I don't even know how he got in that position. When was him and Massa talking? That Massa figured out he wasn't answering the Tobi. Nobody ever thought of that. Right. But at some point. He didn't, I mean, Tobi ain't really just a nigga named like this. Especially, you know, you don't go from Kunta Kentake. Like in Africa, Kunta Kentake is the shit. Yeah, that shit sound hard though. That sound like a war. Exactly. Then you want to come to America and be Tobi, nigga. Hell no. Yeah, I couldn't do that. Hell no. I'd rather be Jebediah or some shit like that than God.

Oh, okay. This is a special occasion, though. It's not every day we get black on weed. It's just weed that we got from some black folks. Exactly. So I got all different strands of black on weed. Sit that shit on the table. Yeah, all that. Viola. Black on weed by Al Harrington. I invested in the company. So yes, I am our own shares of the company before IPO. So you feel me? Oh, that's how y'all want to do it without an intro. Welcome back to the black market. Five South Show presents the black market experience. That's where we reach out to some dope-ass people in the middle of the community who are doing some dope things, like bringing good dope, making good investments. All that. Now, hold up. I got my research department on there. I'm going to make sure that you get all your proper properties. You feel me? Appreciate it. Today on the black market with us, we got a young man, a young black entrepreneur who saw the vision all the way through. You feel me? I got my man, Aristotle in here. Now, see, that's a cold name. Appreciate it. Now, you don't have to change your shit. When they going through the paperwork, they're going to be like, Aristotle? That's fine. That's fine. You named after a brilliant scientist. Man, that's my real name, too. Word. So did you, like, in the hood, niggas used to fuck with you and be like, oh, Aristotle, nigga. I ain't know nothing nigga named Aristotle. So that's my middle name. Okay. So, like, in the hood, well, when I was growing up, they just called me Kario. Like Mario with the K. The fucks with it? Kario. I might have a son or something named that one day. So, like, at home, that's what they call me and shit. You got to pass that by. I'm about to, man. I'm trying to smoke the black on. Come on, bro. Don't do me like that on camera in front of the black people, man. Tell me how you got your start. What was your motivation? What it is that you exactly do? What you doing? What you want to be doing? That's what this whole black market experience is about. So, basically, from start, how I got my motivation and what I do, right? Okay. So, how it all started was I was in the Army. Okay. Army of one? Yes. I was in the Army. I joined when I was 18. Okay. At duty. And basically... Where did you go when you, you know, you got through with basic and all that? Where did you get to see another world? Well, I traveled around, like, the country. Like, basically, like, when hurricanes happen. Yeah. When natural disasters happen. Like, we went for Hurricane Harvey. Okay. The one in Puerto Rico when Donald Trump was throwing the paper towel. Oh, this is recent as hell. Yeah. I just got to Army of March 2020. Oh, shit. That's what you... You can clap for that? Yeah. And we appreciate your service, brother. He was over there when he was throwing the paper towel. My team went, well, I didn't get there as soon as they did it, but yeah. We did. We went to Puerto Rico. We went to Texas for that, to respond to that. To the flood? Yeah. Okay. Hurricane Harvey. Okay. I went to Boston. You know, a lot of places in the country. Okay. In Indiana, like, to do certain missions. So, I didn't... I was about to deploy, but I actually rejected it. I was like, you know, I'm just going to get out. Small. Small. Nah, actually, I wanted to deploy because... So, I was... Here was my plan. When you deploy, you can save up about $20,000 to $30,000. But I was also a barber while I was in. But you was making bread. Oh, yeah. I was making, like, $3,000 a month. I was cutting hair and then $4,000 off the Army. So, I was making about $7,000 a month. By the time I was, like, $22,000. And I became a millionaire at $23,000. But I was still in the Army. Nigga, this got to be a movie. All right. Yeah, yeah. That shit happened fast. How did you go from 22-year-old barber making $7,000 a month, which ain't shit that throw no rock at now. That's decent. Right. To a whole million now. So, this is how I did it. I was making $4,000 off the Army. Okay. I was living off that $4,000. I literally lived below my means and budgeting my life through that $4,000 and invested that $3,000 off barber money. So, I could still cut hair. You know what I'm saying? I still cut hair to this day. Mm-hmm. But, well, not really not cut my hair. I couldn't get my shit cut by a million that barber, you know what I'm saying? Nah, man, fuck that. Why not? Nah, because I ain't used to it. I need a barber that need to cut my hair as much as I need my shit cut. I got them three. Nah, if I cut today, it'll be free, though. There you go. I just like to do it because it's therapeutic and it's a craft and it's also like just, you know, networking and talking about to the store or what you want to know