Legacy Capital: The Investment That Changes Your Bloodline

0:00When it comes to the legacy capital, are we making the investment to put the people that come behind us in position? What we doing is not just about money. I know on the front end, it seems as though it is. But what we do is not just about money. And when we look at some people, we see that they inherit money. We see that some people inherit massive wealth. We see that people even inherit systems already built. And a lot of you all, including myself who watch this each and every week, you all, that ain't your story. Everybody are 90% of us. You building it from the mud. You building it with just an idea in front of you. You building it with just the thought of what if?

1:01But what I've learned and what I've read is that the imagination can sometimes be the most powerful thing that you possess. Now don't give me tonight. Tonight is not to get you robbed up. What I want to do tonight is I want to anchor you to something that's bigger than you. I want you to understand that what's at risk right now? What's at stake right now? I want you to understand that the decisions that you make today have a ripple effect, not just on your kids, but on your entire bloodline. See, I thought about something when I was at home this weekend and I was talking to my uncle. I'm looking at my own man and my own probably in his, you know, early 60s, probably mid 60s. And he said something to me because I had got my daughter

2:01and then I had went to school with my little cousin up who go to Diller. You know, and they wanted some Crawford, so we did that. And my uncle told me something. He said, man, I'm counting on you enough. And I said, what? Because he was sitting in the, he got this thing, it's called Club Flutz. It's a little patio he built in his backyard. Right? And they got like benches he built and they got a little cover. You know, he got the little Jamaican flags and the other flags. All African flags back there. African descent, like Haiti and, you know, and his son was inside, my cousin was inside. And I said, sit on, I asked him a question. I said, let's go get the Crawford. He said, you know, the wall inside, bro. I said, man, let me go get it, man.

3:01He said, hey, man, you know what? Now, I wasn't going to say nothing. I just figured he was going to get it, but I'm counting on you now. And that did something to me. And I said, counting on me, he said, yeah. We come from under that last regime of the family. And I thought about that regime. It was my grandmother. It's called a big red. And she was tough as nails. I'm talking about, I remember being five, six, seven years old. Getting up in the morning at three o'clock. This is no light. George is right here. Getting up at three o'clock, riding from New Orleans to Mississippi to load two trucks full of water. Melano, cantaloupe, collagreens or mustard. Whatever was in season.

4:02Driving back to New Orleans, taking the shower and then going to school. On weekends, I had to go in the east on Crowder. Eight nines by myself. She would give me a little 22 in a pouch. And I would have to learn how to sell watermelons to people. And I had a quota every Saturday and every Sunday. I had to sell at least 25 watermelons. No protection, no nothing. No cell phone. You get that at nine o'clock in the morning and you leave that five or six o'clock though. Whenever I come pick that truck up. And she had three trucks. She would make deliveries to restaurants across the city. She had another truck with the OG. His name was Willie. He had him parked uptown. And I was parked in the east. And I remember having to do that. That was my summer. You said, and I'm not paying you.

5:04You get paid tips. So you better learn how to sell in watermelons and make them people give you a tip. That's my regime. And I did that year after year after year after year after year. But it built something in me. It gave me hustle. It gave me like, I got to protect what we build in. It gave me a sense of pride. And I remember being about 12 years old, 11 years old before she passed away. And I remember somebody came and tried to sell watermelons. They tried to put their truck behind her truck. So she went to the city hall and bought the strip. And told the dude, if you want hustle here, I own this part of the strip. You got to pay me rent. And this part is for me. So she made him move and he had to pay her to be there. And I thought that was just some of the most gangster stuff I ever seen. And it made me respect her at a different way. But it was the other things that she did in me.

6:05I knew you like to try it. I wanted your story like that. I'm saying all that to say. This is what my uncle said. You come from mother. This kind of regime. That ain't about money right there. What he telling me. What he telling me is, oh, enough. I'm in my 60s. I don't, I got some time here. But you the last one that come from that regime. So you got to implement that and everything that come. That's what that meant to me. And so I'm telling y'all that you may not have had my grandmother. But you had somebody, your family, that installed something in you. And when you get caught in looking at the TikToks and the Instagrams and the Facebook, you get caught up in looking at all that. And you forget that. You the last of that regime. You get caught up in that. It's not about money. What are you going to implement in them? That's the legacy capital right there. And it made me from that point on the rest of the week.

