[SPEAKER_00]: Yo, I want to thank everyone at the top of today's show.
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to thank everyone who took the time to complete the survey.
[SPEAKER_00]: My team and I sent out a few weeks ago, Ashley, about a month or so ago, reading through your responses reminded me exactly why we do what we do and why I'm back in school and why I'm always trying to study and to find things to help you because so many of you are simply trying to get to the other side of watch this financial freedom.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I want to make sure that
[SPEAKER_00]: Not just myself, but the team that are building and how we're restructuring this company, we're giving you the content, the tools, and the resources necessary to help you get to the other side of freedom, to have more inspiration, but also to obtain every single thing that you desire when it comes to your financial freedom, because you already know.
[SPEAKER_00]: My mission, our company's mission, moving forward is to help Black and Brown communities eliminate one billion dollars in debt and build five hundred million dollars in wealth by twenty-fifty.
[SPEAKER_00]: And if we're going to hit this goal, we've got to start tackling and taking practical steps.
[SPEAKER_00]: in the right direction.
[SPEAKER_00]: And so, I want to start today's thing off by pretty much saying, why tin k?
[SPEAKER_00]: Why is having ten thousand dollars a game changer?
[SPEAKER_00]: Everybody talks about wanting a million dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: But most people get stuck at just five hundred or thousand dollars saved.
[SPEAKER_00]: Why?
[SPEAKER_00]: Simple.
[SPEAKER_00]: Because they don't know how to bridge the gap.
[SPEAKER_00]: By the end of today's episode, you're going to know how to bridge the gap.
[SPEAKER_00]: Ten thousand dollars is more than just a number.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a lifestyle shift.
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to pause before I keep going on, but I want you to think about, what could you do?
[SPEAKER_00]: How would you feel?
[SPEAKER_00]: How would you walk into your job?
[SPEAKER_00]: How would you go to sleep knowing that you have ten thousand dollars just sitting
[SPEAKER_00]: in a high-o save as a count and you still got money your regular checking account to pay your bills.
[SPEAKER_00]: How would you feel?
[SPEAKER_00]: It's freedom from late fees.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's freedom from living paycheck to paycheck.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's breathing room when life throws you a curveball, like car trouble, medical bills, your son or your daughter gets sick and you've got to rush to the hospital.
[SPEAKER_00]: You need to take off a day or two to take care of your kids and you may not have the PTO, but you've got the money.
[SPEAKER_00]: You see, having extra ten thousand miles to sit inside the savings account, it gives you power.
[SPEAKER_00]: You can walk away from these toxic jobs that some of you all are on.
[SPEAKER_00]: You can negotiate with confidence.
[SPEAKER_00]: You can take smarter risk.
[SPEAKER_00]: You see, five hundred dollars solves small problems.
[SPEAKER_00]: A thousand dollars gives you a little bit bigger, but ten thousand, that solves real problems.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like a job loss.
[SPEAKER_00]: and major emergency or even see money for a business.
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's be honest, most people are stressed and stuck in the paycheck to paycheck cycle because they were never taught of money actually worth.
[SPEAKER_00]: That is exactly why I built this channel.

[SPEAKER_00]: And let me go deep.
[SPEAKER_00]: And let me go spear with Joe here.
[SPEAKER_00]: Ten thousand dollars to eat me.
[SPEAKER_00]: Seed money.
[SPEAKER_00]: for a spiritual awakening.
[SPEAKER_00]: I try to be very careful when I talk about this as far as I'm like sewing seeds, you know, because I think sometimes the Christian world we could over talk, but I really do believe in sewing seeds.
[SPEAKER_00]: And it's not just sewing seed into the church or into the managot or into offering, but so long as he could be, hey man, I see a homeless person.
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember one day I was, I got some pants out of the washer.
[SPEAKER_00]: And when I took the pants out of the washer, there was a tuna dollar bill laying inside of the dryer.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was a man shoot.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, okay, cool great.
[SPEAKER_00]: So I put it back in my pocket for the day.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm in that night.
