democrats Republicans just giving
- 5:35Speaker 3: money away in COVID stimulus one and two. This is
- 5:39Speaker 3: both parties have caused us this problem in an effort
- 5:44Speaker 3: to save us from COVID or whatever. So what happened
- 5:47Speaker 3: is the government printed all this money. Right, we all
- 5:51Speaker 3: got our stimmy checks.
- 5:52Speaker 2: I don't know if I got to people got PPP.
- 5:55Speaker 3: If they're business owners, and they said, wow, I have
- 5:59Speaker 3: all this money. I'm gonna buy new TV. I'm gonna
- 6:02Speaker 3: buy a new car. And we felt rich for like
- 6:06Speaker 3: a day, and now we feel poor because that's what
- 6:10Speaker 3: inflation does. The Roman Empire cave due to this. It's
- 6:14Speaker 3: called bread and circuses because the natives are getting restless, right,
- 6:20Speaker 3: they don't want us to riot during COVID. So what
- 6:23Speaker 3: they do, here's a check, here's a check for the lockdowns,
- 6:26Speaker 3: for your trouble. And by the way, this stuff will
- 6:28Speaker 3: happen more and more if people on both sides really
- 6:31Speaker 3: need to wake up to this, because this is how
- 6:34Speaker 3: the government will control us, manipulate us in the future,
- 6:37Speaker 3: and it will how it's how.
- 6:39Speaker 2: Come everybody feels poor even though they make more than
- 6:41Speaker 2: they made five years ago. And if they don't make.
- 6:44Speaker 3: More then it's even worse, right because people always say, oh, well.
- 6:48Speaker 2: The answer is I remember Bernie Sanders would say, what
- 6:50Speaker 2: is he say we.
- 6:51Speaker 3: Want fifteen dollars minimum wage, that'll save everybody. Now we
- 6:55Speaker 3: say we want twenty dollars minimum wages. But what's gonna
- 6:58Speaker 3: happen or the tariffs are any of these things? Don't
- 7:02Speaker 3: be fool people. This just gets passed off.
- 7:06Speaker 2: To the consumer. The people.
- 7:09Speaker 3: You know you worked for IBM pre many years, six years.
- 7:13Speaker 3: They're a smart company. If their cost goes up, what's
- 7:16Speaker 3: gonna happen? They're gonna pass that on to their customers.
- 7:19Speaker 1: Yes, you will.
- 7:20Speaker 3: Coachs are gonna do the same thing. Hershey's gonna do
- 7:23Speaker 3: the same thing. Chlorax is gonna do the same thing,
- 7:26Speaker 3: not because they're greedy, because they have to. Their costs
- 7:30Speaker 3: of goods and services go up. So inflation is I
- 7:35Speaker 3: like that. Actually, definition is always an ever monetary phenomenon.
- 7:38Speaker 3: But it's really too much dollars chasing too few goods,
- 7:42Speaker 3: and any time you have a lot of something in circulation,
- 7:46Speaker 3: it makes it worth less. Remember the beanie baby craze.
- 7:50Speaker 3: My months she was into collecting beanie babies. We grew
- 7:55Speaker 3: up poor, but for some reason, my mother thought the
- 7:58Speaker 3: beanie babies were gonna get her out of poverty, right,
- 8:02Speaker 3: so she bought beanie babies.
- 8:05Speaker 2: She'ld have bought stock, but for.
- 8:06Speaker 3: Some reason she bought beanie babies, thinking that that would
- 8:12Speaker 3: save her from poverty. So she would save up what
- 8:16Speaker 3: she could and she'd buy beanie baby, and then she'd
- 8:19Speaker 3: buy another one.
- 8:21Speaker 2: And then she passed.
- 8:22Speaker 3: Away a few years ago, And I remember I had
- 8:24Speaker 3: all these buckets of beanie babies and I kept them
- 8:27Speaker 3: just because it reminds me of that story of my
- 8:29Speaker 3: mother's love trying to do something to get her family ahead.
- 8:33Speaker 3: But why did the beanie baby craze not get successful?
- 8:36Speaker 3: Because they started making too much of me it's the
- 8:39Speaker 3: same thing with the dollar.
- 8:40Speaker 1: It's a great movie. I saw why that happened. It
- 8:44Speaker 1: was greed and too many beanie babies. It made it.
