Speaker 1: Wake that answer in the morning.
Speaker 2: Breakfast Club. Yeah, I'm Charlamagne to God. Justs hilarious. We
Speaker 2: are to Breakfast Club. India is not here at the moment,
Speaker 2: but we have a special guest in the building. He's
Speaker 2: been here before a couple of times. Jordan Belfer.
Speaker 3: What's that's up? Everybody?
Speaker 1: You guys are looking good today?
Speaker 2: You know how you feeling.
Speaker 3: I'm feeling good.
Speaker 1: Listen for a couple.
Speaker 3: Got a big surgery about three rotate a cuff right,
Speaker 3: and uh had a grabs that took. I had to
Speaker 3: take muscle from my laps and my Peck's a big deal.
Speaker 3: But I'm on the men there, so I'm solids or
Speaker 3: rock and right all rehab something rehab, do that and
Speaker 3: I do it. Yeah, a lot of golf, weightlifting, and
Speaker 3: I wrestled in college and I just had three surgeries
Speaker 3: before this. It was just like.
Speaker 4: Totally wearing tear.
Speaker 3: Yeah, wearing tear. Yeah.
Speaker 2: Justin's never met you before, but she did see The
Speaker 2: Wolf of Walls.
Speaker 1: Yes, and you're the real I'm the real wolf. I'm
Speaker 1: retired wolf, you know, the more benevolent wolf.
Speaker 3: Yeah. It was a great movie. And uh, the thing
Speaker 3: with that movie is interesting for me is that like
Speaker 3: that those those events took place thirty years ago, but
Speaker 3: like because the movie came out in twenty and thirteen,
Speaker 3: it's still on TV. He was like, no, that happened
Speaker 3: like three weeks ago, right, like like is your daughter
Speaker 3: still three years old?
Speaker 1: My daughter's thirty.
Speaker 3: I have a grandson. So it's pretty funny.
Speaker 2: You know, I don't think after where you got the
Speaker 2: wolf from? Where did the wolf come from?
Speaker 3: Believe it or not, the wolf came from a show
Speaker 3: you don't watch, Jolligan's Island, Okay, So I mean the
Speaker 3: character Thirst and how the third is nickname was the
Speaker 3: Wolf of Wall Street.
Speaker 1: So it's like a joke about that. Yeah yeah, uh huh.
Speaker 4: So about the movie, how much of it was like
Speaker 4: really vinced? Like was it that? Was any of it
Speaker 4: add ons or like?
Speaker 3: So I was saying, like I said, ninety percent of
Speaker 3: it was true and this stuff and my life was
Speaker 3: probably even more insane because it was stuff that you
Speaker 3: just couldn't put on screen, would be X ray.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm not bad, right, but the stuff that.
Speaker 3: Wasn't true, it was a lot of like characters, well
Speaker 3: like there collapse three people's actions into one character like
Speaker 3: Danny character got it was bad. Danny did it right?
Speaker 3: You know that was a diy Jonah Hill character, right,
Speaker 3: and they moved the tomeline around, but by and large
Speaker 3: it was really accurate.
Speaker 2: You know, you got a new book out called The
Speaker 2: Wolf of Investing. What came out fall the last year.
Speaker 2: My inside is playbook for making a fortune on Wall Street.
Speaker 2: You know the first thing people will say is why
Speaker 2: should you listen to him?
Speaker 1: Question? Big question.
Speaker 3: I think that you know, on some level, you know
Speaker 3: who better to expose what's going on on Wall Street?
Speaker 3: And someone that made the mistakes was parted on the inside,
Speaker 3: and and I think, you know, it's funny people say,
Speaker 3: you don't why don't you have a write.
Speaker 1: About the stock book? And I never did before.
Speaker 3: So my all my books about before was a bit
Speaker 3: about sales or my life story. Right. But you know,
Speaker 3: obviously I have massive knowledge about Wall Street around one
Speaker 3: of the largest drums on Wall Street in the nineties,
Speaker 3: the in the you know, IPO market.
Speaker 1: But I never thought of writing a book.
Speaker 3: But I think over the last since I started going
Speaker 3: out in two thousand and eight around the world and
Speaker 3: teaching sales and entrepreneurship, ethical sales, and I really helped
Speaker 3: millions and millions of people. And I think I've rebuilt
Speaker 3: my reputation to the point where I have a very
Speaker 3: large fan base who trusts me, and I've helped so
Speaker 3: many people. Like when I walk around people, so you
Speaker 3: changed my life, you change as I walk around people
Speaker 3: always if you changed my life. You know, I went
Speaker 3: into this business closing why Entrepreneurship, and I felt that
Speaker 3: it was like, you know, I felt comfortable enough.
Speaker 1: You know, I'm going to talk about investing.
Speaker 3: And I when I started writing the book, and I
Speaker 3: wrote what I considered to be the surest book of
Speaker 3: investing in they ha'ds so like unarguably the right way
Speaker 3: for someone to get welthing in the stock market. And
Speaker 3: it's eft opposite of everything I did back by the way,
Speaker 3: it's like the opposite of what I did when I
Speaker 3: actually went to check, like I was, you know, manipulating stocks.
Speaker 1: It's smaller stocks.
Speaker 3: The advice I'm giving in this book is really honestly,
Speaker 3: it's for any person of any age. Obviously the younger
Speaker 3: you thought, the better. But the thesis is as files,
Speaker 3: there's nothing any of that's revolutionary. It's just I wrote
Speaker 3: it in a really funny kind of laughed out loud,
Speaker 3: irreverent way, so people would kind of turn the page
Speaker 3: you made into a store because the truth is the
Speaker 3: best advice for investings out there. There's nothing you have
Speaker 3: to It's like I didn't do some analysis, like oh, eureka,
Speaker 3: I have this way. It's not like that.
Speaker 2: Okay, really, even with all this new stuff like bitcoin
Speaker 2: and you know, like that.
Speaker 3: So I listen in the book, I these two main
Speaker 3: investments I talk about. One is the S and P
Speaker 3: five hundred, which is an index, and so instead of
Speaker 3: buying just a random stock and try to trade in
Speaker 3: and out, which is a sucker's game by the way, right,
Speaker 3: And and what really bothers me and I have this
Speaker 3: big thing about cnbcing there and how they basically are
Speaker 3: like the worst thing that ever happened to the average investments.
Speaker 1: If you watch the CNBC, you'll.
Speaker 3: Think you can trade in and out of stocks short
Speaker 3: term to make money. And the fact is that the
Speaker 3: scientific academic studies going back to nineteen hundred that says
Speaker 3: it's virtually impossible.