[SPEAKER_00]: I was on the phone.
[SPEAKER_00]: My cousin asked you my cousin, my favorite cousin, Lakisha.
[SPEAKER_00]: And there was his homeless lady, and I normally do not give.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm going off subject care, but I'm coming back.
[SPEAKER_00]: I normally do not give money to people on the street.
[SPEAKER_00]: And the only time I would do it is if I feel the Holy Spirit telling me in my gut to give.
[SPEAKER_00]: I've
[SPEAKER_00]: Peacock, I guess I'm not good.
[SPEAKER_00]: I keep my windows rolled up, but on this one particular day, there's his black lady, she did not move.
[SPEAKER_00]: She didn't come up to the car, she wasn't harassing.
[SPEAKER_00]: I wasn't even looking at her.
[SPEAKER_00]: Hold the spear hit, so we'll see it into her life.
[SPEAKER_00]: I said, I said, I ain't got no cash and any hit me.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, she did.
[SPEAKER_00]: You got twenty dollars inside your pocket.
[SPEAKER_00]: I waited, light turned green, all this way I said, do not move until you saw a seed into her life.
[SPEAKER_00]: I took twenty dollars out, I gave it to her.
[SPEAKER_00]: It went on about my day and I don't know why, but I felt good.
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't know what she did with that twenty dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: I honestly don't care what she did with that twenty dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's the fact that I saw the seed and I was obedient and watched this.
[SPEAKER_00]: I had the financial means to do so without even thinking, without even blinking, without even hurting my pocket.
[SPEAKER_00]: You see, ten thousand dollars solves real problems.
[SPEAKER_00]: And once you hit that mark, everything changes mentally, emotionally, financially.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I can even say this sometimes even spiritually.
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay?
[SPEAKER_00]: So I wanna give you the fifty-two rule, the fifty-two rule, and this is gonna be your secret weapon.
[SPEAKER_00]: All right?
[SPEAKER_00]: If you all noticed, man, I'm sipping up some things on how we're teaching, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm still believing in what I'm teaching, but I'm really trying to make sure I'm giving you all some practical things.
[SPEAKER_00]: So how do we get to ten thousand dollars?
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't need to be rich.
[SPEAKER_00]: If we're gonna eliminate a billion dollars in debt,
[SPEAKER_00]: and build a half a billion dollars in wealth by twenty-fifty.
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't need to be rich.
[SPEAKER_00]: We need a strategy.
[SPEAKER_00]: We need a plan.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I call this the fifty-two-roll strategy.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's how beginners can say ten thousand dollars in fifty-two weeks.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is how I say ten thousand dollars within less than a year.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I want to be honest with you all.
[SPEAKER_00]: I got way over ten thousand dollars in my personal savings account right now, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: It feels good.
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember, I don't say this respectfully.
[SPEAKER_00]: I remember when I was transitioning out of my own and some comments was made, you know, like, hey, man, we hope you don't become homeless again.
[SPEAKER_00]: And, man, are you sure you're making a right decision?
[SPEAKER_00]: We don't want you.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was laughing because no one knew that I had savings inside of my savings account.
[SPEAKER_00]: No one knew that I had a bank.
[SPEAKER_00]: sitting inside of my savings account.
[SPEAKER_00]: So while I was sitting there just laughing while people were giving me their thoughts in their opinion, in my head I was laughing, but on the external watch this I was like, okay man, man, I mean me too.
[SPEAKER_00]: I hope I don't become homeless.
[SPEAKER_00]: Inside of my head I'm like y'all Negroes just really don't know.
[SPEAKER_00]: But I'm gonna play the game.
[SPEAKER_00]: Because I already got it already told me what was gonna happen.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I wasn't perfect, perfect person.
[SPEAKER_00]: No, I had some issues I was working through, but I was still God, son of he still told me yo, I got something not better, but I have something different that I need you to do moving forward.
[SPEAKER_00]: So I need you to get prepared.
