How many how many investments haven't been so for the.

Speaker 6 (00:46):
Fifth flo congratulations man, you appreciate it. Jack Dorsey too,
Jack Dorsey, you.

Speaker 7 (00:51):
Know it's interesting when you attempt to build something like this,
you don't know what is going to turn into. You
don't know if coach is going to show up. But
it's become a cultural staple.

Speaker 5 (01:01):
Yeah, absolutely, man. Like I said five years ago, it
was an idea and shot he's had. We executed the
first year right through COVID. It was crazy. So to
see where it's at Now we talk about cultural events,
but it's the biggest, biggest business event in the world.
We talk about the amount of people that come through.
When you talk about the list of people, billionaires, entrepreneurs,

(01:21):
you know, everybody from trying to start to get a job.
It's a multitude of a bunch of people coming together
for the same cause.

Speaker 4 (01:29):
Now, every year you do something different within Best Fast.
So what are you guys doing this year that's different?

Speaker 6 (01:34):
Well, we got so we started the pitch competition last year.

Speaker 3 (01:37):
It's water, by the way, that's water.

Speaker 1 (01:41):
We started.

Speaker 6 (01:41):
We started the pitch competition last year rest in peace
to nip We did it in the honor a Nipsey
Hustle and we had his brother, Black Sam. We had
the marathon come and we're refining it this year. You
know Paul Judges, he's like one of the top black
venture capitalists in America based in Atlanta, so we let
him just fully take it over. So it's only for
tech companies this year. One hundred and twenty five thousand dollars.

(02:04):
And then we got two chains. We got Angela Simmons
and we got Jalen Brown as judges. So we wanted
to kind of fine tune it because we know that
tech is the number one everybody talks about ali and
all of that. So it's like we talked about the
problems a lot, let's talk about some solutions. List empower
the next generation of entrepreneurs. We know that capital is
a big problem in our community. John Hope Bryant. So

(02:26):
what we're doing with him is that he's actually going
to be doing on stage mentoring. It's a challenge, like
five entrepreneurs is going to win opportunity to get on
stage with him. They're going to tell him about their
pain points, what's going wrong in their business. He's going
to give him real time feedback, and then the winner
is going to get his mentorship package just valued it
over twenty five thousand. It's like credit is access to capital.
It's like phone calls, the whole thing. So we're doing

(02:48):
that this year.

Speaker 5 (02:49):
We have we got the deal room too, So this
is something that's important especially in our world.

Speaker 2 (02:53):
Like a lot of people come with you ideas and
a lot.

Speaker 5 (02:56):
Of deals go through your team and you can't fulfill
them are and so a lot of people don't have
access to that. And so our thing was like, yo,
if we can create a room with those type of
deals and have it vetted from religate companies inside the.

Speaker 2 (03:08):
World at tech and all other avenues.

Speaker 5 (03:10):
Why not bring that to our audience and let them
see what this is like so they could be part
of those deals as well. So we're trying to stimulate
the economy as many as possible.

Speaker 6 (03:17):
And we got deals in Africa that we're gonna bring
it and we're doing for the first time ever, we're
doing a collaboration comedy show with eighty five South on Thursday.
So you're gonna make it like a whole week So
it starts on Thursday. Is the kickoff comedy show eighty
fiurselfs and Block shout to Jack dorson a who team
at Block. So the weekend is having a concert at
the State has Been Stadium on Thursday. So Block is

(03:39):
cash it. You know, Block owns cash app, so they're
giving away tickets for investments purchasers to get access to
the weekend concert also, so it's like a long list
of different things.

Speaker 7 (03:51):
So's eyl gonna, you know, let Africa take over inst
that what they're talking about.

Speaker 1 (04:00):
It onto it became Africanized.

Speaker 2 (04:06):
The Yellow Fever cars. Ready you know what.

Speaker 5 (04:11):
We want to make sure that we can bridge that
gap and do it in the best way. And so
a lot of people have seen us go to Africa
a few times over the past couple of months, but
we're not going there just as travelers. We're going over
there to see business opportunities, and now we're bringing those
business opportunities back to investmentst and so to.

Speaker 2 (04:25):
Bridge that gap.

Speaker 5 (04:26):
A lot of people go to you know, Ghana and
Nigeria for December to party, but they leave by.

Speaker 7 (04:31):
The way, I'm joking. I think that's the stupidest conversation
in the world.

Speaker 1 (04:33):
I don't know what.

Speaker 6 (04:35):
The crazy thing is that I saw a video when
it was like, Yo, I had a great time when
Janet Jackson was there. We speak of but we spoke
about this they the Africans ran it then when he
had a great time. It's like nothing has really changed.
But like you said, I mean, it's a matter of
really just bridging the gap. It's a lot like I
like vic Mens's content a lot. You follow him, Yeah,
Like he talked a lot about the diaspora wars, and

(04:58):
there's a lot of that going on right now. That's
a lot of division. But Ultimately, it's not helpful to anybody,
Like it's helpful for us to work with the continent,
it's beneficial for people on the continent to work with us.
Like us dividing each other. It's not like we at
the lowest level when it comes to anything as far
as economic empowerment. So we're not really in a position
to fight. We actually going to Africa. We're going to

(05:23):
Benin and then we're going to Iric Coast. We got
invited by the government of Benin. You know, I don't
know if you saw, but they recently see Ira got citizenship. Yes,
so they really want to that's the crazy thing. That's
the crazy thing about Like there's a big notion of
like Africans don't like black people from America. That's not true. Like,
of course you're gonna find one or two people, but

(05:43):
like they like, how can we tap in with y'all,
How can we attract more people, how we can attract
more investment, Like how can we get more tourism? Like
this is something that these governments are actively trying to do.
Ghana did a great job of it, but they're not
the only country. We went to Rwanda, we went to Kenya,
We're going to Benin, we going to Ivory Coach. This
is all invitations from private sector and the public sector

(06:05):
saying like, look, we understand the power that you guys
have in America as far as on the cultural side
and economic side as well, come like work with us,
Like we want to have you guys here. So I
just want to dispel that rumor because that's something that
it has been permeated of, like they don't even like us,
they don't even like Black Americans. Like that's not true.

Speaker 5 (06:25):
It's crazy. So that those trips that he's talking about.
While we were there, people is trying to invite us
to that country. So Uganda was on the South Africa
was on the list. They saw that we were coming
there and they respect us from the platform that we
built in America and they're like, you guys are here
for business and we want people to know that this
business taking place. So when we were in Rwanda, it
was like, wait, we've never even seen this before, right,
nobody's ever talked about Rowanda. All we think about is

(06:46):
the movie that we know from the nineties, and then
you get there. It's to say if this is the
cleanest place and I'm like, wait, how come people don't
know what's happening here?

Speaker 7 (06:52):
Right?

Speaker 2 (06:53):
Then we go to Kenya.

Speaker 5 (06:53):
It's the same thing now, Benin it's that independence that
the President's like, you guys need to come the seatra
thing happened last week. But they're like, I want you
to see what independence state looks like here. I want
you to be a part of it, and I want
you to show people that this business the same thing
in Ivery Coast. This was somebody in the business world
that's like.

Speaker 2 (07:09):
I love these guys.

Speaker 5 (07:10):
Can they come while they're on this side of the
country side of the world. And we're like, of course,
let's do it.

Speaker 6 (07:14):
And mind you, these aren't even English speaking countries. They
speak French.

Speaker 2 (07:17):
Yeah, I've been working on my friends.

Speaker 5 (07:19):
Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, sweet Troy.

Speaker 6 (07:23):
It travels across even language barriers.