Speaker 1: To make to beat the S and P. It's just
Speaker 1: like a pot.
Speaker 3: There's a few people that can do it right, and
Speaker 3: they're not taking It's like Warren Buffet if fews very few.
Speaker 3: No one could beat the S and P buy and launch, right,
Speaker 3: But if you watch the show, you'll think that's the
Speaker 3: best way to trade. To trade, go from oil into
Speaker 3: into crypto, from crypto into tech stocks, from tech stock
Speaker 3: into common and you're not gonna make money that way, right,
Speaker 3: So that one investment is the S and P.
Speaker 1: And I wrote the book.
Speaker 3: I think when I wrote the book, this was like
Speaker 3: thirty eight hundred and now it's five thousand, right. I
Speaker 3: also said bitcoin is a good investment, but small, like
Speaker 3: five to ten percent of your portfolio, right, the largest
Speaker 3: should be I think the S and P and at
Speaker 3: the time was twenty two thousand. Now it's seventy three thousand.
Speaker 3: But that doesn't the fact that I was right is
Speaker 3: irrelevant because it just as easily could have been down
Speaker 3: in one year. In other words, you can't look at
Speaker 3: investing as a one year proposition. I mean I wrote that,
Speaker 3: I said this is a bigcoin row I was twenty something.
Speaker 3: I think it's going higher, but it could be going lower.
Speaker 3: But I figured five to ten years from now it's
Speaker 3: massively higher. And the S and P was thirty eight hundred,
Speaker 3: and it might go to thirty six hundred. Maybe it's
Speaker 3: in four thousand. I an't think we go to five
Speaker 3: thousands and five thousand plus now. So I looked up
Speaker 3: like genius.
Speaker 1: That's not true.
Speaker 3: It could have easily been down. So you can't invest
Speaker 3: and worry about the price the next week, the next month,
Speaker 3: or even the next year. I believe the best way,
Speaker 3: especially people in that thirties, twenties, thirties, forties, even fifties, Right,
Speaker 3: you have to take a long term horizon and rely
Speaker 3: on what's called compounding. So with the S and P
Speaker 3: five hundred, the idea is that you know, you take
Speaker 3: the profits and you just let it as it compounds
Speaker 3: and get you're dividends. You reinvest the dividends, you let
Speaker 3: the compound over time, even though it only turns ten
Speaker 3: turns ten percent a year. So you say to yourself, like, well,
Speaker 3: ten percent a year, how do I get rich on
Speaker 3: ten percent a year?
Speaker 4: Right?
Speaker 3: If I put in thirty thousand dollars three grand, what
Speaker 3: does that do for me? Right? But what you don't
Speaker 3: realize is that the next year you have thirty three
Speaker 3: thousand and if it compounds, then you have a bit more.
Speaker 3: That compounding after it's like twenty years goes parabolic. So
Speaker 3: like literally, if you invest in like thirty thousand dollars
Speaker 3: in the S and P, and let's go back thirty
Speaker 3: years from thirty years ago, forty years ago, right, thirty
Speaker 3: thousand dollars two hundred dollars a weekend, you'd have like
Speaker 3: twenty five million dollars. Now it's like, and I just
Speaker 3: made that number up, so I could be off like
Speaker 3: five a table, but you're a massive amount of millions
Speaker 3: of dollars, right, So I think the trap that people
Speaker 3: forward to when they invest is they say, I only
Speaker 3: have five thousand dollars or ten thousand.
Speaker 1: I got to make a huge hit. I have to
Speaker 1: time the market.
Speaker 3: So they get trapped in trying to short term trade
Speaker 3: or they go on March and they get blown out
Speaker 3: and you can't. You could start with a small amount
Speaker 3: and end up with a huge amount if you have patience.
Speaker 3: That's what the book is about.
Speaker 4: Yeah, the key is patience.
Speaker 3: Patience and also that you know you're not going to
Speaker 3: beat the S and P five hundred. So the corner
Speaker 3: stone of your portfolio should be this and there's no
Speaker 3: fees attached to it. You put your money in, you
Speaker 3: let it ride. So it's like set it and forget.
Speaker 3: It's passive investing.
Speaker 2: Right, don't even put it in there, and don't even
Speaker 2: like you.
Speaker 3: Can't because the trap is is that you know, you
Speaker 3: think that you know, well, the market's gonna will bear market.
Speaker 1: Okay, fair enough, you have a bear market, but buy.
Speaker 3: You go back history historically it's always goes up over
Speaker 3: thirty years. So listen, it's possible the United States could
Speaker 3: be destroyed, but we have bigger problems than than your portfolio. Right,
Speaker 3: So that's that's the essence of the book. But also
Speaker 3: I go through a very very damning history and historically
Speaker 3: about Wall Street, how it got so fucked up? Okay,
Speaker 3: I go through that in detail, and it's pretty while
Speaker 3: when you read, like why is it that, like, you know,
Speaker 3: firms get away with murder?
Speaker 1: You guys know what's going on?
Speaker 3: I know, you know, like the bigger firms that I mean,
Speaker 3: they're engaged in massive fraud, but they also serve a
Speaker 3: very useful purpose. So they have like this kind of
Speaker 3: the Yin and Yang purpose. The purpose is without without
Speaker 3: the big firms, the economy would not run. You need
Speaker 3: to have brokerage firms and banks to provide credit, to
Speaker 3: give money to companies to go public, to do an
Speaker 3: oulysive compancy, which ones deserve money.
Speaker 1: To keep orderly markets. In other words, you need.
Speaker 3: Capital markets and you need a functional batting system to
Speaker 3: lend money, to raise money, to deploy money.
Speaker 2: Right, how much long do you think we'll have that?
Speaker 2: Because they've been I've been hearing rumors of potential bank crises.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, well but you know, here's the thing.
Speaker 3: The bank there's in the US that won't be bank
Speaker 3: those those buy them, they'll bail them out.
Speaker 1: They'll always bail them out. There's no way.
Speaker 3: So even like when you hear all this stuff, like
Speaker 3: there's always noise back that he's six months ago, and
Speaker 3: there's no way they're gonna let even the big one
Speaker 3: in Silicon Valley bank, whereas a lot of money they
Speaker 3: acted very irresponsibly, right, although they be not as they
Speaker 3: just got bad bad luck and responsibility, right, But you
Speaker 3: knew the government was gonna not let the depositors, because
Speaker 3: that's if that happened, I mean shit, like you know
Speaker 3: it would be so bad. But what happened is is
Speaker 3: that everyone would take them money out of the small
Speaker 3: local banks and all you would have is the big
Speaker 3: four or five banks out there. Right. I don't really
Speaker 3: think that's an issue. But what happens is that when
Speaker 3: you look at the success of the United States economically.
