 I know that I'm willing to put sweat equity into it. This is what I believe, I'm sharing that with you for nothing, just get out there and succeed. You know you wouldn't believe the checks I've wrote you know over the past couple months just throwing money out there to see what happens you know literally just chunking it away. I think too though if you're if you're at your level it's completely different. No I was like that I was like that at your level like I yeah I would I would yeah dude I was dude I'm a huge risk taker huge huge risk taker like I know I'm gonna stand behind the fact that I'm willing I know that I'm willing to put sweat equity into it yeah I know that I know that I can lose everything I can lose everything but you can't take me like they're not they're not they're not like I'm not gonna disappear that you know like my bank account could go to zero but I'm still here you know I'm still gonna make it happen so too on that note kind of while I'm thinking about it you know stocks you know I invest a lot into the stock market and I think one cool way I've been thinking about it you know for a while is and it goes back to the fact that I'm willing to risk the money yeah because I know I'm not going away and it's the same thing with stocks it's like do you think Apple's going away ever no no I don't think it's ever going away um you know Verizon AT&T you know um Johnson and John like all these companies are just gonna be here you know forever now what if something weird happens and one of those companies does disappear that's fine that's why you diversify yeah so the thing is is here here's here's here's a cool way to think about this and I wish I would have thought about this a lot sooner so that's why I'm gonna share it with everybody like if you pick you know say five or ten companies that you feel like are never going anywhere blue chippers blue chippers you know like you know do do ten companies do you know do like you know one or two risky really risky ones you know and like three medium risky wins and five blue chippers you know and it's like you know you could put as much money as you want into it you could put everything you got into it because if one of those companies goes up five you know five x ten x you know what I mean all you need is one of those companies to go ten if you put a hundred thousand and each you got a million sitting there you know one of those companies goes 10x but the other one lost 50% you still you know saying like it yeah those companies aren't going away you know what I'm saying so so do you invest in individual stocks oh yeah you do okay oh yeah I'm gonna have some p 500 index fun yeah okay see I have zero mutual funds or index funds at all I said the same thing like listen if I go bankrupt that means we're in World War three because I own America you know like I've got bigger issues in my money at that point right right now it's smart it's really smart it goes back to your discipline on you know being by the book doing what you're supposed to do like you do it the way I'm more of a risk taker you know hence the reason why you know put like 300 thousand into the coaching industry making zero money you know for two years I'm just visualized I'm just a dream I'm a visualizer I can visualize it and once I can put the math together see I'm really I'm a math I'm like I like I like the numbers I like to make the numbers work and if I can if I can make the numbers work around a dream then you can't hold me back I'm I'm going to do it you know what I mean yeah I told my dad um you know what I was making coaching and he was like oh like he just he can't fathom it because he's not a risk taker and he and he saw what I did to get there and it just blows his mind how you know I've turned this thing I've basically made something out of absolutely nothing you know what I mean complete sweat equity and um an investment that could have went to zero you know could have lost it I could have lost everything over this you know yeah but I know I would have just fought right back and brought it back got off subject there but also like dividend paying stocks because okay and this is real basic but I just want to throw it out there for people who might be new with stocks if you have a if you have a stock paying five percent dividend okay and you put a hundred thousand in that's five percent a year that you're making off that hundred thousand now if the market crashes say fifty percent your hundred thousand is now worth fifty thousand you're still making five thousand a year you're still making that five thousand off of that hundred thousand right right now that's if this that's if the company maintains its dividend through the crash
