I'm constantly setting myself new goals.
It does get kind of lonely sometimes.
I'm not at the point where money doesn't buy happiness.
I am at the point where I've kind of made it
and it's just, I feel like I've passed all the levels
and I'm just bored.
So I'm just constantly strategically setting new challenges
so I don't pretty much feel depressed.
Wherever you guys are watching this show, I would truly appreciate it if you follow or subscribe. You're the best. Alex Gonzalez here. How's it going, brother? Good, bro. Thank you for having me on. Yeah, all the way from Miami. Yeah, long trip.
Yeah, I saw you just did something with your car, right?
Yeah, for Christmas, what we ended up doing is we put Christmas lights throughout the whole half of the car.
And then we did a custom mount on the roof of the Lambo so the Christmas tree could be kind of standing up.
Wow. Did the cops pull you over yet?
No, no, luckily they didn't.
Luckily they didn't.
Because I'd be looking about if I'm on the highway.
Yeah, I know. It was pretty crazy because it held up the majority of the time. as soon as i went past like 80 miles an hour the tree flew off yeah it actually didn't flop it just like stumbled down oh that's funny how
many cars you guys see on your instagram you post a ton of you yeah i mean i think i have like four
right now four in my house and i have another two that i you know just gave to like family members
and you're only 23 23 yeah wow yeah. Wow, that's insane.
And these cars are expensive ones too.
Yeah, yeah.
I have top of the line cars.
Oh my gosh.
So how were you able to amass that amount of wealth at 23?
I mean, everything, I don't want to say kind of started happening recently,
but I'd say in the last year and a half
is where everything kind of started compounding.
I've obviously been a successful trader for three years,
but I didn't really start making big profits until about two years ago.
And then about a year goes where I learned how to actually manage money and how to organize it.
Yeah.
And then I just kind of did that for a whole year without spending anything.
And I look at the bank account, I'm like, there's so much money.
I just have to spend it, you know.
So even though we're in a recession right now, your trades are still doing well.
Oh, yeah.
Yeah.
They're better than ever.
Wow.
So that means despite the market conditions, you're able to figure out methods to make money.
Yeah, like day trading has nothing to do with recession.
Oh, really?
It's fully recession proof.
You're not involved in the market long term.
You're in and out whenever you want.
I make more money when the market goes down versus up because it's more volatile.
So I catch the sales down.
Wow.
That's so cool man and
how did you first learn this was it on youtube or did you have a mentor yeah so everybody goes you
know youtube university there's so much information out there on youtube but i pretty much did the
youtube trial never and so i kind of figured it out found somebody that i kind of connected with
and i just started following the strategy tab with my own personal stuff it. And then it turned into what I created today.
That's insane.
And you're in and out same day?
Usually I'm in and out for three, four days, maybe max a week.
But yeah, lately I've been kind of in and out same day.
And is there specific currencies you're trading?
So EURUSD, AUDJPY, GUAJ.
I mean, these are all, you know, the Australian dollar with the Japanese yen.
It just sounds a little bit, you know, freaky because they're a bunch of letters.
You know, it looks intimidating at the beginning, but it's really simple.
It's just one currency versus another currency.
Yeah.
And are you just looking at the charts or are you looking at the news too?
No, I never look at the news.
I'm mainly just a technical trader because, you know, at the end of the day, news, you're
kind of predicting of what, let's say, Powell is going to come out and say with interest
rates.
You kind of have an idea, but you never really never really know right it's just up in the air and so the guy comes out
and says the news versus technical trading you actually see the charts real price time data where
you can actually take execution based off of what the charts show you in that very second yeah a lot
of people take the news super seriously and then they go all out and then you know i mean that's
more of uh i'd say i don't want to say like bank way you get money but it's
more of like an institutional way where larger money is moved right i'm not moving hundreds of
millions of dollars within the day you get me that makes sense so it's for me it's a lot easier to
get in and out with the same day yeah what's the most you made in a day i think it was 127 000
but it was a but like i wasn't even my goal wasn't even to make that much that day.
My goal was just to make like 50K that day.
