Speaker 1: young Man? Experience announced a financial inclusion campaign called Boost
3:02
Speaker 1: America featuring him. Please welcome to money making Conversations Financial
3:08
Speaker 1: empowerment activists here Harper. Hey, yeah, yeah, I was eventually
3:15
Speaker 1: gonna introduce you to talk to you money making conversations. Um,
3:19
Speaker 1: you know, these types of conversations are so important. So
3:21
Speaker 1: I'm so proud of you in this show. So fantastic.
3:24
Speaker 1: Well you came to the right show because uh, it
3:26
Speaker 1: really is really unique, man, because you supported me when
3:29
Speaker 1: I first launched it, and now so many platforms and
3:33
Speaker 1: and my reach is really incredible now, especially with my podcasts,
3:36
Speaker 1: and the show is starting to get syndicated different market.
3:40
Speaker 1: In fact, we started, uh Greensboro a lot of this
3:43
Speaker 1: Mother's Day I'll start broadcasting there and so well and
3:47
Speaker 1: so important because we need to have these conversations for empowerment.
3:51
Speaker 1: We need financial empowerment and and and and folks need
3:54
Speaker 1: the information. So so what you're doing is so vital.
3:57
Speaker 1: Thank you. So let's talk about Experience, you know, which
4:00
Speaker 1: is explaining to what experience is and then alsow your
4:03
Speaker 1: relationship with the Boost America campaign. Okay, so Experience is
4:08
Speaker 1: one of the big three credit rating agencies and and
4:12
Speaker 1: and you know, and your audience certainly knows how important
4:16
Speaker 1: your credit scores in your life, and we can you know,
4:18
Speaker 1: I think what we should dig deep into that and
4:20
Speaker 1: we'll talk about that. But what the Experience Boost America
4:24
Speaker 1: campaign is, and it's really a challenge to individuals, to
4:29
Speaker 1: folks in town cities, families, friends, and folks across the
4:31
Speaker 1: country to engage with their credit to take control. You know,
4:36
Speaker 1: right now in this country, there are more than one
4:39
Speaker 1: million people in the U s who don't have a
4:41
Speaker 1: fair chance to access to credit today because they have
4:44
Speaker 1: limited information in their credit files or they don't have
4:47
Speaker 1: a credit file at all. And that's certainly not good
4:49
Speaker 1: for them, but it's also not good for our communities
4:53
Speaker 1: in the American economy. You know, these people they're forced
4:56
Speaker 1: to rely on high interest credit cards and loans and
4:59
Speaker 1: and things that that many of us take for granted.
5:01
Speaker 1: And and the study just came out re founded that
5:04
Speaker 1: that if you have a subprime score below, you're gonna
5:07
Speaker 1: pay more than two hundred thousand dollars and added fees
5:11
Speaker 1: and cause over the course of your lifetime. So the
5:14
Speaker 1: question is, in that environment, how can we ever build wealth.
5:19
Speaker 1: So the fact that experience is innovating in this case,
5:23
Speaker 1: they're the first to add to their algorithm the ability
5:27
Speaker 1: for the consumer that's me and you and everybody listening
5:31
Speaker 1: to load in positive payment information into their credit file
5:35
Speaker 1: and in which will ultimately over time, boost your score.
5:40
Speaker 1: That's why it's called boost America to boost your score
5:43
Speaker 1: because up until now that many much of this positive
5:47
Speaker 1: payment history has not been in your file. Because we know,
5:51
Speaker 1: folks in our community, the one thing we do pay
5:54
Speaker 1: every month is our cell phone bill as an example, right,
5:56
Speaker 1: because that's our lifeline to our friends and family. One
6:00
Speaker 1: thing we do pay our utility bills. We keep that
6:02
Speaker 1: electricity on. We we we take care of our family
6:05
Speaker 1: when things are tight. Sometimes we'll let our credit card
6:08
Speaker 1: balances run, but we don't let our cell phone bill
6:11
Speaker 1: run or our electricity or water to pay those. But
6:14
Speaker 1: we've never gotten craft for that before. I'll kill now exactly.
6:18
Speaker 1: So this is it's a powerful tool for us, and
6:21
Speaker 1: and that's why I'm I'm a hundred percent behind it, folks.
6:24
Speaker 1: Experience is the only one of the big three that
6:26
Speaker 1: offers this. You know, the other two are called Equifax
6:29
Speaker 1: and TransUnion, and but Experience the only one is offering it.
6:33
Speaker 1: Um you go you go onto the website Experience dot
6:36
Speaker 1: com backslized boost America. You go in, you have to,
6:39
Speaker 1: you know, put the information if you're paying these accounts
6:42
Speaker 1: through that you have to pay your utility, yourself phone,
6:45
Speaker 1: but you have to be paying them through your bank
6:46
Speaker 1: account either checking your savings, and the names have to match, right,
6:50
Speaker 1: you can't. You're not gonna get credit for Grandmama paying
6:52
Speaker 1: her cell bill, you know what I'm saying. But as
6:56
Speaker 1: long as the names match, you pay them through a
6:58
Speaker 1: bank account, you can get credit, and it make sure
7:02
Speaker 1: it gives you more positive payment history into your file,
7:05
Speaker 1: and therefore, hopefully your score will will rise. It's really
7:09
Speaker 1: important that people understand how important credit is. For some reason,
7:14
Speaker 1: uh eighteen seventeen, I always understood credit. Not that my
7:18
Speaker 1: parents had good credit, they didn't, but I understood the
7:21
Speaker 1: value of good credit, the value of paying things off,
7:25
Speaker 1: and and so I remember back in my day, you know,
7:27
Speaker 1: a serious credit card really had back in the day,
7:29
Speaker 1: had more value than the American Express and not seriously
7:31
Speaker 1: is out of business, but seriously, you gotta serious credit card.
7:34
Speaker 1: It opened up the doors to all your credit cards,
7:36
Speaker 1: and so so like my like my credit card score
7:39
Speaker 1: you Rahan, do you follow you do? My credit score
7:42
Speaker 1: right now is a thirty five. Even at my level.
7:45
Speaker 1: I understand that just because I can generate large sums
7:49
Speaker 1: of income, I can also also need credit because you
7:52