7:08And I want to tell them my daughter about my life. I want to tell them how about my grandmother. I'm like, your great grandmother made me do this. Your great grandmother had me doing this. And I was doing this. And I remember this. And I remember that. And she went to ask me more and more questions. And it made me realize, like, this is the regime. Because we bought the gold. Like, there's an error that's coming up. Not that has no idea what the bloodline looked like. There's an error right now. I don't know what family reunions are. Because just ask me. He said, hey, come. Are we going to Orlando? This is for Christmas. That's something I started a couple of years ago. Every year for Christmas, you know, we going to Orlando. We getting a big old house, 17 rooms. And I said, hey, I'm only going to pay for this a couple of years. After that, y'all got to, y'all got to at least pay half on it. Or y'all got to pay for it. I know you hear the trap man. We hear the talk about stocks. I'm telling you that we so focused on the money. We forget that there's a blueprint.

8:08There's a legacy that we got to leave. What's the legacy we leave behind? Yep, I get the money. We're going to get the money. But what's the money without no meaning? What's the money without no memories? That's the money help us gain momentum? That's the money help us win our family back. Because that's what it's about for me. I walked in front of building, just not before this episode. And I said, bro, I told a psychiatrist. So this is a big old building, bro. And for some reason, it just hit me how big this building is. And I said, bro. It's the first of many. Turning that last name to a asset, meaning more than just money, it's a regime change. So can the family hand you off something? Can they put it in your hand and say, hey, when I go, I know we ain't good hands. Like, that's what my uncle told me that. I'm not going to lie.

9:09That's what that meant to me. It's like, hey, enough. When I leave, we ain't good hands. Because the people before me left it to me. My mom, what? His grandma, his mom, his grandmother, his great aunts. They left it to him. And so now we all go to him for knowledge and information and we go to him for language and we go to him to ask questions. He, he, he, he to one. And so when he tell me, I'm like, oh, I'm the one. So now what's the pillars that 43? What's the pillars that I got to put in place? Now, so I can hand it off to somebody. Does it all go away with him? Because at one time it was George's mom. She was the last one. So we all went to her house for everything. We called her for everything. And she was the close, he was the closest to her.

10:09My uncle. And so like, I'm asking you, I'm asking you on the, when we look at the Walton's, let me make it make most sense to you. Like, let me, let me shine like, because you might don't understand what I'm saying. When we think about the Walton, Sam Bendet. Sam Bendet. Right? The, the initiate of the Rockefeller legacy, he bendet. The, the initiate of the rock child's legacy, he bendet. The initiate of the Mars legacy, he out of here. The JP, he gone. The original goldnet gone. Put the legacy still intact. When people think, well, they still the first thing they say, raw shells. I'm, Sam ain't had an idea of Walmart being this big, but as it is, now Disney died before he can see the first

11:10roller coaster go up. But guess what? Disneyland. We, we talking about legacy capital right here, y'all. And listen, markets go up, markets go down. That's cool. We gonna endure that. We, we gonna endure that. Real estate go up, real estate go down. We endure that. We take some losses. We take some wins. We endured all that. What's the legacy capital at risk right now? And I promise you this. That man in office, he ain't got to, he ain't, he ain't got 30 more years left. But guess what he done right here in office? We don't like none. A lot of stuff he's done. But guess what he's doing? Why we pissed off about a whole bunch of stuff that's going on? They showed a clip of him paying golf the other day. He like, y'all get to that without get to it. He playing golf. But guess what we know for a fact that he's doing? His family gonna be good when he leaves.