- 8:47Speaker 1: It wasn't rare anymore. And that's why the system fails itself.
- 8:52Speaker 1: But you know we I'm know. I come from the
- 8:57Speaker 1: inner city. You know, six sisters, two brothers, two bedroom,
- 9:00Speaker 1: shotgun house, so similar to your upbringing. Didn't have nothing.
- 9:04Speaker 1: And as you grow older, you know, you hold on
- 9:06Speaker 1: to values and savings accounts. You know, you put your
- 9:11Speaker 1: money in savings, and you hear the word c D,
- 9:13Speaker 1: put your money into CD. But I'm gonna tell you something.
- 9:16Speaker 1: It wasn't until I got older I heard the word
- 9:19Speaker 1: compound interests. And when I started really understanding compound interests,
- 9:25Speaker 1: and I want you to explain it, because you're the expert.
- 9:28Speaker 1: Why isn't that pushed out more as a value component.
- 9:32Speaker 1: I hear stock, I hear stock stocks, socks, stocks stocks,
- 9:35Speaker 1: but I never hear compound interests as a value way
- 9:40Speaker 1: to secure your savings for long term opportunities. The floor
- 9:43Speaker 1: is your.
- 9:44Speaker 3: That's beautiful, Einstein said. The miracle of compounding.
- 9:49Speaker 2: It is attributed to eins. Some people don't know if
- 9:51Speaker 2: he really said it.
- 9:52Speaker 3: Compounding is the eighth wonder of the world. But what
- 9:56Speaker 3: is compound interest? It's basically a doubling every so many years, right,
- 10:04Speaker 3: And there's something called the miracle of compound interest. And
- 10:06Speaker 3: then there's something called the rule of seventy two, which
- 10:09Speaker 3: if you have a dollar and you earn seven percent
- 10:14Speaker 3: a year, you take seventy two you divide it by seven.
- 10:19Speaker 3: It takes about ten years for a dollar to double
- 10:24Speaker 3: at seven percent interest. If you earn ten percent a year,
- 10:31Speaker 3: it takes a dollar about seven years to double because
- 10:35Speaker 3: seven goes into seventy two about ten times. Compound interest
- 10:41Speaker 3: is very simple.
- 10:43Speaker 2: But why do we not get taught it?
- 10:45Speaker 3: I think it's because banks and other wealthy people don't
- 10:49Speaker 3: want you.
- 10:50Speaker 2: To know about it. You remember that guy Kevin Trudeau.
- 10:52Speaker 3: You know natural cures. They don't want you to know
- 10:55Speaker 3: about it. I don't know if it's conspiratorial.
- 10:59Speaker 1: But saying that, I'm not saying this is Josh. I'm
- 11:01Speaker 1: not using the word, and I.
- 11:02Speaker 2: Know there might be an element where it is.
- 11:06Speaker 1: Right.
- 11:06Speaker 4: Please don't go anywhere. We'll be right back with more
- 11:10Speaker 4: money making conversations Masterclass. Welcome back to the Money Making
- 11:19Speaker 4: Conversations Masterclass hosted by Rashaan McDonald.
- 11:24Speaker 1: Because I know about stocks. I hear about stocks. It's
- 11:27Speaker 1: very complicated, you know. But if you tell me, Rashan,
- 11:30Speaker 1: you know, save five hundred dollars a month or whatever. Okay,
- 11:34Speaker 1: that's and you know the end of the year, you
- 11:36Speaker 1: got six thousand dollars. Okay, that goes in you. But
- 11:40Speaker 1: every time you put in the bank is compounding the
- 11:42Speaker 1: interesting interest interests, and you're doubling. You're doubling your doub
- 11:45Speaker 1: and then you just just don't mess with it. Just
- 11:47Speaker 1: keep saving and just keep saving and guess what, you
- 11:51Speaker 1: will reap the benefits of a tremendous financial opportunity. But
- 11:57Speaker 1: I never hear that. I hear invest in stocks. When
- 12:00Speaker 1: I sit down with my financial advisor, he went, do
- 12:03Speaker 1: you want to be aggressive? Conservative? Or you know what
- 12:07Speaker 1: you want to you know, just stand pad, Oh you
- 12:09Speaker 1: want to do a mix. That's what I hear. And
- 12:11Speaker 1: I'm sure that's a standard.