Speaker 1: It's based I think on two things.
Speaker 3: Number one, it really well ordered capital markets, liquid can
Speaker 3: and also that the dollar is the reserve currency.
Speaker 1: That's a much bigger threat.
Speaker 3: I think, like the dollar right now is you know,
Speaker 3: kind of losing its luster around the world, and if
Speaker 3: the dollar ever loses it completely, that would be a
Speaker 3: disaster for the US.
Speaker 5: You think, so with this crash course that you just
Speaker 5: gave me, because you know, I'm into it, but I
Speaker 5: ain't into it like that. I just learned a lot
Speaker 5: in first what you only been in here for ten minutes?
Speaker 5: Do you think it's a waste of time to even
Speaker 5: go to college or to take a like class on
Speaker 5: and stuff like?
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 1: So I think those things that college is two sizes
Speaker 1: to it.
Speaker 3: If you want I have two children, right, okay, and
Speaker 3: a step as well. Right, if you want to be
Speaker 3: professional doctor, a lawyer, or something else, like my daughter's
Speaker 3: a psychologist right where a license is required. And I think,
Speaker 3: of course you should go to college and go down
Speaker 3: the path and do whatever courses you got to take
Speaker 3: to get licensed. And there you want to be an
Speaker 3: accountant a lawyer, right, that's one thing. Right, If you
Speaker 3: have no on entrepreneurial side, QUEU and you want to
Speaker 3: go and get an MBA is something you can do that.
Speaker 3: But if you're someone else that like is going to
Speaker 3: do either into the trades or you want to be
Speaker 3: an entrepreneur a music as a musician in music, right,
Speaker 3: I don't think there's any reason to go to college. Well,
Speaker 3: in college is a complete waste of time with ridiculously
Speaker 3: you know, pumped up.
Speaker 1: Tuitions that are just asinine if you ask me so,
Speaker 1: I would.
Speaker 3: Never recommend someone to go to college unless they want
Speaker 3: to choose that path.
Speaker 1: And my daughter it makes sense for my son, it didn't,
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 3: But for investing list, it's so listen for you, Like
Speaker 3: I said in a few it's it's so easy to
Speaker 3: manage your money because you don't need a money manager
Speaker 3: and you don't need a financial planner except for your taxes. Right,
Speaker 3: you just buy the most of your money eighty percent
Speaker 3: should be in the s and P five hundred. You
Speaker 3: take ten percent you put into a bond fund is
Speaker 3: in the book, right, bonds are like fixed income, so
Speaker 3: just to kind of smooth out the returns over the years,
Speaker 3: and then the rest and by the way, the rest
Speaker 3: you can speculate with.
Speaker 1: You can have fun.
Speaker 3: There's nothing wrong with taking fun five or ten percent
Speaker 3: of your money and taking some flyers on whatever that
Speaker 3: means bitcoin.
Speaker 1: You want to trade a short term stock.
Speaker 3: But the problem is if you don't set aside any
Speaker 3: money for risk capital, then you might start using a.
Speaker 1: Lot more than five to ten percent.
Speaker 3: But like, if you do that in thirty years, you'd
Speaker 3: just be shocked at how much money you ended up
Speaker 3: with simply from a ten percent return, like and some
Speaker 3: years it's gonna lose twelve percent, but then like last
Speaker 3: year he made twenty seven percent. Right, it averages out,
Speaker 3: And basically it's like a set and forget can't go
Speaker 3: wrong investment in some.
Speaker 1: Level, like you put a good point up in the beginning,
Speaker 1: why trust me?
Speaker 3: On some level, it was like when I wrote the book,
Speaker 3: was like by kind of making right what I felt
Speaker 3: like because I have a really young audience and I said,
Speaker 3: every kid reads this book, the amount of money they're
Speaker 3: gonna save themselves by not getting suckered in. It's like
Speaker 3: to these you know, to high margin where you borrow
Speaker 3: money against your positions, which kids do all the time.
Speaker 1: It's a freaking disaster, right, So I.
Speaker 3: Figured it was. It was like kind of my gift
Speaker 3: back to everybody. I think the book really was and
Speaker 3: I think I succeeded. You know.
Speaker 2: I like what you said there because you know, even
Speaker 2: when we talk about politics and you you know, whether
Speaker 2: it's a politician like you know, President Biden who's done
Speaker 2: things like the eighty six mandatory minimum CINCE and eighty
Speaker 2: eight crack law in ninety four crime bill, people are
Speaker 2: asking him now since you're in the position of power
Speaker 2: you're in, right, those are wrong, yeah, should but that's
Speaker 2: what it feels like you're attempting to do, you know.
Speaker 1: I mean, listen, I've been doing that.
Speaker 3: But like you met me when we met the last
Speaker 3: time with the sales stuff, right, and that book was
Speaker 3: hugely successful, you know, And and again when I walk,
Speaker 3: you know, I'll tell you what, it's the greatest thing
Speaker 3: to walk around the world. And it's all over the
Speaker 3: world and Peter confeious that you changed my life, Yeah,
Speaker 3: you made my life better or like also by the way,
Speaker 3: it's just that even if they haven't read anything I did,
Speaker 3: just the movie itself like the idea that a comeback
Speaker 3: like I really it's okay to curse here. I really
Speaker 3: fucked up, Like I really fucked up. And I was
Speaker 3: one of those peoples that I'm fucking guilty, like I'm on.
Speaker 3: I never tried to to like minimum what I did, right.
Speaker 3: I made like if you're in jail, everyone's like a
Speaker 3: minute said I like the.
Speaker 1: Fucking guilty, Yeah, you're right.
Speaker 3: Guilty, right, so, and of course I felt like shit
Speaker 3: about it, right, and people lost money. I paid back
Speaker 3: a ton of money the whole thing, right, And but
Speaker 3: you know, I'll tell you what the people a lot
Speaker 3: of young people are older people too. They see what
Speaker 3: happened to my life and how successful I am now,
Speaker 3: and they're like it gives them hope and and it's
Speaker 3: part of also my message.
Speaker 1: It doesn't matter. And we all make mistakes. And you
Speaker 1: could either there's two things.