how it went down. Yeah. So, basically, I was living off the barber, I mean, I was living off the Army money, but I was investing the barber money. Okay. And then, I just, out of curiosity, I just wanted to, you know, research the stock market, but I was doing this privately. I weren't telling nobody or anything like that. So, how the thought got on me going to Instagram was literally because I was posting my gains and shit to my family members. You know, when you're on Facebook, it's strictly family. Right. When you're on Instagram, it's a lot of strangers because people follow you. So, I was posting it to family and stuff and they wasn't responding. Like, they wasn't liking it, but if I post it personally, they'll like it. So, I said, you know what, I don't want a cloud job because I have a passion for this. I'm like, I don't want to cloud my timeline with just investing. If you foot with my investments, I'ma just make a new investment page. So, that's where it came from. And basically, I created a new investment page and that shit just took off. Like, people start following it and that's all they wanted to see was me invest. You feel me? What were you investing in? In the stock market. Yeah, I'm saying. Marijuana. Canadian marijuana. So, that actually was my first investment, which is ironic because, you know, now I'm heavily investing in marijuana. You know what I mean? So. Why did you pick weed? Marijuana. It's because of me experiencing the streets of Atlanta. I knew that when I was young, that's how my dad fed me. What's that Atlanta? Southside, Cleveland Avenue. Oh, really? Yeah, so. That's how my dad fed me and I saw her make a lot of money. So, in the back of my head, I always had that weed gonna always sell. You know what I mean? Bro, are you the weed man, son? I was. And you then took, Bro, no, hold up. Because this is black history right now. You the weed man, son. I am. And you then made the family legit? Yeah. Then you get one more clap, nigga. So, how you need me to say that, you know what I'm talking about? Your dad is gonna be like, oh, this nigga hit. No, no, no. He'll do it no more. Exactly. Exactly. Yeah, but, uh... Let me ask you a few questions for the people who might be watching. Because, you know, it's a lot of that popping up now. A lot of people saying, hey, join this class. So, let me teach you how to invest. Like, what type of advice do you give people who may be standing right there ready to invest, but don't have the knowledge of what to invest in or where to invest? So, as a beginner, the first thing I'm gonna tell people is it depends on which lane you're trying to go. So, there's two lanes in investing in my world. Right. It's either you're going to be a long-term trader or you're going to be a day trader. Southside niggas. What would you tell a nigga from the Southside? He don't know nothing about no day trader. No, no, but I'm about to keep it down. I'm gonna be explaining. Bro, I'm trying to do it like you're doing it, bro. Okay, if he's trying to do it like me, he want to be a trader. Okay. You feel me? So, but I also do long-term invest, because long-term investing is important. I'll get into that. So, basically, if you want to long-term invest, you're going to have to learn what is called fundamental analysis. Okay. Right. So, there's two type of analysis I teach. Fundamental and technical. Fundamental is the study of the company's profitability by their balance sheets, their debt to income, all of that, right? And then technical analysis is the study of price charts, the candlesticks, the stuff everybody don't want to, they're scared of, you feel me? All those graphs, all those lines. So, that's what I specialize in, because that helps you make the quick money. The fundamental is the for the long-term, because you're studying whether the company will do good long-term based on how profitable they are right now. You feel me? Okay. So, those, so what I tell people is which lane are you trying to choose? They say, well, if they tell me they don't got time, I'm going to say, I'm going to point you to the fundamental lane. I'm going to say, okay, you got money, but you don't have time. So, somebody like y'all, y'all got money, but y'all might not have time to, you know what I'm saying? Watch the stock market. Right. So, I would point, that's where I point to DC. Like DC and the Flotter made. Don't say, don't do that, don't do that. Yeah. We don't have no money, bro. We don't have shit. We don't have nothing. You know the fans listening? They don't want money. Why don't you put me in that group chat? Well, but my boy DC, I taught him how to do the dividends, because he told me he ain't got time to watch the charts and train. And I know I'm training. Yeah, I ain't going to say numbers and shit, but, yeah, I taught DC the dividends. He made some money or whatnot. And then, but that's what I teach. So, dividends is basically a portion of the company's profits that they pay back to the shareholders. Right. So, when you buy a stock, you are what is called a shareholder. Exactly. Right? So, certain companies, in order to attract shareholders, which is you and I, they offer nice dividends. Yeah, like Walmart and Target. Yeah, they offer, Walmart offer a good dividend. But the best