(00:00):
Clay three, your boy wild Waynecoming out to that's wrap right there on
the five o'clock fixed with d Jroe Ay. But as promised, I
try to toll y'all. I wasgonna have the Wall Street trapping in the
building and I need some applause.Give it out of the wall Street dripping.

(00:21):
The family was having what's your baby? I'm good, man, glad
to be home. You know that. You know that, man, I
am really excited to have you back. We've had all kind of phone conversations
and I've been seeing a center andit's always good for somebody straight from the
soil of the Crescent, homegrown thatdidn't any thing and excelled against all eyes.

(00:45):
Come on, man, and nowyour journey is financial education, financial
literacy, people getting better, youknow, especially in a city where quite
off of education has not been apriority, where creating generational wealth has not

(01:06):
been been a priority for people thathave our same skin tone. But at
this point, like you are breakingthe cycle with your teachings. But you
were one of those people at onepoint that was at the bottom in mid
city. Get it out to Mike, get it how you live so we
know how to do. Man.Just you know, man, I just

(01:27):
feel like even though that wasn't ina playbook for us in the city,
that don't mean the playbook don't exist, right, So sometimes we gotta go
out and find it. For me, you knew what happened to me while
I was in prison, But onceyou get exposed to something where you go
to prison for a murder on robberyman sixteen years old? Man, you
know, did that dime came home? My mind wasn't still right. I

(01:48):
still had the streets engraved in me. But I think sometimes once a see
you get planted in you. Sometimesit takes some time foot the nurture.
Sometimes it takes some time foot tocome into fruition. But when it do,
you ainyth deny it. And soonce I just realize these people making
all this money and all we knewhow to do down here is risk our
life for it, I was like, man, I won't go back to
prison no more, and we knowthat I would come, would come with
the streets. Man, you can'tavoid that. I mean, anybody with

(02:13):
any recollection of what goes down inthe water, you know, the streets
turning out mad like you're losing alife. Someone else losing the life.
You lose your life in jail fora bid. You just calling that ficial
cycle. It's a lot that getstaken away from trying to get the little
bit of piece of cheese on thattrip. Yeah, we're trying to squeeze,
like trying to squeeze blood out ofturn up, you know, because

(02:35):
we don't have that many we don'tget exposed to a lot of resources in
the water. So I always speakto that because even though I'm proud to
be from here, you know,we lack a lot of those resources.
So for me to just get thisinformation, it's only right that I come
home and I'm always repping the Orleansbecause I feel like I can be that
person to plant those seeds man.And I know the city loved me because
they've washed the growth as well.Everybody knew me from what I used to

(02:59):
be doing, even when I graduatedto just working a job. Wait,
went to high school. Now Iwent to Kennedy, got put out of
I got put out man, andI had to go to Book a Tea
and then that book and t Iwas just like, yo, it's a
culture shock. Then went the Bookof Tea Man, and then I was
just like, you know what,man, I just got I was all

(03:20):
in. I just left book ofTea and I just was all in on
the streets. I went to hustand every day all day and then wind
up going to prison and for tmmerd again, just born and raised in
Men City. It's just really gettinghigh. I live my playbook like a
lot of other people. Playbook.You lose. It's easy to lose hope
down hill right right, easy tolose hope, you know what I'm saying.
Heasy to get caught up in allright, this this is my life.
But then when you go to andI'm not highlighting, but I went

(03:43):
to Atlanta for a Saints Falcon's game. I was like, damn, black
people living like this kind of justshifting my hope. I was like,
wait, something name right, youknow what I'm saying. So I would
come back home and I would kindof be depressed, you know, but
I had I had been exposed toit, and I'm like, it's something
different out here. And from thenI felt like the stock market was my
gateway. Like I feel like workingwasn't gonna get me the I knew,