Speaker 3: You could either be defined by your mistakes, right like
Speaker 3: you you can become your mistakes. I stirred up I'm
Speaker 3: a bad person, so I guess I'm bad now that's
Speaker 3: who I am. Or you can learn from your mistakes
Speaker 3: and get stronger and change and like cause you know,
Speaker 3: when you have pain like that, it's an impetus to change, right,
Speaker 3: And as long as you're wanting to put one foot
Speaker 3: in front of the other and do the hard work.
Speaker 3: And also I work really, really hard, and my hard
Speaker 3: work always ad been right you, it doesn't matter where
Speaker 3: you are, how low you've fallen in life, you could
Speaker 3: always turn and around. It's up to you, you know
Speaker 3: what I'm saying. And also part of that is learning
Speaker 3: specific skill sets. So for example, like with the sales book, right,
Speaker 3: that's like a sales is a skill that you matter
Speaker 3: what you do. You're always trying to not even self
Speaker 3: just communicate your ideas, your hopes, your dreams, the value
Speaker 3: that you have. It doesn't matter what line of work
Speaker 3: you're And you could be a mother trying to convince
Speaker 3: your kids to make their beds in the morning. You
Speaker 3: could be a teacher trying to convince your children and
Speaker 3: the value of doing their homework or just education in general.
Speaker 3: You could be a pastor trying to influence your congregation.
Speaker 3: You could be God for a bit, a politician trying
Speaker 3: to influence people to vote for you. Right, But in
Speaker 3: any line of work, that communication is critical, mission critical,
Speaker 3: and I think what happens and in any field, like
Speaker 3: in what you guys do, there's certain skill skets that
Speaker 3: you've honed over the years. You work really hard to
Speaker 3: get to where you are. You're an engineer, there's a
Speaker 3: certain skill sets are quiet today. If you start a business,
Speaker 3: you need to know certain entrepreneurial skills. A lot of
Speaker 3: times people they have the vision, they know what they
Speaker 3: want to do, but they're not wanting to learn the
Speaker 3: skills they need to succeed at it.
Speaker 1: So I'm a big believer in like.
Speaker 3: It's not just hard work, it's actually it's going to
Speaker 3: be some that whatever you're trying to do in life,
Speaker 3: there's going to be a mission critical skill that you
Speaker 3: have to perfect. And whether it's the you know, the
Speaker 3: ten thousand hours or whatever how many hours it takes,
Speaker 3: or being mentored by someone and not trying to jump ahead,
Speaker 3: which is by the mistake I made very young. I
Speaker 3: didn't use mentors correctly at the wrong one and you
Speaker 3: pick up bad habits, right, But if you if you
Speaker 3: want to put the hard work, and it doesn't matter
Speaker 3: how low you form, anybody can turn around, I believe.
Speaker 3: And at least you know, not even rich, but do
Speaker 3: really well in life. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 1: And that and this book, I guess is sort of
Speaker 1: like the U.
Speaker 3: And I hate writing, by the way, do you write?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Right?
Speaker 1: I hate it.
Speaker 2: I mean, I have somebody who writes with me, but
Speaker 2: I write, like my third book comes out in me.
Speaker 1: Yeah so, and that's awesome.
Speaker 3: This is my fourth book and I don't I write alone, right,
Speaker 3: I don't have a ghost writer at all, and help me.
Speaker 3: And I hate it, but like I love having written, right.
Speaker 3: The best thing is when the book is done right.
Speaker 3: It's a great feeling. So this is my fourth book,
Speaker 3: and I think it don't know, I.
Speaker 1: Think it's one more book, but I got it.
Speaker 3: It's a grind when you do it, though, you know,
Speaker 3: but you know, so yeah, I think I think the
Speaker 3: book is is uh going to really help anyone who
Speaker 3: reads it? That's my uh.
Speaker 2: And you know, people don't realize you actually paid people back,
Speaker 2: you paid the people that you I did.
Speaker 3: Yeah. Well, the problem I had is that it was
Speaker 3: really weird because I had this huge fine, right, but
Speaker 3: it didn't represent the people who lost money. It was
Speaker 3: just like the people who lost money was much less.
Speaker 3: And then, like, you know, I don't want to get
Speaker 3: into this, it's a whole subject, but you know, noisy,
Speaker 3: but you know, I got some letter, some rapport from
Speaker 3: the trustee or from the bankruptcy of the whole firm,
Speaker 3: and it said like they had extra money leftover, they
Speaker 3: couldn't find any more people to pay back. And yet
Speaker 3: I still kept paying back for twenty more years. But
Speaker 3: that's spilled book. I never resented. I'm you know, here's
Speaker 3: the truth. I think this. There's two ways to live life.
Speaker 3: One is to get bitter and to have resentment and
Speaker 3: to want revenge. I'm just not liked. I never hold
Speaker 3: grudges that any anybody or anything. And I look forward,
Speaker 3: not backwards. And you know, right now, I'm very fulsted.
Speaker 3: I unfortunate. A lot of people don't get a second chance.
Speaker 3: So when you do get a second chance like I did,
Speaker 3: and then you know, the movie was so awesome, right,
Speaker 3: you know, you have to respect that and cherish that
Speaker 3: and also honor that and not fuck up again. So
Speaker 3: like I'm really really careful so.
Speaker 4: We're not getting too Wall Street too.
Speaker 1: So I'm looking at Leon and I.
Speaker 3: We ended up on the same boat somewhere about two
Speaker 3: years ago, and we were kidding around how great the
Speaker 3: movie was, and like, you know, he said something really great.
Speaker 3: He goes, you know, I've never seen Marty so happy
Speaker 3: mart Scorsese on a movie set.
Speaker 2: You don't, we don't, we don't have we don't know.
Speaker 3: Him by I know Martinsese, right, I've never seen Martin
Speaker 3: Scorsese so happy on a movie set. He goes, like
Speaker 3: usually he's much more seriously, he was laughing his ass
Speaker 3: off and just he just had such and the movie
Speaker 3: reflects Marty's like the humor of it, like Marty was
Speaker 3: having a great time. He goes. I'm like yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: and he goes, but there's not gonna be no sequel.
Speaker 3: Your life is way too boring. You too, You're too good.
Speaker 3: Now you're not doing drugs anymore. This is my guy
Speaker 3: right now. This is my red Bulls instead of cocaine,
Speaker 3: you know, which is not as strong by the way,
Speaker 3: you know, but it's more sustainable.
Speaker 2: Is it true that Donald Trump crashed the Wolf of
Speaker 2: Wall Street set?
Speaker 1: Who's what did I read?