dividend companies, you know, and we smoking black on weed, by the way. Once again. Shout out to Al Harrington, Viola. I'm an investor in this company. So, we're investing. Me too. Me too. About to be. Yeah. You have. Yeah, I am high. Because you was talking about dividends. I was talking about dividends. And then I had to goddamn. You feel me? Yeah. But anyway. Because you getting dividends, your man automatically went to that. Exactly. So, anyways. Y'all look at for some more investors. Yeah. For some weed. This shit, fire. Keep going. Talk about the dividend stuff. Yeah. All that, man. So, for instance, like a company like AT&T, a company like O, which is O Realty. They're a realty, right? My favorite dividend companies would be At Sign Mobile and then Mote, which is, you know, people who smoke Marlboro. Yeah. So, Mote is a great dividend paying company. Yeah. So, Mote is a great company, because for one, they're heavily exposed into cannabis now. Yeah. So, they recently bought Chrono's Group, which is a competitor to Canopy Growth, which is one of the number one Canadian marijuana stocks. Yeah. And right now, Canada is legal federalized. It's federally, you know what I'm saying? So, on a federal level, but in the United States, it's not. It's only legal on a state level. Right. You feel me? So, you're educated on just the stock market or whatnot. But yeah. What made you, what pushed you to the stocks and investing, though? So, you stacked up this barber money and you like, you just had an idea that like, I need to do something with this. Before I get to that point, it's Alcheria Group, but the ticker is Mote. But yeah, what made me, what intrigued my mind was just curiosity, man. I had about 10,000 saved up and I was feeling myself. I was a young dude, but I sat back and thought to myself, I said, I'm trading too much time barbering. It takes me 30 minutes to cut a hair and I get $15, right? Cut a hair and I get $15. But in the stock market, I can make $200 in 15 minutes. So I'm like, okay, why am I sitting here cutting hair? I could just use this money so I literally gave up on barbering. Like cold turkey was like, it wasn't like drill turkey. Basically, basically when I started making money in the stock market, that's when I, when I made my first thousand in a day, I cut barbering out cold turkey. Who taught you the game? Me. Self-talk. Yeah. Like reading books, the For Dummy series. So you know how they got a stock market for dummies. The first book I ever wrote red was technical analysis for dummies. Then I read fundamental analysis. Then I read price chart. And then I read day trading for dummies. Then I read swing trading for dummies. And what I learned was when you start dabbling into something, it'll lead clues to other things. So as I'm learning things, let's just say I don't understand the way the book taught it. I might go YouTube it. I might go Google it. So, and then that might lead to something else because YouTube might have another video that pop up that say this. And I'm like, okay, let me click on that next. And then it's like a trickle-down effect. And then you just start, from one idea, and then you just start, you know what I'm saying? It just expanded into a lot. And then I'm meeting people, networking, other traders. Learning from them, they learning from me. And then just a lot of stuff that just makes you a good trader. So what I did was I decided to create a program in a book. I decided to write a book about two years ago. What was it called? Aristotle Investing God. So this book was a book called Aristotle Investing God. So this book ended up going viral because I was just trying to teach people to stop marketing because I got tired of, because I didn't have enough time to mentor people. I was in the army when I wrote this book. So this was, I dropped this book. The beginning of 2019 is when I dropped that book. So if I had to go through my history, I could just say this. I started my company December, like 30th, 2018. Right? It was when I started the LLC, but I really started it back in September, 2018. 2019, I cleared about maybe 400K, but I was still in the army. So I was feeling myself. You should have been. Yeah. I was like, shit man. And then that wasn't including the army money because the army, I got, I made like 40,000. I made like 400K or 300, 300K from the stock market. Well, not the stock market, but from business, like books, all that stuff. And then the next year I flipped that 300K into millions. And then now we in 2021. So 2020, I boom, but I had already made a million before the pandemic hit. So I was a millionaire before COVID even hit. I had an M saved up and I was still in the army. Damn. That is fucking crazy. That's crazy. I ain't never heard nobody in the military say no shit like that. Yeah. And then it was a whole, it was a whole transition just getting out of the military because you got to think, not only was I black, but I was rich. You're still black. You're still black. No, I mean, you say you was black, but you ain't got that much fucking money. I'm talking about. No, nigga, you're still black. Now I was black. I'm talking about like the reason is why. I fuck you. Yeah. Yeah. You funny. You're still black. Nah, for real. Don't let the white people still, you know. Stay over here, bro. Yeah. No, you just, man, it's just dope to hit this type of shit, but it's not a very inspiring story. Like, what can people who listen right now reach out and get some more of this game from, man? Like, where you located? I'm located, man. I'm in Atlanta, man. That's my home base. I work anywhere I go is where I work. I make 100% of my money online. Yeah. So I'm saying, like, where can they find you online? Like, social? Oh, Aristotle underscore investments. A-R-I-S-T-O-T-L-E underscore investments. YouTube Aristotle investments. Google Aristotle investments. You'll see all the articles. Everything pop up. Um, yeah. Hey, what's up, fellas? Look, cup-it season is coming up.