Speaker 1: don't want to be using your income all the time.
7:54
Speaker 1: And so a thirty five is my score, and so
7:56
Speaker 1: nine is the maximum you can get. And so so
8:00
Speaker 1: I'm proud of that score. But it takes well I'm
8:02
Speaker 1: about to break, you know, eight fifties to max. So
8:05
Speaker 1: you're right there, right there, and so and watch this
8:14
Speaker 1: experience boost even worse for you that has high credit.
8:17
Speaker 1: That's why I'm telling everybody to do it. Your score
8:21
Speaker 1: may only go up one or two numbers, but that's
8:24
Speaker 1: better than zero. See every single time it moves, I
8:27
Speaker 1: feel good. If I see my score go up one point,
8:29
Speaker 1: I feel good. And and and this is the thing
8:32
Speaker 1: people have to think about with credit. This is a
8:34
Speaker 1: really important thing. Credit is a tool. If this is
8:38
Speaker 1: a tool, just like money is a tool. You know,
8:40
Speaker 1: people get real emotional about it. They get stressed out
8:42
Speaker 1: about Think about credit like a hammer. You don't get
8:45
Speaker 1: emotional about a hammer. Hammers can can build things, but
8:48
Speaker 1: they also can tear things. Down and credit the exact
8:51
Speaker 1: same way you use it properly can help you build
8:53
Speaker 1: your life, help you achieve your goals and drains. If
8:55
Speaker 1: you use it improperly, it actually hurts you because you're
8:58
Speaker 1: in a lot of debt and you and and you're
9:00
Speaker 1: servicing that debt, and you're and you're paying more and
9:03
Speaker 1: it's hard to get out from under it. Let's let's
9:06
Speaker 1: put out some good things here, uh where you can
9:08
Speaker 1: go for discussions about ww dot experience dot com, force
9:12
Speaker 1: lass boost America, and follow hashtag boost America. So with
9:17
Speaker 1: that being said, is that of responsibility when you when
9:20
Speaker 1: you take them on these type of titles or you
9:22
Speaker 1: try to, uh, you know, empower people to live a
9:25
Speaker 1: better life. Hell yes, you know. When I think about
9:31
Speaker 1: our our our communities and I think about the idea
9:33
Speaker 1: of cross generational wealth transfer, you start to realize that
9:38
Speaker 1: the only way that can start to happen is if
9:41
Speaker 1: we really take care of the fundamentals. It's almost like athletics, right,
9:45
Speaker 1: you gotta learn the fundamentals before you start to win
9:49
Speaker 1: the trick shots and so in in in the same
9:53
Speaker 1: holds true for wealth building and financial literacy. So credit
9:57
Speaker 1: is one of the foundational elements of learning it and
10:01
Speaker 1: and and being able to So so we've got to
10:03
Speaker 1: start at the basics before something. You know, someone can
10:05
Speaker 1: come up to me, man, I want to own apartment
10:07
Speaker 1: buildings across the country, and I'm like, well, let's talk
10:09
Speaker 1: about credit first. You know, let's let's go to the
10:11
Speaker 1: basics first, and then we'll talk about it how you
10:13
Speaker 1: can start acquiring apartment buildings across the country, you know. So,
10:17
Speaker 1: so it's we always have to go back to the
10:19
Speaker 1: basics in the beginning. And that's why this partnership with
10:21
Speaker 1: Experience is so important because I'm I'm celebrating a company
10:25
Speaker 1: that's innovating, and that's important because unless we have you know,
10:30
Speaker 1: these companies innovate to try to create products that people
10:34
Speaker 1: can use to empower themselves. Then then I want to
10:38
Speaker 1: encourage other companies to follow suits. So so you know, um,
10:41
Speaker 1: that's why I'm proud to be the brand ambassador for
10:44
Speaker 1: product and I want people to use it and adopt
10:47
Speaker 1: it because it will send a message and saying, hey,
10:50
Speaker 1: the more we do these types of innovation things, um,
10:53
Speaker 1: the more the more people use them and adopt them,
10:56
Speaker 1: We're gonna come out with even more products that can
10:59
Speaker 1: that people can use to empower themselves. Well, like I
11:01
Speaker 1: told earlier the interview, I said, uh, all my life,
11:05
Speaker 1: I've always felt the credit was important to me. I
11:08
Speaker 1: know that's a certain responsibility. It comes with trying to
11:11
Speaker 1: maintain and build good credit and to see you as
11:14
Speaker 1: a brand ambassador under this campaign called boost America tied
11:19
Speaker 1: to one of the top credit firms experience. Let's me
11:22
Speaker 1: know that this direction isn't good hands really really good hands. Well,
11:27
Speaker 1: thank you, thank you, and I appreciate you having this
11:29
Speaker 1: show in these conversations because all of this is important.
11:33
Speaker 1: Too many of us. We stressed out about money. We
11:37
Speaker 1: we in credit, and we put our head in the
11:40
Speaker 1: sand and be like, you know, someone told me today,
11:42
Speaker 1: I don't even want to know my score, and I'm
11:44
Speaker 1: saying that's that's m let's you know, let's really dig
11:49
Speaker 1: in and and know your score and then start fixing it.
11:52
Speaker 1: We have to do that for each other. We have
11:54
Speaker 1: to support each other in it. And you know, Dr
11:57
Speaker 1: Kingson raw tied together in a single garment of much
12:00
Speaker 1: of destiny. So I totually believe my destiny is linked
12:03
Speaker 1: with yours. It's just like you were saying at the beginning,
12:05
Speaker 1: your show has expanded its reach. So to the extent
12:08
Speaker 1: your show expands, we can work together to expand and
12:11
Speaker 1: help each other spread a message and and hopefully empower folks.
12:15
Speaker 1: And that's the way it works with none of our
12:17
Speaker 1: none of us are in this alone. And too many
12:20
Speaker 1: times we have folks that are making the money not
12:23
Speaker 1: sharing the secrets about how they can empower other people
12:25
Speaker 1: because they're like, I want it all for myself. That's
12:28
Speaker 1: totally not the type of person I am. I want
12:30
Speaker 1: as much information. I want other people to win as
12:33
Speaker 1: much because I know I'm tied to them just as
12:35
Speaker 1: much they're tied to me. Awesome, Uh, this is hell, Harper, Hell,