[SPEAKER_00]: So I knew I had to start stacking money.
[SPEAKER_00]: I sold my house, moved into a town home, pocketed all that money, because I knew what was coming.
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, family, let me keep it real with you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right now.
[SPEAKER_00]: You see, most people avoid talking about life insurance because it's uncomfortable.
[SPEAKER_00]: It takes forever to get approved.
[SPEAKER_00]: And honestly, it feels like you're planning for the worst.
[SPEAKER_00]: Totally get it, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: But I see an exact same thing.
[SPEAKER_00]: Here's what changed in my mind.
[SPEAKER_00]: You see, forty percent of Americans don't have life insurance at all.
[SPEAKER_00]: The ones who do, their policies are usually worth just two times their annual salary.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's nowhere near enough money to protect your family, to protect the people who you say you love.
[SPEAKER_00]: Can you know me?
[SPEAKER_00]: I don't partner with just anybody.
[SPEAKER_00]: But when I found eat them, I got my own two million dollar policy because they made it extremely simple.
[SPEAKER_00]: No medical exams, no blood tests, no waiting weeks.
[SPEAKER_00]: I literally got covered in ten minutes from my phone.
[SPEAKER_00]: No life.
[SPEAKER_00]: Over two thousand families get approved through ethos every single day.
[SPEAKER_00]: They've got an A plus rating with the better business bureau and four point eight out of five stars on trust pop.
[SPEAKER_00]: These aren't just numbers.
[SPEAKER_00]: These are real families getting protected right now.
[SPEAKER_00]: Mr. Biden's turn is raised to go up and by eight to ten percent every single year you wait.
[SPEAKER_00]: The same policy I got a few years ago will cost me way more if I applied to that.
[SPEAKER_00]: Your family's financial security should never depend on your paycheck alone.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's not building well.
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't wait until it's too late.

[SPEAKER_00]: Week five through eight.
[SPEAKER_00]: I need you to save seventy five dollars a week.
[SPEAKER_00]: Week nine through twelve.
[SPEAKER_00]: I need you to save a hundred dollars a week.
[SPEAKER_00]: Uh-oh, y'all starting to sweat.
[SPEAKER_00]: Y'all starting to sweat.
[SPEAKER_00]: Wait a minute, Anthony.
[SPEAKER_00]: Wait a minute.
[SPEAKER_00]: We ain't done.
[SPEAKER_00]: Weeks start teeth through sixteen.
[SPEAKER_00]: I need you to save a hundred and twenty five dollars a week.
[SPEAKER_00]: Weeks seventeen through twenty.
[SPEAKER_00]: I need you to save a hundred and fifty dollars a week.
[SPEAKER_00]: Weeks twenty one through twenty four.
[SPEAKER_00]: I need you to save a hundred and seventy five dollars a week.
[SPEAKER_00]: You all see where I'm going here?
[SPEAKER_00]: We reached twenty five through twenty eight.
[SPEAKER_00]: I need to say two hundred dollars a week.
[SPEAKER_00]: We reached twenty nine through thirty two.
[SPEAKER_00]: I need to say two hundred and twenty five dollars a week and we throw thirty three through thirty six.
[SPEAKER_00]: I need to say two hundred and fifty dollars a week.
[SPEAKER_00]: As you all can see, we're going up every single week.
[SPEAKER_00]: Twenty five dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: Thirty seven through forty.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to be two seventy five weeks set forty one through forty four.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's going to be going to set set aside three hundred dollars a week.
[SPEAKER_00]: Paul's Anthony three hundred dollars a week.
[SPEAKER_00]: What are you talking about?
[SPEAKER_00]: I know.
[SPEAKER_00]: Stick with me weeks forty five to forty eight.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's three hundred and twenty-five a week, forty-nine through fifty-two, three hundred and fifty dollars a week.
[SPEAKER_00]: This gives you a grand total of ten thousand four hundred dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yes, you will actually come up with an extra four hundred dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: The beauty of the system is that it starts very small.