- 12:12Speaker 3: No, you need a new financial advisor number one, okay,
- 12:18Speaker 3: And we're.
- 12:18Speaker 1: Going to talk about that because people, what is a
- 12:21Speaker 1: good financial advisor? Did Josh?
- 12:23Speaker 2: What is I think the good financial advisor? Number one?
- 12:26Speaker 2: Educates their clients on the value of compounding.
- 12:29Speaker 3: That that is exactly why you should have a financial advisor, because.
- 12:33Speaker 2: The goal in life, yes, sir, is.
- 12:36Speaker 3: Then to not interrupt that compounding. People want to interrupt
- 12:41Speaker 3: their compounding when there is a new political regime. People
- 12:46Speaker 3: want to interrupt their compounding due to whatever their kids
- 12:51Speaker 3: go to college. People want to interrupt their compounding to
- 12:53Speaker 3: buy a new car. People want to interrupt their compounding
- 12:57Speaker 3: to buy a bigger house.
- 12:59Speaker 2: Yes, and the number one.
- 13:01Speaker 3: Way you get wealthy is compound interest and not interrupting.
- 13:07Speaker 2: So I would argue that the number one reason.
- 13:10Speaker 3: But you're right, the financial industry has gone into do
- 13:13Speaker 3: you want to be a conservative?
- 13:15Speaker 2: Moderate? Aggressive? You're You're right on, come.
- 13:17Speaker 1: On, Josh, you know you know that's typical they sit
- 13:20Speaker 1: down with that little That is true.
- 13:21Speaker 2: We do it too.
- 13:23Speaker 3: But that's only as like a c ya right, right,
- 13:27Speaker 3: it's not. But but your number one job as an advisor,
- 13:32Speaker 3: the number one people say, what is the number one
- 13:33Speaker 3: thing I look at in financial advisor? Do they educate
- 13:36Speaker 3: you on key concepts that you need to know about?
- 13:38Speaker 3: Because here's the thing you said, Well, why your questions
- 13:43Speaker 3: are really good because you could have a whole show
- 13:46Speaker 3: on one question that you give. But why part of
- 13:50Speaker 3: me thinks it's a conspiracy. I don't know why.
- 13:53Speaker 2: Right part of me thinks.
- 13:55Speaker 3: It's because that's how banks make money, not that banks
- 13:59Speaker 3: surrey evil and that can be a trope sometimes.
- 14:02Speaker 2: I'm not saying that. I'm just saying what does a
- 14:07Speaker 2: bank do?
- 14:08Speaker 1: Right?
- 14:09Speaker 2: I want my clients to think like they are the bank.
- 14:13Speaker 1: And I would tell you this, js. I will tell
- 14:15Speaker 1: you this, Josh. I've had at least six different financial
- 14:20Speaker 1: advisors sit in front of me. I can remember when
- 14:22Speaker 1: I was thirty and I was invested in I got
- 14:26Speaker 1: that conservative, aggressive, moderate speech. You know, Okay, I want
- 14:30Speaker 1: to be a little aggressive. I'm young. I'm young, but
- 14:33Speaker 1: nobody told me. Nobody drill listened to my head, Josh, Rashank,
- 14:37Speaker 1: this is me. Listen to meat. Just compound interest. Don't
- 14:42Speaker 1: touch it. I mean, I mean with their fistballed up.
- 14:46Speaker 1: I know, Cya, just like you said. But Rashan, believe me,
- 14:49Speaker 1: do not touch this money over here. This is your
- 14:53Speaker 1: compound interest money. If somebody would have told me this
- 14:56Speaker 1: is your compound interest money, this is your stock money.
- 14:59Speaker 1: If you just said that when you're talking about the
- 15:01Speaker 1: word conservative or you want to be moderate with your money.
- 15:06Speaker 1: That word never came out, because I'm considering that's the
- 15:09Speaker 1: conservative approach to investment. Is the compound interest that never
- 15:14Speaker 1: came up, and that annoys the heck out of me.
- 15:17Speaker 1: And when I come to the financial quarterback, I'm not
- 15:19Speaker 1: seeking salvation because the hell Mary passed that you could
- 15:23Speaker 1: probably throw to me is passed.
- 15:26Speaker 2: But you got us compounding.