Speaker 1: I was looking for a better way to check in
12:48
Speaker 1: on our house while I was at work, and a
12:50
Speaker 1: friend recommended Blink. I was skeptical, but decided to give
12:53
Speaker 1: it a shot, and I bought a Blink camera system.
12:55
Speaker 1: With our last security system, false alarms, wires everywhere, and
12:59
Speaker 1: monthly fees couldn't get out of my bad. But our
13:01
Speaker 1: Blink system is different. Their motion activated cameras that work
13:04
Speaker 1: inside and outside their wire free, easy to set up,
13:07
Speaker 1: and they run on two lithium batteries that last up
13:10
Speaker 1: to two years. Total peace of mind and Blink camera
13:12
Speaker 1: system started under eighty bucks with no subscriptions. We were
13:16
Speaker 1: on vacation and I gotten to learn of my smartphone
13:18
Speaker 1: that motion was detected at our front door. I checked
13:21
Speaker 1: my Blink app and I saw it was just my
13:22
Speaker 1: cool new device being delivered. Hey, we agreed no new
13:25
Speaker 1: devices except Blink. Just kidding, not kidding. With Blink camera
13:29
Speaker 1: systems starting under eighty bucks, home security just got easier.

14:17
Speaker 1: our taxes. It was depressing. I mean, we earned good money,
14:21
Speaker 1: but we're always behind in bills. So we met with
14:23
Speaker 1: this financial advisor who found two huge problems unplanned expenses
14:27
Speaker 1: like home repairs and medical bills and credit cards with
14:30
Speaker 1: crazy high interest rates. Anyway, he grafted out a brilliant strategy.
14:34
Speaker 1: If we could get a favorable fixed rate personal loan,
14:37
Speaker 1: we could pay off all our bills and credit cards
14:40
Speaker 1: and still have cash at the end of the month
14:41
Speaker 1: for emergencies and a summer vacation. He suggested best egg
14:45

14:48
Speaker 1: four point eight out of five stars on consumer affairs.
14:52
Speaker 1: The online loan app took about a minute and it
14:54
Speaker 1: didn't affect our credit score. We got our personal loan,
14:56
Speaker 1: paid off credit card bills, and lowered our monthly pay
15:00

Speaker 1: about this, but I was sorry, I want to talk
18:27
Speaker 1: about you two, your career is amazing. But but because
18:31
Speaker 1: you know when it's when I first are the wire,
18:35
Speaker 1: you know, you've worked with some amazing talents as you're
18:37
Speaker 1: working into and you've been working with in this series
18:40
Speaker 1: because I was had Franky Face one on the show
18:43
Speaker 1: about three weeks ago. He's great. Yeah, you know, And
18:47
Speaker 1: and again that's the type of talent that you work around.
18:50
Speaker 1: Of course, you know interest Elbow off of the Wire,
18:53
Speaker 1: you work on series man that people a lot of
18:56
Speaker 1: people continue to work and I mean you see him
18:59
Speaker 1: in mood movies. You see like my Girl, she's in
19:02
Speaker 1: uh Man in the Wasp, you know all these so
19:05
Speaker 1: you your your your that that lets me know that
19:07
Speaker 1: your abilities as an actor is always challenged and you
19:11
Speaker 1: always rise to the cage to the occasion. Correct. Well,
19:15
Speaker 1: I've been very fortunate and and for me, the quality
19:19
Speaker 1: of the work has always come first. So I mean
19:21
Speaker 1: I was really when I was in drama school, I
19:23
Speaker 1: was really pretty from from a time because I came
19:26
Speaker 1: acting late in life. I mean I acted in college
19:28
Speaker 1: for fun, but I didn't really start pursuing acting as
19:31
Speaker 1: a as a as a vocation until it was twenty
19:33
Speaker 1: seven years old. So um, it was something that kind
19:36
Speaker 1: of stumbled into because originally I trained as a musician.
19:39
Speaker 1: So when I when I started acting, that really kind
19:42
Speaker 1: of um attacked learning the craft with the kind of
19:47
Speaker 1: ferocity um so um that has served me well since.
19:52
Speaker 1: And I feel like I really got um, I got
19:55
Speaker 1: my money's worth out of drama school. That really it was.
19:58
Speaker 1: It was a good investment. Well, you're this is interesting.
20:00
Speaker 1: So you know you got this this great voice. So
20:03
Speaker 1: I'm sure your friends and your buddies you know, I'm
20:05
Speaker 1: sure the originally that voice because you say using music,
20:08
Speaker 1: using musician, so I know you were smooth talking Lance.
20:11
Speaker 1: I know that. Well, I have a nice singing voice,
20:17
Speaker 1: but I mean I was never I mean I sing
20:21
Speaker 1: and I have a nice voice, but my major was composition.
20:24
Speaker 1: I grew up um writing songs and then studying classical
20:28
Speaker 1: piano on classical classical complition. So I never I never
20:32
Speaker 1: really considered myself a singer as much as a songwriting
20:35
Speaker 1: with a nice voice. And so so now now when
20:38
Speaker 1: you made that transition, Now did you feel that because
20:42
Speaker 1: I know your music, Like I said, music it never
20:44
Speaker 1: leaves your soul, your spirit. But you're you're You're predominantly
20:47
Speaker 1: known as an actor, are you your shaping music into
20:51
Speaker 1: your career. Well, it's funny because I, uh, well, first
20:55
Speaker 1: of all, my training I found my training as a musician,
20:59
Speaker 1: sir um really informed how I approached my work as
21:04
Speaker 1: an actor when I started, when I started to train
21:06
Speaker 1: the uh to learn how to act so um, even
21:11
Speaker 1: even learning how to practice right the piano, you know
21:14
Speaker 1: what I mean, It informed how I approached There's a
21:18
Speaker 1: there was a kind of an analytical and systematical way
21:20
Speaker 1: that I approached learning the lines um and a lot
21:23
Speaker 1: of that came out of my training as a musician.
21:26
Speaker 1: And a lot of people understand that you have to
21:27
Speaker 1: lout challenge the truth because I just look background on me.
21:31
Speaker 1: I played tennis, saxophone, alto saxophone, and clarinet, and I
21:37
Speaker 1: know that from a memory standpoint. And when you use
21:40
Speaker 1: the word analytical, now, my degree in colleges and mathematics,
21:44
Speaker 1: and it was all derived from the fact that when
21:46
Speaker 1: you play music and you start getting to these levels
21:48
Speaker 1: and these tones, and because you're here note you say
21:51
Speaker 1: you know that that that note is and so, and
21:53
Speaker 1: when you look at the history of music, when you
21:55
Speaker 1: go back to Mozark and Beethoven, and all this you go,
21:59
Speaker 1: it's all really a form a math and so and
22:01
Speaker 1: it's back was obsessed with numbers. Wow, that's wow, that's
22:06
Speaker 1: really cool. A lot of times you supposed to be
22:11
Speaker 1: interview means though it's like, okay, this is I ain't
22:14
Speaker 1: never I've never talked to nobody like this before. Because
22:17
Speaker 1: you know that that because I really I try to
22:19
Speaker 1: get interviews on the show that that there. I try
22:22
Speaker 1: to pull out those gems because I get a lot
22:24
Speaker 1: of people who interview my show up. Nobody's ever asked
22:26
Speaker 1: me that question because actually just just just I've had
22:30
Speaker 1: a great life and I still a living a great
22:33
Speaker 1: life lands and when I'm able to talk to you,
22:35
Speaker 1: when you start talking about music, I'm right in line
22:37
Speaker 1: with you because I always always recommend young people to
22:41
Speaker 1: uh uh, not just listen to music, but participate in
22:44
Speaker 1: the music. Learn how to play an instrument, piano. It's
22:47
Speaker 1: something that will allow you to get into the thought
22:51
Speaker 1: process because once you get into music and you can
22:54
Speaker 1: attest to this, it just takes you on a journey.
22:57
Speaker 1: Am I correct? Oh? Absolutely. And it's interesting because even
23:01
Speaker 1: beyond just speaking about music specifically, um, I think to
23:05
Speaker 1: the point of kind of approaching uh trying to approach
23:09
Speaker 1: life uh successfully. I put that in quotes. Um. One
23:15
Speaker 1: of the things that I've found, uh is that, um,
23:19
Speaker 1: you never know where following your interests uh and your
23:24
Speaker 1: passing for learning will take you. So um who I
23:29
Speaker 1: mean even though I started, you know, as a musician,
23:31
Speaker 1: because the other thing is interestingly enough, you know, I was,
23:35
Speaker 1: I loved math, and I was actually physics making my
23:37
Speaker 1: first year in college before I transferred to music school.
23:39
Speaker 1: So so um, you just never know how, um, just
23:46
Speaker 1: following you know how, even even if you don't end
23:49
Speaker 1: up following what a particular path you don't you end
23:53
Speaker 1: up going on a different path. What learning something from
23:56
Speaker 1: from from different disparate paths will uh, how they will
24:00
Speaker 1: serve you later. And that's important for people to hear
24:04
Speaker 1: that about your talents because like you said, you know,
24:07
Speaker 1: people get in life they are afraid to make a change,
24:09
Speaker 1: lands afraid that Okay, this is I've been told, this
24:12
Speaker 1: is this is where I should take by my journey.
24:15
Speaker 1: And you're you know, like you said, physics man, musician. Uh.
24:19
Speaker 1: Then the twenty seven you got into acting, none of
24:21
Speaker 1: that was guaranteed? What what what? What was what were
24:25
Speaker 1: your support groups? Well, I have to tell you that
24:28
Speaker 1: I don't normally tend to talk like this, but in
24:32
Speaker 1: terms of kind of how and I hope this. I'm
24:37
Speaker 1: afraid this doesn't necesarily answer your question. But when I
24:40
Speaker 1: started acting, that was how I got from there to here. Um.
24:46
Speaker 1: I mean two years after I started acting, I was
24:48
Speaker 1: in at the year drama school and the only place applied.
24:51
Speaker 1: It was one of those things where I that was
24:53
Speaker 1: the moment in my life where I felt that I
24:54
Speaker 1: was really divinely, like something was guiding me. I appreciate
24:57
Speaker 1: you coming on my show. I appreciate here man. I'm
25:00
Speaker 1: a fan. Any time you want to promote anything, whether uh,