[SPEAKER_00]: Then gradually builds as you discipline and income grows.
[SPEAKER_00]: It pushes you just enough without overwhelming you.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm saying, again, I know the fifty-two rule is a push rule.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to stretch you rule.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's going to make you start looking at certain things.
[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to talk about that here in a little bit.
[SPEAKER_00]: This system is not, it's not about easy.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's about, here's a strategy, here's the system.
[SPEAKER_00]: You gotta figure out how do you work the system.
[SPEAKER_00]: And let me tell you, this plan doesn't just help you save money, but it motivates you to start earning more so you can hit your weekly goals.
[SPEAKER_00]: First week, fifty.
[SPEAKER_00]: That should be easy.
[SPEAKER_00]: whether that's picking up some freelance work, selling unused stuff, or cutting back temporarily, it all adds up.
[SPEAKER_00]: One of the things I want to recommend that you all do, hold on a minute and take my juice.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'll tell you, I'm drinking.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm absolutely happy.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm actually happy because I was just telling the Ed our video guy, I weighed in this morning.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm down to a hundred and eighty pounds.
[SPEAKER_00]: When I weighed in last week, I was at a hundred and eighty two pounds.
[SPEAKER_00]: But my muscle mass went up by four pounds.
[SPEAKER_00]: And my body fat went down by five pounds.
[SPEAKER_00]: But my overall weight only down by one and a half pound.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was talking to my coach.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was talking to Ed.
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, yeah, man, your body is letting us know.
[SPEAKER_00]: you know you're you're you're a light but you have it because of the muscles and so I'm eating healthy working out more lived in more weight and not so I got to I got to stay on this thing all right so
[SPEAKER_00]: One of the things I don't want to have is to suggest that you do.
[SPEAKER_00]: Why are you on this fifty two week, fifty two week rule?
[SPEAKER_00]: I want you to download our wealth tracker tool.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is going to also help you stay on pace.
[SPEAKER_00]: Help you see where your money is going.
[SPEAKER_00]: Help you track it because I really want to pause.
[SPEAKER_00]: I want you to pause.
[SPEAKER_00]: Go to anthonymail.com for slash store and you'll be able to buy the wealth tracker tool.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's like nine, ten bucks.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not a lot.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's not a lot of money, but you gotta do this so you can track it, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: But I want you to pause and think about it.
[SPEAKER_00]: So matter of fact, we're gonna put up a ten second timer right now.
[SPEAKER_00]: Let's put up a ten second timer.
[SPEAKER_00]: One thing about, how would you feel this time next year?
[SPEAKER_00]: Have a full check in account, but then you also have the extra ten thousand dollars who's sitting inside of your savings account that you're not spending every month.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's just growing compound interest because you have it parked inside of a high yield savings account like so far.
[SPEAKER_00]: I want you to answer that question right now.
[SPEAKER_00]: Ten second timer up right now.
[SPEAKER_00]: And if you answer that, put it inside the comment section if you're watching this on YouTube.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you're watching this live, put it inside the chat.
[SPEAKER_00]: How would you feel?
[SPEAKER_00]: Knowing that you got ten racks, ten thousand dollars sitting inside the savings?
[SPEAKER_00]: Would you go back to that job that's treating you like crap?
[SPEAKER_00]: Would you start that business?
[SPEAKER_00]: How would you feel?
[SPEAKER_00]: What's going to happen?
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to thank my friends who are doubly for sponsoring today's episode.
[SPEAKER_00]: You see with rising rent, inflation, and high interest rates, your credit score matters more than ever.
[SPEAKER_00]: Whether you are trying to buy a home or just qualify for an apartment, it all starts honestly having good credit.
[SPEAKER_00]: You see, this is where my friend and dogly AI comes in.
[SPEAKER_00]: Watch this.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a hundred percent free app that helps you build, fix, monitor, and even protect your credit.
[SPEAKER_00]: With no confusion and no stress, just smart AI power support that works.
[SPEAKER_00]: A hundred percent
[SPEAKER_00]: consumer debt free.