Speaker 3: This.
Speaker 1: I read that, by the way, it's passed. I read
Speaker 1: where did I read that?
Speaker 3: Was that?
Speaker 2: Kristin Mulatty said it. Kristin Kristin merely me.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, you know its member.
Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, she played my first wife. By the way,
Speaker 3: his real name was Denise.
Speaker 2: He said, says she crashed. He said he Donald Trump
Speaker 2: crashed his set and acted the damn fool.
Speaker 3: Well you know there you go, right, what.
Speaker 2: Did you hear? Martin Scorsese compare Donald Trump?
Speaker 1: Do you no what he said? Come on, man, do
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 3: You know that? I don't read anything about myself ever,
Speaker 3: no comments, No, I never. I don't have Google or nothing,
Speaker 3: because I think that for me at least, right, I
Speaker 3: know in my heart that I do good ship. I
Speaker 3: know it. I know everything I do. I'm on like,
Speaker 3: I'm giving more value than I'm getting in money, at
Speaker 3: least I'm trying, by the way, right, So like, and
Speaker 3: and there's haters out there in this world, and you
Speaker 3: have tons of I'm sure.
Speaker 1: You have tons of haters.
Speaker 3: You must. You gotta have something, you know. And by
Speaker 3: the way, and the haters drive engagement, which is great,
Speaker 3: by the way, So like I just let them, like
Speaker 3: I don't. In the beginning, I used to look, I
Speaker 3: fight with them, what do you you know? They're like,
Speaker 3: how could you listen to this guy?
Speaker 2: After?
Speaker 1: And I'm like, this is just ridiculous.
Speaker 3: Like if Jesus Christ was today and he gave the
Speaker 3: sermon on the Temple Mount, people say, what an idiot?
Speaker 3: Nothing new there. No matter who you are, they're gonna
Speaker 3: hate on you. So I just don't read anything about
Speaker 3: myself because there's even my wife is like, yeah, this
Speaker 3: is a great awk. I'm like, no, yeah, I don't
Speaker 3: want if someone tells me I'm so great, I don't
Speaker 3: want to know about it. I know who I am.
Speaker 3: I know my good, my bad, and my ugly and
Speaker 3: on the whole thing. And each day I try to
Speaker 3: be as good a person as I can.
Speaker 1: And if you recomment, you can go freaking crazy.
Speaker 3: What was this about Donald Trump?
Speaker 2: He said. Martin Scorsese was in London at a film
Speaker 2: festival and he said, paneled. Moderator Edgar Wright played a
Speaker 2: clip from Wolf of Wall Street and he said, some
Speaker 2: of your films people are punis for their sins, and
Speaker 2: Wolf of Wall Street they're celebrating. They're celebrated, right, Sked
Speaker 2: Wright said to Scorsese, who liken Bellford the Trump and
Speaker 2: his reply, he said, politically the country they elected Trump.
Speaker 2: It's about kill go, get the money, do anything you want.
Speaker 2: You can't do anything to me. When he's saying I
Speaker 2: don't have to pay taxes to a certain extent because
Speaker 2: I have smart lawyers, he's right, it's true. It's legal.
Speaker 2: Doesn't mean it's right, but it's legal. Scorsese said, to
Speaker 2: the former presidents multiple indictments.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'd push back on that a little bit. I'll
Speaker 3: tell you why, because I suffered the consequences from my
Speaker 3: actions almost everything I did not. I did not leave
Speaker 3: jail with any money.
Speaker 1: I was broke.
Speaker 3: I started from scratch and and my comeback started with
Speaker 3: money I received from the Wolf of Wall Street book,
Speaker 3: and half of it went to pay back investors, so
Speaker 3: I was fifty percent one to investor. So it was
Speaker 3: really very I had really tough years in the beginning,
Speaker 3: So I pushed back on that. And also, you know,
Speaker 3: I think that, you know, I really try hard not
Speaker 3: to be a polarizing figure. I really do, and I
Speaker 3: don't know if that's good. And in the beginning, there
Speaker 3: was a few years ago I was a bit more
Speaker 3: polarizing because there was things that bothered me about COVID,
Speaker 3: you know, And I said, you know what, I just stop.
Speaker 3: I don't stop my position. I'm here to help people,
Speaker 3: to give entrepreneurial advice, stocking whatever, and I just want
Speaker 3: to I just stopped, so, like you know, and admittedly
Speaker 3: my engagement dropped it when you're stopped being as controversial.
Speaker 1: But you know, I think, listen, I think you could love.
Speaker 3: Trump, but you could hate Trump. But I mean, it
Speaker 3: is shocking that it seems the more bad things they
Speaker 3: say about him, the more people embrace him. I can't
Speaker 3: quite figure that out.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's shocked.
Speaker 3: I've never seen I thought, like the first time, even
Speaker 3: before he got elected in twenty sixteen, like that thing
Speaker 3: with the tape ran, I think.
Speaker 1: Oh, this guy's done.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I was like, this guy's done.
Speaker 3: And then when he came out and he's like saying
Speaker 3: you just completely like nothing, I was like, what a
Speaker 3: stupid And I was like, holy shit, it actually worked.
Speaker 2: But eventually crashing Yeah, well yeah, when did we ever
Speaker 2: seen it? Not like it's inevitable. Yeah, like Trump, he
Speaker 2: said he was a great president.
Speaker 3: Listen. I think that Trump the president. I look at
Speaker 3: all I can say is the world when Trump was
Speaker 3: president there was no wars. Now, some of that is
Speaker 3: could be coincidental, like cause some of it's just luck, right,
Speaker 3: but there was peace, There was energy with energy independent,
Speaker 3: I thought, you know, regulations, we were sort of less
Speaker 3: intrusive on business. And he was an asshole, like he
Speaker 3: was not he was like he he divided people, but
Speaker 3: you know, like there's like so he had this his
Speaker 3: personality was so abrasive, and I was like, what do
Speaker 3: you like, just stick to the fucking policies which were working.
Speaker 3: Immigration was was was tight at the border, and I
Speaker 3: believe those and I'm proving my parents, my great great
Speaker 3: grandmas and my grandparents were immigrants, right, So it's not
Speaker 3: that I'm anti immigrant, of course, I think, but legal immigrants.