- 15:28Speaker 3: If you're listening today, you're watching today and you and
- 15:32Speaker 3: you kind of think that you're too late, too old,
- 15:35Speaker 3: you're fifty or sixty or seventy, just start the compound
- 15:40Speaker 3: interest cycle.
- 15:43Speaker 2: It's a great listen.
- 15:44Speaker 1: Thank you. Now, I gotta go here, brother, at that
- 15:47Speaker 1: time of the year. Health insurance, okay, you know, I
- 15:50Speaker 1: just got to notice the other day, h manner. You know,
- 15:54Speaker 1: they disenrolling me. They're not carrying my lane of insurance.
- 16:00Speaker 1: And I gotta find I gotta scramble to find somebody.
- 16:03Speaker 1: I got employees. I gotta get a new plan for
- 16:05Speaker 1: my employee. What is going on in the financial community
- 16:09Speaker 1: with health insurance, Josh.
- 16:11Speaker 3: Well, A lot of the government mandates are having an
- 16:16Speaker 3: unintended consequence of health insurance companies aren't making money anymore
- 16:22Speaker 3: because they have to have everybody in the system with
- 16:25Speaker 3: pre existing conditions, so a lot of people are getting out.
- 16:28Speaker 2: See, we have a fundamental problem in America.
- 16:30Speaker 3: We everybody wants health care, but they don't want to
- 16:34Speaker 3: pay for it, right, So what's happening is I think
- 16:37Speaker 3: we need a fundamental restructuring of health care in America.
- 16:42Speaker 3: I don't I didn't hear anybody talk about. And we
- 16:45Speaker 3: just had an election, and the number one problem is
- 16:48Speaker 3: costs are going up, I know, and nobody's talking about,
- 16:52Speaker 3: well how do we contain costs? I have a plan,
- 16:55Speaker 3: but I'm not an elected dog catchers, so I don't know. Well,
- 17:00Speaker 3: nobody would listen to me.
- 17:01Speaker 1: But well, please, I got my ear open, at least
- 17:07Speaker 1: one ear open. What will be an option you visionary?
- 17:13Speaker 1: Because right now we have a problem.
- 17:14Speaker 3: I think the only way they're going to do it
- 17:16Speaker 3: is to let eighty percent of the healthcare insurance company
- 17:22Speaker 3: companies do whatever they want.
- 17:23Speaker 2: They get to discriminate on the basis of health.
- 17:26Speaker 3: People forget this insurance is by its very nature discriminatory,
- 17:30Speaker 3: meaning you have an insurance company saying we don't want
- 17:34Speaker 3: this risk because we believe you're going to get heart attack,
- 17:36Speaker 3: cancer stroke.
- 17:37Speaker 2: We do want this risk because you're a healthy person.
- 17:41Speaker 3: And one of the things that Obamacare had originally that
- 17:46Speaker 3: was actually a Republican idea, was that everybody had to
- 17:50Speaker 3: buy health insurance, whether you were young or old, and
- 17:54Speaker 3: they would have healthy people in the pool.
- 17:57Speaker 2: But they stopped that for some reason.
- 18:00Speaker 3: So if we're gonna have this kind of mix and
- 18:03Speaker 3: match plan, I think we need to have two options.
- 18:06Speaker 3: One is a health insurance company led plan where they
- 18:08Speaker 3: get to kick anybody off that they want to. What
- 18:11Speaker 3: is that going to do. That's going to cause the
- 18:13Speaker 3: costs to go down because they're going to only ensure
- 18:16Speaker 3: healthy people. Now what about the unhealthy people? Then they
- 18:19Speaker 3: would get a government kind of like an expanded Medicaid
- 18:23Speaker 3: m H.
- 18:24Speaker 2: And then go and then.
- 18:26Speaker 3: Doctors, because this is key because we have this in
- 18:28Speaker 3: New Jersey. We have NJ Family Care. No good doctor
- 18:31Speaker 3: wants to take NJ Family Care, which is like Medicaid,
- 18:33Speaker 3: they don't call it medicaid anymore. So in my plan,
- 18:38Speaker 3: all doctors would get they would have to take eighty
- 18:40Speaker 3: percent healthy people, twenty percent poor and indigent and unhealthy,
- 18:45Speaker 3: and they get a rite off for the ten or
- 18:47Speaker 3: twenty percent that they take that can't afford them.
- 18:51Speaker 2: And I don't know anybody would be against that planet.