[SPEAKER_00]: EWI helps you build credit fast, helps you fix errors quickly, and stay protected with weekly updates, real time alerts, and here's the best part about it, a one million dollar ID theft insurance policy.
[SPEAKER_00]: Here's what I'm up about, Doc.
[SPEAKER_00]: On average, users are saying about three or four points.
[SPEAKER_00]: Go up when it comes to your credit report.
[SPEAKER_00]: No credit card required.
[SPEAKER_00]: And premium members' average in any two-point boost on their credit score.
[SPEAKER_00]: The better your score, the more you say.
[SPEAKER_00]: And the more you get approved.
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, I need you to go check out my friends over at anthonyl.com, four-slast.
[SPEAKER_00]: Again, that is anthonyonyl.com, D-O-V-L-I.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you're tired of hearing no, because it'd be credit scores, it's time to take control with my friends.
[SPEAKER_00]: We'll check them out right now, and let's get back to today's show.
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, I'm one of the most crucial things about this, if we're going to get why a ten thousand dollars is such a game changer, because it builds speeds.
[SPEAKER_00]: You want to speed up the process?
[SPEAKER_00]: And we tell you, throughout these fifty two weeks, you need to put your money inside of a high-year savings account.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is going to build speed.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is going to get you to your ten thousand dollars even quicker because I'm going to teach you how to get free money within these fifty two weeks.
[SPEAKER_00]: Put your money inside of a high yo saves account like so far.
[SPEAKER_00]: You see because as your balance grows, so does your interest.
[SPEAKER_00]: That means your money is working for you even like your sleep.
[SPEAKER_00]: Every single day, every single week, every single month.
[SPEAKER_00]: When you put that first five hundred dollars in there at so far, they're giving you four percent.
[SPEAKER_00]: When you get to a thousand, they're giving you four percent.
[SPEAKER_00]: When you get to a two thousand one hundred dollars, they're giving you four percent and two thousand one hundred dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: This is not a git rich quick trick.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's a wealth string.
[SPEAKER_00]: So again, I personally use so far.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's easy to use and it pays you solid interest.
[SPEAKER_00]: All right, I do is go to anthonyl.com forward slash so far.
[SPEAKER_00]: Again, that is anthonyonyl.com forward slash so far.
[SPEAKER_00]: And they're going to not only just give you four percent interest, but they're going to give you a three hundred dollar bonus just for signing up.
[SPEAKER_00]: Let me say this one more time.
[SPEAKER_00]: The goal is ten thousand dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: Okay?
[SPEAKER_00]: Ten thousand dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: Now, if you really do the math, you're only going to have to put in close to about nine thousand dollars of your money because if you owe them a so far account and you do it directly, deposit
[SPEAKER_00]: They're going to give it three hundred.
[SPEAKER_00]: So now we're down to ninety seven hundred dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: As you're putting money in there and as you're growing, you're going to get seven hundred dollars over this year in interest.
[SPEAKER_00]: Three money.
[SPEAKER_00]: So now I just gave you a thousand dollars and three money.
[SPEAKER_00]: Now you got nine thousand ones.
[SPEAKER_00]: You had to put in.
[SPEAKER_00]: You got to etch a thousand.
[SPEAKER_00]: Now watch what happens when you get done.
[SPEAKER_00]: You had ten thousand four hundred.
[SPEAKER_00]: Now you're getting four percent.
[SPEAKER_00]: every month on ten thousand four hundred dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: Now again, this is not a gift rich quick-screen scheme, but this is to the math.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you've got ten thousand dollars, ten thousand four hundred dollars, times out by four percent, that means every single month you're getting four hundred and six ten dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: Free money.
[SPEAKER_00]: Do the math yourself.
[SPEAKER_00]: ten thousand four hundred dollars times four percent is four hundred and sixteen dollars every single mile.
[SPEAKER_00]: And here's another tip.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you get a bonus shit, if you have a garage sale, if you get birthday gifts, a get birthday money.