Speaker 3: And there's the problem with that because the immigration system
Speaker 3: screwed up. That needs to change also. But I think
Speaker 3: the country was in a much better spot, except for
Speaker 3: the fact that he pissed so many people off in
Speaker 3: the process, and part of them being a great president
Speaker 3: is trying to unite and not divide. So, you know,
Speaker 3: but I have to say as a president, the world,
Speaker 3: the country was in a better spot. I think the
Speaker 3: world was in a better spot, and I think Biden's
Speaker 3: is a I don't think Biden is mentally his mental
Speaker 3: client think he's almost senile. I wouldn't quite say senile,
Speaker 3: but although I would say that this whole thing about
Speaker 3: the her report, right is nonsense, like and and Stewart
Speaker 3: had a great piece of it.
Speaker 1: So like the biggest thing that caused them naesure is
Speaker 1: being deposed.
Speaker 3: Like everyone who's got a kneesure on the deposed someone right,
Speaker 3: if you got something hot, you see the stuff in Georgia,
Speaker 3: like that lawyer, you could remember any of I don't remember.
Speaker 1: What happened yesterday.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 1: Lawyer, So I think it's a bit unfair.
Speaker 3: Like I think it's more seriously the flubs he makes
Speaker 3: when he can't remember stuff and loses his track on.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but not as bad though, and they're not as bad.
Speaker 1: It's not as bad.
Speaker 2: I think it just depends what highlight reel you're.
Speaker 3: But seriously, I don't think i'm as fair the horror
Speaker 3: Bork like he's er every I didos, I don't remember
Speaker 3: what they I don't know right, So it's some fair
Speaker 3: Listen in the country will de saw. But I think
Speaker 3: whatever happens in the election, and I'm not a fan
Speaker 3: of Biden not I don't think you are either. I think, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 3: I just since if Trump gets elected, I hope he
Speaker 3: learns from the mistakes of like dividing and saying ship
Speaker 3: that is inflammatory and you just check that.
Speaker 1: At first, I was hoping that you.
Speaker 2: Kind of already went too far past that though, Like
Speaker 2: when you try to lead an attempted coup of this country,
Speaker 2: what you said was just a moment of foolishness. So yeah,
Speaker 2: was two things can be true. It is a moment
Speaker 2: of foolishness to try to lead in the tempt I
Speaker 2: think it.
Speaker 3: Was a riot, you know, I look differently at it
Speaker 3: because like they weren't armed. Then you see a real coup,
Speaker 3: you know, people come in with guns and its organized.
Speaker 2: Get it right the next time. Practice.
Speaker 3: I think it was an ugly moment. Obviously, was terrible
Speaker 3: and disgusting for the country.
Speaker 2: Right anything you should, you should? You should? We should
Speaker 2: rip up the constitution to overthrow the results of an election. Yeah,
Speaker 2: His lawyers said that he never agreed to support the constitution.
Speaker 2: You really want somebody who don't believe in the constitution
Speaker 2: to be the leader.
Speaker 1: I'm going to tell you something that I said.
Speaker 3: I was the first. I think I was the first
Speaker 3: person to say this. You go back to my social
Speaker 3: mediause I have a big video on it. Right, I'm
Speaker 3: gonna repost this. But right after he lost and everyone's saying,
Speaker 3: it's fraud, it's they stole the I'm like, no, it's not,
Speaker 3: it's not. There's no fraud. Okay, this fraud in every election,
Speaker 3: but that's just whatever. It's regular fraud and there always is, right,
Speaker 3: but no more than usual. Right. Trump lost the election
Speaker 3: because the Democrats played an amazing game of mail in
Speaker 3: voting and ballot harvesting legally like you can legally. The
Speaker 3: way they were doing it is they had all this
Speaker 3: early voting, and Trump said saying, go to the on
Speaker 3: the day of the election, go and you know, don't
Speaker 3: do mail in voting. So what happens is you have
Speaker 3: the Democrats have thirty do every day whatever the days
Speaker 3: before thirty forty days before. Bouts are sitting at everyone's desk,
Speaker 3: at everyone's house.
Speaker 1: The coffee table. People are knocking on the doors.
Speaker 3: Do you feel at your ballot and get your ballot,
Speaker 3: you get it, and this commercials ruwing. So you have
Speaker 3: thirty days of voting on one side and then the
Speaker 3: Republicans are basically showing up on election day. You're not
Speaker 3: gonna win like that. And that's why Biden got say
Speaker 3: how did he get eighty million votes? Because it was
Speaker 3: It's easy to do mail in voting, so they took
Speaker 3: advantage of what was happening. It was legal.
Speaker 1: I don't think the election was stolen anyway.
Speaker 3: I think they just want much smarter and more effective
Speaker 3: at harvesting ballots.
Speaker 1: And that's the new game.
Speaker 2: And nobody talks about the well, we don't talk enough
Speaker 2: about the series of unfortunate events that year was. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: George Floyd, Yeah yeah, it was.
Speaker 1: It was a disaster.
Speaker 2: I don't think President Biden wins the election of all
Speaker 2: that that's not going on.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so so again, And I think the worst thing
Speaker 3: of it all is that there's two people that like,
Speaker 3: I mean, I don't think anyone really I would like
Speaker 3: to say two different people running absolutely. I mean right, so,
Speaker 3: like you know, I mean eighty and seventy eight, it's
Speaker 3: not in the eight. It's not age. My mother's ninety
Speaker 3: one and she's sharp as a tack. My mother like
Speaker 3: really shocked.
Speaker 2: Shouldn't be president?
Speaker 3: Yeah? It should be president, right, you know, honestly, even
Speaker 3: like it's sick. I'm sixty one years old now, Okay,
Speaker 3: I don't think I'm as sharpest when I was forty five.
Speaker 3: Now I have more wisdom and experience, and I think
Speaker 3: that's important. So I'm certainly hav enough acuity to be
Speaker 3: president if I'm not running trusting, right, But the.
Speaker 1: Point is, I think that when you get into your seventies.
Speaker 3: And I don't know, I don't think you're sure, just
Speaker 3: so you're not the person you are, I think there
Speaker 3: should be you know, certainly some at least mental acuity
Speaker 3: tests and also the job ages you I mean, so
Speaker 3: I think it's pretty sad that at this point we
Speaker 3: have an eighty or an eighty year old and seventy
Speaker 3: eighty one, seventy seven or seventy eight, right, you know
Speaker 3: that's the best we can do.
Speaker 5: I'm done with this fucking politician. Okay, So your ex wife, right, Nadine?
Speaker 5: Or is it is it?
Speaker 4: Didn't? You said no, no, no, dye? Is she still upset?
Speaker 4: It said that she's still upset.
Speaker 5: She's still upset and that you haven't given her an
Speaker 5: apology for what she feels like you ore one I want?