Speaker 3 (07:27):
So what do you tell people?

Speaker 4 (07:28):
You know, when I met you, guys whatever, seventy eight
years ago, you all talking about crypto. Right at the time,
I didn't understand it and I wasn't into it, and
it was real low and now it's.

Speaker 3 (07:36):
Through the roof, right, it happens to a lot of us.

Speaker 4 (07:38):
So what do you tell people that are entry level
and saying, what's the next thing that I should be
looking at.

Speaker 3 (07:43):
They're looking towards that is affordable for them.

Speaker 6 (07:46):
I mean, right now, I'll let you talk about but
AI revolution, So we've been talking about in it. AI
is thought the future is right now, and it's only
going to get bigger. You see the number one company
in the world in video five years ago, no nobody
even heard of video. Now they're bigger than Apple, Microsoft, Google, Meta.
What does that tell you? What do they do? They

(08:07):
make computer chips. So it's like you got Taiwan Semiconductor right. Like,
artificial intelligence is not going anywhere. That's another major focus
on it for invest fest. This shit we can't run
from it, we can't hide from it. Like you got
to invest your money in these technology companies. You got
to invest your money in these artificial intelligence companies. Crypto's
not going anywhere either, but AI is literally like, the

(08:31):
world is not even gonna look the same in five
and ten years, It's gonna be completely different.

Speaker 5 (08:34):
This is gonna be the greatest wealth transfer this this
moment in time. We said that last night, this is
the most important time in terms of investing. We've never
seen returns like this. We've never seen a company go
up by five thousand percent. We've never seen a four
trillion dollar company, let alone a three trillion dollar company
in it Like that's happening in this lifetime. As we
talked about it, when we talked five years ago, and

(08:54):
that you asked that question, we told you TSM, We
told you Microsoft because we knew that they were going
to lead and that hasn't changed. And if you look
at how the economy is looking right now, those companies
in video, but the companies that are built around it,
the companies that their partner where they're going to lead
the generation to And so if people are looking to invest,
they should start there.

Speaker 1 (09:13):
Right.

Speaker 2 (09:13):
We already know, right, people use open ai, Well, what
makes it run GPUs? Right?

Speaker 5 (09:18):
Who makes those GPUs? And video makes of AMD? So
we got to invest in those companies. We already know
that we on Instagram and we on Facebook, well matter
owns that we should be involved in that.

Speaker 1 (09:28):
Right.

Speaker 5 (09:28):
If you look at what Mark Zuckerberg's doing, Like quietly
while we're discussing all these other things, he just stole
open ais co.

Speaker 2 (09:36):
Founder, right, recruited, recruited well, paid them a lot.

Speaker 1 (09:42):
Lot of money right out of money. Right.

Speaker 2 (09:43):
That was two weeks after he took Alexander Wayg, who
was the CEO of Scale Ai.

Speaker 5 (09:49):
Right, he took that company, well, and I took made
a deal with them for fourteen billion, right, Like, these
are the things that are happening on our watch. So
we got to be make sure that we're investing in
these companies understanding what they do so we can take
advantage of it, right else not just from a standpoint.

Speaker 6 (10:03):
Also, we went to Silicon Valley, so we actually went
to Nvidia's headquarters and we went to Metas headquarters. Okay,
we go to Metas headquarters, right, we're getting the toy
Day campus. Their campus is crazy. You don't see one
black person there. You hardly don't see any white people there. Chinese, Asian,

(10:24):
Chinese and Indian so much. They said that they have
they have full zoom calls and Mandarin. That's how many
Chinese people work there. So, of course, from an investment standpoint,
we need to invest in tech companies. But from an
educational standpoint, like we like I don't think people fully
understand how far how far behind we are in this situation,
Like we're not even a thought in the process of

(10:47):
like these tech companies, not one. It might be like
one black person in the whole entire department, like three
hundred four hundred people. I'm telling you we sold our
own ours. Hundreds of kids that's twenty two years old,
twenty five, twenty six, all Asian. Every single one of
them is Asian. So it's it's it's a black problem,
but it's an American problem. Like if you look at
the for the first time, I think in twenty years,

(11:08):
America won, like the math Olympics. If you look at
the team, they're all Chinese people Chinese America. They're all
Chinese Americans. Yeah, what does that tell you? Like we're
falling behind so far. Educational system is terrible. And like
I said, it's not just a Black problem, it's an
American problem, Like we're losing the technolo they say in
China six months Chinas already had. I just came back

(11:30):
from China. China's already ten years ahead of us. Like
if we don't catch up soon, it's gonna be very
scary to judge.

Speaker 3 (11:38):
When I was looking at Chinese roads and how they
have their roles and how they deal with the elements
out there where they don't have to.

Speaker 4 (11:44):
They have stuff to shoots on their roads that they
which which is crazy.

Speaker 1 (11:48):
I bother with you.

Speaker 7 (11:49):
I don't know how we catch up, because you know,
this country has like a real sick obsession with celebrity
and they think everything celebrity and entertainment driven is.

Speaker 1 (11:59):
How you get to the money. I don't know how
you change that.

Speaker 6 (12:02):
And dysfunction, political dysfunction is at all time, that's nothing.
These countries can move so quickly because they're all on
one accord. Say what you want about China, like if
they want to do something, everybody's getting behind it. The UA,
everybody's getting behind it. Side there raybeit everybody's behind it America,
like you already know the political discourse that we have
in America. So nothing is done and it's only getting worse,
and then everybody's fighting. And then then you add the

(12:25):
social media addiction. Then you add the junk food, which
makes it hard to concentrate period. Then you add the
education system, the celebrity aspect, and yes, it's a recipe
for disaster, to be honest with you, So yeah, no,
it's going to be difficult. I'm not really sure how
it changes. But we need to really start to think
differently about it, because, like I said, what I saw

(12:46):
in China, like it blew me away, like the stuff
that they're doing and what they're planning, like we're not
even thinking, We're just trying to just get through the day.
You saw over them, Well, I saw the face scan.
That was pretty cool. I think that they have the
hand scan in America, but like a lot the face
skin is is like everywhere, meaning like you you go
to a gas station whatever, you get the water, and

(13:07):
you just I'm talking to the clerk, I just look
and just check out. And the first time she did it,
I'm like, what they do and they like, they just
scan my eyeballs, so they the bank account information is
placed in like your eyeball, bank account information is all
placed together. So you just so we were going to
live in the world soon where you don't need a
while you don't need it, you might not even need
a phone, so you just go and like the Amazon

(13:28):
ghost store, now they have that through the like they
can bring it up, but now they just looking at
your eyeball and so.

Speaker 8 (13:35):
So yeah, I was gonna say, what do they do,
Like how what about your eyeball pays for.

Speaker 6 (13:40):
It's like a personal ID.

Speaker 2 (13:41):
So like you know you do it now, you just
don't realize it. You go through Claire, what do.

Speaker 6 (13:45):
You do look at it, identify how much money you
or you just link it. You just link it with
a car.

Speaker 4 (13:52):
It's like having your phone. It's like having your phone.
You can still get the client.

Speaker 3 (13:55):
They can look at your eyes.

Speaker 1 (13:59):
They broke in the eyeball.

Speaker 2 (14:04):
It sound futuristic till you realize you've been doing it
this whole time.

Speaker 5 (14:06):
Right, Like when you go to the Amazon Store and
we talking about AI, that's AI, right, there's cameras in
the ceiling that are scanning you put your card in
when you walk in, and you think you're walking out,
and then you get the email that wait, you just
got charge one hundred and sixteen to OUs of what
you just bought, and it's like, wait, how do they
do that?