We thank blue chew for sponsoring this podcast. Man, what's been your experience coming from the south side of Atlanta to, you know, this million-dollar investment? These million-dollar investments and becoming this million-dollar investor? So a story, I lived in Atlanta from a zero to I moved away when I was 16 and then I moved to Kansas because my stepfather was on the military. I was just nowhere. So I was going to Crete Side High School on the south side. Playboy Cardi was asking on my basketball team when I was in high school. Shout out to Playboy Cardi. Yeah, he was on the south side. Actually, he could. We took the same class and played on the same team since seventh grade. So, yeah, I remember him. See, that's when I was going to Crete Side or what not. But yeah, I moved to Kansas and that's when I pretty much, that's the first experience or exposure I had to the stock market because I went from going to an all-black school, which, if I could count on my hands, there's probably five white students at Crete Side. They probably hate that shit. They probably go home like, why do we live here? Hey, no kidding. I used to be thinking that shit too. I used to be like, there's only five of y'all here. Like, do y'all like not? You know what I'm saying? Yeah, those are the poorest white people. Nah. You know what I'm saying? If you was a white parent and you came home and your kids told you, I didn't see any white people all week, you gonna leave them at that school? What the fuck did them kids do? You want to show out? Next year, you're going to Crete Side. There you go. That's gotta be punishment. White people who went to all-black high school, they don't never talk about this shit. They shit just started in college. But it's always that one, though. No matter where you went, did you have a white person at your high school? Man, I'm from Mississippi. About 60, 70% of my high school was white. We had a small little group of black folks. So that's how it was in Kansas? Yeah. You see what I'm saying? I think it was more like 60, 40. In Kansas, it was like, damn, near 90% white. Like, probably 2% black. That's fucked up. And some other shit. I wouldn't send my kids to an all-white school, man. Well, I had no choice at the time. I was in Manhattan, Kansas, or K-State. There's some niggas somewhere around there, bro. It was. Y'all would have had to get up early. And that's where I went. I went to a local. Right, 30 minutes, the way I felt. I actually left the rival school, Manhattan, to go to Johnson City, because I heard it was more black people. Was it? Which it was, yeah. How many more? It was like, damn, near the ratio, went to, like, 35%. That's what you should have been the first year. Yeah. Yeah, yeah. I ain't know a lot. That's the real reason I left that school. It was just, it was 90% white, and I just felt out of place. I kinda come from Atlanta, and, you know what I'm saying? I just needed a little bit more diversity. Exactly. The school should be 50-50, all of them. I think you can't just have no fucking five black students. Well, who lives in Kansas? I'm just saying. There's a lot of niggas in Kansas. Well, it really is, man. That shit surprised me. Yeah. Shout out to Kansas. Oh, yeah. Shout out to Kansas. Kansas? Kansas or, like, Kansas, Missouri? Kansas, Kansas. All right. Like, I was out there in Kansas. Flat. I mean, I don't know why. I mean, it is kind of flat. It is. I fucks with it. Bro, how much money you think it'll take Investor to make some money right now for the people watching this shit? There's some people out there who... What type of money? Because I can get you a game. Cash. I'm talking about, like, give me a number of what daily goal. Okay. What are you thinking about? Give me a daily goal, and I'll tell you how to make it. Like, be realistic. If you said, what would you be cool with making right now at this moment, every day? Me? Trading, yeah. Trading? Yeah. Man, I think, realistically, about if you can make it about 10 Gs a day. Well, I just made 16,000 a day. That's what I'm saying. 10 to 15? 20? 