[SPEAKER_00]: On your birthday to help you pay, don't buy me anything.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm trying to hit my ten thousand dollar gold.
[SPEAKER_00]: Don't be ashamed to say it.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm trying to hit my savings gold.
[SPEAKER_00]: Whatever you're going to spend on the gift can you just give it to me?
[SPEAKER_00]: Cash.
[SPEAKER_00]: So I can put inside my sofa or
[SPEAKER_00]: and give them your while your information.
[SPEAKER_00]: Tell me, hey, just wire them money.
[SPEAKER_00]: A station money, stop my account if you don't want to see it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Right now, we've got to change.
[SPEAKER_00]: We're going to change how we're seeing money.
[SPEAKER_00]: Do not spend it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Deposit it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Even just five hundred dollars in unexpected cash.
[SPEAKER_00]: Cash can save weeks off of your timeline.
[SPEAKER_00]: You saw the map?
[SPEAKER_00]: It can save you four weeks.
[SPEAKER_00]: If you put the five hundred dollars in there.
[SPEAKER_00]: How long does it amount?
[SPEAKER_00]: Five hundred.
[SPEAKER_00]: Times four percent.
[SPEAKER_00]: It's extra twenty dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: So technically you just put five hundred and twenty dollars inside your account.
[SPEAKER_00]: Now.
[SPEAKER_00]: What changes after you hit ten thousand dollars?
[SPEAKER_00]: You see, once you hit that ten thousand dollars, here's what's going to happen.
[SPEAKER_00]: You worry less about money.
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't rely on credit cards or payday loan advances for emergencies.
[SPEAKER_00]: You feel secure knowing you've got your own back.
[SPEAKER_00]: You can say no to job offers that don't even value you or job offers who do not even respect your gift.
[SPEAKER_00]: A ten thousand dollar becomes your foundation to build on it.
[SPEAKER_00]: When I first stepped out of my own, I had a little over, not a little over.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, I had a little over twenty five thousand dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: I say I had a lot over that, you know, I had a good amount of money in my savings account because I saved money from the sell ago, my house.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I just, I've always practiced in the emergency fund, right?
[SPEAKER_00]: And nothing negative about my previous place.
[SPEAKER_00]: I want to say that clearly, that nothing negative.
[SPEAKER_00]: But every time I walk into that building and I want to say this correctly, because again, this is nothing negative about where I used to work at.
[SPEAKER_00]: nothing negative about none of my previous churches, jobs, careers, none of that.
[SPEAKER_00]: But I remember walking into one of my jobs.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I was nervous because every time I got an email, every time I got a text from my boss or from, you know, my pastor or one of the elders or CEO of the company, I would get nervous because I was one of my in my in trouble and my in my body too already.
[SPEAKER_00]: But I let me go.
[SPEAKER_00]: I would get nervous.
[SPEAKER_00]: And the reason why I got nervous when I
[SPEAKER_00]: who learned more about money.
[SPEAKER_00]: It wasn't because I was gonna lose the job.
[SPEAKER_00]: It was because I didn't have money to live if I lost a job.
[SPEAKER_00]: So I'll never forget when I got to about back then I was really practicing three to six months of expenses.
[SPEAKER_00]: I got to six months of expenses and my savings account.
[SPEAKER_00]: Man, I honestly didn't care.
[SPEAKER_00]: I was like, let me go.
[SPEAKER_00]: I could live for six months.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I didn't walk in nervous.
[SPEAKER_00]: I wasn't nervous if I got a text message from my boss.
[SPEAKER_00]: I wasn't nervous if I got an email saying, hey, I need to talk to you.
[SPEAKER_00]: Like, I really wasn't nervous.
[SPEAKER_00]: When I transitioned out of my own, the nervous part was not.
[SPEAKER_00]: Oh, my gosh, I don't have this.
[SPEAKER_00]: The nervous part was how do I navigate moving forward the right way?
[SPEAKER_00]: The nervousness wasn't, I didn't have money to live.