But I was in the position at one in the morning, Miami time.
And then there's just something called London session where London session kicks in and more volume comes into the markets at that time.
And, you know, I'm talking to my students.
I'm like, bro, should I hold?
Should I hold or should I close?
And I'm like, you know what?
I'm going to stick to my strategy. Just set and forget. I'm just going to knock out. And I'm talking to my students. I'm like, bro, should I hold? Should I hold? Or should I close? And I'm like, you know what? I'm going to stick to my strategy.
Just set and forget.
I'm just going to knock out.
And I woke up the next day and then my 50K had turned to like about 90.
And I'm tripping out.
I'm like, holy s***.
Wow.
So now we're on to something because my goal has always been to get 100K.
Yeah.
So then as soon as London session ends, the New York session comes in, which is now the new volume of money moving around in the markets.
And then the price has a retracement. I'm back down to like 30,000. And then there I'm like,
wow, you know, I'm rethinking my whole life, everything that I did, but only, you know what,
I'm going to stick to my strategy again. New York session came in, pushed it and we closed for like
125. And how much did you risk to make that? I think I risked about 25,000. That's it? Yeah.
Wow. So in Forex, you can make 5X on your money?
Yeah.
I mean, it just depends because obviously I have a big account.
So I risk just a certain percentage of that account.
I don't risk.
I don't go all in on my account size.
I'm risking anywhere from 1% to 5% of my actual account size.
Dang.
Yeah.
But my risk to reward ratio is extremely positive.
Yeah.
That's actually super safe because when you think of Forex, you think of really risky
trades.
Yeah.
1% to 5% is nothing. Nothing. nothing yeah because if you think about it overall the long
term period if you let's say you target 10 my goal is 10 a month but when you do that on a
10 million dollar account you're making a million a month exactly but people do 10 on a thousand
dollars which they just started their account and it's not realistic you're not going to become
extremely successful off of a thousand dollars on ten
percent you know it's a hundred bucks it's literally nothing so you have to take the same
ten percent approach to obviously a higher account yeah so how much did you start with when you
started like everybody i was working at dunkin donuts so i didn't have much i mean so i probably
had a couple hundred bucks maybe a couple thousand beginnings yeah yeah and you turned that into
millions i turned it into millions at year four.
So up to year two, I was completely negative.
I had lost about like $20,000.
And then on year two and a half, I got funded.
There's these funding companies out there that you just showcase your skill set.
If you're good, they give you money.
And then once you pass the valuation process, they fund you money and you get a certain percentage of the profits.
And I turned it where I made about like $20,000. And at the time that was a whole year worth of my expenses, you know,
left Dunkin' Donuts. And then I just became profitable ever since then. And you really
stuck through it going down 20 G's working a nine to five at Dunkin'. Yeah. And you still
had conviction to be able to do it. Yeah. What do you think had that made you have that strong
mindset? Mainly seeing other people that were actually having the results.
And myself, I was predicting the trades, but I just wasn't able to get into them.
For some reason, I could tell, okay, you know, price is going to go from point A to point B.
But I was kind of choking on the execution part because I didn't believe in myself.
I didn't believe in the strategy.
And then time and time again, I stopped getting so nervous
and just taking the execution and risking the trade.
And, you know, over time you become so numb to it
that you just take the trade and, you know, you end up having the result.
It's like if you're getting into a fight, you get me?
Like the UFC.
You know, obviously your first couple of times
you're scared of getting punched in the face.
But, you know, after a while you know how to dodge,
you know how to, you know, miss the punch.
So you know where the opening is.
Wow, that's super cool.
So when it comes to funded accounts,
how much percent gain do you need to achieve to get funding?
So some funding companies like Rocket21, they have 8%.
When I started, it was 10%.
A month?
A month, yeah.
So you have to get 10% in 30 days.
And then the second step is 5% in 60 days.