100. Okay. 100K. See, you trying to... See, you actually trying to go big. I'll try and do something realistic for the audience. Bro, that's what... Don't never discount the audience, man. Okay. These motherfuckers got money, bro. No, I'm saying, like, okay, okay, okay, cool. I'm telling you, like, you think niggas been coming? You want me 10K a day? That's just realistic. Okay. Let's do it. So, I told you I could help you with any number. So, in order to make 10K a day, you're going to need, in my opinion, at least 250 grand of capital. Let me tell you why. Shit, you better. All right. So... I ain't... I ain't... Now, don't get me wrong. You can make it with 100K. Okay. But at the end of the day, you're going to have to risk a lot. So, in order to make 10K an option trader, right, we're going to need about 250,000. Okay. And the reason why is because we only want to play with 20% of our account. Okay. So, let's just say we plan with 250,000, right? Get my phone. Let me see what 20% of that is. And that's how much we're going to play with. Okay. All right? So, 250 grand and then times 0.2. So, that's 50K. That's what I was thinking. So, 50K is the number that we're going to play with. The reason why I don't want to start with a low number is because I want to give us room forever. Okay. You see what I'm saying? So, now, we plan with 20% of our account, 250,000. And we're playing with 50,000 at a time on the table. And our goal is to make 20% of that and 20% of 50,000 would be what? 10K. Think. Let me get you. I think so. Oh, yeah. 50,000. Am I? So, I got to make sure. All right. It's 10,000. So, boom. That's what I said. So, it's called the 2020 rule. So, you said you wanted to make 10,000 a day. Okay. So, my high ass was like, that would be about 250K and I was right. So, 250K. Okay. Security. Right. It's how much we have. All right. But 50,000 is what you're going to use to trade with. That's the number I was looking for. Right. I think you might have scared some of them off when you said 250. I know a lot of niggas with 50. Right. And the niggas I know with 250. But you asked me realistically what you would need to make 10,000 a day. And I said, okay, I'm going to give you the answer. Now, if you would have said 1,000, I would have had a more realistic answer for P1,000. Okay. 1,000 a day. 1,000 a day. We're going to need about, yeah, about 25,000. Exactly. So, 25,000 is what you would need to average about 1,000 a day and let's break it down. Now, you already know the breakdown. Exactly. 5,000 is what you're going to be playing with. So, you're going to need what is called probability setups in trading. There you go. So, basically, I'm like a lion in the jungle in the bushes waiting to attack. Lurk. And basically, I got eight things that I'm waiting on my prey to do. Okay. Which is the stocks, right? I bet. So, the first thing it would probably be like a breakout. Like, I got certain stuff. So, like, let's just say the gazelle, drink water, the lion attacks. That's me. If the stock does that, I'm going to attack. If the stock does that, I'm going to attack. When I got eight things, I want this stock to do before I attack. You see what I'm saying? Okay. So, I'm going to attack with $5,000. And then I want to profit just 20% of that 5,000 and that's 1,000. So, instead of people trying to always double their money, how about you use a lot of money and take a little bit of that money. You see what I'm saying? See, people be trying to double, they be trying to turn to 800 when they should be using $5,000 and make a thousand. You see what I'm saying? And that's what people go wrong. They trying to hit big instead of trying to use a lot to hit small. And then you hit big persistently. You see what I'm saying? That's the game. That's the game right there. You just really laid the whole game out. I did. And it ain't just that's how you, that's how I approach everything. Yeah. Say what, Kat? That's life. That's life. Yeah. Man, that weed man did a good job raising you, man. On some real shit era style. You didn't came in here to spit some more game. What else would you like to put them up on before, you know? Is it any more game you can put the people up on? I got plenty, man. Let them know what they can find the book. I got a book called Find a Problem, Sell the Solution. And it's about how I scale my Instagram organically. How to, how I run my ads because I did the math about 150k of my followers came from ads. So, so kind of close to half. So, I teach people how I structure my ads. Yeah. Most of my followers when my news leaked out. They were news of that. My news. Oh, news. Yeah. Just a bunch of horny women. They don't know shit about my comedy career. They don't know shit about my comedy career. Oh. I'm just fucking around, man. Yeah. I know because now did I know him in D.C. been making money on the side. I'm uncomfortable. I ain't now one of them niggas said, nothing to me. And then they just think he's just going to bring me some weed and we supposed to be cool. Nah, Aristotle. Nah, that was fucked up, man. That ain't a run up. You, you brought the weed because you knew you and D.C. had been making 10,000 dollars a day. I brought the weed. I know. Yeah. Okay. I brought black weed. Nah, man, but this is the black market presented to you by 85 self. So there's no brother to root for you. We know we hear your name. We see what you're doing out here and they must access to everything that you got going on. Anything that 85 self out affiliated with this can do to help you get the word out, promote whatever. Run some ass. Don't just be spending your money with the motherfuckers. Oh, yeah, yeah. You know, you got all this money we're going to overcharge you. So just know that the price y'all