young age.
So, I think that drive and that ambition was always there, but it was just a matter of finding the right outlet for it.
And once I found that outlet, it was like a snowball effect.
I just kept pushing forward, and even when I lost everything, I knew I had the ability to rebuild.
It was just about finding the right opportunities and being willing to take risks.
I think a lot of people get stuck in their comfort zones, and they don't realize that sometimes you have to take a leap of faith to achieve what you want.
So, yeah, I always had that belief in myself, but it took time to really harness it and turn it into something tangible.
And now, looking back, I can see how all those experiences shaped me and prepared me for the next steps in my journey.
It's all about growth and learning from the past, and I think that's what keeps me motivated to keep pushing forward.
I want to create something meaningful and impactful, not just for myself but for others as well.
That's the ultimate goal, to leave a legacy and make a difference in the world.
And I think that's what drives a lot of successful people, that desire to create something bigger than themselves.
So, yeah, it's been a wild ride, but I'm excited for what's next.
Young age while everybody else was, you know, playing Counter-Strike, so I was speaking that where I played through. Don't worry. Um, yeah, I think that just some people have this natural drive, and I think that mine just came from my situation, like not coming from anything. Yeah, was the biggest driving force.
Just seeing my situation growing up, like it was hard and it hurt. Like it wasn't a fun experience. Yeah, you needed that hurt in order to want to come out of it. Like, as you said, I think people that—like this is why I'm worried about having kids. Because if I have kids and I'm able to provide everything for them, like what ends up happening to them?
Even if I don't give them the money, they're going to be spoiled because they've never—like this is something that I think is really interesting, right? So Bill Gates, Bill Gates is the best example. He's worth a lot of money, and he said that he's not going to give any money to his children when he dies. They're not going to have anything. But their entire life, how have they lived their life?
Yeah, I mean, he's [ __ ] them about doing that because now that's what they're used to. You're living in like the craziest mansion ever. You've got your own plane that you're only flying in. You're living a life that no other human can possibly live, and then when you die, all right, see you later. Go figure it out now.
You can't just—no, that's a lot of people. You know, they say like—I mean especially like in the US, you know, the scholarships and stuff for people that have come from like unfortunate places. Because like, you know, they say it's not fair, but I feel like that's something that's not talked about a lot.
Like you really—you need that. Like that's—although it's obviously not a great thing and it'd be ideal to, you know, not be born into that. But I mean, you know, you're saying that's the reason why you are who you are today is because of that hardship that you have to go through. 100%. That built you.
So I feel like a lot of people, they look at it like, you know, it's such a disadvantage. Like why me? You know, [ __ ] this. Like it's so unfortunate. You know, why did this have to happen to me? But that can essentially be, you know, your ground to building everything.
Yeah, and I think that all three of us share something similar, and that's the fact that we all did something that was uncomfortable. And we've all come to a place—like we're all in Dubai now. We're not in our home countries. So just taking that step was enough, and that means that our thinking is a lot different to most people's.
So you guys already had it, but it's more about can people learn that? It's—so I'm just still trying to figure out, is it something that you're born with? Is it something that I learned? Yeah, I feel like it's something that you're born with. Because I remember even when I was like 12, 13, I tried to make Call of Duty videos, and I was—I used to be a graphic designer for like a Call of Duty clan, and I made like 10 bucks out of each design. Nerd, bro. When I was 12.
So even since when I was like 12, 13, I was hustling, bro. Yeah, and then I started with the CS:GO, and I started trading CS:GO skins. Oh, [ __ ] yeah. And I sold everything to Ethereum back in 2015, and I had like probably 10 bands when I was 14 in Ethereum. But that would be worth what now? I don't want to— I don't want to figure that out.
But yeah, but I feel like it's something you're born with. Yeah, yeah, it's something you're born with. And sure, some people can learn it, but it's like you—everyone hitting you up for advice, right? Yeah, but all that knowledge is there.
Yeah, exactly. And it's like all of that knowledge we already have it. It's like we've come with this knowledge—not knowledge, use this ability to just figure out things. I think not more than other people, but we just have this natural gift to just [ __ ] go and get it. We just don't want to settle for anything other than that.