But now rocket is literally
eight percent unlimited time you can take as long as you want and the second step is five percent
you can take as long as you want so the game has gotten so much easier than to when i started yeah
and how much money do you need to be uh like trading with to achieve eight percent five percent
so anything really like you can put you know a thousand dollars of your own money or a thousand
dollars you could or you could you could buy a challenge let put you know thousand dollars of your own money or a thousand dollars
You could you could you could buy a challenge. Let's say a thousand dollars and with a challenge
Okay, I think it's almost 300k of money
So I bought when I started trading it was a 500 that's all I was willing to post 500 bucks
So for 500 bucks, you get a hundred thousand dollar account. What and then you pass it by that sounds insane
Yeah, but it's but it's hard because the rules are hard. Okay, so the rules are really hard
So, you know the obviously the pass rate is about 10%.
Oh, that's pretty low. So, you know, which makes sense. Cause if someone's making money,
someone has to lose. So it can't be high. Exactly. Yeah. But at the end of the day,
only the successful traders are going to make money. Right. So how many forex traders actually
make money? You think? I just say realistically, cause I see the numbers and i see the stats i'd say probably four to five percent that's low but but like if you think
about a four to five percent isn't low because because it's a world population like right now
let's say how many people go into the nba to get drafted let's say a hundred thousand people just
to put a number yeah how many people would get drafted only two rounds of 20 30 each so 60 what percentage is that yeah it's like one percent under that no way under one percent so the
odds of you becoming a successful trader are much higher than going to any professional route that
goes for football basketball soccer that's a good way of looking at it yeah i never thought of it
from that point of view yeah so obviously you know it's going to be low but it's accessible to more
people around the world yeah why do you think Forks gets such a bad reputation?
I say because the entry barrier is so low that it's so easy for any of these wannabe gurus just to come in and just kind of make a quick buck off of a course or make a quick buck off of a money management account.
And I hate it because it's about such a bad rep to the niche that i don't
even consider like when people ask me what do i do i just say i'm a day trader i don't even say
i'm a forex trader because i just want to avoid that awkwardness yeah it has nothing to do with
me like i know for sure it bothers me so much because they took advantage of the small entry
barrier and they took advantage that it's such a fast way to make money that you know
people sold it in a bunch of different ways and it just got bad reputation yeah people automatically
assumed scam if you tell them i don't know why it doesn't make any sense it's because of that whole
uh td fx winning yeah i mean i was part of that i got i got wrecked i got caught in that too so many
of my friends did so that i mean even before that the people were assuming it yeah because it was uh
mlm you know the multi-level marketing, like IML or stuff like that.
They would recruit people and not even teach them how to trade.
And that's what brought the big awareness to trading.
And obviously, they put people in certain platforms that didn't have the best market conditions.
And they got the scam reputation.
Now, are you at the point now where you can still lose or are you just winning from here on out?
No, I definitely lose.
I say out of 10 trades, I'll still lose four to five.
And then the ones that I win, they just weigh out the losses by three, four.
Wow.
Okay.
So you're still losing 40, 50%.
Easily.
Yeah.
Dang.
But that doesn't matter if you're making over 50%.
No, no.
I mean, if you think about it, I can literally have a 30% win rate
and I'm still profitable.
I can lose seven trades out of 10
and I'm still profitable.
Because let's say out of 10 trades,
I'll lose seven, risking 1%.
So it's just minus 7%.
But then I win three
with a one to five risk to reward.
So if you think about it,
I just made 5, 10, 15%.
So I just made back 7% of losses. And then I made
an extra 8% in revenue. Got it. So your wins are at a 5X rate. Average, I'd say it's anywhere from
2.5 to 5. Yeah. Wow. Yeah. So that'll outweigh most of the losses. I can literally have a 20%
win rate and I'm still profitable. That's so cool. And are you coaching people how to do this?
Yeah. I started recently about a year ago. It just kind of happened randomly because,
you know, you get bored as a trader. You're just home doing nothing. So I'm like, you know,
let me just start posting this stuff. And people just want to learn. And, you know, I kind of
brought a new wave, I think. That's why I've grown so fast and I've gotten such a big community.
Yeah. Because I'm just transparent. I literally say like right before coming into here, I'm like,
all right, guys, this is the trade.
This is where I want to get in.
And this is where I want to get out.