going to take the from the south. The price going to sound stupid. But you rich. We got to overcharge you. I respect. I respect me. Real shit, man. Appreciate you coming through here. You more than welcome to follow back through here. Let's get the seminar cracking, man. We got damn there. Two million followers. Also got a live tour to coming up. The country. Our first stop was in Atlanta, but we're going to be heading to various other cities around the country. Shout out some of the people in your network that made these moves and shit possible for you. So I think that's exactly how I promote my wife. Hold up, man. Talk about how important it is to have that. So this is how we're going to leave and not put us up on some black man love perspective, too. We need to talk, man. Come on, man. I got more. Come on. I wasn't kicking you out. Oh, okay. I thought we were making sure we did the right promo. Oh, okay. Talk about it. Um, basically I scaled my business to about, I think I was making about 20,000 a month. Uh, so I did it by myself at first. Okay. I was making 20,000 a month, but then I realized if, if I had someone to manage the customers to do all, to manage my DMs, all that, I could scale this business way faster and I could just focus on content and work. And I'm like, who do I trust? Cause my wife had a job at the time and she was just, she, she's pregnant. So that's why I started the business. Soon as she told me she was pregnant, I started the business. So I literally started the next hour. I called a homie who said he wanted to pay me for a service. And I said, all right, we ready. You feel me? Next thing you know that one guy turned into 10. So basically offered to pay me $100 a month for everything I know about investing. So we started. That's what I'm going to pay you. Cause you did it before. You already said you could have a free. I'm only paying you one. I'm only paying you $100 a month. That's what you going to get. That's what you get for always dropping numbers. I'm paying you. I got a tax. I was taxed. That's 30 days. You know what's money I'm going to make in 30 days. This man ain't going to tax me first. But that's how I got popular quick. People was like this dude is teaching investing for only $100. Cool. So it started with one then it started with 10. Then out of nowhere it started with 200 people and literally a month and a half. That's what's up. I literally scaled quickly because I used strategies that you can't do anymore. So I could just talk about it. I would first I would follow and unfollow. I had a machine a bot who talked about investing. Now I would have blocked the shit out of you. Cause I'd be thinking that shit fake when they be like hey man you want to make $9 million in 46 seconds. So I got it. So basically if you commented under an investors page I had this program that would follow you and send you a DM. That's fucked up. So basically I would I would go on all these investors accounts and I would just anybody who commented send them a DM. I had a bot that did that. So I was getting people who was already interested in investing to follow me. So boom that's how I did it. That's how I went from zero to 5,000 followers. But then they banned that bot when I was at 5,000. So I had to create a new strategy. But I had already had a 5,000 base of people. But out of those 5,000 people I had already done scaled my business to about 20,000 a month. So I'm straight. You see what I'm saying? So when my wife came along I made it. So I told her, look if you quit your job you know what I'm saying? I take care of her just quit your job and just managed my company on the back end. I noticed they can go to a million. That's when I was at 20,000 a month. That was 2019. So she quit her job. She was still praying and then she hasn't worked since. Basically get you a wife. He said all that just to tell you just get you a wife. I'll say this. That is a huge increase. 20,000. One million. You by yourself a wife. I ain't gonna lie like I scaled quickly because of her because she answered so she cleared my DMs every day. So that means more customers would pay so and she also made my websites. She answers the DM. She reports to me back with anything. She does my taxes. You know I never pay. I don't even know how much my mortgage costs. I don't know how much my light bill costs. I just give her You're a media class because you just be saying so much shit. Now your wife gonna watch this. You know the bills is 70,000 this month. I honestly don't know how much bills I have. Yeah. She gonna know now. But at the same time 70,000 for the light bill the light bill I told them kids cut them lights off. Brother first rule to be in a black man with some money repeat after me. What's that? I don't have no money. It don't matter how much you make stick to the script. I ain't even got to say that. They just know that I ain't going. You feel me? Bro don't matter if you get 70,000,000 act like you ain't got it. All your partners who know you got money ask them for $10 sometimes. And be sincere bro I'm fucked up right now. If you believe in me like you believed in me when I had it. I been asking them like sometimes I got to tell people and I was like, hey bro let me borrow 50. They just be then they be like this nigga no way ain't got to be 50 but I got to get it. Hold up bro. Shit. That nigga rich as hell. How much you said bro? It probably do be like that's the time though. Man the niggas who rolled up people you gonna be so quiet in the cops. They already heard you say that you need $250,000. To make 10 a day. Yeah they gonna be like man don't know what y'all they on bro. Drop me off bro my sister how my sister how bro this nigga trimming, trimming bro you heard what bro said. He know I'm fucked though I need 400 right now. I also want to say this I'm not we're not smoking backwood or tobacco at all. Okay. We are smoking tea leaves. Well. How did you like that?

