 When I announced the 60 million US dollars for you, the freedom family that we are getting, many of you had concerns. There seems to be a lot of confusion in regarding whether or not you have sold the freedom network. Perhaps he's now an employee and can be fired as said CEO by the controlling partner. Will there be a new president? Will George still be in charge? Did we sell out or is this cash only an investment to help you grow? We will answer all of those things in this explained video where we go over all of your comments. Let's get started. If I had a million dollars, I would be rich. Click that I to see this video behind me, which we're going to talk about today. We had 756 comments in that video, and we're going to go over all of your concerns, starting with gaming assassin who 16 minutes ago said sell out. Exactly the opposite. As I wrote, we sold in by raising 60 million US dollars and we will invest every dollar in helping you grow. I personally got nothing, zero from the 60 million. Many of you were thinking, hey George, you must be rich now. How much of that 60 million went into your pocket? Zero. Because I want all of it to help you grow. Remember, we are doing this for the long term. We want to do an IPO. This is a stepping stone towards that. So it all goes to freedom and to you, our partners to help you grow. Hope this helps. Kaiser Hertzen wrote, why not give each freedom family member 20 to 100 dollars or maybe a daily contest? The problem with that is, have you earned it? We want this money to go into helping everybody grow. If we give, let's say, you Kaiser Hertzen 100 dollars, how's that going to help everybody grow? We need to think of the whole family, not just individuals, in investing this 60 million. Demkeys wrote something very important. He said, there seems to be a lot of confusion in regarding whether or not you have sold the freedom network. I've seen questions, doubts or even people coming up to conclusions. Let's be clear. We did not sell freedom. We took 60 million dollars in as a cash investment to help you grow. Nobody got paid in freedom. None of the staff, including myself, got any of that 60 million. If we had sold the company, we would all be getting that 60 million in our pockets. Instead, we decided to invest the 60 million by simply having cash to help you grow. So the company is not sold, the company just got a cash injection. Demkeys also wrote, I think it would be quite helpful if you made a video explaining everything exactly, which is this video. Blingy wrote, this video is full of BS. Regardless of what George said, it's not an investment. It's a controlling interest sale, which means George is now only a partner in a company and he no longer has the final say. This is a critical point of our deal. Normally, if you sell more than 50% of your company, what happens is the new majority shareholder has the final say in all things, not the case here. You can structure an agreement, as we did, where even though you sell more than 50%, you, the minority shareholder, still have full decision-making control. Now, I can't tell you exactly how we did that, but you can be certain that the mistake I made when I did the deal of TGN to BBTV is not the mistake I'm making this time around. I don't make the same mistake twice. In this case, I have full decision-making control over what goes on in freedom and if I feel something shouldn't happen, it won't. I hope this helps ease the understandable fears that people had that freedom is now going to be in the hands of some corporate entity whose only goal is profit and will not care about the community. That is not the case. I very much care about the community and while we certainly do need to be profitable, we will not do it at the expense of the community. That's my promise to you. Nothing will change in freedom in terms of community, in terms of growth, in terms of the whole freedom family helping each other grow together. That will stay the same. The only difference is we now have $60 million to invest in that vision to make it so much better and it will be. Blingy also wrote, perhaps he's now an employee and can be fired as said CEO by the controlling partner. That is not possible. I actually have a very secure long-term contract guaranteeing that I will remain CEO and head of freedom for a very long time. So you don't have to worry about that. He wrote a lot more here that I will address. He received the money with a stipulation to stay on for a period of time. It was actually my choice to stay on forever. I never intend to leave. Perhaps with a bonus if he can attain some BS number he fed to the investor. Nope, none of that. That BS number won't be attained and he will quietly shift into the shadows. Not likely. People want to think this is an investment. Lol, it's not. Actually, it is. It's a payout and if the investor can grow the company, then George wins because of the money. Again, it's not a payout. It's money that we get into our bank account that we can use to invest in your growth. If they can't, he still wins because of the money, most of which won't be reinvested into freedom. Now come on, George. Feel free to respond with some BS marketing lie on how you're just a good guy looking out for us. I feel bad for the kids that are buying it. Well, blingy, I feel bad that you're a cynic. I feel bad that you can't believe something good is happening in the world of YouTube that doesn't involve some back-end dealings. You probably won't believe me of anything I'm saying, which is okay. I will prove to you. Over time, I think you will come back to us maybe in six months, maybe in a year, maybe never, but I think you'll come back to us and say, George, you were right. iTechnologyMan shared a good tip for the freedom family.

