Speaker 1: Dexter BJK. How do you doing to say?
1:01
Speaker 2: I'm excited to be here? Man? Finally were we able
1:04
Speaker 2: to get this thing together?
1:06
Speaker 1: Well? We find up because we talked about money and
1:09
Speaker 1: I said some really prominent things. Renown Realty Inksperred.
1:16
Speaker 2: Where you're based at Pastor Jenkins. I am at Boston, Massachusetts,
1:20
Speaker 2: born and raised there. No born and raised in New Avon, Connecticut,
1:23
Speaker 2: and got to Boston on a basketball scholarship at Northeastern University,
1:30
Speaker 2: and you ended up getting married and staying at a place.
1:32
Speaker 2: So I've been here. I came, I hit Boston in
1:36
Speaker 2: nineteen eighty seven and have been stuck here ever since.
1:39
Speaker 1: We'ren't a good stuck law. Championships have been through that
1:42
Speaker 1: town since eighty seven.
1:43
Speaker 2: That was including unfortunately I'm a knicked fan stuck in Boughton.
1:49
Speaker 1: Well, we gotta go back to seventy.
1:50
Speaker 2: Two, fifty seventy three that we wanted three. So it's
1:55
Speaker 2: been a while.
1:56
Speaker 1: Yeah, thank you for the correction that I represent Steven A.
1:59
Speaker 1: Smith so revised me every year. Yes, the lack of
2:04
Speaker 1: championships by the New York Knicks. Now, when we talk
2:08
Speaker 1: about what you do, what do you do for a living.
2:12
Speaker 2: I'm I'm I'm a full time pastor, but then I
2:16
Speaker 2: also run a financial literacy company, and then I also
2:20
Speaker 2: run a real estate investment company. So you know, I
2:24
Speaker 2: tell people I really flowed the intersection of faith, finance
2:29
Speaker 2: and business, and I've done that. Man probably for the
2:32
Speaker 2: last three decades of doing that, you know. So that's
2:36
Speaker 2: that's that's who I am.
2:38
Speaker 1: Well, you know, it's really important to I bring that
2:39
Speaker 1: up to try to establish your brand, your voice, your
2:43
Speaker 1: level of expert. Now we always know that they say that,
2:46
Speaker 1: you know, you can't grow new land, you know, so
2:49
Speaker 1: when you buy land, it's one of the top investments.
2:53
Speaker 1: Talk about the whole real estate tone that people keep
2:58
Speaker 1: throwing out there about five don't rent by don't rent, Right,
3:02
Speaker 1: it's the equity that you're trying to build in your
3:05
Speaker 1: family and the foundation of generational wealth. Talk to us, right.
3:08
Speaker 2: But I think Rashaan, that real estate is what I
3:12
Speaker 2: call the lowest hanging fruit on the wealth creation tree,
3:15
Speaker 2: Meaning there was a treat ourself wealth creation, and a
3:19
Speaker 2: person wanted to learn how to build wealth, it would
3:22
Speaker 2: probably be the easiest way to do that until you
3:25
Speaker 2: open the statement. More than that, the fact that we're
3:28
Speaker 2: not building any more anymore, land is not being made.
3:31
Speaker 2: In fact, God not making any more of that. And
3:33
Speaker 2: so I just think that one of the one of
3:36
Speaker 2: the simplest ways for individuals to get involved and build
3:40
Speaker 2: well is kill real estate. And historically that has been
3:43
Speaker 2: the case. You know, so either people have gathered their
3:46
Speaker 2: wealth through real estate or they've gotten wealth they've invested
3:50
Speaker 2: in it. And so it's just it's just a phenomenal
3:53
Speaker 2: way for people to and particular people who look like us,
3:55
Speaker 2: you know. And when I talk with people, I said, look,
3:57
Speaker 2: our people came here to work their land, now for
4:00
Speaker 2: us to own.