(04:05):
damn sure, hustling wasn't gonna getme there, and I was like,
man, this gotta work like this, this is nothing else, and so
I just went all in on it. Man. And it's just like losing
weight. Man. You see alittle progress, you get dedicated to you
know what I'm saying. I sawa little progress might this two thousand twelve,
two thirteen. I wasn't making awhole bunch of money, right,
you know what I'm saying. Buthere we are nine twenty twenty three and

(04:27):
just ship just to day we didtwenty thousand. You know what I'm saying.
I'm giving them the very exaggerated ButI watched you all the time.
Yeah, and you know what Ilike about what you post. I'm gonna
tell you my favorite part about especiallywhen you talk about your trades and option

(04:50):
buys, is the fact that youmay tell them about a twenty grand day,
which also tell them about the seventygrand day, which might be followed
up one hundred grand days. AndI think the honesty is where it's at.
You know, I did a coupleof really dope endorsement campaigns, but
I told them the only way Icould do it if I could show them
the rain of days, right,because there will be rainy days in this

(05:13):
but you got to know the longterm goal facts. And I'm speaking like
I need to be doing. I'mtired. I'm tired of you, all
of me saying, man, thedude trap. But I think for me,
it's important that a lot of timespeople show the wins and then show
the losses. And for me,the losses was cool because again, coming
up in the street, you know, you gotta take losses. You might

(05:34):
go to jail, or you're gonnago to jail. You need a law.
You're buying money, somebody might hityour stash, you might get rid.
That's losses you gotta take in thegame. So when we playing the
stock market, it was saying,ah, you're like, I'm cool with
them losses because my life and myfreedom main on the line. It's just
some money. The machine gonna printmoney. All I gotta do is actively
play the machine every single day.The consequences of building wealth is a lifetime

(05:57):
of freedom. Man, you knowwhat I'm saying. So for me,
it ain't need much about money,and I know everybody it's gonna be about
money until money is no longer theissue. So let's get the money issues
out of the way so we canstart saying the full benefits of the machine.
So I want my mind. Itshould be a necessity that everybody,
especially in New Orleans, man,learn how to play the stock market game.

(06:17):
Man. You can make more moneyof this. You can make your
job in a year. Man.And it's real like I've had some losses,
but I had some amazing wins.How to win field though you feel
like you're invincible? Is you feelinvincible? You feel like, Okay,
you know what if I keep doingthat, If I keep doing this possible,

(06:41):
even if I just get a basehit, I don't have to hit
a home run. Even if Iget a base hit on a regular every
time I'm at back, I'm good. That's it, right. And you
know what I told I told mykids, Yo, take some of your
little work money, get you acouple of stocks, and just watch it.
Get something that you know about.Or my son, that's crazy,

(07:01):
he said, I see how muchmoney my mom's been on build a bear
for my sister. And build aBear was a winner during the pandemic.
I don't think, but and thenI can't remember the other one. It
was like Target it's like my momgoes to Target all the time. Uh,
and it was it had done well. But nonetheless, the point is
that if you can get educated aboutthis money, you can change your life.

(07:23):
You see people talking about these highinterest these high interest accounts, and
I think it's kind of a littlebit of a fallacy because you know,
everybody ain't got a million dollars toget that six percent, right. Yeah,
man, I don't believe in Idon't believe in the banking system like
that, right, because you gotto realize if you're making zero point zero

(07:43):
one, zero point zero two,even if you're getting two percent on your
money, Yeah, that's crumbs whenyou think about the people playing with a
whole loaf. Yes, And Ithink for us, we get sold because
we don't have an information. Wethink the crumbs be a feast, you
feel, because we don't got theinformation, we think the crumbs being a
feast. At the same time,ain't looking at the crumbs like yup as
crumbs. We'll tell them about twopercent while I'm over here getting forty percent,

(08:07):
fifty percent while trippling my money.And what happens is when we don't
had any information and we don't havethe resources. It's hard for us to
see the bigger picture. So forme, the stock market opened the game
up to the bigger picture. Like, Nah, why would I be comfortable
with a yearly saddery when I canmake a yearly salary in a day.
But it's gonna take time for meto get there. Our problem too is