12:11He putting them in position. He putting them in position. And so all I want, I want access tonight, like, when it comes to the legacy capital, are we making the investment to put the people that come behind us in position? Yeah, I'm not, I'm not going, I'm not trying to rob you up tonight. I'm not trying to, I want you to think tonight. I want you to really put it in your head like, yo, I'm enduring this. I see this cycle. How do I get better through each cycle? How does the same thing I endured now when I go through it in two, three years from now when it happens again? Am I better? Can I prepare the people that's coming behind me? Can I prepare my wife for this? Can I prepare my husband for this? Can I prepare my grandkids for this? When we build it right now, y'all, I promise y'all, we had one of the most pivotal times of,

13:13not just a generation, but of an era. The media making us rage bait. The media making us pissed off. Everybody on YouTube. Everybody, they making us pissed off be mad. It's black men against black women. It's republicans against democrats. It's gays against non-gays. We find everything to fight about. It's done like, yo, what's the legacy blooper and we got to leave behind. My little cousin texted me something that I said, hey, man, we trying to go get a hundred million. Man, I ain't tripping on that. The goal is a hundred million. Anything that takes me off the goal of a hundred million, I don't want no parts of it. Anything that takes me away from building this freedom center all out so I can have a blueprint to go build number two, I don't want no parts of it. Anything that's going to help take me away from impacting as many people as I can, I don't want no parts of it. Talk to David Schanzel, day on the phone. I said, say, I just want you to know, you said something on Thursdays the other day, bro, that inspired the hell out of me. He said, what I said, trap. I said, you said, beefing with me online is a one-man sport

14:14because I'll never entertain you. I said, bro, when I saw that, I said, bro, when I saw that, it did something to my heart. He said, yeah, bro, because I know when I'm at the bill, bro. He said, bro, I'm building for my wife. I'm building for my kids. He said, if you beefed with one, once that's over with, somebody else is going to find something else that ain't going to like what you're doing. And somebody else ain't going to like what you're doing. And the more you make progress and the more you succeed, the more people are not going to like what you're doing. And anything that gives people the easiest access to you, so why am I fighting all of them battles? I'm just focusing on me and my family. And I'm going to just keep it. I said, bro, I'm telling you, you saved my whole brain just now. And I took off the Instagram for a minute. After we put the last post up, today was my first post in a whole week. Because I took a whole week to just sit in my brain and say, what am I building? What am I building? What am I really after? And it made me think about this weekend, bringing my daughter

15:18and showing my daughter the exact house where I slept in. I say, this house right here been abandoned. Since your daddy was a little boy and I slept in there with no mattress, I will go steal blankets from the goodwill. She said, right, I say, right dust, ain't. And my daughter told me something, bro, that shook my spirit. She said, dad, I'm proud of you. I could have melted in my hand. It lets me know that I'm building the right thing. And so anything that takes me off of this is a distraction. It's a detour. And I need you to understand that, too. Yes, we gonna get the money. That's what, y'all, newsflash. If you stay in the game long enough, you gonna get the money. Let's get out. If you stay in the game long enough, I promise you, you gonna get the money. Because if you stay in the game long enough, you gonna learn from the mistakes.

16:18That's what I thought. Once you lose some money, you learn fast. You lose it enough times, you gonna make a decision to make the corrections. So if you stay in the game long enough, you gonna get some money. Stop trying to get it all, you ain't gonna get it all right now. Play the long game. Consistency, corrections, evolving, evolution. That's how the billionaires become billionaires. That's how the best traders become the best traders. That's how the best businessmen and women become the best men. They don't got it all figured out, but they played a long game. But you got the pressure. You let the media put the pressure on you. You let the people over here put the pressure on you. And now you trying to accelerate the process. One good trade. I wanna quit my job today. Play the long game. Legacy capital. Legacy capital.

17:18Legacy is not built in a year. Legacy is not built in two years. Legacy is not built in five years. Legacy is built in a lifetime. Let me rephrase that. It's take a lifetime to build a legacy. And the great ones that build a legacy. If we look at the start, if we look at the beginning, if we look at the introductory to the game, his will understand. Tom Brady is not considered the best quarterback of all time. But he was a hundred and ninety-nine pick of the draft. Michael Jordan. We didn't believe Michael was gonna be Mike early on in his career. But guess what? Six championships later. Three feet, quick, three feet. The great ones build a legacy over time. But we trying to be great in the era that only show us the great moments of life and not the failures.