And that's it.
You got me?
So I do that every single day.
So your students are happy.
Very, very happy.
Very, very happy. That's cool.
And what platform are they trading this on?
It's all the same thing, MetaTrader.
So you analyze the trades on TradingView.
That's pretty much where you look at the pairs.
You look at the markets where you're identifying.
And then you actually
take execution on MetaTrader.
Yeah.
But MetaTrader is,
let's say,
like an Exxon.
That's where you could
just get gas from.
But you could go get gas
from Shell or whatever.
Right, there's other ones.
Yeah, so I just personally
use MetaTrader
because it's what
90% of the market uses.
Yeah.
Wow, this is so fascinating, man.
What are you spending
all the money on?
Well, honestly, I've been spending a lot of money right now on cars just moved into a new house
nice i bought watches i love watches travel a lot jets are very expensive you're flying private
only damn bro miami to vegas that's like 40 g's round trip will be like 45 yeah jeez so you're
printing money sometimes oh my god i've been three weeks without taking a trade.
Wow.
So I haven't made it.
So you're not even trading right now?
No.
I mean, there's no trade presents itself.
Like, there hasn't been any trades in the last year.
Oh, so you were super disciplined.
Oh, very, yeah.
Very, very, very.
Because that's a long-ass time.
Yeah.
I think on Thursday, so three days from now, it'll be one month since I haven't taken a trade.
Is that the longest you've gone?
It is the longest I've gone.
Wow. It's just because the more I get into trading
and the more experience that I get,
the less I need to trade
because I know that I'm just waiting for one good trade
that can make me five, six, seven times my risk to reward.
And that's it.
That's all I need.
I mean, think about it this way.
Think about trading like baseball.
You're just there standing in home base
waiting for the ball to come.
You're not going to swing at every ball that comes.
It's just pointless.
You're going to out throw your arm and you might strike out.
I'm literally sitting in home base and I'm just waiting for that straight ball at 50 miles an hour just so I can send it out at home run.
You get me?
I don't need to waste my energy swinging at every ball that comes my way.

And here's the episode, guys.
Most people don't have that discipline, dude.
No.
They want to trade daily, like even hourly.
And I understand them.
You know, I was there at one point.
It's because they need the money or they want the money right now.
I don't need the money right now, thankfully.
I've positioned myself to where I don't have to have it.
And I just set myself up for success with the best trades possible.
Wow.
So what are you doing for just the past three weeks, son, if you're not trading?
I made a s*** ton of money.
I cannot move a finger right now for the next 10 years and I can keep the latest.
Wow.
So what's that like on your mental health? Um, you know, I'm, I'm constantly setting myself new goals. So I, you
know, it does get kind of lonely sometimes. Yeah. And you know, that's, I'm not at the point where
money doesn't buy happiness. I'm not at that point right now. Cause I could still buy a Bugatti and
I'm sure I'll be happy, but I am at the point where I've kind of made it. And it's just, I feel
like I've passed all the levels and I'm just bored so I'm just constantly strategically setting new
challenges so I don't pretty much feel depressed do you get me that was me during the crypto bull
run last year dude I'd wake up make 50 100k a day and I'd feel like I mean I'm not trying to
sound like a it just feel like you know like a loss of purpose almost. Yeah, it's such a weird thing.
People watching this are probably like, we're crazy.
Yeah, it's such a weird.
It's like we won't be able to explain it.
Somebody would have to be able to experience it to actually understand it.
Yeah, the more we try to explain it, the more we look like assholes.
Exactly.
Yeah, no, it's one of those things.
But what was it like gambling with Dana White?
Dana was lit, bro.
I did not expect for him to be that cool.
You know, I'm hanging out around with Steve and stuff.
And not going to lie, the guy's a beast.
I was, because he pulled up at four in the morning.
And I was already falling asleep at the table.
He pulled up at four?
Bro, he pulled up at four in the morning.
And he pulled up at four in the morning after being up two days in a row for UFC
and, you know, being there for the fights.
And then he had just lost half a mil the night before.
Damn.