Speaker 4 (14:19):
But people are scared of that. A lot of people
are scared of that. And do you what do you
say to them? You know, people think it's taking jobs.
Like you said, the Amazon store, there's nobody. There's one
guy working in and make sure people just don't run out.
But besides that, there's nobody ringing you up. There's nobody
doing anything like that, and people are thinking that it's
taking jobs, it's taking opportunity, it's taking their future away.

Speaker 3 (14:36):
So what do you say to that.

Speaker 5 (14:37):
I say, we got to get educated on it, right,
Like I grew up in an education system where it
was like learn mander and learn manner. That's what they
were telling kids when I was teaching then, it was
like they should learn code and they shoul learn crollon.
And it's like, well there's a prompt now to do that,
you know what I'm saying. And so like we get
to realize that AI is not our enemy, it's our copilot.
And so if we think about it, like we'll still
find a plane, but this is going to help us.

Speaker 2 (14:57):
The people that will work with it and understand it
will go go ahead.

Speaker 5 (15:00):
The people who try to deny it and be afraid
of it, it's gonna be tough for them to succeed
because you're battling super intelligence. You're talking about something that's
super efficient, that never stops working, that's always getting better,
that never gets tired, that doesn't need any you know,
PTO or insurance.

Speaker 3 (15:15):
It's no man.

Speaker 5 (15:17):
No maternity all and it's only getting better. If it
makes a mistakes, it gets better, right, So how do
you compete with that? You don't you join it?

Speaker 4 (15:24):
Do we go back to the days of forcing our
kids to do things? Like you remember growing up as
a kids, your parents forced you to You're gonna take
You're gonna be an attorney, You're gonna be a lawyer,
you're gonna be a doctor.

Speaker 3 (15:34):
Nowadays these kids are like the smartest.

Speaker 5 (15:36):
One though, But that's the thing, right The value add
is like who's the smartest one? Do you have to
be the smartest one or could you just be the
person that understands that I need to use this because,
like you said, like a lawyer, it's interesting right Like
right now, if I go to Anthropica, I'll go to
chat GBT and I get, you know, documents from a
law office. I'll say it like, hey, I want you
to attack this case the way that's disfirmed it and

(15:58):
in five minutes is going to understand exactly how the
firm the tax case if it's a prosecutor, and defend it.

Speaker 2 (16:03):
And now I got a hold for twenty nine dollars
a month, Well.

Speaker 1 (16:05):
That's what the thing.

Speaker 8 (16:07):
But that's what I'm saying though, even if we looking
at it, not looking at it like it's our enemy,
what the hell we gonna do their jobs?

Speaker 2 (16:15):
Like what do we?

Speaker 6 (16:17):
And you can't sugarcoat it's about it's gonna get real
scary from schooky hours because it's like, all right, technology
are always replaces low skilled labor. Right, So before you're
from Baltimore ran yep, okay, you're from New York. So
you remember back in the days when you used to
go over any bridge in New York, people there, right,
and they have to give them five dollars, they give

(16:37):
you two hundred two dollars fifty cent back. Those were jobs.

Speaker 2 (16:40):
Yep.

Speaker 6 (16:42):
There's nobody working those jobs anymore. Right, So that's the
way that that's that's how technology replaced jobs. But people
will look at it like, okay, that's low skilled labor,
or like cashiers, but you just ripped cashiers. Now most
stores have like maybe one cashier, but most of it
is self checkout. Some store don't have any cashier. But
now we're going to start to see high skilled job

(17:03):
being replaced, like he said, lawyers, doctors. We was in Africa, Kalise,
We was in Kenya, Kalise's youngest son is getting taught
by AI too, school fully fully AI. So now you
got education that's about to get replaced. You got a doctors, lawyers,
these engineers, like this is very high skilled jobs that

(17:25):
people go and pay hundreds of thousands of dollars for
their degree. So now you're not only getting low skilled
replace you're getting high skilled replaced too. So save your money,
invest your money. Like if I can give anybody advice
right now, like you gotta invest your money, and you
gotta have you got to almost you got to be
an entrepreneur on a certain level, right because just relying

(17:46):
on a job and a skill set, there's no job
that's safe, even this job they having AI people that's
doing podcasts. So the whole series very soon, it's going
to be so good that you might not even know
that it's the AI. And so invest your money crypto
tech stocks like start now. Like entrepreneurship vitally important. That's

(18:09):
even more important than the skill set because you could
learn technology is not that hard to learn, that's the
good thing about it. But if you don't have a business,
you don't have cash flow, like it's going it's going
to be very, very difficult.

Speaker 1 (18:20):
Let me ask you about this.

Speaker 7 (18:21):
You know, they're talking about the contracted economy and they
say that's going to reach two point five trillion this
year alone, and they say ai AI is coming for
the coders, that electricians, and well just the Black Rock
CEO says, we need a half a million electricians over
the next few years.

Speaker 1 (18:36):
What do you think about that?

Speaker 6 (18:38):
Yeah, we do, we do electricians.

Speaker 1 (18:41):
The massive shortage of skills like but.

Speaker 6 (18:43):
Even that, that's true, but you need to be an entrepreneur.
But people that got but I'm saying some a lot
of people don't look at it like that. They'll go
into it saying like I want to be a plumber
and I want to work for a plumbing companies.

Speaker 1 (18:59):
Own woman company.

Speaker 6 (19:00):
But yeah, no, that's still needed for now. But yeah,
but I think.

Speaker 1 (19:04):
That's gonna be a way.

Speaker 7 (19:06):
That's gonna be a way to reach black people because
black people understand that. So when you start talking those
kinds of numbers and letting people know like skilled label,
you know, the contracting economy is a two point five
trillion dollar business and we need a half a million
more of those over the next few years.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
That's something they understand. They may not understand the AI conversation.

Speaker 6 (19:24):
That's insightful. We don't have time to keep you got
to catch up. You don't understand, you got to catch up.
I understand. I respect laborers, but black people can do
more than just being a laborer. No, it is nothing
wrong with it. But why we always relegated to the
blast of black jobs. That's what Trump was all about
black jobs, right, Like, no, we need to we need
to do that, but we need to be playing at
the highest level possible.

Speaker 2 (19:45):
That's why we need.

Speaker 6 (19:46):
To be starting tech companies. We can't just say, okay,
this is what we know, this is what we can
relate to that. All right, you're not gonna become it's
super rich being a plumber. Let's just be honest. It's
nothing wrong with that.

Speaker 1 (19:57):
But unless you start a plumbing company and you got
the contract for this bad.

Speaker 5 (20:00):
But how many you don't have a billion dollar evaluation,
a billion dollar exit.

Speaker 6 (20:05):
It's happening like when okay, so when Mark Cuban says
that there's going to be trillionaire started in the basement, right, like,
you're talking about companies that's going to reach one hundred
million dollar valuations. In six months, like real quick. We
got to get in on this. That's why we're doing
the tech giveaway. As far as at Investmentest, like yes,
but we can't just we've been in this country for

(20:27):
too long. We gotta play quick, quick, catch up. We
can't play okay, now, we got fifty years to catch up.
We're going to start at this level. I'm telling you,
if we're playing that game and fifty years, it's going
to be.

Speaker 1 (20:37):
I agree with you, and that's what I love talking
to y'all.

Speaker 7 (20:39):
But if the black Rock CEO is saying that a
two trillion dollar wealth shift is coming because of the
contractor economy, and he and we already I always encourage
people to go to trade school.

Speaker 2 (20:49):
You're talking about, Larry, You think, right, it's needed. Yeah,
it's needed. I get what you it's needed, right.