Wow. Wow. Wow. Nah I fuck with you bro come back and put us up on game this is just part one of the seminar. I'm a huge fan I do I did want to say this on camera man. I want to say this on camera too. What's up? Before we start recording Aristotle told me before he got rich he used to watch this show. He knew exactly what I was going to say. Dean and me got up watching it. For the nothing bag. I got I got an excuse for that. I don't watch TV I don't entertain I Bro you going to tell you how you fucked up? Why? Because this ain't even fucking TV. This ain't TV. This ain't Hill bro. All white TV don't love. Rich you got plenty of time. I know you gonna have your rich ain't working hard don't fuckin' sell the people that'll lose you man. I don't know man I be having a focus on creating a lot and I actually enjoy that it's like a hot you already have created it nigga we better invest these stocks to that billion nigga. I watch y'all don't get me wrong I watch y'all. I'm saying you talking about I'm saying like y'all well what I remember Glimps is of when I was still in the army. It wasn't, I wasn't saying I stopped watching y'all what I was saying was before when y'all first took off, I was grinding at the same time as y'all. So I started my business around the time when y'all first started touring, I think. Okay, baby. When did y'all first start touring? Shit. Man. I am. Oh, man. When we, when we left, man. No. And we on tour right now, man. I remember that shit, though, man. We on tour, cat. Yeah, it's been five years. I used to go to my homeboy McCoy house because I had already left base and I was a barber. And I used to go to this, I used to watch 85 South Show and just kick. Shout out to that boy McCoy. Shout out to you, boy, for all the people in the army, man. They watch 85 South? Oh, yeah. Shout out to everybody in the military, man. I didn't know what famous in the army. Everybody know me in the military. Really? I'm that story that they use, like, in soldiers used for clap back to their sergeant when they be like, you can't make it outside his military. Because that's what they would tell us while we were inside. Like, they'll be cut because they need scare tactics in order to keep you in. It's called retention. So a lot of time they want to kind of instill that there's a no way out and we're going to take care of you tight. You know what I'm saying? We all we got. Yeah, like, don't worry. We going to give you these benefits. We going to give you this and that. There's no reason to leave. Do your 20, you know what I'm saying? But make sure you're the best tip top soldier. Now, if you're a bad soldier, they will want you to get out. Right. But the good soldiers, man, they won't ever do anything to keep you in. That's what I'm saying. I guess. Dang, you got me thinking about the military. I used to do a lot of shows for the military. Yeah. There's a lot of little Hispanic girls in there with fat little asses, too. That's the part of the military they don't tell you. But you got a wife, I said. I've seen the military basis. There's some fat asses in the United States armed services. I've seen them. Some of the fat asses in our country has the offer of serving this country. I've been to Kuwait. I've been on the base. I've seen some shit. What's up, Cable? Like, Mr. Officer, like, Lil Wayne, you feel the machine on your arm, you know what I'm saying? I ain't want to fuck with you. Them chicks who've been in the military, they be ready to get out of that shit. They want you to see how fine they are with their shit on them. Like, they be like, this my work shit. Wait till the night when they come to the show. And then you be like, shit. That's what you had, a new big-ass pants? Been over there. You know, I've been in the military six years, so, you know. You miss it? Oh, no. But I do. I will say this. I do miss the competitiveness when we would do PT and all that. And just how pure it was. Like, we weren't worried about who had more money than the other person. We weren't worried about nothing. We grown as me and playing like kids, having fun. Like, we in the field, like, wrestling, playing. Like, no homo, no shit like that. No, I'm saying, like, why shit is real? Niggas is out there with an ammo and shit? Like, come on. You can't get me. I mean, we been. We been, well, it just, you know, we just doing a lot of competitive stuff, like obstacle course. And we just made, it really reminded me that we was a kid and we would just make up stuff. And that's all we did in the military, just make up shit to do every day. That's literally all we got there to