4:00
Speaker 1: It, right, A beautiful quote. Now, when I got your
4:04
Speaker 1: series of questions Pastor Jenkins, real estate expert, you know,
4:08
Speaker 1: found their creator of their re wealth creation summer, the
4:12
Speaker 1: question said, how could a person in their fifties get
4:16
Speaker 1: wealth quickly?
4:17
Speaker 2: Quickly?
4:18
Speaker 1: Come out about quickly?
4:19
Speaker 2: Now, it was that, well, well, I'm sure a lot
4:24
Speaker 2: of your people are over fifty like me, cup I
4:27
Speaker 2: just turned fifty six a couple of weeks ago, and
4:29
Speaker 2: so I got a lot of people that what you know,
4:31
Speaker 2: because what we what people have fifty think is that
4:35
Speaker 2: in many respect that they should be uh sort of
4:39
Speaker 2: kicking back a little bit. And I'm saying you should
4:41
Speaker 2: be ramping up in your fifties and your sixty because
4:43
Speaker 2: you you have a you have a life full of
4:47
Speaker 2: knowledge that you know you can manufacture into whether it's
4:51
Speaker 2: some course or some sort of teaching or whatever else.
4:53
Speaker 2: So I think, really, what you got to do in
4:55
Speaker 2: your fifties is do an assessment of where you are,
4:58
Speaker 2: where you want to go, and more portly with sha
5:01
Speaker 2: what you have done, and then find a way to
5:03
Speaker 2: monetize that. And so, you know, I think you know
5:07
Speaker 2: because my congregation, I have a number of people who
5:10
Speaker 2: are in their fifties and sixties, and I'm always on
5:12
Speaker 2: them and like, man, it's not time for you to
5:13
Speaker 2: sit back on the porch. It's your time for not
5:16
Speaker 2: to retire, but to refire, meaning get excited about something
5:19
Speaker 2: else that you can bring to the marketplace. And as
5:22
Speaker 2: you do that, you know you can you can make
5:24
Speaker 2: some money doing that and build some work for yourself.
5:27
Speaker 1: But you know, let's talk about the falsehoods of retirement,
5:30
Speaker 1: especially when they come to the government and social Security.
5:33
Speaker 1: A lot of people believe there's a check waiting on
5:36
Speaker 1: them that the government will provide to them through Social Security, right,
5:41
Speaker 1: will take care of everything. How do you push past
5:44
Speaker 1: that basic lie?
5:46
Speaker 2: Right? Well, I just do the simple math. I live
5:50
Speaker 2: in Massachusetts, in Boston. I don't know where you are,
5:52
Speaker 2: but I'm in Boston. I think the average Social Security
5:57
Speaker 2: check is around fourteen hundred dollars a month. Right, you
6:01
Speaker 2: can't live nowhere in Boston for fourteen hundred dolls month
6:04
Speaker 2: in America, you know, you can't. You can't live no
6:08
Speaker 2: place in you know, most of most of America for
6:11
Speaker 2: fourteen hundred dollars a month. And so once you will
6:13
Speaker 2: to begin to get people to see, hey, you know
6:15
Speaker 2: what Social Security really was designed for is a really
6:19
Speaker 2: outdated model of income meeting that there was X amount
6:23
Speaker 2: of people who would provide for folks who are in
6:26
Speaker 2: retirement and that, and it's just our dated model. So
6:29
Speaker 2: really what we got to do is this, We've got
6:31
Speaker 2: to shift our dependency off of other entities and put
6:33
Speaker 2: it on ourselves, recognizing that I'm I'm the assets as
6:38
Speaker 2: as you're talking about just being a master class where
6:40
Speaker 2: where we're trying to get out the fact that listen,
6:43
Speaker 2: it's not the real estate, it's not the stock, it's
6:45
Speaker 2: not the crypto, it's you. And if you learn how
6:48
Speaker 2: to really mind what God has placed on the inside
6:51
Speaker 2: of you and learn how to monetize it, you know
6:54
Speaker 2: you won't have to worry about sociecurity because you'll be good.
6:57
Speaker 1: Yeah, So let's listen up everybody who's watching it a
7:00
Speaker 1: listening to this episode of Money Making Conversations Master Class.