So Steve was on a mission to turn 10K to half a mil to give to Dana,
which he did it.
Guy's a savage.
And then, you know, Dana pulled up at 4 in the morning,
and then they kept gambling.
I'm like, dude, what the **** is going on?
I'm like, bro, what's going on?
That is insane.
So Steve's still gambling.
Hello?
Bro, Steve's a beast.
Steve is a monster.
How did you meet him?
We have a bunch of mutual friends.
And, you know, out in Miami, I'm always there in Brickell.
And just mainly mutual friends.
Nice.
Yeah, he was in Miami for a few years, right?
In that penthouse?
Yeah.
That's cool.
And you gamble with him?
Do you bet your own money?
Yeah, yeah.
I consider myself a professional gambler.
So I'm very strategic when it comes to gambling.
Is there certain games you won't play? I'll play anything because i know at the end of the day the casino
is going to win so i come in with the mindset i'm like this is what i'm ready to lose so i'm not
attached to the money at all smart some people are very attached no like i can go in with 10 20k
and i'm ready to lose it i'm like i'm i'm going for the experience and to have fun yeah that's
just my cost to have fun i'm not there to make money off the casino that's a good mindset
man because some people are spending like their last pennies yeah whatever but i get them you
know it's their only source at the end of the day and they feel like they need the money yeah and
when somebody needs money and they need it now people would do really bad things for sure get
it done have you ever won gambling in the casino?
I think I've been gambling for four years and I don't think there's been one night where I've lost it.
Damn, it's that bad?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Some days you win, but I guess not when you're with Steve.
I've played backjack, baccarat.
I've gone to poker games, yacht poker games.
You can name it.
I have never left with a dollar in my pocket.
Poker is like, at least you can, that's more skill-based.
It definitely is.
But I can't be the guy that I win the pot and then I leave.
I feel like it's just unethical to the game.
That happened to my last poker game because I have them here.
And this guy doubled up and left.
See, that's so unethical.
I'll never invite him ever again.
I kick him out of the group chat.
Yeah.
Everyone was pissed. Yeah, yeah. To me, that's so unethical i'll never invite him ever again i kick him out of the group yeah everyone was pissed yeah yeah that's it to me that's super unethical it's like dude like obviously you know we're all here to make money but it's a little you know what i mean it's just
it's just they're just like unwritten rules for sure yeah you don't want to be that guy
i'm not going to name him because he probably watches this but we all know that one dude for
sure are you traveling a lot right now yeah i've been
traveling a lot i've gone to latin america a lot went to brazil over there with steve
nice uh you speak spanish yeah i'm cuban so my family's cuban um went to colombia europe ibiza
spain london new york damn pretty much everywhere you've been killing it i love traveling really
you learn a lot about culture life i agree the only thing I don't like is the airports and the whole time shift.
It kind of messes things up.
Yeah, it really, really messes things up.
Especially as a trader, that must be tough.
It's so confusing.
Waking up at like 2 a.m. some places.
Super confusing, super confusing.
Because it's just, I'm not in sync with the market,
and I'm not in sync with time right there.
It's just super confusing.
Yeah.
How's the Cuban food in Miami?
Amazing, bro.
I heard it's good. I love it, it i love it i tried it once actually it was
really good where'd you try that i forgot the name if you said it i was in brickell
might have been it was fire dude i don't remember it was a few years ago
but is that your favorite cuisine to eat yeah i anything cuban i'm ready to go yeah dude i love
food have you been to cuba never
really never is your family from there yeah my dad actually came to miami in a raft no way in 83 or 82
holy it was like seven days a seat dude that's baller yeah he's a gangster what does he think
of what you're doing now he must be no he's tripping out like my family my family they
don't really know who i am social media wise, obviously.
Because they just barely, they barely still know how to use an iPhone.
So they're not in tune with where the world is right now in terms of technology.
So I just don't inform them too much because they simply won't understand.
Wow.
And at the beginning of my journey, the lack of their understanding,
their lack of understanding for what I was doing affected what I had going on for myself because I was doubting myself.
