Speaker 1 (00:02):
What would you talk about on your on your podcast
firm Elpresents show. And then we all saw the writing
on the wall, and now we kind of knew. I mean,
I mean, I mean something, are just so obvious and glaring.
You can't have four when it's five, you can't five.

(00:27):
You could try. It's like remember that group five of fighting,
it was one guy. We're talking about Fifth Harmony breaking up. Okay, wait,
we'll not breaking up. Hold on, wait, first of all,
around the table for what is this? What is so
many damn podcast? Scary Nate Me, Danielle Garrett and Berdie yeah,

(00:50):
Berdie stop it. So anyway, today, officially on the Instagram
account of Fifth Harmony, they said that they were taking
a break. They wanted to do some solo stuff. Um
that they know they have some gigs that they have
to fulfill through the end of the year and they
will definitely be there and they will be performing together,
but they wanted to take a break to expand their horizons.

(01:12):
In the background though, in case you don't know, Okay
used to be so he used to be five members.
If you don't know, you know, Camilla Cabello, Camila Cabay,
Oh my god, this is gonna walk out. So Camila
Cabello um Well left the group first. Blah blah blah.

(01:34):
We kind of knew that was about to happen. So
she's doing fantastically well on her own. Then when we
were at jingle Ball um not too long ago, I
noticed I noticed that Normandy was kind of hanging out
by herself and not with the rest of the group,
which I thought was strange. And then she wound up
signing and then one of the other members want up
signing with you know, separate labels and stuff. So the

(01:54):
writing was on the wall in the back. And when
they're talking about stage and I well, as soon as
they were leaving the stage, we saw Normandy Norman, Normandy,
it's no money. She was like thirty steps ahead of everybody.
And then you'll turn to me and she starts poking me.
She's like, scary story, look at this. And then we

(02:16):
were by the elevator and she was running around and
said Normaney, and then she gave me a hug, and
I looked around and because the year before that was Camilla,
she was running around by herself. They'll get back together.
Lots of bands take breaks, like the Beatles V two
They took a break break Backstreet, Ross and Rachel r
on a break. They got back together spoiler they got

(02:37):
back together over and over again. But this is like
relationships to you don't just take a break. This is
a breakup. Yeah, it's one direction. Took a break. Look
what happened there. I think you tell your outside friends
you're on a break, but you tell your immediate friends
you're you're broken up, right, so you don't have to
deal with it. So you're like, oh, we're on a break,
but you have to think about it. It's got to
be a lot of pressure. Like Camilla left. They see

(03:00):
how amazingly well she's doing as a solo artist, you know,
so the pressure is on. You're like, I want that
same fame. Yeah, but you know what, Justin went solo
and the rest of them now Joey for Tone slepting
hot dogs and doing the hair loss commercially one or
maybe two. There's the breakout star from the group. So
Joe announcer for the price is right, is he okay?

(03:23):
Can we just go like and sync? He had to
make millions of dollars? Right? Of course? Where does that go?
Because if you told me today. Yeah, for Tone did
very well with putting his money away and investing and stuff.
If you told me today, like, hey, Nate, you're gonna
be a boy band. You're gonna be in it for
four years. You're not going to be the popular one
that breaks out and gets a solo career. You're gonna

(03:45):
be like the quiet moody one that that does like
the one solo and the song that doesn't get released
as a single. Yeah, exactly, Chris. But you're gonna make
five million dollars and you're gonna be unemployed at the
age of twenty eight or whatever came with that, dude,
I mean, like, sign me up. You can't turn five

(04:05):
million to ten million. It depends on It also depends
on the person, and it also depends on who you
have in your corner putting you in the right direction.
Like thankfully the boys from in Sync, a lot of
them put away their money did very very well. Some
of the other bands didn't do so well. They just
spent it all. But Joey's does other things. He makes

(04:28):
money other ways. He's produces, he doesn't lote. He's got
money coming in. As much as somebody gave me a
five million dollar running head start. I think I would
be able to be okay the rest of my life.
I would take four million of that and try and
invest into something cool, something big, something that could. Yeah.
But if you take four million out of your five

(04:49):
million and invest it and you lose it, you're screwed. You. No,
I'm talking about safe investments like the restaurants he puts
in a conservative money. There's ways to have people manage
your money where you will your wealth will grie. It's
easier to say that now, but if someone hands you

(05:09):
five million dollars, most people go, I have five You're
you're going crazy. Look look at the guy over the
weekend from he used to play for the Celtics, Glenn
d Uh. Yeah, Glenn Davis. They called him big Baby,
made thirty five million dollars. No more than five years ago.
Over the weekend he was arrested for drugs with nine
dollars in cash. Um, yeah, but you know what, but

(05:33):
but but but at that point he blew through thirty
five million dollars. If you didn't throw a blow through
thirty five million dollars outside of what where he was
right now? In life, I mean, people go through it
very quickly. When you get that much money. That's and
I understand there's going to be people where it's the
exception where you get that much money you don't know
what to do that you spend it, you give it
to friends. Somebody comes up and says, hey, I really
want to start this chicken and cheese waffle shop. I mean,

(05:55):
I just need four million dollars. That's all I need
in that. But there's gonna be people where they give
all of their money away. Myself personally, I know I'm
a pretty smart guy. If you give me five million
dollars after working in a boy band for five years,
I could make it work. I could make it work.
I seriously could make it work. Well. I know what
I would. I would buy a little more expensive house

(06:16):
than I have now. Probably buy a car. I've always wanted,
a reasonable car, not like a d car. You treat yourself,
and then the rest I would bank for to live well,
go on vacations, by nice furniture, whatever. But you can't
spend I'm gonna buy three million dollar house and then
you can't do that, and you didn't he have oh
my god money, and then he blew it all too