100%. And talking about Dubai, a lot of people, you know, I mean from what I've seen online, there's mixed feelings. You know, they love it or hate it, and it's got all these problems. It's not—what do you think about Dubai? You've been here for, you said, four years now?
Yeah, four or five years. Um, so I think Dubai, like obviously has its pros and cons, um, like everywhere. Yeah, like everywhere. But Dubai, okay, center of the world. We can go anywhere we want at any time, one direct flight, no taxes. That's kind of a no-brainer, especially if you're making money.
Like where else can you truly do that in a real city? Because you can go to the Cayman Islands or the Bahamas, but those places aren't as good as here. Um, and then, yeah, you're around so many crazy people, crazy wealthy people that you see all that, and it just sort of drives you in a sense.
So, um, those are the three main things. But if we talk about like a few months ago, I actually made the decision that I wanted to leave Dubai, and that was because I felt like a lot of people here were living without a purpose. They were just chasing, you know, this sort of superficial lifestyle, which I've sort of drifted off from.
Like I don't wear any designer clothes at all. The only thing that I'll do is I'll wear a few nice watches here and there, but I don't give a [ __ ] about designer style. [ __ ] Richard. Yeah, so when you're around that all the time, it's sort of hard to be in your own lane, I would say. Do you know what I mean?
Yeah, um, and that's why I felt like if I was to go somewhere else where I fit in more in terms of that mentality, it was going to make me feel a little bit different. So I left and tried to find a new place. I see you travel a lot.
Yeah, yeah, I traveled a lot trying to find that next place, but I couldn't find it, and so I'm back. Okay, so plan for now is still chilling in Dubai. Look, I do—I will always be one of the bases, and I think for this moment, like zero percent tax, I don't know how long it's going to last.
They're introducing like—what is it? Income tax? But it's not so serious. It's just like an unsure company. Yeah, yeah. Um, but personal tax, like all the incentives and the schemes that Dubai had was to create what Dubai's become now.
Yeah, and now Dubai has reached it. Like there is an overcrowding problem. Like you go to Dubai Mall now, [ __ ] rammed. Like a few years ago, it was like every single restaurant was half empty, and now like you need to know somebody to get a booking at most of these popular restaurants.
So Dubai has become what they set out to become, and now they can slowly introduce the taxes because I don't know whether people will leave. You've got the Russians here now, you've got the Ukrainians now, the Chinese people are coming, so the money is already here.
And if you slowly introduce the things that are going to help build the economy even more, I don't think people will leave. So, and you get the safety and stuff. Yeah, it's extremely safe, so people are going to be able to pay for it.
Yeah, they're going to be willing to do that, but I want to take advantage of that while I can. Yeah, so it might not be here forever, and if I have to at some point pay 10% tax, I'm not sure if I want to because I want to make sure I know where that [ __ ] money is going.
Yeah, that's why I decided to leave my country because why do I want to pay 50% tax if you're not telling me where it's going, and I can't actually contribute it somewhere myself? Yeah, so that was the biggest reason for me.
But I want to know why you guys are here. I mean, that's essentially the same thing. You know, I was in the U.S. um, and dead, you know, with capital gains. If you make north of 200,000, 250,000 U.S., you're paying 40%. And then obviously if, you know, you live in California or somewhere with higher state tax, you're paying even more.
And like for me, I was living in Houston, Texas, which probably wasn't the greatest decision as the state tax there is zero. Zero, zero. Okay, well, um, but again, you're still paying that 40% federal. And you know, I make 100% of my income online, and you know, same thing.
I couldn't understand where the taxes were going because the roads are more [ __ ] up. I get homesick when I drive on that. It reminds me of South Africa. You know, my house is getting broken into. You know, I'm like, [ __ ] you know, I'm paying 40%, and you know, I'm confused why.
And so I decided to—obviously a lot of the crypto guys were here as well, so the networking is a huge thing for me. Um, safety is a big thing, obviously coming from South Africa. You know, you're always looking over your shoulder no matter what you're doing.
Even now in Europe, I don't go to Europe without security anymore. Yeah, like it's changed a lot. Yeah, yeah. And so like for me here, the fact that, you know, I just never ever second guess nothing. Like, you know, I don't worry about putting on my watch, nothing.