[SPEAKER_00]: The nervous part wasn't, I couldn't go to the golf course and golf, I couldn't, you know, go out to eat, I couldn't date, no, the nervous part for me was okay.
[SPEAKER_00]: I can live for six months.
[SPEAKER_00]: If I have no other money coming in.
[SPEAKER_00]: But God, how do I build a business?
[SPEAKER_00]: How do I get to next stage of my life?
[SPEAKER_00]: That was the nervous part.
[SPEAKER_00]: But the majority of people are nervous because they don't have a thousand dollars and they don't know how they're gonna pay their bills next month.
[SPEAKER_00]: So when you have ten thousand dollars and that becomes your foundation, know it's not to end all beyond, know you're not super rich, but you've proven to yourself that you could do it.
[SPEAKER_00]: And from there, saving fifteen thousand, extra five thousand, extra ten thousand, to twenty thousand dollars, and beyond it feels out, it doesn't feel out of reach.
[SPEAKER_00]: I call that cushion.
[SPEAKER_00]: It takes you back off the wall, and I don't know about y'all.
[SPEAKER_00]: When you can come off the wall and experience life, it just changes every single thing.
[SPEAKER_00]: Even right now.
[SPEAKER_00]: My company has up and down, up and down much.
[SPEAKER_00]: One month, we'll make two, three hundred thousand in the next month.
[SPEAKER_00]: We're only made sixty thousand.
[SPEAKER_00]: We're only made fifty thousand.
[SPEAKER_00]: Some of y'all said, oh my God, I wish I could make fifty thousand dollars.
[SPEAKER_00]: Yeah, yeah.
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't, you don't have expenses.
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't have payroll.
[SPEAKER_00]: You don't have a building.
[SPEAKER_00]: You got to pay for work.
[SPEAKER_00]: And that's taxes.
[SPEAKER_00]: That's gross.
[SPEAKER_00]: So fifty thousand dollars in one month.
[SPEAKER_00]: Technically there's no profit to Anthony or Neil.
[SPEAKER_00]: which is why I am very strategic about saving on my personal life and living below my means.
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, as for coming to a close of today's show, this is not about luck.
[SPEAKER_00]: If we as a community is going to build and to eliminate one billion dollars in debt and black and brown communities and build a half a billion dollars in love by twenty-fifty, this is about strategic plans and consistency.
[SPEAKER_00]: Listen, you can do this.
[SPEAKER_00]: You are not behind.
[SPEAKER_00]: You're not even disqualified.
[SPEAKER_00]: You just need the plan, the system and the belief.
[SPEAKER_00]: Ten thousand dollars might seem like a mountain right now.
[SPEAKER_00]: But by the end of the fifty two weeks, it could be and it will be your starting point.
[SPEAKER_00]: Man, I wish I had a fifty two week save PDF.
[SPEAKER_00]: Maybe I might do it.
[SPEAKER_00]: Look inside the show notes.
[SPEAKER_00]: I might just do it at the last minute.
[SPEAKER_00]: I might put something together for you all because I shot this and as I'm shooting on my man, we should have a fifty-two week printout calendar so you all can track it.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm much out of posted if you doubt if I could get it in a show by time by the time this comes out.
[SPEAKER_00]: I want you to print it out and I want you to post it on your mirror.
[SPEAKER_00]: I want you to post it on your refrigerator and every single time you do it, I want you to check it off.
[SPEAKER_00]: I want you to check it off.
[SPEAKER_00]: And I'm going to take a picture, Stan Anthony, we're doing it.
[SPEAKER_00]: We're doing it.
[SPEAKER_00]: So listen, um, um, um, look, look, look inside the show notes for today and see if you see the fifty two week PDF.
[SPEAKER_00]: Um, and, uh, I'm going to try and work on that.
[SPEAKER_00]: I'm going to try, I'm going to really try and work on that for real.
[SPEAKER_00]: I feel very passionate about this.
[SPEAKER_00]: I just thought about this idea after shooting.
[SPEAKER_00]: this show.