(06:40):
but but even so a lot of people think if
you win a million dollars on a scratch off, he
has a million dollars. Is a million dollars cash for life?
But but that But so you're telling me, just scare
if you had a million dollars someone gave you a
million dollars on a on a scratch off, you're saying
you could put that away and not even be tempted
and live the same life you do. Now, No, you
have a million dollars, and you would take five hundred

(07:02):
grand of the millions, and I would take that and
I would invest it in conservative as as you were saying,
conservative servatives markets interest. All right, here's an example people
in the mafia, if there was from a from the
TV shows, people people in illegal activities making money in cash. Right,

(07:25):
they always have a job that pays them like sixty
grand a year that they work as a cover. Well, listen,
most of them have what's called a no show job,
where that the union has you to no show. I
guess my point in that is that, Okay, these people know, Okay,
I've got all this money, I gotta keep it secret.
I can't spend it. I've got it though I'm not

(07:46):
gonna spend it, but I've got to have this other
life on the side that could provide for me. I
could do that. Yeah, I could do that. Yeah, you
earn sixty and spend like you make eighty five. Could
you run a garbage truck company? I would love to
run a garbage truck company. Could you drive a cement
I could drive a cement mixer. I could totally do that.
You know, if I cut it up right, did you

(08:07):
have a nephew run an espresso bar while you had
a club behind in the back. You know, it's funny
just talking about this. In Erie, Pennsylvania where I grew up,
big mafia town. All of the Woodchuck mafia, all of
the hot all of the hot dog carts were run
by the mob. Really, because it's a cash business. I

(08:28):
can't tell you any story a Cafaro family or Cafaro film.
You're naming them ship. Maybe the Italians are an eerie
Italians are outside of New York, so if you look,
if you look, here's the rumor. I think this is
an urban legend. I don't think it's true. The Eerie Mall,

(08:48):
the Milk Creek Mall is built in the shape of
a gun, and it's pointed at City Hall because the
Cafarro family put the money behind it. This is the
rumor and built their There's no Google images of the
I'll show you the gun shape, mall. Is it really
gun shape? Mall? Or is it like a lap let?
Me see an aerial of that? Is it cocked? I'm

(09:12):
telling you, guys, quit laughing. Is there is there a
shot topic in it? And like Danielle, Oh my god,
it's a good anything. Oh wow, it's a gun. I'm
telling you that's interesting. That's crazy, man. You gotta be
pretty smart to think about that. How about the shot Hills?
Mall right? What's That's a tough talent here? He had

(09:36):
no idea, mates coming from the mean street. Severie, You
guys made fun taking over that one. What would your
cover all right, let's just say, let's just say you're
trying to hide some money. What would your cover business be? Nate?
Would you sell hot dogs? It's start a nice little
scary what would you I would have to be a
bakery or something business. The Launders? Wait, what was the

(10:02):
question again? So if you're laundering money a pastry shop,
what would be your business like that, you would hide
all the mark definite bakery, laundromat, laundromat, the launder money.
Not even realized that realized I have a shoe repair business,
and then you don't know anything about shoes, you know,
but I would hire someone that does. I think I

(10:22):
would go car wash, car wash, because the cars would
come in and out. I would have places to put
the cash. And then if you know money's coming in
and out, just the compartment in the pizza place, pizza,
definitely pizza. Even then, how would you explain when someone goes, hey,
can I can I charge this? You would have to
be business. You put you put a dollar fee on

(10:44):
the charge. Yeah, a body shop. That's stereotypical, sterotypical, flats fixed,
come on auto. None of us have set us. None
of us have set uspressel barbus one. I'd tell you
the time I delivered pizza to an espresso bar. The

(11:06):
chicken and ribs. Oh my god. So I worked for
a chicken and rib place in my Brooklyn neighborhood. And
there's an avenue that's known for being a place where
you don't want to make anybody angry. Yeah, So so
I was helping out a friend and I was working
out no no, and so I was helping my buddy

(11:27):
out with his chicken and rib place. And I was
delivering chicken and ribs and those big red insulid bags.
You know. I had to make the suction cup sign
on my car. It was facts your money, right. So
I had it delivered to this place that sold espresso
in the front. And when I walked in the door,
a few very large gentleman got up, made me put
the bag on the table. They frisked me. They went

(11:49):
through Yeah, they learned through the bag nature there's nothing
in the bag. Uh, And then took the food in
the back, in the back, back back, and then came
back out and I got a very nice Yeah. How
many did get it was like twenty bucks? Yeah, there's
twenty bucks or whatever was yeah. So uh but yeah,
I got frisked. Wow, I believe it. Yeah. Yeah, you

(12:10):
didn't see anything working in the restaurant. And by the way,
speaking of which, I didn't see nothing. I don't know nothing.
How do you know when I said, Brooklyn, I couldn't
you know what I was thinking. Here, All business comes
through erie. Yeah. By the way, the cafaro is a
very nice family. I just I don't know if they
did the hot tug. I also waited tables once in

(12:31):
an Italian restaurant. They needed that. Someone called me. They said, hey,
this guy know has a restaurant. He destinly needs a waiter.
We've called everyone who works for them. Can you you're
used to be in a restaurant business, can you wait
tables for a day? It's a lot of money. They'll
give you a hundred bucks to start and plus tips.
I was like, yeah, sure, no problem. Only catch don't
spill anything. What do you mean you don't want to

(12:52):

tell me this un till I got there, I should say.
I got in and the manager calls me over. He goes, hey, listen,

lot of money. I was a waiter in a catering