And I can just walk outside, you know, hassle-free. I feel like that's something that a lot of people overlook because, you know, they've never been in that situation. Like, you know, I grew up in South Africa, so I know what that's like.
Again, you know, you could build all this, have all the success, but if you live in a place where you could get murdered, that's—you've done it all for nothing. Yeah, what's—yeah, safety is a big thing for me.
Um, obviously more central, so I can go back to South Africa a lot easier because my family's still there. I love the beach. The beaches are unreal here. Same as even the fishing. Not a lot of people know, but Dubai has some of the best fishing I've ever done.
You go out on the channel here, bro, you whack in 10, 15 of these queen fish. Unreal. And it's obviously flat like a lake, so no seasick, no nothing. Um, and I like the high quality of life. You know, like it's just—I don't think there's anywhere else that has, you know, such a high quality of living.
And as well as that, you know, like you were saying, the people for me, it's a negative and a positive because, you know, they are all very artificial, chasing this [ __ ] you know, they want nothing other than money. So you got to be careful. You know, you gotta have your guard up.
But at the same time, you know, you see all these cars and all this [ __ ] every day, it does motivate you. You know, it's like I came here, you know, I'm living in Houston, Texas. I feel like the man, bro. I've been, you know, whooping paused, you know, 20, 2005 Toyota Corollas. I come—yeah, bro, I buy my car, I'm still a bum.
Yeah, I'm still absolutely nobody. So, you know, I feel like that—like I was saying earlier, like I like pressure. Like I need the pressure in order to thrive. So for me, that's why I ended up here, and yeah, I like it so far. It's good.
Yeah, for me, it was very spontaneous. I mean, I lived in Sweden. We had like one of the highest taxes in the world. It's up to like 60% if you earn a good amount of money, which is ridiculous. It's not even half your income.
Um, so I started traveling. I came here three years ago, uh, when I was 18. I was about to turn 19, and I came around like a two-week holiday. And then I ended up going back for a week home, and then I came back and I stayed here for months.
And then I was in LA, and I was gonna try to get a visa in the States because I had all my friends there. The whole fitness community is way bigger there than anywhere else in the world. Um, so I was like, okay, I want to move there. Did I end up going through because of, you know, the States? It's just—it's just a mess.
Um, you're gonna get a visa. It was just very difficult, and I couldn't be [ __ ] like because, I mean, it's good. The States is good, but after spending three months there, I was like, uh, I don't know.
And I was just sitting very high one night, scrolling through my WhatsApp, and I found this guy that owns Creative. So they do like companies and stuff, and I just called him up at like 5 a.m. and then I started—I got my license stuff down here.
Um, so for me—and obviously, like you should say how easy it is to do that. Oh yeah, your own company to believe it. Yeah, start your company, please get a visa, and to be at zero percent tax. Yeah, how easy is it? Unbelievably easy.
You pay not a lot of money, and then you're set, and you don't lift a finger. They do everything. Yeah, send them your passport, copy this, that, they have it sorted. Done. So it was a no-brainer for me.
Um, so I moved out from my mom's apartment like, yeah, two years ago now. Um, but yeah, no, Sweden is good though. I love Sweden. I go back there, you know, a few times. It's a good country.
Yeah, I mean, it's very like high quality. Yeah, um, the food, the infrastructure, everything very high quality. Uh, but it's just not for me, especially the cold weather. Weather, I need to be creating content. I need to be out doing things, like doing stuff different from other fitness influencers, which I am doing here.
Um, so no, yeah, it's very beneficial for me being here, um, for what I do. Yeah, but one thing I'm dying to ask you, obviously with like your knowledge and [ __ ] what is your thoughts on the U.S. dollar right now and, you know, BRICS and yeah, everyone's switching off it.
And you know, you got a lot of countries trying to, you know, cut off their oil supply and essentially trying to, you know, [ __ ] them financially. Like what is—because I mean, obviously, you know, you've got a lot of people that think it's over. I think the U.S. is done.
But then I've also spoken to people in the oil and gas industry, and they're like, the dollar ain't going nowhere. Yeah, what are your thoughts on that? I am with the last group. I think that it's going to be very hard to change what's been in place for a long time, but I think that it's long overdue that nobody's ever tried.