Speaker 4: So you know that is it?
Speaker 5: Because are you still upset that she posted something about
Speaker 5: like posted details about you guys' relationship.
Speaker 2: No, no, no.
Speaker 3: It's no no. I think this is you're into the
Speaker 3: personal stuff here a little bit. No, Listen, we have
Speaker 3: we have two children together, right, and we've always gotten
Speaker 3: along really well over the years, right. But she said
Speaker 3: some stuff that wasn't true, okay, and not that it's
Speaker 3: not true, but she's playing the victim, okay, as if
Speaker 3: she was the innocent flower and I corrupt her and
Speaker 3: they're just like, listen, I'm never going to minimize the mistakes.
Speaker 3: I was a drug addict. I was wild, okay, and
Speaker 3: I and I really never cheating her that much. I
Speaker 3: was with hookers mostly, and I know that's you know,
Speaker 3: some people have different opinions on that.
Speaker 1: But she was she had an affair with the trick
Speaker 1: she had.
Speaker 3: She was banging the trainer, okay, so like and you know,
Speaker 3: and by I did four quaaludes a day, she would
Speaker 3: do one a day. She was doing drugs with me
Speaker 3: as well. And I said to your message would be
Speaker 3: more powerful if you didn't make yourself a victim this
Speaker 3: whole thing. You're part of it, and it takes two
Speaker 3: to tango. And that was my only thing, was the
Speaker 3: positioning herself as a victim, because she was a very
Speaker 3: sophisticated young girl. Okay, you knew exactly what was going
Speaker 3: on the whole time.
Speaker 2: And did you have over releaseship?
Speaker 3: No, No, just cheating each other, cheating, cheat it too.
Speaker 3: And she did drugs too, and I did a lot more,
Speaker 3: and you know I had to go to rehab.
Speaker 1: She didn't. So I have not no listen, I.
Speaker 2: Really had one one penis, you had multiple quiz.
Speaker 3: I was, I was so out of control and the
Speaker 3: drug depol But I just I think my point was,
Speaker 3: and we've already we already made peace in this whole thing, right,
Speaker 3: But I said to.
Speaker 1: I think your message would be far more powerful if you.
Speaker 3: Take some ownership for your for your rolling it, versus
Speaker 3: trying to say you're a victim. I think that's ridiculous.
Speaker 3: You know, I don't think victim works for anybody. I
Speaker 3: think it's much better if you take responsibly for your
Speaker 3: own mistakes that you made. And I think it makes
Speaker 3: your message more powerful.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't. Yeah, I agree with that. I don't.
Speaker 2: I think there's a difference between victimhood and when somebody
Speaker 2: actually did you dirty, and there should be some atonement
Speaker 2: for it, right, Yeah, you know what I mean, because
Speaker 2: you wouldn't call anybody that you got over on when
Speaker 2: you were wolf victim. I mean they were victims, but
Speaker 2: you wouldn't tell them that victimhood don't work for them
Speaker 2: because they were telling Yeah.
Speaker 3: But anything that I would ever apologize to my ex
Speaker 3: wife about I've apologized many many times. Wait long before
Speaker 3: while we were getting divorced, and over the years we
Speaker 3: were very close for many years after very many very close.
Speaker 1: You know, we always got along really well.
Speaker 3: And I just didn't like it was succesious, weird things,
Speaker 3: saying things that were just blatantly untrue, like like online
Speaker 3: to try to get clickbait stuff, you know, and it
Speaker 3: really wasn't at a ball. I never read it ever.
Speaker 3: I don't read anything online. But I have a new
Speaker 3: wife who reads it.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm sure she bught it to you, and.
Speaker 3: That's yeah, And that was really what it was about.
Speaker 3: And also we have children together, and I thought it
Speaker 3: was inappropriate, you know, but she knows what she wants
Speaker 3: and she apologized to me for that as well.
Speaker 4: Amazing.
Speaker 3: I think she I think that she stopped doing it
Speaker 3: and we get along well now, so you know, and
Speaker 3: I whole long, I wish nothing but the best.
Speaker 1: By the way, I love that, you know, she's the
Speaker 1: mother of my children. She was a great mom. Sherely was.
Speaker 3: She was a great mom. And I think she always
Speaker 3: says I was a great dad. I hope she says that, right.
Speaker 4: She never said the thing.
Speaker 2: I'm joking.
Speaker 3: It was a great mom, you know. And uh, and
Speaker 3: we have two amazing kids together.
Speaker 4: Yeah, amazing.
Speaker 2: I got a couple more questions just about the investing
Speaker 2: in at Wall Street. You said earlier that America could
Speaker 2: be destroyed, right, and there's a lot of people who
Speaker 2: feel like America is on the decline, right, do you
Speaker 2: think America, the American economy is still a wise investment.
Speaker 3: I would never bet against the American economy. I think
Speaker 3: I think the American commy is still a great investment.
Speaker 3: And by the way, when you're buying the S and
Speaker 3: P five hundred, right, that's what you're buying. You're buying
Speaker 3: the American economies, the five hundred biggest companies, right that
Speaker 3: drive the American economy. What I was referring to before,
Speaker 3: I think the danger and I think it was so huge.
Speaker 3: If if there's one major mistake the Biden administrative administrat
Speaker 3: you made was freezing Russia out of the out of
Speaker 3: the monetary system. Okay, freezing Russian sovereign assets, cutting them
Speaker 3: off from SWIFT was a huge blunder because all did
Speaker 3: was drove them into this other system. They're trying to
Speaker 3: this brick system, yes, right, So, and it makes other
Speaker 3: countries So wait a second. So we're using the dollar
Speaker 3: as our reserve currency, and you don't like us, You're
Speaker 3: going to freeze our sovereign assets and cut us off.
Speaker 3: So it's a reason for other countries to run away
Speaker 3: from the dollar.
Speaker 2: So it's Brazil, Russia, India, China, craft Africa are all
Speaker 2: looking to establish this new reserve currency.
Speaker 1: To compete with the dollar, right.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: And by the fact that the dollar is a reserve
Speaker 3: you don't know how I mean, you do know. I'm
Speaker 3: sure it's so important for the economy because it allows
Speaker 3: us the only reason we can keep printing money, and
Speaker 3: printing money has this huge deficit because everyone around the
Speaker 3: world sucks up these extra dollars. I go to all
Speaker 3: my wife's Argentinian. When I go to Argentina, everyone is
Speaker 3: it's all dollars. Everything's being collected in dollars. Transactions are
Speaker 3: all in dollars, the big ones, right. So without that
Speaker 3: around the world, we wouldn't be living the standalone that
Speaker 3: we have. So the dollar is just so important. And
Speaker 3: I think to drive Russia, do whatever you open to
Speaker 3: ride them out of the system. It just made them
Speaker 3: buying yen and this like now they were China right.