7:03
Speaker 1: You've heard pastors then can say, fourteen hundred dollars is
7:08
Speaker 1: the average check for Social Security retirement. That's if you
7:11
Speaker 1: take it in sixty five. If you take it earlier
7:14
Speaker 1: than that is smaller. So you can still get there.
7:19
Speaker 1: You can still have a plan to get there. That's
7:21
Speaker 1: what they show us about. That's why we're talking to
7:23
Speaker 1: him about plans to make you have a comfortable life
7:27
Speaker 1: when you quote unquote retire. But I like what you said,
7:30
Speaker 1: Pastor Jacob, it's not time to retire, it's time to refire.
7:35
Speaker 1: So what plan of action do you put in place
7:37
Speaker 1: for people who are basically maybe even giving up?
7:41
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I think you have to start there. All
7:45
Speaker 2: of this and you know this, and that's why you're
7:47
Speaker 2: doing these math class It's about mindset, and I think
7:50
Speaker 2: a lot of times we're dealing with people who have
7:56
Speaker 2: to have to deal with what I call the inner
7:59
Speaker 2: game of wealth and the in the game of what
8:01
Speaker 2: it really deals with your beliefs around money, how you
8:05
Speaker 2: think about it, how you feel about it, you know,
8:07
Speaker 2: and an ununfortunate a lot of things that we learned
8:09
Speaker 2: and maybe and in churches or maybe a mama's house
8:12
Speaker 2: or whatever is wrong orbout money and so you got
8:15
Speaker 2: to get people to renew their my injury wire they're
8:17
Speaker 2: thinking around finances. Then we can begin to start talking
8:21
Speaker 2: about Okay, what vehicle are you going to use? So okay,
8:24
Speaker 2: now my mind is being renewed around money, right, but
8:27
Speaker 2: then I need to find a vehicle. So is it entrepreneurship,
8:30
Speaker 2: is it real estate? It has to be something you know.
8:35
Speaker 2: And so really getting people to really really rishond and
8:38
Speaker 2: tap into this thing called leverage, you have to create
8:40
Speaker 2: some sort of leverage going forward. And so that's what
8:44
Speaker 2: we talk about most of the done.
8:46
Speaker 1: That's important to say because I'm working through these steps
8:49
Speaker 1: and need people to stay engaged with this interview. By
8:52
Speaker 1: saying we started out of real estate stuff we passed
8:56
Speaker 1: by on the regular basis, houses, faking LODs, places you
9:00
Speaker 1: might stay. How does one start the real estate gain
9:05
Speaker 1: not that much money?
9:06
Speaker 2: Right? Well, it all starts with education and to two things.
9:09
Speaker 2: When I'm talking to people about raising their income level
9:14
Speaker 2: making more money, there are two things they gotta do.
9:16
Speaker 2: They gotta raise their awareness of Number one, what they're
9:20
Speaker 2: able to do. And then number two, they really probably
9:22
Speaker 2: won't have to develop a new skill of some sort.
9:25
Speaker 2: So that ties into educating yourself. And so if you're
9:29
Speaker 2: interested in real estate, what I begin to do is
9:32
Speaker 2: have people. Man, you can go to YouTube and start
9:34
Speaker 2: looking at that stuff you can get on podcasts, and
9:36
Speaker 2: so just begin to your class, you know, just begin
9:40
Speaker 2: to get your minds. I keep coming back to this
9:44
Speaker 2: word mindset. It has to go before anything. We talk
9:48
Speaker 2: about first getting my mind right. I mean, even talking
9:51
Speaker 2: about what you and I caking about. People don't want
9:53
Speaker 2: to talk about money. They're very uncomfortable about even having
9:56
Speaker 2: conversations about money, you know what I mean. So I
10:01
Speaker 2: start there, and then now we begin to talk about, Okay,
10:04
Speaker 2: what's my education? So am I going to start reading books,
10:09
Speaker 2: going to seven dollars, doing those type of things which
10:10
Speaker 2: you really need to do. And then now you begin
10:13
Speaker 2: to pick a track. So okay, back to real estate.