You get me? I'm taking on this whole new journey, this whole new niche, and I'm ready to give it 100 percent.
And my family is not supportive because they just simply don't understand.
And their lack of understanding can't let that affect where I'm trying to go.
But when you pulled up in the Lambo, that changed.
Oh yeah, they tripped out.
They tripped out.
Damn, that must have been tough though, not having their support.
It was pretty tough.
Yeah, I'm not gonna.
Yeah.
And I feel like that's actually a common issue with people looking to go into whatever business
venture, entrepreneurship, trading, their parents.
I mean, I get them, you know, I put myself in their shoes and I understand them because
they came to this, you know, they flew.
They literally immigrated to another country to just work, become successful and give the family the best life possible.
Now they have this crazy son that's trying to click a couple of buttons on the computer and trying to make something out of it.
And I get them because what they want is the best for us.
Yeah.
Right.
And I understand that.
But sometimes their vision of what's best for us is not what is the actual best situation for us to succeed.
Yeah, different time period too.
Exactly.
What they think is best was best for them at the time they were our age, but now it's shit evolves quick, man.
Who knows what our kids are going to be doing?
Yeah.
Were you an only child?
I have a little sister.
Okay.
Yeah, I was an only child.
So for my mom, it was dropping out was.
You dropped out? Yeah, of college. Really? Did you drop out i never went oh you never went damn okay i mean i did go
i just never showed up yeah i mean i i was registered i think i went for a week and then
i just never went back wow you just never like school no no it was never for me yeah i wish i
dropped out of high school honestly really yeah college was a bit late How long were you there before you dropped out?
Like a year
Oh, okay
Just partied hard
So you got the party experience?
Got the party experience
I don't know how people do that for four years
Because after the year, I was like
Burnt out
It's boring, I mean, I don't know
Are you a big partier?
Not really, bro
You know, I've never gone to a high school party
I've never gone to a college party
Damn, you serious?
Yeah, I've never done that
I'm more of a private party guy, if okay like uh like i'll bring like five six friends
to my house and like 10 girls and that's it but like not create a scene with 50 60 people that i
don't even know right and i won't go to a club and share a table with people i don't know really i
just i just don't i don't know man i don't feel comfortable it's so weird dang so you're very
private despite having a following.
Yeah.
That's interesting.
Wow.
I'm not a club guy, dude.
To me, it's so awkward.
You go to the club and everybody's just there on their phone or scrolling through it.
As soon as the bottle comes out, they put the flash.
They put it down.
The table's like 10 Gs for the bottle.
It's just, I don't know.
To me, it's all fake.
Everyone's there just for the video.
And that's a lot of Miami nightlife. So you're kind of avoiding all that. Yeah, I avoid it as much as I don't know. To me, it's all fake. Everyone's there just for the video. And that's a lot of Miami nightlife.
So you're kind of avoiding all that.
Yeah, I avoid it as much as I can.
Wow.
That's interesting.
I have so much more fun in my house.
Dude, people get sucked up in that nightlife out there.
It's expensive, bro.
You could see it on their face.
They age like crazy.
Oh, yeah, big time.
I know people that live there in their 30s having gray hairs.
It's bad, dude.
I can imagine.
You're up till 5 a.m partying and drinking you
could go out every day in miami and not even notice what day it is out of the way yeah because
space is open every day right and 11. have you been to 11. i've been there yeah i went once my
phone died it was traumatic traumatic experience couldn't get out of there that's funny um what
else do you do in your free time so So mainly lately I've just been team building.
I have a group of traders that I kind of connect with a little bit and honestly just giving back
to the community. I don't know if you saw, but I gave away a Lambo. No, I didn't. What? Yeah,
I gave away a Lambo. How did you pick the winner? It was rock, paper, scissors. No way. Yeah,
yeah. You picked two random guys to play? So we did a community event where we have a free
trading competition.
And then the people that ended up in the top 10 of the leaderboard,
they would come out to Miami and they would do the rock, paper, scissors.
That's sick.
You'll be surprised how hard it is to give away a Lambo.
I don't know how Mr. Beast does that every other month or however long it is.
It's actually very hard.