Speaker 1: I saw I saw a number of movies down here.

25:15
Speaker 1: come back to money making conversations. Okay, there are two
25:18
Speaker 1: other things that like the plug real quick? What is
25:21
Speaker 1: uh the fifth season? The Boss has just dropped? Uh,
25:24
Speaker 1: it's a great show. Um, it's it's um like I said,
25:28
Speaker 1: it's the fifth seasons on Amazon. I think it's the
25:31
Speaker 1: each season gets better better than it's the best season
25:33
Speaker 1: yet season. They probably wanted The Little Woods, which is
25:36

25:53

25:57
Speaker 1: it's an incredible drama. Yeah, my man, I appreciate you again.

29:54
Speaker 1: Money Making Conversation, Jay Williams, Sean, thanks for having me, man,
29:59
Speaker 1: I appreciate being here. Well, J said before they you know,
30:02
Speaker 1: like I said, uh, you know meeting you at a
30:04
Speaker 1: young age. I was way back. I was early stage
30:08
Speaker 1: with Steve Harving. I started our partnership. We're doing a
30:11
Speaker 1: radio show in Los Angeles, California, naty two point three
30:14
Speaker 1: to be and this a very gifted young man with
30:17
Speaker 1: a lot of energy and a lot of confidence. He
30:20
Speaker 1: was out there schedule to perform and the Magic John's
30:23
Speaker 1: do this charity classic called the Magic Classic, and he
30:26
Speaker 1: would invite the pros and un invite these hot shot
30:30
Speaker 1: young athletes who about the end of the pros and
30:32
Speaker 1: Mr Williams one of those hot shots, and uh, my man,
30:36
Speaker 1: just watching the comeback you have from the physical drama
30:40
Speaker 1: that came into your life and being able to see
30:42
Speaker 1: you make an attempt to play basketball again at that
30:45
Speaker 1: high professional level that you performed that when you was
30:48
Speaker 1: in college to be the number two pick in the draft.
30:52
Speaker 1: That's that's that's a series of events that that allows
30:54
Speaker 1: me to say that you do not allow uh setbacks
30:59
Speaker 1: the whole you back. Well, there's no such thing as
31:03
Speaker 1: a setback. In my opain. I think if you're lucky
31:05
Speaker 1: enough to be here, everything that occurs is a growth opportunity.
31:09
Speaker 1: And uh, I think it's taken me a couple of
31:11
Speaker 1: years to get to that point where that was my mindset.
31:14
Speaker 1: But now I look at everything with reason. So if
31:17
Speaker 1: something that maybe weren't to go my way in life occurs,
31:21
Speaker 1: I try to extract the lessons learn from that and
31:23
Speaker 1: try to make that applicable to the next opportunity I have.
31:27
Speaker 1: So it's uh, it's been one of the most fortunate
31:29
Speaker 1: things that ever happened to me in my life. Because
31:31
Speaker 1: I think a lot of people talk about diversity are
31:33
Speaker 1: they talk about how they would deal with but it's
31:35
Speaker 1: not until you really go through it, until you have
31:37
Speaker 1: to face it to truly recognize who am I? Who
31:40
Speaker 1: am I without what I do? What do I stand for?
31:44
Speaker 1: And I think you know, unfortunately for a lot of people,
31:47
Speaker 1: you spend so much time climbing the mountain in the
31:50
Speaker 1: matrix of life because life will throw eight million things
31:53
Speaker 1: at you, especially now with social media and you know
31:56
Speaker 1: what's going on with your job and then trying to
31:57
Speaker 1: have a family and then trying to maintain friendships, uh
32:00
Speaker 1: or maintain you know, something with a loved one. You
32:02
Speaker 1: don't spend any time self reflecting on you as a
32:05
Speaker 1: person and what you've gone through and how you have
32:09
Speaker 1: decided to extract, you know, lessons from those situations, and
32:13
Speaker 1: how you have learned. Are you making those lessons applicable
32:16
Speaker 1: to where you want to go? Have you even thought
32:18
Speaker 1: about putting together a blueprint on where you want to go?
32:21
Speaker 1: And Uh, I bump into a lot of people that
32:23
Speaker 1: are just constantly stagnant. They're just stuck in the same repellor,
32:26
Speaker 1: the cycle going around the same and houn't falling into
32:28
Speaker 1: the same trap over and over again, whether the trap
32:31
Speaker 1: has not caught you or not held you down. And
32:35
Speaker 1: so that what I look at you on TV now
32:37
Speaker 1: and I also see that that I don't think you
32:41
Speaker 1: really want to be just a sports guy. If that's
32:43
Speaker 1: the sense I get of you, I've seen you in
32:45
Speaker 1: other platforms. What is what is the plan? What does
32:47
Speaker 1: the game plan for? Jay Weems? Well, I don't know
32:50
Speaker 1: if I have a a game plan. I quickly seen
32:53
Speaker 1: how how plans can be shifted. Uh, when I met you,
32:58
Speaker 1: you you are well really the last time I had
33:01
Speaker 1: to plan was when I you know, I was like,
33:03
Speaker 1: I'm gonna be in leagues or ten fifteen years. Look
33:05
Speaker 1: at that plan worked out. So I think there is
33:08
Speaker 1: a sense of direction there are some kind of internal
33:11
Speaker 1: compass that can lead you in the direction. But ultimately
33:14
Speaker 1: I don't have this, you know, specialized blueprint on how
33:17
Speaker 1: to answer all the questions. I think it's a it's
33:19
Speaker 1: a matter of moving and shaking as long as you're
33:22
Speaker 1: headed in somewhat of your direction, your north star. But
33:25
Speaker 1: I think for me right now, my mist is how
33:28
Speaker 1: do I have autonomy in my business? So I want
33:32
Speaker 1: to build legacy? That is important? Can I get that