And I think that these countries are starting to understand how much power they truly have because where is the money? It's not really in America. Saudi Arabia's got a lot of money, and they can dictate a lot of things and move a lot of things.
So if a few different countries align, they can begin in the process. It may take a lot of time, but I think that—I would love to see it, but I don't know whether it's possible, how long it will take.
But yeah, I mean, the whole world relying on one currency essentially is long overdue. But what's going to happen if it does turn into, let's call it a group of Saudi, China, or Russia? Is that good or is it bad? Is it better in the hands of the U.S. or is it better in those hands? What do you think?
You know, I kind of want to see it happen too just to see what happens. Yeah, but you know, at the same time, the dirham was pegged at the dollar, and that's true. Yeah, and it's like, like you're saying, bro, I don't know if that's, uh, you know, if I want, you know, China, Russia, you know, if I want them in charge and them calling the shots.
Because although, you know, I have my things that I don't love about the U.S., you know, at the same time, you know, it should still be smooth-ish. Yeah, you know, so—and I don't know, like you say, I don't know what that would look like with them, you know, in power.
So it's—I don't know. It's weird. It's weird times because, like you say, it's never happened before, so there's no like, you know, there's no—I don't know what's, you know, what's going to happen.
And like even now with like the whole crypto thing, you know, 2008 when the banks came crashing down, you didn't have an opposition. You know, Bitcoin's essentially was created for that purpose. So now, you know, you have the banks, which are still, if I'm not mistaken, you know, they're still not, you know, out of the dust yet.
And you know, now you have an opposition, you know, something that was created for that exact purpose. So I'm even, you know, keen to see what happens there, but I don't really know the answer to be honest.
Yeah, I think we're gonna have to wait and see how it all unravels. Nuts. What about the banks and stuff? What is your thought on that? Because for me, you know, a lot of people are like, oh, you know, Bitcoin's a scam, crypto's a scam.
What I've come to terms with is almost everything is a scam, and you know, everything's a Ponzi. Everything else, you know, traditional finance is a scam. You know, you have 90% of circulating money is not real. You know, 10% is real.
You know, if you had 100% of the population try and withdraw 12% of what they have, it doesn't work. It fails. So I was like, what's your whole take on that as well? I've never been a big fan of banks, and I think that there's still more damage to come in terms of some of these bigger players maybe getting unraveled.
Let's see. It just depends how much work they can do behind closed doors to get it under control. Um, but in terms of banks, like for myself personally, I try to keep no money in banks. I have a lot of bank accounts, but I don't trust them.
They don't play by the rules. They can just create any rule that they want. Like in the last year, I've had two of my bank accounts shut down for no reason at all, and both of these bank accounts were at the highest, highest level.
So if I'm at the highest, highest level in my bank and they're wanting to shut down my account for no reason, then what is the point of me keeping my money there? Yeah, Emirates NBD, great example, right? I still have my account there. Emirates NBD, they have a section—so for everybody listening, Emirates NBD is the biggest bank in the UAE, in Dubai.
They hold most of the wealth of this country. It's also slightly state-owned, I'd say. Um, I had the highest tier account for Emirates NBD. Now this is like a level that from what I've been told, this is what the guy told me.
Yeah, there's only 10,000 people in the whole country that have that level. And so he calls me up and he's like basically giving me an introduction to how it works and it's almost like congratulating me for reaching this level.
And I go, awesome, what do I get from this? Like what are you going to do for me for me keeping this money in the account? And he goes, well, what do you want? And I was like, well, can you do anything? Like can you get me a mortgage? Can you get me a line of credit? He couldn't do [ __ ] He couldn't do anything.
I was like, you want me to keep my money in your bank for absolutely no reason just so that you can have access to that? So after that, like I was just like, all right, [ __ ] that. I think back to you as well are a little bit, um, very, very—yeah, they're not like in Australia, Sweden, America.
There's a lot more regulation, and it's just a lot more solid. Whereas here, you never really know. And look, you can just go start a bank account in a second with really no history here.
Um, in other countries, there's a little bit more of a process. So yeah, banks don't like banks. Yeah, unreal. Um, what else were you—any questions?