Speaker 3: Didn't make any sense to me, and it didn't. And
Speaker 3: the Russians aren't stuffing right now. Their economy, I think,
Speaker 3: is doing pretty well because selling oil still of me
Speaker 3: like it didn't matter. You know, I'm not pro Russia
Speaker 3: in there, I have nothing. I've gone to Russia many times.
Speaker 3: The Russian people are a most amazing people. I love them,
Speaker 3: the Russian people. My biggest event was in Moscow, thirty
Speaker 3: two thousand people. Wow, and it's a beautiful city. I
Speaker 3: love Russian people. Hate that the war's happening. I've been
Speaker 3: to Ukraine Kreev three times. You know, I'm saying love
Speaker 3: Ukrainian people, right, but to sanction them with freeze their
Speaker 3: assets and just making them and eventually they'll get the
Speaker 3: money back when the war's over, right, But to do
Speaker 3: it drove them out of the system, Like that's stupid.
Speaker 3: Could the dollar collapse, I don't think it collapses unless
Speaker 3: there's some sort of like you know, black swan event,
Speaker 3: like an EMP pulse that knocks everything out.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I don't think it happens like that. I think it's
Speaker 3: more a slow decline where you start to see that
Speaker 3: the dollar now maybe becomes, you know, fifty percent of
Speaker 3: the global currency of the world transactions versus eighty five
Speaker 3: wherever's eighties in the eighties somewhere, maybe a little lower,
Speaker 3: and it used to be.
Speaker 1: Like ninety five.
Speaker 3: It's getting it is already starting to unwind, right, But
Speaker 3: I don't think it happens And I could be wrong,
Speaker 3: But I don't think it happens in the next twenty years,
Speaker 3: in and in others, you know, one day it's just done.
Speaker 3: I don't think it happens that way, but I could
Speaker 3: be wrong.
Speaker 2: Wall Street, right, How can someone extract the benefits of
Speaker 2: Wall Street without being drawn into the dark side right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a great question.
Speaker 3: So the dark side is putting on CNBC right and
Speaker 3: listening to the pundits and thinking that you can speculate
Speaker 3: and short term trades like buying a stock today at
Speaker 3: thirty dollars and cellar to thirty two number one you get.
Speaker 3: I mean, human beings, by nature are the worst stock
Speaker 3: pickers in the world, and listening to a stockbroker is
Speaker 3: just is like idiotic.
Speaker 1: And I'll tell you what it's.
Speaker 3: The Wall Street investing in thing is the one exception
Speaker 3: to the rule that we've all grown up with that
Speaker 3: if you want to get the best result, seek out
Speaker 3: an expert to help you.
Speaker 1: Get the best results.
Speaker 3: So, for example, if the pipes in your house crack
Speaker 3: and you have a leak, I suggest you call a plumber,
Speaker 3: a licensed plumber, to fix your pipes.
Speaker 1: Don't try to fix yourself. You can get a much
Speaker 1: better result. It's worth of three hundred dollars to get
Speaker 1: your pipes.
Speaker 3: Six. If your electricity shorts out, all right, call electrics.
Speaker 3: Don't go yourself and try to fix your electricuty right,
Speaker 3: much better results worth the five hundred dollars. Right. If
Speaker 3: you're sick, yeah, you eat surgery. Don't try to cut
Speaker 3: you cut me open. There, go to the doctor, a licensed,
Speaker 3: professionally expert to get you surgery and get you healthy. Right.
Speaker 3: That works in all professions except investing. It's the one
Speaker 3: exception where the people that manage money and give you
Speaker 3: advice don't get you a better ald to get you
Speaker 3: a worse result than if you did it yourself by
Speaker 3: simply buying the S and P five hundred. They're all
Speaker 3: trying to beat the S and P five hundred, and
Speaker 3: they never do. Now again, there's a few them that do.
Speaker 3: They're not taking your money. They're trading for multi billionaires
Speaker 3: and it's a closed market. And then you have the
Speaker 3: rest of these so called hedge fund managers. Those are
Speaker 3: the rock stars that can beat the market right, and
Speaker 3: the rest of the people bask in the afterglow and
Speaker 3: the return suck. When they take their twenty percent performance
Speaker 3: bonus at two percent matching, you're not going to beat
Speaker 3: the S and P five hundred. You do much worse.
Speaker 3: So it's so simple for an investor to get the
Speaker 3: value of Wall Street.
Speaker 2: Right.
Speaker 3: So Wall Street takes all these companies public, and if
Speaker 3: they do well, they end up in.
Speaker 2: The S and P.
Speaker 1: Five hundred.
Speaker 3: So if you own the S and P five hundred,
Speaker 3: you get to extract all the benefits and you don't
Speaker 3: play into all the nonsense, the noise about short term trading,
Speaker 3: the latest sector. It's just all the fancy leverage products.
Speaker 3: It's just a waste of time and it's been it's
Speaker 3: not this is not me. I didn't come up with this.
Speaker 3: Warren Buffett says the same exact thing.
Speaker 1: He gets to say.
Speaker 3: All the people are really a sincere and even a
Speaker 3: sincere money manager your frails. They just buy the fucking
Speaker 3: S and P five hundred and hold it. And if
Speaker 3: you want to smooth that, you could buy a little
Speaker 3: bonds in there as well. You very I hate bonds,
Speaker 3: but still you know the formula say you should buy
Speaker 3: some bonds as well. I talked about that in the book.
Speaker 3: But really the S and P. It's like, it's so simple.
Speaker 1: So that's how you extract the value out of Wall Street.
Speaker 1: You buy the S and B, open up.
Speaker 3: An account at van Dot or black Rock what they
Speaker 3: all have these accounts. There's no expenses. You could buy
Speaker 3: it in one trade and then every month put a
Speaker 3: little bit of money in and don't worry if it's
Speaker 3: up or down. If it's down, great, If it's upright,
Speaker 3: that doesn't matter because over the long term it's gonna

Speaker 3: like over one hundred years. Right, it's gonna keep doing
Speaker 3: the same thing. And there no guarantees, but it's pretty

Speaker 3: keep making small investments and reinvestor dividends, it grows so dramatically.
