class in high school that was like an elective where you were part you were a part of um a group where you did stock exchange you trade you were trading and my group was the top and we went to almost like regionals and we competed against Kilgore y'all Kilgore beat our ass though so we we only lasted to Kilgore and that was it they won but i've always had an interest in stocks and all that and so reddit um those you don't know i am i i do contract work for reddit too and they went public and so now is a good time to purchase anything like that and so i did you know i had a little extra money and so i purchased from reddit Xerox shout out to the age of Adelon and Six Flags and so i asked JB JB is my financial advisor right so i asked JB i'm like JB what do you think do you think it's a good idea to um to invest in reddit he was like mm-mm he's like you're too young i mean no he said you too old to be risking stuff first off i didn't i didn't i didn't ask you for all that i asked you child he read me and so i said well what about Xerox he's like Xerox his old ass Xerox is okay i'm like okay JB i i hear you i hear y'all is that enough y'all i'm not sure if i should put some anywhere else we're gonna let that hang while i continue to talk i could put one or two in the back but i don't want to do that because i'm going to keep these in a while this is cute how why do i feel like i'm short girl because you are i want to sit up this is cute so let me put this up y'all so yes i am about vested in the stock market and my goal is stock market girl is to continue to pay off my debt but also invest in for the longest i was like i can't do both however to JB's point i'm not getting any any younger i can't do both um and my husband i was telling my husband what i did last night he's like you know the only way to really make good of it is you if you put a month some money every month towards some type of stock every well yeah every month i said you gonna put some of that towards it i probably he probably would i'm gonna ask him to give me a hundred dollars every month and i'll just check it out like so i guess for the next few weeks i'm going to dive into everything learn as much as i can about the stock market and really really like soak it up don't brush don't brush your teeth and do your hair no go brush your teeth and do your hair close the door i will sure so jessica i hope i'm pronouncing her last name all right pet wave this is so sad you guys um it is so heartbreaking when anybody and untimely passes away and so i was noticing stuff like four or five days ago saying rest in peace to jessica i went to her youtube channel and i noticed she hadn't posted in about a year now it's a little for the og jessica is is part of the og like the shari jays the janelle um god there's so many of them um african x for the leo by the ogs that are either completely gone or they come back and they leave they the border hammer is another one come back and they leave so you don't know what's going on with them you hope that they're well and sometimes they are on instagram doing a thing she had cervical cancer and she was misdiagnosed she i guess she was told that it was fibroids and come to find out that it wasn't fibroids and so her symptoms included she was in pain and she was having she was hemorrhaging she was bleeding um by the time they found out that no it wasn't fibroids it was actually cancer it was too late in the midst of all that i was hearing people saying and i guess i don't know if this is true or not in her case but now they are recommending going to go get a pap smear every three years let me tell you something father stop when did they change that can anyone tell me when did they change that because baby i've been getting a pap smear every year since i was 18 years old and so sure to write before i did this video y'all i went on google i looked up a couple of things and and it's true they are still recommending every it's like two to three years it's not every year anymore for a pap smear however i did come across an article that stated that women who get pap smear are often they have a better chance of um catching the cancer basically so the recommendation if you've had cervical cancer in the past um if you have a low immune system and there was a couple of other things that they do recommend having a pap smear often again talk to your doctor i did know when i had my pap smear earlier this year and the gynecologist was like well excuse me she was an actual doctor i'm going to find me a obd here in texas this is getting so hard to make these appointments but anyway the doctor who did it she was like okay i'll see you back in two years and at the first at first i like i took it as whatever i didn't know she was kidding her i didn't take it serious is what i'm saying because i'm still want to see you again next next February miss patel so now they're only recommending it every two to three if there's anybody any doctors i know there's some doctors and nurses who are watching this please let me know when did it change i just feel like especially as african-american women we have to be advocates for our own health one two if you feel like something is often and you feel like you need to go every year go every year i'm going every year for my mammogram i'm going every year for my pap smear until i'm until i'm like 65 like seriously i'm doing it i'm not going to stop doing that for me personally um so it's just very very sad to know that she passed away from something that could have been avoided so you know prayers to her family other things i'm watching on youtube true crime child true crime um let's talk about beyonce i shared on my community page