No, really, bro. I feel like we covered a lot. Yeah, I'm hurt. I still got some [ __ ] if you called it. Um, no, Ross, hold you. I'm going to be splitting this one. I thoroughly enjoyed it, but there's a lot of people that obviously hate Andrew Tate.
But I feel like he was a big, you know, a big pinnacle for that. He was one of the first dudes that came out and rarely spoke his mind, really spoke what he thought. Because [ __ ] off the things I say on this pod, I would have never said two years ago.
I would have been—I would have been terrified to say, you know, a lot of the things that I've said. Yeah, because it would cancel shutdown. It wasn't acceptable. And there were so many people that just kept quiet and, you know, didn't want to talk about it.
But when—like who else has created a movement like Andrew Tate has in the last hundred years, or if not more? Like name one person. And I'm not talking about—you can't compare it to like Hitler or something because that's obviously [ __ ] up.
Yeah, yeah, but literally who has created such a [ __ ] widespread movement like he has? I haven't seen it done. I haven't heard about it done. No, literally Jesus Christ. And it happened so quickly.
Yeah, yeah, I just seen this bald head [ __ ] all over my whole world. Every guy just woke up and was like, yo, you know, started saying all this [ __ ] like they were here. Nowadays that it's becoming more normal now, but like before Andrew, there was very quiet. He revolutionized that.
Yeah, for sure. And like, you know, like we were saying a little bit before the pod, it's like I don't really know what his game plan is going forward because, you know, he did so much positivity and, you know, good things for, you know, not only just men, but, you know, anyone.
Because I feel like a lot of the time his messages, you know, it's taken and twisted. You know, his whole thing we were talking about the last part, you know, about being, you know, high valued. I don't think that that applies to, you know, just men.
You know, if you're a woman that is a CEO of a company and you are making disgusting amounts of bread, you know, you call the shots, then, you know, it's not just about just the high valued males. You know, just high valued in general.
So I, yeah, it's—I don't know what he's gonna do going forward because all the good that he's done and he just, you know, didn't essentially get paid for it type thing. And, you know, when he's gone to jail for—I think that sometimes these things can be the best things that ever happened to anybody.
Like a great example is, um, what's her name? The chick that got detained in Russia, Brittany Griner. That's for the weed WNBA star who got caught with a vape. Now she went to Russia, she gets arrested, she goes to jail, extremely traumatic experience.
She was in jail for three, four, five months, right? Horrible experience. I don't hope—I don't wish it on anyone. Now you come out, you go back to America. So what happens to her after that happens?
She starts getting paid for interviews. Now she's getting brand deals. Yeah, that is the—what happened to her life since that happened? Was it better or worse after she went to jail in Russia?
So going back to Andrew Tate, I think that this has only elevated him. And if he's smart with his moves of what he does, like I genuinely think that Andrew Tate could probably just with speaking alone sell out arenas in every city around the world.
So his brand alone, even if he has five dollars to his name, his brand alone just from speaking is worth hundreds of millions. This jail thing hasn't affected or changed any—especially any male's opinion.
They all value what he's just done for society, right? Sure, you don't hear too many people unless it's like a small community of, let's say, the leftists or the work that are going, oh, see, he was guilty. You know, he is in jail.
But most other people are like for him and favor him a lot. And so this has only elevated him. And that's why some rappers in music, they're about to fall off, and then they go to jail, and after they get out of jail, they become massive.
Yeah, because that just elevated their whole image. And so that's why I think this is only good for Andrew Tate. Like it may have been a traumatic experience for him, but if he's smart, he can make more money than ever and be bigger than ever.
Yeah, it's kind of like get punished for a couple months of your life and then [ __ ] it. Yeah, put me in jail, bro. Yeah, yeah, I mean, I've found—yeah, if I'm set, if I know, yeah, dude, [ __ ] it.
I mean, Brittany Griner was on like what—what was her salary? Like 100k years, a WNBA player, and now you get out of jail, and now you're making millions.
Yeah, but did you see the trade that they made for her? No, for the merchant. So—oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Merchant of death, that was his nickname. Crazy. Unreal.
But yeah, you know, good for her. Um, so I mean, last thing before we wrap it up, any chance that crazy story came to mind? Oh, [ __ ] give me—give me a few seconds. I'm not good at coming up with, um, stuff that's crazy when you got to think about it.