Speaker 5 (20:54):
But a lot of these guys life they shout out
to black Ron part that Investest the largest asset manager
company in the world over thirteen training assets. Right, that's
cool if you want to keep it. But we're trying
to get people to sustainable wealth.

Speaker 2 (21:07):
Right.

Speaker 5 (21:08):
We're talking about life changing, generational changing, and that's why
it's important to talk about technology because we've over indexed
in some of these professions. We know that, right, Like
my uncle's a plumber, Yo, my cousin does age that,
but I don't know anybody that has an AI startup, right, Like.

Speaker 2 (21:23):
We have to be in that.

Speaker 5 (21:24):
We're talking about these prompts that they're not being created
by us. In fact, the data centers that are being built,
they're not being built by us either.

Speaker 2 (21:31):
Right.

Speaker 5 (21:31):
So when we're talking about discrimination in this world, imagine
when it gets to that world and it doesn't care
and there is nobody to answer that call and you
can't complain about it.

Speaker 2 (21:40):
Right, we got to be inside that.

Speaker 5 (21:41):
We got to be creative, We got to be innovative
to have something, right because we keep seeing it.

Speaker 2 (21:45):
We watch Vine and Facebook.

Speaker 5 (21:47):
We made all these things popular, Instagram popular, TikTok popular.

Speaker 2 (21:53):
Nothing is us. We got to be in that conversation.

Speaker 7 (21:56):
Another thing too, right, And we have these conversations, say,
you know, we about to see these trillion dollar companies, right,
like we haven't seen a trillionaire yet.

Speaker 1 (22:05):
Everybody not gonna be a trillionaire. No, everybody not gonna
be a billionaire. Everybody not gonna be a multimillionaire. There
is gonna have to be some hundred thousands, you know
what I'm saying.

Speaker 7 (22:13):
So I guess the question what does generational wealth look like?

Speaker 1 (22:16):
Because that should be subjective.

Speaker 6 (22:17):
Well, it starts with companies, and like Jensen Want, who
was the CEO of in Video, he said he said,
I made more millionaires than any company I'm paraphrasing, So
he's obviously a billionaire. His companies were four trillion. But
there's thousands of people that working in video that became
millionaires or one million, two million, three million, four million.

(22:39):
So look at the economic impact, That's what I'm saying.
As far as the entrepreneur, we can see it even
on the like us personally, we employed thirty people, right,
So I'm always gonna hammer Like Dame Dash wasn't wrong
in what he said the delivery. I think the way
that he went about it was was But that interview
still resonates to this day because because we don't own

(23:01):
enough businesses, we don't. So as far as generational wealth,
a lot of times that's just a catchphrase. It don't
mean nothing, Like what does that even mean? Generational wealth? Like,
generational wealth is having sustainable businesses that you're employing people,
and you can pass something down and you have an
ecosystem and this shit is flowing NonStop. Not just Okay,
I made a bunch of money, because nine times out

(23:21):
of ten, you're either gonna end up blowing it, you
gonnat get divorced and lose it, or your kid is
gonna blow it. So but if it's a system in
place and you can actually employ people and you can
actually have things that's actually moving the ecosystem the right way,
that's that's more beneficial than one person becoming extremely successful.

Speaker 4 (23:42):
Now what I said, I look at generational wealth as
freedom though it's not just amount of money you make.

Speaker 2 (23:46):
Right.

Speaker 4 (23:47):
You look at some people who might only make one
hundred thousand dollars or two hundred thousand dollars, a lot
of money, it is, but they're happy. They're happy in
that person that makes ten million dollars. Then happen in
that person that makes twenty million dollars, but they able
to make sure their family is good for generations for
that level. But it's happiness because at the end of
the day, after money, I just want my kids to

(24:08):
be happy.

Speaker 3 (24:09):
I don't want them to be stressed out. I don't
want to worry about it.

Speaker 4 (24:11):
I just want them to be happy and live the
way that they want to live. If they want to
do nails, I want them to do nails because at
the end of the day, life is short.

Speaker 7 (24:16):
You just want them to be happy, but you do
want to encourage them to own that's exactly a lot
of money.

Speaker 6 (24:21):
Yes, you know, it's not a lot of money, but
it's a lot of money. What you said, people listening
to us in New York City and New York City.

Speaker 1 (24:31):
Yes, but the people listening to us who don't have
no years, you're not.

Speaker 6 (24:35):
It's not it's not to discourage somebody, but it's also
to be realistic, you know, you you know it's not
you know, I know it's not a lot of money.

Speaker 1 (24:44):
Granted, a lot of money. I mean it's a lot
of money to somebody, a lot of being of America.

Speaker 5 (24:52):
If you make a hundred thousand dollars a year in
New York you're coming home with sixty seven thousand dollars.

Speaker 1 (24:56):
It's a lot of money.

Speaker 6 (24:58):
It's not a lot of money. You know. There wasn't
a lot of money when I made a hundred thousand.

Speaker 8 (25:02):
Dollars, Okay, So I can relate to that part, you know,
like before I even made my first hundred thousand, and
I'm like, ah, no, same, Like it's easy to do.
When I did it, I'm all right, now, what's five
hundred thousand?

Speaker 1 (25:13):
All right?

Speaker 3 (25:14):
You know what I mean?

Speaker 8 (25:14):
So, yeah, it's one hundred thousand dollars is a lot
of money to certain people, but not to me because
of my expenses.

Speaker 1 (25:22):
And shit that I'm doing.

Speaker 2 (25:24):
I get that, Like my lifestyle is.

Speaker 5 (25:26):
Not back to what you're saying though, at everybody? Is
that sustainable?

Speaker 1 (25:30):
Right?

Speaker 5 (25:30):
If I make one hundred thousand dollars a year, can
I create a lifestyle that's sustainable for my family going forward?

Speaker 1 (25:35):
No, you can't live. It depends because you're probably keeping food.

Speaker 7 (25:38):
You're probably keeping food on the table and a roof
over your head, and you live in check.

Speaker 5 (25:42):
And my kids gonna have to do the same thing,
and then their kids gonna to do the same thing.
That's not sustainable because they're gonna Right, there's no guarantee
like my parents.

Speaker 2 (25:49):
My dad did that right, Like he.

Speaker 5 (25:50):
Worked for forty two years, right, it guarantees me nothing.
He spent more time at work than he did at home.
He didn't come to my basketball games because he had
to work. Right, He's weekend sometimes going to work when
I turn eighteen. He didn't guarantee me an interview at
his job. They didn't guarantee me that I keep it
walking the building.

Speaker 1 (26:07):
Would you good at basketball? Wow?

Speaker 2 (26:16):
Support from Jamaica. Man, we only got Patrick.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
To play. You want to play basketball.

Speaker 2 (26:31):
I'm not supporting.

Speaker 6 (26:35):
I'm not.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
If he's not a bowler, I'm not going.

Speaker 5 (26:39):
But you understand that that premise is like, now I
have to go figure out what I'm gonna do right.
I can't do his career. I gottaigure out what I'm
gonna do right. My goal was to make sure that
if I had something, I can pass it do the
same thing. You've always talked about saying everybody here is
doing it. We're not being candid about it, like we
have to tell him, like, look, I'm trying to create
something that's sustainable. I could pass it down to you.

(26:59):
You may not even want to do that, right, Like
the plumber. Right, you've watched your dad be a plumber
work hard. You're like, I don't want to do that.
A lot of kids grow up like I don't want
to do that. They in the tech world. They want
to figure out how they can use technology to advance
their careers. Right, so we got to, hey, here's some
assets to flourish your dream whatever it is, rather than
don't figure it out on your own. I know I
did announce your turn.