What does the investor get in return for the 60 million on top of the 50.01% and the answer is the investor gets access to all of our resources and we get access to all of theirs making two plus two equal five. The main benefit really is a shared vision of growing freedom to an IPO in a few years. If we are successful in that, this 60 million will look like just a small blip onwards and upwards. And that is our real goal as the freedom family. We want to do what's never been done before a full IPO where we don't sell the company. Instead, we invest all the money from a successful IPO back into the freedom family, which will be a lot more than 60 million. I think if we have a successful IPO, what do you think Preston McNair? Hi Preston wrote 50.01% sold and a new president curious to see how things go from here. First of all, there is no new president, but I asked you that already here. Nothing changes in the leadership team, which means I'm the CEO of freedom and continue to be and we don't have a new president. I'm curious what gave you that idea and John McGahan. Hi John. I know John and Preston from way back. It's great to see you guys here in the comments. Thank you for following the progress of freedom. There's an article out there said John from a Hong Kong newsletter stating this. Hu Jingxiao will be the freedom president, but he joked would condescend to become the business development manager. I'm actually not sure what article you mean, but I'm very intimately familiar with all the details of this deal and I can guarantee you there is no freedom president and there's no new president. We don't have a president and I don't think we need a president, but I can understand why you would think that after you explained here. Leo Wattenberg made an informed comment about the zoom in deal. So zoom in got a valuation of 88 million euros, which is about 100 million US dollars post money. That's something they advertised publicly on their website and he thought that we got a lower valuation. In fact, we did the opposite. We got a higher valuation and here's why the zoom in valuation as I wrote of 88 million is post money. Our valuation is 120 million post money. Why? Because we were valued at 60 million pre money. That's before getting any cash. Then with the 60 million cash, we now have 60 plus 60, 120 million post money. So we actually have a 20 million higher valuation than zoom in had. Kasanova Kurai wrote, I'm glad to see that all the folks and meetings you've been busy with has paid off. Blow our minds freedom. That's what we intend to do with your help. Tell us in the comments below if you have any suggestions on how we should invest this 60 million. I read everything you write down there. So don't be shy. Share your comments and who knows. If you make a good suggestion we didn't think of, we will implement it to help you grow. Funny fails wrote, I sent a request to join freedom. Up to now I have not heard anything from them. Just head on over to our www.support.tm website which is right here and open a ticket or ask the community. That is the fastest way to get a response if you're left wondering what to do next. Charlie Fish asked the question we've already answered about being in charge but I want to point out his tone. When he first criticized us about this, I actually called him out and said, don't be so cynical Charlie. And look at his comment. He said, thank you. I apologize if I came across as cynical. In our world you have to doubt everything you hear. Very calm, very collected, very reasonable response. I hope all of you who have doubts can use the same tone as Charlie in having a meaningful helpful discussion. Don't get emotional. Don't start getting angry. Just share your thoughts, be calm, be collected. Thank you Charlie. Another key point to this investment is we don't have the 60 million dollars in our bank yet. We will have it pending regulatory approval and this is the key point. We are going through now a process where we will be rolled up into a public company. Freedom will be part of a stock exchange, the Hong Kong stock exchange. That means we have access to a lot more resources and you get to see everything. Being part of a public Hong Kong company means we have to be transparent. We have to share everything going on in freedom, all the deals we make, all the different things that may in the past have been secret are now public because that's the nature of a public company in Hong Kong. They're very transparent. So you can be sure that in the past how we shared our earnings report www.freedom.tm.erne we'll be doing a lot more of that on a lot larger scale as being part of a public company. Wait, does that mean you've already reached your goal of going public? No, this is a stepping stone as I said. Our goal is to grow freedom into its own listing, hopefully on NASDAQ. Can you imagine the ticker symbol freedom? That's what I would like to achieve in a few years and that's what I hope I can encourage you to help us achieve because we intend to create a stock option program as I've said in the past that will reward you, the YouTubers, the people who are helping us reach our IPO goals with stock options and freedom. That is coming. I'm sorry it's taking so long, but we have to do things one step at a time. Getting this investment was a critical and an important step and the next step will involve creating a stock option program. I don't know exactly when, but it is coming.