Yeah, yeah, that's absolutely—I can't do it on the spot. Yeah, I'm really hard at doing stuff. When you meet like all these celebrities and stuff, are they cool dudes? Do you like them? Like how does that go?
Most—most guys are like a bit full of themselves. Most of them, it's very rare that you meet somebody that is down to earth and humble and modest. Um, because, bro, like what do you expect?
I mean, it will happen to all of us if you've got just people around you every single day that are telling you how good you are and you're the best, and it's kind of hard to get out of that. And if your fame just stays the same, you just have this God complex.
Like, yeah, I know just behind the scenes of a lot of people that are super messed up, and they'll never get out of that. Like I saw some messages the other day from one of my friends who was DMing Chris Brown, and it was just so random.
Like I'm not gonna—actually, no, I can't say this story. Yeah, okay, okay. Yeah, I'm trying to think of something else. We can edit here to—no, no worries, bro. Take your time.
Yeah, [ __ ] hell, any [ __ ] stories? I'm trying to think of the best one. You guys got any stories? I got asked the same thing. I did a podcast with my friends in Sweden, and they were like, tell us the craziest like party whatever you've been through, and I couldn't do it because it's just so hard when you have a lot, and you don't really think about it on a daily basis.
You know, I don't have anything with famous people or anything really. Um, well, I'm not famous, but, uh, when I was in Arizona one night, um, a bunch of like the TikTok kids were there, and I'm cool with one of the dudes behind the scenes that, you know, kind of just manages them.
I was like, yo, come out to the club and write, you know, it's college towns. You just have that one street. It's called Mill, and went there, got hammered, and last thing I remember is Rod officer that you have West six, which is like the main like apartment building that all the students live in.
And, uh, the owner of this club also had the penthouse there, and so we were going there, and the last thing I remember, I was a bit of a nuisance back then. You know, I was like, this needs to change. I remember walking, um, walking there, and then the rest was just a—and I woke up the next day in the same apartment complex because my friend that I bought with me, he lived in there as well.
But I woke up on a couch, and I'm looking, you know, opposite the couch, and I see like this [ __ ] crazy looking couch that wasn't there before. I was like, yo, bro, when did you pick this up? I was like, this is [ __ ] wild.
So you don't remember? I was like, what? He's like, you picked that [ __ ] up by yourself. It's like a three-person couch. Obviously, the elevator went straight to the penthouse, walked it into the elevator, and just jogged the couch. Just completely taken.
So that was, uh, that was honestly one of my lost where I was like, something needs to change. Something needs to change. And then Marco, one of my friends, goes and records, puts it in his YouTube video, and it got clipped.
And I was still in Arizona. It's like a few days after it happened. Obviously, you know, you notice if a couch disappears from your apartment. Yeah, and this video has like half a million views, and I was like, bro, for [ __ ] sakes, half a million views.
Like the clip on TikTok, and so—and it also gets pumped up to, you know, your geolocation, which was Arizona. So that's when I made the move to Houston. I was like, we got to get out of here now, and I fast-tracked it a couple weeks because that got out there real quick.
So that was not good, bro. Crazy. I'll tell a story of one that I already posted. Okay, have you seen that one? I don't know. Okay, it was, um, uh, about Jamie Foxx.
Oh yeah, yeah, I think I saw some—can I tell it again? Uh, so I was with the artist that I manage, and I got a call on my phone, and I answered the call, and I used to get a lot of these random calls. Just—I don't know how these people, these high-level people get numbers, but apparently there's a way to get numbers.
So I got a call, and I was like, who is this? And the other line was like, it's Jamie. And I was like, Jamie who? And he's like, Jamie Foxx. And I was like, what the [ __ ]? Like, can you put your FaceTime on so I can believe this?
So I see that it's Jamie Foxx, and I was like, what the [ __ ]? And he's like, I really want to meet Will. Can you guys come out to, um, to where I am in Calabasas? So we end up going to Calabasas, and he's in this like gym, and they won't let us into this gym.
So he comes out, and he's like, why didn't you guys just go wait at my house? Pulls out like 10 grand of like 100 bills and he's like, take some money for some snacks. Like, what the [ __ ]? He's like, yeah, just go follow this route, and you'll go to my house.