Speaker 8 (27:20):
So for my son, my son is thirteen, my son
wants to get into tech, Where does he even start
with that?

Speaker 2 (27:28):
What's his interest right now? Is he into social media?

Speaker 1 (27:31):
Is he is he into gaming software?

Speaker 8 (27:33):
He likes he wants to, like, you know, like the
STEM programs and all that type of stuff.

Speaker 7 (27:37):
But if we're so.

Speaker 8 (27:39):
Fucking behind already, like, how like where would he even
start with that?

Speaker 6 (27:44):
Well, the good thing is that we are behind, but
you can catch up quick with technology. Nip had a
great quote when he was like, technology hasn't powered everybody,
and it's kind of level with the playing field, even
though the playing field has never been leveled. But still
all right, so you just start with the basics. I
was like, I feel like New York City band chat GBT,
dumb decision. Hopefully if we get a new mayor, we

(28:06):
can have some level of voicing as far as its education.
Why did they mant because kids, it is cheap they say, kids'
is gonna be cheating on the on the essays and
using the g But my thing is, why are you
trying to ban But okay, this is my thing right? True?
Math math?

Speaker 1 (28:22):
Right?

Speaker 6 (28:23):
How I learned math, how everybody learns math is that
you do it with a pen and paper and you
do long division. Okay, never in life are you ever
going to have to do that a lot of times
if you use the calculator, you was cheating. So when
I became a financial advisor, I had to use a
financial calculator and I had to learn how to use
a financial calculator. Financial calculator is different from a regular calculator.

(28:43):
My thing is that that would have been helpful for
me to learn how to use a calculator, more so
than learning how to use long division. Now it's gonna
be some people like, well that helps you think and
cognitive thinking skills da da da da not needed. And
I noticed for a fact, because I worked in finance
for twelve years, I never did I never did math
equations with my hand. I only did math equations with

(29:03):
a calculator. It would be more beneficial to teach children
how to do math with calculators, because that's what they're
going to do in real world. It would be more
beneficial to embrace chat GBT and teach kids how to
use chat GBT and how to prompt right. And this
is basic things that you could just do on your phone,
how to use gronk, how to use because it's not
going anywhere. So you're trying to teach a kid how

(29:24):
to actually write an essay. Well, when in life are
you going to need to write an essay?

Speaker 1 (29:31):
Right?

Speaker 6 (29:31):
Because I just wrote something just now and I fragment thoughts,
I put it in chat GBT and I say fix it,
and it puts together a well written train of thought.

Speaker 5 (29:40):
That's the idea of the teacher that works with it's
going to get ahead because what happens when you banned
something more kids gonna use it. Right, It's like yo,
you should small kids gonna smoke, We're gonna prohibit alcohol.

Speaker 2 (29:51):
What happens.

Speaker 5 (29:52):
People are going to do what they're told not to do,
and so we got to figure out how we work
with it. The problem is, and I come from education
feel where it's like we feel threatened. Right, if it
checks the work and if it can have corrective census formation,
Then what am I supposed to do a lot.

Speaker 7 (30:08):
Of people say that, you know, they're afraid that it's
gonna mess with their cognitive ability. So I agree with
with shad Is saying, just teach people how to use
their brain to prompt the chat GPT, work alongside with it,
work with it, assistant, like, don't.

Speaker 1 (30:19):
Let it do the work for you.

Speaker 4 (30:21):
Yeah, but that's the problems, right, Like if you give
any kid homework, right and they know they have chat
GPT nine times out of ten, if their parents are
not over them, they're gonna put that thing in the
chat GPT and it's gonna come up with the answer.

Speaker 6 (30:33):
But that's not necessarily a bad thing.

Speaker 3 (30:37):
Yeah, I don't have to think anymore.

Speaker 4 (30:38):
What I have to do is put the question in
hands it and I'm not even the homework.

Speaker 5 (30:43):
Is to reinforce what was learned in school, correct, right,
Like at a certain point are you still checking homework.

Speaker 2 (30:49):
Such a good I'm not masthing my wife does exactly.
It's like at a.

Speaker 5 (30:56):
Certain point, like what they learned in school is reinforced
at home. But if the kids are like, let's teach
them more things, Like I always tell learning doesn't stop
in the four walls of a building. Let's teach them
about other things that you learn that in school. Let's
add to it, let's figure out how we use it.
That's why we got to teach them how to use AI.
That's why we got to teach them how to prompt
because we know that's where this is going, right. We

(31:18):
got to teach them like, if they're gaming, what's making
the graphics that good? Now I can tell there's a
segue there that if I'm paying for roebucks, let me
tell them how they can invest in that. What's new,
what's coming on roebucks in the next three months. It's
the same thing when I look at Netflix. Right, while
I'm investing Netflix, I look at what the rollout is
for the next three months, six months, or they got
the crowfit right okay, or they got the NFL contract.

(31:39):
I bet this is a company I can see sustainability in.
We got to have seguys and relatability to the real world.

Speaker 1 (31:46):
Y'all bought up dame. That's and I always say, why
do you.

Speaker 2 (31:48):
Look at us like that?

Speaker 8 (31:49):
Just because I'm just thinking, I'm thinking about it now.
You just really don't realize how much we use AI,
we consume it because y'all, I got a homeboy who
uses chat GPT to communicate his feelings with his girlfriend.
Like seriously, he's not really good with expressing himself with

(32:14):
childhood or whatever Showerhood's like he's just not able to
express himself. So like his girl was about to leave
him for that, Like yo, like you're not intimate or
I mean, you're not affectionate with me, Like you don't
express And he downloaded chet GPT.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
That saved his fucking relationship.

Speaker 8 (32:33):
Like he expresses himself to her and it's teaching him.
And it's like his best friend like he talked to this,
My best friend got Bible studied with jet chat CHPT, Like.

Speaker 5 (32:44):
It's crazy that that's the agentic AI is the next
wave right where it's like, yeah, you have a.

Speaker 2 (32:49):
Phone agentic right, So it's an agent.

Speaker 5 (32:51):
Everybody has an agent that you work with so to
express your feelings, to help you out to be a companion.

Speaker 2 (32:57):
Like you ever seen a movie her?

Speaker 5 (32:59):
Yeah, you already know we're headed with this, right, Like
that relationship piece is crazy.

Speaker 2 (33:04):
You want to talk about the thirdy part?

Speaker 6 (33:06):
When we went to when we went to a video,
we heard Jensen gave his keynote, so he was saying, like,
right now, AI is pretty much like, Okay, let's say
you have your family coming over for Thanksgiving dinner, right,
and you list eight names and you give it to
chat GBT and you like, put these names, sort it
out right. So they'll say, okay, Uncle Johnny says here,

(33:28):
little Nazia says here. They all just it's just like
not really too much thought into it. They're just putting
it together. The next level of AI, you'll say, they'll say,
asks me more, tell me more information. Okay, well he
has a drinking problem. Da. They start to make rational
decisions like okay, well I think it's best suited if

(33:50):
you have Charlemagne on this side of the table and
Aunt Jackie on that side of the table. Reason being
is because last thanks Given they had an argument dad.
So that's the next iteration of AI is with is
it's actually having rational thought. AI can't really have rational
thought right now. It can tell you like, okay, write
a sentimental poem. It'll write a sentimental poem, but if
you ask it too much in depth questions, it's not

(34:12):
going to be able to fully process it. The next
level of AI is like, that's what separates humans is
that we have rational thought, right, and empathy and empathy
and reasoning. So now all of that is going to
be combined into AI. So that's the real level of companion.
That's a real companion, right when you can actually you can,
you can have empathy, sympathy, you can reason, you can

(34:33):
raise your voice if necessary, you can. And the other
part that's coming is the physical robotics. So it's crazy
because we are looking at a situation where potentially people
will start choosing companions that are not humans. That's something

(34:57):
that it may sound like a far far reality, but
they're already working on that because think about how many
people have social anxiety. Think about how many kids after
COVID still don't know how to talk to Like you said,
like a lot of people scared to talk to girls,
are scared to talk to men. They don't want to
leave their home. If you can have the perfect person
that you designed by the way, you design how they look,
you design how they talk to, you can design the interaction.