be. Look, there's no war going on. So everything they doing right now is made up. I'm telling you, like, it's a random BS, like, most, well, not most, but like, some people actually have tasks. They, you know what I'm saying, but I'm telling you, bro, like, if you see some of these bases in unit, bro, they making up shit. They just making up tasks to do every day. And I was in one of those units. We made up shit, but it was fun. Man, this some good ass weed. This some good ass weed. Black-owned weed. It's black-owned. Damn. Ain't gonna lie. Shout out to Niggas. And it's coming from Detroit. You feel me? So that's how we doing it. Yeah. I knew this was some Detroit weed. Soon as I lit it, it was like, what up, though? So you know, what they do is, he grows it there because it's legal. Yeah. So yeah. I love going to Detroit. And that's why, like, anytime you get some weed in Detroit, they give you way more than you expected to get. I've never been to Detroit. Why not? I don't know, like, I never really had an interest, but I like Chicago. Go to Detroit. It's just like, you can feel the spirit of blackness. It's Motown. But Detroit got some of the prettiest black women in America. Tell me. I love Motown music. You got to go to Motown. It's the real Motocity. I love all old-school music, man. You got to be on that shit. Have you been to, well, you got to go to, you got to go. All right, man. I need to definitely get these shirts all of them. Yeah, them shirts, actually, $3,000 apiece, man. We probably got your size, too, man. And them shirts, that's them exclusive. They told me a lesson. I ain't got no money. I don't know what to say. They told me a lesson. Yeah, I'm sure. That's not the prime collection, bro. Them NFTs right there, bro. They said the NFTs. Yeah, man, them ain't on the streets yet. But we probably got your size, man, if you want to go ahead and cop from an exclusive collection of shit. Right, they don't say it. You know how we get down, man. Yeah, I learned a lesson from Carlo, man. I'm telling you. That's rude. No, don't tell no black people you got money. Bruh, I don't give a fuck if you make $100 million, man. Now, that's my only way. But let me tell you, there's certain things as a black man that you have to do for the ancestors, bro. You got to have some money saved up somewhere in the house. You got to have a sock just like for your granddad and them. It's like how you bring good spirits in the house. You remember when you was a barber? Granddad always had some money. You get what I'm saying? You get exactly what I'm saying. Honestly, yeah, I do feel like we need to carry some traditions. We do. Like, even if they don't make sense. You know what I'm saying? Like, let's just carry this on. You feel me? Like, get in a switch. Exactly. And you don't want to whoop your child ass. You feel me? Like, that's a tradition. You know what I mean? Like, child abuse is a tradition. Yeah, you feel me? We definitely got to bring some traditions in, man. Not child abuse, though. We're going to stop whooping kids. White people don't whoop their kids. What the fuck are our kids got to act good for? We out here trying to be good for nothing. Even whooping our kids know God damn, motherfucker. Put them in time out. Stop hitting black children. Look how many of us fucked up right now. One ass whooping. That one real ass whooping that you will never forget. Oh, yeah, you don't forget. That's the shit you need to go to therapy for. Right, fuck it now. Hey, do you think ass whooping's a PTSD? Fuck yeah. Any time you get out of it, it's PTSD. I just thought of that. Damn. So we got a lot of discipline and spying. But we'll be over whooping our goddamn kids, man. Damn, we got a lot of discussions in the black community. We need to talk about our whoopings, PTSD. Yes, yes. Being hit with shit is PTSD. And plus. Yeah, you never do forget them, though. So they got to be PTSD. You're the only people you can hit. Does it make us, let me say why. Nobody else in the world can you hit anybody. You're an adult. You can't just hit motherfuckers because the shit not going your way. No, you don't get your ass. Nigga, in America, we're not worth it. You don't even know that. We're not in the world. And we don't even know that. Everywhere else in the world, you'll get your ass. We don't know that. The people everywhere else in the world are going to be watching us. This is bullshit. You have a right to define yourself. If your mother hits you, hit the bitch back. He ain't never seen that before. Let no one disrespect you. Damn, you better know. What do African fathers look as, boy? And that's why the family hates them. That's true, though. Nobody loves their African father. It is true, God damn. You're right about that, boy. They do think God damn like him. African fathers die to be like eight people at the funeral. That brother he ain't seen in 10 years. Some family from out of town that y'all don't know. And y'all, that's it. Man, the world fucked up. And I'm just here to tell you about it. Ladies and gentlemen, this has been another episode of The Black Market. We're smoking black weed with black invasions. My man, Aristotle, from the South Side, bruh. Much love and much success to you, fam. I know that. Yeah, we out of here. We out.