10:15
Speaker 2: So I now begin to say, okay, am I a
10:17
Speaker 2: real estate investor who wants to maybe fix and flip
10:20
Speaker 2: like I see on TV? Or do I want to
10:22
Speaker 2: buy and hold? Or do I want a wholesale or
10:25
Speaker 2: do I want to be do a little bit of everything.
10:28
Speaker 2: And so once once you begin to get the education
10:31
Speaker 2: right and then really get a track as to what
10:33
Speaker 2: really fits your personality because it's not a one size
10:36
Speaker 2: fits all, right, then you go from there.
10:38
Speaker 1: It was really important as we talk about real estate,
10:41
Speaker 1: we talk about financial that you created the we wealth
10:45
Speaker 1: and right could the word read is in front of wealth?
10:49
Speaker 1: Why is there?
10:50
Speaker 2: Well, well it's the r really is is the real
10:52
Speaker 2: Estate Wealth Creation Summit. And then my my publisher, she
10:57
Speaker 2: p Period. You know, she's put the ra a man
10:59
Speaker 2: just to make it sure, but we really put that
11:02
Speaker 2: summer together for the last we've done it the last
11:04
Speaker 2: two years. And where you doing at We do it
11:08
Speaker 2: in Boston. We've do it in Boston. So last the
11:10
Speaker 2: first year we had about thirty some of our people.
11:12
Speaker 2: Last year we had about sixty. And then we had
11:14
Speaker 2: a virtual component toul so that people from Detroit in
11:17
Speaker 2: different areas watching it. But it really was to bring
11:20
Speaker 2: people together. Rashana talk about one thing, how do we
11:23
Speaker 2: use real estate as a wealth creation tool? That's it,
11:27
Speaker 2: And so the whole day centered around that thought process
11:31
Speaker 2: and then exposing people to the different ways to do
11:34
Speaker 2: you know, so some do it through fixing and flipping.
11:37
Speaker 2: Some do it through buy and hole, some do it
11:40
Speaker 2: through they don't want to have nothing to do with
11:41
Speaker 2: fixing them toys. But what they'll do, they'll they have
11:43
Speaker 2: money to invest it. So we brought all that together
11:47
Speaker 2: in order to have people to do that and then
11:49
Speaker 2: to give them some coaching after that, because you know,
11:52
Speaker 2: it's all about it's almost like sometimes people go to
11:55
Speaker 2: the either a church or even get really excited, but
11:57
Speaker 2: then they don't have anyone to hold their hand the
12:00
Speaker 2: it started. And so you know, we put together some
12:02
Speaker 2: program helping to do that.
12:04
Speaker 1: How can we get in touch.
12:05
Speaker 2: With you if you go to Dexterbijenkins dot com. Uh,
12:10
Speaker 2: and then you know, uh, actually what they do. First
12:13
Speaker 2: of all they'll do is they'll get a copy of
12:16
Speaker 2: what we talked about the ship method, so either the
12:19
Speaker 2: head or of the foot or there's a green button
12:21
Speaker 2: if they smashed that, uh, that will give them my
12:24
Speaker 2: e book. And then also they they'll all the information
12:27
Speaker 2: will be right there.
12:28
Speaker 1: Now the ship method. You brought it up, you know,
12:30
Speaker 1: kind of jumped to guy right past you on Fly.
12:34
Speaker 2: We brought it up there.
12:36
Speaker 1: On Fly we talked were not he's gonna bring a
12:38
Speaker 1: on flying conversation into the interview. We talked about it earlier,
12:42
Speaker 1: No we did not.
12:43
Speaker 2: What it is the ship method, sir, Yeah, yeah, well,
12:46
Speaker 2: well the ship method is uh, you know, I'm now
12:50
Speaker 2: you guys do a pastor, but I'm a firm believer
12:52
Speaker 2: that the Bible is more than just a religious book.