(08:28):
we always let that's gonna take toolong. Well, if you're gonna work
forty years, you got time.If you're gonna go to college for four
years, you got time. Youknow what I'm saying. So let's take
the four years and learn how toplay the market. Now we're when you
get somebody that know how to playthe game. Now you cut that time
from four years to two years.So one year, now you can retire
you instead of being sixty five,you're gonna retire you at forty five,

(08:50):
twenty five, thirty, whatever youwant. Right, So that's not just
scaling your account, of scaling yourlife. I won't teach people how to
scale your life so you can havethem opportunities. And you talked about somebody
kids just now, I did thatall my daughter. My daughter was one,
we started investing. She half amillion to the good at seven.
And that's because Daddy just knew howto play the gid. Daddy just know
how to play the game once daddy, Once Mom and Daddy know how to

(09:13):
play the game. Now it becomeseasy for the children know how to play
the game. Now wants the kidsknow how to play the game. Now
it's easy for the grand You changeyour whole lineage, you change your whole
family by one piece of information.So let me ask you this, especially
when you're going in that direction.Can anybody invest? Everybody can't get a
master's degree, but everybody can investin the stock market. Everybody can't get

(09:33):
a PhD. Everybody can't no matterwhat your i Q level is, no
matter what your income level is.The stock market is probably the only game
in the world that don't discriminate onage race. It just won't know if
you got the money to play thegame. M if you could play the
game, you know. It's whyit's I call it it's a money printer,
right, I call my people weprofessional money printers. We print money

(09:56):
legally, right. Ain't nothing likebeing able to say, like today twenty
three thousand today, and all Idid today was stop on broad and banks
and get a gumbo and went bymy cousin and got my head cut.
Right, I ain't there nothing elsethat's a good day. It's a good
day. Like I was telling mylittle pie. I was like, yo,

(10:16):
I did my options, I wentin the gym, did my little
circuit in the gym, came out, had a bag. I was like,
and it's best best day ever.And it's different, right. And
what I love about this game islike, and I know why it's hard
for people to believe in it.It's because when we look at the information
that we see about alway here isthe marketing crash and it's pumping dump.

(10:41):
So now you know how hard youwork for that money. And the first
thing you think about it is Iwon't lose my money, right, that's
the first thing you think about.But nobody don't tell you why they lost.
Well, because I got this.I got this information from my cousin
brother old man. Hey, numberone rule, number one rule, don't
bladen new you don't got some informationfor somebody who got a hot tip and

(11:03):
started saying where did you get itfrom? So for me, your confidence
gonna. I'm telling you, it'snothing like knowing that you can go make
some money. You can stay onvacation a little longer. You know you
you it was in valley or somewhere, oh, saying, I think I'm
standing out the week, I stayeda little longer and I used the money.
That was the first time I evertook money out of my account.

(11:26):
I took the thirty grand out myfrom my options. Okay, someone to
let the market pay for this,and no, I went made some options
players. I sold like eight contracts. We got the thirty grand. Sweden
a Ruba fella and I'm from NewOrleans. Man, I'm on a villa.
I'm looking at the ocean. I'mjumping in the ocean. I'm like,
man, I've never seen that.I got the ocean at the bottom,

(11:46):
Like, man, I never seenthat. But that's the power of
the market. Opened up opportunities,and it opened up a life that you
ain't never seen before. And ifyou had that confidence to do it and
just stick with it and go tosomebody who can teach it to you,
man, it's gonna be a gamechange. So you got a game changer
tomorrow. Let's go tell me aboutthe game change you got tomorrow. Going

(12:09):
down at the Orpheum Theater. Let'sgo, man. So we got the
Recession Tour. And the reason whyI called it, that's because we typically
still in a recession, and inrecessions, the people at the bottom feel
it the most. And so forme, it was like, all right,
let me go hit these cities.So I gotta come home. I'm
bringing Eric Thomas with me a numberone motivation. Bro, that's my og.
I'm bringing Rick Ross, a goodfriend of mine. Rose coming through