33:36
Speaker 1: legacy by being on TV and being a sports guy
33:39
Speaker 1: and build out a pretty you know, fascinating and great career.
33:42
Speaker 1: I think I've gotten to a pretty amazing point because
33:45
Speaker 1: I potentially have my own show one day. Yeah. But
33:47
Speaker 1: you know, for me, I love business too, so I
33:49
Speaker 1: love Hey, I have a holding company. How many subsidiaries
33:52
Speaker 1: do I have under my holding company? How many businesses
33:55
Speaker 1: can I own equity within that? I'm passionate about that
33:58
Speaker 1: I can lend a hand to and maybe that run
34:01
Speaker 1: on a day to day basis. Um understanding your strength
34:04
Speaker 1: senior weaknesses. How do I thround myself with the right
34:07
Speaker 1: kind of teammates? You know, now doing stuff at the
34:09
Speaker 1: Boe Room and Kevin Durant, a rich climate, you know,
34:12
Speaker 1: really digging deeper into businesses, understanding how other people have
34:16
Speaker 1: approached their businesses and how they've scaled those entities themselves.
34:20
Speaker 1: So for me, it's like, hey, I when I first
34:23
Speaker 1: got hurt, I invested into an inventsity company, code leverage agency,
34:26
Speaker 1: where we procured sponsorships from major event around the country.
34:30
Speaker 1: Then I started becoming a really good friends of different
34:32
Speaker 1: cmos and different sea level executives and started doing more
34:35
Speaker 1: branding and marketing and realize that you can move away
34:37
Speaker 1: from the traditional agencies to now brands doing it in
34:41
Speaker 1: their own barantasses. So consulting with the under arms, with
34:44
Speaker 1: the twenties for our fitnesses, putting in the time to understand,
34:48
Speaker 1: you know, actually, what is the workday, how much my
34:52
Speaker 1: intellect do I need to put into a certain product,
34:54
Speaker 1: How can we market that product? How do we go
34:56
Speaker 1: to a different demo with that product? And I think
34:59
Speaker 1: all that is leverage itself to the point to where
35:01
Speaker 1: I'm not now where it's like they're doing that with
35:03
Speaker 1: their ballroom. I'm getting involved in different investments. I have
35:06
Speaker 1: my own company calls Time, you know, Dventures, where I
35:10
Speaker 1: do a series of different investments and I work with
35:12
Speaker 1: other companies from a branding perspective, and I'm slowly scaling
35:16
Speaker 1: that business within itself. So you're the perfect Give you
35:19
Speaker 1: a lot there you do grad Now you you that
35:26
Speaker 1: the Greek played off somehow, Okay, you would constantly just
35:30
Speaker 1: driveling on that court. Now some some play that big
35:33
Speaker 1: out there. Now, let me ask you this about that
35:35
Speaker 1: the whole process of of being a talent and a
35:39
Speaker 1: sports talent and then with social media and everybody wants
35:42
Speaker 1: that that that that sound bite. Now you you you
35:45
Speaker 1: put out a sound bite very early in the college
35:48
Speaker 1: basketball season about the Duke basketball team. You see that
35:53
Speaker 1: that Duke basketball team could beat the Cleveland Cavaliers. You
35:58
Speaker 1: remember that, I do. Well, let me tell you about
36:01
Speaker 1: the interesting thing about sound bites, and this is the
36:03
Speaker 1: way media works. So a sound bite is when somebody
36:07
Speaker 1: clips off a portion of what I said that is
36:09
Speaker 1: not what I said, So that that you know, in
36:12
Speaker 1: people really to kind of because we live in the
36:15
Speaker 1: world now we're song where people just read headlines would
36:18
Speaker 1: no longer read. So for me, what I had said
36:23
Speaker 1: is at that time, you know, Kevin Love was out.
36:26
Speaker 1: Um they had about four or five of their players
36:29
Speaker 1: who all played significant minutes were out. They were due
36:31
Speaker 1: to injuries. So I was talking about a lot of
36:34
Speaker 1: their bench players and I said, currently, with the makeup
36:36
Speaker 1: of this roster team to meet this Cleveland Cavalier's team.
36:40
Speaker 1: People then took that sound bite and they transfixed that
36:44
Speaker 1: into oh, Jay said, Duke can be the Cleveland Cavaliers,
36:47
Speaker 1: and like, that's not what I said. But once again,
36:50
Speaker 1: you know, understanding this the reality of biproducts of the
36:53
Speaker 1: field I work in. Man, It's like people will choose
36:56
Speaker 1: to listen to what they want to hear, right, So
36:59
Speaker 1: you can try to after something by saying that the
37:01
Speaker 1: right way or by giving more context is something, but inevitably,
37:06
Speaker 1: sound bites are things that travel across the social media
37:09
Speaker 1: medium and that's how people listen to. So that's just
37:12
Speaker 1: how the industry works these days, apparently, And I guess,
37:15
Speaker 1: and I guess that's important that you understand that, accept
37:17
Speaker 1: the fact that you have to almost make sure you
37:20
Speaker 1: your complete sentence is complete and so they can't clip
37:23
Speaker 1: you like that. It's not actually take the reverse opposite approach,
37:27
Speaker 1: I said, And I say it with conviction because I
37:30
Speaker 1: didn't think regardless of where the media decides to spin it.
37:34
Speaker 1: That opens up a door for me to go on
37:35
Speaker 1: other platforms and continue to explain the narrative that I
37:38
Speaker 1: explained the first time. And I but I think that's
37:41
Speaker 1: a great lesson for a lot of younger people to