(35:21):
Anything that they make in a movie is a preview
what's going to happen in the future. So they already
had these in the movies twenty years ago. Right, So
now when you start to see, okay, it starts with
a dog, it starts with a pet, like this is
my pet, then this is my assistant. Now the next
thing is this is my wife. It's crazy. This is
why we have to be involved in it because if

(35:42):
not like Ai, this is the first time in human
history where we've created something that's smarter than us. How
can you control it? And everybody that's smart says it,
like Elon Muss, All of these people are saying the
same thing, like they don't really know how far AI
is going to go because it's smarter than us. Imagine
if your dog was one hundred times I'm smarter than you,
would you feel comfortable having it next to you?

Speaker 1 (36:04):
The way the ones programming it right always just unplugged.

Speaker 2 (36:07):
But it's not.

Speaker 5 (36:08):
It's not an unplugged when you're talking about so like
that data center economy, right, these huge, big factories that
they're building.

Speaker 2 (36:15):
Each one of those factories right has one.

Speaker 5 (36:18):
Hundred to two hundred and three hundred supercomputers inside, so
one supercomputer smarter than us already. It ain't as simple
as an unplugged right, like that's that's what happens. Like
people don't understand how this works. When you send the prompt,
it goes through the Wi Fi and the cloud and
it gets to that data center and it comes.

Speaker 2 (36:33):
Back with the prompt.

Speaker 5 (36:34):
Those supercomputers are always working twenty four hours a day,
seven days a week, and it's getting smarter every single second.

Speaker 1 (36:41):
They're already rebelling, Yeah, they had God.

Speaker 6 (36:45):
They tried to extort the God.

Speaker 1 (36:46):
You've seen that he's reveal your affair.

Speaker 5 (36:49):
Yeah, yeah, and that was a test run, but that
could happen. You give it your text, like if you
had a test conversation right now, like what your friend did,
and you sent that into a GBT and said like, hey,
how do you think my reasoning was here?

Speaker 2 (37:01):
Right?

Speaker 5 (37:01):
How did did you think I was aggressive? It's going
to give you a logistic understanding of the conversation and
give you feedbacks.

Speaker 6 (37:09):
Sam Altman already said anything that you say the chat
GBT can be used against you, like technology can tell
the cops, like you know, he told me that he
committed this crime. Expart, Like you're talking to chat GBT,
you telling them information. You're not thinking that you're talking
to something that actually has the ability to tell on you.
He said it like, yes, don't tell chat GBT something

(37:31):
that you don't want something somebody else to know.

Speaker 7 (37:33):
And that shit is scared because I was already I
was thinking exactly what you said, and I was going
to say the whole thing about Sam Altman. So just think,
just think about how brain like, and think about when
you be on your phone sometime and you talking and
you look at your phone and all this is making us,
but just one hundred times better.

Speaker 4 (37:49):
Think about the stupid stuff we do, like how can
I make a bomb through chat GBT?

Speaker 3 (38:00):
Go to learn that, like, yeah, how do I bury
in person?

Speaker 2 (38:02):
Or how do I what somebody?

Speaker 5 (38:08):
You know, we sat in rooms. I won't say what
we sat in rooms. And they're talking about just that, right.
So there's the sensored version of AI, which is what
the public gets, and then you have the uncensored version
of AI, which is what the hedge funds and the
creators and the developers get, so they can stop that
from happening. But who's the control the right right question.

(38:29):
That's why we got to be in the room. And
that example was the exact example.

Speaker 6 (38:33):
What you like if you ask GPT how to create
a bomb, it'll the virtue from But he's like, I
have access to the unchecked filter. So if I wanted
to ask how to create a bomb, it'll give me
a detailed explanation of how to create a bomb.

Speaker 7 (38:48):
Will be like, yo, I'm I can't help you, right
because they have But think about this, but even ghost guns, right,
you can go to micro center, buy a machine and
go to a gun shop and buy the actual parts
in printed.

Speaker 4 (39:01):
That simple, which is ridiculous, and there's nobody to stop
you from doing it.

Speaker 1 (39:06):
That's crazy. Would y'all get the chip? Like the new
links can?

Speaker 7 (39:09):
Think about it? Like, there's gonna be people out here
that are doing that. They're gonna be smarter than us.
You know, they're gonna be able to break things down
faster than us in order to keep up. If you
know that majority of the population is getting this NEURALNK
or whatever it's gonna be. And you know, we grew
up in the era where they we was mean chips,
put chips into babies and all that we was against that.

Speaker 1 (39:28):
Would you do that?

Speaker 6 (39:29):
Would you do it?

Speaker 3 (39:30):
I don't know.

Speaker 1 (39:31):
I really don't know.

Speaker 8 (39:32):
That's my answer as well. I don't know if you
heard about it, I'm like, hell no. But then with
all the movies I'm watching, ship everything that they're clearly
putting in front of us because they know we just
gonna think it's a movie. No no, no, Like I
really don't know.

Speaker 7 (39:47):
They got the glasses, now, they got the prompters and
them people.

Speaker 1 (39:50):
You know, you can be debating with somebody and they.

Speaker 6 (39:53):
The normal thing is so interesting because it's like the
people that don't know that's Elon Musk's company, and they
already have paraplegics that can that can move now people
moving chess pieces with their brain. So my thing is
like even for languages, right, like imagine if you can
download every single language in your brain. So you go
to France and now you speak fluent French. That's helpful.

(40:15):
Or you go to you know, Mexico and now you
speak fluent Spanish, right like yes, I know, but also imagine, okay,
like what if something what if it what if it
gets hacked? Yeah, that's why I wouldn't do it, because

(40:35):
I'll be too nervous, like if it gets hacked. And
now it's telling me, okay, you must do this, you
must like what.

Speaker 1 (40:41):
I'm saying.

Speaker 2 (40:43):
A joke, Jesus Christ, good question. You know.

Speaker 5 (40:49):
Question, it's tough because they just developed the model that
actually can charge his battery by itself, so that was
part of the Yeah, it's crazy.

Speaker 2 (40:58):
So like the robotics, like obviously.

Speaker 5 (41:00):
Elon's trying to do, but China's doing it as well.
Is like the robotic agent that comes in And even
in the video they were saying like, yo, this is
the way they're going to have. It's going to start
in your house and it's going to do chores.

Speaker 2 (41:08):
And things that you don't want to do. But eventually
they'll take over.

Speaker 5 (41:11):
But the one thing that we still have to do
is that the robot would die and we have to
put it back on the charging. But then now they
have the technology where actually you put the charge in
your house and it walks down the steps and it
pulls the battery off, puts it back in, and then
when it's done, it comes back out.

Speaker 2 (41:25):
Think about it.

Speaker 3 (41:26):
They've been doing that for years with the little vacuum
and it goes right back.

Speaker 2 (41:32):
Test run.