(12:31):
pulling up? Is he bringing thecows. I'm the reason why Rose got
the cows. I was on thelike, bro, you gotta put something
here to offset these bills, rightright? He when got the animals.
But so we got that. Inthe game, the goal is to teach
us the game, no matter whatlevel you on, step by step,
how to play the options game.How to beat the market, meaning the

(12:54):
market. Right now it's a fourteenpercent I'm up twenty five percent. I
beat the market lashing in a deepersession by twenty by sixteen percent, the
market was down. They ain't thestuff they gonna teach you. This come
from experience, right, and soyou know we show people that. So
I want people to feel more confidentabout making money and investing. And once
I change your confidence financially, man, you can walk through the world just
different. So that's what the recessionsabout. Man. See, I'm so

(13:16):
happy that it's a person like yourselfthat's doing it right because a lot of
people have lived this same life.Yeah right, and they have excuses.
Yeah, And I'm not saying thatthat's bad because you don't ever know someone's
entire situation or picture, right,if they have any sort of support system,
or maybe they never had the driveand desire. But a lot of

(13:39):
stories are very similar to yours.People. I'll tell people all the time
that when people hear my story,they'd be like, man, your story
a movie. I would like,just come to New Orleans. Man.
That's probably eight out of nine peoplestory. Yeah. Yeah, you know
what I'm saying. I just seenthem before two minute times. But I
will say this, man, like, I ain't use none of it as

(14:00):
an excuse. Like you can havean excuse and the excuses will sound good
to you. But I ain't hadno support. My mom was in prison,
my grandmother passed away. I washome this for a couple of years.
That's all right, you know whatI'm saying, Like, I ain't
blaming nobody put myself in prison,I came home. I could have used
that ex excuse, Man, Idid ten years in prison, blah blah
blah, and I ain't tripping onthat. I ain't had no fault in
my life. All right, Well, I'm a damn good father. Ain't

(14:22):
the excuses when you won't make herand you gotta take accountability? So I
would like you, ain't no excuseeither. I'm gonna get rich. I'm
gonna get wealthy. Fifty died trying, you know what I'm saying. And
I knew the streets wasn't nitting nomore. And I knew working a job
nothing against it. But I knewthat when I looked at the people doing
I don't work with me. Iwas like, I don't won't be sixty
five climbing buildings right right right,So tomorrow is the day of accountability for

(14:46):
the people out there. So it'sgoing down at the or for your five
o'clock, five o'clock you do,you're trapping Tuesdays every Tuesday. But in
New Orleans, it's gonna be livewith the recession to her. If people
want to come and learn. Ye, you fill it with affirmations on you
also fill it with education on UH. And you're gonna tell them how to
get to the bag. So youcould talk about it or you could be

(15:09):
about it. Tickets are on salenow at Recession Tour Live dot com.
Yes, get them get there early. If you're boss tripping, tell them
you need to leave a little earlyto morrow. You got the bubble guts
or something, you need to leaveearly. But get there, get whatever
it takes to get there, andget there because you're moving to another city

(15:31):
after this. How many cities haveyou done so far? So now we've
done eight cities total, not nine. All I gotta not. So we're
gonna finish with New Orleans. We'regonna do La filling in Dallas. But
we're talking about New Orleans right right. New Orleans beat at Amara and that's
all that counts. Like it's youropportunity to get that education. You've seen

(15:52):
so many UH snake oil salesman online people tell you this, that and
the other, like you are livingthis. I can't get you rich overnight.
I can't do that right. Idon't know how to get your rich
overnight. I can't do that becauseit don't happen now. Can't turn a
thousand into a million, right,not overnight, But you can't turn the
thousand into eleven hundred. I cando that, or twelve hundred I can