18:21Everybody, everybody is trying to get this small game. Everybody is trying to show the highlight reel. Everybody is trying to show the present. Everybody is trying to get the most views. Everybody and nobody ain't bigger. And I made me realize in this mentorship I went in, I sat around a bunch of eight and nine pick of people and none of them know how to operate the Instagram. I sat in this room with these people. And they're like, Instagram, I don't really be doing that. And I'm not saying nothing wrong with us, because you know, we come up in this, you know, we're like, hey, I get on this room, gotta get this vibe. They're like, I don't really, I just, y'all got, I ain't paid taxes in 10 years, bro, I'm straight. You wanna invest in this wild game? Thing with me, this I don't pay taxes. I go invest in wild game areas. I go invest in old rigs. This is, I don't even know what viral is.

19:22I'm like, are you serious? I don't really matter to me like that. I go on at some time, but I'm like, damn, all right. And I'm not taking away from, I'm not taking away from the people that's in the game doing that. But I'm saying, they playing the legacy game. We up late at night, because you ain't wearing viral. You up late at night, because the views ain't me, me, guilty. I'm up late at night, because the YouTube did this and didn't, I'm like, bro, why is it fun? I'm trying to crack the cold. Consistency, just keep putting it out there. That's all. If it catch up, it catch up. You're gonna see it, meant to see it. Keep putting it out there. Man, I did five, I'm in the road. I got 100, 100, 100. Why I'm getting 30 now? Now I'm up all night, I can't get no sleep. I'm getting up in the morning, I'm tired. I'm like, bro, you look tired. I am tired. Now I'm, I'm working. You ain't working. You're tripping. You're tripping. The legacy game. And I want you to understand something, y'all.

20:23I know I'm, you might feel like, damn, a trap, like you ran, you ain't. No, I just want to understand, like, we playing a small pocket of the game, because we ain't zoomed out enough to see how big the game really is. We not zooming out enough. We not zooming out enough. We, we hear. Instead of zooming out, seeing, y'all, this is how the game is. Imagine Mark Zuckerberg, when he created Facebook. We talk about a 20-year game. Look at him now. Now he got a fight for anti-trust. When something started in college. Now he, in his dorm room. Now he wanted the most richest men in the world. Can all of you say, got one of the most powerful platforms in the world?

21:26This, this, I want you to think about this. They zooming out. You don't got to have it all figured out. You learn, you crash, you learn, you crash, you learn, you crash, you, that's the legacy. Never give it up. That's the legacy. Consistency. That's the legacy. That's the legacy. I remember 1996, man, went a female by the name of Carol Ville. She put me on Jay-Z. 1996. I never forget that. She was like, bro, you need to check this out. I was like, what the hell? Who does do this? She was like, not as good. I don't listen to it. I'm like, nah, I'm a New Orleans dude. So I'm down south music. I'm cash money. No, this what I'm hearing. You in L.V. Miss, this what I'm on. What is this?

22:28I remember like around 97. She gave me this street just watching video that he made. This this short story. She was like, man, check this. She's their love with Jay. And I remember watching her life. Damn, this is creative. Billionanna. Plan the long game. Keep evolving. And we can listen to all the stories. All you saw is so, we keep buying the narrative because it's harder for us to believe that we can make it the right way than somebody. We looking for a game to be fair. That never meant to be fair. You just got to know how to move in a room full of vultures, industry shady and need to be taken over. You're going to need to keep planning a victim or you're going to take it over. And you ain't giving yourself enough credit for how much power you got because you keep playing small.

23:28We talking legacy capital right here. Your ability to endure. Your ability to every day make the deposits without withdrawing. Having faith. Having the vision to see what ain't there. Your biggest problem is you keep judging yourself and you keep judging your outcome by what you see. And you got to be delusional enough to not see what's there. You got to be delusional enough to disagree with the people who in front of you who telling you it can't be done. You got to be delusional enough to say, I'm going to get a hundred million. You got to be delusional enough to say, I'm going to be a billionaire. You got to be delusional enough to say that and then play the long game. Problem is you want to make the deposit and then you want to make the withdrawal.

24:28You want to make the deposit and then with things get real. When you feel like you need a break, when you feel like I deserve this, you want to make a withdrawal. And you ain't playing the game long enough. And it's those who play the game for the long term. It's those who were able to consistently stack those wins on top of those losses and not let the losses define them but let the losses give the meaning.