So we go to his house, and um, we're waiting for hours for this guy to arrive, just like wandering through the house alone. [ __ ] crazy experience. What the [ __ ]? And then we are—we going? He eventually comes back, and we're just like sitting there, and he's telling us all his celebrity stories and all his crazy things that has happened to him.
And yeah, that was a wild experience. Like it probably—that's crazy. Yeah, experience because a lot of people have celebrity stories. Like I've met plenty of celebrities.
Yeah, what have you actually done? You know, what experiences have you had? And those I think are hard. I feel like when you get to that level, it's just [ __ ] insane. Like some of the [ __ ] that you would have to like care about, you know, most people have never even heard of or thought of, and it's just like it's a regular thing when you get to that level.
Yeah, it's pretty crazy. Yeah, who gives a [ __ ] bro? Like celebrities are personal. Yeah, I know for sure. End of the day, nothing in that matters.
Yeah, um, okay, bro, before we wrap up, I wanted to ask you, you know, you're obviously in a very good place in life. You've, you know, done some [ __ ] crazy things, you know, becoming a millionaire at 16 is nuts.
What advice would you have to anyone that, you know, might be lost? You know, you're still working on finding your purpose, but you know, any of the young dudes out there or women that are trying to, you know, I don't think many women listen to us, but you know, that are trying to, you know, achieve something and they don't really have a path.
I think that if you have come into life at an early age and you believe that you have some sort of skill or purpose—like mine was music—I think everybody has something. You should listen to what your intuition is telling you about that and to follow down that path.
Because whatever your true purpose is, if you follow it and you chase it and you're hardworking and you dedicate yourself, the money is going to come no matter what. But if you're going to go down another path where it's just about money and it's just about hustling and it's just about I need to get all these things for no reason, you're never going to be happy.
So I try to tell everybody, make sure that you go and find your purpose because everything will come to you from that. Well said. Unreal, bro.
How do you—uh, often saw the picture this last thing, I promise, and I'm gonna shut up. How do you know Charles Oliveira, bro? I remember seeing that one on Instagram, and I was like, yeah, Joe, it's crazy.
Yeah, I've become friends with a few of the UFC fighters. I think you just sort of like meet them through other ones. Yeah, okay. But that guy, like he's a [ __ ] nice guy.
Yeah, he seems very chill, bro. He's a good guy. Yeah, unreal. Yeah, man, we're rounding up. Yeah, you are—anything else you want to add? You want to really do socials or anything, bro?
Drop your solution. Else you want to say? Ah, follow me, Julian Petralis on Instagram. Um, I started Twitter, right? I started Twitter, but [ __ ] that's hard to keep up.
Yeah, yeah, you got to be super creative all the time with—I don't know how you do it, bro, but I'm just [ __ ] [ __ ] it's so stupid. I'll follow you after this, but yeah, after this, I think all of us need to just go crazy with YouTube.
It's the only way to like get people to the other platforms. Yeah, I mean now with reels, okay, you're starting to get momentum again, but TikTok, bro, TikTok as well.
Yeah, um, but YouTube is the way to really like become something. You can blow up on TikTok, you can blow up on Instagram, but what does it convert to? I've seen people with millions of TikTok followers, and they can't convert it to Instagram, or they can't convert it to being a brand name.
So I feel like if you can crack it on YouTube, then the rest just follow. Yeah, look at streamers. Like streamers have now become bigger than musicians. It used to be Jay-Z to be a YouTuber.
It used to be cheesy to be a streamer, and now they're [ __ ] cooler than rappers. 100%. Yeah, we've got to blow up on YouTube, boys. Easy.
All right, bro, well, uh, that was a [ __ ] by far one of my favorite parts of everything. Sure, thank you very much for coming. Yeah, appreciate it, bro. I learned a lot, and uh, yeah, thank you so much.
You got to take me to the gym. Yeah, get something. Yeah, no issue, bro. Hey, thank you, boys. Thank you, man.
All right, boys, thank you for listening. Um, we will be back hopefully next week. Uh, like, subscribe, all that good [ __ ] and uh, catch you next time. See ya.