Speaker 6 (41:35):
Him, Oh yeah, so when last time I saw him,
he said, do y'all have AI personal assistant? And like no,
he was like, first of all, you need to have one.
It's mandatory. And he was like, I'll sell you one.
And that's all he kept talking about, was like, you
gotta have an AI AI agent. You have to have

(41:55):
an AI agent. Like the way he was pushing it.

Speaker 1 (41:57):
I'm like, okay, what is the AI agent?

Speaker 6 (42:00):
Like a personal.

Speaker 5 (42:03):
It might start as a device, right that you can
clip onto you, right, and you can talk to that
agent like, Hey, I'm hungry, is there anything in my fridge?

Speaker 2 (42:10):
You know what you left me? It'll know.

Speaker 1 (42:13):
I get that. I'm asking how did this? I know?
The agent is.

Speaker 2 (42:16):
The first of way.

Speaker 6 (42:16):
It seems like it was a robot, but now it's not.
But that's the next iteration of it. But yeah, it's
like a clip on a device or whatever. And it's like, okay,
right now, I want to go to Thailand next week, right,
but I can't leave in the morning. I gotta leave
at night. But I also need to stay at a
hotel that's close to the beach, and I need to
have a restaurant. And I mean you to have a
reservation at Nobool. The same thing you were telling assistant.

(42:39):
The AI is gonna be to do that in two minutes.
It's gonna book you hotell them, it's gonna get the reservation.
It's going to do that. It's going to do that.
It's going it's going to notify your child's teacher that
you won't be able to pick them up from school.
It's going to pretty much manage your life.

Speaker 3 (42:53):
To pay it.

Speaker 8 (42:54):
Because I paid somebody to do all that right now.

Speaker 5 (43:00):
Is probably gonna be morefficient than the person PA a
lot less than you would have to pay a person.

Speaker 1 (43:04):
The trust you.

Speaker 7 (43:05):
Got to have in that though, because if I've never
been to China, so I'm gonna say you with shod Troy,
y'all been to China, what should I be looking out for? Like,
there's something about the human experience you don't always need
more to be.

Speaker 1 (43:15):
Than with a robot.

Speaker 6 (43:16):
Tell that's true, that's true, And that's yeah, that's and
that's the delicate line that we were walking. As far
as AI and human experience, we still have a human
experience that's needed. Hopefully it will continue.

Speaker 1 (43:31):
It's crazy.

Speaker 8 (43:32):
All right, Look, this is the last thing I gotta say,
because now y'all got my my fucking mind going right.
So months ago, right, I had my my gallbladder removed, right,
And I saw a doctor. I saw like three doctors
came in. At first they were saying, now we're just
gonna have to take the godstones out, and then they're like,
now we're just gonna remove the whole gallbladder. So the
last doctor who was supposed to have been doing it,
he was like, all right, we're gonna have like it

(43:53):
was a machine that did it, like an.

Speaker 3 (43:55):
AI robot that did it.

Speaker 8 (43:57):
They just oversee it, like he ever touched me at all.
The doctor never ever touched me. It was of course
I went under, they put me under anesthesi and all that,
but they told me that a robot will be doing it.
AI robot will be doing my surgery, and that's who
did it.

Speaker 7 (44:15):
So that's crazy.

Speaker 3 (44:16):
I just want to throw it out now. I ain't
got no questions that.

Speaker 2 (44:20):
Probably did it more efficiently, right, because it's going to
be a human error.

Speaker 5 (44:22):
Right, somebody's using their hands like you never know what
they've been doing today, and.

Speaker 8 (44:25):
It's perfect and you can even see the incisions, but
like it's perfect.

Speaker 6 (44:30):
Think about how many all right dentists, right, A lot
of dentists develop carpal tunnel syndrome and they should have
shaky hands. So think about the human error that happens
if a dentist not on purpose. That's why they have
so much medical the laws, the liability insurance right because
if they make a mistake, then insurance has to pay
for that. And there's billions of dollars that's paid out

(44:52):
and claims every single year because doctors make mistakes that
potentially could kill somebody.

Speaker 1 (44:57):
Right.

Speaker 6 (44:58):
Bill Gates said the two industry he's going to get
impacted the most is health care and education. That's what
he said. He said healthcare, education is gonna get impacted
the most by artificial intelligence. So yeah, doctors, you're going
to see like a full robot performing surgery. That's going
to happen, and you're gonna have clap like I said,
Cali all right. Calise said her youngest child is fully AI.

(45:21):
He only gets taught two hours a day, and she
said it's the best educational experience that she's ever seen.
He's like a year ahead of the rest of kids
that's in his class. It's interactive. It's like Okay, they
teach you something and they said do you understand it?
And he's like, no, I don't understand it. Why don't
you understand it? And they have a real time conversation
one on one. It's a one on one experience, and

(45:43):
she was breaking it down to us and she was like, Yo,
he only does this for two hours. And then he
travels with me. I got a show. I'm going to
South Africa and he's on the road and we pack up.
As long as he got a computer, he can do
it anywhere in the world.

Speaker 2 (45:55):
Wow, it's real.

Speaker 5 (45:56):
Like the medical think about this, right in terms of learning,
I think it said it took the first version of chat.

Speaker 2 (46:02):
GBT fourteen days to calm the entire internet and learn
everything on the internet. Right.

Speaker 5 (46:09):
But now think about when you're talking about deep disease right,
like it can break down cells and figure out what's
the cause of cancer.

Speaker 2 (46:17):
How do we prevent cancer? Like in the next seven
to ten years.

Speaker 5 (46:20):
Like a lot of the diseases that exist today, they
will have a cure for That changes the world.

Speaker 7 (46:25):
Yeah, I mean I think about you know, I read
about stuff like nanobots. I would definitely do that, you
know what I mean, Like, what is that nanoboxy you
go in your system? Like they're talking about nanabos can
clean out your arteries clean out the cholesterol without any
type of surgeries anything like that, clean out.

Speaker 1 (46:40):
Types of cancers.

Speaker 7 (46:41):
It's like I would definitely have tory and they say
this damn, they're gonna make us some mortal. Yeah, because
it can cure it, I mean, kill any disease. I
don't know if I would do neural link, but something
like the nanobots, I would.

Speaker 2 (46:51):
Definitely that changes life expectancy, right.

Speaker 1 (46:54):
Yeah, got a couple more questions. Samber City, that's what
I was pronounced Sam Samber.

Speaker 7 (46:59):
It's a three hundred eight residential community that.

Speaker 2 (47:09):
Correctly man the Welcome Home City, three.

Speaker 7 (47:12):
Hundred acre residential community in the cry you're doing it
with my man, Chaka Baars.

Speaker 1 (47:16):
What's that about?

Speaker 6 (47:17):
Yeah, shout out to Alvin Kwame. So we we met
two we as well. We met some really big real
estate developers just entrepreneurs period. When we went to Ghana,
Shaka Bars introduced us to them and we just developed
a great relationship. They've been super a one with us.
They've really been ushering us all through the continent. Anytime
you see us in Africa, it's because.

Speaker 2 (47:35):
Of them that he used to work with Lauren hill Backer.

Speaker 6 (47:39):
He used to be in music. But long story short,
they already owned They owned the land already and they
just just thinking about different ideas how they wanted to
develop it. But once again, they wanted to build with
Black Americans. They're like, yo, like we want to do
something where we can kind of bridge the gap. It's
not just for Black Americans, it's for Ghanaians, is for Africans,
but it's also for people in diaspora also. The idea

(48:01):
is to create a bridge, right, So that's something because
they're crazy how social media works. Okay, we do all
this private sector. We never spoke to anybody at that
time in the Ghanian government.