12:55
Speaker 2: It's a success man. So if you look at the
12:58
Speaker 2: Book of Proverbs, and the book will eclesiastics, it has
13:02
Speaker 2: information in there that deals with living, including money from
13:06
Speaker 2: the wealthiers man who have lived called King Salamon. So
13:09
Speaker 2: as I've read through the Proverbs, because what I do
13:11
Speaker 2: is I recommend everybody read at least one chapter in
13:14
Speaker 2: the Book of Proverbs every day, so just thirty one chapters.
13:17
Speaker 2: If you read one chapter a day, you'd be through
13:19
Speaker 2: the Book of Proverbs throughout and you know, throughout the month.
13:22
Speaker 2: And so as I did that, as I've done that
13:24
Speaker 2: with Sean prow for the last twenty plus years. And
13:27
Speaker 2: so as I've done that, you I begin to look
13:30
Speaker 2: at these three themes that Solomon talked about when it
13:33
Speaker 2: came to when it comes to building wealth. Number one
13:35
Speaker 2: is stewardship, say jip So, meaning if a person is
13:40
Speaker 2: able to stewart their money, well, they'll do well financially.
13:44
Speaker 2: So stewart you mean. But stewardship is simply you give
13:46
Speaker 2: you your money, direction, tell me what to do. That's
13:48
Speaker 2: what stewardship is.
13:49
Speaker 1: Right.
13:50
Speaker 2: Secondly, it's ownership, meaning do you own the right thing?
13:54
Speaker 2: Now all of us own something, but is it the
13:56
Speaker 2: right things? And so really getting people to all the
13:59
Speaker 2: things that produce two things with sean cash flow and
14:06
Speaker 2: appreciation value. So if I can begin to accumulate those
14:09
Speaker 2: things that either appreciate and value and produce cash flow,
14:13
Speaker 2: I'm owning the right things. And then the last one
14:16
Speaker 2: is entrepreneurship. You know, so South a lot about owning
14:20
Speaker 2: your own business. Now. I don't know if entrepreneurship is
14:23
Speaker 2: for everybody, but I do believe the first two of everybody.
14:27
Speaker 2: You got to learn how to stooge your money right,
14:28
Speaker 2: tell it what to do, give it directions, don't it'll
14:32
Speaker 2: it got a mile of his own. And then I've
14:34
Speaker 2: got to own the right things. Our people, we are,
14:38
Speaker 2: we are phenomenal consumers.
14:42
Speaker 3: Please don't go anywhere. We'll be right back with more
14:45
Speaker 3: money making conversations, masterclass. Welcome back to the money Making
14:55
Speaker 3: Conversations Masterclass hosted by Rashaan McDonald. Money Making Conversations Masterclass
15:01
Speaker 3: continues online at Moneymakingconversations dot com and follow money Making
15:06
Speaker 3: Conversations Masterclass on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.
15:10
Speaker 1: Now when we talk about all this and start breaking
15:12
Speaker 1: the doe, because you're breaking the die right now, because
15:15
Speaker 1: we hear Bart thinking that Yogola has a theory about
15:19
Speaker 1: buying black to block, Mike Epps and his wife buying
15:22
Speaker 1: back the block, as these brothers in the Houston, Texas,
15:25
Speaker 1: the neighborhood I grew up in Fifth Ward buying back
15:28
Speaker 1: the block. Now when I hear you, real estate African
15:31
Speaker 1: American man up in Boston area, what is your thoughts
15:34
Speaker 1: when you hear these presentations of these projects about buying
15:38
Speaker 1: black blocks within the African American community.
15:43
Speaker 2: I think it goes back to what you said earlier.
15:45
Speaker 2: You mentioned that no more land is being created, right,
15:49
Speaker 2: you know, I mean companies are being created, crypto and
15:53
Speaker 2: all that stuff is always being created and manipulated. But
15:55
Speaker 2: land it's always there. And I'll go back to what
15:58
Speaker 2: I said earlier. Our people bought here to work the lane.