37:44
Speaker 1: listen to, because right now you can see the way
37:47
Speaker 1: a lot of media companies are trying to get as
37:49
Speaker 1: far as it relates to clickbait, you know, like I
37:51
Speaker 1: want you to click that menute, I get you a
37:53
Speaker 1: percent of revenue every time you click on my headline.
37:56
Speaker 1: So when you see a crazy headline, I understand, like
37:59
Speaker 1: or is there a current text to that, because I
38:00
Speaker 1: have to ask that sometimes we could on it's not
38:03
Speaker 1: even a story that we thought we were going to
38:04
Speaker 1: be reading about, right right right, I think there's all
38:07
Speaker 1: these mosses of business. Sometimes the normal person, like I said,
38:11
Speaker 1: we're so wrapped up into calming and dis mountain within
38:15
Speaker 1: the matrix of life, like you don't have time to
38:17
Speaker 1: mistand context. So it's just some of the people don't understand.
38:20
Speaker 1: Imagine is about the show The Boarder. What you can
38:22
Speaker 1: find on ESPN Plus is exclusively found on ESPN. It's
38:27
Speaker 1: it's a subscription you have to pay to get The
38:28
Speaker 1: show's hosted by Jay Williams, who I'm talking to right now.
38:31
Speaker 1: Hey Jay, what did you find when an interviewing these
38:34
Speaker 1: two dynamically different personalities, Kevin as as well as Lebron
38:39
Speaker 1: a little bit more advanced in his entrepreneur uh. I
38:44
Speaker 1: guess could say scale, But Kevin is coming up fast?
38:47
Speaker 1: What did you what? What did you? What did you
38:49
Speaker 1: gain from this show? Personally? Can I tell you something?
38:51
Speaker 1: You're the first person to ever ask that question, and
38:53
Speaker 1: that is a really great question. I think I saw
38:59
Speaker 1: two people were extremely powerful. I think one person at
39:04
Speaker 1: lb J has been afforded more experiences because of how
39:10
Speaker 1: he came into the game, Whereas I think that Kevin
39:13
Speaker 1: has been a great basketball player. There's been a lot
39:15
Speaker 1: of focus just on basketball, Whereas recently, over the last
39:18
Speaker 1: couple of years, I think Kevin has really started to
39:20
Speaker 1: branch out because there's also comes with the maturity and
39:23
Speaker 1: acceptance of who you are. I think Katie's gone through
39:26
Speaker 1: that process where he's now at a different place, but
39:29
Speaker 1: it was it was all from a place of love. Now,
39:31
Speaker 1: I'm not saying that when they speed across the line,
39:33
Speaker 1: they don't compete to be the best because they both
39:34
Speaker 1: want to be the best. But this came from something
39:37
Speaker 1: that reminds me of what jay Z says. So jay
39:40
Speaker 1: Z actually came to New York and he did a
39:42
Speaker 1: concert last weekend, and uh, I'm gonna send you to
39:45
Speaker 1: Clipper some because it's great. It talks about he's talking about,
39:49
Speaker 1: you know, as being a African American male or person
39:53
Speaker 1: that you know the government talks about gentrifying, and we're
39:56
Speaker 1: gonna tentify our own hood. And you know how sometimes
39:59
Speaker 1: people have treated a like we're crowds at the end
40:01
Speaker 1: of at the bottom of the barrel, and the cow.
40:03
Speaker 1: First of our place is not at the bottom of
40:04
Speaker 1: the barrel. And secondly, we can climb on top of
40:07
Speaker 1: each other to pull each other out. And I felt
40:10
Speaker 1: that with this conversation, I felt it it was more
40:13
Speaker 1: like a sharing of how we both did it and
40:17
Speaker 1: both people studying each other to build something different. And
40:22
Speaker 1: if that's what you're able to pull out of the conversation,
40:25
Speaker 1: then I did my job, because that's what it's about.
40:27
Speaker 1: It's about teaching our youth and teaching others how they
40:30
Speaker 1: can pull themselves out of that situation. My man, I
40:34
Speaker 1: want to thank you man. I want to thank you
40:36
Speaker 1: brother h You're the same gifted young man admit in
40:39
Speaker 1: the back room or name two point three way back
40:41
Speaker 1: in the l A and I'm a fan today again.
40:44
Speaker 1: You can catch this show the Boardroom ESPN plus. It's
40:47
Speaker 1: exclusively on ESPN J. You officially know that Rashad McDonald
40:52
Speaker 1: is a fan of you. I was looking for a
40:55
Speaker 1: better way to check in in our house while I
40:57
Speaker 1: was at work, and a friend recommended Blank. I was optical,
41:00
Speaker 1: but decided to give it a shot, and I bought
41:02
Speaker 1: a Blink camera system. With our last security system, false alarms,
41:06
Speaker 1: wires everywhere, and monthly fees, we couldn't get out of
41:09
Speaker 1: my bad But our Blink system is different. Their motion
41:11
Speaker 1: activated cameras that work inside and outside, their wire free,
41:15
Speaker 1: easy to set up, and they run on two lithium
41:17
Speaker 1: batteries that last up to two years total. Piece of
41:19
Speaker 1: mind and Blink camera system started under eighty bucks with
41:22
Speaker 1: no subscriptions. We were on vacation and I gotten to
41:25
Speaker 1: learn of my smartphone that motion was detected at our
41:27
Speaker 1: front door. I checked my Blink app and I saw
41:30
Speaker 1: it was just my cool new device being delivered. Hey,
41:33
Speaker 1: we agreed no new devices except Blink. Just kidding, not kidding.
41:36
Speaker 1: With Blink camera system starting under eighty bucks, home security
41:40
Speaker 1: just got easier. Go to Blink Protected, dot COM's lash Secure,
41:45