Speaker 1 (48:13):
I don't know.

Speaker 6 (48:14):
There's no dispect to the Ghanian government, but that's just
the fact. But then there was a video that went
viral on social media about like, yo, the Ghanaian government
gave four hundred acres of land to earn your lesion.
It's just for black Americans. And it was a very
convincing storyline that it made and it wasn't even like
a derogatory story but it was just one false and

(48:34):
then people was like, oh, y'all, y'all colonizing, y'all coming in,
y'all doing y'all. Y'all worse than the Britons. I'm like,
we're working with the African It's not for just Black Americans,
for anybody that wants to buy property and da da
da da. But social media has become a place where
you can create a narrative. The truth doesn't matter, you
know what I'm saying, Like, as long as it's entertaining, right,
you can just create a narrative and then people will

(48:55):
just run with it. But Sombra, the idea of that
is to act shoually just create a thriving community in
Ghana where you know a lot of people go in December,
but it's like that's not really beneficial long term for
the economic prosperity of the country. So we want to
create something where it's like, Okay, you can either a
live there or you can airbn be it out because

(49:18):
everybody's not going to move to Africa, right, so you
buy a Probably real estate in Ghana has gone up
tremendously over the last ten years. It's going to keep
going up. It's a housing shortage and in most countries,
in Ghana specifically, so there's a demand for real estate.
So you're now that project is going great. We should
have the first phase done by hopefully New Years. And
we're doing it in phases. And like I said, it's

(49:40):
not for only Black Americans, it's for Ghanaians, it's for Nigerians,
anybody on the continent. But it's also for black people
as well. And like you know, to own own a
piece of land in the motherland. You can airbing be
at Airbnb is great, especially in December. You can make
a lot of money just in a couple of weeks
in December because that's when everybody comes. And you can
also have somewhere to go if you want to just

(50:01):
get away.

Speaker 1 (50:02):
You know.

Speaker 6 (50:02):
It's I always like going to Africa because it's just
like you don't realize how toxic something is until you
leave it. Yeah, and America is just so toxic social
media and all that. And it's just like even you
on social media, you still like you feel like you're
on a different algorithm. You don't feel inundated by all
of the toxicity. But as soon as you land back
in JFK, it's like right back to it.

Speaker 1 (50:25):
Yeah.

Speaker 5 (50:25):
That's the fact you go to a country everybody looks
like you that's foreign to me.

Speaker 2 (50:29):
You know what I'm saying.

Speaker 5 (50:29):
And the goal is, yes, this is the first development,
but the idea is like, yeah, this is something that
could be replicated.

Speaker 1 (50:36):
Right.

Speaker 5 (50:36):
It's the reason why you go to a different country,
why you see us and can you see us Rwanda?
You see us in other a bunch of countries, because
this is how you create something that is a legacy, right,
not just for you, but for everybody that I ask.

Speaker 2 (50:47):
But like, this is something that.

Speaker 5 (50:48):
We can be proud of and it happened on your watch,
Like you watched us get the ground, We've been watching
us through the stages, and that you.

Speaker 2 (50:55):
Can be part of it.

Speaker 7 (50:56):
How do y'all define this is my last question? How
y'all define success for invest Fest Now? Is it you know, partnerships,
is it media coverage or something that we don't even see?

Speaker 1 (51:04):
Cultural impact?

Speaker 6 (51:05):
It's only above. I mean, I feel like if you
look at invest Fast, anything that we've done is pretty
unprecedented as far as Okay, it's not just called the festival,
it's an actual festival. Right over the course of the wee
can have forty thousand people. That's how they do. They
do about like how many people come in per day?
But we did that ourselves. It's not like we worked
with another major corporation. A lot of festivals that they're

(51:28):
funded and they're operated by major corporations. Nothing wrong with that,
but like they get the talent and they get the
venue and then they promoted and all that. Like we
did everything ourselves. Even to this day, we did everything ourselves.
So it's a beacon of what can be possible. Just
an idea, like you I mean like once again you
actually GPT the biggest financial events in the world. Investments

(51:49):
is going to come up in the top five. So
that just we just started that just off an idea.
So success is seeing that come to fruition, no matter
what happens, is a success because we was actually able
to put it together and have multiple billionaires and have
four hundred small business vendors and have you know, eighty
panelists on stage and employ you know, you're talking about

(52:10):
economic impact. We're employing people from security to a v
to a variety of different things that you know, these
are things that's not talked about. People don't understand it
because they've never done it right. You can't fully understand
some until you actually do it. But these are things
that like we see in real time, so we know
what it means to the city of Atlanta and what
it means to just our culture period. But as far

(52:30):
as other variations of success, when people make money, so
the vendor marketplace, like, that's a great opportunity for anybody,
small business to make money from people that's coming from
the pitch competition standpoint, from people that's actually attending. There's
no way you can attend three days of full workshops
panels and not learn something. But then also networking that happens, right,
you might meet a business partner, you might meet somebody

(52:52):
that wants to invest in your company, stuff like that.
So bringing that many people together keep we keep on
elevating the experience, We add things to it, We see
what we could have did better the year before. And
that's why I think the essence thing is kind of
disheartening because a lot of people just want to criticize,
but they have what have you done?

Speaker 1 (53:14):
Take the risk?

Speaker 6 (53:15):
Nineteen Keys. Nineteen Keys said something to me that was
extremely insightful. He was like, don't destroy something if you
don't have a better alternative to build, Like you know
what I'm saying, Like, if you're going to destroy it.
Make sure you can build something that's two times better
than what you destroy. Ninety nine percent of the population
they want to destroy something with no alternative. So it's like, Okay,

(53:37):
you want to destroy essence. It might not have been perfect,
but what is going to be the alternative? Who else
is going to give all of these opportunities to different
businesses and employ people and bring economic empowerment and like
this is this is a real economic impact that's actually happening, right,
So okay, let's say it just goes away and it
is no more essence next year?

Speaker 1 (53:55):
Then what then?

Speaker 6 (53:55):
What? You know what I'm saying, What does New Orleans have?
What is all these entrepreneurs have? What do these local
restaurant tours have? You know what I'm saying? Like, nobody
ever thinks about that, Like you, you want to destroy
something with no viable option of replacing it.

Speaker 5 (54:09):
A lot of these people are making that year in
the weekend, Like that that happens you take that away?

Speaker 1 (54:14):
Yeah, I mean that hundred thousand, Shut up, man, hundred
thousand in a weekend.

Speaker 7 (54:22):
So I wish you'll much successn Like, I love having
a conversations with your.

Speaker 1 (54:27):
Shot talk all the time.

Speaker 7 (54:28):
But you know, I really do hope that y'all make
the critics the critics and the hate is even more
mad this year.

Speaker 1 (54:34):
I really do appreciate that instment sign of success. Whether
you realize that.

Speaker 2 (54:44):
We got you to help us. There's only one person
who hasn't been there in the room.

Speaker 6 (54:48):
Yes, just with the.

Speaker 8 (54:50):
Mess my friends, all of that, and I ain't I
ain't calling me right.

Speaker 2 (55:00):
Now, all right, just about investments.

Speaker 6 (55:09):
Before, I just want to say so, if you want
tickets invest fest dot com. There's still a couple of
vendor booths left and it's August twenty second to August
twenty fourth in Atlanta, Georgia. And once again, thank you guys.

Speaker 3 (55:32):
Get your tickets, now, earn your leisure. It's the breakfast club.
Good morning.

Speaker 7 (55:36):
Hold every day a weak go pack your ass up