16:02
Speaker 2: Now it's time for us to own the lane.
16:05
Speaker 1: Right.
16:05
Speaker 2: So I'm a farm I'm a proponent of us owning
16:10
Speaker 2: where we live, because only where we work, owning where
16:14
Speaker 2: we go to church.
16:15
Speaker 1: Right, Because the reason I'm being because you got a congregation.
16:18
Speaker 1: I'm just challenging you with some broadcasts, you know, because
16:21
Speaker 1: that means that you have a group of people who
16:22
Speaker 1: can possibly pull money together. And because I know that works,
16:27
Speaker 1: I do know that I missed out on an opportunity
16:30
Speaker 1: in Houston, Texas and in their community called third Ward.
16:34
Speaker 1: Now you buy back a block. You go in, ladies
16:36
Speaker 1: and gentlemen, these houses are way wonefully under value, and
16:41
Speaker 1: you go down to the city if they want you
16:43
Speaker 1: to upgrade these communities. Because you upgrade the communities, they
16:46
Speaker 1: are more property tax. That's what going back the community
16:49
Speaker 1: is all about, upgrading the property tax, because that's the
16:52
Speaker 1: only way you're going to improve school education for your
16:55
Speaker 1: kids is by raising the property tax of your home
16:59
Speaker 1: that you live in or the dwellings all the community
17:02
Speaker 1: you live in. And So when I say that, is
17:04
Speaker 1: this something that's been in your mind that you thought
17:07
Speaker 1: about doing in the Bolshon area.
17:10
Speaker 2: I've thought about doing it in the Bosonaria. But I
17:12
Speaker 2: also have thought about doing it in New Heavy Connecticut,
17:14
Speaker 2: where I'm from. A real ride, you know what I mean,
17:17
Speaker 2: Because I drive around. My dad passed last August, and
17:21
Speaker 2: so I inherited some property from him, two pieces of
17:24
Speaker 2: property that he had paid off. And my dad that
17:28
Speaker 2: was a big thing to him. That was a legacy
17:30
Speaker 2: move for him, because I believe in every man part
17:35
Speaker 2: of his legacies, not only how he lives, but what
17:37
Speaker 2: he leaves behind. Got it and so it was important
17:42
Speaker 2: for him to leave myself properly. I'm an only child.
17:44
Speaker 2: And then as I'm driving around the city and I'm
17:47
Speaker 2: noticing all of these properties that are dilapidated, or I'm
17:51
Speaker 2: noticing all of these areas that if they just got
17:54
Speaker 2: what I call so love, they were appreciate in value.
17:57
Speaker 2: But a lot of times because of people have lived
18:01
Speaker 2: there so long, they miss it, right, you know what
18:05
Speaker 2: I mean, You could get close to something, and so
18:09
Speaker 2: I believe it's a phenomenalon any city I go to.
18:11
Speaker 2: I was in My wife and I were in Puerto
18:14
Speaker 2: Rico last week on vacation with our youngest daughter. And
18:17
Speaker 2: I'm in Puerto Rico and I'm looking at all these
18:19
Speaker 2: dilapidated buildings based off of the last hurricane that came there.
18:23
Speaker 2: And so any city I go to, I bet you
18:27
Speaker 2: I could take you to a place, and I could
18:28
Speaker 2: pick out one or two places. I said, you know what,
18:31
Speaker 2: and based off I was in Detroit last summer, same thing.
18:34
Speaker 2: I'm in downtown to church and my son. I drove
18:37
Speaker 2: a couple of minutes outside Detroit and I saw all
18:39
Speaker 2: these neighborhoods. And if you know anything about the path
18:41
Speaker 2: of progression, usually things come from down downtown and go
18:45
Speaker 2: out there.
18:45
Speaker 1: Yes, it does.
18:46
Speaker 2: And so if you can get those properties ahead of
18:50
Speaker 2: time and get a sense of what the city is
18:52
Speaker 2: gonna do, and any any area that you live in
18:55
Speaker 2: people listening to us and listen to all over the players,
18:57
Speaker 2: if you can find out what the city's gonna do
18:59
Speaker 2: and get ahead of that, they have the check for
19:02
Speaker 2: you to build wealth.