We literally picked the top 10 contestants to give away the Lambo.
And we had to go down the
list probably for like another 15 20 people because people weren't replying to emails
weren't replying to their phone number what they weren't filling out a lambo yeah bro it made no
sense replying instantly that's what i'm saying and then we paid for the flight paid for the hotel
paid for our comedies for everything what and then still only six people showed up no i'm not even
kidding bro i wouldn't even fly them out i'd just be like you're it's on you man do you want the everything. What? And then still only six people showed up. No. I'm not even kidding, bro.
I wouldn't even fly them out.
I'd just be like,
it's on you, man.
You want the Lambo.
So we did a whole event
where, you know,
we put the names in random,
you know, cups.
It's on YouTube.
We have a YouTube video on it.
And then they just pick the names,
rock, paper, scissors,
and then they got it.
That's dope.
So you want to be like
the Mr. Beast of the 4X space?
Yeah, I've done a lot of things
to be like him.
You probably get it from Steve, too.
Yeah, Steve.
He's giving a s*** all the time.
Steve is crazy, man.
Yeah, he needs to get back on YouTube, man.
Yeah, they're trying to see what they can do to get him back on YouTube.
Yeah, that was so messed up, dude.
He was doing so much good for the world.
Doesn't make sense.
He was such a net positive, and they banned him.
And obviously, it hurt him, bro, emotionally.
Oh, for sure.
You put so much time and effort into a platform,
and all these ideas, and the community, and out of nowhere, just a flick of a button like emotionally. Oh, for sure. You put so much time and effort into a platform and, you know, all these ideas and the community.
And out of nowhere, just a flick of a button, they're going to remove you.
I don't think it's fair at all.
Yeah, dude.
He was putting in millions of his own money.
Trust the guy goes all in.
So messed up, dude.
What are you giving away next?
So we might do another Lambo now in February.
It's a whole logistical mission you have to set up.
But we might do something where it's more accessible
to other people.
Because the mission
we gave away to Lambo
was that now this guy,
he had to get insurance.
Insurance is probably like $2,000 a month
and he couldn't pay for it.
So we had to pay for it.
So we might give something
like Tesla's,
something where people
are actually accessible
and they're going to use
on their day-to-day life.
Yeah, $2,000 a month is a lot
if you don't have money.
Yeah, it's a mission.
Yeah.
Who's a dream celebrity you want to meet
dream seller that's a great probably dan bazarian okay that's pretty doable dude he's in vegas i
think i could do it yeah steve's probably already talking yeah yeah for sure yeah i know uh my
videographer films for him really yeah i'll try to line it up. Oh, if you can set that up, I'll give you a Lambo, bro. Yeah. People used to look up to him, man.
I mean, I still look up to him.
Even after the fall off?
I mean, the falling, you can't blame him, bro.
You know what I mean?
You know how you felt with making 50 to 100K?
Imagine how that guy felt, bro.
Right.
He's making.
You know what I mean?
Imagine how that guy felt.
I think what goes up comes down.
Exactly. At a certain point. And think what goes up comes down. Exactly.
At a certain point.
And he was number one of everything.
When you're at the pinnacle, you can't stay there.
The feelings that guy must have been going through are probably it.
There's no comparison.
Yeah, that's true.
I'm trying to think if I have one.
I don't know.
I've met a lot of people, but I don't have any fanboy celebrities.
Yeah, that's just the first thing that came to my mind i never thought of that question you know yeah as a kid i used
to think of that with like leonardo de cabrio but these days i don't even care like i see there's a
lot of people that come into vegas and i don't even care anymore did you end up meeting him or
no dan yeah um at his mansion before we all got really yeah it's like before even came out okay
everyone at the party got it
at his house his old ignite house yeah nice yeah like 200 people the one in la not the one here la yeah yeah that's the house yeah that was the house dude you know what to answer your question better
probably the celebrity that i wanted to me is that the dan bazarian of that time right there
you go that makes more sense that that'd make more sense yeah okay that i can buy both but i'll still
line it up for you, bro.
Yeah.
No, yeah.