42:30
Speaker 1: in bills. So we met with this financial advisor who

Speaker 1: found two huge problems unplanned expenses like home repairs and
42:36
Speaker 1: medical bills and credit cards with crazy high interest rates. Anyway,
42:40
Speaker 1: he grafted out a brilliant strategy. If we could get
42:43

42:46
Speaker 1: all our bills and credit cards and still have cash
42:49
Speaker 1: at the end of the month for emergencies and a
42:50
Speaker 1: summer vacation. He suggested best egg dot com for their rates,

43:03
Speaker 1: We got our personal loan, paid off credit card bills,
43:06

Speaker 1: a very Hi. Just Rushan McDonald and you're listening to
43:28
Speaker 1: money making conversations and a show that started two years ago. Uh,
43:31
Speaker 1: it's about two year anniversary and I I just feel
43:36
Speaker 1: fortunate it was. It's a concept that started as a
43:38
Speaker 1: just a promotional tool to extend my brand beyond producing
43:43
Speaker 1: television shows and managing talent because a lot of people
43:46
Speaker 1: have always uh been inspired by my all my advice
43:49
Speaker 1: when I tell them, and I decided to start it
43:52
Speaker 1: on my Facebook page, and it grew from my Facebook
43:54
Speaker 1: page to a radio show and now so serious exam
43:58
Speaker 1: it's on cast and it's blowing up in a lot
44:02
Speaker 1: of positive ways that I didn't expect and not starting
44:04
Speaker 1: to syndicate. My next guest is a person who has
44:07
Speaker 1: been with me from the beginning, live in studio phone
44:11
Speaker 1: calls around the world. She is a five time Grammy
44:14
Speaker 1: Award winning artists who believes that her music heals, encourages,
44:18
Speaker 1: and inspires others to trust more than themselves. She is
44:22
Speaker 1: triumphantly carried the torch for Contemporary Gospel and Inspirational Music
44:27
Speaker 1: for your thirteen glorious albums. She's an incredible single mom,
44:31
Speaker 1: an amazing entrepreneur, a mentor who is filled with the spirit,
44:34
Speaker 1: and blessed with one of the most powerful voices in
44:37
Speaker 1: any music format. This used Houston native. I gotta say
44:40
Speaker 1: houstonative because I'm a Houston native and one time school
44:44
Speaker 1: teacher has been a stately beacon of God's life. Please
44:48
Speaker 1: working the money making conversation. My good friend you're Landa Adams. Hello,
44:55
Speaker 1: Oh my goodness. You know it's always fun to happen.
44:58
Speaker 1: You're on the show. You're like my emotional check up.
45:01
Speaker 1: You know you would I would tell people the other
45:05
Speaker 1: you when you want to be successful, you you don't
45:07
Speaker 1: want to be the smartest person in the room. And
45:09
Speaker 1: my compliment to her is that it's not the ego
45:13
Speaker 1: on me, is that she allows me to understand the
45:16
Speaker 1: value and listening and accepting new information, and so that's
45:21
Speaker 1: important in any circle that you roll into. So when
45:24
Speaker 1: she comes on my show we meet in person, it's
45:26
Speaker 1: always a genuine love and a clear understanding of her
45:30
Speaker 1: value that she gives not only to me to listen
45:33
Speaker 1: to advice on it. If you don't follow, you should
45:35
Speaker 1: follow her on social media. A postal, inspirational hood, a
45:39
Speaker 1: smile iss joyous, joyous. And then when you listen to
45:43
Speaker 1: her sing, you're inspired and sometimes brought the tears because
45:47
Speaker 1: the emotion that she taps into inside. I know God
45:51
Speaker 1: gave you that talent, Ms Adams, but what allows you
45:54
Speaker 1: to promote that talent. Well, here's one of the things
45:58
Speaker 1: that I say about the void. It's um it's fueled
46:04
Speaker 1: by experience, and triumph. So I know exactly what I'm singing.
46:11
Speaker 1: I know exactly uh, the emotion that went into overcoming.
46:17
Speaker 1: And sometimes people want the easy way out when it
46:21
Speaker 1: comes to life. Whether it's business, relationship, family, it doesn't matter.
46:27
Speaker 1: We want the easy way. But the easy way is
46:30
Speaker 1: not the teachable way. Everything you do in your life
46:35
Speaker 1: is going to cost you something. But here's the deal.
46:39
Speaker 1: The cost is far less than the glory afterwards. And
46:47
Speaker 1: so you know that that voice cost me something. It
46:50
Speaker 1: cost me some people. It cost me, uh you know,
46:54
Speaker 1: you know recently, it cost me some family members know
46:58
Speaker 1: through you know, um, through death, its um. It costs
47:04
Speaker 1: some um, some friends. It costs time, It costs rehearsals,
47:11
Speaker 1: It costs a lot that people really don't uh you know,
47:15
Speaker 1: they don't added up. They think that, oh, you just
47:20
Speaker 1: wake up and you sound like that. No, I wake
47:22
Speaker 1: up and I do sound like that. But that's years
47:25
Speaker 1: of being able to do what I do. And then
47:28
Speaker 1: I don't take the privilege lightly. I look at it
47:30
Speaker 1: as a privilege. I told someone yesterday. If you are
47:34
Speaker 1: working in a place or a situation and you don't
47:39
Speaker 1: feel joy, that is not your assignment. You're just going
47:43
Speaker 1: to work. You know, it's really important that or time,
47:46
Speaker 1: I think, and the whole balanced life conversation. I always
47:50
Speaker 1: try to bring to my guests on the show so
47:52
Speaker 1: they can tell me how they deal with it, because
47:54
Speaker 1: she's a very powerful and accomplished single mom and so
47:58
Speaker 1: when that's what the time comes in right there, and
48:01
Speaker 1: being that she's famous, it can intrude onto her daughter's life.
48:06
Speaker 1: And that's very important that people understanding. Like a lot
48:09
Speaker 1: of people they don't understand, there's so many layers to
48:11
Speaker 1: being famous. There's so many layers to having especially with
48:15
Speaker 1: social media, having your life exposed to millions and millions
48:18
Speaker 1: of people can like you or have a comment about
48:21
Speaker 1: how you look or what you're doing and why are
48:23
Speaker 1: you doing it? And so your daughter now is at
48:26