19:02
Speaker 1: That way, Yeah, we're having to rewealth somebody on this
19:06
Speaker 1: show right now. Pass because I want to challenge people,
19:11
Speaker 1: because you're absolutely right, their properties in certain cities, big
19:15
Speaker 1: cities that you could buy for a.
19:16
Speaker 2: Dollar even exactly you're going to rework it and raise
19:20
Speaker 2: the value of their property because they know they're not
19:25
Speaker 2: going to do anything with it.
19:27
Speaker 1: So it's up to us now, Like you said, the
19:29
Speaker 1: mindset and the research. That's where it comes from. Because
19:33
Speaker 1: of the fact that I do this show and it's
19:36
Speaker 1: about the secrets of success, and when I'm listening to you,
19:41
Speaker 1: it seems like it's about the mindset, it's about the motivation.
19:45
Speaker 1: Tell us in detail your secrets of success when you're
19:48
Speaker 1: talking to people about wealth building, right.
19:52
Speaker 2: Well, my mind, my mindset goes back to my father, right,
19:57
Speaker 2: you know, my dad wants to properties. Yes, yes, I
20:00
Speaker 2: mean just in general, you know. I I've grown up
20:02
Speaker 2: in a family where entrepreneurship real estate only was just
20:08
Speaker 2: what we did, you know. And so I'm so I'm
20:12
Speaker 2: very fortunate in that fact that I grew up around that.
20:14
Speaker 2: My first business school was a barbershop. So I saw
20:18
Speaker 2: men and women, you know, standing there with a dream
20:21
Speaker 2: in their heart and clippers in their hands, build something,
20:24
Speaker 2: you know what I mean. And so so I've always
20:28
Speaker 2: I've always operated like that. And what has been a
20:31
Speaker 2: large frustration for me dealing with maybe as a pastor
20:34
Speaker 2: and other people I deal with, is that you know,
20:36
Speaker 2: they don't they don't see that, but I go it
20:38
Speaker 2: goes back to I guess, okay, that shul This has
20:41
Speaker 2: been your lifestyle from the womb almost, which is you.
20:45
Speaker 1: Know, which is all Traditionally white people are able to
20:49
Speaker 1: succeed because they're not. It's that foreign to their level
20:53
Speaker 1: of thinking.
20:53
Speaker 2: Yes, yes, and and and it's so much of you know,
20:58
Speaker 2: we have to get people desire level up. Yes, yes, yes,
21:03
Speaker 2: a lot of times if you don't desire this, that's
21:06
Speaker 2: why I love That's why I love the name of
21:07
Speaker 2: your show is you got to get people to desire
21:10
Speaker 2: to make money. Yes, and if you don't have it,
21:12
Speaker 2: you don't have a desire for it. Man, we could
21:14
Speaker 2: talk all day long, so you know, we we we
21:17
Speaker 2: That's why I'm so much on mindset. I'm on so
21:19
Speaker 2: much on desire, so much on you deserve more. Don't
21:23
Speaker 2: you believe you should have more?
21:25
Speaker 1: You know, the fire the mindset to.
21:29
Speaker 2: Get that, that's the motivation. I mean, you know this.
21:32
Speaker 2: You know, if somebody cooks a play of food and
21:35
Speaker 2: you're not hungry, it'll sit right there.