- 18:53Speaker 3: It helps, it helps the poor, it helps those who
- 18:57Speaker 3: are sick, and it helps insurance come keep costs lower
- 19:01Speaker 3: because then they get to discriminate, which is what an
- 19:03Speaker 3: insurance company does.
- 19:05Speaker 1: You know, he just brought up the Obama character.
- 19:07Speaker 3: And I don't mean racial discrimination. I mean discerning of
- 19:12Speaker 3: risks people. Here's the thing, if you were out of
- 19:16Speaker 3: insurance company, you'd only want to ensure healthy people.
- 19:20Speaker 1: Well, you're in the money making business, and so you
- 19:22Speaker 1: have to look at your bottom line and the bottom line.
- 19:24Speaker 1: I'm getting kicked out because I'm not making any I'm
- 19:28Speaker 1: hurting their bottom line, and so somewhere along the line
- 19:32Speaker 1: there has to be a decision made on how you
- 19:33Speaker 1: can make money and still ensure people who they deem
- 19:36Speaker 1: healthy and won't be that's by the way. I remember
- 19:40Speaker 1: when I was young, I had Triple I still have
- 19:42Speaker 1: Triple A, and I had a nineteen seventy three cutlass,
- 19:47Speaker 1: and every three months I had to call them and
- 19:49Speaker 1: tell them, come charge my battery, Come charge my battery.
- 19:53Speaker 1: Finally I got a letter from Triple A. They said,
- 19:55Speaker 1: excuse me, either you need to buy a new car,
- 19:59Speaker 1: or we can't come and charge your batteries no more,
- 20:03Speaker 1: because you had exceeded, in their mind, the bottom line,
- 20:07Speaker 1: the model that they had put in place. And so
- 20:10Speaker 1: when I hear that, people need to understand that there's
- 20:13Speaker 1: always a cut off poem where they said, you know
- 20:16Speaker 1: some we like to keep your money because what you
- 20:20Speaker 1: heard in our bottom line. And so when people use
- 20:22Speaker 1: the word discriminatory, they use the word. In the end,
- 20:26Speaker 1: we are already business of making money. We want people
- 20:29Speaker 1: to make money so we can get services. If we
- 20:31Speaker 1: don't get those services, then either they may file bankruptcy
- 20:35Speaker 1: or they close. If they close, we don't get their
- 20:37Speaker 1: services anyway, and you won't have their services. You know,
- 20:39Speaker 1: would anybody have their services, which means that it becomes
- 20:42Speaker 1: a monopoly. Because if we don't have competition and independent
- 20:46Speaker 1: voices out there and it shrinks, then we've created a
- 20:49Speaker 1: bigger problem. And I look at these things when I
- 20:52Speaker 1: talk to you, Josh, and you know, I'm so fortunate
- 20:55Speaker 1: to be able to have a guy with your financial
- 20:57Speaker 1: mindset who's been there, done that. Like I said, I'm
- 21:00Speaker 1: just immediate. I'm just a voice that that comes on
- 21:03Speaker 1: this show and brings experts like you to be able
- 21:05Speaker 1: to deliver information that people can research. Now, the Financial Quarterback,

- 21:27Speaker 1: appreciate you coming on Money Making Conversation master Class. You know,
- 21:30Speaker 1: I don't know if you got me mad, but you
- 21:32Speaker 1: got me in light. You hear, I'm gonna tell you something.
- 21:34Speaker 1: You allowed me to vent Josh. You know, you allowed
- 21:36Speaker 1: me to go back thirty years, and I'm gonna say
- 21:39Speaker 1: that I made mistakes because some people say, hey, you're
- 21:41Speaker 1: doing pretty good. But I know I cut it down
- 21:43Speaker 1: a little bit better. If I just held old, it
- 21:46Speaker 1: just compound interests. But I didn't. Just like I said,
- 21:50Speaker 1: I got out of the boat. I sold the stock,
- 21:53Speaker 1: I sold home Depot, I sold Apple, I sow.
- 21:58Speaker 2: Entail.
- 21:58Speaker 1: I sold all those stocks because guess what, I just
- 22:01Speaker 1: stick to the plan and the bottom line. When you're
- 22:03Speaker 1: talking to the Financial Quarterback, It's all about a plan, correct.
- 22:06Speaker 2: Exactly and sticking to the plan.