Speaker 1: Howard University. I know there was much stress, much stress. Well,
48:31
Speaker 1: what I told you before, they have to go back
48:33
Speaker 1: to your podcast that we did uh UM in in
48:38
Speaker 1: Houston where uh we talked about that, and I told you, no,
48:41
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna be stressed. I have capital police. You know.
48:51
Speaker 1: The first couple of the first couple of weeks, you know,
48:54
Speaker 1: being in the house by myself and around missing you know,
49:00
Speaker 1: making those fruit plates at night. Uh. It taught me
49:03
Speaker 1: a lot about myself and it taught me, uh to
49:07
Speaker 1: relax and what I had nurtured her to become. M Well,
49:13
Speaker 1: you know it's interesting because you know, I have a daughter,
49:16
Speaker 1: she's twenty one, and she always says she calls me,
49:19
Speaker 1: and if she don't call me for a couple of days,
49:21
Speaker 1: she knows, hey, okay, I call her, said, okay, what's
49:24
Speaker 1: going on there? You know, your dad gotta hear from you,
49:28
Speaker 1: what's going on in your life. And she's doing amazing
49:31
Speaker 1: in colleges with the academics. She's on the on the roll.
49:33
Speaker 1: So she's doing she's living life right. But it's still
49:36
Speaker 1: as a parent, you know, you you know, you just
49:39
Speaker 1: want to make sure your your child has a better
49:41
Speaker 1: life than you have. And also you want them to
49:44
Speaker 1: be secure. You don't want anything to happen to him.
49:46
Speaker 1: And I know that that when you when you we
49:48
Speaker 1: joking talk about these things. But it's all part of
49:50
Speaker 1: being a good parent, and a book good parent will
49:52
Speaker 1: always care, you know, and all you wanna do. All
49:55
Speaker 1: I want to do is my daughter to have a
49:56
Speaker 1: better life than I have. And I don't want her
49:58
Speaker 1: to live my life exactly. Well, that does not mean
50:02
Speaker 1: that we don't FaceTime two or time I give her
50:07
Speaker 1: her space. But yeah, we're gonna be FaceTime. Oh good.
50:12
Speaker 1: So let's let's get to this entrepreneurship, young lady. You
50:15
Speaker 1: know about that making that money while you're sleeping, Now,
50:18
Speaker 1: that's that's the beauty of what you're doing. Absolutely so
50:22
Speaker 1: talking about these are y A handbags that are affordable, classy,
50:26
Speaker 1: elegant for your lifestyle and Soulo online. And first of all,
50:30
Speaker 1: I'm getting little mad with you because now I've not
50:32
Speaker 1: gotten any banners and you know, I'm come a million followers.
50:39
Speaker 1: That's a Ricky Anderson thing, you know. We got Look,
50:42
Speaker 1: we got your banners coming because because you know the
50:45
Speaker 1: thing about it, you know especially I want to do
50:48
Speaker 1: it this week because Mother's Day it's Sunday, So I
50:51
Speaker 1: like to get those banners up on my site this weekend.
50:53
Speaker 1: Then I got a newsletter coming out. It's coming out,
50:57
Speaker 1: and so I wanted to I want to put in
50:58
Speaker 1: the newsletter. I put you in the subject liss I'll
51:00
Speaker 1: put you in the subject line. That sounds good to me.
51:02
Speaker 1: We'll look as soon as I get off the phone
51:04
Speaker 1: with you. I am going to talk to Ricky. I've
51:08
Speaker 1: got good friend Ricky, absolutely, because that's what it's about,
51:11
Speaker 1: relationships and being being an entrepreneur and so as that
51:15
Speaker 1: as that title grows in your life and tell us
51:18
Speaker 1: about these handbags? Wow? Uh, you know, I am so
51:23
Speaker 1: fortunate to be able to um to to create what
51:29
Speaker 1: I love. And I know people ask me all the time, Rashan,
51:34
Speaker 1: what are you wearing? Who are you carrying? Who does
51:37
Speaker 1: your makeup? What kind of makeup? So I started thinking, low,
51:41
Speaker 1: if a hundred people everywhere I go ask me the
51:44
Speaker 1: same question, I have probably ten million women somewhere who
51:50
Speaker 1: would uh pick up whatever I am? You know what
51:54
Speaker 1: I whatever I have on, whatever I'm carrying. And so
51:57
Speaker 1: Ricky and I started talking about accessories because you know,
52:02
Speaker 1: with accessories there's no um, there's no size, so you
52:06
Speaker 1: don't have a lot of returns. Because that's always my thing,
52:11
Speaker 1: what's going to give me the best return on my investment,
52:15
Speaker 1: which will also be applauded by my audience, so they
52:20
Speaker 1: don't return it and say, oh, I didn't like this
52:23
Speaker 1: or it didn't fit me. With the scars, handbags, belts,
52:28
Speaker 1: those kinds of things are so universal every woman needs accessories,
52:34
Speaker 1: and then every man needs to know, well, what can
52:37
Speaker 1: I buy my wife or my girlfriend or my mom
52:40
Speaker 1: that's not going to you know, cost me a grip,
52:43
Speaker 1: as they say. And I worked with the same guy,
52:48
Speaker 1: the same manufacturing company that provides bags for um burged
52:55
Speaker 1: Off and Goodman, also for Bloomingdale, Macys and all of
53:01
Speaker 1: these places. But it is a direct to consumer um
53:07
Speaker 1: uh situation. So you don't have the middleman, you don't
53:11
Speaker 1: have the stock fees, you don't have all of this
53:13
Speaker 1: kind of stuff, which made a whole lot of sense
53:16
Speaker 1: to me because you you know, being in business, that
53:20
Speaker 1: stock fees can go all the way up to a
53:23
Speaker 1: hundred a hundred fifty dollars according to what you're stocking.
53:26
Speaker 1: Oh my god, this is amazing. As always, our interviews
53:29
Speaker 1: are amazing. Again. You owe me a lot of things.
53:33
Speaker 1: You owe me some banners, uh, I know you can
53:36
Speaker 1: for white handbags. You owe me banners for simply yr Landa,
53:39
Speaker 1: your skin care line. You owe me banners for Wake
53:41
Speaker 1: Up with your Landa, your coffee line. And I can't
53:44

54:02
Speaker 1: decided to give it a shot, and I bought a
54:03
Speaker 1: Blink camera system. With our last security system, false alarms,
54:07
Speaker 1: wires everywhere, and monthly fees, we couldn't get out of