21:37
Speaker 1: Right But I take that plate of food, put in
21:40
Speaker 1: a refrigerator and we eat it the next day. That's
21:44
Speaker 1: the mindset of understanding value. Yeah, like you said, people
21:48
Speaker 1: drive through the communities that they live in complaining about opportunity,
21:53
Speaker 1: and they oftentime are on a bus driving past opportunity,
21:57
Speaker 1: saving that money a little bit of time because everybody
22:00
Speaker 1: wants to win the lotto instead of gradually getting there
22:04
Speaker 1: with an understanding, understated plan. And that's that's what we're
22:07
Speaker 1: talking about right now. And how we were we were
22:10
Speaker 1: out summit on Money Made Conversations, Master hosts, guy past
22:14
Speaker 1: the desk could be Jenis I got I got credit
22:20
Speaker 1: because the fact that when we come out the box,
22:24
Speaker 1: I oftentimes gets frustrated because the fact that I'm African
22:28
Speaker 1: American and I see so many people who dream big
22:32
Speaker 1: but out of plan. And you were in the congregation,
22:35
Speaker 1: You're in there, you were the God business where people
22:39
Speaker 1: pray but don't do the work. Watch out Now, that
22:45
Speaker 1: could be frustrating because I see it on the economic side.
22:49
Speaker 1: You see it on the spiritual side. Talk to us, yes, well.
22:52
Speaker 2: And and and you hit the nail on head because
22:55
Speaker 2: God is a business person. People. People don't get that
23:00
Speaker 2: that God is a business plan. You know, Salvation was
23:03
Speaker 2: a plan. Well, everything about God is business and having
23:07
Speaker 2: a plan and through sometime you know what we have,
23:11
Speaker 2: what we have failed to do is we have aspirations
23:14
Speaker 2: and dreams, but we failed to sit down, like I said,
23:18
Speaker 2: like I like to say, sit eye, happy, hips down
23:22
Speaker 2: plank because it's in the planning and you're putting that
23:26
Speaker 2: plan of the action that dreams come to past, you
23:29
Speaker 2: know what I mean. And so if you don't have
23:31
Speaker 2: a desire, if you don't have a plan, if you
23:34
Speaker 2: don't get the education and stuff that you need in
23:37
Speaker 2: order to bring the past, it'll be it'll be just
23:39
Speaker 2: a dream, you know. And so I'm always pushing cong
23:43
Speaker 2: of my congregants. I'm always pushing the people that you know,
23:46
Speaker 2: I'm talking to you about, Hey, it's good enough to
23:48
Speaker 2: have to just good to have to dream, but then
23:50
Speaker 2: I got to have some practical steps that get me
23:52
Speaker 2: from A to B.
23:54
Speaker 1: Awesome. Now, you have another book coming out, you know
23:57
Speaker 1: in the summertime, talking talk to us about your new
23:59
Speaker 1: book and.
24:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's called The Real Estate Wealth Creation Blueprint,
24:07
Speaker 2: And it's all about what we've been talking about, how
24:10
Speaker 2: do we use real estate as a wealth creation too
24:12
Speaker 2: and put together a simple blueprint to do that, you know.
24:16
Speaker 2: And so it's all about what my wife and I
24:18
Speaker 2: have done since twenty seventeen as real estate developers. You
24:21
Speaker 2: know what I've learned as a kid, you know, through
24:23
Speaker 2: watching my dad and other real estate individuals, and really
24:27
Speaker 2: it's a tool to really to inspire and get people
24:29
Speaker 2: to desire to become wealthy number one, but the number
24:32
Speaker 2: two to use real estate as a primary creation too
24:35
Speaker 2: for themselves.
24:36
Speaker 1: We know I wouldn't thank you for coming on the show.
24:38
Speaker 1: I always feel that when I sit down, I don't
24:41
Speaker 1: know everything, Pastor Jenkins, but I'm willing to learn everything correct,
24:47
Speaker 1: because that's important to consume information and not deny yourself
24:51
Speaker 1: just because that's not your laying of opportunity, and so
24:55
Speaker 1: many people forget that you get and and you grow
24:59
Speaker 1: by learning things you don't know versus sometimes trying to
25:03
Speaker 1: understand the things that you do know. Got to expand,
25:06
Speaker 1: and that's what you're talking about, expanding your wealth to
25:08
Speaker 1: real estate. Mindset, refire if you're over fifty and don't
25:14
Speaker 1: settle for the outcome that everybody told you is waiting note.
25:17
Speaker 2: Correct correct, one hundred percent.
